Anyone who can become a heavy rider of Xuanjia must be an innate person, otherwise they would not be able to support the terrifying weight of Xuanjia.
Back then, infantry armor consisted of 1,825 armor leaves, and generally weighed about 70 kilograms. At the same time, the protective power could be improved by increasing the number of armor leaves, but the weight would further increase. On this basis, the weight of the crossbow hand armor is slightly lighter at 65 kilograms, that of the archer is 80 kilograms, and that of the fire gun hand is 84 kilograms. However, depending on the battlefield conditions, the archer armor can be increased to 80 kilograms in a short time. Eighty-four pounds, the gunman increased to one hundred and five pounds.
This was already the peak at that time, the highest weight was only one hundred and five kilograms, but the black armor was nearly ten times heavier.
Ordinary acquired people simply cannot bear such a weight and will be crushed to death. Therefore, it can only be done by an innate person, and it must be a martial artist with the strongest strength and the toughest body. Otherwise, even if it can bear the weight, it will not be able to move freely.
Therefore, most of the people in black clothes are martial artists, just like most of the Taoist sects are Qigong practitioners.
The horses under them are hybrids of a different breed, with the blood of dragons, and are called "dragon horses". They are extremely powerful. Not only do they bear the burden of the man in black who is fully armored, they themselves are also fully armored, even their abdomens and hooves are no exception, including Including the man in black, plus the weight of the armor and vest, the total weight is nearly two thousand kilograms, but even in this situation, Ryoma can still charge.
If all the weight of the dragon and horse are included, one ride would weigh more than three thousand kilograms, and its cost is terrifying. This does not include the cost of training a qualified black warrior, nor does it include military pay and other expenses. It is just the man and horse. A full body of armor and matching dragon and horse would cost nearly 20,000 pacific coins. By analogy, ten riders would cost 200,000 pacific coins, a hundred riders would cost 2 million pacific coins, and a thousand riders would cost 20 million pacific coins. According to the statistics of Duzhitang, the Taoist sect's current annual income is only about 10 million Taiping qian. Such a cavalry is a truly elite division, and it is truly made with mountains of gold and silver.
In a sense, Lingguan armor is not that expensive. After all, Lingguan armor mainly relies on the blessing of divine power. The most rare thing is divine power, while Xuanjia relies on its own quality.
Nowadays, the Daxuan Imperial Court only has about 9,000 cavalry, and they were not created in one go. They were accumulated over decades or hundreds of years. Many armors were passed down from generation to generation. Many times, when people died, the armors had to be snatched back.
But you get what you pay for, which also creates the terrifying combat power of the Xuanjia Heavy Cavalry. A charge in a group is a veritable torrent of steel. Ordinary Jianghu forces, or the cavalry of Fenglinzhou, face the Xuanjia Heavy Cavalry. The real rabble dispersed in a flash, truly claiming to be "invincible".
This time for the Fenglinzhou war, the Daxuan court mobilized more than 3,000 Xuanjia heavy cavalry and transported them to Fenglinzhou via iron-clad ships. In addition, there are nearly 90,000 men in black who will come to Fenglin Continent one after another. They will be led by a land admiral and military affairs officer, known as the 100,000-strong army.
The Dao Sect's flying boats are of course invincible in both vertical and horizontal directions, but the number of spiritual officers is too small to achieve effective ground control.
】
Without control of the ground, there can be no complete suppression of the rebellion.
This requires a large number of ground troops to complete a complete counterinsurgency.
One armored ship only transported a thousand mysterious heavy cavalry, and it took three armored ships to transport three thousand mysterious heavy cavalry.
Three thousand profound armored knights formed an array, their evil aura soaring to the sky, and were inspected by Master Qingwei.
After that, there were other men in black, including the Shenji Battalion.
Toyotomi Chiyo no longer looked at those black armor heavy cavalry, but looked eagerly at Qingwei Zhenren who had already stepped onto the high platform.
Because of her status, Toyotomi Chiyo has met many important people, but among all the big people she has met, Qingwei Zhenren looks the youngest. Also the most handsome.
Of course, Fengchen Qianyo knew the rules left by the fifth-generation master, which did not allow him to act independently. However, some people were born to look young, and forty-year-olds looked like thirty-year-olds. There was nothing that could be done about it. Coupled with the changes in the world over the years, men are no longer forced to grow beards, they are free to do so. Qingwei Zhenren does not have a beard and looks a bit younger.
