Mao Qiao said, "I have a condition?"
Mao Shengli was very dissatisfied and winked at his uncle Mao Qiao. He was thinking that you were too unintelligent. You were still staring at your nose when adults gave you a face.
Liu Bu said, "no problem, you say."
Mao Qiao said, "I want to be your servant and enjoy the same treatment as a servant."
Liu Bu said, "no problem. You are a member of the Liu family from today on."
Mao Qiao: "I want to be an official. I don't want to be a military household anymore."
Liu preached, "from today on, you are the general flag of the servant, with a monthly salary of 42."
Mao Qiao knelt on the ground and said loudly, "the villain Mao Qiao is willing to work for adults. Adults will have their own divine arm crossbow in a month."
Liu Budao: "what I want is 200 or more. You are already an official. I will give you a lifetime of wealth, but I don't want you to have reservations and directly teach these technologies so that we can mass produce them."
Mao Qiao hesitated to say so.
Liu preached, "what? Do you still have something to keep? I have to produce these divine arm crossbows in batch and use them in large quantities to produce results. If there are one or two, they will have no effect on me. What's the difference between them and several bows and arrows?"
Mao Shengli said, "uncle, what are you hesitating about? What else do you want when adults exchange officials with you?"
Mao Qiaoyi gritted his teeth and said, "my subordinates obey."
Liu Bu said, "your choice will not be wrong."
Liu Bu is in a good mood. Chen Yuanyuan's affairs have been perfectly solved. Now when he is considering the army's equipment, they need the cover of archers, but they can't raise thousands with their strength, can they?
Now with the divine arm crossbow, they will greatly improve their range and speed, which makes them have strong firepower to cover when they fight with a strong army like JianNu.
The Ming army was always under pressure when fighting JianNu. That's because JianNu's soldiers were brave and proficient in riding and shooting. Their archers' attack and range were much higher than that of Daming. They could shoot Daming's officers and soldiers within the range of the Ming army. Daming's officers and soldiers had to rush over and fight with them in order to win.
Therefore, the more the battle is fought, the more oppressive it is. Only then can there be a myth that women are dissatisfied with 10000 and are invincible.
Up to now, even the whole Liao town has been almost lost. Now in Liaodong, outside the pass, they basically let JianNu fight. Although there was no way to take the Ningyuan defense line for a while, they could bypass Mongolia and directly attack Daming. It can be said that their advantages in riding and shooting greatly improved JianNu's military advantages and kept pressing the Ming army to fight.
Liu Bu will choose to fight JianNu sooner or later when he sets up the army. If he only fights with them, the Ming army may suffer a lot, because they are natural hunters, professional soldiers who grew up in an extremely difficult environment and have been trained for more than ten years. Their individual combat ability and close combat ability are very powerful.
Since the Hunhe World War I in those years, Daming basically did not dare to have a large-scale decisive battle with JianNu in the field, because in the decisive battle in the field, their heavy armor infantry were far superior to the Ming army. Many people thought JianNu was their cavalry. In fact, their heavy armor infantry were more harmful.
Now JianNu has the red cannon, and they are even more powerful.
However, the number of their red cannon is small, and they are all used for dissection and imitation. It is estimated that in a few years, a large number of their own imitation will come out, and the slave building forces will be invincible in the world.
Since Liu Bu has decided to build an army, he will fight JianNu one day. What has he been trying to use to suppress JianNu's firepower? In the past, he thought about the firearm, but he couldn't get it for a while. He could only use the divine arm crossbow to suppress JianNu's riding and shooting advantage.
Liu Bu immediately ordered Mao Shengli to help his uncle Mao Qiao move and move back to the guard house. He set up a large workshop in the guard house city to recruit more than a dozen disciples to make God arm crossbows for him.
Mao Qiao is a master craftsman. Now he has an official position, which can be regarded as the general flag level. According to the military system of the Ming army, he can manage more than 50 people. He is also a small officer. He has stepped into an official position and glorified his family and ancestors.
Liu Bu attached great importance to this point and ordered to start work immediately. No matter what materials, manpower and money he wanted, he immediately got them. What he wanted right now was hundreds of such divine arm crossbows.
His bow and arrow army has only more than 200 people. If placed in the ordinary Ming army, one person shoots an arrow every two or three minutes and twenty or thirty pieces an hour, so their firepower is not strong enough to cover them for a high-intensity battle.
Think of only 200 people, one archer, one rest, and take turns archery. They can shoot 0, 20 to 30 arrows at most, so they need to rest. Therefore, they can only shoot 5000 or 6000 arrows at most, and they can no longer participate in the battle.
