Chapter 95
Morris' men brought armor and an axe the next morning. Xiao Yu was very satisfied with the quality of his weapons. Although they were not as good as the weapons and armor produced by the blacksmith shop he had but they were strong and durable. Morris isn't bragging! Warhammer companies are good at their business.
The weapon did not cost too much money as it was light and produced in large quantities. Ballista is expensive.
Ballista is not mass produced. Companies need good craftsmen to produce such weaponry. On the other hand, some parts of the ballista must be custom made so that the price also goes up. Moreover, Xiao Yu had the changes added to the cost. In the end, the price of one small ballista reached 5,000 gold coins.
It's just a little ballista. If he wanted to buy a large ballista for a siege that could shoot hundreds of steps then he would have to pay tens of thousands of gold coins.
The balista and catapults Carrie used to surround the Lion town were indeed expensive. If Xiao Yu could not suppress them by using the Destroyer then they would create great damage to the Lion town.
In addition, there are some ballistas that have wind magic arrays engraved on them for better accuracy, longer range, and faster launch. Even some wealthy regions could not afford it.
This was not a weapon but a high-level magic item. This magical item was like a small missile.
High-level ballistas carved with magic arrays and magic spears can destroy city walls or gates in one go.
However, such weapons must be produced by powerful magicians and alchemists. The price is very high and not everyone can afford it.
Fifty ballistas cost 250,000 gold coins. Xiao Yu had a lot of gold coins so he did not care about the cost. In accordance with the contract he paid half of the money as a deposit and the remaining half would be paid in the city of Tito when he got the goods.
Xiao Yu was satisfied with that hand axe. He had bought 2,500 of them which meant about 10 axes for one orc. (he excluded the female orc here)
He did not plan to let the Orcs use hand axes in close combat but to throw them at the enemy. The best Orc weapon in close combat was their fist.
“Ya... That way..Play to be more deadly. Do you understand? Why are you trying to save them? I bought so much that you can use it as you want! Ok, make a group of ten people and choose a captain. Captain will be in the middle while others shoot!” Xiao Yu was teaching the orcs.
Orcs are strong, tough, but they are not quick thinkers. Xiao Yu could not help but sigh at it. Xiao Yu discovered that Orcs were not good at learning. It took them a long time to get something. At one point he wanted to kick their leg furiously but knew that it would itch!
In the end, he decided to slowly make them learn. God is fair to all of his creation. The Orcs were extremely powerful but their brains were slightly left behind.
A human warrior would get used to throwing an axe after a few practice runs. However, humans could not produce such destructive power with a hand axe. Orcs could throw axes and could pierce doors as thick as 10 cm!
That meant that the hand axe could pierce through the armor! They would greatly harm the human warriors who cultivate battle energy! Xiao Yu believed that a strong warrior would be sent to deal with him. The Orcs were brave but they could not face a warrior with a flexible body and incredible martial arts. However, a warrior could not hide from so many hand axes!
Moreover, Xiao Yu did not have an elf archer by his side so he had to solve the problem of long-range attacks and he had decided to make up for it with a hand axe.
Of course, the ballista has not been put into the equation. The power of a ballista would be incredible if 50 of them were used simultaneously.
The flower was even finished after two more days. Many nobles left and Xiao Yu decided to move as well. Duke Simm had come to send Xiao Yu personally. He even gave Xiao Yu a precious gift. Xiao Yu thanked the old fox with a smile on his face.
Xiao Yu asked Wang Tian Hu to let Siwen's mother return to the Lion town with them as well. Wang Tian Hu hesitated at first but eventually agreed to the proposal. He did not want to mess with Xiao Yu. Moreover, Wang Tian Hu believed that Xiao Yu's future was limitless if he could return to the Lion town in one piece.
Xiao Yu exited the Bengal city with a few carriages and a group of Orc guards. Irwin was there personally to send Xiao Yu over as well. Xiao Yu saw mischief in his eyes. He believed that Irwin had planned many ambushes for him.
Xiao Yu chose a normal speed for their convoy. He believed that the other party would come to find him sooner or later. There is no point in moving fast. This way he would only exhaust the stamina of the Orcs.
Siwen was the happiest of all. He was able to bring back his mother back to the Lion town. In addition, his brother-in-law was also waiting for him. She knew that her fate would not be so good if she married a noble like Irwin. He would fight with other wives while he would have a carefree life in the Lion town. Moreover, there was a man who would defend his freedom with his own blood and honor!
In the past, Siwen had been so fed up with Xiao Yu's behavior. But he discovered that Xiao Yu was not a bad man after this period of time.
Although Xiao Yu used dirty words, a little lustful but he had a kind and non-hypocritical character like Irwin.
Xiao Yu was not exaggerating either. He occasionally peeps at her bathing or changing clothes. He knew that if it was another family then a noble like Xiao Yu would have forced himself long ago.
Moreover, Xiao Yu possessed extraordinary abilities and also possessed charisma. He saved the orcs from slavery.
He would not mind when Xiao Yu peeked at him. Actually, he would secretly be happy.
Xiao Yu ate, drank, and observed the scenery along the way. They stopped in a town to stay for a few days.
The rest of the time he would teach the orcs using hand axes. Sometimes he would arrange for ten orcs to be thrown at once while at other times 100 or 500 orcs would train together. Axe whistles would reverberate everywhere as 500 orcs threw hand axes together.
Leah could not help but look at the training held by Xiao Yu.
He was clear that Xiao Yu was planning to use this method to deal with the soldiers. Even a third level warrior could not dodge such an attack. He knew that he would die if so many axes were dropped on him.
He discovered that on the surface Xiao Yu was acting like a lost child, a hooligan. He cursed, drank and peeked but there was a different temperament of a leader and a hero hidden within his bone marrow.
Xiao yu showed an extraordinary talent in the military whether it was when he defeated the death angel army or trained the orcs.
Moreover, this race of alien orcs viewed him as part of their family. He used a very simple method to win them over. But it was a method that very few people could do.
It's all about sincerity.
