Country and Beauty

The night wind was cold and everyone had long fallen asleep. Only the Da Jin Emperor, Sima Chi, had not slept at all as she stared at the ceiling for a long time without saying anything.

Although most of the people had long fallen asleep, Sima Chi was not the only one who had lost sleep. She was the granddaughter of the Changshui Academy Officer Pei Gui, the daughter of the Master Tutor, as well as the granddaughter of the Grand Commandant Wang Yan. Actually, at that time, Sima Yue was the strongest in his clan, and belonged to his faction, so no one could do anything to him. The plot needs to be scrawled) is equally tortuous. Grand Commandant Wang Yan did the same.

After supporting Pei Xian and Xun Chuo, Xie Fei fell into deep thought.

As the two armies battled, although the courage and morale of the soldiers were important, the weapons were not to be underestimated.

Xie Fei thought about the Luoyang's battle. Although the main reason for the Black Shirt Army's heavy casualties was because of the large number of enemies, the most important reason was that the Black Shirt Army still did not have any sharp weapons. Although the horizontal blade was sharp, it was still too short in length. One inch long, one inch strong, one inch short, one inch dangerous. Xie Fei thought that he must modify the current equipment.

Of course, compared to the Qu Yang, the Luoyang's metallurgical skills were much higher. Xie Fei began to plan his path of the elite soldiers.

Xie Fei designed a new type of weapon, the Great Ax. The shape of the axe was completely different from the axes that already existed. The entire axe was more than six feet long, with three feet long handle, four feet as axe blade, two sides as blade, the top was a trident tip, imitating the trident military weapon of the later generation, the whole axe was similar to the legendary triple-eyed trident blade, the middle ridge was very thick, the lance, spear, lance, these types of weapons were all assassination weapons, if there were mounted soldiers charging, their power would be quite extraordinary, but in close combat or chaotic combat, their power was insufficient. In fact, after the cavalry charged into the enemy ranks, the several meter long spears, spears, lances and other kinds of assassination weapons lost their value. In a mixed battle, the advantages of knights lay only in the high advantages of heavy armor and horseback riding. On the other hand, the giant ax that Xie Fei designed was different. Not only was the length of the axe long, the key point was that the giant axe could not only assassinate, but it could also be hacked and swung. This huge axe weighed thirty-six pounds. Made of fine steel.

It could be imagined that if a soldier were to wield such a huge axe, the edge of the axe would be incomparably sharp. In addition to the weight of the axe, one swing of the axe would definitely be able to hack the enemy cavalry leader and his horse into two!

The origin of the axe was very early, and the primitive man knew that the pick-up stone was a cleaver. As for the earliest copper axes, they were seen in the Shang Dynasty. Not only were they used for martial affairs, but they were also carved in an extremely exquisite manner. They had already been used for ceremonial purposes. Zhou Dynasty is inferior to Shang Dynasty with the axe wind, to the double-edged sword, and after the blade used, the axe is used even less, only as a cutting tool, or as a musical dance ritual and killing tool. At the same time, the axe and spear were also one of the ancient battles. The Yellow Emperor was known as the Axe, which was used not only as a weapon but also as a tool of punishment. The name of the written sentence was: Yellow Emperor's Five Punishments, Four Day Axes. According to five punishments, they were armored soldiers, saber saws, drilling, axes, whipping, and so on. As such, the axe began in the era of the Yellow Emperor. It could be said that it had a long history.

However, a huge axe weighing 36 jins would take a lot of effort for an ordinary person to wield, much less use it to kill an enemy. This kind of weapon couldn't be equipped by the entire army. One had to have the courage to use it. Looking at the entire Black Shirt Army, even if a soldier with such a huge axe were to choose even one out of ten, it would still be very difficult! The Xianbei member was a white race, with a large stature and astonishing arm strength. Ordinary Chinese people would only be seven feet tall, but the Xianbei member was generally at most eight feet tall. As long as they trained a little, they would be able to fight and kill their enemies.

Xie Fei thought again, although the sharpness of the weapon was important, and must not be underestimated in terms of self-defense, in Black Shirt Army, other than the heavy cavalry, the rest of the troops were all light cavalry s, but the heavy armors of the Western Lion Cavalry were not enough for the original Beigong Chun troops. When two armies fought, the first thing they would do was to take the brunt of the attack, with their entire bodies protected, it was true that it would reduce the casualties of the soldiers, but since it had come to this way, they would definitely sacrifice their defense capability. Xie Fei designed a new type of heavy armor that was specially designed for the Heavy Axe Regiment. The appearance of the armor wasn't too different from the current heavy armor, it was mainly because it strengthened the defensive power on the front, and compared to the Western Lion Cavalry's heavy armor, it was a little heavier, reaching sixty-six kilograms. The entire set of equipment for the Giant Axe Regiment was the heavy armor of the Huge Axe Regiment.

