Chapter 22 Another Question
Even strict troops are given proper rest on weekends, because after all, everyone is a man, not a slave or a machine. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info What's more, everyone is a new recruit, and some things have to be done slowly, and it is easy for people to despair and collapse if they train too high-intensity at a time.
However, the lazy behavior of trying to sleep until noon is impossible in the army. There is still a basic morning running exercise system, and after breakfast, it is basically rest time. I used to hear that the rest activities in the army were very boring, and there were basically no entertainment activities, and Kevin even heard that the barracks were full of, although at present, it was obviously a rumor.
No matter what kind of entertainment, for a group of recruits, being able to sit is already a very happy thing. Since the early days, Starter has been silently praying, hoping that he will not train today anyway. But alas, he must have done too much evil in his usual life, and God completely disobeyed his prayers, so that not long after breakfast, the commander summoned everyone to the training ground with their shields.
Everyone was reluctant, and they wanted to say, "Aren't you resting, why are you going to the training ground again?" but no one dared to say it, so they came to an ordinary open space silently.
Marcus glanced at them, "What are you doing?
No one answered, and they all straightened their backs subconsciously.
"Speaking of rest, I won't give you a training mission today. Of course, if you have any people looking for excitement, then count it separately. Marcas casually took a shield in his hand, "Today I'm going to teach you a game, it's one that our troops often play." Sometimes there will be a larger competition on the festival, and this game is called - Mutual Topping!"
Looking at everyone's blank looks, Marcus couldn't help but feel proud: "Kevin, haven't you traveled a lot? Don't you know this game either?"
"I don't know. Kevin shook his head, at this time he remembered the rumor that the troops were all, and he felt very bad.
Marcas casually explained further: "This game of mutual topping is a tradition of our army. There are many events such as single mutual topping, double mutual topping, multi-person mutual topping, men's mutual topping, women's mutual topping, mixed male and female mutual topping, etc. ”
Everyone was surprised, and just listening to the explanation, some strange pictures came to their minds.
"To put it simply, it is to draw a circle on the ground, and both sides hold their shields, and use the shields to top the opposite side, or push out of the circle position. Marcus spoke.
Everyone lost interest for a moment, and it was clearly shown on their faces. These are all aristocratic origins, and the entertainment of the aristocracy is either elegant forms such as balls, chess, wine tasting, etc., or swordsmanship, horseback riding, etc., which are more aristocratic. Who likes this kind of rude mutual topping? If two slaves are allowed to play on each other, they can watch and have fun.
But Marcus didn't care about this, and at this time he had already drawn a big circle on the ground with his sword: "I know you don't like it, and it's not the first time I've led noble soldiers. But this is the tradition of our troops, so you must learn. ”
After speaking, Marcas stood in the circle, holding a shield: "The rule is, you can only use the shield in your hand to push others, maintain a basic shield defense posture, you can't use the shield to smash around, this is a foul." At the same time, the hands must not hit people, and the feet must not kick people, so that they can stumble. After being pushed out of the circle, it is considered to lose, and those who fall to the ground will automatically go out of the circle. ”
"Strictly speaking, vindictiveness is not allowed. But you're going to let you go. Marcas beckoned, "You six go up together, you can knock me over, and then I'll take you out to catch rabbits that afternoon." Or you can stay at camp if you want to, as long as you don't run around. If you can't stand me, you can fight each other for an afternoon in the afternoon!"
Everyone looked at each other a little nervously, pinched the shield in their hands, and they all had no bottom in their hearts.
"Come on, what are you afraid of? If you don't push me up, just run me in circles!" Marcas directly released a strong deterrent.
"Come! Let's go together!" Start immediately couldn't help it, yelled, and took out a charging posture to push it against the chief, and everyone on the side subconsciously followed.
But they just didn't take two steps, and before they reached Marcas, everyone had already bumped into each other first. You must know that there is only one person in Marcas, and six people want to top him at the same time, and the speed is comparable in short distances, but the result is that the people who walk in the middle feel more and more crowded, and the people on both sides are still desperately turning towards the middle, because the target is in the middle.
So before he could make a move, Gray was the first to trip, and Marinas on the side couldn't hold it and lay on him, and the others hurriedly jumped away. It also marked a direct loss in the first game.
"What are you doing?" Marcus scoffed, "don't add to my jokes, okay?
Everyone retreated in disgrace, and Sain immediately stood up: "I'll take command! My father is the commander of the legion, and I am familiar with the changes in battle formations. ”
Starter couldn't help but glance at Kevin, who was very skeptical of the little kid's abilities, and seemed more reliable than Kevin. But Kevin himself didn't say a word, and it was inconvenient to say more. Of course, Kevin doesn't know if he has real skills, but after all, he is a military family, so it shouldn't be bad. And after all, it's a game, so you don't have to take it too seriously.
