For most cadets at the Bathton Military Academy, riding a horse is probably the easiest and most interesting subject they find to be. During the special training, Weiss learned a lot of common knowledge related to the military from the personal trainer sent by the fat vice president, a retired soldier with very good skills. For example, the region east of the Ulster, where the Ulster Free Federation is located, has long been rich in large, fast and high-quality horses, and thanks to this, the Ulster-Baston Cavalry was the most feared elite force on the planet before the Musket was born. In those days, in order to become a respected knight, it was necessary to know how to tame and control those violent horses.

Since entering the era of great industry, especially after the discovery of the characteristics of the "Star Source Stone" to generate huge lift when it is energized, the flying warship has quickly become the most domineering military equipment on the planet. The traditional mode of warfare in which cavalry opens the way, infantry assaults, and artillery support has been completely subverted, air combat has replaced land warfare as the key battlefield that dominates the direction of war, and the size and quality of the air fleet have also become the core indicators for measuring a country's military strength. In this context, the weight of the army in the national defense strategy plummeted, and most of the country's defense resources were invested in the development and construction of flying warships, but it did not take long for the rapidly rising Norman Empire to sweep through the countries with an unstoppable momentum, almost forcing the Ulster Free Federation and the Kingdom of Wessex into a desperate situation. In the midst of a spectacular global war, the Ulster Free Confederation and the Kingdom of Wessex were able to defeat the mighty Norman Empire and save the planet from falling into the hands of a fanatical military empire.

After the end of the war, military strategists began to reflect on the relationship and positioning of the aviation unit and the army unit, and the once marginalized army unit was rebuilt and adopted a series of modernization and innovation measures, although the cavalry no longer shouldered the heavy responsibility of charging into battle, but in view of the limited density of the railway network, the internal combustion engine technology is still in the early stage of development, and the mobility and flexibility that can be obtained by riding a war horse are still valued by the army troops. The Federal Army reinstated horseback riding as a basic training subject. According to the "Infantry Drill Code" revised after the war, a qualified Union infantry soldier should have the basic skills of riding a horse for 12 hours in a row, and know how to touch, adapt, comfort and control a war horse in a relatively short period of time, so as to adapt to the requirements of infantry riding and maneuvering in wartime - this is the origin of the horse riding subject set by the Bathton Military Academy.

When the second-year cadets lined up to the horse farm of the military academy, more than 200 war horses were already waiting for them in the horse pen surrounded by a wooden fence. These sturdy and majestic horses are not old war horses that have been in service for a long time, but "raw horses" that have just left the war horse breeding base. In the war horse base, they have received some basic training, not as completely inhuman as wild horses, but also not like the farmers who raise their own horses to plough the land or pull carts and pack goods, they have not met the real master, nor have they really been tamed, plus the stallions generally do not cut geldings, so they retain a more primitive and violent character. After being sent to the Gaston Military Academy, they will not only be the "teaching aids" of the military course, but will also become the first war horse of the cadets in their long military career, accompanying them for the next two years or more - according to the past practice, after the cadets successfully complete and obtain the qualification of officers, they can report to the army with the war horse that they have tamed and cultivated for two years.

"Listen, gentlemen, this is your last exam before you officially become a second-year student at the Barston Military Academy. I'm sure you've heard from your seniors that this exam has a special name, 'Boys Pick Girls'. Your girls, the horses in the stable, have a whole afternoon to complete this exam, as always. All you have to do is to choose the 'girl' you like, and try to persuade 'her' to follow you. Do you understand? The instructor in charge of the team took his rudimentary tin megaphone and briefed the students about the rules of the exam.

"Ming...... White...... Finish! ”

The students' answers were extremely hard, and the excitement was really no different from a group of young men who were ready to pick girls.

In the last exam, which was not too difficult, most of the students had already relaxed in advance, but Weiss was an exception. In the more than 20 years that he has been a life at the top of the earth's biological chain, he has ridden a donkey, herded a cow, raised a dog, but is not familiar with horses, and after coming to this terrestrial planet and becoming a member of the Clumber-Haysen family, the only few horseback riding experiences have not been very successful, and in the fat vice president's private special training crash course, although he has learned some horse taming and riding skills, but he has not had time to practice it a few more times. Therefore, after passing the last exam, he hesitated: But he must not fall on this last "score question"!

As soon as the whistle blew, the students rushed forward in a swarm, as if they could pick the best and strongest war horses by running first place.

