The birth of the Teutonic Knights is nothing to mention to the big man How much impact can a subordinate combat unit of a supernumerary legion have?
Although the Teutonic Knights have the same number of 5,000 men as the four elite troops of the Han Dynasty, their actual combat strength? No one thinks that this legion can be compared with the elites of the Han Dynasty such as the Yulin Cavalry and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
As for what does the name Teutonic mean? Liu Xuan did not explain, but just said casually (it was difficult for him to say the original meaning of Teutonic. The words he said had nothing to do with the big man, but had many connections with the Holy See, so just treat it as a completely meaningless word. ), in fact Liu Xuan once wanted to form the German Knights, but there were not only Germans in the Burning Legion, so he used the Teutons.
Of course, it is also related to his personal bad taste: as one of the three major European knights that later became world-famous, it would be really uncomfortable not to try something out.
After the formation of the Teutonic Knights, the Burning Legion finally had a powerful combat force in Europe. The Roman Empire's army could not defeat the Burning Legion. Now with the addition of the Teutonic Knights, the Roman Empire's army did not even have the chance to escape. None of them - in the past, even if they couldn't be defeated, they could still run away. After all, the Burning Legion was mainly infantry, and with all kinds of equipment and supplies, their mobility was very poor.
Especially in pursuit, the Burning Legion, which lacks fast-moving combat units, cannot expand its results through pursuit even if it wins a big victory.
This situation led to the fact that although the Burning Legion kept defeating the armies of the Roman Empire, they were unable to deal a devastating blow to the opponent. They could only push forward step by step+ - of course, the advantage of doing this was that they were defeated. The region can be very stable, and a group of idlers are busy causing trouble everywhere, basically destroying all traces left by the Roman Empire.
However, if the fight continues like this, the pressure faced by the Burning Legion will become greater and greater. Although the soldiers of the Burning Legion have received Sargeras's teachings, learned more advanced knowledge, and have more powerful combat power, they have no time to learn. After all, it is too short. Even if the strength has improved, the improvement is limited and it is just stronger than ordinary people.
It wasn't obvious after one or two battles, but after the battle, the Burning Legion's advancement speed dropped significantly, especially as the number of enemies it faced became more and more, the enemy's formations became more and more complex, and at the same time, the enemies became more and more hostile to themselves. After getting to know more and more, the Burning Legion finally stopped.
It was at this time that the Teutonic Knights went through a series of reorganizations and entered the battlefield. This gave Sargeras more bargaining chips and more choices in mobilization. This allowed Burning to The legion took another step and continued to move forward, instead of being stuck in that place and competing with the huge legion of the Roman Empire.
If this continues, maybe the Burning Legion can completely destroy the Roman Empire, and the time it can consume and its own damage will not be low. Although the continuous victory has not had any bad effects within the Legion, there are still rumors coming from the Han Dynasty. The news made Sargeras feel the pressure.
¡°His Majesty requires that all wars must end within ten yearsincluding yourselves!¡±
Ten years may seem like a long time, but the Burning Legion has to face more than just enemies that can be dealt with in one or two battles.
The huge Roman Empire, even if it is not at its peak now, has a huge territory and a standing army of more than one million, which is not an easy problem to solve.
Fortunately, Sun Shangxiang, who was responsible for delivering the news, told him a pretty good news: "In order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the Burning Legion, His Majesty asked you if you need anything. As long as you ask it, the court will satisfy you as much as possible." The requirementswhether it is weapons and equipment or food and grass supplies!"
Sargeras¡¯s eyes lit up. Although when he formed the Burning Legion, the support from the big man was very sufficient, but if you really want to count, there are many things that the big man did not give to him, such as that kind of war weapon: cannon!
"I need cannons! Lots of cannons!"
With the improvement and development of Dahan's technology, the types of cannons are no longer simply sunset cannons. There are also deadly moon cannons that specialize in precise strikes, rocket launch arrays, and laser cannons. These weapons are collectively called cannons. We have begun to equip the entire army.
Although he did not use it when he wiped out the Huns and the Northern Wei several times before, Sargeras, who has been living in Luoyang City and devoted himself to learning all kinds of knowledge, cannot ignore the power of this weapon.
The Han Forbidden Army was not used because they were strong enough to destroy the enemy even without those things, but the Burning Legion under his command could not do this - maybe in a few decades, the Burning Legion's The combat power is alsoIt can be improved, but the problem now is that time is limited.
Since the quality of individual soldiers cannot be improved in a short period of time, then we should think of ways to improve the equipment - this is Sargeras's idea, which is very practical and very correct.