Xianbei member was a typical nomadic peoples. This was the characteristic of the Great Ax Squad.

In a top-down swing, a weapon with a thick blade like an axe would be more powerful and less prone to being chopped down. Moreover, in this situation, the value of a backhand strike wasn't very high either. Axes have blades that can kill unarmored or unarmored enemies — by comparison with swords, axes can shatter bones and cause severe contusion in the wound (Thick Blades). They can also use higher kinetic energy to kill enemies in armor or even plate armor. The axe can break the chain of the chain armor, so that the chain can be embedded in the wound, resulting in infection and incurable wounds. Even if the armor cannot be broken, the axe can use its own kinetic energy to cause blunt wounds. The traditional axe was the best weapon against the cavalry, and it could also very easily strike up the shield and then down … But the axe, compared with the sword, is its greatest disadvantage (and in some respects its advantage), and therefore does not apply in close combat (for example, the castle), while the infantry must use a one-handed axe with a shield, or equip themselves with a second sword. However, Xie Fei's Giant Axe had the advantages mentioned above. It might not have no flaws, but compared to it, it was nothing to worry about.

Xie Fei spent almost an entire night to design the blueprints for the two types of weapons. To Ning Dan's wutong tank s and Zhuge Liuyun's crossbow, they would definitely need a large amount of equipment and troops. Money was everything, and money was absolutely not enough. Xie Fei was also worrying about money.

Even Sima Chi's reward money, other than for the family members of the soldiers who died in battle and for the soldiers who were given out, was not much. In order to save money, Xie Fei had only designed five hundred sets of heavy armors, and he had also made five hundred sets of huge axes. Other people becoming an official were all so that they could get rich, but Xie Fei had actually put in all of the rewards that Sima Chi had specifically given him.

On the morning of the next day, Xie Fei ordered some people to find a blacksmith from the entire city. There were nearly a thousand ironworks of Luoyang that were big in size, and Xie Fei ordered some people to hire over two thousand famous blacksmiths from the Luoyang. In the backyard of the General's Residence, there were two gardens as big as football fields. Xie Fei ordered his men to remove all the flowers and plants, and according to what he had done in his previous life, there were fifty or so Earth Refining Furnace laid out in the open area. At this moment, there were two thousand blacksmiths working on iron in full swing, and the knocking and yelling sounds resounded in the air.

After all, the blacksmiths were all skilled talents, so Xie Fei would definitely not leave them in the Luoyang.

While forging the new type of giant axe and heavy armor, Xie Fei ordered his men to melt all the weapons they had captured on the battlefield into iron ingots. Towards those barbarian weapons, Xie Fei did not really like them, but steel was the most precious resource of that era.

It was almost noon when the first gigantic axe was completed. Xie Fei looked at the gigantic axe in front of him, and his heart couldn't help but feel a sense of longing. He wanted to see the spectacular sight of his subordinates wielding gigantic axes on the battlefield.

Xie Fei also gathered all the generals of the Black Shirt Army and two Masters for a meeting, even Ning Dan was invited.

Xie Fei first introduced the current situation he was in, and of course, the situation was extremely advantageous for Black Shirt Army. Black Shirt Army had experienced several huge battles in a row, and the losses were extremely great, adding that the You Yi and Qing Prefectures were not set in stone, even if they successfully settled the three prefectures, they would still need to expend a lot of effort to completely control the three prefectures, so Black Shirt Army was unable to return to the Central Plains for a short period of time.

Xie Fei asked: "If we were to go according to the original plan, how much military power would be required to first pacify the entire Azure Province!"

"According to the current fighting strength of the general, we need at least 30,000 men and 150,000 men for new recruits!" Xun Chuo replied without hesitation.

"Oh!" Xie Fei replied softly. He nodded his head and started pondering. After a while, he raised his head and asked: Jing Si, what do you think of this problem?

