Chapter 94: Jinghu Water Division

Next, Lin Yuan released a horse market bounty in the territory again.

The content of the reward is very simple, that is, the purchase price is 2 times the market value, the better the quality, the higher the price, and there is no limit to the type of horse, the time limit is half a month.

He wants to set up a general horse farm within half a month.

As soon as the news came out, it directly alarmed all the large business groups in the territory.

2 times the purchase price, that is, a northern horse breed, is worth 4 taels of gold!

The profits can be much higher than other businesses.

These large merchant groups began to invest in the introduction of horses from other places.

Soon, half a month passed.

Zhuge Liang selected 5,000 elite sailors in Suizhou City, and selected 5,000 people from the city guards to enrich the Suizhou Xiang Army.

He personally led the elite of 5,000 sailors to Yunmengze and handed them over to Wei Yan.

And the 20,000 reserves in Yingzhou are also in place.

The Sailor Battalion was formally established.

Yan Zhao Wushuang's 8,000 Mongolian horses were successfully transported and received by the people sent by Lin Yuan.

At this time, 8,000 horses had arrived in Wushan City.

Lin Yuan took Yuwen Chengdu and Zhao Yun to check.

After a round of inspection, Lin Yuan suddenly had the urge to scold his mother.

TMD, Yan Zhao Wushuang, this old boy, is too calculating, the Mongolian horses sent are mixed, thin, and all of them are ordinary, which belongs to the lowest grade of war horses.

Lin Yuan decided that the next time he saw him, he would definitely scold him severely.

However, he himself is no better.

Those 100 iron guns are not a good thing, they can be easily blown up.

The two of them can be said to be half a catty, don't say anyone.

However, the 500 Youzhou white horses given away by Yan Zhao Wushuang for free are all good horses, and the average grade is high-quality war horses.

Lin Yuan didn't bother to pay attention to the quality of the horse.

As long as he has the [Iron Eating Beast God Bone] attribute, he can improve the quality of the horse again.

Yan Zhao Wushuang could not have dreamed of this.

In addition, he has purchased as many as 10,000 horses through the horse market.

Among them, there are 8,000 Jianchang horses in the Southern Song Dynasty, and the average grade is high-quality war horses.

There are about 1,000 Western Xia horses, all of which are ordinary war horses.

There are 1,000 mixed-blood horses in the Jin Kingdom, and they are all ordinary war horses.

These 10,000 war horses cost him about 60W taels of silver.

Lin Yuan moved all 18,000 horses, along with 5,000 horses from the cavalry battalion, to Mulan Horse Farm.

After arriving at Mulan Racecourse, Lin Yuan immediately found that the grass in this pasture was more colorful than the grass in other places, as if it was flashing with spiritual light.

23,000 war horses, after being put into the Mulan Racecourse, is extremely comfortable.

Many of the horses that were originally sick and sick, after arriving here, ate a mouthful of water and weed, and actually began to run with their hooves.

And those short Jianchang horses, after eating the grass in the racecourse, their body bones have obviously grown and become a little majestic.

Lin Yuan knew that this was the Iron-Eating Beast's divinity taking effect.

All the horses, the quality is raised a notch.

Ordinary war horses become high-quality war horses, high-quality war horses become stubborn war horses, and stubborn war horses break through to good horses.

Even some good horses have evolved in the direction of BMW.

Lin Yuan sat down with sweat and blood, and after eating the aquatic plants in Mulan Racecourse, the spirituality in his eyes was even more sufficient.

Ten thousand horses galloped wildly on the plain, and the scene was very spectacular.

After staying at Mulan Racecourse for a day, Lin Yuan set off again.

This time, the cavalry of the cavalry battalion were all replaced with the best war horses, the stubborn war horses of the lowest grade.

As for those low-grade war horses, they stayed at Mulan Racecourse.

The longer these low-grade war horses are kept in captivity at Mulan Horse Farm, the higher the quality growth.

Wang Anshi has selected 500 herdsmen to take care of the remaining horses.

These herdsmen, who belong to the lord's office, do not need to farm, and their only task is to take care of the war horses.

After leaving the Mulan Racecourse, after walking for a day, Lin Yuan arrived at Yunmeng Daze, the sailor camp.

The construction of the water division camp has been completed in a hurry.

Wei Yan led the sailor battalion to settle in and began to practice intensely.

And not far from the camp, Li Bing and the people of the Ordnance Department were also processing and making all kinds of ships and warships.

