It's raining non-stop outside, but the tavern is bustling with activity.

The tavern was outside the barracks, and it was specially opened for these military men who had nothing to do all day. The tavern owner is said to have some relationship with the commander of the city guard, but no one dares to make trouble.

It rained for two days in a row, and the school grounds were muddy and unable to train, so William simply gave the recruits a vacation. Ke Mingde seized the opportunity and invited William to drink with the two instructors of the First Banner, and also brought Pluto, the little brother. William gave him face and gladly agreed.

"You don't know, when Battalion Commander William was in the border army, he was majestic, known as the magic eye William, and his one-handed archery skills were unmatched......"

After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere became lively, and an instructor spoke.

"No less than a hundred people died under the battalion commander's arrows, and if it weren't for Luke that dog day, we would have ...... long ago" another instructor grumbled.

"Okay, don't mention the past. William's face stiffened, "Isn't life better now than it was then? There is wine and meat all day long, and there is no need to go to the battlefield!"

"Okay, don't say it...... Newton, I'm afraid you don't know, Camp Commander William's archery skills, but he has been praised by His Majesty the King......"

"How can it be so exaggerated, I am just a knight, no matter how good my archery skills are, I can't stand a few ...... on the battlefield" William waved his hand and said humbly.

"It's all Luke's dog, or you'd be a Grand Knight by now......"

Ke Mingde saw that William was displeased, and hurriedly said a few words to ease the atmosphere.

Pluto was young and couldn't wait to ask a question, and also said what Ke Mingde wanted to ask.

"Battalion commander, what are the knights and big knights you just mentioned?"

"You have also practiced the knight's secret method, and after the knight's secret method is refined, you will become a knight. Presumably with ordinary people, the knight's strength, physical strength, and speed are stronger, and his body is stronger, and one person can fight two or three, and if you practice swordsmanship, ten people can't beat you. ”

"I was born as a hunter, I have practiced archery since I was a child, a fifty-pound bow can shoot thirty arrows in a row, and later I learned the secret method of knights, and a fifty-pound bow can shoot for a day. ”

"Although the knight is powerful, but in the end he is still an ordinary person, if he becomes a great knight, it will be even more powerful, infinitely powerful, swift as the wind, recover very quickly after injury, almost never get sick, and the life span can be extended, if nothing else, the great knight can live to be more than a hundred years old. The commander of our Yorktown regiment is a great knight. As he spoke, William's eyes showed yearning.

"So powerful!" Ke Mingde was surprised, he was immune to all diseases and prolonged his life, which could not be exchanged for wealth and power.

"So how do you become a Grand Knight?"

"It's hard! it's too hard!" William shook his head, "Becoming a knight doesn't necessarily require a knight's secret method, you can do it with a long and hard workout, the knight's secret method just makes it easier and easier to ......"

“...... However, if you want to become a great knight, you must advance the knight's secret method. ”

"Where can I get the Advanced Secret Method?"

"The advanced secret methods are all in the hands of the nobles, and they are the foundation of their existence, and we civilians basically can't get it......"

"If you want to get the advanced secret method, unless you become their retainer, even then, you can only get it by your sons......"

"Or, if you make a great contribution, His Majesty the King will naturally give you an advanced secret method. ”

"In addition, there is another way, with excellent physical qualifications, you can only rely on the knight's secret method to refine into a great knight, and if you are extremely talented, you can also create your own advanced secret method......"

......

With plenty of wine and food, the guests and hosts were happy, and Ke Mingde also learned a lot about the situation through the three veterans.

Knights are the limit of ordinary humans, and the great knights have physical qualities that exceed the limits of the human body, and their lifespan can reach a hundred years.

There are also silver knights above the big knights, William doesn't know how strong the silver knights are, the legendary novels say that they can defeat a thousand, and their lifespan can reach one hundred and fifty years old, and there are only four silver knights in the entire Plantagenet Kingdom.

The nobles not only mastered the precious knightly advanced secret method, but also mastered the mysterious magic, if a folk mage is found, the king will not be stingy with rewards, but the magic secret book is also extremely precious among the nobles, only the great nobles who have been inherited for hundreds of years have.

Ke Mingde was very happy, the secret method passed down from the gods was completely stored in his brain, and the future was limitless.

A month of training was fleeting, and in addition to Ke Mingde, there were three more advanced knights, including Pluto.

The recruits were divided into various branches of the army according to their level, and four knights, including Ke Mingde, were assigned to the cavalry battalion, and William also took the opportunity to make a small fortune.

William took Ke Mingde and a few people to the garrison of the cavalry battalion, and Ke Mingde learned that William was the deputy commander of the cavalry battalion.

According to the military system of the kingdom, a team of 10 people, with a captain, a flag of 50 people, a flag commander, a deputy flag commander, a battalion of 300 people, a battalion commander, two deputy battalion commanders, and a supervising army, a regiment with more than 1,500 people, a regiment commander, two deputy regiment commanders, and a logistics office, a military supervisor, and a military police, to the brigade level, is in charge of the headquarters, which is composed of the commander, the deputy commander, the personnel sent by the government of the garrison, and the king's cronies.

The cavalry battalion had two deputy commanders, one in charge of logistics and the other in charge of William, who managed military merit and discipline.

After registering, a veteran of William's platoon took a few recruits to familiarize themselves with the environment.

The veteran's name is Wilson, and he was the instructor at Komingde's recruit training.

The cavalry battalion is more than a little stronger than the recruit battalion, and the dormitory for four people can also go outside to live, and the training is one day on five days, and the training is only half a day each time, and the treatment is good, no wonder the threshold is high.

Although the establishment is one battalion, the cavalry battalion has only two banners and less than 100 people, a dozen horsemen, and more than 40 horses. This shows that armaments are in ruins.

Practicing guidance every day, practicing swordsmanship and marksmanship, and practicing riding every five days, no silk bamboo mess, no case work, Ke Mingde had a very comfortable life, but Pluto couldn't resist the temptation, under the leadership of the veterans of the cavalry battalion, he went to the city all day long to spend all day drinking, so unhappy, and spent all his money in a few days.

After half a month like this, Ke Mingde was a little worried, although he practiced the guidance technique diligently in the past few days, he felt that there was no progress, so he had no choice but to ask the deputy battalion commander William for advice.

William, as the deputy battalion commander, is worth a lot of money, so he naturally does not live in the barracks like ordinary soldiers, but also has real estate in York, and only shows himself in the barracks every time he trains, and the head of the cavalry regiment, Ke Mingde, has not seen it so far.

Another banquet, William said:

"Practicing the Knight's Secret Technique has no effect, probably because there is no introduction, no enlightenment, you are obviously not like this. ”

"It's also possible that you've reached the limit, and naturally it won't work, just like me, you can only continue to progress if you get the advanced secret method, do you think you've practiced to the limit?"

"Naturally not!" Ke Mingde shook his head decisively, although he said that he was making rapid progress, he was not beyond the scope of ordinary people.

"Then there's only one reason left, Newton!" he said, "Have you eaten well lately?"

"Although the food in the barracks is not so good, it is still full. ”

"But there's no meat to eat in the barracks!" said William, draining his glass of beer and motioning for another drink.

"If you don't eat well, you can't get results!"

Ke Mingde suddenly realized that the guidance technique is not to cultivate immortals and practice qi, but can only obtain energy from eating, although the barracks are full, they are all rice and noodles and other things, even when they are on the earth, those who are keen on fitness also need to supplement protein powder or something.

After drinking, Kommid walked to the city of York, ready to buy some meat.

Speaking of which, this is his first time in Yorktown.
