Chapter 51: Reforming the Arms and Conquering Dongyi

History is always written by the victors. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

King Zhou was defeated, so he became a sinner through the ages, and King Wu of Zhou and others became virtuous saints, but is history really like this? Qin Lan didn't know, and he didn't want to know, there was only one problem he had to consider at this time, that is, how to make the Dongyi people stop being a burden to the big merchants...... Maybe this is not enough, Dongyi is located in the Jianghuai area, with many mountains and rivers, and that location is actually equal to Dongwu during the Three Kingdoms period......

Counting the three kingdoms of Shu, Wei and Wu, perhaps Cao Cao's subordinates are the most talented, but he is gathering the talents of the whole plain for his own use, but even so, Dongwu is the last to perish in the Three Kingdoms, just relying on the local talents of Dongwu, Sun Jian to Sun Quan father and son have stubbornly withstood Cao Cao's invincible army, and there are several opportunities to destroy Shu......

In terms of the omnipotence of the army, how many of the Three Kingdoms can be compared with Sun Jian, Zhou Yu, Lu Xun, Lu Meng, Lu Kang and others?

On Yongwu Wushuang, Sun Ce, Tai Shici, Zhou Tai, Gan Ning, Cheng Pu, Ding Feng, Ling Tong, Huang Gai, Zu Mao, Ma Zhong...... Missing the five tiger generals again, how many points will the five good generals have?

On Political Strategy, Zhang Zhao, Lu Su, Zhang Hong, Zhuge Jin, Bu Qi, Kan Ze, Gu Yong, Zhang Wen, Luo Tong, Yu Fan...... Although it is a little worse than Cao Cao's subordinates, it is at least not less.

Such a place of outstanding people, with talents from generation to generation, is regarded as a wild and eastward land by the current big merchants, which is really ...... It is no wonder that the Shang Dynasty needed to spend a lot of effort to conquer them, and it is no wonder that the Shang Dynasty was indirectly destroyed in the hands of Dongyi in the end, and it is this that Qin Lan wants to change now.

"What does Di Xin mean is that we came here with great fanfare this time just to talk to the Dongyi people?" Wen Zhong stood in front of Qin Lan and was stunned for a while, "This ...... Something is wrong. ”

"No...... We are going to fight, and we will fight hard, until the Dongyi people surrender on their knees. Qin Lan smiled and waved his hand, "Taishi, it's up to you next, the harder you fight, the more beneficial we will be in the next negotiation." ”

"...... negotiations?"

This time he went to Dongyi, Wen Zhong personally led 100,000 Wang Shi to use troops against Dongyi, and then Dongbohou Jiang Huan Chu led more than 200 subordinate princes to also send more than 100,000 troops, forming a huge team, but in Qin Lan's opinion, the troops in this era are simply scarce...... The point of being miserable.

The Shang Dynasty even had only two types of troops, infantry and military vehicles.

The so-called infantry is a soldier armed with a bronze ge, and the better ones have a shield, and the worse ones, such as the slave soldiers, even have a club...... The chariot is generally pulled by two or four horses, and there will be three heavily armed warriors standing on the chariot, the resident drives the horse-drawn cart, the warrior on the left is armed with a longbow ** to shoot, and the warrior on the right is armed with a long stabbing attack. Generally speaking, the enemy is attacked in groups of five chariots, followed by infantry to fight after them......

Of course, if it is compared with summer time, the chariot is already a very big progress, and it is almost invincible against the team composed of pure infantry, and after the chariot of the brigade runs over, the battlefield is only a mess.

But for Qin Lan, who came from the Three Kingdoms era, the army of the Shang Dynasty was really too backward...... Of course, this is also where Qin Lan will start reforming next, as for his demon refining pot, there are many, many things, which can be quietly moved out in the future to give Western Zhou and the high-flying Yuan Shi Tianzun a big surprise.

After inspecting these armies of his own, Qin Lan just shook his head, the Wen Taishi under his command is a talent, so are the four generals of the Demon Family, and even many of the guards of the pass are also talents, but it is a pity that they are limited by history and cannot see farther.