Sun Shangxiang nodded: "You make a list and I will take it back to His Majesty!"
Although Sargeras didn't know Sun Shangxiang's identity, he knew that this woman was very valued in front of the emperor. Although he didn't know whether this woman was His Majesty's woman, he could just treat her as one for now.
Quickly making a list of the things he needed, Sargeras immediately remembered that the territory of the Roman Empire was distributed along the Mediterranean coast. If the Han Navy could be involved, it would be easier to fight.
"By the way, can you please send a naval warship to the Mediterranean Sea?"
Sun Shangxiang glanced at him. As a general, Sun Shangxiang certainly understood what Sargeras was planning, but she couldn't make the decision, so she could only reply: "I will ask your Majesty!" He took the order and left.
After Sun Shangxiang left, the Burning Legion launched a crazy attack in the following days. This was Sargeras's statement: We will never be lazy. Even if His Majesty does not send him what he needs, he will continue to fight for the big man. Work hard for your dominance!
In fact, this information could not be hidden from anyone, and Sargeras did not want to hide it from anyone. When Liu Xuan learned the news, he even laughed: "I ignored it. After all, the Burning Legion was formed for a short time. It seems to be much more." Send some weapons over!"
By the way, you can also try out the actual power of many weapons on the battlefield.
Over the years, the wars of the Han Dynasty have basically been quite experimental in nature. Of course, this time is not to be missed. If you want to bring out the power of weapons and equipment, the best environment is to conduct experiments when the quality of the soldiers on both sides is not much different. Only in this way can the power of the equipment be shown.
Although the Burning Legion is stronger than the soldiers of the Roman Empire, the number of soldiers in the Roman Empire is several times that of the Burning Legion, so they cancel each other out.
"In this way, the thunder cannons, sunset cannons, and rocket launch arrays will all be sent to the Burning Legion in proportion. In addition, a batch of newly made crossbows and arrows will also be sent!"
"Where's the armor?"
The person sitting below taking notes is Huang Chengyan. As the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, he is responsible for these things. It is said that the old man has created a lot of good things over the years. Although it has not become popular, he has received praise and encouragement from Liu Xuan - he understands that he must broaden the creativity of these people in order to continue to prosper. Counting on himself, this is what this big man will look like if he is exhausted.
"Sothe problem with the navy?"
Liu Xuan is also hesitating about this matter. It stands to reason that if the navy is sent there, the Roman Empire will have absolutely no resistance. But the current situation is, where should we send it from?
Gan Ning is now escorting a group of soldiers and horses to attack eastern Australia, while Yu Jin is leading a group of soldiers and horses to attack northern Australia. Zhang Yun serves as the vanguard under Yu Jin. On weekdays, he is also responsible for guarding the waters around Australia. When he saw Wu's navy, he was A crazy thing.
At present, the naval generals that Dahan takes the most shot is these a few. If you calculate it later,
"Your Majesty, instead of sending the navy, you can send the air force!"
Those spaceships have really been assigned to the Air Force, and when he mentioned this, Liu Xuan remembered: Yu Linqi happened to be fine!
"In this case, let's send five spaceships and Yulin Cavalry to Europe to help in the war!"
With the power of the Yulin Cavalry, even if it destroys a city, it won't take long. The Burning Legion will have a much easier time with the help of the Yulin Cavalry.
What¡¯s more, there are five spaceships helping out! These five ships are not the experimental warships that were used to fight the Northern Wei Dynasty. Not only are these five spaceships larger, the armor is stronger, the firepower is more fierce, and the speed is faster. More importantly, these five spaceships have The ability to fight in space.
Although it is still not a formally finalized product, it can deal with a Roman Empire
"Where are the generals?"
"Let Cao Cao and the others discuss and decide. Just tell me if you decide!"
It¡¯s not easy for him to select generals in person every time, because he can¡¯t know all the generals. What if he really buries some talents? In comparison, those who are in contact with generals every day are more suitable for this kind of thing.
For example, this time, no one Liu Xuan recognized among the names reported. The only one he recognized was that the leader of the attack on Europe was Deng Zhi.
"Does Your Majesty think this arrangement is good? "
Liu Xuan waved his hand, and Liu Xuan didn't care. What he cares about now is, how long will it take? Can the war on all sides end?
As soon as he asked this question, Guo Jia happened to be standing by and answered: "I estimate that in three years at the earliest or in five years at the earliest, the four-party war will come to an end!"
