The battle was over, the first test of the natives to concentrate a large number of forces, and finally ended in the victory of the Dinghai, Sun Yue did not have any smile on his face, calmly ordered, and began to tidy up the battlefield, especially the place where the natives died the most.

It has been proven that corpses can cause a plague, and it is certainly impossible to bury them on the battlefield, but it is okay to set them on fire.

The chosen area is relatively empty, pour a little gasoline and then ignite it, there is no disrespect, this is a must be done.

There are too few people in the Dinghai Navy, just such a small number of people, in case of another little plague, not to mention the full impact, affecting one or two hundred people, how will the Dinghai Navy defend it next.

Even now, the opponent's 14,000 people is a lot of pressure, if they adopt the correct method, with one or two thousand people, tentative attack, consume the physical strength and materials of the Dinghai Navy, the Dinghai Navy will also be very troublesome, similar to today, using all the troops, a defense, it is definitely impossible, must be divided into several waves.

The natives definitely don't know this, but Sun Yue knows that next, whether the other party attacks or not, he needs to arrange personnel rotation, and immediately, only a quarter of the personnel are responsible for cleaning up, and a quarter are on guard, and the rest are all resting.

The natives seemed to be stunned, even if the burning corpses and the black smoke that came out did not attract the natives to turn back, with the help of gasoline, where was cleaned up and completely blackened, but most of the corpses were still burned, and the rest did not affect the overall situation.

A sudden battle, just like that, is solved, this is a good thing for the Dinghai Navy, if the natives, just quit the scope of the settlement, return to the mountains and forests, it would be great, maybe for the militants, this is a kind of missing, but for Sun Yue, his task, is the Baozhu settlement.

As long as the settlement crisis is resolved, even if the reinforcements can't get a fight, once they arrive, they don't have to risk landing, let alone encounter a battle before they have a foothold, which is also a good thing.

In Sun Yue's opinion, as long as a normal person, in such a disparity in battle, retreating is the only choice, when the natives retreated like a tide, he thought it was such a result, but the report of the peripheral reconnaissance made his heart sink, and the natives did not leave.

In fact, the natives, who had suffered heavy losses and lost 3,000 people, did not leave, but gathered in the mountains and forests on one side and began to set up camp.

This location, almost 2 miles away from the settlement, has exceeded the maximum range of the settlement, and the natives are familiar with the surrounding environment, and in the woods, a large amount of timber has been cut down to build a stable barracks.

Apparently, this native. Their bloodiness is still very sufficient, and under the premise of being hit by such a big blow, not only did they not give up, but they also stabilized, established a huge camp, and wanted to continue to fight.

This is not a good thing for Sun Yue, even if he has suffered continuous losses, leaving more than 3,000 people under the city, and the total number of natives is still more than 11,000, even if they are divided into two parts, each part is about 5,000 people, it is not something he can deal with.

It's not good news, Sun Yue didn't worry too much, 14,000 people pressed over together, and it didn't threaten the building, and the natives who had lost all their sharpness could have much combat effectiveness.

As long as you don't fight, as long as you can hold this camp, it will be a victory, and at most when the reinforcements arrive, it will take a little effort to land, and it will not be so easy to land.

Time, for the fixed navy, is favorable, whether it is reinforcements, materials, and the strength of the settlement itself, these will take time to strengthen.

Two days have passed, and the aborigines' camp has also been built, and the huge camp has allowed the natives to have a fixed camp, in fact, this all-wooden camp, in Sun Yue's opinion, can be burned out by putting some gunpowder arrows at night, but the number of natives is too large, and the elite on his hand is not suitable for releasing it.

The investigators suddenly reported a piece of news, which made Sun Yue a little puzzled, and the natives came to reinforce them.

At first, he thought that it was because the natives were coming in and out, and there was a feeling of reinforcement, but after careful inquiry, especially the close investigation of the investigators, the number of natives seemed to have increased, from about 11,000 to 16,000, which not only made up for the previous damage, but also increased a lot.

If it is said that the increase is only a few hundred, in the face of such a huge number as 11,000, it may be wrong, but from 11,000 to 16,000, there are 5,000 more people, even if you take a cursory look, you can know, not to mention the telescope and elite reconnaissance force.

Why did the natives increase their troops, and they increased so much, for Sun Yue, the pressure did not exist, whether it was 11,000 or 16,000, before there were enough weapons to threaten the building, it was just a number, and the possibility of them coming over was almost zero.

But I can't figure out why, I shouldn't retreat, is it possible, the natives think, do they still have a chance?

With such a reinforcement of 5,000 people, they don't know that in the face of a strong defense, no matter how many troops there are, it will have no effect?

Let the investigators keep an eye on the natives, trying to figure out what the natives want to do, but the reinforcements gradually increased, from the initial 5,000 people, to 15,000, or even 19,000, and in the end, the number of natives increased to 30,000.

Although, the investigators said, these reinforcements are quite different from the previous indigenous soldiers, the age is either older or smaller, and the previous ones are basically men in the prime of life, and now, there are also some women.

Now, Sun Yue's pressure is great, 10,000, 20,000, this is just a number for him, but 30,000, and obviously big or small, and the appearance of women, what does it mean, this means general mobilization.

No matter how arrogant Sun Yue was, he was not arrogant enough to fight against the natives of the entire Ryukyu with his own strength.

The natives of the Ryukyus, conservatively estimated, should have hundreds of thousands, these 30,000 is only a small part, even if they are defeated, and then tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, what to do, is it difficult, really rely on war, slaughter the natives.

Also, what is it that makes the natives mobilize like this, the previous two wars, at best, killed 7,000 people, and let the natives press everything, do whatever it takes, do you want a general mobilization?

