21. If you are too cultured, you will suffer
The person who asked the question was a soldier trained by Carl and others, that is, the warrior that Ron intended to be driven by the backbone of the legion in the future. There is no doubt that they will certainly make admirable achievements for the Legion in the future, but now, in the eyes of everyone, at least in their own eyes—
They didn't do anything but train and train, and while they were training, Ron and the militia had already accomplished a feat.
So what else do we need to do? It's just a dispensable existence.
"Do you all think so?" In fact, there is no need for Ron to open his mouth to confirm it, just take a look at the slightly depressed half of the scene, and you can understand that this idea has become their consensus.
And this consensus ......
In a sense, it is also true that the contribution of the soldiers is exactly equal to 0 in terms of the hunt of wild boars, which is an irrefutable fact. That's why Ron chose to completely blur the credit of everyone in the words just now, instead of telling everyone who did everything.
Isn't it embarrassing to put it clearly? It's like a 40-minute late game, both sides have to fight a wave of dragons to decide life and death, and as a result, one person went shopping all the way and won the group.
However, the current situation was also expected by Ron, who had already prepared his words to deal with it, and he coughed lightly.
"Who says you're useless?"
Arthur's words were so loud that the soldiers were taken aback by the instructor, who usually seemed to be taciturn, but whose personal strength was terrifyingly high—they really didn't expect him to be so loud.
And Arthur sighed a little disappointed in his heart after howling this voice, Carl and John just failed to understand the meaning of Ron's words and reacted, even if they were still staring at themselves like everyone else, it seems that the burden of survival still has to be handed over to smart people like himself and Ron, and the two of them are responsible for carrying the big blade.
And the two of them, whose rating had dropped again in Arthur's heart, not only didn't know it, but waited expectantly for Arthur to explain—they were really sincere, and they consistently thought that the soldiers were really useless yesterday.
"The most important thing in the village of Ustok at the moment is to survive, and everything that is done for this purpose has a contribution." Arthur continued to speak helplessly, talking eloquently under Ron's eager gaze, "The militia is a contribution to logging and hunting, women cooking food is a contribution, why is it not a contribution that you train hard to defend your village?!" ”
Speaking of this, Arthur paused slightly, and then his voice became a little louder, "Even those old people who hinder us from logging and building fortifications, even if they don't have them now, who can guarantee that they will not contribute in the future?" ”
As soon as the words fell, the scene, which had already been quiet, was a little quieter, probably because there were fewer people in the sudden.
"That's right!" Carl slapped his thigh and suddenly realized, not only that, if you follow Arthur's reasoning, their instructors in charge of strict training are even more meritorious, in addition to teaching recruits, they also have a cordial exchange with female warriors and both sides have won and lost, and they know each other and themselves.
When you really step into the battlefield in the future, you can better allocate the troops.
"That's what I thought too." John had a bitter face, gasping slightly, there were more words in his heart that he wanted to echo, but at this time, he couldn't squeeze out more than half a word, because Karl slapped his thigh and his hand was really not very light.
It's all painful.
At present, in the village of Ustoke, the three people who have a considerable right to speak have spoken, and what Arthur said cannot be said to be wrong, and the soldiers slowly thought for a while and then agreed with Arthur's statement, in the future, it will definitely be them who will fight against the private soldiers of the nobles, so the current hard training should be all about accumulating military merits in the future.
Now that the tone has been set, the resentment in everyone's hearts has gradually subsided, and it is time for Ron to skip this brief episode and bring the topic back on track.
Arthur fell silent and hid back into the crowd, quietly listening to Ron.
"I'm going to form a legion, and I'm going to use this boar as our symbol."
"It's called the Northern Boar Legion!"
Although there was still an overflowing sense of shame when he spoke, as Ron's words landed, everyone did not show any playful emotions, but instead stood in awe and deserved.
In fact, this is normal, in Ron's original cognition, the pig has basically lost its wildness, and has completely become a domestic animal to be slaughtered, and it is full of derogatory connotations in various contexts, even if it is a wild boar, under the power of modern long-range firepower, people will only think that wild boars are some dangerous game.
That's right, even wild boar is a delicacy that should be obediently served on the recipe.
But this is the era of cold weapons, an era in which people and countries must fight with each other with heavy armor and heavy shields, face to face and fight with their lives, and even their teeth must be used as weapons.
The boar's majestic size is synonymous with terror and death, not walking protein and fat, and tiny humans who have lost their sharp claws and thick fur in evolution instinctively fear this behemoth.
A legion named after a boar is not a ridiculous thing in the eyes of his enemies, but a formidable enemy that must be treated with caution.
"Northern... Wild Boar Legion? Arthur silently repeated Ron's words, but his mind was not at all on the area that was important to Ron.
"Northern... Interesting. ”
It is not the "Legion of the Boars of Sturgia" with strong national significance, but the "Legion of the Boars of the North" simply named after its geographical location......
The political implications behind it are self-evident. In Arthur's view, Ron was deliberately stripping the Ustok village of Stergia from it in order to create a more cohesive organization.
"In the days of the Kalradia Empire, you would have been sentenced to death by hanging." Arthur again recalls his uncle's teachings that this is called political and military disloyalty, or... Hold your own troops.
But if Arthur knew what Ron was thinking, he would probably blush with shame because of his very reasonable brain supplement.
Because Ron simply thinks that the word "North" is more domineering, it will always remind people intentionally or unintentionally of the mighty existence of the "King of the North".
How to say it, this is a loss of being too educated.
