Chapter 207: Understanding the Crazy Magic Gunsmanship, Moon Eclipse
Li Yeling shook his head and stopped the thoughts in his heart. How could he think of this now?
Li Yeling said lightly: "Get up."
"Is this the square spear that Macedonia has been praised by later generations?" After the two stood up, Li Yeling took the spear and looked at it in his hand.
The first feeling is that it is heavy, and it is sunk when it starts. This spear is still equivalent to the weight, weighing about 14 or 5 kilograms, which means that heavy infantry like Macedonia, who are tall and big, can use it as a weapon.
The second feeling is that it is long, thick and long. Macedonian spears are one of the longest weapons in world history. Generally, Macedonian spears are about six meters and six. Because Li Yeling is a row long, his spear is longer, reaching seven meters. The body of the adult's wrist is made of Shanlaiying wood, and the spear tips about seventy centimeters are made of metal, including copper, bronze, and iron.
Li Yeling, Shanlai Yingmu, is not unfamiliar with this extremely hard and flexible wood. This wood comes from near his hometown. Alexander's father, Philip, created the prototype of the Macedonian phalanx, while Alexander perfected the Macedonian phalanx and defeated countless enemies with it. Among them, the spear made an indelible contribution.
The surface of the spear rod of the spear was wrapped in linen, and the blood that had been stained with on it had been cleaned. Even the tip of the spear, which had been dyed black by the blood, burst out with a sharp cold light again. This is all the credit of Shavanai and his daughter.
Li Yeling held the spear with both hands, his left hand was three feet away and his right hand was five feet away. He held his hands tightly, and a sense of familiarity like flesh and blood suddenly surged into his heart. It seemed that once, he used this spear to gallop across the battlefield, killing countless enemies, and penetrated the enemy's heads on the tip of the spear.
Li Yeling shouted loudly, penetrated his arms and stabbed his gun hard into the void ahead. Shanlaiying Mun was a kind of wood with excellent toughness and elasticity. Li Yeling's powerful force rushed into the spear, and the sorrow suddenly shook, and the huge spear head was like a poisonous snake's head, drilling around, dancing a ball of snow-colored spear flowers about a foot in the radiant radiant spear flowers.
Li Yeling only felt a rumbling thoughts rolling in his head. He could no longer tell what kind of emotion this was, whether it was someone else's or his own, whether it was enlightened or indoctrinated. In that ball of thought, small figures suddenly appeared, each holding a long thing in his hand, posing one by one.
Li Yeling couldn't help but follow the small figures to make one move after another. At first, it was just a single move. Later, Li Yeling's movements became faster and faster, and the small figures in his mind were also turning faster and faster. In the end, they almost overlapped together and almost became one.
With the movements of the little people in his mind, Li Yeling also moved faster and faster. In the end, he could hardly see any shadows in his entire body. From a distance, he could only see a large ball of yellow light rolling in front of the camp. The ball of light emitted a burst of intense wind, which gales and splashed sand and stones.
Fortunately, the open space in front of Hogles camp was large enough, otherwise he would not be able to withstand this action.
The Macedonian soldiers and Shavanai, who witnessed this scene, were both stunned and looked disbelief. When did these Southern Europeans who have always advocated brute force and did not have many skills in combat have seen such exquisite and powerful gunshot techniques?
The wind roared, and the ball of light suddenly stopped suddenly. The wind and sand dissipated. Li Yeling stood quietly in the field, with a spear on the ground, still moving. This instant change from extreme movement to extreme quiet made people's vision react incorrectly, making others feel extremely uncomfortable, and they felt dizzy and were about to vomit.
But now you are in surprise.
"Li Yeling, the God-Selected No. 763, has learned the 'Crazy Sword' by himself! The current level of marksmanship is level 1."
However, Li Yeling did not expect that he would understand the spear and use his own freedom to understand the spear, which was really a surprise. Since he was called the "crazy spear" and had his own name, the level of martial arts would not be too low. It can be imagined that his main weapon in this battlefield was this spear. After comprehending the spear before the war, he would have much more capital to save his life.
Li Yeling has always been focusing too much on firearms and hand-to-hand combat, which has led to his lack of cold weapons. The emergence of Crazy Spearing has also made up for this lack.
Moreover, this time, self-comprehension also opened a closed door for Li Yeling. It turned out that the martial arts and mental techniques were not all obtained by exchange, and they could also be obtained by self-comprehension.
