Chapter 52: Bandit Tracks

When Tu Lichun hurried into the workshop, Li Ze was stroking the finished leather armor with satisfaction. After more than a dozen processes, the best cowhide finally became the extremely simple leather armor in his hand, with a hole in the middle so that his head could drill through. On the edges of the front and back, ropes were wrapped around in a 8-shaped shape. When putting on it, you just need to tighten the bottom rope head and tie it, even if you protect the key points of the front chest and back.

Although this thing is simple, for ordinary troops of this generation, there are already good protective gear and armor only available to elite troops. Moreover, a pair of iron armor costs too much iron ingots, which is even more troublesome and expensive to make. Even Li Ze's old man, the dignified military governor who ruled the four states, only had three thousand armored soldiers under his command.

And the other soldiers who were temporarily conscripted before the war will still give you a set of clothes, but as for armor, I'm sorry, there is no one.

The people even prohibit privately hiding armor. If anyone dares to break this ban, his head will basically be shaking. Of course, things are not completely absolute. In some places, the great men have privately hiding a few pairs of iron armor at home, and everyone turns a blind eye.

Li Ze's leather armor is already very precious to the most ordinary soldiers. Li Ze is now quite wealthy, but he cannot equip his subordinates with iron armor and bring in large quantities of iron ingots. Moreover, after he supported the people of the secret camp, he really did not have the money to make iron armor for his soldiers.

So, he took a look at the iron armor in Wuyi County. Unfortunately, there were only twenty ones.

Of course, even if there are only twenty, it is a considerable wealth for Li Ze.

Of course, the cowhide left with the edges and corners after making leather armor cannot be spared. The skillful women made them into pairs of wrist guards, knee pads, and elbow pads, which more or less have some protective effects on the warriors.

"The skin I got this time made a total of 300 pairs of leather armor." Li Ze looked at Tu Lichun happily and said, "Tu Er never disappointed me, this time, he made another great contribution."

Tu Lichun smiled and said, "Compared with these leather armor, I like the horse he sent back more. Young Master, I want one."

"I guess you've fallen in love with the fiery red war horse." Li Ze smiled, "Is it?"

"It's really not. That's the best one Tu Er got back this time. Of course, it's Gui Gongzi. I want that blue one." Tu Lichun shook his head and said.

"No, the best one belongs to you, BMW is given a hero. Among our group, you are the only one who deserves the war horse. I want to ride on his back. Maybe he will push me down, and I will definitely not be able to control him." Li Ze shook his head and said, "Its ability will be buried under my crotch." Li Ze said, "Don't refuse, it's yours."

Tu Lichun, who was happy, said: "Young Master, if you want to be brave, Shi Zhuang is probably stronger than me."

"Or!" Li Zeman said carelessly: "But you are more intimate with me. Good things shouldn't be given to your relatives?"

Tu Lichun took a deep breath and his eyes suddenly turned red. The more casual Li Ze was, the more moved him.

"Thank you, my son, I won't be pretentious, but please give it a name!" Tu Lichun said.

"Just call him Huoyun, his whole body is red without a trace of hair. When he runs, he must be as gorgeous as the fire clouds in the sky." Li Ze smiled, "What do you think?"

"It's called Huoyun." Tu Lichun nodded heavily.

"Looking back, you will take it and get close to it. The better the horse, the more difficult it is to surrender. But once you are convinced, it will be your best partner. I look at the horse, which is very spiritual." Li Ze walked out and Tu Lichun followed closely.

"Young Master said yes."

The two walked out of the warm leather goods workshop and walked towards the bow workshop in the wind and snow all over the sky.

"Depending on your appearance, is there something wrong?" Li Ze asked.

"Yes, news came from the secret camp that Xinyuehu found a large number of bandits in Daqingshan. The preliminary investigation was the rioters in the Henghai Army that Yang Kai was worried about. They fled into Daqingshan and have now entered our Wuyi territory." Tu Lichun said.

"Is Heng Haijun so useless?" Li Ze sneered: "How many people are there?"

"More than a thousand people."

Li Ze suddenly stopped: "So much?" He was startled.

"Young master, it's not what you think. Among these people, there are more old, weak, women and children, and there are about four or five hundred young and strong people!"

Li Ze let out a long breath, rolled his eyes and looked at Tu Lichun: "Don't breathe heavily when you speak in the future. There are really thousands of young and strong people, so don't you scare me to death."

"Even thousands of people are not in trouble." Tu Lichun said with a smile: "According to the information feedback from Xinyuehu, they are basically untrained farmers, and their weapons are even less than pitiful."

"Just like this, a group of people even let them escape to our side. Henghai Army will really cause trouble for us!" Li Ze frowned and said, "So many people have entered Daqingshan in such a season, lacking food and clothing. They must have no courage to go to Shiyi. We are born in Wuyi and have no garrison. We will definitely come to make our own ideas. It will be a headache to think about it."

"There is only a secret camp to clean up them." Tu Lichun said.

"There is only this. Let Xinyuehu pay close attention to the whereabouts of these people and find their place. We will catch them off guard." Li Ze said: "Let's go back and send this news to Yang Kai and ask him to deliver twenty pairs of iron armor to me. By the way, don't tell him that so many people have come, otherwise he would have panicked and asked Cao Xin for help, and then said some little thieves, I'll send him away."

"Okay, anyway, the last time he came to see the farmer training in our farm, he praised him a few words, saying that these farmers were already powerful. At that time, we would say that they were taking these farmers out to fight. I think he would believe it, and then asked him to report his merits to Cao Xin, and he said that he had gathered the troops in Wuyi to wipe out these bandits and had enough face." Tu Lichun said with a smile.

"This idea is good!" Li Ze smiled and said, "This man has boarded our boat now. It is OK to have the opportunity to arch him up, but the premise is not to ruin our affairs."

While speaking, the two walked into the bow yard. Dozens of bows had been made on the shelves in the house. Tu Lichun picked up a pair of them casually, pulled them, and shook his head: "It's a little softer."

"You can't consider your arm strength!" Li Ze also took a pair and pulled a bow with all his strength, but his face turned red.

"Young master, be careful, let go slowly, don't dodge your arms!" Tu Lichun quickly stepped forward and helped him.

"It's not easy to train archers!" Li Ze said with regret: "There are hundreds of people in our secret camp, and only more than twenty people have been barely useful."

Li Ze tilted his head and couldn't help but think of a movie I had watched in his previous life. The overwhelming feather arrows blocked the sunshine in the sky. When he thought about it, he felt cold all over.

"I will pick out some of the farmers when I look back. A few of them love hunting, but they usually use soft bows. They only need to practice hard and make progress very fast." Tu Lichun said.

"That's it. The archers like archers should be trained more. Unlike spearmen, they can stab people after practicing for a few days. They have to look a little bit, and they will not be able to achieve any effect after a year." He pulled out a bundle of feather arrows, held them in his hand and looked at them, and finally nodded with satisfaction: "The masters in our farm are still very attentive. But they don't have enough manpower. Look, now there are only a few feather arrows, which is enough for dozens of our archers to shoot for four or five rounds and then they are gone."

"Young Master, it's good to shoot three rounds on the battlefield." Tu Lichun smiled. "This is a veteran. When facing the impact of enemy cavalry, he is not panicked and his hands don't tremble. If the novice doesn't have a accurate number."
