"Your Majesty, this guy has already admitted that he is a liar. What do you want him to do?"
On the way back, Zhao Wengu asked softly.
"The secret must not be leaked. Although this kid is a liar, liars also have their uses. If used well, he can be worth millions of troops!"
Liu Deng said with a mysterious smile.
"You are lying to me, a little girl, again. How can this liar be worth a million soldiers?"
Zhao Wengu curled his lips, obviously disapproving.
"You will know by then that I, the King, never lie!"
Liu Deng was in a good mood and said while humming a tune.
"Your Majesty, where are we going now?"
"Now, go see how General Li Guang's new army is doing. It's not convenient for women to enter the military camp. Just wait in the car for a while!"
"promise!"
Li Guang's new army training ground was not far from the Salt Lake. In less than half an hour, Liu Deng and his party had arrived outside Li Guang's military camp.
But just when he was about to enter, he was blocked by someone.
"No one is allowed to enter without General Li Guang's military order!"
This made Liu Deng stunned. Did he not expect that he would encounter an old incident in Xiliu Camp today?
"Very good, then please go and report that I am here waiting for General Li Guang!"
No matter what, these people were just a mess less than a month ago, and they were just ordinary farm boys. Now, in less than a month, they actually look like soldiers.
It seems that his choice is not wrong, the famous general really has the demeanor of a famous general.
I just don’t know if this husband Guan will bring him another surprise?
The Han Dynasty has always been short of horses, which can't be helped. Liu Deng also wanted a powerful cavalry, but due to environmental constraints, Liu Deng decided to develop heavy infantry.
Li Guang is good at shooting, so use him to train a long-range army.
However, Guan Fu was brave, and Liu Deng hoped that he could bring him a powerful heavy infantry. As for their weapons, Liu Deng had already thought about it.
In the age of cold weapons, what is the most feared army?
The leader is of course the Mo Dao Army of Anxi of the Tang Dynasty. They are covered in heavy armor. Each of the soldiers is eight feet tall. They hold Mo Dao and can cut off whatever is in front of them.
If we could really train such a strong army, we wouldn't need much at all. Only 5,000 people would be enough to give the Huns a good drink.
"Li Guang is here to see you, Your Majesty! The army is unable to salute you, so please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
There was not much time, and Li Guang hurried out in a suit of armor with several generals behind him.
"General Li Guang, please call me. You have trained this army very well. You already have some command and control, and you look like a soldier. I came here today just to see the results of your training. I wonder if the general can give me some guidance." Want a little surprise?"
Li Guang cupped his fists and saluted Liu Deng, and looked Li Guang up and down. In less than a month, Li Guang seemed to have lost a lot of weight. It seemed that he had put a lot of effort into training.
"Please come up to the high platform and review their training results during this period, please?"
Li Guang said with a hint of pride.
"This king also has this intention, so General Lao Li will be there!"
Seeing Li Guang and the others' eyes filled with anticipation, it seemed that they wanted to show off their training results. Since they had this intention, Liu Deng couldn't let their hearts go cold.
"That's great, then let me see the results of your training during this period!"
Liu Deng laughed and followed Li Guang to the high platform in person.
Li Guang was immediately overjoyed and went into battle to beat the drums. After hearing the sound of the drums, the soldiers who were training around him began to line up neatly, holding bows and crossbows and began to form formations.
After a short time, the drum beat changed again, and hundreds of chariots roared in. The soldiers quickly changed their formations, and formed a three-tier array based on the chariots.
It seemed that Li Guang had put a lot of thought into this. At that time, he simply told him the principles of three-stage shooting. Unexpectedly, he had now turned these into reality.
Immediately afterwards, Li Guang gave an order, and thousands of arrows were fired. The essence of three-stage shooting is continuous shooting. Although the firing speed of the crossbow is much slower, it is much better than before.
"It would be better if the speed could be increased!"
After watching their demonstration, Liu Deng said thoughtfully.
"Your Majesty, this is almost the limit of manpower. I have seen the appearance of the repeating crossbow you sent. Although that thing has a fast firing rate, its power is small and can only be used within 50 steps. Moreover, if the opponent is close to If you wear iron armor, you won't have any damage to the opponent at all..."
Li Guang is a real person. If ordinary officials heard what Liu Dong said, they would naturally squeeze the soldiers' physical strength, but Li Guang, a fool, stood up and expressed his opinion directly.
"Continuing crossbows have the usage of repeating crossbows. If I give each soldier two crossbows to carry and a strong crossbow from a distance, and wait for them to switch to repeating crossbows within 50 steps, they can put iron armor on people, how can they also give horses Wear armor too?"
Liu Deng murmured thoughtfully.
"Just how much will it cost? These crossbows alone are worth a lot of money..."
Li Guang was still a little hesitant. The cost of making this thing was not very expensive. Liu Deng used the back door this time to get such a small amount of inventory. If he made it all by himself, the cost alone would be enough, not to mention the time. It made most of the princes and kings stay away.
"Do you need to consider money? I have plenty of money. Just consider whether there is such a possibility. As for the problem of money, I will solve it. And as for those Huns, it's not that I look down on them. They can also equip them. Can you afford iron armor?"
Although Liu Deng has not seen the Huns with his own eyes, he can tell after thinking about it that for the nomads, light cavalry is their advantage and is also their standing unit.
Heavy cavalry is a scarce item in today's Han Dynasty, let alone the Huns.
It seems that I still have to prepare heavy infantry quickly. As long as there is such a group of steel monsters, no matter what the cavalry is, if they are stuck at a pass, I will kill each one!
After listening to Liu Deng's words, Li Guang almost rolled his eyes, but indeed, Li Guang's thinking was still too petty. He only considered the cost issue, but never thought about the king in front of him. He is really the biggest loser in this dynasty...
"If the king is willing to spend money, of course such an army can be invincible in the world, but isn't this just using money to kill people?"
