Lord of all tribes

Chapter 487 Rejecting the Horse
The purpose of the Principality of Kena, Luo Lin, is also very clear. Most likely, it is to let Luo Lin send troops to the Aowei Kingdom to fight against the Aowei Kingdom, so that their war pressure will be much less, at least with the entanglement of the Luo Lin Kingdom, The Aowei Kingdom would never dare to assemble the national army to attack the Principality of Keina with all its strength.

Luo Lin is very clear about this point of the Duchy of Kena, but sending troops to the Aowei Kingdom is also in line with the interests of the Luo Lin Kingdom.

Although it is said that the establishment of the Luo Lin Kingdom is not yet very secure, but a great opportunity to promote stability and harmony is in front of him, and Luo Lin will not give up lightly.

Blindly guarding the defense can only ensure immediate stability, and only by quelling all battles by means of war can the Luo Lin Kingdom achieve long-term stability.

Although this principle is very simple, there are not many people who can really understand it.

Reaching a temporary military alliance with the Principality of Kena is in line with the current interests of the Rollin Kingdom, so Rollin is willing to do it and facilitate the formation of this matter.

These are things Luo Lin is willing to do, because the implementation of this matter will do more good than harm to the entire kingdom.

As far as the current situation is concerned, this is the case, if you don't fight, you will retreat.

If you don't take the initiative to start a war, when others are fully prepared, the footprints of the war will be trampled on your face, making you feel the impatient slap in the face.

The situation does not allow Luo Lin to hesitate any longer, he must make a decision early.

Less than half a month after the Constantine envoy from the Principality of Kaina left the Kingdom of Rollin, 5000 million gold coins were transported to the Kingdom of Rollin through secret channels.

Immediately, Luo Lin sent people to transport him to the capital.

Looking at the dozens of carts of gold coins in front of him, Luo Lin's mood jumped. No matter what time it is, money is a good thing.

Although many things cannot be bought with money, but without money, everything is lost.

Luo Lin was going to set off in person after dealing with some matters in the kingdom to completely solve the hidden danger of the Aowei Kingdom.

The fighting power of the iron cavalry of the Aowei Kingdom still left a deep impression on Luo Lin. For this reason, Luo Lin personally asked the elder of the dwarves, Old Tonghammer, and asked him what secret weapon he had to restrain the large-scale cavalry charge.

The old copper hammer also gave several plans, but there is still a certain gap between what Luo Lin expected.

The suggestion given by the old copper hammer is to make more horse-drawn carriages with thick barbs hanging from them.

After forming a certain scale, such a horse-rejecting carriage can cause huge damage to small-scale cavalry, but its disadvantages will be exposed when it encounters a joint attack of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of troops.

Because its limitations are too large, it may block the two rows of cavalry in front, let them fall down, hang on the barbs, and disappear, but as these barbs are destroyed by the corpses of enemy horses and soldiers After occupying, the following cavalry naturally avoided these carriage rejections and continued to charge forward.

It is precisely because of these disadvantages and shortcomings that Rowling said that such a horse-rejecting carriage can have a certain effect, but if he wants to rely on it to defeat the iron cavalry of the Aowei Kingdom, it is undoubtedly a dream.

If the iron cavalry of the Aowei Kingdom were so easy to deal with, they would not have achieved such a great reputation among the kingdoms.

Therefore, in order to solve the hidden dangers of the iron cavalry of the Aowei Kingdom, another shortcut needs to be found.

In fact, it is a good way to shoot with dwarven muskets, but the cavalry is different from the infantry. The convenience of long-range strikes will be completely lost.

However, if there is a row of heavy armored infantry in front, the musketeers displayed behind the heavy armored cavalry cannot directly loose ammunition on the enemy cavalry.

Although muskets are powerful, they are different from longbows. Longbows can be fired from the back, and can unscrupulously launch long-range attacks across the crowd, but muskets can only be fired straight forward.

If there was a row of heavy armored infantry in front of them, I am afraid that these heavy armored cavalry would be accidentally killed by these musketeers before the cavalry got close.

The current smoothbore guns have not yet achieved that level of incomparable accuracy, and the accuracy of shooting is not as high as expected.

Of course, if the terrain can be selected well when forming an army, let the musketeers be displayed on both sides of the army, and attack from both sides unscrupulously.

In fact, it is still difficult to realize such a vision. The requirements for the terrain are extremely high, and it is best to have areas with high slopes on both sides.

Now there is no particularly good way to directly eliminate the iron cavalry of the Aowei Kingdom at one time. In addition to using human lives to make up for it, Luo Lin can only reduce the combat effectiveness of the cavalry within a certain range.

It is not without reason that cavalry can be used as the ace arm of plain warfare.

Luo Lin asked Old Tonghammer to make more carriages and iron bumps with barbs, mainly to guard against the iron cavalry of the Aowei Kingdom.

The barbed iron lump is about the size of a little finger, and there are sharp barbs all over it.

There is no such thing as iron-wrapped horseshoes in this era. When the meaty hooves of those strong war horses step on the iron bumps, they will definitely suffer pain and injury. Once the horseshoes are injured, the war horses will collapse on the ground obediently. , lost combat effectiveness.

In Luo Lin's eyes, the enemy cavalry without the support of their war horses was just a bunch of oily wheat waiting to be harvested, and they were cleaned up in a hurry.

Before the expedition, the Kingdom of Rollin has one more matter waiting for Rollin to make a decision.

That is the selection of the state religion of the Rolling Kingdom.

Originally during the period of the Reynolds Kingdom, most of the Reynolds Kingdom promoted the belief in the goddess of harvest, because the teachings of the goddess of harvest are peace, kindness, and good harvest.

This is quite in line with the demands of ordinary civilians, so it is quite popular in the Kingdom of Renault.

Previously, Rollin's Galactica also believed in the Goddess of Harvest, and in the city of Galactica, Rollin personally presided over the construction of a temple for the Harvest Goddess.

The reason why Luo Lin recommended the Goddess of Harvest in the first place was because the Archbishop of Isaiah was willing to leave the prosperous Xiguang City and come to the barren and depleted Garadi before Luo Lin had risen. Do your best to save the people and spread the teachings of the Harvest Goddess.

It was also for this reason that Luo Lin allowed the temple of the Harvest Goddess to prevail in his territory.

But now that the Reynolds Kingdom has been destroyed, and the original Garadiland has also transformed into the Rollin Kingdom, many things have changed. Is it necessary for those things that stick to the rules to follow the inherent pattern?
