It is precisely because the Guanlong area of China, that is, the six major military towns in the Northern Wei Dynasty, are places of that kind. Han desperadoes and cannibal Hu tribes are rampant everywhere, but this place is not so remote that it is really far away from civilization——
As a result, it is not only easy for heroes to appear, but it can also snowball. After all, although there are heroes in the area of Anxi Military Town, they have no cultural influence, so it is always difficult to achieve anything.
It can't be a big deal, but it doesn't prevent others from creating big holes for you. It's one thing to manage and prevent this kind of thing, but when the matter comes, the Tang Dynasty's army supply line cannot accept being threatened by any force.
Therefore, since the steam train can be equipped with so much, it is of course best to install more artillery.
However, after all, these are things that have only recently been put on the agenda for discussion. Whether to move the tool and how to move it, and whether there are any more cost-effective alternatives, Shenzhou itself has not yet come up with the results. Naturally, Li Jing would not have thought of it.
The Romans in front of him were already.
So when the news was reported to him, Li Jing almost broke his thigh with a slap - if this thing happened to the Romans, then the Tang Dynasty would have a big problem!
The Romans used steam trains to carry artillery to patrol back and forth across the border. Of course, it was difficult to cause direct damage to the main force of the Tang Forbidden Army.
In this way, it is difficult for Datang's raiding operations to encounter the truly valuable military targets of the Romans. This "valuable military target", whether it is a Roman military camp, a food storage point, or something else
Any target, such as the factories that the Romans were also working on, must be surrounded by steam train tracks.
It would be very difficult for Datang to rush in and destroy these things on the other side.
First of all, if the army wants to break through head-on, it will definitely be asking for trouble. It is most likely impossible to forcefully charge past the terrifying power of the artillery, and there is a high probability that the army led by you will be defeated.
This means that the Alpine barrier that the Romans had lost has been re-established!
But according to the original cannibalization plan, this matter is obviously not easy to do, because the important targets are hidden within the borders of the country along the lines of the steam train. If the elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty want to go up and cause trouble,
Instead of transporting artillery, they directly transport troops to cooperate with the garrison originally stationed nearby to encircle them. Wouldn't this still lead to serious consequences?
Looking at it this way, this Roman has turned into an iron bastard again!
At this time, Li Jing also began to be confused. How could the Romans even build steel cannons and steam trains? Do these people have any special information channels to understand the craftsmanship in China? But this does not seem to be the case.
It should be,
No matter how skilled the Romans were, at most they only knew that steel cannons were cast from clay, and that steam trains were complex machines, but what principles were used?
The kids may not be able to figure it out either.
So after thinking about it, Li Jing suddenly remembered what Li Sheng once said.
The civilization system of the Romans, etc., were all inherited from ancient Greece.
Many years ago, there were already many sages and sages, and there was a real accumulation of "science".
From this point of view, things don't seem strange. In addition, with the rise of maritime trade, it is not that difficult for the Romans to find a few loyal ministers and filial sons from China to work for them.
Although thinking of this, Li Jing couldn't help but subconsciously think about who the loyal ministers and filial sons the Romans were looking for were.
But the matter at hand had to be solved immediately. What to do about the steam train carrying artillery? Li Jing still couldn't help but have a headache.
This time, Li Jing didn’t have a headache for too long!
Before the pain could get any worse, His Majesty's envoys arrived from the east with a large amount of supplies. As soon as this batch of supplies arrived, Li Jing was also shocked.
At this time, only two months had passed since the last time the imperial court delivered winter clothes and grain.
How could it happen in such a short time?
This doubt did not last long. Li Jing looked at the countless carriages transporting supplies parked in the ice and snow on the frozen wilderness mud, and turned to look at the envoy in confusion.
This envoy was no ordinary person this time, but Duan Lun, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, who arrived in person - as soon as he saw this person, Li Jing knew that what the DPRK sent this time must be extremely important.
Why exactly is it important? How important it is, but I can't quite understand this. Looking at me with such pitiful eyes, I didn't give any explanation. I just had a kind smile on my face from beginning to end.
Li Jing couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
You are already old, but you are still playing this?
As the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, you are nothing more than a piece of paper. If it weren't for His Highness's contribution over the years, you would have been completely free to make mistakes, let alone meritorious service to the imperial court.
While Li Jing was greeting Duan Lun, he also smiled awkwardly and walked towards the carriage - and as soon as Duan Lun caught this awkward smile, he couldn't help but get angry. Duan Lun was also a big shot in the court and a famous minister in the early Tang Dynasty.
, and ended up being treated like this.
So he came to the carriage. Just when Li Jing was impatient to wait and wanted to untie the tung oil cloth to inspect the goods in person, Duan Lun coughed lightly and said, "To be honest with Duke Wei, the carriage that arrived this time was not
Food, grass and winter clothes are something else. Because the imperial court has seen the report from Duke Wei, Your Majesty is deeply aware that it is not easy for Duke Wei to lead the army outside, and the Roman barbarians are unruly and untamed, so he specially prepared this item for Duke Wei."
"oh?"
Li Jing originally thought that Duan Lun, a cunning scholar who didn't know how to fight, would put this riddle to show off. Although he felt that Duan Lun's appearance would probably be a big deal, he didn't hesitate to complain. However, when Duan Lun said this, Li Jing
I couldn't help but open my eyes wide, because,
What does this mean? Why do I always feel like there is some kind of weapon here?
weapon!
At this point in time, it was no longer a critical juncture, because after Rome's defeat, the Tang army took advantage of the situation and stationed in the area east of the Alps. In a sense, it was considered a pursuit of death, although in fact it was
Chasing death and chasing west, and this day has been several months since that time - in other words, if the Romans could take any offensive against the Tang Dynasty's unstable foothold in garrisoning in such a radical position, they should do it
