Chapter 349: His Majesty's Painting

The Chinese army battalion.

At this moment, Han Xin was also confused.

Due to Zhu Xia's lack of experience in cavalry combat, Han Xin wrote to Wang Bu a few months ago, hoping to gather some talented generals to jointly study the tactics of cavalry combat.

Han Xin soon received a reply from the imperial court, and he was planning and acting according to the plan, only these eight short words.

However, Han Xin couldn't imagine that a few months later, the imperial court directly sent him a batch of equipment that he couldn't understand.

He can understand both light cavalry and heavy cavalry, and if he doesn't understand this, this general will no longer be a general.

"General, this is the main battle weapon of the cavalry, called the Huanshou Knife, which means that there is a ring at the head of the handle, and a ......rope can be tied here," explained a craftsman from Luoyang.

Naturally, the new equipment could not have changed its shape and material, but most importantly, its use had also changed a lot.

The craftsman quickly took out a rope, folded the rope in half, and then put it on an iron ring.

Then hold the knife in one hand, and with the other hand, pick up the rope and wrap it around the wrist, tightly binding the whole hand to the knife.

Finally, the remaining section is stuffed directly through the gap, and the palm of the hand only needs to be pressed with normal force.

After the demonstration, the craftsman continued: "This thing can connect the weapon to the hand, and it is not easy to fall off when riding a horse, if there is any problem, just let go of the hand, and shake the knife a few times at will to detach from the hand." ”

"Good stuff!" After reading this first weapon, Han Xin immediately sensed the benefits of this weapon.

I immediately took it over and experienced it myself.

With the iron ring on the handle as a connection, even if you occasionally let go of your hand, the knife will not fall off.

As for saying that the strength on the battlefield is not as good as that of a human knife to be vibrated and flying, it is even more impossible now that there is this rope.

And the blade has a slight arc, which is not large.

Han Xin slashed at the air, the weight of the blade made people feel it very much, and the iron weapon was so sharp that the air couldn't help but roar.

Although the blade was heavier, Han Xin felt that he seemed to have less effort than before.

Putting down the ring-headed sword, Han Xin set his sights on the second weapon again.

This big guy is three meters long, the top seems to be equipped with a sword, it is fifty centimeters long, and the tail is a sharpened iron thorn, about ten centimeters long, and the middle two meters and four are the body of the spear.

After the craftsman's explanation, Han Xin understood the usefulness of this thing.

Light and heavy cavalry dual-purpose carbines.

Although the style is the same, there is a lot of mystery on the inside.

The full weight of the carbine pistol of the light cavalry was twenty-three catties, which was about ten catties in later generations.

This bit of iron makes a weapon, and it is a three-meter-long weapon, how to look at it makes people feel a bit like a tofu scum project.

However, this is not the case, the carbine used by the light cavalry, the knife on the head and the thorn on the tail are all fine, but in the middle of the barrel, there is a layer of iron wrapped on the outside, and the thickness is about three millimeters.

Of course, it is not enough to just use hollow nature, so the craftsman added a harder and stronger wood in the middle to increase the strength of the gun.

And the gap between the heavy cavalry and the light cavalry is here, two catties of iron is more, and the thickness of the gun body has also changed to five millimeters, except for this difference, everything else is the same.

In the end, Han Xin set his eyes on the last weapon, and this weapon was also the one that made him feel the most puzzled and puzzled.

The length is the same as that of the carbine, which is three meters.

However, the length of the blade alone takes up two meters, and the handle occupies only one meter of length.

And this should be considered a knife in the true sense of the word, because he only has a single edge, and the thickness of the back of the knife makes people feel numb when they look at it.

The craftsman pointed to this strange-looking knife and said: "This knife is called the horse chopping knife, weighing forty-two pounds, made of the best iron material of the Han Dynasty at present, to the body and down, all are iron, the user needs to carefully select, must be tall, strong, powerful, this knife in addition to using more labor, can easily cut off the horse's legs, the soldiers who used his forbidden army said, only used five or six percent of the strength, it is easy to cut off the person, if it is from top to bottom, go all out, can split the person in half." ”

Han Xin was dumbfounded when he heard it, this guy is so strong?

However, the craftsman smiled slightly, as if to say, where is this?

So he continued: "We have tried any kind of armor that the Han currently has, whether it is plate armor or scale armor, it is stuffed with meat and bones, cut it off at the waist, try it a hundred times, the internal bones are broken a hundred times, the plate armor is tried a hundred times, if it is cut to the front, it will be broken a hundred times, if it is cut to the side, the number of bone breaks is not so much, but it will leave a very serious injury on the waist......"

What a mother......

With this thing, armor or something has become a supporting role?

The most important thing is that this supporting role is also uncomfortable to wear, which affects sensitivity.

Anyway, it's a death, so it's better not to wear armor and be flexible.

Maybe you can still dodge it with your coquettish position.

Han Xin subconsciously stepped forward and picked up this horse chopping knife.

It is very weighty, and the weather in autumn is not cold, but you can still detect a cold breath.

Lifting it with one hand, even Han Xin felt a little difficult.

As for combat, it is even more impossible.

"It's so heavy, and I'm wearing armor, I'm afraid the war horse can't stand it, right?" Han Xin asked suspiciously.

At this time, the captain of the forbidden army in charge of the escort waved his hand to everyone.

This part of the secret is in his hands, and even the craftsmen who made it do not know what it is going to be used for.

Anyway, when they were in Luoyang, they had been shocked several times.

And the handle of the knife is also engraved with their names and units, so say, hehe......

And that's not all, all the new weapons have steel stamps on them.

"General, this is infantry equipment." The lieutenant spoke.

"Infantry equipment?" Han Xin was stunned, as if to say that you are teasing me?

I have 50,000 cavalry here, and you got me infantry equipment?

What do you mean, let me get off my horse and play foot combat with the Huns?

However, the captain ignored Han Xin's doubts and continued: "After Your Majesty received the general's letter, he began to think about this matter, and then he had this weapon. Later, after some experiments, soldiers equipped with horse chopping knives needed to wear scale armor, so as to ensure maximum flexibility on the premise of ensuring protection. ”

As he spoke, he took out another piece of paper from his body, which was not large and slightly yellow.

"This is a formation map drawn by His Majesty himself, and the general can keep it, but he needs to give the subordinate a receipt according to this number."

Han Xin nodded, and then set his eyes on this formation map.

Wang Buxing's painting skills are very funny, and you don't have to count on him if you want him to paint vividly or something.

A rectangle is located at the top, on which are written a few words, three or five rows of swords, followed by another rectangle with archers.

Then, a third rectangle appeared, this one was a little larger, with a few words written in it, and I looked at it.

Then there is the fourth rectangle, infantry or cavalry.

Then there are two rectangles on the left and right sides, with archers written near the middle of the formation, and cavalry on the outermost sides of each side.

Of course, Wang Bu didn't forget to give this formation a name, the Sharp Arrow Formation.

Looking at this abstract drawing, Han Xin looked at the forbidden army captain with a confused expression.

It seems to be saying that even if I am a peerless genius, I will have to go through several actual battles to practice how to use such a formation map.

By the way, are you playing too far?

But he didn't dare to say this, so he could only ask depressedly: "Does Your Majesty have any other explanations?" ”

"There is ......"
