The training of newly recruited soldiers in the Shizi Camp is very simple. The first point is to learn to take care of the horses that they depend on for survival.
From feeding concentrates to lighting wormwood and fly flies at night, this process lasts for two or three months, trying to master every move of the horse.
The second step is to learn to ride a horse. Even without a saddle, you must be able to draw your bow from left to right while galloping.
This is just the first step of training. Later, there will be more complex formations and gun charges.
Obviously those new recruits who are still playing polo on the field don't know that in the next six months, there will be endless training subjects waving at them, which will definitely torture them physically and mentally.
Chen Tian felt relieved and left the 3,000 horses in the care of Wei An. It was he who had followed him and led 200 cavalry in a desperate charge, killing seven or eight thousand heads in one night.
Of this remaining cavalry, all those who survive are veterans who have been trained for hundreds of years, and they are also the soul of the Shizi camp.
"If you need anything, just ask the court." Chen Tian turned to look at Wei An and said seriously, "Yongtai City's first heavy cavalry will be born in your hands. Don't worry about financial resources."
The Yongtai Army is undoubtedly the elite in the Cangxi Northern Territory, with sharp swords and thick armor, but how can the Dragon and Tiger Cavalry under Yin Jianyuan not be elite?
The last time they were ambushed in Zishui, they took advantage of the terrain and numbers, but in the end they won a tragic victory and nearly the entire army was wiped out.
Because the restraining effect of cavalry on infantry is so strong, when both sides have similar equipment, if you want to win, it depends on who is less afraid of death.
However, Chentian was in urgent need of manpower, and at the same time, the cost of pensions for soldiers was very high. One soldier killed in battle could at least provide Yin Jianyuan with a dozen servants to train.
Now that we have the conditions, we should make up for the shortcomings of the Yongtai Army no matter what, and try our best to implement the construction of the cavalry team.
"Reporting to the Lord God, the Mu Pavilion also attaches great importance to the Shizi Camp of our headquarters. Panda did not wait for the general to speak, and he has already sent a large amount of supplies, and even a lot of spiritual pears. He is very considerate." Wei An answered with fists in his hands.
"If we insist on talking about demand, I will dare to ask the gods to purchase more horses. Three thousand cavalry will require at least a total of nine thousand horses for daily consumption."
The biggest difference between cavalry and infantry is rapid maneuverability. If only one horse is used for galloping, it is often not enough. In order to save horse power, it is even reserved for charging. There are often extreme situations where the infantry waits for the cavalry on the front line.
Therefore, it is necessary to prepare a few more horses.
But horses, like salt and iron, are in short supply during wars. Even if you have a lot of money, it is difficult to buy them.
Yin Jianyuan was not stupid. He had already issued an order to restrict the sale of horses.
However, the Yanshan Snowfield, which is a great place for horse production, is too far away from Yongtai City. There are not only bandits and bandits along the way, but also the Governor's Hall secretly disturbing the situation. After all, distant water cannot quench the near thirst.
"Okay, I'll think of a way to solve it for you as soon as possible." Chen Tian rubbed his temples.
It's noon.
The sun dazzles my eyes a bit.
After Chen Tian said goodbye to Wei An, he turned and walked towards the workshop next to the north wing. This place is under the jurisdiction of Qianji Pavilion and Fenjin Villa. It is even larger than the school grounds of Shizi Camp, and it was evacuated from Xianyue Valley earlier.
There are several huge objects placed unexpectedly on the flat ground, and the linoleum cloth covers them tightly, and there is no leakage.
There were many disciples around who were hammering parts, the sound of clanking could be heard all the time, and the pungent smell of tung oil was everywhere.
"I've seen the God!"
"I've seen the God!"
"Okay, go about your business." Chen Tian waved his hand, indicating that everyone did not need to pay homage, and went straight to find Cheng Yiliang near the furnace.
