Zhang Lu's proximity naturally attracted Lao Luo's attention, in the past, Zhang Lu was mixed with Al Heisien, but after arriving in Smyrna, Lao Luo was forced to send an errand responsible for trading goods, "Uncle Longping, is there something?" ”

"San Lang, I heard that we are being targeted?" The matter of being targeted by the cavalry captain of Smyrna was not intended to be kept secret, Zhang Lu knew that it was not a complicated matter, and he could come to ask Lao Luo after learning the news for so long, he already trusted Lao Luo very much.

"Yes, but it's not a big deal." Lao Luo had an indifferent tone, and it was indeed the same.

Faced with Lao Luo's expression, Zhang Lu felt that he might be careless, and couldn't help reminding: "San Lang, although the battle formation of the Western Qin people is average, their combat power should not be underestimated, don't be careless." ”

Lao Luo couldn't help but say: "Uncle Longping, the art of battle formation, the first thing is to know oneself and the other, but now we know all the enemy's tactics, but the other party doesn't know much about us." When the time comes, our men will shoot from a long distance with a hard bow, charge from the side of the cavalry, and resist with the thick shields of the heavy infantry, and then chase and flee with light horses. ”

Zhang Lu was slightly relieved after listening to Lao Luo's explanation, "But I'm afraid there are too many of them." ”

"No, this kind of robbery of business travelers is destined to be deaf to people's ears, so there will definitely not be many people. Moreover......" Lao Luo pointed to the former gladiators who practiced riding from afar, "these guys have basically experienced battlefield killings, and the other party is just officials and bandits who plundered caravans, and the strength of this combat power is really not measured by numbers." ”

"Well, you're right." The expression on Zhang Lu's face relaxed, "I was talking about this with your Uncle Zhan just now, but I really didn't know the bottom of my heart, so I came to ask you." ”

"Hehe, Uncle Lao Zhan and Uncle Long Ping are worried" Lao Luo really couldn't make an apologetic expression, although he said comforting words, he was not a guy who could comfort others.

Fortunately, Zhang Lu didn't care about this, just a little mysterious smile, "San Lang is thirty or three years old this Chinese New Year's Eve?" ”

"Yes, Uncle Longping asked this?" Lao Luo was stunned by the other party's question.

"Have you ever had a wife?" Zhang Lu didn't answer Lao Luo's words, but continued to ask.

"No," Lao Luo understood, this Zhang Lu wanted to be a matchmaker for himself, but now is really not the time to consider this matter, and this era pays attention to the words of the matchmaker of his parents. "I got lost with my parents a few years ago, and I haven't thought about it in the past few years."

Zhang Lu wanted to ask Lao Luo's parents about their condition, but when he said it casually, he couldn't help but sigh, "In this way, I see that you and Siniang are very compatible, Zhan Langjun and I are more optimistic about you, what do you think?" ”

"Uncle Longping, Siniang is indeed very good," Lao Luo said seriously, "but now is really not the time to talk about this matter, I plan to think about this issue after returning to my homeland." ”

"You're right, I'm afraid there will be changes in the last year, and the artisan camp is not at peace." Zhang Lu sighed, but he didn't give up on this matter, "But this matter can be determined, and I will go back to my homeland to handle the marriage for you." ”

"This matter also depends on Siniang's mind, right?" Lao Luo coped with it, and then said: "It's better to wait until Baku to mention it." ”

Zhang Lu went with a head full of gossip, looking at his back, Lao Luo was restless and walked around the playground. Married? Will you be able to return to the world you used to be? If you run to another space inexplicably, wouldn't it delay Siniang, the fire girl? Or will you be able to control this axe yourself much later? Lao Luo couldn't help but cover his right chest, that axe was turned into a tattoo and existed there, it seems that he still has to hurry up and practice Jingyuan Secret Technique, maybe it is the key to uncover the secret.

Not to mention Lao Luo's imagination, more than 100 war slaves have recovered their physical strength and mentality under the generous treatment of Lao Luo, and Lao Luo has never treated them as slaves, more often Lao Luo just treats them as soldiers. Everyone has experienced all this, the communication between people is reciprocal, and Lao Luo's efforts have paid off at this time - all the people are busy, training riding, practicing fighting skills, practicing archery, sorting out armor and horse harness, and no one is idle.

Not to mention the first to follow Lao Luo Naga and Mnaqi, there is no shortage of new people who are very good guys, these two black boys are under a lot of pressure, and they are working hard to learn new things every day, together with Cui Shibalang, who usually likes to rap, is also pulling Nuralman to work hard, how can he not be compared to these guys who have been gladiators.

