Chapter 41: Ma Qiu! Give me back my legion!

Chapter 41: Ma Qiu! Give me back my legion!
"Beast~"

"You fucking beast~~"

"Using fire attack~ How unscrupulous~~~"

Ma Qiu, who was watching the battle from a distance, had eyes that were about to burst, and looked like a mad tiger.

Every armored cavalryman of the Black Spear Dragon Soaring Army is the bravest among the bravest.

These warriors were truly carefully selected.

The total number is only 3,000.

For the king, this armored cavalry is his favorite.

On the distant city wall, groups of flaming pottery jars fell in a parabolic trajectory.

Every time a clay pot fell to the ground, the burst of fire would always engulf the figures of several nearby armored cavalrymen.

If anyone, including people and horses, is infected, there is no hope of extinguishing the disease.

Life disappears so easily, it can be burned out in the time it takes to burn a cup of hot tea.

But how difficult it is to train them!

"They eat refined rice, really refined rice~~~"

Ma Qiu's knees went weak and he knelt on the ground, wailing.

The losses are too great. The annual consumption of these elite soldiers is more than ten times that of ordinary soldiers.

More importantly, the losses are so great that it is very difficult to replenish them.

Watching them fall into the sea of ​​fire in batches, Ma Qiu was going crazy.

Ding ding ding ding~ding~~

The crisp and penetrating sound of the bugle was heard on the battlefield.

The remaining struggling Black Spear Dragon Sovereign Army heard the sound of the bugle.

They turned their horses around in a panic, carrying a rain of arrows on their backs, and fled for their lives to avoid the sea of ​​fire.

The smarter armored cavalry knew to avoid the fire and run away.

The foolish ones would just ride their horses through the fire.

The result was that he was contaminated by flames and burned to the point of crying for his parents.

Lin Dao, who was standing on the top of the city wall, raised the walkie-talkie in his hand.

"Qin Lang, send out the troops."

The cavalry of the Qihuo Army, who had left the city from another gate, marched around the city in a mighty force and attacked.

Before, when facing the cavalry of the Qihuo Army, Ma Qiu would not even look at them.

But now it’s different. The Black Spear Dragon Sovereign Army suffered heavy losses, and many people were unable to return.

The military morale suffered a severe blow.

Especially those armored cavalry who escaped with fire on their bodies but could not put out the flames no matter what they did.

He rolled over and wailed in front of everyone, watching himself burn to death.

The comrades who came forward to rescue were instead contaminated by the immortal divine fire, causing the rescuers to be burned as well.

The Black Spear Dragon Sovereign Army has lost all its morale.

Ma Qiu's eyes turned red, he jumped on his horse and shouted to retreat.

The situation is unclear, so run away first.

Fire attack, so unethical!
"Use the terrain to your advantage and line up with your backs to the city wall."

"The spear formation resists the impact, and there is a rebar spear formation."

"The Liangzhou cavalry attacked from the side, and the Qihuo army also had cavalry chasing them."

Lin Dao nodded in satisfaction, "The records in the history books are indeed useful."

The Jie cavalry fled far away and the city gates were wide open.

A large number of civilians rushed out of the city gate carrying stretchers to search for and treat the wounded beggar soldiers.

As for the Jie cavalry, regardless of whether they were dead or alive, their heads would be taken off, their clothes and armor would be stripped off, their weapons would be picked up, and their horses would be dragged away.

The headless corpses were thrown into the moat outside the city for burial. After the heads were inspected and registered, they were sent to the main road to be recast in a mausoleum.

The dead and injured war horses were dragged away and processed into meat to reward the soldiers.

The uninjured war horses were gathered together and handed over to the cavalry to be trained and harnessed.

Less than an hour later, Qin Lang returned with the cavalry.

"Master Lang."

Qin Lang stepped forward with a look of shame and saluted, "I am incompetent and have not achieved anything~"

The number of cavalry he brought was small, and most of them were light cavalry.

After all, the Black Spear Dragon Soaring Army is Shi Hu's royal guard, and they can be repelled if their morale is restored.

In other words, the Jie cavalry were busy escaping, and if they launched a large-scale counterattack, they might have to take a bite.

"It doesn't matter."

Lin Dao waved his hand nonchalantly, "It's not his fault."

It is normal that you cannot beat others due to lack of strength.

"correct."

Lin Dao passed over the matter and asked, "How's it going for you learning to operate a mechanical beast?"

When Qin Lang mentioned the mechanical beast, his eyes immediately lit up.

"It works! I just bumped into it a few times, so I'm afraid it might be damaged~~~"

"As long as you can drive it," Lin Dao said with a calm smile. "There will be bigger mechanical beasts in the future for you to learn how to drive."

"Not only do you learn it yourself, but you also need to select a group of brave, careful, and clever people to learn from you."

Qin Lang couldn't imagine what a mechanical beast larger than a tricycle looked like.

But since the master has asked, just agree.

"We were able to drive off the Jie cavalry today, mainly due to the advantage of terrain and Molotov cocktails."

Lin Dao seemed to say to himself, "They have been fooled before, so they won't be fooled again."

"If you want to defeat armored cavalry in a wild battle, the best way is to use heavy armor against heavy armor."

The beggar army in Guangzong County also had cavalry.

However, most of these cavalrymen are relatives and vassals of the generals, and are their core force.

They are not on the same road as Lin Dao.

Cavalry requires long-term and rigorous training.

Not only equipment and horses, but people are also very important.

Without long-term and rigorous training, they can at best be considered mounted infantry, called dragoons?
Lin Dao made preparations for both scenarios.

