Lord of the Gaming World Chapter 493: Prepare for battle
"The bow of the **** arm, the armour of the footmen, and weapons such as the drop knife, the halberd knife, the phoenix knife, the ring gun..."
Chu Tian plundered the arsenal of the Northern Song Dynasty, and looted the equipment of the Song army, and obtained a batch of divine arm bows, infantry armor, and a bunch of miscellaneous soldiers.
Chu Tian himself put on a pair of footmen's armor, with the body as the main body, with shawls on the top, hanging legs of the subordinates, and the first pocket, which was extremely heavy.
Soon Chutian discovered the problem.
The infantry armor of the Northern Song Dynasty was too heavy, which was not conducive to maneuvering, and had extremely high physical requirements on soldiers.
In other words, if a battle lasts for too long, the physical strength of Song Guo's heavy infantry will drop rapidly, and eventually the physical strength will be exhausted and the enemy will be defeated. Even if it is defeated, it is difficult to hunt down the enemy and expand the victory.
However, if Song did not use heavy infantry, it would not be able to stop the cavalry onslaught of Liao, Jin and Xixia.
"This armor is suitable for defensive hand-to-hand combat, but not for offense."
Le Yi commented on the Northern Song Dynasty Burenjia.
The heavier the armor is, the better. It needs to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis.
Even in the Northern Song Dynasty, not all armour was complete footman armour. A complete set of footman armor is expensive to manufacture.
The versatility of the walking armor is poor, and the more practical is the **** arm bow.
The God Arm Bow is a type of crossbow weapon. The minimum quality is gold, and the best ones can reach the king-level quality.
Chutian divided up 8,000 divine arm bows, most of which were gold-level divine arm bows, and a few were platinum-level.
"Lord Lord, here are two blueprints."
Joan of Arc led her troops to participate in the inspection of the north and south workshops and the bow and crossbow courtyard, and took out two blueprints from her arms.
Chu Tian took the blueprint and was stunned.
One of them is the blueprint of the gold-level God Arm Bow, and the other is the blueprint of the three-bow bed crossbow and the eight cattle crossbow.
Chutian looked at the finished product of the God Arm Bow's manufacturing drawings.
Name: Standard Arm Bow
Quality: Gold
Effect: The fixed attack power of 30 decreases with the distance, regardless of the attack power of the troops, with the effect of breaking armor
Comment: You thought it was a bow? Actually a crossbow.
"Standard God Arm Bow?"
This is a good thing.
What Chutian needed was this kind of mass-produced weapon to equip the crossbow army.
The higher the quality of the weapon, the more expensive it is to manufacture, but it may not be practical. The cost of building an emperor-level weapon may be enough to create hundreds of standard bows.
Chu Tian also looked at the attributes of the Eight Bull Crossbow, which is a large-scale weapon that can be used to attack and defend cities. Before the artillery appeared, the Eight Bull Crossbow was already one of the top siege weapons!
Name: 8 Niu Crossbow Large
Level: Level 8 Siege and Defense Equipment
Attack power: 200506 releases 7 arrows at the same time, the attack power decreases with distance
Comments: It is said that Xiao Talin, the main general of the Liao army, once used a crossbow arrow with an eight cattle crossbow on his forehead, and was defeated and killed in battle.
Chutian already has a double-bow crossbow, but compared with the eight cattle crossbow, the damage is relatively low.
After possessing the Eight Bull Crossbow, Chutian has an even more terrifying weapon for siege.
"Have you found the blueprint for the manufacture of the Bumen Armor?"
"No."
"Having these two drawings is enough. As a bonus, your return to France can be shortened by one month."
Chutian was very satisfied with the two drawings, so he generously shortened the time for Joan of Arc to return to France.
But Joan of Arc doesn't seem very satisfied.
In addition to weapons such as the God Arm Bow and the Walking Man Armor, and two blueprints that were more expensive than the equipment, Chu Tian also divided up a batch of gold and silver as a commission to help Song Qinzong drive out the golden soldiers.
