Chapter 180: There are many different opinions, the time for the rebel army to change has come! (Subscribe)

Shangguan Wolong looked at the array of messages on the screen, his face looked a little ugly, and he was speechless.

[Shangguan Wolong: But to be honest, we are only one step away from destroying Daqian. We can just go straight to Huanglong. I don't think the Daqian court will be able to cause any major trouble.]

【There are turtles everywhere, and I have the biggest head: Yes, from the perspective of government affairs, the best thing to do now is to go straight to Huanglong to eliminate future troubles and avoid more troubles. 】

[Shangguan Wolong: There is another reason for doing this, that is, after destroying Daqian and ascending the throne, the rebel army will be a legitimate official force, no longer a bandit like before. More importantly, doing this can absorb the vast popular base outside of Cang, Yu, and Yangzhou, so as to greatly improve the strength of the rebel army, so that it can better deal with the covetous northern barbarians. ]

Shangguan Wolong and Mandi Wuguiwotouzui are people who are very familiar with internal affairs. They also stand on their own standpoints and propose the best solutions.

After all, there are some things that cannot be delayed at all, as delays will lead to changes. What's more, when it comes to things like the fight for hegemony over the world, there is no room for hesitation, otherwise there will be endless troubles.

However, at this time, Pi Dan Solo Congee, who is always good at winning hearts and known as Jia Xu, has a different opinion:
[Pidan solo porridge: I wonder what you think about the desperate situation?
Even rabbits will bite when they are angry, let alone the fact that the rebels are not facing a rabbit, but a dying wolf. Although the wolf is old, it still has bloodthirsty instincts.

Moreover, judging from the young emperor's swift and decisive measures, he was also a ruthless person who was unwilling to fail. If he was pushed into a corner, I am afraid he would fight to the death and take the rebels with him.

You have to know that what the rebels faced at that time was not the previous quarrels, but a fatal blow from the ancient empire of Daqian in a desperate situation, which should not be underestimated. 】

The group fell silent for a moment, and everyone was thinking about the view of Pi Dan Solo Congee. Shangguan Wolong took a deep breath and broke the silence.

Yes,

It is not scary to encounter a pack of wolves.
But the scary thing is that you encounter a pack of hungry wolves.
Driven by hunger, they will do whatever it takes to bite a piece of flesh off of you, even if you are pointing a shotgun at their head.

And now, Daqian is this hungry wolf.
If he is pushed into a corner, the rebel army may not be completely destroyed, but it will definitely be enough to seriously damage its vitality. At that time, it is very likely that the northern barbarians who are eyeing them covetously will take advantage of them.

As the saying goes, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. At this moment, Daqian, who has fallen into despair and gone completely crazy, poses a greater threat to the rebel army than ever before and must not be taken lightly.

After a long silence, the cat hair processing artist spoke:
[Cat Hair Processing Artist: From a military perspective, I have to pour a bucket of cold water on everyone. In just one month, the rebel army has experienced more than five or six battles, big and small. It is time to urgently prepare and consume what they have gained in these days.

Especially in the three counties of Yangzhou, since we have taken over the Daqian arsenal, we must make full use of it and not waste it. Taking advantage of this period of rest and recuperation, improving combat power as soon as possible is the most important thing. 】

[Lin Daiyu angrily kills Maitreya Buddha: The Northern Barbarians are coming in full force, with millions of armed men eyeing us covetously. We must not underestimate them. Without finding out their intentions, we cannot act rashly.

Secondly, as Brother Solo said, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. The five hundred years of foundation of the Daqian Empire is clearly there, and their desperate attack should not be underestimated.

What's more, everyone should face the reality. It is my righteous army that is at the gate of the city, not Daqian, so there is no need to be as anxious as before.

No matter what, Yangzhou is still Yangzhou. No matter how powerful the little emperor is, he can't turn Yangzhou into Daqian and make it impregnable. On the contrary, the one who should be anxious is the little emperor. Under the siege of the army, I wonder how long his swift and decisive methods can suppress the people's hearts? 】

[Pidan solo porridge: Yes, they are the ones who should be anxious now. The deterrence brought by cruel means will only become weaker and weaker as time goes by.

Now more people are just dazzled by the sudden wealth. When the excitement wears off, they will find out that they are surrounded by ambushes.

