Will-type talents have advantages and disadvantages. When they are strong, they are really strong, but when their faith collapses, they are completely weak. Super gods and super ghosts are almost a thought for a legion based on will talents. And this kind of talent is really strong.
Chen Xi doesn't like things that are difficult to control.
The things that Chen Xi likes are actually very simple, simple, rough, easy to popularize, and relatively reliable in strength, which is what Chen Xi likes very much.
It can be said that the reason why Chen Xi likes the shield guard is simply because the shield guard has a guarantee. The combat effectiveness of the shield guard is not strong among the top legions. Even the top shield guard, that is, the one in Zang Ba's hand.
Yes, you will suffer big losses when facing a top-level army.
However, even so, Chen Xi still chose the Shield Guard as the basic unit of the Han Dynasty, because the Shield Guard has an obvious lower limit for its performance, that is, no matter how unstable the soldiers are and their morale is low, the Shield Guard Corps can still perform relatively reliably.
spectrum of combat effectiveness.
But in other legions, once there is a problem with morale and the soldiers under their command have no fighting spirit, the more they tend to have will-type talents, the worse their combat effectiveness will be.
In fact, after so many years, Chen Xi has finally figured out that the Roman Legion basically follows the quality route, which is actually the result of being forced by the resting Burning Legion.
Although the Burning Legion of Rest can still burn away the talent effects of quality-type legions, its retained quality is still enough to compete with its opponents. In this way, Rome gradually regained the advantage and finally won the victory.
Chen Xi also takes the quality route, but Chen Xi's quality is more geared. The shield guard is positioned as an excellent basic unit on Chen Xi's side. It has strong survivability and defense, and can be very large in scale. In large-scale battles,
, you can rely on your survivability, defense, and scale to defeat your opponents.
To put it simply, a shield guard weighing 160 kilograms has a large scale. When encountering a non-restrained army, relying on its scale, it will definitely not be a disadvantage against dual talents.
The one hundred and eighty kilogram self-weight shield guard has grown into a large scale, and it is a heavy armor defense. The imperial guards have no restraint. They can fight no matter how they want. Even if they cannot defeat the opponent, it is absolutely impossible for the opponent to defeat the shield guard.
As for the extremely rare 200-pound shield guards, as long as they are in scale, have a heavy armor defense, and don't encounter restraint, it is actually very difficult to kill these guys with three talents.
It can be said that shield guards are almost what Chen Xi has been pursuing. They have low casualty rate, high defense capabilities, and almost have super high attributes to deal with any legion. The only shortcoming is that it is true for other countries. The blast furnace of the Han Dynasty is a
If steel is produced from furnace to furnace, it really has little impact.
Of course, the most perfect situation that Huangfu Song boasted to Chen Xi did not happen.
Although logically speaking, Anxi forced Rome to take the route of quality legions, which was actually the first stage of the most perfect gameplay that Huangfu Song told Chen Xi. However, on the one hand, Anxi did not have a god of war from heaven to complete the second stage of professionally restraining quality legions.
, on the other hand, Rome has a strong foundation. Even if it encounters this kind of professional restraint, it may be able to rely on the fourteenth to adjust.
The Han Dynasty originally thought of relying on shield guards to force Kushan to take a purely offensive route. In the end, it failed shamefully because the defense of the shield guards was too strong. For the most basic backbone soldiers, there was no pure offensive route.
any effect.
A pure attack legion with a talent, whether it is sharpness, penetration, piercing, or heavy weapon strikes, will basically not be able to cause effective damage to a shield guard with a self-weight of 160.
On the contrary, because he was too fragile, he was quickly beaten to death by the shield guards, so that before Kushan could embark on the so-called road of restraining the Han Dynasty, this road was cut off.
For this reason, Chen Xi also complained about Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun's unreliability. This is wrong. I don't think Guishang has any intention of changing his talents. He has no intention of turning into a purely defensive force and then letting our Changshui Camp mow the grass. .
Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were speechless. Can I say that your plate armor is too thick? The normal so-called restraint has no meaning at all to you, so that the other party does not think that there is any point in turning into a special lethal force. meaning.
In order for the opponent to be collectively transformed into the special lethal arms that the Han Dynasty wanted, at least the Kushans should be able to see that the special lethal arms are effective against shield guards. But your plate armor is so thick that the opposite special lethal arms are directly renamed into Special scraping unit.
I haven't seen any benefits at all. Of course the opponent will not change their arms. At least if they don't change, they still have some defense. They can somewhat hold back a light shield guard with a talent. If they change their arms, they will be directly hit and killed by the shield guard.
So much so that the plan to force opponents to customize talents that was so loudly announced back then has come to nothing. To a certain extent, the main reason is that Kushan has no money.
If everyone in Kushan could wear wootz steel plate armor and have a weapon made of wootz steel, they would definitely be forced by the shield guards to join the special damage corps, but wouldn’t this be impossible? So Kushan is completely If you are unmoved and see no hope even if you change your talents, then why not use the most convenient talents that you use? You are not that stupid!
