Chapter 32 Training

The favorite recruits of the generals in the Middle Ages were, of course, those who had a certain cultural and military training base. Just like during www.biquge.info the Roman Empire, many Roman citizens would take their children to the barracks for one-on-one training in their free time to strengthen their children's physique, and these children only needed a short period of training to become a qualified soldier when they grew up.

Of course, in this era, most people can't even eat enough, and the decline of the military class, so it is basically impossible to reproduce the spontaneous martial style of the people during the Roman Republic. Only those martial aristocratic families will also train some children for military training from an early age according to the ancient tradition, and these children who have been trained since childhood are the best soldiers of this era.

"So you mean to let me go to the nobles and see if any of them have the idea to join my guard." Carolan asked hesitantly after listening to Heinrich's brief introduction to the process of most of the nobles now forming their own territorial guards. Because the aristocracy is always picky, they will always think too much about things, such as the future such as land.

"Of course, if you don't want to live under the torture of these pigs every day like me." After saying that, Heinrich looked back angrily at the poor recruits he was responsible for training, as if the punishment they were going through did not relieve him.

"Well, it's not that exaggerated. Don't you think they're all quite strong? Listening to the screams of the recruits as they were punished, Carolan felt that at least these poor fellows, whom Heinrich despised, had some merit.

"That's because of the grace of His Majesty Henry! They were nothing when they first arrived! Heinrich complained that it looked like he was really fed up with all this.

β€œγ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚ So where should I recruit those noble children? Carolan felt that it was best to stop talking to Heinrich about the recruits. Because just after Heinrich had finished talking to himself, as if he had been provoked again, he turned around and shouted for the guards to drag out the two badly behaved recruits and whip them. Looking at the shivering faces of the recruits, Caroline felt that the idea of forming a standing army was really naΓ―ve.

"The Guards must be chosen carefully, and the best sources are of course the second or illegitimate sons of the noble families who are loyal to you, and of course the exiled nobles. But you don't need to worry about that, I'll let Edbed help you choose the right guard. Heinrich got up and prepared to go back to the training ground, just now he had just come to see why Caroline came here to see why he was here because of the training break, and now that he knew the situation, he naturally had to go back to retrain the recruits, which was his job.

"Well, what about the armor and horses, how do you buy them?" Carolan looked at Heinrich who was leaving, and quickly asked her last question.

"Huh? Aren't these supposed to be brought by the guards? Hearing this, Heinrich asked Carol with a strange expression.

β€œγ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚ Well, thank you, Heinrich. Caroline knew she had made another mistake of common sense, but Caroline quickly adjusted her face and thanked Heinrich as if nothing had happened.

"If you want to watch me clean up these little bunnies, just take a look around, and if there's nothing to do, I'll quit first." After seeing Carolan nodding and indicating that he had no other problems for the time being, Heinrich walked back to the training ground.

"Carolan, are you going to go back or wait for me here, I'm going to take care of something now." Hearing that Carolan seemed to have finished asking all the questions, Rudolph signaled that he had some business to attend to here.

"I'll stay here for a while, and then you'll call me when you're done." Carolan said that she could see how Heinrich trained the recruits here, and Carolan was very curious about the place.

"Okay, I'll see you later." With that, Rudolph left the training ground with the guards who had been waiting for a long time. Carolan was left here curiously observing Heinrich's training style.

Looking at the recruits who were hurriedly regrouping under Heinrich's loud roar, I don't know why the four words came to Caroline's head: "Rabble." ”

"Alright, pigs, now let's continue training. If you don't want to be whipped, use your ridiculously stupid brains to tell which side is left and which side is right! Heinrich turned a blind eye to the fact that several recruits had been bumped into and thrown together in a hurry during the formation of the queue, as if it had become commonplace, and it took several minutes for the commotion in the ranks to subside, and Heinrich viciously threatened the group of recruits.

β€œγ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚ Is this really the light of Western Europe in the future--" Caroline looked at this group of guys who were inferior to future elementary school students and felt that her three views had been subverted, it was this group of messy guys who couldn't even stand well that shocked the whole of Western Europe in the next hundred years, no mistake.

"Everyone listen to the command, all turn left!" Heinrich shouted his first command.

"I'll go..." Seeing Heinrich's password issued, there were twenty-seven or eight people in the queue who turned in the wrong direction, Carolan had already lowered her head as if she couldn't bear to look at it anymore.

"All of them, take three steps forward and turn right!" Heinrich continued to order with an unchanged face, obviously Heinrich already knew very well what level the group of guys below was.

"Bang,,, bang," Carolan didn't know how to describe the consequences of Heinrich's order except for the word disaster, and a large group of recruits fell to the ground because they couldn't understand the order. Caroline couldn't help but cover his face with his hands, and couldn't bear to see what happened to these recruits, and he felt that Heinrich was about to start roaring again.

