Zhao Dutian looked at these cavalry units in the cold weapon era, his face was full of tangled looks, they all looked like good soldiers, but in the face of muskets and artillery, how much combat power could they exert?

Zhao Dutian didn't have a score in his heart......

And most importantly, those cavalry units, with the exception of light cavalry, are simply too expensive!

The gold of more than 100 at every turn has multiplied several times, and a cavalry is almost on top of a small squad of infantry!

It is true that the cost of cavalry has been much higher than that of infantry throughout the ages, but Lao Tzu's gold resources are really not much......

It is enough to recruit a few hundred, but the high maintenance costs, that is, military salaries, cannot be supported by a gold mine alone......

According to Zhao Dutian's elite soldier route, it is naturally the best to recruit that Templar, not to mention anything else, just the fanaticism of the one who fights to the last person, it is worth giving full marks!

Not to mention the army in the era of cold weapons, even in modern society, how many armies can fight to the last man?

Let's just say that the combat effectiveness of that little RB is so rubbish, isn't it on par with the brainless bushido spirit, and the U.S. Army, whose weapons can form a generation gap against RB?

At that time, the RB Army was the standard of World War I in Europe, and it had fought for so long with the US Army, which was not weaker than the German Nazis, and it could only rely on willpower......

Therefore, Zhao Dutian was confident that as long as there were enough Templars, the army of white colonists who fought hard would definitely not be left behind!

It's a pity that the baby can't afford it......

Did these Templars grow up eating gold? It's 5 o'clock a day!

Lao Tzu is fully mining a gold mine, and it is only more than 300 points a day!

Raise 60 Templars and you don't have to do anything else......

Hey, let's be pragmatic......

After all, cavalry is still very useful, if one is not used, Zhao Dutian is called ****......

The archers are really of little use in the era of firearms, so they pass directly!

Heavy armored cavalry, it's too expensive, cost-effective, no one!

The Templars, well, good things, exclusive to local tyrants, not for themselves......

Looking at it this way, only the most inconspicuous light cavalry is the one that Zhao Dutian can use now......

For Zhao Dutian, the Han tribe, which has tens of thousands of acres of farmland, grain is not a problem at all, as long as the golden point does not cost much!

Well, in the era of lining up to shoot, the hussar branch has not been abolished, it must have its use!

Zhao Dutian began to recall the tactical use of light cavalry that he had learned in his previous life, and he weighed it in his heart, and with a wave of his hand, 500 light cavalry walked out of the cavalry camp!

A full 40,000 points of gold were gone......

It can be said that Zhao Dutian's looting of the gold resources of the Harchi Domas has been exhausted!

Hey, I thought that I had obtained 100,000 gold resources at once and could expand it aggressively, but this flower knew that gold was not too much!

It is no wonder that even the Spanish Empire, which had countless colonies and occupied countless gold and silver mines, was in a state of financial constraints!

It is true that there are also elements of corruption within the Spanish Empire, but it is the consumption caused by the perennial war and expansion that occupies the lion's share!

Zhao Dutian didn't know what the situation of the Spanish Empire in this world was, but he knew quite well how the Spanish colonial empire fell in his previous life!

The 80-year War of Independence of the Netherlands kept the Spanish Empire, the most powerful in Europe at the time, in a state of bloodshed, and gave the English Empire, which was a remote Empire, a chance to develop. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It wasn't until the end that the Spanish Empire tightened its belts and gathered the Invincible Armada, dragging the Spanish Empire from the top boss!

At the same time, it also exposed the image of the Spanish Empire as a foreign powerhouse and a middle-class cadre!

The Dutch War of Independence, which was about to be resolved, was once again at a stalemate......

The Habsburgs' dream of dominating Europe was also dashed with the defeat of the Spanish Empire!

However, even after the defeat of the Armada, the Spanish Empire was one of the most powerful countries at the time, and it lasted until the War for the Spanish Throne, when it finally became a second-rate country in Europe!

Because, shortly after the War for the Spanish Throne, the Spanish Empire's colonies in South America launched a vigorous wave of independence, and most of the Spanish Empire's treasury was lost at once!

With the rise of American independence, the Spanish Empire was defeated again in the Spanish-American War, and all the remaining colonies were lost to the new United States, including almost all of the North American colonies and the Philippine Islands!

It can be said that the rise of the United States was built by stepping on the corpses of the French and Spaniards!

Of course, the Spanish Empire in this world does not seem to have really fallen into decay, and the colonies in South America must not be independent, otherwise it would be impossible to mobilize troops from the south to march into California!

It seems that the War for the Spanish Throne will start soon, as long as Lao Tzu survives this round, the colonial empire Spain, which is about to end, will be a stepping stone to Lao Tzu's rise!

This time, you can't let the Yankees pick the fruit, hehe, who said that the Yankees haven't started to become independent yet?

The East Coast during the British colonial rule and the East Coast after the independence of the Americans, the combat effectiveness and fighting spirit are very different!

Zhao Dutian recruited these 500 light cavalry to naturally not use it to fight hard with the Spanish army, but on the morale value of the light cavalry, whether it can withstand the two rounds of salvo fire of the line infantry, Zhao Dutian didn't dare to bet......

These 500 light cavalry have a better and weaker target, and that is the Indian tribe in the California area!

He wants to take advantage of the arrival of the main Spanish army to unify the Indian tribes in California as much as possible and attract a large number of 'cannon fodder'!

Jungle warfare, Indian warriors are still very useful, that kind of crazy fighting, used for ambushes, the Spanish infantry does not have much advantage!

After placing the newly recruited light cavalry, Zhao Dutian immediately turned around and walked towards the arsenal built with the siege equipment!

There is no recruitment of troops in the arsenal, mainly for the maintenance of siege equipment and the manufacturing and research and development of parts, which is considered the most basic research and development department, but this kind of innovation that relies on the craftsmen themselves, Zhao Dutian does not expect them to produce results in a few years......

The biggest role of the arsenal is to maintain and supplement all kinds of siege equipment!

Unlike the Arsenal, the Siege Equipment Station has given several good equipment classes!

After stepping into the siege equipment station, Zhao Dutian once again heard the prompt sound of the newly added troops!
