Rebirth of the Three Kingdoms: Da Qiao doesn't want to be a widow anymore

Chapter 75 I found what I wanted to do
Qiao Wei was still a little afraid to face the corpse, after all, it was a biological instinct.

Especially seeing the corpses piled up together, and the smell of blood rushed straight to the sky, Qiao Wei almost spit out all the bile.

The coolies in the labor camp will clean up the corpses from the battlefield, and take back all the armor, arrows and all weapons on the corpses, which are also part of the spoils of war.

Then the corpse was buried on the spot, but Qiao Wei suggested that it would be better to burn it, otherwise the improperly buried corpse would easily cause the spread of the disease.

The level of medical care in this era is really not very high. An outbreak of an epidemic may cause a city's survival rate to be only one in ten, and even the dead bodies of the epidemic may cause a new epidemic disaster.Most of these medical illnesses are cured without the support of drugs, and can only survive by relying on the person's own immunity.

In the era of cold weapons, population is still the last word. After all, the development of technological level is not enough to shake the dominant position of population in war.

Sun Yi was responsible for escorting the surrendered generals and soldiers of the Guangling Army to form a new team, which was under Sun Yi's jurisdiction. Sun Yi, the "bare" captain, finally had his first army.

Qiao Wei sat with several military supply clerks, focusing on the statistics of the recovery of equipment after the war and the casualty rate of soldiers. Qiao Wei's main concern was the recovery rate of bow arrows and the casualty rate of soldiers.

Zhou Gu was very puzzled to see that Qiao Wei insisted on dividing the categories of arrows recovered into those recovered from corpses, those recovered from surrendered generals, and those recovered from the battlefield.After all, in the past, it was only necessary to count how many arrows were recovered before they could be used for public use.

Qiao Wei also patiently explained, "The recovery of arrows can tell the hit rate of crossbows to a certain extent, which has a certain reference value for the transformation of crossbows." After all, the more arrows can be recovered, especially The more arrows recovered from corpses and enemy generals, the higher the hit rate of crossbows is to a certain extent.

Of course, this data should be estimated together with the data of the distance between the two sides on the battlefield at that time, so that we can roughly know what the real effective range of the Liannu is on the battlefield, and whether its role on the battlefield can be improved.

After all, there will still be a certain difference between the experimental data and the practical data on the battlefield.

Qiao Wei also specially asked a few crossbow soldiers to ask about their experience in using the crossbow and their suggestions for improving the crossbow.

Sun Quan opened the curtain and returned to the camp. Qiao Wei had a pile of data feedback in front of him, and he couldn't help but tease, "You are busier than me, the general."

Qiao Wei came back to her senses, got up and changed Sun Quan's clothes, "Are we going to enter Guangling City tomorrow?"

"Yes, we still need to set up strict defenses in the city. After crossing Guangling County, we must guard against Xiapi and Pengcheng. Previously, Chen Deng fought me and won by land battles. This time it was Xingba's advice, so Attacking from the east near the sea, taking Jiangdong's advantages and attacking its disadvantages, can achieve this victory.

But the generals under my command are not very good at land warfare, so it is difficult to defend Guangling County. "

Land warfare is different from water warfare. People north of the Yangtze River are mostly good at land warfare, led by cavalry. Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry are the best among the northern cavalry. It is rumored that they can travel hundreds of miles a day and are good at raids. .

However, most of the Jiangdong Army is good at water warfare, and those who are good at land warfare, such as Tai Shici, Chen Wu, etc., are also under Sun Ce's command. Now they are in a stalemate with Runan, Man Chong and others in the land of Shangcai.

It is easy to attack a city, but difficult to defend it. This is what Sun Quan worries about.

"Wu County, Mr. Mo San sent people to send more than [-] skillful crossbows. I roughly estimated that if there are another three months, there should be [-] skillful crossbows that can be equipped."

Sun Quan thought of the effectiveness of the Liannu today, even though he already knew the power of the Liannu, he was still amazed.He also never thought that the actual combat of this ingenious crossbow would be even more brilliant than he imagined.

The number of casualties of the crossbow soldiers under his command was not even one-fifth of the previous one. In just a short cup of tea, all the archers of the enemy army were wiped out, and the opponent's formation was wrecked.

After all, they didn't even give the opponent a chance to change their archers. After the shield team withdrew, the moment the archers were exposed to shoot arrows, the archers and shield players could be shot, and the opponent's battle formation was directly broken, providing a great opportunity for subsequent melee combat. Lots of time and cover support.

The only pity is that the manufacture of such repeated crossbows and ingenious crossbows is really time-consuming, and dozens of them were produced in a month.

Sun Quan's eyes were serious, "Half a year is too long."

Now Sun Ce took advantage of the stalemate between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, and went north to make a surprise attack. Everything is very fast.

The war between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao could break out at any time, and it could end at any time, because neither Cao Cao nor Yuan Shao could afford to spend half a year on food and grass, and of course Sun Ce was the same.

So if they can't continue to go north and enter Xuchang within two months, then the opportunity to attack the emperor will be lost, and Jiangdong will not be able to go any further in a short time.

It's not that Qiao Wei is unaware of this, but the fine craftsmanship of the ingenious crossbow is beyond the grasp of ordinary craftsmen, not to mention Mr. Mo San may not be willing to hand over the skills to others. It is actually the best if it can be formed into an assembly line.

It is even possible to set up a military factory for this purpose to manufacture wartime equipment for the Jiangdong Army.

Now the Jiangdong Army's equipment is mixed, good and bad, and they can't be uniformly dressed. Most of them are transformed and reshaped after the equipment is captured from various enemy troops after winning the battle.

But if you want to carry out a protracted war, the captured equipment alone cannot meet the needs of the army. The number of artisans in the army is not enough, and the equipment produced is difficult to meet the needs of the army.

The best craftsmen of each dynasty generally give priority to supplying the needs of the court and the army under the jurisdiction of the emperor, followed by the defenders in various places.Now the best craftsmen are also concentrated in Luoyang, Chang'an and Xudu.To be able to get a talent like Mr. Mo San was actually pure luck. If it weren't for the inheritance of the family's craftsmanship and a talented person like Mr. Mo San, Qiao Wei might not be able to do anything with his own strength.

However, the craftsman skills in the Jiangdong Army are indeed insufficient in terms of level and experience, and even the number is insufficient.Sure enough, no matter what era it is, excellent talents are always scarce.

If you want to continue to provide and transform equipment for the military, it is imperative to expand the production scale of the military industry.

Stirrups, iron armor, bows and arrows, spears... Qiao Wei wanted to do too many things, and the efficiency of the Mo family's blacksmith alone could not catch up with her plan.

Qiao Wei quickly found her position and what she wanted to do. She looked firmly at the exhausted Sun Quan, and said her plan with full expectation, "Husband, I want to build a military factory."
