Chapter 16 Strong and Strong

In the blink of an eye, another six years have passed. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

At this time, Zhou Ming was already 12 years old, but his deliberately exercised physique and rapidly rising height made him look stronger than an 18-year-old adult.

The land he leased Baron Connor had increased from 10 acres six years earlier to 20 acres.

Of these, 6 acres are still used for wheat cultivation, and the other 14 acres are used for peas and pasture.

With the continuous proficiency of farming technology and the continuous emergence of the effect of the strongest manure, the average total yield of the 6 acres of wheat land planted by Zhou Ming has increased from 70 taren six years ago to 100 talons.

In the wheat fields of other farmers, although they have also learned to apply manure, they have also increased their yields to a certain extent, but the yields have only increased slightly, far less exaggerated than Zhou Ming's wheat fields.

The farmers in the town talked a lot and asked him for tips, but after looking at it, he still felt that Zhou Ming's farming method was too cumbersome, and it was not practical to promote it to hundreds of acres of land, so he gave him a nickname - "Lucky Little Ryan".

As for the other 14 acres of pastureland, Zhou Ming used 20 Taren of grain to exchange four lambs from the ranch steward Leodorna, and adopted a heifer at the annual rent of 2 Taren grains.

In less than three years, these cattle and sheep have grown gratifyingly, and they have given birth to milk, and in less than four years, the number has doubled, and brought a lot of meat and dairy products to the little brothers and sisters.

There are also hundreds of chicks raised by Zhou Ming in order to prevent and control pests and diseases in wheat fields and pastures, and dozens of eggs are laid every day, which not only improves the family conditions of the little brother and sister, but also develops much faster than their peers.

In addition, Zhou Ming is young, not yet 16 years old, not yet at the age of obliging to do weekly work for the lord, the work in the wheat field is not heavy, and his sister Alice can also help herd chickens, cattle and sheep, Zhou Ming has a lot of time every day to exercise his body.

and in the process of training, he is learning from the object - the knight.

The knight is the ultimate representative of the armed forces of this era, the solid cornerstone of the ruling class to maintain its rule, and becoming a noble and powerful knight is the dream of almost all the low-level people in this era.

Zhou Ming naturally went to find out how a humanoid tank like a knight was trained.

Taking advantage of several opportunities to give gifts to Madame Madeleine, Zhou Ming, who entered the castle, secretly observed the knights who were training in the training ground to see what was different between them.

Slash, slash, stab, slam, dash, shoot, throw, bid...... That's it.

Zhou Ming felt that the fighting skills of these knights were basically not much different from the fighting methods in a game called "Mount and Blade" that he had played.

It's nothing more than a faster shot, a more accurate bow and arrow, and a greater impact...... Practice makes perfect.

However, looking at those knights, a sword slashed the thick log with the mouth of the bowl, a shield smashed the thick wooden plank with the big door panel, put on a heavy armor, rode on horseback, and at high speed, cut off the heads of the scarecrows on the side of the road like chopping melons and vegetables, secretly staggered, this kind of terrifying force, in the field battlefield, hacking to death a hundred farmers with wooden sticks, it is estimated that it will not take more than an hour, right?

"You must not go head-to-head with these knights with invincible defense and strong attack power, unless you use a crossbow or longbow with strong armor-piercing ability, and a hundred people to shoot together, it is possible to defeat such a knight, or, in the era of hot weapons, bombard them with arquebuses and cannons......"

Zhou Ming flashed a lot of plans in his mind in an instant.

But...... For him, these plans are not realistic at present, and it is needless to say that black powder, saltpeter and sulfur are two raw materials that are difficult to collect in large quantities. The intricate reed mechanism inside the bow and crossbow also requires highly skilled craftsmen to make them.

As for the longbow, it is required to be at least 1.8 meters tall, to pull the bowstring, which requires nearly 40 kilograms of tension, and to ensure an accurate head from 1,200 meters away......

"I'll start with the most basic training, with a strong body, even if I can't beat these knights, it should be more than enough for self-protection. ”

So, since the age of eight, Zhou Ming drank a glass of cow and goat's milk, dried up a few eggs, and nibbled on a large barley bread smeared with cream every morning, and then began to do 500 push-ups, 100 frog jumps, and 2,000 meters of long-distance running. In the evening, he tied a few sandbags to his body, and in the backyard, he held a sharpened birch pole and aimed at the mouth, eyes, neck, chest, and heart of the humanoid wooden target, rushed forward in three steps, and then stabbed it violently, and so on 1,500 times.

"Brother, why are you doing these things? Can't you come and play with me for a while?" On this day, my sister Alice, who was sitting at the gate of the courtyard boredly, pouted and said to Zhou Ming, who was training.

My brother knows to do these boring things all day long, and he doesn't know how to play with me for a while.

Hearing the voice, after Zhou Ming finished the last long spear sprint training, he put the birch pole aside, wiped his face with a linen, and then sat next to Alice and looked at her with gentle eyes for a while.

My only sister, although she is only 10 years old, is already like a beauty, maybe it is the genes inherited by her parents, or maybe the nutrition has kept up in recent years, the crystal clear milky white skin, a long golden wavy hair, and a delicate little nose like a jade shoot, with a little delicate cherry mouth and a pair of charming big eyes, and the chest began to have a small scale...... Zhou Ming admitted that his younger sister will definitely become a famous beauty in the future.

Even, even now, when she walks on the road, she can already attract the gaze of some farmers and knights.

"Ryan, I heard that your sister Alice is very beautiful, and tomorrow you will bring Alice to the castle, and I want her to be my little lover. "One day, when Zhou Ming went to the castle to greet Madame Madeleine, Donnie, the youngest son of the lord, said this to him.

Since ancient times, there have been many disasters and troubles, and my sister is so beautiful, she was targeted by people when she was only ten years old, and she didn't know what to do when she grew up.

"Alice, it's not that my brother doesn't want to play with you, it's that my brother must hurry up and become strong and develop his skills! After kissing Alice on the forehead, Zhou Ming took her in his arms and said.

"Well, I see, brother, you're so good to me. Alice nodded sensibly, she was brought up by this brother, and no one in this world treats her best except her brother.

"Alice, so good, brother, tell you a story, once upon a time, there was a peasant's daughter, her name was Cinderella......"

After telling seven or eight stories in a row, it wasn't until Alice pillowed her arm, smiled at the corner of her mouth, and fell into a sweet sleep, that Zhou Ming hugged her on the bed and gently covered her with a blanket.

"Alice, even if my brother has nothing in the future, I won't let you be hurt in the slightest!"

Looking at his sleeping sister, Zhou Ming secretly swore.