After a while, I saw Sain pulling people back and forth, and discharged a triangular formation, with the fat man at the front, and Sain himself behind the fat man, that is, in the triangular formation. If they are facing each other, even the chief has no reason to be able to overturn them, all he is worried about is the situation behind the commander dodging the front.
Then Sain in the center must be able to react quickly, put pressure on the flanks, and block a possible counterattack from the commander. It is said that this is one of the charging formations that his father trained the Thunder Knights, and it is relatively simple, so he remembers.
"Come on!" Marcus seemed to look good here, but he was slightly interested.
"Come on!" shouted the crowd, and their shields forward. The short-distance speed is about the same, and everyone is not too fast, so as not to be unable to stop.
But this time, Marcas actually took the initiative to rush forward, and he shouted loudly alone, surpassing the six people here. Everyone couldn't react, and they were rushed directly into the formation, and with a random bang, the sound of the two shields intersecting came, and Sain retreated six or seven steps in a row, and sat down outside the circle.
The others lost their command one by one, and their morale was suddenly lost for a while, and the chief was randomly left and right, and everyone had already subconsciously fled.
"What are you doing?" Marcus laughed, "Six people, at this level?"
"Let's continue," Sain got up from a distance and regrouped the formation. Charge again, but the result is only a repeat of the battle just now. He was once again topped off, and the others fled for their lives.
"Don't get in formation," Stadt advised, "just rush up and play free!"
Everyone, look at me, I look at you, no one has a better suggestion, so take it. So everyone entered the circle, each shouting and going in to hit people with a shield. But the result was still tragic, although the shield hit Marcas, it didn't seem to be of much use, and the opponent easily took a position and immediately pounced.
And because of the large number of people, more people everyone bumped into seemed to be their own people, Kevin took a step slowly, trying to find any gaps in it, but he only felt that it was his own people running around in front of him, and he couldn't do it.
Bang bang bang! Marcus hit the fat man three times in a row, and Statt suddenly withdrew from the circle, and Marcas casually left a sentence: "Don't come in if you're out of the circle." "And immediately went to the others.
Everyone was terrified, from the original scramble to try to resist him, to the scramble to escape, the situation in this small circle became so fast that it was unbelievable.
"What do you want to do when you just run?" Marcas saw the opportunity, and went up with a shield and overturned Sain, "Get out of the circle yourself, don't come in." ”
"Sir!" Gray suddenly yelled, "I'll go one-on-one with you!" Young people are also the most easily provoked.
So he was out the next moment. Kevin wanted to use his magic shield for a moment, and he didn't know if the magic shield also belonged to the ranks of shields, but then he thought about it, it was just a game, and there was no need to deliberately cheat. As a result, this distraction, the chief rushed straight over.
Kevin was panicked, and directly subconsciously turned around and wanted to run, but was hit in the back by the shield, and ran forward six or seven steps, out of the circle. Behind him was Marcas's disdain: "You are not worthy to be a warrior by exposing your back to the enemy." ”
"Don't hit me!" Marinus roared at Sain. "I just wanted to hit you and hit him indirectly. Sain explained.
"On the battlefield, there is still time to explain?" Marcas rushed straight over, and the words fell, and the two had been knocked out of the circle. There is only one Oka left, and Oka has lost his fighting spirit: "I surrender." I throw in the towel. ”
"Ugh!" Marcus shook his head, tossing his shield, "It's not fun playing games with you. Are you still interested in challenging me?"
Everyone looked at each other, Kevin was very interested, he felt that there were many doorways here. But when he saw that everyone else had boring expressions, Kevin had no choice but to shut up.
"In that case, let's talk to each other for a day today. Marcus waved his hand, "You can top each other in threes on three, or you can top casually alone." Hear the bell and come back to eat, don't run around. I'm going to play cards with somebody else, do you hear me?"
"Yes!" As soon as they heard that the chief was leaving, everyone's emotions were extremely high.
The chief just snorted coldly, waved his hand and left. As soon as the chief left, the six people became lazy in an instant, and several of them yawned to the sky, stretched their waists, and rubbed their arms: "It really hurts to be hit just now." ”
"It's boring. "Oka is already lying on the ground," the chief said, "I was thrown to the ground. ”
"Isn't that right?" replied Kevin, "at least for the sake of pretending, and walking back and forth with shields." ”
"Alas!" the crowd sighed, but Kevin had a point. If the chief took the time to come and take a look, and let everyone run in circles, it would be too bad.
