Su Fengling's gaze retracted, her eyes obviously flashed with different colors, her previous focus had been on Su Qi'an, and she didn't pay much attention to the weapons and equipment of the Dongshan Army.

But this time it was different, let's just say that the archers in front of them who kept shooting arrows with bows, the bows in their hands were different from those used by the Daliang soldiers, and the bows in their hands were about half larger than usual.

The whole body was pitch black, the material looked like metal, and every time the bow and arrow were fired, the bow and rope made a dull sound.

This is a heavy bow, but it is a little different from a normal heavy bow, in the upper and lower positions of the firing point, there are two more wooden devices, and every time the companion pulls the bow, the two wooden devices will change, which looks a little complicated.

The advantages of the heavy bow are obvious, the range will be greatly improved, but the disadvantages are also obvious, to be able to operate the heavy bow, you must have amazing arm strength.

Even if you meet the conditions and want to use the heavy bow many times in a row, then the archers will probably be useless.

But the group of people in front of him are archers, yes, but to say that all of them are wrestlers with amazing arm strength, it is impossible at all, that is, standard archers.

And they continued to draw their bows and shoot arrows, without the slightest hint of exhaustion, which is a bit incredible.

Not only that, but next to the archers, there were a large number of crossbowmen, and the crossbows in their hands were not single, but bursting.

The repeating crossbow is not nothing, but its range is short, the accuracy is poor, and the effective killing range is only between forty and sixty steps, and it is often used when the enemy is approaching in front of him, and it is also the last line of defense for long-range attacks.

But this batch of crossbowmen opened Su Fengling's eyes, and at a distance of 100 steps, she began to shoot.

Although the accuracy is still very poor, the overwhelming rain of arrows has given the other party a strong deterrent.

Even if you are not afraid of death, looking at the dense arrows flying in the air in front of you, you will have considerable fear in your heart.

Not only the arrows and crossbows, but also the first regiment that rushed out of the valley and fought head-on with the indigenous army, these soldiers were not wearing armor, and inside their torn coats, they looked like rattan armor.

The cavalry regiments that rushed out on both sides, except for a small number of heavy armor soldiers, the rest were light cavalry, but they each had a crossbow, a charge, the two sides were not close, and the crossbow arrows in the sky shot directly at the opposing enemy's indigenous army, causing casualties in Daliang in an instant.

It's not impossible to match a crossbow with cavalry, and some elite cavalry in Daliang can be paired with a bow and arrow, and you can shoot while riding.

This style of play is still learned from Northern Darong, but if you want to reach that level of perfection, you need a long time of running-in training.

But even if it is reached, it is still not the opponent of the Da Rong cavalry, there is no way, who makes the Rong people themselves a nation on horseback on the grassland, and almost all of them are born to be good at riding and shooting.

Da Liang has congenital defects in this area, no matter how good the training is, it is not necessarily an opponent.

And today, whether it is a regiment fighting head-on, or a cavalry regiment charging on both flanks.

Even if the number of people is only a few thousand, with these improved new weapons and equipment, and their fierce style, they have the momentum of tens of thousands of people.

At this time, the worry in Su Fengling's eyes dissipated completely, and her eyes lit up.

"Uncle Lin, I understand, the number of people is not enough, the weapons and equipment are to make up, these improved new weapons and equipment, when encountering a group of soldiers with fierce styles, the two are really like tigers."

"This battle may really be won."

Guard Lin nodded and said, "These newly improved weapons and equipment, even compared to the Imperial Forbidden Army, are not too much, it is said that Marquis Su set up a research and development department a long time ago."

"Presumably, these improved weapons and equipment are all the credit of this R&D department, Su Hou Ye is indeed a capable person, not only sparing no effort to spend a lot of money to set up the R&D department, but also have great respect for talents in various industries, if this is in Kyoto, these talents are in the eyes of the family elites, I am afraid that they are a group of civilians who do not enter the stream."

"It's not unreasonable for Hou Ye Su to succeed." Lin Huwei sighed.

Su Fengling also agreed with this, she had heard it in the R&D department, and the people in it basically included people from all walks of life, but these people were all skilled craftsmen in the industry

。

But this group of craftsmen is not absent in Kyoto, but their status, treatment, and identity are very different from the R&D department.

No matter how good the craftsmanship is and how rich the experience is, after all, he is an inferior person, and he can't get into the face of a powerful family, and even sometimes, if he offends a big man because of something, he will be imprisoned or exiled.

This kind of discrimination against craftsmen is not only in Kyoto, but also in the whole of Daryo, and even in the northern part of Daiei.

But in Jiaozhou, Tucheng County, which is under the jurisdiction of Su Qi'an, there is no such discrimination at all, and what Su Qi'an abolished is not only slavery, but also the social status that is pressed in the hearts of everyone and divided into three, six, nine and so on.

In Tucheng County, the highest status is not the wealthy families, nor the big and small officials, but these low-level civilians who contribute to the construction of the county.

At first, Su Fengling did not understand this phenomenon, although she would have mercy on the low-level civilians, but not to the point of improving their social status.

After all, she is the most noble royal family, even if her thinking is a little advanced, but after all, she will be narrow-minded by this feudal era.

