Chapter 4117 Military System Reform

Yuan Tan quickly explained the cause and effect clearly. There is nothing to say about the battlefield. If you win, you will win. If you lose, you will lose. If you lose, you will lose. Just describe the facts.

But after writing, Yuan Tan stopped writing and began to think. After a while, he knocked on several cases. He looked at Yuan Zhong beside him, and thought for a while and said, "Uncle, if you go and invite friends, we have to consider some other things."

"Xiansi, it's already the second day. Why don't you work again tomorrow? You've been busy for a day today." Yuan Zhong looked at Yuan Tan and suggested.

"We must move the military system." Yuan Tan said softly, "It is better to notify Youruo sooner or later in this kind of thing."

Seeing this, Yuan Zhong stopped talking, nodded and left quickly, while Yuan Tan sighed, looking at the empty cases, thinking about where to change the next direction.

Soon Xun Chen came over wearing a white fur cloak. The snowflakes accumulated from the smooth fur showed how big the snow outside was underneath.

"This is the main loss of our battle with Rome over the years. This is the battle report this time. If you take a look." After Xun Chen took his seat, Yuan Tan handed everything in his hand to Xun Chen. Xun Chen just took over and glanced at him and frowned slightly.

"My lord wants to move the military system?" Xun Chen almost instantly understood Yuan Tan's thoughts.

"It's not possible to not move. We have suffered too much from the archers." Yuan Tan sighed, "This huge loss, even if Zhang Zhenxi was trapped in the camp and could not escape, it is very important for the sound shooting camp to fail to complete the tactical strike."

Xun Chen nodded. He was a soldier. Although he was mainly in charge of the rear now, he really wanted to go to the battlefield. He was no worse than Xu You and Shen Pei. It was just that the situation forced him to stay in the rear.

Although Zhang Ren did not break through the Macedonian front, it was indeed the biggest problem compared to before, considering that this time it was a snowy night in Rome, the Han army made a mistake from the beginning, which made Zhang Ren unable to turn around and reorganize the front when he found that the Macedonian front became extremely difficult.

To be honest, this is really a problem for Zhang Ren. Zhang Ren hit Macedonia every time. When he found that Rome was riding on the front and raiding the camp at snowy night, Zhang Ren hit the head-on severely. The only problem was that the operation was correct, but it was not penetrated. Because of the camp problem, it was impossible to intersect from the side.

In the end, he could only bite the bullet and attack hard. As a result, Guan Yuanjin, who was covering the rear, was shot and killed on the spot by intuitively. Zhang Ren was directly sitting on the wax. Anulinus himself proved his strong luck in official history. If he hadn't been strong enough, how could he have hit his opponents with a storm...

In addition to the luck of the Fourth Eagle Emblem, after it bloomed, it was a perfect match, and occasionally produced occasional unexpected effects, and Zhang Ren's rhythm was disrupted.

Therefore, when Yuan Tan saw the battle report, there was nothing to say. Zhang Ren's judgment was correct. If it was a normal Fourth Eagle Flag Legion, Zhang Ren's eating face was definitely the best operation.

Judging from the subsequent situation, although Zhang Ren made a mistake and the combat effectiveness of the Tunqi did not completely increase, he was not directly defeated. Half of the reasons for the failure were turbulent in the rear front.

"What does the lord mean is to increase archers or reduce archers?" Xun Chen asked a very strange question. Theoretically, since it is an archer because of its overall strength, it should increase archers, but there will be another option in Xun Chen's inquiry.

"Eliminate Shooting and Changshui." Yuan Tan sighed and said, "Using General Zhu's crossbow shield guards, the archers' survival ability is too poor, and precision is actually of no significance for coverage strikes. In the future, conventional archers will not be included in the legion structure and will only serve as auxiliary."

"Can't keep up with the times? The Ruiz has not been eliminated yet, but the archers have been eliminated first." Xun Chen sighed and said.

"There is no way. We are fighting a pioneering war. Most of the time, the number of people who can reach the battlefield is less than the opponent. Duizi can only lose." Yuan Tan said with a little depression.

Whether it is a dual talent or an archer of the Imperial Guard level, as long as he does not have the talent to correct, the armor he can use can basically shoot through for ordinary archers.

