52. Even if there are 50 pigs, [-] cavalrymen go to chop..

In the seventh year of the Great Qin Dynasty, Yingzheng appointed the prince Lin Luo as the general who conquered the north, and went to conquer the nomadic peoples in the north.

In terms of executive power, in the entire feudal dynasty era, no dynasty can say with certainty that it must surpass Daqin.When Daqin, the war machine, was mobilized, it was quite terrifying.

A steady stream of military supplies began to be dispatched to the north.

The First Emperor gave Lin Luo half a month to prepare, and after half a month, he was going to the border.

After leaving Xianyang Palace, Lin Luo went to the Royal Academy of Sciences and brought back some things.

"Is this iron armor?"

In Prince's Mansion, Han Xin was very surprised when he saw what Lin Luo brought back.

He hammered it a few times with his hand, "It's indeed iron armor, and it's all high-quality iron, it's a good thing."

These days, the price of iron is not low, and the soldiers of Daqin still mainly use bronze weapons and armor. Even Han Xin, who has seen a lot of advanced things with Lin Luo, is full of surprise.

"Your Highness, what you said before can be mass-produced, isn't it this?"

Daqin's bronze smelting and forging technology reached its pinnacle, even when it was slashed against iron weapons.

The tough and smart Daqin craftsmen have even begun to chrome-plate weapons.

That is a product that only existed in the era of industrialized civilization.

However, in this era, copper production was limited and could not meet the needs of the army.

Moreover, at present, many of the soldiers of Daqin are still wearing leather armor, and their protection ability on the battlefield is limited.

This greatly limited the combat effectiveness of the Qin army,

Now that there is a way to mass-produce ironware, it is conceivable that when equipped with iron weapons and wearing iron armor, the combat effectiveness of the Qin army will definitely increase several steps.

"Although the workshop of the Royal Academy of Sciences can already produce on a large scale and has a lot of reserves, but the time is limited, and only about [-] sets can be collected before departure."

"In this way, although there are only [-] soldiers, their combat effectiveness is comparable to that of an army of [-]."

Han Xin sighed with emotion, but his face was still full of doubts.

"Your Highness, there are many enemies. Although their hearts are not united, they are an army of more than half a million people. Even if we stand there and let us attack, 1 people will not be able to catch them."

I have to say that normally speaking, there is really nothing wrong with his thinking.Even if there are 50 pigs, 1 people will be exhausted enough to chop them.

"It's okay, I have my own arrangements"

Lin Luo made a fool of himself.

"The Xiongnu, Donghu and others all have a large number of cavalry, and they come and go like the wind." Lin Luo took a few steps forward and came to a pile of iron objects of different shapes. "

"This time the enemy will definitely give full play to their advantages. They will not fight head-on with the sharp soldiers of the Qin army with powerful crossbows. Instead, they will make full use of their maneuverability. If we cannot catch up with them, we will definitely fail. Therefore, although Meng Tian has 30 soldiers There are thousands of troops, but more than 20 are infantry. The best strategy is to rely on the Great Wall for defense. If you want to take the initiative to attack and really defeat the enemy, you can only rely on cavalry.”

Han Xin was silent.

Although Daqin had cavalry, the cavalry only really played a role in the Battle of Changping that year, when five thousand cavalry cut off Zhao Kuo's food supply.

However, in the later wars of destroying the country, most of the time, the cavalry only appeared as surprise soldiers or auxiliary soldiers.

On the one hand, it is because the technical requirements of cavalry are higher, and the time period for training cavalry is too long.On the other hand, the combat thinking of the army is still in the past and has not been completely transformed.

Lin Luo is naturally very clear about this.So he has other plans.

"These are the artifacts to strengthen the cavalry!"

"Your Highness, what is this?"

Han Xin looked suspiciously at some iron plates and stirrups on the ground.

"Three Artifacts of the Cavalry!"

Looking at the puzzled eyes of his number one general, Lin Luo didn't talk nonsense, and asked someone to lead a horse over.

Then two craftsmen were called in to shoe the horse.

Lin Luo personally placed the saddles and stirrups on the backs of these majestic horses.

In this era, the cavalry war horses of the Qin State had saddles, bridles and reins on the horses' heads, but they were still inferior to mature saddles and stirrups.

