143 Preparing to build a cavalry

Jianba asked the spies to continue to inquire about the information and investigate the mysterious player and the movements of various villages near Hutou Mountain. Only Zhan Xiaobai, Jianba and Qiushui were left in the conference hall, and they continued to discuss countermeasures.

Jianba was a little worried. He said in the hall: "If the enemy does not surface and always uses some tricks to harass us, I am afraid that over time, we will be exhausted and difficult to deal with. Once we make a mistake, we may give our opponents an opportunity to take advantage of. We have to be guarded against such means. What do you think?"

Qiu Shui smiled and said, "The enemy is not strong enough and wants to deal with us, so we can only use strange tricks to stumbling on us. The enemy walks on strange paths, and we walk on the right path. The soldiers come to the generals, and the water comes to cover the soil. With our strength, what's there to be afraid of!"

Zhan Xiaobai couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay, Jianba will think about how to deal with the hidden troublemaker. Qiushui will arrange military defense. I guess a result may not be found in a short period of time. I need to be prepared for long-term combat. As for rumors of treasures outside the village, I will consider it again and see how to deal with it."

Jianba and Qiushui each left.

Zhan Xiaobai also left the administrative courtyard, patrolled the village, and comforted the NPC villagers.

Because the river water has been cut off, the NPC villagers and poultry and livestock have all seemed impetuous and uneasy in the past two days, and they always complained to Zhan Xiaobai and others. In order to avoid casualties, after the wood warehouse had a large amount of sufficient reserves, all the lumberjacks were already staying in the village and no longer left the village.

At present, all the water used in the village depends entirely on well water. Fortunately, 20 wells are enough to use, and one of them is a sweet spring, so it did not cause a decline in NPC morale. Li A San is responsible for heavy responsibilities and often runs around the village to maintain the stability of NPC villagers.

The Qiang Di tribe of Beigong Boyu kept their promises and was dispatched by an NPC Qiang Hu envoy and dozens of NPC Qiang cavalry of level 50. Under the cover of night, they safely escorted ten war horses, a full set of horse harnesses, and ten plowing oxen to Xiaobai Village.

Zhan Xiaobai had received a notice from the Qianghu messenger in advance, so that on this night, he and Qiushui did not go offline, so he personally led people to receive the "gift" to welcome the Qianghu messenger. "I thank your tribe for your support. 10 war horses, which are extremely precious materials. Please convey my gratitude to the chief."

The Qianghu envoy once received the instructions of Beigong Boyu. He knew that this village was very important and wanted to win over it. He smiled and said, "Where, my tribe has always attached great importance to friends and has never been stingy with brothers. If you need help in the future, if you have any help in Guizhou, even if you speak, as long as you can help, you will naturally help you very much."

"Thank you so much!"

After the Qianghu envoy handed over the items, he pointed to a npc Qianghu behind him and said, "This man is one of the most outstanding jockeys in my tribe. He is proficient in horse racing, riding and shooting skills, etc. My chief probably doesn't know about horse racing in Guicun, so he specially sent him to Guicun to assist the village in forming a cavalry."

Zhan Xiaobai said happily: "This is great. I am worried that no one will teach the riding and shooting skills. Lord Chief is really a timely help!"

The npc Qianghu jockey stepped forward and bowed: "The villain greets the village chief. From now on, the villain will be Xiaobai Village. The village chief has a task, just give orders."

"Please get up. There is a martial arts hall in my village. Now there is only one martial arts warrior. From now on, you can teach skills in the martial arts hall, specializing in teaching cavalry warfare."

"yes!"

After these matters were handled properly, Zhan Xiaobai personally sent the Qianghu envoys and the Qiang cavalry to leave. He remembered that the player Xiaolang wanted to train a dog, so he asked the Qianghu envoys to buy a male and a female and two puppies back. The Qianghu envoys collected 1,000 copper coins and agreed readily, and sent the two puppies over in a few days.

When Zhan Xiaobai returned to the village, Qiushui had already put ten sets of horse harnesses into the village equipment warehouse and was arranging people to drive the cows and horses to the cowshed and stables.

The players under her were holding ten war horses, and their eyes were so envious that they even turned red.

The difference between war horses and stairs can be easily seen by comparison.

