Chapter 2047: It's just a prelude
Since the beginning of the war, the morale of the Tang army has been lower than day by day, not to mention some wins and losses, anyway, there is no good news.
No one thought that the morale of Datang rose for the first time because Han Yi was in charge.
After Wu Meiniang announced that Han Yi was in charge, the morale of the whole people was rising, and Chang'an was cheering.
Although Han Yi has not fought any battles, everyone just believes in him, and he turned the tide in the last crisis, everyone has a blind trust in him, and feels that Han Yi is coming, that is, victory is in sight.
The commanders of all walks of life also have no opinions, in the end, Han Yi is in charge of logistics, and all the food and weapons are dispatched by him, if you don't like him, maybe you won't have anything to eat.
In addition, he is only in command, and he does not necessarily let him command the war.
After Han Yi took command, he immediately set off and went to the front line, he did not mobilize troops from Guanzhong, because he believed that logistics was the key, if he increased the army, it would reduce the motivation of logistics, and at the same time increase the pressure on logistics, even if it was a student of the military academy, he was all arranged in logistics, this student was very valuable, Han Yi was not for them to fight, but for them to experience, but he did not go with these students, but ran with Yuan Hu to the junction of Shanzhou and Lanzhou.
Yuan Vulture was very excited, because he knew that Han Yi was finally going to take out his secret weapon, in fact, the three thousand soldiers and horses he had trained earlier had already been taken away by Han Yi.
"There are Gobi Deserts everywhere ahead, are we going the wrong way?"
Yuan Vulture saw the endless Gobi wilderness in front of him, and he was very worried, he was now afraid of Han Yi's death, this kid really eats people and doesn't spit out bones.
Han Yi smiled: "I can't go wrong on this road to victory." ”
The two of them walked for a long time, only to see a small group of people walking towards this side, led by a woman in black armor, really heroic.
"You're here!"
When the woman saw Han Yi, she smiled slightly, was suddenly stunned, and said, "Your hair?" ”
It was Chen Shuozhen, who looked even more heroic when she wore armor, which made Han Yi want to get a similar set of erotic uniforms.
Han Yi got off the horse, touched his little broken hair, showed off his coat and leather boots, and said, "Handsome or not?" ”
Chen Shuozhen just smiled and said nothing, if she pays attention to whether she is handsome or not, then she should choose Dugu Wuyue and Wang Xuandao, these beautiful men, instead of Han Yi.
But don't say that Han Yi's dress highlights his alternative temperament, if Wang Xuandao wears it like this, he will definitely not be as handsome as him, because Wang Xuandao does not have his temperament.
Therefore, Han Yi also thought that his appearance was delayed by this hairstyle, so he stepped forward, gently hugged her without any scruples, and said to Yuan Ying: "Her words, you may have heard the dog tooth talk about it, but you may not know her true identity ......." ”
Yuan Vultures waved his hand and said: "What is the real identity, isn't it your woman, I don't want to know this, I just want to quickly see your secret weapon." ”
He really doesn't care about how many women Han Yi has, because he himself is not a good bird.
But as soon as the words fell, I suddenly heard a loud bang in front of me.
Yuan Vultures were shocked and said, "What kind of sound is this?" ”
Han Yi said: "I think it should be thunder." ”
Chen Shuozhen immediately laughed when he heard this.
Yuan Vulture wanted to glare at Han Yi, but he didn't dare, so he got on the horse and ran away.
Han Yi smiled bitterly, and saw that Ono was also about to move, so he said, "You go too, I'm very safe here." ”
Ono nodded excitedly, and immediately rode his horse away.
Han Yicai didn't want to keep these light bulbs, so he gently took Chen Shuozhen's hand and said, "Are you tired?" ”
Chen Shuozhen glanced at him shyly and said, "I've just arrived, so I'm tired." ”
Han Yi nodded and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go over and have a look." ”
After walking for a while, they came to the front of a hollow, and saw Motovure and Ono riding on their horses, staring blankly at the bottom.
Han Yi came to their side and looked down, it turned out that this hollow was a very large training base, and this training base was another world for Yuan Vulture.
Bang bang!
There was a loud noise, and when I looked for prestige, I saw a row of copper pipes that shimmered with metallic light, and the mouth of the pipe was still emitting thick white smoke. In a moment, there was a loud noise in the distance, and the dust was billowing again, obscuring the sky and the sun.
Then I heard a crackling sound, and when I turned my eyes, I saw a column of soldiers, with strange weapons, stepping forward in unison, shooting the scarecrow inside.
"How?"
Han Yixiao asked.
Before Yuan Vulture came back to his senses, Ono said excitedly: "Brother Han, what kind of weapons are these?" ”
Han Yi smiled: "There is artillery over there, and there is a musket here." ”
"Artillery? Muskets? Yuan Vulture: "What is it?" ”
Han Yi said: "To put it simply..... It's a weapon, let's go down and have a look. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a strong wind blowing past him.
Han Yi rolled his eyes, and went below with Chen Shuozhen and Ono.
