From Soldier To Emperor

The one hundred thousand Song army that started from the border was not Yue Fei's direct Yue family army, but the Tang army of the rebels since the founding of the Southern Song Dynasty and the local recruited militia.

Also known as the miscellaneous army!

However, even the miscellaneous army, who survived the **** battle with Greenskins, can be called veterans, not to mention that they are considered professional soldiers.

Since the Southern Song Dynasty was fought for years since the founding of the Southern Song Dynasty, Song Taizu also advanced with the times and created a professional army similar to the standing army, which is the main force of the Song army.

The richness of the paddy fields in the south of the Yangtze River allowed the Southern Song Dynasty to feed a larger population, and naturally it was possible to form a large-scale standing army.

With the complete collapse of the Tang State, the Southern Song Standing Army, which had accepted most of the Tang State’s legacy, expanded rapidly. The quality requirements are gradually reduced.

After all, an ordinary farmer can use a matchlock, and the cost of training a farmer is much lower than that of a strong soldier!

If you are using cold weapons, whether you are using a bow or arrow or a crossbow, you need a certain physical fitness. After all, opening a crossbow also requires some strength. If the body is too weak, it will be hard to wind...

Not to mention the use of cold weapons and armor. Without a strong body bone, you can't play cold weapons, unless you only take a knife or a spear...

If you only take this weapon, it will be the life of cannon fodder on the battlefield, even a soldier can't be called!

Years of wars have indirectly raised the level of the average combat power of the army. At the moment when the Tang Dynasty civil strife, Richard began to rise in the Western Regions, the militias could still get on the front lines and be cannon fodder. Which of the soldiers now has no hands. How many lives or green-skinned lives?

The era of war is the easiest time to send strong troops, because the environment of the war itself forced those adult men and even teenagers to practice martial arts in order to protect themselves!

Regardless of the south of the East Asian continent being unified by the Song Dynasty, before the rise of the Southern Song Dynasty, the south was the most chaotic place, and various forces attacked and annexed each other. I don't know how many people of Li people were buried in the wilderness for this!

Therefore, there is no shortage of strong soldiers in the Southern Song Dynasty. Even the 100,000 theoretical miscellaneous troops can reach the qualified line of this era in actual combat power, and half of the 100,000 miscellaneous troops are equipped with arquebuses and muskets!

Matchlock guns have only been installed in the Song army in recent years, so there are still many people in this miscellaneous army who still use the assault guns that were eliminated by the main force of the Song Dynasty.

Although the musket is not as powerful as the matchlock with a complex range, it is also a firearm. A shot close to it can also shoot through the standard iron armor.

The armor-breaking ability is even better than the strong bow and hard crossbow!

This is the advanced nature of firearms, even the most primitive firearms are also desirable!

In the same way, with the development of firearms and performance, the armor gradually leaves the soldier. When the armor can't even stop the enemy's shot, it completely loses its meaning. It is better to put on a light military uniform to lighten the load and save energy!

When a group of dozens of Song Army scouts were advancing in the wilderness, several gunshots suddenly appeared. These Song Jun scouts fell off their horses one after another with the close platoon of guns. The remaining scouts didn’t wait to find out the enemy’s reality. Lema turned to flee!

Because they knew they were in an ambush!

When the last dozen or so Song Army scouts escaped the effective range of the musket, dozens of Lancers approached and slammed into the Song Jun scouts who had no time to turn around with their spears!

After a round of staggering, the entire Song army scout team was wiped out!

Those who fired before also mounted their horses and jogged, it was the dragoons who dismounted ahead of time to ambush!

The Dragoons were responsible for ambushes with muskets, and the Lancers were responsible for the final finishing touches. The cooperation of these two elite units took the lead in fighting with the reconnaissance troops of the 100,000 Song Army forwards, and instantly gained the upper hand!

Even if the Song Jun scout spotted the ambushing dragoon in advance, the matchlock in his hand could not cause damage to the dragoon. The reason was the difference in range between the two sides!

If the Song Army scouts directly launched a saber charge, there would be a team of Lancers oncoming. Obviously, the Song Jun scouts were the Lancers who could not surpass the professional charge...

Of course, sometimes Lancers will be replaced by Cuirassiers!

Richard split the dragoons, lancers, and cuirassiers of the brigade into reconnaissance and combat teams, and thus gained an absolute advantage in the frontier reconnaissance contact battle between the two sides!

Let the 100,000 Song Jun completely become blind!

There were not many cavalry in the Southern Song Dynasty. If it weren't for the Southern Song Dynasty to accept most of the Tang Dynasty's heritage, even the horses for scouts would not be enough.

There are not many cavalry in the main force of the Southern Song Dynasty, let alone this one hundred thousand Song Dynasty miscellaneous army?

Therefore, when the 100,000 Song Dynasty miscellaneous army scouts suffered heavy losses, the Song army was no longer able to compete with Richard for control of the field of vision.

Without the right to control the field of vision, it is naturally impossible to figure out the specific position and movement of the enemy, and it is easy to encounter an ambush in the process of advancing.

The generals of the Song Dynasty miscellaneous army are not fools~www.wuxiahere.com~Of course, they don't want to crash in, and they are pioneers, and now they have occupied a large number of state capitals to complete the task in excess, so there is no need to rush for success.

The Southern Song Dynasty intends to fight a long-term national war with Beiming!

After all, in terms of wealth and financial pressure, the Southern Song Dynasty can easily blast Beiming!

Had it not been for Richard to obtain a large number of systematic troops and reduce the front-line professional army composed of indigenous humans to low-cost police troops, Ming Guo’s finances would have collapsed long ago!

It's not bankruptcy or collapse!

The collapse means that even the most basic rations can’t be distributed...

At present, the local security forces of the Ming State are self-sufficient, whether they are garrison or ordinary patrols, and the central government will not allocate a penny. They rely solely on the division of military fields and Shitians to make their own living...

Then the central government of the country has to collect taxes from local governments!

One can imagine how hard it is to be a little brother for Richard...

It's not surprising that when the Southern Song army arrived, the local government surrendered one after another and none of the prefectures and counties stubbornly resisted...

It's all caused by poverty!

However, Richard is not worried about this. As long as his system forces go back, the states and counties will not be able to resist their own soldiers. The bureaucrats above may resist because they are afraid of being liquidated by the Ming State, but the people and the big soldiers below. But not willing to sacrifice oneself!

After all, for the people and the big-headed soldiers, whoever works hard for them is a bird's-eye. After eating the last meal, we must work hard to earn the next meal...

The Southern Song Dynasty government only retained the old system of the Ming State, did not encroach on the land that the people had divided up, and did not promulgate any policies to benefit the people!

Naturally, the people did not have the subjective initiative to work for the Southern Song Dynasty, just because they would not work for Ming.

After all, the Ming army’s prestigious name was created!
