Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

The Seven Dou Bow does not have the ability to wear iron armor targets, it is like holding a pistol and aiming at a target wearing a Slavic helmet and nano body armor 100 meters away, unless two bullets hit one, or can target The target deals a fatal blow, otherwise it's just scratching the surface.

In Chen Ying's view, anyone who equips the army with this seven-double bow deserves to be pulled out and shot.Because the Seven-Double Bow is a hunting bow, it is almost useless unless it is facing an unarmored target.In Chen Ying's view, the bows of more than one stone produced by the Chang'an Weapons Supervision Department of the Tang Dynasty are barely usable, at least they can shoot heavy arrows and suppress enemy targets.Whether it is armor or armor, the best steel crossbow produced in Chen Ying's crossbow shop, if this kind of steel crossbow with a tension of three stones is equipped with the whole army to shoot the army, it will be a disaster for the enemy.

Although Chen Ying's crossbow machine made of spring steel is not like the scorpion crossbow, it can hit targets three or four hundred paces away, but it has no pressure on targets between one hundred and eighty to two hundred paces away.At this distance, the Turkic cavalry can only be beaten and cannot fight back. The Turkic cavalry has to withstand at least three rounds of crossbow shooting before they can barely enter the effective range of their cavalry bows.

With three rounds of crossbow arrows, even the most elite Turkic Wangzhang pro-army Affiliated Army will go around.

The most important thing is that this kind of crossbow machine has a very simple structure and can be divided into seventeen parts, all of which can be cast. A furnace of molten steel can be poured directly after batching and stirring. After simple polishing, it can be assembled to form this kind A powerful crossbow.

There were less than [-] craftsmen in Chen Ying's crossbow workshop, and they said that they made [-] crossbow machines in one day without any pressure.

As for the scorpion crossbow, it is a tactical support weapon.Nufang is difficult to manufacture, the production speed is slow, and the cost is not cheap. It is worth mentioning that Li Jiancheng directly rejected Wei Zheng's objection. , used to purchase the above-mentioned materials and equipment, and other seized gold and silver were transported to Chang'an..."

Wei Zheng was very puzzled, and said bluntly: "His Royal Highness supports Chen Ying to do this, what is the difference between this and the prodigal son?"

After all, Datang's life is not easy.Especially last year when Hedong was hit by Liu Wuzhou's military disaster, it was almost impossible to collect taxes. Not only could it not be collected, but the imperial court had to allocate funds to build the city and appease the people whose families were ruined. Hundreds of dollars in funeral expenses.However, because of Liu Wuzhou's military disaster, more than 30 people died in the counties and counties of Hedong, which emptied the treasury of the Tang Dynasty.

It's hard to say about other officials, at least Wei Zheng is still waiting for the court's salary to be put into the pot.Therefore, the seizure of these 70 Guan can greatly alleviate the emptiness of the Tang Dynasty's treasury.

However, as the saying goes, the ass determines the head.

Because of their different positions, Li Jiancheng and Wei Zheng have different considerations.Li Yuan is obviously partial to Li Shimin. If Wang Shichong is eliminated, then Li Shimin will definitely be rewarded.There has been a faint rumor in the palace that once Li Shimin eliminates Wang Shichong and occupies the entire Central Plains, Li Yuan will reward Li Shimin as General Tiance, Marshal of the World's Soldiers and Horses, ranking above the generals of all armies, and becoming the commander of the Tang Dynasty's soldiers and horses .

This put too much pressure on Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng had the name of supervising the country, but he did not actually supervise the country.Although Li Shimin does not have the actuality of supervising the country, he can command the six ministries in the name of Shangshu Sheng Shangshuling, and control the heavy power of the court. If Li Shimin is made the world's military commander, Li Shimin will definitely expand.

Li Mengchang, the big celebrity around Li Shimin, served as the general of the right guard, Du Junchuo moved to the general of the right guard, Zheng Rentai served as the general of the right guard, and Dugu Yanyun served as the general of the left lead.In other words, among the 32 generals among the sixteen generals, Li Shimin has controlled three generals, one big general.

In the future, Wang Shichong will be put down, and Li Shimin's generals such as Hou Junji, Duan Zhixuan, Gongsun Wuda, Liu Shili, etc. will also be promoted to one of the sixteen generals with the help of Li Shimin.With Chen Ying's great achievements, it is understandable to be promoted to General Zuo Wu or General You Wu Army. Li Jiancheng naturally thought that Li Yuan was weakening his military power.

