Chapter 561: A single soldier carrying a sharp weapon

The huge convoy walked for three days and arrived at the ancient city mountains.

The second-hand man and the new recruits composed of 500 bandits and civilians had been waiting for Liu Lang for more than a month. Because he needed to guard and seized a large number of people, no one in Qinglong Mountain was more familiar with the environment than them. So when he returned to Xinjing City, the most complete and largest new recruit company, the Independent Regiment, did not follow him.

Those who are still in Qinglong Mountain are naturally all young and strong. The original elderly, weak and young women and children in Qinglong Mountain have been sent back to Xinjing City by Ji Lianrong's convoy one step ahead of schedule, and they followed the refugees who moved south to the south.

They will arrive at Shanliang County by boat, and then the convoy arranged by the merchant group will send the Independence Group base in Andong City, where they will be their new home. If they count by time, they should have arrived before the Independence Group.

After all, the Independence Regiment relies on carriages and iron feet to measure the 1,600 kilometers of land in the kingdom. Based on the marching speed of 40 kilometers per day, the Independence Regiment will take about 40 days to return to its base.

In addition to the second-hand man and 500 new recruits who came to greet Liu Lang, Zhao Daoxiao and his cavalry who had already set up camp in Qinglong Mountain.

Seeing the soldiers moving a large number of weapons and shells into the carriages, Liu Lang had made it clear that Qinglong Mountain would no longer station an independent regiment of soldiers, and would leave enough bullets for Zhao Daoxiao. He also said that Zhao Daoxiao only needs to pay half of the market price, and a grain guild in Xinjingcheng would provide enough food and grass for 2,000 people every three months.

Zhao Daoxiao did not blink his eyelids, and with a command, he asked him to follow him to see off all the soldiers from Liu Lang and the Independent Regiment to dismount collectively, and all 500 war horses were to be given to Liu Lang and the Independent Regiment.

Although this large scale is enough to record the modern history of Xinicheng, the convoy of more than 700 large carts looks very awesome, compared with the current situation of the Independent Regiment, it is still not enough. Eight soldiers who were seriously injured but disabled were one carriage, and three soldiers who were seriously injured and unhealed were one carriage. This accounted for nearly 300 carriages. The more than 400 carriages were left to be loaded with various equipment and supplies and a large number of seizures located in Qinglong Mountain.

If there weren't six large tractors with ten tons of cargo, the soldiers of the Independent Regiment would have to carry their hands on their shoulders again.

Therefore, from Liu Lang, 2,000 strong officers and soldiers could only walk on foot. Hiking back to Andong City for nearly 1,600 kilometers is undoubtedly a huge test for everyone. No matter how to hone the will of the soldiers, it is also a huge harm to the soldiers' bodies.

500 war horses are definitely a great gift, especially for the Zhao Daoxiao Cavalry Brigade, which relies on war horses even higher than guns. Last time, the 8th Division ambushed the 8th Division in the northern part of Qingning County, more than 200 of his more than 1,000 cavalry killed more than 200 people, and Zhao Daoxiao did not cry. But he heard that more than 400 war horses had lost more than 400, and more than 100 had sprained their ankles and had to help them solve their pain by themselves. The cavalry general who was traversing the black mountain and white water could not help but burst into tears.

For cavalry, war horses are like brothers and their own right-hand arms, and are no longer part of them.

But after seeing the transportation conditions of Liu Lang's troops, Zhao Daoxiao gave his most precious thing without hesitation.

This is trust, which comes from the trust of comrades and the indestructible friendship established after experiencing life and death.

Liu Lang smiled, but refused with a smile.

500 war horses are definitely good things. Each horse can carry more than 80 kilograms of supplies every day and walk dozens of kilometers. Soldiers who walk with light clothes are not so tired.

Zhao Daoxiao glared at his eyes, and was about to scold Fatty Liu for being ungrateful. This was the limit that he had reduced the combat effectiveness of the cavalry brigade to the minimum acceptable level. The remaining more than a thousand horses were just enough for each person, and there was no need to change to transfer. If he wanted to restore his previous combat effectiveness, he either bought new horses and trained or had to sacrifice his life to grab the Black Hawk Empire people.

