Chapter 577: The Griffon's Application (Part I)

"Ha, it seems that this undead royal griffin is just a flight for me to get there as soon as possible when I need to go to Gensokyo alone, and I can't carry too much baggage on my own equipment......" Braving the lingering sun, Feng Longde hurriedly ran back to his personal room where he could enjoy the air conditioning at any time, and the whole person was deeply immersed in the computer chair, and the bracket of the computer chair squeaked, as if it was going to be overwhelmed and broken in the next moment, "It seems that unless I find a way to master the ability to fly in the future, regardless of whether it is a daily trip or in battle, the only reliable mount is the undead war horse......

After learning a lot about the biology of griffin cavalry and various griffons during the Teutonic Empire from the Lich mages, Feng Longde knew very well that this was also a matter of no temper at all: griffon cavalry can be classified as air light cavalry according to their combat methods, and the undead griffin can become air heavy cavalry if they are still alive, but their nature is similar to the Teutonic Tomahawk Rangers, who have standard heavy cavalry equipment but undertake light cavalry combat missions, and cannot form a real air heavy cavalry at all...... In addition, it is not realistic to want the griffin cavalry to be transformed into human bombers, because even the undead griffons reincarnated as the deceased and the undead cannot reach the level of undead war horses, and any kind of bombs, their weight is not light, so even if the griffin cavalry does not wear armor or carry weapons and only carries bombs, at most three or four bombs can not meet the most basic bombing needs. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info This is not a big problem, the biggest problem is, even if you are determined to carry only three or four bombs and ride a griffin to carry out aerial bombing, then where will these three or four bombs be put before they are dropped and exploded? The size of the griffin is quite large, which is good, but it is not as large as the most basic bomber magazine, so you can't use a rope to tie it to the griffin's body......

Therefore, based on the above considerations and actual circumstances, the combat use of the griffin cavalry during the Teutonic Empire was air light cavalry and air rangers. In addition to the vast majority of regular griffon cavalry, some mages also ride on griffons to fight, becoming a veritable aerial magic battery, but unfortunately their number is quite small- Not to mention how small the number of mages is in the total population, even if the number of mages who are steadily increasing is counted in their numbers, there are always a small number of mages who can skillfully use various magic to fight and skillfully control griffins, and mages who have reached a certain level of personal magic are basically able to use a certain series of elemental magic that they are good at to make themselves able to fly freely in the air, which is much more convenient than driving griffins or other flying mounts. Therefore, in terms of the overall situation, there were always a small number of mages who rode aerial mounts to fight during the Teutonic Empire, and only those mediocre magicians who had a decent level of personal magic but were difficult to develop further would choose to learn to control griffins or other aerial mounts to increase their combat strength in a different direction, otherwise who would have so much time to tinker with magic learning and riding training at the same time, two abilities that hundreds of poles may not be able to find, even the deceased who don't have to worry about their lifespan at all are not interested in this。

"It seems that the various griffons in Gensokyo mainly live on the side of Yokai Mountain, and there are very few young griffons who go to other parts of Gensokyo in search of new hunting grounds and nesting areas...... It's a pity that the Revenant Rangers can't be distributed to the side of the Monster Mountain, where the Tengu garrison is quite wary of external movements, and the Lich Mages can't place the Revenant Rangers without alarming them, otherwise I can also know how large the number of various griffons in Gensokyo is......" Standing up from the crumbling computer chair, Feng Longde began to stand in the position where the cool breeze from the air conditioner passed by, and unloaded the special Teutonic Gothic plate armor on his body one by one, " Forget it, if I can find out how many griffons there are in Gensokyo in the future, depending on the situation, I can also catch some griffons for domestication and breeding, and cultivate a griffin cavalry that is specially used to quickly run around the country, but in that case, I will need to recruit the corresponding number of soldiers, I hope Huiyin will not take a head mallet to cei ......me after learning the news."

While looking for a place to put the unloaded plate armor accessories in different categories, Feng Longde slowly conceived these things in his soul heart: although there were no affairs that he needed to pay special attention to all day today, except for all kinds of training and hunting, and he could have a lot of time to move freely, he still couldn't change this habit of thinking about serious things when he had nothing to do.

Thanks to the other levels of administrators in the Soul of Silence that Feng Longde and Caroline have awakened little by little in the past half a month, almost all the administrators at all levels in the Soul of Silence have been reawakened and become corpse witches, and have begun to take over the various affairs that their own immortal monarch originally needed to be responsible for step by step, which has reduced the work pressure of the latter a lot: during the period of the Teutonic Empire, these administrators at all levels could manage all aspects of the original Teutonic megacity in an orderly manner, and now they only need to manage a Teutonic camp that is still under construction and development, and Feng Longde only needs to occasionally ask about big business issues and decision-making matters, and no longer needs to be like before, workaholic to the point of forgetting to sleep and eat...... However, all this is useless, even if Feng Longde is idle, this thing is still used to thinking about a lot of serious things in the heart of the soul that seem to be messy but have something to do with the Teutonic camp, and I don't know if this is the type that deserves to die of overwork......

There's no way, Feng Longde has been the kind of guy who can't be idle, or the type who can't do nothing. Unless this guy is allowed to sleep directly, as long as this guy is in a state of wakefulness, his brain or soul heart will not be idle, even if he squats on the toilet and works hard, there is a great possibility that his soul heart is thinking about some serious affairs related analysis and final decision-making, and there is no one......

