Eroge: I can Travel To The Ancient World-Chapter 216: Assembling Army

The next day, the Nanhai City was stunned. They saw the silver armored cavalry silently marching through the road.

" It's…It's the Silver Lightning Cavalry!"

" My goodness! What are they doing here?"

" I wonder if something is about to happen."

Not long after, news spread across the city. The Cai Family was sending the Silver Lightning Cavalry to the eastern frontier. However, before the departure, the army is going for a warm up training session.

Jia Hao's eyes narrowed as he saw the Silver Lightning Cavalry outside of Nanhai City. The silver armor of the soldiers shone brightly under the sunlight.

The horses stood straight without any mopvements. They were bigger and more powerful than ordinary wild horses. They are a superior breed of horse with a trace of ancient demonic bloodline.

Even with a march of thousand li, the horse would carry any weight without exhaustion.

" This is the five thousand elite troop of Silver Lightning Cavalry." Old Yang stood beside Jia Hao.

" It would have looked better if the remaining half was here."

" It's alright. We have to use what we have at this moment." Jia Hao smiled.

" Now, Let's see the ground troop."

Old Yang nodded as he gave a signal. Suddenly, the Silver Lightning Cavalry stepped back as the ground troops assembled.

Jia Hao could see the clumsiness of the ground troop. They work normally as workers or farmers during the normal time.

However, When the Cai Family calls, they instantly become soldiers, fighting the enemy to death.

' But, it's true that the power of the ground troop isn't much. However, they are good at being the meat shields.'

' Hmm, Let's not think too pragmatically. They are also humans and they also should live.' Jia Hao sighed inwardly.

" Attention!" Old Yang shouted like a veteran army commander.

" Who are you?"

" Cai Family's Ground Army!"

" What's your goal?"

" Serving the Cai Family and protecting the Great Yan Kingdom!"

" If the enemy comes, What should we do?"

" Slay the enemy!"

" Slay the enemy!"

" Slay the enemy!"

Their voice echoed like a booming thunder, making everyone's blood boil.

" Prepare your weapon! Showcase the basic moves!"

" Shield bearers! Come forward! Archers, go back!"

" What do you think? They would be enough to defend against the dark monster tide?"

Jia Hao turned his head towards Cai Yunhai as he looked at his serious face.

" Does Father-in-law think that we are throwing away the lives of the ground troops?"

Cai Yunhai exhaled a deep breath as he looked at the sky.

" Everyone dies one day. Soldiers are those who already agreed to their fate of serving their master and dying for it."

" There are no battles without casualties. But even if that's true, even if they are destined to die on the battlefield…We must do everything to decrease the death, even if we can't stop it completely."

" I thought Father in law is a cold general. But you do care about your soldiers." Jia Hao smiled.

" Well, I believe as long as you command the army, we have a chance to win the battle."

" I know you want to inform the City Lord and the empire. But, don't you think your enemies would delay the help? They won't let go of this chance of finishing the Cai Family."

Cai Yunhai sighed as he clenched his fist. " I swear, After this monster tide, I will go to the capital for an answer."

Jia Hao fell silent as he assessed the situation. Not long after, craters after craters arrived before the ground troop. Cai Yunhai was stunned when he saw the brand new dark chainmail and daggers before them.

The dark gleam of the products made everyone feel agitated, as if they were some precious treasures.

" These are your new equipment! Take off your old chainmail and get the new ones."

" Jia Hao, Are those the new chainmail of our smithies" Cai Yunhai asked in a surprised voice.

" Father in law is half right." Jia Hao chuckled. " These are the old new chainmail. But they are draped with another layer of new material."

" In that way, we managed to mass produce the equipment within the week."

Even using the blast furnace, crafting so much equipment at once would be impossible for the Cai Family's smithies.

Therefore, Jia Hao simply asked them to only craft perfect equipment for squad commanders and group leaders.

