Chapter 424: Troop Reform, Crossbowmen to Infantry Ratio, Seven to Three!
On this afternoon, the weather was fine, and Qian Fei'er once again took Buyun Jia, escorted by a large number of soul masters and personal soldiers, to Ge Long's military camp.
At the gate of the barracks, the leader of the squad was still guarding the door, and when he saw the queen coming again, he instantly opened the door to Qian Fei'er happily and bowed.
"Humble Liu ......, see Her Royal Highness the Queen, Her Royal Highness the Queen Chitose, Chitose, Chitose!"
Qian Fei'er chuckled and waved her hand.
"No courtesy."
"Her Royal Highness Empress Xie."
The soldier got up happily, then bowed again, and took the initiative to speak: "I will go and tell Marshal Ge Long that he will come to meet Her Royal Highness the Empress." ”
With that, the soldier prepared to run away.
But at this moment, the smile on Qian Fei'er's face disappeared, and she snorted, using a little soul power.
"Hmph, what are you going to do without the instructions of this palace?"
"Humph!"
The soldier snorted, turned pale, took a step back, and fell to the ground.
He propped his hands on the ground and looked at Qian Fei'er in horror, his face full of fear.
He only found out now that Her Royal Highness the Empress doesn't seem to be so easy to get close to, and like Marshal Ge Long, he has the power of life and death at any time!
He was already scared, afraid that Qian Fei'er would kill him with an order.
Opposite the soldiers, Qian Fei'er was actually very helpless.
She didn't want to kill or scare the soldier, the reason for this was that the soldier behaved too casually.
In this way, her image in the barracks will also look a little less majestic, and if an order is issued, the whole army will laugh at it and even the generals under her will think that they are more commanding and strategic, and will not obey the order, what will they do?
Therefore, she had to behave a little fiercely, to maintain a faint majesty, so that all the generals could obey her orders.
At the entrance of the barracks, Qian Fei'er looked at the soldier sitting on the ground, opened her eyes a little, her eyes were high, and she disdained this soldier.
"Without an order from this palace, no one is allowed to make their own decisions, do you hear clearly?"
"Little ...... The little one understands. ”
The soldier surnamed Liu replied with some difficulty, and his words were a little unfluent.
Qian Fei'er nodded with satisfaction and waved her hand.
"Go, go and tell Ge Long that the main palace is waiting for him at the door."
"Yes, the little one will do it right away."
The soldier surnamed Liu knelt on the ground and replied respectfully, then stood up with a little bent over, took two steps back, and then turned around and ran away quickly.
After a while, Marshal Ge Long walked briskly from inside the barracks, came to Qian Fei'er, bowed respectfully and clenched his fists, and saluted.
"Weichen Gelong, see Her Royal Highness the Queen, Her Royal Highness the Queen Chitose, Chitose, Chitose."
Qian Fei'er nodded and waved her hand.
"Marshal Ge Long, take this palace to see the crossbowmen you trained, this palace will see how the results are, let's talk as we go."
"Yes."
Goron replied respectfully.
Afterwards, the two walked to the barracks together, and Ge Long reported the situation to Qian Fei'er as he walked.
"Her Royal Highness the Queen, since you brought the Divine Arm Crossbow, Weichen immediately ordered someone to make it, and now it has opened an assembly line workshop, mass production, with a daily production capacity of more than 200 aircraft, and now more than 1,000 aircraft have been made, and there have been 1,000 infantry in different time periods, each carrying out shooting training."
After listening to this, Qian Fei'er nodded, she was actually not very satisfied with the number of more than 200 planes per day, but now that the level of science and technology in Douluo Continent is low, more than 200 planes per day is already a lot.
In addition, the crusade against Poseidon Island has not yet begun, so there is no need to rush so hard.
After thinking about it, Qian Fei'er asked Ge Long.
"Marshal Ge Long, how are you going to distribute the infantry ratio when you get this batch of divine arm crossbows? It's the number of melee foot soldiers and crossbowmen. ”
When Ge Long heard this, he thought for a moment and replied: "Returning to Her Royal Highness the Queen, Wei Chen thinks that the ratio of foot soldiers to crossbowmen should be set at six to four, which can ensure greater offensive ability, and at the same time have strong ability to resist impact and protection, both offensive and defensive. ”
Six to four?
Qian Fei'er raised her eyebrows.
Under normal circumstances, six to four is indeed a better ratio, as Goron said, with strong offensive and defensive ability.
However, Qian Fei'er was not satisfied.
She squinted at Goron and commanded.
"Marshal Ge Long, I will give you a new bow weapon, you can use it as a standard bow to manufacture and equip it in large quantities, train the corresponding soldiers, and adjust the ratio of infantry, archers, and crossbowmen to three to four."
"Three to three to four?!"
Goron was shocked.
"Isn't that unguarded?" For the Honored Academy
In Ge Long's mind, such a configuration ratio is extremely inappropriate, there are too many crossbowmen, in case someone is engaged in melee combat, it is a dead end, and there is no room for any backhand at all.
Qian Fei'er smiled confidently, "Don't worry, Marshal Ge Long, the new archer weapon I gave you hasn't been tested yet, let's see it first." ”
As she spoke, Qian Fei'er quickened her pace slightly, and Ge Long hurriedly followed.
