Chapter 207: Things Before Christmas

For the special martial arts species of the United Nations in the Xiyi Islands, Sun Lin felt a real sense of solemnity after obtaining their information from the system. You must know that before the Dao, Sun Lin was making the worst plan for the Dick Empire, and when the Dick Empire would send elite expeditionary forces into the Western Continent, Sun Lin did not show such a situation.

Xiyi samurai, that is, the type of military similar to the Japanese samurai in the original world, at this time, under the development of many years, it has moved closer to the form of the end of the Warring States period in the original world, although its army has not evolved into a bird commander and a baked soldier (the earthen grenade grenade, a very strange product was available before the Warring States period in the original world, and what is even more bizarre is that the quality of the earthen grenade used in this product is extremely good, and it rarely explodes when it is aimed and thrown in the hand), that is, the technique of gunpowder has not been invented, No way, who is called the king, there is no country on the continent that can be higher than the four major inventions? As a result of this situation, the Nanban cannons installed on the Ataka ships did not appear, but the naval combat capabilities of the United Nations of the Xiyi Islands did not decrease, but increased, and by the way, even the spirit of bushido that they believed in was brought into full play among the people and the military.

Although the real ruler of the United Nations of the Xiyi Islands is the shogun, and there are countless families of great subordinates in the dark and bright places of the Thousand Islands, in general, the four categories of the United Nations of the Xiyi Islands are samurai archers, samurai guns, katanas and sickles, and each of these four categories is divided into light and samurai types, but one thing can be guaranteed, whether the two types of soldiers wear armor or not, they all belong to the light army.

This is also a helpless thing, the Xiyi Islands United Nations and Japan in the original world, are all iron-poor countries, although they have steelmaking technology, but their annual steel production tonnage is not even as good as the production tonnage of the Sunset Empire's just-made agricultural tools this year, coupled with the maritime trade blockade of the Atlantan Empire, the old overlord of the West Sea, the Xiyi Islands United Nations has no third method of steel source except for the robbery from the Atlantan Empire to obtain steel. This also leads to the fact that most of the United Nations in the Xiyi Islands are unarmored soldiers, all of them are wearing cloth clothes and holding steel weapons to fight in battle, even if there are soldiers wearing armor, the armor they wear is made of extremely light steel plates connected with animal tendons and tied to the body, this kind of steel armor that allows an ordinary Lanster hammer soldier to knock out a hole in it immediately knocks it out, which is useless except for giving the wearer a little comfort.

In the 4 categories, although the rest of the light cavalry except for the sickle class have light cavalry troops, Sun Lin knew that the charging power, riot ability, long-range ability, etc., even the support cavalry in Sun Lin's army could not beat the so-called samurai cavalry, and the horse breeds used by these cavalry were worse than the horse breeds used by the Hobila Ranger before, and after the whole country had gathered less than 3,000, they were directly ignored. Of course, Sun Lin also ignored a ninja class, and a flint trebuchet two troops, the former Sun Lin thought that this kind of army should be handed over to Thebes to deal with, as for the latter......... Throwing a stone is not even 100 kilograms, and the crosshair is worse than that of a light catapult, is it necessary for Sun Lin to pay attention?

Among the 4 major types of troops, Sun Lin first excluded the long-range ability of less than half of the Yoman longbowmen, although the power was strong when the crosshairs were infinite, and the sickle troops that could not even shout out by the Yoman longbowmen and giant shield crossbow soldiers, and secondly, the ability in all aspects was really good, and it already had the ability to compare with the Renaissance super long spear troops, but because of its discipline, it was not as good as the civilian troops, as long as the hammer man grabbed the gap and rushed into the formation, he could be killed by the bloody samurai spear troops, leaving only the most difficult katana troops behind.

To be honest, the katana troops, whether they are light or samurai, in the case of a group fight (heads-up does not explain, the main blow of this group of one-sword-flowing two-sword-flowing ones is certain death, and there are only two results if they hit: 1 He slashed the crack in the armor of the soldier who never set the sun and killed the soldier who never sets, 2 He didn't cut the slit blade was blocked by the shield or armor, so he was solved by the sword of the soldier who reacted to the sunset) completely unable to defeat a newly recruited heavy swordsman. But the problem is that they are not afraid of death at all, and they can use the Banzai charge, which is more terrifying than the warcry charge, and perhaps it does not have much effect on the soldiers on land against the sunset, but the problem is that this time it is a naval battle, and the naval battle is not the world of heavy infantry but light infantry.

It's good to say that the ship battle, although the improved scorpion crossbow can't penetrate the skin of the Ataka ship under normal circumstances, but the can bow can, and the improved scorpion crossbow can abuse the small early class ship in vain, and it is also a great threat to the thousand stone ships, etc., but if there is a battle to engage the ship, the ship that never sets without the help of the Vikings is destined to only be captured, and a lucky samurai Xiao Zao can capture a Hawk light battleship, if you think that the Sun Never Sets Empire will win with the assistance of Naga warriors or fish-man sword and shield warriors, then you are wrong, The latter was a sword or two for those samurai, while the former was ......... They can't climb the boat because of the structure of their lower limbs, etc., and the Naga's only task in the ship battle is to scuttle the bottom of the enemy's ship, or scuttle a ship that has been captured by the enemy.

"Trouble! Why does the King Continent have this type of country......... It would be great if that group of madmen became the sunset death squad, don't be afraid of morale collapse and other reasons, and if you open the Banzai Charge skill, even the heavy cavalry dare to rush head-on to decide! Let's put the affairs of the Northwest Continent first, anyway, although Mars's side has been going back and forth with the Dick Empire recently, there are 200,000 troops on the border ready to go, just hand it over to Bobby and Andelt, and now I'm going to conquer the Xiyi people! Sun Lin, who had thought for a long time, slapped the table and walked to the Christmas tree by the fireplace, which was decorated with colorful paper and various gold, silver and gemstone ornaments (O wicked rich man......... I made my Christmas wish for this year.

"Although I don't want to disrupt your wishes, but Your Majesty, I have to tell you that there are still more than 2 months before the launch of the Hawker A-class battleship, and no soldier who never sets the sun will cross the sea to the Western Continent in winter." Leo walked into the room and said lightly: "And ............. General Andert will not be in office for the past 1 year, he asked for a 1-year marriage after handing over his soldiers to the newly appointed Henry and Carter. ”

“………… Well, by the way, Leo, why don't you go home and rest here on Christmas Eve? ”

"There's bad news, just passing by the herald who is rushing home for Christmas."

"What's the bad news, is Mars starting to make a little move?"

"No, it's the Xiyi people, they robbed a trading fleet of our merchant guild, it happened about two weeks ago, and it is estimated that now Soli and the Xihai Fleet have officially carried the Xiyi people."
