"Brother Li, it's the greatest blessing that you can come! The rest are trivial matters!" Zhao Zhen said seriously.Li Yanxian said: "Do you understand the purpose of my visit?" Zhao Zhen nodded and said with a smile, "Are you here to support me?"

Li Yanxian smiled and said: "It's really because of you... You defeated the Jin army so quickly. Could it be that King Xin Qiansui planned to send troops? You should have no right to mobilize the soldiers and horses of the King Xin army from the north and the south to go out together. However, Jin The army has dispatched several large troops to the west to support it. Of course, in Jiangzhou, the Jin army has about 5 troops! But even with this number, I believe you have calculations, don't you? "

For Li Yanxian not knowing that he is the King of Xin, Zhao Zhen felt a little guilty.Now Li Yanxian has made his attitude clear. When he is attacking the city and plundering the land, he will not go out to seize the territory with the Xinwang army.Although he didn't rely on himself, he was still in the same boat as him.Therefore, Zhao Zhen can no longer hide from him.

Zhao Zhen pulled out her fake beard one by one, and it was very troublesome to stick and remove the beard, so Zhao Zhen didn't even pull it out when she went to bed with Dong Yu.

Looking in surprise at Zhao Zhen who showed his true colors, Li Yanxian widened his eyes and said, "Brother Gao, how old are you this year? Are you twenty? Seventeen? Or eighteen?"

Zhao Zhen shook his head slightly and said, "General Li, I revealed my identity today because I trust you. You must not reveal my identity. I am the trust king Zhao Zhen!"

"What? You...you are His Royal Highness Xinwang!" Li Yanxian stood up in surprise.In Xin Wangjun, it is impossible for someone to pretend to be Xin Wang, and the other party is young and looks a bit similar to the Zhao family royal family he has seen. Obviously, the opposite is really Xin Wang.

"My minister, Li Yanxian, pay homage to the lord, and wish the lord a thousand years! I don't know if it's the lord, please forgive me if I offend you." As soon as Xin Wang revealed his identity, Li Yanxian became obviously respectful, bowed down and saluted.

Zhao Zhen quickly pulled him up and said, "You and I have a heart-to-heart relationship, so there is no need to be polite. Let me tell you that I really mean my identity, that is, I trust you and treat you as my own."

Li Yanxian was supported to stand up and looked at Zhao Zhen's young appearance.Thinking of the hard battles in Shanzhou City and Xiezhou during these times.He was very moved.

After a prince escaped from the Jin army, he didn't think of protecting himself.Instead, he resolutely went to the most dangerous front line and fought with the Jin army to the end.The brave and fearless, but resourceful Xin Wang Zhao Zhen is compared with the former Kang Wang and the current emperor Zhao Gou who fled south blindly, and the judgment is judged.

It is perfectly normal for a general to conquer the front line, but it is very rare to see a prince who goes to the front line himself and is invincible.Not only are they hard to see, but there are very few of them throughout the ages.

Li Yanxian looked at Zhao Zhen with a serious expression and said: "Your Highness, you have worked hard. According to what I know, the Jin Army and the Han Army alone may have 15 troops to deal with you this time." Zhao Zhen said: "I calculate that the number of troops sent by the Jin army is around [-], but the Han army, if there are more, it will be just meat!"

Li Yanxian wondered: "Even if this is the case, there are still a lot of [-] Han troops, that's a whole [-] troops! Can you eat it in one bite?"

Zhao Zhen smiled and said: "I can't eat it in one bite, can I eat it separately! I never want to eat a lot of food in one bite. For me, I can cut a piece today and another piece tomorrow. Use time to eat all the enemy soldiers, and then finely Chew slowly and you won't be held back!"

Li Yanxian said: "Actually, many people are paying attention to you now, most of them are watching the fun, but I think you can successfully repel the Jin army!"

Zhao Zhen laughed and said, "In this way, Brother Li must have provided a lot of military supplies this time!" Li Yanxian said: "I don't have much ability, and I can only take the [-] pairs of infantry in Shanzhou City with heavy armor, two A thousand spearheads, a thousand bows, a hundred crossbows and repeating crossbows! And eight hundred shields! What do you think?"

Zhao Zhen was moved. If he wanted to use money to buy these things, they would be very expensive, even more expensive than the mirrors he exchanged. After all, military supplies are prohibited to buy and sell. If others sell them to him, they will naturally take risks. Naturally, more money will be made.

