Suldak and Karl hugged each other, with a very limited smile on their faces.
"Hey, Dark! For the sake of me going all the way to help you deliver these men, you should at least be happy!" Karl said, patting Surdak on the shoulder.
The two of them walked towards Wall Village arm in arm. When Karl saw the townhouses in the village, he said with emotion: The last time he came here, these townhouses had just built a frame. Unexpectedly,
Before winter, all the villagers had already moved in. The construction speed of Wall Village was really surprising.
The roads in the village are also paved with flat cement roads, extending all the way to the village square.
Karl led this group of reserve knights from the guard battalion to Wall Village. Just as Andrew and Gulitm drove a group of horses to the village square, they assigned war horses to the veterans who had recently joined the cavalry battalion. In addition to the war horses,
The veterans had just taken over the more than seventy camels. They were not familiar with these horses at all, and were not even as familiar as the coachmen in Wall Village.
These war horses were not so obedient. Suddenly, the village square was in chaos, and war horses kept standing up in the square.
Seeing these scenes in front of them, the young reserve knights on horseback faced this group of country bumpkins, and their green faces showed a sense of superiority.
"Are these the new troops you recruited for the cavalry battalion?" Karl happened to be standing on the edge of the village square, looking at these ragged villagers in surprise, as well as a group of war horses in front of him that refused to be easily tamed...a miscellaneous horse.
, all kinds of things, and seventy or eighty tall dromedary camels, Karl didn’t know what to say for a while.
Surdak asked with a proud look on his face: "How is it?"
Suldak could be considered a self-made man. He could achieve this in just one and a half years. Karl thought that he would definitely not be able to do it.
Karl said: "It looks okay, well, speaking of it...I have no right to parity, I can only look forward to your performance in battle."
Surdak smiled and said: "That means you don't think much of them either!"
Karl felt that he should speak more tactfully, so he said: "Well, I admit that we have differences in this aspect. On this point of view, Captain Sauron and I, Viscount Emmett, have completely the same views. In the academy,
Although these are young, they have received professional riding training, as well as technical and tactical training. What they lack is just training on the battlefield. In time..."
Before Karl could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Suldak: "In time, these reserve knights will become the knights of the guard camp in Helensa City..."
"Well, you have to remember that you are also one of us." Karl put his arm around Suldak's shoulders and whispered.
"I remember it all the time!" Suldak took Karl in the direction of the children's home. Selina and a group of children from the children's home happened to be sitting at the gate watching the fun. He said to Karl: "What are you doing?
It's time to leave, I don't have time to entertain you!"
Karl knew that Surdak was joking and was not angry. He just glared at Surdak and complained: "Hey, you guy, do you want me to sleep in Oak Ridge at night in such a cold weather? At least I should be given
I’ll arrange a nice dinner and a warm room, and I’ll get up early and leave early tomorrow!”
Seeing Suldak and Karl approaching from a distance, Selina quickly called a group of children into the yard. This believer of the dark goddess still did not want to appear in front of outsiders.
Suldak smiled at Karl and said: "We have to leave early tomorrow, so we can't see you off..."
"So urgent?" Karl asked in surprise.
Surdak coughed and then lowered his voice and said: "The mercenary group will start burning money today..."
"Okay, be sure to pay attention to safety, and don't be too aggressive in the desert!" Karl could only express his worry, and then he immediately thought of something, then looked at Suldak with wide eyes, and lowered his voice.
The voice asked: "You don't want to take these reserve knights into the desert, do you?"
Suldak nodded without hesitation and admitted: "That's what I thought."
Karl trembled all over, he immediately grabbed Suldak and persuaded him in a lower voice: "I think you should listen to me on this, it is better to let them stay in Wall Village. Take them out, you still
Don’t you think you’re troublesome enough?”
"If you don't go out and experience it, you will never have the chance to grow."
Surdak immediately retorted.
The two of them walked and chatted all the way, and soon arrived outside the courtyard of the police station.
…
The group of young reserve knights led their horses and followed them around the village square and all the way to the police station upstream of the village.
The security station is already full of militiamen from the militia camp. Several large felt houses have been built outside the security station. There are also many villagers coming in and out of the security station. These villagers are also wearing rags. They are in Sami
Under the leadership of La, they were gathering at a simple temporary archery range.
There are fifteen scarecrows on one side of the archery range, and on the other side there is a row of tables with a row of alloy bows on them.
