Chapter 63: Means
After taking the stage, Yan Zhanshu stood in the middle, facing the 100,000 Baibo troops under the stage, stretched out his hand and raised the nine-section scepter high, the orange-yellow light made the old people of the Yellow Turban Army blink their eyes violently, and they could hardly believe that they could still see this Taiping Dao artifact: "This is the nine-section scepter of General Tiangong!" ”
"The sky is dead!" Yan Zhanshu shouted loudly, and Mrs. Guo followed closely and raised her arms and shouted: "Huang Tian should stand!" The other five generals also shouted, and then the White Wave Army in the audience also shouted loudly with the Yellow Turban Army among them, shouting more than ten times, and the White Wave Army was also assimilated into the Yellow Turban Army. A good propaganda slogan is effective, and I believe that in this mental state, without skills, the combat effectiveness of the Yellow Turban Army can be improved. Yan Zhanshu looked at the Yellow Turban Army in the audience and thought secretly.
The shouting gradually stopped, and Yan Zhanshu spoke again: "I, Yan Zheng, after killing Liu Guanzhang by Julu, and avenging Cheng Yuanzhi, the commander of Youzhou Qu, was accepted as a mantle disciple by General Tiangong, and passed on the nine-section scepter, and now I have comprehended the mystery, and I am willing to cut a peaceful and prosperous era for our Yellow Turban Army with a meager body!" ”
"Meet the Great Sage!" Mrs. Guo once again set an example and turned around to bow down. The five generals bowed down in turn, and the 100,000 White Wave troops in the background all bowed down, and the military flag of the White Wave Army was slowly lowered, replaced with a piece of yellow cloth, with eight big characters on it, the front is "Yellow Sky Standing", and the back is "The sky is dead", which also announced that the White Wave Army officially transformed into the Yellow Turban Army, and since then, as a political force, it has officially stepped onto the stage of the competition for hegemony!
Mrs. Guo should say that they still sincerely obey Yan Zhanshu, the new great sage and good teacher, in addition to the personal soldiers in their own headquarters, they drew a thousand strong soldiers from their respective veterans and sent them to Yan Zhanshu's subordinates, and then formed a new Yellow Turban Army and began training.
However, after watching their training carefully, Yan Zhanshu found that he was still too optimistic. The Yellow Turban veterans were only divided into sword and shield soldiers and pikemen, or as peasants, they did not know how to draw a bow and shoot arrows at all, let alone have the opportunity to learn horsemanship, which naturally limited the composition of the Yellow Turban Army. Even if they are ambushed with bows and arrows, they will inevitably suffer heavy casualties. Only a small number of rangers and absorbed Huns knew how to ride, and some of the hunters knew how to lay traps and archery. The relatively sturdy man put on the iron armor obtained by breaking through the county government before, and formed the advanced class of Yellow Turban Warriors - Iron Armor Soldiers. And as long as these arms do not form a scale, their combat effectiveness cannot be reflected at all, and they are even inferior to the Yellow Turban Army on a large scale.
For the Yellow Turban Army, Yan Zhanshu originally had an idea in his heart, to increase morale through his own commanding skills, and to improve his strength through the Nine Scepters, then these 40,000 Yellow Turban Army will instantly transform into a top-level special army, and they can be beaten against the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, which has passed through the flowery world of Luoyang and has begun to rot and deteriorate. Of course, there will be quite a few casualties. If he had had had had been given a little more time to complete the class reconstruction, the casualties would have been smaller. After discovering that the copy could continue this situation, Yan Zhanshu had already regarded the 100,000 Bai Bo Army as his important property, and naturally did not want them to suffer heavy losses.
Finding Mrs. Guo, Yan Zhanshu asked about the situation of the bow and crossbow: "General Guo, we have captured some long-range attack weapons such as big yellow crossbows and two-stone bows before?" ”
Guo Tai said bitterly: "After our Baibo army raised troops, we did capture a few cities and opened the armory among them, but the harvest was indeed tattered iron armor, and the slightly better ones were divided by several generals and equipped with their own soldiers." There are also 200 large yellow crossbows, but the cost of crossbow arrows is very high, and we don't have enough craftsmen to settle down to build them—there are less than 2,000 of them in existence, and there are quite a few two-stone bows, which are 4,000, but the same problem is that there are not enough arrows. As the original commander of the Baibo Army, Guo Tai's ideas were very close to Yan Zhanshu, and he also considered forming various arms and using them in a centralized manner.
"That's a real problem." Yan Zhanshu also felt depressed, the situation of the Yellow Turban Army was even worse than he imagined. "General Guo, you train first, and then I'll think about it."
Saying goodbye to Mrs. Guo, Yan Zhanshu was thinking about a solution to the problem while moving forward slowly, and suddenly heard a thunderous noise in front of him, and couldn't help but take a closer look. Squeezed into the crowd and listened, but it was Xu Huang in order to convince the public, respectively, with the rangers to compete in martial arts, with the Yellow Turban wrestlers, and with the Huns in the cavalry battle, the first two have already won, and now they are fighting with the Hun warriors in the Hun on horseback, and the soldiers are shouting for the two warriors.
In the eyes of the onlookers, it is often one person who raises his weapon one second ago, and the figure has been shattered the next second, "The speed of the military general is too fast, do you say that we ordinary soldiers can fight against the military general?" Many of the soldiers were whispering and discussing, and in their opinion, this level of force was enough to ignore the tactics of ordinary soldiers.
Yes, what if the Yellow Turban Army is only sword and shield soldiers and pikemen, and it can't threaten generals with a speed of more than 60 meters per second? Yan Zhanshu looked at the two generals in the battle, and also fell into deep thought. If it is a covering shot of large-scale archers, it can still cause damage to the generals, but the Yellow Turban Army only has sword and shield soldiers and pikemen, and the Orions are a minority after all, and the arrows are not enough, how to make up for it?
At this time, Xu Huang slashed down with an axe, Hu Jiquan really couldn't dodge, and stiffly greeted him with a horse, and was split so that his hands burst with a tiger's mouth, and the horse came out of his hand and flew straight in the direction of Yan Zhanshu. With a bang, he crashed into Yan Zhanshu's automatically opened mental power shield, this accident not only made Xu Huang discover Yan Zhanshu and hurry over to say hello, but also woke up Yan Zhanshu who was thinking about it and found a new way to solve the problem: Why do you have to use a bow and arrow?! Throwing guns can also be used to attack from a distance. The large-scale production of bamboo guns is completely within the scope of the material conditions of the Yellow Turban Army! Sharpen the bamboo into a spear, and then bake it slightly, and its sharpness is not inferior to that of a sword. Bamboo guns, in the hands of the Yellow Turban Army, will become a great weapon to defeat the enemy! What's more, Yan Zhanshu also thought of a terrifying biochemical weapon - golden juice! The bamboo spear soaked in gold juice is simply a dum bullet in the late Han Dynasty, and there is no salvation for the middle!
What's more, the enemy to be dealt with at present is the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, after looting the Luoyang Royal Armory, maybe they are all wearing armor, but the horse will definitely not have the conditions to wear armor. Caught off guard, he was fired by a volley of 10,000 guns, and the result of waiting for Xiliang Iron Cavalry could only be a man on his back.
However, if you want to do a salvo, it is not so simple, Yan Zhanshu thought of the military training he experienced in his first year of junior high school, and he had an idea in his heart. Waving his hand to signal Xu Huang to let him not recognize him, continue to control the process of his subordinates' authority, and turn around to return to his military tent.