Wen Taishi was puzzled by Qin Lan's attitude, obviously these royal masters brought were very brave and good at fighting, why did Qin Lan keep shaking his head?

"Master, pass my order, gather all the archers on the chariot, and in addition, select the rest of the soldiers who are good at shooting, and I will form a team of archers. ”

"Di Xin, this must not be, the archers are transferred, then the power of the chariot will be difficult to wield again......" Wen Taishi subconsciously wanted to block Qin Lan's thoughts.

"Hmph...... The role of the archer army is to take the lead, and the role of the chariot is to collide, isn't it awkward for you to put two different types of troops together?" Qin Lan insisted on his opinion unusually, and Wen Taishi had no choice but to go down and do so.

Obviously, Wen Zhong and the others couldn't accept Qin Lan's strange behavior for the time being, so Qin Lan had to personally train and lead these archers...... Of the 200,000 troops, they could only get less than 5,000 archers in the end, because archers were not a popular profession at all, or in other words, the merchants had not yet recognized the role of archers, and in their eyes, archers could only shoot farther by standing on top of the chariot, otherwise there was no way to hurt the enemy.

It doesn't matter, Qin Lan will soon make everyone understand what a big mistake they have made.

Of course, Qin Lan would not personally teach the archers how to learn to throw, in fact, he didn't understand this very well, but he had a demon refining pot, and there was a barracks in the demon refining pot, and the barracks had the profession of archers, so Qin Lan didn't have much to do, just pulled a few guards out from Tristram and ordered them to lead the archers to train.

Just kidding, the current lingua franca of the Chinese world in the Demon Refining Pot is, of course, Huaxia......

The appearance of five thousand archers shooting arrows into the sky together almost made Wen Taishi's face redden, he allowed Qin Lan to have some small willfulness, but the major military affairs, especially this expedition to Dongyi, must not lose, so he immediately wanted to stop Qin Lan, but Qin Lan already knew about it and had been waiting in the big tent for a long time.

"Wen Zhong, would you like to fight me?"

“？？？”

"Master Taishi is the first person of the earth immortal under the Holy Mother of Golden Spirit, but he has always succumbed to my big business and interacted with ordinary people, it should be very lonely...... How about I accompany Master Taishi?" Qin Lan stood up with a smile, and then opened the big tent, "Come on, bring Master Taishi's mount." ”

"......" Wen Zhong was stunned for a while, how do you know my identity?

"Transform the famous ink unicorn into an ordinary thriving x noisy fir Shan!" The nose of the target A chanted Γ slowly slapped the locust Shun blowing the mane horse's buttocks, "Little guy, return to its original form." ”

"Roar" Mo Qilin's body shook suddenly, and at the same time, he stepped on the clouds under his feet, but the person who brought it was directly stunned to the ground.

"Emperor Xin......" Wen Zhong saw that Qin Lan knew everything about him like this, and immediately clenched his fists and knelt down, "The old minister is definitely loyal to the big merchants, but his identity is a little special, and he has no intention of concealing the intention of deceiving the king. ”

"I understand......" Qin Lan smiled, walked over and helped Wen Zhong, "Please also ask Master Wen to take me a little farther, I also really want to see the mastery of Master Guan." ”

“......”

Wen Zhong rode on the ink qilin, and then let Qin Lan also sit on its back, but in a moment, the two of them had already appeared in the desolate area of Donglu, and the ability of the ink qilin to walk thousands of miles between the beards was definitely worthy of his reputation.

"What a mount. Qin Lan smiled, but suddenly floated up at Wen Zhong's frightened eyes.

Hell, this is nearly a kilometer above the ground, what are you going to do, Di Xin? Wen Zhong was about to command Mo Qilin to go down to save people, but he saw Qin Lan floating in the air with nothing to do.

"Di Xin?" Wen Zhong's eyes narrowed suddenly, and then suddenly there was a white light on his forehead, and then a crystal bright eye actually opened from his forehead, and then shot out a white light and shrouded Qin Lan's body. "Huh?"

