Text: Empire Battle_Chapter 418 The Big Picture of Transformation

The hoplite phalanx in the video gave all viewers only shock, on the Beacon Continent, when the players in the middle of the continent desperately formed a group army of hundreds of thousands of people wearing iron armor, the Beichen Kingdom of the First Empire already had hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of hoplites. Everyone is not stupid, and the troops that can participate in the parade are naturally the elite units in the national army. There were only 10,000 hoplites, which was easy to recognize. Then there is one point worth considering, there are only 10,000 hoplites participating in the parade, so in the end, is there only 10,000 hoplites in Beichen Kingdom, or are these 10,000 people selected from many troops.

If it's the former, then everyone won't care too much. Hoplites, it's not that you can't build them, the key is that you don't want to smash the pot and sell iron to maintain a hoplite. If it's the latter, it's a bit unbearable. There are only 10,000 hoplites who can participate in the parade, so how many hoplites are there in Beichen Kingdom.

Undoubtedly, hoplites and hoplites can only be possessed by local tyrants at this stage in the Beacon Fire Continent. It's so expensive that you can flip through it. For 10,000 hoplites, the equipment alone is enough to support tens of millions of taels of silver, not to mention the super high salaries of the hoplites. Moreover, the equipment of hoplites is not so simple to build. Even now, Beichen can only have an annual output of 100,000 sets, and as for the rest of the countries, those who can produce 1,000 sets per year can be regarded as a strong country.

100,000 sets of heavy equipment a year sounds imposing, but it was impossible at that time. is talking about an annual output of 100,000 sets, which means stopping all the rest of the equipment and making every effort to build and reload. If it is to ensure that the output of the rest of the equipment does not decrease, it would be good for Beichen to produce 30,000 sets per year. It is precisely because of this that Xiao Chen was stunned and saved up for several years to save such 500,000 hoplites.

The appearance of hoplites is a good demonstration of the strong financial resources of the Beichen Kingdom, as well as the country's military strength.

Soon, the hoplites walked with heavy steps over the 100-meter-high altar and continued to advance towards the front exit.

When the camera shifted to the rooftop, the audience was stunned again. Everyone has a sacrificial rooftop, all players in China, and even players from many countries in Asia have their own sacrificial rooftops, but no one has ever seen a sacrificial platform as high as 100 meters, and the highest one is only a dozen or twenty meters high. 100 meters, well, we're all poor dicks...

Xiao Chen was wearing a dragon robe, and his serious appearance naturally did not escape the shooting of the system, and even gave a lot of close-ups. Especially the serious handsome face, looking at the heavy infantry phalanx below, with the domineering aura that he just had, it really brightened a bunch of dog eyes.

As the hoplites faded away, the system's footage quickly shifted to the next unit approaching.

The whole body was covered in red heavy armor, enveloping the entire soldier's body, revealing only those bright eyes. Even the nose and the lower bar are all covered by the mask that pulls down from the helmet. He carried a three-meter-long mixed iron spear in his hand, and a small iron shield hung on his arm. The horses under the crotch are also dressed in iron vests, with horseshoe wrapped around the hooves, and strong steel leggings on the horses' legs.

Well, everyone can see that the Beichen Empire deserves to be the First Empire, and it is really fucking rich.

Heavy cavalry, this thing is more expensive than heavy armored infantry.

Xiao Chen looked at the array of thousands of horses below, and the corners of his mouth twitched. There's no way, drink money, even when Xiao Chen heard that he formed a heavy cavalry, he was distressed. War horses are selected from millions of fine war horses, and this alone costs tens of millions of silver. Secondly, the heavy armor on the knight's body is not very expensive, that is, several million, but that waistcoat is expensive. Because the heavy armor on the knight's body already weighed forty or fifty pounds, in order to reduce the weight of the war horse, Xiao Chen had to choose lightweight, stronger steel to build the vest.

