Chapter 209: See the Steam Crossbow Again
Here, it must be the burial place of Yelu Yanxi!
Yelu Yu saw that he chased all the way from Zhongjing in the Liao State to here, not only was he not tired, but he was getting more and more excited!
The enemy is right in front of you, this time look where you run!
In fact, Yelu Yu saw that he had the ability to take the life of the enemy along the way, but he deliberately tricked Emperor Tianzuo in the spirit of cat and mouse. always left a way for the enemy to survive, which allowed Yelu Yanxi to run here.
When he arrived at this place, he was not ready to play anymore.
What was caught and released along the way was not only the bad taste that Yelu had seen, but also the strategic requirement of the battle.
By chasing Emperor Tianzuo, he can take advantage of the situation to seize the land of Liao.
The land area of the Liao State is very large, and the Khitan people's way of life is still based on hunting, which leads to the relatively scattered Khitan population. Wanyan Aguta believes that instead of looking for Khitans to kill one by one, it is better to let them take the initiative to gather together.
Jeruyu was impressed. Sure enough, it's the hero! This strategy is so clever that you will never be able to think of it if you change it.
He strictly followed Kim Taejo's instructions. This road was loose and tight, so that Emperor Tianzuo had enough time and opportunity to send messengers from all walks of life to recruit Khitan reinforcements who could come.
It is precisely because of this that Yelu Yanxi has survived until now. But finally the time has come when the mountains and rivers are exhausted. The Khitan combat forces west of Zhongjing in the Liao State came all the ones who could come, and after they came, most of them were killed by the people of the Jin State.
Now these 5,000 people are the only elite in Liaoxi - they have fled here and have not yet collapsed, they are elites.
Yelu Yujian was originally going to clean up Emperor Tianzuo today, but he didn't expect the Western Xia army to suddenly appear in front of him.
This made Yelu Yu stunned! This Yelu Yanxi is not completely mediocre, and he still has such tricks. No wonder he has been defeated but not defeated, it turned out that he had left a little hope for himself and his subordinates.
The Western Xia Iron Harrier is famous. As a high-ranking official of the Yelu clan in the Liao State, Yelu Yu naturally has a clear understanding of the enemy's strength.
If the current leather room army is allowed to challenge the Iron Harrier, in the case of an equal number of one-on-one people, the Liao State has no chance of winning.
But now Yelu Yujian is no longer from Liao, he is a general of Jin. What he brought under his command was not the leather room army, but the Jin Guotie Futu.
Jin Guo grew up in the white mountains and black waters, under the cruel oppression of the Liao State, and lived in such a harsh natural environment, those who survived can be said to be superhuman. Even though both the Iron Float and the Iron Harrier are heavy cavalry, the people inside the Iron Shell are different.
Based on Yelu Yujian's observations and actual troops, he was very convinced that the Iron Float could defeat the Iron Harrier. Therefore, for the appearance of the Iron Harrier in front of the battle, the newly promoted commander of the Jin State is not worried.
He was worried about something else. Ponxi Army.
It's so uncomfortable. The Liao State Pi Room Army once suffered a big loss from the Poxi Army.
The Poxi Army is a special class of troops in Western Xia.
The number of the Ponxi army was not large, only more than 200 people and camels. It is a camel army.
In this plane, ranged attack weapons such as trebuchets and bed crossbows have been widely used, especially during sieges and charges.
The Tanguts were inspired by this, and they made a perfect combination of trebuchets and camels. Trebuchets have the advantage of being destructive, but they are very large and bulky. So the Tanguts came up with the idea of making it smaller and making it a pocket-sized version to shoot at the enemy.
There is also the problem of movement, the camel of Western Xia happens to be a mobile machine with a good load, and the two natural humps are just enough to be used to fix the trebuchet. So the Tanguts came up with the idea of using camels and trebuchets to create a mobile long-range attack force. This is the Poxi Army.
To put it bluntly, the Poxi Army was a long-range attack weapon of the Western Xia army in field sports warfare.
