With the dwarves' towering Workers' Republic and their strong production capacity, Jian Chen was finally able to equip his Lord Guard and Harmondale Guard according to his vision.

At this time, the Great Lord Chen Jian had no shortage of money in his hands, just a large amount of treasure and gold coins seized from Baierdes's anti-bandit operation. It's enough for the lord to squander a good look.

Although these trophies actually have a lot of credit to the army sent by Mrak, since the bloody conflict between the Emperor ** team and the Thor trolls was caused by Bremer's relationship, and Mlak's hostility towards Chen Jian was exposed, Chen Jian made up his mind to swallow these trophies alone

。

In addition to the generous pension promised to the Imperial soldiers in his own private capacity. He didn't even send a single gold flat to Mrak.

Give the fat you get to someone who is hostile to you? Chen Licai doesn't do such a thing, anyway, the sorghum has already been born. It's okay to settle a little more, it's not too much debt.

There is money immediately. Of course, we must find a way to turn this money into the strength it deserves, otherwise no matter how much money there is, it will just be a fat sheep to be slaughtered.

Equip your own army. Chen Jian didn't feel sorry for the money at all, not to mention that the price given to Chen Jian by the dwarves was preferential and preferential.

The Hammondale soldiers had an almost complete makeover this time. Except for the heavy abandonment dwarf, the people can't imitate it. All other equipment has been updated.

The spears of the military spur version are all remade, although the craftsmanship of the old Saida is not bad, but there is still a big gap compared with the dwarves, and the military thorns made by the hands of the dwarves are not only sharper, but also more durable.

Armor. The leather armor originally purchased from the Empire has been completely eliminated, and now the soldiers are all full of steel armor, not to mention the exquisite style, and the defense is even better, plus the matching steel gloves, steel leggings, steel combat boots and steel mask-covering helmets, plus a steel shield, the humans and big-eared monster infantry in Hammondale have all become shiny metal monsters.

However, this heavy infantry was not yet the most defensive force under Chen Jian, with the strong financial support of the lord. It was Bruce and the fifty Thor-troll warriors of his clan who joined the Lord's Guard that they truly became literal humanoid tanks.

Specially tailored for the Thor trolls of large full-body steel armor will have been accustomed to be in a state of semi-naked green giants tightly wrapped, successfully completed the great change in dress style, with the support of natural divine power, these specially customized steel armor thickness is quite amazing, coupled with a huge steel shield that can almost be used as a door panel for ordinary people, and the inherently strong regeneration and recovery ability, Thor troll warriors have all become almost unkillable horror monsters.

In terms of attack, the Thor trolls each have a mace designed especially for them by their lords. This already extremely lethal weapon is even more hideous after being magnified. And the many sharp protrusions on the huge shield also make it a weapon for the green giants to attack and defend.

The flying stones of the Thor's trolls were also replaced by the lord with hard edges and corners, these special iron balls were smaller than the original flying stones of the Thor's trolls, but the weight and lethality were a higher level, these iron balls were placed on the waist of the same special steel armor, which was very easy to access, and each Thor's troll warrior was equipped with twenty such long-range weapons.

Along with the Thor, the trolls were freed from the half-naked state of more than twenty centaur warriors, who were now also custom-made chain mail, and even their bodies and legs were well protected, and they were still at ease when they were used to helping the elven army carry heavy loads, and they would be accompanied by more than thirty human cavalry riding horses captured from Bairders. Become a fairly important cavalry in Chen Jian's hands, this cavalry team is all equipped with chain mail. It is equipped with a new type of cavalry scimitar designed and made by the lord, which is called a saber by the lord, and is very suitable for chopping on horseback, and is extremely sharp.

At the same time, they also had a cavalry spear in their hands, but these were not their main weapons, under Chen Jian's arrangement. A precise bow is the weapon they rely on the most.

These high-quality composite bows made by Medusa that Jian Chen had commissioned the caravan to buy from Negan had a fairly good range and extremely high accuracy, and they were not inferior to the elven longbows at all. The centaurs and cavalrymen began to use bows and arrows under the guidance of the Half-Elves and Medusa, and they would use this compound bow to become a heavy cavalry archer.