Large quantities of timber arrived here.

There are also more than a dozen small red dragon boats moored on the water, and on the lake not far away, there is a large building boat that is stepping up to work, and hundreds of craftsmen are busy in full swing.

The overall progress of the project is not bad.

"The last general, Wei Yan, meet the lord!"

After seeing Lin Yuan, Wei Yan looked extremely excited and knelt on one knee.

He is a general, and he doesn't think he will be too important, but Lin Yuan actually reused him again and again, without avoiding suspicion, and even promoted him to the deputy commander of the Navy Division, and let him command the entire Navy Division battalion.

This kindness touched Wei Yan very much.

"Wen Chang, please get up!" Lin Yuan helped Wei Yan up, looked around at the sailor who was practicing, and nodded.

In just a few days, the sailor has begun to take shape.

Wei Yan is not a loss in the late Shu Han Dynasty, which can be comparable to the existence of the Five Tiger Generals.

【Jinghu Water Master】(2nd Order)

[Level]: Level 18

[Attack]: 18 [Defense]: 18 [Speed]: 11

[Equipment]: Underwater Chisel (Silver Level), Delicate Ring Head Knife (Silver Level), Daming Cotton Armor (Silver Level), Sharp Spear (Silver Level), ......

[Skills]: Wave treading, diving, water fighting, and primary firearms mastery

The attributes of the sailors do not seem to be inferior to the infantry at all.

This group of sailors, among which 2W people, is blessed with the Flame Bear Totem BUFF, and the Three Emperor Statue BUFF, so their physique is very good.

Coupled with the equipment given by Lin Yuan, all of them were top-grade silver weapons.

The armor on their bodies is all freshly produced Daming cotton armor.

The Ming Dynasty cotton armor is the standard armor of the border army of the Ming Dynasty, covered with a layer of leather cloth, filled with cotton, and inlaid with iron sheets, fixed with rivets.

This kind of armor is very light in texture, a set is only more than 30 catties, only half the weight of the Song Dynasty's infantry armor.

Wearing it, the soldier is more flexible.

Moreover, it has a strong defense against firearms.

It also protects itself from the cold.

Lin Yuan purchased 200,000 units of cotton from 'Little Saint Fan Li', all of which were used to make Daming cotton nails.

For the Ming Dynasty cotton armor production technical manual, he directly spent 10W points of merit.

During this time, 50,000 pairs of cotton armor were finally produced.

After the cotton armor was manufactured, Lin Yuan first equipped 25,000 sailors.

The rest were equipped with the Tiger Battalion.

Only the Longxiang battalion is still wearing the Song Dynasty infantry armor.

Lin Yuan's three battalions, the equipment at this stage is only silver-level.

Silver is still the mainstream equipment.

The 2,000 pairs of gold armor he pit from Zhong Ziang's hands, as well as the 320 pieces of gold equipment dropped during the event, were all used to equip the cavalry battalion.

In Lin Yuan's subconscious, the cavalry battalion will always be his most elite unit.

In addition to being equipped with advanced cotton armor, the sailor's skills are also different from those of the infantry.

Treading waves, diving, and water fighting are all skills that sailors must master.

In addition, there is actually a primary firearm mastery, which is beyond Lin Yuan's expectations.

With the mastery of primary firearms, sailors were able to use rockets and fire crossbows.

If you want to maneuver iron artillery, you need to upgrade to intermediate and advanced firearms mastery.

Lin Yuan just had a way to solve this matter.

He took out all the skill stones obtained from the gluttonous activities, including 3,200 primary skill stones, 4,500 intermediate skill stones, and 6,000 advanced skill stones, so that the sailors could quickly level up.

Soon, out of 25,000 sailors, 3,200 sailors had their skills advanced to intermediate firearms mastery.

Intermediate firearms mastery, already able to operate iron artillery.

These 3,200 people did not stop, continued to use intermediate skill stones, and continued to improve.

Once again, 450 people stood out, and their skills were upgraded to advanced firearms mastery.

Master advanced firearms, be proficient in operating iron artillery, and use thunderbolts.

Lin Yuan did not continue.

He put away 6,000 high-level skill stones.

This kind of skill stone is extremely precious, and even if you have money, you can't buy it.

Therefore, it must be used where it is needed most.

For example, promote some high-level craftsmen and let them grow into grandmasters.

It is better to let them grow their own skills, so that they can help in future battles.