If on weekdays, the armies of the Great Song Dynasty and the Great Liao encountered the Western Xia army equipped with the Poxi army, and the fight would be extremely disadvantageous. Because Song and Liao did not have long-range weapons that could be so easily deployed.
They have trebuchets and bed crossbows, but these things are mainly used for siege and fortification, and it takes time to set up in the field, but war will not wait for you.
Although the Poxi army was small in number, it was an extremely important position in the Western Xia army because it was a long-range weapon that could be quickly put into battle.
Now Li Qianshun of Western Xia has sent out all the Poxi troops, which shows that he attaches great importance to this old man.
Yelu Yu looked at the enemy in the distance, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
If it was a weekday, he wouldn't be able to help the Xixia Poxi Army. Even if you rush into battle, you will have to pay a heavy price. But today, I can't help you splash the joy army.
I also got a new gadget - a steam crossbow.
Yes, it was the steam crossbow that Qin Mu made. Zhongjing of the Liao State was quickly broken by the Jin State, and everything in the city became the spoils of the Jin State.
Yelu Yujian is a native of Liao, and Zhongjing is his hometown, so when he went home this time, he went to the armory first. He is a general, and he values his own strength more, so he doesn't care about gold, silver, jewelry, or anything, as long as he is ordnance.
Many steam crossbows have been made, but the Liao Kingdom is in chaos at this time. Emperor Tianzuo is not doing his job, he is either hunting or on the way to hunt all day long, and it is rare to come back once, and he was broken in Zhongjing.
Xiao Fengxian was even more busy eliminating dissidents all day long, so that his nephew could ascend to the throne.
In the entire Liao State, there are almost no generals who can really organize resistance. Yelu Yu was a famous general, but he was forced to surrender to the enemy.
All that was left was a Jerod stone. But Yelu Dashi is not in Zhongjing.
So there was a powerful steam crossbow, but no one could pull it up to the city to use.
This is a cheap thing to see.
Yelu Yu had never seen such equipment at all, but this was not difficult for him, the people from the armory were there, and he would understand if he grabbed it casually and asked.
He was overjoyed when he saw the terrifying power of the steam crossbow with his own eyes. It's a artifact! With this thing, wouldn't it be invincible to fight all over the world!
This time, he brought two steam crossbows with him after Yelu Yanxi.
This thing is too heavy to move, otherwise he could have brought more. And it was precisely because of such a heavy burden that the march speed of the Jin army's army was also slowed down a lot. Otherwise, Emperor Tianzuo really wouldn't be able to escape here.
This is already the border of Liao.
Jerod commanded: "Ignite." ”
It's not that he wants to smoke, it's that since the steam crossbow is powered by a steam engine, the boiler must be boiled before it can be used. So light the fire.
The array was neat, separated by four or five hundred meters, and the two sides faced each other quietly.
It was the calm before the war, and there seemed to be blood condensing in the air.
However, this tranquility did not infect Yu Liyan at all. She pointed to the screen and said, "Brother-in-law, the people of Jin Guo robbed the steam crossbow you made for me!" The slave doesn't care, the slave wants his brother-in-law to snatch it back for me, that's my thing. ”
Qin Mu also scratched his head very much.
This thing, how did it come around and appear here. The steam crossbow was designed and manufactured by Qin Mu to help the Liao State fight the Jin State, but he never expected that the creation would make people, and now the Jin State will use it to fight the Liao State.
What's going on! Qin Mu really felt that this Great Song was too weird. Nothing went well.
Either way, this threat must be removed! The range of the steam crossbow is too long, and it is a serious threat to oneself. Especially now that the Guards Regiment is not around, he does not have long-range output firepower at all.
The so-called county officials are not as good as the current management. It's the same on the battlefield. It's that you have planes, artillery and tanks at home, but now you don't have them, and you only have a knife in your hand, then I can have a huge advantage with a bow and crossbow.
The steam crossbow, a weapon that is not embarrassing or embarrassing, is now the overlord on the battlefield, no matter who it shoots, it is all a death.
