Chapter 343

Ning chaner glanced at Chen Hai and said lazily to le Yi, "what can we get? The pictures of township Tianji chariot and Fengyan airship are not top secret in Tianji school palace. I got several sets back, but can Ganquan mountain be built at this time?"

When it comes to strength, it will eventually involve the control of resources.

In the past few years, the black Yan army controlled the northern part of Heyang County and the whole territory of Yanmen county. After destroying the old bureaucratic and clan system of Fuxian County, it also sent a large number of officials to restore the local government system of Fuxian county and sort out civil affairs, farming, post roads, water conservancy and waste storage. Although it also achieved some results, the previous war chaos, The destruction of the production system in these places is so serious that it can't be slowed down in three to five years.

In the heyday of the black Yan army, there were as many as three million troops and horses. It was necessary to extract unimaginable huge resources from Yanmen, Heyang and other counties to maintain such huge armaments.

At first, it was impossible for the patriarchal clan of Yanmen, Heyang and other counties to move away after hundreds of years of accumulation. There were still some old roots that could be excavated, but they supported for two years. After the old roots were quickly exhausted, the new production system had not been restored. As the core general of the black Yan army, Le Yi felt that this situation could not be sustained at that time.

Even more than two years ago, they won many victories against the Huben army in the south of Heyang, but they can't reverse this trend.

This situation did not expose major problems for the time being, but after half a year, a large-scale famine broke out again in Yanmen County, so that the supply of food and grass to the black Yan army had to be reduced.

Naturally, there were outstanding people of the eight nationalities in Jingjun who quickly noticed the reversal of the situation. It was after that that that the Xiyuan army really killed out of the Xiongguan pass at the turn of Yanji; Zhu Luqin and Wang Jun also changed their previous state of making soy sauce and became active in looking for fighters in Heyang, Lichuan and other places.

Although there was no large-scale war after that, the decline of the black Yan army was inevitably exposed.

In terms of war machinery manufacturing, no large-scale gold placer has been found in Yanmen and Heyang. In order to obtain a large amount of gold and iron, we can only adopt the traditional infiltration method to infiltrate rare gold and iron such as xuantai refined iron and black placer gold into precision forged iron to obtain different grades of gold and iron.

Before the war, the Zong valve in Yanmen, Heyang, Lichuan and other counties could obtain 5.6 million kg of quenched iron by infiltration every year. However, after the Heiyan army took over these areas, even if it gave priority to the restoration of metallurgy and casting, the annual output of quenched iron only recovered to about 300000 kg.

This is only one percent of juquanling's annual output.

In the past, the black Yan army could obtain millions of Jin of quenched gold and iron from Liquan every year through various channels, but at this time, the Xiyuan army, the eight ethnic groups in Jingjun and the nine world valves all strengthened the blockade on the north foot of the east of Qintong, and there was not enough input of quenched gold and iron. Ning chaner brought back more and more powerful battle equipment maps, which would not help the black Yan army in the current crisis.

A township level Tianji chariot needs 70000 kg of Grade 8 quenched gold and iron, that is, the black Yan army does nothing. With the existing output of quenched gold and iron, it can only build two township level Tianji chariots every year.

At this time, Le Yi trial produced the Scorpio chariot in Songxi valley. Because of the lack of enough quenched iron, he can only use ordinary precision forged iron instead. However, the strength difference of precision forged iron is too much. Chen Hai doubts whether such a large scorpion tail will be directly broken by the bumpy terrain before it really enters the battlefield.

Yue Yi built Scorpio chariots. He should find something to do for himself after he was relieved of his military power. He did experiments. He didn't expect to have the resources to build Scorpio chariots that could really go to the battlefield.

"Is there an improved picture of Tianji crossbow in Tianji school palace?" Le Yi asked.

Not to mention the township level Tianji chariot, even the pavilion level light Tianji chariot was a luxury for the black Yan army at this time. At present, only a few resources and craftsmen can be concentrated to make more Tianji crossbows; Yue Yi is also more concerned about whether there is an improved version of the Tianji crossbow.

Ning chaner stalls. She wants to hold Chen Hai's neck more than Le Yi and ask if there will be a more powerful Tianji war crossbow in the future.

Chen Hai stood aside, hugged his chest and said, "even if Tianji school palace can build a stronger Tianji war crossbow, it must be the priority for the Xiyuan army to obtain equipment. Elder martial brother Le is still lucky?"

What's more, he is not interested in asking "ugly slave" for a long time. After all, no one knows how many eyes he has buried in the interior of the imperial family.

At the same time, he also knew that it was unrealistic for him to continue to count on the Tianji learning palace to provide unwarranted assistance to the black Yan army. The Tianji learning palace could really create a more powerful Tianji war crossbow, and the black Yan army could not be the first to get it. Thinking of this, he felt that the future of the black Yan army was bleak.

The arrow array box is similar to a magnetic launcher. At this time, Chen Hai is trying to deduce a more powerful prohibition of the magnetic arrow array. In addition, he also found a higher-level Dao Zhuan on the snake scale book for reference. However, the real difficulty in upgrading the Tianji war crossbow is not only to throw a larger quenched gold crossbow more than ten miles or even tens of miles away, At the same time, we should also ensure that the quenched golden arrow thrown has enough lethality.

