Zhang Weidao brought the humans who were preparing for militia training to the training ground. At this time, the kobold musketeers were firing volleys, and the continuous shooting left holes in the targets set up.

Zhang Weidao was very satisfied after seeing the power of the muskets. He turned around and showed off to everyone: "This team of organic musketeers is very good! If the number of orc infantry is not particularly large, if they dare to attack the city, there will be no return."

"

The dozen or so veterans who had participated in the battle to defend Stormwind City made eye contact with each other, and finally pushed Wu Ping, the weapons master, to answer this question.

Wu Ping observed the musketeers who were training and then said carefully: "This musket is perfectly fine against ordinary orcs, but it won't work against heavy armored units. I'm going to get the equipment to demonstrate."

After saying that, he ran to discuss the process with Tie Zhi, who was in charge of training. Tie Zhi determined that Wu Ping must do this and asked the musketeers to stop shooting. Wu Ping held a heavy shield and stood over the broken target and waved, Tie Zhi waved.

The command flag pointed in Wu Ping's direction, and the sound of neat musket firing sounded again.

In the hail of bullets, Wu Ping huddled behind the heavy shield and carefully approached the musketeers. The hot bullets hit the heavy shield and bounced directly to the side. Moreover, Wu Ping would quickly approach between each rotation of the shooting team.

Within a few rounds of shooting, Wu Ping was already very close to the musketeers. When Wu Ping had advanced to the distance where he could charge, Tie Zhi waved his flag to stop shooting, then looked back at Zhang Weidao helplessly, "Sir, don't consider going.

If we fight with bayonets, the battle is over."

Wu Ping raised the uneven heavy shield in his hand, "This shield can't stop the orcs from slashing and smashing with their big axes, but the musket bullets can easily bounce off when they hit it, and you can also use anger to increase the strength."

After thinking for a while, Wu Ping added: "However, although this musket has no effect on heavily armored soldiers, it is still no problem against those orcs. They are basically in leather armor or no armor."

Zhang Weidao looked at the shield with outstanding defense. The defensive power of the equipment in this world was too strong, and the damage caused by gunpowder weapons was greatly limited. No wonder high-tech races such as dwarfs and goblins couldn't get ahead.

So he said to everyone on the training ground: "The shooting practice is almost done. Next, we will step up the practice of close combat training. Master Wu Ping will guide everyone in the use of weapons."

Seeing the three to four hundred people on the field engaged in enthusiastic training, Zhang Weidao turned around and walked towards the jade mine. He wanted to see the progress of the armor made for the kobolds.

Along the way, there were refugees scattered in the fields to check the growth of pumpkins. When Zhang Weidao passed by, they all thanked him with respect. Zhang Weidao never lowered his hand in returning the gift along the way.

Zhang Weidao breathed a sigh of relief when he came to the mine, finally getting rid of these enthusiastic refugees. Although the kobolds coming and going in the mine would say hello to Zhang Weidao when they saw him, they were not as excited as the refugees to thank him. However, considering

When Zhang Weidao had just rescued them, it was normal for him to be so excited. After all, the threat posed to them by the orcs was really terrifying.

Seeing the kobolds in the mine packing up the armor components, Zhang Weidao inquired and learned that more than a hundred sets had been produced, and the production progress was still very fast. Zhang Weidao asked an idle kobold to go to the training ground to deliver a message

, bring the human blacksmiths at the training ground to work together, and try to seize the time to build the armor and weapons of the human militia.

Zhang Weidao came to the blacksmith area and saw that the blacksmiths were concentrating on forging the iron plates. The kobold blacksmith was responsible for the preliminary forging and shaping and then handed it over to Garroen. Garroen processed the fine parts and then quenched them.

Apprentices polish the edges.

The whole set of armor production process is very smooth. When Garroen receives the semi-finished products from the kobold blacksmith, he will also point out how to improve it. The whole working atmosphere is busy and pleasant.

Zhang Weidao picked up a breastplate and weighed it. The breastplate alone weighed about thirty kilograms, plus the skirt, leg armor and other parts, the total added up to at least sixty kilograms.

However, according to Zhang Weidao's observations in the past few months, although the kobolds are short in stature and look very weak, after all, they evolved from the defective troggs when the Titans created the earth spirits, and they still have a lot of physical strength and strength.

A little bit of the light of Titan creation.

When the Titans created the earth spirits, they produced failed stone palates. The stone palates and earth spirits were later cursed by the flesh and blood of the ancient gods and transformed from silicon-based life forms into carbon-based life forms. This is how dwarves and kobolds were born.

Therefore, both races are particularly good at mining, and kobolds are equivalent to castrated versions of dwarves.

Zhang Weidao asked the blacksmith apprentice to try on the armor. After the assembly was completed, it turned into a small iron can, which could effectively protect life safety during war.

At this time, several human blacksmiths came over. Zhang Weidao asked them to follow the arrangements of the master blacksmith Garroen, and then asked Garroen to complete the batch of armors and then build a shield first. The shield should be a square tower shield, suitable for being combined together to form a shield.

Shield wall, which can bring out the defensive characteristics of human soldiers.

At that time, the human heavy infantry will hold the front, while the more skilled humans and kobold veterans in the rear will poke and stab, and the kobold musketeers will extend their barrels from the gaps to fire cold guns. The large-scale reserve heavy infantry and musketeers are still very large.

What makes it easy to match is that the number of offensive warriors cannot meet the requirements. There are only about twenty mid- to high-level warriors from kobolds and humans.

After checking the work progress of the blacksmiths, Zhang Weidao took away the black iron armor before leaving. He didn't take the armor seriously before, but when he wanted to use it today, he found it still in the blacksmith shop.

Today we relied on the Golden Armor Talisman and the Holy Light Shield to crush the orcs, but that doesn't mean that in the future we can just rely on the shield to ignore all attacks. If the orcs are attacked by masters, they can really break the shield. The Holy Light Shield is just

Offset some attacks. Attacks that are too high will be broken. If the golden armor talisman is also consumed, you will be injured.

Considering that the reserve militiamen did not have shields suitable for training, Zhang Weidao decided to use wooden shields for practice first. So he found the kobold craftsman who was the best at carpentry. Zhang Weidao first split the felled trees by the waterfall into thick wooden boards.

The kobold craftsmen repaired and installed the straps as required, and the reserve heavy infantrymen who were training took turns to receive the wooden shields.

Although the wooden shield is relatively light in weight, it can still be used to practice tactical moves first. Once you have an iron-clad shield, it will be fine to get used to the weight.

Soldiers holding wooden shields attack each other on the training ground. After the shield blocks the attack, they thrust out the wooden spears in their hands. The long spears used by the human soldiers have not been made yet, so they are temporarily replaced by the short spears of the kobolds. Although the size is a bit smaller, it is still
