Chapter 69: The Horse Trainer

Liu Feng was very happy, and he was so happy that he couldn't find the east, west, north and south, only 10 miles away, but it wasn't until Bai Jian returned to the city with a large number of captives that he met them halfway.

Hearing that he had returned victorious, Liu Feng breathed a sigh of relief, he felt very tired, looking at his physical strength, there was only 10% left. Back in town, arrange the night defense, and let everyone go to rest. Except for Yun Ao, who was the last to participate in the war, everyone felt extremely tired.

Early the next morning, Liu Feng gathered his generals and prepared to pursue the enemy. Yesterday, because it was getting late, some of the people who had surrendered before fled by night, and they will be arrested again today.

Liu Feng roughly calculated, he only captured about 3,000 prisoners yesterday, including two first-order generals, one of whom was the owner of the village, in addition to those who died in battle, there were about 3,000 people in the defeated army, and there was also a second-order village master.

Baizhen also suffered heavy casualties this time, about 700 of the 2,000 defenders of the city died, and the remaining four or five hundred people were still being treated for their injuries, and the minor injuries had already reached the city wall again. The 1,500 people who led the army to attack by Bai Jian are less than 1,000 people who can still act today, and most of them are wounded, but the 500 bandits in Yunao have not suffered much loss, and there are more than 400 people.

"Let's go!" It was Liu Feng who was still defending the city, and Bai Jian and Yun Ao went to pursue it together. The city was defended not only by the remaining seven or eight hundred people, but also by a village warrior. The so-called Xiangyong is not the name of the army when Baizhen was still Baijia Village, but a group of people who were specially recruited during the war to govern the people with military or combat experience and serve the army in combat. Of course, if it comes to a critical moment, taking up arms can also help defend the city.

This day, Bai Zhen was very busy, a large number of prisoners were waiting to be dealt with, a large number of wounded were waiting to be treated, and the doctors of Bai Zhen were too busy to deal with their own wounded. As for the captured wounded, they haven't surrendered yet, so let's wait first.

Wang Hua had already advanced to a senior political general, and was busy recruiting prisoners, and after recruiting people who were willing to surrender at one time, he began to surrender one by one; Bai Wen was busy naturalizing these newly surrendered people, identifying captured auxiliary talents, and was also responsible for counting war losses, and the cause of education could only be put aside temporarily; He Yun was busy directing those who had just surrendered to build the city walls damaged in the war, in Liu Feng's opinion, they destroyed them anyway, of course, if they wanted to repair them, it would be free......

Liu Feng constantly patrolled the city wall, although he believed in Bai Jian's ability, but what if the system did not play cards according to common sense and had an accident. So every time there is a battle, Bai Zhen releases a large number of spies to monitor the movements around him, even Aoshan City, which has nothing to do with Bai Zhen.

Obviously, Liu Feng was too worried, and knew that until Bai Jian returned with a large number of prisoners in the afternoon, there was no accident. The second owner of the snow cottage had the intention of making a surprise attack, but unfortunately he had no one in his hands.

Yesterday, the bandits fled all the way, but found that the pontoon bridge had been destroyed, in desperation, some people continued to flee to the mountains, the other part was exhausted, I don't know where to find it and fell down and couldn't walk anymore, and some of them gathered in the ruins of Mengshan Village, among which there were two village owners.

After all, the lord of the second village is the leader, and he has gathered some bandits in the temporary stronghold, and there are only seven or eight hundred people. These people were hungry and tired after a day of fighting, and in order to escape quickly, they lost all their weapons and armor, even if the second village master wanted to boost their morale, there was nothing they could do.

The Qiankun bag in the hands of the owner of the second village has a space of three feet square, which is several times larger than the Qiankun bag that Liu Feng got, but it can't hold many things, and there is even less food, at most enough for him and his guards to eat. Even if the snow cottage is a medium-sized cottage, not everyone has such a thing as storage equipment, and there may not be any high-level generals, let alone high-level generals.

After some searching, there were only five or six people with storage equipment, and only two of them had food in the storage equipment, after all, no one would have nothing to load a large amount of food in a limited space. In this way, I accumulated dozens of catties of food, and I made do with everyone to drink gruel together in the evening. At this time, the owner of the second village did not dare to be angry and eat alone. So the idea of integrating the team was given up by the second village master in such an environment.

