Civilization of Azeroth: Start the Great Pyramid
Chapter 44: combat readiness
Li De named this special machine "Jenny Machine" and assigned the School of Engineering to develop a new type of spinning machine on this basis.
After doing this, Li De wanted to visit Taxiro at night. But thinking that the time is a little late, the old troll also needs a rest.
It was only on the second day that Talanji and Takshiro were invited to attend the regular meeting of the Huanhai Protector. After the meeting, Haggard immediately started to form a troupe of about 30 people.
Twenty of them are Terran. Almost all of them have been in contact with theatrical performances or lovers of literature and art when they were in Stormwind City. Among the remaining ten, seven are trolls who are good at telling fairy tales, and there are three others. A goblin who is good at making fireworks.
Such a troupe, plus a dozen people selected from the monastery, became the first students of the History Academy. Take lessons from Reed and Takshiro.
The teaching material used to teach the course to these students is a brief history compiled by Li De in the Zanchuer History Museum with the help of Takshiro.
In this brief history of less than 100 pages, several major events are mainly recorded: the ancient guardians of the Titans, the rise of the troll empire, the night elf empire and the great schism, and the rise of the Terran Thoradin the Great.
The records about the Guardians of the Titans belong to prehistory in Zandalar, and even the Loa know little about it. Many of the contents are just patchwork and guesswork. It would be good to tell a smooth story.
As for the other parts, they are all recorded in the ancient Zandalar records, with relatively reliable accuracy.
In fact, Takshiro was very dissatisfied with Li De's behavior of making a small booklet to make things right at first, thinking that Li De was too pragmatic. Such a booklet is obviously for the shallow historical science popularization service, and not There is no attitude towards studying history.
But after coming to Tanaris and meeting the students of the first phase, Takshiro could only approve Li De's approach. The historical foundation here is too poor, and there is absolutely no environment for crunching tomes.
In fact, many disciplines are quite simple and rudimentary in the early days. Fortunately, the more than a dozen students selected from the monastery have a relatively high level of education. Takshiro only hopes that this booklet can give them the enlightenment of historiography and lead them to the path of real history research.
Takshiro is an external honorary advisor and will not stay here for too long, so he will formulate a thorough teaching plan and personally teach more than a dozen students from the monastery.
As for the troupe taught by Li De, their courses are much simpler. The four parts of history on the textbook are roughly divided into:
[Genesis, Guardian's Infighting, Tyr's Fall]; [Rise of Zandalar, Zerg Raging, Troll's Rebellion, Troll Empire]; [Birth of the Night Elves, Arcane Empire, Burning Legion Invasion, Sundering] ; [Origin of Human Race, Thoradin and Amani, Dalaran Independence, Seven Kingdoms Pattern], these fifteen subsections.
If you simply go through these fifteen small events, you won't even be able to spend two days. On this basis, Li De focused on several events in detail.
He did this for only one purpose, which was to utilise the troupe to schedule three plays within two weeks. To this end, Li De provided William, the head of the troupe, with quite favorable conditions, including but not limited to a rehearsal venue, an allocation of 2,000 gold coins, and 50 extras.
You must know that 20,000 gold coins can buy a Tier 6 battleship. This 2,000 gold coins is a huge sum of money, which is enough to see Li De's determination to support the development of literature and art.
……
Under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man. Li De made such a condition, and William naturally wrote the script and rehearsed.
Dramas with historical themes often have more advantages than other themes, because they have specific historical events as the original prototype, which can save a lot of things in the plot and characters. On the basis of respecting history, as long as you can write wonderful lines, Coupled with a reasonable program arrangement, there is a high chance of excellent works.
Built on the desert, Hanhai Duhu has very few entertainment methods. Under such favorable conditions and conditions, if you can still produce a work that overturns the car, it is really not something that ordinary waste can do.
……
Apart from the troupe, Li De is most concerned with the production of military supplies.
The time to dispatch troops to the Eastern Kingdom is set in a month, and the number of troops to be dispatched is set at 1,300, specifically 1,000 sand trolls, 150 humans, and 150 goblins.
There is no way to do this either. The population limit of Hu Hai Du Hu is here, and 1,300 people is already the limit to ensure Du Hu's security. Even so, of those, 100 belonged to the orderlies.
Moreover, it was thanks to the Zandalar ally that they were able to send troops. In addition to the name of the participating countries, Zandalar also provided ten sailing warships and some military supplies.
If it weren't for this, if Han Hai could protect himself, he wouldn't be able to send troops. Only as Li De planned at the beginning, after the war in the Eastern Kingdom has settled, then go to absorb the refugees.