Forget about anything else, but Zhao Zhen knew that the seven hundred pairs of heavy infantry armor were only the military equipment of the most elite soldiers of the Northwest Army in the Song Dynasty. It was the best heavy armor in the Song Dynasty. The defensive power of the piece is called a good one,

This infantry heavy armor is a kind of heavy armor similar to fish scale armor, but the forged steel sheet is smoother and thicker.Even with swords, guns, bows and arrows, it is difficult to hurt.

Especially the stepping crossbow and the continuous firing crossbow are very powerful and can be shot a hundred steps away.Moreover, the Wangshan on the crossbow can set the ruler.This kind of crossbow is generally not used by others, but Zhao Zhen knows how to use it. The main reason for using this kind of crossbow is to be able to visit the mountains!Otherwise, a hundred steps away, the person is only as small as a willow leaf, how could it be possible to "shoot" it all at once!

In Zhao Zhenjun's military industry, firearms, gunpowder and steelmaking are the most advanced in the world, and there is not one of them, but the only one.However, armor and crossbows are still the best of the Song army supplies, and they are the most expensive weapons that the Xinwang army lacks.

The reason why I believe that Wang Junjun's industrial workshop can't produce such a refined crossbow is because its manufacture is no small matter. If each crossbow piece meets the requirements, counting from the growth period of the material, it will take a total of ten years!This is also the original meaning of the three-year bow and ten-year crossbow!

Crossbows and other utensils are all made of wood, not every kind of wood can meet the requirements, and the requirements for hard and soft parts are different, which is why the price of crossbows is expensive!Special Forces Crossing: The Prince of Song 109

Similarly, the lethality of the crossbow is also terrifying. It is the best long-range weapon in ancient times, and its power and shooting speed even exceed the most primitive musket.The current state of Jin is learning to imitate various weapons of the Song Dynasty, especially gunpowder, but it is difficult for anyone to reproduce this kind of excellent crossbow that only the Song Dynasty has!

"Thank you, I will give you ten mirrors one foot long, and twenty of the most exquisite crystal glass crafts." Zhao Zhen said, he did not use Li Yanxian in vain, it is not Zhao Zhen's fault that this person helped him so much. "character.

"No need! As long as the prince can defeat the Jin army, these things will be used wisely, which are much better than those stored in our arsenal. Now that the Jin army is strong, the final general is restricted by the emperor's order and cannot help the battle. The final general will not Short of gold and silver, I just want to see what you can do with your army, my lord!" Li Yanxian shook his head and said.

In fact, what Li Yanxian said is quite right. On the surface, everything about Xin Wangjun is thriving and marching towards glory.But the fatal crisis has actually come under the nose.That was the time when the main force of the Jin army went south and returned to the army.

If Zhao Zhen didn't seize the time of about half a year, he would connect his two lands into one and border on the land occupied by the Southern Song Dynasty.Having laid down a solid site like an iron barrel, and relying on the territory occupied by the Southern Song Dynasty to return food, military supplies, etc., it means that Zhao Zhen will face the golden army's full retaliation attack in the future.

Zhao Zhen had reason to believe that once things got to that point, Zhao Gou would kill himself with a smile, and there was absolutely nothing to say.Rather than saying that Zhao Zhen set for himself more than half a year, it would be better to say that he only had half a year to be arrogant.

For Xin Wangjun, time is so tight.Although Li Yanxian didn't want mirrors and glass products worth thousands of dollars, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but give them to him.Originally, Li Yanxian didn't want to benefit from helping Zhao Zhen, he just wanted to expel Jin Bing.

But Zhao Zhen must give.There is no way, Li Yanxian's soldiers and strong men need more than 2 people for his expenses.Even if Li Yanxian has a certain amount of court worship, it is not easy to feed these 2 people.Compared with Zhang Jun, who is now above Li Yanxian, it is one thing to be a little stronger than Du Chong.But at the same time, because of his literati background and good family conditions, he is not a person who knows hardship.When the Song Dynasty was invaded by the Jin soldiers and the national power had begun to decline rapidly, this Zhang Jun began to drastically reduce some unnecessary expenditures.

