As Lu Xianggong said, Asan could not understand how cruel national wars at that level were.

She was even more surprised, how could Zhao Wei say shamelessly that the whole Maya could not last for three months. Maya are not that weak, okay?

Asan even knew that the Song people recruited many slaves from Chibcha and Toltek to form an army. Moreover, during the battle of the Song Dynasty in the West, this army achieved outstanding military achievements.

Even the slave army could become the main force of the Song Dynasty, why should Zhao Wei look down on Maya?

Maya's warriors were stronger than slaves. They were warriors born for the jungle and the pride of Maya.

In Asan's opinion, this was obviously a threat expressed by Zhao Wei to subdue Maya. The Mongols were not that strong. To be strong, they were just a little stronger than the Song people. After all, they defeated the Song people.

Speaking of which, the Song people are the weakest.

Zhao Wei obviously also saw the complicated expression in Asan's eyes and smiled bitterly, "High Priest, don't have any fantasies, you don't understand what kind of war you will face."

Asan frowned, "Can Your Highness, King Ning say it?"

Zhao Wei thought for a while, "The High Priest must have thought that the Mayan warrior is very powerful and not afraid of any enemies, right?"

Asan nodded.

Since everyone has started talking openly, there is nothing that cannot be said.

"To say offending Your Highness, our Mayan soldiers are stronger than those of the Song people. Of course, this is without calculating your shiny weapons."

"But even if you have that powerful weapon, if you really have a life-and-death battle, we will have the confidence to kill your soldiers."

"Haha." Zhao Wei laughed dryly, not knowing how to tell Asan.

To be honest, this kind of confusing self-confidence is a bit like the Eight Banners Army in the late Qing Dynasty. We are more brave and good at fighting than foreigners, and are more fearless in life and death, so we will definitely win!

However, this opposition is not true at all, because the Eight Banners Army's way of thinking is the perspective of cavalry, infantry battle, and fighting between the two armies. They had no idea how naive this courage and fearlessness seemed in front of the gun queuing team and artillery.

"Say that!" Zhao Wei said, "I admit that the individual skills of the Song Dynasty may be really not as good as those of the Mayan Warriors. They are indeed very excellent. They are all kings of the jungle and good at killing enemies."

"But what I call war and the war that the high priest understands are two different things!"

"I can tell the high priest very responsibly that even if the Song Dynasty does not use iron weapons, it will take stone spears and arrows, and fight against the Mayan warriors with the same force, we will definitely win. Moreover, it will be a crushing victory."

Seeing that Asan and the three kings showed disbelief, Zhao Weiyi smiled, "Don't you understand?"

"I will give you an example, just like the present Kirigua, your achievements in astronomy and mathematics than those of the Song people. To be honest, if it were ordinary times, what I needed most was not your warriors, but your sacrificial talents in astronomy and calendar and mathematics."

"Because, it's really strong!"

"But this strength is just a foundation. The Mayans do understand astronomy and mathematics better than the Song people. However, when it comes to the use of astronomy and mathematics, we Song people can abandon you by 108,000 miles."

"We Song people used astronomical calendars to calculate the seasons and apply them to agriculture; they applied mathematics to all aspects of life. The achievements we have achieved are not comparable to those of Maya."

"By the same reason, you have the best soldiers, trained since childhood, come and go freely in the jungle, and are even more fearless."

"But that's just that the ability of a single warrior is relatively strong. Your war is still at the level where the entire army is pressing down, and the outcome is determined by the winner and loss of the warriors."

"And we and our enemies rely more on the abilities of warriors, but the abilities of the generals and the abilities of the country. Of course, this does not mean that warriors are not important, but tactics and strategies are more important than warriors."

"You are useless in this regard, let alone ability."

"So, I dare to say such things, even if we don't consider the weapon factors, we will definitely win Maya. Because in the Song Dynasty, any general or any method is guaranteed that you have never seen it."

"Don't think that your enemies will fight you head-on. I will just talk about a tactic to poison your water source; build an offensive outside your city-state, and only siege not attack; spread rumors in your army that the high priest is a traitor."

"Have you thought about these methods? Have you used them? Can you defend them? How much combat effectiveness can you still have when facing these tactics that do not fight for force?"

"This..." Asan and the three kings did not pop out their eyes when they heard this, "This... is too despicable? The gods will punish them!"

