Johnson said solemnly: "The Tang people are not easy to deal with!" ”

"How so?"

"Their cavalry, one man and three horses, moved quickly." Johnson preached first.

"Wow!" Pepin II was a politician, but also a military strategist, and he knew that he was powerful as soon as he heard that one man and three horses were powerful.

"Their cavalry was all sharpshooters, and they were all drawn with hard bows that could shoot through armor. There are also many arrows, one person brought two large bags of bows and arrows, about 200 branches, and when he encountered the enemy, he did not come forward to fight, but only shot with arrows! Johnson still learned a lot of the inside story.

"Their weapons!" Johnson handed the Tang knife he bought to Pepin II, and when he pulled it out, it was cold, showing an extremely high level of casting.

He took a hair and blew it towards the knife; Nitpicking!

Pepin II was silent!

The current Europa, the ancient Rome that buried Caesar and Ottavian in the early years, has just replaced the Western Rome that has just been divided, and the essence is that the barbarians are in charge, not to mention the development of science and technology, even the previous civilization has not continued, the craftsmen died, and the technology was lost, so the weapons cast are not very good, compared with the weapons of the Tang people, it is really second, how to fight in war!

"Didn't you get the Tang people's bow back?" Pepin II asked with a sigh.

"Nope!" Johnson regretted that the bow was not for sale, and the Tang people controlled it very strictly.

Swords can be sold, but the price is also high, and when it comes to fighting, there is no room for power at all, and the Tang people use bows and arrows to get them.

"Their infantry, regardless of combat effectiveness, everyone has armor and is equipped with sharp knives, and the main thing is that their grenadiers are very powerful!"

"How?" Pepin II asked.

"Grenades, thunder cannons, catapults, artillery, rockets!" Johnson spoke in one breath and pulled out a sketch of a drawing in their style.

He was in Xinying Prefecture, drunk a Tang veteran with good wine, the veteran was discharged from the army because of his disability and worked in the government, but he was very nostalgic for military life, and he did what Johnson liked, well, Johnson learned a little Tang language, he had a study manual issued by the Tang people, and he got a lot of information by communicating with the veterans.

In the past, the Tang people controlled this information very strictly, but now they are gradually letting go, not afraid of outsiders knowing, and it also has the intention of scaring outsiders. However, the recipe for gunpowder, the production method of catapults and flying thunder cannons, artillery, and rockets, and the casting technology are still strictly secret.

Hearing Johnson speak of the power of those weapons of destruction, Pepin II could no longer sit still, he stood up and paced, and said in a loud voice: "Our city will not be able to withstand their bombardment!" ”

Even if he has vision, the current Europa is in a period of continuous decline of technological civilization, what technological development can the barbarians have! (Without the arrival of the Tang people, according to the inertia of history, Europe is about to enter the dark Middle Ages!) From then on, it was dark until the Renaissance) The Tang Dynasty of the East looked at the world, and the Great Eclipse and Byzantium could loudly laugh at Europa in this regard.

Da Shi and Byzantium can also fight with the Tang people, and Europa wants to fight with the Tang army in the field, but he can't defeat the Tang cavalry at all, and if he defends the city, the Tang people's grenadiers can bury him weak!

Great food, Byzantium at least catapults, fire oil, heavy and double walls, caves, etc., what does Europa have?

Nothing, I'm afraid that the catapults of the Don army can break through the walls of the city of Europa! (This is not possible in Great Eclipse and Byzantium)

Moreover, according to Johnson, the Eastern Tang is very far from Europa, but they called all the way, and it is clear that there is no problem with supplies.

Johnson said he saw a large number of indigenous Europeans now wearing Tang clothes and speaking Tang dialect... With these cannon fodder, it is not a problem to start a war.

The two people in the hall looked at each other, and their faces were worried.

It's too late to say anything, as Pepin II said, "If I were an ordinary person, I would have fallen a long time ago!" ”

It's a pity that he is not an ordinary person, others can surrender, but he can't.

Then let's fight!

……

The Franks were savages, but they were quite resolute, and as soon as Johnson took his leave, Pepin II summoned his generals to the army.

As the largest force in Europa, Pepin II had ten generals under him, namely Reinhardt, Rotheil, Charles, Louis, Netherlands, Carlos, Perry, Teulives, Antony, and Ajax.

They were all Franks, a branch of the Germanic peoples, who now replaced the Romans, Greeks and other civilized people as the masters of Europa.

For example, "Antony" was a Roman name, but was now placed on a three-five-five, vulgar warrior.

The Great Ajax was the name of a warrior in Greek mythology, and now belongs to the name of a Frankish warrior.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Pepin II announced the meeting, said not a word of nonsense, and threw the Tang knife on the table!

With a "snap", it was nailed to the table, and the light made the generals' pupils shrink in unison!

"Can your knife compare to this one?" Pepin II asked.

Rothair had the highest status among the generals, and he reached out to take this Tang knife, first looked at it, and then handed it to the next one, and everyone looked at it in turn.

As a result, there are three people's knives that can be compared with this Tang knife, two are imported from Byzantium, one is from Da Shi, and the other seven people's knives are not good, someone has tried to use his knife to cut each other with the Tang knife, the Tang knife is fine, and his knife jumps into a hole.

"Is your subordinate's knife comparable to this Tang knife?" Pepin II asked again.

The generals shook their heads one after another, joking, the commander's knife is not as good as the Tang knife, and the soldier's knife is even worse!

"But the coming Tang people have 200,000 infantry and cavalry, probably, everyone is equipped with such a knife!" Pepin II shrugged.

What the?!

Without waiting for them to digest the news, Pepin II threw out a bombshell news: "The Tang people have one man and three horses, equipped with strong bows, two hundred arrows, and shoot arrows first when they see the enemy!" ”

Yikes!

Now even the most daring general feels weak!

If the Tang knife is sharp, then we Franks are not afraid of death, and rush up with heavy guys to fight with the Tang people, or the strong are afraid of the Leng, and the Lengs are afraid of not dying, and not dying, which is the true nature of the barbarians.

However, the Tang people didn't even have a chance to give the Franks a desperate chance, and the people who heard Pepin II speak were all old soldiers, and when they automatically brained up to fight against the Tang army, they charged, and the Tang people shot arrows, and the army couldn't rush to the edge of the people at all, so they were all shot to death!

"Don't think it's enough to defend the city, we also know what it's like to defend the city." Piping II laughed at himself and talked about the power of the Tang Army's "grenades, flying thunder cannons, catapults, artillery, rockets" and other technical weapons.

Everyone, is there any reason for this!

The field battle is powerful, there are methods to siege the city, how else can you fight!

Seeing that everyone was a little dazed, Pepin II felt glad that it was... They didn't appreciate the deliciousness of Tang Chinese food and wine, otherwise, they felt that they couldn't beat it, and there was temptation over there, and they were likely to surrender en masse!

It's not a joke, it's really possible for the barbarians to surrender for the sake of good wine!

"Although the Tang people are powerful, it is impossible for us to surrender, and after surrendering, we have no past status." Pepin II's words were echoed by everyone.

In the barbarian war, when a tribe is destroyed, the upper class will be destroyed, and there will be no survivors.

They didn't know that the Tang people were tolerant and big, and the tribal leaders brought troops to vote, and there were high-ranking officials waiting for them.

"Think about it, how to deal with the Tang people!" Pepin II asked.

Everyone thought it through.