Not long after, the two of them came to the shooting range again surrounded by a group of personal soldiers and soul masters such as Buyun Jia.
Today's shooting range has been twice as large as when Qian Fei'er first came a few days ago, because a large number of soldiers are required to practice shooting with the Divine Arm Crossbow, and they also need to aim and adjust the elevation angle of shooting, which requires a large area.
At this time, there were already many soldiers practicing at the shooting range, and when they saw Qian Fei'er, they were all excited and fanatically shouting: "Long live Her Royal Highness the Queen!" Long live Her Royal Highness! ”
Obviously, that day, Qian Fei'er's soft and moving image has been transmitted to the ears of all soldiers through the foot soldier surnamed Liu, and now, Qian Fei'er is more loved and welcomed by this group of soldiers than Xue Ye, and at the same time, she is also the dream lover in their minds.
Qian Fei'er smiled slightly and threw a flying kiss towards the place with the most people.
Suddenly, the soldiers over there cheered, and even roared, and they couldn't get excited.
Ge Long Lian said loudly several times before the soldiers stopped their voices, which was enough to see the great influence of Qian Fei'er.
Ge Long took Qian Fei'er, and after clearing a small shooting range, he bowed respectfully to Qian Fei'er and clenched his fists, looking at Qian Fei'er expectantly.
"Your Highness the Queen, I don't know if you have any new bow weapons, can you take them out and try them now?"
Qian Fei'er smiled slightly, and her slender jade hand wiped on her soul guide bracelet, and the soul guide bracelet emitted a faint fluorescence, and after a while, a large bow appeared in Qian Fei'er's hand.
The bow is long, two meters long, and the bow arm is a whole strip of fine yew wood, showing a smooth arc.
The bow in the Heaven Dou military camp was very inferior, and the string length was not long, only less than one meter and a half, and it was the first time Ge Long had seen such a long bow.
He asked in amazement, "What kind of bow is this?" So long! ”
Qian Fei'er smiled slightly and said the answer.
"Marshal Ge Long, I call it the yew longbow, which is made of a fine yew wood, and is used with the Divine Arm Crossbow to be used as a medium and close range to engage the enemy.
Qian Fei'er said, and prepared to pull out the yew longbow and shoot.
However, her height is still lower, and it is not very convenient for her to open her bow at only one meter six.
It seems that you have to release the martial spirit.
Qian Fei'er groaned for a while, her soul power was released, and eight soul rings of two yellow, two black, four red rose under her feet.
At the moment when the soul ring was raised, six huge golden wings with black fine patterns appeared on her back, and on her head was a helmet with a pair of horns that were completely upward to the Heavenly Demons.
King of Angels, Martial Spirit!
The martial spirit was released, and Qian Fei'er hung in the sky, holding the bow in her left hand, and took out a heavy arrow and put it on the bowstring of the yew longbow.
With a slight force on her hands, she pulled the string of the yew longbow to the maximum.
Twenty meters away from Qianfei'er's front, there was a target.
However, this target is not an ordinary ring target, but a ...... A pair of heavy armor!
The armor is the most commonly used heavy plate armor in the Heaven Dou Empire now, made of fine iron, one centimeter thick, and the full set weighs more than thirty kilograms.
Qian Fei'er aimed at the chest position of the armor and released the bowstring.
"Boom ——!"
The bowstring flicked up a strong wind and flicked onto Qian Fei'er's arm, causing the golden soul power on it to fluctuate.
Heavy arrows shot out, instantly hitting the armor twenty meters away.
"Bell ——!"
The crisp sound wave spread out, and many of the surrounding infantry felt a burst of noise in their ears, and even felt a little dizzy.
Twenty meters away, the chest of the armor was pierced, and the arrows of the yew longbow were stuck in the stake target behind it, revealing only a shaft with tail feathers.
Seeing that the armor was pierced, Ge Long's eyes widened.
What a powerful crossbow!
You know, this is the Heaven Dou Empire's heavy plate armor, it is the best of all armors, far surpassing the Iron Floating Tu Armor and Sheet Armor, the strongest defense, wearing this armor, even if it is slashed by a knife, it is fine.
However, such heavy armor was directly pierced, and it is conceivable how powerful the yew longbow is!
Imagine that such a strong bow can inflict a devastating blow on the enemy at close range, whether it is a direct shot at close range or a projectile at a large elevation angle.
In mid-air, Qian Fei'er had already withdrawn her martial soul at this time and fell to the ground.
She stood next to Ge Long and asked with a smile, "How, Marshal Ge Long?" ”
"Well...... this"
Ge Long groaned for a moment, his brow still furrowed slightly.
"This strong bow brought by Her Royal Highness the Empress is indeed amazingly powerful, and it can improve the huge combat effectiveness of our army, but it is still a problem just now, if we have too many crossbowmen and too few hoplites, in case we are engaged in close combat, I am afraid it will ......"
Ge Long didn't say any more, he thought to himself, the queen should understand.
Qian Fei'er waved her hand casually.
"Eh, General Ge Long, this is not a problem at all, you think, the enemy has not yet approached our army, four hundred and fifty meters away, a large area was shot by the divine arm crossbow, and after the enemy approached two hundred and twenty meters, the yew longbow will fire a salvo of arrows, and the enemy will suffer heavy losses.
