What kind of person is Fuman, Yang Yi knows in his heart, like him, he is of unknown origin, Yang Yi has not tested Fuman, such as being locked in Jones's cage, such as transferring the right to the first night to him, but Fuman is like a stupid magician, helpless but not too dissatisfied with him, Yang Yi can't test anything. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

But Yang Yi knew that Fuman should have no bad intentions for him, maybe he was a magician of unknown origin, or there was something unspeakable that had to follow him, an unlucky knight lord, no matter what, Yang Yi couldn't deal with Fuman, not to mention that the queen's discord plan was too obvious.

Forman was not in the manor, Yang Yi asked him to take the gold coins to buy horses in the nearby territory, in the early days of the construction of Lockecounty, the horses needed were not a small number, but Locke County did not produce horses, across the Locke River is a territory called Lev Knight, although the two territories are separated by a river, the gap is quite large, the pasture on the other side of the river is abundant, cattle and sheep, and horses are herds, but the Locke County on this side of the river is barren land, the grain production is not high, and it is also leaning on a mountain.

Locke County doesn't produce horses, so go buy it, Yang Yi's subordinates can use not many people, and gave Fuman a thousand gold coins, not only to buy horses, but also to buy cattle, sheep and livestock, but after three days, Fuman still didn't come back, out of the study, Yang Yi packed up his rope, walked out of the manor, and walked to a few tents on the right side of the manor.

Five huge tents are the military camps in Lockecounty, Yang Yi wants to build an army loyal to him, because he knows that no matter whether it is in the real world or the fairy tale world, it is a tragedy to have no strength, so after the New Year, Yang Yi asked Jones to recruit troops in Lockecounty, and the price given was also very high, eight silver coins a month.

What Yang Yi didn't expect was that the people of Rock County had little interest in being soldiers, although they earned more money as soldiers and didn't have to pay taxes, but most of the young people chose mining and logging, and there were very few people who signed up, and they recruited soldiers for a week, and only recruited three young people, not that there were few people who signed up, little dolls and uncles came to sign up, but Yang Yi and Jones had very high quality requirements for soldiers, sixteen to thirty years old, old or young, and they should be strong and obedient.

There are not many people who meet the standards, and the helpless Yang Yi and Jones have increased the remuneration of being a soldier by two silver coins per month, reaching a high price of ten silver coins per month, so that a soldier can earn more than one gold coin a year, which is a huge fortune for the people of Rock County, so some people no longer go to mining and logging, and choose to become soldiers.

Even so, a month later, plus the young people from outside, Yang Yi and Jones only recruited thirty qualified young men, and Yang Yi was already very satisfied with the fact that there were too few people in Rock County, and now all sides needed people, and they couldn't import them......

In this backward era, the population is also wealth, but it is not a matter of one or two days to recruit the population, you can only make do with the shelves first, and the soldiers are there, but there is no barracks, only a few tents can be built, Jones led these young people to train the soldiers and build the barracks at the same time.

Fortunately, there are a lot of old people in Rock County, Yang Yi spent some money, hired some old people to sew military uniforms, military quilts, and help cook, and finally got a little look, but unfortunately, the sword and armor did not fall at all, not to mention these recruits, even the knight master Yang Yi did not have a real knight equipment.

But Yang Yi really needs an army so much, in the future, he will protect the caravan, protect Rock County, protect his knight lord, and expand his territory...... The army is indispensable, so Yang Yi and Jones got together to discuss how to build this army, in this world, the heavy cavalry has reached its peak, that is, Yang Yi and these knights.

Knights are actually heavy cavalry, the cost is very expensive, a manor's income for a few years can also create a pair of armor, tall war horses, professional knights who have to receive strict combat training since childhood, plus heavy metal armor covering the whole body of men and horses and a double-edged sword, so that the heavy cavalry is as invincible as a tank.

As soon as there is a war, the kings of various countries will let the knights of each fiefdom participate in the war with their attendants, and the armed attendants play the role of auxiliaries, usually help the knight master feed the horses, cook, wash clothes, wipe weapons, and even carry the knight's armor, shield, spear, and sword, and wait by the knight's side when fighting, protecting and killing the enemy.

Such auxiliaries, a knight needs at least ten, and even wealthy knights will have dozens of auxiliaries, with knights as the center, the heavy cavalry represented by a country, representing the force of a country, such as Snow White's Earl of Saxony, there are two hundred knights in the country, with two hundred knights as the center, even if each knight has thirty auxiliaries, adding up to almost six or seven thousand people, plus some infantry, less than 10,000 people, these are all the armed forces of the Count of Saxony.

