Chapter 680 The Gap

From the same configuration of dozens of people and the last time I saw it in Penglai Xiandao, this should be the standard configuration of cavalry. They all have knee-length armor and are connected with conical helmet chain mail to protect the sides and back of the head. and neck.The helmet and the armor were added together to form a set of armor weighing at least fifty catties.

Under the armor, the cavalry also wore protective pads to reduce the impact of blows.Other changes include a nose piece on the helmet, a long sword that can only be chopped, and a kite-shaped long shield made of wood and leather, which can provide better protection for personnel whether on horseback or on foot.

Through testing, the hardness, toughness and manufacturing process of the metal used in the weapons of the Crusaders are comparable to those of the Great Qin Empire.

However, Zhao Yuan still discovered the gap between the Great Qin Empire and the Crusaders from some details.

The weapon configuration of the Crusaders seems to pay more attention to combat efficiency, while the weapon configuration of the Great Qin Empire has extremely high requirements for appearance.

Generally speaking, the cavalry of the Great Qin Empire are more powerful and majestic in appearance, but the cavalry of the Crusaders are more suitable for combat.

In addition, Zhao Yuan also saw the difference from the weight of the weapons. The cavalry weapons of the Great Qin Empire were mostly about [-] catties, while the weapons of the Crusaders were more than [-] catties.

It is worth mentioning that the cavalry of the Heavenly Crusaders were not equipped with bows and arrows. If the cavalry of the Great Qin Empire were equipped with bows and arrows, then the weight gap between the two would be even smaller.

Theoretically, the cavalry of the Great Qin Empire should be more mobile due to the reduction in weight, but in fact, this is not the case, because the horses of the Crusaders are taller, and their load has also increased a lot.

Because of the difference in load, the fighting power of the horses was evened out. However, because the weapon configuration of the Crusaders was [-] catties heavier, it also meant that the armor of the Crusaders had stronger defensive capabilities, and the attack capabilities of their weapons also surpassed those of the Great Qin Empire. cavalry.

Putting aside the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, the Great Qin Empire has already fallen behind in terms of the cavalry configuration.

If you want to defeat the cavalry of the Crusaders, unless you use the heavy cavalry of the Great Qin Empire.

Immediately, Zhao Yuan shattered this idea. Undoubtedly, this was whimsical, because the Great Qin Empire had very few heavy cavalry, and the weapon configuration of one cavalry could block the property of a village. It was impossible for large-scale equipment.

In addition, in the entire Great Qin Empire, there may not be more than [-] strong men who can meet the standard of heavy cavalry.

In the face of hundreds of thousands of large corps battles, [-] heavy cavalry cannot change the entire battle situation. What's more, the mobility of heavy cavalry has already determined that it cannot be equipped on a large scale.

At present, Zhao Yuan has not come into contact with the infantry of the Crusaders. However, judging from the military appearance of the heyday he saw in Penglai Xiandao last time, the infantry of the Crusaders is not inferior to the infantry of the Great Qin Empire.

According to Zhao Yuan's judgment, the cavalry of the Crusaders are dominant, and the infantry should be comparable to the infantry of the Great Qin Empire. The Great Qin Empire should not be defeated in this battle. After all, this is a battle on the territory of the Great Qin Empire, and the Crusaders The army, on the other hand, traveled far and wide, and lost the right time and place...

……

Black-winged Kunpeng!

Suddenly, Zhao Yuan discovered that he had ignored an army that could be reversed and occupied at any time.

At the beginning, Zhao Yuan saw at least tens of thousands of black-winged Kunpeng in Penglai Xiandao.

A wry smile emerged from the corner of Zhao Yuan's mouth, and he suddenly understood why the Crusaders were not equipped with bows and arrows, because they didn't need them at all.

It seems that the situation is likely to be more serious than he imagined.

Not to mention that the Crusaders cavalry are already comrades-in-arms, even if they are evenly matched, the Crusaders, with the assistance of the heavenly army composed of black-winged kunpeng, must be invincible in attacking the city...

……

Out of nowhere, Zhao Yuan thought of the fighter jets on Earth.

Theoretically, the black-winged Kunpeng is exactly the same as the fighter jets on Earth, and they both have absolute air superiority.

For the soldiers of the Great Qin Empire, the black-winged Kunpeng is definitely a nightmare.

It is conceivable that when the soldiers of the Great Qin Empire were fighting bloody battles on the city wall, a burst of arrow feathers suddenly fell from their heads, what a torment it was.