And for others, Jia Hao asked the blacksmiths to simply add an extra layer of coating of dark carbon steel on the old chainmail. It would increase their durability quite a lot, and the sharpness of the weapons would also increase.

' Only when the top of the army remains safe, they would be able to command the rest of the soldiers.'

The foot soldiers were ecstatic when they received the new equipment. Although they were a bit heavy, they could feel the effectiveness of the chainmail and weapons.

" Wow, I never thought I would receive such treasures."

" To think Cai Family would spend for us."

" Long live Cai Family! Long Like General Cai!"

" The training shall go on for two days. So, everyone be prepared for the training!"

" Yes!"

Jia Hao looked at Old Yang and nodded. " Please train them hard. At noon, please give them the food and the energy drink from the Fragran Medicinal Store."

" After some rest, you can resume their training."

" Yes, Young Lord."

" You are leaving?" Cai Yunhai saw Jia Hao turning to leave. Jia Hao shrugged.

" I don't think I have the mood to see some boring army exercise.I shall go back and rest."

" Hmph, Weak." Cai Yunhai snorted. " Just a bit of heat and you are already feeling lethargic?"

" Whatever you say, Father in law."

Jia Hao's skin was far too thick. He didn't care what Cai Yunhai thought. He simply turned around and left.

Cai Yunhai and Old Yang gave each other a wry smile as they saw him leaving.

As Jia Hao walked away, he was strolling aimlessly in the treasure street. He was thinking of going to the Tianxiang Pavilion for lunch.

But as he was walking, his eyes fell on a hawker.

" For the sake of your family's happiness, destroy any evil influence from the house!"

" A real Evil Exorcising Talisman! Keep it with you and no evil shall approach you."

With his Sage's Divination Eyes, Jia Hao looked at the talisman.

[ Evil Exorcising Talisman: Made from yellow paper and chicken blood. A better quality fake talisman]

' Wait, It's similar to the talisman I got from Azure Sea World. If I see…I should have the template of the treasure.'

Jia Hao scanned through the Pot of Miracles and found the real Evil Exorcising Talisman.

[ Evil Exorcising Talisman: A fake Evil Exorcising Talisman of better quality+ Black Dog blood mixed with cinnabar+Pure Peach Wood Paper+50 Miracle Points]

' Wait, If we are primarily going to face the undead army tomorrow, won't the Evil Exorcising Talisman be effective against them?'

" Hoho, Welcome, Young Master. I can see your eyes filled with wisdom. Otherwise, you wouldn't have noticed my true treasures."

The hawker's eyes turned bright as he saw Jia Hao before him.

" So, What would you like to buy? This pure jade incense pot? Or this heavenly bronze bell…"

" This Evil Exorcising Taliman, How many you have?" Jia Hao asked.

" Hoho, Young Master got his eyes on the right thing. Let me see…" The hawker calculated hard for a moment before nodding.

" A hundred taels of gold. Yes, One talisman is a hundred taels of gold. But if you purchase three, you can purchase them at 250 taels of gold."

" Cut the crap." Jia Hao squatted before him as he threw a hundred taels of gold to the hawk.

" Two days. In two days, prepare a thousand talismans for me and I shall give you a thousand tael of gold."

" What do you say? Interested?"

" This…"

The hawker was stunned as he shook his head. " I am a respected runemaster. I don't do…"

" If you don't agree, believe me, you won't be able to step into the treasure market tomorrow.:

" Alright, Two days later, I shall bring you a thousand talismans." The hawker nodded without any hesitation.

However, his back was drenched with sweat. For a moment, He felt a feral dominance around Jia Hao, making him swallow his saliva.

' Fuck, What kind of young man is he? He would really kill me…I can feel it.'

" Very well, I shall be waiting for you then." Jia Hao turned around and left. The hawker rubbed his chest and felt his beating heart.

' What a weird day…'

When Jia Hao returned to the house, he saw Minmin walking out tiredly.

" Young Lord, You are back." She panted.

" As you said, I prepared the shampoo and soaps."