As a last resort, everyone still picked up the shield and walked from left to right, from right to left. Sain and the others were bored: "Do we have to live like this in our military careers?"
"At least we don't have to run," Stadt seemed satisfied, "I'm worried that the chief will suddenly change his mind and let's go for a run." It's terrifying. ”
"Alas!" Gray sighed all his life, "do we just walk around all morning?
"What then?" replied Marinas, "why don't we dance together?"
"I never dance with men. Oka interjected.
So the atmosphere entered a cold field again, and everyone walked around the circle irregularly with shields, their eyes blank, as if they were going to die of boredom. Finally, Kevin's shield slammed into Stat.
"What are you doing?" asked Stat. "I'm bored. Kevin replied. So Starter also hit Kevin, and Kevin returned the salute, and gradually, the others were also involved in the war. The circle finally began to crash continuously, and a boring game was finally played again when people were extremely bored.
Didn't bother too much with the rules, someone was knocked out of the circle, and soon came back, and no one said anything. But everyone obviously feels that Starter is the strongest, and no one can beat this fat man here, and the undoubted weight advantage is really difficult to surpass.
Statt has finally regained his self-confidence, he has always been accused of being a dragger, and now he has finally topped everyone and let everyone know what the power of hind legs is. The most fun thing in the whole game is him.
So the boring morning was spent in the mutual topping. After lunch, Kevin found the chief again and began to ask questions, "Sir, why can't the six of us beat you alone?"
"This is strength, and you still have a lot to practice. Marcus replied.
"What is the technical reason for that?" Kevin asked again.
"First, action. You look similar on the surface, but the actual power is not right, which requires more practice. Second, strength. That's not much to say. Third, observe the battle situation, and look like you are all strong on the outside. Cut into the top flip one, and was immediately frightened. Marcus smiled, turned to the group, and said, "You're not far from it." ”
Kevin asked again: "The game of mutual topping, it should have been invented to train the ability to block, right? Or the ability to charge? Is the so-called multiplayer mutual topping similar to the group charge, except that you don't hold a gun." ”
Marcas: "......"
"I know that even when we were in line, we failed twice. Because the gap between our people has become the Achilles' heel of the formation. It's a difference in our strength, but I think if we can anticipate the weakness of the opponent's attack, we can add another person to the back of the formation. When you go through the formation, the person behind you immediately stabs you diagonally, is this tactic feasible?" Kevin said again.
Marcus stood up with a dark face: "You come here." ”
The two came to the grove again, and Marcus beat him unceremoniously and didn't explain why, and Kevin just hugged his head and didn't dare to ask why. I know that I have too many problems and I am angry with the other party.
After the fight, Starter was already a little concerned and asked, "Are you okay?"
"Hit. Kevin was straightforward.
"Tsk, don't you know this is the army?" Statt frowned, "Die yourself." ”
"Hmph," Kevin was angry, "can he kill me? Can he cripple me? I can't even ask questions? It's ridiculous." I'm sorry to wait until he's in a better mood to continue asking. ”
Stadt: "......"
So the afternoon was spent in boredom again, and now only Stat is keen on this activity, because it can give him pride. Soon, however, everyone else got bored and sat down to rest while Kevin and Stadt pushed each other.
Kevin was knocked to the ground by Statt again and again, but he got up again and again, and he didn't know why? For glory? It was so boring.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Kevin approached the chief again: "Sir, I want to ask...... I continued to ask...... I also want to ask...... I kept asking......"
Sir: "......"
"Sir, you said you could be casual when you rested. Kevin replied, "I don't ask these questions in training, but it's time to rest." ”
Sir: "......"
Kevin has traveled for many years and has little experience in fighting, but he has seen quite a few. What's more, he once wrote "The Biography of the Assassins", and he himself made up a lot of original techniques. Combined with years of knowledge, plus the content left in Daddy's book, plus his own brain supplement, Kevin can often ask all kinds of strange questions.
But Kevin also has skills in asking questions, the first question is relatively simple, and it is estimated that most of the officers can answer it. Once the chief subconsciously answered the question, Kevin gradually threw out all kinds of strange questions. If you can answer it, of course it's the best, and it doesn't matter if you can't.
This kind of behavior is, of course, incomprehensible to everyone, including the prefect himself. He felt that this thing was deliberately making things difficult for himself, so he took it to the grove and beat him, but he couldn't be convinced, which was really a bit unexpected.
The next morning, everyone still got up on time, and after breakfast, the chief was in a good mood: "Today I will teach you to catch rabbits." ”
"Sir," Kevin stepped forward, "I want to ask...... I continued to ask...... I also want to ask...... I kept asking......"
The chief had a dark face: "Okay, the rabbit won't be caught." Go ahead and top each other. ”
