Of course, the improvement of hard power is limited. Give you one sword and you will have the fighting power of one sword. If you give you ten more swords, you can only wield one sword. No matter how many swords you have, it will be useless.
When the sword is gone, your strength will decrease accordingly. The improvement of soft power is more permanent and unlimited. You can learn a set of boxing skills, and then learn a set of leaping and leaping footwork to match the sword skills, or
It's about learning to stab someone in the back. Even if you don't have a knife, you can still use your fists and kicks to deal with your opponent, and you won't lose your ability to fight just because you don't have a knife.
What Lin Jue was thinking was that since manpower training and the ability to lead battles could not be improved in a short period of time, the only way to improve the combat effectiveness of these three hundred people was to provide them with high-quality equipment.
Providing bandits' weapons and equipment. This may be the only best way to enable these three hundred men to fight against enemies several times their own.
Liang Qi made it very clear that night. When fighting Bao Meng's soldiers and horses, the two sides actually fought hand-to-hand most of the time, so it was extremely brutal. When the opponent attacked the mountain, our own personnel could only smash down.
Stones were used to stop them. When the opponent got closer, they had no choice but to fight hand-to-hand. Although there were many stones on the mountain, most of them were grown in the ground and could not be dug out. The ones that could be moved were quickly used up, and then only
You can watch the opponent attack upwards. That's because everyone on Guishan Island has only one sword in hand, and they don't even have many bows and arrows, so they can't resist the opponent's attack on the top of the mountain. Although they made some bamboo bows, arrows, spears and darts
Throwing objects like this, but the power is too small and it doesn't work at all.
Moreover, both the offensive and defensive sides actually had almost no protective equipment. The bandits only had some rattan armor for body protection, and only a few of Gao Muqing's men had leather armor for body protection. There were basically zero protective equipment. In fact, both sides used a kind of
The most brutal hand-to-hand combat is carried out in an extremely primitive way. Because of this, our own personnel, whose combat effectiveness is much higher than that of the opponent, cannot avoid a large number of injuries. Because even if the opponent falls, they can always scratch the opponent with their weapons.
A wound will cause you to lose the ability to fight.
In this case, if Gao Muqing's men are equipped with strong bows and crossbows, as well as some defensive equipment such as armor and shields. They are also equipped with some sharp swords, iron guns and other equipment that are more sophisticated than the opponent's, then they will occupy a great position in the battle.
A large initiative. Even with dozens of bows and arrows or crossbows, it is enough to suppress the enemies on a hillside. The powerful bows and crossbows have a shooting range of three to four hundred steps from above, and can kill the opponent from a long distance. This
In the bandits' unorganized charge operations, they are simply an artifact of defense. Armor and shields can have the absolute upper hand in hand-to-hand combat and avoid a large number of casualties on one's own side. The bandits have no protection and fight hand-to-hand with fully armed opponents, and the results can be disastrous.
Just imagine.
If Gao Muqing's 300 men can be equipped with sharp weapons, equipped with bows, arrows, crossbows, and self-defense protective gear, then even if there are only 300 men, the situation will be greatly improved. Unless the other side desperately joins forces with several villages
With all the troops coming out, an attack of only one or two thousand people may not be able to attack the mountain.
Lin Jue's ideas became clearer and clearer as he continued to think. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his thinking direction was correct. If Gao Muqing and others wanted to gain a firm foothold in Luoyan Valley, they could only rely on their own strength to stand firm.
Heel, we can only use force to stop the bandits' incursions. Only when the bandits recognize the reality and know that they are unable to drive away this group of outsiders will they accept the fact that Gao Muqing's men occupy Luoyan Valley.
The specific method is to increase the combat effectiveness of the more than 300 people under Gao Muqing as quickly as possible, and quickly improve their hard power. Give them sophisticated equipment in terms of equipment and weapons, so as to gain an advantage in combat.
However, even if the idea is correct and the direction is correct, another thorny problem is difficult to solve. That is, where do weapons and equipment come from? These things are strictly forbidden to buy and sell, how can they get them? Even if there is a way to buy them
, where does the money come from? You know, swords, armor, bows and arrows are extremely expensive. Even if it is just a small amount of equipment for more than 300 people, it is probably a huge sum of money.
