Da Song: The opening game killed Ximen Qing

“Grand Commander, we have contacted the forbidden army general stationed in the Daimyo Mansion. The other party has already promised to sell us armaments in secret. However, the asking price is high. A set of step armor requires a hundred. A divine arm crossbow costs two hundred. As for the military horse, it is even more necessary to run a thousand! Pu Dao and the like, but much cheaper. Zhu Gui prayed to Wu Song.

The forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty, although the combat effectiveness is not very good.

However, the weapons and equipment are very advanced.

Foot armor is armor weighing more than 50 pounds, which wraps the soldier’s whole body in it and can effectively resist the shooting of arrows. Unless it is a crossbow arrow such as a divine arm crossbow, it is extremely difficult to shoot through.

The Divine Arm Crossbow is the standard equipment of the crossbowmen of the Great Song Forbidden Army, with a maximum range of more than 300 steps, that is, 450 meters. The effective range is also achieved. Of course, this is the early god-arm crossbow.

In order to reduce the power of the bow, the later divine arm crossbow reduced its power. Even so, the maximum range is capable of reaching two hundred and forty steps, that is, three hundred and sixty meters.

At a distance of one hundred and twenty steps, light armor can be effectively shot. At a distance of eighty paces, even heavy armor will be shot through.

You know, the bows and arrows of nomads in this period generally have an effective range of only fifty steps.

“So expensive?” Wu Song couldn’t help but frown.

“Grand Commander, there is no way around this. Although in recent years, the military discipline of the imperial court has collapsed. But if you sell arms privately, it is a felony. Zhu Gui was also a little helpless.

Wu Song nodded: “Buy!” Let’s start with five hundred sets of step armor. Buy another 500 crossbows! ”

“Yes, Grand Commander!” Zhu Gui replied.

These things alone cost 150,000 yuan.

It is undoubtedly that the Liangshan rebels, who have just become rich, suddenly become poor.

“Two rulers, three rulers. It seems that our actions will have to continue. In the next month, we will attack Zhuangzi to the east and north of Shuibo. You have to get more money! Wusong said.

Du Qian and Song Wan also nodded one after another.

“In addition, we can also do conscription. The current number of troops is still too small. Once the officers and troops want to suppress us, it will be difficult for us to deal with it. At that time, only Liangshan will be dead. Wusong continued.

The current Liangshan rebel army has only more than a thousand people.

If it is a small group of officers and troops, or box troops, it can still deal with it.

But if you want to face the elite forbidden army, I am afraid that some strength will be overwhelmed.

“Grand Commander, we have a deep mass base in each of our Zhuangzi south of Shuibo. Many young descendants are envious of the treatment of the rebels. It should be easy to recruit soldiers. Zhu Gui smiled.

The dozens of Zhuangzi, large and small, south of Liangshan’s water po, have fully recognized the existence of the Liangshan rebel army.

Especially those poor ordinary people regarded the Liangshan rebels as their own.

Coupled with the intentional publicity of the Liangshan Rebels, the good treatment made those young men very yearning.

After all, the Liangshan rebels did what robbed the rich and helped the poor. At the same time, the treatment is good.

Naturally, young people who are eager to make a difference are itchy.

“Okay, then secretly start recruiting soldiers. Remember, recruit those peasant children who come from clean families, and be strong. The number of people, controlled at about fifteen hundred! ”

In this way, the total strength of the Liangshan rebel army could be increased to 2,500 people, which was equivalent to an army of the Great Song Forbidden Army.

“Yes, Grand Commander!” Zhu Gui nodded.

Next, the Liangshan rebels made frequent sorties and launched attacks on Zhuangzi to the east and north of Shuibo.

These large and small Zhuangzi could hardly withstand the attack of the Liangshan rebels, and they were easily taken.

A month later, the entire Zhuangzi east and north of Liangshan Shuipo became Liangshan Shuipo’s sphere of influence and offered Liangshan Shuipo.

At the same time, the recruitment of the Liangshan rebels was also very smooth.

A large number of peasant children with clean families put down their hoes, went up Liangshan, and became members of the rebel army.

Wu Song asked Zhu Gui to continue to buy weapons while organizing training.

Under the mixture of old and new, the Liangshan rebel army was organized into ten battalions, each battalion of 250 men.

These ten infantry battalions formed the First Army of the Liangshan Rebel Army, with Wu Song as the commander of the military capital and Du Qian as the military capital Yu Marquis. As for Song Wan, the three commanders, he was specifically responsible for the logistics of the Liangshan rebels.

Buying the materials that the forbidden army resold is too expensive.

Wu Song ordered Zhu Gui to search for craftsmen who could make weapons, and set up a military workshop in the back mountain of Liangshan, making steel knives and spears himself, etc., to reduce the expenses needed by the armed forces.

But the advanced weapons such as the step armor and the divine arm crossbow, the Liangshan rebels could not make themselves for a while.
