"God Arm Bow, Walking Man Armor, and weapons such as dropped knives, halberd knives, phoenix knives, ring spears..."

Chu Tian plundered the arsenal of the Northern Song Dynasty, and looted the equipment of the Song army, and obtained a batch of divine arm bows, infantry armor, and a bunch of miscellaneous soldiers.

Chu Tian himself put on a pair of footmen armor, with the armor body as the main body, with shawls on the top, hanging legs of the subordinates, and the first pocket, which was extremely heavy.

Soon Chutian discovered the problem.

The infantry armor of the Northern Song Dynasty was too heavy, which was not conducive to maneuvering, and had extremely high requirements on the physical strength of the soldiers.

That is to say, if a battle lasts too long, the stamina of Song's heavy infantry will drop rapidly, and eventually they will lose their stamina and be defeated by the enemy. Even if it is defeated, it is difficult to hunt down the enemy and expand the victory.

However, if Song did not use heavy infantry, it would not be able to stop the cavalry onslaught of Liao, Jin and Xixia.

"This armor is suitable for defensive hand-to-hand combat, not for offense."

Le Yi commented on the Buren Jia of the Northern Song Dynasty.

The heavier the armor is, the better, it needs to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis.

Even in the Northern Song Dynasty, not all armors were complete footmen armor. A complete set of footman armor is expensive to manufacture.

The versatility of the walking armor is poor, and the more practical is the god arm bow.

The God Arm Bow is a kind of crossbow weapon, and the minimum quality is gold, and the best ones can reach the king-level quality.

Chutian divided up 8,000 divine arm bows, most of which were gold-level divine arm bows, and a few were platinum-level.

"Lord Lord, here are two blueprints."

Joan of Arc led her troops to participate in the inspection of the north and south workshops and the bow and crossbow courtyard, and took out two blueprints from her arms.

Chu Tian took the blueprint and was stunned.

One of them is the blueprint for the manufacture of the gold-level divine arm bow, and the other is the blueprint for the manufacture of the three-bow, bed, and eight cattle crossbows.

Chutian checked the finished product of the God Arm Bow's manufacturing drawings.

Name: Standard God Arm Bow

Quality: Gold

Effect: The fixed attack power of 30 decreases with the distance, regardless of the attack power of the troops, with the effect of breaking armor.

Evaluation: You thought it was a bow? Actually a crossbow.

"Standard God Arm Bow?"

This is good stuff.

In fact, what Chutian needs is this kind of weapons that can be mass-produced to equip the crossbowmen.

The higher the quality of the weapon, the more expensive it is, but it may not be practical.

Chu Tian also looked at the attributes of the Eight Bull Crossbow, which was a large-scale weapon that could be used to attack and defend a city. Before the artillery appeared, the Eight Bull Crossbow was already one of the top siege weapons!

Name: Eight Bull Crossbow Large

Level: Eighth-level siege and defense equipment

Attack power: 200506 release 7 arrows at the same time, the attack power decreases with distance

Evaluation: It is said that Xiao Talin, the main general of the Liao army, once used the crossbow arrow of the eight cattle crossbow on his forehead, and was defeated and killed in battle.

Chutian already has a double-bow crossbow, but compared with the eight cattle crossbow, the damage is relatively low.

After possessing the Eight Bull Crossbow, Chutian has an even more terrifying weapon for siege.

"Have you found the manufacturing drawings of the Bumen armor?"

"No."

"Having these two blueprints is enough. As a reward, your return time to France can be shortened by one month."

Chu Tian was very satisfied with the two drawings,

So Joan of Arc's return to France was generously shortened.

But Joan of Arc seemed less than satisfied.

In addition to weapons such as the Divine Arm Bow and Infantry Armor, and two blueprints that were more expensive than the equipment, Chu Tian also divided up a batch of gold and silver as a commission to help Song Qinzong drive out the golden soldiers.

At this time, the national treasury of the Northern Song Dynasty had suffered many fiascoes and was no longer rich. In fact, Chutian did not divide up much gold and silver.

