As Ron asked, Sadie said hello to several of the able-bodied women of the village, and they decisively put down their chores, turned and returned to the house to pick up the tomahawks that had been handed down from their ancestors or simply had been made by blacksmiths themselves.
Ron watched all this dumbfounded, although he had an extremely deep experience of the fierce atmosphere of the people of Sturgia, but he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart when he saw that even a woman could casually pick up a half-human-tall axe, and lift her weight like wielding a kitchen knife to chop meat.
"I'm afraid this is much stronger than the basic troops of the Empire, right?" Ron knew everything about his family, the standard weapon of the Imperial recruits was the standard Imperial Sword, this thing was not long enough, not sharp enough, and easy to break if used too violently, but the only advantage was that it was light, enough for the recruits to have the stamina to cut a few more times, but if they were to wield a tomahawk as soon as they got their hands on it......
"Gone." Sadie gathered around four women with waists as thick as logs, casually spat out a mouthful of dirty blood into the snow, and then stepped on her shoes to wipe the blood even out, "I hope that when the girls are trained, you can find us a few people to chop down." ”
Saying goodbye, Sadie led the four women to Karl's side with earth-shattering steps.
"Strong is really strong, but the number of people is also really small, and it must be used at a critical time." Ron whistled loudly as well, and the horses, who had been hiding aside from the commotion, quickly came in close to him.
Turning on his horse, Ron hurried towards the woods to the west.
However, the speed has slowed down, and the task of the auxiliary soldiers of the 70th is to cut down trees and cut trees, and now it is estimated that the work has started, and he is just a pure cavalry, and he can't help in this regard, and the more important thing in front of him is to digest the newly acquired things well.
"At present, it seems that the system has given me four major functions, through the [skills] of proficiency upgrades, I can learn about the movement of class upgrades and the [team] of the team, the [municipal] that manages the fiefdom, and the [family] that has just appeared."
Ron's original imperial family has long since declined, his immediate family has died due to extremely brutal internal power struggles and years of fighting, and there may be a few distant relatives who have basically cut off contact with him are still alive, but Ron has long since "transferred" his noble title to someone more suitable for it.
In other words, Ron's original family, which had been founded since the founding of Calradia, has now been completely severed, and the family mentioned in the system is completely new with Ron as the core.
[A member of the family will never betray the family unless they are banished]
[When a family member leads the army alone, he can provide influence to the head of the family, and the influence can be used to influence the kingdom's decision-making]
[Appointing and dismissing a companion with the appropriate culture as a fief governor increases fief loyalty]
This... That's a ......
After carefully reading every word of the three sentences, Ron's heart was inevitably groaned for a while, and it could only be said that it was worthy of being a plug-in, and it really had such an earth-shattering effect.
As far as the first effect is concerned, Ron can now probably call himself Yuri, a well-deserved psychic mancer.
Unless a member of the family is banished, the family will never be betrayed. What does this mean? This represents the absolute loyalty of the family members to themselves, unquestionable loyalty!
And in this world, the most difficult thing to buy with money, and at the same time the easiest thing to buy with money, is loyalty.
Knowing people, knowing faces, but not hearts.
Otherwise, the cute emperor would not have scattered the eyeliner of the brocade guards all over the world, and Byzantium would not have gouged out his eyes and removed vital organs of the human body every day with his subordinates.
"Absolutely." Ron muttered silently, it seemed that it was necessary for him to increase his influence and increase the family level as soon as possible, the higher the family level, the more absolutely loyal companions he could obtain.
As for the two effects of the latter [family], they are not so important in comparison, just wait for Ron to finish the things in the forest and return to the village and let Sadie manage them on his behalf, and in the current situation of the great enemy, everyone has the same hatred, and there is no need to worry too much about loyalty.
"It's more about prosperity."
Loyalty is still very intuitive, and if the Stemians don't accept themselves, such as Sadie, they will come directly with an axe. But when it comes to prosperity, Ron doesn't know what his skills can do.
By the time Ron reached the edge of the forest, he saw the first giant tree cut down by the auxiliaries slowly collapsing, and the ancient life that had stood silently for countless years in the deserted northern wind and snow hung its head, and the top of the canopy burst open like blood as if the snow had been piled up since ancient times.
"Upside Down !!" The auxiliaries shouted to warn the others in the logging camp to be careful.
The giant tree fell to the ground, which caused a stir very violently, and Ron had to try to calm the horses, and when the movement caused by the falling trees subsided, Ron heard the reinforcements in the camp shouting.
"Sir, be careful!"
Before Ron could hear the warning from the crowd, a dark figure had already rushed out of the shouting auxiliaries, blowing a strong smell of wind, someone couldn't dodge in time, just a little rubbed, the whole person was knocked to the ground, but fortunately the person was fine, just covered his arms and couldn't stop wailing.
