26. New recruitment
Put the horses aside.
It was already dark, and there were four figures in a row under the trees.
Zhang Qi lifted the animal skin bag and poured water with it.
The climate in the world of riding and chopping is comfortable, and they have been running for half a day.
The trail horse running at full strength was terrifying, and in just a few hours, he had covered at least one hundred and eighty miles, passing through four villages.
This time, he was lucky enough to recruit two NPC soldiers from the four villages, including one of the noble troops he had in mind, the Praetorian Guard.
That's right, it's the initial class of the outfit boy he envied before.
Although it doesn't look very remarkable now, when he upgrades to his final form, that outfit will definitely sweep through the battlefield of this era.
In addition to the [Praetorian Guard], the other one is still the same as the crossbowman who is still in the outside world at this time, and is an Imperial recruit.
With two more manpower, Zhang Qi was very happy at first, at least this time in addition to the dinar, there were other gains.
Spreading out the cloth map, Zhang Qi and them at this moment are directly above Nuotai, almost forty miles away from Nuotai.
The horses are already rested, and they need to hurry.
"Everybody get on the horse! Let's go! ”
After washing his face with the water in the water bag, Zhang Qi greeted him.
The three NPCs didn't need to rest, and when they heard Zhang Qi's words, they instantly turned over and got on their horses.
Cluck-and-da-da-clad –
The sound of horses' hooves sounded again, and the target was Notai.
Riding on the horse, Zhang Qi was still thinking about the goods that came in this time.
The four villages that passed through Livatea and Malatea were both specialized in iron ore, and Zhang Qi bought them all and used his two-handed sword as money.
And along the way, I also met a lot of caravans, and I bought some from them more or less.
This has not sold out the two-handed sword, and there are more than 100 pieces of iron ore on his body.
It may take a few more days for Zhang Qi to finish selling the two-handed sword, and then he can go to the village to wander around, and maybe he can buy a batch.
Thinking about things, the off-road horse and Zhang Qi had arrived at the city of Nuotai, and night had fallen, Zhang Qi took someone to sell a batch of two-handed swords in his hand, and then went to the blacksmith shop.
It's late today, it's unrealistic to hurry, so I simply continue to strike iron, speaking of which Nuotai is still the place where he first prostituted charcoal for nothing, and it is also fate.
Now that fate has arrived, it would be impossible to say that Notai is not as individual as Epiclothea.
With a wave of Zhang Qi's hand, several NPCs immediately turned into the demolition office with him, and as long as there were good wood products for each family, they were all sent to the blacksmith shop.
Zhang Qi smelted charcoal, Suojiaer smelted iron, and the two cooperated seamlessly.
Until the moon rises on the branches.
The blacksmith shop, which had been disturbed by the sound of iron, was quiet.
"Whew, it's okay, there are more than a dozen more, which can be regarded as an increase in income."
Wiping his sweat, Zhang Qi let out a sigh.
Back to Notai's tavern, it was as empty as Epiclotea, and Zhang Qijie's first tavern was here.
After saying hello to the tavern owner with a smile, Zhang Qi went upstairs and prepared to sleep.
Early the next morning.
Zhang Qi got up from the bed, as usual, first went to the outside world to take a look, and if there was no problem, he continued to stay in the riding and slashing world.
Zhang Qi, who reappeared in the upstairs room of the tavern, shivered, it was still late at night outside, it was very cold, and there was no problem.
went downstairs to wash, hastily coped with the food, and gathered people to set off again.
Villages, towns, Zhang Qi led people to shuttle to various places, and in a few days, he almost cleared out his two-handed swords, and there were only about a dozen left.
And when he consciously looked for small-scale bandits, new Imperial recruits and [Praetorian Guards] were also upgraded.
However, the noble cavalry upgrade is really expensive, in addition to the normal upgrade cost, you also need to buy additional horses, such as the traveling horse pack horse is not enough, it must be a horse with a mount entry. p1
And with each level, new horses are needed.
Is it handsome?
Handsome!
Take the money in exchange.
Looking at the [Praetorian Guard New Army] who had been upgraded to a heavy rider, Zhang Qi still felt that it was time to give him a name, otherwise it would be too troublesome to call him in the future.
And this is also their first noble class, which has commemorative value.
Since the hoplite rider rides a horse, carries a spear, and is a noble soldier, then call him ...
The horse is expensive.
Zhang Qi used his brain a little and set a name for Ma Gui.
In fact, he wanted to call him Ma Changgui at first, but after thinking about it, he decided to streamline it.
The road back to the city was extremely easy, except for walking around the village to find recruitable soldiers and the existence of chickens, ducks and geese, Zhang Qi's other thoughts were on the outside world.
There are only a few hours left before dawn outside, and Zhang Qi can stay in the riding and slashing world for about three or four days at most, and it is time to lead the group of people from the outside world to set off.
Because of the extra group of wolf cubs, Zhang Qi's movement speed in the outside world is not fast, and it can even be regarded as slow.
So Zhang Qi was thinking about whether to bring those wolf cubs into this world.
In addition to shortening the time it takes for them to grow, it is more important to start training earlier.
Zhang Qi knew that the era he was currently in was the Western Han Dynasty, but he didn't know exactly what time node it was.
However, judging from the situation of the Xiongnu, the all-out war of the Western Han Dynasty against the Xiongnu has not yet begun.
He still has time to develop.
Along the way, he collected iron ore and looked for soldiers to recruit, and by the time Zhang Qi returned to Epiclotea, his pack horses had more than 500 iron ore on their backs.
The number of people has also increased from three to four.
Don't look at it less, it's not good to recruit it.
In addition, he did find chickens, ducks and geese, in fact, there are them in every village, but the number is very small and he has to look for them carefully, and this time he came back, he brought about ten of each.
Fortunately, the system creature didn't make much noise along the way, otherwise his head would have hurt to death.
Entering the town, Zhang Qi actually had a feeling of being at home, taking a long breath and tasting the smell of this town where there are no wood products.
"Wolf King!"
Before Zhang Qi and his party could go far, a happy greeting came from afar.
Zhang Qi turned his head to look, and several wolf cubs ran over with sweat on their bodies.
It can be seen that they have a very self-disciplined physical exercise every day.
And they seem to have grown a little bigger, and their physique is much stronger, and they have a lot more meat than when I first met them.
is no longer skinny and bone-like, especially Hu Er, who has received sufficient food and nutrition, and he is now starting to bulge like a balloon.
At about ten years old, he looks like he is seventeen or eighteen years old.