As the saying goes, those who plan more win more, and those who plan less win less.Since Li Jiancheng couldn't stop Li Yuan from taking sides at this time, he could only plan ahead.

Li Jiancheng also didn't want to be the second Prince Li. At that time, Prince Li Liu Ju was trapped by Jiang Chong, Su Wen, Liu Qumao and others, so he had to kill Jiang Chong. It was a pity that he was finally defeated by Liu Qumao and committed suicide. .

The military power held by the prince has always been feared by the emperor.Li Jiancheng has only [-] soldiers and horses, with six rates.With this strength, Li Yuan would definitely not sit back and watch him expand his army. When Li Jiancheng was in a dilemma, Chen Ying proposed a new plan for him at this time.

Strengthen the six-rate equipment of the Eastern Palace. Each soldier is equipped with three types of weapons. Once the situation requires it, the army can be expanded at any time to triple the number of troops without having to worry about weapons and equipment.

Conscience in the bottom of the world, Chen Ying absolutely did not mean to confuse Li Jiancheng, raise the army, and guard against Li Shimin, but the struggle between Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin was directed by Li Yuan himself at the beginning, but as Li Shimin's power grew, Li Shimin began to swell.

In the end, a tragedy was brewing.

Li Jiancheng rushed to Wei Zheng and said: "Prepare the carriage, I will enter the palace!"

Following Li Jiancheng along the way, Wei Zheng still wanted to persuade Li Jiancheng to change his mind, but Li Jiancheng was also determined to improve his awareness of military equipment, and he did not change his attitude at all.

"Da Lang... Could there be some great joy?" Li Yuan seemed to be in a good mood at the moment, seeing Li Jiancheng coming, he said with a smile on his face.

"It's true that no one knows a son better than a father!" Li Jiancheng flattered Li Yuan indiscriminately: "Whatever happens to a son, I can't hide it from my father!"

Li Yuan laughed out loud when he heard this.

Pei Ji has always played the role of servant, teacher, friend, and minister in front of Li Yuan. Seeing the father and son doing their homework, Pei Ji didn't interrupt, and when his eyelids drooped, he regarded himself as a puppet.

Li Jiancheng put a watch in Li Yuan's hand.

Li Yuan was about to open it.

Li Jiancheng said: "Father, why don't you guess what this is?"

Li Yuan closed the watch and pondered, "The yamen are not opened yet. The affairs of the yamen haven't been sent to the palace. If it is an urgent matter, the palace will definitely get a letter. Erlang sent troops for five days, and the time has just passed Tongguan. The good news has not come so soon, is this good news from Chen Ying?"

"Although we have not won, it is not far away!" Li Jiancheng gently opened the watch, pointed to the words on it, and said, "Father, I am very happy. Although General Chen did not conquer Hangu Pass, he seized Taolin and sent Wang Shichong robbed the treasury in Taolin, and seized 2 taels of gold, more than [-] taels of silver, and a hundred carts of copper coins!"

Well, this is the normal ecology of officialdom.How much gold and silver Chen Ying seized is a matter for the beholder to see the benevolence and the wise see the wisdom. He reported 70 guan to Li Jiancheng, and of course what he ate was not counted.The watch was in the hands of Li Jiancheng, and Li Jiancheng disappeared with a stroke of 40 pens.

Li Yuan and Pei Ji were worrying about the depleted national treasury, when they suddenly saw the huge wealth of 30 guan, the smile on Li Yuan's face deepened, and of course the age spots on his face became more obvious.

"Good, good, good!" Li Yuan said three good words in succession.

Pei Ji suddenly opened his eyes, and bowed deeply to Li Yuan: "The old minister congratulates His Majesty! This is God Bless Tang!"

Li Yuan nodded and said: "General Chen captured Wang Shichong..."

As Li Yuan's good friend, Pei Ji doesn't know what Li Yuan thinks in his heart. As the saying goes, the landlord's family has no food left, and Li Yuan's internal treasury is almost dry.He has so many concubines to reward, and the seasonal festivals, especially the Shangyuan Festival, are coming. At that time, it is necessary to have a big banquet for the ministers. Li Yuan must be having a headache because of money.

Pei Ji smiled and said: "General Chen took the lead, fought bloody battles, killed more than [-] enemies, and captured [-] thieves' gold..."

"Um……"

Li Yuan snorted.

