When Qiuqiu and the poor led the Mao army to fight the craftsman, it was chosen on a rainy day. Originally, it went quite smoothly, and for a time the craftsman had no power to fight back, but then it rained and suddenly the sky cleared, so he was burned to death by the craftsman. The decisive battle between Wang Xika and the craftsman was chosen on a sunny day, and he was almost wiped out by the craftsman, but then it suddenly rained, so Wang Xika was able to escape. For the war of this era, the weather is very important, and the so-called creation makes people, and life and death are often in an instant.

In this battle, only more than 20 of the more than 500 villagers brought out by Wang Xika came back. A few days later, more than 20 returned, and no one came back after that. More than 90% of them remained on the battlefield forever. Wang Xijia created a miracle in the history of human warfare: modern troops with advanced weapons such as automatic rifles, grenades, and mortars were almost wiped out by a group of primitive people who had just learned to use fire.

In fact, it is not surprising that Wang Xijia did travel from the future and did understand modern technology, but he had never fought such a large-scale battle in his life. The craftsmen did not know much about science and technology, but they fought every day and used tactics well. On the battlefield, whichever side knows how to use tactics better, which side is easier to win.

Many people died in the village, but the villagers did not blame Wang Xika - everyone understood that these people died to fight the craftsmen and gangsters, and in this era, it is normal for people to die. Wang Xijia felt very sorry, so many friends who used to play together fought and died like this, he was really sorry for the young people he brought out, and he was sorry for supporting his fellow villagers unconditionally. He remembered that he once wanted to conquer this world, when Meng Jianniang said that fighting would kill people. Now that many people have really died because of the war, Wang Xijia found that the psychological pressure brought by the dead was unbearable, and he felt very annoyed. And all the troubles of human beings are, in the final analysis, anger at their own impotence.

After two days of worrying, Wang Xika felt that it was not a problem to be angry like this, so he still had to cheer up and think of a way: after all, he was still alive, and he couldn't kill himself, he could only make himself stronger, and he would definitely be able to figure out a way. For the next few days, Wang Xika locked himself in his home, reminiscing about the Art of War and World War II, trying to learn from these wars and find a way to defeat the craftsmen. After thinking about it, the most impressive thing is the "go for the plan" in "Thirty-six Strategies".

After thinking for a long time, Wang Xika decided not to compare tactics with craftsmen anymore: tactics are the advantage of craftsmen, and his own advantage is technology. He should make use of his strengths and avoid his weaknesses, expand his technical advantages over the craftsmen, and never engage in any large-scale battles with the craftsmen before he builds an airplane. When the aircraft and tanks are built, then it is useless for the craftsmen to know how to use tactics, because the technological gap is too large to be bridged by tactics.

Although he did not achieve the goal of annihilating the craftsmen before the war this time, the craftsmen did not kill themselves, and everyone still had a chance. The craftsmen had suffered losses before, and they did not dare to attack the upper estuary again for a while, and they relied on this time to engage in technology. The soldiers who came back came to Wang Xijia's house every day to petition, and they must take revenge for this. Mr. Ogura also brought the students here, saying that in the current situation, everyone has no intention of studying, and only wants to go into battle to kill the enemy.

Wang Xijia is now bent on building an airplane, and he is not in the mood to lead everyone to attack the base camp of the craftsmen again, what if people die again? But he understands that everyone's emotions need to be vented. So he gathered everyone together, and mixed those who had been on the battlefield and those who had not been to the battlefield into a team, and told this team that your task is to strictly guard the mines and the oil fields, and if you find a craftsman near the oil field, you will kill him, and the craftsman will not be allowed to get another drop of oil.

Craftsmen like to use asphalt for fire attack, and if there is no asphalt, then their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced. Wang Xijia asked Carpenter Liu to put aside the work of making magnetic levitation flying saucers and reproduce the winged airplane with him.

