Sun God Marvel Chapter 2070: The difference of the times.

"Yu Qing, what do you think we should do next?"

To some extent, he has gained Yu Qian's allegiance, and at the same time, he knows that the names of the Orientals are the last name first. Naturally, Alexander began to question the potential in a more intimate way. This can be regarded as some kind of school examination, after all, it is not the same thing to say that the principle and the advice are not the same.

Yu Qian could also see that there was a sense of testing his own depth, but almost without thinking, he said this directly to Alexander.

"The so-called workmanship must first sharpen his tools. This old oriental saying means that if you want to do a thing well, you must have the tools at your fingertips. And it is here for your majesty, if your majesty wants to continue To achieve a great cause, I think the first thing to do is to arm these soldiers under us with the best weapons."

"Why?" Hearing this, the pressure was so intense that his eyes condensed, and he couldn't help but raised his eyebrows. "For you, the short swords and spears of the soldiers under my command are not sharp enough? Are their armors not strong enough?"

As soon as Alexander's voice fell, those warriors who accompanied him to resurrection, belonging to the Macedonian Empire, had already drawn out their short swords, knocking on their shields, and shouting loudly.

The sound shook everywhere. This is beyond doubt. After all, tens of thousands of people made battles at the same time. As far as the scene is concerned, it is absolutely shocking. At the same time, there were very few troops of this level, which is why a dignified Egypt would surrender to Alexander without a shot. They are very clear about their own standards, and even the Persian Empire is not an opponent, how could they have defeated such an elite division. It's better to be happy and surrender.

Although Lao Yu was also shocked by the talent of Alexander's subordinates, he was only shocked. If you say it is shocking, I think this is the only thing I have seen in my life. That's just kidding.

Leave aside, the military parade held every few years is no worse than the performance of these Macedonian soldiers. And you have to know that there are millions of elite soldiers behind that, from this point of view, these Macedonian performances can't scare his old man.

"Your Majesty, I am a professor of history. I know that the primitive Italian tribes around Macedonia were once regarded as barbarians by your Greek city-states. In addition to inherent stereotypes, there are indeed Some of it is because there are indeed some tribes in it that still maintain the primitive nomadic and tribal system. Then my majesty, you can regard such a tribal warrior whom you regard as barbaric, their equipment and what they can show Do you compare the combat power you have with your soldiers?"

"Are the savages of the Italian peninsula? It's not difficult." All the wise men have the habit of selling off children, and Alexander is already familiar with this. Therefore, although those who were old for this sudden change of course were a little unprepared, it was not completely unexpected. In order to respect the knowledge of the wise men, Alexander tends to follow the tide, and it is the same this time.

"I saw the war between my father and the barbarians when I was young. They are often dressed in animal skins, using wooden spears and stone weapons. Some people have bronze in their hands. Weapons, but they are often looted or exchange. They themselves do not have this metal smelting technology. Therefore, they cannot be compared with the Macedonian soldiers under my command."

"The soldiers under my command are equipped with brass helmets, armor and shin guards as standard. The two-piece spears, bucklers, and short swords are all made of metal. With the advantage of equipment, my warriors can kill one barbarian with easily and fight against two or three barbarians. If you want to fight in an array, my three hundred soldiers are enough to defeat two thousand barbarians!"

This kind of battle loss ratio of almost one enemy ten may sound a bit exaggerated elsewhere, but it is true here in Alexander. The crushing advantage brought by metallurgical technology, coupled with the support of his famous Macedonian phalanx, unless the opposition is the first-ever Qin crossbow in the East or the large-scale chariot attack, otherwise the contemporaries, He really is an invincible existence. It is really trivial to take one enemy ten. During the war with Persia, he had beaten out a one-to-twenty battle loss.

Of course, Lao Yu asked such a question because he knew how good the Macedonian soldiers were at the time, and he naturally had an intention to ask such words.

"Do you think that under this gap, is the soldier's individual bravery more important, or is the gap in equipment more important?"

"Of course..." Alexander subconsciously wanted to answer with bravery. After all, in his time, this was a common understanding. The Greeks admired sports and often praised heroic allusions. Someone can make great achievements in this regard. , They often subconsciously think that this is the result of bravery or wisdom. Few people will think of whether this has anything to do with weapons and equipment that they regard as tools.

Alexander is also caught in such a vicious circle. However, as a wise king, he has an extra heart. He didn't give an answer right away because he went through the question again in his head. But after careful consideration, he couldn't be so sure that the answer he thought was correct.

On bravery, Macedonians are certainly not bad. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to conquer half of the world starting from his father's generation. But to say that the aboriginals of Italy are worse than their Macedonians, which is a bit of a conscience.

Different from Greece, which once regarded Macedonia as savage (Macedonia is on the edge of the Greek world), Egypt with a long history, Persia and India, which are not bad, are the indigenous people of the Italian peninsula. Is a barbarian. Living resources basically rely on nomadism and hunting, and they don’t even have the ability to build city-states. The city built is not so much a city as it is a soil enclosure, which is simply a mixture of wood and soil to make a look.

In terms of civilization, he is definitely the most discriminated against on the edge of the Greek world. But because of this, Alexander dare not say that they are not as brave as the Macedonians.

The most direct change brought about by civilization is the change of human living environment. In a sufficiently civilized country, there will be a large number of artists and scholars, and production activities will change from dangerous hunting and nomadism to stable agricultural production. This change is good on the whole, but on the individual, people’s general physical fitness will decline.

Just pull a Greek farmer and an Italian aboriginal herder. It is definitely the herder who needs to be stronger. Because he wants to let go of the horse, to deal with wolves and Beast. By the same token, although the Macedonian soldiers are brave, but they struggle in a difficult environment all year round and have to fight against the Beast native soldiers physically, their bravery will not be inferior.

