Chapter 387: Knowledge

Jose's voice was not too loud, but it was very clear to everyone's ears, even in the noise of more than 10,000 people, it was as wonderful as magic. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

In fact, Joseph did perform a wind magic, otherwise in the face of the voices of more than 10,000 people, he was afraid that he would not be able to drown out the voices of everyone. But when José stood up and said this, almost all of the recruits let out even louder noises of surprise:

"This young boy is the county prefect?"

"Oh my God, this county keeper is really young, much younger than those noble lords in our town!"

"Hehe, such a kid is actually our chief?"

The recruits immediately couldn't help but whisper in the audience, these guys didn't seem to understand the discipline of the army. Although there was still a little bit of awe in my heart for this county keeper, I couldn't help but talk in surprise at the moment.

Seeing this, Joseph couldn't help frowning, and then said with a somewhat serious face: "Quiet for Lao Tzu!" Listen, I know that you are all natives in the northwest, and you are all displaced people who have lost their homes because of the war in the northwest and have been forced to wander and flee. But at the moment, look at where you are, this is the barracks, not the streets where you are sleeping!

Although you are not official soldiers now, Lao Tzu recruited you back to form an army and protect the county town of Sadland! This is my fiefdom and your homeland, and what Sadland needs is a group of elite soldiers to defend the country, not a group of rabble!

Look at what you look like, if you want to be a soldier of the Empire, instead of a bunch of wandering refugees, stand up for Lao Tzu!"

Such words are obviously much more useful, and after hearing these words, many recruits subconsciously straightened their backs. At least now they feel that being a soldier is much better than vagabonding, and if they can enlist in Sadrand, it will be a good way out. So at this moment, hearing Jose say this, the discussion in the audience has become quieter.

Only then did Jose squint his eyes and glance at the audience, then cleared his throat and said: "Very good, you must remember that the first rule of being a soldier in Lao Tzu's territory is to obey orders!

I'm afraid you guys haven't eaten meat for many days, but you guys are soldiers under Lao Tzu, and you have meat to eat! Not only do you have meat to eat today, but for the next three days, I promise you that you will be able to eat meat every day! Until you can't pass the enlistment selection three days later, then go back and forth from where you go, Lao Tzu's subordinates don't want waste!"

When these recruits heard this, they were all excited, but Jose smiled secretly, and then asked Alok and Gould to explain some rules and taboos, and then arranged for people to place these recruits, and then they didn't say anything anymore and left the barracks directly.

For the next three days, as promised by José, these guys could eat meat every day, and apart from not being able to walk around and out of the barracks at will, the garrison did not restrict their freedom. After a few comfortable days, these homeless people have made up their minds to stay in the Sadland army, after all, this kind of life is more comfortable than the original days of farming, and I don't know how many times better than the days of wandering around!

However, during these three days, these fellows were still placed and arranged their own numbers, and three hundred men were assigned to the garrison as temporary commanders, and each soldier was in charge of about fifty recruits. These veterans will explain the establishment and rules of the army to these recruits clearly in the past few days. Of course, Jose didn't expect to train these ordinary homeless people into veterans in three days, but only if he could establish a sense of being a soldier in their hearts, his goal would be achieved.

Three days later, the recruits were grouped outside the city of Sadland, outside which Joseph and the other generals were already waiting. Then the prefect of the county gave a strange order, he put on a rather heavy suit of armor for each recruit who took the test, and then announced the manner of the test:

All the soldiers are now racing around the eastern wall of the county town to the north of the city, and there are soldiers in charge of the camp on the north side of the county, and among the more than 10,000 recruits, the first soldiers to arrive in the north of the city of Sadland will be officially incorporated into the army, and the rest will be eliminated!

Such strange rules made these recruits a little confused, but since the county guard had given the order, they had to put on their armor in obedience, and then rush to the north of the city in batches. It has to be said that such a considerable weight of armor on the body is undoubtedly a big challenge for these recruits, those who are slightly weaker quickly fall behind the team, and those who are more physically fit are struggling to run north of the city.

The city of Sadland County is not small, running from the gate in the east of the city to the north of the city, and traveling for a long time with such a load, for these guys, I am afraid it will take at least half a day. However, Joseph did not seem to be in a hurry at all, but looked very interested. He chose to use this way of carrying a heavy burden to select the new army, because he was interested in the physique of the soldiers, and for the new army he was about to form, he must use very strict and ultra-standard selection methods.

Since the strength of the Northwest Army is not comparable to the strength of the Northwest Army in terms of quantity, then at least I can only put some effort into the quality of the army. The selection was only the first step, and the rest of the drills Jose had even thought about that kind of training, and in addition to having Gould and Alok in charge of training these troops, he also had his own ideas on how to build a cohesive and centripetal army.

Under these seemingly bizarre selection conditions, it took several days for 15,000 recruits to be registered and selected in batches, and most of them did not even know whether they were qualified or not. It wasn't until the end of the examination that the thick registration form was delivered to José, and José selected six thousand, who were soon selected by lottery and sent to Gray's barracks.

Such a move undoubtedly satisfied Gray, and Joseken put the newly formed army in the barracks of the Northwest Army, which also shows the attitude of the county guard: he Joseph is willing to hand over this army to the Northwest Army, at least willing to manage it with the Northwest Army.

Gray's original idea was that if this Viscount of Sadran held all the new troops in his hands, he would inevitably complain to General Ronktor.

Hmph, but in this way, this guy is a funny guy!
