Chapter 47
"Merlin, you know the military. Stay here to help train these soldiers. Although we are unlikely to fight this time, we are prepared for any eventuality. We should make as much preparation as possible and send people back to Kuka Town to ask my parents to help prepare enough supplies. I will go out for a while."
Seeing Meilin's anxious look, he immediately whispered: "I will leave you enough elemental ore, and you can practice the same here. Anyway, you use elemental ore, and it's the same everywhere, but you just spend some time training them."
After hearing Feleg's words, Merlin's face improved a lot. As long as the training is arranged by himself, the two team leaders will naturally take them to practice, and he can only meditate on the side of the training ground. Feleg was willing to guide her to learn magic and gave her so many elemental ores. Merlin was still very grateful to him. She was willing to do something for him.
After arranging Meilin and the two team leaders, Ferig invited several blacksmiths to carefully ask about the style, size and thickness of the armor, and then left the capital.
Ferig doesn't know how many memory metals and elemental ores are in the mountain range of the Grassland Valley, but it doesn't think there will be a small number. He doesn't know whether he can build tens of thousands of armor, but it should be no problem to arm his private soldiers of these two hundred people.
When I was building armor for myself, Felleg spent a lot of time. During the construction process, he was also a training process for magic control, killing two birds with one stone.
But this time, it is not necessary. It is much easier to build a plate armor than a chain mail, and it is about the same size. For insurance, Feige made the plate armor a little larger. When wearing it, he could put some fur or cotton cloth on it. He had already thought about it before creating it.
The facts were similar to what he imagined. It was indeed much easier to build plate armor. I made six sets on the first day, which was still because he was not skilled enough.
Ferlig completed all the two hundred sets of plate armor in a month and a half. The more he went, he became more skillful, and the more refined the production, which was also thanks to the basics of alchemy learned from Master Antonio.
Looking at these armors, Ferlig secretly felt sorry for him. If he could portray the magic array on it, it would be perfect. It wasn't that he couldn't do this, and he could do it several times more time. But these ordinary warriors definitely don't have a trace of magic power, so how could they fill the magic array with magic power?
Anyway, the possibility of encountering magicians on the battlefield is extremely low, and it is almost impossible to count. Memory metal itself has magic resistance. Otherwise, the Ferig elemental ore would not have been so hard at the beginning. These armors still have great resistance to low-level magic. As for advanced magic, there is no need to consider it. No magician would be interested in these soldiers.
The space for splitting the sky is too small, and it can be equipped with up to thirty sets of armor at a time. Fortunately, the power of the hurricane is very strong, and you can bring another twenty sets of armor to transport fifty sets of armor at a time. Feileg worked for several days before transporting all of these armor back to Delan Capital.
When wearing these armors, although I had considered a lot in advance, I still encountered a lot of trouble. The soldiers' heights are similar, but they are fat and thin. If they are ordinary armor, they can only adjust them again. However, there is no way to adjust the memory metal, so I can only barely put it in.
Kai and Will were very puzzled by this, but judging by Felge's appearance, they didn't seem to have to explain, and could only obey orders. They were the private army of the Landis family, and Felge was the head of the family and a powerful magician.
"How does it feel?" Kai asked.
"It's a bit tight, but I can't find anything better, I can only deal with it. I don't like this set of plate armor very much, it seems to be thinner than our original armor." Will stood up and jumped, feeling that it was OK, at least it wouldn't affect his battle.
"It's a little thinner, but do you feel it's heavier than our original plate armor?" Kai was also doing different actions to test whether this plate armor was integrated.
"Yes, it's a lot heavier. Fortunately, we can still accept such weight. I don't know how protective it is?" This is what Will is most concerned about. The armor is not worn to look good, but to save his life.
"I don't know, maybe we should try it." He said that, picking up the sabre...
Merlin is much more knowledgeable than Kai and Will. When she was in the Grassland Valley, Ferlig gave her a set of chain mail. She was very surprised at that time because the magic conductivity of metal is very poor, and except for several special metals, it is not suitable for magicians to use.
These special metals are very soft, with strong extension and magic conductivity, but they are definitely not suitable for making armor. This is also the reason why magicians wear magic robes.
But this set of chain mail is completely different. It has extremely good magic conductivity, no worse than the pure gold that Merlin has seen before, and even better magic conductivity than the secret silver.
