Ke Mingde followed the group, carrying his backpack with a change of clothes, including the six mineral water bottles that had accompanied him all the way, gasoline had been poured out, filled with fried peanuts, which had both salt and calories, and were excellent food for dry food and snacks. The futon was rolled up and tied to the upper part of the backpack with a rope, the long sword was rolled in the futon, and the dagger was carried close to the body.

There were fifty or sixty men in the procession, the older ones with gray hair, the younger ones no more than twelve or thirteen years old, and at the head were five soldiers, dressed in black and armor, wearing swords, and one of them riding a horse, and his clothes were a little more ornate than the rest of the soldiers.

"Hurry up, we must get to Yorktown before dark, or everyone will not have dinner!" shouted the leader.

Yorktown, located in the north-west of Sweetwater, is the capital of Wisenna, the most prosperous and only city in Wisenna. The Plantagenet Kingdom was divided into two levels of administration, divided into "provinces" and "lords", with officials appointed by the king as "governors" and "lords" of the provinces, and then local autonomy and general rule by local nobles. Sweetwater, for example, belongs to the Venason Realm of Tricari Province and is governed by Baron Henry.

It was just dark, and the group rushed to the barracks east of York, the food in the barracks was obviously not as good as Abel's, but it was enough to fill the stomach.

After a night's rest, just after dawn the next day, the drums began to sound tom, and a group of recruits under the command of several officers came to the school grounds, barely standing in a queue, and Ke Mingde estimated that there were about two hundred people.

An officer stood in front of them, tall and strong, about thirty or forty years old.

"Recruits, I'm your instructor for the next month, William!"

"During this month, my mission is to turn you from farmers into soldiers!"

"If any of you are disobedient, you will not be able to get along with me, and you will be beaten!"

After some reprimands and establishing his majesty, Instructor William explained the rules, got up at dawn every day, had breakfast to practice marksmanship, swordsmanship, and archery, and had lunch to practice knightly secrets.

"I want to tell you, after a month, you will be assigned to the army, the most ordinary soldiers, can only get five silver coins a month, if you can be selected as an archer or scout, seven silver coins a month, if you can practice the secret method of knighthood, you can be selected as a cavalry, not only can you get ten silver coins, you can eat better than others, and most importantly, you can also become an officer, and you will not have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of your life!"

"After the knight's secret method is refined, the strength will increase a lot, I have a log behind me, weighing more than two hundred pounds, and being able to carry it around the school field proves that you have practiced the knight's secret method!"

Subsequently, William divided the recruits into four flags, each with about fifty people, and each flag arranged two veterans as instructors, and Ke Mingde was assigned to the first flag. Under the leadership of the instructors, each person received a set of black military uniforms, including a military cap, a shirt, pants, military boots, and a belt.

After breakfast, I changed into a military uniform, practiced parade under the leadership of the coach, learned the command method of military trumpets, drums, and gongs, and also briefly understood the army establishment of the Plantagenet Kingdom.

The kingdom is a team of ten people, five teams are one flag, five flags are one battalion, five battalions are one regiment, and five regiments are one brigade. And the garrison of the whole of York City was only a disgruntled regiment.

In the afternoon, the instructor taught the knight's secret method, and Ke Mingde realized that this so-called knight's secret method was just a simplified version of the first part of the channeling technique, and the breathing method was also very rudimentary.

In Sweetwater Town for half a month, Ke Mingde practiced hard every day, only feeling that he was full of energy every day and had endless strength all over his body, so he took advantage of the rest time to walk to the log, hugged the middle with both hands, and hugged him with all his strength.

I just learned the knight's secret method today, and I can complete these things, isn't it too showy? However, there doesn't seem to be any secret to the knight's secret method, and the recruits who have just entered the barracks can learn it, and it must be a big deal......

Thinking of this, Ke Mingde used both hands to lift the log above his head, put it on his shoulders, took a big stride, and walked around the school field.

Ke Mingde had barely taken a few steps when someone noticed him.

"Look! the man is up!"

