Chapter 111 Combat Readiness
"drop!"
After a beep, Li Xian was refreshed, and received the first wireless electromagnetic message in a substantial sense - "General Zhu Song led nearly a thousand weak soldiers to patrol Diqiu"
The newsletter was sent by Chai Dongcheng, and the news was conclusive, but unfortunately it was a bit sketchy, and the number of words was still not enough.
Li Xian hurriedly called his school official and informed him of the "enemy situation".
"Ah Xian, do you want to fight or scare?"
The secondary school officer asked the superior officer seriously.
"This kind of greedy person, it's useless to scare him, he will only know when he hurts, he can't take a bite of everything."
Master Li pointed to the map and drew a circle beside the official road near Diqiu.
"Lead them to the edge of the open forest, and fight a prepared battle on the established battlefield!"
Li Xian knew that such miscellaneous generals would not have any elite soldiers under their command, but this battle was Di Qiu's first battle since he became an army.
"Here!"
After months of tempering and training, the Black Armored Army has done a great job in cultivating discipline and combat awareness, especially the drills and various decomposition and coordination movements.The "veterans" who had been trained by the middle school's supervisors scattered into the new barracks as the commanders and platoon leaders at the grassroots level. When training those honest recruits, it would be even worse. There is a rule that corporal punishment is not allowed to beat soldiers for no reason. I am afraid that stupid recruits will be beaten even worse.
Today's 4000 regular soldiers and [-] semi-professional soldiers, a total of more than [-] people are completely or semi-out of production. Compared with Diqiu who has absorbed deserters now, there are only more than [-] people, which is really a burden. It is very tiring. You must know that at the end of the Han Dynasty when the warlords fought, the wealth of the Shu and Tang Dynasties could only support one soldier or official with ten people, and the people's livelihood was already extremely miserable.
Diqiu’s way of doing things, if Mr. Li hadn’t used the grain supported by the Zheng Clan and the old grain obtained in exchange for “treasure seeds” and farm tools, and at the same time tried his best to use semi-mechanization to promote industrial and peasant production, the people would have been sucked dry. Blood.
However, the surrounding area is turbulent, and there are various forces watching over it. If it is a little weak, it may be swallowed up in one gulp.
Fortunately, the soldiers of Diqiu are not only supported by the people of Diqiu. Because of the export of various advanced technologies and products of Mr. Li, the food and money exchanged by the surrounding big households, and even the counties in the county, can be regarded as a county or even a county. The rest of the force was used to support the eight hundred soldiers.
Li Xian drove Di Qiu, a newborn beast that had just erupted its milk teeth, stumbling forward, devouring all available resources, growing desperately, growing fangs and sharp claws, only then was it qualified to intimidate it with a single move all directions.
What Di Qiu lacks most now is people, people, people!
Master Li was disrespectful of General Zhuangwei sending someone to his door so politely. He repeatedly told the Colonel Zhong that if the situation is good during the battle, we should try to kill as little as possible while ensuring the absolute safety of our personnel.
After all, we are all the people of the Great Swallow, and it is different from that Man Hu. He can shoot his hands and feet but not his vital parts, and he can catch those he can catch and don't let them go. No matter how weak this group of soldiers is, he is also a good laborer who is used to work!
If the battle is not going well-of course, this possibility is not very high. If it is a regular sergeant who is well-trained, wears armor, and has the advanced weapons of Mr. Li, he will not be able to fight against the gang who professionally farm for the general and part-time rob and extort caravans and land. Lord's miscellaneous soldiers, let's break up as soon as possible!
Mr. Li just thought carefully and ordered the school officer, if there is any unforeseen situation, he must ensure the safety of his own army, and he must kill him if he should, and he must not be soft-hearted.
The school officer chuckled lightly and agreed.
He never knew that in Ah Xian's mind, he, a fighter who got mixed up in the bloody battlefield since he was a child, was actually a gentle and kind person.
If it is said that the heart is kind and the hand is soft, isn't it that Ah Xian, who is hard-spoken and soft-hearted, has collected batch after batch of poor people, and even shared the joys and sorrows with the people, and worked hard for the people?
For Ah Xian, for his family, for the land he wants to protect, even if his hands are stained with enemy blood, so what?

"Get out! Roll sideways! Pull out the rope and kick your feet! Damn mother, are you going to tie yourself into a rice dumpling and give it away?"
Captain Lao Zhong was tied up into a group by those few urban management members who practiced their bundling skills, and the stupid urban management team members were so angry that their beards straightened.
Di Qiu may have a war, although it is a secret, but how can he, a former general and veteran army who wades through mountains of corpses and blood, not feel the tense atmosphere?
The women in the family were busy weaving armor and repairing skins for days, and even A Qiao, who was the most thoughtful and gentle, was too tired to talk to him; the daughters were busy making pot helmets, and they were mysterious when they asked, and they refused to ask more. Said, isn't the military plane that is a fart just to make some non-perishable marching rations, I can figure it out with my toes, and I need to spy on the military plane? !
The son is even better. The older one used to live in the military camp every day. Occasionally, Xiu Mu would go to the government office to pay the public rations. Besides thinking about his mother, he remembered going back to the women's camp from time to time, completely forgetting that he still had A dad who patrols the streets!