Lin Luo invented this kind of thing a long time ago, but it has been kept secret. Even the horses of his guards are not equipped with these, just to keep it secret.

After all, this world is very complicated. If the northern nomads knew about this kind of thing in advance, Lin Luo would definitely not want to see it.

Several workshops of the Royal Academy of Sciences are under the control of Lin Luo. He has people secretly build them, and has prepared thousands of sets in advance.Now, Daqin, the war machine, is fully mobilized, the workshop is running at full capacity, and production is streamlined. Wait a few more days, and [-] sets of equipment will not be a big problem.

"Go, walk around the Martial Arts Field"

There is a small martial arts arena in the Prince's Mansion, and Lin Luo asked people to throw some broken items in the martial arts arena.

"Get on the horse and run a few laps"

Han Xinxin already had some guesses in his heart, and he galloped around the martial arts field on horseback.

After running several laps, he dismounted happily and looked at the horse's hooves.

"Your Highness, this is indeed an artifact. This small piece of iron not only protects the horse's hooves, but also the things on the horse's back are of great use. Even if you are a beginner, you won't fall off when you get on the horse. Moreover, in battle, With these artifacts, it is definitely a lot more convenient.”

"In the past, there were cavalry in various countries, but many horses could not fight because their hooves were cracked, and it took a long time to train a cavalry. Now that we have these three things, not only the consumption of horses has been greatly reduced, the key It is the time to train cavalry that is greatly reduced.”

There was a light in his eyes: "Not only that, but it also increases the stamina and endurance of the horse. Even in harsh terrains such as deserts, mountains, and bushes, it can walk like flying."

"Your Highness, these three things of yours have cleared the way for Daqin to equip cavalry on a large scale. This is definitely an unprecedented revolution!"

Han Xin was very excited. As a master of military art and strategy, he has a good understanding of the three cavalry artifacts.It has to be said that Han Xin's strategic vision in the military is very unique. He immediately thought of many uses for the three items that Lin Luo took out.

In the future, facing those nomads who come and go freely, Daqin no longer needs to defend with infantry, but can take the initiative to attack

The combat effectiveness of the cavalry of the Qin Army equipped with these equipments is definitely several times that of the Huns and others.

Not only that, even in the Baiyue area to the south of Great Qin, the cavalry can walk like flying and sweep away powerful enemies.

53. Huns?In my view, it is like a chicken and a dog..

It has been more than ten days since the first emperor issued the order and Lin Luo issued the military order. Seeing that he was about to go north to march, Lin Luo needed to appease the people in the mansion before setting off.

After all, no matter what era, fighting a war is not an easy thing, not an outing for fun. Even if Lin Luo is not worried about safety, no matter if it is Lu Zhi, Lu Su, or Xue Nu, he is not going to take them north with them.

Moreover, fighting these days is not about taking a train or flying a plane. Although Lin Luo is powerful and can come and go freely, the speed of ten thousand cavalry is not so fast. For a little longer, sending troops to fight is calculated in units of years.

It is worth mentioning that after living together for such a long time, even Xue Nu and Duan Murong, who were hostile to Lin Luo before, have let go of their obsessions.

Concubine Yan and Gao Yue recognized each other, and the two lived in the son's mansion every day. There are many people here who are safe and have no worries about food and clothing. Everyone speaks nicely and is kind. There is also Lin Luo, the overbearing master. Not going anywhere.

..............

A few days later, Lin Luo got the Tiger Talisman from the First Emperor, and set off for the far north, ready to meet the challenge and solve the scourge of the Xiongnu that plagued the Great Qin.

Accompanying him were Fan Kuai, Xia Houying, Han Xin, Xiao He, Cao Can and two hundred guards from the Prince's Mansion.

Heading north along the Qinzhi Road, surrounded by a mighty convoy of supplies.

With Zulong's order, Daqin's various strategic resources were continuously transported to the northern line of the Great Wall, in order to support Lin Luo in this battle.

At this moment, Daqin's terrifying war machine was fully mobilized, and its size was unique in this era.Even in the 5000-year history, there are only a handful of dynasties that can have the war efficiency and morale of the Great Qin.