With a hesitant and hesitant mood, Weiss naturally fell behind.

Obviously, not everyone was interested in choosing a war horse, and after a while, the baby-faced little brother who was also lagging behind, Nikolai Leboyd, greeted from a distance of more than ten meters: "Hey, why are you a master horse trainer sick?" What's uncomfortable? Is this the rhythm of waiting for them to finish picking before going in? ”

"A master horse trainer?" Weiss sighed, "Which of my fingers looks like a master horse trainer?" Come on, come on, chop it down and take it! ”

Weiss's self-consciously boring black humor actually made this young man laugh and roll back and forth.

It was the second time he had seen him laugh.

After laughing, the creature walked up to him, pointed to his face, and said, "It's not that I'm boasting, no one knows you better than I do in this Baston Academy!" I know exactly what you're good at and what you're not good at! ”

"I see!" Weiss put his arm around his shoulder, "You must have been a roundworm in my stomach in your last life!" ”

The baby-faced little brother didn't seem to like to be touched by others, he frowned and pushed Weiss away, his face was full of unhappiness, as if he was about to get angry, but after only a few seconds, he stretched his brows, dissipated his gloom, and said with some twist: "In this Baston College, you are the only one who can sit on my bed, put on my shoulder, and eat at the same table with me." If it had been someone else, I would have punched me in the face a long time ago! ”

The afternoon sun was warm, but Weiss felt goosebumps on his back, oh my god, this shouldn't be a good mouthful, right?

The two came to the outside of the horse circle, leaned against the wooden fence, and watched the students pick "girls" inside. Some people fall in love at first sight, frankly and enthusiastically choose their new partner, and happily carry out the first contact, while most people are still observing, selecting, searching, some are forward-looking, hesitant, some are steady and cautious, and all kinds of concerns.

"Hey, you are a cleanliness addict, and you still want to be the commander of a flying battleship with soot and gunpowder smoke floating everywhere? I've seen enough of it! Weiss said tentatively. If this product is just a cleanliness fetish or some kind of obsessive-compulsive disorder, he can continue to be friends with him, but if it is good to break his sleeves, then I'm sorry, Uncle will not accompany him.

"It's not a matter of cleanliness at all!" The little brother glared at Weiss and said, "You know, I don't like here, I don't like everyone here, and it's impossible to make friends with people here." ”

This sentence made Weiss worry just now, and most of the diaphragm in his heart should disappear, and he was about to open his mouth to comfort him, when he heard the baby-faced little brother take the initiative to say: "Okay, I know what you want to say, I thought about it for a long time, and I almost figured it out." As long as it's gold, it can shine anywhere, doesn't it? ”

Wei Si said: "The ancients said well, real gold needs fire to refine!" I think if you can come out on top at the Baseton Military Academy, or even win the first place, you will still be the pride of everyone! ”

The little brother snorted and said in a suppressed voice: "I think I have never been their pride, but the delicate flower they carefully cared for!" ”

Weiss encouraged: "Then you should show your true strength and let them know that you are not a flower in a greenhouse, but a tree that has grown strongly, a tree that can be the pillar!" ”

The baby-faced little brother pondered for a moment, then turned his head to look at Weiss: "Do you think I can do it?" ”

"Hah!" Weiss smiled, "It's not me bragging, in this Baston Academy, no one knows your strength better than me!" Fair matchup, normal play, most subjects, your strength can definitely be ranked in the top ten! ”

The little brother squinted and said: "In everyone's eyes, I am a domineering person who relies on my family and the world, why is it different in your eyes?" ”

Weiss avoided his gaze, looked up at the sky at a forty-five degree angle, and pretended to be able to give full marks: "Because I am the one who really knows you, and the one who you will always be treated as a brother!" ”

The thing next to him hesitated for a few seconds: "Okay! Even you, a self-depraved fellow, have risen up, and what reason do I have to continue to sink? From today onwards, I want to show my full strength and let them see that I am no longer the child they remember stumbling when they walk! ”

With that, he jumped lightly, climbed over the fence more than half a person high, turned to Weiss and smiled: "Also, I remember your words, in this life, we will always be brothers!" ”

Weiss grinned, watching the baby-faced little brother who had faded a lot of sorrow and sorrow running towards his new life, his heart was excited, and then, he wanted to learn from him to climb over the fence handsomely, but he didn't jump high enough, and his arm strength and waist strength were not strong enough. So, this thing reluctantly admitted that in this world, his strength is really hard......