Li Yeling suddenly realized something in his heart. Now in reality, what he lacks and is most embarrassing is the combat method of cold weapons. At this moment, the main god allowed himself to enter the battlefield of cold weapons. Moreover, if he understands this shooting technique, he will not believe it if he has nothing to do with the main god, he will not believe it if he kills him.
Does this mean that every battlefield is a way to make up for one's own shortcomings? In this way, you have to be more careful. Maybe you can get some opportunities to strengthen yourself in this battlefield.
After understanding this shooting technique, Li Yeling felt very happy. He laughed and walked towards his tent. He still had some thoughts in his mind and needed to make a good plan.
Seeing that Li Yelingli ignored him and walked inside, Shawanayi grabbed the corner of Li Yeling's clothes in a hurry and whispered: "Sir, Nageyi feels a little uncomfortable today. I really can't serve you anymore. Just let her go! I'll serve you today!"
Li Yeling was stunned and smiled and said, "No need to serve tonight, you can have a good rest!"
How could he care about such things on the eve of the war? Besides, Li Yeling traveled through his body and soul this time. If he brought them to the two of them, wouldn’t he be very sorry for Yan Qingyuan? Without feelings, it may not be so comfortable to do that kind of thing.
Li Yeling has already entered the big tent, and Shavanai still stared at his back blankly. Why did this master change today? He used to have to struggle for a while every night, but today, his whole person seems to have become different.
When Li Yeling returned to the tent, Roger was lying on his floor and slept soundly. His sleeping posture was terrible and he drooled all over the floor. Fortunately, this guy at least didn't snore. Li Yeling himself did not snore, but there was a snoring emperor in their dormitory. Snoring at night was shocking and ghosts were so heartbroken that he could even hear the dormitory opposite. Li Yeling hated him deeply.
Li Yeling walked to his bed, sat down gently, and began his next plan.
I just realized this set of "crazy magic gun technique". This is a capital that I can rely on in the future and needs to be consolidated. According to Li Yeling's memory, the next formation of Alexander's army should be along the Tigris River and heading south until I came to the location of the Gaugamila Plain. In this way, the road should be relatively calm. In this way, I can practice gun technique for a period of time every night.
Li Yeling calmed down and entered the exchange interface of the main god space. However, he found that the exchange interface that had always been displayed in green was now gray. Li Yeling casually ordered a cheap thing and tried it, but it was indeed impossible to exchange it.
"As it really impossible to redeem it? It seems that the main god has also made several restrictions after opening the integrated into the battlefield mode. The inability to redeem it in the battlefield should be one of the restrictions. I just don't know if there are any other restrictions." Li Yeling murmured to himself.
This restriction also disrupted one of Li Yeling's arrangements. He just wanted to exchange for a large gun. The Crazy Spearing Technique was naturally more convenient and powerful with a gun. The best large gun in the world is of course the big gun in China's Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms and even the Hebei spear in the Northern Song Dynasty. At that time, Yue Fei and Yue Wumu hit the 400 military states with a large gun with a white wax pole, and became invincible.
Since it cannot be exchanged now, we can only use this spear. However, although the material of this spear is not as good as ash wax pole carefully cultivated by people, it is also very flexible and elastic. If you use it alive, it is also fine.
Li Yeling lay on the bed and rested for a while, and then it was time for supper.
In ancient times, when large army marched, soldiers always brought their own dry food. If they finished eating their own food, they would have nothing to eat.
However, the system of the Macedonian Kingdom is more humane. They use platoons as units, and each platoon has a baggage team of several people. This baggage team is specifically responsible for collecting food from logistics before departure, and then transporting protective food during the march, and then sending it out at meal time. In order to ensure that there is enough food and not waste by these big-bellied men, the daily food supply is quantitative.
Because Roger was his fellow countryman, the captain of the baggage team became him.
When it was time for dinner, Li Yeling didn't need to call him. Roger rushed up from the bed with a whoosh. Li Yeling admired such an accurate biological clock.
Roger's eyes shone out with bright eyes and dragged a large cloth pocket out of the corners of the tent, and took out a small bag from it. The bag contained the food for dinner today.
Roger smiled at Hogles, came outside the tent, and rang the small drum that had been hanging around his waist. The sound of dong dong sounded. At the same time, almost all directions of the camp, such drums were heard, which was the rice drum of the Macedonian army.
