Just from the price given by Mr. Conmas, Huang Xuan could know that the Conmas family had made the final decision.
Adhering to the family philosophy, Huang Xuan can easily understand the other person's thoughts from the gestures he makes. Of course, the Conmas family can also pretend not to be in a hurry, but the problem now is that for Mr. Conmas, no matter how much money is saved, victory is not more important.
Nengton is an absolute strategic material, indispensable in both war and development. In most cases, it is more valuable than mercenaries. If ordinary travelers earn nengton, they usually buy it at R001 at a price of 00neng circle per nengton, and travelers must also sell it, just like the foreign exchange system implemented in China in the 1980s.
Mr. Conmas is willing to buy mercenaries at 50 times the normal price, which shows that 00,000 mercenaries may be decisive.
The last straw for the camel.
Therefore, Huang Xuan is not stingy with a little bit of resources.
He called Zhao Xi and several generals, and specially selected 5,000 soldiers to practice throwing stones. On Earth, he also began to buy food on a large scale to produce biological bombs. Each kilogram of biological bombs used about 5 tons of food. This is The requirements for cultivating microorganisms, plus tens of thousands of kilowatt-hours of electricity, are simple to say except for the price.
Calculated according to standard time, Dian Wei should be only over 0 years old this year. When he is full of energy, Zhao Xi is very good at doing things and keeps Xiao Dian in a suitable excitement every day. However, Dian Wei, who has a slightly dull personality, is a very good person. A responsible comrade, he never forgets his responsibilities besides entertainment. Although Huang Xuan always says that there is no need for protection, he still goes to work every day and smiles every time.
Zhao Di was good at sending out elite soldiers, and the grenadiers Zhao Xi selected were tall and strong, with the shortest ones being over 1.7 meters tall. In fact, the so-called ancient people were short in stature, which is not only a fallacy, but also very prejudiced. Although people rarely drank milk at that time, 000 years were not enough to cause fundamental changes in genes, and there were not a few farmers who lived a better life. Of course, many people are still hungry, just like some poor areas in China today. In terms of facts, Confucius in Sima Qian's works was "nine feet and six inches, and everyone called him a 'long man'." The ruler of the Western Han Dynasty was .1 centimeter, which is 1.76, which is only 5 centimeters lower than Yao Ming. This may be an exaggeration, but The clues are visible. Liang He, the uncle of Confucius, was said to be able to hold up hanging doors. He was ten feet tall, which is .1 meter.
Li Mu is also a master who likes to use tall soldiers. Why? Infantrymen need to be tall and have long arms to shoot bows, and the best way to deal with cavalry is bows and arrows.
So for Zhao Xi, it was not difficult to find tall and mighty soldiers. He just couldn't understand why Huang Xuan wanted the soldiers to practice throwing stones, and to throw them fast and far.
But from the perspective of "human spirit", Zhao Xi can easily understand it as a training invented by "Zhixianjun", which is very beneficial to archery.
Naturally, the soldiers could not complain.
…
Half a day faster than Zhao Xi expected, Li Mu rushed back to the camp with 5,000 cavalry on the night of the next day. Among them, 000 cavalry were newly allocated to him by Pingyuan Jun, which was equivalent to the total number of Li Mu's original cavalry.
Tian Dan must be over 60 this year, with gray hair and simple civilian clothes. He only has 40 followers around him, and he cannot be ranked in the front and back ranks. Compared with his power in Qi State, he looks a little desolate.
This kind of atmosphere is actually very similar to Huang Xuan's fantasy of the grandfather who just resigned. But in fact, Huang Jindi is a person who is very good at self-adjustment - or the achievements of his descendants gave him great comfort in his later years, but for life For Tian Dan, who was in a foreign country and was not taken seriously, his later years were very lonely and dangerous.
Huang Xuan had no doubt that Lord Pingyuan would strike with a sword at Lord Anping, who was only one thousandth of a threat.
