Chapter 170 Heavy Armored Infantry
,,,,,,,,,,,,
According to Liu Jing's plan, he was to build a heavy armored infantry with a thousand-man man, and his weapon was to kill sabers. This heavy armored infantry was not afraid of arrows or cavalry attacks. He would be his elite army to charge into battle and face the cavalry.
But building such an army takes time and effort, requiring a large amount of high-quality steel and the most exquisite blacksmiths. Last year, the Tao family invited ten high-level blacksmiths from Kuaiji County and Wu County at a high price, and recruited several blacksmiths in Jiangxia. They took a whole year to create a heavy armor and a sharp two-edged sword.
Liu Jing also selected famous tall and strong soldiers among the soldiers. Everyone was over eight feet tall, with big arms and round waists and infinite strength. Liu Hu led this most elite heavy armored soldier.
Liu Jing slowly came to the southwest corner and saw heavy armored soldiers wearing thick armor, with iron scales made of fine steel on their bodies shining brightly. From head to toe, they were closed tightly, only with their nose and eyes exposed. The entire armor weighed ten kilograms, plus the ten kilograms of sharp two-edged knife, each soldier was weighing sixty kilograms.
This is undoubtedly a heavy burden and cannot last long battle. There is only one solution, that is, strengthen training and allow soldiers to gradually adapt to this heavy pressure.
On the school ground, famous soldiers stood in rows, waving the sharp two-edged swords in their hands. The long swords were flying like snowflakes, and the cold air was shining. For a general who was also slicing heavy armor, everyone knew who he was.
"Kill"
Liu Hu shouted loudly, and the big sword in his hand slashed horizontally. The heavily armored infantry behind him shouted at the same time, slashing the long sword at the same time, and a flash of sword light flashed.
At this time, Liu Hu saw Liu Jing coming from afar, stopped training, turned around and ordered: "Unlock the armor and rest for half an hour."
Dozens of soldiers next to him rushed forward to remove armor for the soldiers. Liu Hu also took off his armor, sweating all over and all his underwear was soaked. He picked up the water hyacinth and drank it happily. Then he smiled at Liu Jing and said, "This kind of training is not bad. I found that my strength has increased again."
Liu Jing walked up to the front row of his shoulders and smiled and said, "Let me tell you good news first."
Liu Hu scratched his head, "What good news?"
"The Iron Workshop has built the first saber"
Liu Hu jumped up in surprise, "Where is the knife?"
He had been looking forward to the slashing sword for a long time. As his martial arts gradually improved, he finally understood the way Liu Jing taught him to spear. Feng nodded, Feng turned around and swept the phoenix wings. He could not use the essence of this move with a knife. He had to use weapons that could stab and chop, and his large kitchen knife became less and less popular with him.
He was looking forward to the birth of the saberata. He had seen the pattern. It was a particularly slender war knife. At the same time, the front section was sharp and could pierce the chest like a sword. It was simply a weapon designed for this move.
"Sima, can I use the knife first?" Liu Hu's eyes were full of longing.
Liu Jing smiled, "Leave the knife for the craftsmen to study it for another two days to create the second saber, and I will give it to you one."
Although Liu Hu was itchy, he had no choice but to sigh. Liu Jing sat on the ground opposite him, picked up a small wooden stick and drew it a few times on the ground, and said to Liu Hu: "The most powerful thing about heavy armored soldiers is not their personal courage, but a collective force. They want to form an iron plate, stand together, walk in sync, like a wall, and must not be beaten and left alone. On the battlefield, once heavy armored soldiers are single, they will die. Do you understand what I mean?"
Liu Hu nodded silently, "I understand."
"You understand it alone, but you must also let all soldiers understand and make them realize the importance of collective strength. For example, when you are resting now, you can organize everyone to discuss how the enemy can use to deal with heavy armored soldiers, and then how we should deal with it, and to exert the enthusiasm of everyone, and you, the commander, will be qualified."
"Then I'll go now"
Liu Hu got up and strode towards the soldiers. Liu Jing didn't catch him and looked at him yelling among the soldiers, "Everyone comes to the tiger's side, let's discuss how to avoid death."
Liu Jing couldn't help but shake his head and smiled. He found that Liu Hu and Wei Yan were two different things. Wei Yan was extremely strict, meticulous, but fair, and won the respect of the soldiers, and was also a little scared.
However, Liu Hu has a natural affinity that makes people have to like him. Whether soldiers or generals call him tiger, they can even fight with him when they are dissatisfied with him. It is this kind of brotherly friendship that has also won the sincere love of soldiers.
In contrast, Liao Hua and Li Jun seem a little mediocre and have nothing outstanding.
At this time, a soldier rushed over and knelt down on one knee in front of Liu Jing to report: "Report to Sima, someone is looking for him outside the military camp, it seems that it is General Zhao Yun."
Liu Jing was very happy. Zhao Yun was here. He hadn't seen Zhao Yun for almost a year, but he immediately became confused. Why did Zhao Yun come to Chaisang?
Liu Jing quickly walked outside the camp gate and saw that Zhao Yun was wearing a military uniform and riding on a war horse, smiling on his face. He followed two followers dozens of steps behind him.
Seeing Liu Jing come out, Zhao Yun could not hide his inner joy and urged the horse to come forward, "Brother, we haven't seen each other for a long time."
