Become a feudal king from today

The sunset in hot summer is always strong and exaggerated, seeming to burn through the entire sky.

Zhao Xu was still looking at the map in his study, thinking about Beidi's possible attack route.

At this time, Xu Hark left and returned, bringing Chai Wu with him.

"You want to go to Goryeo to inquire about information in person?" Zhao Xu looked surprised after hearing what Xu Hark said.

Chai Wu nodded firmly and told King Yan his thoughts again.

If he was just an ordinary member of the Fourth Academy, there would be no need to come over and trouble King Yan.

But he is the deputy director of the Fourth Academy, so such a radical action must be approved by King Yan.

Zhao Xu's eyes stayed on Chai Wu for a while.

In the fourth courtyard, Tsui Hark and Chai Wu are naturally very capable.

But it is still very dangerous to travel to Goryeo in this way, and Chai Wu may even never return.

It’s just that there seems to be no other better way at the moment. Even if we can find some clues from Goryeo, it would be good.

Otherwise, if an accident occurs, his business in Yanzhou will be destroyed overnight.

In contrast, he had to take a risk.

"Feng'er, go get a jar of wine." Zhao Xu said.

Tsui Hark and Chai Wu looked at each other. Chai Wu smiled cheerfully, cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Your Highness!"

After a while, Feng'er brought in a plate with a pot of wine and three wine glasses.

Zhao Xu personally filled the three wine glasses, held them up and said to Chai Wu: "Our country is in danger and we need strong men. Chai Wu, I am waiting for you to come back, and I will personally take care of you when the time comes."

"This is the wine to wash away the dust, I will definitely drink it." Chai Wu drank the wine in one gulp.

Xu Hark and Zhao Xu immediately drank it at the same time.

Then Chai Wu poured himself another glass of wine, drank it again, and said: "If your highness has shown any kindness to Chai Wu, he will not be able to repay it even if he sacrifices his life. Time is running out. I will go to Liao County now."

Zhao Xu patted Chai Wu on the shoulder, while Xu Ke's eyes were slightly red.

With a heavy fist, Chai Wu exited the study and strode away.

Zhao Xu came to the door of the study and watched Chai Wu leave.

At this time, he said to Xu Hark: "Chai Wu went to Goryeo, but Xiliang, Beidi, and the movements of the powerful clans must also be closely watched, and there is no room for loss. This battle will determine the offensive and defensive relationship between Dasong and Beidi." potential.”

Tsui Hark's face was solemn, "I am determined to spy on information at all costs."

After instructing this matter, Tsui Hark left.

The next day.

Zhao Xu got up early and went straight to Beida Camp.

The war is approaching day by day, and the most important thing is the training of the royal family's troops.

Now, the soldiers of the royal family are basically equipped with bayonets.

Completes the final link of flintlock tactics.

In this way, the line tactics of flintlock tactics and bayonet hand-to-hand combat were complete.

This is of great significance to the royal family's awareness, because from now on, the royal family's army can even come into contact with the contemporary European armies of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.

And this is where his confidence lies.

In addition, the Bingzhan Division also gathered five hundred carpenters to make chariots.

Generally speaking, five carpenters can build a chariot in three days, and a thousand chariots in a month.

Even if they need to be covered with iron sheets, there are still six to seven hundred vehicles a month.

At that moment, according to what Wang Ying said, 500 vehicles had been delivered to the royal army.

Before the war, there were basically no problems with 3,000 vehicles.

"Kill! Kill! Kill..."

As soon as he entered the camp, Zhao Xu heard the chants of the soldiers on the school field.

After Chang Wei received the news, he immediately came over and accompanied Zhao Xu to inspect the camp.

Arriving at the school grounds, Zhao Xu looked at the soldiers.

At this moment, the soldiers all held flintlock rifles in their hands, and the ends of the flintlock rifles were equipped with bayonets.

There was a coldness shining in the early morning sun.

The soldiers were practicing assassination moves following the general's slogans.

"Your Highness, looking at it this way, it looks much more murderous than holding a stick, right?" Chang Wei pointed at the soldiers, with pride in his eyes that could not be concealed.

After this period of time, after the bayonets were attached to the guns, he specially put on two soldiers in plate armor, one held a knife, and the other held a flintlock with a bayonet to fight.

He found that in a fight between two soldiers with similar combat capabilities, the soldier holding a bayonet-mounted flintlock had an advantage.

After all, every inch is stronger.

Then he asked the soldiers to fight with the fusiliers with spears, but the fusiliers won.

Because although the fusiliers' weapons are shorter than spears, they are very flexible and can always deflect the spears. This is the defense that the soldiers practice.

Of course, these are all situations of direct hand-to-hand combat.

If they really met on the battlefield, the fusiliers would not give them a chance to fight hand-to-hand.

"It is indeed murderous." Zhao Xu laughed.

I have to say that visiting such a scene can't help but make people feel excited, just like visiting a military parade.

Then Zhao Xu Changwei took a bayonet from his waist.

The bayonet also has a long history of development.

In the beginning, the bayonet on the flintlock gun was a sleeve bayonet.

Even if the bayonet is put on the barrel of the gun, the bayonet looks like a barb, which really echoes the name of the bayonet.

However, improvements were made based on experience on the battlefield, and the appearance of the bayonet also changed accordingly. Bayonets that were more effective in killing enemies appeared, such as Mitsubishi bayonets, knife-type bayonets, etc.

But no matter what kind of bayonet it is, there is one more thing on it, a blood groove.

To put it simply, it is a design that accelerates the bleeding of enemies.

Zhao Xu was naturally not conservative in the design of the bayonet. From the original sleeve bayonet, there was no need for it.

Instead, a Mitsubishi bayonet was used directly.

The end of this bayonet also has a ring buckle that can be fixed on a flintlock gun.

Because of the handle, it is a 50-centimeter-long short knife when pulled out.

If you are suddenly attacked by the enemy and there is no time to put on the bayonet, you can directly fight the enemy with the bayonet.

This three-point design has been tested on the battlefield and is very deadly. It is known as the most poisonous bayonet.

This bayonet has three raised sides. After piercing the human body, it can quickly introduce air into the blood vessels through the blood groove to form air emboli in a very short time, blocking the blood vessels leading to the brain and causing circulatory disorders in the brain, thereby causing brain tissue hypoxia and rapid death.

In simple terms, if the sword pierces the enemy's body, the enemy can still wail for a while and maintain weak combat effectiveness.

Being stabbed by this bayonet will die faster.

And because of the conical design, the three-point thorn is better at piercing.

It can easily pierce two human bodies, and this shape also has a good armor-breaking effect on armor.

In ancient times, there was a weapon called an armor-breaking cone, which was this cone shape.

"This time, the royal army is armed to the teeth." Zhao Xu said to Chang Wei.

Zhao Xu has already told Chang Wei about the effectiveness of the three-point thorn.

When he first saw this strange bayonet, he came to him.

So he asked Chang Wei to take this bayonet and an ordinary knife to the butcher for testing.

After that, Chang Wei never questioned this bayonet again, and hung one on his waist like a treasure.

"Yes, I'm waiting for this battle to show the Northern Di people some color." Chang Wei was eager to fight.

During this period, the Black Iron Tribe has been provoking.

Although they killed and injured many people, they still did not stop.

He gradually lost patience with the Northern Di's long-term harassment of Yanzhou.

This time, he must have a good fight with the Northern Di people.