In other words, the attack power of the bow and arrow legion that you have practiced for ten years has reached 10,000 and defense power of 500. Others can organize a bow and arrow legion, and in half a year, the attack power of 600 and defense power of 100 are also one-to-one with you.

So much so that in an era of talent-strengthening, archers have become a nearly exhaustive military, and the most taboo thing on foreign battlefields is the war of attrition.

Because it is not enough to consume local operations, a country with a population of tens of millions will lose hundreds of thousands of people, which is not fatal. However, if you fight across thousands of miles, the total force you can invest may be less than hundreds of thousands. Therefore, what you need to fight against foreign wars is to effectively kill the enemy, rather than to one-to-one Duizi.

"Although the sound of shooting and Changshui is good, its positioning is to defend the capital, as well as to target special legions, suppress rebellions, etc., the so-called archer legion, forget it, it depends on the cavalry and infantry." Yuan Tan felt that he could understand the time when the history books fought against the Huns, and in the end, why the Han army only had crossbow-carrying cavalry, crossbow-carrying infantry, and all-around infantry, and there were basically no archers.

"Do you develop heavy crossbows?" Xun Chen nodded, "This requires technology. Even if it is a shield guard, you can only use small and medium-sized crossbows. The power of small and medium-sized crossbows is not fatal to some top heavy legions."

"This requires technology, and Chang'an is also developing. From a certain perspective, Chen Zichuan's vision is indeed very good. Speaking of which, what is the situation of their Yuanrong Crossbow? I think this is suitable for front-line soldiers as melee weapons, and it is very good to use it with your face." Yuan Tan said expressionlessly. He wanted to have sex with Chen Xi for free.

"No, the cost cannot be suppressed." Xun Chen shook his head and said, "More than 10,000 yards were produced, and then the production was stopped for technical improvements. As a result, after the changes in the sky, many masters had other tasks, and now they have been put on hold. However, Chen Zichuan did start to transition to the crossbow machine."

In fact, it was not Chen Xi who was too over-directed toward the crossbow machine, but that the use of bows and arrows was too troublesome, and the mortality rate was too high. Chen Xi had to calculate the personnel cost, so he gradually equipped the first-line heavy infantry with standard weapons such as three-arrow crossbows, and gradually eliminated archers.

After all, strong crossbowmen do not need much training. They can be used with a little training when they pick up strong crossbows. Archers need a lot of training and are easy to lose when shooting.

In fact, it can be seen from the official history of the military records that due to the large-scale foreign war demand in the Han Dynasty, the demand for bows and arrows was much smaller than that of cavalry and powerful crossbows. "The Book of Military Vehicles and Vehicles of the Fourth Year of the Arsenal Yongshi" crossbows 537707, bows 77521, crossbows 11458424, arrows 1199316.

Basically, the comparison between crossbows and bows is about ten to one, which actually shows that after the Han Dynasty experienced a large-scale foreign war, it was clear that the limitations of pure archer legions in foreign wars were better than equip infantry and cavalry with strong crossbows so that these people could strike freely.

Even if there is no talent enhancement in official history, archers are also attacking high and defense low for archers themselves. Since infantry wearing armor can kill the archers on the opposite side with a strong crossbow, why should they form a pure archer legion?

Even the Danyang elite, who are particularly strong in bows and arrows, are essentially all-round infantry. Bows and arrows are just a relatively effective auxiliary means for Danyang soldiers.

After thinking through this, Yuan Tan finally gave up the high-level shooting sound and Changshui, and instead prepared to set up a powerful crossbow assembly line to equip the infantry and cavalry on the front line with a powerful crossbow. Of course, Yuan Tan's ultimate idea was to equip each soldier with a Yuanrong crossbow.

As for relatively professional archers, they are replaced by the crossbow machine and shield guard created by Zhu Yan. Anyway, they are comparable to the attack of dual talented archers, which is almost enough.

Besides, the survival ability of this thing is far stronger than that of ordinary archers. After all, it is a full-armored infantry, but it is much more resistant to beating than an archer. Even if he is approached, he can continue to fight.

"Chen Zichuan actually considers the cost? Forget it, then use the powerful crossbow we often use. At worst, each person can prepare two." Yuan Tan directly extinguished the thought he had just had when he heard Xun Chen's words.

After living for more than 30 years, one of the most terrifying things Yuan Tan has ever seen is Chen Xi's infinite resource hang. Then Chen Xi, who is now running the infinite resource hang, said that Yuan Rong crossbow is too expensive. Yuan Tan instantly lost interest in Yuan Rong crossbow. Chen Xi said it was expensive, so how expensive it was.