Looking at everything in front of him, whether it is this group of soldiers who do not want to die, or improved weapons and equipment, they are all from the bottom of society, and they are also inferior people who are looked down upon by the superiors.

is such a group of people, but it is a group of people who have completed the ultimate goal of the superior.

Now Su Fengling can somewhat understand the truth that Su Qi'an said that water can carry a boat and can also overturn a boat.

Su Fengling's eyes flashed, and at this time, an idea arose in her heart, "When I return to Beijing in the future, there are some things that my father will pay attention to."

What Su Fengling thinks, Su Qi doesn't know, and he doesn't want to know now.

His eyes, intently looking down, the fierce battle.

This frontal battle, in addition to actual combat training, is also to test this batch of newly improved weapons and equipment by the R&D department.

An auxiliary device is added to the heavy bow, which is precisely the auxiliary device that allows the archer to pull the heavier bow in the most effortless way.

In modern times, this is no longer strange, and even the manufacture of bows is made of composite materials, and with the addition of some high technology, it is not a problem to reach a kilometer with an arrow.

But Su Qi'an is in Daliang, and all he can do is to increase the auxiliary device, but it is this kind of auxiliary device that has convened half of the craftsmen in the R&D department to participate collectively and integrate assembly line manufacturing.

After investing a lot of manpower and material resources, an idea provided by Su Qi'an was finally completed a month ago.

In a month's time, it was immediately put into production, and even if it was produced day and night, only 300 bows were made.

Plus improved ballistaries, repeaters, and rattan armor, all equipped in one group.

This is not Su Qi'an's partiality, in the Dongshan Army, the strongest strength is naturally a regiment, the previous suppression of bandits, to the later battle of the county town, Su Qi'an did not let a regiment serve as the main force.

In order to let them run in more with the new weapons and equipment, just for the current war.

The group with the strongest combat power will naturally be the most ferocious and ruthless tough battle to fight.

After a few rounds of arrows, the crossbowmen stopped firing, as the two sides were already fighting fiercely.

The cavalry regiment is okay, it has a lethal weapon like a repeater crossbow in its hand, and the heavy armored cavalry opens the way, and the light cavalry assists on both sides.

This group of natives who raided the two wings did not have any good guys in their hands, and even the elite natives were scarce.

It all depends on the number of people to pile up, and all the elites are controlled by the four priests on the frontal battlefield.

Because they all want to capture Su Qi'an alive, gather heavy troops, and defeat them from the front, which can not only cause damage to the other party to the greatest extent, but also give the other party a psychological deterrent.

From then on, once they saw their elite natives, they would be afraid, terrified, and even retreated without a fight.

This idea is exactly the same as what Su Qi'an thought, this group of natives, don't look at the war is not good, but they are very hard in their mouths and hearts.

If Su Qi'an engaged in some ambush and sneak attack, even if they were lucky, they would not accept it, they would only say that Su Qi'an was lucky and won by being clever.

This is Su Qi'an

said that it was nothing, but this was not what Su Qi'an wanted, what he wanted now was not just to take down the two elders and let him sign the contract.

What is more important is to subdue him, to subdue him thoroughly, so that all the priests, big and small, know that if they want to move him in the future, they must weigh whether they are qualified or not.

Therefore, in this battle, Su Qi'an must fight, and he must be clean.

At this time, the ball was like a sharp knife, and at the moment when the two sides came into contact, it tore through the opponent's line and rushed directly into it.

Countless elite natives counterattacked and resisted, but when they could cut through the clothes of a group of soldiers and expose the rattan armor on their bodies, the four priests realized that it was no wonder that this group of people was not wearing armor, they originally thought that this group of people was a death squad, and Su Qi'an deliberately released them to die.

Now that I think about it, they are a little too stupid, and the appearance of the rattan armor effectively resists the attack that slashes at them.

Because of the lightness of the rattan armor, a group of soldiers rushed towards the two elders behind like a tide.

Even in the strong front, under the leadership of Su Yong, it was torn apart.

The faces of the four priests were gloomy, they underestimated these thousands of Liang soldiers, this combat power is indeed fierce, and the rattan armor with perverted defensive power in the body, if you don't think about it, I'm afraid that it will really be completely torn apart by thousands of people.

The four priests looked at each other and immediately shouted, "Set them on fire, burn them!"

At the sound of an order, countless torches were thrown in the black air.

Rattan armor may be very rare in other states, but Jiaozhou is the origin of rattan armor, the advantages and disadvantages of rattan armor, the four priests know very well, the biggest disadvantage is fear of fire.

Because of this, the soldiers of Jiaozhou, or their priests, did not make it on a large scale.

The flames were so bright that rockets were fired from the rear, and the flames were burning.

The four priests sneered, they laughed at Su Qi'an's stupidity, thinking that he was invincible in rattan armor?

The flames burned on many of the vine armor soldiers, but the scene where the vine armor soldiers were engulfed did not appear as expected.

As if they were not afraid of death, the vine armor soldiers rushed out of the flames, and the flames burning on them were extinguished after a while.

This scene. The four priests who watched were stunned, "How is this possible! Is this still human?"

Su Qi'an in the rear, the corners of his mouth raised a touch of arc, the rattan armor soldier was afraid of fire, he already knew it when he made it, he dared to take out the rattan armor again, wouldn't it improve?

This time, the result is okay.