"Of course I'm Zixin, could it be that the Taishi thinks I'm some kind of mountain spirit monster?" Qin Lan smiled, "It's just that I'm not Zixin either, before I was reincarnated, I was a different person." ”

"No wonder ......" Wen Zhong suddenly understood Qin Lan's strange actions when he chose concubines before, and finally understood why Qin Lan was so close to the concubines he selected...... Wen Zhong could be sure that Di Xin had never met them before choosing a concubine, and now he could finally explain Wei Ziqi's sudden and unexpected death.

In the realm of immortals, it is normal to be reincarnated with a soul, so Wen Zhong suddenly saluted with one palm, "Dare to ask Di Xin who was the Taoist friend in his previous life?"

"Huh...... This is a secret. Qin Lan shook her head and didn't give an answer. "Wen Zhong, I just want you to know that I am not a stubborn and ignorant person...... I know that you are loyal to the Great Merchants, but my purpose is something you can't think of now, what I want to do now is to make the Great Merchants strong...... You don't know yet, more than ten years later, the battle of the gods will begin, Lao Tzu, Yuan Shi Tianzun and your master's master Tongtian Sect Master, the three Sanqing lords have set the mandate of Shang to destroy Zhou Sheng, they will send immortals with Jiang Ziya as the mortal to help Xiqi's army, and after a few decades, Dashang will be destroyed in the war, and I will be the last generation of monarchs of Dashang, do you want to see this scene?"

"What...... What?" Wen Zhong was startled by Qin Lan's words, his expression was no longer something that could be described by words like stunned. "This is impossible, as immortals, it is absolutely impossible for us to participate in the battle between mortals......"

"Aren't you just participating?" Qin Lan glanced at him, didn't you hear that Zhong Zhong had been fighting in the east and west?

"It's different, I've never used immortal magic on ordinary soldiers, it's not allowed. Wen Zhong hurriedly explained. "At most, I will only attack the enemy's general, capture or kill him......"

"That's right, Yuan Shi Tianzun also sent some disciples to follow the army of ordinary humans, specifically to kill our guarded generals......" Qin Lan shrugged his shoulders, "The generals are gone, have the soldiers still fought?"

"......" Wen Zhong was speechless.

"Do you understand now?" Qin Lan smiled, "...... Therefore, in the coming days, I will do my best to transform our big business, make him stronger, make him more invincible, and make him not completely defeated because of the death of a general. ”

"Dixin, I see. Wen Zhong finally nodded, "However, if they set the destiny themselves, how can we disobey them? They are not something we can resist at all." ”

"They...... Although he is a Sanqing, he is not a saint. Qin Lan smiled, "The rules of this world are not yet their turn to speak...... Wen Zhong, come and fight with me. ”

“......”

When Qin Lan and Wen Zhong returned to the camp together that night, everyone saw that Wen Zhong's attitude towards Qin Lan had changed, and they had become more respectful and ...... There was a hint of fanaticism in his eyes, and some rumors and speculations began to arise about Wen Zhong's identity, all of which said that Wen Zhong was an immortal in the sky, which Qin Lan did not stop people, because it greatly deepened the confidence of the soldiers.

Anyway, Wen Zhong finally stopped stopping Qin Lan from pointing fingers at the army.

Because of the conditions of going out on the battlefield, Qin Lan can't make too many transformations to the infantry now, but the gap between the ordinary bronze soldiers and the spearmen is not big, and the shield-wielding soldier Qin Lan also transferred the sword and shield soldiers to start training them systematically and purposefully.

Although it was only a small action, almost all of a sudden, the entire army of the Great Shang was completely messed up by Qin Lan.

And then Qin Lan found some soldiers who were agile and began to train them to become scouts, as for the cavalry, because there was no stirrup, it couldn't wield much power for the time being, so Qin Lan was willing to continue to use the chariot, but he also made some modifications to the chariot.

It is precisely because of this that after the army of the Great Shang marched to the border of Dongyi, it actually stopped, which made the Dongyi people suspicious...... Early in the morning, when they learned that the Great Shang had sent a large army to conquer again, the Dongyi people had actually made a lot of preparations and prepared a big gift for these guests.