At that time, I am afraid that the Daqian court will be eager to take the initiative to go to war with us. 】

[Cat Hair Processing Artist: The rebel army's primary enemy right now is the Northern Barbarian Cavalry. According to previous intelligence, the Northern Barbarian Cavalry is extremely fierce and might be the same as the Mongolian cavalry in history.

This real gap cannot be ignored.

Moreover, in ancient wars, heavily armored cavalry has always been a powerful weapon and a deadly trump card, but if we ask ourselves honestly, the Mongolian cavalry has a place in this. 】

[Lin Daiyu angrily kills Maitreya Buddha: To be honest, the Northern Barbarians have a sturdy physique and are rich in excellent war horses. This is a gap that cannot be ignored. In addition, the Northern Barbarians have recuperated in recent years and have become stronger in men and horses. I am afraid that the number of cavalry will not be small.

This is a natural gap. Even if the rebels train heavy armored cavalry from now on, they will not be able to catch up with the northern barbarians. First, the northern barbarians will not give them time, and second, the rebels do not have the conditions to do so at present. So we must overtake them by taking a detour and find another way. 】

[Cat hair processing artist: Taking a different approach? Looking back at the past, when the Ming Dynasty conquered the Yuan Dynasty, they did not rely on head-on combat with the Mongolian cavalry, but relied on two powerful weapons. One was firearms such as the Shenji gun, and the other was the standardized armor that was developed in the Ming Dynasty by absorbing the advantages and disadvantages of armors of previous dynasties.

In fact, many of the armors worn by generals on TV today are strictly imitations of the armors of the Ming Dynasty. This can be seen from @the most beautiful woman in Bikini Bottom.

I remember she had commented on the Ming Dynasty armor before, and it was even selected, but the rebels didn't have the conditions before, but now it's time! 】

[The most beautiful woman in Bikini Bottom: I keep urging you every day! But there is no response (crying.jdg).]

[Cat hair processing artist: Don't worry, now that Yangzhou has been decided, the time has come! ]

【Lin Daiyu angrily kills Maitreya Buddha: Right! Right now we are surrounded by powerful enemies and the situation is not clear, but we can be sure that the Northern Barbarians are our biggest enemy, so making preparations in advance is a good idea.】

[Shangguan Wolong: That’s right, those who are not of our race must have different hearts. There is no doubt that the Northern Barbarians want to fight.

However, speaking of iron smelting and mining, it reminds me that industries like salt and iron were better state-owned under the feudal system.

Now that the army's combat power has been improved, doesn't it also require a large amount of minerals? If it is controlled by the state, it will be easier to control the yield of armor. 】

……

Afterwards, Lin Daiyu angrily killed several Maitreya Buddhas and posted her suggestions in the comment section as usual. The most beautiful woman in Bikini Bottom put the armor blueprint in the comment section, and it was pushed to the top floor.

At this time, the comment section was still arguing about the previous question of whether to attack Daqian first or destroy the Northern Barbarians first, which raised the popularity of the video to a higher level.

At the same time,
Lin Zhongyun used the three mineral exploration books he had just obtained on three experienced masters who had been mining for more than ten years.

He had underestimated these people's mineral-seeking skills before. According to them, that knowledge had been passed down from their ancestors a long time ago, but they knew they had to do it this way, but they didn't know why they had to do it this way?
We have now used three books on mineral exploration and asked them to write poems about the lake and gain a better understanding of some of the previous techniques.

From this perspective, building a mining team is not a dream.

Then he opened the video comment area to see what everyone had to say about the current situation. The first thing that caught his eye was the Ming Dynasty armor blueprint that was pushed to the top floor, followed by the speeches of Shangguan Wolong and others. After reading them, he concluded with the following three points:

The first point is whether or not to attack Huanglong directly and destroy Daqian. The general situation is unclear. Don't be anxious for the time being. The most important thing is to stop and digest what you have gained in these days.

And the most important thing is that winter is not over yet!
It is not easy to mobilize troops at this time!

Of course, there were also some other remarks mixed in, such as those who were eager to capture Yangzhou, and some who wanted to attack the Northern Barbarians right away. They all looked like impatient children with immature minds.

What is war?
It is not about making great achievements, nor can it be simply summarized as fighting and killing.

War involves engineering, science, civilian science, and even psychology. It is a discipline that combines the strengths of various disciplines, and it is also a war machine that destroys everything.

The tactics he had used before, such as being surrounded on all sides, psychological warfare, and sowing discord, involved many psychological issues.

Of course, his idea was to stay calm. It was not because he was afraid of Daqian, but because there was no need to do so now.