Facing the unfamiliar Huang Xuan, Tian Dan just raised his eyelids and looked at it, then stood by the door with his hands tied, neither saying hello to Huang Xuan nor talking to Li Mu, as if to express his feelings.
Huang Xuan smiled and asked Li Mu to sit down, then he knelt down and said, "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Huang Xuan. I am the Zhixian Lord of Zhao State, but in fact, I am a businessman."
"oh?"
The gentlemen of the Warring States Period still don't understand why they discriminate against businessmen, but Tian Dan will not look down upon him because of this.
Li Mu sat there calmly, not saying a word. As smart as he was, he was probably full of suspicions about Huang Xuan "summoning" Tian Dan, especially to recruit a famous general who had been famous for a long time in his territory. It made him wary and naturally he was on the fence.
Huang Xuan kept smiling and said: "Your Majesty, I want to negotiate a deal with you."
It is not appropriate to call Tian Dan "Jun Shang" at this time. He is the Anping Lord of Qi State, but he is only the Prime Minister of Zhao State. In fact, in Huang Xuan's time and space, the last few years of Tian Dan's life, or In a few years, it was lost very simply, easily and inexplicably. It was recorded in the history books as "missing a trace", which is a very interesting writing style.
Tian Dan is a man of great wisdom. Such a person has a clear understanding of the surrounding environment and the world he lives in, and tries not to be biased by his own experience. Such a person should also understand his own situation. .
Therefore, Tian Dan raised his eyelids and said the first sentence of the day, which was translated into modern language: "I would like to hear the details."
Huang Xuan felt a little proud. He was facing Tian Dan. From the diplomatic history of the Warring States Period, Su Qin and Zhang Yi were removed from the mythical figures. He was the first echelon of diplomats and politicians. If he was placed after modern times, he They are Germany's Bismarck, Britain's Churchill, China's Zhou Enlai, and America's Roosevelt.
Now, Tian Dan said to him, "I would like to hear the details."
Huang Xuan likes this beginning.
Clearing his throat, Huang Xuan looked at the energy screen prepared on the right. There was a rhetoric he had already thought of on it. After reviewing it, Huang Xuancai said: "How long has it been since Lord Anping commanded an army? In my impression, , it should be almost 10 years, right?”
"I have been serving as Prime Minister for 0 years."
In a very gentle retort, Huang Xuan laughed dryly and said, "I can give Mr. Anping a chance to command tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of troops."
"Haha." Tian Dan laughed.
Huang Xuan laughed twice with him, and then said, "Tian Xiangguo doesn't believe it?"
"It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that I'm not interested." Tian Dan shook his head with a smile.
Huang Xuan glanced at Li Mu, who was paying attention, and said, "Is Lord Anping not interested in leading the army again, or is he not interested in leading the army in Zhao State?"
This question was too sharp, so Tian Dan calmed it down naturally: "I am weak and tired. It's not that I don't want to, but that I can't."
The old lady responded gently. Huang Xuan stretched out his hand and tapped it in the air, turned off the energy screen, pondered for a long time, and decided to tell the truth: "Jun Anping, let me be blunt. I have a friend who needs a large number of troops. And officer help, I hope you are the commander of this army?"
"oh?"
"The place is not in Zhao State, nor anywhere in the world. It is completely different from here. But if you agree, I can give you a guarantee. As long as your descendants, parents and family do not rebel, I will You will have a lifetime of prosperity and peace with them, and if you can win a few battles and have some savings, you can still come back to see them. If you want, you can take them away." Huang Xuan said this, which was actually equivalent to giving up. I used pure words to convince Tian Dan. Although it was vain to do so, in fact, whether it was him or some other great diplomatic figure who won a verbal battle and was left empty-handed, it was better to think about it. Well, without something substantial, a fox will not leave its den. The gentlemen Huang Xuan can think of, except for Li Kui and others, are basically smarter than him.
Huang Xuan's words obviously touched a certain nerve in Tian Dan, but he glanced at Li Mu who was also confused, shook his head again, and said: "I'm old..."
