: Arrange the military and military

When Ding Du stood in the middle of the military tent and Liu Ping signaled everyone to be here, Ding Du said: "Everyone, this crossbow was transformed based on what you said. It is much more convenient than before when I put on the crossbow box."

Ding Du said here, picked up the crossbow and demonstrated it. The crossbow box was replaced between the two breaths. Ding Du was obviously very satisfied with his movement and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "There is also the problem of crossbow arrows. This time the crossbow arrows we made were made into Mitsubishi arrows according to the intention of the prince-consort. When the crossbow arrows were shot into the opponent's body, even if they did not hit the vital part, the opponent would continue to bleed and could not stop it."

He took out the arrow and showed it to everyone, and then he felt a little unhappy: "The disadvantage is that her range has been shortened by nearly thirty steps. We have not yet thought of a way to make such an arrow shoot farther. Please pay attention to this when using it."

As he said that, he picked up the bamboo tube again: "Come on, come with me."

Everyone followed Ding Du to the outside and saw that more than a dozen straw men had been tied on one side. Ding Du smiled confidently, lit a lead next to the bamboo tube, placed the bamboo tube on the ground, clamped it with two sticks, and faced the row of straw men from the side.

When the leads were burned out, a flame suddenly erupted from the front of the bamboo tube! The blazing flame immediately burned over a dozen grass men! When the flames were ejected, Ding Du began to count.

Everyone was shocked! If such a big fire was really used on the battlefield, the enemy would not be spared!

Ding Du used the two sticks to shake the bamboo tube a few times, and the flames kept spraying, and as Ding Du's hand swayed, a wall of fire was drawn out!

When the fire reached ten, the flames slowly decreased until the bamboo tube was burned!

After seeing this, Geng Tiande sighed: "Good, amazing!"

Such a weapon would not appear until more than a hundred years later in the Southern Song Dynasty. As a powerful weapon for the Song army to guard the Yangtze River, it was widely used by the navy.

There are many powerful weapons, in fact, they have had preliminary ideas and even formed in the Weapons of "The General of Wu Jing". However, they did not receive attention in the Northern Song Dynasty, so they developed slowly. The palm thunder appeared in the Battle of Tokyo, and the stone cannon was made by the Jurchens based on the General of Wu Jing. The *** weapon appeared in the Southern Song Dynasty.

As for the world's first gun, it is also recorded in Wu Jing Zong. Although I don't know who invented it, some hunters from the Northern Song Dynasty had already used this most primitive, bamboo tube-like gun barrel-made guns to hunt, and it was limited to hunting.

Now Chen Yuan provides Ding Du and Zeng Gongliang with a steady stream of funds, so that Zeng Gongliang can focus on research without worrying about money. The most important thing is that the victory of the war stimulates the progress of research, so many things, especially some things that Chen Yuan pointed out that they can try, were released in advance.

The last trencher was naturally a stone cannon. Zeng Gongliang made it smaller and easier to carry, and it could be used to fire thunder in the palm of his hand!

This time, the soldiers' reaction to the thunder in their palms was two points. One was that the leads were uncontrollable, and the other was that they were too heavy and it was very laborious to hold them in one hand.

Zeng Gongliang couldn't find a solution to the weight of palm thunder, and the current technology has not yet reached the point where he can make grenades. They simply made a small trencher to fire palm thunder, which was quite effective.

I tried all three things and everyone was very excited to see them. With these, they will definitely achieve more brilliant results this time!

Ding Du said: "You can all be equipped with bows and crossbows, and you will have a lot more thunder in your palm than last time. It's just this guy,"

He kicked the burnt bamboo tube on the ground with his feet: "We just made this guy. You can take some of it first, one hundred barrels. After using it, record the situation and we will improve it before equip it with it."

Liu Ping nodded: "Thank you, Lord Ding. If we can't fight this battle well, don't say anything else, even you Lord Ding will be sorry!"

Ding Du smiled: "General Liu doesn't need to say that. You can say good things about us, which is the greatest encouragement to us. There are still things to show you. I have also told you how to operate it just now. I'll leave. Go back and send some people to move things."

Weapons can improve combat effectiveness, as long as the person holding the weapon has sufficient combat ability, there is no doubt about this.

Chen Yuan spent a lot of money on the investment in the new military equipment. Fortunately, Renzong no longer allowed him to support himself independently, and his life was much better.

Don’t underestimate these equipment. The armor, the clothes and helmets, are more than 30 times that of the Song army soldiers before. This is the cheapest one, including knives, hooks, sickles, shields, bows and crossbows. This set costs more than 200 sprigs, which is equivalent to 30 taels of silver. It is not considered as returning large-scale equipment such as chariots, crossbows, stone cannons, etc.

