"Good knife!"
This thing is heavy in the hand, and combined with the strength of the waist and wrist, there is no stagnation between slashes. With just one slash, Guan Fu can already feel the benefits of this thing.
"Your Majesty, this is indeed a rare and good knife!"
Guan Fu couldn't put it down. He was already extremely brave, and coupled with such a dangerous weapon, if he wore heavy armor, what could the Huns' light cavalry do to him?
"If I create a new army, and all the soldiers are selected to be those who are over eight feet tall and extremely strong, wearing heavy armor and holding Mo Dao, what do you think?"
"Guanfu is willing to serve as the king's vanguard!"
"There is no need for a pawn. Although you have a humble official position, in my opinion, you are very brave. You will definitely not be a thing in the pond in a little time. I want you to be the commander of the new army. I wonder if you dare to try?"
When Liu Deng said this, Guan Fu's eyes immediately turned red. No one had ever trusted him so much.
In the imperial court, he was just an official the size of a sesame seed and a mung bean, and he was still depressed. He never imagined that Liu Deng could trust him so much. How important is a military commander?
He had reached the sky in one step. He had imagined countless times in his dreams that one day he would be able to show his ambition to become a great leader. However, when the opportunity was actually placed in front of him, he couldn't believe it was true. .
"Have you thought about it, how many times can a person have such an opportunity in this life?"
Seeing Guan Fu standing dumbfounded on the spot, Liu Deng said with a faint smile.
"Your Majesty, Guan Fu is just a husband. Why does Your Majesty have so much trust in me?"
Guan Fu gritted his teeth and asked again.
"Without him, I like you!"
Liu Deng's answer immediately stunned Guan Fu. Zhao Wengu was standing aside, with his head lowered and his shoulders constantly twitching. The king's answer was too narrow-minded.
Guan Fu's face turned red. He didn't expect Liu Deng to answer him like this.
"Hahahahaha, you don't have much now, you just have martial arts, what else can I want to do with you? A manly man, please speak more freely, are you willing?"
Liu Deng laughed and said.
"Your Majesty is right. I, Guan Fu, am just a common man. To be favored by Your Majesty is a sign of my ancestors' merits. I am willing to do my best for Your Majesty!"
Guan Fu knelt down on one knee and spoke seriously to Liu Deng.
"Very good, I don't need you to be a dog or a horse. From today on, you will be the commander-in-chief of the Modao Army of my country!"
"At the end of the day, Guan Fu, please see your Majesty!"
Guan Fu's eyes were red with excitement, and his body was already trembling.
"Okay, General Guan Fu, get up. From now on, the Modao Army will be left to you!"
Liu Deng patted Guan Fu on the shoulder and motioned for him to stand up.
"I wonder, Your Majesty, where is our Mo Dao Army now?"
Guan Fu asked the question he was most concerned about.
"cough--"
"Well, because Mo Daojun was founded, you are alone for the time being..."
When Liu Deng said this, he felt a little embarrassed, and Guan Fu even felt like he was being deceived.
After talking for a long time, I am just a polished general...
"Don't worry, General Guan Fu. I have immediately ordered Lieutenant Wu to send people to help you select suitable people from each army. In addition, you can also recruit people by yourself from among the people. In terms of ordnance, I will also order people to help you." If you hurry up and make preparations, I won't miss your mission!"
Thinking about it, it was a bit unkind, so Liu Deng quickly drew a pie for him.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Guan Fu breathed a sigh of relief, but this also had the advantage that he could choose the people he wanted.
Although it is difficult to create such an army, it is not difficult with Liu Deng's full support.
At this time, Dai Guo has really changed his life. Although money is not everything, with money, many things become extremely simple.
For example, if you want enough sergeants now, you can just post a list.
If you want enough ordnance but cannot produce it yourself, then increase the scale!
In just a few days, Liu Deng had directly added the supervisor to three bureaus and one hospital.
"General Guanfu, prepare yourself today. Someone will come to you early tomorrow morning. At that time, you can directly follow him to select people. I will only give you one year. I hope that after one year you can give I’ll bring out an iron army!”
"promise!"
Liu Deng also knew that this was a costly battle. In this day and age, heavy infantry was the most expensive professional unit.
Although they are heavy infantry, their equipment determines that they need at least one person and one horse, or even two people and three horses.
Because their equipment is too heavy, without horses, their mobility is almost zero. According to the current plan, the armor on their bodies is at least fifty kilograms. Plus their Mo Dao, this is nearly seventy kilograms. .
Then there are supplies. Without war horses, they are just a group of giant babies...
However, only Liu Deng understood that their combat effectiveness was simply not comparable to that of any other arms.
In particular, their invincible momentum, at critical moments, their blow to the enemy's morale is absolutely fatal!
The Huns are all light cavalry. Except for the heavy cavalry of Shanyu's headquarters, which is less than 10,000, the rest are almost all leather or cloth armor.
Their main weapons are bows and arrows and sabers. However, in front of thick iron armor, unless the bows and arrows hit the eyes, otherwise, in front of the armor that even has a face shield, they are nothing!
The Huns' saber only weighed about five kilograms, and in front of the armor weighing dozens of kilograms, it would leave at best a white mark.
However, when they met Mo Dao, especially when these people were all extremely powerful and strong men about eight feet tall, this charged blow could chop both men and horses into pieces.
Thinking about that scene, Liu Deng felt like his body was trembling, building an invincible iron army with his own hands. Is there anything more exciting than this?
After coming out of Guan Fu's house, Liu Deng set out again, preparing to visit several iron smelting plants run by Daiguo officials.
Although less than one-third of all the ironware in the Dai Kingdom came from here,
However, after all, this can be regarded as one's own industry. If you want to make a fortune, in this day and age, ironmaking is definitely a hugely profitable industry.
There is no shortage of sales for this thing. No matter how much you have, they will all be swallowed up by this giant beast.
More importantly, in this era of cold weapons, only steel can be used to cast armor, build weapons, and protect our country!
