Riding and chopping: Overlord of the Han and Hungarians

Chapter 26 26. New recruits
Put the horse aside.

The sky had already darkened, and there were four shadowy figures in a row under the tree.

Zhang Qi raised the animal skin bag and gurgled water.

The climate in the world of riding and hacking is very comfortable, they have been running for half a day.

The cross-country horse running at full speed is very scary. In just a few hours, he has traveled at least one hundred and eighty miles, passing through four villages during the period.

This time, he was lucky. Among the four villages, he recruited two NPC soldiers, and one of them was the aristocratic unit that he was thinking about [New Imperial Guard].

That's right, it is the initial unit of the handsome boy in costume that he was so envious of before.

Although it doesn't look very eye-catching now, when he upgrades to his final form, that outfit will definitely sweep the battlefield of this era.

In addition to the [New Imperial Guard Army], the other crossbowmen who are still outside at this time are recruits from the empire.

With two more people, Zhang Qi was very happy at first, at least this time he had other gains besides dinars.

Spreading out the cloth map, Zhang Qi and the others are located directly above Nuotai, about forty miles away from Nuotai.

The horses have rested, and they must hurry up.

"Get on your horses, everyone! Let's go!"

After washing his face with water from the water bag, Zhang Qi greeted him.

The three NPCs didn't need to rest at all, but when they heard Zhang Qi's words, they immediately got on their horses.

rattling--

The sound of horseshoes sounded again, targeting Nuotai.

Riding on the horse, Zhang Qi was still thinking about the goods that came in this time.

In the four passing villages, Vatea and Malatea are both specialty iron ore, and Zhang Qi bought them all, using two-handed swords as money.

Moreover, I met many caravans along the way, and bought some more or less from them.

I haven't sold out the two-handed sword yet, and I have more than a hundred pieces of iron ore on my body.

It may take a few more days for Zhang Qi to sell out the two-handed swords, and then he can go to the village and buy a batch.

Thinking about the matter, the cross-country horse brought Zhang Qi to the foot of Nuotai City, and night had fallen. After Zhang Qi led people to sell a batch of two-handed swords in his hand, he went to the blacksmith shop.

It was already late today, and it was unrealistic to rush on the road, so he simply continued to forge iron. Speaking of which, Nuotai was the first place where he prostituted charcoal for free, and it was also fate.

Now that the fate has come, it would be unreasonable if Nuotai is not as individual as Epikrothea.

With a big wave of Zhang Qi's hand, several NPCs immediately turned into a demolition office together with him. As long as every household had easy-to-handle wood products, they sent them to the blacksmith's shop.

Zhang Qi smelts charcoal, Suo Jiaer smelts iron, and the two cooperate seamlessly.

Until the branches of the moon.

The blacksmith shop, which has been disturbed by the sound of iron striking, has become quiet.

"Phew, it's okay, if there are more than ten, it can be regarded as an increase in income."

After wiping off his sweat, Zhang Qi let out a long breath.

Going back to Notai's tavern, it was as empty as Epikrotia, and this was Zhang Qichai's first tavern.

After greeting the tavern owner with a smile, Zhang Qi went upstairs, ready to sleep.

Early the next morning.

Zhang Qi got up from the bed, as usual, first went to the outside world to check, if there was no problem, he would continue to stay in the world of riding and cutting.

Zhang Qi, who reappeared in the upstairs room of the tavern, shivered. It was still late at night outside, and it was very cold, so there was no problem.

Go downstairs to wash up, deal with the food hastily, and summon Zhang Qi to set off again.

Villages, towns, Zhang Qi led people to shuttle around in various places. In a few days, he almost cleared out both hands of swords, and there were only a dozen or so swords left in his hands.

And when he was consciously looking for small-scale bandits, the new recruits of the empire and the [New Guards] were also upgraded one after another.

However, the upgrade of noble cavalry is really expensive. In addition to the normal upgrade fee, you need to buy additional horses. Ordinary horses like traveling horses and draft horses are not enough, they must be horses with mount entries. p1
And every time you level up, you need new horses.

Is the outfit handsome?

Handsome!
In exchange for money.

Looking at Zhang Qi, who had already been upgraded to a heavy rider, he still felt that it was time to give him a name, otherwise it would be too troublesome to call him in the future.

And this is also his first noble unit, which has commemorative value.

Since a heavily armored rider rides a horse and holds a long spear, and is also a nobleman, then call him
Magui is ready.

After a little brainstorming, Zhang Qi decided on a name for Ma Gui.

In fact, he wanted to call him Ma Changgui at first, but after thinking about it, he decided to simplify it.

The way back to the city was extremely easy. Apart from looking around the village to find recruitable soldiers and the existence of chickens, ducks and geese, Zhang Qi's other thoughts were on the outside world.

There are only a few hours left before the dawn of the outside world, and Zhang Qi can stay in the world of riding and hacking for about three or four days at most, and it is time to lead the group of people outside.

Because of the extra pack of wolf cubs, Zhang Qi and the others' movement speed in the outside world is not fast, and it can even be considered slow.

So Zhang Qi was thinking whether to bring those wolf cubs into this world.

In addition to shortening their growth time in another aspect, doing so can start training in advance.

Zhang Qi knew that the era he was currently living in was the Western Han Dynasty, but he still didn't know exactly when it was.

However, judging from the situation of the Huns, the Western Han Dynasty's all-out war against the Huns has not yet begun.

He still has time to grow.

Collecting iron ore along the way, looking for recruitable soldiers, by the time Zhang Qi returned to Epikrothea, his several pack horses had already carried more than 500 iron ore on their backs.

The manpower also went from three to four.

Don't look too small, at least he was recruited, right?

In addition, he did find chickens, ducks and geese, which are found in every village, but the number is very small and he needs to search carefully. When he came back this time, he brought about ten of each kind.

Fortunately, the System Creature didn't make much noise along the way, otherwise his head would hurt to death.

Entering the town, Zhang Qi actually felt like he was at home. He took a long breath and tasted the smell of this town without wooden products.

"Mr. Wolf!"

Before Zhang Qi and his party could go far, there was a happy greeting from a distance.

Zhang Qi turned his head to look, and saw a few wolf cubs running over, dripping with sweat.

It can be seen that they have a very self-disciplined physical exercise every day.

Moreover, they seem to have grown a bit taller, and their physique has become a lot stronger, with a lot more flesh than when they first saw them.

He is no longer skinny, especially Hu Er, who has received sufficient food and nutrition, and now he is starting to inflate like a balloon.

At the age of ten or so, he looks like a fifteen or sixteen year old.

p1: There are different levels of horses in the world of riding and hacking. The most common mules, pack horses, stage horses, and traveling horses are ordinary horses without affixes.

The second-level horses have mount affixes, and upwards, there are war mounts and noble mounts.
