Chapter 0040 Military Sentry
At the sound of Rafde's military whistle, sixty-three horsemen demonstrated a wedge-shaped formation designed to tear apart the enemy's battle formation, a circular formation for complete defense, a frontal march and a phalanx against the enemy, a half-encircled arc formation, a sweeping formation with a line, and a marching column......
Tywin Lannister was in a good mood to see that the cavalry were very well coordinated.
Although these are Gregor's family cavalry, they are actually the power of his Tywin Lannister, and pulling them out will not disgrace the West.
For a newly formed cavalry team, it is remarkable to have mastered all the formations and formation changes in a short period of time.
Tywin also knew that there were two new recruits who had just joined, and they were the brothers of Knight Alan Charlotte, who poisoned Sir Gregor.
For the civilians of the West, the slightly better conditions have learned to ride horses since childhood. This is a world where everyone is a soldier, and everyone usually does their own thing, and once there is a war, they have to immediately put down what they are in their hands and change into military uniforms to fight.
However, the skillful coordination of horseback riding and cavalry battle formations are completely different things, and it is difficult for so many people to form a perfect whole without professional and hard training in various battle formations of cavalry.
There's no doubt that Gregor has a talent for military affairs.
But the performance of the cavalry he assembled in a short period of time was too impressive!
However, considering the fact that under the terrifying pressure of Gregor, not a single cavalryman dared to be lazy in training. Tywin Lannister knows this. His own regiment of five hundred cavalry guards was also trained by Gregor, and there was not a single cavalry who dared to defy Gregor's authority, even though their surnames were Lannister, or relatives of the Lannister family.
Because the soldiers who dared to disobey the order had either been killed by Gregor or thrown into the underground black cell by Tywin.
In this world, there are not many soldiers who are purely professional, and only the great nobles can afford to raise a professional legion. Generally speaking, the richest nobles will not have more than two thousand professional soldiers in their families for many years. The average nobleman, with professional soldiers raised at home, ranged from three hundred to a thousand.
Wealthy more than other countries such as Duke Tywin Lannister, there are only 1,500 professional soldiers in Castle Rock. Of course, his daughter, Queen Cersei Lannister, also raised 500 Red Robe Army of the Western Frontier in King's Landing, because of the profligate debt of his son-in-law King, Queen Cersei's 500 Red Robe Army of the Western Frontier was also raised by Tywin Lannister.
However, this time Tywin summoned Gregor to bring his troops back to Castle Rock, not to show off his cavalry training, but to care about a new thingβa gadget that has never been seen in the Seven Kingdoms since ancient times: the military sentry.
The sound of the military sentry is indeed sharp and high-pitched, and it is still very penetrating and recognizable in the sound of horses' hooves and the shouts of the soldiers, which is very useful for giving orders in the battle formation of thousands of troops.
At the age of seventeen, Tywin Lannister responded to the king's call to participate in the 'Battle of the Nine Bronze Kings' and became famous, and was known as the Twin of the Seven Kingdoms at the time along with Brynden Tully of Riverlands. Both of the boys were eye-catching in battle, and both charged into battle to kill the enemy's great leader, helping the legion win the Battle of the Nine Bronze Kings.
Tywin, who had survived the bloody battles, knew how important it was to convey the general's orders in the midst of thousands of troops, and that it was very difficult to accurately convey military orders and command the legions to advance and retreat in the midst of the neighing of horses. The human throat is gradually damaged and affects the transmission of sound in the shouting and yelling, and no one can keep the original sound loud in a great battle, let alone the general himself who will participate in the battle and charge forward.
If the invention of this military post can protect the general's voice and emit a recognition beyond the general's shouting, it will be a very practical invention, and it will obviously help the Western Frontier Army to a higher level of combat power.
"Show me the sentry. Duke Tywin said.
Throughout, he kept a straight face, showing no praise for Gregor and his impressive cavalry.
Ruthless and unsmiling is the norm for Tywin Lannister.
Ralphd Clegane jumped off his horse and ran up to the viewing platform, respectfully handing over several military posts that had been prepared to Tywin.
"Teach me!" said Duke Tywin.
"Yes, sir!"
Hundreds of people, including the duke's five hundred cavalry, bachelors and servants, all watched with bated breath as Ralphd Cregan taught Duke Tywin Lannister to blow the military whistle on the viewing platform, except for the snort of the war horses and the occasional horse bark in the large school field, no one dared to make a sound.
If Gregor is the devil, it's terrifying. Then Tywin is the Demon King, and he is even more irreversible.
Twenty-five years since the birth of the little demon Tyrion Lannister in 273 Aegon Calendar, no one has seen Tywin smile even a bit.
Half an hour later, Duke Tywin stopped studying.
He decided to introduce a military sentinel system in the Western Frontier Army.
"Sir Gregor, you invented the sentry, yes. βa great invention, but it only got a good review from Tywin's mouth, "What do you want me to reward you?"
What do you want me to reward you?
This sentence is an understatement, but it is actually very heavy.
Duke Tywin rewarded his subordinates, never asking for their opinions, and always rewarding them directly for what he thought was appropriate. He consulted the Magic Mountain for advice this time, which already showed the importance in his heart.
Not only the Potter Priests beside Tywin, but the five centurions of his cavalry battalion, and hundreds of cavalry, even Gregor himself felt a slight move in his heart.
Tywin Lannister is rich, but never generous.
But he actually consulted Gregor today, and Gregor estimated that it had something to do with the production of snow salt. Snow salt production is a means of getting rich just a little worse than digging gold mines, and it is actually very remarkable to be able to solve the problem of eating salt bitterness and a little bit of sediment in the salt in this world.
"Please give me a marriage, Lord Duke!" said Gregor.
Duke Tywin was stunned.
Gregor's request surprised everyone.
Since he lost his two wives, he himself has lost interest in marriage, and the nobles of the West, big and small, all talk about the demonic change. Both of his wives died strangely, both of them accidentally fell and broke their necks and died.
"Whose girl do you have a crush on?"
"Crag Rock. Jenny Westerling. β
Duke Tywin's pale green eyes narrowed slightly.
"The Westerlings are the oldest families in the West, and their noble bloodlines are unmatched. Earl Gavin Westerling is even more proud, and he will not listen to me and marry Janine Westerling to you. β
"Lord Duke, while praying in front of the statue of the Seven Gods, I heard the will of the Seven Gods, who asked me to marry Jane Westerling. β
"The Seven Gods?"
"Yes, Lord Duke, the wisdom of my inventions is based on the will of the Seven Gods. In honor of the Seven Gods, in the Clegon Territory, the Seven Sacred Churches have been built. β
Who is Jenny Westerling?
Gregor knows in his heart that the Janine he wants to marry is the beautiful wife from the pre-time-traveling TV series who caused Robb Stark's death at the bloody wedding. In fact, in the original story, what impressed Robb Stark was not his medical skills, but her beauty, kindness, noble birth and elegant temperament, plus the versatility of a noble lady.
Born in the year 283 of Aegon, Jane Westerling is exactly fifteen years old and sixteen years old.
