Catching his eye on Blue, a teammate in the same tent, Kadir found him talking to the knight who was in charge of training the militia today.What an envy!
Because of his excellent performance, Blue was promoted to one of the vice presidents of the team, and he was also praised by the lord in person, which was enough for him to brag for a lifetime.This incident also deeply inspired Kadir.He also wants to be promoted, not only for more salary, but also to prove that he has that ability.Even someone as stupid as Blue could be appreciated by the lord, and there was no reason why he Kadir couldn't do it.For this reason, Kadir is more active in training, and will practice with Brudo for a while at the end of each day.The cultural training is also carefully listened to and studied, and the basic reading and writing commands are no problem.In addition, in the training class, Teresa will also preach the meaning of defending the homeland, so that everyone knows that they are doing something honorable, so that they will feel extremely proud from the bottom of their hearts.Influenced by this, Kadir believes that joining the militia is the right thing to do in his life and is ashamed of those who fled their homes.Bang bang bang!
Not far away, there was a continuous loud gunshot, and it was the people of the shooting team who practiced shooting.The firing team currently has only five muskets, but there are 10 of them.Therefore, there is a rotation at every time they practice, with five practicing muskets and the other five practicing bows and crossbows.Of course, the situation is much better than it was when there were only two muskets at the beginning.At first, people were startled by loud noises, but now they are almost used to hearing them.However, what excites Kadir the most is the muskets in the hands of the shooting team.He had seen the hunters shoot through iron plates with muskets.What a powerful weapon!
Like the previous explosions, it was unforgettable.He really wanted to hold a musket, pick it up and aim it at the enemy, and then shoot and kill the enemy, how mighty it was!
And with it in his hand, who would dare to underestimate him because of his short stature, and want to taste the power of lead bullet?
More importantly, the lord said that when the production of muskets increases in the future, a group of excellent people from the militia will be selected to form a musket team.This is one of the reasons why Kadir trains aggressively, studies hard, and wants to be selected."
Stand up, the lord is coming!"
Before the break was over, the one-eyed instructor suddenly walked over, clapped his hands and shouted at everyone.Hearing this, Kadir quickly picked up his spear and stood upright.Absolute obedience to orders is the duty of a soldier, and this is what has been said in cultural training.On the other side, the team of lizardmen and knights also stopped training, and the shooting team quickly assembled the whole team.Owen and his party walked past the right side of the group, and after a while they were in front of the group.Looking at the neat queue in front of him, Owen was quite impressed.Obviously, the team was crooked at the beginning, but now it has the rudiments of a powerful army.Clearing his throat, he used his magic and said loudly, "Everyone has trained hard. ”"It's not hard!"
The militia responded with a very loud, neat and imposing voice.It seems that everyone has a deep understanding of military training, and replying to the voice of the Supreme Commander should be like this.The lizardmen on the side were startled, they had only been in training for a short time, and they didn't understand why humans were roaring so loudly."
What is our purpose?"
Owen asked."
Defend your homeland!"
Although it was told in advance how to answer, everyone shouted it, believing that the words "defend the homeland" would be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people sooner or later."
Good."
Next, Owen is ready to give a motivational speech to boost everyone's confidence."
Winter will officially begin in two days, and the undead monsters of the north are about to move, they want to break through the northern walls, slaughter our relatives, and destroy our homes.For many years, they have not given up, and every winter is the time for them to invade the south. ”As soon as it was mentioned, many people suddenly realized that winter was coming.It's hard training every day, and few people care what time it is."
In the past, we relied on the power of the Templars to survive the winter.This winter was an exception, as Duke Eddie had detained the Templars at the Eastrising Fortress in an attempt to force us to evacuate the Frontier.I'm bringing everyone together to train for this extraordinary time. ”With that, Owen suddenly opened his arms."
Look!
We've filled the gaps in the walls, we have thunder-like explosives, muskets that pierce through armor, and even the full help of the lizardmen.Answer me, do you have the confidence to hold the northern wall and keep the undead out of it?
”"Yes!"
Another resounding answer.Yes, with these powerful weapons and the help of the lizardmen, Frontier Town didn't even need the support of the Templars, and no one doubted the lord's words.The atmosphere was very high, and Owen continued to mobilize everyone's emotions."
Our homes are to be defended by our own strength, right?""
Yes!""
As the lord of the border town, I will also advance and retreat with everyone, are you willing to follow me?""
Yes!""
Very good, everyone will get two pieces of jerky tonight."
As soon as they heard that there were so many pieces of dried meat, many people swallowed a mouthful of saliva, which seemed to be quite coveted for the salty aroma of jerky."
Enjoy the delicious taste of jerky, and remember that you can only continue to eat meat in the future if you protect the border town."
Finally, the crowd raised their weapons and shouted, "Willing to fight for your lord!"
”Okay, the effect of mobilization has been achieved.Then, Owen left the training ground under the gaze of everyone.After leaving, everyone continued to train, and everything was going on in an orderly manner.However, after the mobilization, many people are more serious in training.…… As soon as he returned to the castle, Owen found Clive waiting for him in the hall."
Oh?
Clive, is there anything you want to report?
”"Yes, Lord Marquis."
Clive handed over a copy of the paper, in addition to a small packet of cement powder and a small dose of gunpowder powder."
According to the information provided by the townspeople, we have caught another spy and have been hanged.This was from the spy, and the two packets were seized from him. ”"Oh?
It's nothing to be able to get cement, but I didn't expect to be able to get even black powder. ”When the cement factory was temporarily closed, it was unguarded, and Owen guessed the scraps of raw material he had gotten there.Gunpowder was stored in warehouses and guarded around the clock, and it is unlikely that the spy obtained it from there."
Lord Marquis, this gunpowder was bought with money from the people in the shooting team, do you need us to deal with it?"
As it turned out, the shooting team needed to practice shooting with gunpowder, and it was possible to get gunpowder from there for some money."
No, I'll inform Viscount Jarvis later, and let him take care of this.""
Yes.""
You can step down, and don't forget to give rewards to whistleblowers.""
I won't forget, Lord Marquis."
After Clive left, Owen sat casually in his seat and looked at the document.Sure enough, Duke Eddie sent someone over to spy on the information, and it is estimated that Owen's delay in evacuating has already made the other party a little flustered.Sooner or later, the Templars would know that Duke Eddie was lying, and at that point, all his calculations would have been in vain.There was a letter in the document, and Owen opened it to see that the spy had recorded everything in the border town, including the lizardman.
