Section 35: Explosive cavalry

Needle was not in a hurry to find Zidhi, he followed Cangxu, and the two of them came to the camp together.

There are many people lying here.

They were all wounded who had just taken medicine recently and were weak and weak.

These people need to be reassured.

"My lord."

"Meet you, my lord."

Seeing the arrival of the Templar Needle, the wounded struggled and wanted to stand up and salute.

"Lie down." The needle extends his palm and makes a downward pressing motion.

"Don't worry, folks. The military flag of the empire is still flying, and the gods of the temple are watching you and me."

"This setback is nothing. As long as you don't lose your life, anything is possible."

"Follow me, and I will take you out of the island and reap glory!"

After giving him some encouragement, he and Cangxu walked out of the tent.

"As long as adults are here, the morale here will not collapse. You are the pillar of our hearts!" Cang Xu sighed.

Needle smiled.

Cang Xu felt it, not pure flattery.

Needle does have such a function.

This is the leader, and this is one of the influences of the strong.

"Of course, what is more important is my identity as a Templar." Needle knows it well.

In the hearts of the people of the Empire, the status of the Templars has always been quite high.

Walking out of the camp, Needle took Cangsu to a nearby hillside.

Here, a very simple thatched house was temporarily built.

Surrounding the thatched house, there is also a fence. In the fence, several bony horned goats are kept in captivity.

These goats were once the leaders of the flock, possessing a bronze-level aura of life.

During the weak period when the exploration team members are taking medicine, these goats will be isolated here.

The person responsible for taking care of the goats is none other than Bai Ya.

Because the young man did not eat mutton, he was not eroded by the chaos magic and avoided a disaster. He got a nickname - Lucky Boy.

Lucky boy Baiya has been busy these days. He not only had to take care of these sheep, but also had to run around for the wounded. Many people were cared for by him and received his kindness, which made him very popular. Among them, Huang Zao had misunderstood Bai Ya before, and after being taken care of by Bai Ya, Huang Zao took the initiative to teach Bai Ya the fighting technique.

Sensing the arrival of Needle and Cangxiu, he quickly opened the gate and respectfully welcomed the two in.

"My lord, I'm sorry, I have let you down your expectations of me. I, I didn't do it......" Bai Ya looked ashamed.

Needle patted the young man on the shoulder and said with relief: "It's okay, I know you've worked hard."

Although the needle was younger than Bai Ya according to age, when Bai Ya heard this, the tension and worry on his face immediately dissipated a lot, and the shame turned into gratitude to Ji Jin.

"Thank you, sir, for being so magnanimous!" Bai Ya said.

The needle waved his hand, signaling Baiya to step back.

He originally gave an order to Bai Ya, ordering the latter to train these sheep with the intention of domesticating them into mounts.

Once this plan is successful, it will be of great help to Needle Gold now and even in the future.

Needle has always been thinking about the sheep cavalry in his heart.

The reason why he gave this task to Bai Ya was because he was alive and not eroded by magic, and secondly, because he was the son of Orion and had dealt with beasts a lot.

But judging from the results now, white buds cannot domesticate these goats.

Needle is not disappointed, his original hope is very small. Usually, this kind of thing is done by the trainer, or the druid does. Counting on a son of Orion, or an ordinary young man, Needle also knew that his idea was a bit unrealistic.

"My lord, my subordinates resign." The white buds retreat.

Soon, only Needle and Cangxiu were left in the fence.

Only then did Jin Jin speak: "Regarding the problem of food shortage, I already have a solution. That is, make a large number of potions for goats to consume, induce the magic in their bodies, and purify all mutton."

When Cangxu heard this, he hesitated for a moment, and then considered his words and said: "My lord, I'm afraid this method won't work. We are able to clear the magic from within our bodies because we are simply being eroded. However, these goats are the source of magic itself, which is part of their lives, like hands, feet or internal organs."

"If we pour potions on the sheep, although a large amount of magic will be removed from their bodies, there will always be some residue that cannot be removed. At the same time, these flocks will also suffer heavy damage, far more severe than us, and death on the spot is the most likely thing."

Needle smiled and looked at Cangxu deeply: "These goats are actually victims just like us. The real source of magic is not them, but the seemingly ordinary grass growing nearby."