"Queue up!" To Caroline's surprise, Heinrich was not provoked. You must know that Heinrich's temper has never been very good, and in the Klose family, people privately nicknamed him: "The Furious One." ”

"Defensive formation! Move closer to the left! Heinrich gave a tactical command that was commonly used on the battlefield with a blank face. In this era, soldiers who wanted to save their lives under the onslaught of cavalry could only rely on close formations to resist the cavalry charge, so the degree of execution of this defensive order would directly determine the performance of the army in the face of cavalry.

"Boom 。。。。。。。。。。" Sure enough,,,, Carolan covered her forehead with one hand and let out such an exclamation. Because all the recruits on the training ground collided because many of them didn't distinguish between the left and right again when they were close together, this time it wasn't like the few orders just now when there was enough space between each soldier, so like dominoes, all the recruits on the entire training ground fell into a ball.

"Maybe this shouldn't be called a defensive formation, it should be called a death formation." Carolan thought silently. Even Carolan, who had never been on the battlefield, saw this scene and muttered silently in her heart, if this group of people played such a game in the face of the Magyars, then it is estimated that there would be no East Francian Kingdom in the future.

"You filthy bastards。。。。。。" Heinrich finally couldn't hold back his anger, and just listening to this deafening roar, Carolan knew why Heinrich was nicknamed the Fury.

β€œγ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚ Everybody counts five lashes! Bastards, I'm going to let you practice from left to right again! I have to say that the language of this era is really not perfect, at least when Carolan listened to Heinrich's angry greetings to these recruits, she found that Heinrich repeated and cursed people with just a few words, and there was nothing new at all. In contrast, Zhuge Liang's classmates hundreds of years ago fully demonstrated the heritage and superiority of Chinese, scolded the tricks and scolding the literary brilliance with his excellent eloquence on the battlefield, and scolded Wang Lang alive.

Carolan, who kept making up all kinds of strange things in her head, couldn't help but laugh. This laughter came at a very bad time, because just now, the recruits who had restarted their training from the most basic left and right were once again nervously demonstrating what the word "group flutter" meant.

Heinrich looked at Caroline with a dark face, although it stands to reason that he was only one of the Klose guards. But in fact, his position in the Klose family is extremely special, and usually Carolan and Rudolph respect him as an elder, so Caroland's laughter at this time made Heinrich feel extremely harsh. But Heinrich, knowing that Carolan had never been in contact with the military, would not just reprimand Carolan like that, so he was ready to find an excuse for Carolan to leave here.

Looking at Heinrich's face, Carolan knew that if she didn't find some reason to come out, then Heinrich would definitely get herself out of the training ground. Caroline didn't want to leave the training ground like that, as it would certainly leave a bad impression on Heinrich; Second, it was not easy to encounter such an interesting scene, Carolan couldn't wait to see more of the excitement, and she was willing to leave like this.

"Heinrich, I came up with a great idea to get this group of guys right." Without waiting for Heinrich to speak, Carolan decisively raised her hands in the air to signal that she had something to say.

"Oh?" Heinrich knew that Carolan had always been flexible, so he asked in surprise; To be honest, he was also a little unbearable from this group of guys, he was a master of swordsmanship! Shouting slogans every day and watching a group of tender milky guys do not distinguish between left and right, it is not his hobby. Now when he heard Carolan say this, he immediately took Carolan's untimely laughter just now as Carolan had a flash of inspiration and laughed with joy when he thought of the training method.

"Let them put their shoes on their left foot and take off their shoes with their right foot; Then you call the shoes and the footboard to it, and then let them get used to it and then put on the shoes and train. Caroline didn't sell it, and explained the training methods of the British army that dominated the world in the nineteenth century with great fluency. However, Caroline thought about it, the British army in the nineteenth century still had to use such a hard training method, and the quality of their soldiers can be imagined; Thinking of this, Carolan wanted to cry over the plan of the civilian standing army in her mind. Then he decided that if he had the opportunity, he must popularize basic education in his own territory, and Caroline would definitely not be able to stand dealing with these idiots all the time.

"Maybe you can try?" Hearing Carolan's idea, Heinrich felt that he could indeed try this, and in any case, he was now sick and rushed to the hospital, and he felt that if he continued like this, he might directly draw his sword and cut down the stupidest people.

Heinrich directly implemented Caroline's method on the training ground with the mentality of trying, don't you say, this method is worthy of the training method of the Red Shirts, this group of new troops only adapted to it a few times and quickly stopped making mistakes, not to mention Heinrich, even Carolan who was watching from the side felt magical.

"It seems that I have to find a way to recall the military drills I have read before, Nogi Noshinori's, Morris's...

Caroline made up his mind to go back and sort out the training books he had read before, and today he really understood what the quality of the current civilian soldier is.

Seeing that the recruits who had used Caroline's methods were now in good shape, Caroline felt that he would not have much to see if he stayed here, so he decided to go to Rudolph and go home.