But the problem is that he is now a pauper. The fifteen thousand taels of silver that Liang Qi took away this time is almost all his savings. This is also a share of the prosperous business of Jiangnan Grand Theater in the past six months. If he had not entered Jiangnan
I'm afraid you may not even have a few hundred taels of silver in the Grand Theater's stocks.
Lin Jue didn't care much about money before, because he always felt that there was no place to use money. He had always had no worries about food and clothing, and he was not the kind of luxurious person, so he had no special enthusiasm for making money. However, at this time
At this moment, Lin Jue suddenly realized that money was such an important thing. It was actually related to the life and death of Gao Muqing and more than a thousand people.
Lin Jue suddenly remembered the standard armors, weapons, iron ingots and other items he had seen in the underground warehouse of Taohua Island, and felt indescribable regret in his heart. When he saw these things that day, he had no appreciation for the value of these things except for surprise.
I had made some estimates but had no idea. Only now do I understand how valuable those things were. Unfortunately, these things were all buried in the collapsed cave and could not be taken out. They became treasures that could not be taken out.
Lin Jue felt that he had to solve the problem of money. Since he already had a way to save Gao Muqing and others, he had to work hard to do it. He must not let Gao Muqing and everyone on Guishan Island fall into a desperate situation. Not only because
Gao Muqing also wanted to forgive everyone in the Guishan Island cottage. Although the incident on Guishan Island was an accident and not Lin Jue's fault, that incident has always been a worry in Lin Jue's heart.
That incident directly led to the disintegration of the Guishan Island village, resulting in the death of thousands of people and their imprisonment and servitude. It also led to the fact that although Gao Muqing and himself were already husband and wife, they had to separate their lives. This led to their current dangerous situation. Then
The accident had a huge impact, and Lin Jue has always been under the influence. Lin Jue must be responsible for the life and death of these people, and that is what he must do.
But where does the money come from? This is a thorny question. When money is used, you will regret it. You don’t spend much on weekdays. After making some small money, you think you are really rich. However, suddenly you find that you are actually still poor. Now
To get a large sum of money at once, Lin Jue really had no choice. The Lin family did have money, but it was a pity that they couldn't get it out. It was also possible to force the money to be used. After all, many people in the shipyard now were their own.
But he suddenly misappropriated a large sum of money, which would attract some people's attention. And what he was going to do next could not be noticed by others. He was a bandit, and there must be no leakage.
Or you can discuss it with Xie Yingying and the others. The two shareholders of Jiangnan Grand Theater should have a lot of money in their hands. I wonder if I can borrow some of it. But when I think of Jiangnan Grand Theater, Lin Jue feels a little ashamed. This paragraph of his own
I have paid too little attention to it. I have barely visited it in the past month or so. Everything is done by Xie Danhong and Xie Yingying. As a shareholder, I am too irresponsible. Now I want to borrow money but I am the first to do so.
Thinking of them, this seems a little inappropriate.
Think about it, the Jiangnan Grand Theater is the only source of money for him, so he should pay more attention to it. If it weren't for the dividend money from the Jiangnan Grand Theater, I might not have any money to give Liang Qi to solve his urgent needs when he comes to Hangzhou this time.
And during this period of time, I didn't pay attention to the affairs of the Grand Theater at all. I went to Green Dance once, and when I came back, I said that the Grand Theater was now re-performing the old plays because Lin Jue had not provided new scripts for a long time. Lin Jue
I didn't care about it at the time, but now I suddenly feel quite guilty towards Xie Danhong and Xie Yingying.
Lin Jue decided to go to the Jiangnan Grand Theater. Even if it was not for the money, he should go and see Xie Yingying and the others. But before going, Lin Jue knew that he had to do one thing, and that was to bring a new play script.
, otherwise there is really no sincerity in returning empty-handed. And bringing new plays should be what Xie Yingying looks forward to most, and it can also make up for her guilt a little.
That night, Lin Jue burned the midnight oil and worked hard all day and night. Finally, two new plays came out. One was "A Chinese Ghost Story" and the other was "The Legend of White Snake". Lin Jue had planned to write and submit these two plays before.
Performed for the Jiangnan Grand Theater. However, because it is a play about myths and ghosts, the demand for light and shadow psychedelic effects is high, and I am afraid that the performance will not be effective. But for the Oiran Competition on August 15th, Lin Jue has already found a light and shadow animation to match the stage.
The means of the agency, then now should be the time to launch these two plays.