So when Bai Jian arrived on the morning of the second day, these people didn't even have the intention of resisting, so they surrendered directly in a shout of "surrender or kill". The owner of the second village knew that he couldn't escape, and he didn't resist much.

The largest batch was solved, and the rest were scattered and escaped. These basically don't need to fight, as long as they are found, they are the end of surrender, and even some bandits can't stand up because of exhaustion after finding them. When it was dark, it was only about 2,000 people, and the rest disappeared.

But the scattered bandits of about 1,000 people will not play a role. The search will continue, and those who fled outside the mountain are also waiting for Aoshan Town, and this bandit attack is over.

The harvest was when Liu Feng was most excited, when the soldiers were cleaning the battlefield, watching batches of weapons and armor transported to the warehouse in the city, Liu Feng couldn't stop smiling. In addition to the damage sent to the blacksmith shop, tailor's shop, and carpentry shop for repair, Bai Zhen has built several warehouses for storing weapons and armor.

A few days later, the statistics came out, and a total of nearly 5,000 prisoners were captured, hundreds of people were seriously wounded and died, about 3,000 surrendered to Baizhen, and more than 1,000 prisoners of war. Not surprisingly, none of the three high-level generals joined White Town.

In terms of drawings, only one architectural drawing of the archer camp was collected, which made Liu Feng very strange, if Bai Zhendu already had so many archers, why did he need any architectural drawings? After Bai Jian's explanation, he learned that those archers were just infantry with bows and arrows, and they could only use bows and arrows, and only after being transformed or recruited by the bow battalion were regular archers. In other words, if there is a military camp, only infantry can be trained, such as regular weapons such as sword and shield soldiers and pikemen, such as archers and cavalry, and corresponding military camps. As for why this is so, it can only be said that it is arranged by the gods.

Liu Feng understood, that is to say, even if they captured more than 200 horses this time, they still could not train cavalry, but a group of infantry on horseback.

There are also many talents in various professions, such as cooks, architects, shipbuilders, carpenters, etc., all of whom are auxiliary personnel brought by the bandits. What made Liu Feng even more excited was that there was actually a horse trainer.

Name: Maas

Profession: Junior Horse Trainer

"Great!" Liu Feng exclaimed, throwing aside the frustration of learning that he had just learned that he could not build a cavalry.

It doesn't matter if there is no cavalry for the time being, with a horse trainer, you can breed horses first, and raise a large number of military horses first. When the time comes, the infantry will be equipped with horses, first familiar with horseback, and when there is a cavalry battalion, a large number of cavalry can be directly transformed.

Immediately, Liu Feng studied with everyone, chose a place, built a livestock farm, and sent Maas to domesticate horses. To this end, he also sent 100 soldiers to be responsible for the safety of the livestock farm to prevent wild monsters from attacking.

With a livestock farm, all the wild horses and bison harvested during the hunting of wild monsters in the future will be killed without worrying that they will not be tamed. Horse trainers are not only able to train horses, but all kinds of domestic animals can be trained. But if it's not a domestic animal, but a wild animal, you need a trainer.

Urgent training was needed next, and no matter how big the victory was, it was undeniable that Whitetown's army had lost a large number. It takes time to recruit new soldiers and retrain, and even if the people of the Snow Mountain Village are willing to join the army, these people cannot be sent to fight the Snow Mountain Village in a short time.

There are also 500 people supported by Aoshan Town, and only more than 100 people are left after the war. When sending them back, Liu Feng was not stingy and gave a large amount of pensions and weapons and armor. This made Wei Ju satisfied, and even Wei Ran wanted to come to support in person next time.

The people in Baizhen all know that after suffering such a big loss, Snow Mountain Cottage will not give up.

More than 3,000 people were recruited, and the population of White Town was full again. After digesting the fruits of this victory, White Town can advance to a large town. So with a wave of his hand, Liu Feng built another village around the livestock farm, which was dedicated to raising horses, and upgraded Sanhe Village to a large village.
