Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 46
For more than a month, the surrounding area of ​​Heiyun Mountain was full of vitality.

This year, there is too much rain, and the crops in the fields are growing gratifyingly. With their heads down heavily, the sorrowful look on people's faces is gradually fading away.

In plowing and fighting, you can only plow the fields, and there is chaos everywhere, wild animals are raging, and you must master certain military skills.

There are 730 people in Heiyun Mountain. Excluding more than 300 old and weak people, there are still more than 1 people who can hold swords and spears.

All the people are soldiers is a must.

Now that we have taken up the banner of expelling Jie Nu and restoring our country, we will definitely fight again with Jie people in the future.

It is also impossible for Heiyun Mountain to occupy an inch of Xingyang forever.

During the slack season, Li Yue and Zhou Qian divided the mountain crowd into 700 groups, each with [-] to [-] people.

The reserve officers were all cast down and organized their training.

Spears, knives, bows, shields...

These days, as long as you are a person, you will play these tricks.

Even women and half-grown children can rush to kill with a knife, and some disabled soldiers with severed arms and legs are even more diligent.

Li Yue simply took out the bow in the arsenal, and cut some wooden sticks to use as arrows for them to practice.

Try to eat dry meals for two meals a day. The scouts caught wild sheep, wild boars, and wild deer from Hujuchuan. The meat was given priority to satisfy the soldiers, but the bones and internal organs were boiled into soup for them, and some oil and water could also be stained.

When a person is full, he has strength.

Some shrews can run around Heiyun Mountain twice with bare feet and come back without panting.

Li Yue immediately organized a women's battalion of 200 people and handed it over to Yue Ji to take care of her. She patrolled the mountains and hunted, maintained law and order on the mountains, and mediated disputes.

This is not Li Yue's first creation.

Shi Hu ordered several times to forcibly summon tens of thousands of civilian women to enter Ye, set up female officials in the palace, divided into 24 ranks, 70 ranks in the East Palace, and more than [-] Jieren princes and princes were divided into [-] ranks.

The crown prince Shixuan and the kings and private orders of the Jie people have nearly ten thousand beauties selected.

Shihu selected thousands of daughters as the brine book and set up a women's camp. They all wore purple scarves, brocade trousers, gold and silver belts, and five-textured boots, but the meaning of their existence was to accompany Shihu in lust...

Get busy and the days fly by.

In less than half a month, the militiamen looked good, not very elite, but it was not a big problem to assist in guarding the mountain.

Looking at their weapons, Li Yue suddenly felt something.

Jie people are all heavily armored, and ordinary swords and spears cannot hurt them. The quality of the swords and spears on the mountain is really worrying. They can't even split a stone and break easily.

Armor-piercing objects are either long spears or heavy objects.

You don't need to think about the long lance, it is not easy to build, and it is even more difficult to train, so you can only consider heavy objects.

Stones became his daily training. A stone weighing fifteen or six catties was moved up the mountain from the middle of the mountain.

The carpenters also made four or five simple catapults, which were bulky and rough, with a short range, causing problems at every turn. The mountain was not open to begin with, so placing them would block people, so it would be better for people to move stones and throw them down.

Li Yue didn't think about it anymore, and asked the mountain people to pile up more stones at Wubao and several intersections.

There are not many mountain people who have practiced to this level, so they can't be expected to go down the mountain to form a bloody battle with the well-equipped Jie people, right?

Therefore, the soldiers who need to improve their weapons most are soldiers.

This naturally did not bother Li Yue as a time traveler.

Guduo, hand hammer and mace came into being.

Guduo and hand hammers are considered traditional weapons. They existed in the Shang and Zhou dynasties. In the Han and Wei dynasties, they were reduced to ceremonial utensils, and they were also used as tools for killing cattle.

The lighter ones are seven or eight catties, and the heavier ones are fifteen or six catties.

Guduo is actually a long-handled hammer, also known as a pumpkin.

The most ferocious is the mace, the head of which is made of iron and pierced by a wooden handle, which can be long or short.

