In addition, this kind of heavy armor is not like steel plate armor, which is the kind of large-area armor, once there is damage, the whole piece of armor must be replaced at once, and because the size of each piece of steel plate armor is different, it is very troublesome to have workers produce replacement armor parts according to their sizes.

The nail is different, the size and specifications of the nail piece on it are the same, and only those damaged nail pieces need to be replaced after damage, which is very convenient and will not cause any pressure on the logistics department. However, this does not mean that Ye Tianlong will not make armor like steel plate armor in the future, after all, although steel plate armor is more troublesome to maintain than zha armor, it is actually better than zha armor in terms of defense and weight, so Ye Tianlong is ready to use this steel plate armor to equip the elite heavy knights, but unfortunately he now has under his hands except for those few team members summoned from the real world, let alone any elite heavy knights, not even a decent cavalry.

In addition to these armors, Ye Tianlong also asked the factory to start manufacturing parts of various muskets and artillery in large quantities, after all, if muskets and artillery want to be used well, they need a lot of training, and in training, there will definitely be consumption, so it is natural to prepare more spare parts.

The other consumable weapon is the grenade, because it uses black powder, so Ye Tianlong and Murong Jie designed it to be very large, and the size is almost catching up with some small watermelons, which also makes this kind of self-made grenade very heavy, and it is necessary to choose those soldiers with high enough strength to be able to throw it.

In order to reduce its weight while ensuring its power, Ye Tianlong and the others are also trying to improve it, such as adding some sharp iron nails and iron pieces to the inside of the grenade, which is what Ye Tianlong did with his homemade explosives bag before.

Because the research has not yet matured, Ye Tianlong is only going to make a few hundred of this grenade for the soldiers to try to use, and then transform it according to the feedback of the soldiers.

And with all kinds of equipment in place, the training of that group of armed men has finally gradually entered the right track, at least now these guys are already able to complete orders such as left and right turn more proficiently, not as at the beginning, left and right, a little command queue will be chaotic.

So Ye Tianlong and the others also began the next stage of training, preparing to let these armed men master the most classic three-stage strike tactics of the flintlock riflemen.

It's a pity that Ye Tianlong and the others have just started this new stage of training, and their camp novice village has encountered a huge crisis.

This morning, Ye Tianlong had just gone online, and a man who went to chop firewood hurriedly ran over to report a bad news to him, that is, in the process of chopping firewood in a woods by the sea, he found more than a dozen large and small pirate ships on the sea.

When Ye Tianlong heard about this, he immediately became vigilant, after all, more than a dozen pirate ships appeared together, and there must be a lot of pirates loaded on them, regardless of whether the other party was coming at him or not, he had to be ready for battle.

Soon, several other team members were also online, and after Ye Tianlong told a few people the bad news, he immediately began to make various pre-war preparations.

Because those armed men are far from being trained, they can only be said to be barely able to shoot, and their melee ability is a complete mess, so naturally they can't be pulled out to fight the pirates in the field, and can only hide in the camp to fight defensive battles.

However, because the city wall has not yet been built, and the camp is bare all around, Ye Tianlong can only ask his men to collect the empty snakeskin bags that were used to hold various building materials before, load them with dirt, sand and gravel, and build them into simple fortifications, and on the periphery, there are several more barbed wire fences with sharp blades.

Just when Ye Tianlong was about to let people dig some more traps on the periphery, the group of pirates had already been killed.

Ye Tianlong checked it with a telescope, and found that the number of the sea robbers was really very large, and after a cursory sweep, this force was at least more than three hundred, which was more than the number of soldiers under the command of Baron Thor.

Moreover, these pirates are extremely well-equipped, at least they have a set of chain mail protection, and some of the pirate leaders are even equipped with heavy armor such as hard leather armor and plate chain composite armor.

At the same time that Ye Tianlong was using a telescope to observe the pirates on the opposite side, among the group of pirates opposite, a pirate leader wearing the same full-body plate armor as King Harlaus and a certain horned steel helmet on his head was also looking at the humble camp not far away, and asked an old man beside him.

"Potts, you old boy really didn't lie to me, that small businessman from overseas is really rich?"

That's right, the pirate leader was next to Potts, the butler who had been banished from his territory by Baron Saul.

And now it seems that he has succeeded in hugging a new thigh, although this pirate king named Abbaton is not a nobleman, but the pirate brother under his command is obviously more than Baron Thor's troops.