"Let's come out and talk." Huang Xuan shook his head helplessly, knowing that to convince this stubborn old man, he needed facts rather than reasoning.
The truth he can explain may be what others have said.
Not far from the door, there are grenadiers throwing stones. They are all about 80g. Each stone has 0.5g of biological bomb attached to it. The effect is similar to that of an explosive pack. It cannot be thrown 40 meters on flat ground. Basically, it will not reach 40 meters. It's Dong Cunrui.
Huang Xuan waved someone over. When the soldier saw Li Mu behind Huang Xuan, he immediately knelt down and kowtowed. Huang Xuan kicked him in disgust and said, "I'm calling you, don't waste time."
Li Mu was a little embarrassed, but he was not Lord Wu An yet. Although his actual power was much greater than that of Lord Anping, his status and power were still much lower than Lord Zhixian's. So it was hard for Huang Xuan to talk about this little soldier.
Fortunately, Huang Xuan just kicked him lightly, and then said: "Throw a stone and show it to your general."
"Yes." The soldier held back his strength, picked up the stone, and threw it out. The non-standard shot put throwing method taught by Huang Xuan was to retract the hand back, press it on the shoulder, and then push it out with force. Many children have discovered that This way I haven't thrown my arms far away, but I don't dare to change it.
Although his movements were not standard, he still seemed to be swaying about seventy or eighty meters. Huang Xuan felt ashamed. He turned back to look at Li Mu and Tian Dan, but heard Dian Wei say: "This one is not easy to smash if it is 10 feet away." Dead people."
Seeing Huang Xuan looking at him, Dian Wei said again: "I tried it. It can only break the head if it is 10 feet away, but it can kill the sheep if it is 8 feet away."
Li Mu couldn't help coughing, and Huang Xuan could tell that he wanted to laugh.
Huang Xuan raised his eyebrows and said to Dian Wei, "Tell everyone in front of you to get out of here."
Dian Wei didn't yell, he just ran over, walked around in a circle, and then ran away. It seems that he is also afraid of getting his head broken.
Huang Xuan took out a small piece of biological bomb from the plane passage, estimated to be more than 1g, and stuck it on a stone. He took two steps back and said: "Press here, then throw it out with all your strength, and throw it forward." Don't let go."
"Yes." The soldier stupidly put his thumb on a biological bomb with the equivalent of several hundred kilograms of TNT, and then slammed it out.
If you don't say that the ignorant are fearless, Huang Xuan had blocked his ears long ago. Just like that, the sound of flying sand and rocks was much louder than the highest volume of the MP. If Tian Dan had not been leaning against the wall, he would have been knocked down. The throwing of rocks The young boy was even more frightened. He probably didn't realize how serious his destructive power was. He sat alone on the ground, turning over and over, looking at the palms of his hands.
Many people training in the school field were frightened, and the horses began to become restless. After a while, people began to worship in a loud voice. Dian Wei was a person who had experienced the Battle of Changping, seen cars, and watched movies. He walked past everyone triumphantly and enjoyed the incense of a soldier for a while.
Huang Xuan pouted, and Li Mu said: "General Li, if you have such a sharp weapon, can you defeat the Huns?"
Li Mu replied "Yes."
Huang Xuan understood without the need for Lorraine to translate, and it was obvious that Li Mu's enthusiasm was ignited, just like Mr. Pingyuan back then. Tian Dan, on the other hand, fell into deep thought.
Huang Xuan didn't need to think carefully to understand the old fox's considerations: He had such a powerful weapon, and he was asked to lead the army. Not to mention how ridiculous it was to put someone he didn't trust at the head of the army. The weapon looked from one side. It shows the intensity of the war. How powerful the weapon is, there will naturally be a powerful opponent. If not, why look for him.