Chutian's territory in the main world is even richer than Song Qinzong's territory.

After capturing a batch of divine arm bows, Chu Tian asked Yan Jiashi to replace them with divine arm bows, and Chu Tian planned to bring the rest of the divine arm bows back to the main world to replace Liang Hongyu's Jianyan crossbowmen.

For Yanjia, the improvement of replacing the divine arm bow is not big, but the divine arm bow has greatly improved the Jianyan crossbowmen.

The Buren Armor, however, was not flexible enough to stick to it. Chutian was hesitant to replace the Yan Armor, sacrificing maneuverability in exchange for defense. This approach had both advantages and disadvantages.

The rest of the lords also received a number of high-quality equipment from the arsenals of the inner city and the palace.

More than 100,000 Han troops have replaced equipment, and their combat effectiveness has become more powerful!

In addition to the equipment above the gold level, there are also a bunch of inferior weapons or some odd-shaped miscellaneous soldiers, enough to arm 100,000 Baojia militiamen.

"We can recruit 50,000 Song troops and 200,000 Baojia militiamen, conduct drills, and improve their ranks. A month later, the soldiers will attack the Jin army on the outer city wall in separate ways to provide cover for us. Then, we will gather our forces and attack them in one fell swoop. The golden soldiers drove down the outer city wall."

"Let Song Qinzong issue a decree to call on civilians to participate in the drill."

"Le Yi, Xie Xuan, Chang Yuchun, and Sun Jian can train 250,000 troops."

The various princes tried to squeeze the war potential of Kaifeng City.

Since they couldn't recruit troops, they could only call 50,000 Song troops and all the armed forces in the city to expel the Jin soldiers in one fell swoop.

All of this must be in the name of Song Qinzong in order to be justifiable.

At present, Song Qinzong, Song Huizong and a group of ministers are locked in a small dark room, and the wooden door is locked with iron ropes to reflect on it.

Song Qinzong witnessed Guo Jing, the celestial master, being killed by Tianyu on the main hall.

"Not enough, that's all, it's not enough, we want to create panic. You set fire to the city, disguised as a golden soldier, and threatened to slaughter the city."

Chutian asked Li Guang to pretend to be a golden soldier. At night, he set fire to the outer city of Kaifeng and shouted to kill him.

The news began to spread in the city that the Jin soldiers were going to set fire to the whole city and slaughter the people of the whole city. For a time, everyone in Kaifeng was in danger.

At this time, Qin Zong ordered to recruit 200,000 civilians for training, as auxiliary soldiers, to counterattack the Jin Army!

The holy purpose spread wildly in Kaifeng City, and the people of Kaifeng City, who had long been angry, were completely angered.

To use civilians for their own use, it is necessary to make them angry and fearful.

Xuandemen was crowded with people, and the water was blocked, and a total of 300,000 civilians were obtained!

The princes of the Han army eliminated the old and young from the 300,000 civilians, leaving only 200,000 civilians, including women with kitchen knives.

The princes of the Han army distributed weapons to the young and strong men, and then they conducted a month-long simple training, mainly to let them learn to order and forbid, and put pressure on the Jin army.

Most of the Baojia militiamen, Chutian did not even expect them to go to the battlefield, as long as they attracted the attention of some of the Jin army when they counterattacked.

According to the ideas of the Han army princes, they want to turn the entire outer city of Kaifeng into a battlefield, fight to the death with the Jin army, and defeat the Jin army in one battle!

Except for the Jin army guarding Tongguan, the rest of the Jin army's main force has come to Kaifeng. If the main force of the Jin army is severely damaged, the Song Dynasty's Guozuo can be extended for a period of time.

The soldiers and horses were trained nervously in the city, while the Jin army on the outer city wall was panicked.

The situation in the city of Kaifeng took a turn for the worse. According to the Jin envoy who returned, the defenders in the city actually hijacked their emperor and openly took the side of the Qing emperor.

