Chapter 228: Bow and Arrow Troops
Tang Zhangwei watched Bai Cunxiao go from being beaten on his back to taking the initiative to attack, and watched Bai Cunxiao personally lead a cavalry around the back of Su Zihe's artillery. โ miscellaneous รท รท insects โ
When Su Zihe's troops found out that Bai Cunxiao's people were coming, he immediately ordered the artillery to change formation, but before the artillerymen with sweating on their foreheads woke up, these people had already been cut down to the ground.
Where are the people of Jin Wuwei brought by Li Maozhen?
Didn't they come to support Suzi and go with them?
It turned out that Li Maozhen's gang was blocked by Wei Youji and his people.
Wei Youji himself has long led the archery unit, and they also have a special operations unit, and the intelligence department is constantly fighting the Jin Wuwei to delay their movements.
Wei Youji's archery troops, together with the officers and soldiers of the Intelligence Division, and the special forces, they shot arrows from afar, and slashed with knives at close range, causing those Jinwuwei to fall to the ground one after another.
Su Zi and his artillerymen watched their men being slashed and killed, but they couldn't do anything. Many years later, as long as Su Zihe recalled, he would feel that this surprise attack was a dream, and when he woke up from the dream, he found that the enemy he thought he could easily destroy turned out to be a hot potato, which was a very bad feeling.
Tang Zhangwei experienced the process from great sorrow to great joy, and at first Tang Zhangwei felt that his general's mansion was coming to an end.
After all, the special forces assembled by the artillery technicians of the Eastern Roman Empire led by Su Zihe are too powerful.
Su Zi and his artillery Eastern Roman technicians and the gang of people under them, they hollowed out their intentions to eliminate Tang Zhangwei.
During the whole preparation process, these people went through hardships, and now they can finally start assassinating Tang Zhangwei.
In the beginning, these people achieved good results, and they were close to success, but in the end they failed ruthlessly.
Su Zihe was in pain, but he knew that he couldn't lie down just now, so he quickly retreated.
Bai Cunxiao led his subordinates, together with Wei Youji's people, to mend the artillery technicians of the Eastern Roman Empire troops and the corpses of the Jin Wuwei one by one.
When Bai Cunxiao saw that many of those people had beards and chest hair, he said: "These people are Europeans, I think they are like people from the Balkan Peninsula, it seems that the emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire, Leo VI, obeyed the general on the surface, but behind his back he was with Tang Xizong, and wanted to give General Tang Zhangwei a bad medicine." โ
Wei Yuki said: "Then shall we report to the general?" โ
Bai Cunxiao said: "Of course, I have to report to the general." โ
When General Tang Zhangwei knew about this, he was not surprised, he just said lightly: "I know." โ
Returning to the general's mansion, which was bombed beyond recognition and was in shambles, Tang Zhangwei felt dizzy.
Tang Zhangwei ordered the General's Mansion to be temporarily fenced off, and he moved to Mingdao Villa to live.
Chen Qinglong was directing his subordinates to practice swordsmanship, and when he saw General Tang Zhangwei, he hurriedly knelt down.
Tang Zhangwei hurriedly said: "Hurry up, you and my brother don't need to be so vain." โ
Chen Qinglong said to General Tang Zhangwei: "I heard that someone wants to assassinate the general? โ
Tang Zhangwei said: "A little traitor is not to worry. โ
After living in the Famous Knife Villa, Tang Zhangwei practiced knife skills with Chen Qinglong every day.
At the same time, Tang Zhangwei also asked his subordinates to transport the captured artillery of the Eastern Roman Empire to the Famous Knife Villa, and he ordered the European technicians in the Tang Dynasty to disassemble the cannons together with the craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty, and then draw drawings.
At the same time, the local refiners of Datang were also summoned, and they began to think carefully and study. According to Tang Zhangwei's order, these craftsmen and technicians first unified the manufacture of artillery, and then broke down these manufacturing processes after the artillery was officially completed.
With the help of engineers from the European continent, the guns were finally copied.
Wei Wan'er, who moved from Chang'an City, touched her big belly every day, and Wei Youji and Sai Hongfu accompanied him every day.
Sai Hongfu's belly gradually bulged, and she began to exude the glow of motherhood.
Wei Youji commanded the training of the bow and arrow troops, and according to Tang Zhangwei, the bow and arrow should not be wasted.
Although the firearms that have been modified by the technicians of the Eastern Roman Empire are very powerful, the troops of the Tang Dynasty are still obsessed with those cold weapons.
After all, compared with the battlefield full of gunpowder, the bloody and fist-to-fist fighting seems to be more suitable for the character of the Oriental.
Of course, Tang Zhangwei would not give up those firearms, because once the Tang army led by Tang Zhangwei could not occupy an absolute advantage over the overseas colonial provinces in terms of strength, they would definitely rebel.
Now, Leo VI of the Eastern Roman Empire is just secretly stumbling up, and as soon as the army of the Tang Empire declines, they will definitely start a full-scale war against the Tang army.
Wei Wan'er said: "Why didn't the general quickly cut through the chaos and destroy Leo VI of the Eastern Roman Empire?" โ
Tang Zhangwei said: "As soon as the cannon goes off, there are ten thousand taels of gold, and as a military general of a country, you can't just care about the military account, regardless of whether the conquered local people obey or not. Think about it, how many tribes in the territory of the Eastern Roman Empire, although their language is gradually assimilated by us, but before it is completely assimilated, they are still estranged from us, if we kill Leo VI and rashly replace an emperor, will he be able to share our minds? โ
Wei Wan'er said: "It's still the general who has a long-term view. โ
Tang Zhangwei said: "I just think more thoughtfully. Think about it, even if we can really establish a new Eastern Roman emperor who is the only one who looks to us everywhere, once the people in the Eastern Roman Empire are against them, how can we deal with ourselves? โ
Wei Wan'er said: "So, you not only appointed the provincial governor of the Tang Empire, but also ordered the emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire to continue to be the ruler, so that you can benefit from both sides, but the local people have to pay taxes twice, which is really bitter for them." โ
Tang Zhangwei said: "The people are suffering, the people are suffering, and the people are suffering for a lifetime." All I can do is loosen the grinding disc that is tied to the common people. At the same time, there should be fewer wars, and those wars that are not necessary will lead to the waste of wealth. โ
Wei Wan'er said: "The general's hard work, I don't know who in the world will understand?" โ
Tang Zhangwei said: "I don't want to be famous through the ages, I just want to be worthy of my heart." โ
Wei Wan'er's face suddenly deteriorated, and her feet were dripping.
Sai Hongfu, who was standing next to him, said, "Not good! Madame's amniotic water broke. โ
Tang Zhangwei said: "Quickly call the midwife of the hospital and prepare to deliver the baby to my wife." โ
Soon, the midwives and doctors at the hospital arrived.
In the past, it was a matter of life for a woman to give birth to a child, but now because Tang Zhangwei promotes doctors and medical treatment, the danger of this woman giving birth to a child has become much smaller.
