Valley Emperor

Vol 2 Chapter 2115: The best textbook is war

Some goods were transported through the Mediterranean Sea to Naples, some of the lords along the Mediterranean coast of France who were still resisting the Tatars, and of course, the Spaniards, the big customers.

Among the many goods this time, there are 800 tons of military supplies that are going to be handed over to the Spaniards.

This is only a small part of the many military supplies that Spain has received recently. In July, the Spaniards received more than 10,000 tons of various military supplies, including weapons and ammunition, military quilts, cans, food, tents And so on all the supplies the army needs.

The current Spanish army has become a complete Tang artisan.

Today's Spanish Great Wall defense line, even the Tatars on the opposite side think that this thing is not easy to fight!

Because a large number of artillery pieces from Datang are deployed in these defense lines, including a large number of new 120mm smoothbore guns and a large number of heavy smoothbore guns of 150mm or even more than 200mm, only the eastern coastal defense line near the Mediterranean Sea in the east , The Spaniards deployed more than two hundred smoothbore guns with a caliber of more than 120 mm.

This does not include small-caliber smoothbore guns under 120mm caliber.

The soldiers garrisoned in the defense line used the most advanced fire hat muskets from Datang, and the military uniforms they wore were also made of machine-made cloth imported from Datang. Woolen.

Even the toilets and toilet paper used by the officers were imported from Datang!

How should I put it, there are nearly 200,000 Spanish troops stationed in the Spanish defense line. Except for the people who are still Spanish, all the others are from the Tang Dynasty!

This kind of luxury is unique among the natives of contemporary countries. Many native countries have Tang equipment troops, but the few are only a few thousand, and the more is only tens of thousands. Even the powerful and rich Tatars Jin Guo, their comprehensive Tang mechanized troops, the total number is only about 50,000 people.

And these so-called Tang equipment troops mostly refer to equipment, but they are not like the Spaniards, who use Tang equipment products from beginning to end.

Such 200,000 Spanish royal troops, plus the more than 100,000 American and North African servants they have created, and the garrisoned Spanish Great Wall defense line is not easy to fight even for a large country such as the Tatar Golden Kingdom. of.

The Spaniards can achieve such a luxury, armed with 200,000 Tang equipment troops, naturally they have sufficient background with them, and the homeland has not been damaged by war, and there were colonial benefits in the past, but now they have obtained tens of millions of Tang weapons after shooting the colonies. Yuan funds.

And other countries can't do that.

The Tatar Golden Kingdom has some money, but people are more rational. They also purchase the weapons and equipment of the Tang Dynasty, but only the key ones, such as artillery, they do not purchase all, they only purchase 120 mm New bronze smoothbore gun, other guns they use in-house.

Because the 120mm new bronze smoothbore gun is enough to offset the advantage in range, as for other caliber types of smoothbore guns, they themselves have a lot of them. Although the performance is a little worse, they can still be used.

The same is true for rifles. They also purchased tens of thousands of the most advanced flash cap percussion muskets, but most of their troops still use their own flintlock guns.

Because the Tatars felt that if the flintlock guns were used, they could still produce their own ammunition, and if the flash caps fired the guns, they had to import the flash caps from the Tang Dynasty...

It can be seen from this point that the Tatars are still very cautious. Even if they decide to join the Datang people, they still want to maintain their own industrial production system in order to be self-sufficient. They have been trying to imitate What about the flash cap firing gun?

Well, what they tried to imitate before was actually a rifled rifle, but after so many years, they found that this thing could not be imitated at all, and the raw materials and processing accuracy were completely insufficient.

Now we can only retreat and seek imitation flash cap firing guns. However, the barrel of this flash cap firing gun is actually quite easy to make. After all, in order to control these export muskets, they were converted into line rifles. All are regular cast iron barrels, not high performance steel barrels.

But with the flash cap, they were blinded.

Today's flash hats, even if the Tang Dynasty does not use it, are military secrets within the Tang Dynasty itself. The specific formula and manufacturing process are kept secret. It is not easy for the Tatars to imitate them.

Even if it is imitated, it is even more difficult to mass-produce it on a large scale.

But no matter what, the Tatars did not give up.

This point has already made the National Defense and Security Committee a little vigilant, and has repeatedly asked the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to step up efforts to make all Tatar soldiers use Tang weapons.

Don't let them toss about what they produce and use for themselves.

You have to let them know that they have to farm and herd sheep honestly, and there is no future in building factories and weapons!

The people from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are also straightforward about this. Seeing that it has been half a year since the normalization of trade between the Golden Kingdom of Tatar and Datang, they have only purchased weapons and equipment to arm tens of thousands of people. Most of the troops still use their own flintlock guns. Smoothbore guns~www.wuxiaspot.com~ In this regard, it is necessary for the officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to let the people of the Tatar Golden Kingdom know that you junk are seriously backward and have no value.

How to let the people of the Tatar Golden Kingdom know?

There is nothing more suitable as a teaching material than war.

Soon, the diplomats of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Spain were negotiating with Spain. You spent a lot of money to purchase weapons and ammunition from our Tang Dynasty, and armed an army of 200,000 full Tang weapons.

And we, Datang Arms Trading Company, are a responsible company, and we attach great importance to after-sales service. I ask you if you have any questions. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them, and we will help you solve them.

It can't be said that you have purchased equipment worth tens of millions, and you won't be able to exert your combat effectiveness in the end.

The Spaniard said foolishly at first, We feel pretty good!

However, the officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Tang Dynasty seriously criticized the self-righteous and stubborn idea of ​​the Spaniards, and proposed that whether it is good or not, it must be tested by reality, and it is not enough to just say it with words.

After a friendly reminder from the Tang diplomats, the Spaniards suddenly realized that, yes, they bought so many weapons and ammunition, and spent a huge amount of money to arm such a sophisticated army.

But what is the quality of this army? Is there any problem? You can't tell just by looking at it.

How to do?

Let’s check it out in actual combat, and by the way, we can also combat the arrogance of the Tatars, so that they know that the Kingdom of Spain is not easy to mess with, and don’t even think about crossing the Great Wall of Spain.
