In the army, cavalry is, of course, the eternal mainstream, and the cost is also the highest. And in the pawn, there are also trump cards. The most expensive of these are the crossbowmen and the ironclads.

Both classes are about equipment. Although the materials used to make crossbow arrows are cheap, the finesse is unimaginable. So expensive.

The ironclad of the ironclad is more expensive, and more importantly, the ironclad soldier needs to be extremely strong in order to wear the heavy ironclad and fight on the battlefield.

These two harsh conditions make the Ironclad the most expensive type of infantry.

Liu Bei sits on a county in Xinye and raises thousands of troops, but there is no ironclad army. It's not that I don't want to raise it, but I don't have enough financial resources. After raising 300 cavalry, he could not afford to raise ironclad soldiers.

And Liu Bei's unaffordable iron armor has two hundred pairs here.

This is the real pie in the sky, compared to it, although it is more difficult to exterminate Zhou Shun and others, and some people have been lost, it is nothing at all.

Pick a random water thief, but you can get this amazing harvest. When Liu Feng cried out, he couldn't help but want to exterminate another nearby water thief.

But fortunately, this kind of thinking only existed for a moment, because Liu Feng knew that the probability of hitting the luck was too low.

Even if you wipe out all the water thieves in the world, you may not be able to get 200 pairs of iron armor.

But after the huge pie fell on his head, Liu Feng calmed down incomparably.

"You say those Eastern Tibetan provinces are in the middle of the rivers?" Liu Feng slowly sat back and asked Zhou Shun softly, Zhang Guidao.

The calmness of the present moment is directly proportional to the gaffe of the previous moment. Let Zhou Shun and Zhang Gui be a little confused. But Zhou Shun still replied: "Put it in a wooden box, seal it with a waterproof cloth, and sink it to the bottom of the river near here." ”

Originally, those things were placed on the island, but Liu Biao sent troops three times and twice, intending to exterminate them. So Zhou Shun and the others sank those iron armors to the bottom of the river.

"Then let them continue to sleep, when I don't know." Liu Feng took a deep breath and said very resolutely.

"Why?" Zhang Gui shouted.

This is really incomprehensible, and no general would be indifferent to two hundred pairs of iron armor. But when Liu Feng heard the news, he was not moved at all.

"I have my own troubles, and these iron armors can't be moved for the time being." Liu Feng answered Zhang Gui's question in a deep voice. There is no doubt that he is serious, although those iron armors are good, but they will definitely be confiscated by Liu Bei when they are taken back at this time.

There was absolutely no way he could resist. And for Liu Feng, who intends to build a strong army so that he can stand tall in troubled times, this is difficult to accept.

In this case, it is better to let these iron armors sleep at the bottom of the river first, and when the time comes, they will be taken out and equipped with the whole army.

This is only temporary, Liu Feng told himself in his heart.

Whether it is Zhou Shun or Zhang Gui, they are both very professional soldiers. When the general speaks, they will also hide the doubts in their hearts.

After listening to Liu Feng's answer, both of them fell silent. He didn't ask any more questions.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door. Immediately, Xu Tian walked in. He was followed by a number of soldiers.

"My lord, the gold has been counted, a total of two thousand three hundred gold." After Xu Tian entered the door, he bowed to Liu Feng.

"I know, send someone to take care of it first, and wait for some time to transport it back." Liu Feng waved his hand, indicating that he understood. Xu Tian nodded and retreated.

After seeing Xu Tian leave, Liu Feng glanced at Zhou Shun and Zhang Gui. Seeing that the faces of the two became more and more ugly, the tiredness in their eyes could not be hidden. I couldn't help but say: "Your injuries are not light, go down and rest first." ”

"No." Zhou Shun and the others responded to the order, they knew very well about their bodies, they fought hard and left a lot of blood, and it was indeed time to rest.

After the two left, Liu Feng sat alone for a while, and then sighed.

In the end, it is limited by identity, and it is constrained.

However, this time the troops were just training, but they got so many benefits, and they should be satisfied.

Thinking about it, Liu Feng let out a sigh of relief, found a woman from Zhang Gui, and asked her to arrange the room and prepare to sleep.

About this experience, it hurt my heart too much. Now that everything is over, the soldiers have seen the blood, and they have grown a lot through this war. After the soldiers have turned around on this Du Island, they will rest for a while. Consolidate the lessons learned from this war.

Thinking about it, Liu Feng fell asleep.

In the early hours of the night, Liu Feng was awakened, not by natural awakening, but by being woken up.

I didn't know what was going on in the dark, but the sound of hurried footsteps came into Liu Feng's ears.

"What happened?" Touching the darkness, Liu Feng got off the bed and asked loudly outside.

"Lord Qiyu, just now someone led an army to attack Du Island, but later found out that it was just a misunderstanding. Now Lord Chen is guarding at the door. The voice of a soldier sounded outside the door.

"Palm lamp, I'll go out and have a look." Liu Feng was surprised that someone would sneak attack Du Island. Surprised, I also wanted to see that it was the general under Liu Biao's account. I couldn't help but order.

"No." The soldier outside the door answered, and walked in with a torch.

In the faint light of the fire, Liu Feng walked out dressed neatly.

In the night, under the escort of the soldiers, Liu sealed the hill and walked towards the west gate. There are only two places in the northwest of Du Island that can be entered, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Listening to the soldier's explanation, the comers attacked the northwest two gates at the same time. But the main force seems to be at the West Gate.

Liu Feng walked in a hurry, and soon came to the west gate. At the gate, Chen Da led the soldiers to guard. He has neat leather armor and holds a long sword. The same is true of the soldiers behind him, and there are strong archers hiding among them.

"Who is attacking Du Island?" Liu Feng asked as he approached.

"It's a guy named Ganning." Chen Da couldn't help but reply when he heard Liu Feng's voice. Then he explained it in detail.

Not long ago, a soldier guarding the gate spotted someone crossing by boat. Then he struck the gong and prepared to defend.

As a result, the comer suddenly stopped and did not continue to attack.

After hearing the news, Chen Da immediately rushed over, and after talking to the people outside the door, he learned that the leader of the people who came was called Gan Ning, and Gan Ning explained that they were here to attack the water thieves, and they didn't know that Du Dao had been captured by the official army, or because they saw a "Liu" flag planted at the gate of the camp, so they could not stop.

But even so, Chen Da did not give up his vigilance and continued to be on guard.

After Liu Feng listened, he was a little stunned, Gan Ning? How did this guy end up here?

"Your Excellency. The men outside the camp gate had turned the bow of the boat and were about to leave. Suddenly, a soldier told Liu Feng.

"Let them wait." Liu Feng immediately woke up and couldn't help shouting.