However, if they have this kind of divine arm crossbow with feet, it means that soldiers can shoot continuously, shoot faster and save more effort. It is not a problem to shoot more than twice as many arrows, but can also be used continuously. This kind of firepower suppression is extremely powerful, which can make them have the shooting ability of thousands of archers of the ordinary Ming army.
With 800 soldiers and thousands of archers, this military strength is quite good in Daming Shandong. At least it won't be bad compared with other military leaders.
After Liu Bu confirmed the production factory and number of shenarm crossbow, he immediately began to watch Liu Zhongyong train the army.
Liu Zhongyong knew that the Liu family was now facing great difficulties and crises and would be attacked by political enemies at any time, so he didn't waste a moment. After determining the list of servants and eight hundred officials, he immediately began to organize the army for training.
Among this group of soldiers, everyone is an excellent soldier, with good individual combat ability and strong physical quality. However, they are strong alone now, which does not mean that everyone is so strong. Moreover, fighting is not a single person's job, but dozens of people form a line to fight together.
The array set by Liu Zhongyong is relatively simple, there are not so many fancy things, there are no long snake array, wild goose feather array, and even the Qi family army mandarin duck array widely promoted in the Ming army.
He used the simplest one word tactics and the circular tactics used in the surrounded state, that is, let the soldiers line up or form a regiment, and then cover each other.
Their array is somewhat similar to that of the famous white soldiers. In the second year of apocalypse, Liaoyang in Shenyang was lost. However, on the Bank of the Hun River under the city of Shenyang, the white soldiers from Sichuan just blocked the repeated siege of JianNu, killed countless enemies and showed the momentum of the Ming army.
The battle of Hunhe River was extremely fierce. Several generals were all killed, and thousands of white soldiers were all killed. JianNu was very cold. JianNu always thought that the Ming army was vulnerable, but it was not until he fought with the white soldiers that he knew that the Ming army was still powerful.
Liu Zhongyong also participated in the Hunhe war. He was one of the few hundred soldiers who escaped back in the Hunhe war. Unlike others, others voted for Liaoyang and were ready to continue to fight JianNu to the death. Liu Zhongyong knew that nothing could be done and just wanted to change his way of life.
After such a toss, he changed from an official officer to a fugitive army. He was chased and killed by the Ming army. His wife and children were arrested and imprisoned. He had no choice but to take refuge in the Liu family, become a servant of the Liu family and work for the Liu family.
Liu Zhongyong was deeply impressed by the tactics of the white pole soldiers. Their array was simple and their weapons were extremely simple. However, with strong discipline, amazing willpower and team spirit, they united into a huge iron fist and stubbornly carried the strong attack of the JianNu army.
Liu Zhongyong has a deep understanding of the strong cold weapon combat ability of JianNu army. He has made several contacts with them. Basically, the Ming army has been defeated. Every time, the people's army has been defeated, but they have been pressed by the white soldiers. If the rebel Lin Wenfang didn't make the city's artillery bombard the white soldiers and blow them to death, In the Hunhe war, it is not certain who will win or lose in the end.
Although the Hunhe World War I played the prestige of the Ming army and the white pole soldiers, it is also a fact that thousands of troops were destroyed. Shenyang was lost, Liaoyang was lost, and Guangning was lost the next year. The main cities of the Ming Dynasty outside the pass on the left of Liaoning Province were lost one by one, and the decline of Liao town has become irreparable.
Liu Zhongyong was cold hearted. Although he said he wanted to change his way of life and was ready to escape to the pass to be a shrinking turtle, he wanted to be a shrinking turtle. JianNu didn't want to let go. Only a few years later, the Apocalypse emperor died. In a short ten years, JianNu broke the Great Wall three times in a row and burned, killed and plundered wantonly in the pass.
Liu Zhongyong knew that the decline of Daming had been completed. Sooner or later, they would have a war with JianNu, either you or me. Therefore, although he played the slogan of self-protection when training the army, he always thought that their real enemy was JianNu who was eyeing outside the pass.
Therefore, when training the army, he has always highly praised the combat tactics of the white pole soldiers and has always used this tactic to train the soldiers. Although they do not have the white pole long gun of the white pole soldiers, the long gun is also the same.
The tactics and weapons of the white pole soldiers are not the key. The key is their spirit of unity and fighting will. Liu Zhongyong was deeply impressed by their spirit of working together side by side, pushing forward without retreat.
Therefore, when Liu Zhongyong trains the troops, he now uses the simplest tactics without any fancy. In addition to the formation or array, the key is to train the courage of the soldiers, train their spirit of fearing death, and train them to have the spirit of the enemy without me and never retreat.