On the one hand, we will increase investment in cavalry training.

On the other hand, it is to purchase industrial products that are ahead of their time from the modern world to fight against armored cavalry.

Tractors, trucks, excavators and even armored vehicles and tanks.

Civilian products are easy to buy, as long as you have money.

Armored vehicles and tanks are relatively risky. In the information age, it is not difficult to buy them abroad.

The difficulty is that if you are involved with these things, it will inevitably attract attention and investigation.

What Lin Dao is most worried about is the investigation.

What if the secret of being a time traveler is exposed?

Then he will have to stay in Yonghe time and space forever for the rest of his life.

"We'll take our time with these things, and civilian products should be sufficient."

Of course, rewards and banquets are indispensable after victory.

Lin Dao personally distributed the rewards and was present at the banquet to drink with the soldiers.

"Are there any differences in the weapons in your hands and the armor on your body?"

While drinking, Lin Dao asked about the effectiveness of the new equipment.

"The armor is very strong. Even the Jie cavalry's armor-piercing heavy arrows cannot penetrate it."

"Many of our brothers were injured, with broken bones and vomiting blood."

"The hammer is very useful. Hit the Jieqi on the head with a hammer and they will never get up again. Just cut them."

"The steel gun is too heavy~~~"

"The steel gun feels a bit soft, and the front end is shaking and drooping."

Lin Dao took note of it carefully and planned to go back and seek opinions from netizens for improvements.

Netizens really know everything.

In response to the questions raised by Lin Dao in his post, there were many replies soon.

Lin Dao screened and selected several opinions for adoption.

"If the armor is damaged by impact and causes internal damage, it can be lined."

'Chain mail is best, but silk or cotton armor will also do.'

"Solid rebar is definitely heavier, so seamless steel pipes can be used."

"A 32mm (outer diameter) seamless steel pipe weighs just over three pounds per meter."

"It's three meters long and weighs less than ten kilograms. Just put a gun head on it."

"This one definitely won't wobble or droop."

Lin Dao took netizens' advice seriously and decided to update the equipment of the Beggar Army again.

This time, he found another machine processing factory and outsourced the work to it.

"Manager Fang." Lin Dao handed the printed requirements to the sales manager. "Can you do what I asked for?"

A three-meter-long seamless steel pipe with double threads at one-third of the length (to increase the friction when gripping with the palm).

At the other end, pull the left-hand thread to screw on the gun head.

In addition, each seamless steel pipe is equipped with a machined gun head.

Technically speaking, it is definitely not difficult.

It wasn't a prohibited item, and it was to be exported, so the order was signed quickly.

“No money again.”

After paying the deposit, the company's account was depleted again.

Lin Dao used his phone to book a flight to Hong Kong City. "I still have to continue selling gold."

The gold he has now was all seized after the capture of Xiangguo City.

Whether in ancient times or in modern times, whether among nomadic tribes or among farming peoples.

People's love and recognition of gold will never change with the passage of time.

Lin Dao melted the gold cakes and various gold objects seized in Xiangguo City, including those seized from the nobles during the house searches, and cast them into more than 400 gold bars.

It is undoubtedly a huge sum of money, almost enough to buy a house of about 100 square meters in the most prosperous core area of ​​Harbour City.

It's really a huge sum of money~~~
After leaving the airport and getting into a taxi on the way to the company, Lin Dao kept thinking about how to optimize his business.

"The gold shops here definitely have enough capacity to absorb it."

"But if you keep selling gold bars in small batches, you'll eventually be targeted."

"If I had a gold mine~~~"

Lin Dao couldn't even afford a luxury house in Harbour City, let alone a gold mine.

But if it is an abandoned gold mine that has been depleted, it will be much cheaper.

All he wanted was the title so that he could sell the gold through formal channels to various gold shops.

"I have to find time to go abroad."

Lin Dao spent several days selling gold in small batches.

The depleted book funds became rich again.

In addition to gold, he also seized many good things in Xiangguo City.

Such as precious medicinal materials and wood, various furs, silks, satins, jewelry, etc.

It is difficult to sell due to lack of proof of origin.

Yonghe time and space, Yecheng.

"A thousand cavalry? A thousand cavalry!"

The furious Shi Hu walked forward with red eyes, grabbed Ma Qiu's clothes and shook him hard.

"Ma Qiu! Give me back my legion!"

The Black Spear Dragon Sovereign Army had only three thousand cavalrymen in total.

However, they lost more than a thousand people at the city of Xiangguo.

This is equivalent to losing more than one-third of the strength in one battle.

These are all Shi Hu's royal guards.

If it weren't for the ministers coming together to rescue and persuade him, Ma Qiu would have been beheaded.

Shi Hu was very angry and impatient.

"In each of the prefectures of Ling, Si, Ji, Qing, Xu, Bing, and Yong, five men must draft three troops!"

"Order that all prefectures, counties, and districts take four out of five of their warehouses and send them to Yecheng."

Shi Hu was so ruthless that he was determined to kill the beggar army in Xiangguo City at all costs.

"King~~~"

Ming Cheng, the Jin Zi Guang Lu doctor, hurried out of the line, looking anxious and saying, "No~~~"

"It's spring plowing season, and if all the young and strong men are drafted into battle, spring plowing won't be completed in all regions."

"After autumn, the world will be in chaos~~~"

"I beg the Heavenly King to revoke your order~~~"

Shi Hu, with a face full of fat, narrowed his long and narrow eyes and swept his gaze over Ming Cheng like a knife.

"Someone come~~~"

"Drag him out and behead him!"
