Lord of Riders

Chapter 88: New army

   As for whether such a system would make other lords unwilling to join the Shao Ming Kingdom, Shao Yu did not want to think too much.

   "Regardless of whether they come or not, what I want is talent, not a nobleman who eats dry food"

   Lord Ubai asked this question, Shao Yu said disdainfully

   It’s not uncommon not to want to come to Xiaoye. This is Shao Yu’s attitude. My subordinates have followed me for a long time, and even capable people can't make arrangements. How can I arrange for those noble lords that no one wants. When Shao Yu was in Schulersburg, he was still encouraging other lords to think about him, but now he has his own territory, and he doesn't bother to take care of how Shao Yu is viewed by others.

  The lord is afraid that no one will do it? Shao Yu thinks about his subordinates, Batu, Kane, and Cusa who hasn't found where they are. They may not be worse than these pampered Sirs.

   Shao Yu, Lord Wubai and others looked at the enthusiastic applicants below, very happy.

   The place to sign up is the Arena of Aichemore, the arena is very large, with a radius of 200 meters in size, and now it is full of people.

When    finally ended, nearly nine thousand people had already signed up.

   Shao Yu wants to form a new army of 5,000, including 3,000 urban defense forces and 2,000 field troops. These are Shao Yu's direct troops, the army of the kingdom rather than the private lord.

   The two armies have a clear division of labor. As a field army, Shao Yu has to choose the best equestrian soldiers among them. Shao Yu took over Aichamore, and the cavalry equipment was naturally indispensable, each with a lance and a nomadic scimitar. A cavalry shield, nomadic armor, leather boots.

  The best armor in the Kujit army is undoubtedly the equipment of the Kujit Lancers, but the inventory of Aichemore is limited, and Shao Yu only spelled out two hundred sets, which were used by the veterans with the strongest combat effectiveness.

   Each of the city defense forces had a Kujit bow, and there were enough arrows. The storage of Aichamore's weapons is quite abundant. There are 6,000 horses alone, 200 sets of Kujit Lancers, 3,000 sets of nomads, 3,000 sets of nomadic robes, 4,000 nomadic scimitars, and spears. Two thousand, four thousand Cougit bows, one thousand war bows, five thousand bags of ordinary arrows, two thousand bags of Cougit arrows (the arrows are sharper and more durable), and three thousand light cavalry shields Faces, cavalry shields with two thousand faces, and more than four thousand weapons such as short swords and short swords.

   In order to support Lord Ubai’s battle in Ichamore, Saiga Khan once transferred a large number of weapons and equipment to Lord Ubai. But I didn't expect that they all fell into Shao Yu's hands in the end. Shao Yu's eyes gleamed when he checked his equipment. Weapons are very expensive all over the continent. A single sword can sometimes sell for dozens of dinars, which is enough to buy half a cow.

The nomadic armor of the Khergits was designed for their prairie shooting. What Shao Yu wanted was an armored cavalry with ten enemies and one hundred enemies. Although the Khergit’s nomadic armor was light, the cavalry could just hit it in front of the charge. Shao Yu was very dissatisfied, but there was no other way. After all, these military armors on the market were too expensive, and it would cost at least one million dinars to equip the cavalry with iron armor.

  The city defense army mainly uses bow and arrow shooting as their main training item at present. Equipped with nomadic scimitar and light cavalry shield. As well as various melee equipment, their equipment is much worse than that of the cavalry.

   Most of the field troops are still old veterans, and the new recruits mainly become the city defense army. Responsible for guarding Ai Chemore. The other castles are garrisoned by the lord’s army.

   Shao Yu’s new army leftover weapons and equipment were kept by Shao Yu. Can be used by Balhu and Eleon's armies.

   But Shao Yu, who was not used, still sold a part. After all, the country has just been established, and many places where money is needed, such as newly built villages, will cost a lot of money.

   Soldiers’ wages, food, and support for the poor people all cost money.

   Shao Yu packed out two thousand daggers and one thousand bad horses, and asked Wayne to organize a caravan to sell them. A dagger can sell for forty or fifty dinars. Although those horses are relatively poor, they can also sell for one or two hundred dinars. Although the money is not much, it can do a lot of things. Can this also match the current national tax for half a month? After a long period of war, the economy of Aichamore is relatively poor. Many of the cattle and sheep of the villagers were taken away by Dastam Khan’s army.

   Shao Yu still had 40,000 savings in his hand, and he also seized 50,000 dinars when he seized Aichamore. However, Lord Ubai's savings Shao Yu returned to him.

   Shao Yu invested 20,000 dinars to build a new village. In addition, it cost 10,000 dinars to buy dozens of cows and more than 100 sheep. Develop animal husbandry for the villagers in the new village.

   The new army cavalry has five dinars each and the city defense has three dinars as their first military payment. It is also their one-month military payment. The money is only enough to buy some alcohol, but after all, the country is just getting started, the country is relatively poor, and even if there is no military merit to exchange land, the title, the tax-free land treatment is actually very good, and the soldiers are not dissatisfied.

   Under the auspices of Shao Yu himself, Wayne Li formed three caravans in the kingdom. Each caravan’s capital is 10,000 dinars. UU reading www.uukanshu. One group of com was responsible for reselling pig iron in the Riwading area, one went to the Lana area to buy salt and sold it in Harma, and the other group sold grassland specialties to Dehrim to buy wheat.

  Rivadin's pig iron is more profitable to sell to the Nord Kingdom, but it is also more dangerous, where there are many well-equipped snow bandits. The trade route to Dehrim is relatively safe and there is no profit, but the wheat there is very cheap. Pulled back to Aichamore used to supply the army and can also be sold to the people. According to Aichemore's price, after meeting the needs of the army, the rest will be enough to pay for the cost. The commercial route selling salt is also very profitable. When the three commercial roads are in operation, they can earn 10,000 dinars in one month without any accident.

   In this way, the army’s ration is basically solved. You can also make a lot of money. After the caravan was organized, it set off soon. Those daggers and the like are also sold along the way with them.

   "My lord, our patrol found an important situation on the road"

   As soon as Shao Yu sent off the caravan, Cage ran to the castle and reported to Shao Yu

   "What's wrong?" Shao Yu asked

   "The Dastam Khan’s people have taken a group of prisoners out of the Tianwangling Mountains and are heading towards Turga. I don’t know if Lord Cusa will be there," Cage said

   "Kusa" Shao Yu listened to the spirit

   "You mean this group of people were taken out of Tianwangling"? Shao Yu asked

   "Yes, my lord"

   Shao Yu immediately ordered the shadow guards to gather and prepare to leave the city. Cusa is his important subordinate, so Shao Yu has always ordered his patrol team to pay attention to the people who came out of Tianwangling. Whenever there is a situation, it is like Shao Yu's report.

   Therefore, the patrol team immediately reported the situation as soon as it discovered the situation.

   Shadow Guards assembled soon and went out of town with Shao Yu.
