Chapter 146 Mission: Cutting Off the Meridians without Light
The forest was quiet. The sunlight that fell through the tall treetops and the slender branches seemed warm and bright. The scales of light scattered on the hardened mud road. The stones that appeared from time to time on the roadside were already covered with green lines. The dark green moss spread along the surface of these inorganic substances, covering and wrapping them.
The team led by Ji Lin had been marching in this long forest for three hours.
The soldiers in black armor rode tall horses, guarding five four-wheeled carriages with wooden baffles and covered with a layer of linen. From time to time, they made dull sounds due to bumps on this hardened mud road.
Whatever was in these carriages, they were very heavy.
Ji Lin had no permission to know what was in these carriages. Even though he was the highest officer in this transport team, the order he received was to transport these things to the target town.
This time, he became the highest commander of a material transport convoy without his subordinates, which was good.
The original commander of this team was put in solitary confinement for causing trouble after drinking, and he, an outsider with a transfer order, naturally replaced the original commander and became the commander of this freight team.
Behind him, the guard cavalry, wearing iron-black chain mail with simple reinforcement patterns, gray cotton lining, sharp long sabers, and crossbows, followed him forward.
Even on the avenue in the forest, scattered with fragmented light, they exuded a cold breath.
A total of one hundred guard cavalry.
All of them belonged to his command.
Not only these cavalry, but also the fully equipped and fully armed infantry outside the barracks he saw at the departure point. The difference between them was that they used different weapons.
Now that Ji Lin already has musketeers, he will no longer be greedy for the blueprint of conventional infantry in the cold weapon era, although these accompanying guard cavalry are really handsome. If placed in a fourth-level territory, it is also an absolutely strong army.
All the standard equipment has silently shown him the manufacturing strength of this world.
[Crossbow Ranger]
[Melee Defense]: 40
[Moving Speed]: 30km/h
[Armor Strength]: 50
[Organization/Morale]: 70
[Weapon Range (Crossbow)]: 170
[Weapon Power (Crossbow/Saber)]: 25/40
[Ammunition Capacity]: 30
[Features]:
Crossbow Archer: This unit can shoot while moving, but the accuracy will decrease accordingly.
Buffer Armor: This unit is equipped with buffer runes that can reduce the impact force, which makes them take less damage when hit.
Light Sharp Blade: The light and sharp blade makes them more powerful when facing low-armor enemies, but they seem a little powerless when facing high-armor enemies. Melee against enemies with armor below 30, the weapon power is increased by an additional 5-15, and decreases as the target's armor strength increases.
[Be careful! They are not only good at long-range shooting! 】
(It's been a long time since I last saw the introduction of the arms. If you have any suggestions for the new template, please raise them here, or join the group to communicate with me.)
If an X-level copy only has these ordinary arms, which are equivalent to elite cold weapon cavalry, it will not be a real X-level copy. Who knows what else is waiting for him later.
And the attributes of this crossbow ranger are quite good. Ji Lin, who has already obtained the musketeer, looked at the attribute panel and tried hard to suppress the idea of taking this arm back. He couldn't afford it, really couldn't afford it.
The arrangement of the system is quite good, but there is one thing that is not so good.
Ji Lin can't ride a horse.
In his command career, he rarely came into contact with the horse species. He either relied on his legs or on a car. The system obviously did not consider this. Problems that can be solved by himself are not a problem in the eyes of the system.
But as a centurion, if he dismounts and covets a moment of pleasure and rides in a comfortable carriage with those grooms, his prestige will also decline in the eyes of these soldiers.
Although there are stirrups and saddles, Ji Lin is really a little nervous now. Imagine a long-distance bus, passing by gravel and small mounds of earth from time to time, and then strengthen the vibration a little bit, that is Ji Lin's current experience. He tried his best to sit firmly on the leading horse.
He could only let his mind go blank and focus on other places - fortunately, this leading horse was very docile, and Ji Lin did not need to spend time to subdue it, otherwise he really had to consider taking a rest in the carriage.
Ji Lin set his sights on the star called the sun, which gradually passed the highest point and began to sink to the west.
Its light is still bright, spreading its own brilliance in this world day after day, but what does the lightlessness in this copy mean?
And... the existence of the guard cavalry.
A weapon is made to exist to destroy its enemies. Military affairs always have a goal that needs to be solved first.
Then the existence of the guard cavalry must face the enemies he needs to fight.
This journey can never be safe and smooth.
The cavalrymen watched their centurion exuding a solemn and solemn manner while marching, silently driving his horse forward. They felt that this new centurion was not as easy to deal with as the previous centurion. The old centurion liked to sit in the carriage and enjoy the sense of security and ease of being surrounded and guarded by the cavalrymen.
Although the new centurion was young, the temperament of an old officer was definitely not something that could be shown through training and posturing. He walked at the front of the escort team and led them forward.
Taken by the military temperament of the new centurion, the rangers marched in a very upright posture, and no one dared to talk to their colleagues during the march.
Even the carriage drivers did not dare to make a sound when they saw such a silent march, for fear that they would be punished by military law.
The transport convoy was moving forward, but only the sound of horses' hooves hitting the hard mud and wheels rolling up the mud on the ground was heard.
