Chapter Seventy-Four: The Iron Kite Rides, Galloping for a Thousand Miles

Humans are more territorially conscious than animals.

As long as humans succeed in establishing roots in one place, then it is difficult for other animal groups to appear within a radius of a few tens of miles, unless this animal group is raised by humans.

After having a saddle, the difficulty of riding was greatly reduced, in order to train Yuchun in their riding skills, Wang Li was like driving sheep every day, taking them to hunt within a radius of dozens of miles, not only learned to gallop on horseback, but even a few were able to open a bow immediately.

If there is no saddle in the Central Plains, a soldier who can shoot a bow immediately can easily get the title of second-class knight.

So the prey within a radius of dozens of miles was hunted and killed, and even the wolves were slaughtered in several groups, and the small beasts such as weasels, sables, and mink bears in the trees were also captured, and the cubs were raised by Mo Ren, and the others were skinned to make bacon or cured meat.

Mohai led people to collect all the wild ghost grass and edible food in the forest, although the southern seaside has reached the time of crab autumn fattening, but it is seen that it is decreasing, and it is estimated that next month, there will be nothing to eat on the seaside.

Fish and crabs in several nearby lakes have been strictly controlled and not allowed to be harvested as food for the winter.

In this large-scale hoarding of grain, although the granaries have been filled with two, there is still a steady stream of people entering, and after all, there is something insufficient.

Wang Xu was waiting for the news from Tu Tan, whether Lin Hu had any food reserves, if Lin Hu had no food reserves, then he could only think of another way.

Seeing that the autumn wind was blowing colder and colder, and the leaves had begun to turn yellow, the news of Tu Tan finally came back.

"How?" Wang Li rushed over when he heard the news and asked anxiously.

The more he practiced Yu Chun and them in the past few days, the more he looked forward to the coming of the war, although it was only a small war of a few hundred people.

"A large area of Rongshu and winter onion has been planted in the Linhu Department, which has just recently begun to be harvested, and it seems that it is ready to be shipped to the front." Wang Xu handed him the paperwork.

Rong Shu is a leguminous plant, is the earliest soybean, winter onion is the ancient species of green onion, both of which were domesticated crops at the beginning, and later Qi Huan Gong brought into the Central Plains after the destruction of Shanrong, especially winter onion, it has become Qidi, that is, a special representative crop in Shandong.

"Pipe Ring": "The Northern Expedition to the mountains, out of the winter onion and Rongshu, cloth the world."

Wang Li took it and looked at it, frowning, "Your incitement plan failed?" ”

"Expected." Wang Xu took a sip of flower tea, "If you don't see the master's body, the slave's knife will not dare to swing at the master, because those slaves who dare to swing the knife are already dead." ”

"This is also the elimination theory you put on the deer herd before?" Wang Li frowned and said puzzledly: "Then why did you send Zhai Qiu over to do it?" Not afraid to startle the snake? ”

"But as long as they kill the first master, they will keep killing." Wang Xu put down the teacup and said with a smile.

Although Wang Xu's voice was light, Wang Li was inexplicably a little cold in his back, and said coldly: "Then these slaves can't be wanted." ”

"It's in the nature of a dog that has tasted blood to slowly turn into a wolf." Wang Xu nodded, "That's why I sent Zhai Qiu." ”

Wang Li blinked, sat down and poured himself a cup of tea, and after drinking a cup, he felt that using a teacup was not enjoyable, and he should use a teapot.

After drinking a teapot, he wiped his mouth, "You mean, Zhai Qiu is the head wolf who was selected to control these wolf packs?" ”

"I'd rather be a husky." Wang Xu smiled.

"What is a husky?" Wang Li asked suspiciously.

"It's a dog that looks like a wolf." Wang Xu chuckled.

"Dogs can't control wolves." Wang Li shook his head.

"So I'm talking about hope." Wang Xu smiled, "Aren't you in a hurry to see the results of your training, you can go on the road tomorrow morning and pull a cart of sickles." ”

"What are you pulling that thing for? If you are reluctant to give the iron tools to Zhai Qiu and them, what will you bring with you those scrapped copper swords and iron swords? Wang Li pouted.

"The sickle is used to harvest the scythe." Wang Xu rolled his eyes.

"I thought you were going to strike while the iron was hot and kill all the way to the Baidi Department of Xucheng." Wang Li also rolled his eyes.

"Don't be a person like you, your mind is full of fighting, killing, and killing, things that can be solved with your brain, try not to use a knife." Wang Xu shook his head and sighed.

"But in the end, you still have to use the knife, why do you bother with all this effort?" Wang Li pouted in disgust.

"That's the difference between humans and animals." Wang Xu snorted lightly, "It's also the difference between civilization and barbarism. ”

"Hypocrisy." Wang Li said with a smile.

