Breath of the Dead
Chapter 1427 Air Light Cavalry (please subscribe for more)
He waved at the wyverns, and all of them landed on the ground.
When they landed, Gu Xi noticed that when the wyverns landed on the ground, they all stretched their large wings to the ground to prop up their bodies, while the small wings retracted to protect their abdomens.
Gu Xi circled around the wyverns and focused his attention on the larger ones.
Gu Xi said a few words to his undead, and several undead quickly brought some iron blocks.
Gu Xi asked the undead to put them on the backs of the wyverns one by one.
After putting on the weight of 400 kilograms, the larger wyverns could still easily fly in place and fly in the air in a fairly stable motion.
This made Gu Xi understand the characteristics of these wyverns.
"Take down all the iron blocks and come and get the zombies."
Gu Xi ordered quickly.
What happened next also satisfied Gu Xi.
Having a zombie sitting on its back will not have much impact on the wyvern. The wind blowing in the face cannot blow the zombie down from the junction of the neck and shoulders of the wyvern.
At the same time, this wyvern does not have the idea of rolling up and down. When flying, it mainly flies straight.
When rising and falling, it relies on the pair of small wings on the abdomen.
The main thing is to highlight the word "stable".
After letting the zombie sit on it and fly for a circle, Gu Xi replaced it with the heavily armored Gladiator Black Guard.
If it weren't for the fact that the Crimson Knights and other troops could not change their mounts at will, Gu Xi even wanted to replace them.
After two or three experiments, Gu Xi had already recorded the corresponding data.
A larger wyvern can carry a weight of about 400 kilograms.
If it exceeds this weight, the wyvern can also fly, but it basically cannot take off from the ground and accelerate in the air.
At most, it can only fly steadily at one speed.
If the weight exceeds one ton, the flying speed of the wyvern will be as slow as a normal person walking there. If it increases a little more and reaches one and a half tons, the wyvern will not be able to fly directly.
So in order to ensure that the wyvern can fly freely, the weight of the cavalry on its back should not exceed 400 kilograms.
This weight is actually just stuck at Gu Xi's bottom line.
When the wyvern came out, Gu Xi thought about adding a layer of armor to the wyvern.
But after calculation, the added defense effect of leather armor is not very good. If a layer of iron armor is added, the weight will directly exceed 400 kilograms.
This makes it difficult for Gu Xi to arrange cavalry on it.
So this plan can only be abandoned directly.
But once the armor plan is abandoned, only one cavalryman is placed on the back of the wyvern, which is somewhat wasteful.
In this way, Gu Xi will not be able to do anything.
After hearing about Gu Xi's situation, Princess Anna also ran over with people.
She circled around these wyverns, and then came to Gu Xi endlessly.
"My Lord, this is a very good mount."
"Yes, but my train of thought is interrupted here. What do you think?"
"It depends on what kind of flying unit you want."
Princess Anna's ideas are relatively simple. "The main functions of flying units are just a few, air scouts, air raids, air assaults, bombings, air-to-air, and transportation.
This large-sized wyvern can actually do any of them, but none of them can be done well.
It depends on what you need."
"Air combat, air-to-air, the kind that can fight three at the same level."
Gu Xi thought about it and made a decision immediately.
It's not that Gu Xi doesn't want other directions, but air-to-air is the part that Gu Xi lacks the most now.
Gu Xi has gargoyles for air scouts, and can use undead dragon troops for air assaults and bombings. It's a complete waste to use this wyvern for transportation.
And this wyvern can't be invisible.
Then air-to-air combat naturally becomes Gu Xi's only choice.
"Then what we need to consider next is how to fight air-to-air.
There were so many more fear bats in the city before, and their appearance made you want to train air-to-air flying units, which shows that you are dissatisfied with the air combat capabilities of the fear bats.
You are practicing outside, what are you dissatisfied with?
Flying speed, flexibility, or other aspects?"
"How should I put it? Lack of coordination. When the fear bats fly into the sky and release the fear scream, they can still fight in unity, but when they really fight, they don't have any coordination.
They fight each other, and can't catch up with the enemy. When fighting, they can't advance or retreat in place, their teeth attack is not good, and their bite force is insufficient.
This thing has problems everywhere. If there is no choice, I really don't want so many fear bats."
Gu Xi immediately told the situation at the time.
When Princess Anna heard it, she thought about it seriously and finally gave her own opinion.
"Well, now that you mention it, there are really a lot of problems.
But you can try to put some mechanical crossbows on the back of the fear bats. I remember that the puppets under Eve can do it.
Oh, by the way, we talked about the wyvern.
According to what you said, the cavalry you want should be soldiers who can fight on the back of the wyvern, not decorations riding on the back of the dragon.
In the air, you can either hold a spear and use the flying speed of a wyvern to charge straight ahead.
Or you can hold an axe and jump in front of the enemy in the air to fight.
Or you can fly with a bow and arrow or other long-range weapons. Of course, I personally think that bows and arrows are better.
Among these three types of troops, you can consider the sky combined with jumping battles. "
Listening to what Princess Anna said, Gu Xi thought about it seriously and found that these wyverns were really suitable for doing this.
The main feature of these wyverns is a stable flight. It can be said that they fly in the sky more steadily than ships sailing on the sea.
If there are well-trained undead soldiers, jumping from one wyvern to another should not be a problem.
If the stability of boarding in the sky can be guaranteed, then it will be possible to quickly descend on the enemy's back.
If these soldiers can also have a certain ability to glide in the air for a short distance, the situation will definitely be better.
An idea flashed through Gu Xi's mind, and his hands were not idle either. Instead, he quickly told Princess Anna about his ideas.
"Yes, the undead have everything. If it doesn't work, they can be transformed. If it doesn't work, they can be trained. Our idea belongs to the scope of melee light cavalry. If you don't force the ability to glide in the air, the skeleton soldiers in the city can do it.
If there is a need for glide in the air, low-level vampires will become a suitable choice..."