I even said it would be stronger. Because there are weak people in Macedonian soldiers, as long as they are within the permissible range. But the barbarian warriors will not have too weak people, because the harsh environment will directly weed out these so-called weak ones.

But even so, the Macedonians can still defeat the Barbarians easily. It is conceivable what the real reason is.

"Well, it seems that the role of weapons and equipment is indeed very important. So, do you want to tell me that I should allocate sharp enough swords and strong armor for the soldiers under my hand? Yu Qing?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. It's just that you may have some inappropriate words, um, not very accurate."

I made a gesture with my hand a distance where **** could be close together. It seemed small, but only the older one knew how far this distance was.

He is a Chinese, a master race of face learning. Since he said that he was loyal to Alexander, he should naturally save enough face for him to speak and act. I say this now to save him face. And now that the face has been preserved, then what should be said should be made clear.

"Your Majesty, the first thing you have to understand is how long it has been since your time. We calculate according to the year of the Christian era. You are probably more than 300 years BC, and now it is after 2000 years. . In other words, almost two thousand four hundred years have passed since your time."

"In two thousand and four hundred years, enough human civilization has developed to a point that you may not imagine. I say this may be difficult for you to understand, so let me put it another way. As a well-known method of warfare, also It is the cold weapon war that we modern people often call. It has already withdrawn from the stage of history. With the development of weapon technology and technological progress and changes, the way of war has changed significantly. It is not that no one wants it. Sticking to this old creed, writing history with cold weapons, but the price of blood is enough for them to throw all the old and obsolete things into the corner of the corner."

"Take an example to illustrate. The British invented the Maxim machine gun and used it in the war against the African indigenous Matabilli-Surus. Use this new invention on the battlefield Fifty British soldiers repelled dozens of assaults by more than 5,000 Metabilis, killing more than 3,000 people directly. The deaths on the British side were...zero."

Holding a cold weapon, it is naturally impossible to cause any casualties if it can't penetrate the defense line of the machine gun. This is common sense in today's era, but in front of Alexander, an ancient man more than two thousand years ago, this is a real miracle.

Any cold weapon war, no matter how brave and skillful soldiers, no matter how wise the commander in command, it is impossible to say that one can win the next war without death or injury. As long as the fight started, even if there was a group of rabbits on the other side, luck would be able to kill so many people occasionally.

This is the norm, and it is also the reality in Alexander's cognition. And now Lao Yu's introduction obviously broke the common sense in his cognition, and at the same time refreshed his cognition of war. This made him inevitably a little confused, after all, the field he was most familiar with suddenly became a situation he didn't understand, and everyone would have such a reaction. But soon, the ambition and desire to conquer of his king's nature were already on the rise again. And he also showed an extremely excited smile at this moment.

"New methods and rules of warfare? This sounds interesting."

As he rubbed his lush beard, Alexander's eyes showed a fiery glow.

"Compared to me who has been invincible in your so-called cold weapon wars, a brand new method of warfare is tantamount to a new and fun challenge. I have no doubt accepted this challenge. So here comes the question, my dear Yu Qing, can you tell me, how can I start this brand new game? Or, how can I be qualified to enter this new war?"

As Alexander himself said, the progress of the times did not make him feel afraid and retreat, but instead inspired him to belong to the king's fighting spirit, making him more and more want to adapt to this era to gain new conquests. And victory. This may be a manifestation of arrogance, but isn't it the kind of arrogance that created the miracle named Alexander the Great.

Lao Yu was mentally prepared for this, so when Alexander spoke like this, he immediately said.

"Weapons, Your Majesty. We need enough weapons, not to mention arming everyone, but at the very least, we must also arm the elite forces among us to the teeth."

"Weapons, like what you just said, something called a Maxim machine gun?"

Alexander is a little curious, he instinctively has great curiosity about things that only exist in this new style of war. That is, the conditions are not allowed, otherwise he really wants to get some modern weapons of war in front of him, and study it carefully.

"More than that. The Maxim machine gun is a product almost two hundred years ago. Today, the development of weapons has already had a more complete system and type. In terms of individual soldiers, it is used as an emergency as a short sword. Spare pistols, there are also rifles that are used for warfare like spears. Of course, the so-called guns used may be more similar to the bows and arrows of your time. They need a kind of accessories called bullets to be used normally. Otherwise, they are A stick that burns fire."

"In addition, modern warfare has some new types of equipment that are difficult to describe with the equipment of your time. For example, tanks are like a group of armored bulls, and they can also eject cannonballs that are as destructive as thunder and lightning. There are missiles, the most powerful, you can even imagine it as if an earthquake or a volcanic eruption suddenly appeared in the opponent's camp."

"This is really amazing. Has the war reached this point? Doesn't it mean that there are not enough people to kill?"

Alexander just admired ~IndoMTL.com~ and Lao Yu was sighed at this time.

"Yeah, there are not enough people to kill. In fact, all those who teach history know that it is too much to kill thousands of people in one battle in ancient wars. But in modern wars, millions of people are killed. It’s normal. As this continues, humans will die like this one day sooner or later, but the problem is, they can’t stop."

"Then find a way to conquer everyone, so that there is no reason for humans to continue to fight. Just like the empire I built."

Alexander doesn't think there is anything wrong with the war dead. He loves to conquer, so naturally he doesn't care about dead people. And compared to this kind of sentimental sadness, what he cares more about now is.

"How can we make the kind of weapon you call it?"

"Make? Can't make it. Without a complete industrial system and technological reserves, such a developed thing can't be made. We can only think of other ways, such as...borrow!"
