Chapter 259 Liu Meng's Insights

"Because I want to increase the destructive power of the shield and axe troops, and create a violent force that can cut through the defense line of the opponent's shield-holding troops and tear apart the entire formation of the opponent's entire formation!"

Hearing this, Liu Meng subconsciously thought of Luo Yong. On the battlefield, he was like a killing machine. With the double-edged battle axe in his hand, he slashed down with the axe, and directly slashed with the man and the shield. No matter where you kill it, it's simply not violent. Just one is scary enough. If there is a whole team, it will undoubtedly be a rather terrifying ace force!

But not everyone can be so violent. As an experienced veteran, Liu Meng clearly saw through the key issues at a glance, "But if you do this, the lengthened battle axe will require soldiers It will be improved. After that, it will be difficult for the shield and axe troops to recruit suitable candidates. The number of people will be greatly reduced. At the same time, on the battlefield, whether it is a confrontation between two armies or a siege battle, a large number of shield and axe soldiers are required. Shield advance, this is the main force, the number is too small, it is difficult to pose a threat to the enemy."

Luo Ji's eyes lit up when he heard Liu Meng's analysis. It's not that he didn't consider this issue, but that he didn't expect Liu Meng to be able to see so thoroughly. Thinking about it carefully, Liu Meng is also brave and commanding double four stars. The first-class general of the upper limit, and more importantly, he is an experienced veteran!

"Liu Meng, this is actually the case. I want to change the main force responsible for advancing on the battlefield to other arms, while the original main advancing force, the shield and axe troops, is changed to about 500 people. , specially responsible for the elite troops of the enemy's shield-wielding troops!"

"It's okay to do this." Liu Meng's expression was subtle, "But, what do you mean by other arms?"

"Follow me!" Luo Ji was obviously intrigued at this time, he called Liu Meng directly, and walked towards the Ordnance Forging Department.

Before the two of them entered, just close to the area where the Ordnance Forging Department was located, they could clearly feel the temperature rise. The moment they entered the interior, the temperature was like a super melting pot, and it felt like even the air became thin.

Resisting the temperature, Luo Ji walked directly to the weapon rack on the side, then took one of the weapons that had just been forged in his hand, and gestured, "Liu Meng, what do you think of this?"

"Is this? Bronze sword?" Taking the weapon that Luo Ji handed over, Liu Meng's expression changed slightly at the moment he started it. As a general's instinct, he probably figured it out as soon as he got started. Taking the role of the weapon, "Boss, can you let the end general try this weapon?"

"Just try." As he spoke, Luo Ji pointed to the wooden stake beside him.

With Luo Ji's permission, Liu Meng stepped forward quickly, but he didn't see any fancy movements. He waved the weapon in his hand, and with an angry shout, he directly chopped at the stake in front of him.

The thick wooden stake snapped, and then Liu Meng looked down at the weapon in his hand. The expression on his face was already revealing his love for this weapon, and Luo Ji's voice was also here. time to ring...

"This new weapon in your hand is called a bronze sword! Do you like it? I plan to create a sword and shield troop, use it to replace the shield and axe troop and become the main advancing force on the battlefield!"

"Is it a bronze sword?" Touching the cold blade, Liu Meng's face was full of excitement, "The end will like it very much!"

Hearing Liu Meng's straightforward answer, Luo Ji also laughed, and then suddenly said, "The sword and shield troops will be handed over to you."

Hearing this, Liu Meng didn't react for a while, his expression was obviously stunned, but after waiting for him to react, the whole person was dumbfounded.

"That's right." Luo Ji smiled and nodded, "What? Feeling the burden is too heavy?"

After all, it is a brand-new unit and a brand-new weapon. To command such an unfamiliar army, it must be a lie to say that he is not worried at all, but the self-esteem of being a first-class general makes Liu Meng not allow himself to retreat at this moment. , I saw him suddenly puffing out his chest, "The last will never live up to the leader's expectations!"

"Okay, not bad." Luo Ji nodded with satisfaction. As a general of an army, the soldiers under his command were not confident, that's ok! But if even the generals who command this army are not confident, then it is really over!

While speaking, Luo Ji beckoned, and called Liu Shu, the head of the Ordnance Department, who also shaved his head, "Liu Shu, how is the forging progress of the bronze sword?"

It has been a while since he ordered this matter. In order to save materials and increase the success rate and forging efficiency, Luo Ji also specially bought a silver-level 'bronze sword' forging blueprint for the Ordnance Forging Department to use.

Facts have proved that the efficiency is quite good, but because the process is basically completed in batches, it is difficult to clearly say how many war knives they can forge a day.

Because this Ordnance Forging Department was built under the thinking of a modern man like Luo Ji. There are so many soldiers in the civilization waiting for them to forge weapons. What he pursues is high efficiency. In simple terms, this is equivalent to a In the assembly line factory specializing in forging weapons and equipment, there is a group of people responsible for quenching bronze, a group of people responsible for forging blanks, another group of people responsible for quenching, and finally a group of people responsible for grinding weapons and sharpening them.

Therefore, when reporting, they will only say how many forged in half a month, or how many forged in a month. At present, there are 20 craftsmen in the Ordnance Forging Department who are responsible for forging bronze war knives.

And Liu Shu told him that the number was 437. Luo Ji was quite satisfied with the efficiency. After their practice made perfect, the forging efficiency and success rate should be mentioned again.

By the way, it is worth mentioning that there are people who think that it takes several months, or even several years, to forge a sword or other weapon in ancient times.

There is such a thing. The most famous one is called Ou Yezi. In order to forge a sword, people start by looking for a location. After confirming the location, they build a forging furnace there, and then find the iron mother and suitable mountain spring water. A total of It took three years to forge a sword, let's not say whether there is any exaggeration in it, but the name of the sword is 'Zhan Lu'.

And other swords that took a lot of time to forge include 'Long Yuan', 'Tai A', 'Juque', 'Chun Jun', 'Gang Jiang Mo Xie' and so on...

Throughout the entire history of the Celestial Dynasty, for five thousand years, there was no such thing as a prodigal that equipped the tens of thousands of troops under his command with such equipment.

To put it bluntly, these famous swords and swords pursue the ultimate upper limit, and the swords used in the army, Luo Ji only pursues the qualified line, otherwise you think that the movement of the cold weapon era will be tens of thousands of troops, or even hundreds of thousands of troops. How did the weaponry come from?