Lao Luo is very satisfied with this scene of healthy competition, no matter what, he doesn't have to care about the race of his subordinates, these people are the beginning of his Lao Luo's start in Asia, in the era of cold weapons, talent is the greatest wealth, not what gold and silver weapons and armor. And then there is food, with food, you can recruit more manpower, so that more people can survive, so a large part of Lao Luo's space is filled with food, and in the days before leaving Athens, Lao Luo did not buy less food, although the price of food in Athens was not low. The key is that Lao Luo's money is easy to come by, and there is no place in this era that can prevent Lao Luo's professional sergeant, of course, there may be martial arts masters, but at least Lao Luo has not seen it yet.

Zhang Lu cleared all the olive oil and wine in the 300-liter wooden barrels, and then began to buy local wheat flour from Smyrna, of course, local carpets and some fabrics, but considering the low practical value and commercial value, he did not buy more, Lao Luo just proposed to buy some tents and custom sleeping bags and wool blankets, which are not complicated and can be ordered in a short time.

Zhang Lu actually bought a lot of food, except for arranging it to be transported on the road, the excess was collected by Lao Luo into the space, anyway, almost everyone here knew that Lao Luo had secrets, but he was the leader and didn't explain, and no one asked, and this kind of thing is sometimes a good way to increase cohesion.

The horses and camels that were bought were reinstated after a few days of cultivation. This is especially true of the big guys similar to Sharma that Lao Luo is most concerned about, and in just a few days, the originally skinny, high-headed horses have begun to regain their vitality. Fischer, a Norman, spread the word of Lao Luo throughout the ranks of battle servants, so that almost all the tall guys who felt a lot of strength set their sights on these big guys.

When Lao Luo made an inspection and came to this stable, there were more than a dozen people combing the hair of the more than 30 big horses, and the tall horses that were originally skinny and dirty have completely changed their appearance, although they are still a little thin, but they have nothing to do with the word "weak" at all. It seems that the diet is sufficient, the owner has changed, and the demeanor of these horses is completely different, the smooth fur on the body, the mane on the back of the neck has been combed into a braided mane, although the bone points can still be seen on the body, but the muscles have been seen vertically and horizontally, the back of the calf of these horses has the same long hair as the Sharma, but I don't know how the guy who sells the horses said that it was transported from Burgundy, maybe where is the origin of the Sharma?

Many things in history are confused, and the same is true of the records about horses, and there are horses with sharp teeth that eat meat in the wild history, and many things have been lost in future generations, maybe it is another kind of sadness? Who cares.

Lao Luo turned around left and right, and found the tallest and strongest guy among these tall horses, it was covered with brown-black fur, but the back of its neck was very handsome with a white mane, and the calves were also white skin and white long hair, and there was a white cross star out of the wide head, Lao Luo stroked the big guy's head with one hand, and held its thick neck with the other hand, "Fischer, has this guy been chosen?" ”

Fischer, who was standing beside Lao Luo, said respectfully: "It hasn't been assigned yet, boss, you haven't spoken, how can we make a decision?" ”

"Blame me," these big guys are a little special, many people are staring, Lao Luo didn't speak, no one will really make this decision, Lao Luo looked up and saw Stan in the distance, he was in charge of this logistics matter, "Stan, come here." ”

The big Stan plopped and hurriedly ran over, it felt like a short-haired version of a brown bear, but it wasn't an exaggeration, Stan's hair and beard were all brown, and his chest and arms were always exposed, you know, the hair characteristics of Westerners......

"Stan, distribute all the camels and horses, one camel and one horse for each person, and be responsible for their own equipment." Old Luo commanded Stan, and the brown and black horses beside him began to get acquainted with Old Luo, and lowered his head and rubbed his head on his shoulder, "By the way, are these big horses ready with saddles and horseshoes?" ”

"It's all in order, just wait for the assignment, everyone is familiar with the mount, and you can go." Stan, the big man, looks like a rough lion, but in fact he is thoughtful, otherwise he would not have been able to save his life on the battlefield in Bulgaria in the first place, since he took over the logistics clutter, Lao Luo has been much easier, and Mnaki should have learned a lot by following Stan's side.

Lao Luo gave his chosen black horse a name called Heiyun, this big guy is not clumsy at all, although he is tall, but this ** is actually very spiritual, but the amount of food is too large to always be raised as a horse, you must know that this kind of horse can eat thirty kilograms of hay or grain at a time, and the water consumed every day will be more than one hundred liters, which is equivalent to two to three war horses of ordinary size, and its speed is indeed not as fast as that of ordinary horses, But this is like the comparison between the car and the big truck in later generations, in terms of impact power should be the largest except for the elephant, as for the consumption problem, there will always be a way to solve it.

Installed a special huge saddle, Lao Luo stepped on the stirrup and rode on the black cloud with a height of two meters at the shoulder, and turned around the field, the surrounding space seemed to be becoming more open, carrying an iron tire bow, there was an ethereal feeling that the world was in hand.