The heavy cavalry was well armoured, completely covered all over the body, and even the eyes were completely protected, but this equipment was obviously not conducive to hand-to-hand combat, and the eye field was small, and it was basically limited to the front. It can only be used to charge, and after rushing over, turn around and charge again, but you must not stop hand-to-hand combat!

China also had the appearance of heavy cavalry, and during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, it was known as Tiefutu. Not only are men armoured, but even war horses are fully clothed, and a cavalry is like a tall statue of the god of war, and when it advances, it is like a steel city wall. The heavy cavalry is indeed very cool, the charge is very powerful, but there are many shortcomings, the most important thing is that the cost is too high, Yang Yi can't afford to play the heavy cavalry at all, and the heavy cavalry can't complete a comprehensive combat mission independently, there have to be too many people to cooperate, the most important thing is that Yang Yi knows that the European heavy cavalry meets the Mongolian cavalry, which is basically the fate of being abused.

The Mongolian cavalry is basically light cavalry, wearing leather armor, the leather armor is hung with iron plates, easy to make, can also be effective self-defense, the Mongols have the farthest range, the most lethal combined bow, this bow between 50 kg and 75 kg, short and easy for cavalry to use freely. The bow shoots arrows with a range of up to 300 meters, and can penetrate even the thickest armor if equipped with sharp metal arrows. With the mobility of the Mongolian cavalry, it is simply invincible in the world.

The Mongolian cavalry is invincible in the world, basically relying on bows and arrows, unlike the European heavy cavalry who are stupid and only know how to charge, charge for a round or two, and then charge without moving, the Mongolian cavalry is very flexible, and when they see the heavy cavalry, they basically run on horseback, and shoot arrows at the enemy in the rear while fleeing. The Mongols called this method of warfare "Mangu".

The essence of this tactic is to attack the enemy from a long distance, to continuously attack the enemy, and not to give the enemy a chance to fight back. No matter how strong the enemy's spirit and armor may be under such an attack, it is only a matter of time before it completely collapses. Most of the European knights were heavily armoured, and although they were very powerful in close combat, their mobility was not comparable to that of the Mongol cavalry. If you encounter a Mongolian cavalry archer, not only can you not catch up, but you can't even escape, you can only use it as a target.

Moreover, the Mongol cavalry did not rely entirely on strong attacks like the European knights, and they only engaged the enemy in close quarters when they had first killed most of the enemy with their bows and arrows. In ancient times in the real world, the Mongolian cavalry relied on this method of warfare to break the 100,000 Hungarian army, the most elite in Europe, on the banks of the Danube, killing more than 70,000 enemies, and playing a song of "red Danube" with bows and arrows, almost completely eliminating the resistance of Europe.

The army that Yang Yi wants is such an army of light cavalry, and he has studied with Jones for a long time, Jones is a real warrior, and he quickly understood Yang Yi's concept, and fully agreed with the training of a light cavalry, so the war horse is a necessary part, which is why Yang Yi can't wait to let Forman buy a war horse, at least let these old hats in Locke County be able to ride horses, and ride well, no matter how they are trained, they must become a qualified light cavalry, and the silver coins of his knight lord are not so easy to take.

The war horse has not been bought, but the boys can't be idle, so Yang Yi and Jones first made some spears, saying that they are spears, knights are similar to red tassel guns, the pole is wood, only the tip of the spear is iron, every day Yang Yi and Jones take thirty young men to carry red tassel guns around Locke, like five kilometers, run three times a day, first train their physical fitness is saying, after running, they will train walking and military posture, as well as some assassination skills.

Of course, the head coach is Jones, and Yang Yi is in it, but he is just playing a leading role, the purpose is nothing more than that, see it, the knights are all training, what else do you have to complain about? So, the thirty young men led by Yang Yi Jones ran again, and it became a scene in Rock County, and even some children who were bored ran behind them......

The people of Rock County have never seen such training of warriors, but as long as there is a knight master, there will never be a shortage of excitement to watch, and the people of Rock County are becoming more and more accustomed to Yang Yi's strangeness, Yang Yi also gritted his teeth every day and insisted on training, not for anything else, just for a sense of security, damn it, Lao Tzu can't learn magic, and it's enough to be a great knight, but Lao Tzu at least has the ability to protect himself......

Not to mention, after tossing for a while, Yang Yi's sub-health state before the little white face has improved, and the person has become energetic, a week later, Fuman led people to drive fifty-six horses, thirty-seven cows, and five hundred sheep back, hearing that the children came to inform him, Yang Yi was impatient to meet Fuman, his heart was very excited, Lao Tzu's light cavalry finally had horses to ride, but when he saw the horse that Fuman drove back, a face suddenly drooped.
