As the Mongols left the map range of the system, a series of prompts appeared on Zhang Tie's retina.

【Ding! The battle is over! 】

【Ding! 】

A dazzling light appeared on Zhang Tie's retina, this time the loot was surprisingly good, eighteen nomadic bows, eighteen scimitars and five steppe horses, all weapons and horses, no other sundries.

[Prairie Horse: 388 for sale, 28 armor, 40 speed, 40 handling, 29 ramming, 135/135 health, 1 riding skill required.] 】

After putting all the weapons and equipment into his inventory, Zhang Tie chose to exit the loot interface.

The loot slot spun rapidly, suddenly shattered, turned into countless fragments, and then faded away, and the interface changed back to a sandbox template again.

And just as the system was restored to the sandbox template, another prompt appeared in Zhang Tie's retina.

【Ding! Quest Tips! 】

[The Mongols are coming! 】

[Hint: When the popularity is -10, the people will revolt against your rule.] 】

[Mission Status: Completed!] 】

The rich reward made Zhang Tie realize the difficulty of this battle and how lucky it was to win.

If it weren't for the fact that the shield attributes in the hands of the sword and shield soldiers were very good, they belonged to the system, and their personal strength was also good.

Otherwise, once the quality of the shield is not up to par, after being shot by the bow and arrow, or being injured by the force of the arrow hitting the shield, and unable to hold the shield, the end can be imagined.

But now the shields in the hands of the sword and shield soldiers have all become damaged, and the shields full of arrows can no longer be used.

This had to be bought by Zhang Tie himself from the store, because the soldiers who were upgraded this time were all archers, and there were no sword and shield soldiers.

In other words, the current sword and shield soldiers have become big sword soldiers, because there is no shield anymore.

And after experiencing the rain of arrows of the Mongolians today, Zhang Tie also had an idea in his heart, the kind that is imperative.

That is, each sword and shield soldier and cavalry should carry two shields, and all other troops should also wear one shield, so that there will never be a situation where the shield is shot, because it can be exchanged for a shield to resist again.

Moreover, other arms with shields can also protect themselves without sword and shield soldiers, anyway, shields for these soldiers whose attributes are far beyond ordinary people, an extra shield does not feel the weight at all.

In fact, Zhang Tie often used this idea when he played [Horse Riding and Slashing] in his previous life.

Zhang Tie likes bows and arrows, two-handed weapons and riding guns, and uses bows and arrows and two-handed weapons for siege, and riding spears in general encounters, and when using riding guns, Zhang Tie will carry four kinds of equipment on his body, a riding spear, a two-handed weapon and two shields.

Riding spears are naturally used when they are on horseback, and two-handed weapons are used when they are afraid that the horse will die and fight on foot.

As for the two shields, one is usually held in the hand to resist the arrows in front of you, and one is carried behind the back to resist the stray arrows in the back, which can effectively resist the enemy's fire in the game, this genre is called the double shield turtle stream in the game.

However, if Zhang Tie wants to do this, the price is very large.

Generally, the shield built by reality, unless it is built by a master, the quality is average, and if you go down with ten arrows, it will definitely explode the shield, which is still made of the highest materials.

Of course, this does not include the use of iron to make a shield, but this kind of shield cannot be used by ordinary people, and you may be exhausted before you start fighting.

And even if you have a master blacksmith who can forge a high-quality shield, the time it takes to forge a high-quality shield is too long, and it can't be popularized by soldiers at all.

What's more, to make a shield, you still need metal, that is, iron, even if Zhang Tie has opened a factory now, there are captives to collect iron ore every day, but it is still not enough.

Iron is needed for a lot of things, swords are repaired, armor is repaired, arrows are made, and even farm tools are needed, and that little production is barely enough.

If you want to equip more than a thousand soldiers with good iron shields, the raw materials are far from enough, and the time does not allow it.

At this time, it can only be purchased through the system store, and it is obviously impossible to rely on Zhang Tie's own store alone, so it can only be purchased in the system store together with all the deputy generals.

A good shield requires at least 1000 system coins or follow points (Eternal Palace is a special equipment). And the one point of the lieutenant generals requires Zhang Tie to give two system coins to exchange, that is, the lieutenant general buys a shield, which is twice the purchase price of Zhang Tie.

These all have to consume a large amount of system coins, and with Zhang Tie's current economy, if he can buy them all at once, it is far from enough.

Moreover, now Zhang Tie's lieutenant generals are only six people, and each person can only buy an average of ten shields a week, plus Zhang Tie himself, there are only seventy shields a week, and it will take more than three months to match more than 1,000 soldiers with shields.

For the consumption of system coins, Zhang Tie is not distressed at all, after all, this is to strengthen himself, which can effectively reduce the casualties of the soldiers, and Zhang Tie has nothing to worry about.

Looking at the shield abandoned by the soldiers, Zhang Tie secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, the shield of the sword and shield soldiers before upgrading is still there, and they can continue to use it, otherwise they can only make do with the wooden shield first." ”

"Later, I will ask someone to go back to the border city and county to get the shield."

"But in the future, I have to find a way to earn more system coins, and the current system coins are completely insufficient!"

The old equipment was placed in the warehouse in the border city and county, and people could only be sent to transport it.

Reality is not a game, in a game, even if you are shot into a hedgehog or shield in armor during battle, the arrows in the quiver are all shot, and the horses are killed.

But once you quit the battle, everything else is intact except for the damage to the horses, and although the armor that is shot into a sieve will have an additional prefix, such as a sunken one, it may as well continue to be used in the game, and the defense is only a little lower.

The same goes for shields, which are also multiple prefixes and can still be used.

The arrows will also stay in the quiver again, full of them, without any loss.

In reality, when a horse dies, it is dead, and if the armor is broken, it can only be repaired or simply discarded.

The shield was shattered, and it could no longer be used.

Most of the arrows shot can no longer be used.

And this is also the reason why Zhang Tie consumes more system coins than in the game.

Games don't equal reality!