The needle was so honest that Cang Xureng was on the spot.

The old scholar looked at the needle, their eyes met in mid-air, the old scholar blinked, and suddenly realized in his heart, and understood the meaning of the needle saying this.

Zhen Jin continued: "Isn't Mr. Cangsu aware of this secret?"

Cang Xu's heart trembled slightly, and the needle kept pressing, giving him the illusion that he was facing a sharp swordsman who was constantly attacking.

The old scholar's face flashed with hesitation, and he replied with a flashing eye: "It's stupid and ignorant, and I didn't notice this secret."

Needle stared at Cangxu for a while, and seeing that the latter had no follow-up reaction, a sense of disappointment rose in his heart.

Needle hummed lightly, turned around slowly, took steps, and walked towards the gate.

Cangxiu followed.

When Zhen Jin was about to open the gate, the cangxu behind him suddenly said: "Lord Zhen Jin, your honesty and foresight are admirable. You have the foresight of an excellent superior. Despite the current difficulties, you still try to build your cavalry. Indeed, the role of cavalry is very large, both offensive and defensive. With an excellent cavalry in hand, you can often take the initiative. However, it seems that these goats are not the best choice for you, and you have a better choice."

"Oh?" Needle put one hand on the gate, turned around slowly, and looked back at Cangxu, "Then let me listen to Mr. Cangsu's opinion."

"My lord, although these goats have a high level of life, they are not natural products and contain huge hidden dangers."

"They can't coordinate their magic powers, and even if they form cavalry, the upper limit is very low."

"In addition, my lord will be in charge of Baisha City in the future, the terrain around Baisha City is flat, deep into the direction of the Wilderness Continent, and there is a vast forest. There are no hills, so it is not suitable for the sheep cavalry."

Cang Xu spoke eloquently.

Needle Jin's face was expressionless, but he recognized Cangxu's words in his heart.

These problems are clear to the needle.

But the point is, what else can he form besides forming sheep cavalry?

Although he is a dignified Templar, even his subordinates have only recently been incorporated into his command.

And once these people leave this island in the future, whether they are willing to continue to follow the needle or not is still a matter of two words.

Cangxu suddenly asked: "I don't know how much the adult knows about the explosive horse?"

"It's a bit familiar." Needle frowned slightly, thought for a while, and suddenly said, "Duke Henle?"

When Duke Henle was young, he was a notoriously sloppy child. His parents died in his early years, and he was deeply loved by his ancestors. However, the Eastern nobles rebelled, and their ancestors were ambushed and killed on the battlefield.

Hengle thus ascended to the throne and became the patriarch. Before he could react, the nobleman's allied forces attacked in a mighty manner.

Henle didn't even have time to grieve, and under the support of the family knights, he served as the commander and led the army to resist the allies.

The two armies were at war, and the knights of the Henle family fought bravely to defend their homeland, but they were powerless and were pushed into a disadvantage and in trouble.

Seeing that the overall situation was about to collapse, the timid Hengle decided to escape secretly in order to save his life.

But when he panicked, he didn't identify the horse clearly and mistakenly got on a fierce horse.

The explosive horse's temperament is impulsive and even crazy. Once provoked, he will fight back desperately, even if he dies.

As Henle rode away, a mistake hit the mount's buttocks.

The explosive horse was immediately furious, ignoring Hengle's shout and the reins pulling, turned around and rushed towards the tragic battlefield where the army was entangled and fighting.

The family army, which was originally demoralized, suddenly saw the "one-man charge" of the contemporary Duke Henle, and was immediately infected by his spirit, roared angrily, and his morale soared, and he launched a fierce counterattack without regard for his life.

The alliance army was caught off guard, and the front line was crushed and became the defeated side.

By mistake, Henle won a key victory and kept the family's territory. This story about him was revealed by him six years later due to drunkenness, so it became widely known all over the world.

Cangxu nodded: "It's the kind of horse that Duke Henle rode back then. If you know the method, you can cultivate explosive cavalry."

When Zhen Jin heard this, he couldn't help but show a look of shock: "Are you sure?"

The explosive horse has a wild temperament, and it is easy to fall into anger, and if it is slightly provoked, it will attack frantically and never die.