It seems that Feng Longde's situation is rare enough, but in fact, almost everyone is in the same situation, and no one's brain can ensure that nothing is thought about for a long time, but Feng Longde is different from most people in that he thinks about either the serious affairs of the Teutonic camp or some tactical applications in the game that he is interested in, and as for the vast majority of people...... It doesn't matter what celebrity gossip is short in parents, there are many people's thoughts that are extremely dirty, and they belong to the level where they can't be directly deleted if they really want to publish it and code it......

"I'm really idle, I don't bother with this, I'll continue to think about it......" Shaking his head vigorously, Feng Longde took out a large bath towel to dry his already sweaty body, and then quietly enjoyed the cool breeze blown by the air conditioner, and still thought about these things in the heart of his soul," However, in Gensokyo, a ghost place where all kinds of high-power demons and monster girls are everywhere, the regular griffin cavalry really doesn't have much significance in forming, and it seems that there is no need to recruit corresponding soldiers from the human world...... Well, you can consider letting the Lich Mages each get a griffon, anyway, there are still few of them who can really fly freely in the air only on their own, and the vast majority of Lich Mages are not bad standing on the ground to fight, if you want to fly, you can't do it, if you are equipped with a griffin, at least it can make them move faster, and it can also reduce the number of times they need to give themselves speed buff magic casts to reduce the purpose of magic loss, the only thing they need to do is to start taking time out every day to learn how to control griffins......”

For now, it's best to have each of the Lich Mages have a Griffon, so that at least the Lich Mages involved in the battle can be formed head-on, rather than having to work together with a regular combat army: even if the Lich Mages have a personal soul strength, In terms of strength and physical strength, they are much better than most ordinary humans, but after all, they are not specialized in hand-to-hand combat, so when the Lich Mage goes to the battlefield to participate in the battle, they will have some regular troops that act together to prevent some enemies from approaching the Lich Mage.

If every Lich Mage had a griffon mount, they wouldn't have to worry too much about their own close-quarters security - griffons are fierce hybrids, with beaks, claws, wings, and massive lion bodies being the griffon's capital in hand-to-hand combat, and according to the practice of the Teutonic Empire, the griffon mounts of the griffin cavalry would be equipped with some additional armor that matches the shape of each griffon, such as a special steel beak on the beak, The lion's claws are equipped with special steel claw sleeves and some steel plate armor accessories are worn on some of the key parts of the lion's body, which greatly increases the griffin's own defense and attack strength, and thus increases the combat effectiveness of the griffin cavalry; Defensive magic or buff magic is sufficient, and with the griffon's first block, the Lich Mage can use the time they can react back to instantly unleash a few useful spells to scorch or freeze nearby enemies into ice, among other things that magic can achieve.

"Well, there's really no other way than to let the lich mages have no one equipped with a griffin......" After enjoying the cool breeze blowing from the air conditioner for a few minutes, Feng Longde, who was cool, directly and habitually threw himself on his big bed, stretching his limbs and muscles vigorously, so that his muscles could fully relax," It's really no fun to form a griffin cavalry that can carry out aerial bombardment, and the weight of the griffin's own weight and the weight of a single bomb are key issues that cannot be solved at this stage...... Alchemy bombs are useless, although many types of alchemy bombs are not small in power and weight, but it is still expensive to manufacture them in batches, and they cannot withstand the wasteful method of aerial bombardment, at most they are only used in small-scale battles...... You can't use cluster grenades, STG39 wooden-handled grenades are still used to equip ground troops, I've never heard of this thing being able to drop from a high altitude to blow people, and it doesn't have much effect......"

Thinking of all the possibilities, Feng Longde found that the safest way he could think of at the moment was to have the lich mages have a griffin in their hands, and there was really no other feasible way.

"Well......" Lying on the bed and thinking for a long time, Feng Longde suddenly had a flash of inspiration: he slapped his head hard and sat up suddenly, "Damn, since it can't be used for bombing...... There are still a lot of ways to provide air fire support, right?"

From a literal point of view, aerial bombardment and aerial fire support seem to have the same meaning at first glance, but in fact, these two are completely different things: aerial bombardment is purely using bombs to bomb enemy targets on the ground, but aerial fire support is not just bombing, such as what rockets and missiles directly hit the target, outer frame machine guns Vulcan cannon for fire coverage and the like abound, and Feng Longde feels that the griffin can have other applications is the latter.

"If only the griffin cavalry is only allowed to wear a fine leather armor and be equipped with an Aramsham scimitar for self-defense, then according to the information obtained from the lich mages, even ordinary griffons, in addition to carrying this griffin cavalry, can also carry a corresponding value of equipment, which is almost equivalent to an MG42 general-purpose machine gun and hundreds of 7.92mm machine gun bullets...... Okay, it's completely possible to assemble a new griffin cavalry equipped with well-equipped leather armor, Aramsham scimitars and MG42 general-purpose machine guns, even in a place like Gensokyo, where high-power demons and monster girls are everywhere, the bullet frenzy from dozens of new griffon cavalry is enough to make the vast majority of goblins retreat...... Damn, the problem is that if that's the case, I still have to go to the human world to recruit a new batch of soldiers, and I hope that guy Huiyin will not use a mallet to turn my head into a ...... of Saqima" (To be continued.) )
