Chapter 21: The Future of the Army - The Phalanx System

A strong shield needs to be equipped with the sharpest spear.

"Lord Castle, your train of thought is fine. But if you want to maximize the force value of cold weapons, then don't listen to these indigenous idiots, listen to us. ”

When Lu Qiyan heard this, he glanced at the player with the ID on his head called Confused Xiao Gangdan.

This man is a military enthusiast.

He took the lead in the previous gunpowder bombing technology.

In response to his suggestion, Lu Qiqi immediately sat up straight: "Please speak." ”

"In ancient times, cold weapons warfare was not just a matter of people rushing around with weapons and well-dressed equipment, but also a phalanx needed to play the greatest role.

Didn't I tell you just now, Yue Fei's anti-gold, the role of the phalanx. ”

The confused Xiao Gangdan looked at the lord who was listening carefully, and his strong desire to teach and educate people had almost reached its peak, "According to the current ability of Nuwa City, it is impossible to do too much training design. But I suggest that there must be three basic formations: infantry formation, cavalry formation, and defensive needle. ”

When Lu Qiqi heard this, he turned around and called the mosquito to call back the cocoa and the chaff that had just left.

Not only the two of them, but all the warriors who had a title in the army were all called over, and even the head of the security team, Fuji, found a place to sit down and listen to the confused teacher's lecture.

This battle made the confused teacher a little nervous.

It was Lu Qiqi who comforted him, "Teacher, you can talk casually, and they will listen casually." They don't really really understand. ”

Then she said to the row of soldiers sitting behind her: "This lesson is very important, give me a good listen." Later, I want you to build on this lesson and produce results. ”

The foolish teacher of the fourth year of the Moorka continental language specialty: ...... 6。

"Among these phalanxes, the tortoiseshell formation is the defensive formation that we recommend. The formation was designed by the Roman legions and swept through nearby countries.

Such a formation requires spears and heavy shields, as well as the physical support of the soldiers. ”

The name of the foolish teacher is very confusing, but he is not ambiguous at all in doing things. After speaking, he took two drawings of spears and shields, these shields are square, and the depression and protrusion of the lower and directional parts can just be inlaid, and they are combined to form a formation of all-round defense in the front, back, left and right.

After reading it, he sent the paper to circulate.

Immediately there was a discussion of hee-hee-hee-hee.

"Such a heavy weapon, suitable for the fierce general I lead. If the lord of the castle gives me such a weapon, I can defeat the ten Wills tribes. ”

"You're saying I'm not bringing a fierce general? If it were left to me, it would also play an important role. ”

Ling and Fu have already begun to fight over who wants it.

Lu Qiqi threw a warning look at the two, and the chaotic classroom instantly restored order.

Teacher Fool continued: "Of course, this turtle-shaped array is not completely invincible, once the Romans tried in vain to attack the Rest Empire with 40,000 elites, but they were crushed by the cavalry of the Rest Empire.

So the second phalanx system we need to equip is the cavalry array.

The cavalry formation was mainly divided into heavy cavalry and light cavalry.

Since the city lord agrees with us to engage in armor and cavalry, then the cavalry formation can also directly engage in heavy cavalry.

Heavy cavalry with lances and armour-piercing hammers, light cavalry with cavalry bows and one-handed swords.

When encountering a weak enemy army, the heavy cavalry can run over directly.

When encountering a strong enemy, you can also try the angle-cutting tactic, with a mixture of heavy cavalry and light cavalry. The army of the Roman Empire could be taken down by the Rest Empire, and the soldiers of the Jin Kingdom could be taken down by Yue Fei.

We've got to take them down, too. ”

The drawings were sent down again, and the chaff and cocoa were even more excited.

Think this is more doable.

Lu Qiqi looked at the excited general and the confused teacher above, and couldn't help but rub his forehead.

Of course, she also knew that the heavy cavalry was good, but everyone obviously didn't think about it, and even if they left all the horses that Donald brought, it would only be 20.

Their objective conditions are not enough to support the training of such elite heavy cavalry for the time being.

Lu Qiqi looked at the confused Xiao Gangdan, "Teacher, where is the infantry phalanx?" ”

"It's coming, it's coming! There was also a scheme for the infantry phalanx.

You must know that our ancestors used the infantry phalanx to educate many nomads before, and the achievements of the infantry are very powerful. ”

The foolish teacher took out a large number of weapon design drafts: "chariots, bow and ballista carts, spears and halberds, and then mixed them with the defensive array for detailed distribution." ”

After he finished speaking, he looked at the group of NPC generals who were listening carefully and had empty eyes, "I suggest not wasting time on other aspects, and first train them in the ability to arrange troops." After all, the future battlefield will definitely not be a simple hand-to-hand fight of dozens or hundreds of people, and if you still fight tens of thousands of people, you will trample your own people to death. ”

"Okay."

Lu Qiqi nodded.

Before this, they really hadn't been exposed to this aspect of the content and needed intensive training.

But beyond that, she has a question.

"Teacher Mu, why didn't you consider the use of gunpowder in the phalanx when you designed the phalanx?"

Their gunpowder was used successfully.

Why didn't they think about guns and artillery all the time?

"Because I'm not mature yet."

After Mr. Mu finished speaking, he suddenly realized, "You don't want us to study thermal weapons, do you?" It's impossible, it's hard to get raw materials now, and the density of iron is actually not very suitable for making thermal weapons. If it is made and arranged in the army, the lethality is not even as high as that of cold weapons.

Moreover, the quality of the soldiers in Nuwa City is very low.

Aren't you worried that they'll blow themselves up before they can be trained? ”

Joke.

With hot weapons, she must have wanted to go straight to the guns and shells.

As for the soldiers, they won't be able to do it now, but they can still practice.

Lu Zhizhi: "Where are you in your research on gunpowder?" ”

Mr. Paste: "The flame reaction of different metals. ”

"Don't, Lord God, I didn't give money to study fireworks."

As a pragmatist,

Put an end to all impracticality.

After Lu Qiqi finished speaking, he suddenly realized: "No, can we extract the metals of sodium, magnesium and aluminum now?" That alloy ......"

"Alright, stop, close!"

The confused Xiao Gangdan heard her words and stopped her imagination, "We only have a limited number of people and a limited labor force at present, you can't think about it at the same time." ”

"Okay."

Lu Qiqi also knows that you can't become a big fat person by eating one bite, and these things really have to be taken slowly.

Rather than urging them to build hot weapons, it is better to speed up the merger of scattered tribes.

The sentinels of the feudal empire had already discovered this, and she didn't have much time to merge the tribes little by little with a soft policy.

If you go outside, you must first settle inside.

She is not allowed to play with other cities, and there are primitive tribes near her who constantly cause trouble for Nuwa City.

"Mosquitoes, how is the integration of the Kumabara tribe lately?"

"It's not bad, according to the rules you gave before, there are only 9 days left, and they have passed the test and become official citizens."

"What about the wind review of Nuwa City?"

"The reviews are mainly on the good side. There are a lot of people who are quietly aware of our immigration policy, and there are also women whose children were born in Nuwa City, and they have asked us several times about how to become citizens of Nuwa City. ”

"It's good to have a welcome ready in ten days. In addition, all the large tribes will be invited, and the ceremony will be arranged, and I will speak at the end. ”
