"Interested in taking a look?" William rode on his war horse and said proudly to Delseth.

Del Seth nodded happily, if it's just that the territory is rich and the army is not strong enough, then it won't work, and if you can't even protect your wealth, you can't talk about recovering the country.

They walked through the village under the manor and into the walls of the manor, only to see that in the largest open space in the manor, more than 600 soldiers were divided into two parts, carrying out different training contents.

The remaining nearly 300 infantry were practicing their assassination skills, and the three-meter-long spear was very skillful in their hands, and they were screaming to stab the spear under the command of the instructor arranged by William, and it looked like a huge momentum.

As for the newly transferred soldiers, who are still undergoing basic training, unlike the veterans who wear leather armor all over their bodies, they do not yet have that kind of treatment.

They carry 30 kilograms of weight on their bodies, and they are running lifelessly, which is very important for these rookies who have just enlisted in the army.

"This ...... Do these soldiers have to train like this every day? Del Seth asked in surprise as he looked at the energetic soldiers.

"Of course, they must be trained at the highest intensity from morning to night, all the time, so that they can master all the skills required for war as quickly as possible, and my soldiers must be strong warriors, not scrawny serfs!" William smiled and looked at the training soldiers, and said in high spirits.

"It's unbelievable, it costs a lot to train soldiers like this, even if the army of our Zen Ketu Principality, the elite soldiers in it will not receive such high-intensity training, at most, they will train for a while every day, and then disband, it must cost a lot to train soldiers like you!" Delsaith said in amazement.

He was not surprised by the soldiers' equipment, but at the intensity of their training, presumably due to the fact that he often saw armed infantry in the Duchy of Zenkotu.

"Well, it does cost a lot, but there are not many places where the silver coins are really used, the meat they eat every day is solved by the lambs in my territory, these lambs are my property, let the civilians help me to herd, I will give them some meat, plus the ewes produce milk, and sometimes there will be ploughing cattle sick and dead, I will give them this meat to eat, so that they will become stronger!" William explained to Delseth.

"It's unbelievable, the entire Lorde nation still has such a rich territory as you, by the way, where did so many cattle and sheep come from in your territory, I just saw that those children were forced by their parents to drink those milk, and the most important thing is that they were forced, if it was other territories, I guess I would go crazy!"

"Yes, but this is mandatory for me, every child must have a small can of goat's milk every day, and no tax will be added!" William said with some amusement.

"So, why do you force feed children when they don't like goat's milk? Goat's milk is a kind of income when it is made into cheese or sold directly, right? Delcyth couldn't figure it out and asked suspiciously.

"You don't understand this, I want to strengthen the physique of the people, those residents outside are rarely more than one meter seven tall, right!" William gestured to the village outside.

"Even if I give them more nutrition at this time, they won't grow taller, at most they will be a little fatter and stronger, but the height is really a hard injury, and recruiting into the army is really a bit ......" William didn't know how to describe the back, it should be awkward, looking at a group of troops more than 1.60 meters tall really made him feel troubled.

"This height? Are you still not satisfied? Most of the people are this height, the height of the residents in your territory is already considered high, and many residents of our Zen Ketu Principality do not have this height, you are really greedy! Delseth habitually joked.

"Delseth! How do you talk to adults? Bansteske frowned, and reprimanded Delseth, now that both of them were bowing their heads to William, and saying such disrespectful words under the fence, if they offended William, then the days after that would not be too happy.

"Ah, I'm sorry Baron William, but I'm not choosing what to say!" Delseth hastened to apologize.

"It doesn't matter, I will never be satisfied with the people, if their physical fitness improves, it means that the quality of my army has improved, think about it, if my people's physical fitness is high enough, all of them are one meter nine tall, then it is simply a berserk guard who doesn't need medicine!" William said wistfully.

Del Seth looked at William with a surprised expression, this was simply delusional, he couldn't imagine that the lords could reach the height of the Berserk Guard, and it was estimated that it would be difficult for the nobles to restrain them at that time!

Looking at Delcess's stunned appearance, William suddenly smiled and said: "Of course, this is just a fantasy, at least for one or two hundred years, it is impossible to reach this height, you will be crazy for me!" ”

"Interested in seeing the training of the cavalry?" The two were silent for a while, and William suddenly spoke.

"Cavalry?" Delseth asked in surprise.

"Yes, cavalry, not knights!" William explained.

"That's really rare, I haven't seen a few countries and territories with cavalry instead of knights since I arrived here in your southeast!" Del Seth said in amazement.

"You mean, there's a lot of cavalry in your hometown that aren't knights?"

"Ah, the tradition on our side is not the same as yours, the knights are only a few, most of them are big nobles, although they will divide vassals and knights, but there will not be too many, they will also keep a lot of cavalry and infantry and other strong regular troops in their hands, the knightly system is not as popular as the central and eastern regions, in short, the western kingdoms are not too influenced by the Holy Father and the Church." Delsaith said.

"It's like my father, although he is a saint, but my mother is not, if on your side it is unbelievable, because everyone here is a saint."

William's understanding of the Western Kingdoms has reached a new level, and it turns out that the entire Holy Religion world still has such a chaotic and unfamiliar territory controlled by the Church.

"But I'm interested in your cavalry, go check it out!" Delseth said with a smile.

William and the others got off their horses and walked to the cavalry training ground outside the manor, while the knights returned to their rooms in the manor.

More than 60 cavalrymen were wearing armor for training, the first batch of training was already more proficient in horsemanship, and it was already possible to fight immediately, especially the heavy cavalry, they were particularly skilled, but the second group of cavalry, which was later trained to number 30 people, was still practicing horsemanship.

More than three months of training time is enough for them to learn to ride horses, but fighting on horses as cavalry is not what they can do now, and the cavalry of the cold weapon era does not train for three years, do you still want to fight?

Don't even think about it, even if the cavalry under William has such high-intensity training, don't learn to fight on horseback without more than a year, even if it is the first batch of cavalry, they have been trained for more than a year, and their combat effectiveness cannot be compared with the knights, and the cavalry cannot be quickly improved.

"How's that, how are these cavalrymen trained?" William asked, he didn't dare to be in front of Delseth anymore, after all, he was the commander of the heavy cavalry of a principality, he might be able to train infantry, but he was definitely not as good as a professional in cavalry.

"Hmm...... How to say it! Delceth said with some hesitation.

Norwen on the side couldn't help frowning when he heard the tone of some scrutiny, but he didn't have a seizure on the spot, he planned to hear what this person had to say.

"It doesn't matter, just say it, improving combat effectiveness is the most important thing."

Del Seth criticized some of the movements of these heavy cavalry from the perspective of a professional, and then explained several heavy cavalry tactics to William, saying that the current cavalry could not complete those tactics at all.

To tell the truth, William did sound very reasonable, and these questions had already been pointed out by Delseth, and he suddenly became enlightened.

"Otherwise, I'll let my two servants follow you to learn the training of these cavalrymen first, and I hope you don't have any reservations to hand over everything to them, after all, this can be regarded as a help for your future recovery.

William was afraid that Delsaith would retain some important techniques and not say it, so he brought up the matter of the restoration of the country, hoping that Delsaith would teach his followers wholeheartedly.

As for why he was not directly in charge of training, as already said, he would not let two close people hold military power at the same time.
