A burst of rapid banging sounded in the courtyard of the Ironwood City Official School, and a group of teenage students quickly gathered together with the sound of banging.
"Hurry, hurry, let's gather at the martial arts arena."
This group of teenagers were running hurriedly down the aisle with smaller-sized weapons.
"Little Tilly, hurry up."
"Wait for me, ugh"
Little Tilly carried his trumpet knight sword and hurriedly followed the large troops to the martial arts field.
"Quickly line up, line up quickly."
By the time Little Tilly arrived at the martial arts arena, several instructors were already arranging the team in the martial arts arena.
"Hurry up. If you delay any longer, you will be late."
A teacher spotted little Tilly who was left behind, pointed at him and started shouting.
Little Tilly shivered when he was shouted at, then quickened his pace and hurriedly joined the team.
"Huh, luckily I'm not late."
Little Tilly in the team was extremely lucky. He never wanted to try again after the experience of being punished for being late last time.
As if it was confirmed that everyone was present, a young teacher walked onto the stage.
"Who will give me a peaceful and contented life?"
"Lord Richard!"
"Who will give me enough food and clothing?"
"Lord Richard!"
"You must remember that you can practice martial arts here today only because of Master Richard's gift."
"I will swear allegiance to Lord Richard to the death! I will swear allegiance to Lord Richard to the death!"
This group of half-grown teenagers roared with great fanaticism,
Even people like Little Tilly, who often met Richard, also shouted, and he was even more enthusiastic than others. Anyway, he has admired Richard as his cousin since he was a child. All this may be too much for Little Tilly.
Nothing more than normal.
…
"good"
The teacher on the stage made a gesture, and the excited teenagers below slowly calmed down.
"Teachers in each class will lead their students to start today's warm-up exercise."
"One two one, one two one"
At this point, Richard, who was silently watching everything proceed in an orderly manner, nodded with satisfaction.
These are the fixed daily routines of Ironwood City official school. In addition to practicing martial arts and literacy every day, they also need to let them understand who their allegiance will be in the future.
You can't spend a lot of money and effort to cultivate talents that you can't use for yourself in the end.
This group of students enjoy a systematic education at Ironwood City Official School that is difficult for children of the common class in this era. Naturally, they should also devote their loyalty to those who provide education.
Under Richard's instruction, in addition to cultural courses and military physical fitness courses in the Ironwood City Official School, breathing techniques were also one of the courses offered by the official school. The quality of the official school education even exceeded the family education level of many small nobles.
Not only the civilian families in the territory are flocking to it, but the children of the Hunter family are now also required to join the official school for training.
But only in the remote Ironwood City and a bold lord named Richard could he dare to do this.
After all, controlling the spread of breathing techniques is an unspoken rule of the aristocratic class, and not everyone dares to challenge this unspoken rule.
The benefits of this are also obvious. After six years of training in the official school, these children can basically have good strength, and the outstanding ones can even reach the quasi-knight level. They also have certain culture and management theory. Most of them
He will soon be able to serve as junior military officers and local civil servants.
Now is the period of expansion of the Hunter family's power. This group of graduates who are loyal enough and have talents that exceed most people of this era have become the backbone of the Hunter family's expansion.
…
Richard, who was observing the training of the newly admitted boys in the martial arts field, was interrupted from his thoughts by an emergency report.
"Sir, urgent information."
A member of Yusidu came to Richard to report.
Richard no longer lingered in the official school. He took the information sent to him and walked to the meeting hall while reading it.
The people from Yusidu went directly to the official school to find Richard because something major had happened, otherwise ordinary things would have been waiting for Richard to go back to deal with, and they did not dare to disturb Richard at will.
When Richard came to the meeting hall, he found that his intelligence chief Colen and the chief manager Egg were already waiting in the meeting hall.
"Sir." When the two of them noticed Richard coming in, they immediately stood up and saluted.
"sit."
Richard came to the main seat and asked the two of them to sit down.
"Where is my father?"
"People have been sent to inform." Iger responded.
"Well, wait a moment, you can take a look at the information this time."
Taking advantage of the waiting time, Richard also sat in his seat and frantically digested the large amount of information he suddenly received.
The first is the recognition of Ron's inheritance. After Richard's tricks, and a little luck and Lin Xuan's help, Will's large territory is finally no longer in danger of being deprived of by the kingdom, which is something to be happy about.
things
But the second piece of news that came immediately made Richard raise his eyebrows.
There are a large number of ogres coming from the western wilderness to the north. Generally speaking, the Hunter Territory is remote and will not become the main target of the ogre tribe. However, the Hunter Territory is not located in the hinterland and may be harassed by partial armies.
Sex, so it was also classified into the sixth war zone.
The sixth war zone includes two viscounties and three baronies, including the Hunter Territory. On paper, it is the weakest war zone. Of course, this weakest does not take into account the monster-like strength of the Hunter Territory.
Now the position of commander of the war zone seems quite interesting to Richard.
Richard quickly realized that this was an opportunity for reasonable expansion. Piaoxue City came up with a chicken-feather arrow and wanted to use this crisis to expand his influence, but he, Richard, was going to take the arrow and use it as an imperial edict.
The only thing to consider now is how to get this leadership position.
"Report, Mr. Sauter is watching the circus, and he said that if Mr. Richard decides, just let him know."
After waiting for a while, I only waited for a message from the soldier.
Richard couldn't help but hold his forehead,
Forget it, given my father's temperament, he would just sit in a daze when he came.
The stronger the Hunter family is in Richard's hands, the more Viscount Sauter is able to play with peace of mind, and now he doesn't even act like he's the boss anymore.
"cough"
After coughing to cover up his embarrassment, Richard signaled the two of them not to wait any longer and that they could start.
"Sir, the Lanster family's military discussion was not kept secret this time, and the information must be correct."
"Um"
"Immediately send someone to bring some gifts, contact the fourth young master of the Lanster family, and ask him to help win the position of commander of the Sixth War Zone."
"Yes, Master."
"Uncle Egg."
"Master"
"Make sure that Ironwood City has sufficient supplies. No matter whether the ogre tribe attacks or not, we must prepare for the worst."
"Yes, Master."
Making the most adequate preparations before anything happens is also one of Richard's styles.
Soon, the two of them clarified their tasks and began to prepare.
After making detailed arrangements for the work, Richard personally came to the Flying Bear Army's camp to inspect.
Although this army has been in existence for less than a month, it has benefited from the excellent soldiers - all selected from the peasants and soldiers who have experienced the war with the Will family, as well as a large number of qualified grassroots officers.
The maintenance is quite good, and it can be used to fight if it is pulled out.
Richard inspected the camp and made some assessments of the Flying Bear Army's combat effectiveness.
Richard had a strong feeling in his heart that the war would definitely spread to his territory.
The snow pirates were raging before, and I had received the task of exterminating the snow pirates in the system. This time, the elimination of the ogre tribe did not seem to be without purpose.
Although it is just speculation now, this feeling is getting stronger and stronger, and the Flying Bear Army may face its first difficult battle.
