612th Battle of Mordan (14)
When the Watts were loyal to the Sunset Empire, they gained 90% control of the Watt Mountains in the Sunset Empire, and after a special class called the Watt Guard (just like the Guardians of the Holy Sepulchre, the number of soldiers can only summon one regiment at most) Sun Lin's system interface, there is a new type of army called the Watt Warhammer on the interface that belongs to the class recruitment.
The so-called Watt Warhammer is actually a copy of the Watt Warhammer Infantry of the Water Kirin Empire, whether it is defensive skills, attack skills to the bonus of defense and attack power and the infantry of the Watt Warhammer Corps, after all, the sun never sets on the great empire is good at archery and swordsmanship, if it is replaced by a unit holding a war sword and a longbow, then the attack skills and defensive skills of these classes may be slightly improved, but there will be no bonus for troops such as using war hammers and spears.
However, although there is no bonus in terms of skills, the overall defense ability of the Watt Warhammer is 3 points higher than that of the Watt Warhammer Infantry, and the attack power is a little higher, and this is without upgrading the weapon.
This is because after the Watt Warhammers became the troops of the Sunset Empire, because the Sunset Empire has a strong armor casting technique, the armor that the Watt Warhammermen are now equipped with is to wear a light chain mail with fine craftsmanship, and put on a steel cuirass with shoulder armor with the characteristics of Renaissance plate armor on the periphery, its thickness is as high as 6 mm, even with the early unimproved Mo Forged Crossbow.
Although the weapons in the hands of the Watt war hammermen are still the ones they are accustomed to, these hammers are not only the head, but also the mold after introducing molten steel into the mold, which is a giant steel hammer head the size of a human head, and the wooden handle it needs is no longer made of the heart of ordinary trees, but made of wood produced by those birch trees that are only available in the East Road, which are extremely flexible, and are specially designed to build the handles of weapons and guns in the hands of the Red Tassel Spearmen and War Warriors of the Eastern Continent.
And when the weapons and armor of these Watt Warhammermen are all upgraded to a notch. These Watt War Hammermen, who are tall enough to be on par with the humans of the Southern Continent, will become a very terrifying class, in addition to morale, the combat effectiveness in all aspects is even stronger than the knights of England on foot, and the total number of attack power and defense power has even reached the Sunset Army, those Xiyi warriors who wear a new type of samurai armor.
If there is any regret about this type of troops, it is only one: as we all know, the Watt clan believes not in the Christianity of the Sun Never Sets Empire, but in the Poseidon Cult, although due to the religious policy of the Sun Never Set Empire and Sun Lin himself is the Christian Pope, there has been no religious conflict between the Poseidon and the Christians before, but the situation that the two sides do not like each other continues.
Now among the Watts, although the Watts are not aggressive. Even most of the Watt clan still have a bit of a "casual encounter" character, but as the Watt clan gradually integrated into the great empire on which the sun never sets, the Watt clan was inevitably divided into two factions under the influence of the culture of the great empire, one faction was called the conservative by later generations, and the other faction was called the radical faction.
The former is led by most of the Watts who are older and have previously benefited from the Water Kirin Empire. thinks that although the Great Empire of the Sun Never Sets has spared itself, he has also been loyal to the Great Empire of the Sun Never Sets. But these two reasons cannot be used to compromise with the great empire on which the sun never sets. Especially on religious issues, and in terms of the political system and the way of governing the people, it should follow the methods of the original Watts.
The latter, which is composed of young people from the Watt clan and some of the younger Watt elders, believes that although the Sun Never Sets Empire persecuted its own compatriots before this, it was caused by the Water Qilin Empire and the Sun Never Setting Empire at that time, and the compensation made after the Sun Never Sets Watt tribe was enough to make up for it, as for religious issues. Didn't you see that the sun never sets, the great empires all recognized that the Poseidon Cult could be believed in within the empire, and let their side contact with the Poseidon bishop in Atlantis again? In the eyes of these Watt radicals, the most important thing at the moment is to use Miss Helen's relationship with General Henry, who never sets, to get their side to accept the governance methods of the great empire on which the sun never sets. Asking for sophisticated weapons from the Sun's army under the pretext of forming an army is also the origin of the Watt's Warhammer in Sunset's army (Helen was neither a radical nor a conservative).
However, since the conservatives are the sworn enemies of the radicals, of course they want to let the goals of the radicals go to waste, and the Watt clan is now almost all cowering in the Watt Mountains, so if Sun Lin wants to recruit these Watt War Hammermen, then he can only recruit them in the generation of the Watt Mountains, and the number of Watt War Hammermen recruited is the same as the number of recruits of the Watt Guard Regiment dedicated to Sun Lin before, and the current sun does not set on a maximum of 30,000 people.
