143 Prepare for cavalry

Sword Tyrant asked the spies to continue to investigate the mysterious player, as well as the movements of various villages near Hutou Mountain. Only Zhan Xiaobai, Jian Ba, and Qiushui were left in the conference hall, and they continued to discuss countermeasures.

Jian Ba was a little worried, he was in the hall, and said: "If the enemy does not surface all the time, and always uses some small tricks to disturb us, I am afraid that after a long time, we will be tired and difficult to deal with." If you make a mistake, you may give your opponent a chance to take advantage of it. This means has to be guarded against. What do you say? ”

Qiushui smiled: "The enemy's strength is insufficient, and he wants to deal with us, so he can only use tricks to stumble us." The enemy takes the strange path, let's take the right path. The soldiers are coming, the water is coming to cover, with our strength, what is there to be afraid of! ”

Zhan Xiaobai couldn't help laughing and said, "It's okay, Sword Tyrant should think about how to deal with that hidden troublemaker." Qiushui went to arrange military defense. I estimate that we may not be able to find out a single result in a short period of time, and we must be prepared for a long-term war. As for the rumors that there are treasures outside the village, I'll think about it again and see how to deal with it. ”

Jian Ba and Qiu Shui left separately.

Zhan Xiaobai also went out of the administrative courtyard and patrolled the village to appease the NPC villagers.

Because the river has been cut off, the NPC villagers and livestock have been impetuous, and they have always complained to Zhan Xiaobai and others in the past two days. In order to avoid casualties, after the timber warehouse had a large and sufficient stockpile, all the loggers were already in the village and did not leave the village again.

At present, all the water in the village is completely dependent on well water, but fortunately, 20 wells are enough to use, and one of them is a sweet spring, so it does not cause the NPC morale to drop. Li Ah San has a heavy responsibility and often runs around the village to maintain the stability of the NPC villagers.

Beigong Boyu's Qiang tribe kept its promise, and an NPC Qianghu envoy and dozens of level 50 NPC Qiang cavalry dispatched to escort ten war horses, a full set of horse harness, and ten ploughing cattle to Xiaobai Village under the cover of night.

Zhan Xiaobai had already received a notification from the Qianghu messenger in advance, so that night, he and Qiushui did not go offline, and personally led people to receive the "gifts" to greet the Qianghu messenger, "Thank you very much for the support of your tribe, 10 war horses, this is an extremely valuable material." I ask the messenger to convey my thanks to the Chief. ”

The envoy of Qianghu once received the instructions of Beigong Boyu, knew that this village was very important, and intended to win over, and said with a smile: "Where, my tribe has always attached great importance to friends, and has never been stingy with brothers. If there is anything you need help in the future, just ask, as long as you can help, you will naturally help vigorously. ”

"Thank you so much!"

After handing over the items, the Qianghu envoy pointed to an NPC behind him, Qianghu, and said, "This person is one of the most outstanding jockeys in my tribe, proficient in horse control, riding and archery, and other skills. My chieftain estimated that no one in your village knew how to play equestrians, so he was specially sent to your village to assist in forming a cavalry in your village. ”

Zhan Xiaobai said happily: "This couldn't be better. I'm worried that no one can teach you how to shoot horses, but the Chief is a godsend! ”

The NPC Qianghu jockey stepped forward and bowed: "The villain greets the village chief, from now on the villain is Xiaobai Village, the village chief has a task, just command." ”

"Please, there is a martial arts hall in my village, and now there is only one infantry martial artist. From now on, you will also teach skills in the martial arts hall, specializing in horse fighting. ”

"Yes!"

After these things were dealt with, Zhan Xiaobai personally sent the Qiang Hu envoy and the Qiang cavalry away. He remembered that the player's little wolf wanted to train the dog, so he asked the Qianghu envoy to buy two puppies, a male and a female, and the Qianghu envoy collected 1,000 copper money, and readily agreed, and sent the two puppies over in a few days.

Zhan Xiaobai returned to the village, and Qiushui had already put ten sets of horse harness into the village equipment warehouse, and was arranging for people to drive the cattle and horses to the cowshed and stable.

The players under her command, leading ten war horses, were even red with envy.

The difference between a war horse and a stagecoach is easy to see when compared.