The arrival of the vulture directly led to the suspension of training, because this guy was eager to stick his head into the barrel of the gun, and he was deeply curious about all this.
I ran to the stone wall in front of me, saw the craters, and ran to the target area, holding the so-called musket, and couldn't wait to take it and shoot a few shots, only to feel full of pleasure, and feel that everything is like a dream, it is so unreal.
Han Yi was not as excited as him, he was inspecting the weapons with Chen Shuozhen and asking about the training.
In fact, the entire training plan was planned by Han Yi, he first asked Yuan Yu to train these people into well-trained warriors, brave and disciplined, and then arranged them into industrial production, let them learn all aspects of industrialization, and finally transferred them here to train them to use new weapons.
"Han Yi!"
Suddenly, I heard a shout from the vulture.
Han Yi looked back and saw Yuan Vulture holding a gun at him.
Before he could come back to his senses, Chen Shuozhen immediately raised his right hand.
I only heard a snap, and the gun in Yuan Vulture's hand immediately fell to the ground, and he hurriedly raised his hands and shouted: "I'm just joking, there is no ammunition in it." ”
Why is he scared like this, because several cannons behind Han Yi are all aimed at him, not to mention whether he can hit accurately or not, this looks quite terrifying.
Han Yi rolled his eyes, and waved at Chen Shuozhen again, and those cannons turned around.
Han Yi stepped forward and said with a smile: "Lord Yuanbao, how is it?" ”
"Awesome! This weapon is amazing! ”
Yuan Vulture excitedly picked up the gun again, played with it lovingly, and asked, "When did you get this?" ”
Han Yi frowned and thought for a moment, and said a little tiredly: "If you really talk about it, I think it must have been a long, long time ago." ”
Regarding gunpowder, Han Yi has actually taken it out a long time ago, and has been secretly improving, producing, and stockpiling. It's just that he has been hiding it, at most he used it as a smoke bomb, and he didn't take it out to give it to the court, because this is the bottom of his pressure box, and he doesn't need to take this thing to shoot Li Zhi's ass, after all, the Tang Army is so powerful, where can this thing be rare.
You must know that when this cannon didn't even have a wheel, the gunpowder raw materials he produced were already piled up, but no one knew what these things were used for?
And earlier than gunpowder, that is, iron ore, copper ore, coal mine, all the raw materials for the production of guns and artillery, he has stored enough enough, after that crisis, his wealth is in the skyrocket, if he doesn't engage in munitions, this money really doesn't know how to spend, and when the raw materials were first reserved, the cost was really not high at all, because the territory of Datang was too big, and the materials were abundant, he knew that those places had coal mines and iron mines, but he had to find them, he sent people to find them a long time ago, and then secretly excavated, How does this court know?
Later, he bought Tianzhu slaves, Tubo slaves, and Kunlun slaves to help him mine, and mined in large quantities.
Just waiting for a breakthrough in technology.
In fact, after the hydraulic boring machine came out, he was already developing the cannon barrel, and in the two years after the crisis ended, the smoothbore cannon made of bronze had been developed and was already in production, but it was not taken out, and now the first batch of steel cannons has also been produced, because in the past few years, steel smelting has also made a very significant breakthrough.
With the progress of lathe technology, spring and screw technology are becoming more and more mature, especially after the maturity of clock technology, flintlock pistols have naturally been developed, and flint is directly used for ignition.
Han Yi is very familiar with guns and loves them very much, after all, guns were used to save his life, but he only knew the structure and principle, and did not know the production process of these parts, and they had to be mass-produced, which required the wisdom of the world's people, he could not complete it alone, and the technological development he had inspired over the years was more or less related to the production process of these hot weapons.
Chen Shuozhen, who arrived first, had already passed through the excitement, and said worriedly: "But I see that your weapons are difficult to help our army win, although the artillery is powerful, but unfortunately the number is too small, and the musket is troublesome to load, it is not as convenient as a bow and arrow." ”
Yuan Vultures blinked and said, "Very few? How many? ”
Han Yi said with a smile: "Not counting the guns and artillery practiced here, at present, I only have a hundred guns and twenty cannons, which are already quietly being transported to the front line." ”
Yuan Vulture turned pale when he heard this, and said depressedly: "It's only so little, you can't satisfy my three thousand people, and Tubo is an army of hundreds of thousands, this is a fart." ”
Han Yi showed that weird smile again, and said, "These muskets and cannons are just one of my secret arsenals, and I didn't think about using this gun to destroy Tibet, it would be too laborious, but it was not my style." In fact, I had already hung a sharp sword on Qin Ling's chest a long time ago, and it depends on which day I am in a bad mood, so I will stick it in him, so that he will never be able to live beyond his life. ”
Chen Shuozhen lowered her eyebrows and groaned, she knew that Han Yi was not looking at her mood, but about interests, but she couldn't guess how Han Yi would squeeze benefits.
Yuan Vulture said excitedly: "I know, I know, your kid's conspiracy and tricks are all set, and people can't guard against it." I wonder what the 'sword' means? ”
"It's ......!" Han Yi said: "You'll know then!" ”
