Heart of Empire Chapter 315: I need more night sabers (2 in 1)
Watching the training of the night saber cavalry, it can really be described as 'pleasing to the eye'.
The nightsaber was completely black with light blue-gray stripes covering it. It was very sturdy, even bigger than some war horses Dane had seen on the mainland.
Sat on their backs are vigorous elf cavalry. These cavalry hold crescent-shaped moon blades in their hands, and they are extremely beautiful and lethal when they swing them. Even if you look at it from Dane's point of view, although the martial skills of these cavalrymen are still immature and seem not so smooth, the power of a special weapon like the moonblade in their hands is enough to make people imagine. After all the training, how strong will it become.
And those night sabers, which are comparable in size to ligers and even bigger, move quite nimbly. Whether these big cats are running or jumping, they show their agility as cats. Even if there are many obstacles on the training ground, they can jump over them at will.
This is more agile than a warg. Dane is sure that there is absolutely no way for a warg to complete some of the items on the training ground - there is no way for a warg to stop suddenly while traveling at high speed easily, and then explode immediately.
In addition to its agility, the nightsaber's explosive power is also stronger than that of a warg. With those blade-shaped fangs growing from the upper jaw, very few creatures can survive with one bite.
If there is anything stronger than a nightsaber in a warg or a horse, it might only be stamina. This is indeed the shortcoming of night sabers. They are flexible and extremely explosive in battle, and the price they pay for this is more physical energy consumption. Moreover, their explosive sprints over a distance of 100 meters are extremely fast, and they may be able to reach the extreme speed from a standstill in just two or three seconds, but their long-distance running endurance is indeed relatively poor.
However, even so, this is quite a powerful unit. Tiger teeth, tiger claws, plus the moon blade of the cavalry, I believe that when they step on the battlefield, they will be the nightmare of all enemies. Not to mention, even in difficult terrain such as forests, swamps, and rocky areas, the night saber can perform quite well. And this kind of terrain is almost the natural enemy of any other type of cavalry.
What's more, these night saber cavalry also have a special skill - Moonblade Swirling.
Dain, who was watching the training, saw with his own eyes that under the order of the night saber cavalry instructor, the dozens of cavalry who were training uniformly threw their weapons forward. The moonblade spun in midair, drew a beautiful arc, spun out for a long distance, then turned a corner, and started flying back until it was caught by the cavalry with both hands.
This is a very powerful long-range attack ability! Under the whirling moon blade, the wooden man who was used as a target with straw and dead leaves tied outside was cut open.
Being able to cut through a wooden dummy target with protection on the outside and solid wood inside basically means that as long as the protection level of the armor does not reach the level of hoplites, then under the Moonblade, as long as If you get hit, you will die.
The ones with this kind of lethality are only nightsaber cavalry units that can't be fully formed into an army. After the two-month training period passes and their skills are more proficient, the lethality of the Moonblade will definitely not be enough. There will be a considerable improvement.
Of course, there are still many problems. Almost half of the nightsaber cavalry, after throwing the moonblade, when the moonblade spun back, the cavalry on the mount failed to catch their own weapons. But Dane wasn't worried about this problem. It was obviously just caused by insufficient training. I believe that after the training of these night saber cavalry was completely completed, this kind of problem would not reappear.
…
Dyne watched it for a long time, and he didn't officially meet Dill until after the training of the Nightsaber recruits was completed this time.
Unlike the elves in the general influence, Dill is a strong man.
Yes, he is a strong elf. In terms of height, Dill is only a little shorter than Dane, and his muscles are not far behind Dane in terms of appearance. There was also a scar on the side of his face, which turned his upper lip up. If it weren't for his long pointed ears that grew on both sides of his head, no one would think he was an elf when they saw him.
"Lord Dane? I'm sorry, sorry, I didn't notice you were beside me during the training just now."
Contrary to his appearance, there was nothing brusque in the way Dill spoke, although his polite manner did not match his size.
Dane resisted the sense of disobedience and said, "It's okay, I won't let them bother you. How is the training progress of these recruits?"
Dill held a piece of cloth, wiped the sweat from his head, and said: "The progress is very good, the boys and girls have mastered how to cooperate with the night saber very quickly, I believe it will not take too long In that time, Lord Lord's subordinates will add an elf cavalry force to serve you."
Dyne praised: "Great, I have been looking forward to the night saber cavalry unit for a long time. However, you said it is not too long, how long is it? I hope to know a specific schedule."
"Well..." Dill put the jersey in his hand aside, groaned, thought for a while, and said, "We are currently preparing for the reserve of night saber cavalry, there are more than one hundred According to the current training progress, after two months, a group of qualified soldiers will complete all the training courses. However, the cultivation of night sabers is not an easy task. There are only about 60 sabers. So, after two months, you will only have one squadron of night saber cavalry available. Although the remaining soldiers can complete the training, they will have to wait for the next batch of night saber cavalry in three months. Only after the training is completed can you officially join your army."
After hearing what Dill said, Dane frowned tightly.
Standing beside Dane, Faro could see that Dane seemed a little dissatisfied with the time period that Dill said.
Of course Dane will be dissatisfied!
In fact, the cultivation of night sabers and the training of night saber cavalry had already started two or three months ago. At that time, Auriana had just advanced to the third level. At that time, when Dane saw the night saber cavalry training program in the list of new buildings, he became very enthusiastic about it.