War Horse: Level 30 ordinary yellow and brown horse. It is suitable for players above level 30 for riding battles. Normal speed: 35 li/h, 350 li/d. Horse Skill: Primary Burst, +10% Speed, lasts 1 minute, intervals of 20 minutes. Eat 8 catties of coarse grains and 12 catties of grass grains every day.

Stagecoach: Level 10 common yellow and brown horse. It is suitable for players above level 10 to ride on a daily basis. Normal speed: 30 mph, 300 mph. This horse cannot be used in combat. Eat 5 catties of grass grain every day.

Although there is not much difference in the normal running speed between them, it is clear that the stagecoach lacks the terrifying explosiveness of a war horse. If a player uses a war horse to intercept a stagecoach, a burst of speed can easily rob and kill the stagecoach.

"Oh my God, level 30 War Horse! It's the first time I've been in close contact with a war horse like this, and it's a feeling to "touch" it. A player curiously "touched" the round big butt of the war horse, and the war horse suddenly shook its hind hooves and kicked the player down, "-10HP".

The player got up and yelled angrily, "Damn, slap your ass and kick me." ”

The players burst into laughter and were pleasantly surprised. The level 30 war horse is really strong, and it can actually hurt 10 drops of blood with a shake of the hind hoof. Riding this war horse to fight, I don't know how majestic it is.

A player A sighed: "It's a pity that the level requirements are too high, Khan, Lao Tzu is only level 27, and I don't know how long it will take to reach level 30." When Lao Tzu rode on the war horse, it was estimated that everyone else was tired of riding. ”

A player B said, "Yes, even if there is level 30, can you afford it?" Most of the people who can buy war horses now are very powerful and rich players. ”

Player A said disdainfully: "You also underestimate me, after a while, there will be more horses, and the price will be only four or five copper at most." I'm also the head of a small gang, and I can always buy a horse. ”

"Hey, I didn't know you were the leader. Even if you can afford it, can you afford it? 8 catties of food a day, where did you get it? ”

"This ...... There's always a way. ”

The players talked a lot, although this war horse could not be ridden, but it did not hinder their interest in competing for it. The War Horse Stable is in the middle of the two primary arrow towers, and there are several NPC militia archers, watching and guarding the arrow towers day and night.

After putting the horses in the stables.

Qiushui came to Zhan Xiaobai's side and wanted to ask him how to use these war horses.

Zhan Xiaobai smiled: "There are not many of them, let them be scout mounts." ”

Qiushui disagreed, she didn't want to waste such a rare batch of "high-grade weapons", and suggested: "The lethal effect of cavalry is very significant, and most of the villages currently do not have cavalry, so we can just take advantage of this." So I think we should form a 10-man special operations cavalry team. 10 level 30 cavalry archers can even seriously hit a small village, or a 500-hundred-strong player's pure infantry legion to carry out "riot" operations, which has a very strong diversion effect. And if there are cavalry, if our village encounters a small group of horse thieves, we will also have the power to fight back. ”

Zhan Xiaobai nodded. As long as he can make good use of these horses, he doesn't care too much about what kind of troops he makes them have. After thinking about it, he asked Qiushui's opinion and asked, "It's okay." Then you say, who will lead this cavalry? ”

Qiushui said with a smile: "Brother Bai, this kind of powerful force, it's best for you to bring it yourself." Otherwise, all the elders and legion commanders will have to fight for this force. I can't stop their noise. ”

Zhan Xiaobai smiled and shook his head. He wanted to lead the cavalry in person, but unfortunately he lacked skills, so he would talk about it when he was free. Forming NPC cavalry requires a cavalry talisman, which is not yet available in the village. These ten horses can only be ridden by the player.

He said: "From among the players in the village, select two player teams with high contribution, loyalty, and strong combat effectiveness, and let them transfer to become cavalry. For the time being, I will directly command it, and when the scale is larger, I will form a cavalry corps. ”

Qiushui immediately agreed: "Okay, I'll pick out the player candidates tomorrow and form this force as soon as possible." ”

Early the next morning, Qiushui handed over the list of players who met the requirements to Zhan Xiaobai.

Zhan Xiaobai took a look, there were more than ten player squads in total, all of which were selected from the seven legions of Xiaobai Village. Their level is between 25~29, and their contribution is very high.

Zhan Xiaobai picked out two of the teams with the highest contribution: the Ling Yue team and the Wind Chopping team.

