Troubled times: Start practicing spiritual practice by taking care of your sister-in-law

Chapter 238 Xia Zhining: The Spirit Devouring Array will hurt Tianhe (Additional update 330 for Nuanyang Giant)

Later, Chen Mo told Geng Songfu about building heavy cavalry.

This time, Geng Songfu had no objection.

This time there are more than 800 horses, plus the more than 600 horses last time, there are already 1,500 horses. It is not a problem to form a heavy cavalry of 500 people.

The most important thing is that Chen Mo brought back hundreds of thousands of money and a large amount of equipment from Xia Lin this time. In addition, Yang Minggui died. Chen Mo's army was the only one left in Xia Lin, raising 500 heavy cavalry. Totally worth it.

"What heavy cavalry pays attention to is that both man and horse are in armor. There are ready-made armors for men, but now they need horse armor. As for weapons, it is best to use a horse sword with a waist knife. As the saying goes, one inch is longer and one inch is stronger. The horse armor is simply useless against the heavy cavalry. It is more powerful than a tiger and is suitable for charging into battle." Geng Songfu had seen real heavy cavalry, so he could give a lot of advice.

As a result, the two started a discussion around the heavy cavalry.

The standard configuration of heavy cavalry is one person and three horses, namely war horses, backup horses, and pack horses. They consume more than ten times the supplies of ordinary infantry.

In Chen Mo's world, the famous heavy cavalry in history were Li Shimin's Black Armor Cavalry and the Jin Dynasty's Iron Buddha.

……

After the discussion, it was already very late. Chen Mo did not go back to the cottage, but walked towards the backyard of the Yamen. He still had something to ask the two sisters.

In the side room, the two sisters knew that Chen Mo was coming back tonight, so they didn't sleep.

Sitting on the Grand Master's chair in front of the mahogany bookcase, Xia Zhining was reading the book of war, but her attention was not on the book of war. Her eyes fell on her sister who was sitting quietly on the soft couch, tenderly embroidering the sachet.

Under the light of the fire in the room, the almost completed word "ink" can be clearly seen on the sachet.

Suddenly, they heard the sound of footsteps outside the house, and the two sisters looked towards the door in unison. Then the two sisters read military books and embroidery more seriously, looking like they were not disturbed by trivial matters, but But his ears perked up.

The door opens and closes.

"I haven't slept yet." Chen Mo lowered his eyes and glanced at Xia Zhining, and then sat down next to Xia Zhiqing. He took one of Xia Zhiqing's bare hands very skillfully. The slender skin was smooth and delicate, and there was a ring on his right wrist. A white jade bracelet was what Chen Mo had given to Xia Zhiqing before.

Chen Mo looked at the sachet in Xia Zhiqing's hand, looked at the word "ink" tattooed on the surface of the sachet, and whispered: "What a delicate sachet, Zhiqing's hands are so skillful, was it given to me?"

As he said that, he hugged Xia Zhiqing into his arms.

Xia Zhiqing's beautiful face was ashamed, a blush gradually appeared on her white cheeks, her beautiful eyes were as bright as water, she let out a trembling "um", and then said, "Do you like it, Mr. Mo?"

"No matter what Zhiqing made for me, I like everything." Chen Mo came closer, held Xia Zhiqing's shoulders, kissed her on the cheek, and said warmly.

Xia Zhiqing's face turned redder.

"Bah." Xia Zhining put down the military book and deliberately made a louder noise. She frowned at the young man and said in her heart, it's been so long and the original drama is almost done. Don't forget, the person you like is me. , but said coldly: "It's so late, what are you doing here?"

"Long time no see, have you missed you?" Although he came to ask them about the Spirit Devouring Array, he certainly couldn't say that. Chen Mo had his own experience with this.

Xia Zhiqing rested in Chen Mo's arms.

Xia Zhining looked at the two people who were rubbing each other's ears, frowned, stood up and walked over, came to sit down next to Chen Mo, deliberately kept some distance apart, and said: "Glib tongue."

Chen Mo knew Xia Zhining like the back of his hand. He smiled and held her in his arms, stroking his belly. "Don't move your hands or feet." Xia Zhining was like an angry cat, biting her silver teeth and staring at Chen Mo, but she didn't see any actual resistance.

Chen Mo let go of Xia Zhining. After all, it was a bit inconvenient to do other things besides hugging the two women at the same time.

Chen Mo picked up Xia Zhiqing slightly, let her sit in his arms, and hugged her from behind.

Xia Zhiqing seemed to realize something, her face turned red, and she put the sachet and needle and thread aside.

The result was not much different from what she expected. The bad guy actually took advantage of it, and Xia Zhiqing let out a disgusted groan.

"You bastard bullied my sister again." Seeing this shameful scene, Xia Zhining was angry and annoyed.

"Zhining, come here and hold me a little longer so that you won't be unstable later," Chen Mo said.

Xia Zhining: "???"

Unstable, do you think you are taking a boat?

But she also understood the true meaning of these words.

She wasn't going to mess around with this bastard.

Chen Mo hugged Xia Zhiqing a little tighter, so as not to ignore Xia Zhining, and talked to her: "By the way, do you know about the Soul-Eating Array?"

"Spirit-eating array?" Xia Zhiqing and Xia Zhining exclaimed at the same time.

"Do you know?" Chen Mo peeled off eggshells and practiced long knives, bows and arrows. The thick calluses traveled on the delicate and white skin of the woman who grew up in a wealthy family, making the beauty tremble subconsciously and did not answer the boy. if.

Xia Zhining said: "Of course I know that this formation can take advantage of the terrain to capture the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth. When Emperor Taizu first founded the country, the foundation was unstable. The barbarians from the grasslands in the north took the opportunity to invade. At this time, Emperor Taizu used the spirit-devouring formation to absorb He captured the dragon vein energy in the Luonan underground and broke through to the first level in one fell swoop. After that, Yujia went on a personal expedition and not only drove these barbarians out, but also killed their khan. It has been almost four hundred years since they dared to invade.

However, it is precisely because of this that Luonan was born with a lack of spiritual energy and no vegetation. Even the fields ten miles away from Luonan were affected. The harvest was reduced by more than half than usual. Earthquakes often occurred, which led to the move of the capital to Tianchuan. Until Emperor Jingdi At this time, Luonan recovered, but the dragon energy in the ground was gone. "

Hearing this, Chen Mo thought of the earthquake in the Heavenly King's Palace.

"Why are you saying this all of a sudden?" Xia Zhining suddenly reacted and said.

"I can't tell you this yet." Chen Mo took a deep breath and returned the sword to its sheath. Xia Zhiqing also let out a grunt. If it weren't for Chen Mo's support, she wouldn't be able to hold her steady.

Xia Zhining looked at the two of them, her brows raised, and there was a trace of anger on her cold jade face, but she continued: "This formation takes over the creation of heaven and earth, which harms the harmony of heaven and earth. In addition, the land of the earth spirit is difficult to find, which leads to this The formation is not widely spread, and there are even fewer people who know how to arrange it. Now there is only one name that can be heard."

"So Zhining, can you do it?"

Xia Zhining shook her head: "I have only heard my father mention it. I am afraid that the only ones who can set up the spirit-devouring array now are the royal family."

With that said, Xia Zhining took the initiative to ask about Xia Lin's situation.

But at this moment, Chen Mo could no longer concentrate, so he muttered a few perfunctory words and bullied Zhi Qing while holding her in his arms.
