Chapter 1169
Chapter 1139 Defective Heavy Infantry
“Shoot me fiercely, shoot me all the arrows next to my feet, and then prepare to engage in a close fight with the enemy.”
After the orc army entered the firing range, the player responsible for commanding the long-range attack directly issued the command for full firepower.
Following the command of the player commander, the elves behind the shields immediately turned on fire, and a wave of arrows rained down on the orc army.
In the face of the arrow rain falling from the sky, the Ursa Guards soldiers marching in the line did not panic. They did not hurriedly block the oversized shield at the upper side and continued to advance.
When encountering such a shield with a very large protective area, the rain of arrows thrown out basically crashed into the shield and made no effort.
Even if there were some sharp arrows that directly traversed the weird arc and hit the Ursa warrior’s lower body, those Ursa warriors who were shot did not have much reaction.
They saw that they pulled out the arrow sticking in their legs with great disdain, and then they didn’t even look at whether the wound was bleeding, and they continued to move forward as if there was nothing wrong.
For the thick-skinned bear people, ordinary arrows are hard to hit them severely. As long as they are not hit in some fragile vital parts, the pain is basically the same as being stung by a large mosquito. The mouth is almost the same.
“I know what it’s all about. No wonder they rushed here so quickly. They came here lightly.”
After witnessing the enemy’s performance with his own eyes, Sun Junyi, who was on the control tower, suddenly realized.
“Light outfit and simple? Don’t the shields and mace in their hands count as heavy infantry equipment?”
Hearing Sun Junyi’s sudden yelling without head and tail, Sun Junbo glanced at the direction of the battlefield, with doubts written on his face.
“Second brother, you look carefully at the enemy’s rear. Is there still half of the bear army there that hasn’t been dispatched?
You look at those Ursa warriors who are advancing. They wear armor like heavy infantry armor? ”
Seeing that Sun Junbo didn’t see it, Sun Junyi immediately gave a hint.
“It’s really not an iron can, but our orc heavy infantry doesn’t seem to have an iron can to wear.
After all, they are so big, if you prepare those iron pot suits for them, how much fine iron you have to use! ”
Although Sun Junyi has given a reminder, Sun Junbo still does not think that the bear-men heavy infantry of the Dashi Kingdom can afford to wear real heavy armor, because even their main heavy infantry is still wearing heavy armor that cut corners.
In ancient times, fine iron has always been the most important strategic resource, not one of them.
Although the players are modern people, and their prospecting methods have to be more advanced, but due to the backward production conditions in ancient times, it is still very difficult to develop those discovered minerals as soon as possible.
According to the depth of the mine and the surrounding geological conditions, the difficulty of mining each mine is not the same.
Even if a large bonanza has been explored, it will not be able to become rich overnight, and it will take a long time to gradually become rich.
It is precisely because the production efficiency of mining deposits in the game is extremely low, so the production of refined iron is still in short supply, and many forces are seriously lacking iron.
Although the Northern Expedition Alliance is rich in wealth, they once armed some heavy infantry in full armor.
However, with the loss of Shanxi and other areas north of the Yellow River, and the annihilation of a large number of elite troops by the Condor Empire, the Northern Expedition Alliance not only lost the most abundant mineral resources, but also lost a large amount of weapons and equipment.
Now, after being unable to purchase enough iron ore, they have gradually become struggling, and they have to plan carefully for the use of every piece of refined iron.
Originally, with Ye Ziqing and others’ wealthy personalities, they definitely wanted to create the strongest full body armor for all the heavy infantry under their command.
But the current objective conditions really do not allow them to do so, and they simply have no conditions to arm a heavy orc infantry in a full-body armor.
Because the orcs are too tall, it takes more iron to build their full-body armor.
If they use all the fine iron resources in their hands to the orcs, then other armies will have to bare their bottoms.
So they can only choose to cut corners on the orc heavy infantry, use more animal skins, and less refined iron, to create a relatively lighter armor for the orcs.
This kind of cut corner armor is better than lightness. The disadvantage is that the protection ability is much worse than that of the iron can. Once against the real orc heavy infantry, they will suffer a lot in positional warfare.
Even the wealthy, they couldn’t build a real full-body armor for the orc heavy infantry under them. Sun Junbojue didn’t believe that even Shandong did not have a unified Dashi Kingdom with that kind of financial resources.
The Shenying Empire, which occupies many iron ore resources, does have this strength, but Sun Junbo does not believe that Ning Yuan will provide that kind of complex full-body armor to the Dashi Kingdom. Because the Shenying Empire has more troops, I am afraid that they are not even there. It must be enough.
According to Sun Junbo’s perception, the Condor Empire could provide some heavy infantry armor-piercing weapons and shields to the Dashi Kingdom.
In fact, as Sun Junbo expected, the heavy infantry armor provided by the Condor Empire to the Dashi Kingdom was indeed not a full-body armor made of fine iron, but a leather armor similar to that of the Northern Expedition Allied Heavy Infantry.
That kind of leather armor was worn by the heavy infantry of the Condor Army before. Although the main body uses animal skins, the overall weight is still very heavy due to the multi-layer thickening treatment to improve the protection ability.
This time, after Xiong Xiaoguang received Wolf’s request for help, in order to be able to rush over as soon as possible, he not only reduced the amount of shields and maces carried, but also left all the leather armors in the camp. It’s light and simple.
Although Xiong Xiaoguang’s heavy infantry bears still possess terrifying attack capabilities, without the protection of armor, they can only rely on the strength of the bears themselves to resist the enemy’s attack.
Without the armor specially used to protect the body, they can no longer be regarded as a heavy infantry army in the true sense.
Sun Junbo can see this, how could Sun Junyi, who is good at marching formation, fail to see it?
After seeing that Sun Junbo was still puzzled, Sun Junyi smiled and said: “Second brother, your analysis is very reasonable, but what I want to say is not this. What I care about is whether they are heavy infantry in the true sense.
Without the armor that is the most important for heavy infantry, they can only be regarded as half heavy infantry. This is good news for us, because our orc heavy infantry army is complete. ”