This is inevitable, because in the heart of this ambitious and self-willed Xuanfu envoy of Sichuan and Shaanxi, due to the large-scale invasion of the Jin army southward, a large area of ​​​​land is lost.The imperial court's taxes were reduced rapidly, and all the armies asked for extremely crazy amounts of money.Zhang Jun also had to deduct some money to start for his own soldiers, as well as all his own expenses.Of course, it is also possible to pack some of your own personal pockets.

Therefore, the military pay given to everyone is naturally greatly reduced.However, Li Yanxian received less and less military funds, reduced military benefits, and various deficiencies made Li Yanxian helpless.But for Zhao Zhen, he had to help the other party find a way. Among other things, the other party's army was just a lubricant separating the Xin Wang Army and the Song Army.With Li Yanxian's army in the middle, Xin Wang's army would not clash with Song's army.

Moreover, after a long war in Shanzhou City, there is not much food left.For the army, food is the most important thing.

But Xin Wangjun was also short of food, and Xin Wangjun could not help Li Yanxian with food.However, although Xin Wangjun was short of food, they were worth a thousand dollars. Naturally, countless big merchants came to send a large amount of grain, pigs and sheep in exchange for glass, mirrors, Perfumes and more.

Therefore, Zhao Zhen had to give Li Yanxian the mirror and glass products that Li Yanxian had promised. These items were all the most exquisitely crafted, and they were much more expensive than ordinary mirrors and glass products.Believing in these things, Li Yanxian can directly raise enough military rations for 2 people for three months.

Some people may be surprised that just some mirrors and glass products were enough to feed 2 people in that era, which is amazing!But it is what it is.All kinds of transparent and colored glass products are worth tens of thousands of guan, and they can really sell for tens of thousands of guan, and mirrors are even more expensive.Tens of thousands of coins can buy 2 people with military rations for more than half a month.

Of course, this is the price in the south.Selling to merchants who trade back and forth, one-third to half of the price would be good. Of course, merchants trade with grain and gold.A businessman seeks profit, and naturally makes a lot of money back and forth.

Li Yanxian was on military affairs, so he was about to leave in a hurry.He did not know how many spies and spies from the Southern Song court and Jin Kingdom were in his army, so he had to rush back overnight.After sending Li Yanxian away and ordering the guards to bring the items to Li Yanxian, Zhao Zhen came back.

At this moment, Li Yuxuan walked in from the room next to Zhao Zhen's hall. "Your Highness, General Li is indeed a loyal and courageous person, but is he so generous, do you have instructions from someone above him?" "Above?" Zhao Zhen smiled and said, "You mean Zhang Jun or Zhao Gou!"

"Hahaha! Zhang Jun doesn't have the courage. In terms of military ability, he is not as good as Li Yanxian. As for Zhao Gou? To put it bluntly, he is just a pig! It's just that he got the time before me. He wants to Maybe the rebellious rebels collapsed, and at the same time they wanted to seek peace with the Jin soldiers. But he didn’t even know how to drive away tigers and eat wolves, and sit back and watch the fire from the other side to reap the benefits of the fisherman. He is simply a fool except that he is better than me in everything Military idiot!" Zhao Zhen was very disdainful towards Zhao Gou, the current emperor of Song Dynasty!He thought that the reason why Zhao Gou was able to compete with him was to instruct others to have the right time and the reputation of orthodoxy.

But these words are Zhao Zhen's complaint.In fact, it cannot be said to be completely correct.In fact, Zhao Gou is actually very smart.Whether it is wisdom or talent, he is actually not bad.If this were not the case, then the world of Song Dynasty would not have fallen into his hands.

But the problem is only his character.When Zhao Gou was a prince, he was considered courageous.Entering the barracks for the first time, he was secretly murdered by the nobles of the Jin Kingdom, and only then did he develop hidden illnesses.

Zhao Gou was mutilated by the nobles of the Jin Kingdom, but it was actually a very secret matter, and no one could tell it.Jin Guo said it would affect their reputation. Even the barbaric Jurchens were unwilling to bear the reputation of playing with the imperial princes at will.And Zhao Gou needs to swallow his anger even more, enduring the pain of being incapable of personnel and having no offspring.