Conversely, to a certain extent, it is actually Rome that the Han Dynasty is now restraining...
Chen Xi did not expect this. It was only after the first phase of the battle in Eastern Europe that Chen Xi realized that the large-scale shield guards really restrained Rome.
Because Rome has basically all quality legions, and quality legions basically have no special damage methods. Even if there are a few legions with special damage, it is nonsense when facing the huge scale of the shield guards. For example, twelve thunderbolts are thrown. The penetrating strike of this thing coupled with the substantial force is definitely the top special strike mode.
But can this thing penetrate the Shield Guard Sea? Not to mention that Gao Lan, who is thick-skinned and invincible, is in front of him, but can we just say that the Twelve Eagle Flag can penetrate the Shield Guard Sea?
Obviously, with just a few people like the Twelve Eagle Banners, it is impossible to penetrate even with restraint. And other legions, even if their quality is much better than that of the Shield Guards, their combat effectiveness is very terrifying. However, during the decisive battle in Eastern Europe, Nigel and Huangfu Song The main battlefield with tens of thousands of people fought throughout the day, and the total number of casualties was less than four figures, not counting the injured!
The top legions in Rome are really strong, but because they have been abused by Parthia for hundreds of years, their talents are all about quality, there are no bells and whistles, they just work hard on the basics.
Naturally, they are basically stronger than the Han army's shield guards, but these powerful studies cannot penetrate the Han army's shield guards, which is very disgusting.
It is estimated that after the war in Eastern Europe, the new legions formed by Rome will most likely be legions with will attributes and special attack attributes. After all, Rome is not a fool.
Even if they were very close allies, the Romans had to be careful.
It's just that such a few regiments cannot solve the problem at all. At least the style of painting accumulated by Rome over the past hundreds of years cannot be reversed by the Han army's shield guard threat theory in just a few years.
If you want to turn things around after taking the quality route too much, you can do it with the country's foundation reserves, but personal thinking is not so easy to turn around.
Therefore, Chen Xi was very happy. He did not expect that the killer move he prepared for Guishang would accidentally spread to Rome, and he could perfectly restrain these two unlucky children.
"There is an expansion plan for the Shield Guard. In this case, the Shield Guard will probably include all the better soldiers in training, and the arms will be a bit monotonous." Liu Bei asked with a frown.
"These days, all the legions that can do willpower damage are big bosses. There is no need to treat ordinary shield guards as opponents. It's not like we don't have legions at the same level as them. The Tiger Guards are a pure disaster." Chen Xi.
He spread his hands and said helplessly.
"The Shield Guards do not recruit all young and strong men who are over 1.75 meters tall, but recruit young and strong men who are over 1.75 meters tall and weigh more than 160 kilograms. Even if they have received muscle-building injections, there are still many people
He won't grow up to this level." Chen Xi also understood Liu Bei's worries, so he explained in detail that after all, the history of Anxi solidifying his troops and eventually tricking him into death was not long ago.
Although the shield guard is indeed very useful, if in the future a certain military god develops a will route, so that all soldiers can convert their normal attack damage into will damage, then the shield guard's retreat will be close at hand.
Already.
Therefore, we cannot adopt a single-arms model. For the sake of national security, we must adopt a multi-arms development route with no shortcomings. This is why even though cavalry was the king of land warfare in ancient times, infantry still needs to be developed.
This is not a matter of money. To be honest, when the Han Dynasty reached its peak, the 160,000 cavalry troops sent out during the reign of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty were enough to replace the infantry in the Central Plains, at least in the Central Army. However, even if there were 160,000 cavalry
After leaving northern Xinjiang and severely inflicting heavy losses on the Xiongnu, the central army of the Han Dynasty still retained a large number of infantry. The shortcomings of a single army were really too great.
"I think it is better to consider it comprehensively. Although the Shield Guard is indeed very useful, it is still necessary to consider the comprehensiveness of the arms. The Shield Guard actually undertakes the tasks of the infantry battalion among the five schools of the Northern Army. It can be expanded.
But don't reduce the size of other legions too much." Liu Bei made a rare suggestion in this regard.
After all, Liu Bei is a man who knows soldiers, so he is very worried that Chen Xi's gameplay will lead to the same hidden dangers as An An. After all, An An has learned from the past and everyone is not blind.
"An Xin, Xin Xin, I probably just set up two hundred thousand shield guards, which is actually equivalent to upgrading and strengthening the former infantry." Chen Xi waved his hand and said, he is not stupid, two hundred thousand
Shield Guards Shield Guards are enough, no more shield guards are actually useless.
"By the way, what do you do with those eliminated scales?" Liu Bei still trusted Chen Xi very much. When he heard this, he knew that Chen Xi knew what he was doing, so he asked casually while ordering people to drive into the city.
