Chapter 19: The Qin Soldiers

"Oh, it's back?!" Zhan Bai was taken aback, this is undoubtedly a little good news recently, "How is the harvest?" ”

"All I can say is that everything is going well. The www.biquge.info caravan successfully got on the line with the prince of Qin, and not only that, but this time, it was also exchanged for a lot of weapons unique to Qin through trading. Childe Jun also smiled.

"Ordnance?" Zhan Bai was stunned.

In the countries of the Spring and Autumn Continent, armaments are strategic materials that will not be easily traded, not to mention that the two sides are only trading for the first time.

It's going too well.

I have to say that Zhanbai's suspicious temperament flares up again, but he didn't open his mouth in the end, so as not to upset Gongzijun's interest.

"Yes." Gongzi Jun nodded, "Among them, there are 2,000 Qin crossbows, and 50,000 arrows with armor and wolf teeth. There are also five hundred Qin swords, all of which are of the highest grade. ”

As mentioned above, the Qin State lived in a bitter and barren land, so there was an extreme shortage of materials. And because he collected the remnants of the Gongyi family, he was sanctioned by the Mo family, and any military equipment produced by the Mo family was blocked and strictly forbidden to enter. For various reasons, the living environment of the Qin State in the Spring and Autumn Period was the worst, and it was not only necessary to keep an eye on the suppression and invasion of the Qi State at all times, but also to solve the hardships and livelihoods of the people internally.

But under such circumstances, the Qin people, with their unyielding will, embarked on a road to a strong army, relying on not only the Qin people's own efforts, but also the support of the public loss family.

The ancestor of the so-called public loss family is the famous public loss class, that is, Luban. To put it bluntly, it is precisely because of his existence that he has the current technique of mechanism, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the ancestor.

And the grievances and hatreds between the public loss class and Mozi, the first giant of the Mo family, can be written into a novel of tens of thousands of words, and its excitement can only be described as breathtaking.

Later, with the feathering of the public loss class, the public loss family fell into a situation where there was no successor for a long time, and its status was gradually overtaken by the Mo family.

As the contradictions between the two families deepened, a great war finally took place thousands of years ago. And the final result is obvious, the public losing family was defeated, and since then it has been in a slump, and under the pursuit of the Mo family, it almost did not destroy the door. And at the most critical moment, the remnants of the Gongyi family finally persuaded the Qin State to give asylum, and there was the current situation.

The competition between the public and the Mo family is actually more due to academic competition, but the influence of the two sides is too great, so there is that great war.

Different from the balanced development of both offense and defense of the Mohist technique, the reason why the public losing family will lose is not only the decline of the underlying power, but also the heavy attack and light defense of its organ technique.

The Gongyi family is better at crafting offensive weapons and mechanisms, but in defensive weapons and mechanisms, it is an extremely deadly weakness. Even after thousands of years, it almost suffered a catastrophe, and the public loss family that has developed to the present still does not change its original intention.

Therefore, in the Spring and Autumn Continent, the weapons of the Qin State are extremely famous, while the armor and other defensive equipment are much criticized.

Among the many weapons of the Qin team, the most famous ones are undoubtedly bows and crossbows.

The bows and crossbows of the Qin State are divided into three categories in terms of range and power. Among them, the city-breaking crossbow is the most powerful, at least at present, there is no wall that can protect against its arrows, and it can be described as a destructive weapon for attacking the city. Of course, although its power is fierce, it is expensive to build, and secondly, it is huge, so the already poor Qin State has only built less than a thousand bodies so far, and most of them are placed on the border with the Qi State.

The second is the Qin crossbow that Gongzi Jun just mentioned, this is a single long crossbow, the power is also not to be underestimated, it is said that the arrows it shoots can easily penetrate the true body protection of the true primeval realm, once it hits the target, its lethality can completely tear the monks of the true primeval realm to pieces. Of course, the strengths of this Qin crossbow are so prominent, and its flaws are also extremely obvious. One of the most criticized was the rate of fire, which allowed even the most skilled soldier to fire no more than five arrows in a quarter of an hour. In addition, the process is extremely cumbersome, and it is not easy to make, which eventually leads to less than half of the people in the Qin * team who can be equipped with this kind of Qin crossbow.