Chen Yuan invested a total of 3.7 million jin for these 10,000 people! Compared with the previous Song army equipment, this was definitely an astronomical figure. Although Renzong gave part of it, the big gap was made up by the merchants donated that day.

Renzong didn't dare to take it out all, it was not that he didn't have them, but that if he took it out all, those censors would not let him go. This is definitely a very good reason to stop a strong army. Ten thousand people would cost more than 200,000 people. What should I say more than 100,000 people? How much does it cost to 200,000 people? This is just equipment, and there hasn't been a war yet.

How Chen Yuan spent the money, he told Renzong clearly. After hearing this, Renzong silently calculated the calculations in his heart, and then looked at Chen Yuan: "Shimei, according to your fighting style, bring supplies to support Li Shibin and Jiao Siluo. Then, it will take at least 20 million to fight this battle."

Chen Yuan nodded: "Yes, but I think it would be worth it if 20 million yuan can solve the Dangxiang problem and prevent Dangxiang from becoming a mess."

Renzong hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "I finally understand why Emperor Wu of Han pacified the Huns, so he spent tens of billions of dollars to save money in one go."

Chen Yuan immediately followed, "But even though some people later said that he was powerful and powerful, no king can compare with the achievements of Emperor Wu of Han. Long live, if you want to do big things, you can't care about small money! As long as you pacify Dangxiang and conquer the Liao Kingdom, you will definitely have a share of the position of the Emperor of Eternal Eternal!"

Renzong slowly sat down: "I don't want to do it? But we are so short of food now. I always feel that if something goes wrong, it will be difficult to deal with!"

Chen Yuan whispered: "So, we must use the front-line victory to continuously bring good news to people."

Renzong waved his hand: "I know what you mean, don't worry, I've decided on this battle! In a year and a half, you will pacify the Dangxiang and leave the problem here to me to solve. In a year and a half, you will come back to help me with the Liao Kingdom."

Chen Yuan immediately said: "I obey the order!"

Chen Yuan thought for a while and asked in a low voice: "Long live, what's wrong with that?"

Renzong took a deep breath: "I have asked Wen Yanbo to go to the *** and discuss the issue of establishing diplomatic relations with them. I will give it to him for the annual monies."

The Song Dynasty was rich, how rich was? When I talked about the annual monies with the Liao Kingdom, Fu Bi went to talk. When I came back, Zhenzong asked him how much money he promised to give to the Liao Kingdom?

Fu Bi stretched out his two fingers, and Song Zhenzong was stunned for a moment: "Oh, two million, it's a little more, but it's enough to quit."

Later Fu Bi smiled: "They want 200,000, but I only give 100,000."

Zhenzong immediately laughed. One hundred thousand or two hundred thousand, in the eyes of the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, it was a small number, the number of beggars.

Renzong is still the case now, but Renzong always feels that whether it is two million or twenty thousand, it is not a matter of money, but a matter of face.

Now that he has a hard back, he naturally has to save face.

Now, he can only throw away his face in front of the people, because the Song Dynasty really needs food! Renzong smiled: "What Wen Yanbo and I said, "I told the King of *** how many years we can give them, and I will calculate how much grain they sell us. If we sell us 10,000 stones of grain, I will give him 1,000 jin a year. Shimei, what do you think of this plan?"

Chen Yuan looked at Renzong in surprise: "Long live, if the king *** sold all the food to you and collected tens of millions of stones, wouldn't he have to give him more than one million guan a year?"

Renzong glared at him: "I will only give it to you next year, or another year later. Just think it's thanking him for helping me overcome this difficulty. If he still wants it, hum."

Chen Yuan suddenly realized that Renzong had really changed, which was completely different from when he first met him. He used to be just a kind elder, and he was a little cowardly and hesitant.

But now, Renzong is more like an emperor and a overlord who ruled the world!

His kindness will no longer be abused on the enemy.

"I understand, I promise you that the next year, *** will not talk to us about food!"

Renzong asked again: "Shimei, how about Li Wei in the military camp?"

This really stopped Chen Yuan from asking, and Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment: "This, this, I am guilty. I have never seen him after I sent him to the military camp."

Renzong smiled and said, "Let's do this, the battle is about to go out. I also want to go see the soldiers. You can arrange it. Let's go to the military camp together tomorrow."

Chen Yuan knew that Li Shibin had been defeated in Dangxiang, and the newly collected 50,000 soldiers were beaten by Li Yuanhao and Ye Li Yuqi, and only more than 20,000 were left. He escaped in a panic.

Jiao Siluo was even more unbearable. He originally wanted to see Li Shibin fight and go up to get the cheaper ones. However, he didn't expect that Li Yuanhao would take him as the first target of attack and rush over with 20,000 party Xiang people like wind, killing most of the 30,000 people under Jiao Siluo.

It would definitely not work just by relying on them, Chen Yuan had known this for a long time.
