Emperor of the Tang Dynasty

Li Shimin gritted his teeth, his face ashen.

Think of his dignified emperor of the Tang Dynasty, why has he suffered such humiliation?

But Li Shimin still has no way to take them temporarily, which makes Li Shimin even more angry!

When they returned to the military camp where they were stationed, Li Shimin didn't say a word, just walked into the account and stared at the sand table and thought hard.

He is not reconciled, there must be a way to break this iron tower army!

And although Li You was not in command for the time being, he didn't want to watch countless soldiers from the Tang Dynasty take their lives. He also touched his chin and pondered.

"Now Na Yuangai Suwen is strictly guarded, and even the three-bow crossbow with a huge range cannot enter the effective range, not to mention the bow and arrow... Even if I bring Yang Youji over, I guess it won't work. Use beheading tactics like you did last time in Tibet."

Thinking of this, Li You quickly skipped the method against the leader and began to think of other methods.

"Speaking of which, this iron tower soldier is somewhat similar to the Iron Buddha of the Golden Man in history?"

Tiefutu, also known as Tiefutu, means iron tower in Buddhist language, and is very similar in type to the iron tower soldiers of Yuangaisuwen.

According to Li You's memory, Tiefutu belonged to the heavy cavalry, that is, the cavalry who wore heavy armor and attacked the enemy's line. Together with the kidnappers, they accompanied Wanyan Zongbi to the north and south, and made great achievements.

Just like the Iron Tower Soldiers, Tiefutu was unstoppable at the time, but Tiefutu was the future. Compared with the Iron Tower Soldier, it should be said that it was the predecessor of Tiefutu.

Li You remembered very clearly that Jin Wushu led his [-] army, [-] kidnappers, and [-] Tie Futu to attack the Southern Song Dynasty in a mighty way. Aggressively killed Shunchang on the edge of the Ying River!

"." Speaking of which, it's actually more suitable for the general to look for Yue Fei this time, right?"

Li You couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, Yue Fei is an expert when it comes to dealing with Jin Ren.

"Wait..." Li You suddenly had a flash of light in his mind, "Since the tower soldiers and Tiefutu are so similar, it means that Yue Fei's (good money) method of dealing with Tiefutu is also effective for the iron tower soldiers! "

When Li Youzheng thought of this, he saw Li Shimin walking out of the tent and waved to Li You.

"What are you doing, Yang Jie? Come with me to discuss military countermeasures."

Li You said bluntly: "Father, my son has already thought of a way."

"What did you say?"

Li Shimin was taken aback, and he heard Li You continue: "To deal with the kind of heavy armor that is difficult to pierce, the best way is to use bludgeoning heavy weapons!"

"Of course I've thought about this, and I'm still using you to say it?" Li Shimin said angrily, "But this is nonsense at all! Because we didn't bring heavy bludgeoning weapons at all."

"Then what if..." Li You smiled, "Erchen actually asked someone to bring some over?"

Chapter 862 The horn of the counterattack! (first update)

Li Shimin was stunned, but Li You had already explained it.

"Because I didn't have anything to do with my ministers before, when I was bored, my ministers thought, since I have been invincible since the Tang Dynasty was equipped with iron armament, maybe the enemy army has already had a countermeasure. Look at the iron tower army in the battle today. I knew it was so!"

"They used heavy armor to fight our iron weapons, so before the expedition, Erchen ordered craftsmen to build many blunt weapons such as hammers and steel whips overnight. It was originally just in case, but I didn't expect to have them so soon. The place to use it."

Hearing this, Li Shimin sighed for a long time, patted the military case angrily, and said with a wry smile: "I have experienced many battles when I was young, and I rarely fail. Who would have thought that the deep palace would go on an expedition for many years and lead troops to fight so many wars? It's a mistake, it's not as good as you, a young man."

Li Youming knew that this was his father's loss of face to look for face, and smiled slightly.

Li Shimin had already swept away the haze on his face, and laughed loudly: "Yang Jie, look at it, after I regain my strength, I'll be able to kill what kind of iron tower army and flee in embarrassment!"

"Father, in fact, apart from the warhammer, my son deserves another weapon that just happens to restrain Yuangaisuwen's iron tower army."

"Huh?" Li Shimin was shocked, stood up from his seat, and asked in disbelief, "What other weapons are there?"

"This 890 weapon is called the hooked sickle spear. The spear is seven feet two inches long, and the spear head is made of iron and iron. The spear head is eight inches long, with blood grooves on both sides. The spear head is sharp and the lower part is sharp. It has a barb that protrudes laterally, the tip of the hook is curved inward, looks like a sickle, and is extremely sharp. The barrel is six feet long, with a thick circle diameter of four inches. It is made of iron and is extremely tough. groove."

Li You took the pen and ink handed over by Tang Bing, and drew the shape of the hooked sickle spear on the paper.

"The head of the hook and sickle gun is the same as the head of the ordinary gun, and it plays the role of piercing the target. The barb on one side can be used to assassinate the enemy, or hook the enemy to prevent it from escaping. The men and horses are all covered with heavy armor, but there is no protection at the legs of the horses."

"Father, just imagine, when the enemy cavalry rushes into the formation, the soldiers in my formation can use hooked scythes, hook or chop, cut off the horse's legs and force the enemy cavalry to fall off the horse, losing the advantage of commanding the horse. Once the enemy falls off the horse , the soldiers in our formation hit him with blunt weapons, do they have any reason to be invincible?"

Li Shimin was stunned.

However, when he was still the king of Qin, he took the place of Li Yuan to fight everywhere, and he rarely failed. Li Shimin was naturally unique in terms of military ability.

He seriously thought about Li You's method of cracking the iron tower army, and then stared at the drawing of the hook and sickle gun in his hand, and nodded after a while, this is indeed a feasible method, and from his perspective, it is likely to be possible. efficient.

"I do know that there is a similar hook gun, but obviously you are more mature. I don't know who created it?"

Li Shimin nodded again and again, seeing that he was very happy with the way to defeat the enemy.

"It's the son-in-law!"

Li You directly recognized it with a shy face. Anyway, the hooked sickle spear developed into the peak state on the drawings in the Song Dynasty, and it is still hundreds of years later.

Li Shimin couldn't help but be surprised again, and his eyes became deep when he looked at Li You.

Li You's growth was seen in Li Shimin's eyes, but such growth is really too defiant, and it is not the first time that Li Shimin has felt a sense of frustration.

Li Shimin let out a long sigh, then put the manuscript on the desk: "Even if you invented such a magical weapon, it's too late to rush it now, right?"

"Reporting to the emperor, with a little modification of the existing armament, it is not too difficult to become this hooked sickle spear."

Li Shimin sighed and said, "That said, but there is no iron furnace in the army, how can this be transformed?"

Li You scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "Actually, Erchen brought an iron stove."

"???"