The villagers from these militia camps were summoned by Surdak just to practice basic bow skills at the security station. If their archery postures are incorrect, Samira needs to correct them in time, otherwise once they develop a habit, those smelly people will
The problem is difficult to correct. Not only is the accuracy on the battlefield insufficient, but it is also easy to injure one's arm when forcibly pulling the bow.
Samira felt the most deeply about this point.
These villagers were poorly dressed, and each of them looked very thin. Their clothing to keep out the cold was also very thin. Some of them even walked with a limp. The young reserve knights were holding their horses and standing aside to watch, intending to watch.
A joke about these militiamen.
A group of militiamen were following Samira, listening carefully to Samira's introduction to the performance of alloy bows. They usually did not have access to such sophisticated longbows. The most common ones used by these villagers were ordinary forest hunting bows.
The bow is made of old oak wood. Although it is not as good as the alloy bow, it is enough for hunting gray rock iguanas in the wild.
In fact, the villagers in the deserted land all have very good bow skills, which is also a means of survival for them in the deserted land.
According to Surdak's arrangement, Samira is not only responsible for staying in Wall Village this time, but is also responsible for training a group of qualified militia battalion archers. Surdak is preparing to vigorously develop a group of archers in various natural villages in the deserted land.
, Surdak needed them to be able to use bows and arrows to resist the invading bandits by taking advantage of the complex terrain in the village, so this time he brought back a batch of alloy bows from the Munitions Logistics Department of Helensa City Hall.
The half-elf archer Samira masters the 'Arching Technique' passed down from the Silver Moon Elves. This type of physical art has high requirements on body coordination. After the villagers learned the arching technique from Samira,
Try to shoot a round of arrows with an alloy bow, and very few arrows will land on the target.
For a moment, the poor performance of the militiamen caused the group of reserve knights who were watching the excitement to burst into laughter.
Young Samira didn't understand what the problem was. She had always shot arrows like this. She picked up an alloy bow on the table and didn't even need to aim. She just pulled the bowstring at will and shot a row of arrows.
, the fine steel arrows were crowded on the bullseye like a bunch of arrows, which not only made the militiamen learning archery on the side dumbfounded, but also the reserve knights standing on the outside watching the fun stopped laughing.
On the battlefield, there is probably no one who is not afraid of being named by such a marksman...
Weiru was leaning against the wall of the police station and basking in the sun. He was covered in bandages and looked like a seriously injured soldier. He saw the militiamen being laughed at by a group of young knights. Urgency, embarrassment and distress appeared on the faces of the militiamen.
, everyone started to become restless.
At this time, Weilu slowly walked to the shooting range and said to Samira: "The elf arching technique is not suitable for everyone. Only people with extremely high talents and strong coordination abilities can practice this arching technique.
You have the blood of elves, so naturally you won't feel this... your guidance should be based on the individual."
As he spoke, Veru pulled over a militiaman and asked him to stand in front of the table. He held an alloy bow in the villager's customary way, opened the bow and shot an arrow in one go. The steel arrow was steadily placed thirty meters away.
Bullseye…
For a while, the ridicule outside the court fell silent.
"Their archery skills are pretty good, but some of their postures are incorrect." Weiru didn't speak very fast, and everyone around him could hear him clearly. He patted the villager's chest and abdomen with his hand continuously, adjusting his standing posture.
And said to Samira: "Stretching the bow so frequently can easily injure your back muscles, so you can straighten your body when standing..."
Samira knew that Viru was the Hawkeye invited back by Surdak, but she didn't expect that his understanding of archery was so much higher than hers...
There are one hundred and fifty people in the militia camp. With the continuous invasion of desert bandits, the militiamen in each village are still continuing to reduce their numbers. Surdak has paid out a large amount of pension during this time. However, this pension,
This directly led to unprecedented enthusiasm among villagers to join the militia camp.
People in the desolate land are not afraid of death. The living conditions here are quite difficult. They care more about the pension than death.
…
Karl and Suldak stood in front of the young reserve knights.
Surdak had a gloomy face and said to these young graduates: "You have received four years of training at the Knight Academy. Now is the time to test what you have learned in the past four years. Now your first task is to prepare for yourself."
Build a tent that can withstand the severe cold. Now this is Wall Village. It has a flat site, a ready-made water source, and some conveniences that are not available in the wild. But if you go to the wild, the living conditions may be even harsher than here."
