Lu Chen has always believed that the development and iteration of weapons is a competition of who can hit farther, hit more accurately, and hit harder.
This is the case in this era, and it will certainly be the case in the future as well.
In this field, under his leadership, Da Qi is definitely at the forefront of the entire world.
As for how to win the battle, that is even simpler. All you have to do is maximize your own advantages and curb the enemy's advantages.
What are Da Qi’s advantages now?
It is the unity of the people, the protection of the city walls, and the many high-tech products in our hands.
What were the advantages of the Liao and Jin dynasties? Their large populations and powerful cavalry.
In this case, we must find ways to take advantage of our own advantages and limit the opponent's advantages.
So the question is, how can we play to our strengths?
Soon, people from Liao and Jin discovered that Da Qi had made new moves.
At night, the city gate of Da Qi suddenly opened, and a group of soldiers and civilians quietly ran out and began to dig the ground.
Someone else pushed a cart and brought out circles of things.
Logically speaking, if the Liao and Jin scouts discovered this situation, they would immediately report it to the Liao and Jin military officers. The Liao and Jin decision-makers would certainly not give up such a good opportunity and would definitely order people to go forward and fight immediately.
But now the soldiers of Liao and Jin are suffering from vomiting and diarrhea, and the whole military camp is full of stench. Everyone is busy cleaning up, so who has time to take care of these things?
As long as the people of Da Qi did not attack immediately with a large army, they would not bother to care.
Anyway, this group of people were doing things right at the gate of Da Qi City. If they really rode over there on horseback, the other party would have already run into the city gate.
Yelu Song heard the news and waved his hand nonchalantly, saying, "Don't worry about it. What else can they do?"
But after one night, when the Liao and Jin people looked at the capital of the Great Qi again, their eyes almost popped out.
In just one night, several trenches were built outside the capital of Da Qi.
What made the Liao and Jin people even more confused was that there were circles of barbed wire placed in front of the trench.
They were not familiar with this type of barbed wire. The scout came to investigate and then ran back, saying it was some vine.
After all, in the value system of the Liao and Jin people, it is impossible to make something like iron into a soft object.
Those things tied to the wooden stakes are bent like that, they must be vines.
Yelu Song endured the discomfort in his body and came to the front of the camp with a group of people. Looking at the circles of barbed wire surrounding the capital of Da Qi, he fell silent.
Yes, Yelu Song was also infected. If Han Derong and other Han officials had not come up with the idea of boiling the water, the number of casualties in the Liao and Jin camp would have continued to increase.
Looking at the circles of barbed wire in the distance, Yelu Song said in confusion, "My dear ministers, do you know what this is?"
The civil and military officials of Liao and Jin were all looking at the barbed wire in front of them in confusion. They didn't understand what it was or what it was used for.
After thinking for a long time, Bo Guwen touched his head and said, "How can we understand anything from such a distance? I will take people to get some back for the king to see!"
Humans are always prone to fear when facing the unknown. Now that someone is willing to take the lead, it couldn't be better.
Seeing that no one had any objections, Yelu Song nodded and said, "Okay, go ahead and do it. Be careful!"
Bo Gu Wen chuckled and said, "Don't worry, the soldiers of Da Qi are nothing but chickens and dogs in front of me. I'll be back soon!"
After saying this, Boguwen returned to his own camp, gathered two thousand men and horses, and charged directly towards Da Qi.
It’s not that there are no more soldiers, but Boguwen feels that these few soldiers are enough. The remaining soldiers should have a good rest. They have been exhausted in the past two days.
Bo Guwen had the capital to be so arrogant. He was an excellent rider and he came close with just a few leaps.
But just when he was about to dismount to check what these things were, a row of human heads suddenly emerged from the trench behind him, followed by crossbows in their hands!
Whoosh whoosh!
Countless crossbow arrows flew towards Bogu Wen's two thousand troops like locusts. In an instant, the screams of people and the neighing of horses resounded throughout the wilderness.
Bo Guwen's eyes were bloodshot. He had just seen clearly that the crossbows in these people's hands were all made of pure steel! The lethality of this thing was too strong!
His reaction was also quick. The moment he discovered the enemy's ambush, he pulled up the reins, pointed at the capital of Da Qi and said, "My men, follow me and charge forward. Break through the enemy's formation and then return. Let those cowards of Da Qi have a good look at the might of us Liao and Jin men!"
After he finished speaking, he pulled the reins, and the horse under him raised its front hooves and leaped up.
And then, nothing happened...
Although the front half of the horse passed, the hind half was caught on the wire mesh.
As the horses struggled, the barbed wire became tighter and tighter, and the spikes on it pierced into the horses' flesh.
After feeling the pain, the horse became even more restless, cried even more miserably, and struggled even more violently.
Even a skilled rider like Bo Guwen was eventually thrown off his horse, let alone other riders.
Boguwen fell to the ground with a scream, then rolled over and got up from the ground.
He drew the long sword from his waist, intending to kill a few Da Qi soldiers first, but then he was stunned.
What did he see!
Standing in front of him were fully armed sword and shield soldiers.
The reason why they are said to be fully armed is because these people are really armed to the teeth.
The armor these people wore was so thick that it almost blocked their eyes.
Bo Gu Wen roared, rushed forward and swept one of the soldiers across the waist.
Then the long sword in his hand broke directly!
Yes, there was no suspense at all, it just broke in the middle.
What made Bogu Wen even more devastated was that he thought that the powerful blow only left a shallow mark on the other person's armor, and the other person's body didn't even move.
At this moment, Boguwen realized that this should be a brand new type of soldier from the Da Qi side, a new type of soldier that moves slowly but has amazing defense capabilities.
These men who are good at fighting on horseback, once they fall to the ground, no matter how strong they are, they will definitely not be a match for these monsters in a one-on-one fight.
At this moment, the heavy infantry of Da Qi stepped onto the stage of history!
"What's our advantage? Our advantage is our high production capacity! We have a large amount of refined steel, and I can arm every soldier to the teeth!"
"What are the Liao and Jin people so arrogant about? They are nothing but scum when they get off their horses!"