The food is buckwheat bread and jerky meat. Buckwheat bread has always been the main food in Southeast Europe, and it has been since ancient times. At this time, the buckwheat bread was obviously not very particular. It was square, dark-brown, and heavy in the hands, like a brick. But it was definitely enough, each piece weighed one pound, and it was full. These military men were all big and thick, and one piece of bread was enough for one person.
The jerky meat is wild donkey meat and bacon. A few days ago, when I just passed the Euphrates River, I happened to encounter a group of hundreds of desert wild donkeys, all of which were killed by the soldiers and made into jerky meat. Each person only had a small piece of jerky meat, but these soldiers were already content. It was not easy to eat meat in the army.
After distributing the food, it was already dark, and the soldiers gathered together in groups of three or five, ignited a bonfire, cooked hot soup and water to eat. Roger turned around secretly, stuffed the bag in his hand to Li Yeling, and said, "Horgles, what's in it, hehe..."
Li Yeling understood what he meant. When he opened the bag, he saw that there were three pieces of bread and a lot of jerky meat. Li Yeling now had a lot of appetite and was not polite to him. He took away two-thirds of the amount and handed the bag back to him.
Roger smiled, cleaned up the dead branches and leaves, lit a bonfire, and invited Li Yeling to eat and drink together.
Although the buckwheat bread is not good, it tastes good, with a natural fragrance. The dried wild donkey meat is made of cypress branches, which has a unique flavor. Li Yeling chewed it in his mouth and looked up at the sky. Tonight, there were no stars or moons, and the sky was covered with dark clouds and darkness. It looked like tomorrow should not be a good weather.
If it rains heavily, will there be any problem with the camp beside the river? Li Yeling had an idea in his mind and laughed at himself: "I am worried about what this is done. The adults above are worried that the priests in the army are not just for a good meal. The combat skills of ancient people were not better than those of me, as a modern person? Why should I point fingers?"
At this moment, suddenly, a strong wind blew in the sky, whistling and rolling. The ground suddenly appeared with a piece of flying sand and stones, but Li Yeling and others were located at a low ground between two small hills, which had a smaller impact. After the soldiers arrived in Persia, they had already adapted to the harsh weather here. It was not surprising that strong winds would occur in the desert wasteland of Persia at all times.
A big black bearded soldier chewed the jerky bite and said carelessly: "Does Alexander take us to the end of the world? What's the good thing about this damn East? Savage, backward, and a group of Persians like wild dogs. It's not like our Macedonia, sheep and horses every day, gather together to drink and eat meat, dance and sing, how comfortable!"
The bearded man's words were immediately responded by everyone, and everyone agreed. The bearded man laughed out loud in pride.
At this time, Macedonia had a class concept that was not as serious as later generations, especially Westerners, which seemed to have a rebellious and freedom factor in nature. It was difficult to make them respect the superiors like the Easterners. Moreover, these soldiers followed Alexander to fight because of their personal charm and interests. Most of them were citizens, and some were low-level nobles. At this time, Macedonia, even a king, could not kill a citizen at will.
"It seems that these Macedonian soldiers are quite tired of war and return home! No wonder this is the case. It has been three or four years since Alexander's first expedition to the south. These days, these soldiers have not returned home and have been fighting. No wonder they have such an idea. Could this be the variable of this battle?" Li Yeling shook his head and immediately denied his thoughts.
The soldiers' thoughts were more of a way to complain and vent. When Alexander used money, beauty and glory to encourage their desire to kill, they became hunting dogs for Alexander to motivate.
Li Yeling stood up and stretched out his arms, but he didn't feel the traces of wetness in the wind.
At this moment, the wind suddenly became bigger, and even the tent was blown, shaking left and right. The clouds in the sky gradually faded with the blow of the strong wind, and eventually turned into wisps of tiny and invisible airflow and disappeared into the air.
At this moment, the wind miraculously stopped, and the world was calm, as if there had never been the strong wind just now.
The black sky became brighter, and a bright moon hung in the sky, the wind blew and the clouds blew, and the moon shone.
The Tigris River not far away emits waves, the moonlight shines on it, and a silver light shines all over the sky. This scene is beautiful.
The soldiers shouted excitedly. A night with moon is always much better than a starry sky covered with dark clouds. The Macedonian soldiers who advocate freedom have begun to circle the bonfires, and several soldiers even began to dance.
Li Yeling was so excited about his reputation. He always felt a lingering gloom in his heart, as if something big was about to happen.