Pei Xian said: "This subordinate agrees, there is a law for troops, a plan for troops. In this exchange, he would attack the next city! He had no choice but to use the siege method. Therefore those who use troops well will yield to men, not to war, but to the city of men, and not to attack it. Destroying a country, not for long. He will fight for all under the heavens, so he will not stop until he has gained everything. This method of planning an attack was also very suitable. If a general wants to take the Azure Province, he might not necessarily have to attack the city. "

Xie Fei nodded his head, he was completely unaware of Pei Xian's reasoning, but Xie Fei still patiently said: "I want to use my lightning like power to sweep through the entire Cyan Plains, quickly pacify the entire Cyan Plains, and use it as our base to quickly increase my strength."

"Of course it is to kill chickens and respect monkeys, and strike the mountain and shake the tiger!" Pei Xian said in a righteous manner.

Xie Fei coughed dryly a few times, before saying indifferently: "It's still too early to say all this now. Your Majesty ordered someone to send a sacred dictum this morning, ordering me to recruit troops on the spot to prepare the Luoyang City for defense." Xie Fei thought for a moment and suddenly said: "I plan to expand the army, what do you think?"

Xie Fei was not surprised by this, but he had the same idea.

"As General commands!" Everyone said in unison.

Xie Fei nodded his head, then said: "I plan to build a Heavy Infantry Cavalry Amphibian Soldiers, and select them from the various armies. The first point is, they must be eight feet tall, with a large build, and with extraordinary arm strength."

Everyone was stunned when they heard it, and they all looked at Xie Fei with questioning gazes. Xie Fei said in a disapproving manner: "When the time comes, everyone will know, and we will also organize the various departments. In order to respond to sudden wars and adapt to war needs, the first from the first to the first battalion of the Black Shirt Army were converted into a group of Black Shirt Army. The whole army consisted of more than ten thousand people, the Second Ba Teer Tribe Baloo Warriors, as well as the recruited Fresh Subordinate and Karma Tribesmen, became the Holy Wolf Army.

Xie Fei's gaze suddenly turned towards Ning Dan, causing Ning Dan's heart to tremble, thinking that Xie Fei might be plotting against her Fly. However, Ning Dan remained calm at this moment. She said, "General, you don't need to be so formal. The Zhuge family fully supports the general, including all manpower and material resources."

Receiving Ning Dan's confirmation, Xie Fei said: "The original Fly s were transformed into the Blood Blade Camp s, with the Battalion Commander Zhang Ju and Vice Battalion Commander Wang Huai. Furthermore, Qi Yu, the original commander of the Black Shirt Army's scout camp, was transferred into the Blood Blade Camp, becoming a vice commander. So far, the entire Blood Blade Camp Army has more than 1100 people. "

Xie Fei said: "The new Great Axe Camp is established. "Battalion Commander." A giant man suddenly appeared in Xie Fei's mind — Du Ceng, Du Ceng is valiant, his arm is stronger than others, he is the best candidate to be the Great Axe Camp's Battalion Commander.

The reason why the current situation was not bad, and the most important reason was still the issue of the food and money. Although Xie Fei had obtained the title of the imperial government, and could legitimately expand his troops, the Luoyang had been in war for a long time, and the burden on the citizens was too heavy. Furthermore, in the prolonged war, the citizens had suffered heavy casualties, and many of the young and able-bodied men were massacred, so the Luoyang still needed the citizens to shoulder the responsibility. So far, Xie Fei only had a poor Qu Yang County, it was difficult for him to support a huge amount of army consumption. Although detritus, Fushe and Willow Forest were also in Xie Fei's hands, they were still in Liu Yuan's hinterland. If Liu Yuan was able to calm down, he would definitely lose them. However, with Xie Fei's land reform, if Liu Yuan wanted to rule three more counties, it would probably not be that easy anymore. In fact, Xie Fei was still using Liu Yuan as an opponent at the moment. However, he did not know that during the battle of Luoyang, Liu Yuan had long been ill.

The generals looked at each other, and then cupped their fists towards Beigong Chun, who was the most proficient in training, and said: "General, this is feasible.

Pei Xian continued: "If we do this, there's no need to increase the military expenditure any further!"

Ning Dan said, "We can only overdo it, not rely on it. After so long, forget about the general taking over the Central Plains, even protecting himself would be a problem."

Xie Fei nodded, and said: "Of course!"

Following that, Xie Fei discussed the specific details of the arrangement with the three strategists (Ning Dan, Pei Xian, Xun Chuo). In the end, Xie Fei decided that in order to firmly control the army in his hands, he would educate all of them, and arrange them according to the arrangement of the officers in the Qu Yang Academy. Furthermore, in order to unify management, whether it was the Xianbei member, the Capricorn, or the Baloo who did not speak Chinese, they could not be military officers. Of course, speaking Chinese was only one of them. Without a genuine talent, one could only stand aside. In terms of attitude, Xie Fei definitely would not show favouritism. For the casualties of the various ministries, additional sources of troops are recruited to supplement them.