200,000 heavily armored cavalry, the equipment of all cavalry, including the money consumed to select fine war horses, is not as expensive as the 200,000 sets of horse armor. More importantly, the manufacture of vests has indeed caused a steel gap in Beichen to exist in two years. However, fortunately, because of the large amount of steel, the steel production of Beichen Kingdom has increased a lot, and the manager made Xiao Chen feel that he did not lose too much.

As for the audience, they can only fight the landlord silently in their hearts...

The appearance of heavy cavalry is undoubtedly much stronger than heavy infantry. Especially when the rows of neat cavalry phalanxes, step by step, without the slightest rigor of chaos, let everyone understand that this heavy cavalry is not easy to mess with. The hoplite phalanx is in order, and many countries can do it when they get the past that is still said. But it was really hard to get the cavalry to be in order. First of all, the knight's horse control skills are very good!

Since the development of Beichen Kingdom, although the cavalry is not the most important sergeant force, there are now more than 700,000 cavalry troops. Among them, there were 200,000 heavy armored cavalry, which Xiao Chen specially used to attack the enemy phalanx. Their mission is not the same as that of hoplites, which are more on defense. And they can only attack, and only when they chisel through the enemy phalanx, will their glory appear.

The speed of the heavy cavalry is very fast, and the appearance is also very fast.

While the audience was still immersed in the shock of the heavy cavalry, the system had already tuned the camera to the next entry unit.

The red iron armor on the whole body is unchanged for thousands of years, after all, the national color is red. It's just that, compared to the previous two troops, the shock of this unit is far inferior to that of heavy cavalry and hoplites. But its appearance is definitely the top, and its affluence is definitely luxurious.

The delicate iron armor is like a specially carved one, reminiscent of the good-looking equipment found in traditional online games. The helmet is a phoenix-winged helmet with bird feathers inserted on it, and this red cloth is tied around the neck. Precious red silk was wrapped around his shoulders, and a belt mixed with gold silk was wrapped around his waist. There is a delicate Tang knife hanging on his waist, an iron tire bow on his back, an arrow bag obliquely, and a delicate halberd in his hand.

It looks so handsome, so rich!

This is what all the audience thinks, and it is also where Xiao Chen is most happy. That's right, the style of the armor is the kind of armor style in online games that Xiao Chen specifically found on the Internet. Then the craftsmen made it specially built in the game, and even after it was made of iron, it was polished with sand and stone, and finally painted with a layer of red paint. Needless to say, the gold thread around the waist is a status symbol. And the silk on your shoulder, that's the real good.

The game is not an ancient dynasty, in the game, the big guy is under internal and external troubles every day, and a little money is immediately spent to increase national defense strength. Where will there be time and funds to develop silk cloth? Silk is also the prosperity of Beichen Kingdom in recent years, in response to the requirements of the masses, this has appeared in the market. However, with the preparation and outbreak of the war against the realm of the dead, it has become much rarer recently, and it has reached a thousand gold horses.

However, is Xiao Chen short of money? Naturally, there is no shortage!

And in the case of money, can you wear what your own pro-army can wear? So, with a wave of Xiao Chen's hand, 100 million taels of private property was taken out to buy silk. It is then equipped on the armor created and becomes the standard equipment of the Yulin Army. Fortunately, the Imperial Forest Army only has an establishment of 100,000 people, otherwise, Xiao Chen would really be reluctant.

There is no doubt that the deluxe version of the infantry equipment made all the people watching the video completely dumbfounded, and they really saw what the local tyrant was like...

The people of Beichen who were present to watch the parade were naturally different, and they might not understand what the elite troops were like. However, as long as they look luxurious and beautiful on the outside, in their opinion, they must be very powerful troops.

The deluxe version of the Yulin Army gradually faded away amid the cheers of the people at the scene, leaving only a gorgeous back.

The review troops that appeared later were undoubtedly much worse. These troops are all uniformly equipped units in the Beichen Army, with standard fish scale armor, standard Tang swords, standard spears, standard shields, etc., all of which are the same equipment. The difference is only the difference in combat effectiveness.

