Soon, fifteen minutes passed in the process of rubbing between the cotton rag and the sword. During this period, Avril also used Su Hao's mouth to popularize the maintenance steps of the sword to Ken and these Nord recruits, which are to wipe the sword, coil the sword, put on anti-rust oil, maintain accessories and raise the scabbard, and also explained the specific details and the corresponding principle and function of each step. Not only did these recruits nod their heads again and again, but even Ken himself was greatly inspired, looking at Su Hao's gaze, it was different.

Of course, now that the conditions are insufficient, we can only do everything to power.

Next, it's training.

The recruits stood in a neat line, their eyes leveled with the front, meticulous, willing to inspect them, nodded, and then shouted, "Disperse!" ”

The recruits scattered.

Ken shouted, "Today, you only need to train one move, and that is to slash!" Now, raise your weapons! ”

After he finished speaking, he raised the gold-inlaid long sword weighing more than 10 pounds, and slashed forward, only to see a string of sword shadows flash, and a sword wind swept past the recruit 5 meters away in front of him, ruffling his hair!

The Nord recruits shouted, raised their swords and axes in their hands, learned Ken's movements, and slashed down!

Ken put away his sword, then shook his head slightly, and began to patrol one by one, and corrected their gestures of holding swords/axes/knives/maces, and only after they were corrected one by one, did he say in a loud voice: "Some of the corrections I just made to you are just suggestions and references for you, if you think it will be more effective to hold your weapons in this way, then you can adopt them, but if you feel uncomfortable, you can also play freely, but in short, there is only one sentence... From the heart! ”

"Now, do this with me again!"

Twelve weapons of various colors were raised as Ken's longsword was raised, and then slashed forward!

It's already a bit imposing!

And Su Hao, who also joined this training team, like all the recruits present, wore heavy helmets and armor, held swords and shields, and slashed with all his might! Even the highest commander of the army shared weal and woe with the soldiers under his command and did it himself, so why didn't the soldiers shout loudly and practice hard? As a result, the morale was boosted, and the mood of the recruits became more and more high.

Avril also took a sword, watched Ken's slashing action, and also took a sword to start boring training, and at the same time, functions such as camera, playback and dynamic calculation also began to operate, and 3D models and data processing were established for this simple "slash" action...... The calculations told her that if she raised the angle of the sword by 1.1 degrees, the power could be increased by 5%... This is the closest to the perfect angle of the move, and it is the result of the optimization operation.

……

Soon, three hours passed, and it was already dark, so Ken gave the order and the training was over.

At this time, a recruit sat down, three hours of continuous slashing training tortured his muscles sore, as soon as he heard the order to end the training, the tense nerves suddenly relaxed, the whole person instantly weak and weak, and Ken just "little" taught a lesson, let him understand the truth of military orders, before ordering to assemble and disband.

Su Hao ordered to bury the pot to cook rice and ordered stewed meat! And the set meal size was that each soldier could get 0.5 pounds of beef, which was nearly half a catty, and it was stipulated that it must be eaten! Such a peculiar order was very popular with the soldiers, because they were already hungry, and they often ate fish but very little meat in the former peasant days! As a heroic Nord people, the greatest enjoyment is nothing more than wine and meat, and now half of it can be realized, and I am very satisfied.

Ken was puzzled, because the Nord army had an unwritten rule that only officers were allowed to eat meat, and soldiers could only eat bread and cereal, and at most a little vegetable with oil and water. On the one hand, saving money is the reason for this arrangement, and on the other hand, it is also to motivate them to fight bravely against the enemy in order to win more meritorious deeds and be promoted to the officer class with meat to eat.

And Su Hao replied: "Only by eating meat, they have enough physical strength and morale to withstand several times the training volume of ordinary Nord recruits!" And I want them to have meat every day from now on! ”

Ken said: "Although I do not work in the logistics department, I also know that in the long run, it is not something that our poor finances can support, because I know your ambition not to limit the size of the army to such a point... In the future, we will recruit more soldiers, and it is impossible for everyone to eat meat. ”

Su Hao took a deep look and said, "I once met a military strategist from the Oriental Chinese Kingdom, his name is Sun Tzu, and he once told me such a sentence full of oriental philosophy: 'Soldiers are expensive, but not too expensive'. ”

"If you can train 50 elites with 3 times the normal combat effectiveness, then it is equivalent to you having 150 regular soldiers, and at the same time, you have saved 100 laborers, and the wealth they create cannot be ignored."

Ken listened, thought about it carefully, seemed to be thoughtful, and muttered to himself: "Soldiers are expensive, but not expensive...... Soldiers are expensive, but not expensive......"