"It has nothing to do with benevolence and righteousness, this is called a sense of ritual, if you are all doing things like you and only thinking about using knives, then when do you have to kill?" Wang Xu shook his head.

"I don't care when I kill it, you don't care how I kill it, I can't wait for tomorrow, set off tonight and lend me a holy lamp." Wang Li chuckled and stood up: "I'll go to Tu Shan's lady to ask for horse armor and armor." ”

"Go ahead, try to make the look a little more intimidating." Wang Xu smiled and nodded, lying on the sofa and yawning.

The steel-filling method was very successful, but it was very expensive, and it took nearly half a month and nearly 1,000 people to work hard to refine enough horse armor to cover the whole body of seventy moose, as well as plate armor.

Although there are still a lot of impurities, but the steel that has just been poured and tempered is a very textured gray-white, although it is not as bright and dazzling as the stainless steel of later generations, but the gray-white texture is a bit like the frosted paint feeling of the car.

The moose in horse armor instantly changed from a docile and cute appearance to a formidable steel beast, which seemed to exude a strange luster in the dark moonlight.

The shape of the armor was designed by Wang Xu, coupled with the forging hair inherited by Ou Yezi, although the armor was less than an inch thick, but the defensive power had exceeded half a foot thick bronze armor, named Goshawk Armor.

Because the helmet is poured according to the shape of the eagle's head, the shape of the whole armor is a bit like a standing eagle, especially Wang Li also specifically requested that the feathers of large birds such as red-crowned cranes and white cranes be used to make a cape, so that the overall shape of the goshawk armor is even more sassy.

When seventy heavily armed cavalrymen walked out of the arsenal and appeared in the square, everyone was shocked and bowed down, not daring to move.

The deterrent power that Wang Xu wants is already powerful.

After Wang Li took them around the city coquettishly, before returning to the palace, Wang Xu was already wearing a feather coat, holding a battle flag in his hand and waiting for a long time, looking at them with a smile.

Yu Chun and the others jumped down from the moose without waiting for Wang Li's order, the armor on their bodies made a sonorous sound, knelt down in unison, took off their helmets and put them aside.

Wang Li raised his eyebrows, did not dismount, and watched Wang Xu holding the battle flag more than three meters long, the battle flag was sewn with the fur of three pure white sables, and there was a deer antler monster eagle sewn by Mo Lian himself, which looked very fierce.

Wang Xu slowly walked in front of Yu Chun, handed him the battle flag, and said in a solemn and indifferent voice, "Before I set out on the expedition, I have something to say to you." ”

"Obey the Emperor's oracle!" Yu Chun was already able to speak a dialect that was not fluent, holding the battle flag above his head with both hands, and knocking his head on the ground.

Seventy people kowtowed to the floor tiles, and the sonorous sound of silver armor lingered in the air.

"Take the battle flag, and you should resist the flames of the bitter cold and resist the enemy for thousands of miles! Illuminate the aura of darkness and protect the earth! No matter the wind and water, the frost and blood, success or failure, or imprisonment or death, they are all the backbone of the clan, and they will hand over their lives and honor to the lonely bamboo, and they will rest until death. Would you like to? Wang Xu's voice carried a murderous aura.

With Yu Chun's IQ, he naturally didn't understand what Wang Xu meant, but he couldn't hear it with enthusiasm, and he roared angrily, "For the emperor!" Never give up. ”

Wang Xu pursed his lips, swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, took out the dagger and cut through his fingertips, and the blood dripped on the white and flawless mink banner and instantly fainted, just in the skull of the antlered eagle.

Yu Chun also cut his palm in the same way, but he may be too excited to control the strength, or the hot blood surging in this guy's body is too strong, and the blood is spurting all over the ground, Wang Xu suspects that he has cut the artery.

The blood of the last seventy people completely stained the whole banner red, and the antlered eagle looked more and more hideous.

"From today onwards, you will become an army, and the Iron Kite Rider is your name."

"The kite is the crotch of the god ride, coming and going like the wind, the kite is resolute in the heart, vast and boundless, the longbow and iron sword behind the blade, overcoming thorns and thorns, and the spear in the hand is the edge, invincible."

Wang Xu's voice followed the night wind, accompanied by the iron knight of the kite riding out of the city, and the scarlet and dazzling banner finally disappeared at the end of the moonlight.

After a long time, Wang Xu withdrew his gaze, and the corners of his mouth, which were a little stiff by the night wind, rose slightly, and he murmured softly.

"The iron rider of the kite gallops thousands of miles, shoots arrows into the eight wildernesses, and the gun sets the universe, I hope you can really afford this name in the future."