Another heavy cavalry is also actively formed, the new saddle of the boar after several improvements finally completed, after the installation of the new saddle, the knight can finally do very well on the back of the pig, because of the huge size of these boars, good endurance, good load, but also because of the amazing explosive power can charge in a short distance. It was regarded by Chen Jian as the best mount for forming heavy cavalry.

More than a hundred human and big-eared monster soldiers were selected to become the first group of Harmondale's hoplites, their water barns, equipped with lances, sabers, and knightly steel shields, as well as a mace against heavy infantry. The wild boar under their crotch is covered with a special chain mail that makes it easy to move.

It is worth mentioning that the sharp fangs of the wild boars were also used by the lord, and he specially ordered some knives that could be fixed to these fangs, so that the pigs were literally armed to the teeth.

And the wild boars did not live up to the high expectations of the lord. In a special test, these wild boars with incredible endurance were fully armed and carried equally heavily armed cavalry, and ran at normal speed in the field for most of the day. Only because of fatigue that I had to rest, I can be called a load master and a pig-shaped weight

。

Medusa and the dwarves were organized into two special squads by Jian Chen, the Medusa were dressed in fine and sturdy chain mail, armed with precision bows, and their melee weapons were equipped with shields and scimitars; The dwarves still wore full-body steel armor, but at Jian Chen's behest, they had to learn to use heavy crossbows in addition to their favorite battle axes and shields, as Jian Chen believed that their innate divine powers had an unrivaled advantage in quickly reloading bows and crossbows.

Even the equipment of the mage squad has been replaced, and these robber mages have been asked to take off their mage robes and replace them with leather armor that is more defensive and does not affect the casting of magic, and now they have nothing to show their mage status except for the intermediate staff that Chen Jian has commissioned a caravan to buy from Bracada.

This incident made the magicians depressed. Coupled with the daily running and fitness, they were a little skeptical that the lord had decided to let them all turn into light infantry who used magic techniques to knock people because their mana was too low.

Jian's series of outfit changes caused discontent among some of the new alien soldiers in the defense team, such as the dwarves who objected to the lord's request for them to use heavy crossbows

。

"My lord, the use of bows and crossbows is against the traditions of our dwarven people! We like to fight the enemy face-to-face rather than hiding behind and putting cold arrows! Trust us, you won't be disappointed with our melee abilities! ”

The centaur soldiers were also a little puzzled by the lord letting them learn to bow and arrow.

"My lord, the centaurs on our continent of Erathia do not use bows and arrows, and it is our tradition to use spears, and only centaurs on the continent of Enlos use bows and arrows."

Finally, the robber mages plucked up the courage to ask Philip to help them plead their case: "My lord, I know that you have made us strengthen our physique and wear leather armor to better protect us, but we are mages after all, and this is really against the tradition of the glorious profession of mages!" ”

Chen Jian was quite annoyed by all these statements, so he specially gathered all the soldiers and brainwashed them: "Don't always talk about tradition in front of me!" What is the tradition? Tradition is nothing more than a habitual practice that has been used in the past! I respect your traditions! But the world is changing every day, and we can't afford to rest on our laurels! Old things can be left behind. There must be advantages to it, I know that! But we can't give up accepting new things just because the old things still exist and there are good things! Otherwise, how do we adapt to the changing world? How can we survive in this world?

"I won't say it far away, many of you have been to Bailders with me, and you have seen what happened to the dwarves of the hills, all hoplites, all warhammers and battle axes, no cavalry, no long-range means of attack, this is their tradition, but what is the result? Without the cooperation of other arms in the past, they were so powerless in the face of the enemy's flying troops! I almost went extinct for this reason! It makes sense to stick to such a tradition

"If a tradition is no longer suitable for the needs of the times, it should be resolutely broken! Let it be history of the past! Make it a wonderful memory for us! Then, we create new traditions! Have you ever thought about it. What you do today may be a tradition in the future? Have you ever thought about it. New traditions are slowly being established in your hands! ”

"Now all we're doing is trying! But as long as we succeed, we can prove that our change is the right thing! Once the changes we make become a habit and spread, they will become a tradition in the distant future."

"And you, under my leadership, are breaking with old traditions! Then use the spirit of taking its essence and removing its dross! Establish a new tradition! ”

"This will be our own, drawing on countless lessons from the past, suitable for the changes of this era, and a new tradition that will make us stronger!" If you want to know what happened next, please log in to the old chapter for more, support the author, and support genuine reading
