Chapter 613: I have never fought such a rich battle in my life
Li Ke nodded silently, Shi Ji gave Li Ke a lot of puzzles, the situation in Linyi is different from the real wax, although the real wax is not as good as the four ancient civilizations, but the real wax also has a unique civilization here in BC, although it was also influenced by the Han Dynasty, but did not completely abandon its own cultural heritage, such as Angkor Wat, which was built more than 400 years later.
"It's troublesome." Li Kechong Shi Ji arched his hand slightly.
"Your Highness is polite, Your Highness has something to order, the old man is old, his children and grandchildren are full, there is no worries, His Royal Highness will do his best." Shi Ji said seriously.
Li Ke smiled, then nodded, and then let Shi Ji be sent away.
"Pei Xingjian." After Shi Ji left, Li Ke called Pei Xingjian over.
"Your Highness."
"Go and call Liu Yilong, Huo Gang, and all the main admirals of the navy." Li Ke said.
"Yes!" Pei Xingjian immediately turned around to call someone, although Huo Gang was Li Ke's personal guard, but there were not many generals at present, so he was also assisting Liu Yilong in dealing with other things.
Soon, a total of more than a dozen people rushed here.
"Sit." Li Ke pointed to the chair in the hall before speaking.
"What did you all think about yesterday's battle?" Li Ke looked at them and asked, "Liu Yilong, you, the division commander, speak first." ”
Liu Yilong's current General Yun Lu is the commander of the First Division of the Navy, and the total number of soldiers in the First Division is only 7,000, which is not a full number, but this is all the naval soldiers trained at present.
"Back to Your Highness, I don't have any ideas, the strength of the two sides is not at the same level, they don't have any power to fight back at all, and the other thing is that this medium-sized bed crossbow is too easy to use." Liu Yilong's eyes were shining.
"I'm just asking you to talk about this, do you think this bed crossbow can stop the cavalry, especially the heavy cavalry, from charging?" Li Ke looked at them and asked.
"No problem! Your Highness, if it was a cavalryman, he would have died even worse! But the only problem is that the consumption is a bit large. Liu Yilong quickly spoke, "In addition, this kind of war makes us all feel useless, and I didn't cut anyone yesterday." ”
Speaking of which, Liu Yilong was somewhat disappointed, he didn't kill anyone yesterday, and the enemy collapsed.
"You know! How? Don't take a soldier's life seriously, do you? Any idea what it's called? Li Ke glared at him angrily and said.
"Hehe, Your Highness, please advise." Liu Yilong laughed twice and said.
"This is called the poor are interspersed with tactics, and the rich are covered by firepower, and what we are playing here is firepower coverage! In the future, such a medium-bed crossbow is equipped with a standard base number of arrows is 30, and the number of base arrows carried by the enemy will kill as many cavalry as they want. You know a! Li Ke said with a sneer.
Liu Yilong took a deep breath, His Highness is really right about this thing, others can't afford to play it! Not to mention the strength of this crossbow itself, just say that its arrows are not something that ordinary people can play, and who can afford to play with the three-edged armor-piercing arrow? At present, the main arrows of the Tang Dynasty army cannot afford to play.
At least it is impossible to use three-edged armor-piercing arrows as His Highness said, and the casting process, steel consumption, etc., cannot be consumed.
Moreover, this medium-sized bed crossbow that is not large in size is actually more powerful than Datang's current large bed crossbow! But the difference in size and weight is too big, this medium-sized bed crossbow can be carried and run casually, and two people can take turns to run, and this mobility has been greatly improved.
"In addition, have you found any shortcomings in the process of using it?" Li Ke looked at them again and asked.
"This, it doesn't seem to be, it's perfect." Liu Yilong shook his head.
Liu Yilong can't be blamed for this, mainly because compared with the previous weapons of Datang, the gap between this thing and the previous Datang weapons is not half a star.
"Where's the bow and arrow?" Li Ke asked again.
"We have tested the recurve bow, and the strength is higher than that of the previous bow of Datang, if the arrow uses an armor-piercing arrow, that is, the armor on our body can resist at a certain distance, and all other armor is not good, including the previous Mingguang armor of Datang, because our armor is steel, and Mingguang armor is iron armor." Liu Yilong said.
"Very good, don't be afraid of the loss of bows and arrows in the future, I will replenish you with a sufficient number of bows and arrows, if not, directly cover them with bows and arrows." Li Ke nodded seriously, the navy's combat test can be regarded as finding a way out for Datang's future cold weapon operations.
For example, after the arrow shaft is made by machine tools, its production speed has been greatly improved, at least ten times faster than the previous handmade by Datang, and the manufacturing speed of arrows has far exceeded the intensity of use in this era.
Of course, don't compare the arrow shaft of this era with the carbon fiber or fiberglass arrow shaft under the pure industrial system of later generations, what is the center of gravity of the arrow shaft, etc., as long as the arrow shaft of this era is straight, it can be shot out.
The army is covered by a large area of arrows, and you are not playing sniping, so it is not necessary to be so accurate.
As for some awesome bow masters, let them make up for it with their skills.
"Yes!" Liu Yilong bent down and saluted.
"Now I command." Li Ke said.
With a "bang", all the generals stood up directly.
"Liu Yilong led the First Division of the Navy to the junction of Linyi and Zhenwax, Pei Xingjian is the political commissar of the First Division, remember my strategic intentions, if I can test it, I will try to test our combat methods, especially whether the method of firepower coverage can work."
"In addition, when meeting with the real wax army, you must let them suffer a big loss without knowing it!"
"Yes!"
"Pei Xingjian, you are mainly responsible for the task of negotiation, if they want to talk after the defeat, let them come to Xianglin City to talk to me, remember! What you can't get on the battlefield, you can't get at the negotiating table, but I want a lot. Li Ke said with a calm face.
"Yes! Your Highness! Pei Xingjian bent down and saluted with a serious face.
"By the way, what about our casualties in yesterday's battle?" Li Ke looked at Liu Yilong and asked.
"Your Highness, our army has a total of twenty-two minor injuries." Liu Yilong lowered his head with some shame.
"What is the reason?" Li Ke looked at him and asked.
"There were three near-death elephants who were accidentally injured, all of them were bruised, and the other 19 people were all injured by falls, some accidentally stepped on the air and sprained their feet, some tripped over the corpses and fell and injured, and a few dislocated arms, and they were too excited to chase." Liu Yilong said with a constipated face, mainly because the reason for the injury was too outrageous.
"Oh, what about people?" Li Ke didn't feel anything, on the battlefield of cold weapons, this kind of injury was too normal, and they were not familiar with the terrain here.
"After I had the doctor see it, they were all thrown on the boat and confined for three days." Liu Yilong said depressedly.