"Haha." Zhao Wei didn't want to say anything.

God? Who cares about God when fighting? As long as you can win, you can't use any tricks? Just by this sentence, you have already lost.

"What I said is just a regular tactic that comes out casually. When it comes to a life-and-death battle, there are too many tricks you can't even imagine. To be honest, you can't stand it."

"not to mention....."

Zhao Wei paused, and said nothing for the rest of the sentence. Everyone was anxious, "What's more?"

Zhao Wei smiled and said, "What's more, there are advantages in weapons."

Looking at everyone, "You don't really think that our Song Dynasty only has a bunch of broken iron tools left? You don't think that the Mongols, like the Song Dynasty, also brought broken iron to fight Maya, right?"

"No way?"

“…”

“…”

“…”

Well, Zhao Wei got the answer from everyone's puzzled eyes. They really thought so!

I thought to myself, no wonder, no wonder less than a hundred people in later generations destroyed the Incas, and Aztec died extremely awkwardly. No wonder hundreds of sailors dared to charge against a Mayan city-state with more than 100,000 people.

It’s not that the Indians are too weak, but that the Indians are too naive.

He casually made a move forward, and the guards who were staring at the back team all the time turned around and came to Zhao Wei.

"Your Highness, what are your instructions?"

Zhao Wei, "Destroy your knife."

The guards did not say anything and gave him a knife.

Zhao Wei didn't talk nonsense anymore. He felt that he was losing money. Now he was just a waste of time. What's the use of saying so much? These people can't turn their heads around.

Throw the guard's knife at Asan, "I'll give it to the high priest!"

After saying that, "Hi!" He ran away with a horse's belly.

Asan took the knife in panic and frowned with the three kings at Zhao Wei and Lu Xiufu who had already left.

They didn't know what the two Song people were selling, "Why are you doing with the guards' weapons?"

When Zhao Wei walked away and returned to the team, the Asan Saint finally focused on the knife.

All I can say is good stuff!

For them, this is a treasure.

Although Asan said it lightly, he also used a tattered adjective. But if he really wanted to keep it in her hand, it was a different state of mind.

Good stuff! Maya can't make it.

Asan heard that this kind of iron knife, which is as bright as silver, is extremely sharp and extremely strong.

If the Mayan warriors can also have such weapons, it would be invincible.

Unfortunately, they didn't have them, and there were actually not many people in the Song Dynasty.

In the eager eyes of the three kings, Asan slowly pulled out the sword.

Then, she was stunned.

The bright silver I imagined did not appear, but...the orange and yellow Zhanqing had a copper touch.

"This..." Asan almost screamed, "Is this copper?"

The three kings were also confused, their pupils shrank and then expanded.

After a while of a daze, King Lanqin suddenly came to his senses, snatched the knife from Asan's hand, and raised it in front of him to look carefully.

"Yes... it's a copper knife!! The Song people can actually make copper knife!?"

The surprise in his eyes was no less than Arke's expression when he saw the bronze knife that day.

Dolinjie had been impatient and jumped out of the sedan chair, rushed to Lanqin, and snatched the knife.

"Show me!!"

After getting it, the expression was also wonderful. I waved it hard for a few times, "So sharp and strong!"

As for Duolin Thorn, people had already run to Zhao Wei's side and finally chased after him, "Your Highness... That knife..."

Zhao Wei glanced at him, "What's wrong with that knife?"

Dolin Thorn: "Is that knife still there?"

Zhao Wei, "Yes! I dare not say that there are more. We still have a million reserves of arms."

"What!?" Dolin Thorn was going crazy, "It's this... it's not difficult to build this knife?"

Zhao Wei: "It's still quite difficult. It's hard to dig copper mines!"

Dolin Thorn: "..."

I didn't know how to answer Duolin Tsui, "This is human words? What does it mean to be difficult to dig copper mines? Is there copper mines everywhere here?"

However, while complaining, Duolin Tsui was completely shocked.

The reason he ran up to ask was because he wanted to know that this kind of copper knife was easy to obtain.

If Zhao Wei said that this knife was very precious and not easy to build, then he would feel at ease.

However, Zhao Wei told him that it is difficult to dig copper mines? There are still millions of them? That would be too scary.

You should know that the main reason why all Indians, whether they were Maya, Aztec, or Cusco, did not take the Song Dynasty seriously was because they lacked iron tools.
