What does Iron Butcher mean?

Powerful defense!

Iron Butcher soldiers wear iron helmets, heavy armor, and neck guard armor.

The horses are also clad in heavy armor horse armor.

They can effectively resist attacks from arrows, swords, and other cold weapons.

At the same time, both man and horse are wrapped in thick iron armor, making them like moving steel fortresses on the battlefield!

Powerful impact!

As cavalry, Iron Butcher can utilize the speed of Badan warhorses to generate immense impact during a charge.

With the weight inertia of soldiers' heavy armor and horse armor, they can easily charge into the enemy's infantry formation!

Coupled with the five-meter-long winged spear, it further enhances the lethality during the charge.

The most obvious aspect of Iron Butcher is its tactical value.

Soldiers and warhorses clad in heavy armor will impose a strong psychological and sense of helplessness on the enemy!

Lynn is aware of the power of Iron Butcher.

But he also knows the drawbacks of Iron Butcher.

An entire set of Iron Butcher armor plates amounts to at least around one thousand eight hundred pieces.

The weight of the armor worn by soldiers is as high as seventy pounds!

Plus, horse armor requires about one hundred fifty armor plates, with a weight equally as high as fifty pounds.

In other words.

The combined weight of the armor, horse armor, soldier, and warhorse totals at least fifteen hundred pounds!

With both man and horse clad in heavy armor, the overall load is enormous, severely restricting the running speed of the horses.

On the battlefield, it is difficult to conduct long-distance raids, pursuits, or quick relocations of positions.

Similarly, due to the excessive weight, inertia is also large, making turning extremely difficult for Iron Butcher.

Of course.

In terms of forming an Iron Butcher army, there are also stringent requirements.

A large amount of high-quality iron is needed for forging heavy armor, which is not a problem for Lynn.

After all, he has an open-pit iron mine under development.

The most crucial is the requirement for soldiers and warhorses!

Soldiers need to be tall and fit, with strong physical qualities.

Otherwise, just wearing seventy pounds of heavy armor would be enough to make them breathless.

The warhorses must also be of large stature and strong endurance.

Badan warhorses are an extremely good choice, but they are limited in number.

The transportation cycle back and forth from the Badan Empire is too long.

However.

Even so, Lynn still needs a force of Iron Butcher capable of charging through the enemy lines.

In this world, the strength of cavalry can decide the outcome of a war.

It can even determine whether a war can be won!

Once the style of the armor was finalized, after discussing some details about the Iron Butcher with Clive.

Lynn dismissed him.

Next, it was necessary to wait for a complete set of Iron Butcher heavy armor and horse armor to be produced as a sample.

If there are not too many problems, the blacksmith workshop can be organized to modify the forging plates, and the weaving workshop can change the weaving method.

This would allow for large-scale production.

Iron Butcher heavy armor is also forged from armor plates and made by weaving.

Aside from some changes in style, there is not much difference from composite armor.

In other words.

Starting the forging and weaving of the Iron Butcher heavy armor will not affect or reduce the production efficiency of armor.

Watching Clive fade into the distance.

Lynn's gaze swept over the broad reception hall.

The high-oil lamps lining the wall flickered and emitted light as they burned.

Looking out through the glazed glass of the reception hall, outside the castle.

There, it was already dark.

The night was deep.

Lynn rose from the lord's throne and walked toward the master bedroom.

Lying on the comfortable large bed, he looked at the ceiling above and gradually fell asleep.

...

Early the next morning.

Lynn habitually woke up early.

After eating the nutritious breakfast prepared by Kuisi, he left the castle with Red.

Passing through the red brick houses of the small town, they just arrived at the Lord's Square.

Lynn saw Flint standing in front of Jode and his carving apprentices.

Though he didn't move closer, he could still hear Flint, from a distance, arranging the construction work details of the breeding farm.

Lynn did not disturb Flint.

Since Flint had already assured him that the breeding farm would be completed in at most half a month.

All he needed to do was wait quietly.

As Flint led a group of workers away from the town, heading towards the pasture.

Lynn could see from a distance, a team of soldiers marching with uniform steps along the lime road between the fields, approaching the town.

At the forefront, it was Rose!

The return of this squad of soldiers to the town naturally drew the attention of some townsmen who were working nearby.

Their eyes were full of envy and anticipation.

Rose seemed to have seen Lynn, and he stepped forward, running towards Lynn with large strides.

Coming before Lynn, Rose spoke respectfully, "Master."

Lynn responded with a sound, "Take them to the weaving workshop to receive the armor, as well as the blacksmith workshop's weapons."

"I've already instructed the two workshop foremen."

Rose answered with understanding, "Yes, Master."

He bent slightly, took a few steps back, then turned away, leading the squad towards the handicraft workshop district.

The composite armor in the finished product storage area of the weaving workshop is now less than four hundred sets.

For now, it cannot meet Rose's need for nearly five hundred sets of soldiers' armor.
