Two armies beat the other and one army, and eventually became a bear.

Such a big loophole has appeared.

Even Shentu Jia and Zhou Bo, they felt so ridiculous that they felt wronged before.

"As for the combat effectiveness of the Class A troops, I think there is no problem!" Wang Buye focused on another question raised by Shen Tu Jia.

This problem was discovered by Shen Tu Jia when he was fighting against the 82nd Army, and it was supported by a large amount of data.

Although it seems reasonable and well-founded, in Wang Buye's opinion, this data cannot be completely believed.

There are also many loopholes in it. Even if Wang Buye closed his eyes, he could see the problems.

"The equipment of all troops in this exercise is the same. The equipment advantages of the Class A troops have not been used, so it is acceptable to achieve this battle. In addition, the true meaning of the Class A troops is not here." Wang Buye said directly.

It is naturally impossible to carry real swords and guns in drills, and the configuration of Class A troops is very complete. Although it is not a hodgepodge, there are still three types of troops: cavalry, infantry, and archers.

Although the first-on-one tough battles of Class A troops can also fight, their real advantages are not just these.

In other words, the A-level troops in Wang Bue's mind.

First of all, if he is a force that can react quickly, and secondly, he must be an army that can adapt to multiple environments.

In the words of later generations, this is a synthetic force.

As for whether it is too early to do these things now? It is too wasteful?

Actually, it’s not. Wang Buye is not a rash person, and he will not do something blindly.

"As for the issue of military strength, it will increase in the future, but not now!" Wang Buye directly gave another reply.

The current 10,000 people are serious combatants, and there will be a little more in the later stage, but the number of combatants will not increase too much.

Now it is just to make everyone familiar with this model and explore the future direction.

In Wang Buye's consciousness, even if the A-level troops are expanded in the future, they will only have six garages. One garage is like a garage with twelve more than a normal garage, which is considered a strengthening platoon.

Other personnel are mainly added to non-combat positions such as logistics support.

For example, if a steam locomotive is equipped, there must be two drivers in one car, right?

It is inevitable that various problems arise in the early days of steaming cars. It is not too much to equip ten cars with one maintenance staff and two apprentices, right?

All of these are counted in the increase in personnel costs, so if we really count this way, the number of people in a Class A unit will reach about 20,000.

Moreover, Wang Buye intentionally picked up the equipment that had been thrown away again.

For example, the Qin army's large crossbow.

In the past, this kind of equipment could not be used on a large scale due to inconvenient transportation, and the requirements for terrain were relatively high.

However, with the equipment of steaming cars, this problem was solved.

Wherever a steamer can go, a big crossbow can be reached, and there is no need for manpower to push it.

Just make a hook and drag it behind the car. You can install some arrows or something on the car, so it will not affect the person sitting.

If there is enough space, then install a large crossbow on the car.

Not to mention anything else, if an army is equipped with five hundred large crossbows, it would be crazy to fight.

This is equivalent to a heavy weapon in later generations, and it has absolute deterrence.

After all, even if you have shields, that thing can be worn with candied haws. When fighting cavalry, it will be directly placed on the car. When fighting in a row, a large area will fall down. If you fight archers, you will have a greater advantage. If you are almost dead, you may not be able to get close to you.

The main reason why the big crossbow was abandoned was because it was inconvenient to carry.

If this problem is solved, it is still the most powerful equipment.

Whether it is field battles or siege battles, it has a relatively important position.

It is definitely not a replacement for any equipment.

If so, it can only be the artillery of later generations. The meaning of the two is actually the same, but the artillery is stronger.

Wang Buye is even thinking about whether he can consider setting up artillery?

After all, the most primitive cast iron cannon is not difficult to deal with, and gunpowder is actually not difficult, it is nothing more than a performance issue.

The early artillery in history was a big iron ball, and whoever hit it was considered unlucky.

But Wang Buye felt that he didn't need to do this. If he studied it more, it wouldn't be difficult to get a flowering bullet.

The book friends used the small book pavilion before.

No matter how much this thing is wasted, he is much better than a big crossbow.

However, after thinking about it, Wang Buye gave up this idea temporarily.

It must be done, but it is definitely not now.

Because the iron production is not enough.

With the development of the Han Dynasty, iron is needed in all walks of life.

With the advent of steam locomotives, the demand for iron has increased.

Even factories cannot produce essential products such as steam locomotives with full power. Where can they produce cast iron cannons more than the production?

Besides, even if I have created a cast iron cannon, I have gritted my teeth and compressed the raw materials for other projects.

Who will the guns made to the troops in the future?

If you have something to do, pull it out and fire it and listen to it?

That's not a banana. If you have this skill, it's better to study more how to improve mining efficiency so that Dahan's iron ore production can be higher.

Thinking of this, Wang Bu'e thought he should take the time to get out the black gunpowder first.

After all, no matter what you are going to do next, you must have gunpowder first.

In addition, only gunpowder can be used to build artillery. Even if there is not a large amount of equipment, it is still possible to use it as research and technical reserves.

Anyway, if you study it, it doesn’t cost much iron. It’s just a matter of building ten or eight steam cars less.

Regarding this drill, Wang Bue did not describe too much, but just pointed out the problem.

Then Wang Li organized a discussion, called both sides together, first raised their own questions, and then raised their other party’s questions, discussed and made progress together.

As for Wang Buye, he found three inconspicuous things, such as sulfur, saltpeter and charcoal.

These three things are not uncommon in the Han Dynasty.

The Shennong Hundred Herbs Classic once recorded as Stone sulfur, and there is also a description of this. Stone sulfur can transform into gold, silver, copper and iron, and a strange thing.

When Dahan was studying iron smelting technology, he added some of these things to test, but the effect was not good, so he finally gave up.

Most of this thing is currently found in medicine shops. It is a medicinal herb, but the amount is not large.

Saltpeter is also a medicinal material, and it is used very much and rich.

Saltpeter, also known as Glauber's salt, bitter nitrate, etc., is mostly used to relieve stools, clear heat and reduce swelling. If used externally, it is mainly used to treat breast abscess and hemorrhoids.

Not to mention charcoal.