At this time, the treasury of the Northern Song Dynasty had suffered many fiascoes and was no longer rich. In fact, Chutian did not divide up much gold and silver.
Chutian's territory in the main world is even richer than Song Qinzong's territory.
After capturing a batch of divine arm bows, Chu Tian asked Yan Jiashi to replace them with divine arm bows, and Chu Tian planned to bring the rest of the divine arm bows back to the main world to replace Liang Hongyu's Jianyan crossbowmen.
For Yanjia, the improvement of replacing the Divine Arm Bow is not big, but the Divine Arm Bow has a great improvement for Jianyan Crossbowmen.
As for the Buren Armor, it was acceptable to hold on, but lacked flexibility. Chutian was hesitating whether to replace the Yan Armor, sacrificing maneuverability in exchange for defense. This approach has both advantages and disadvantages.
The rest of the princes also received a collection of high-quality equipment from the arsenals of the inner city and the palace.
More than 100,000 Han troops have changed their equipment, and their combat effectiveness has become stronger!
In addition to the equipment above the gold level, there are also a bunch of inferior weapons or some odd-shaped miscellaneous soldiers, enough to arm 100,000 Baojia militiamen.
"We can recruit 50,000 Song troops and 200,000 Baojia militiamen, conduct drills, and improve their ranks. A month later, the troops will attack the Jin army on the outer city wall in separate ways to provide cover for us. Then, we gather our forces. , drove the Jin soldiers off the outer city wall in one fell swoop."
"Let Song Qinzong issue a decree to call on civilians to participate in the drill."
"Le Yi, Xie Xuan, Chang Yuchun, and Sun Jian can train 250,000 troops."
The various princes tried to squeeze the war potential of Kaifeng City.
Since we cannot recruit troops, we can only call 50,000 Song troops and all the armed forces in the city to expel the Jin soldiers in one fell swoop.
All of this must be in the name of Song Qinzong, in order to be justifiable.
At present, Song Qinzong, Song Huizong and a group of ministers are locked in a small dark room, with iron ropes locking the wooden door, and they will reflect on it.
Song Qinzong witnessed the celestial master Guo Jing being killed by Tianyu on the main hall.
"Not enough, that's all, it's not enough, we want to create panic. You set fire to the city, disguised as a golden soldier, and threatened to massacre the city."
Chutian asked Li Guang to pretend to be a golden soldier. At night, he set fire to the outer city of Kaifeng and shouted to kill him.
The news began to spread in the city that the Jin soldiers would set fire to the whole city and slaughter the people of the city. For a time, everyone in Kaifeng was in danger.
At this time, Qin Zong ordered to recruit 200,000 civilians for training, as auxiliary soldiers, to counterattack the Jin Army!
The holy purpose spread wildly in Kaifeng City, and the people of Kaifeng City, who had long been angry, were completely angered.
To make civilians work for you, you have to make them angry and fearful.
Xuandemen was crowded with people, and the water was blocked, and a total of 300,000 civilians were obtained!
The lords of the Han army eliminated the old and young from the 300,000 civilians, leaving only 200,000 civilians, including women with kitchen knives.
The princes of the Han army distributed weapons to the young men, and then they underwent a month-long simple training, mainly to let them learn to order and forbid, and put pressure on the Jin army.
Most of the Baojia militiamen, Chutian doesn't even expect them to go to the battlefield, as long as they attract the attention of some of the Jin army when they counterattack.
According to the assumptions of the lords of the Han army, they would turn the entire outer city of Kaifeng into a battlefield, fight to the death with the Jin army, and defeat the Jin army in one battle!
Except for the Jin army guarding Tongguan, the rest of the Jin army's main force has already arrived in Kaifeng. If the main force of the Jin army is severely damaged, the Song Dynasty's Guozuo can be extended for a period of time.
In the city, the soldiers and horses were trained nervously, while the Jin army on the outer city wall was panicked.
The situation in Kaifeng City took a turn for the worse. According to the Jin envoy who returned, the defenders in the city actually hijacked their emperor and openly took the side of the Qing emperor.
