Age of Lords: Invincible from the Three Kingdoms

Su Ran flipped through the dossier.

Lance, spear long zhang eight called lance, horse lance is the spear used on the horse.

Lance is generally divided into infantry lance and horse lance, the rifle is shorter, and the horse lance is used in horse warfare and is longer in length.

Originating in the Han Dynasty, the lance began to flourish with the advent of a large number of heavily armored cavalry.

The horse lance is divided into two parts, the lance blade is 50-60CM long, which is far longer than ordinary guns and spear weapons.

The horse lance was designed to adapt to the increasingly powerful heavy cavalry and armored war horses since the end of the Han Dynasty.

The horse lance has a distinct armor-piercing edge, and the best lance will have eight sides, like the sword.

Ordinary heavy armor can easily break through with a single blow under the impact of a cavalry holding a horse lance.

But on the other hand, the production process of horse lance is also very complicated.

The lance is not at all like the wooden pole used in the rifle, but the main trunk of the finest toughness is taken and peeled into a uniform thickness and glued.

The most is the wood used for the bow, followed by mulberry, oak, and rattan, and the worst is also bamboo.

First, soak the fine scorn in oil repeatedly. The bubble is no longer deformed, no longer cracked, and the first step has been completed.

This process takes almost a year, after which the strips are removed and dried in the shade for several months.

Then glue with high-quality glue paint to form a handful of thick, eight feet long, and then wrap the outer layer of hemp rope. Wait for the hemp rope to dry thoroughly, apply raw lacquer, and wrap it in arrowroot cloth. Dry a layer and wrap a layer until you cut it with a knife, and the mallet makes a metallic sound, but it does not crack, so it is qualified.

Then go to its head and tail, truncated to about six zhang. The front is equipped with a stainless steel lance, and the rear is a red copper lance. Constantly adjusted, the qualified standard is to use a hemp rope to hang at the tail of the lance two feet, the whole Zhangba horse lance can be in mid-air like a weighing rod at both ends without falling. In this way, the military commander can ride on the horse, so that he can keep the tip of the lance forward without the slightest effort.

The resulting lance is light, tough, and strong. Generals can charge with horsepower, or swing them in melee combat.

It's just that the whole lance takes three years, and the success rate is only 40%, so the cost is surprisingly high.

In the era of lords, it doesn't take so long, but it also takes three months, and the money spent is enough to buy a gold-level war horse, which shows its price.

And the power of the horse lance, which cost so much to manufacture, is enough to match its cost, and Su Ran is looking forward to the moment when it appears on the battlefield.

In addition to the chest protector, the armor of other parts is stitched with nail pieces, and the process requirements are extremely high.

Kou Zhun's words were in line with Su Ran's intentions.

He just agreed.

"Then five carpenters and blacksmiths will be sent to prepare for the development of the harness, after all, the harness is more applicable. Su Ran said.

Kou Zhun bowed slightly, indicating that he had written it down, "My lord, Dong Zhuo sent an army of 80,000 with Niu Fu as the main general and Guo Yan as the deputy general, and the current garrison in Shuofang County has been seven days, and it seems that there is no intention of attacking Xihe." But I have already dispatched the old general Zhao Chongguo to guard the town.

Su Ran rubbed his forehead slightly, "I didn't expect Dong Zhuo to actually get involved, so what is the attitude of

the Huns and Xianbei?" "The spies in front came to report that the Southern Huns and Xianbei mobilized troops and horses and seemed to go to Youzhou, and it was likely that they received an invitation from Wuhuan of the three counties to deal with Gongsun Zhan. Kou Zhun said.

The Xiliang army was stationed in Shuofang, and many of them plundered Qianghu, which caused great dissatisfaction.

"Then, Guo Yan probably wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, but he didn't expect Yuan Shao to attack Xihe. Su Ran said.

"That's right, in this way, the Xiliang army will be a little difficult to ride a tiger, and they will probably withdraw after they understand that it is unprofitable. Kou Zhun said.

Li Qi arrived soon, and Su Ran explained the matter, and was about to ask some more information.

A soldier hurriedly entered, "Lord Lord, Taiyuan Battle Report

!" "Speak!"

"The Taiyuan Coalition Army attacked General Li Xiuning's headquarters at night, and the Taiyuan Coalition Army lured General Li's headquarters with a partial army, and General Li was in pursuit and was defeated by the Taiyuan Coalition Army.

Su Ran's brows furrowed deeply, "Is there anything wrong with General Li?" "General Li

is fine, but several generals have been injured, and the current department is retreating to Yuci.

In addition, General Li also sent news that the Shangdang Taishou Zhang Yang led the remnants to join with it, and the Shangdang had been captured by Yuan Shao's army!"

"Now it will be troublesome, Yuan Shao occupies the Shangdang, then it will choke our passage to the south, and it is a fantasy to seek Jizhou. Kou Zhun sighed.

Su Ran also thought about it.

At present, Xizhou seems to be safe and can expand externally, but in fact it has fallen into a dangerous situation.

If you take one wrong step, you may not recover.

"Go and invite Mr. Zhang Liang and the lords to come to the meeting. Su Ran said in a deep voice.

In the chamber, the fires crackled, and the dancing flames cast shadows on the faces of everyone present.

"Ovary, what do you think is the situation now?" Su Ran was the first to speak.

Zhang Liang twisted his beard, and his face was also heavy, "Now the lord seems to be strong, but in fact he is in danger, once the siege is formed, there will be no more catastrophe!"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the people in the hall were different.

Kou Zhun and Yang Sumian sank like water.

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun looked incredulous.

And Xing Ji stood up even more, "Master Zhang, don't be foolish!" "

I hope so." Zhang Liang smiled bitterly, "It seems that the situation is very good now, but the strength of the Xizhou Army is deep in the quagmire of Taiyuan.

If the Taiyuan coalition army is based on the city, the wall is clear, and the field will be cleared in a short time....... Even before the beginning of spring, it was difficult to occupy Taiyuan County.

And Yuan Shao occupies the party, and he will definitely not sit idly by and watch us take Taiyuan, or send troops to harass, or help the Taiyuan coalition army defend the city, then we will be trapped to death by the quagmire of Taiyuan.

At that time, the Xiliang Army and the Montenegrin Army will definitely make some moves. Even, the Southern Xiongnu and Xianbei will not let go of this opportunity to step on it

!" "Lord, the last general is willing to lead an army to attack the party!" Zhang Liao stood up and took the initiative to ask for his life.

"No, our side is weak, and if we attack rashly, I am afraid that we will lose our troops. Su Ran said.

"Lord, but there is an order, go to the soup and go to the fire, and never give up!" Gao Shun also stood up and arched.

"Sit down first, it's not too late to say this on the battlefield!" Su Ran said with a smile.

Gao Shun scratched his head, "Obey!"

Seeing the two of them sitting down, Su Ran continued, "The Xiliang Army and the Black Mountain Army are not too small, only if they solve the Yuan Shaojun of Taiyuan and Shangdang, they will definitely not dare to move." "

Exactly. Zhang Liangdao, "My lord, I wish to be a military advisor, and I will lead a strong army with General Yang Su to break through Taiyuan and Shangdang County!" Su

Ran only hesitated for a moment, "No, I want to go out in person." "

Kou Zhun, I will leave 5,000 people, and you will guard Xizhou and Lishi with the criminal discipline. Pingzhou, or Shuo on both sides of the side but there is a change, you can lead troops to support.

"The rest of the sergeants are all going to Taiyuan, I want Yuan Shao to see the strength of the Xizhou Army!"