Many people have tried to lift logs, and everyone knows how heavy this log is.

"He's already walked half a lap, and his strength is really great!"

"He's sure he's practiced knightly secrets before!"

"Lao Tzu has practiced before, if you stick to it, you can lift it now!"

There was a lot of talk among the people, some envious, some jealous, and some regretful.

The school field is slightly larger than a standard football field, five or six hundred meters away, and at this time Ke Mingde has already walked halfway, only feeling as if he is carrying a mountain, struggling to walk, panting heavily, suddenly remembering something, closing his mouth, and adjusting his breathing according to the way recorded in the breathing method.

One step at a time, it became more and more difficult, more and more tired, and finally, he leaned back hard, and as soon as his hand was released, the log fell into the dirt, smashing out a cloud of dust and mist, and he came to the end.

"Oh my God! He's at the finish line!"

"It's amazing to be able to get ten silver coins a month!"

......

Ke Mingde made it to the log, relaxed slightly, opened his mouth and gasped for breath, closed his mouth again, and breathed according to the breathing method. The breathing method played a great role just now, and he remembered that not only can he use the breathing method when practicing guidance and meditation, but also when walking, sitting, and lying down, and he should turn it into his own instinct.

A hand reached out in front of his eyes, rough and wide, Ke Mingde looked up, this person was William, the chief instructor of the recruits.

"Don't sit, stand up and take two steps. ”

Ke Mingde took his hand and stood up.

"Very well, what's your name?" asked William.

"Komünd Isaac Newton"

"Newton, from now on, you are the first flag commander, train hard, and come to me if you have difficulties. With that, William turned to leave.

Ke Mingde was very satisfied with this result, and stood out from the 200 people and served as the flag commander, which was remembered by William, the boss of the new barracks. The rest of the recruits admired him, and several instructors looked at him differently.

At the beginning of the second day, the instructor issued them long guns to practice marksmanship.

The thickness of the spear duck egg, more than two meters long, the wooden barrel, the iron spear head, the spear head is less than 20 centimeters long, cone-shaped, has no blade, and can only be used for stabbing.

There are not many methods taught by the instructors, only thrusts and blocks, but they are particularly complicated to practice.

Stand in a lunge before the lunge, with the left foot in front of the right foot and the right foot behind, the spear is placed on the right side, and when assassinating, the right hind foot exerts force, and the left foot steps forward, while pushing the gun with both hands, aiming at the target's chest and abdomen. There are dolls made of straw on the school field, Ke Mingde stabbed them a few times, felt that it was not difficult, and secretly targeted the throat of the puppet, but he could only hit one or two out of ten, Ke Mingde felt that it also took skill to stab the target with a spear.

Blocking is more complex than Spikes, with different types of block stabs and block slashes, and attacks from different directions are blocked in different ways.

After the basic movements were handed over, the instructor asked the two to practice in teams, Ke Mingde's partner was a young man named Pluto, nineteen years old, from Pitz Town, but he was very self-motivated, and Ke Mingde concentrated on sparring, not complaining about hardship or tiredness.

"Brother Ke Mingde, you are really powerful, you react so quickly, you have a lot of strength, and your stabbing is accurate. Pluto wiped his sweat and said.

"Haha! You can do it if you practice hard!" Ke Mingde said with a smile, and he was secretly surprised in his heart, he had been practicing for the past few days, and he was not aware of his progress.

In the afternoon, more than 200 people were practicing the knight's secret method together, Ke Mingde didn't want to expose his secret book, so he had to practice the knight's secret method with the crowd, and only the breathing method was practiced according to his mastery.

When it was dark, when everyone else was resting, entertaining, bragging, and playing, Ke Mingde went to the shade of the school field alone to practice the guidance technique under the pretext of practicing the secret method of knighthood, and everyone did not know the truth, and admired Ke Mingde's hard work, and his partner Pluto was deeply affected and practiced alone every day.

In this way, Ke Mingde practiced martial arts during the day and meditation at night, concentrating and having fun!
