The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin
Chapter 2264: Zhao Jun's Bicycle Troops
"The military exercises in the north are about to end. Then they will go into battle." Wang Jian said to Yang Duanhe.
"Well, I know this, but, I think, is it right to send someone to specially arrange them. After all, an army of tens of thousands of people, ours is the coalition headquarters, if there is no one to take care of it, it may happen. It's a big mess." Yang Duanhe reminded.
"I have already thought of this. I have sent a telegram to the king. You will be the commander of the Northern Mobile Force." Wang Jian said.
"This, I feel a little bit." Yang Duanhe said unexpectedly.
"Does it feel surprising?" Wang Jian asked.
"Yes, I didn't tell you about this." Yang Duanhe said.
"But I know about this." Wang Jian said.
"The north are all divisions and brigade-level combat units. They cannot form combat effectiveness in a short period of time. This is very bad for us." Wang Jian said.
"Yes, judging from the latest report, our troops cannot advance quickly within a certain period of time, and the running-in of the troops is very bad." Yang Duanhe said.
"So, we need a very experienced commander to accept this matter, otherwise, our rear detour tactics will not be able to solve it." Wang Jian said solemnly.
"I understand this." Yang Duanhe said.
"Okay. When the order comes down, you can accept this matter as soon as possible. There is not much time for us." Wang Jian said worriedly.
"Then, I'll go first. In this case, at least, we can save some time. If we wait until the order arrives, I'm afraid we will waste a lot of time." Yang Duanhe said.
"En. Well, I'll give it to you." Wang Jian said with Yang Duanhe.
"Wow!" At this moment, a group of Zhao Jun soldiers walked past the coalition headquarters pushing their bicycles. The headquarters is set up on the main street of Guzhu with well-developed traffic. All combat troops have to pass through here, and there is a large amount of materials.
"What kind of unit are you?" Yang Duanhe asked Zhao Jun curiously at this time.
"Report sir." When Captain Zhao Jun saw Yang Duanhe's military rank on his shoulder, he saluted.
"We are the 12th Infantry Regiment of the Zhao Kingdom, the 3rd Fast Combat Battalion." The captain introduced.
"Oh. What's your name?" Yang Duanhe asked curiously, because what he saw was that this Zhao army was equipped with bicycles. At least about one hundred kilograms of heavy objects were reproduced on the bicycle. This has far exceeded the soldier's payload.
"Sir, my name is Zhao Fangming. The third battalion, the twelfth bicycle company. Company commander." Zhao Fangming introduced.
"En. Can you introduce your combat troops, especially this kind of bicycle?" Yang Duanhe asked.
"Sir," Zhao Fangming replied. Wang Jian also walked over at this time and looked at Zhao Jun's equipment in detail.
"Sir, the bicycle we are equipped at this time has the advantage that it can adapt to most roads and can carry more materials. And the speed is much faster than walking." Zhao Fangming introduced.
"Oh. How much weight can it carry?" Yang Duanhe asked.
"The standard is one hundred and fifty catties. The speed is 1.5 times faster than walking." Zhao Fangming introduced.
"How many bicycles do you have?" Yang Duanhe looked at the materials on the bicycles. Although the standard says one hundred and fifty catties, at least one hundred and eighty catties. This number is far more than that. The walking capacity of the soldiers of the Qin Army has improved. The heaviest bag of the soldiers of the Qin Army should be controlled at about fifty kilograms, otherwise, the soldiers would not be able to carry out tactical actions at all. Soldiers can fight effectively with light clothing. However, Zhao’s bicycle unit has a load of more than one hundred and fifty catties, which is more than three times the material capacity of the Qin army. This shows that the Zhao’s bicycle unit can far exceed the Qin army’s mobility and combat capabilities. This surprised Yang Duanhe very much.
In fact, this is Zhao Jun’s secret weapon. Zhao Jun is different from Qin Jun. Qin Jun owns the entire northern grassland and naturally has no shortage of horses. However, the supply of forage to horses poses a severe challenge to Qin's logistics supply. This requires the Qin Army's strong logistics supply capabilities, because the quantity of materials transported is a huge amount. For this reason, the Qin Army's combat plans are all based on the convenient logistics supply lines. For example, rely on the transportation capacity of the railway to complete.
But Zhao Jun’s situation is different. Their logistical supply capacity is very poor. Only a few areas can have railways, and most areas do not have railways. Moreover, the highway system is not very developed. Their logistical transportation method relies on traditional two-wheeled carriages. The carriage capacity of the carriages is also very limited. If a large-scale army is fighting, this will probably cost a lot of financial resources. carry out. However, it takes a certain amount of expenditure to support a small combat unit. In order to reduce the pressure on Zhao Jun’s logistics as much as possible, Zhao Jun thought of using bicycles, because bicycles require soldiers’ physical strength and carry far more supplies. More than walking infantry, therefore, Zhao Jun’s army is equipped with a certain number of bicycles. This is not only Zhao Jun, but also such bicycle troops in the South Korean New Army. In fact, these bicycle troops have exerted their due combat capabilities.
"Return, sir, not many. When we came out, most of the bicycles in our army were concentrated in our hands. Don’t look at our battalion called Bicycle Camp, but in fact, our battalion has only one company equipped with equipment. Bicycles, most soldiers still don't have such equipment. This time we are fully equipped to fight such a battle." Captain Zhao Fangming replied.
"So it's like that." Wang Jian nodded and said. Wang Jian knew that Qin’s best bicycles were made of steel, but such bicycles were expensive, and it was obviously impossible for Zhao Jun to equip them with such equipment. What Wang Jian saw was that Zhao Jun was equipped with ductile iron pipes, not steel. However, such bicycles can also meet their needs. After all, such a price is not expensive after all, and Zhao Jun can also generally accept it.
"Okay. Go ahead." Yang Duanhe said after getting to know it. Zhao Guo's situation has already let them know. Zhao Jun’s bicycles are not equipped with large-scale equipment. The reason may be that they cannot support the small military expenditure.
"Yes, sir." Captain Zhao Fangming led his combat troops away at random. Their bicycles made a nasty metallic noise.