However, now that several months have passed, Dill actually told him that it will take two or three months for these cavalry to form combat effectiveness, and the first batch of nightsaber cavalry is only sixty. It took three months to have one hundred and twenty qualified cavalrymen. How could this number satisfy him!
Seeing Dane's eyes on him, Fal'o smiled wryly: "Your lord, you don't know that the cultivation of night sabers is really difficult. We need to start from the breeding ground. To the habitat of the night saber, go to attract work across a world. The wild night saber that comes across the world still needs to be trained as a mount in the breeding ground."
"The speed of attracting night sabers is not fast, and the training of mounts is not easy. After two or three months, more than one hundred night sabers that can be used as mounts can be produced and bred The nightsaber cavalry of the two squadrons is already considered a good result."
For Dane's dissatisfaction, Faalo did feel a little helpless. It's not that he doesn't work hard.
In fact, when he saw that Dane had great expectations for the night saber cavalry plan, he treated the training of night sabers as a very important task. However, the objective difficulty lies here after all, no matter how hard Falao tries, he cannot easily get rid of it.
After listening to Fal'o, Dane said: "I understand that your work is very difficult. If it is normal, I will not be so harsh. But, Fal'o, maybe you have been waiting for a long time. In Comilla, I don’t know much about the current situation on the mainland.”
"The war is coming, and our strength must be improved before the war. I have tried my best to increase my military strength in all aspects. For us, the night saber is definitely It is a very important plan. If such elite cavalry can appear on the battlefield in a large scale, it will definitely be the biggest nightmare for our enemies."
"Of course I know that this matter is very difficult, but this is also a pressure on you. I hope you can do your work better under pressure."
After hearing these words, what else can Falor do? He could only nod helplessly, and said, "Then Dane, what is your specific request?"
"I hope that in three to four months, the number of night saber cavalry will reach the size of an entire brigade. On the battlefield, it plays a decisive role.”
After listening to Dane's words, Faror and Dill next to each other looked at each other, their faces were not very good-looking.
Obviously, Dane's request is very difficult to fulfill.
Dil opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but Falol stopped him with his eyes.
Just listen to Farao continue: "Okay, Dane, I understand what you mean. But at this point, I really have no way to give you any guarantee. I can only say that we will do our best , Bring out a whole brigade of nightsaber cavalry after four months."
Dain patted him on the shoulder with a smile, and said: "Your words are enough, I believe you can do it, my butler."
After Dane left, Dill looked at Falor helplessly, and said with a self-mockery: "I never thought... the first time I saw Lord God Envoy, he would give me such a big problem."
Fal'o stroked his beard and said angrily, "What's your problem? Just train your troops well. I'm really in trouble. How can I be in four months? , and get at least two hundred more leopards! Hey, I am so old, not only have to worry about the whole of Aurelia, but also find ways to do these things, really..."
Dill shrugged his shoulders and said, "Yes, yes, I just need to train my troops well. However, if I really want to meet the requirements of the envoy, I am not only short of more than two hundred leopards, I also need more than 200 leopards. There are more than two hundred soldiers short. You have to recruit all the people for me."
"Two hundred people!" Fal'o muttered, "How many elves are there in Auriene? Three hundred rangers, six hundred sword dancers, and A lot of militiamen were recruited by Sacco to serve as guards by the freshwater lake, and two hundred more people were given to make Auriana all the soldiers. If this is done, Auriana will be spared."
Dil saw that Fal'o was so worried that he was about to grab his beard, and he still couldn't bear it, but how could he think of a good way? He could only comfort him and said: "From the tower of the divine guide tree, don't a group of compatriots come down every week? Dozens or hundreds of them come at a time, and there should be quite a few in a month, right?"
"I can't give you all!" Farao said, "There are old and young, men and women, and only young and middle-aged people can serve as cavalry for you. However, the young and middle-aged are all taken away. Do you want to engage in other industries in Renato?"
"Oh...then I can't help you anymore." Dill looked helpless, "I'll go back and continue training my boys and girls."
Fal'o, in distress, waved his hand, motioning for him to leave quickly, and then he stood where he was, constantly thinking about what he could do.
Actually, for the two problems before us, there must be solutions.
For the cultivation of night sabers, he can increase the input of resources and increase the speed of attracting night sabers. Although, although increasing resource input will speed up the speed of attraction, after reaching a threshold ~IndoMTL.com~ input and output will be out of proportion, which will cause a lot of waste of resources. However, in order to complete the target set by Dane, even if he knew it was a waste, Faro had no choice but to devote all his energy.
In that case, there should be a chance to complete the target, even if it is poor, it is estimated that it will not be much worse. As long as the difference is not too dire, he can have the cheek to ask Dane to find another way.
In this regard, Faro is quite a bachelor.
But the source of soldiers is a bigger problem.
It is not difficult to solve the two hundred young and middle-aged soldiers that Dill needs. It is really not enough to transfer from Auriana, just as Dill said, wait for batches of newcomers from the Divine Guidance Tree Tower to select transfers, anyway, the quota can always be fulfilled. However, all the people in Orienado are soldiers, and most of the young and middle-aged are trained as soldiers. The lack of vitality in the entire territory is a deadlock that Falor can't find a solution to if he tries his best.
This is what bothers him the most.
