Chapter 487: Wealthy (Part 1)(1/2)
Chief of Staff Brann smiled and said: "General Pedro really knows how to joke. The Broken Blood Cavalry is famous all over the world. Although the centurion guard I brought has some strength, it will never dare to compete with the general's cavalry.
They just came to demonstrate the gifts we brought this time."
"Do you know me?" General Pedro's focus was somewhat different.
"We know each other naturally." Brann sincerely complimented him. "Who doesn't know that there are three handsome generals in the Broken Mouth Blood Castle? Among them, the veteran Pedro is unparalleled in his loyalty and righteousness. He is famous all over the world and is a model for all generals. I have known the story about the generals since I was a child.
I’ve heard about it.”
"Unparalleled loyalty? Haha, I like this adjective." General Pedro's thick black eyebrows danced like a dance, "I didn't expect that my reputation could be spread so far, even in the Andes Mountains.
I heard.”
What this veteran is most proud of in his life is not his brilliant achievements on the battlefield, but his unwavering loyalty to the Broken Blood Castle and the Strachey family. Brann's compliment directly touched him.
of itchy spots.
"Okay, there are already over a hundred people here, don't let someone else's compliments make you lose your way." Archduke Cedric interrupted General Pedro's self-pleasure, "Since we are here, let's watch together.
Look, that bastard Arnold was found in the Evernight Army, but he is now being detained for stealing military secrets. The young lord wanted to use him to train his elite, and it is said that he took out three treasures. You
Please help me see if these three treasures are qualified to be used in our Broken Mouth Blood Riding training method."
"You lords are so ambitious, you actually want to build a Broken Mouth Blood Cavalry, can't you? Haha... I would like to see what the three treasures you talk about actually look like, which actually gave you the confidence to exchange for the training of the Broken Mouth Blood Cavalry.
Law." Speaking of business, General Pedro just disappeared without a formal appearance, and the light in his eyes became even brighter.
Compared to Archduke Cedric, the old general had a deeper affection for the Broken Mouth Blood Cavalry, especially in the training of the Broken Mouth Blood Cavalry. He invested more energy than anyone else.
To put it bluntly, half of the credit for the current training model of the Broken Mouth Blood Cavalry belongs to him, while General Arnold just eats what is ready.
If you want to trade the Broken Mouth Blood Riding training method, Archduke Cedric will have to consult him sooner or later.
"Why don't you wait until the two generals have seen it?" Brann was still smiling. It was obvious that he was also full of confidence in what he had brought. He hoped that after they saw it, their jaws would not drop in shock.
"Follow me." General Pedro turned the horse's head. The training ground was his home ground and he was more familiar with it.
He soon led them to a training ground with open terrain and good visibility.
Before they could start, General Esmond, another powerful figure in Broken Mouth Blood Castle, showed up uninvited.
Maybe it's because the age gap is too big. General Esmond is old enough and mature enough. In addition, the Strachey family has a unique ruling model. The position of Grand Duke represents not only rights, but also a mountain of responsibility, so they
The relationship between brothers is not as tense as between heirs of other families. On the surface, they are harmonious, but behind the scenes they want to trample each other to death.
Compared to the other serious brothers, General Esmond, whose personality is somewhat similar to Archduke Cedric's old-fashioned character, gets along best with General Arnold, who is inconsistent in his daily life.
The fact that General Arnold was able to successfully sneak out of the Bloody Fortress was partly due to General Esmond. Without him turning a blind eye, General Arnold would have been led by Archduke Cedric himself not long after he ran away.
The man was captured and brought back.
I heard about the latest news about General Arnold, so of course I have to pay some attention to it.
When General Esmond arrived, it was somewhat late. The centurion brought by Brann was already ready to display the first treasure. He could only suppress this concern in his heart and watch patiently.
"The kind of spear Arnold used?"
Archduke Cedric, General Pedro and General Esmond looked at each other.
The Elf Blood Thorn used by General Arnold was very familiar to them. After all, they had considered copying it and using it as a cavalry weapon for the Broken Blood Cavalry.
After all, the Broken Head Sword consumes too much steel, and they mainly rely on donations from other grand duke families. If they can replace it with cheaper items, even if the combat effectiveness of the Broken Head Blood Cavalry is reduced to a certain extent, they are willing.
After all, the saved steel will allow them to equip more soldiers.
Unfortunately, the Elf Blood Thorn belongs to the era of the Elf Empire. There are too many black technologies, and their imitation effects are too poor, not even one-tenth of its power.
They couldn't risk the lives of those elite soldiers, so they could only give up temporarily.
Unexpectedly, the first treasure that the leader of the Yongye army brought out was an imitation of the Elf Blood Thorn.
The reason why it is said to be an imitation of the Elf Blood Thorn is that not only the shape is exactly the same, but the patterns engraved on it are also very similar.
There are also differences.
That is, these imitation guns are longer and thicker than the Elf Blood Thorn, and are more suitable for mounted combat.