Sure enough, shortly after the moon appeared, a change suddenly occurred in the sky.
The moon was actually getting darker little by little, at first on the edge, and then getting inside more and more. In the end, the whole moon had completely turned black and could no longer be seen. And this was not due to the obstruction of dark clouds, because not far from the moon, a shining star was blinking at people.
Seeing this scene, the entire Macedonian camp was silent in an instant. The soldiers singing and dancing in front of Li Yeling's tent were all looking at the sky blankly as if they were petrified.
The whole scene was so quiet that it made people feel heartbroken. Just after the silence, the soldiers suddenly burst into a loud wave, everyone was making noise, everyone was excited, of course, there was still an unstoppable panic on their faces. People didn't know what they were talking about, they only knew to shout and make a fuss, and the whole scene was in chaos.
This scene was happening not only here in Li Yeling, but also in the entire Alexander's army's camp. Huge sounds swept across the entire camp, and Alexander's invincible army was in great panic because of a sudden lunar eclipse.
"This lunar eclipse finally arrived as scheduled. According to historical records, the ten days after the lunar eclipse were the battle between the Macedonian army and the Persian army on the Gaugamila plain. If you say this, the war is not far away. These soldiers actually had such a reaction. Is this the impact of the lunar eclipse on ancient people? No wonder, the ancient generals attached great importance to the celestial phenomena.
Li Yeling's face was full of disbelief. The moon turned completely black and blocked Jupiter. Saturn outside the four fingers was visible. This was just a very common astronomical phenomenon, but for ancient people who did not understand this knowledge, there were many explanations. Human nature often believed in explanations that were not conducive to themselves.
"Alexander made a mistake. He brought us to this damn, cursed East, and directed us to attack other people's kingdoms, resulting in natural anger and blocking the light of the moon! This is an ominous sign!"
It was the bearded man just now. His remarks quickly received support from the soldiers. The soldiers rushed to ask Alexander to take them back to the country. Li Yeling watched coldly. The bearded man looked rough and arrogant, but he couldn't tell that he had the potential of a charlatan. He was very capable of bewitching people's hearts, and he could instantly raise it to the theoretical level. It seemed that he was also a well-educated master, not simple!
If it weren't for the panic on his face or the pretending, Li Yeling would even suspect that this was a spy sent by Persia.
Due to this lunar eclipse, the morale of the entire Macedonian army almost instantly dropped to freezing point.
Listening to the noise like surging waves in his ears and looking at the panicked soldiers, Li Yeling suddenly had a wonderful idea in his heart. If he made good use of it, this lunar eclipse tonight would be a wonderful opportunity for him!
At the same time, the Macedonian camp was one hundred kilometers southward, and the Persian army camp was camped.
The camp of the Persian army was located not far south from the Gaugamila Plain. To the west is the quietly flowing Tigris River, and to the east is the wide Persian Empire Avenue. Three hundred kilometers south of this place is the royal city of the Persian Empire. The wide and sturdy Empire Avenue and the good transportation system formed over hundreds of years can provide sufficient food and military support for the frontline.
Therefore, Darius III gathered here an army that was far larger than the Macedonian army.
Of course, it's just the scale.
Compared with the camps of the Macedonian army, the camps of the Persian army are even more magnificent. Hundreds of thousands of people are stationed together. In the camps that stretch for hundreds of miles, countless flags are waving in the wind, roaring in the night wind. If you look down from a high altitude, the tents are like marching ants, and a large black ant colony is now covering this wasteland.
At this time, these marching ants turned into ants on the hot pan, and the camp was shrouded in panic.
The lunar eclipse just now not only caused panic among the Macedonian soldiers, but also caused great fear among the Persian soldiers. Because the Persians have a longer history and believe in gods more than the Macedonians, the Persian soldiers also come from different races, and even the gods they believe in. However, no matter which religion or god they believe in, the explanation of the lunar eclipse is the same: that is an ominous sign.
Since the defeat of the Battle of Issus to Alexander two years ago, Darius III has worked hard in the past two years. He ordered the enlistment of troops in various provinces of the empire and formed an extremely large but low-quality infantry unit.
But how can it take two years to build a strong army? What's more, this army has been huddled in the city of Babylon and has never seen a real war. These soldiers do not even have the basic qualities of being a soldier, and the officers under Darius, which mainly consists of Persian nobles, are also indecent.
