Chapter 24: The Queen Mother is still charming
[If you privately raise 5,000 heavy cavalry, do you know what this means? ]
[In ancient human history, 99% of countries never had more than 5,000 heavily armored cavalry.]
[Are Cao Wei's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry powerful enough? ]
[In fact, there are only about 5,000 to 6,000 people.]
[Most of them are light cavalry, and the real heavy cavalry Tiger Cavalry is only a small part of them. ]
[In this way, this Tiger and Leopard Cavalry has fought from north to south. ]
[Yuan Tan, Wuhuan, Ma Chao and Liu Bei were all defeated by him. ]
[And the total number of the Tang Dynasty's Black Armor Army did not exceed 3500. ]
[But it was this 3000-strong cavalry that helped the Tang Dynasty conquer the world. ]
[He also left a legendary record of capturing two kings in one battle and defeating the Turks thousands of miles away! ]
[It can be said that when you have 5,000 heavy cavalry, it is no longer you who should worry about the emperor, but the emperor who should worry about you.]
[At this point, why would you still care about the honors in the imperial examination? ]
[If you operate well, you can decide the imperial examination! ]
[What happens if you have more heavy cavalry? ]
[This is no longer something I, as a UP host, can do. ]
[Please also ask the audience to post their own ideas on the barrage so that everyone can discuss. ]
[I'll talk more about this at the end of the video.]
In the Tianmu video, in order to cheat data traffic, the UP host left some blank content for the audience to comment and post barrages.
At the same time, the ancient people of all generations were outside the sky.
They also speculated about what would happen to the 5,000 heavily armored cavalry.
Han Dynasty.
Emperor Wu of Han looked at the mighty heavy-armored cavalry on the sky screen that were used as video material, and he could not help but say with envy:
"In order to fight the Xiongnu to the death, I have spent all the savings of several generations of the Han people."
"I have assembled the largest cavalry team in history!"
"But the Han Dynasty still lacks elite armored heavy cavalry like those on the sky curtain!"
"If the Han Dynasty had an army of 5,000 armored heavy cavalry, the Xiongnu would no longer be able to pose any threat to the Han Dynasty in field battles!"
"There will no longer be a royal court in Mobei!"
But in the late Han Dynasty.
Liu Bei looked at the cavalry on the sky, shook his head in confusion, and said with a sigh:
"The Sky Curtain raises questions."
"But I can't answer that."
"Because I've never fought such a rich battle in my life."
"But I know that if a person really privately raises 5,000 armored heavy cavalry."
"The lower limit is that he is also a local lord, and it is basically impossible for him to have an opponent in a battle in the wild."
Tang Dynasty.
Li Shimin saw this question and laughed out loud.
“Although the problem with the skylight is not very realistic, it’s still pretty cool to think about it!”
"If I had 5,000 heavy cavalry, I would have won the battle of Hulao Pass much more easily, right?"
"If I were given a 5,000-man heavy cavalry."
"Then don't even think about the Turks daring to invade Chang'an."
"I will go 30,000 miles west of Chang'an and kill all the Turks!"
Song.
Yue Fei looked at the question on the sky, and couldn't help but think of the Jin Kingdom's super heavy armored cavalry that was known to be invincible in the world.
Iron Buddha!
Ever since the war between Song and Jin.
The Jin cavalry dealt a devastating blow to many Song Dynasty troops.
The biggest threat Yue Fei himself faced in many battles was the Jin Dynasty's heavy armored cavalry.
Yue Fei fought against the Iron Pagoda of the Jin Dynasty.
And they knew that many Song armies had suffered heavy losses at the hands of the Iron Pagoda. The Song armies with average combat effectiveness could not even think of fighting against the heavy cavalry.
Even two or three thousand Jin light cavalry were enough to crush tens of thousands of Song infantry in a field battle.
Although his own Yue Family Army was elite, it was no less powerful than the Jin Army.
But to be honest, every time we faced the charge of the Jin Dynasty's heavy cavalry, the battle was full of danger.
Yue Fei has also been trying to find a way to defeat this opponent.
So after Yue Fei saw the problem on the sky, he couldn't help but sigh and said:
"I don't know what will happen to the man on the sky curtain if he privately raises 5,000 heavy cavalry."
"But I know that if I have 5,000 heavy cavalry, then it will be just around the corner to defeat Huanglong!"
……
On the sky screen, netizens also expressed their opinions.
"What does it mean to have 5,000 heavy cavalry? Li Shimin doesn't even have them!"
《Even the generals of Tiance have to call you brother!》
"Honestly, if I were the emperor and I knew someone had 5,000 armored cavalry, I would probably just write him a letter and try to recruit him for the time being."
"Recruitment? I'm afraid he will have to be given a government title and be the same as the three officials. He doesn't have to bow when entering the court, doesn't have to use his name when praising or bowing, and has to wear a sword and shoes when entering the palace?"
"There are only a handful of emperors in history who can deal with 5,000 heavy cavalry."
"Except for those top emperors, other ordinary emperors should just go to bed."
……
The sky screen also continued to play, playing the last part of this video.
[What would happen if you privately raised 50,000 or even 500,000 heavy cavalry? ]
Having raised this question, this section of the story ends here.
The sky curtain raised the question.
But almost no ancient people in history dared to answer.
How else to answer?
Is it the answer that "the destiny of the heavens changes, the divine tools are changed, and they will return to the virtuous man?"
The ancients did not dare to answer, but modern netizens have expressed:
"Imperial Examination? Who dares to let me take the exam?"
"5 cavalry should be no problem for a state shepherd, you can choose between Asian shepherds or European shepherds."
"If you don't consider logistics, 500,000 heavy cavalry in ancient times can make you the leader of the Earth."
"The person who asked this question really has no idea about numbers and ancient productivity."
"That's right! A planet that can support 500,000 heavy cavalry, this planet must be extremely resource-rich! I'm afraid even King Frieza would have to come here in person."
"Even fantasy novels only dare to write about 300,000 cavalrymen, but you directly wrote 500,000!"
《Five Hundred Cavalrymen, I am innocent!》
《Fifty thousand or even half a million cavalry?》
"Haha, you guys really made me suffer!"
"Master, this is the Meituan takeaway uniform. It's getting cold, put on some more clothes."
"You don't need 500,000. You can become emperor directly if you have 100,000 heavy cavalry."
"One hundred thousand? If you have five thousand heavy cavalry, the emperor will call you his brother!"
"You have 50,000 heavy cavalry. The emperor knelt in front of the Taizu Temple overnight and announced his abdication the next day."
"Emperor Wu of Han spent several generations' savings to raise 100,000 cavalrymen, which almost brought down the country. Now you have 500,000 cavalrymen, who the hell can afford them?"
"During the Siege of Vienna, the Polish cavalry, which totaled only a few thousand men, defeated the Ottoman Empire, the strongest empire in Europe at the time."
"Gongsun Zan's White Horse Volunteers, several thousand light cavalry, beat Yuan Shao for a long time. "
"With 500 cavalrymen, I will fight for your majesty till death! With 50,000 cavalrymen, I am your majesty!"
"I think this Queen Mother still has her charm..."