Even Jurchens born in remote places know that there is no difference between Qing Jun and rebellion.

After the emperor was placed under house arrest, the Jin army could no longer negotiate directly with the Song emperor, because the Song emperor could no longer promise them anything. They could only negotiate with the Han army princes. starter

However, with the strength of the Han army princes, is it possible for them to negotiate and make compensation?

Wanyan Zongwang has been observing the situation in the outer city recently, and he faintly noticed that the civilians in the outer city were constructing fortifications in an organized manner, arranging horses, sandbags, and bricks on the streets.

If the previous civilians only resisted the Jinbing spontaneously, then behind the current civilians, there are a group of people who are directing them.

The lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty have a very strong ability to mobilize civilians to participate in the war, and if they use it well, they can also play a miraculous effect.

Wanyan Zongwang felt uneasy in his heart. He had realized that the defenders were holding on, and at the same time, he was accumulating strength to counterattack.

The defenders in the city no longer negotiate with the Jin army outside the city, or the negotiations between the two sides have broken down, and only swords are facing each other.

"They are training the Baojia militia, and the people in the city have a lot of complaints against us, we can't sit still!"

Finally, Wanyan Zongwang saw through the strategy of the Han princes.

The hearts of Kaifeng city people are available, this is a force that makes Jin Jun fear!

Wanyan Zonghan said, "It's better to destroy the outer city and kill all the people in the city."

Jin Wushu shook his head: "Slaughtering the city will lose the people's hearts, it will be difficult to convince the public, and it will not be easy to enter the Central Plains in the future."

Wanyan Zonghan didn't take it seriously: "For the resisters, only the massacre of the city can deter the remaining Song army."

Jin Wushu still disagrees.

The generals of the Jin Army were also divided into two factions, and there was no dispute.

The West Route Army was once blocked by the Song Army in Taiyuan for nine months, so they advocated massacres to disintegrate the Song Army's will to resist, while the East Route Army generally advocated Huairou, so that they could enter the Central Plains in the future.

In the end, Wanyan Zongwang rejected the West Route Army's proposal to slaughter the city and chose to attack the inner city in a conventional way.

"Move the crossbow into the city and fight in the streets. At the same time, we continue to send envoys to put pressure on the defenders to surrender. Otherwise, we will set fire to the outer city and raze the outer city to the ground."

Wanyan Zongwang has a group of military generals above the pseudo-king level, confident in the combat effectiveness of the Jin Army, and ready to attack.

The Song army camp is still training troops and horses in an orderly manner, with the main force of the Han army guarding several important places such as Longjin Bridge, and tug-of-war with the Jin army in the outer city to buy time and at the same time attack the morale of the Jin army.

Outside the city of Kaifeng, Zhao Gou, the ninth son of Song Huizong, was appointed as the military marshal of the world, and Zong Ze and Wang Boyan were the deputy marshals. Never dared to march to Kaifeng.

Deputy Marshal Zong Ze had to lead troops to support Kaifeng alone.

During this period, Zongze sent a letter to the general manager of the North Road, the Xuanfu envoy of the North Hebei Road, and the Zhixingren House, requesting a joint army to save Kaifeng, but these people thought Zongze was arrogant and ignored it.

Zhao Gou, the Marshal of the World Army, did not send reinforcements at all. His main force did not dare to move forward, but he split up a side division. He ordered the army in front of the Marshal's Mansion to control Liu Hao. He went south to Junzhou and Huazhou. During the Three Kingdoms period, Liyang and the vicinity of Yecheng were used as suspected soldiers to help Kaifeng.

In the area of ​​​​Huazhou Shiyulin, a cavalry team of 300 people affiliated with Liu Hao's department galloped.

It is said that Bianjing, the capital of the country, has been besieged by the Jin army, and the soldiers and horses of Hebei are not far from Bianjing.

A scout cavalry urgently reported: "Sir, there is a golden army ahead!"

The young general's voice was low and affirmative: "Kill the past!"
