"The supply of soldiers is so good that my subordinates dare not take credit for it."
The one who answered the conversation on the side was Eliart, the commander of the Sun Legion who had just taken office. He looked to be only in his twenties. This is one of the characteristics of the Hunter family, or one of the characteristics of a newly rising force.
Even the backbone is young,
Eliot was also one of the early students of Ironwood City Academy. He graduated from Ironwood City Academy and worked for the Hunter family before the Hunter family rose to prominence.
From the captain of the Old City Guards to the leader of the first flag regiment of the Flying Bear Army, they were originally among the most talented people in the early Ironwood City Academy. With Richard's focused training and resource allocation, they successfully entered the knight level.
This time, the Blazing Sun Legion was newly formed, and Richard transferred him back from the Flying Bear Army to serve as the legion commander.
It can be said that the Hunter family has risen too fast. Even with Richard's early preparations for several years to speed up the training of talents and establish a development system, the starting point of the Hunter family is still too low, and the steps have been a bit big. So far, the Hunter family has also
It is just that there is no shortage of basic officers at the quasi-knight level, but senior officers such as the legion commander can only be appointed by knights, and they cannot meet the standards of the kingdom's elite legions. Even the Lanster family's Jingbei Army and Legion
Officers of this rank are also held by high knights.
But now the knights are all okay. With more resources, the approved knights with the best talents can always emerge. However, the level of great knights cannot be cultivated by oneself in a short time. Now, under Richard, in addition to heroes
The soldiers of the invincible system, as well as the knights without knights who have taken refuge from outside, have already trained nearly double digits of knights, but the most talented among them have just reached the intermediate level of knights. It will take at least a long time before great knights start to emerge.
It takes several years of accumulation,
Now, compared with the elite legions of the Kingdom, the advantages of the Flying Bear, Tiger and Leopard legions, including the Lieyang Legion, still lie in the basic soldiers and officers, who have stronger fighting will and discipline. However, they still suffer some disadvantages in terms of the number of strong men.
Yes, at least the Hunter family's army cannot yet be made up of knights, and it can barely do half of it.
As for Viscount Sauter and his two uncles, Richard knew in his heart that it would be okay to let them command hundreds of thousands of troops to charge, but if they were really entrusted with important tasks, commanding an army of tens of thousands would be an absolute mess.
"No matter how good the recruits are, you still have a share of the credit. I heard that you haven't stepped out of the military camp since the first batch of new recruits arrived."
"This is what subordinates should do."
Richard encouraged Eliot a few more words, and then they went on a patrol together and agreed.
The main body of the newly built Sun Legion is still stationed outside the city. After all, Ironwood City is only a city of tens of thousands of people. It would still seem a bit crowded to put an entire legion directly in the city, and it is not war time.
After the army was recruited, it had already completed the change of equipment. Standard weapons and cloth armors had been distributed to the soldiers. Training began on the assembly and use of sidecars and the operation of powerful crossbows for hunting bears.
Now that the Hunter family has a bigger fortune, they are much richer than before. In the past, when the army expanded, people often waited for equipment. Now, when the army expands, the equipment can be obtained immediately.
Although the soldiers have only been training for a few days, they already look decent. Even after a few more exercises, they should be ready to fight.
In this era, recruit training originally took at least three or four months. To really develop sufficient combat effectiveness, the training cycle was more than half a year. However, this cycle is to train a farmer who has just put down his hoe into a professional soldier who can kill people with a knife.
degree.
The recruits of the Legion of the Sun basically come from the old territory of the Hunter family and territories such as Weirland, Banderland, and Naderland that were absorbed into the Hunter family's war preparation system early on.
All the soldiers were led by the peace officers during their leisure time and had received relatively professional military training. Naturally, they were not starting from scratch. They were quite familiar with the basic formations and the use of weapons.
The grassroots officers are also experienced veterans from other armies and graduates of Ironwood City Academy. Their quality is above the standard. In addition, Eliot is indeed a capable legion commander, so he can generalize the Sun Legion in less than a week.
Come up with a look.
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
The training of soldiers is very serious, and they are highly motivated. There is no shortage of soldiers in the Hunter family, and there is no one who is unwilling to be forced to join. They all voluntarily join the army and have to pick and choose, and some places are forced to recruit.
Compared with the soldiers, the initiative is naturally stronger.
Although I can still trust Eliot, as I said before, we must first ensure the supervision is in place and don’t test human nature.
As usual, Richard checked the food situation of the soldiers, asked the soldiers individually about the amount of money and food they received every month, and then randomly took a few soldiers' weapons to check the quality. Finally, he completed the inspection of the Lieyang Legion, and turned back to Ironwood Fort.
Rest. The price of using the God-killing Ring once is too high. Richard estimates that it will take at least half a month for him to recover. Moreover, if he uses it frequently, it may cause some irreversible damage to the body. He must use it with caution in the future. It is best not to use it again.
There is an opportunity to use it.
…
royal capital
In a side hall of the palace, the waiters had already exited the room. Only Ren and the leader of the black prison, Harris, were left in the hall. Harris, who originally had a rich and kind temperament, was not very calm in front of Ren, and was always cautious.
appearance.
"Have you still not found out where the red dragon that appeared under my son-in-law came from?"
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, the Black Prison has used all its power, and I still don't know where Master Richard's red dragon came from."
"Then what happened to the Sky Knights who fought against each other in Ironwood City?"
"Except for Lord Richard, we can only confirm that one of them is Mi Xiu, the contemporary pope of the Rising Sun Sect. There is no relevant information about the other people."
Ren asked calmly, but Harris's heart grew colder as he answered. After things kept popping up from Richard's side, Harris's mood became worse and worse. The Red Dragon and the strong men on Richard's side were all
It was just like something that appeared out of nowhere, and there was no trace of it, which made Harris tremble when he spoke in front of Renne.
"You can't find this, you can't find that, so why am I raising a black jail?"
"Your Majesty, forgive me."
"Bang! Keep checking!"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The strength that Richard has shown now is no longer something that Ren can easily touch. At most, he will send someone to inquire, and the tone will not be too serious. Richard will be over with a little perfunctory.
Of course, Renn has no intention of tampering with Richard. When it comes to means, Renn is definitely a qualified old bastard. He will not act casually when he should do something, but is driven by the natural desire for control of the superior.
He just wants to explore the secrets of Hunter Territory...
"Your Majesty, there is another piece of information."
"explain!"
Lane's tone was not very good. Although he would continue to rely on Harris to manage Black Prison, it was obvious that Lane was somewhat dissatisfied with the performance of Harris and Black Prison this time.
"Some evidence has been found regarding Lord Richard's assassination."
"Um?"
"There is definite evidence that this matter is related to the new head of the Lanster family, James, and they are suspected of colluding with the Rising Sun Cult."
After hearing this, Renn did not show the appropriate anger. A high-ranking noble colluded with the kingdom's mortal enemy to assassinate another high-ranking noble, and he was still a meritorious minister. This should have been a heinous crime, but Renn was very calm, pointing his finger.
He kept lighting the table, seeming to be thinking about something.
"How many people know about this?"
"This is a single line of information. The key figures are still in the dungeon of Black Hell. I am personally responsible for the interrogation. I guarantee that no one else will know."
"Go back and deal with the people. Don't let the third person know about this."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Harris is only responsible for executing Lane's orders and never asks why. This is one of the key qualities that has enabled him to rule Black Prison for a long time.
"Red Dragon, Dragon Knight, Sky Knight, Rising Sun Cult, and Orcs..."
When Harris left, Lane sat alone in a chair, closed his eyes and meditated, muttering silently...