Xie Fei asked Ning Dan at the end, "How much money would it take to mass-produce Zhuge Kongming's crossbow?"

Ning Dan-ge smiled and said, "This is priceless. Besides the personal blacksmiths of my Zhuge family, even if I wanted to copy it, it would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens."

Xie Fei was speechless for a moment. Actually, towards Zhuge Liang, Xie Fei was just overjoyed, he was too selfish, the things that he designed were basically just some useless historical information, the reason was because Zhuge Liang really knew how to protect the property rights of intellectual property. Even if he designed the things for you, you wouldn't be able to use them without his guidance.

Looking at Xie Fei's depressing silence, Ning Dan said: "Actually, these two things are not very valuable, the key is that large-scale production is not easy, even if you have sufficient supplies and resources, a wutong tank would require a hundred blacksmiths to make one every month, Zhuge Liuyun is better, thirty blacksmiths can make ten of them every month."

Xie Fei said: "If we increase our manpower, won't we be able to do more?"

Ning Dan spread out her hands and helplessly said, "A skilled craftsman would need one year to master the skills required to make this trip. If the talent was average, it would take three years. All the craftsmen in the Zhuge family only numbered more than a hundred."

Hearing Ning Dan's words, Xie Fei became even more depressed.

Just as Xie Fei destroyed the allied army, Liu Kun (Historically, Liu Kun did not have any Luoyang s to help him with.) The rope pool was the northwest gate of the Luoyang, about 120 miles away from the Luoyang. It was basically a hilly mountain area.

After a night of surprise attacks by Zhao Zhaoyang's garrison troops and the Qiang cavalry soldiers, they finally caught up to Liu Kun's Union Army. Under the surprise attacks, Liu Kun's army suffered heavy casualties. After the time it takes to boil a cup of tea had passed, the Liu Kun Army soldiers, under Linghu Sheng's orders, formed a square formation. Liu Kun's Union Army was led by a heavy shield, with blades and spears ranked second, with crossbows and arrows aimed at the inside. This kind of infantry formation, if it had an equal number of soldiers, it was not possible to take on the light cavalry head on. From the darkness before dawn to the three rods of the sun, the troops of Zhe Yang gradually retreated after paying over four thousand casualties. In fact, it should be reasonable to say that Zang Yang Soldiers were not so weak. They had launched a surprise attack, and the other side was completely infantrymen. Although the enemy side had suffered over 10,000 casualties, their casualties were a bit too severe. Although the Zang Yang Army was not one of the top elite troops in the world, they were not that bad. On the other hand, the Liu Kun Army was just waiting for their turn, under such circumstances, the difference between good and bad was clear.

His commander, Linghu Sheng, immediately ordered his troops to retreat to the east and west of the city. The city had a small angle of sixty degrees and could be reached with barely enough manpower, but the cavalry was lacking in spirit and strength, and they had to make use of the mountain to set up their defensive line. However, the fight against the Zang Yang Army which had managed to recuperate and recuperate was more bitter this time, and Liu Kun's army had the advantage of being in numbers, making it impossible for them to defeat Liu Kun. Finally, after paying the price of more than five thousand soldiers, the Zhaoyang Army actually retreated. However, Liu Kun's army had been cut in half.

Due to the Zang Yang Army's sudden raid, Liu Kun originally needed to travel for two days, which was why he was delayed for over a day. It was only on the third day after the conclusion of the battle of the Luoyang that Liu Kun appeared at the west gate of the Luoyang.

Hearing that Liu Kun's reinforcements were closing in on the Luoyang, although it was a little late, he did not get angry. At least, he had the kind of intention, looking back at the various officials in the world, and responded to's rescue by thinking that there was no one else other than him in the Luoyang. Historically, there had been Southern General Shan Jian and thorny history Wang Cheng who had sent troops to rescue them. This book allowed Wang Cheng to appear first for the sake of plot needs, I hope everyone won't blame me! "

The following is not orthographic. --

To Xie Fei's four trump cards, one was the wind camp, and the other was the Primal Air Force. Second, Shadow Blood Slaughter. Since it was a special forces, intelligence personnel, and the Raging Flames were the artillery, the Blood Blade Camp was mainly made up of sharp blade troops, similar to the special forces of the modern era. The numbers were small, but the elites were strong. The follow-up will be detailed.