This also involves old things from that year. The Li family is a very strange family. Every few generations there will be a person who is extremely talented and rebellious. Strictly speaking, Xuan Sheng is just such a person, who suppressed the Li family so much back then. Donghuang is probably half of him, very talented and not very rebellious.
The same was true for Master Qingwei when he was young. He was extremely talented, but he despised his family elders, refused to obey discipline, and often acted unexpectedly.
For example, Li Qingnu's adoptive mother Li Tianyue was bullied by Master Qingwei a lot when she was young, because Master Qingwei couldn't stand her behavior. And Li Minghuang's adoptive father also suffered the "venomous hand" of Zhenren Qingwei.
But this is nothing. Qingwei Zhenren's biggest act of rebellion was to change his name. The seniority of the Li family includes eldest brother, you, heaven and life. He is the generation with the character "you", only one generation lower than Li Changgeng. However, he followed Xuan Sheng and Donghuang in abandoning the character "you" and changing the character "you" to "you". Wu", who called himself Li Wugou, took it from "Zhi Ming Dong You, Zhi Qing Wugu" to express his ambition, so he changed his epithet to "Zhi Qing".
This caused many members of the Li family to talk privately at the time, saying that Qingwei changed his name to follow the eldest generation, because the Zhang family has no-name seniority, which roughly corresponds to the eldest generation of the Li family. One speaker even ridiculed him and even changed his surname. Wouldn't it be better to change Li to Zhang?
Qiniang is the same generation as Master Qingwei and Master Donghua, and are both disciples of the seventh generation. Qiniang was also a rebellious person at that time, and she was a close friend of Master Qingwei, so the two had some friendship. Qiniang commented on Qingwei Zhenren, saying that he is a stubborn person, a person who likes to have trouble with herself.
A person who comes from a top family wants to make achievements on the battlefield on his own. He often wears the armor of a man in black and goes around everywhere, looking down on the children of the family. This is very similar to Qi Xuansu, who also looks down on the children of aristocratic families, but in the end cannot make a great breakthrough without the help of these aristocratic families.
When Master Qingwei was thirty years old, he finally figured it out, curbed his temper and sharpness, and chose to compromise with his family. With the help of his family, he rose rapidly and eventually became today's No. 2 figure on Taiping Dao and the second-in-command of Jinque.
Although Qingwei Zhenren finally compromised, there are still quite a few traces of rebellion left on him. For example, not growing a beard is one of them. Everyone else grows beards, but he doesn't?????????? ?????Must be, among all you Zhenzhi masters, he can be regarded as an outlier.
As for the appearance of Qingwei Zhenren, he is a well-deserved handsome man. Adjectives such as handsome, handsome, jade trees facing the wind, and a face like a crown jade can be added to his body.
So just in terms of appearance, Qingwei Zhenren is very heart-wrenching. For women, this is even more true.
However, Master Qingwei had already married and established a career, and he was the only one among the three "princes" who had a Taoist partner. I don't know if it was a coincidence or not, but the second year after he came to terms with his family, he married the daughter of the Qin family. I don't know if there was any reason for his huge change.
Toyotomi Chiyo, like many little girls, looked at Qingweizhen who was speaking.
But the look in her eyes wasn't admiration, but hope.
The hope of revenge.
As the regent Guan Bai, her brother died in an unknown manner. In her opinion, it was probably at the hands of the "Zun Hu Faction". After all, those so-called Zong Dao patriots dared to assassinate Qingwei Zhenren in the street, so they must also dare to do so. Conspired to murder the regent Guan Bai.
Although her status is noble, she has no inheritance rights. If she wants revenge, she can only rely on Taoism.
If we were to target a specific person, it would naturally be Li Wugou, the real person in charge of the army.
I could only hear Master Wei Qing's voice loudly saying: "The thieves falsely claim to be 'powerful and divine' and also say 'respect the king and fight against the Tao', but they are actually clowns. Our Taoist sect is pained by Lu Shen of Fenglinzhou, and is angry at the rampage of thieves. We should respond to Fenglinzhou At the invitation of the Prime Minister of the imperial court, Yuan led a volunteer brigade to suppress the culprits, wipe out the rebellion, and establish a new state, looking forward to the renewal of the country. All the heroes and horses of Fenglinzhou are looking forward to their return. The heroes of Caoze are rising when they hear the news. The names of the rebel lords are Retainers, generals, and soldiers who have surrendered anyway will not be rewarded without asking any questions. If they abandon obedience and disobedience, and are stubborn and stubborn, when the heavenly soldiers arrive, they will definitely punish them. Even if they want to regret it, it will be too late. "