War Horse: Level 30 ordinary yellow-brown horse. Suitable for players above level 30 for cavalry. Normal speed: 35 miles/hour, 350 miles/day. Horse skills: Primary explosion, +10% speed, lasting for 1 minute, interval of 20 minutes. Eat 8 kilograms of coarse grains and 12 kilograms of grass grains every day.

Yima: Level 10 ordinary yellow-brown horse. Suitable for players above level 10 to ride on daily basis. Normal speed: 30 miles per hour, 300 miles per day. This horse cannot be used for combat. Eat 5 kilograms of grass grain every day.

Although the normal running speeds between them are not much different, it is obvious that Yima lacks the terrifying explosive power of the war horse. If a player uses the war horse to intercept the Yima, a speed explosion will easily lead to robbing and killing the Yima.

"Oh my God, level 30 warrior! This is the first time I've been in close contact with a war horse. What does it feel like to touch it?" A player curiously touched the war horse's big round butt. The war horse suddenly shook the back of the hoof and kicked the player down, "-10hp".

The player got up and shouted in anger, "Damn, I'll hit you on the butt and kick me."

The players burst into laughter and were also extremely surprised. The level 30 war horse is indeed powerful, and it can even hurt 10 drops of blood if it swings its hoof. I don’t know how powerful it is to ride this war horse to fight.

A player A sighed: "It's a pity that the level requirements are too high. Sweat, I'm only level 27, and I don't know how long it will take to level 30. When I ride on the war horse, I guess others are tired of riding."

A certain player B said: "Okay, even if you have level 30, can you afford it? Most of the players who can buy war horses are very powerful and rich."

Player A said disdainfully: "You underestimate me too. After a while, the price will be only four or five sams of copper. I am the leader of a small gang, and I can always buy a horse."

"Hey, I don't know you are the leader of the gang. Even if you can afford it, can you afford it? Where can you get 8 kilograms of grain per day?"

"This... there is always a way."

The players were talking about it. Although the war horse could not ride, it did not hinder their interest in fighting. The war horse stable was built between the two primary arrow towers, and several NPC militia archers were watching and guarding the arrow tower day and night.

After putting the horses in the stables.

Qiu Shui came to Zhan Xiaobai and wanted to ask him how he used these war horses.

Zhan Xiaobai smiled and said, "There are not many, let them be used as reconnaissance mounts."

Qiu Shui disagreed. She didn't want to waste such a rare batch of "advanced weapons". She suggested: "The cavalry's killing effect is very significant. At present, most villages do not have cavalry, and we can take advantage of this advantage. So I think we should form a 10-person special combat cavalry team. 10 level 30 archers can even seriously attack a small village, or harass a pure infantry legion of players with a scale of 500 hundred people, which has a strong effect on hindering. And if there are cavalry, if our village encounters harassment from small groups of horse thieves again, we will also have the power to counterattack."

Zhan Xiaobai nodded. As long as he could make these horses efficiently, he didn't care much about what kind of troops they were used for. After thinking about it, he asked Qiu Shui for advice and asked: "That's fine. Then, who would better bring this cavalry?"

Qiu Shui smiled and said, "Brother Bai, you should take this powerful force yourself. Otherwise, all the elders and legion commanders will fight for this army. I can't stop their noise."

Zhan Xiaobai smiled and shook his head. He wanted to lead the cavalry himself, but unfortunately he was too tired to be a clone. I will talk about it after I was idle. It requires cavalry talismans to form NPC cavalry, and there are not in the village. These ten war horses can only be ridden by players.

He said: "From the players in the village, select two player teams with high contribution, loyalty and strong combat effectiveness, and let them change their positions to become cavalrymen. For the time being, I will directly command it. When the scale is larger in the future, a special cavalry army will be formed."

Qiu Shui immediately agreed: "Okay, I will select the players tomorrow and form this army as soon as possible."

The next morning, Qiushui handed the list of players compiled and met the requirements to Zhan Xiaobai for review.

Zhan Xiaobai took a look and found that there were more than ten player teams in total, all of which were selected from the seven legions of Xiaobai Village. Their levels were between 25 and 29, and their contributions were very high.

Zhan Xiaobai selected two of the most contributing teams: Lingyue Team and Zhanfeng Team.