There are two squads on the materials compiled by Qiushui:

Ling Yue's squad, the captain Ling Yue, was originally part of the Young Heroes Legion. There is a strong sense of cover, the Young Heroes Legion leveled up in the abandoned gray "color" Sunshine Village, and once had skirmishes with other villages, they sniped more than ten people from other villages with a small team, covering the legion's actions.

Chopping Wind Squad, the captain Chopping Wind, was originally subordinate to the Qiushui Legion. Use a level 25 hardwood longbow awarded by the quest.

Zhan Xiaobai asked Qiushui to send someone to call the members of these two teams to the administrative courtyard.

The Ling Yue team and the Wind Chopping team didn't understand what to do, and when they were notified, they rushed to the courtyard in a daze, and when they saw Zhan Xiaobai, they all bowed their hands and said, "I've seen Boss Xiaobai!" "What's the matter with the little white boss summoning us?"

Zhan Xiaobai looked at them, Ling Yue, Chopping Wind and the others were all young people in their 20s, wearing strong armor and swords at their waists, full of martial energy.

Zhan Xiaobai went down the steps and said with a smile: "I need a team that I personally command, I don't know if you two teams are willing to be transferred from the original legion to me to stand by at any time." ”

Ling Yue, Chopping Wind and the others were stunned at the same time, surprised: "Little White Boss, what you said can't be true, right?" "The little white boss needs bodyguards?! The Wind Slashing Team is more than happy to help. ”

"I'm not here to be a bodyguard."

Zhan Xiaobai simply told them everything and said, "Our village is about to form a cavalry team of 10 people. Although the number is small, it will be the strongest force in our village. Your two squads have a high degree of contribution and a strong overall strength. However, such a force requires a high level of loyalty, and I don't know how loyal you are. ”

The first cavalry of Xiaobai Village was formed!!

Oh my God, there is such a good thing, and it is really good luck.

Ling Yue and the Ten People of Slashing Wind knew that they had been chosen, and they were already excited and couldn't be suppressed, and they all shouted: "Don't worry, Boss Bai, I'll die to serve you!" "There is no second heart" "Little white boss said a word, and the emperor of the court dared to pull off the horse! "Little White Boss, my Ling Yue team has been staying in the village since it was established not long ago, until it was favored by the young heroes and joined the young heroes legion. We brothers are absolutely loyal to the village and to the little white boss. "Hmph~, my wind cutting team is no worse than you, I followed Sister Qiushui to participate in the first encirclement and suppression of horse thieves, and I almost hacked the horse thief leader to death."

"That's it!"

Zhan Xiaobai nodded with satisfaction. If the loyalty is not enough, Qiushui will not hand over their names.

"What are your levels?"

"Little White Boss, I'm level 27."

"I'm level 28 and I'm about to be 29."

"I'm level 29."

Zhan Xiaobai asked them to be quiet for a while, and said with a smile: "Okay, the level is still a little short of the requirements." You complete two tasks at once, one is that everyone can reach level 30 in the shortest time, and you can find Qiushui to receive some of the "medicine". The second is to find a jockey in the martial arts hall to learn equestrian skills. These two tasks are completed, and you are the first cavalry under my direct command. ”

All the players in the two squads were extremely happy, and immediately rushed out of the courtyard to level up, striving to ride their horses earlier. "Don't squeeze!" "Oops, don't pull me! Ling Yue, you kid, it's yin enough. ”

Zhan Xiaobai couldn't help but shake his head and smile when he saw them being so impulsive. If they're quick enough to escalate. In about two days, this level 30 cavalry will be able to come out.

Li Asan was in a hurry from the outside, almost bumping into this group of spearhead guys, and was startled. Get out of the way, only then did he enter the courtyard, and said with a smile to Zhan Xiaobai: "Lord, the hunter Lu Lao is here." ”

"Oh, Old Lu is here, haha, let's go, let's have two drinks with him."

Zhan Xiaobai and Li Asan came to the tavern and saw the NPC old hunter Lu Shan ordering wine and food. Since Xiaobai Village provided him with free drinks, the old hunter would come to Xiaobai Village once every ten days to quench his alcohol addiction.

Zhan Xiaobai and Old Man Li inevitably had to accompany each other, chatter, deepen their relationship, and by the way, ask the old hunter to "process" a few pairs of hunting bows. The level 20 hunting bow and level 25 enhanced hunting bow in Xiaobai Village are all from the hands of old hunters.

They were all old acquaintances, and the old hunter was not polite, beckoning the two to sit down.