Yelu Yanxi won't die here, will he? The more Qin Mu thought about it, the more he felt that there was such a possibility.
According to historical records, the Three Kingdoms met in Jiashan, the Jin State asked Yelu Yanxi, and the Western Xia did not give it, and there is no detailed document on how to solve it in the end, but it is true that Emperor Tianzuo did not die here.
But at that time, it was not Yelu Yujian who led the troops, but Wanyan Zongwang - the second prince, or Wanyan Zongbi - the fourth prince Jin Wushu. If these two people lead the team, they can still spare Emperor Tianzuo's life, but Yelu Yu leads the team, then it is difficult to say.
And there is certainly no such thing as a steam crossbow in history.
If there is no steam crossbow, the Jin army may not be able to please the Western Xia army equipped with long-range weapons, so it seems that it is past to sell the Western Xia a face and spare Emperor Tianzuo.
Not anymore. With a steam crossbow, the Jin Kingdom was completely unafraid of Western Xia. The steam crossbow is against the simple trebuchet, and it goes without saying that the steam crossbow will win.
In this way, will Emperor Tianzuo still live?
In fact, Qin Mu didn't care about Emperor Tianzuo's life or death at all. Even if he was Yu Liyan's father, Qin Mu didn't take him seriously.
Yelu Yanxi even killed Yu Liyan's own mother, and even killed his own son, this is not a person.
But Qin Mu's basic strategy in the Great Song Dynasty was to not change history as much as possible! Since Emperor Tianzuo did not die here in history, if he brought a brand-new steam crossbow because of his appearance, which caused Yelu Yanxi to die in Jiashan, would this be a good thing or a bad thing for him?
Qin Mu couldn't deduce the development after that.
In that case, let's keep history!
"This Emperor Tianzuo is really shit luck." Qin Mu couldn't help but curse secretly.
He killed Yu Liyan's mother and brother, but in the end he asked his daughter to save his life. The world is so ridiculous!
"All forward!"
There was still some distance from the battlefield, but Qin Mu was not worried. The steam crossbow was designed and manufactured by him, and it really took a short time from ignition to putting it into use.
Alas, poor steam crossbow, I don't know if I've seen blood or not. This is also the first handicraft made in his two lives, and it will be destroyed in his own hands in a blink of an eye.
For a while, Qin Mu was a little reluctant.
Otherwise, it's good to seize it and play with it!
"Second son, do you want this steam crossbow?" Qin Mu turned his head and asked if the fold could be saved.
"Brother-in-law, you scold me!" Zhe Kecun immediately got angry. He had seen the steam crossbow as well, and the principle was clear at a glance - he had seen more than one steam engine.
But Qin Mu wants to give himself the steam crossbow, isn't this a show that he looks down on himself.
Even if you don't give me that ***, give me an assault rifle, what kind of thing is a steam crossbow.
He's getting a little angry. Co-author: We are all primitives in your eyes, and we only deserve to play such backward things?
Qin Mu didn't expect the second uncle to be angry, he was just reluctant to let his craft be destroyed.
He hurriedly changed his words and said, "Second uncle, I didn't mean that. I mean, in the future, we will build a new world, a new country, and then some of the things in history need to be preserved, and we need to build a museum and put them in it for future generations to visit. This steam crossbow is also the first thing I made on my own, I mean you can keep it for me for the time being. After all, it's too far to pull to Wujiazhuang. ”
When Zhi Kecun heard Qin Mu say this, he turned his anger into joy. It's not about looking down on us.
He is a man, so he is easy to fool, but Zhe Meifeng is not so easy to fool.
Obviously, the brother-in-law treated his brother as a rag. This is not good, it is his own brother.
No, a steam crossbow must not be wanted. Besides, this was made by my brother-in-law for the girl, why keep it at home. Absolutely not. Yes, I want good things, that *** is too big and not fun, let the slave think about it, what other fun things does my brother-in-law have?
Qin Mu didn't expect that his casual words could cause so many disasters.
If he could understand this, he would immediately understand the phrase: silence is golden!