Sun Lin was both distressed and happy about this, and the number of wat and Watt Warhammermen that could be recruited was only so much, unlike the Reykya archers, the class slots of civilian archers in the castle system that have now been replaced, or the Lancester hammermen who replaced the peasant troops, which could be recruited anywhere and at will in various castle-type buildings; And Sun is happy because this kind of infighting within the Watt clan is exactly what Sun Lin wants, because such a situation can not only consume the strength of the Watt clan, but also as long as the radical side formally asks the Sun Never Setting Empire to intervene, then the Sun Never Sets Empire will have the right to influence the Watt Clan, whether in the open or in the dark.
"What? 30,000 watt Warhammer Hand? After receiving the information revealed by Henry, the head of the Papal Guard Regiment immediately showed excitement and confusion in his eyes: "Our reinforcements have arrived so soon?" But Your Excellency, what do you know about the Tao of the Watt Clan, and now I haven't seen these warriors from the Watt clan? ”
"Because of the urgency of the situation, I asked them not to approach the camp before they arrived, but to move towards both sides of the Avenue of Eger, and if the time is right, they should have been ambushed in the two wings of our Papal Guard." Henry put down the baton in his hand and said: "I'm sorry Your Excellency Legion Commander, you should know that at present, among the arms at hand in our army, only the soldiers of the Papal Guard Regiment can withstand the charge of those Aihuasha heavy cavalry, and a class like the Watt Warhammer who is good at assault, if you want to do the greatest damage to the Aihuasha cavalry, you must charge from both flanks of the cavalry unit, so before that, Your Excellency the Legion Commander, it seems that the soldiers of our Papal Guard Regiment need to block the next charge of the Aihuasha cavalry unit." ”
"I understand Your Excellency General Henry." The commander of the Pope's Guard Regiment said with a serious face: "For the victory of the sunset, I and the soldiers will definitely block these heretical cavalry, let them know how strong the warriors of the Dao Lord are, please trust me!" ”
"Then I'll see." Seeing the captain of the Papal Guard Regiment who never set the sun leaving, Henry also turned to Helen with a wry smile on his face and said, "This ...... Helen, why don't you rest in the tent, the scene outside is really not suitable for a female ......... after a while."
However, before Henry's words were finished, Helen said to Henry in a cold voice that did not have the slightest room for maneuver: "I will not let you leave my sight again, and I am also a person who has experienced the battle of Hailan Fort before. With that, Helen closed her mouth and looked at Henry with straight eyes.
"Okay, I got it." Eventually, Henry relented and led Helen to the watchtower in the Sunset Camp, where 10,000 members of the Papal Guard, armed with kite-shaped shields and spears and wearing full-body plate armor, stood in front of the camp and watched ahead. As for why the members of the Papal Guard will wear plate armor, it is because before that, due to the continuous expansion of the production line of the Sunset Plate Armor, in addition to meeting the needs of exports, many well-made full-body sheet metal parts and heavy plate armor are Renaissance cuirasses have been hoarded, which can be seen from the fact that the Sunset Heavy Swordsmen gradually began to equip themselves with cuirasses.
For these extra armor, Sun Lin can't let it go, after all, these armors can be exchanged for money or used to strengthen the combat effectiveness of soldiers, so after thinking about it, when Sun Lin saw the Morganag heavy spearmen displayed in the system, this kind of attack power is slightly inferior to the Papal Guard, but the defensive power is higher than that of the Papal Guard, Sun Lin decisively spent all the war values recently to fuse the attributes of these two arms and obtain the current Papal Guard.
The combat weapons in the hands of these papal guards are still spears and shields, but the shields have become kite-shaped shields, and the spears in their hands have become heavier and thicker than before, and there are bloodletting grooves at the head of the spear, and the biggest change is that the battle armor on these soldiers has changed from 3 layers of battle armor (cotton armor + inlaid leather armor + half-body plate armor) to heavy plate armor. Defense has also risen to more than 20 points.
For such a well-equipped army, Sun Lin even thought that these soldiers would not flinch in the face of the charge of the war elephants, so not to mention the Ehuasha heavy cavalry whose comprehensive strength could not be compared to the English knights of the Great Empire.
"They're finally here." Looking at the dust raised in the distance, Henry, who was located on the watchtower, said lightly: "Then leave it all for me." (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
