Chapter 129 "Tang Knife", Officer Election (4K)

The next day, Baron Brace's younger brother fell off the building while getting drunk while having a "in-depth communication" with his wife. Baron Brace unfortunately declared dead after asking for treatment and was buried the next day.

This matter is strange everywhere, but the nobles never need explanation for their work. The civilians are busy digging food in the fields, so naturally they don’t care.

But since that day, there was a Mr. Quinn in Baron Brace's castle, but strangely, no one has ever seen him look like...

And Ryan, who is far away in Manchester City, doesn't know these things, otherwise he will definitely be very interested. He is now counting the gains of this trip.

The mental damage caused by the Breth family was still considerable. However, after seeing Fitelol's tragic situation, he still felt that it was a bit cheaper to just let Breth go back.

Until now, Fitrore is unable to get out of bed and move, and he is very weak. He is not an extraordinary person, and the strengthening effect of the source liquid is not very useful to him. He can only rely on alchemy potions to support healing.

This time Ryan asked for two thousand Jindlers, hundreds of slaves, and the rest were a batch of food.

To be honest, in this world, the value of more than 100 people of Fitrore and others is no different from those of those slaves. The fact that he can get so much is entirely supported by Brace's life.

If it weren't for his life being held in Ryan's hands, he wouldn't have received the money anyway.

Ryan was not stingy and rewarded the group with great rewards. Fitrore, who had always been tenacious, directly rewarded hundreds of gold. In this world, this is no longer a small amount.

In addition, the precious substances, various metals, crystals, magic materials, etc. that Fitlore was ordered to go out to purchase this time. To be honest, it costs a lot.

Ryan was very hesitant when he handed such a large sum of money in his hands. Fortunately, he did not see the wrong person. The confidants who stayed by his side all said that he had always adhered to his duties and had not surpassed them.

Pure magic crystals have little gains without expectation, and magic crystals have always been a rare thing without channels.

Fortunately, the magic crystal with a single attribute is not widely used and the price is relatively low. He successfully acquired several sets, which made Ryan very happy. The research on the core of alchemy can finally be restarted.

As soon as he received it, he sent someone to send it to Liman and started the development of the alchemy core again. Liman had already practiced it in his heart countless times, and I believe that he would be able to see the finished product afterwards.

He has been thinking about the crystal bomb. This time, Fitrore also purchased a lot of magic crystals that have been used. This type of crystal is generally used as an ornament. The price is slightly lower than that of ordinary crystals. If the price is appropriate, you can receive a large amount.

heap.

It is worth mentioning that after a large number of craftsmen gathered in the territory for various research and experiments, Tang Dao, who had never had any problems, finally made new progress.

In the military blacksmith shop that Ryan ordered, more than 200 blacksmiths with rich experience in forging were gathered. Their sources were complex, some were local, some were fleeing, and some were brought by Karinman and others when they came to the territory.

According to the general template and description given by Ryan, after hundreds of experiments, they finally made a battle knife that was more suitable for the battlefield than the Great Sword.

Ryan listened to an old blacksmith with silver hair talking endlessly, while focusing on the exquisitely crafted sword in front of him.

The scabbard is black and straight, with patterns on it, which is cool and heavy, and very heavy, but it is lighter than the big sword.

The mainstream Tang sword is a one-handed sword. Ryan also allowed craftsmen to continue this design. It is very suitable for both horse and infantry battles. The handle of the knife is treated to increase friction, allowing soldiers to grasp more forcefully on the battlefield.

.

The knife is a straight blade, with a length of about one meter, and a length of 80 centimeters, which is a little longer than the Tang sword. The thickness of the knife is only a few millimeters, and the dark surface of the knife reflects a wave of cold light.

According to the oral statement of the blacksmith, the material used in the battle knife he used was made of fine steel made of black iron smelted, and was made with threaded iron with superior performance.

Therefore, the blade body is dark all over, but it has its own spiral patterns, which is very beautiful.

The forging process is very complicated. First, two pieces of stainless steel must be folded and high-temperature forged. After more than a dozen folds, the forging is formed. Finally, a piece of threaded iron is doubled to increase the temperature and continue to forge.

Let the three pieces of steel become a whole, and then extend to the basic shape of the knife. At this time, because the steel knife has been forged with high temperature, the surface has been decarbonized and the hardness has become smaller. At this time, it must be treated with charcoal seepage to make the surface hardness

strengthen.