Dongyi is actually the name of the merchants to the eastern tribes, because there are nine main tribes also known as Jiuyi, because of the perennial conquest of the Great Shang, these nine tribes gradually united and moved towards unification, in fact, the Ming of the Dongyi people will not be much lower than the self-proclaimed original big merchants, but for some reason, the original production technology has not been able to spread here, therefore, the Dongyi people still exist in the form of tribes, and even more, they have not yet got rid of the shackles of matriarchal society, and are still dominated by women as the tribe.

According to Wen Zhong's previous experience in conquest of Dongyi, the Dongyi people were not good at frontal combat, they were good at bows and arrows, they were used to sneak attacks and incursions, and often acted in the dark night, so that the soldiers of the Great Shang could not sleep peacefully...... It's a pity that this time, the Dongyi people met their opponents, Qin Lan also sent scout troops when the army stopped training, and the Dongyi people who tried to use the terrain to spy on the army from the side were basically captured alive by Qin Lan.

Then Qin Lan was very shameless...... Collected them all into the Demon Refining Pot.

When these Dongyi people were recruited again, they were no longer Dongyi people, they were originally Qin Lan's people, and they almost had to answer Qin Lan's questions, and then Qin Lan knew the Dongyi people's countermeasures against the Great Shang army, knew the tribal location of Dongyi, and knew the current attitude of the Dongyi people......

Wen Zhong was almost dumbfounded by Qin Lan's hand.

Dongyi people are very stubborn, they are born from another kind of Ming of Dashang, they have their own words, their own language, their own way of communication, and their own world view, every time Dashang goes east, there are many Dongyi people who are captured, but even if they are reduced to slaves, even if they are tired and tired and then live and die, they have never been able to sell their tribe to Dashang, and the Dongyi people in Dashang are very easy to identify, they never speak, they just do things with their heads bored.

But now, Wen Zhong actually saw that Qin Lan had broken down the defense line of the Dongyi people in just a few minutes, and knew everything about the Dongyi people, so he began to order the army to attack.

Compared with bows and arrows, the scattered Dongyi people would definitely not be the opponent of the formed archer troops, especially when Qin Lanming had the arrows tied to the ends of the oilcloth...... Rockets may not be of much use now, but in that wild era, in that era when there were still thatched huts, rockets were deadly, and the Dongyi people hiding in the woods were driven out by the rockets that were thrown, and the tribal villages even needed only two or three rounds of salvos, which was a sea of fire.

The archer army of only 5,000 people made a great contribution this time, and no one expected it, including Wen Zhongwen Taishi, and definitely didn't expect that the archers could be used like this...... After abandoning the direct attack method, the rain of arrows shot by projectile was even more terrifying, and Huang Feihu, the king of Wucheng, watched thousands of Dongyi people rush out of the tribe, but they were all firmly nailed to death by the rain of arrows hundreds of meters away from the Li Dashang army.

Dongyi people also have brave men, but unfortunately, Wen Taishi has never encountered an opponent, King Wucheng bravely fought through the mountains and rivers, and the brave man who tried to break into the Dashang army alone only ended up kneeling in front of Qin Lan and then disappeared.

Of course, they will reappear after a while, but this time......

The army of the Great Shang has been approaching the main tribal group of the Dongyi people, which immediately caused panic among the Dongyi people, and more and more Dongyi people tried to come to the rescue and stop the pace of the Great Shang army, but it was only suddenly to no avail, and the migration was a big project, especially the larger the tribe, the more old and young women and children, how could they withstand the long journey to find another home? Just when the leaders of the Dongyi tribes were arguing endlessly over the fate of the race, the army of the Great Shang suddenly stopped again.

Then all the Dongyi people who had been captured before were all released, and they came back with a message.

The emperor of the Great Shang wants to ...... with the tribe Peace talks.

—————————— the dividing line of nonsense——————————

It took four trips to the court to get the notarial deeds of all the documents......

Really TMD trouble......

I hope it's going to be okay this time, God willing......