It is because of this situation that Li De pays special attention to the production of ordnance. The number of troops sent is already so small, it is necessary to ensure that every soldier has combat effectiveness, and there is no need for more elite soldiers, one wins ten.
Therefore, the equipment of the Vast Sea Protector's soldiers is completely different from any current forces in Azeroth.
First of all, there are as many as three layers of armor: the body is lined with a layer of cloth, on top of which is a layer of light scorpion shell armor to protect key parts, and the outermost layer is covered with fully armed armor.
Among the three layers of armor, the core is the scorpion shell armor specially produced in Tanaris, for which Li De is even a little fortunate for this foresight.
Back in the days when he was still living in tents, the armor maker Adler started to develop new armor. After the new Gadgetzan was completed, while Port Hope was still under construction, Adler's armor workshop was the first group of craftsmen to move into Gadgetzan.
Since then, a batch of new armors have been accumulated in the past six months or so. So now it can be guaranteed that all 1,300 soldiers, including orderlies, will be able to wear the new armor before sending troops.
As for the outermost armor, in fact, the goblins and the human race provided their own dry food. The hundred elite soldiers directly under Li De wore the plate armor of the Storm Kingdom; the goblins also had quite mature engineering armor.
Only 1,000 sand trolls are unarmored. Most of the trolls in Azeroth, except for "rich and handsome" like Zandalar, can only use wooden boards threaded with ropes to protect key parts.
Therefore, the armor arrangement of the sand trolls has become a big problem, and the current production level of Huanhai Duhu is completely unable to fill this big gap.
Although he has no ability to fill the gap, this problem must be solved. Troll soldiers are the main force, and in any case, they can't be discriminated against in terms of equipment.
Fortunately, Li De had already thought of this issue during the Zandalar negotiation stage.
In this war, Zandalar, as a belligerent country, did not have to land to provide troops, but chose to make Huanhai Du Hu a "mercenary". Is it okay to lend 1,000 pairs of armor to the sand trolls? Li De promised that after the war, all these armors would be returned in full, so that the sand trolls had armor to wear.
After the armor problem is solved, the next thing is the weapons listed by the soldiers.
In fact, according to Li De's ideal design, he wished that all soldiers could be equipped with muskets that represent the trend of future warfare. However, the goblin's musket still has problems in reliability, and the operation steps are still very cumbersome. Soldiers rashly replace the weapons of different eras under the condition of insufficient training, and the combat effectiveness will be sharply reduced.
Therefore, except for the goblin musketeer, the other soldiers are still using cold weapons, but even the cold weapons have been improved.
The most important thing in Tanaris is high-quality minerals. Under Li De's personal consultation, the blacksmith Argus produced a batch of new weapons.
The hundred elite soldiers of the human race are equipped with stainless steel long-handled swords. This weapon is specially designed to deal with large people. Brad holds such a big sword and can even cut the crystal scale monitor lizard in half with one sword!
Sand trolls are mainly hunters and shadow shamans~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The commonly used weapons are spears and crossbows. Thanks to the technology of Terran and Goblin, their weapons can use higher quality materials, all of which are replaced with steel spearheads, steel arrowheads and monitor lizard bowstrings.
In addition, the food processing workshop also produced a batch of compressed military rations. The Huanhai Protector has no arcane spellcasters. Otherwise, if the army makes magic bread, it can also relieve some logistical pressure.
Of course, even if there are spellcasters in the future, Li De will still vigorously develop the food processing industry. After all, when he was still in Stormwind City, Li De had eaten magic bread, which was too unpalatable...
And compared to the work of rolling bread, the caster has more important things to do. Making the caster the quartermaster is completely overkill.
Weapons and equipment, logistics and military supplies, these problems have been well resolved. The soldiers are now in intensive training. It can be said that everything is ready and only the east wind is due.
As long as one month later, the second motorcycle race in Shining Plains is over, and Li De will lead his troops to the expedition.
The reason for this arrangement is not only waiting for the scorpion armor to be fully equipped, but also for confidentiality and security reasons. There will be a large influx of foreigners in the locomotive competition, and the presence of soldiers can ensure that there will be no vicious security incidents.
And there are goblins who can travel, most of them are human spirits. If the fact that Tanaris's troops are lacking is detected, it is very likely that they will find out that the Huanhai Protector is involved in the orc war.
The hot sand king of Kezan was originally a big speculator with two bets. Once he was informed of this, if the information was disclosed to the orcs through the goblins of Stranglethorn Vale, it would bring great danger to the expedition team. .
Even if the probability is very small, Li De will not bet on the safety of the team.