Even Jurchens born in remote places know that there is no difference between Qing Jun and rebellion.
After the emperor was placed under house arrest, the Jin army could no longer negotiate directly with the Song emperor, because the Song emperor could no longer promise them anything. They could only negotiate with the Han army princes. first
However, with the strength of the Han army princes, is it possible for them to negotiate and make compensation?
Wanyan Zongwang has been observing the situation in the outer city recently. He faintly noticed that the civilians in the outer city were constructing fortifications in an organized manner, placing horses, sandbags, and bricks on the streets.
If the previous civilians just resisted the Jinbing spontaneously, then behind the current civilians, there is a group of people commanding them.
The lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty have a very strong ability to mobilize civilians to participate in wars, and if they use them well, they can also exert miraculous effects.
Wanyan Zongwang felt uneasy in his heart. He had realized that the defenders were holding on, and at the same time, he was accumulating strength to counterattack.
The defenders in the city no longer negotiate with the Jin army outside the city, or the negotiations between the two sides have broken down, and only swords are facing each other.
"They are training the Baojia militia, and the people in the city have a lot of complaints against us. We can't sit still!"
Finally, Wanyan Zongwang saw through the strategy of the Han princes.
The hearts and minds of Kaifeng city people are available, this is a force that makes Jin Jun fear!
Wanyan Zonghan said: "It is better to destroy the outer city and kill all the people in the city."
Jin Wushu shook his head: "Slaughtering the city will lose the people's hearts, it will be difficult to convince the public, and it will not be easy to enter the Central Plains in the future."
Wanyan Zonghan didn't take it seriously: "For the resisters, only the massacre of the city can deter the remaining Song army."
Jin Wushu still disagrees.
The generals of the Jin Army were also divided into two factions, and the disputes were inexorable.
The West Route Army was once blocked by the Song Army in Taiyuan for nine months, so they advocated massacres to disintegrate the Song Army's will to resist, while the East Route Army generally advocated Huairou so that they could enter the Central Plains in the future.
In the end, Wanyan Zongwang rejected the Western Route Army's proposal to slaughter the city and chose to attack the inner city in a conventional way.
"Move the crossbow into the city and engage in street battles. At the same time, we continue to send envoys to put pressure on the defenders to surrender. Otherwise, we will set fire to the outer city and raze the outer city to the ground."
Wanyan Zongwang has a group of military commanders above the pseudo-king level~IndoMTL.com~ has confidence in the combat effectiveness of the Jin Army and is ready to attack.
The Song army is still training troops and horses in an orderly manner, with the main force of the Han army guarding several important places such as Longjin Bridge, and tug-of-war with the Jin army in the outer city, to buy time, and at the same time to dampen the morale of the Jin army.
Outside Kaifeng City, Zhao Gou, the ninth son of Song Huizong, was appointed as the military marshal of the world, and Zong Ze and Wang Boyan were the deputy marshals. Jin Junbingfeng never dared to advance to Kaifeng.
Deputy Marshal Zongze had to lead troops to support Kaifeng alone.
During this period, Zongze sent letters to the director of the North Road, the Xuanfu envoy of Hedongbei Road, and the Zhixingren House, requesting that he join forces to save Kaifeng, but these people thought Zongze was arrogant and ignored him.
Zhao Gou, the great marshal of the world's army and horses, did not send reinforcements at all. His main force did not dare to move forward, but he split up a side division and ordered the army in front of the marshal's mansion to control Liu Hao, and he went south to Junzhou and Huazhou. The direction is probably in the vicinity of Liyang and Yecheng during the Three Kingdoms period as a suspect soldier who rushed to help Kaifeng.
A cavalry squad of 300 people affiliated with Liu Hao's army was galloping in the area of Huazhou Shiyulin.
It is said that Bianjing, the capital of the country, has been besieged by the Jin army, and the soldiers and horses of Hebei are not far from Bianjing.
A scout cavalry urgently reported: "Sir, there is a golden army ahead!"
The young general's voice was low and sure: "Kill the past!"