Sun Yue didn't know that at the beginning, the village owners who came over came to see how much combat power a small alien race could have, even if they defeated the previous 2,000 people.

In the eyes of the natives, there are thousands of aliens at best, because the number of exposed ones is very small, and no matter how much they press, they can also be suppressed.

I thought that the battle could be won easily, but it became a bitter battle, but after I came, I found that these alien races, their combat effectiveness is amazing.

Initial contact, they have not yet come into contact with the real ironclad warriors, that is the old village master said before, like the demon warriors, they are all wrapped in iron armor, no weapons of the natives, can not deal with the demons, did not appear, but a few survivors swear that they exist.

This is a treasure, on the island of Ryukyu, how have they ever seen such a weapon, there is a metal weapon, even if it is rusty and not sharp, it can be used as a treasure, let alone such a treasure armor.

Not to mention the previous rounds of attacks they encountered, because of the long-range relationship, the attacks they encountered were all attacks of longbows, and that kind of demon warriors did not appear, and at the same time they were puzzled, they made new discoveries, those arrows of longbows were actually the best divine iron.

Longbow, in order to ensure lethality, arrows are made of stainless steel, for the Dinghai, the cost of steel and iron, the difference is not very much, under the premise of mass production, the difference of one or two times, the overall performance of the improvement is very considerable.

The combat effectiveness of the longbow is the longbow itself, but the role of the arrow should not be underestimated, and the arrow made of stainless steel is much more lethal than the iron arrow.

The arrows of the longbow are larger than the average short bow, and the arrows are heavier.

Not to mention the previous battle, more than 2,000 people in the village retreated, and even the people managed to run back, of course, it was impossible to capture the arrow, they didn't even know that the arrow was made of stainless steel.

But this time, this wave of attacks alone shot at least 300 rounds of arrows, that is, 60,000, 3 pounds, almost 20,000 pounds of fine iron.

This is a huge number, 20,000 catties of refined iron, even in the Northern Song Dynasty before the Dinghai Navy did not popularize refined iron, according to the price of 1 pound of refined iron, it is as high as 20,000 catties.

Don't think that this price is very high, in the Northern Song Dynasty, where the iron capital is as high as 80 Wen a catty, ordinary steel can be several times that of fine iron, and few people can cut gold and jade, and most of them are meteorite iron that falls from the sky.

Even the Northern Song Dynasty is so expensive, not to mention the Ryukyus, which does not have many iron tools, these natives, may not have a good level of smelting, but they also simply know some iron tools, re-smelt some iron tools, and then form iron weapons, it is still possible, most of the weapons are through this method.

Now, just the arrows collected, there are so many of them, which makes them greedy.

The result of heavy casualties is unacceptable to any village, but tens of thousands of catties of fine iron, even if a knife is five or six catties, can make 2,000 knives.

This is a huge temptation for the Ryukyus, where iron weapons are scarce and can be called treasures, and the most important thing is that there is so much fine iron in these casual contacts and shots, and there will be more in such a tall building.

The kind of iron armor that was dozens of pounds, wrapped in steel all over the body, and those longbows that could shoot these arrows, these were all what they expected.

Wars abound because of a certain weapon, or a certain kind of treasure, and the natives may be ignorant in other places, but this is very clever.

If Sun Yue knew that in the end, this war would continue because of this, of course he would cry and laugh.

Just like the army of a certain country in later generations, a certain war launched for oil, won the regular army, but was dragged by the scattered forces, I don't know why, they are not afraid of death, and finally found out that their purpose is actually the copper in the bullet, because copper is very scarce, it is a treasure, and it is worth taking your life to fight.

Of course, in the era of the global village in the future, it is impossible for such a ridiculous thing to happen, but in this era, not to mention the Ryukyus, even in the remote places of the Northern Song Dynasty, fine iron is also a very expensive thing, and such a bow and arrow must be a treasure.

In the future, when the Dinghai Navy crisscrosses the four seas, similar things will not only appear, but also appear in large numbers, the reason why the Northern Song Dynasty is developed and has a large population is only one aspect, and the level of various science and technology has also reached a very high level.

In this way, the Northern Song Dynasty, in the face of the more terrible Dingjun, is unable to catch up with the tail, not to mention other nomads, in the northern tribes who have just entered the Iron Age, and even the northern tribes who have not even entered the Iron Age, the Dinghai has basically reached the smelting of the mid-18th century, and even some materials can meet the standards of World War II, which is really a huge gap.

Similar things about them being used as conventional weapons, and the enemy treating them as treasures, will not only not disappear, but will appear in large numbers.

Even if Zhao Xin knows, there is no other way except to cry and laugh, the establishment and operation of the ironworks, the price of steel has been greatly reduced, the price of iron has been reduced to a few pennies a catty, and the price of steel is not more than 10 yuan, it is not difficult to build a long arrow.

The most important thing is that the forging workshop supporting the steel mill can directly forge the molten steel through the grinding tool, which is far easier than processing the material after getting it.

The traditional forging method is to use iron to beat, through a certain refining, into the shape of an arrow, and in some cases to open the edge.

Forging is different, directly using abrasives, melted molten steel, instilled into the middle of a special mold, one-time molding, at most, grinding and grinding corners, to prevent some burrs and the like.

In Zhao Xin's view, it is impossible not to use these things because they are too expensive, that is to put the cart before the horse, and if they are really replaced with poor materials, not only will the power be reduced, maybe, but the price may be more expensive, and the gains will outweigh the losses.

Besides, weapon suppression has always been the direction of Zhao Xin's efforts, there are better weapons that are not used, but worse ones are used, that is not to reduce oneself to the same level as others, and to confront the opponent, then it is not worth the loss, it is pure stupidity.