It is naturally impossible for the same elite troops in a hundred battles to really have the same combat power, and there will always be a slight gap. However, here, most of the audience are ordinary people and civilian officials who don't understand military affairs, so naturally they can't see anything. And it is even more impossible for the military attache to be idle and have nothing to expose his shortcomings. Even if the troops on the other side are at odds with themselves, it is also a matter for the military attache system, and everyone is unhappy to go back and walk around, and they can't afford to be embarrassed in front of the civilian system.

Players who watched the video on the Internet had another idea, they used to hear that the troops of the Beichen Kingdom had long been equipped with iron armor, but now that they look at it, it is true. And in recent years, although the strength of the big guys has developed rapidly, most of the troops under his command are equipped with iron armor. But compared with Beichen Guoyi, he is still far behind. The equipment is all iron armor, and the Beichen Kingdom has already begun to fully arm the army. Look, the swords and shields are starting to be equipped with crossbows, what kind of thing is this? The pikemen are equipped with arm shields, and the crossbowmen are equipped with spears, Tang knives, and shields.

In other words, the current sword and shield soldiers of Beichen Kingdom can be used as crossbowmen when they are idle. Lancemen can be used as crossbowmen and shield soldiers when they are idle. And the crossbowmen have all three, which is really enviable.

The final finale is naturally the special troops, Taoist soldiers and monk soldiers...

When a group of Dao soldiers flying with edgeworth appeared in the middle of the festival, all the people in the school field were dumbfounded, and they shouted gods one by one. It's terrible not to see, and it's no wonder that the common people are immortals in their eyes. As for those monks and soldiers who sit on the clouds, knock on the wooden fish in their hands, and recite Buddhist scriptures in their mouths, they are considered to be bodhisattvas.

And the big guys who watched the video on the Internet were shocked again. Sword Immortal? Monk? I'll go, is this the world of cultivating immortals? Why do you still have flying things? So how can we play with these poor dicks!

Fortunately, this video is only open to Chinese players. Many Chinese players also know the essence of Sword Immortals and Monks, and don't pay much attention to them.

Is the Sword Immortal powerful? Well, it's really powerful, and anyone who can fly is amazing. However, don't pull it out if you don't have a hundred thousand, if the archers on the ground are dry food, just the dozens of meters of flying, ordinary bows and arrows are fucking like shooting birds, and they can shoot them down. Not to mention, China is still the country at the peak of the development of bed crossbows, and you can carry the bed crossbow no matter how much you have a fork?

As for the monks, hehe... After a few laughs, it's not a big deal, just shoot them all down like shooting birds.

In short, after a video, what really makes the big guy scruple is the hoplites and hoplites in front. These two classes are too domineering and completely unreasonable.

It's good to say that the number of heavy cavalry is small, but once the number is up to 100,000. In this era when millions of troops are concentrated at the beginning of the war, 100,000 hoplites assault your formation, and without the same hoplite defense, it would be strange if you could withstand it.

And the hoplites are even more disgusting, find a dangerous place to go there, and come, see how many of your heads are enough to cut off. Again, without hoplites, don't think about storming a line defended by hoplites. Even if you rush past the line of hoplites, it will definitely not be worth the loss.

The system video officially ended after Xiao Chen's speech. Most of the players who watched were feeling that they couldn't see more. However, it is really because of this video that countless players have reported to the game company, hoping to record the process of those epic battles in the game into a video and provide it for everyone to watch. The game company thought about it, yes, there was another good place to make money, so "Beacon Continent" once again set off a wave around the world!

Xiao Chen in the game naturally didn't know that the system had sold him and the military parade of Beichen Kingdom to hundreds of millions of players in China for ten yuan. Now Xiao Chen looked at the crowd that had begun to disperse under the order maintained by the soldiers, and he was naturally relieved in his heart.

Anyway, the whole process was perfect. The only pity is that only the navy did not participate. This is also a matter of no choice, the current three major naval fleets have their own military bases, and the distance is too far. In addition, the three fleets have their own tasks of expanding their maritime borders, so they are not on the agenda. Similarly, this is also a lot of concealment for the military power of the Beichen Kingdom.
