My Empire War Game

Chapter 41: Bow and arrow

   The environmental sanitation in towns must be done. In the past, the barbarians did not pay attention to personal hygiene. Later, Su Lun forced them to organize their personal hygiene.

The savages originally have medium and long hair, and some even have braids, but these guys are too lazy to take care of their hair, so their hair is often dirty, and there are even a lot of lice in them. The taste is also choking.

Suren asked the goblin slaves to dig a big pit, then dusted it with lime, led the water of the Red Sand River into the big pit, and then threw all the savages into it by himself, so that they wouldn’t be allowed to come out without soaking in it for half an hour. .

   After several consecutive coercive measures, Su Lun finally taught these barbarians to pay attention to hygiene, and many barbarians were too lazy to take care of their hair, and were afraid of being taught by Su Lun, and finally shaved all their hair...

   So, except for the female savages in the camp, eight of the ten male savages are bald. All the barbarian warriors are bald, and now his barbarian guard, one by one, is bald and muscular, looking very oppressive.

While hunting, the barbarian hunters unintentionally caught a few wild horses. Suren also tried to train the wild horses, but these wild horses were difficult to train. Suren and the others did not have qualified horse trainers, and there were some mercenaries. I know how to ride a horse, but how to train a horse is half-hearted.

   Suren didn't want to give up the cavalry, and there was no suitable candidate. In the end, he could only build a stable for these wild horses to live in. Maybe in the coming year, there will be a few more ponies in the stable.

   Because of the archer talisman, Sulun can train archers, and the shooting range in the barracks has been established. For now, the territory also needs a group of archers to increase long-range lethality.

In addition to the human factor, the weapon factor also accounts for a large proportion of the archer. It is not easy to make a good bow and arrow. It is very cumbersome from the selection of materials to the production process, and there are many materials, such as the bow tires of the bow and arrow. , You need to choose the best wood.

   Even the craftsmanship needs to follow the season. Analyze wood in winter, cook horns in spring, treat tendons in summer, and then use glue, lacquer, and silk to combine dry, horns and tendons in autumn, and finally fix the bow in the coldest winter season, so I want one A good bow and arrow will take at least two years.

  Su Lun can't wait that long, so he is going to make some bows and arrows to make do with it, and wait for a while to see if there is a chance to go to the centaur tribe in the wilderness to trade some centaur longbows.

  Because of the short time, the bows and arrows made by the forge are smaller in range and power. However, it can be used as a training. The candidates for the archers are selected from which mercenaries. Although these mercenaries are of average strength, they have used some of various weapons. The shooting range in General Sulun's camp is set for them to practice.

There are a lot of red sand in the channel of the Hongsha River. This is why Sulun named the river. These sands are very fine and are very useful for laying training grounds. The barbarians are energetic guys one by one. During missions, they often learn from wrestling.

After the construction of the military camp school grounds are completed, these barbarians are happy. They like to fight on the school grounds when they are idle. Now the school grounds are almost turned into arenas, because the territory lacks entertainment facilities, which is also very popular in the camp. Welcome, Su Lun let them go.

  ......

   Most of the trees on the northern wasteland are pine, which is generally tough and not the best wood for bows and arrows. The most commonly used bows and arrows in the Kingdom of Florence are oak or teak. These woods are air-dried to make bows that are tough and not easy to deform, and have a long range. They are standard equipment for the kingdom's army.

Of course, although the archer of the Kingdom of Florence is good, it is still a bit behind the races of centaur and half elves. The effective range of the Florence standard longbow is only about 100 meters, and some excellent archers can reach 120 meters. The distance of the centaur to hit the target, and the effective range of the centaur's bow and arrow reached one hundred and fifty meters, even two hundred meters, the same is true for the half-elves.

   In addition to their superior skills in making bows and arrows, there is also the material of the bows and arrows. The centaur longbow uses yew wood, combined with their unique bow-making skills. As for the bow and arrow used by the half-elves, it seems to be a special plant cultivated by them.

The yew is expensive and can only grow in the depths of the northern wasteland. The wood is tough, flexible, and highly plastic. The number of yews obtained by the Kingdom of Florence every year is very small, and most of them are with centaur tribes. Obtained by the transaction.

   It is not easy for Suren to obtain this kind of wood, unless he also travels through the wasteland to find a chance further north. It’s not that humans have never thought of transplanting yew trees~www.ltnovel.com~ With the help of wizards, humans have successfully transplanted and survived a batch of yew trees, but after transplanting to the human kingdom, the yew trees have become talented in wood quality. The drop is severe.

   Compared to Centaur, the yew wood is one-third softer, and it is not even as soft as oak or teak. The cost is higher than teak oak, but the quality is almost the same. As a result, yew is quickly thrown into the corner and forgotten.

Suren wants to develop archers, it is necessary to find a suitable wood. As for oak and teak, these trees prefer a warmer climate. His territory is too northern. Whether it is oak or teak, it will be long in the north. Frozen to death in winter.

Of course, if Su Lun has enough money, he can also buy it directly from the system mall. Since the establishment of the blacksmith shop, various weapons have been sold in the system mall, but the weapons inside are too expensive, and they are used by barbarians. A two-handed axe will cost one hundred and fifty Kinnars.

   The cost for him to make a forge by himself is only twenty kinnars. A short bow costs forty kinnals, and a long bow directly costs 100 kinnals. Su Lun's poor body can't get a hundred kinnals now. It can be said that he is now the poorest lord in the entire Kingdom of Florence. Such a price is naturally unaffordable for Su Lun.

   Although there are many things in the territory, it is still very gratifying to see how the territory is changing day by day. Just this afternoon, Gene and Johnson returned to the territory with more than five hundred slaves and twenty carts of food. When the caravan came back, the population of Suren Territory instantly doubled several times.

   Sufficient population is the basis for the development of a territory. Now the number of humans in Surun’s territory has reached more than 700. Although the population is still small, as long as this difficult period passes, the territory will develop rapidly.
