Lord of Riders

Once Shao Yu's school was established, it caused a huge response. The residents of Calradia have never seen a school open to civilians. In addition, they have never heard of the courses offered by Shao Yu School.

The few schools on the Calradia continent are aristocratic schools, teaching culture, aristocratic etiquette and other things, and only the children of aristocrats can enter.

The children of some wealthy people want to educate their children by themselves or hire private teachers. Ordinary poor people just learn how to do some farm work.

Therefore, once Shao Yu's school was established, a large number of citizens came to sign up immediately. However, Shao Yu still has very strict requirements for recruiting students.

For long-term development, Shao Yu continued to refine the school. First of all, all students must learn words and culture, while students aged six to ten years old can only learn culture, and those aged ten to fifteen years old You can choose scientific research and military command. After that, we will develop in two different directions. After studying scientific research, we must engage in research on new weapons and equipment, while those who study military command can become officers. People between the ages of fifteen and twenty-five can choose freely. The older Shao Yu no longer accepts. Unless there is a special talent.

Shao Yu wants to cultivate more talents for himself, and these infants and young people are more likely to have admiration. Shao Yu wants to ensure that these people will basically be loyal to him in the future, and he must control their thoughts.

Shao Ming’s work was carried out in an orderly manner under the auspices of Shao Yu. Two months after the armistice, Shao Yu finally successfully brewed high-density alcohol from wheat. After some refining and distillation, Shao Yu finally managed to brew high-density alcohol. Highly concentrated alcohol is extracted.

The success of alcohol brewing made Shao Yu excited and immediately ordered mass production, but Shao Yu did not say anything. After all, these new weapons of the Shao Ming Kingdom are better kept as a secret.

Shao Yu expanded the army again in this period of more than a month. The Shao Ming Kingdom has always paid great attention to civilian military training. In addition, the Shao Ming Kingdom is relatively prosperous, sufficient in food, and mostly meat-based. Most of the male civilians in the Shao Ming Kingdom are now in good health. Compared with the hungry people in other kingdoms, it is a world of difference. The high-quality troops of the Shao Ming Kingdom make the expansion of the army very easy. At the same time, it also ensures that the combat capabilities of the recruits are also first-class. Not even inferior to some veterans in other countries.

The Shao Ming Kingdom expanded its army to 20,000 horses two months after the armistice, of which cavalry accounted for half. The number of Modao knights directly under Shao Yu increased to 1,000, and each Modao knight was equipped with an armored war horse. The remaining 9,000 people were mainly wearing thick leather armor, using Kujit bows and nomads. Light cavalry units with scimitars and light lances.

The Kujites’ natural riding and shooting skills allow them to develop combat effectiveness without much training. However, these soldiers have been trained for three months. All of them are qualified cavalry fighters.

Due to the limited steel production capacity of the Shao Ming Kingdom, Shao Yu has not been equipped with armored cavalry. The chain armor produced is used to equip infantry.

After two months of production, there are now nearly 7,000 iron armored infantry in the Shao Ming Kingdom. The army is also equipped with as many as three thousand crossbows. These crossbowmen were all placed in the iron prison to the west. The current Tie Lao Pass can really be called the largest pass on the Calradia continent. Not only is the terrain difficult, but the height and thickness of the city wall, the number of crossbowmen, and the source of troops are all top-notch.

However, peace will not last long.

After two months of peace, the horn of war sounded again.

The Nord Kingdom suddenly raised 200,000 troops and launched another aggressive war. Among them, the number of armored infantry was as high as 100,000. The Nord Kingdom stormed Rivadin with lightning speed. In just two days, Rivadin declared its fall. , Prince Vidim led less than a thousand people to flee. The residents of Zivadin fled and were massacred by the Nords.

Two days after breaking Zivadin, King Ragna declared the destruction of the Kingdom of Vegia. Prince Vidim fled to the kingdom of Swadia and was taken in by King Harous. Immediately after one hundred thousand Nord troops fought against the Kingdom of Swadia, another fifty thousand horses approached the Kingdom of Shao Ming.

The smoke of Tie Lao Pass ignited high, and the news that the Nord Kingdom sent troops to approach the Shao Ming Kingdom soon reached Shao Yu. Shao Yu summoned a number of important officials of the kingdom as soon as possible, Lord Ubai, Eleon, Wayne, James, Balhu and others all went to Aichamore to hold a pre-war meeting.

"Look at the battle report. The Nord army needs to invade our country. According to the spies, there are 30,000 people in the light armored infantry" Ren and others looked at it, and at the same time there was a hint of anxiety in his tone.

"This time, the Nord soldiers are different from those of Kugit's guerrillas. Siege is their strong point. We can't take it lightly." Although Shao Yu said this, he did not have the anxiety of Lord Ubai.

"I will immediately lead all the soldiers to the Iron Prison Pass, ready to meet the enemy," Allen said immediately after hearing this.

This time the Nords’ offensive was too fierce. There were more than 30,000 defenders in Zivadin, and they declared the city to be broken after defending for less than two days, which greatly shocked the countries.

Nord soldiers did not know where to get such a large number of chain armor, 200,000 infantry soldiers even equipped with nearly half of the chain armor. Such sophisticated equipment doubles the combat effectiveness of Nord soldiers~www.wuxiaspot.com~100,000 pairs of chain armor require dozens of tons of steel, which is a very large number for the low-productivity continent of Calradia. Adding helmets, weapons, etc. add up to hundreds of tons of steel.

But the kingdoms of Swadia and Shao Ming were too late to be shocked, and the Nord army had already reached their door.

Once Zivadin was broken, the army of the Nord Kingdom immediately invaded the Kingdom of Swadia. King Haraus immediately held an emergency pre-war banquet in Palavin, and ordered his vassals to immediately lead the army to gather. Prepare to deal with the invasion of the Nord Kingdom.

The total strength of the Swadia Kingdom has now recovered to more than 100,000, but the territory of the Swadia Kingdom is too vast, and the army that can be assembled to deal with the Nords is only 50,000.

Shao Yu felt more and more strongly that there must be a greater force behind the Nord Kingdom supporting them. Otherwise, the Nord Kingdom could not have assembled such a powerful force in such a short time.

But Shao Yu is not too worried about the invasion of the Nords at this moment. Shao Yu had enough confidence in his heart that with only 50,000 Nord soldiers, it might not be so easy to break through the iron prison.
