Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World

itable mount for the Titan Cattle warriors.
Earth-traversing cattles were not related by blood to the Titan Cattle tribe, but rather, it was the stoneskin cattle.
The problem was that they killed stoneskin cattles and absorbed the magic beast soul from them.
Herding blood-related magic beasts for such a task was an exceptional case within the Beastfolk Prairie.

In the Beastfolk Prairie, the beastfolk generally used their own blood-related magic beasts as mounts.
There were, however, a few tribes like the Titan Cattle tribe who used other magic beasts like earth-traversing cattle as mounts instead of blood-related magic beasts.

Zhao Hai watched the charge of the Titan Cattle warriors.
He had to admit that Titan Cattle warriors were truly a force to be reckoned with.
Hands down, they did a great deal more damage than the heavy cavalry recorded from Earth.
Imagine an army of massive warriors wielding hundred kilogram heavy war axes as they charged forth… this is what that concept was like.

Chinese martial arts community had a saying.
A genuine weapon is swung, and one tael[4]equals one jin[5].
That is to say, a heavy weapon weighing one jin would increase the strength of the wielder and become ten jin of strength when it’s being swung.
In ancient China, however, charging cavalry used swords that weren’t for swinging, but were instead flat and thin.
They instead borrowed the force of the horse while atop the saddle to kill the enemy.
Along with this, warriors in the prairies of China would use sickles[6], and the charge of a sickle-wielding cavalry was very lethal[7].

The Titan Cattle tribe’s charge, however, didn’t just involve them swinging their weapons.
These were a hundred kilogram heavy weapons.
Along with the power given off from the cattle they rode, just how much force could that axe possess? Zhao Hai really couldn’t come up with an estimate.

Zhao Hai was also a military otaku, so he knew of these things.
The reason why ancient cavalry didn’t swing their weapons was because it would dislocate their shoulders.
As such, when an ancient cavalry charge began, they used a long weapon.
This kind of weapon couldn’t be held with one hand, but they could tuck the shaft beneath their arms.

During this time, common cavalrymen used spears.
Once they pierced the enemy they would have to pull the spear back in order to make it useable again.
Otherwise, the spear would directly break.

This was how ancient Chinese riders did their assault.
While this method of assault was similar for foreign knights, those knights wore heavy armor and held a straight lance.
While they changed, they must pay attention to the wooden lance in their hands.
So long as they hit the enemy, the lance would snap.
If the cavalry had good riding skills, then the lance would only have snapped at the tip and would still be useable.

A Chinese spear considered his problem, however, and the shaft of the spear wasn’t made entirely of wood.
Instead, the spear would be wrapped around tightly with strips and resemble modern times steel wire ropes.
It wouldn’t just be tough, but incomparably hard.
When used to attack an enemy, the cavalryman could just use a bit of force to shrug the enemy off the shaft.
Like this, after impact, the horse could keep its balance and avoid having to back up and die.
The spear’s shaft in this case wouldn’t break[8].

It could be said that Earth’s ancient cavalry didn’t use the power of a human, but a horse’s strength.
This time, the assault of the Titan Cattle cavalry used not only the earth-traversing cattle, but also their own strength, increasing their might greatly.

Naturally, the humans on the Ark Continent would have better bodies than those on Earth.
Of course, the plants in the Ark Continent had an abundance of magic elements.
Along with the natural qi in the air, it was a lot better compared with Earth.
Since this was the case, the people living on the Ark Continent would have better physiques than those on Earth.
They could achieve matters that the humans on Earth couldn’t.

The assault of the Titan Cattle tribe cavalry could be called, if Zhao Hai were to put it to words, beautiful.
A brutal beauty, the beauty of power, the beauty of slaughter.

With the assault of the three hundred earth-traversing cattle cavalry, the fight had basically finished.
While the charge didn’t exterminate the Jackal tribe completely, they did take down four hundred of them.
The remaining Jackal tribe members were killed by the undead Zhao Hai had summoned.

After their assault, the three hundred earth-traversing cattle cavalry returned to camp, eyeing the corpses of those Jackal tribe members outside

It wasn’t that they hadn’t seen corpses before, just that these warriors protecting Wales hadn’t been in many battles.
They sighed as they wouldn’t have expected that the two thousand large Jackal tribe cavalry would be unexpectedly destroyed just like that.

At this moment, a large amount of black smog enveloped the battlefield.
When the black smog dispersed, the battlefield was cleaned up.
The only thing that remained were the trampled grass of the earlier fight.
No one would be able to believe that there had just been a battlefield here.

At this time, Zhao Hai’s caravan slowly moved toward the camp.
Once their carriage was twenty meters, Zhao Hai and Laura walked out and slowly approached Wales.
The earth-traversing cattle wanted to block their paths, but Wales shouted for them to stand down.

Zhao Hai led Laura and the other two women until they were two meters from Wales.
They then made their greetings with straight chest towards Wales.
“Brother Wales, hello.
Zhao Hai offers the most sincere blessing to you.”

Wales also straightened his chest and grasped Zhao Hai, laughing as he said, “Brother Zhao Hai, you are truly a great magician.
You easily and unexpectedly defeated the Jackal tribe with your magic.
Starting today, you are a close friend of this Wales.”

Zhao Hai wasn’t able to adapt easily to Wales’ enthusiasm.
After he broke free of Wales’ hug with great difficulty, he panted for air as he said, “Brother Wales, you shouldn’t hug me like that.
I almost died by your hands.”

When Zhao Hai said those words, the beastfolk around them began to laugh.
They started to like Zhao Hai because he spoke sincerely, not like those other hypocritical humans.

Laura and the other two also smiled.
They were currently facing the beastfolk.
When compared to humans where they needed to act reserved, it was more comfortable around the beastfolk.
This wasn’t something they’d have imagined happening.

Footnotes:

[1]Please read the Announcement Post [2] 威尔斯 – Wēi ěr sī.  [3]土行牛 – Tǔ xíng niú. [4]One tael(两) is about 50 grams… [5]Since one jin equals half a kilogram, it’ll be 50 grams (tael) to 500 grams (jin).
So a 1 to 10 conversion.
Hey, the raws actually matched these measurements! [6]Common farming implement in old China… methinks.
In Europe it would be pitchforks? Dunno why I’m commenting. [7]Take everything this paragraph said with a grain of salt.
I have no idea and just made it so that it sounds legit. [8]No idea if this is true in the least.
No idea if the paragraph is correct.
And lastly, no idea why author went into a history lesson.