It is precisely because the advantages and disadvantages of this Qin crossbow are too obvious that it is necessary to formulate special tactics for it. There is also the famous three-stage attack of the Qin State, which maintains the density and lasting combat power of the arrow feathers to the greatest extent.

Now, Gongzi Jun's caravan can bring back 2,000 Qin crossbows, which is enough to describe the harvest as extremely rich.

The last type of crossbow is the lightest, called the Banhua crossbow, which is said to be the size of the palm of the hand. The rate of fire is fast, the lethality is also considerable, and the level of refinement almost represents the highest level of the Gongyi family. However, like the previous two types of bows, the Banhua crossbow also has a disadvantage, that is, the range, which is only a hundred steps. And its cost can be chased to break the city crossbow, and in the end only a small amount of equipment can be used, and the owners are all at the level of generals, as a daily defense.

If the bow and crossbow are the most famous long-range weapons in the Qin State, then the Qin Sword is a sharp weapon for hand-to-hand combat, and it is also the most equipped weapon in the Qin army.

Qin Jian was also divided into three categories according to the specifications, named Qin Que, Changhong and Zhuoxin.

The Qin Que sword, as long as one zhang, is the most commonly used long weapon on the battlefield, and its shape imitates the ancient famous sword Juque, and it is improved according to the body characteristics of the Qin people. The whole body is made of black iron, which is a specialty of the Qin State, although it is huge but not heavy, the sharpness is insufficient and the big skill is not worked, and the heavy slashing and light thorns are not a good match for the single-handed fighting on the rivers and lakes, but it is very suitable for fighting on the battlefield.

The Changhong sword, three feet and six inches long, is different from Qin Que, but it is extremely sharp, so that its sword body is extremely light and flexible, and it has become a veritable soft sword, which can be tied to the waist when not in use, but it is also extremely convenient.

Because of this characteristic, Changhong Sword pays more attention to the sword's sidetrack. For a swordsman whose sword walks in a straight line, its greatest use is only ...... Committed suicide.

In addition to the above two types of swords, the Searing Heart is a dagger-like short sword. Crafted from the hematite taken from the well-known Flame Mountain in the Qin Kingdom, this hematite, as a famous genius treasure, is extremely corrosive because it is born from a volcano, and the fire poison contained in it is not fatal to the monks, but it will bring heart-burning pain, and in the end, it is difficult to exert the strength of thirty percent under the distraction. Hence the name.

However, the burning heart has the same shortcomings as the class of Chinese crossbows, one is short, so it can only be used for self-defense. Secondly, hematite is extremely rare, which also greatly increases its value. In the Qin State, people who are not nobles simply do not have the ability or qualification to wear them.

"With these two thousand Qin crossbows, half of them can be used to equip the six rates of the prince, and the other half will be used to win over those low-level officers. Sir, do you think it's good for students to deal with it like this? Childe Jun asked.

"Great goodness." Zhan Bai nodded.

This distribution has undoubtedly greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the six rates of the prince. At the same time, it can also buy people's hearts, and more importantly, it is not afraid of causing trouble.

As we all know, the power of Qin's crossbow lies in the overwhelming and long-lasting rain of arrows. Shizi Liu's more than 1,000 people can barely meet this requirement through a three-stage knockdown, but as for the other 1,000 Qin crossbows, once they are dispersed, their power will be greatly reduced, so they are not afraid of being obtained by people with bad intentions, so as to backfire on themselves.

"As for the six hundred long swords, of which Qin Que has four hundred, Changhong has two hundred, and even two burning hearts are included, but the students don't know how to distribute them, and I ask Mr. to teach me." Gongzi Jun, who was greatly encouraged, also knew how to do it in moderation, and this sound like he was asking Zhanbai for advice, but in fact, it was not without the meaning of giving Zhanbai convenience.

Don't forget, Zhan Bai is a thorough sword cultivator, and there is a sword cultivation sect behind him. For them, the appeal of the sword is undoubtedly enormous.

"My suggestion?" Zhan Bai glanced at Gongzi Jun meaningfully, but everything was silent, only to see him smile slightly, and after a little muttering, he said slowly, "Gongzi can select four hundred brave warriors from the army to be subdued in the future, and with Qin Que, it will be a ruin to destroy the city and uproot the village on the battlefield." As for Changhong, it is not suitable for the army, but it can be promised to the sword cultivators of his cronies. And the burning heart...... I'm going to be cheeky and ask you for one, haha. ”
