Hutt took a bite of refined wheat flour pancake and felt a slight fever in his eyes - how long has he not eaten it? Since leaving the orc Kingdom, the Centaurs have no choice in their diet. They even forget the taste of their favorite refined wheat flour.

"How long do you think it will take the enemy to come to the mountain castle?" Richard loosened the salted beef with a spoon, scraped a spoonful of jam, and tore it in the cake.

"Certainly not soon." Hutt smiled contemptuously. "Wilderness people are bastards who only take advantage and don\'t suffer losses. It will take at least a few days to organize military food alone. I think it will take at least ten days."

Annie breathed a sigh of relief. Ten days was enough to wait until the reinforcements of the commercial firm arrived and then withdraw calmly. She is a businessman, inexplicably involved in a war is not in line with her interests; She is a woman and can\'t bear to let the lost guard go through another test.

"They are indeed a grass-roots team, but Gaoshan fort can\'t relax its vigilance because it underestimates the enemy. Since it knows that it will be fought sooner or later, double the sentry from today. The soldiers take turns to rest and keep on duty." Richard said.

"Your Excellency is wise." Hutt timely flattered.

"To tell you the truth, I wanted to beat them for a long time, but I didn\'t find a chance for a moment. Unexpectedly, I dared to gather together and deliver them to the door, and just cleaned them up together, ha ha." Richard looked up and laughed three times.

Gunther folded three cakes into a pile and dried half of them. He was suddenly startled, choked and almost rolled his eyes. He quickly took up his ale glass and poured it into his mouth.

"By the way, Hutt, what weapons are you centaurs good at?"

"My Lord, centaurs are excellent archers. They can send arrows into the rabbit\'s eyes a hundred steps away." Hutt rubbed his hands. "But bows and arrows are a very delicate weapon. Our clan has been away from our country for a long time, and now there are few useful bows."

"Your clan... Hey, wait." Richard suddenly found a blind spot, "your clan can\'t only have adult soldiers, where are other old and young women and children?"

The 21 centaurs who joined Gaoshan castle were full-term men, which did not meet the age and gender composition of a tribe.

"They..." Hutt blinked twice, especially innocent. "Their foot journey is relatively slow, and they drive a lot of grazing animals. It will take a few days to fall behind."

Richard looked at that simple and honest face and suddenly understood - this goods was to hedge risks!

If Richard defeated the indigenous allied forces, he would naturally take other members of the tribe into the mountain castle. And if the indigenous coalition turned over Richard\'s car, it would be convenient for Hutt to run with some young soldiers. After all, they have four legs!

I can\'t imagine who is more stupid than who these days.

It looks like a simple goods, has more eyes than monkeys, and the principle of not putting eggs in a basket is implemented incisively and vividly.

"Then remember to tell the Sentinels not to make an oolong." people came to work for him, but Richard couldn\'t even tolerate this careful thought.

"Miss Anne." he tapped the pine table with his fingers and called back the half elf who was obviously distracted. "I wonder if your firm can lend Gaoshan castle a sum of 500 gold coins."

Richard was not worried about more lice and debt, and he was completely in a broken state of mind about the financial situation. Anyway, since I already owe 1500 gold coins, it\'s no big deal to borrow another 500.

Borrowing money to develop the army is better than borrowing money to gamble. There is no need to worry about being chased by thugs because I have an army.

"No problem. I can decide 500 gold coins."

Usury is also one of the core businesses of VOYA firm, but Annie didn\'t mention interest at all. Now half elves are under the eaves and have to bow their heads.

"Gaoshan castle will always thank you for your generosity." Richard nodded in a decent aristocratic tone.

After dinner, Richard took Hutt to pat his chest to ensure that the bow and arrow would be in place immediately. At the same time, he told him to start training with the Centaur tomorrow, and then he took the 500 gold coins delivered by Anne into the house.

Centaurs use bows and arrows that are slightly different from those of ordinary archers.

The expensive longbow is recognized as the strongest bow in the mainstream military equipment. It is famous for its long range and great power. Equipped with a half pound armor breaking arrow, it can even directly shoot through the knight\'s plate armor 50 steps away.

However, because sitting on horseback is not practical and convenient, human archers can\'t use long bows at all. They can only choose short bows with a lot of poor range and accuracy. Contrary to the intuitive impression of many people, due to the gap in equipment, archers will suffer from shooting directly against infantry archers.

The flexibility of cavalry and the power of long bow are like white rose and red rose to mankind. They have always been contradictory options that can not be obtained. If you want this, you must give up that.

But this principle does not hold true in front of centaurs. In this line, they are born with the creator God to enjoy food. Due to the special body structure of the integration of man and horse, the Centaur can shoot with a long bow during running, taking into account flexibility and power. It is more powerful than ordinary archers!

Open the system panel, the heavy and shining gold coins disappear without a trace, and there is an extra balance of 500000 dinars in the shop.

The Centaur has a purple shirt and a long bow, fifteen thousand dinars, and twenty-one according to the number of people. Cone headed white feather arrows, 800 dinars a pot, 40 pots are at least.

A large sum of money in the eyes of ordinary civilians can only be heard when used to arm the army. In the blink of an eye, there is no more than half of it. A famous general said that war is to burn money. Richard thought this was completely nonsense, because burning money would not burn so fast.

The development of Gaoshan castle is like a bottomless hole swallowing gold, and now it seems that the return is far away.

Richard was frustrated for a long time and didn\'t relax. He originally thought that being a Lord was the castle, the maid, and the lady. In fact, he didn\'t see the light. There were endless hearts and debts left. It was better to be a bandit.

The more he thought, the more angry he became. He kicked over the empty gold coin box and fell asleep on the bed.

The next morning.

The purple long bow was distributed to the Centaur, and Hutt began to train with his people.

Richard watched them practice and was worthy of being a famous family of good shooters. Even the worst dozen Centaur herdsmen could hit the thick pile at the mouth of the bowl 50 steps away when they found their hand feeling.

Experts look at the door. This level is much better than the so-called hundred steps through the Yang. The level of human elite archers can only be regarded as amateur voters in the view of centaurs.