The fire was burning brightly and the heat was overwhelming. Cheng Yiliang quickly wiped the sweat that almost fell into his eyes and said in surprise: "How did the Lord know that our sect had made a machine puppet?"
"You can't wait to show off, right?" Chen Tian smiled and handed him a bowl of cold water, "Where are those big guys?"
Cheng Yiliang raised his neck and drank hard, grunting: "Dare you ask the Lord to wait a moment, the machine puppet is only missing the last part."
Finished.
He took out a piece of red-hot iron from the pure green stove, knocked and smashed it, and with sweat pouring down like rain, he quickly made a small hand gear.
The surrounding disciples knew that the great work was about to be completed, and they all focused their burning eyes on Cheng Yiliang. Finally, under the expectation of everyone, he pulled off the linoleum cloth, revealing a square metal monster.
When he put the gear in the gear, mobilized his spiritual power and turned it clockwise, the crisp clicking sound of the gears was heard, and a giant bird immediately spread its wings and fluttered.
Its wings are spread out like fans, and the densely packed runes reflect the metallic luster under the sunlight. When the runes suddenly light up, they roar like a phoenix coming into the world.
Chen Tian stood in the shadow and looked up, feeling that it was higher than the sentry tower, as if he could be crushed to death by just its huge size without having to send out the wind blade.
Everyone was even more stunned. They were so shocked that they opened their mouths wide and could not speak for a long time. They only heard bursts of hissing sounds.
"Mom!"
"It turns out that the thing we worked so hard to build is actually the Qingyuan Machine? It's incredible!"
"The talisman carving made my head hurt. In the end, it turned out to be so grand?"
"The shogunate's confidentiality work is so good that we were all kept in the dark!"
"Is this blue kite comparable to a gryphon?"
"I guess it's almost the same. The runes on the wings of the blue kite are modeled after the meridians of the gryphon. They should also be able to release the wind blade."
"It's a pity that the Hongtianlei has not made any progress, otherwise we can also install a big killer weapon and blow up Pingmuguan directly."
"Then stay up all night tonight. The Griffin Legion has caused serious damage to our Yongtai City. We must take revenge no matter what!"
Chen Tian carefully looked at this mechanical Qingluan, and felt that it did look a bit like a griffin, but due to the aesthetic inheritance of Qianji Pavilion, Qingluan still had some charm of the crane in the clouds, ethereal and elegant.
"Honored God, how do you feel about yesterday?" Cheng Yiliang asked anxiously.
"It's okay, let's take a few steps and have a look."
"Okay!" Cheng Yiliang got into Qingluan's abdominal cavity, pushed the handle, and a jumping figure suddenly appeared on the field.
It's fine if it doesn't move, but when it moves, it feels like Qingluan is like a sparrow, with all its charm lost, which is shocking.
Cheng Yiliang knew he was a little embarrassed, so he put his head around and chuckled: "Don't blame me, Lord God. I also want to make Qingyuan a little more nimble, but in order to land smoothly, I can't add shock-absorbing springs to the feet, so I can only jump.
."
"It doesn't matter." Chen Tian waved his hand to show that he didn't care, "Can you fly now?"
"You can fly, but you can only fly a little."
"Then let's go and try."
Chen Tian boarded the machine Qingyuan and found that not only was there a fence on the back for people to stand and shoot arrows, but there was also a cavity in the abdomen, which could fully carry two teams, and a total of twenty-five people including the driver.
Cheng Yiliang didn't waste much time and pushed the hand gear hard. The blue kite then flapped its wings violently, rolled up a lot of smoke and dust, and flew into the sky.
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available.]
In an instant, the entire Makino Castle saw a huge shadow passing in the air, and the sound of the wind was like a prelude to a torrential rain.
"vomit--"
"Sect Master Cheng?"
"It's okay, it's okay, it's flying too hard, Wei Zhi just feels a little nauseous." Cheng Yiliang waved his hands repeatedly with an embarrassed look on his face, holding the handrails without looking back. "..." Chen Tian was speechless.