But in addition, the explosive horse is very strong, it is very tall, and the horse's head is about one meter larger than most war horses. The hooves of horses were thicker and harder than most war horses, as if they were made of steel.

It is very explosive, and once it runs, it only takes a few breaths to reach the fastest speed.

Not only short distances, but also has considerable endurance in long-distance running.

Although his memory is incomplete, he has common sense, and he deeply understands how important a good mount is to a knight and how huge a combat power increase it will bring.

The height of the explosive horse allows the knight to fight condescendingly. On the battlefield, a slight advantage can make the difference between life and death. The height advantage brought by the explosive horse is more than just a trace?

The hooves of the explosive horse are also very powerful weapons. Excellent cavalry can make the war horseman stand up and use his front hooves to kick the enemy. The explosive horse can kick through the normal iron shield with one hoof!

Not to mention the terrifying power of the fierce horse's muscles.

Such excellent quality has made many nobles or force leaders try to form explosive cavalry.

However, the performance of such cavalry on the battlefield has been poor.

Because the cavalrymen could not control these fierce horses. Especially when this kind of fierce horse is provoked, it will rush towards the enemy desperately, regardless of how the cavalry restrains it.

The explosive cavalry is too easy to mobilize.

A little seduction and provocation can make the cavalry rush in front of you and enter the range of the mage.

Under the bombardment of magic, the explosive horse led the cavalry to take the initiative to die, without fear.

When encountering a slightly more cunning enemy leader, this cavalry will be mobilized to attack your own front and become a pawn in the hands of the enemy.

The advantages of the Explosive Horse are many, but there is a huge flaw that has caused the Explosive Cavalry to gradually become a laughingstock.

But now, Cangxu proposed to Jin Jin to form an explosive cavalry.

Needle stared at Cangxu with sharp eyes, although the time they got along was short, but he didn't believe that Cangxu was a person who didn't know how to measure.

Sure enough, Cangxu added the next moment: "There is a way to let the cavalry basically control the grumpy horse."

"The reason why the Explosive Horses cannot form cavalry is because their temperament is too explosive. But this method can make up for this shortcoming."

"It's just that the fighting spirit technique is still in its infancy, not mature, let alone perfect."

"If you don't dislike it, I am willing to offer your hands."

Needle restrained his gaze and nodded: "Mr. Cangxu, I will remember your contribution."

The relationship between cavalry and mounts is not just a simple riding relationship.

In addition to getting along with the mount day and night, training together, and cultivating tacit understanding, cavalrymen will also use fighting spirit to instill in the mount.

Fury qi shuttles through the mount's body, following the brokenness, making the mount move faster, defend stronger, recover faster, have greater strength, and so on.

When the cavalry charges, the fighting spirit will make the cavalry and mount more closely connected, thus forming a whole.

According to Cang Xu's meaning, he mastered a fledgling fighting spirit technique, using this fighting spirit, he could effectively control the cavalry and not easily make the latter go crazy.

The value of this kind of fighting technique is of course very high.

Cangxu continued: "Master Needle, although these goats have a strong breath of life, they are still monsters in the end. They do not autonomously coordinate the magic, allowing the magic within the body to become balanced and stable. This also means that the cavalry cannot use fighting spirit to instill into the goat's body. Even if you form a cavalry, you don't have much potential and the hidden dangers are great."

"It would be better to use potions to remove the chaotic magic in their bodies, and then slaughter them directly, so as to obtain a large amount of food, and then solve the problem in front of them."

Although processed mutton may still have residual magic, it is risky.

But in the current situation, what else can the entire exploration team ask for?

ps: I recommend a good-looking book - "The Super God Mechanic". The mechanical setting is novel and the atmosphere is relaxed and happy.

Han Xiao, the ash-level power-up of "Sea of Stars", was thrown into the army of crossing by a mysterious power from the east, carrying the player panel to become an NPC, and returned to the "Sea of Stars" public beta before resolutely choosing the most difficult mechanical system.

Battleships lined up across the sea of stars, the stars and mecha were like dragons, the psionic cannons destroyed the heavens and the earth, and there was an endless army of machines, quietly staying in the portable warehouse

One person is the legion!