Tian Dan's idea was not bad. Huang Xuan welcomed the two of them back into the house with a smile on his face. He ignored the commotion outside and closed the door and said, "Mr. Anping, this time, I am going to gather at least 100,000 troops to go to Nanlu." Star combat is a place you can’t even imagine. In addition to ordinary bows, crossbows, swords and halberds, there will also be such bombs and more powerful energy cannons (high energy output). But as long as you listen to a simple introduction, I miss you. I should be able to adapt to the environment there quickly. I hope you won’t reject me.”
Since he said this, and thinking about Mr. Pingyuan's attitude, Tian Dan couldn't even refuse politely. Huang Xuan then took out a video and showed it to the two of them: "This is my world."
Ordinary plane wars are almost the same as those in the cold weapon era. Except that people hold biological swords in their hands, there are mainly three threats: travelers, high-energy output and biological bombs. Since they are not available in alien planes, Energy supply - Determining energy supply to everyone from another plane is a simple matter for travelers, but for cheap mercenaries, the cost of doing so is too high, and it is not suitable for ordinary bases. Affordable, so most of the time, the performances in the video are like wars in the 17th century.
Of course, in higher-level plane wars, where first-level mercenaries, especially time warriors, participate in wars, various biological weapons including biological mounts are extremely popular, but regardless of their technical content, their price First of all, it is unbearable for most planes, and the combat power has not been decisively improved. A first-class or first-class mercenary unit equipped with a small number of travelers will not suffer in the face of space-time warriors and first-class mercenaries with a small number of travelers. , and the price of cultivating space-time warriors is actually not low.
So in the video, hundreds of biological bombs exploded, the cavalry rushed up with a roar, and then the infantry advanced quickly, forming a dense formation, as if they were going to trample their comrades to death, striving to reach the point quickly.
Then came the energy output of several 1-heat-pound shells. The traveler who couldn't help it was pulled out again and was blasted to pieces by 70-heat-pound artillery. The infantry began to form a queue, the rear team crawled, and the front team looked for bunkers, waiting for the travelers. They decide the winner.
A small number of space-time warriors stood in a dangerous place and called out the officers among the mercenaries. The travelers who soon completed their energy output for the day began to withdraw from the battle, and even returned directly to the plane. A small number of travelers began to reduce their energy output. , and applied for the base to increase interference.
As the "information war" began, the infantry team cheered, stood up and began to charge. The cavalry team behind the bunker also lined up again to attack. A large number of bows and arrows began to shoot at each other. Along with the roar of biological bombs, occasionally some people were surrounded. If the space-time warrior has more energy, it is possible to break through the interference of the plane base and run home, but more often, when one's own overall strength is weak, a bunch of biological bombs will hit them, and the energy shield will flash, and then resist them. After several sieges, over time, they will always be chopped into pieces.
The completion of the breakthrough in the middle indicates that a battle has been won or lost. The mountains and plains are full of infantry. Unless there are high-level travelers who provide indiscriminate coverage without interference, 0 hot-pound cannons are used in exchange for 0 universal circles. 000 can circle the lives of the mercenaries, otherwise when the fast troops on both wings complete the encirclement, not even the travelers can escape.
This is the frontal warfare that the generals of the Spring and Autumn Period were best at, and it is also the reason why Bai Qi's army was praised by Philip Conmas, from Jiang Taigong to Zeng Guofan, from the 10 most awesome people in the history of Chinese cold weapons , his part is always indispensable.
In comparison, Tian Dan's reputation is much weaker.
But the difference is that Bai Qi leads elite soldiers to fight a sure battle, while Tian Dan leads a ragtag group and has no choice but to fight.
However, tactics and strategic thinking are always updated. Therefore, the battles in the video Huang Xuan took out are more compact and intense, and the performance of various bows and crossbows is also more outstanding.
Huang Xuan didn't know whether they were surprised because of the content in the video or the video itself, but when it was about to end, he still said: "Anpingjun, I hope you can convince Dabo, the leader of the Xiongnu's Chile tribe. Jin, and command them to participate in such a war in my world." (To be continued)
