Chapter 368
"Ahem. Since His Majesty the Emperor has said that he will not pursue the severance of the alliance with Li Wenyuan proposed by the lords, he will instead throw himself into Li Yuan's camp and form an alliance with Li Yuan. Then Xue Mou will put this matter aside here, but please don't forget that you have already contributed to this matter, and you are my courtiers of Great Qin. When encountering things, it is natural to face me Daqin, there is no doubt about this, this is a matter of position. Here, I just want to ask you one thing, which is stronger or weaker than the army under Li Wenyuan's tiger and wolf army under Li Yuan? I believe that in the minds of your Excellency, these two armies can be said to have their own strengths, regardless of whether they are high or low. Let's start from this perspective and compare the strength and weakness of these two armies. ”
So Lord Xue also pulled out the comparison between the two armies and explained it, and told the civil and military officials in the court to know: "The army under Li Wenyuan is basically all equipped now, those new weapons with extremely high lethality, in the words of their own people in the Western Regions, that thing is called a musket. At the same time, those soldiers who were not equipped with muskets were all wearing heavy armor and armed with strange knives. Your lords may be relatively unfamiliar with this Mo Dao, or you haven't seen the real thing, so you don't have a practical concept of this thing. Then Xue is here to introduce you a little, so that you adults know the horror of this strange knife.
If you ask when exactly this kind of thing was born, then even the most knowledgeable celebrities today may not be able to say. However, this kind of Mo knife was originally used by the royal forbidden army of the current dynasty, and this alone is enough to show how much this weapon was loved and relied on by the royal nobles at that time. So how fierce is this weapon? This is recorded in the history books, but unfortunately there are only a few:
Selected burly and powerful men, holding this blade in both hands, face the armored and rapidly charging horses. When the war horse charged closer, he waved the Mo knife forward, and the blade slashed vertically in the direction of the horse's head. At this time, looking at the blade of the Mo knife, there was no trace of collapse. Then wipe the blood stains on the body of the Mo knife with a cloth, and then under the sun, it is still dazzling and bright as new.
Therefore, this kind of Mo knife is specially equipped for the royal forbidden army, specially used to protect the safety of the palace, whether it is from the enemy army, the rebel army or the invasion of the northern nomads. That's the horror of this strange knife.
Let's think about it, my lords. The charge of the war horse is still helpless against this kind of strange sword, let alone these soldiers under our command who are only wearing bright light heavy armor? As far as I know, Liang Shidu's army did not launch a counterattack in the face of the attack of Li Wenyuan's army. Instead, all the counterattacks launched were all defused by the soldiers of the Modao Army at the outermost part of the formation. The soldiers of the Liang Division's army, who bravely attacked, all turned into dead ghosts without corpses in the end, and were trampled under the feet of Li Wenyuan's army. It is precisely because of the tragic deaths of these people that they frightened away the strong men brought by the Liang division around them, otherwise, even if the soldiers in the army under him Li Wenyuan were all three-headed and six-armed Da Luo Jinxian, there was no need for the Liang division's army, after all, the number of Li Wenyuan's army was too small.
Moreover, the formation of Li Wenyuan's army is particularly simple, that is, the so-called musketeers are placed in the middle of the large array. On the periphery of the musketeers, there was a thick human wall composed of three layers of soldiers of the Modao Army. This is the formation used by Li Wenyuan's Western Regions Army in battle. Don't look at the simplicity of this formation, it can even be said to be simple, but it is the soldiers of this three-layer Mo Sword Army, which is enough to make anyone who dares to attack the big array pay the price of blood.
In addition, Li Wenyuan's army also contains a large number of cavalry composed of excellent military horses bred by the Shandan military horse field, and these cavalry also use a kind of sword similar to the Mo knife, but it lengthens the grip, reduces the thickness and width of the blade, and makes its weight distribution more symmetrical, which is very suitable for use on horses. With the help of the impact of the horse, when this new saber cuts into the human body, it is as smooth as a hot knife cutting animal oil. These cavalry were specially designed to break up enemy formations. At the beginning of the battle, these cavalry will take the lead, and then scatter the enemy's originally tight and thick formation, and then gradually advance from the infantry phalanx, slowly and step by step to clean up the messy mess that was charged by the cavalry. The tone of a battle victory was set.
These are Li Wenyuan's troops, so let's take a look at Li Yuan's army. Compared with Li Wenyuan's fancy things, Li Yuan's army is clean and much more traditional. It is a regular army composed of the most traditional infantry and the most traditional cavalry. However, in terms of training, it is far stronger than the training intensity of ordinary armies. Moreover, the generals under Li Yuan's command also have some capable people, many of whom are accustomed to fighting, but there are also many roosters and dogs.
These people specially chose to infiltrate the enemy camp during the period of confrontation between the two armies and assassinate the enemy generals. So as to fundamentally solve the danger of the enemy army. After all, no matter what, no matter how elite the army is, it is a mess of sand when it leaves the command of the general. But this move failed in the face of Li Wenyuan's army. As you all know, there is a very well-known Tyrant organization in Li Wenyuan's army. This owl organization is divided into military owls who specialize in working for the army, and night owls who specialize in spying on all kinds of intelligence. Under the defense of this sales organization, presumably those chickens and dogs under Li Yuan's subordinates will not be able to take advantage of it.
I don't need to say much about what happens when the traditional combination of infantry and cavalry meets Li Wenyuan's army, after all, there are too many precedents now. Presumably, all the adults here will know a lot about this, even more than Xue, so we won't go into too much detail here.
The comparison between Li Yuan's army and Li Wenyuan's army is roughly like this. Which is stronger or weaker, I believe that in the hearts of all adults, there is already a fixed number at this time, right? After all, if Li Yuan could and was sure to defeat Li Wenyuan's army, then how could he watch Li Wenyuan destroy the Liang division and occupy several county capitals that Li Yuan had expanded to the north?