Otherwise, throwing a gold arrow several meters long and like a giant spear to more than ten miles will not make much sense except to attack a fixed large target.

For such a long space, not to mention the xuanxiu and Wuxiu with cultivation, even ordinary elite soldiers can have plenty of time to avoid when watching the quenched golden arrow throw from afar.

The super long-range heavy artillery on earth has a killing radius.

On earth, after the shell contacts the target, the charge filling warhead explodes and uses broken shrapnel for surface killing. In Jinyan States, how does he achieve this?

In order to truly upgrade the Tianji war crossbow, the key point is to create a quenched gold arrow with a certain killing radius that can impact and sputter in all directions after contacting the target.

In this way, each such quenched gold arrow is like a thousand blade sword amulet. It can tear apart the enemy's defense array and throw it directly into the enemy array or enemy cities. It can really be called a powerful weapon in the battlefield.

At this moment, an old soldier came and said that the yellow meal was ready and invited them to eat in the house.

Chen Hai, Ning chaner and Le Yi are having a banquet in a hut; The drug slaves and more than ten old pawns and craftsmen under Le Yi also form three tables in the house on the east side.

During the dinner, Ning chaner talked with Le Yi about her experiences in Lequan and some newly developed war weapons of Tianji school palace. When Le Yi heard that Tianji school palace was building a wind flame airship, her eyes were shining, but her face was more worried,

Chen Hai doesn't need to ask. He thinks that Le Yi should also soberly realize that there is no way to fight this war.

At this time, it was logistics supply that restricted the Xiyuan army.

In the east of Heyang County, there are as many as 15.6 million people in the Xiyuan army, the 11th Road King's army and many auxiliary soldiers and civilian men. Food and grass supplies have to be transported from northern Beijing, a long journey of four or five thousand miles.

Even if the Taiwei mansion used tens of thousands of mechanism puppet animals and a large number of cattle, horses and camels to transport grain and grass materials, it was still very difficult.

Therefore, the Xiyuan army and the 11th Road Qinwang army are mainly encircling Ganquan mountain, but they are not eager to launch a large-scale attack. This is mainly worried that once there is a problem in the supply of food and grass and the attack is frustrated, they will fall into a dilemma.

Chen Hai did not meet with Yingwang Yingshu directly, but he had to admit that Yingwang Yingshu or behind him was a division level strategist planning and controlling the progress of the whole war. In other words, since he already has a comparative advantage, he naturally does not need to use dangerous strategies, use troops openly, push forward layer by layer and squeeze the living space of the black Yan army.

This is also the most correct and difficult tactic to crack.

When the Fengyan airship is incorporated into the Xiyuan army, the Xiyuan army will solve the bottleneck of logistics supply, and the tactical choice will become more flexible. At that time, the black Yan army will become more uncomfortable in Heyang County.

A wind flame airship, with a load of 200000 kg, seems to be only equivalent to the load of 100 mechanism puppet animals. However, the wind flame airship travels one or two thousand miles a day and is not hindered by the Guanshan river. Its propulsion speed is 20 or 30 times that of mechanism puppet animals, and its reuse rate is much higher than that of mechanism wooden cattle.

Once the Xiyuan army has more than four or five wind flame airships, the bottleneck of logistics supply will be completely broken through.

Although Tianji school palace will not build Fengyan airship for the Xiyuan army in the short term, the Taiwei house and the general supervisor seem not to realize the significance of Fengyan airship for the time being and have not sent someone to Tianji school palace to negotiate the purchase of drawings, Chen Hai believes that as long as Tianji school Palace builds the first Fengyan airship, Yingwang Yingshu and a group of his generals and ministers, as long as they are not fools, They will immediately realize the importance of the wind flame airship, and will directly purchase the scroll from the Tianji school palace and arrange the Mojia division or the Arsenal division to make it.

Of course, before the Mexican armour company makes enough wind flame airships, the Xiyuan army will be more likely to choose the right to stand still and do not rush to find the main force of the black Yan army for the final decisive battle, so as to win the time window for the black Yan army to withdraw north.

"If you go to Lequan at this time, is Chen Hai more ambitious?" after a long silence, Leyi suddenly asked Ning chaner.

Ning chaner glanced at Chen Hai and said equivocally to Yue Yi, "maybe, but it may not be revealed so early?"

"He has set up his own house in Liquan now, and who can expect this?" Yue Yi still believes that Chen Hai has greater ambition and said.

Ning chaner said quietly, "how can you persuade those old guys to let you lead people to go to Tianji school?"

"The situation is so that a strong army must go out of qintongguan in the West and threaten Yanjing in order to solve the siege of Heyang!" said Le Yi resolutely.

"Chen Hai, he's sitting in front of you. Ask him if he's happy to do this?" Ning chaner's eyes looked over and directly exposed Chen Hai's identity

Chen Hai secretly hated his headache. Unexpectedly, he fell into the pit dug by Ning chaner.