Pei Ji hurriedly changed his words: "1 taels of gold and more than [-] taels of silver were seized to fill the treasury!"

If Chen Ying stood here, he would definitely be dumbfounded.Li Jiancheng swiped 70 guan and lost more than half, and Li Yuan was unambiguous, and directly lost half.

PS: Thank you book friend Wu Xiangrui for the reward of 2000 coins. Tomorrow, Lao Cheng will participate in the screenwriting competition, so he needs to take a good rest today.There are only three shifts today, please understand.Try to add more tomorrow.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

As for how Li Yuan distributed the captured gold, Chen Ying didn't worry about it. It seemed that the Tang army's conquest of Zheng State had nothing to do with Chen Ying, the right deputy commander. Chen Ying's greatest pleasure every day was to practice fiercely the soldiers of the Modao Army under his command.As the saying goes, practice three nines in winter and practice three days in summer.

Although it was past thirty-nine at this time, the weather outside was freezing, which was an excellent time for military training.

It is a pity that there is still not enough Mo Dao. There are only more than [-] Mo Dao and Gaomenggang Mingguang armor shipped from Chang'an.With a wave of Chen Ying's hand, the soldiers of the Modao Army were divided into two waves for training. Half of the soldiers did not wear armor or hold the Modao.

The other half were wearing Mingguang armor, holding Mo Dao and following orders, stepping on drums, pushing forward like a wall.As the training continued, the cooperation between the soldiers of the Zhongmo Sword Army became more and more close.

The training of the officers and men of the Modao Army is actually just a few moves, heavy chopping from top to bottom, reverse chopping from right to left, thrusting from bottom to top, and straight chopping from left to right.

However, it is undeniable that although Mo Daojun's sword technique is simple, it is concise and ruthless.It was done in one go, without tricks, simple and practical. If Mo Dao's hands were to slash and slash like this on the battlefield, there would probably be dead bodies all over the field long ago.

"Woooo..." Every time before dawn, Chen Ying, who was overly energetic, blew the thick and desolate battle horn.Mo Dao Shou, Long Soldiers, Short Soldiers, Shesheng, Hook and Sickle Spears, and other arms, got up in a hurry like burning their buttocks, and used biting cold water to expel the sleepiness in their heads.

No one could do anything about it. Chen Ying didn't beat or curse anyone when he was late. The key point was that Chen Ying was hungry.

As long as you have a stick of incense, you can't complete the fully armed assembly. I'm sorry, but I won't ask about breakfast.In such a cold day, if you still can't eat under such intense training, that's a terrible thing.Chen Ying has no sympathy to talk about, no food for being late, and no food for failing to meet the training standards.After the whole army assembled, there was no lecturing or morale boosting, and a five-kilometer fully armed cross-country warm-up was carried out first.

After completing the five-kilometer cross-country, breakfast is served. Of course, the time is only a quarter of an hour and two sticks of incense. The equivalent time for future generations is only about 10 minutes. Soldiers who have not completed the cross-country warm-up, sorry, they don’t have to eat breakfast, they can have it together at noon.

When Guo Luo came to Chen Ying, the new Lord, he felt very curious.In particular, Chen Ying's wealth and wealth gave Guo Luo a new understanding of Chen Ying.

On the first day he became the deputy commander of the Tiger Yicong, the quartermaster gave him a pair of Mingguang armor made of high manganese steel. Of course, the Mingguang armor equipped by ordinary generals is completely different from the Mingguang armor of the Modao Army. .The Mingguang armor of the Modao Army weighs 35 kilograms. It can be exempted from shooting bows and arrows other than the bed crossbow at medium and short distances. Even if it is a three-stone bow and arrow, if you don’t use a specially made armor-piercing cone, you don’t have to worry about being hurt at all.But the Mingguang armor of ordinary infantry only weighs fifteen catties.

Armor and tanks are actually the same thing, the heavier the weight, the higher the defense.The fifteen-pound high-manganese steel Mingguang armor can't ignore bows and arrows like the Modao Army's Mingguang armor, but you don't have to worry about bows and arrows under one stone. For three-stone heavy crossbows and strong bows above three stones, they are powerless.

However, there is no need to worry about this. The pulling force of a three-stone bow and arrow requires 360 catties. Generally speaking, unless you are a talented player with super strength, you can't do anything about it.Not to mention that there is only fifteen catties of Mingguang armor, there is only one scratch when the horizontal knife is cut on it.
