Chapter 149: Training and Returning Home

It wasn't that Davers hadn't thought about the weak protection of the spearmen, but the spearmen were not in his plans for the future of the Dionian army, and in his mind they were only a temporary unit. When he arrived, Dionya would have been able to raise more powerful cavalry to deal with the enemy's cavalry.

"Blow the marching trumpet, let them run, and charge again for me to see." Davers looked at the sky and urged.

Despite what Davers said, it was dangerous to have a freedfolk who had never used such a long spear to charge in a group with a gun. Therefore, the instructors repeatedly instructed the recruits at the front of the queue on the essentials of the movements.

"Woooooooooooo ......" The bugle sounded three times in a row, and the freedmen, led by the instructor, raised their spears in both hands and began to jog.

The queue, which had been restored with great difficulty, began to become crooked again as the speed increased, and the gap between the front and back columns was also widening.

At this time, the trumpets sounded more rapidly, and the recruits roared angrily, and the first line of soldiers lowered their spears, and the soldiers in the back queue raised their spears diagonally in turn, so as not to accidentally injure the soldiers in the front row during the run. From the side, the spear went from low to high, quite three-dimensional, but it didn't last long, and the formation of thousands of people scattered in the charge, some were too protruding, some were backward, and they were not in array at all, and a few people fell down while running, and accidentally injured several teammates.

Cappuz looked at Davers with a slight apprehension.

Davers had a calm face, he had changed the four-meter halberd of the Swiss in his previous life to a simpler spear, reducing the weight, but it was obviously not something that the freedmen who had used it for the first time and had never been on the battlefield could easily grasp, he thought for a while and said: "I have a suggestion, don't charge in a unified large phalanx, this is too rigid, and it is easy to disconnect the queue, it is better to take the detachment as a small whole, just like the heavy infantry phalanx before the enemy is staggered and marching, in this way to surprise the enemy's cavalry, This makes it easier for the officers to control the soldiers, not only to ensure that each part of the dense small phalanx, but also to make the formation flexible and able to occupy a larger area. For the cavalry of Syracuse from the Numibia and Po plains, our spearmen should also be more agile to be able to catch them......"

After listening carefully to Davers's advice, Capus was greatly inspired, and he immediately said: "Your Majesty, I will immediately let them train according to what you say. ”

Davers solemnly reminded again: "Master Cappus, there is not much time left for them to train, you must find a way to make these free people initially familiar with the use of this spear and the change of offensive formation within two or three days as soon as possible!" ”

Cappuz nodded heavily and strode onto the training ground.

…………………………………

After a busy day, Davers finally set out on a moonlit night and returned to his mansion.

When I opened the door, I heard a shout of joy: "Master...... No, Your Majesty! ”

"Your Majesty, you're back! Congratulations on becoming King of Dionia! ”

"Your Majesty, congratulations on defeating the Syracuse Navy and annihilating the Tarantums!"

……

Davers became King of Dionia, and the slaves of his mansion felt elevated and honored.

Davers nodded to them one by one, and finally came to the slave steward Ribazzo: "It's been hard work for you at home this time!" ”

"Your Majesty, this is my duty!" Ribazo said respectfully: "Madame and the little masters are waiting for you in the inner courtyard!" ”

"They haven't slept so late?!" Davers was a little surprised, more moved, and then he said solemnly to Riba: "You let them all go to rest, blow out all the candles in the cloister, put them away, is it time to celebrate!" And how can it be wasted like this, aren't you afraid of the people's discussions! ”

Although Davers said it tactfully, Ribazol heard the reproach in his words, and he hurriedly bowed his head and confessed.

"The higher the status, the more low-key and cautious you should be! You must always keep this sentence in mind and restrain them, otherwise whoever has a problem, I will settle accounts with you first! Davers's warning woke Ribazzo to himself.

Davers pushed open the backyard door, where Asuna was already waiting, and said happily, "Your Majesty, welcome home!" ”

"Asuna, thanks to you during this time, Christoya was able to give birth to Eunice, and the mother and daughter are safe, thank you!" Davers sincerely thanked the backyard director.

Although Asuna was excited in her heart, she didn't dare to answer, but said, "Both ladies and children are waiting for you in Lady Christoya's bedroom!" ”

"Oh, it looks like it's going to be lively tonight!" Davers laughed.

"Your Majesty, have you had dinner?"

"I'm too busy to eat yet, so you can prepare me two loaves of bread, a bowl of porridge, and a glass of wine."

"Okay, Your Majesty, I'll get it ready for you soon."