The black-winged Kunpeng also has an absolute advantage in reconnaissance. Its flying height cannot be reached by bows and arrows. This makes the mobilization of the Qin Empire's troops transparent in front of the Crusaders, with nothing to hide.

Theoretically, with the black-winged Kunpeng, the Crusaders are already invincible, while the Qin army is at an absolute disadvantage.

In this unequal combat environment, it is not impossible for the Crusaders to conquer the city and sing all the way...

If fighter jets could be produced, the Great Qin Empire would be able to turn defeat into victory immediately.

There was a strange smile on Zhao Yuan's face. He couldn't figure out why he had such thoughts. Let alone a fighter jet with sophisticated craftsmanship, even a simple firearm cannot be produced in a short time, because , that is a complex industrial system engineering, which involves not only metal smelting, but also biochemistry, machinery, electronics and so on.

Of course, Zhao Yuan can also refine weapons to make firearms. However, one gun and two guns cannot change the fate of the Great Qin Empire. possible to do...

In short, without a complete industrial system, it is impossible to copy the weapons of the earth. Moreover, Zhao Yuan also lacks a high-quality scientific research team, and he himself only understands the scientific civilization on the earth in a literal sense. Industrial manufacturing is basically ignorant.

Of course, even if it was possible, Zhao Yuan would not take action, because he is a cultivator, not an Earthling, and it is impossible for him to spend a lot of time and energy studying the industrial civilization of the Earth.

In addition, Zhao Yuan did not want to bring the pollution of the earth to Zhanyun Continent.

"quack……"

Suddenly, the cloud sea golden eagle on his shoulder let out a warning cry, interrupting Zhao Yuan who was thinking.

Zhao Yuan listened intently, and there was a sound of iron hooves in the distance.

Obviously, there are crusaders galloping here.

With one move of Zhao Yuan's long sleeves, a hurricane was blown out of thin air, and all the corpses and sundries on the ground were swept into the sky, and then burned into a raging fire. In just a blink of an eye, the dozens of corpses were all swallowed up by the fire and turned into illusions. For a wisp of smoke...

The raging flames were gradually extinguished, and the grassland became quiet, as if nothing had happened. However, the blood-stained grass reminded people that a brutal massacre once took place here.

The eyes of a group of space hunters changed from horror to fanatical worship.

"let's go!"

Zhao Yuan rode his horse first and galloped away in the opposite direction of the pursuers.

Currently, with the situation still unclear, Zhao Yuan didn't want to go head-to-head with the Crusaders. After all, he was a cultivator, so he still had to follow some rules and not kill mortals on a large scale.

In the history of comprehension, there are many gods and cultivators who intervene in human wars, but the intervention has certain limits. For example, most cultivators will only fight with the generals of the opponent, and rarely participate in the massacre between the two armies.

Zhao Yuan can also intervene in the battle between the Great Qin Empire and the Crusaders. After all, there are some strange people on the other side, and there is no problem in intervening. However, it is human soldiers who really decide the outcome of the two armies, because they want to occupy a vast territory Well, to defend a huge city, we still rely on human fighters. One or two practitioners may be able to achieve partial victories, but it is difficult to play a decisive role.

Usually, cultivators and gods intervene in human wars mainly to serve as an example, to inspire the fighting spirit of human soldiers, and to make soldiers believe that their supernatural powers can help them win, thus fighting more bravely.

In fact, we can see the clues from some ancient books on the earth. In the "Fengshen Bang", the generals who lead troops to fight every time, the winning side must be inspired by the army, and the momentum is like a tiger. The generals of the defeated side are mostly soldiers. Defeated like a mountain, collapsed at the touch of a touch...

If it is really just who is more powerful than the cultivators, then there is no need for hundreds of thousands or even millions of human troops. After all, a cultivator can kill countless human beings with just a single supernatural power.

Generally speaking, the war between human beings can only be guided by cultivators, but cannot be directly decided. The outcome of victory depends on ordinary human beings in the end.

If you want to change the situation of the Great Qin Empire, you must first regroup the soldiers of the Great Qin Empire and take back one city after another...

……

Zhao Yuan suddenly reined in his horse, because there was a small town in front of him.

A group of hunters stood quietly behind Zhao Yuan.

The hunters in the meteorite belt all knew about the Great Qin Empire in the Zhanyun Continent from Zhao Yuan, so they all knew that they could not give any advice, everything was based on Zhao Yuan's decision.

After thinking about the familiar time, Zhao Yuan made a decision,

Go into town and have a look.

Only by approaching the crowd can one learn the true information of the Great Qin Empire.
