Suhlen saw the information about the Pterosaur Knight on the system interface. To become a Pterosaur Knight, one also needed to be a Grade 4 Transcendent profession. Otherwise, if one's strength was lower than the Pterosaurs, how could one expect those Pterosaurs to listen to him?
Even the Pterosaurs that had been tamed by Suhlen would not accept a weak knight. Dragons inherited the pride of true dragons. Even if one was stronger than them, they might not necessarily yield. This was why adult Pterosaurs were almost impossible to tame.
Fortunately, all the Pterosaurs in the Pterosaur Knights that Suhlen was going to form were hatched here. This way, the knights and Pterosaurs could grow together.
There were strict requirements for the training and recruitment of Pterosaur Knights. Suhlen's system showed that the current recruitment number was eleven, but in fact, only eight people could be recruited. Karina selected twenty drows from the drows and sent them to be trained as Pterosaur Knights.
Among these twenty people, twelve needed to be eliminated in the end. Only the strongest eight could become Pterosaur Knights. Of course, those who were eliminated would not be allowed to go back. Instead, they would be trained as reserves for the Pterosaur Knights.
In the barracks, Johnson was in charge of training. As the hero who had followed Suhlen the longest, his strength was now at the peak of Grade 3. He only needed to experience a few more wars to break through to Grade 4 Transcendent profession. In the barracks, Johnson was in charge of training the recruits, and Ayton was in charge of maintaining discipline.
In addition to their daily tasks, all the soldiers had to come to the barracks every day for training. The population of North Town City was not large, so it was impossible to recruit too many soldiers. Suhlen could only implement the elite policy and train the soldiers strictly to improve their strength.
"How's the training of the spearmen going?" Suhlen asked the soldiers who were training.
"At present, there are eleven spearmen who have reached the strength of elite spearmen. They are now the captains of various spearmen squads." Johnson led Suhlen to the training yard, pointed to the strong elite spearmen, and said, "Now Ayton is teaching them formation and discipline."
Only by forming a spear formation would the spearmen be able to unleash their full potential, and a spear formation was a test of a troop's discipline.
According to the system, the formation of these pikemen was only a beginner. It wasn't easy to form a formation that could withstand a cavalry charge. Most people's legs would go soft when they saw the mountain-toppling momentum of the cavalry charge, not to mention facing it head-on.
Only the harsh and cruel discipline of the drows could greatly speed up these people's learning of discipline and formation.
"How's the training of the other soldiers going?" Suhlen continued to ask.
Soldiers could gain experience from training in the barracks. Although the experience gained from training could not be compared to the experience gained from battle, it was safe and reliable and could be repeated.
There were nine squads of spearmen in total, and each squad consisted of ten soldiers. These spearmen would be fully equipped after going through rigorous training. They had obtained a large amount of shells from the ankhegs they killed in North Town City, and other than using them to craft full-body armor, the rest were used to craft tower shields.
The shield, which was 1.5 meters tall, could cover the entire person. Not only were the shields made from the shells of the ankhegs tough and sturdy, they were also resistant to strong acids. Their leather armor had also been replaced with half-body armor, and they were wearing a set of ring-shaped armor underneath.
The ring-lock armor was actually made from iron wires that were held together into rings and then chained together. This kind of armor had a very good defense against slashing and piercing. The smithy used to be very slow in making ring-lock armor, but after Suhlen made a wire drawing machine, the speed of making ring-lock armor increased by dozens of times.
As for the longbowmen, all of them were now equipped with centaur longbows. There were more than eighty of them in total, and they were also divided into eight squads. With the addition of the archers from War Spirit, the number of archers in Suhlen's territory was close to a hundred.
These archers formed a phalanx formation and then fired in unison. Finally, there was a prototype of a rain of arrows. Apart from that, all of the soldiers began to learn how to ride horses. Of course, Suhlen did not want them to become full-time riders. It was not realistic at all.
He wanted these soldiers to learn how to ride horses to improve their mobility. In reality, they were just a group of mounted infantrymen who relied on their horses to attack or retreat quickly. When they arrived at the battlefield, they would immediately dismount and pick up their weapons to get into formation.
This method could increase the mobility of the troops, and at the same time, save a lot of stamina, so they would have enough stamina when they entered the battlefield. In fact, this kind of fighting style of mounted infantrymen existed in his previous life. The first time this kind of fighting style appeared in Europe was during the Italian War of the 16th century.
In order to deal with the Spanish who could appear at any time, France ordered the musketeers to ride horses and formed the Willpower Mobile Infantry, which was also called the Dragon Cavalry. In China, this kind of mounted infantrymen appeared during the Tang Dynasty. At that time, the Tang Dynasty formed the Mo Sword Army. This army deterred the world at that time, and even the Turkic cavalry did not dare to fight against it.
