Chapter 61 Funeral Number
Yan Fei expressed no pressure on this, and he didn't care about the whole world's army coming together. As for Emperor Chongzhen's little thoughts, he knew very well, but he just smiled it.
These seemingly prominent names are just good. If Yan Fei really believed these things and worked hard for Emperor Chongzhen, he would be a fool.
After accepting these reputations and receiving silver rewards, Yan Fei focused on summarizing the previous battle.
The first thing I confirmed was that I shouldn’t have hid in the city before, but went out to go to the field to fight with the Qing soldiers. I originally wanted to ambush but I didn’t expect that I would trap myself instead.
Zhangjiakou said it was a city but actually had no city wall. When it encountered a large-scale raid of Qing soldiers, it caused major casualties because it was too close. This was equivalent to giving up the advantage of its weapon range and power, which gave the Qing soldiers the opportunity to fight in close combat.
Another thing is that you have too much confidence in the flintlock rifle, and not equipping soldiers with armor and melee weapons is also a big failure. If soldiers wear armor and melee weapons, they can definitely reduce casualties to a large extent.
After understanding the problem, the next step is how to solve it. After intuitively understanding the difference in combat power between yourself and the Qing soldiers, the future battle will definitely be based on field battles. For urban offense and defense, you should also choose a city protected by tall walls.
The armor and melee weapons made Yan Fei hesitate. After all, he had read a lot of information that showed that in the musket era, except those armored cavalrymen, the musket soldiers did not wear any armor.
However, after careful consideration, Yan Fei decided to equip the musketeers with defensive equipment. However, it was not those steel armor that had very complicated maintenance and had very heavy defenses and might not have a good defense, but directly put on the bulletproof vest.
The bulletproof vests produced in the modern world can even block bullets. It is very easy to deal with bows, arrows, swords, guns, etc. in the late Ming Dynasty. Moreover, the bulletproof vest is simple to maintain and lightweight, which is very suitable for musketeers. Wearing a bulletproof vest and wearing a storm helmet is a perfect sense of déjà vest in a modern army.
The neat and majestic military appearance can not only greatly improve morale but also intimidate the enemy. The most important thing is that Yan Fei himself likes to see this kind of army full of modern atmosphere.
I have collected some information back to the modern world. The first thing I learned is that the body armor and explosion-proof helmets cannot be sold directly, but can only be exported to units or exports. Secondly, the price is absolutely very expensive.
Of course, the ordinary ones that are thick and heavy when worn are cheap, and there are ones that cost thousands of dollars. But the imitation product is not only very poor in effect, but also very heavy in weight, but also not good-looking. Yan Fei likes the regular body armor of Kevlar ceramic tiles.
This kind of regular bodyguard weighs about eight kilograms, which is very relaxing for the soldiers. Of course, the price is expensive, almost the same. However, he had already recorded this matter in his mind. None of these foreigners had a good thing, so they got together to cheat their money. They must pay back this matter!
Yan Fei thought quickly in his mind and soon had an idea.
After the Ming Dynasty time and space dealt with the Tartars in the north, the Japanese pirates in the east, and the pirates in the east, he would let the Westerners of the Age of Discovery see what the power of modernization is.
At the same time, you can directly kill to the hometowns of those Westerners, plunder all the precious works of art back to the modern world and sell them to their descendants!
Thinking of this, Yan Fei laughed and even thought of buying a plane to fly to Europe in time and space in the Ming Dynasty to rob.
After the loan was processed, Yan Fei took out a sum of money from his overseas account and ordered 10,000 sets of bulletproof vests and storm helmets from China in the name of Guinea in Africa.
There is no way he doesn't have enough money, so he can only do so much first.
Only China, the United States and the Netherlands can produce advanced body armor in the world. Among them, China's body armor has the best quality and the lowest price, occupying most of the body armor market. When Yan Fei buys goods, he must take care of his own country.
After buying the first batch of bulletproof vests, Yan Fei thought of the cannon fodders in the punishment camp again.
Although these people were used as cannon fodder, cannon fodder was valuable and could not be discarded at will. Therefore, Yan Fei ordered a large number of armor parts from many domestic processing factories. He then sent them to Ming Dynasty time and space for assembly in the name of export.
As for swords, guns, shields and other swords, there was no need to produce and order them in the modern world of tool control.

"Rise the gun!"
"put!"
A team of elite musketeers selected raised the flintlock rifle in their hands and pointed it at the sky at an angle of 45 degrees, and pulled the trigger together to fire a gun to pay tribute.
This is the suburb of Beijing in the Ming Dynasty's time and space, where Yan Fei was holding funerals for the soldiers who died in battle on the battlefield.
During the previous battle in Zhangjiakou, the total number of wounded people who died on the spot and failed to survive after the war was 891. Today, these people will be buried here together. This area has been directly transformed by Yan Fei into a national cemetery, specifically used to bury soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country.
As for the original owner of the land who was thrown away by Yan Fei's silver, if he dared to complain, a team of soldiers would come to the door with full arms to have an interview. In this case, no one dared to say anything more, but to sell the land to Yan Fei.
Today is the day chosen by the Feng Shui gentlemen in the artillery unit to be buried. White snowflakes slowly fell in the dark sky, and high-end audio worth tens of thousands of yuan was playing the low and melodious funeral numbers.
The soldiers in military dresses slowly placed eight hundred and ninety-nine high-end coffins covered with the golden dragon flag into the tomb in a row of gunfires. Each coffin was placed on the soldiers' military uniforms during their lifetime. The entire scene was solemn and dignified.
After all the coffins were placed, Yan Fei, wearing high-end military dresses specially ordered from the clothing store, walked past the tombs one by one, and placed silver-inlaid hero medals on the military uniform.
The touching music, the solemn environment, the white snowflakes and the uniformly dressed army, and the families who were crying and sad. All of this made the people who came to watch the ceremony feel unprecedentedly strongly shocked!
Many people came to watch the ceremony today, from royal relatives to high-ranking officials and officials, they were all directly "invited" by Yan Fei. As for ordinary people, they were watching the funeral. But as the funeral progressed, the hustle and bustle gradually dissipated, and everyone's faces showed extremely complicated emotions.
In the past, if someone in the Ming army was killed, at most he would burn some money to spend it. Many times, even the corpse could not be retrieved. Unless the family was rich and powerful or the officers could get the opportunity to be buried.
From court officials to ordinary people, everyone looked down on soldiers. They thought they would die if they died, and no one would pay attention to their funerals.
Until today, they felt the strong atmosphere of the military funeral for the first time!
