Chapter 43 The prince and the prince will have a kind of Xiangning?!

In the down, it is undoubtedly the first knife!

The former army of the Han Empire used the ring-headed knife and created the myth of a Han Dynasty as a Wuhu!

Chen Yan did not hesitate to choose the ring head knife, believing that the power of the pure steel ring head knife was enough to make the enemy frightened.

The shield and spear phalanx were used by Chen Yan to prevent the cavalry that he might face.

The main thing is that once the spear phalanx is formed, it can be directly replaced with flintlock pistols in the future and used as a musket array.

As for long-range strikes, Chen Yan had never considered such things as bows and trebuchets, and his targets had always been firearms.

In this era, although the Song Army's divine arm bow is against the sky, the cost is also quite high, and it takes at least three to five years to make a divine arm bow, and Chen Yan can't afford to wait for these three to five years.

Besides, the time required to train an archer and a musketeer are not at all the same level.

A good archer needs at least several years of training, and a musketeer claims to be a peasant who can be brought into battle after three months of training.

Trebuchets too, whether it is power, rate of fire, or movement speed, there is no way to compare with artillery.

……

Lin An returned to Qinzhou City, so he went straight to visit the Seed Master Dao, and conveyed Chen Yan's request to the Seed Master Dao.

"Dashuai, that traitor doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, he gave his subordinates 5,000 men and horses, and his subordinates went down to kill him!"

Before the Seed Master Dao could speak, one of the generals beside him couldn't help it, stood up and hugged his fist towards the Seed Master Dao and said.

"That's it, I don't take our handsome in my eyes! The handsome man was willing to recruit him to give him face, but he dared to refuse and turned against him. ”

“……”

Many generals shouted one after another.

The expression on his face remained unchanged, and he looked at Lin An and said.

"Mr. Lin, in your opinion, what is the strength of that traitor, and how many men do I need if I want to destroy him?"

Lin An had a contemplative look on his face, he thought of where he had gotten a tray of gold from Chen Yan, gritted his teeth and said.

"Commander, it seems to his subordinates that those traitors are vulnerable, as long as the army arrives, it will definitely be defeated, and the people of Anping will also welcome the king with pot pulp."

Listening to Lin An's words, the Seed Master Dao fell into deep thought, his old face was cloudy, and his right hand was wielding his beard.

The traitor is vulnerable, so he doesn't have to worry about the traitor affecting him to mobilize a large army to attack Liao!

So should we take this group of traitors seriously? Is it to directly attack the army, or to recruit peace, or to ignore them?

They are just rampant in the countryside, they have not captured the city, and the impact is not great, is it really worth going into the army to encircle and suppress themselves?!

As for the encirclement and suppression of the imperial court army that failed twice in a row, the master of the cultivation really didn't take it seriously, he was born in a family of generals in the northwest, and he still had a good idea of how erosive the imperial court's army was.

Except for a small number of elites, even if those van soldiers let them be people's husbands, they would be too late!

And those small number of elites are the private troops of these generals, although they also accept the dispatch of the imperial court, but the real right to speak is in the hands of them.

The military salary is paid in full, the weapons and armor are all complete, and the food and drink are raised, and these private armies are the foundation of the gate.

"Mr. Lin, you should go and talk to the traitor about Zhao'an first!"

"The imperial court is about to go north to conquer the Liao State, and it doesn't care about those little thieves, and when the army returns victoriously, it is just a backhand to exterminate them."

Master Dao said, brushing the beard on his chin.

"When the court exterminates them, I am willing to be the vanguard!"

Ding Kangyan stood up and said.

"Okay, when the imperial court conquers the rebels, the old man will appoint you as the vanguard of the army!"

The seed master Dao was full of smiles, and a kind of arrival began to discuss the matter of the imperial court to collect an army, and the entire northwest had to move.

All the generals in the northwest must send a part of the private army out, and the army of the family of the plant, the army of the family, and the army of the Yao family must all be mobilized.

The whole Great Song has to move!

The forbidden army of Kaifeng City, the border army of Hedong of Hebei, the western army, and the box army from all over the Central Plains must be transferred!

On the Western Army's side, it is the Seed Master Dao who is in charge!

He mainly draws the main force of the family army, after all, in his opinion, this is a war that must be won, and it is better to let his own family go up to earn military merits than other generals.

After all, the Liao State has been beaten by the Jin State and is about to be destroyed, so he doesn't believe it, can he still lose?

As for the Zhe family and the Yao family, let them eat their farts!

"The army is about to set off, according to the news from the city of Tokyo, the army led by Tong Xiang has all the food and grass, and will set off in mid-February."

Seed Master Dao said.

"Our side is also going to speed up, the front army is about to leave, and we can't lag too far behind."

“……”

The entire Qinzhou, Qinfeng Road, and even the entire Great Song Dynasty have already moved, and a large amount of grain and grass materials have begun to be called.

With a holy decree of Zhao Ji of Song Huizong.

The entire Great Song Dynasty began to assemble hundreds of thousands of troops, ready to grieve and subdue Yan Yun.

Many soldiers embarked on the journey with the ambition of subduing Yan Yun, but they did not know that what awaited them would be a point of no return!

One general is incompetent, exhausting the three armies!

Tong Guan's battle has buried I don't know how many good sons!

……

Kaifeng City!

Flowers are blooming, people come and go, rubbing shoulders and heels, it's not lively!

The streets are lined with shops, and the merchants are all dressed decently, and there are many servants in front and back.

The streets are clean, the shops are open, and there is laughter and joy in the streets!

The whole beautiful scenery of the prosperous world!

But behind the prosperity, there are social contradictions that are difficult to hide.

Snowflakes are falling in the sky, the temperature is plummeting, winter has not yet passed, and the cold wind that does not know when it will come is still blowing and the thinly dressed pedestrians are shivering.

The streets and alleys were full of ragged beggars and homeless people, huddled in the corners one by one, shivering in the cold wind.

In the high-ranking households, there is still the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras, and the fragrance of wine and meat wafts out far and wide.

Countless beggars at the door were begging, shivering in the cold wind, fighting over a piece of food that had been thrown on the ground, even dying.

A portal that seems to be separated into two worlds!

Heaven on one side, hell on the other!

On the one hand, he is extravagant and wasteful just to satisfy his greedy desires, but on the other hand, he is struggling on the edge of life and death, and a human life is not even worth as much as a piece of cooking cake.

Although the Song and Song dynasties were a period of high prosperity for the commodity economy, the country was prosperous, and even the germ of capitalism had appeared.

But it is also a dynasty with the largest gap between the rich and the poor, the largest number of uprisings, and the most frequent uprisings, except for the Mongol Yuan and the Manchu Qing!

During the Song and Song dynasties, land was highly concentrated, and the officials, landlords, and gentry, who accounted for less than 1 percent of the country's total population, occupied nearly 90 percent of the country's land.

Countless people are struggling between life and death!

If it weren't for the developed commodity economy of the Two Song Dynasty, which gave the people a way to live except for the land, perhaps the two Song Dynasty would not have been able to turn south, and they would have been overthrown by the people's uprising.
