Chapter 45: The Ranger

"Boss, you're crazy, you're going to make an army full of archers!" robert, cried out excitedly at Stannis's idea.

Korodov on the other side gritted his teeth and looked at him, clenching his fists and wanting to blow him up with one punch.

After gathering three of his men in the War Hall, Stannis unveiled his great Juche in public, but the response from his men was not as enthusiastic as expected.

Even Bachelor Romon trembled and expressed his doubts, "Your Excellency, although I don't understand military affairs, I have never heard of such an army in my life for so long, our way of fighting has been cavalry charging and infantry advancing from the beginning, and now you are telling us that only the archers in a supporting position can decide the outcome of the war, IMHO, is it a bit too child's play." ”

Stannis was upset to see his genius idea being criticized as worthless by his men, but he could also express his understanding, after all, people of this era still think that face-to-face passionate hand-to-hand combat can change the trend of war, and they do not think that in the future, projectile weapons will eventually replace swords to dominate the battlefield.

Stannis had 100 reasons to justify his archers, but in the end, a thousand words came down to one sentence, "I'm a lord, and I should do whatever I say!"

"Boss, it's too domineering!" Radish was the first to express his dissatisfaction.

Stennis shook his head to make it clear that he was so thick-skinned.

"Korodov, start training those guys tomorrow on how to shoot volleys. The thought of the sound of thousands of arrows in unison obscuring the clouds and the sun gave Stannis goosebumps of excitement.

The chief knight refused, "My lord, I am a knight, how can I be proficient in this kind of thief's skill!"

It seems to be. Stannis thought about it, in the second version of DND, the knight really can't use any ranged weapons, but this setting that looks like a slap on the head was complained about by him from junior high school to work.

"Don't you have to be so brainless? Wouldn't it be a great joy to think that when two knights were charging face to face on the battlefield, and when life and death were at stake, you suddenly pulled out a crossbow from the crotch of your pants and shot him in the face. Stannis enlightened.

"No, the knight should decide the winner with steel. Korodov righteously refused.

It seems that this guy is poisoned by chivalry, and Stannis can only find another candidate to train his troops, and then, his eyes fall on Robert, this guy has no skin and no face all day long, he shouldn't have such a strong sense of honor, right?

Robert saw his intentions, and hurriedly waved his hand to refuse, "Boss, I definitely can't, although I know how to shoot arrows with a bow, but that's limited to it, the hit rate is not as high as mine in bed." ”

As soon as he gets down to business, none of these guys around him are reliable! Stannis can't wait to kick all three guys out in front of him right now.

They also seemed to see this, and Radish hurriedly said, "However, boss, I can recommend a personal choice to you, and you are satisfied!"

"Who?" his words succeeded in arousing the curiosity of the lord.

"That hunter Kanye!"

Kanye Stennis remembered the black man, who still remembered the last time he won the archery competition, and the archers who were good at it yesterday were convinced of him, was he really so good?

"But he's just a hunter, so he doesn't know much about how to train troops, right?" he questioned, after all, he specialized in the arts.

"So you're lucky, boss, that guy wasn't a hunter before, not even a local, he came from the primeval rainforest in the south, a serious jungle ranger, and it is said that he also served as the captain of the archers in the silver city, like a fake professional soldier!"

"That's amazing!" Stannis snickered, and he decided to hurry up and meet him.

"Let's go, let's go now!" he immediately patted his head and decided.

But Robert was still dragging him back, "No, boss, you haven't eaten lunch yet! ”

"No, you and Korodov have to go with me, because there's a Plan B that you need to help with it. Stannis snapped his fingers in his chest.

A few hours later, the gang appeared at the door of a hunter's hut.

After crossing the Konpi River, they wandered around the Black Forest for a long time, and finally found this remote corner where a hunter named Kanye lived, guided by a woodcutter.

The thick foliage is stacked on top of each other so that no ray of sunlight can pass through, hence the name of the Black Forest.

