Chapter 30: On the Eve of the Military Parade
Although it can't be like the Huns Mao Dun Shan Yu, the soldiers can shoot his wife into a sieve without thinking about it, but the soldiers of Count Xiao Tang are a little bit of a posture. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
And compared to Mao Dunshan Yu, who lost a horse and a wife, and killed a large number of disobedient soldiers, Count Tang just beat them with a wooden stick or a leather whip, or a fist, which can be said to be not a lot of investment.
But the effect is pretty much the same.
For example, when Count Don took out his knife and slashed at the other party, while telling the other party to 'don't dodge', the soldiers' performance was quite unsatisfactory - although their bodies were still shaking, they did watch the snow bright blade cut down and did not dodge.
"I'm not going to really cut you! Stand up straight! And even if I do cut you, I won't hack you to death! I told you to stand up straight! ”
However, of course, since the little Earl Tang intends to give Prince Tade a 'color' ruthlessly, then he must not tolerate these small shortcomings. However, presumably, it will not be long before these bastard soldiers will be able to achieve the expected goal of Count Don under the guidance of sticks and carrots......
Rigorous discipline training is accompanied by combat-oriented training.
The weapon chosen by Count Don Jr. was a gun.
A six-meter-long spear.
Before the birth of the Son, Rome swept the world with such spears, and a century later, the world-famous Swiss mercenary regiments were also invincible with such spears.
With Zhu Yu in front and Nuan Yu in the back, the value of this weapon has been historically appraised, why doesn't Count Xiao Tang use it?
Moreover, the gun, which is actually the easiest weapon for a soldier to grasp.
Although there used to be such a saying in my country: "The knife of the month stick year, the gun of a lifetime."
But this gun refers to personal martial arts and personal bravery, which is completely different from the army-standard gun that Count Xiao Tang wants.
The spear in the personal martial arts needs to master the picking and wiping, slashing and sweeping, but the soldiers of the army only need to master one kind, that is, 'thorn'.
A person who is stabbed in the head will die, a person who is stabbed in the heart will die, a person who is stabbed in the limbs will die, a person who is stabbed in the large intestine will also die—and the last one will die the worst, the stab in the large intestine will prevent food from entering the digestive tract, and most of the time they will starve to death.
You see, people are so fragile that they can die if they are stabbed a little, so why not use a gun?
"So, train hard! You pigs! "Count Don Jr. asked the blacksmith in the town below the castle to make an iron horn for himself. It's pretty powerful to use—at least for the soldiers' eardrums.
Amidst the shouts and curses of Count Don, the soldiers leveled their spears and stabbed them in front of the right, stabbing them in front of the right, and there was nothing else but the action of stabbing in front of the right.
"Aim for the goal – for the target! You have to hit the red dot every time! Count Don Jr. continued to shout loudly, kicking the ass of a somewhat distracted soldier by the way.
His so-called red dot is naturally the bull's-eye, located in the heart of the human - and as for the "right stab" is the most basic tactical move of the super pikeman. Take a step forward with your left foot and turn to the right, while your right foot is backwards in a lunge while you stab the gun out with both hands.
This is a great way to deal with conscripted serfs, and it is also useful for shielded axemen - when the sword and shield men attack, their shields will tilt slightly due to the movement of their swords, revealing the vital heart, and this is the best time to stab - of course, this requires the calm judgment of the pikemen, and a little luck.
For example, because the force of the sword swing is not so great, the gap exposed in the shield is insufficient, and for example, a stone suddenly pops out of the ground, which knocks the sword and axe soldiers down, of course, it is more likely that they are blocked outside the six-meter spear formation of the pikemen.
However, stabbing training requires targets, but it is impossible for Earl Don Jr. to really get them that many targets in such a short period of time. Therefore, he frantically drew these targets, these red hearts, on the back of the soldiers' hearts.
In this way, he only had to get targets for the soldiers in the first row - of course, the most important thing was that these extra-long guns were all removed from the guns, and in addition, the little Count Tang also padded the back of the soldiers' hearts.
That's it, discipline training, courage training, combat training, every day, these soldiers seem to be living in hell, except for the time to sleep and eat, they have always, all the time they have been training, if one day does not meet the requirements of the little Count Tang, then even at night, the stars and the moon must be trained - as for the question of light, although rest assured, in this era of no light pollution, the stars at night are enough to illuminate the road.
So the time passed quickly, and finally it was time to book.
On the fifteenth day, a meteor crossed the sky, a great murderer, easy to raise a knife soldier, and the main killing.
The last sack of grain from the most remote village was put on the wagon from Munster, and the grain collector on the mission drew a beautiful tick on the paper of the record, and the Earl of Don and Prince Tad watched with their own eyes, and Prince Tad exhaled deeply.
For him, this mission was not only to bring the nearby nobles closer so that he could gain support for his future succession. It was more his father, the Grand Duke of Mulchid, who was testing his abilities and whether he was qualified for everything the duke. And now it seems that the results are not bad, the news from Munster has arrived, the first car of grain from Desmond to Munster has arrived, there are no obstacles or accidents on the way, if this is a test paper with a perfect score of 100, then Prince Tad thinks he can get 40 points - he has another Ormond county that has not been visited!
Therefore, when he received the invitation of the Earl of Little Tang to attend the 'carnival', he was very hesitant.
Is there a reason, first, he is really in a hurry, Count Ormond has no news yet, and he still has to supervise Count Ormond! Second, it's really not the time to hold a carnival, I've never heard of the Autumn Harvest Carnival, how can there be a carnival in the middle of the hot summer?
"Cousin, you can't go!" At that time, Count Xiao Tang said this: "You asked for food, but I agreed without hesitation, and now I need VIPs at my carnival, and you happen to be here, you can't help but give me face, right?" Besides, our brothers say goodbye like this, and I don't know when we will go next time we meet, this carnival should be a farewell for you and my brother. ”
"Huh? This...... This...... All right. ”
Prince Tad hesitated for a while, but finally agreed to the invitation of the Earl of Little Tang: "This carnival is only two or three days, and I am two or three days late to Ormond, what can I do?"
That's what Prince Tad thought at the time.
And so, Carnival came.