In fact, it is not very expensive to say. The reason why Chen Xi sealed this thing is that there are too many spare parts for this thing. Even if it is on the assembly line, the process is very troublesome. It requires too many people, so how can I say the combat power it brings?

This thing has a great bonus to ordinary elite soldiers, and it is actually just an auxiliary for top-notch veterans. Just like the Western Liang Iron Cavalry, it is enough to use a single-arrow crossbow or something. The ten consecutive shots of Yuanrong Crossbow are basically still undead for those who cannot be killed.

Chen Xi originally had the positioning of Yuanrong Crossbow that ordinary recruits could kill double talents. Later, this thing was mainly used for self-defense at Jia Xu's level. The gap was too big, and the input-output ratio was really embarrassing.

On the contrary, after the reform, the input-output ratio of large Yuanrong crossbows was normal. Chen Xi stopped producing the small crossbow that could be folded and put on, and the marginal efficiency was too bad. As for the production of Yuanrong crossbows, there were too few Yuanrong crossbows and insufficient spare parts, Chen Xi was not embarrassed to issue them.

However, when Chen Xiqing went to the Ganges River this time, he remembered to bring these Yuanrong crossbows with him and distributed a Yuanrong crossbow to every veteran who went to the Ganges River. The rest was removed as spare parts. There was no way, when you go to the battlefield, don't expect that the things on your hands will not break.

Ma Chao's weapons are very powerful after various special warming, but they still break when they should be cut off. Therefore, if you really go to the battlefield, you should prepare more weapons.

"I also recommend using ordinary strong crossbows. If not, you can get two more." Xun Chen nodded. After he received that Chen Xi stopped producing because he thought this thing was expensive, he completely lost interest in Yuanrong crossbows. Chen Zichuan thought it was expensive. How expensive is it? If it dispersed, it should be used.

"In this case, we will build a powerful crossbow production line. It just so happens that Shufan will need a lot of logging next year, so we will not lack wood." Yuan Tan thought about it, extinguished the relevant ideas of the Yuanrong Crossbow, and then replaced it with a normal powerful crossbow.

"But in this case, we'd better check the load of the soldiers, simplify the parts of the strong crossbow, and carry the entire production process onto the assembly line. Moreover, the crossbow machine has been small to grow. Next, we will build a Yonggu camp in Eastern Europe, and the arrow tower is indispensable." Xun Chen considered it very long-term.

"Let's produce three types of crossbow machines, a single-shot powerful crossbow that is directly carried by conventional infantry and cavalry, and it's enough to have about twenty crossbow arrows. It's a crossbow machine used by shield guards, a kind of ten crossbow arrows, and a heavy bed crossbow used in the Arrow Tower. We only need these three types." Yuan Tan's order was very clear. He knew what he needed and how to adjust it.

"Have you given up on the three-arrow crossbow?" Xun Chen asked in confusion.

"Pursuing power, one shot of super powerful cannot be killed, and three shots of ordinary power are useless." Yuan Tanxin said with a serious voice, and Xun Chen nodded. This is the truth.

"If the arrow is, it may also need to be redesigned." Xun Chen said with a sigh. This kind of thing seems simple, but it is still a lot of things to say. And it also requires some veterans who have experienced the battlefield to verify it personally, and then comprehensively evaluate the cost and damage.

"I'm leaving it to you. Although the shooting sound and Changshui are good, they are not suitable for us. The current precise meaning of the battlefield pile is probably only beyond the visual range." Yuan Tan looked at Xun Chen with a little depressed expression.

The Yuan family is also preventing the over-visual range. Currently, there are only two optimal solutions to improve the archer's survivability, one is to reinstall the archer's coverage strike, and the other is to exceed the visual range.

The former has basically been abolished, because in this era with the essence of heaven and earth, archers have no talent to support, and their re-equipment with physical energy is of little significance to archers of the same level, while the latter is the best choice.

"If you exceed the visual range, we must retain one as a deterrent, so let's forget about the conventional archers." Yuan Tan finally laid the tone of the Yuan army system.

Of course, retaining the archer legion beyond the visual range is not to go to the battlefield, but to be qualified to counterattack when the opponent strikes them.
