Chapter 238 Secret Weapon (Subscribe (T_T))

In fact, there were not too many soldiers who actually attacked this time. Of course, the scale is relatively small. The forces of Liang Shidu in Shuofang City are not very worrying. They only rely on the frontier soldiers from the surrounding states. It is expected to win, and the main target of this trip is the Turkic people who are very likely to come to aid.

The reason why the frontier soldiers have been unable to concentrate on dealing with Shuofang City is mainly because of the restraint of the Turkic cavalry.And as long as Lin Sen and the others beat back the main force of the Turks, Shuofang City will become a turtle in the urn, and there is a high possibility that it will surrender without a fight.Even if they resisted stubbornly, they couldn't bear much time.

But the so-called one thousand people reach the sky, and ten thousand people are boundless.Lin Sen used to only feel a little bit of this when he was playing large-scale war games such as riding and slashing, but after seeing the huge army formation at the assembly point, Lin Sen really felt what it was like. shock.

Tens of thousands of soldiers plus auxiliary soldiers gathered in the temporary camp, which is really boundless. If it weren't for Lin Sen's experience of traveling on long vacations, he has seen the horror of the popular attractions. , I really might not be able to withstand this scene.

After finding the territory of the honor guards with more than a dozen farmers, Lin Sen realized that his thinking was still too simple.

He honestly followed the regulations, and only brought the fifteen most melodies of his level, which made him feel that his formation was exaggerated, because these memoirs came to kill the enemy and make meritorious service, and the credit should be credited to him. On the head, of course, he must give these farmers some rewards after he goes back.

But none of the Xunwei under him is missing dozens of episodes, no wonder Cheng Yaojin must fight for himself a chance to lead the team.

With the subordinates and their guards together, what I am commanding is not a small team at all, but a small army. I am afraid that there can be 800 to [-] people.

Moreover, it goes without saying that anyone who can be a general for the honorable nobles must be a top player, especially at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty. I am afraid that they have fought countless times on the battlefield. With so many experts gathered, this lineup can definitely be called Luxurious, it is enough to be a sharp knife.

Who told this to be such a custom at this time, I have a high rank, so there are more preparations for the trilogy, that is, the number of legal generals is much larger. If there are several officials in the family and they are not separated, the family The number of people can all be superimposed, so even civil servants have a lot of guards in their homes.

Especially those guys from the Guanlong family, there is no shortage of masters in the family, and they are not even worse than those who come from the hands of pure generals.

Of course, although the households raised by the military generals are not in name, there is something wrong with them. These village households are no worse than ordinary soldiers when they pick up swords and guns.

Therefore, the number of this part only limits the number of guards they can bring with them when they go out to battle. After all, their credit must be placed on the Patriarch, which is not counted in the number of soldiers in the army.

The story of the three hundred warriors of Sparta, which was widely circulated in later generations, selectively ignored the thousands of war slaves under them.

It is also the custom at this time for these sons and guards to bring a large number of guards to battle. The nobles want to send their sons to the battlefield to exercise and earn more meritorious service. They are not sent to die. There is no comprehensive arrangement , How can they let them take risks.

In this sense, it is normal for ordinary people not to be able to compete with these descendants of martial arts. No matter how much you can fight and kill alone, can you compare to dozens of veterans helping others to get credit? With the speed of taking credit, it is only natural that you get promoted faster.

Lin Sen suffers because there are only so many places in his family's trilogy, and besides, they are all in the army, so they can't go back to Zhuangzi to recruit people. Fortunately, all of them under his hands are one against one hundred. The fierce man, the master of the real masters, is not afraid that he will not be able to compete with the gang of guards under him.

When Lin Sen and his group came over, the guards around the honored guards subconsciously surrounded their respective young masters and put on a defensive posture. It can be seen that the farmers selected by Lin Sen put pressure on them. How old is it.

They are all ruthless people who have waded through the sea of ​​blood and corpses, and they will only react like this when they encounter those real killers.

But Xi Weizhong and the others glanced at these people, still indifferent in their eyes, surrounding Lin Sen, still with the original virtue, silently sorting out his things.

Compared with the group of honor guards under his command who were all from good families, Lin Sen even prepared more and more detailed things. Naturally, he had to make an inventory before setting off for the battlefield.

As Lin Sen and the others sorted out one by one, even the well-informed guards were a little surprised and envious. Lin Sen really had too many good things that could be seen here. I couldn't help but feel a little moved.

Lin Sen and his armor are very inconspicuous, and did not attract the attention of the guards. In fact, it is Lin Sen's biggest reliance. He has upgraded these things again, replacing the original iron birch material with factual Harder quebracho wood, which is really the hardest wood known.

There is a way to test the hardness of wood in later generations, which is to measure the force required to press a steel ball with a diameter of 444 inches into half of the wood surface, expressed in pounds or cattle, and is called Jianka hardness.

Iron birch, which is said to be twice as hard as ordinary steel, is said to be similar to ebony and black ironwood in this respect, both weighing more than 3000 pounds, but white queer wood weighs nearly [-] pounds!

In other words, it takes more than two tons of force to press half of the steel ball in.

Considering that the bullets used in many muskets used to be about the same diameter as this steel ball, it can basically be said that even muskets cannot penetrate such wood.

Moreover, the density of quebracho wood is still relatively small, so Lin Sen upgraded it and replaced it with this lighter and stronger material.

In addition, the previous rugby protective gear also inspired Lin Sen. He specially added a layer of cork to the inner layer of the white hardwood plate armor, so that whether it is facing the attack of sharp or blunt weapons, This set of armor can have a relatively comprehensive protection.

Of course, helmets, visors and shields with similar structures are indispensable.

Anyway, in addition to riding the takin, Lin Sen also prepared two tall war horses, which are usually used to help carry a lot of equipment.

The farmers who came with him were also equipped with one man and three horses. After all, the main target of the attack was probably the Turkic cavalry, and the mounts should not be at a disadvantage. He still had the intention of chasing the enemy.

He didn't forget to bring all his secret weapons with him. If the situation is unfavorable, he always needs some cards to save his life, so he can be more at ease in his heart. No one can guarantee that he will win steadily in the battlefield, right?

Those guards under his command could not help being envious because they understood the functions of some of them.

　There is another large-scale event in the unit today, and I am still working hard overtime, and then I have been running around naked for the past few weeks, and there is no recommendation. Look at it, it has been reduced by one-third, even half of what it was when it was first launched. There are no new subscriptions, which is really heartbreaking. I hope I can survive this month...
