King’s Kingdom

The scale of Changjianbao is not too small. Four stone towers up to 12 meters stand at the four corners, which are used to detect the enemy's situation and consume the enemy.

It’s just that after the establishment of the Lanyin Kingdom, the role of the castle lost most of its role. After the Longsword Castle was built earlier, the land of Lanyin was still in the hands of monsters. After stopping the pursuit of the north of the Hengduan Mountains, the empire They can't bear the cost of the army's expedition and long-distance travel.

It's not that the money can't be spent, but it's not necessary. Anyway, it's impossible to cross the Hengduan Mountains to sweep the monster's lair, so it's meaningless to spend time and energy to maintain the offensive against the monster.

The land of Lanyin is too close to the Hengduan Mountains, and monsters often escape to find food. It is not suitable for human survival at all without a large army stationed there. The land behind a series of castle defense lines is stable for production and labor. The Land of Lanyin has also become an abandoned place.

Until more than 40 years ago, Duke Cardo led the army and the people to expel many monsters in the land of Lanyin, and established a country here. With enough population and troops as security, Lanyin south of the Hengduan Mountains. The land has finally become a forbidden area for monsters, and Longjian Castle has lost even its final strategic position.

But now, this medium-sized castle has finally ushered in another glorious moment. Seventy thousand troops are stationed here, and a large amount of supplies, food and grass are stationed here. This is an unprecedented highlight.

Theodosius rode on horseback, followed by a marching procession like a long dragon, and the baggage vehicles had already transported a large amount of supplies to their next destination the day before yesterday.

The soldiers didn't say a word, they just walked forward with their heads lowered. In this kind of hot weather, they had to wear armed clothes, which was really uncomfortable. They could only keep drinking water to lower their body temperature. Not at the hottest time.

Because it is located in the north, the really hot summer will not officially start until mid-July, so the soldiers are not affected much, and the real hard time has not yet come.

And when marching, you only need to wear armored clothes, not armor. When fighting, in addition to armored clothes, the soldiers must wear double-layer heavy iron armor, which is really unbearable heat.

The knights walked in the middle of the line, they were very concerned about their horses, and from time to time they jumped from the pack horses to check the horse's condition, and then poured some water to cool it down.

For their partners on the battlefield, these knights attached great importance to them, and they acted as gently as they were facing a bride.

"Rachel, lend me your brush, my brush is new, I'm afraid the hair is too hard, it's uncomfortable!"

"Hey, you just married it, why is it so delicate!" Rachel just finished brushing her high-headed warhorse.

"Thank you!" Another knight took the brush and brushed his horse.

This is a way to cultivate the relationship and tacit understanding between the war horse and the director. If you want to establish a sufficient tacit understanding with the war horse, you must get along day and night and have frequent interactions, so that the war horse can be familiar with you, trust you, and be willing to obey. Your orders, willing to fight side by side with you.

Moreover, the creatures of war horses are quite violent and unruly. Only stallions with enough violent character can make good war horses, because they are often extremely strong and brave. (Unlike reality, war horses in reality emphasize obedience and docility)

In this way, if someone other than the groom rides on the horse, there is a high probability that the horse will not be recognized by the war horse, and the owner of the war horse will have to tame it again.

However, these knights have been in contact with war horses since they were young, and their personal strength is also quite good. They often use their own strength, and use their physical strength to spend four or five hours with the war horse, so that it is exhausted. This is the initial tame.

After establishing the initial obedience, the knight must get along well with his warhorse, cultivate feelings, and let him know that he can be trusted and is its best partner.

Because those who can become war horses are all very strong horses in the population. Generally speaking, they have high self-esteem, are quite arrogant, and at the same time are more cautious.

If you are conquered by force, you may come to you at any time, so it is very important to cultivate feelings.

In the past few months, the knights have all completed these two steps, but the tacit understanding and cooperation between the horses and the knights can continue to grow over time.

After all, war horses are the companion race of human beings. These are the two most harmonious and tacit understanding races. War horses are human, and can feel the clarity of their masters and their goodness to themselves.

"By the way, how is your house, do you feel like sending someone to you?" Rachel had finished grooming her war horse, so she jumped on the horse's back and asked her comrades.

"It should be, my family's land is running out, and several people starve to death every year. If I can send five families over, it can alleviate the situation of more people and less land!" The knight brushed the horse. Mao replied to Rachel again and again, slapping the horse's chest with his left hand.

"My family is similar, but unfortunately, His Majesty has only given places to five families. Otherwise, more people will be brought in to farm for me, and I will be a big landowner by then!"

"That's your house, maybe there are other things that will be sent here besides five families, I'm different, my father is just a knight, it would be good if he can send me five families, so I Gotta get ahead here!"

"Come on together!" Rachel was a little speechless to his comrades-in-arms, and UU reading www.uukanshu.com could only comfort him like this.

"Of course! We'll make it out together! Right?" The young knight brushed his hair, put his face on the horse's head, patted its neck lightly, and returned to the pack horse's back.

"Yeah, it'll come out!" Rachel nodded.

They marched until the evening, and they walked about 28 kilometers. Today's march is longer, mainly because the marching time has increased. The soldiers set up camp and cook food in the dark.

Such a high-intensity march is not suitable to be carried out every day, mainly because the border between the two countries will be crossed tomorrow. He hopes to cross the border as soon as possible tomorrow. In case of a sneak attack, it is likely to be exhausted, and the risk is too great.

Now that I have walked 28 kilometers, I only need to walk another three kilometers tomorrow to cross the border smoothly, and the risk is much smaller.

At night, Theodosius sat in his tent with a slightly crude map in front of him, and he also knew that the reference objects and terrain on it would inevitably be distorted, but there was no way, this was The only topographic map that can be referenced.