There are two teams on the information compiled by Qiu Shui:

Lingyue's team, captain Ling Yue, was originally affiliated with the Young Heroes Army. He had a strong sense of cover. The Young Heroes Army leveled in the abandoned Gray Sunshine Village and had a small conflict with other villages. They sniped more than ten people in other villages with a small team to cover the army's actions.

The Wind Squad, captain Zhan Feng, was originally affiliated with the Qiushui Legion. Use a level 25 hardwood longbow rewarded with a mission.

Zhan Xiaobai asked Qiushui to send someone to call members of the two teams to the Administrative Courtyard.

Lingyue team and Zhanfeng team didn't understand what to do, so they got the notice and rushed to the courtyard in confusion. When they saw Zhan Xiaobai, they bowed and said, "I have met Boss Xiaobai!" "What's the matter with Boss Xiaobai summoning us?"

Zhan Xiaobai looked at them. Ling Yue, Zhan Feng and others were all young in their 20s, wearing strong armor, waist and swords, and were full of martial arts.

Zhan Xiaobai went down the stairs and said with a smile: "I need a team that I personally commanded. I don't know if you two teams are willing to transfer from the original legion to me and be on standby at any time."

Ling Yue, Zhan Feng and others were stunned at the same time, surprised: "Boss Xiaobai, what you said is not true, right?" "Boss Xiaobai needs a bodyguard?! The Zhan Feng team is definitely happy to serve."

"I'll transfer you here, it's not for bodyguards."

Zhan Xiaobai simply told them everything and said, "Our village is about to form a 10-person cavalry team. Although the number is not large, it will be the strongest unit in our village. Your two teams have high contributions and strong overall strength. However, such a unit requires extremely high loyalty, and I don't know how loyal you are."

The first cavalry to form Xiaobai Village!!!

Oh my God, there is such a good thing, it is indeed a blessing in mind.

Ling Yue, the ten Zhanfeng men knew that they were selected, and they were already excited and could not suppress them. They shouted: "Don't worry, Boss Xiaobai, we will serve the death!" "No other intention." "Boss Xiaobai, the emperor of the court dared to take down the horse in one sentence!" "Boss Xiaobai, my Lingyue team stayed in the village shortly after the village was established, until they were attracted by the young hero and joined the young hero army. We brothers are absolutely loyal to the village and Xiaobai." "Hmph, my Zhanfeng team is not worse than you. I followed Sister Qiu Shui to participate in the first encirclement and suppression of horse thieves, and almost cut the horse thief leader to death."

"alright!"

Zhan Xiaobai nodded with satisfaction. If his loyalty was not enough, Qiu Shui would not hand over their names.

"What are your level?"

"Boss Xiaobai, I'm level 27."

"I'm level 28, I'm about to be 29."

"I'm level 29."

Zhan Xiaobai asked them to calm down and said with a smile: "Okay, the level is still a little worse than the requirements. You can complete two tasks immediately. One is to everyone reach level 30 in the shortest time. You can find Qiu Shui to collect some medicines. The other is to find a jockey in the martial arts hall to learn equestrian skills. After completing these two tasks, you will be the first cavalry commanded by me directly."

All the players of the two teams were extremely happy and immediately rushed out of the yard to upgrade, trying to ride the war horse earlier. "Don't squeeze!" "Oh, don't pull me! Ling Yue, you guy, are so slim."

Seeing that they were so impulsive, Zhan Xiaobai couldn't help but shake his head and smile. If their assault upgrade was fast enough, this level 30 cavalry would be able to come out in about two days.

Li A San hurried from outside and almost ran into the group of spearheaded guys. He was shocked. He made a way out and entered the courtyard. He smiled at Zhan Xiaobai and said, "Lord, the hunter Lu is old."

"Oh, old Lu is here, haha, let's have a few drinks with him."

Zhan Xiaobai and Li A San came to the tavern and saw the old npc hunter Lu Shan ordering wine and food. Since Xiaobai Village provided him with free wine, the old hunter had to come to Xiaobai Village once every ten days to relieve his alcohol addiction.

Zhan Xiaobai and Old Man Li inevitably had to accompany each other, chat and deepen their relationship, and asked the old hunter to "process" a few pairs of hunting bows. The level 20 hunting bows and level 25 strengthening hunting bows in Xiaobai Village are all the hands of the old hunter.

They are all old acquaintances, and the old hunter is not polite, so he asked the two of them to sit down.
Chapter completed!
