Chapter 40: Standing and Resting (Seeking Recommendation Collection)

The text of the Holy Light Continent is different from any of the Donner's cognitions, it is not an alphabet, nor is it a square word, but it seems to be a hieroglyphic character culture.

This kind of writing appeared before the Bible, and since the tribal era, with the gradual simplification of history, it has evolved into what it is today, and Donner does not know how the people of this world have mastered this strange writing.

However, there are always traces of changes in everything, and the same is true for words and language, as long as you grasp the regular changes in them, it is still relatively easy to identify.

This is also the kind of writing and language that Donner can learn in a year in the mines, following the young troubadours who have died.

Donner used charcoal to write a word on the board, from the beginning, the turn to the end, all of which were explained in detail, and the students below followed the pen on the sand table against the board.

Although the students' handwriting was crooked and difficult to read, Donner did not skimp on his appreciation, and the children's enthusiasm was too strong to speak at this time.

Learn a word, Donner will say this word, the word composed of daily life, but he didn't elaborate, just mentioned it slightly, after all, he can't chew it too much, and it can make the children have a little impression.

After learning five words in an hour, and after a half-hour break, the children began to teach arithmetic.

In arithmetic class, the Donner taught them Arabic numerals. It's not that Donner doesn't know how to calculate with runic numbers, but Arabic numerals, which are better than runic numbers in terms of calculation, identification, strokes, and carry arrangement.

Of course, this also takes into account Donner's calculation habits, but in fact, it is more important to calculate the amount of calculation.

The arithmetic of the Holy Light Continent is estimated to involve quadratic equations at most, and this level of operation can be calculated very well with rune numbers.

But when more complex calculations and huge quantities appear in the future, it is estimated that this kind of cumbersome rune number can make people's heads explode.

In contrast, using Arabic numerals is much more convenient and simpler.

From one to ten, after one lesson, Donner let the children go and told them to come back to class by this time tomorrow.

Looking at the scattered students, Donner touched his chin and wondered if he should have some entertainment, such as table tennis, oh this is not good, and neither is the blue ball, which cannot be done with the current technology.

However, badminton and football seem to be able to be done, and the children of Crescent Island should have all-round development of intelligence, morality and physique!

In the afternoon, Downer gathered the island's pirates.

It was impossible for Allen's men to obey his orders, and most of Ferdy and Hans had left for Manhill Harbor, leaving only a few on the island, so that together with the slaves who followed Donner, there were thirty-three men in all.

In the nearly two months since Willy's death, Donner has been tossing and turning around the island, not only creating a Christmas Eve bonfire dinner, but also firing porcelain.

The benefits brought to the Donner seem to have reached its highest point on the island, overshadowing anyone, including Jasmine.

The pirates had no doubts about Donner's orders and followed them to the beach to the east.

Ever since the naval battle, when he had taken some of his powers, Donner had intended to train the pirates militarily, especially after Theodore's verbal threats.

After coming to this world for so long, Downer has also experienced two battles, one on land and one on sea.

In his opinion, the armed battles in this world are no different from the armed battles caused by the disputes in his village.

There is no organization, no discipline, almost all personal enthusiasm and bravery.

And Donner doesn't want that kind of hot-blooded warrior who dares to take on the dragon alone for the sake of glory and profit, wearing leather armor and resisting a big sword, he wants a group of teams that are disciplined, prohibited, and know how to work as a team.

According to people's social attributes, the strength of the team is far greater than the strength of the individual most of the time, and this is especially true on the battlefield.

The pirates were never trained, and their fighting instincts came from the temptation of profit and the threat of life.

Under the pressure of survival, they know how to use the scimitar in their hands to kill the enemy and kill the opponent to save themselves, but they often do not cooperate with the team.

From the two battles that Downer has experienced, it is obvious that they are almost separate and messy.

Therefore, it should be a good choice to train a group of lazy and wild pirates into a team that understands organizational discipline and teamwork, and to move the PLA to improve it according to the current environment.

Donner divided the thirty-three into three teams, each of which elected a captain, and the captains from the first to the third teams were Mike, Matthew, and Gerry.

Donner ordered them to form three columns in order of tallness and shortness, with the captain standing at the front.

The team was too bent to look at it, and Donner had no choice but to draw three straight lines on the beach, each drawing eleven points and letting each pirate stand on the point.

Then patiently teach them the posture of standing upright and resting, and Donner promises that the team that stands up straight and best will have steaks and grilled fish for dinner, and whichever team fails to stand up well will be punished by the whole team.

Under the temptation of good food, the effect is still very significant, at least no one complains anymore.

After standing for half an hour for the first time, some of the pirates couldn't stand it and couldn't help but sway from side to side, and Donner naturally minus this pirate and their entire team of meat steaks.

This made the other two teams happy, because they couldn't take it anymore, and the pirate was met with the angry eyes of the whole team.

This is what Donner wants, and he wants them to know how to share honor from now on, and to understand what it means to order and prohibit, and to command like a mountain.

The second time they stood for an hour, the third time for two hours, and the pirates began to get used to it.

In short, after a short break, Donner taught them a whole afternoon before they had a general understanding.

When it was time for dinner, Donner also asked them to line up and come forward one by one to receive the meal, and they were not allowed to rush and disrupt the order.

Anyway, whether it is training or life, Downer requires them, from now on, they are required to stand in a straight line, the team is in a straight line at all times, and everything must be lined up......

Once they had begun to understand what discipline was, Donner moved on to the next step and began to ask them to walk the right way.

The pirates began to lose sight of the left and right, so Donner told them to take off their right shoes, telling them that the left foot was the left foot and the bare foot was the right foot.

Walk the right step, kick with the right foot, swing with the left hand, walk in unison, and then the long snake formation comes out like this, when shouting and standing, the people behind can't stop their feet, and they also hit the whole team staggering, chaotic, and can't bear to look directly.

Donner was also quite patient, and made up his mind to train the pirates to understand what uniformity meant.
