Chapter 2574
: Apart from being expensive, there are no disadvantages!
...
It can be said that both sides, with their military style, understood the corresponding number of people in a very short time, and then began to study the direction and distance of Luciano's advance, and made targeted arrangements.
Even without the participation of top wise men, everyone still worked out a number of plans that were relatively feasible, trying to deal with the opponent in one go.
However, with such a large number of elite troops, even with the support of the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, Ju Yi was not sure that he could defeat the enemy in one go.
“Never mind. Instead of risking exposure, I might as well take a gamble and kill the opponent directly!” Ju Yi was very clear about his position and what significance it carried.
Knowing that the enemy had such a great hatred for the Slavs, they still chose to retreat and evade. How would the Slavs think? What other ideas would they have?
Even if the Slavs accepted Han culture and chose to study it, within such a short period of time, they still knew that they were Slavs and would not identify themselves as Han people.
So whether it was for the Yuan family in the north or to win the Slavs' heart, Ju Yi understood that this battle was actually difficult to escape, especially when the forces of both sides were similar.
"Then, what should we do?" Yan Liang could naturally hear the determination in Ju Yi's tone, so he asked directly, asking how to do it, not why we should do it.
"Be fully armed, wear white clothes as a disguise, and don't leave any chance for the other side..." Hearing Yan Liang's question, Ju Yi knew what Yan Liang was thinking, and tried to explain it in more detail for Yan Liang to understand.
"I understand!" Yan Liang still chose to trust his brothers. He nodded and began to prepare, ready to take out all the tower shields and fingernail armors that had been hidden before and give the opponent a hard blow.
Ju Yi also returned to his own camp. Looking at his vanguard soldiers, they were equipped with a ring-handled sword, a light shield, a set of chain mail, and a conventional crossbow. He ordered on the spot, "Prepare for war, change your clothes!"
The equipment possessed by this vanguard soldier in the military camp is the same as that of ordinary elite soldiers on the battlefield of the empire.
Of course, some powerful armies may also use such equipment, or even have no such equipment, but that is limited to the former Han Empire. The current Han Empire basically does not give such equipment to the real top elites, except for the elite warriors...
Following Ju Yi's order, the first group of soldiers quickly changed their clothes and appeared in front of everyone, especially Gao Shun, Zhang Liao and others.
"They are very strong!" Gao Shun didn't say much, just looked at the vanguard of the death squad and gave a relatively fair evaluation.
If Ju Yi had said before that he wanted to kill the enemy and annihilate an army that could easily defeat Valery's Heavy Axe Corps, the success rate would be very low. But now, the success rate is indeed much higher.
Zhang Liao couldn't help but twitch his lips when he saw the first batch of soldiers changing into their clothes. He turned his head to look at Yan Liang who was looking at him and said with deep emotion, "As expected of the Yuan family, which has been a family of three officials for four generations, they are indeed rich."
After the vanguard soldiers changed their uniforms, the entire army fell silent. Just standing there, they exuded a solemn atmosphere and a feeling of death.
The original one-handed shield was directly replaced with a smaller arm shield, and the chain mail on his body was also covered with a layer of plate armor, and the ring-handled sword on his waist was still the same.
If we really have to say the most obvious difference in weapons, it is the crossbow carried on his back. It is no longer the conventional crossbow, nor is it the single-shot powerful crossbow that Zhang Liao had imagined before.
Zhang Liao had only seen the fine steel twisted wire crossbow at Bingzhou Steel, but had never seen anyone use it. As for the crossbow arrows, they were made of fine steel, and the arrowheads were made of a special alloy with a triangular shape, which further enhanced the penetration and bleeding speed.
In addition to being placed on a crossbow to serve as a crossbow arrow, it can also be taken out directly to stab people. The piercing effect is much better than that of ordinary knives and daggers. However, this is not usually done, mainly because it is too wasteful.
It can be said that this weapon, which was once promoted among the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, had a great influence on Zhang Liao.
After all, this thing has basically no disadvantages except that it is expensive and can only be used a limited number of times.
As for how expensive it is, a fine steel twisted wire crossbow with nine crossbow arrows can buy a war horse.
Moreover, after firing nine shots, the wire would have to be replaced. The high cost and rapid loss made Zhang Liao give up this idea.
I didn't expect that after running to Central Asia, I would actually meet someone using this thing. Each legionary has one, and even the crossbows are fully equipped. This Yuan family is extremely rich.
"My lord, it is true that you are very rich, but is there anything wrong with that?" Yan Liang was completely unaware of the point of the problem and took Zhang Liao's words as a compliment, which further confirmed this point.
"There's no need for me to introduce the fine steel twisted wire crossbow in detail. I've seen it in Bingzhou before. The Yuan family is so wealthy that there's no need to worry about the other party not being able to pay..." Zhang Liao turned his head to look at Gao Shun, and it was unclear whether his words were a complaint or envy.
If they really want to play around, it's no problem for officers of their level to play around a bit, but if it comes down to every soldier, that would be an unbearable price to pay.
Of course, there are more expensive ones than this, that is, the crossbow arrows are etched with patterns, the price of which can directly refresh your worldview.
"Wenyuan, don't worry. It's just a few valuables. My lord will not neglect your rewards." Fearing that his teammates would not do it, Yan Liang immediately made some supplements to strengthen their strength.
As for whether there are these riches, Yan Liang actually has no idea at all, but thanks to his trust in others, he believes that the wise men in his family can definitely handle these small things.
Gao Shun took a look at the vanguard death squad and recalled what Lu Min had said before. He learned some of the vanguard death squad's abilities.
No matter what, the fact that the opponent is able to focus his energy and spirit on the crossbow and deliver the most deadly and powerful blow is enough to show how powerful he is.
Many times on the battlefield, a single salvo of terrifying power is enough to change the direction and course of the battlefield.
"Interesting, they even have such sharp weapons. It seems that the Yuan family is truly the most powerful in the world..." Lu Bu looked at those fine steel twisted crossbows, his words full of satisfaction.
If it wasn't too expensive, he would also like to give one to each of his brothers. This thing is perfect for breaking formations. Even if it is a heavy infantry, it can bite off a piece of flesh from the enemy. The penetrating power is extremely strong.