As soon as Davers pushed open the bedroom door, a figure quickly burst into his arms, and exclaimed eagerly, "Daddy, you're finally back, I miss you to death!" ”

Davers smiled and hugged little Chloe: "Dad misses you too, let Dad see if you have gained weight during this time?" ”

Little Chloe immediately puffed out her cheeks.

Davers was amused, and gave him a gentle tudge on his fleshy little face.

"Father!" A crisp voice came from behind him.

"Cynthia, I've only been away for a month, and you seem to have grown taller again." Davers smiled and said to his adopted daughter, and he walked over with little Chloe in his arms, pressed his hand on Cynthia's head, and made a gesture to measure his height.

"Father...... Father. Adores, who was next to Cynthia, shouted nervously. Strange to say, Adorys usually has a stubborn personality, but when he sees Davers, he is nervous and well-behaved like a girl.

"Adores, you didn't ask the teacher to sue your mother, did you?" Davers quipped.

"I didn't ...... No. Adorys shook his head.

"Father, school is temporarily closed." Cynthia chimed in.

"Classes are suspended?" Davers was a little surprised, and after thinking about it, it was normal, and he said: "Then you all stay at home during this time, Cynthia, you are the elder sister, but you have to take care of these two younger brothers and reduce the burden on your two mothers." ”

"Hmm." Cynthia nodded earnestly.

"Cynthia is very sensible and has helped me and Agnes a lot of things. But some people don't want to go home to see it, let alone help, even if they go back to the city after being away from home for so long! Davers looked up, and Christoya sat on the wooden bed, looking at him angrily, while Agnes was lying on her side on the bed, her face full of resentment.

As soon as "I" Davers said words, he found that this time was not suitable for review, and he immediately said softly: "Aren't I coming back?" ”

Christoya snorted: "It's okay if you don't come back, as soon as you come back, we'll give away more than half of our hard-earned money in the past few years!" ”

Agnes secretly patted Christoya with her hand, she had a traditional personality and finally looked forward to her husband's return, not wanting to spoil this warm atmosphere, or even have a quarrel.

There was no need for Davers to defend himself, and said, "Mom, don't blame Dad!" ”

"Hey, it's still my baby thinking about me!" Davers happily kissed little Chloe's pink face: "Let's go, go with Daddy to see your little sister." ”

Eunice was lying beside Christoya, awake by the moment, but not crying.

As Davers approached her daughter, Christoya hurriedly reminded, "Be careful, don't frighten her." ”

"Don't worry, I'm Phelps' teacher."

"Doctors know how to raise children?"

"I am a divine being, knowing everything, including yours...... Body. Davers leaned into her ear and uttered the last word.

Christoya's face immediately turned crimson, and she reached out and slapped him lightly, and the mustard before disappeared without a trace.

Davers gently picked up Eunice, and the little man was looking at him curiously with big, bright blue eyes.

"Hey, baby, I'm your daddy." Davers said softly to her.

"Ah...... Ah......h

Davers let her grasp her hands, turned to Christoya and smiled, "Eunice's hands are quite strong!" ”

At this moment, Christoya looked at the father and daughter gently, and nodded lightly when she heard the words.

"Dad, my strength is greater than my sister's!" Road.

"You're an older brother, of course you have a lot of strength." Davers smiled, "Little Chloe, do you see if your sister is very beautiful?" ”

At this time, little Chloe didn't know what it meant to be pretty. He just nodded along with his father: "Well, pretty." ”

To tell the truth, the red color of the birth has receded, and the wrinkled skin is also filled with plenty of milk, free, Eunice has a full forehead, bright eyes, a straight little nose, ruddy lips, and delicate skin...... A beautiful baby indeed.

Davers turned back to the children and said, "Do you think little Eunice looks like her father?" ”

Cynthia shook her head: "Not really." ”

Seeing that his sister said this, Adores also said, "...... Not like. ”

"My sister is like a mother." Little Chloe is the most direct.

Davers laughed and said, "Fortunately, unlike me, like Christia, little Eunice will be a big beauty in the future!" ”

Christoya gave him a blank look and stretched out her hand: "Give me the child, the first time you saw her, you hugged her for too long, she should cry for a while." ”

Davers reluctantly handed Eunice to Christoya, turned back to the children and said, "Children, our family is more lively now, you have an extra sister." And here," his right hand rested lightly on Agnes' lower abdomen, "your mother Egnes will add you another brother next year." As older brothers and sisters, you have to take good care of them, you know! ”u
