Of course, Zhai Shanchuan is very powerful, but in terms of strength, he is still somewhat inferior to Dazhuang.
Da Zhuang was a bit dull compared to Zhai Shanchuan. You have to know that back then, Zhai Shanchuan raised horses and did business on the border. He was smart enough.
Dazhuang has immense strength, but he doesn't know how to use it.
At most, he would just charge into the crowd with a big knife.
So, apart from those two, the only one left under his command was Liu Lang.
This guy is quite strong. When they first met, if it weren't for the iron chains binding him and the fact that he was so hungry that he was skin and bones, Liu Feng wouldn't have been able to take him down so easily.
However, even though Liu Lang was very strong, he was still a normal person, and his strength was still far inferior to that of the two people in front of him.
I've already tested my own spear; it weighs no more than forty pounds. It's definitely not suitable for them.
"By the way, where's my waist chain?"
Liu Feng looked at the butt of the gun.
Zhang Tiechui had created a ring around this place.
The reason for the ring is to attach the waist chain here.
Many people may know the power of a spear in a charge.
But nobody knew that the spears used in the charge were the easiest to break.
Because of the immense impact, the spear, once embedded in the body, encountered tremendous resistance and could not be pulled out directly.
It could only be delivered during the cavalry charge.
The most important thing here is to rely on the strength of the horses, because horses are very powerful.
When charging into battle with a long spear, there is another problem: it is easy to slip out of one's hand.
Therefore, if cavalry were to actually use lances to charge into the enemy's formation, they would have to pay a heavy price.
Therefore, most cavalrymen were unwilling to use lances as their charging weapon; only infantrymen used lances, while cavalrymen primarily used sabers.
This is because the curved, streamlined design of the saber provides almost no resistance during the slashing process.
What Liu Feng needs to do right now is to simulate how to deal with a long spear charge.
Because in Liu Feng's plan, Liu Lang and his heavy cavalry would all be equipped with long spears in the future.
After all, according to Liu Feng's observation and understanding, the Dali Dynasty at present does not have cavalry equipped with long spears.
Therefore, since we lack experience in this area, we need to start from scratch.
"The waist chain isn't finished yet, it'll be tomorrow."
Zhang Tiechui replied with a smile.
Liu Feng nodded, took the spear and went to the courtyard outside. After getting used to the weight of the spear, he began to practice.
This immediately caused the people in the regular blacksmith workshops to exclaim in surprise.
Liu Feng waved his hand dismissively.
Just as I put away my spear and was about to leave, I heard a faint voice coming from the corner.
"General Liu, I also want to fight alongside you in battle."
"And me..."
"We all want to kill all those damned northern barbarians."
Liu Feng turned his head away.
The people who just spoke were a few apprentices learning in the blacksmith's workshop.
Some of these apprentices were children of villagers, born and raised there, but others came from other places, arriving as migrants.
They were all quite young, around fifteen to eighteen years old.
They were just beginning to understand things, full of youthful vigor, and they were all captivated and inspired by Liu Feng's recent gunplay.
They were strong, young, honest, and hardworking, which is why Zhang Tiechui chose them.
Logically speaking, they are already quite fortunate to be able to work in the blacksmith's shop and have enough to eat and wear.
Why aren't these kids satisfied yet?
Zhang Tiechui got angry when he heard them say that.
"What are you bunch of bastards saying?"
Is going to the battlefield such an easy thing?
"The battlefield is a place where you can kill and burn, and lose your life at any moment."
After all, these were the people he had chosen, and they had been with him for quite some time. Zhang Tiechui didn't have any children yet, and he had always treated these young men well, so he had long developed feelings for them.
Therefore, Zhang Tiechui's tone now carries a hint of disappointment and frustration.
"What you need to do is to properly forge weapons here."
"These weapons of yours are for killing enemies on the battlefield."
"Besides, each of you has different strengths."
"You've become skilled at forging longswords, and you're the fastest at sharpening them..."
"These are your strengths."
"You should make good use of your strengths and do your jobs well; that's how you help the General."
“You haven’t been trained and don’t know how brutal it is to fight on the battlefield. If you go there, you’ll only be a burden to the general.”
Do you know?
The apprentices nodded reluctantly.
The apprentices nodded reluctantly, but they were somewhat intimidated by Zhang Tiechui's tyranny and were very resentful.
Liu Feng smiled. It didn't matter. These people were of good quality, and besides, he had his own standards for selecting soldiers.
Moreover, this standard will only go higher in the future.
Once he has resolved all the current external pressures, he will then let Lin Xiaoxi continue to work on the militia in the village.
By then, these silly kids will realize how naive they were.
He carried the long spear back into the courtyard.
Liu Feng's ambitions went far beyond simply becoming a minor county magistrate.