The horrific condition of their companions suddenly brought fear in the hearts of the auxiliaries, even the Stegians were not willing to face the hungry beasts of winter, and only the bravest and strongest warriors would regard it as their honor to challenge the beasts.
No one dared to stop him, and the figure rushed directly into the hastily built logging camp along the road that everyone had abandoned.
"How can you behave like this?"
The first thing on Ron's mind was not what the beast would do to the camp, but a visceral sense of disappointment.
If it was not a beast that attacked the auxiliaries just now, but a group of regular cavalry, and they didn't even need to be a group of brave cavalry, then they would have been defeated by now, and it would be a fiasco with no one and no one left the other side to fight with zero casualties!
The formation was scattered, the enemy was defeated, and the defense was directly dispersed by a wave.
Timid, flustered, and at a loss, some people turned around and ran away, but most people were stunned because of horror.
On the battlefield, this is completely waiting for death!
Ron had seen this scene countless times, but he had been the one who had charged against the Stegia phalanx!
And now he's in charge of such a group of soldiers!
The sturdy and thick figure rushed into the camp, chasing the auxiliaries with impunity, and soon someone was overwhelmed by the beast due to physical exhaustion, but he could only watch the mad beast stop,
Turn around
The two thick and sharp fangs were slightly lowered,
The hard fur stood on end,
Heavy hooves restlessly gouging the ground,
It's going to make another charge that will definitely kill you!
Even if he hadn't been stabbed by the fangs, the weight of the beast alone would have crushed the hapless bastard.
"Help! Help me! Damn it, somebody's going to save me! The unfortunate man howled helplessly, and his limbs writhed desperately, but the beast's terrifying appearance made his legs and feet unable to hold his strength at all.
Under extreme fear, some people will burst out with the determination to live to die, but many more will become weak waste because of fear.
It's a pity that this person is the latter.
His mutilated life has become like a candle in the wind.
The beast had already rushed up, its hooves trampling the ground and about to trample on top of a corpse!
The onlookers couldn't bear to close their eyes, the scene of blood splashing, the tragic situation of blood and flesh, they didn't want to witness it with their own eyes.
Now, if no miracle happens, his fate is sealed.
But isn't there a living miracle at the scene?
Flee from the darkness of the prison, shoot the enemy lord with precision in the midst of thousands of troops, and dare to raid a bandit camp with dozens of people with only four men......
What else could this be, if not a miracle?!
The horses let out a high-spirited and loud neigh, like a war drum sounding steadily on the battlefield.
Calm the morale of the army, boost morale, and let the legions that are caught in the scorching and bitter battle raise their last strength to defeat the enemy and win!
[Rescue Soldier Like God] effect is activated!
When joining the battlefield as a reinforcement, your soldiers' morale is increased by 10!
I saw Ron get in close contact with the mad murderer, but not only did he not have the slightest fear of the new students, but instead rode his horse and charged.
The appearance of bravery immediately boosted their morale, which had already fallen to the bottom.
"Close the gap in the camp! Don't let it run! ”
Someone was the first to shout, and all the rest of the people acted decisively, and immediately blocked the camp all around.
But this is also the limit of what this group of auxiliaries can do, and to solve the current crisis, it can only depend on Ron's own performance.
For a moment, all the auxiliaries sweated for Ron and the guy on the ground.
"It's going to have to be faster!"
"I have to... Faster!! ”
The beast moved ahead of him, but the advantage of the warhorse sprinting at this distance was not reflected at all.
At this rate, it seems that even Ron can't save the life that is about to be lost.
But Ron can be faster!
The "Flexible War Horse" effect is activated!
The accuracy of individual horse handling is increased by 10%, and the cavalry riding skill in the formation is increased by 30 points!
The "Wind Ride" effect is activated!
Mounts' speed limit is increased by 5%, and troop movement speed is increased by 2%!
The horse's extreme speed soared upwards again, like an arrow about to pierce another arrow moving at full speed.
moreover
And it did!
In the blink of an eye, Ron leaned sideways, picked up an adult male with the strength of just one arm, and narrowly brushed past the beast.
There was a dull loud bang behind him, and Ron turned his head to see that the beast had slammed directly into a stone.
The force was definitely not light, and even with its thick fat, it was difficult to resolve the damage caused by the collision.
Two fangs of great value to humans were also broken by the impact, and blood was gushing from the corners of its mouth, but it still began to charge again with its trembling hooves and seeing where people were moving.
However, this sprint was far less deterrent than before, and even in the middle of the rush, it fell straight to the ground, and it took a while to get back up.
"Catch him."
When they came to safety, Ron casually threw the people into the pile, instructed them to take them down to recuperate, and then immediately turned around and came to the only place nearby where the ground was relatively high.
This is a rare opportunity to train the troops, and Ron can't afford to miss it.