There are 500 catties of iron in the Baoshui Fort, more than 5000 catties were used to forge farm tools, and there are more than [-] catties left, plus the broken knives, broken spears, etc. collected on the battlefield, all of which can be returned to the furnace for smelting.

Whether it is a bone, a hammer, or a mace, the quality of the iron is not high, and the forging technology is even more unnecessary, and it does not need to be accidental, just stupid and thick.

In two days, three blacksmiths produced seven samples.

Li Yue picked up a mace, found a stone and went down with the stick, and the stone chips flew around.

Wei Shan and Xu Cheng immediately saw the value of this thing on the battlefield. It was tailor-made for the Jie people. Wei Shan often suffered in front of the soldiers of the Jie people. Rampant! There is no need to lose so many brothers on the mountain."

Xu Chengdao: "The one who can move this thing on the battlefield must be a wrestler."

Li Yue said: "Then choose a warrior and train them strictly!"

The soldiers ate and drank well, and after two months, they became much stronger.

In fact, the physical fitness of the Han people has always been good. During the Han and Wei Dynasties, they were eight feet tall at every turn. Li Yue thought it was just a bragging of the literati, but when he came to this world, he realized that this was not the case.

Many people are no less tall than later generations, but they are only malnourished, so they appear thin.

In addition to equipment advantages, physical advantages are also reasons that cannot be ignored.

Li Yue has met the Jie, Di, Qiang, Wuhuan and other tribes, and they are on average shorter than the Han people by a head.

Of course, in the past few decades, the Jie people have been riding on the heads of the Han people, eating hot and spicy food, and their physical fitness has caught up a bit.

A total of 6000 heavy weapons were melted out of more than [-] catties of iron, and the remaining iron was used to make triangular armor-piercing arrows according to Li Yue's requirements.

Li Yue remembers that there were iron mines in the Funiu Mountain system, and South Korea, a small place among the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, was called Jinhan because of the strong crossbow made by Yiyang Iron Mountain.

Su Qin said: "Korea is more than [-] miles away, with hundreds of thousands of armour, and the world's strongest bows, crossbows, and sharp swords all come from Han."

Yiyang is to the west of Luoyang, and Li Yue can't reach it, but Luyang, to the south of Xingyang, is the place where Li Ju fell off the cliff. It is the famous Pingding Mountain in later generations. It not only has iron, but also coal!
No matter ancient or modern wars, what is fought is steel.

Jie Zhao runs rampant in the world, also relying on strong armor and sharp blades.

However, it is a bit difficult to win Luyang now. Mixian, Xinzheng, and Chonggao (Dengfeng) in the south block the way, and Xuchang is eyeing in the southwest.

Jie Zhao's governor of Yuzhou was located in Xuchang, and he had a heavy army.

Don't even think about it at this stage.

Li Yue can only send scouts to search for it in Funiu Mountain, and it doesn't need to be too big, a small iron mine is enough.

There are more than 1 people in Heiyun Mountain, and it is not difficult to find 700 warriors. Zhou Qian found [-] people.

Li Yue can only add one more, that he has a blood feud with Jie people, even so, there are still 500 people.

"Let's talk about it before, and you will be in front of the battle in the future. You must think clearly!"

None of the 500 people retreated.

Cao Kan roared angrily: "I've long regarded myself as a dead person, and I just want to kill more Jie slaves to avenge my dead parents!"

He was originally tall, but now that he could eat food and meat, he quickly became stronger.

During this period of time, Li Yue actually let the scouts observe him in secret. He is still a useful person with a lot of courage. He actively cooperates with Li Yue's various orders, and works hard no matter whether it is training or land reclamation.

There are really no people around, so I don't have time to pick and choose, so I was directly promoted to a hundred generals.

The other two hundred men will be selected from the alternate officers.

A group of heavy armor soldiers directly under Li Yue was formed.

Each of them carried more than 40 kilograms of iron armor, and carried more than ten kilograms of bones, hammers, and maces, as if they were human iron beasts.

If you don’t have heavy weapons, use a stone stick or wooden stick to practice first. If you don’t have iron armor, put on two layers of leather armor to deal with it first, and then add it later.