The Mo Sword Army was a heavy infantryman. They wore armor, so when they marched, they would ride horses and when they arrived at the battlefield, they would wear their equipment. With the three hundred war horses traded from the Centaur Tribe, the mobility of the North Town Army was greatly improved.
.....
Camp warehouse.
Suhlen had just arrived, and the warehouse manager was already waiting for him.
"Sir."
The warehouse manager respectfully bowed and then handed the accounts to Suhlen for inspection. Although Suhlen could clearly see the stock of various goods in the warehouse, it did not mean that the people inside would not steal. A thorough check of the accounts had to be done every once in a while.
Once there was a big discrepancy in the accounts, it meant that there was a problem with the warehouse manager.
"What about the dragon armor? Has it been completed? "Suhlen checked the accounts and found that there was no problem with the goods and asked.
"This morning, the cobblers had just finished making them. They have not been sent to Madam Hathaway yet." The warehouse manager said.
Cryopterus's skin was given to Hathaway for processing, and then to the cobblers to make dragon armor. After the dragon armor was made, it would be given to Hathaway for enchantment. The dragon armor had just been made.
"Sir, the quality of this batch of dragon armor is very good. When we were in the warehouse, we specially tested it. The defense of these dragon armor is not inferior to ordinary iron armor, and it is also lighter to wear." The manager said excitedly.
"These are all dragon armor, please take a look."
Suhlen followed the manager to the back of a shelf and opened the box, revealing the dragon armor neatly arranged inside. He reached out and picked up a piece of dragon armor. The dragon armor was heavier than ordinary leather armor, and it looked good on the surface.
"Item: Dragon Armor + 1. Item Grade: Low Magic Equipment
Description: Dragon Armor. This is a leather armor made from the dragon skin of Cryopterus. Compared to other leather armor, it is more sturdy and has good magic defense. The characteristics of dragon-type creatures' skin were still preserved on the leather armor. This made the leather armor have good defense against physical and magical attacks, and it wouldn't be easily damaged. The leather armor in front of him was a bit rough, and it wasn't enchanted.
Equipment Effect: Yaron Skin, Tough, Weak Magic Resistance, Defense + 10
[Yaron Skin: This dragon armor has the defensive ability of Yaron's dragon skin. It is immune to attacks with a strength of 5 and below. For attacks with a strength of 5 and above, it can reduce some damage.]
[Tough: This dragon armor is tough, which makes it difficult to destroy.]
[Weak Magic Resistance: This leather armor has good magic resistance. It can resist attacks with a strength of 5 and below.]
The attributes of this dragon armor were very good. Even if it was not enchanted, it was already stronger than many iron armors. If it was enchanted by Hathaway, the attributes of these leather armors would be greatly enhanced. A total of 37 dragon armor were made. Except for the winged dragon knights, the rest of the leather armor would be rewarded. Only those who made outstanding contributions would receive the dragon armor as a reward. Even those winged dragon knights who received the leather armor would have to use points in the future.
Suhlen took all the dragon armor that had not been enchanted and went to Hathaway's laboratory. Because Suhlen sent people to collect all kinds of materials, Hathaway did not have to worry about the materials at all and often did experiments in the laboratory.
It was not a small amount of work to enchant all 37 sets of leather armor. Fortunately, these things were not needed immediately, so Suhlen was not in a hurry. In fact, Suhlen wanted to learn wizard spells when he had nothing to do.
After some understanding, he found that a wizard needed to learn the spell model of the spell to release a spell. The spell model looked very complicated, but it was the foundation of the spell. If he wanted to learn the spell, he had to learn it.
Suhlen was very interested in learning these spells, and his power of the will was not low. Learning the spell model was not difficult, but boring learning was always boring. So after learning, Suhlen would explore the mystery of life with Teacher Hathaway.
At the same time, it was also to verify the knowledge of spells learned in class. The first spell that Suhlen learned was the Wizard's Hand. The spell model of this spell was the simplest. It was not difficult to learn, but it had a wide range of uses. Basically, every wizard would modify this spell according to their own needs.
For example, some people modified the Wizard's Hand to be very similar to a human's hand. This kind of Wizard's Hand had the flexibility of a human's hand. It was said that a legendary wizard had modified the Wizard's Hand into various versions, such as the Hand of Ice, the Hand of Tremor, and the Hand of Flame. They were not very powerful, but they were very popular with witches.
Suhlen had also done some research on these spells. Besides the Wizard's Hand, he also learned the Shadow Tentacle. This spell could summon shadow energy to form a tentacle to tie up the enemy. It was not difficult to release, but it was very practical.
After learning these two spells, Su Lun also tried to add his power of thunder and lightning to them. After several experiments, he finally succeeded. Kris also personally experienced it. After only one round, the little succubus begged for mercy and surrendered.
