God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

The facts were almost as Lu Jun had thought. With the help of the labor force of the 36 countries in the Western Regions, and under relevant policies and construction, the rapid development of the Pamir region was proceeding at a terrifying speed.

In the Western Regions, especially in various countries, there are still corresponding craftsmen, technicians, mineral resources, etc.

Each country uses its own system to manufacture, and the size of each country is different. How much power can be mobilized? In the case of insufficient means of production, how much mineral resources can be produced?

But under his leadership, things were completely different.

There is no shortage of relevant technical information, and through reasonable allocation, a large number of personnel can be mobilized to participate, and the relevant roads and passes can be opened up to construct a more complete Pamir Mountains.

"Let's set a small goal first, so that all cavalry can be equipped with corresponding armor..." Lu Jun said with emotion as he looked at the rising black smoke.

The black smoke coming out before our eyes is not the smoke that pollutes the environment, but an auspicious sign of mining refining production.

If it were a normal furnace of the essence of heaven and earth, this kind of black smoke would not be produced at all under the constraints of thermal energy.

But there is no way, after all this is the Western Regions, and there is no way to find the relevant technical personnel to construct the corresponding etching of the essence of heaven and earth.

After all, in today's world, the number of people who can etch and play with the essence of heaven and earth can be counted on the palm of one hand in the Central Plains. As for whether other empires have this concept, it is still a question.

From this perspective, Huang Yueying, who was guided, was worthy of the lost consumables she consumed.

This genius, coupled with almost unlimited support, lost batch after batch of steel before gradually figuring out one etching node after another.

Even if other countries knew about it, they would probably hesitate. After all, steel is something that requires dozens or even hundreds of tons of consumption and testing every time. It needs to be checked and invested again and again. Not every country can afford to squander it.

Even in the Han Empire at this time, there was still a gap in steel demand, but this gap did not seem to be getting bigger.

In a sense, the gradually increasing steel production each year can barely keep up with the increasing steel gap.

Agriculture, military, R&D industry, and even infrastructure engineering are qualified to compete for steel production. Just thinking about it makes me feel that this world is really strange.

In the past, when there was no steel, the country was able to survive well. Now, with the exponential increase in steel production every year, there is still a gap that cannot be filled...

Wan Peng listened to these words, looked at the towering chimneys, then looked at the lake in the distance, and began to doubt his life.

I originally thought that the black lake was outrageous, but I never thought that such a poor and barren area could actually produce steel.

Looking at the real steel in front of him, Wan Peng began to doubt what he was doing before. However, after hearing what was said beside him, he immediately reacted.

"Sir, you are joking. How can we give the soldiers in the Western Regions full armor?" Wan Peng looked around and confirmed that there was no one else, then he spoke cautiously. "What does General Wan mean?" Lu Jun looked at Wan Peng with a sideways gaze, and couldn't help but feel curious.

"They are just auxiliary soldiers. If they are really fully armed, if they have any bad thoughts at that time, the consequences will be very serious. After all, the difference between soldiers wearing armor and those not wearing armor is still very obvious..." Wan Peng cited examples of facts, trying to prove everything he said through such actions and words.

"Now I seem to understand why you are the fifth among the Four Heavenly Kings..." Lu Jun looked at Wan Peng and nodded slightly.

Wan Peng tilted his head and looked at Lu Jun in confusion, totally not understanding the meaning of this sentence.

"There is indeed a big difference between soldiers wearing armor and those not wearing armor, but in terms of defense, are the Xiliang Iron Cavalry really weaker than those fully armored soldiers?" Lu Jun pointed to the grassland in the distance and said with emotion, "What did the Xiliang Iron Cavalry rely on to dominate the world in the past? Was it fully armed armor? Or extremely sharp weapons?"

"Neither. When we were roaming the world in the past, we didn't have these things." Wan Peng told the story of the past without even thinking. At that time, when they were first established, they said they were building a cavalry, but the actual situation was that they only had some guns and didn't even have horses, but they created one of the most elite cavalry units in the world.

The most outrageous thing is that the original dragoons only had rusty tips on their spears, and they had to find spear shafts themselves.

After saying this, Wan Peng was stunned for a moment, looked down at himself, and fell into deep thought.

When did it start? He would face his auxiliary soldiers with this thought.

Could it be that the auxiliary soldiers who he used to treat with disdain and come at will, just because they had some more armor and weapons, could make him feel fearful?

"It seems that General Wan understands. So what should we do now?" Lu Jun looked at Wan Peng who suddenly lowered his head, and said half-perfunctorily with a slightly puzzled tone.

"So that's how it is, I understand, sir." After thinking for a while, Wan Peng nodded seriously and gave a very sincere answer.

"So, can the Xiliang Iron Cavalry you trained really be called the Xiliang Iron Cavalry?" Lu Jun recalled the new recruits Wan Peng had recruited during this period, and it seemed that the troops trained had not made much progress.

Hearing this and thinking of the soldiers he had trained, Wan Peng became even more silent.

According to a very standard training method, some veterans were drawn out and some new recruits were merged in. Through rendering and assimilation, the number of soldiers and the proficiency of their respective talents were increased.

In this case, new recruits can master their defensive talents at a faster rate and thus acquire initial combat effectiveness.

However, the gap between the Xiliang Iron Cavalry trained under this standard and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry trained by Li Jue and others who were free to recruit and train their own people was very large.

It was obvious that Li Jue and others did not spend as much time and effort as he did, but the gap in the troops they trained was very obvious.

Except for the relatively better discipline, the gap in other aspects can be said to be very huge. (End of this chapter)