Zhao Gou had a psychological shadow, and at the same time was afraid of the nobles of the Kingdom of Jin and the army of the Kingdom of Jin.Therefore, a shadow appeared in Zhao Gou's heart.Therefore, Zhao Gou was afraid of the Jin soldiers from the bottom of his heart, and ordered other generals to fight against the Jin, but he secretly asked for peace and ran away blindly.But Zhao Gou was very smart, and all the famous members of the Zhao family's royal family and all the powerful rebels were assassinated or disintegrated by him one after another.In the end, Zhao Gou, who had fled, was still able to secure half of the country.Although a group of famous generals played a role in turning the tide, you said Zhao Gou was stupid, but he was not.Special Forces Crossing: The Prince of Song 109

From the military crossbows brought by Li Yanxian, Zhao Zhen took out crossbows such as stepping crossbows and repeating crossbows, and directly asked his craftsmen to imitate them.

"I want you to find a way to try out crossbow equipment. You see, the main component of a crossbow is wood products. I want you to find a way, except for the main structure, to see if you can replace its parts with copper and iron as much as possible. You know, the crossbow The loss rate of the crossbow is extremely high, mainly the parts and utensils inside the crossbow, if those sensitive things are replaced with copper and iron, the effect will be much better!" Zhao Zhen pointed out the direction to the craftsmen.

In Chinese civilization, the crossbows made have always been ahead of the world.But the problem is that Chinese crossbows are generally made of wood, and when Chinese crossbows spread to the West, the West has been trying to improve them. The main way is to replace the wood on the crossbow with metal.Because wood materials are prone to wear and tear due to accidents, if a crossbow is not used for ten years, it may be finished, or if it is used more times, the wood grain will break and it will break again.In contrast, replacing it with metal can be used permanently.

Naturally, the leader of the craftsman had no objection, but he said: "It is possible, but my lord, we need to disassemble a few crossbows... this..." Zhao Zhen understood what he meant, military crossbows are very expensive, and ordinary people would agree Disassemble the expensive military crossbow at will?

But Zhao Zhen naturally agreed, and he said without hesitation: "Okay, I will give you five crossbows of each type!" A high-quality military crossbow is very expensive.The best repeating crossbow, due to the high requirements for wood and tight workmanship, can even cost dozens of guns.Even if the products here are mass products, no matter how cheap they are, a crossbow costs about ten lances. What does the ten lances mean?Dozens of taels of silver!Faced with five crossbows of various types, they can be disassembled and studied at will, which means that valuables with hundreds of silver can be damaged at will.

Do you know why the Kingdom of Jin couldn't learn the best crossbow technology of the Kingdom of Song?In addition to the fact that the craftsmen's technical level is not as good as that of the Song Dynasty and they do not pay attention to crossbows, but only bows, it is also because their craftsmen are not allowed to disassemble precious crossbows at will.The head craftsman was extremely moved when he heard Zhao Zhen's words. He held a repeating crossbow and could hardly speak.

"When will the new cavalry weapon I want be ready? The commander-in-chief's mansion has already made it and distributed it to all ministries, so hurry up." Zhao Zhen said.

The craftsman leader said: "Don't worry, my lord, it won't take half a month to build it. If it weren't for the lack of manpower on our side, we can do it faster, and the main reason is that the lord has too many types of weapons..."

Zhao Zhen sighed: "There is no other way. The golden soldiers are more powerful than us, and our cavalry is actually inferior to the opponent in some aspects. Therefore, our cavalry must use enough weapons, otherwise how to improve their strength?" As for combat effectiveness... We have so many soldiers now, I also have a headache! Some weapons need to be made more, such as throwing knives and shields!"

The flying knife is to learn from the Arab flying knife camel soldiers. The Arab flying knife camel soldiers are so powerful that the powerful European crusaders wearing heavy armor were beheaded countless times and failed.

As for the shield, Zhao Zhen designed a small shield for cavalry. It has two handles, one is used to put on the arm, and the other is used to hold it in the hand.The shield surface is curved and extremely strong.There are three kinds of shields designed by Zhao Zhen. One is the spiked shield, which has a spike on the shield surface, which allows people to counterattack while defending.One is to add a blade to the front of the shield, the one with a single blade is a shield knife, and the other is a double-edged shield with two sharp thorns.

In addition to the small shields, there are also large shields like pot lids used by light cavalry, and large shields used by infantry... Anyway, under Zhao Zhen's whimsy, he made a lot of things that are convenient for fighting A unique cold weapon.