Jiuyuan County, the northern terminus of Qinzhi Road.

Since the Great Qin unified the world, in order to resist the invasion and aggression of the Huns in the north, the Great Qin mobilized countless manpower and material resources to carry out full-scale construction in Shangjun, Jiuyuan County, and Yunzhong County.

Jiuyuan County is the foothold of Lin Luo's northern attack on the Huns this time. He will integrate the army here, carry out basic supplies, and then go out to the north, straight into the hinterland of the Huns.

Thanks to the cement invented by Lin Luo, Jiuyuan County has been transformed into a majestic city.The outer wall is indestructible, and its defense ability has been improved several times compared to before, which made the Huns who often plundered before hate their teeth itchy.

The city wall built with adobe, masonry and cement is more than ten meters high, and there are more than [-] troops and residents in the city.

Because of the family planning policy vigorously promoted by Daqin, all families with more than three children will be rewarded. The local government will allocate land for them and let them open up wasteland by themselves. In the past two years, Daqin launched an unprecedented policy of conferring titles on women. Those who have more than seven children will be conferred titles on women, which has once again stimulated countless people in Qin.Every night, the whole city is filled with the sound of hard work.

In this era, if you want to completely control a piece of land, you can only rely on garrisons, settlements, and a sustainable increase in the main population.Therefore, all kinds of people's livelihood policies in the entire northern Great Wall are more attractive than other places in Daqin.

The barracks in the city had gathered the most elite [-] cavalrymen selected by Meng Tian.

A large number of soldiers, horses and supplies gathered in Jiuyuan County, coupled with the caravans that moved after hearing the news, the whole Jiuyuan County was very lively.

After Lin Luo arrived, he showed the Tiger Talisman to Meng Tian, ​​and the two handed over immediately.

Although I agree with Lin Luo going north to the Great Wall and taking the initiative to attack the Xiongnu, Donghu and other forces, neither Ying Zheng nor Meng Tian and others are optimistic about this. Although the first emperor hoped that Lin Luo would win with a word, but the perennial experience of destroying the six kingdoms taught him to understand With such a disparity in military strength, Lin Luo's victory is simply as difficult as heaven.

Therefore, Ying Zheng ordered Meng Tian to set up a line of defense on the front line of the Great Wall. On the one hand, he would do a good job of defense to prevent the Huns from attacking the West on a large scale. On the other hand, he would send troops to support Lin Luo in time depending on the situation. Lost.

Seeing Meng Tian who hesitated to speak, Lin Luo smiled.Without thinking too much, he probably guessed what the other party wanted to say.

"General Meng has something on his mind, but it doesn't matter."

"Your Highness, according to the latest situation, the Xiongnu, Donghu, and Yuezhi people have joined together, and their military strength is even more than 50. The military might is very powerful. I don't know how Your Highness plans to use the troops."

"Although the Xiongnu and others are heavy, they are nothing more than chickens and dogs in my opinion. As soon as our Daqin cavalry comes out, they will throw away their helmets and armor and kneel down to beg for surrender."

Meng Tian: "..."

Lin Luo's tone was indifferent, Meng Tian frowned, this Ninth Prince shouldn't be such a reckless person.Frankly speaking, not only him, but the entire civil and military officials of the Great Qin Dynasty, including His Majesty the Emperor, were not optimistic about Lin Luo's dispatch of troops this time, so Meng Tian was worried about the safety of Lin Luo and the [-] Great Qin elites.

If these soldiers are lost on the battlefield, although it will not seriously damage the vitality of Da Qin, it will definitely shake the government and the public.The Xiongnu and others, Ye Hui's morale has greatly increased, and they will definitely raid along the northern border at that time, and there may be several more battles.

Moreover, if Lin Luo was captured or even killed, he would definitely not want to see it.

"General Meng, there is no need to worry. I will go north to the Great Wall in half a month. At that time, the long defense line of the Great Wall will depend on the general."

...

Meng Tian left with a heart full of thoughts. He didn't think Lin Luo, who is as clever as Lin Luo, would throw himself into a trap, trap himself in the enemy's siege, and face the danger of his life.

But he couldn't figure out how Lin Luo, who only had [-] cavalry, could fight against an army of more than [-] Huns.