That's right,

There's just no need.

Now, it was Daqian rather than his rebel army that was surrounded.

The Daqian Qishu Righteous Army and the entire Hanzhou were entrenched in the city, but it was just a last-ditch resistance; their destruction was only a matter of time.

Now there is no need for them to risk being taken advantage of by the Northern Barbarians and attack Daqian. It is simply not worth it.

Moreover, everyone now understands that Daqian has run out of luck.

All the lands except Hanzhou are under the influence of his rebel army. Now he has long been the uncrowned king, the only thing missing is a legitimate title.

Since it is just a title, you can get it anytime, there is no need to rush. That will only make the rebels look scared.

The second point is that, just like the previous salt and iron monopoly, the mineral resources must be controlled in their own hands. If Yangzhou had not been conquered before, the chaos in this regard would not have been so obvious.

But since the conquest of Yangzhou, the chaos in this area has become increasingly obvious, especially those aristocratic families who have controlled large amounts of mineral resources for generations have been making frequent moves recently. However, he has never had any good feelings towards those aristocratic families, and his attitude is only one - kill!

After mastering the minerals, he can follow up on the status of armaments manufacturing in real time, which will undoubtedly increase the speed of equipment covering the entire army. It will also be a good thing for the entire rebel army, so why not do it?

The third point is to attach importance to the Northern Barbarian Cavalry. There will be a battle between the rebel army and the Northern Barbarians sooner or later, so we must start preparing now.

As mentioned in the comments section, the Northern Barbarian Cavalry has a natural advantage of being powerful, which cannot be ignored and cannot be caught up with no matter what, so another way must be found.

The most important thing among these is to surpass the northern barbarians in equipment. The Ming Guang Armor of the Ming Dynasty during the Three Kingdoms period is famous enough, and the armor of the Ming Dynasty was improved on this basis. In terms of defense, it is obviously much stronger than the Ming Guang Armor.

Although the Ming Dynasty standard armor was not as good as the Ming Guang armor in some aspects, it was more versatile and simple and could be easily promoted on a large scale.

Like the light bows and crossbows in the hands of the Wu Dang Flying Army before, this set of Ming Dynasty standard armor is undoubtedly also an epoch-making equipment and a trump card in his hand.

Of course, this does not mean that he can just ignore the Wu Dang Flying Army.

After experiencing these things, he also understood that one should not put all his eggs in one basket, and one should always be prepared for both situations.

Moreover, the rebel army now has sufficient manpower, and even if a large number of people are separated to train them into the Wudang Flying Army, it would be more than enough.

Although he is unable to use hot weapons as lethal as firearms now, this lightweight crossbow is sufficient as a substitute. It can play the same role as firearms, and its attack speed is even faster than that of firearms.

Therefore, he had to pay attention to these two aspects, and secondly, he had to closely observe the movements of the Northern Barbarian Army.

However, he thought that even the powerful northern barbarians would not rashly start a war during the coldest time of winter.

If a large-scale war breaks out, I'm afraid we will have to wait until next spring when the flowers bloom.

This period of time was just enough for him to consume everything he had gained during these days. However, I am afraid that this period of time would not be so easy for the little emperor of Daqian.

But this is not something he considered. It can only be said that everything is free cause and effect, and it is all his own fault.

Having made up his mind, he no longer hesitated and called Yuan Jingxin and Li Zhongwu over.

Since Li Zhongwu successfully completed the training task of the Beiwei Army last time, he also planned to give him the task of training the Wudang Flying Army this time.

As for the training of the Beiwei Army, it was handed over to his subordinates. During these major battles, several independent figures have emerged in the rebel army, which can be said to be full of talented people.

Secondly, he gave the task of observing the movements of Daqian and the Northern Barbarians to Yuan Jingxin, who was always good at spying on the enemy, especially the Northern Barbarians.

The Northern Barbarians have become strong in recent years, and he must know how capable the soldiers and generals are under their command. This is information he must know so that on the one hand he can be mentally prepared, and on the other hand he can make preparations in advance.

As for the matter of standard armor of the Ming Dynasty, the leader will be in charge of it personally. After all, as mentioned in the comments, by the Ming Dynasty, various quenching methods had become extremely advanced, which is far beyond the reach of the current Daqian, so this matter is extremely important.

Lin Zhongyun had already had this idea.

The previous foundation of the rebel army was not enough to replace the equipment of all the rebels.

But now, the time has come! .
