The Legend of Wu Dalang of Water Margin

Chapter 220: Rejection stakes

Views:

"Your Majesty, the minister has a way, but for me, the Northern Expedition of Song Dynasty will increase the winning rate by 20%!"

When this remark came out, everyone was shocked!

Don't say it was Song Huizong, even Ma Zhi, who had always maintained an attitude of "hanging up on top of himself", couldn't help taking a breath.

In the war between the two countries, there has never been an absolute certainty of victory, because there are too many possible changes. As long as they are not too arrogant, the outcome is mostly 50-50.

Moreover, the sixteen states of Yanyun in the north of the Song Dynasty have been occupied by the Liao State for a long time. If the Liao State is really so good, it would be time for the Song Dynasty to regain the lost ground. The fact is that For so many years, the sixteen states of Yanyun have been under the firm control of the Liao State. It can be seen that the combat power of the Liao State is still very fierce.

But now, Wuhan University actually said that he has a way to increase Daliao's winning rate by 20%!

What does 20% win rate mean? With an extra 20% winning rate, the alliance with the Kingdom of Jin can be directly abandoned, and Song Huizong can completely ignore it and start the war directly!

Song Huizong was overjoyed, but his face sank leisurely, "Wu Zhi, do you know what you are talking about? The war between the two countries is not trivial. You can't talk about it. If you can really increase my victory rate by 20%, I granted your request, what's the problem?"

Wu Da's eyes lit up, "You have no joking?"

Song Huizong wanted to kick Wuhan University to death, and said viciously: "You have no jokes! Come on!"

Wu Dachang heaved a sigh of relief, and asked, "Your Majesty knows, what kind of arms is the most troublesome for Song Dynasty in the Liao Kingdom?"

There is no need to say more about this. Idiots know that they are naturally cavalry!

Song Huizong's face sank, and he smiled and cursed: "Don't bend me, talk nonsense. Believe it or not, I will order people to hit twenty boards with the stick now!?"

Wu Da decisively stopped talking nonsense, and bluntly said: "As far as the Weichen knows, the most troublesome thing in the Liao Dynasty is the cavalry! Since the middle of the Tang Dynasty, it continued to my Song Dynasty, my Central Plains has been lacking horses, even Not long ago, the imperial court and General Tongda used the fine salt donated by the ministers in exchange for a large number of war horses from all parts of the northwest, but for my Song Dynasty, it was still a drop in the bucket."

"Even if the Wei ministers donated horses and iron hoofs to the court not long ago, it still does not help improve the condition of our Song cavalry. There are many cavalry in the Liao State, and our Song cavalry is indeed too few relatively, so we The Song Dynasty can only use a large number of infantry units to block the cavalry. But in this way, it is to use human lives to fill my Da Song's scheming, I am afraid that it will cause heavy casualties, and the gains will not be worth the loss."

"It is an excellent idea to supplement the horses and increase the cavalry of the Great Song Dynasty. However, the effect is very slow. The Weichen has a way to find another way. Although I dare not say that it can completely solve the troubles caused by the Liao State cavalry, it is indeed possible. To solve a lot of unnecessary troubles, that is the'rejection of horses'!"

The horse-rejection stake is a wooden movable obstacle. The wooden posts are cross-fixed into a shelf, and the shelf is inlaid with blades and thorns to prevent and delay the movement of the enemy's horses and kill the enemy.

Song Huizong didn't understand military affairs, so he turned to look at Tong Guan.

Tong Guanlue nodded, "This method is indeed feasible. After Wu Zhi and the minister said this, the minister carefully thought about it. In fact, the rejection of horses had appeared in the history of the Song Dynasty. When His Majesty Renzong was on the throne, back then. In the West Expedition, I used this stub, cough cough... Well, in recent years, I have used it less for some reason."

The University of Wuhan continued: “Of course, Weichen’s repelling stakes (you can Baidu if you don’t understand, it’s very simple) are slightly different from the previous ones. Weichen plans to lay a layer of diamonds in addition to the repelling stakes. The horse-rejection cone is to lay a layer of inverted cone-shaped iron cones on the ground (similar to the anti-tank-proof piles of military movies), and cast countless iron nails. Your Majesty can imagine that the Liao State cavalry attacked our country. During the Song Dynasty, those iron cones and nails would cause them heavy losses. When they rushed to my Great Song Formation, the horse-rejecting stakes would once again make the Liao cavalry suffer enough, and then we were attacking with the carbine. The enemy cavalry, the enemy cavalry must not be feared!"

Song Huizong's head was big. He rubbed his head helplessly, shook his head and smiled bitterly, and asked Tong Guan: "Are you a horse-riding stake and a horse-riding spear, and a diamond-shaped iron cone? I don't understand military affairs, Tong. Qing, I just want to ask you, is this method easy to use?"

Tong Guan seemed to be a little bit embarrassed and said in embarrassment: "Weichen can be sure that once this method is used, although the Liao cavalry dare not say that it is useless, it can indeed save us too much when the Song Dynasty fights the Liao State. Too much trouble, increasing the winning rate by 20% is indeed there. However, this method is too insidious. If the Liao Kingdom also learns it, I am afraid that the position of the cavalry unit in the future will be very embarrassing! There will be no more current status! "

This is also the reason why Tong Guan yelled at him after listening to the Wu University in Tong's Mansion.

He is trying his best to develop the cavalry. As a result, Wuhan University has come up with such a damaging method and directly abolished the cavalry. Isn't this stigmatizing him

Song Huizong smiled.

He is the emperor, so he doesn't care whether this method is insidious or not. As long as he can get rid of the cavalry of Liao and fight on foot, the Song Dynasty really hasn't been afraid of anyone!

Song Huizong gave Wu Zhi a weird look, playing with the taste: "Wu Zhi, I really don't know how your brain grows, how did you come up with this method?"

Wu Da curled his lips, shut up.

Of course, he is constantly slandering in his heart, and the Emperor of Song Dynasty, a group of scums who have never seen the world, Lao Tzu will tell you the world that Lao Tzu used to stay in, are all kinds of military movies flying all over the sky? What's more, the police and the inspector often set up all kinds of roadblocks on the road. Those roadblocks are more than a grade higher than this pile of horses!

Song Huizong was silent, presumably weighing the pros and cons.

Wu Da felt a sudden heart, and quickly said again: "Your Majesty, this kind of refusal pile is extremely cumbersome to transport and requires sufficient logistics support and transportation of troops. If there are villains on the court at that time, the ministers cannot guarantee. Will this method still be useful."

Song Huizong glanced at Wu University, tapped his small-sized dragon chair with his fingers rhythmically, and said lightly: "The method of salt making, the method of wine making, the method of body forging, perfume, soap, horseshoes, and horse-riding stakes. Wu Zhi, I have to admit that you have done a lot for my Da Song, but should you take the initiative to tell me where you learned these methods? Are you connected with the Yin Clan?"

Wu Dagui yelled, "Your Majesty, there is absolutely nothing to do with the Yin Clan!"

The corner of Song Huizong's mouth was slightly raised, "What are you worried about? No, I will allow you to destroy the Seven Star Alliance. However, this matter can only be found in the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce and that's it. You must not use Cai Mansion to be involved. Cai Mansion can only have one at most. The guilt of impunity is not strict! Taishi Cai has worked hard for my Da Song for many years. Even if he does evil things, I am willing to forgive him. I hope he can enjoy his old age, Wu Zhi, do you understand what I mean?"

Wuhan University didn’t hesitate at all, and thanked them cleanly.

"Chen, follow the order!"