He turned over and dismounted, and the two hugged each other tightly. Zhao Yun looked him up and down again, sighing: "If you haven't seen each other for a year, you are stronger and stronger."
"If you practice hard every day and eat a lot, you will naturally grow stronger."
Liu Jing smiled and asked again: "How could the elder brother think of coming to Chaisang?"
"I'll see if you can't?" Zhao Yun asked seriously.
"Of course, it's just that you don't have time, and you didn't write a letter in advance."
Zhao Yun smiled and patted his shoulder, "Of course I don't have time to see you specially. This time I accompanied my lord to Changsha County for medical treatment. After Chaisang, I came to see you specially."
"Uncle Liu is sick," Liu Jing asked in surprise.
Zhao Yun hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm not sick, but I haven't gotten it for a long time. He was anxious. He heard that Zhang Jishan, the guard of Changsha, had to come to Changsha for medical treatment."
Liu Jing nodded, and it turned out that's it. He thought to himself, could it be that Liu Bei finally had Liu Chan after the medical treatment.
At this time, Zhao Yun raised his true intention again, "The last time I competed with you was in the battle of Shinno, and it has been a year and a half. I want to try your martial arts. Come on, let's compete."
Liu Jing was also very itchy. Over the past year, he not only had his strength greatly improved, but also had a deeper understanding of the bird-to-phoenix gun. At this time, compared with his battle in Xinye, he seemed to be reborn.
Soon, the two of them wore their clothes on the battlefield, and Liu Jing's green shadow gun was abandoned. Half a year ago, the craftsmen at the Iron Workshop used high-quality steel to build a crescent halberd for him, which was 100 feet long and weighed 68 kilograms. He had already mastered it.
Zhao Yun was a little surprised. Liu Jing actually started to use a halberd. The halberd was more fierce than a gun. Not only did it have the assassination of a gun, but he could also use a knife to chop it. Zhao Yun initially practiced a halberd, but his master Yuzhen insisted on asking him to use a gun because Zhao Yun lacked a domineering aura. The halberd was the martial arts of the domineering master. Zhao Yun nodded secretly, and he also felt that Liu Jing was more suitable for using a halberd.
"Come on, do your best." Zhao Yunyuan shouted.
Liu Jing looked at Zhao Yun, gently pinched his legs to the war horse, and the war horse began to trot, and then ran faster and faster, as fast as the wind. Liu Jing waved his long halberd and stabbed straight towards Zhao Yun's throat. The halberd was neither too fast nor too slow, but it was filled with force, as heavy as a mountain. This was also a move, but nodded, but it no longer had the feeling of being as fast as lightning, as if it had become dull.
But Zhao Yun could feel the murderous intent in the ordinary. This was a simple move. He didn't dare to be careless in his heart. He shouted, "It's good."
With his arms trembling, the spear spear spear spear spear spear was speared out nine spear heads and wrapped around the spear. This was the bird's phoenix, the world's first move to seal the imperial power. When a loud noise was heard, the spear swept away, Zhao Yun broke Liu Jing's head-on attack, and the two horses intertwined, Zhao Yun's gun hit him, and with a sharp sound of wind, he rushed straight to Liu Jing's back. This attack severely injured Gao Lan.
Liu Jing picked the long spear lightly, with subtle force, and accurately picked the gun hammer out. In the first round, the two of them tied, and even Zhao Yun couldn't help cheering. A good young general, he shouted excitedly: "Brother Jing, let's come again."
This time, Zhao Yun stabbed the gun quickly and took the initiative. Liu Jing shouted loudly and waved his halberd to greet him. The two fought in a group on the school field.
Not far away, Liu Hu opened his mouth wide. He clearly remembered that two years ago, Liu Jing could not withstand Zhao Yun for one round. Now they have fought for more than a dozen rounds. Liu Hu was envious and sad in his heart. His little martial arts had far surpassed him.
But the most surprising thing was Zhao Yun. He never dreamed that Liu Jing's martial arts had improved so quickly. He had fought with him for fifteen rounds. Although his strength was inferior to his, his understanding of the bird phoenix gun was no less than that of himself.
However, Zhao Yun's experience was far superior to Liu Jing, which made him take the initiative quickly and fought for several more rounds. When the two horses were in conflict again, Zhao Yun held the gun with one hand, pulled out Liu Jing's long halberd, drew the sword with his right hand, and slashed towards Liu Jing's neck with a sword.
The timing of this sword was just right, Liu Jing lost his center of gravity, and he couldn't help but do it, and he couldn't do it even if he wanted to. Zhao Yun's sword was extremely fast and swiftly passed by Liu Jing's eyes. If it were a real slash, his head would have already flew up.
"I admit defeat"
Liu Jing was about to take the halberd and admit defeat. Although he admitted defeat, his face was filled with joy and excitement. He could actually fight Zhao Yun for nearly twenty rounds. Thinking about the fact that he could not even stop Zhao Yun's move, he could fight Zhao Yun fiercely.
Zhao Yun urged him to come forward immediately, hug him immediately, and whispered: "Very good."
"How is it compared to Yu Jin"
Zhao Yun smiled slightly, "You can tie Yu Jin when you meet him now, but your experience is not enough and you still need practical training. Don't fall into Jin's hands because of my words."
