Chapter 156: Blood of the Earth
To be honest, Dane didn't know how to lead cavalry. Whether it is the cultivation www.biquge.info and training of cavalry, or logistics support and mount feeding, or leading cavalry in battle, he has little ability in this regard.
Although he didn't really want to admit it, the truth was that if he was given a cavalry, he would be very weak-minded. In his many years of fighting career, he himself did not have much experience in fighting on horseback, and his riding skills were quite qualified, but they were far from his level in foot combat. The experience of leading the cavalry is even more rare. Although the Dread Mercenary Group is still a well-known team, it still can't afford to raise cavalry in terms of the financial resources of the Dread.
Since the dreadghosts have no cavalry, Dane naturally has little experience in leading cavalry into battle. In fact, it's not just the dreada, in the southeast generation of Sindlaire, there are only two forces that can afford to raise a riding class - Morno and Malone. Especially Morno, the white wolf cavalry in his hand is still a special cavalry class.
Still, there was no way to neutralize Dane's vision of cavalry. The role that cavalry can play in war is simply too strong. Ultra-high mobility, the initiative that can be achieved in war, the impact on the front...... All of this makes the cavalry's performance in the war very brilliant.
Not to mention anything else, as far as the warriors in Morno's hands are concerned, there are only two types of troops that can make Dane look at them: one is his heavy infantry legion, the White Wolf Guard. The other is the White Wolf Cavalry Regiment. The latter, in particular, has almost become synonymous with Morno in Hindlaire, and the White Wolf Cavalry Regiment, which has only one brigade and will be more than three hundred men, can make his enemies fearful as soon as he appears.
Dane also wanted to have such a cavalry unit in his hands, but the reality did not allow it. In the future, when his territory is further developed to become stronger, there will definitely be the cultivation of cavalry troops, and this future is not very far away, he has seen the building list of the second-level territory of Orinedu, which breeds mounts and cultivates cavalry.
Therefore, he must learn the skill of leading cavalry into battle. He even had an urge to learn the ability of [Cavalry Expert] right now, but the requirement of five hundred war points calmed him down.
It's too expensive, and after exchanging it, the five hundred war points he has managed to save will be spent all at once; In addition, he had to have a cavalry force.
He looked at the exchange list of the hero traits of the war module greedily, looked at the alluring abilities, and finally could only use his strong willpower to make himself reluctantly close this list - he was very afraid, he didn't hold back, his head was bloodshot, and he directly exchanged it for an ability that was temporarily useless and spent special money, it would be very fucked.
But these five hundred and twenty war points will be spent no matter what. Otherwise, if you stay in the war module, it will just be a useless number, and only when you use it, these precious war points can really become his strength.
He'd already figured out what the first thing he was going to swap out of the war module's redemption list would be.
The soft light flickered, and Dane, who was sitting on the stone chair on the second floor of the Imperial Tower, had an extra long knife in his hand.
"Commander's Blood Blade, a fine-grade Noble Phantasm, worth 100 War Points."
"Sharpness Characteristics: This knife is sharp enough to easily slice through low-tier armor."
"Toughness: The blade is very tough and not easy to break."
"Commander's Blood: Take the lead in the time of war and get a +1 bonus to Strength."
Dane couldn't get enough of the long red knife. The long knife that he had been carrying behind him in the early years and which had given him the name of the [Ghost Knife] was custom-made by a dwarven master who had traveled for him at the time of almost half of his net worth, and the materials were extremely expensive, not to mention the labor value of the dwarven blacksmith - although he didn't ask for a dime, he forced someone to make it for him with an axe.
Still, he had always had feelings for that knife. In the battle with the Earth Elemental Elder, the Ghost Sword was damaged, and he was quite heartbroken. In the next few battles, he casually found a knife to cut people, which was very awkward and uncomfortable.
He had been wondering when he would get a good weapon to use. Unexpectedly, the war module directly gave him a surprise.
These things, which the system calls 'Treasures', are more than just weapons. Dane even saw something that could increase the combat effectiveness of the army when it was equipped. It's not that he doesn't want to exchange those things, it's just that weapons with similar effects are all rare or even stronger, and he can't afford to exchange them for hundreds or thousands of exchange prices.
Among the weapons that could be exchanged, he picked and picked such a knife.
Holding it in his hand twice, he was very satisfied with this red long knife, both in terms of weight and appearance. The bright red blade that almost seemed to drip blood was very domineering and very intimidating, and it was just like him.
"Detected that the player has the Noble Phantasm 'Earth Elemental Heart', is it fused with the 'Commander's Blood Blade'? Estimated level after fusion: Rare. Fusion Price: 100 War Points. ”
Raising his eyebrows, Dane didn't want to choose yes.
A well-calibrated war knife with one hundred war points. A rare-grade battle knife, at least the price is more than seven or eight hundred, and the expensive one can be one or two thousand. Now, as long as you spend an Earth Elemental Heart that you don't know how to use it, plus a hundred war points, you can exchange it for a rare-grade battle knife, and you can't do it foolishly!
It only took a moment for the fusion to appear, and the new sword appeared in his hand.
The styling has not changed, but the appearance looks much more restrained. The bright red turned dark brown and sank a lot, as if the blood had solidified on the ground. He could still feel a solidified earth force from this new sword.
"Blood of the Earth, a rare level of Noble Phantasm, worth 700 War Points."
"Sharp Characteristic: Slightly."
"High Tenacity: This knife is almost impossible to break unless it is against a weapon with a super sharp trait, or if it is subjected to too much force."
"Commander's Blood: omitted."
"Blessing of the Earth: When the player takes the lead, as long as the friendly troops within a radius of 60 meters step on the ground, the earth will continuously send them strength, doubling the speed of physical recovery."

Well...... I'll admit that the updates in the past two days have been a bit unimpressive. But listen to me! (in a hurry)
Actually, in my case, I can still barely maintain it by writing two chapters a day. But the main thing is that the consumption of the manuscript before is more serious, considering that the shelves are imminent, I am afraid that the manuscript will collapse when the time comes, and I am currently holding the manuscript, and I ask for your understanding and forgiveness~
On the weekend, I will have a small explosion, three shifts on Saturday, and two shifts on Sunday.
Also, someone asked where did the dragonmen run away when they hit the convoy? Well...... Can I say I forgot? (crying and laughing~) It's just an appetizer, a hundred orc guards, a hundred hard laborers, and they quickly solved it in one swren~ I didn't think about writing in detail, the key is the war module.
