"I don't want to practice knightly swords, I want to practice double swords. Bert stared into his father's eyes and said word for word.

"What's so good about double swords, they are so short in a knight's charge that someone stabbed you to death with a knight's gun before you could make a move. "Although Celtic is a down-and-out knight, he still insists on the supremacy of knightly honor in his mind, and he doesn't have much affection for the dual swords, a weapon used on land in close quarters. After all, the dual swords pay more attention to agility, and the enemy's attacks are more to dodge with dexterity, rather than the knight's charge to fight for life.

"I don't go to the battlefield to fight them, I can learn magic, and then stealthily go over and assassinate their boss, and solve it with one blow...... Ahh In the eyes of the arrogant knight, the assassination is completely a subordinate method, and the face-to-face collision of iron and blood is the main color of the battlefield.

"You can learn the double sword, but you have to remember that we are knights and nobles! If you dare to learn those filthy thieves, you don't call me Daddy!" Faced with his father's vicious threat, little Bert had no choice but to give up this great idea.

"You can join the infantry when you go to serve in the army, preferably in the Praetorian Guard or the heavy infantry. Ahh Bert naturally understood why his father did not have a good opinion of the heavy infantry, because on the battlefield, the invincible cavalry was most afraid of the heavy infantry that formed the battle formation. The nearly two-meter-long steel shield was carried by two infantry men covered in pure steel cast plate armor, and there was a square hole at the height of one person, and a four-meter-long pure steel spear protruded from the hole. Rendered the two-meter-long knight's spear useless. The heavily armored soldiers that make up the battle formation are a group of steel behemoths covered in thorns. If hoplites are steel spears that walk on the battlefield, hoplites are steel shields on the battlefield.

Bert wasn't too interested in the Praetorian Guards, after all, how boring it was to stand guard every day, although the little boy felt that life was precious, and the days of fighting every day were too dangerous. But it's also quite boring to be there every day to watch the door to others. In fact, what Bert didn't tell his father was that his goal in life was to become a ranger who helped the strong and the weak. But this oily profession may not be supported by the knight's father, who is the "target".

Since my father is not against it, let's leave it at that. So on a sunny day, Bert officially said goodbye to the knighthood profession. Because a dual-wielding swordsman is not as good as a single-wielding two-handed swordsman or hoplite, a dual-wielding swordsman requires the highest agility. Therefore, Bert's armor is only the most ordinary cloth armor, which is also good news for the down-and-out knight family who are not wealthy themselves. Bert sometimes wondered if he really listened to his father and became a knight, according to the country's requirements for conscription. All knights bring their own mounts and equipment, so they can't ride the little donkey in the village and carry a bamboo pole to the battlefield, right?

Now another problem in front of us is that Celtic is not good at the attack path of the double short sword, and the knight's sword is mainly used by thorns because the sides are not bladed. The double short sword is split on both sides, and because the blade is relatively short, the stab is the least commonly used way. The mainstream method of double short sword is slightly similar to that of a knife, mainly slashing and picking, and the damage behind the close is more powerful than the long-range damage, and the stab is used when it is not close. Fortunately, although Celtic is a seemingly unreliable father, his attainments in martial arts are still quite deep.

Within a few days, Celtic had developed a method of using a double short sword that was more like a modified knight's stabbing sword. He took Stauffen's best wine and talked to the village blacksmith for a day, and made two double short swords for Bert. Although these two swords are said to be double swords, they can be put together to form a two-handed broadsword. At the same time, the blade of the sword was lengthened, from the original 30 cm to 50 cm, and when the distance was long, it attacked in the way of a two-handed sword, mainly stabbing and slashing, and broke the hilt close to the back to become two one-handed swords. Because they need to be able to fit together, these two swords can't be cut on both sides, so Bert's skills are very demanding. However, since the weight of the two swords is twice as heavy as before, you can still use the block method to deal with spear spike attacks.

As a knight, Celtic naturally knew the weakness of the knights very well. For the knight, in a one-on-one situation, the knight's dash causes the most damage, and it is also the most flawed at this time. He once encountered the camel cavalry of the Carthage Desert Empire when he was serving in the army, and his knight's spear was cut off by the camel cavalry's thick-backed knife, leaving him in a completely defenseless state, if it weren't for the fact that his years of combat experience allowed him to dodge the second blow of the camel cavalry at the last moment, it is estimated that he would have become a speck of dust in the desert at that time. Celtic, who crawled back from the brink of death, knew very well that in fact, at that moment, the greatest damage to him was not that there was no weapon to use, because after all, there was a shield to block, and there was a time when the knight's sword could be drawn. But the knight's spear in the full-speed charge was cut off, which was very shocking for any knight, the knight's staggered time was calculated in centimeters, just a split second, the opponent's knife could be slashed backhand in an instant after cutting the knight's spear, and the knight who reacted a little slower would be in a different place.

Celtic, who had suffered a lot, was not only bored but very interested in this way of fighting, so he focused on practicing Bert's attack accuracy when teaching Bert's martial arts, and he did not allow Bert to swing his weapon around like a big windmill, which not only wasted physical strength, but also caused limited damage to the enemy. Celtic's special practice method is simple and simple, but it is difficult to actually put it into practice. It's about cutting mosquitoes.

"Chop...... Cutting mosquitoes??" When he heard his father's words, Bert looked confused, and the double swords in his hands that had just been made of pure steel fell to the ground.

"That's right, and it's not just about cutting mosquitoes, you have to do it with a load. "Oh my God, my old fellow, are you kidding?" The twin swords made of pure steel were a problem for a teenage boy to wield, and he needed to be slashed with weights. It can be seen that Bert's next life will not be easy.

"Who's your old fellow!Your dad and I'm still young!Less nonsense!Go and cut it!" Little Bert, who had just slipped his head, was hit in the head again. Bert touched his head and muttered, "Just go, you won't be able to see if you hit it anyway." "If I go to bed at night and there are mosquitoes at home, you can go and cut them for me all night." Bert, who had just walked out of the house, said faintly behind him.

The village of Minnow is located in the temperate zone, and there is a large forest next to the village, how to cut down this mosquito.

For several years after that, Minoan became the only mosquito-free village in the temperate zone of the pan-continent. The steel sword used by Bert to practice did not open the edge, and there was no magic weapon to cut the mosquito in two, from the mosquito's point of view, it was a big mountain that could be scared to death.

The use of the double sword is relatively simple, and every morning when you go to the field to cut crops, you use the double sword to cut crops with a sharp edge to train. However, it is forbidden to hold the crops with your hands, because the stressed crops will fall, and in the beginning Bert will often destroy the whole crop. Then, after a few times of stir-frying the chestnuts, the taste was much better, and slowly Bert figured out the trick, which was to turn his wrist quickly when approaching the crop, so as to speed up the speed of the blade through the crop.

In the troubled times many years later, the young man has become a king who controls the life and death decisions of several forces, but for him, perhaps this time is the happiest time. The laughter of children outside the village, the conversation of women at the entrance of the village, the snoring of fathers in the room. Not far away, the misty lake, the gray-white cooking smoke from the chimneys of the villages, and the fog that gradually fills the forest. None of this will ever come back, no return.