The little one thought it was a meek and incompetent domestic dog, but when he came to such a wicked place as Diqiu, he actually had the ferocious and cunning nature of a jackal, tsk!In the past, I couldn't see this temperament, but now it's good, I became the "military adviser" of the youth regiment, and I tried my best to block the intersections everywhere, and anyone with a crooked mind would not be able to get into Diqiu.
It's just that the sons, daughters and wives are all capable and have important things to do, but the head of his family has become a wild dog with no home to live in, bah!It is a lonely lion!Is it really useless to treat me as old? !
Lao Zhong felt that since he could take care of the strong physique of his three wives this night, forty years would be a good time, how could he support the elderly?
Although there are some waste materials in the urban management team, there are also uses for waste materials.
With his heroic prowess of killing barbarian chieftains for thousands of miles, it is really overkill to catch some country fools who steal chickens and dogs and defecate everywhere all day long!
However, there are too few urban management officers under his command, so they can't be used for any big purpose. Hearing that Diqiu might have a battle, and it's against the rotten shrimp soldiers of some miscellaneous fish general in Shangjun, Shangbing Prefecture, Lao Zhong was suddenly moved.
Not enough people, catch it!
The talent of his second child, coupled with the newly learned method of organizing soldiers, to be honest, even if he trained those frontier soldiers back then, it would not be as effective.When the black-armored soldier put on his armor for practice, he also had the permission of the Li family boy to watch the "exercise" battle formation together.
On that day, the black-armored gun forest was solemn and orderly, dancing like the wind, dense arrows like rain, and murderous!
Although there were only a small formation of less than a thousand people, the battle was majestic and majestic. The arms were matched, and the combination of strong crossbows and armored soldiers was even more difficult to resist. After watching this exercise, Lao Zhong quietly asked himself, if the number of soldiers was equal , what should I do when I meet the pruned Jia army like the second child?
He didn't give himself an answer, so he turned around and gave a dead hand to the scumbags of his urban management, making sure these Lai Han learn the method of rolling the ground knife and binding people, hum!Isn't it true that soldiers can't go to the battlefield, can't tie prisoners, can't catch people?

"Lin Quan, how is the 'drug' prepared?"
Lord Li secretly summoned Lin Quan to inquire about the progress of something.
"My lord, the prescription is simple, but it's extremely difficult to 'purify' it. The people who make it must be reliable, and safety regulations must be followed, so the output is very small. Now a batch has been trial-produced, and I'm afraid it won't be of much use."
Li Xian nodded, and didn't count this thing as combat power.
This medicine is gunpowder.
Of course, Zhong Daxian’s prescriptions have all kinds of powerful explosive recipes, which can rot for a mile when they are moved, but those "modern" things are really not something he can play in this small place in the middle ages. A tree is dead if it is crushed.
At that time, it was also for the convenience of excavating mountains and getting stones, so I wanted to find a suitable prescription. Zhong Daxian recommended this simple, basically "safe" formula that was in line with the technological strength of the times.
It is said that this thing has been used well, it can be used on the battlefield, and it can be launched from large and small steel pipes, which is invincible in this era.
However, if the technology is to evolve to the point where thermal weapons can be used, Zhong Daxian said, educate a generation well, and Mr. Li strive to live in triple digits, then it is still very possible to achieve the battle of "queuing up and shooting".
Although I don't understand what this means, the native Li also understands that it probably means that this is a thermal weapon that can be commonly used in the army, and there is probably no hope in the "lifetime".
Fortunately, although Zhong Daxian said that the hot weapon is the terminator of the nomadic barbarians, he never thought of taking such a big responsibility. With his own strength, he really made this thing and wiped out those barbarians. His original intention was just to pave the way It's easier to dig stones!
Now that there is a fat pig coming to the door to be slaughtered, and the Black Armor Army is about to unseat, Mr. Li will inevitably feel itchy, wanting to try this thing that is said to be extremely powerful.
After all, in this year when there are no firecrackers and fireworks, it is really difficult for the natives to imagine what an explosion is.
Now that the medicine is not ready, it's a pity that we can't try it on those weak soldiers.
Master Li clicked his tongue, although he felt a little regretful, but think about what Zhong Daxian said about the power of landmines and explosives, um, after the next secret experiment, let's open it on Man Hu!
These weak soldiers of Zhu Zhuangwei are still the people of my Great Swallow. How can those who lack arms and legs be "reformed through labor"?
The confident Lord Li, although he was ready to fight, never imagined how a hero like Zhong Er and a black-armored soldier would lose to such rotten soldiers.
Strategically ignored, tactically valued.
Li Xiaowei regards this motto of the Taizu of a certain dynasty as a standard.
Zhu Zhuangwei, grandpa has been with you for a long time!
Over there, it dragged on for five full days, and on the sixth day, the Huwei Battalion, which was flying like dogs and dogs, had mobilized all the soldiers it should have. It's just that the weapon was kept in the warehouse for a long time, and the general suddenly became angry. To patrol the edge, the string is tired, the blade is rusty, and the leather wooden handle is worm-eaten, how can it be used?
It took another three days to repair the equipment and arrest the peasants, and finally managed to gather the "soldiers" of a thousand men. General Zhu smugly raised his whip and pointed in the direction of Diqiu in the southwest, licked his fat lips, and ordered: "Let's go! "