What Wang Xijia wants to reproduce is the simplest biplane, which can be built from wood as long as the engine power is large enough. Although the speed is only more than 300 kilometers per hour, in this era, as long as you have such an aircraft, the battle is over - put a heavy machine gun on the plane, sit on it and throw grenades while strafing, what will the artisan tribe take to win?

Wang Xijia has previous experience in manufacturing V2 engines, motorcycles, and modern knowledge, and Liu Carpenter also has experience in building flying machines. It was not difficult for them to make a biplane with a good drawing, and in less than a month the world's first biplane was made. Although the plane is relatively rudimentary, with no radar, no navigation, and even no air conditioning, the important thing is that the plane can really fly.

Before the crossing, Wang Xijia also had his own private jet, but he did not fly it himself. Flying on a purchased private jet is different from flying an aircraft of your own making. Wang Xijia took a test flight, and everything on the earth could be seen clearly, and he understood that the craftsman could not defeat himself now.

Although the first flight was successful, Wang Xika was not happy - if the plane had been built a month earlier, then the soldiers he brought out would not have died. I only blamed myself for being too confident and underestimating the enemy at that time, and I always felt that a motorized unit could win by fighting a cold-weapon unit, but the result was a mistake. I don't know where the souls of those dead soldiers will end up? Will they meet the craftsmen in another world? Or will they travel to other eras with their memories? Although Wang Xijia himself has experienced a time travel, he still knows the mechanism of time travel, but deep down he hopes that those who have left will have a place to go and not turn into nothingness.

It's a pity that life can't be assumed, and what has happened can't be changed. If there was no war, Wang Xika would not have built planes so quickly, and war is always the best way to promote technological development.

On the second day of Wang Xijia's successful test flight, people from the craftsman tribe reappeared in Shanghekou Village. This time, they were not here to collect taxes or go to war, but to negotiate peace. Because Wang Xijia sent men to guard the oil and iron mines, the craftsmen could no longer make iron tools, nor could they use asphalt to carry out any fire attacks—it seems that the oil embargo was the most effective way to deal with the enemy in any era.

Wang Xijia didn't want to negotiate anything with the craftsman, but now that he has an airplane, it is not difficult to build a tank. As long as he wants, he can now launch a Trinity modern attack on the Artisan Tribe at any time, and leave this group of primitives to scum in seconds. Zach was even more furious, and was about to rush to cut down the three people with his sword.

However, Wang Xijia was a modernly educated person after all, and he knew the truth that the two armies would not fight each other, and it was really impossible for him to kill the envoy sent by the enemy to negotiate peace. After thinking about it for a few minutes, he stopped Zach and asked him to bring in the craftsman's messenger.

There were three messengers, all with long hair and beards, dressed in animal skins, dressed as primitive people. If it weren't for his own experience, Wang Xijia wouldn't want to believe that his modern troops were almost wiped out by these people.

The three craftsmen had never seen these strange and beautiful buildings in Shanghekou Village, everything here was new to them, and the shock in their hearts was greater than that of Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. When I entered the room, I saw Zack, the white-haired man, who was the old enemy of the craftsman, and met here in a narrow way, and both sides were eager to tear each other apart.

But the three of them knew that their mission was to negotiate, so they tried to manage their expressions well, tried to pretend to be neither humble nor arrogant, and tried not to make eye contact with Zack, just quietly looked at Wang Xijia.

Wang Xijia knew countless people, and he could see at a glance that the craftsman's heart was actually very nervous, and he intended to play a few primitive people, so he sneered: "May I ask what you are doing, are you here to collect taxes?"

The first craftsman said: "The king said that he laughed, we came this time to reconcile with the king." ”

When Wang Xijia heard the craftsman call himself "the king", he only felt funny in his heart. I've only heard this kind of title on TV before, but I didn't expect to hear it with my own ears now, and that feeling is like being called uncle by a child when I was in high school, and I was a little uncomfortable.

The craftsman took out a piece of white jade in both hands and said, "Be careful, please accept it." ”
