Ron and Merial stood on the high platform, looking at the soldiers running on the Great Plains.

According to Kiru's report, after this period of training, the overall quality of these soldiers has improved a lot, and there is no problem in running down seven or eight thousand meters, but long-distance racing and running at a constant speed are two completely different concepts, and Ron immediately saw the gap between these soldiers.

At the front of the team, which can be called the first group, only a dozen soldiers rose up sporadically, and nearly a hundred soldiers of the large army followed behind at a considerable distance, and as for the soldiers in the back, they were all scattered, and there was still a considerable distance from the large army. If there are no accidents, the qualifications of the pro-guard team are not related to these soldiers.

"Overall it was good, a little bit faster than I thought it would be. Ron smiled, "If you use Dou Qi, their speed can be increased even more." ”

"Let's go down and prepare for the second test. ”

Ron leaped from the boulder and came to the riverbank. Soon, the soldier who ran first came in front of Ron.

However, this soldier was not the first group to rush to the front, but a soldier in the second group, and it was not until the last kilometer that this soldier began to accelerate and rushed to the first position, which made Ron can't help but look sideways.

"The second test was from where I was standing and going backwards to where I had my weapon. ”

"Thank you, my lord, I ...... I'll take a break first. ”

To Ron's surprise, the soldier didn't immediately jump into the second race, but walked slowly up and down the riverbank with his hands on his waist.

This is undoubtedly the best way to rest to protect your body after a long-distance run, Ron can't help but look at this soldier with admiration, if it were in normal times, such a soldier would definitely be lost among many soldiers, but this selection has selected such a very good talent.

"What's your name?" Ron couldn't help but ask.

"My name, my name is Galen. "The soldier was dressed in rough clothes and gave his name.

"Galen?" Ron's eyebrows twitched slightly, and his mind couldn't help but think of a mission in a game in the previous life, Ron took a closer look, this soldier's short yellow hair, coupled with a fairly strong physique, did have a "Galen" look.

Just as Ron and Galen were talking, the other soldiers behind also ran to the finish line one after another, and with these soldiers arrived, as well as Nile who arrived in a carriage.

"My lord, I have everything you want. Nile said respectfully to the two commanders.

"Ron, is this?" Meria asked, somewhat surprised.

"Salt water. These are the soldiers of our army, this level of vigorous exercise, a little salt water, is good for the body, if Nile is not mistaken, these two barrels, one bucket is salt water, and the other barrel is a wooden cup for drinking. Ron laughed, "But these salt waters, they can't be drunk until they have done the second test." ”

As soon as they heard that it was salt water, the eyes of the soldiers resting on the side glowed green, and under Ron's gaze, these soldiers, who had just breathed two breaths, immediately rushed into the river.

Nile looked at the soldiers who were walking slowly forward against the current with some envy, although these people are still ordinary soldiers or low-level non-commissioned officers, but once they become the lord's personal guards, their status is immediately different, but unfortunately they have no motivation to compete with them, otherwise, this kind of invulnerable armor, which soldier doesn't like it?

Ron focused on Galen, a young man who was even younger than he looked, and took a break after the others entered the water, but instead of going straight into the water from where Ron was standing, he went backwards on the shore, ran a run, and jumped straight into the water.

With the help of the inertia when rushing down, Galen accelerated directly in the water, and soon caught up with the soldiers in front and completed the overtake.

"This warrior is good. Merial couldn't help but admire.

Ron nodded, on the battlefield, sometimes the bravest warrior may not be the final victor, but the smart, brainy soldier will definitely survive to the end. What Bol City needs now is the kind of warrior who can adapt to the situation.

Although the water of the Liuye River is not turbulent, it is not a small test for these soldiers who have just experienced long-distance running. The fatigue reaction of the muscles in the body is not felt in the Great Plains, and when their calves enter the river, it is like turning off the lead, and some soldiers who were able to barely move forward in advance are now standing directly in place, so as to maintain the balance of their bodies and not be swept away by the current.

"These people may not have a chance. Ron whispered.

His detection arrangement has its own reason, these soldiers standing in the water, if they can rely on their own will, grit their teeth and stick to the past, there is still the possibility of reaching the end, once they stop in place, the impact of the river will continue to consume their physical strength. In the first long-distance running, if you can't evenly distribute your physical strength, this situation will definitely occur.

Ron's design intentions are actually somewhat similar to the triathlon in the previous life, but unfortunately there is no such thing as a bicycle in this world, and if you ride a horse, the physically exhausted soldier is at risk of falling off the horse.

Only soldiers who are good at using their brains and have a strong will are the purpose of Ron's selection this time, otherwise purely in terms of combat effectiveness, these soldiers have already entered the passing line.

As Ron expected, Galen was the first soldier to reach the finish line, and when he dragged his tired body to the shore, he was no longer as calm as before, kneeling on the shore and gasping for air.

Ron personally took a large glass of salt water and walked up to Galen, and the young warrior was not polite and took a big gulp.

"Congratulations, you're the captain of this guard. Ron patted Galen on the shoulder, not hiding his admiration.

One after another, some soldiers completed the final assessment, and many of the running results came from behind the fighters, and overtook the soldiers in front of them who were competing with the current in the river, and some soldiers were washed down by the river and reluctantly withdrew from the competition.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, there was a clear sound of horses' hooves from the direction of Boer City, and Planck rode his war horse and sprinted all the way towards Ron and them.

"Why is Planck here?" Meria was surprised.

"I don't know if there's something going on in the city. Ron took a deep breath, "Let's see what he has to say." ”

The horses were sprinting fast across the plains, and in a few moments Planck was on the banks of the Willow River.

"My lord, something is wrong. Planck flipped off his horse in some anxiety and nearly fell as he dismounted.

"What's the matter, say it slowly. ”

Planck gasped twice, "There are officers coming down from above, and quite a few soldiers with them. ”
