Chapter 40 The Legendary Knight [Knight with a Thousand Faces] (please read）
Knight of a Thousand Faces, nameless.
Possibly the most mysterious of the legendary knights in history.
No one knows his name, no one knows when he became a legend, no one has even seen what he looks like..
However, his name, Knight of a Thousand Faces.
This is how it was deeply imprinted on the hearts of many people in later generations..
This is an unknown legend.
If the Death Bird's Voice was founded by the Knight of a Thousand Faces, then this organization is really powerful..
“Fred, who do you think might be trying to get rid of me? "Levi asked.
Fred thought for a while and said: "There is a high probability that he is the Duke of Montenegro..”
“But the Duke of Montenegro clearly had the chance to get rid of me six years ago." Levi said..
“That was different. Six years ago, it was the time of the Holy War, and it was the time when your father had just died. Getting rid of you at that time would easily cause some unnecessary trouble. But now six years have passed, and the Black Snake Knight has transformed. For the dust of history, you are the successor of the Black Snake Knight. Heir has already disappeared from everyone's sight. It is definitely most appropriate to find a killer to kill you at this time to prevent future troubles. However, the Duke of Montenegro probably did not expect that in just six years, you have grown from a child to a man. A true knight." said Fred Knight.
“Is it possible that Abraham of the church did it? "Levi asked.
“It is possible, but the probability is not high. If the church really wants to take action against you, there is no need to go to such trouble. After all, for a duke to kill a nobleman for no reason, he still needs to be secretive and consider the laws of the kingdom and the rules between nobles. As for the church, there is a kind father in heaven, and they are the law. Moreover, Abraham recognizes money but not people. We have already promised to give money, so he should not do this..”
Fred Knight gave his analysis, and Levi thought it made sense..
Looking at it now, it is very likely that it is indeed the Duke of Montenegro..
After all, this group of people has occupied the Tulip Territory and the Storm Territory for so long, but there is still a grudge that makes them feel a little worried when they think about it occasionally..
That is myself, the son of the black snake.
Although he seems to be a prodigal, weak and incompetent, he does not rule out the possibility that the fallen nobles will rise up for revenge in thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, as in the legendary story. As long as there is a slight possibility, it is possible to attack the Duke of Montenegro in the future. cause trouble.
And now six years have passed since the Holy War. No one remembers the Black Snake Knight, and no one cares about such a small baron lord in a remote area. At this time, he just casually hired a killer in his territory, and no one knows where he is. Wouldn't it be nice to feel free to get rid of yourself?.
“Heh, being a noble is quite difficult. I have obviously shown my disinterest in power as much as possible, keeping a low profile as much as possible, living in my own world as much as possible, and not participating in worldly disputes, but there are always some big shots, I am used to looking at me with the eyes of power, treating me as an imaginary enemy, and an obstructive weed on the roadside, and want to pull me out.”
These big shots turn their hands into clouds and turn their hands into rain. They have deep plans, intrigues, and are arrogant and arrogant..
But for ordinary people like Li Wei who are not good at power struggles, there is only one thing that can be done：
With silent liver proficiency, when his power is enough to change everything, he will crush their heads and trample on their dignity.！
“Master Li Wei, although you have advanced to the level of a formal knight, you are still far behind if you want to fight the Duke of Montenegro. Not to mention the Duke of Montenegro, the Seven Horsemen of the North, even the Earl of Blood and the Earl of Yinsha are also great knights. , their personal strength and military strength are far superior to ours, you can't be impulsive." Knight Fred looked at Levi, whose eyes were red, and suddenly said.
“Don't worry, Fred, I have my own sense of proportion. From now on, we can just live as usual. From now on, half of the armor forged every month will be kept for our own use. I will first arm a squad of fifty elite soldiers..”
“If possible, I would like to purchase war horses and train our militiamen into real cavalry. Having a fully armed, well-trained, and mobile cavalry team can also greatly enhance our strength..”
Li Wei told his future plan, the cavalry must be engaged.
In this era of cold weapons, cavalry is the absolute king. A formal knight may be able to deal with ten well-trained ordinary soldiers by himself, but he will never be able to deal with a ten-man cavalry team..
The impact of the hundreds of kilograms of war horses, coupled with the heavy armor, wielding spears, heavy hammers, and swords, is absolutely terrifying..
If Livy had a cavalry team of fifty, he could defeat more than two-thirds of the barony. If he had a cavalry team of several hundred, he would not be afraid even of the earldom. As for thousands of cavalry, he would not be afraid. Man, Levi can’t even think about it now..
During the Millennium Holy War, the Emerald King launched an anti-invasion war against the Tuva Empire. In the name of the King, he only recruited more than 20,000 cavalry from nobles from various places..
In a word, in this world, although knights are powerful, what really determines the direction of large-scale wars is the number of troops, equipment, especially cavalry..
Li Wei had no intention of expanding and developing the army. At first he just wanted to make a little money for his own cultivation..
However, he found that he was wrong. In this world, once he sits in this position, he must always face challenges from all directions..
He must develop military power so that he can protect himself！
And Li Wei's route is to go high-quality, and first build a fully armed cavalry..
Regarding the construction of cavalry and weapons and equipment，
Relying on the booming forging industry in the territory, it is only a matter of time before this problem is solved..
The biggest headache for Li Wei was the horses needed for the cavalry..
As far as Li Wei knew, a high-quality, pure-blooded mountain war horse cost eighty gold coins..
If Li Wei wanted to assemble a whole cavalry team of fifty people, ignoring weapons, equipment and horse armor, the war horses themselves would cost several thousand gold coins..
And this is just for buying it. War horses need to consume dozens of kilograms of feed every day. In order to ensure nutrition, they even have to be mixed with a lot of food for human consumption. For the small lords of this era, this thing is a waste of money. machine.
But when he thought about the possible crises in the future, Li Wei felt that he still had to take action, but he had to think about it in the long term..
After all, it’s still a matter of making money..
“Regarding the cavalry, I agree with the young master’s idea. If we want to regain the territory of the Black Snake family in the future, the cavalry is also indispensable. However, at this stage, the finances of the territory cannot support the cavalry team. Let’s take our time. By the way, there are still There is one thing I think it is necessary to tell you." Knight Fred suddenly said. "The knight you traded with, I think I know who he is..”
“who is？”
“Hog Rider.”