And Potts saw that the other party was so large and large-scale, so he had the idea of using it to help him take revenge, and he might have to worry about Saul's baron who was canonized by the king himself, but for Ye Tianlong, a small maritime merchant, he had no worries at all.

In the past few days, he has been boasting about how rich Ye Tianlong is in the hands of this pirate king, and finally made his heart move, and then recalled most of his younger brothers from all over the country in one go, forming an army of more than 300 people, ready to come to Ye Tianlong's camp to plunder.

Abbaton naturally saw that Potts's words were not all true, but now that he had personally observed, he found that the other party's camp did not even have a decent city wall, and there were not many soldiers in it, so he was ready to knock down this camp first and search carefully, if he couldn't find enough property by then, he would slaughter Potts, and make an example to others, so that others would know the fate of the pirate king Abbaton who dared to deceive him.

And Potts also saw the murderous aura hidden in the pirate king's eyes at this time, he raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, and then replied with a hard mouth: "That's right, Lord Abbaton, this maritime merchant is really rich, and the meeting gift to my baron alone was worth tens of thousands of dinars, and I heard that he still has a large number of precious goods shipped from overseas, the total value is definitely more than one million dinars, after doing this, you and your brothers can rely on this money to retire and enjoy the good life of the noble lord!" ”

"Alright! Then I'll believe you for the time being! Abbaton patted Potts on the shoulder and said with a smile.

Then he gave a look to one of the trumpeters beside him, and the other person immediately grabbed a horn and blew it vigorously.

After hearing this low and deep trumpet, those pirates immediately began to assemble, and after a few minutes, they formed three phalanxes that looked a little crooked, and at the same time, they slowly pressed towards Ye Tianlong's camp from three directions.

In the camp, Ye Tianlong and the others quickly arranged the fifty armed men into the bunkers in these three directions, and the six cannons in the camp were also arranged in these three directions.

In the end, Ye Tianlong and the others also made a few simple small catapults for throwing those homemade grenades the size of watermelons, after all, there are really not many strong soldiers in the camp who can play with these heavy grenades!

After arranging all this, Ye Tianlong took Li Rufeng, Luo Chenguang and Zhou Jiale, four members of the team who were better at riding, rode out of the camp on war horses, and quickly approached the group of pirates, ready to ask what this group of pirates was about.

As a result, Ye Tianlong and they just got close to about one hundred and fifty meters, and dozens of archers among those pirates fired arrows at them, if it weren't for Ye Tianlong and their horses, this round of arrow rain alone would probably cause them a lot of damage, after all, the NPC soldiers in this world have a much higher combat IQ than in the original game, and they all know how to predict, unlike in the original game, as long as they run fast enough on horseback, Most of the arrows fired by the crossbowmen will miss.

And in the current situation, at least one-third of the dozens of arrows that were shot successfully hit Ye Tianlong and the war horse that was sitting down.

When Ye Tianlong saw the other party's posture, he also understood that the other party's attack on his camp this time should not be a misunderstanding or something, and the other party obviously didn't mean to talk to him, since this was the case, then there was only a fight.

So Ye Tianlong and the others quickly returned to the camp with the arrows of that body.

At this time, the atmosphere in the camp seemed to be very tense, after all, it was more than 300 sea bandits! And the equipment is very well-equipped, such a large number of pirate gangs are probably enough to storm a town like Odasan, so can those craftsmen and people in the camp not be nervous!

But maybe it's because the war in this world has almost never stopped, so the natives of this world also know that running around at this time will only make them die faster, so no one chooses to escape from the side that is not surrounded by pirates, but they are all ready to fight, and some of the people who were issued steel knives because of their excellent work before, at this time, they have used the tools in the camp to add a wooden handle to this steel knife, It was converted into a long-handled war knife similar to the Park knife, and he was directly transferred from a Minfu to a two-handed hero.

Ye Tianlong saw that these people were so full of martial virtues, so he moved all the armor and weapons he had seized from the warehouse a few days ago, and armed the remaining more than 100 craftsmen and people, lest when those pirates broke through the defense line of the armed people in front and entered the camp, these people were all unarmed and had no power to resist.

Ye Tianlong's approach really gave those folk and craftsmen a lot of security, after all, those trophies that Ye Tianlong couldn't look down on, but in the eyes of these poor people, they were all good things that only those regular soldiers could equip themselves! With these equipment, they are already confident that two or three people can fight to the death of a pirate by joining forces.