The whole body is in a rustic brass color, and in addition to the pattern, it is also wrapped with translucent silk threads.
All those present were experienced veterans, and they could immediately see the benefit of doing so, which was that it was anti-slip.
On the battlefield, even if their hands are covered with blood and sweat, it does not prevent the soldiers from holding the spear firmly in their hands. Experienced knights will even tie it to their wrists with cloth strips.
The manufacturer of this piece obviously thought of it. These soldiers took off the big brass gun from the hook on the side of the mount. After unpacking the layers, they hung the silk thread at the tail to the hook under the wrist guard of their right arm. Even if the long gun could not be used,
You can take it back even if you take it off carefully, without affecting your flexibility like a cloth wrapped around your hand.
I just don’t know that these imitations have almost 10% of the original characteristics of Elf Blood Thorns.
They know very well that the real strength of the Elf Blood Thorn is not its hardness, but its toughness, which is the foundation for strength. If it is only as hard as an iron gun, it will be greatly reduced.
"Dismount! Form up!" Brann shouted loudly.
This hundred-man guard did not mount a charge on horseback. Instead, they held large brass camphor guns, formed a square formation, and walked to the open space in front of everyone with uniform steps.
"Disperse!"
Another order was given, and the dense formation dispersed with a roar. The distance from front to back, left and right was equal, not one step too much, not too many steps. With their almost the same height, and the simple and luxurious uniforms of Yongye Army Leader.
, it does have a different air.
Even General Pedro, who was extremely picky about army training, couldn't help but nod his head. The Yongye Army had already achieved quite a good level of success in terms of military formations, even if he let the Zhankou Xueqiu trained by him ride out the horse.
, that’s it to this extent.
"rise!"
Brann gave the final order.
"drink!"
Hundreds of soldiers shouted in unison, stamped their feet, opened up their posture, and started dancing with the same movement and frequency.
Blossoming gun flowers and the sound of heavy guns piercing the air appeared at the same time.
"Fuck me"
"Y&**("
"Ah!"
The three generals, who were well-informed and battle-hardened, couldn't help but curse at the same time.
The reason why they were so shocked and so out of sorts.
Not only because they know how difficult it is to use a unique weapon like the Elf Blood Thorn, and how time-consuming it is to practice.
Also because they recognized Arnold's marksmanship, they recognized the first movement of these 100 soldiers when they took up their stance.
First they were imitations of Arnold's unique weapons, and now they even had Arnold's marksmanship. Looking at the way these soldiers were practicing, it was obvious that they were quite experienced. Even those weapons that were easy to acquire did not require a year and a half of training.
It can't reach their level, let alone such a weapon that is difficult to use.
But the question is, how many days has it been since General Arnold ran away from home?
It only took a year in total. Half a year ago, Archduke Cedric reminded Sean, the lord of the Evernight Army, that Arnold might be lurking in their army.
In other words, the time that General Arnold fell into the hands of the leader of the Evernight Army would not exceed half a year, or even less.
With their industrial manufacturing capabilities, it is understandable that they imitated the Elf Blood Thorn, but it is a bit incomprehensible that they also stole General Arnold's marksmanship.
However, with this, they no longer have any objection as to whether the leader of the Evernight Army really captured General Arnold.
What really shocked them was yet to come.
Because they soon realized that hundreds of people could follow the same pace without any mistakes, which showed that the other party was not dancing randomly and impromptuly. There were traces and laws to follow.
As expected, the opponent's entire spearmanship movements were quickly rotated.
"This is not just as simple as General Arnold's marksmanship." General Pedro suddenly said, "It does contain many traces of General Arnold's marksmanship, but many places are obviously different, making it more powerful.
It’s more lethal.”
"You mean improvement?" Archduke Cedric asked with some suspicion.
"Yes, it is an improvement." General Pedro nodded, "But what they used was not a complete version. It should be limited by their own strength."
"The general is indeed extraordinary. You can see the doorway inside at a glance." Brann sincerely praised him.
"Okay, don't be pretentious. Just tell me what's going on." Archduke Cedric asked directly.
The eyes of General Pedro and General Esmond also fell on Brann.
Seeing that the shocking purpose had been achieved, Brann stopped making mysteries and answered straightforwardly: "This set of spear skills is called Arnold Spear Techniques. With the help of our lord, General Arnold compiled it by combining what he had learned.
It is divided into basic version, enhanced version, advanced version and ultimate version, corresponding to the four levels of squire knight, knight, great knight and champion knight respectively. The one they just cast was the knight version, and this is the great knight version.
.”
While he was talking, Brann had already asked for a big brass camphor gun, jumped into the arena and started dancing,
The same set of spear skills, in his hands, felt a little different because of the addition of several new movements.
After hearing what Bran said, their eyes started to light up, and they obviously realized the benefits of doing so, which undoubtedly greatly reduced the difficulty of getting started with this weapon.
