There are many forces trying to influence and win over Bai Lang. After all, this powerful general is really a sharp knife - the most important thing is that he has not shown an independent tendency at all. He relies on this lightness to compete for the world.
Coves and hundreds of soldiers? In this case, this peerless general is probably the type who has no ambitions and only seeks orthodoxy and loyalty. Isn't this a peerless sword?
So Bailang not only has to face the wooing of Pegasus Ranch - this is a way to stay together in troubled times, because Shang Xiuxun is still very wary of his so-called best friend Miss Li. Li Xiuning may not want to do anything to the mall owner,
But Li Clan definitely wants to swallow up the Pegasus Ranch. Buying a hundred horses is actually nothing, but Bailang is preparing to gradually form a cavalry. When he wants to equip all the cavalry with chainmail, shields, sabers, and horse spears,
Of course, there are also crossbows, and the horses are also equipped with leather and woolen vests.
Basically, it can be used as an inferior piece of armored cavalry. Finally, with one person and at least two riders, and with the supplies pulled by the carriage, these hundreds of cavalry are enough to dominate the world. Such cavalry follows Bailang.
Brushing heads, Bai Lang felt that it was a good idea, "In ancient times, there were tiger and leopard cavalry of the Cao family in Gao Shun's camp, but now it's not bad to have a white tiger cavalry like me!" Bai Lang calculated and armed these five or six hundred people - yes Bai Lang
I think seven hundred is still too much, so I still need to eliminate some of it.
It would cost a lot to arm these five or six hundred people. Swords, shields, bows, crossbows, horses, and spears are just fine. Chain mail and armor are also okay. All together, it costs one or two hundred guan for each person. It's almost the same.
, these are already hundreds of thousands of gold. And then there are horses as consumables... This is the bulk of the money. Horses are delicate animals, and they often die without even saying hello.
, in order to keep it from dying, you have to take care of it as if you were your own father...
The war horses charging into the battle are fed fine food - rice, wheat, beans and even eggs, which is better than what humans eat. Therefore, a horse may need more than a hundred pounds, and it has to eat dozens or hundreds of pounds every day.
The horse material is worth hundreds of cents a day in a war. If it doesn't take one battle, it will be dead and the horse will have to be replaced. "If you think about it carefully, war is really a loss-making business..." Bai Lang
He muttered. These people are armed with at least hundreds of thousands of weapons and go out. The cavalry is such a waste of money.
Of course, you can also use Latin, which costs almost no money. You can recruit herdsmen to join the army outside the Great Wall. They even provide their own horses and don't need to spend much money. But combat effectiveness is different from a standing army...
Bailang had never told anyone this idea, and he was not prepared to say it to Wei Zhenzhen and Shang Xiuxun - for what purpose? Will it be useful? It is hard to say whether this matter can be carried out in Chengdu. This time when we attack Wagang Village, we will start from the beginning.
Among the spoils collected from Luokou City and the defeated army in Wagang, Bailang was given almost 200,000 guan of property - in fact, Luokou City was looted. With this money, he could almost equip himself with weapons, but
These one hundred war horses can only be said to be consumables for training.
Now these county soldiers should learn to ride horses, and then Bai Lang will teach them practical martial arts and Qi training techniques, turning them into the assault cavalry in his mind. Bai Lang has read a lot of online novels, one of which talks about modern cavalry.
The wall charge happened to be similar to the heavy cavalry charge of the armored cavalry, so Bailang thought it would be a promising thing to train them to line up like a wall and charge.
"So what should we teach them? Rather, we need to sort out a method from these thirteen Taibao horizontal exercises to increase their strength and support their physical strength. It is best to use a method that combines man and horse to circulate the true energy." Bai Lang thought about this question, Wei Zhenzhen
He went to entertain Shang Xiuxun, and he happened to be thinking alone. As for the martial arts, it was also simple. The sword technique was the current straight knife stabbing, slashing, and no tricks.
It even split the armor.
Bailang even thought of letting them carry Guduo - a straight knife is suitable for killing unarmored and light-armored infantry, but Guduo can kill those heavy infantry. Then there are shields used by cavalry - overall, the most useful ones are
A buckler covered with iron, put on the arm with a leather strap. Needless to say, the horse is a crossbow. When it comes to crossbows, Bailang prefers to bring a bow - because it is not very convenient to string the crossbow on a horse. If it can be strung, it is a light crossbow.
Although the horse bow is not as powerful as the foot bow, it is still better than the crossbow that can only fire one arrow. Then it is simple. Bai Lang needs to teach the sword technique for fighting, the sword and shield killing technique combined with the shield, and the use of bone.
Methods can also be mixed in, and unarmed drills must be added - this is the martial arts of short fighting, and then the martial arts of using a knife, using a shield, using a horse spear, and riding and shooting. Now it seems that it is not possible to teach them.
Use the skill of the horse to fight on foot.
It's interesting to think about it. Bai Lang feels like he can't teach him the crossbow martial arts - because he is very average in this aspect. But as for the eighteen weapons, Bai Lang feels that he can definitely teach it with his own level.
Bailang has the secret book of Dieyan's double kill, which is researched for dual-wielding weapons. Of course, one-handed weapons and two-handed weapons are also included in it. It was originally made by a generation of strong men who have embraced all rivers. In Bailang's hands, he can still use it according to his own needs.
What he has seen and heard is innovating from the old - this is a martial arts that can never be fully practiced and studied. From it, he compiled a set of long and short soldiers and useless martial arts. In Bailang's opinion, it is better than the secret book he got for Shuanglong.
Still simple.
Just when Bai Lang wanted to buy weapons, someone from the Dongming Sect came to the door... The person who came to the door was a middle-aged man named Shang. When he entered, he first presented a box of bright daggers and daggers to Bai Lang.
Opening the box, he looked at the satin-like patterns on the dagger—these patterns could only be seen at a specific angle under the light. He picked up the dagger and felt the cold air hit his face. "It is indeed a good knife." Bai Lang praised.
, I am also quite impressed with the business scheming of Dongming Sect.
Is this thing expensive? It's very expensive. A finely crafted dagger is by no means cheap, let alone a whole box with at least thirty daggers in it. But compared with Bailang's possible orders, it can actually be considered as a subsidized profit. Really
The person who was most valuable was probably Bai Lang. Since people took the initiative to show their kindness, Bai Lang was not polite. He told his requests one by one and paid half of the fee.
The middle-aged Shanglong nodded in agreement, and the price offered at the same time seemed to Bai Lang to be very favorable, but he seemed to ask casually, "Does General Bai himself have armor worthy of the name of bravery?"
Bai Lang was also stunned. The surface of his armor was covered with armor-piercing arrows. Even when he removed the arrows one by one, the armor pieces had been shot with holes everywhere, and his helmet also had a big hole. It was indeed unbearable.
wore.
Originally, it didn't matter whether Bailang had armor or not, but the dazzling armor on the general was definitely the center of attention and the morale of the whole army. The dazzling and gorgeous armor on the general proved his bravery and lofty status. So Bailang still
You need a pair of armor, and is there a better weapon forging master in the world than the Dongming sect? In fact, there is... But where is Lu Miaozi? Bailang doesn't want to disturb this reclusive person.
Anyway, his armor does not seek defensive power, but just looks gorgeous and dazzling.
