Chapter 259
"On the other hand, judging from the analysis of the number of troops, the infantry of the Mauryan Empire today is about six or seven hundred thousand. "
"There should be 50,000 cavalry and about 10,000 elephant soldiers, and in general, the strength is average. "
He Chao talked eloquently and slowly told everyone the pattern of the world, but when he talked about the strength of the army of the Peacock Dynasty, the civil and military officials were a little shocked.
The population of the Peacock Dynasty is almost the same as that of Great Qin, and the area is larger than that of Great Qin, and their army is indeed a bright spot.
There are six or seven hundred thousand infantry, which is not a small number, you must know, before the development of Great Qin, the number of troops was about the same as this number.
And Great Qin also has foreign enemies, that is, the Xiongnu!
The Xiongnu continued to ransack the borders of Daqin, which made Daqin very troubled, but fortunately, with the help of He Chao, the so-called Xiongnu had already become a local chicken and a dog, and they wiped it out.
Today's Great Qin soldiers are strong and strong, and they can be organized into a million-strong army at will, and this million-strong army is not an ordinary army.
Rather, it is composed entirely of elite troops, which can be equipped with artillery, weapons in hand, or long knives made of King Kong.
These are all in this era, it can be described as a super invincible existence, and other countries in the same era are estimated to be still in the Bronze Age, right?
Weapons made of bronze can be compared to weapons made of steel, so you can imagine who can be better in the end.
"Master Hou, my subordinates have a question, and I hope Master Hou can answer it!"
He Chao wanted to continue, but at this moment, a voice came from beside him, He Chao looked over, and then it was a military general of Daqin.
"There's something wrong with the general, but it doesn't hurt to say it. He Chao waved his hand, his posture was calm, and the whole person looked very calm.
"Is this Mauryan Empire's strength so terrifying?? Six or seven hundred thousand infantry is fine, but what kind of existence is that ten thousand elephant soldiers?"
The military general looked at He Chao with some puzzlement, the so-called elephant soldier, he didn't know what it was at all.
You must know that in the whole of Daqin in the past, it is estimated that there were not even elephants.
Although there was a kingdom before, and they came to worship elephants, these people also have a little understanding of elephants.
The elephant is a behemoth, with a burly body and a stout body.
Elephants are obviously more terrifying than horses, and if the Mauryan Empire had an army of elephants, then you can imagine how terrible they were!
Isn't such an army invincible and unscrupulous?
How exactly will this so-called elephant soldier be solved? I'm afraid no one can say a thing or two...
The general's words also spoke everyone's heart, and what they imagined about the elephant soldiers was very terrifying.
If the Peacock Dynasty really had such a terrible army, and the Peacock Dynasty was also very close to Great Qin, wouldn't Great Qin be very dangerous?
"Virtuous son-in-law, do you know what kind of terrifying existence this elephant soldier is, is it really an army composed of those elephants? If that's the case, can our Great Qin resist these armies?"
Ying Zheng looked at He Chao with inquiry in his eyes, and at the same time a little worried.
When Great Qin became more powerful, Ying Zheng had already had the idea of unifying the whole world.