"Haha, show the good things we have prepared for Army Commander Zhao." Liu Lang said to the second-hand man with a smile.

"Okay!" The second-hand man waved his hand excitedly, and 500 new recruits were in hand, and he pushed out the coolest single-person transport tool of the era specially prepared by Liu Lang for the Independent Regiment.

It is said that as long as you have the energy, the transportation capacity is up to 50 kilograms and travel 100 kilometers a day, a single weapon------ bicycle.

That's right, it's a bicycle.

Liu Lang had considered the issue of individual transportation a long time ago. As early as a week ago, Liu Lang entrusted his old Taishan to search for the most convenient and fastest transportation vehicles he could think of to transport bicycles to Qinglong Mountain in batches.

Exhausted the efforts of merchants from all sizes of the merchant group, Liu Lang bought 600 bicycles. How much money did Liu Lang pay for this? 90,000 silver coins, an average of 150 silver coins per bicycle.

As soon as the bell rang, he whizzed through the crowd like lightning, absolutely cool and pretending to be personal equipment.

Looking at 600 antique bicycles of different shapes, Liu Lang still recognized this transaction that he thought was a bit idiot. Of course, Liu Lang didn't know that when riding a bicycle, he not only had to apply for a "driver's license" but also had to register a license. Every year, he had to pay a silver coin that was similar to the "car and ship tax" in later generations. This is still cheap in Xinjing City, and there are two silver coins in a place like Dahai City.

Otherwise, the leader Lang, who took out 90,000 silver coins and bought 600 old antique bicycles, would have to vomit the city director of Shini, and you would have to pay the "traffic maintenance fee" for me, and you would have to repair my way home!

Six hundred bicycles lined up neatly on the meadow in front of the mountain and looked spectacular, giving it a feeling of off-road cycling.

"How is it? Commander Zhao, the equipment of my Independent Regiment is pretty good! As long as you have strong enough strength, you won't run slower than your horse!" Liu Lang smiled.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! Zhao Daoxiao smiled bitterly, but Fatty Liu was thoughtful. Although bicycles do not carry more goods than war horses, they are better because they do not need water or food! That's right, Tai Te Niang is a little bit of a prodigal.

In anyone's eyes, buying 600 bicycles in one go for nearly 100,000 silver coins is definitely a waste of money.

But Zhao Daoxiao thought so.

If Boss Ji hadn't been pulled in time by his own baby girl, he would have rushed up to give his prodigal son-in-law a few big mouths.

It’s okay if your mother spends money like flowing water, but can she settle the account of buying a bicycle first? How can she get a dowry like this? My baby daughter still has to be kept at home for a while, and it’s not necessarily true whether she’s married or not!

Well, Boss Ji, who was so angry that he was scolded by his prodigal son-in-law at home, saw his baby's wrinkled nose after saying the last sentence, and he knew that his wife's dowry expenses were certain.

Who made her daughter fall in love with that fat man! Especially after she put the steel ring on her ring finger, she still couldn't bear to wipe the dirty blood.

Girl! The blood has long turned into powder after it has dried up. God knows if that fat man is lazy. When he gave it to you, he didn't wipe it clean and made up stories to coax people?

However, the angry Boss Ji did not dare to say it after all, because he found that his wife looked at him was not right.

The fat man has now fooled his two women. Boss Ji couldn't let go of his wife's love when she saw the copper bracelet made of the shell given to her by Liu Lang. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart, "Do you believe that 90,000 silver coins can buy ten trucks?"

Of course Liu Lang didn't believe that the sixteen bullet shells were all left behind bullets that killed officers of the Black Hawk Army or above. One of them was left by the new recruit Niu Er killed Yu Jia. It was an absolute weapon to ward off evil spirits. You have 90,000 silver coins and find sixteen Black Hawk Army majors to line up and shoot them to see if you are?