"Is this the place?" asked Stannis, holding up his horsewhip and pointing to the room.

"We don't know, Your Excellency?" replied Maester Romon earnestly.

"I don't know what you're doing here, didn't you go to the mill to collect the money!" Stannis didn't even notice why the old man had come in during the trip.

Then a deep baritone voice came from the room, "Who's coming?

Stannis knew to be in the right place, because this kind of voice and tone sounded like a hidden master.

He hurriedly turned over and dismounted, preparing for Corporal Lixian to enter in person, this kind of commoner must be moved to tears when he sees the lord driving in person.

"Boss, shall we go in together, too?" asked Radish as he pointed to himself and the chief knight.

Stannis shook his head, most of the role of a guy like this five big and three thick on the stage is to play the role of the second brother and the third brother who sulk outside the house.

"I'll go to Form Plan A first, and if it doesn't work, I'll have your turn to appear. After Stannis finished his assignment, he walked into the cabin alone.

There was no fire in the room, it was pitch black, and he searched for a long time without finding the person who had just spoken.

"I'm here. A row of white lit up in the darkness, and it was Kanye speaking with his mouth open.

Stanis forgot about the racial talent of the Negro, he groped his way over and began to bow, "Mr. Jiuwen's name, I am here, I would like to ...... Hey, what about people? I can't find it again. ”

An orange-red flame lit up in the darkness, illuminating the unpleasant face of the owner of the house.

Stannis, who was saluting with his back to him, quickly turned around, "So you're here." He said a little embarrassed.

The man, Kanye, did not speak, he touched his inflated cheeks and looked at the man who had entered his house without permission with eyes as sharp as an eagle.

"Let me introduce myself first, my name is Stannis, you may have heard of this name, yes, I am the lord!"

The other party still didn't speak.

"I'm here to hire you as an instructor and train my soldiers to use arrows. ”

No reply.

"As for the salary and benefits, the weekly salary is 3 gold coins, room and board are all-inclusive, and a two-month year-end bonus will be issued at the end of the year, as well as incentive clauses, and the contract will be signed once a year. ”

......

Stannis found out that he was there alone until now, and he kept talking, but the other party did not respond.

In the end, he also ran out of words, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.

"You don't look like a local. With nothing to say, he could only say hello.

"It's hard to tell, isn't it?" Kanye pointed to his skin color with a sarcastic tone.

Then the hunter finally spoke, "If you want someone to teach your men how to kill, then please go back." ”

Stannis hurriedly said: "What, what are you not satisfied with? Can we still talk about the conditions? How about organizing and solving the marriage problem?"

The hunter shook his head, and suddenly, he raised his head, his eyes flashing as terrifying as a beast, "I killed more than a hundred people when I was a ranger, how many have you killed?"

Stannis was shocked when he asked this question, he really had never thought about such a thing, at least it was not on his agenda.

Kanye read the answer from his eyes, "Come back to me after you have killed the first man, my lord, and now, please come back." ”

Stannis walked out of the room with a look of great benefit, and the three people who had been waiting for a long time hurriedly rushed up.

"How's it going, Your Excellency?" said Maester Romon cautiously.

The lord breathed a sigh of relief, and he gestured to the two thugs, "Execute Plan B." ”

Robert and Korodov hurriedly rolled up their sleeves and walked into the cabin.

After a chaotic cacophony of tables and chairs falling to the ground and dishes shattering, the two guys walked out carrying Kanye, who had already fainted.

"Didn't kill you?" asked Stannis.

"Don't worry, boss! I punched the big man and the big guy alone, and the guy who was still pretending to be deep fainted. Radish proudly showed his merits.

Stannis also gave them a thumbs up, "Well done, add chicken legs to you at night, now bring him back to my castle, this time, he can't train my troops without training, ...... him"

With that, a sinister smile flowed from his face.