On the other hand, Avril is cooking with a new recruit who has mastered cooking skills, in addition to the Nord characteristic barbecue, smoked fish, and vegetable salad, Avril also shows off the culinary skills he learned from the ancient East! Everyone was amazed by a delicacy called fish-flavored shredded pork, and this famous Sichuan side dish was even more beautiful than Avril herself for the Loire people, who had never seen the world before!

"Hell, I haven't eaten this flavored side dish, that vegetable salad, compared to it, it's rubbish!"

"Yes, I feel like my twenty years in Loire have been wasted!"

"I've heard that this Miss Avril used her mysterious Oriental medicine to pull Instructor Ronnie back from the brink of death, and she must be a brilliant surgeon! And now, she's ......"

"She's a skilled chef! Oh my God......"

"Don't forget, yesterday when the pirates attacked, she risked her life to lure the enemy, and even the leader of the pirates fell under her skirt, so I'm sure she's a good opera singer, and she must be the maître d'art of the White Bird Opera House in Sagos!"

"Hey! Don't think she's just an unarmed weak woman, not only did she kill the damned leader of the pirates, but she also killed three pirates with a sword! That is, she is at least a qualified swordsman! Female swordsman! God, I've never met such an all-powerful being......"

"But it's no wonder that since even Chief Su obeys her, she must be an all-round character......

Hearing the discussions of the recruits eating below, Su Hao and Ken looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. Ken asked, "What the hell is this Miss Avril?" Could it be that she really told these soldiers that she was omnipotent? ”

Su could only reply helplessly: "Well, so to speak, what the Calradians can do, she can do, and what the Calradians can't, she can do most of them." ”

Ken exclaimed, "Incredible! I remember that there was an old woman in the nest car, who could give birth to 4 babies in one child, and such fertility can be said to be unprecedented in the history of Calradia... As you just said, can she do it? Or even more? ”

Su Hao was speechless for a moment.

An hour later, Ken gave the order and was ready to drill these Nord boys again, but at this moment, Avril suddenly stopped: "Stop training!" ”

Ken also had inexplicable admiration and trust for Avril at this time, and immediately asked, "What's wrong, Miss Avril?" ”

Avril leaned down and pressed her ears to the ground, listening carefully while amplifying the sound receptivity to the maximum. After a while, she stood up, pointed to the west, and said: "On that side, there is a cavalryman, and it is worth mentioning that the horse he rides is very good, even in this kind of complex forest, it can almost reach a speed of 8 miles per hour, obviously the foot strength is amazing, it is very likely to be a mountain horse." ”

(1 mile = 3.2 miles)

"Oh?" Su Hao is interested now, he has not played the Three Kingdoms game, and he is also very interested in collecting BMW horses, since Avril said that this is a good horse, then this horse must be really good.

After a while, the figure of the knight gradually emerged, and gradually became clear, he was wearing a light cavalry armor, holding a cavalry spear in his hand, his helmet was missing, and there were blood stains on the armor, Su Hao wondered: "Could it be that he broke through from a vicious battle?" ”

Soon, the knight approached Su Hao's small camp, while Dwight mounted his horse and shouted, "Don't come closer, there are traps near the camp!" ”

When the knight heard this, he grabbed the reins and slowed down his horse, and he bypassed the trap and bell under the command of Dwight's gesture, and slowly rode in front of Su Hao, but he had to face not only Su Hao alone, but also a small steel thorn in front of him.

"Excuse me, are you mercenaries?" The knight dismounted, and at the same time hung his spear on his horse to show that he was not hostile.

Su Hao replied, "Yes, who are you?" ”

He replied: "I am the escort cavalry of the Wocheze branch of the Nord Chamber of Commerce, and the caravan I defend has been attacked by a gang of pirates, and now the situation is critical, and I hope that this gentleman, for the sake of our Nord compatriots, will save my caravan from the sword of the pirates!" ”

Su Hao asked, "How many people are in your caravan, and what is the number of Haikou on the other side?" ”

He replied, "There are 28 of us, and there are about 30 of them!" ”

Su Hao looked at him, "Are you sure?" ”

He nodded hurriedly and said, "It's true! ”

Su Hao looked at him with meaningful eyes, and then lightly warned him: "I hope the information you have given is accurate, if I find out that the information you reported is false... Then, when I arrive on the battlefield, I'll have to change the order of my attacks and increase the number of enemies I have! ”

The knight was shocked: changing the order of attack and increasing the number of enemies would not include the caravan in the attack range, and attack the caravan first, and then attack the pirates?

He thought of this, but found that the other party was ready to leave, and he was preparing very quickly, and hurriedly shouted: "I'm sorry, there are 40 people on the other side, 40 people at most!" I swear by the honor of my cavalry guard, it's true! ”

Su Hao nodded and shouted, "Avril stay, the others, follow me!" Also, Mr. Cavalry, please lead the way in front! ”

The man breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay! ”