Not only the chain mail on his body, but also the seven and a half feet long magic wand in his hand are made of metal. The end of the magic wand is made of sharp spear tips. If it turns backwards, it is the same as the horse-resisting rifle in the hands of the soldier. When he gets this magic wand, Merlin feels amused and crying.
But looking at the equipment in Filig's hand, Merlin accepted his fate. Filig was also wearing a pitch-black chain mail. It was not a magic wand, but a broadsword. On the handle of the broadsword, there was also an elemental crystal slightly smaller than the fist. Anyone who saw such equipment would think that Filig and himself were warriors, and would not think they were magicians.
Equipping his own private army, Felleg returned to the grassland valley again. As for military training, it was not his turn to worry about it. Even if he was asked to manage it, he would not have that ability.
This time, we cleared the things in the cracking sky and mined the elemental ore as much as possible. As for the memory metal mined, we cannot waste it. We still use magic to create plate armor. Although we can't use it this time, we can still use it in the future. There are 300 soldiers who are not equipped.
The elemental ore here is indeed accompanied by a small number. In the past, memory metal wasted casually, so mining was much easier. Now Ferig knows that these are treasures, so he is naturally reluctant to do anything. As a result, only more than 100 elemental ore were collected in a month.
It took a few more days to purify these elemental ores into elemental crystals to ensure that they are more convenient and quick when used. As for the elemental crystals used on the magic wand and the magic broadsword, more than a dozen pieces were prepared.
Calculate the time, it is not far from the day of sending troops. There are more than 200 sets of plate armor in the cave, so I can only put it here first. Anyway, the armor made of memory metal is very strong, and even if it is left for one or two hundred years, it will not be damaged.
When I returned to the capital, the Imperial notice had been issued a few days ago. If it weren't for the purpose of waiting for Feleg, the troops would have set off a few days ago. Fortunately, the Imperial notice was not tough, as long as it arrived within the designated time, the army of the Duchy of Terran was an infantryman, but everyone had two war horses, and even if they waited for a few more days, they would be anxious.
The Delan army finally set off after waiting for Feleg. Each person had two war horses, one for transportation, and the other for a month of supplies, so that the troops could continue to march, and it would not be too hard.
Under Danny's command, the troops marching seemed to be like this, but everyone knew very well that such an army would be okay to fight a thief group, but it was far from going to the battlefield.
Fortunately, it can be seen from the order that the Imperial Army is still very clear about the combat effectiveness of the troops of the small principality. The Delan Army's goal is the Little Bear City 500 miles away from the left rear of the front line. Little Bear City is the closest to the Mayan Empire, and Li belongs to a medium-sized city under the Auckland Empire's Rage Lion Kingdom, with a population of more than 800,000.
During the war, Little Bear City, as one of the rear supply bases of the Imperial Left Army, established twelve large storage bases outside the city, which can ensure the food and weapons and equipment of 500,000 people of the Left Army per month. In such a supply city, the Left Army alone has four.
As a logistics supply base, the guards are naturally very strict. In addition to the left-wing army sending a standard 10,000 division, there are also troops from six small principalities to coordinate their defense. In addition to the local security army, the total force can reach more than 40,000 people, of which the Degong Army is the weakest in combat and the smallest in number.
To reach the Little Bear City of the Rage Lion Kingdom, you need to pass through the territory of three principalities and two kingdoms, with a distance of 6,000 kilometers. At the normal marching speed, infantry travels 100 kilometers a day, which takes more than two months, and twenty days of riding horses is enough.
Every day, he walked from sunrise to sunset, Danny was really a general, and managed the troops in an orderly manner. During the day, he sent scouts to march and sent out light and dark posts and patrol posts at night. Even the daughter of Merlin, the Grand Duke, did not stop nodding.
At present, the march is within the empire, and even in different priests and kings, there will be no danger. As for the thieves and bandits, they will not be so stupid that they attack the army, which is not oily or watery, and extremely dangerous. Danny did this to train troops while marching. After all, the Delan army has not been in contact with war for hundreds of years.
After camping every night, Felig and Merlin naturally do meditation homework. During the day, Felig also tried to meditate immediately, but found that they could not do it at all, so they had to practice magic control during the day.