After that, a series of steps such as quenching, shaping, polishing, grinding, etc. are required to be finally formed. Compared with Tang Hengdao, it may be a little insufficient in terms of process, but its strength is strengthened in terms of material.

So it is not certain which of the two swords is stronger. Ryan has learned swordsmanship since he was a child and has used many weapons on the battlefield, but he still prefers Tang swords. Perhaps it was because of the magnificent history of that dynasty that attracted him.

"This knife will be called a horizontal knife in the future. Are there any problems with production capacity? Tell me, I will try my best to solve it for you." Ryan waved it tentatively for a few times, very skilled, and couldn't help feeling in a good mood and was already considering changing clothes.

It's a matter of this.

The old blacksmith did not dare to neglect, and quickly answered with the prepared answer: "Dignity Master, this horizontal...the forging of the horizontal sword is not simpler than a one-handed sword, and it is even more cumbersome, but mass production is no longer a problem.

But Kana's ore reserves are very small. Even if black iron and threaded iron are common, they can't get much. If you want to change your clothes, it will probably be difficult in a short period of time."

Ryan frowned when he heard this. Ore reserves were indeed a problem. Whenever he thought of this, he wanted to pick up the idiots in front of him and whip the corpse a hundred times.

Such a good iron ore is mined randomly, resulting in a pitiful low annual output. Otherwise, how could he worry about iron ore?

"Oh, I will send someone to buy ore vigorously. Now you do your best to build it. I will see at least five hundred of the first batches, and you only have three months."

Ryan said to the blacksmiths seriously with his knife as a sheath. Although they looked embarrassed, they did not give any comments, and it seemed that they were still within the scope of acceptance.

Holding the special horizontal knife made by the old blacksmith, Ryan returned to the castle swayingly. Xiyue was sent out by him, Susan was still in school, and his mother Kaelinmann has been obsessed with making desserts recently.

There is no one to see.

He walked around and walked to the backyard with a knife, and when he saw Sterling teaching his apprentice Levith's sword skills.

Ryan stopped to watch for a while, and couldn't help but nodded. He was worthy of being a disciple taught by Sterling. Although it didn't take long, he had already looked a little bit.

At this time, Sterling also noticed Ryan's voice. He took out a silk cloth and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He walked up to him and smiled: "This kid is much worse than you before, both in terms of understanding and physical strength.

Not top, but future achievements may be limited."

"The teacher is joking. Levitra is already among the many trainee knights in the army. If you don't talk about legends or extraordinary in the future, you can at least look forward to the Great Knight level."

Ryan smiled and shook his head. Sterling was just a little too strict, and his requirements and expectations were too high. You should know that the Great Knight is not a cat or a dog. In the entire Green Province, the Great Knight is a powerful man with all his own unique skills.

"Let's talk about it when he crosses that hurdle and becomes a real knight. Now he says this is still too far away."

As he said that, he turned his eyes to Ryan's hand. This strange-shaped weapon caught his attention. Judging from the scabbard, it was not like a one-handed sword, nor a big sword.

He couldn't help but ask curiously: "Lei, is this in your hand?"

"Teacher, this is the horizontal knife I mentioned to you before. Its forging process is very complicated, but it is more suitable for battlefield performance than swords. I plan to let the army change all the clothes in the future."

Ryan raised the knife in his hand, with a hint of pride in his tone. This is the Tang sword, known as the strongest sword in his previous life. Although it is a bit different from the original version, its performance is still very superior, and its armor-breaking ability is even more so.

He threw a one-handed sword for several streets.

Sterling immediately became interested. Nowadays, the mainstream is to use swords. It’s not that no one uses swords, but it has not been popularized for some reasons.

But I didn't expect that Ryan was confident to take the first step, and you must know that this is not a joke.

"It just so happens that after you break through to the advanced knight, we haven't tried it yet. Just check if your sword is useful."

Sterling tied the sword in his hand and said confidently.

Ryan's eyes lit up. There were very few times since the breakthrough that he could make all his efforts. Sterling was obviously such a person, and he happened to see how big the gap there was between him and him.

One master and one disciple stood opposite each other, with a majestic momentum, and a leaf slowly fell from the middle of the two, and the two suddenly collided with swords and swords...

The outcome of that battle did not spread. I only knew that Sterling silently threw away the one-handed sword with an extra gap and asked Ryan for a horizontal sword. It seemed that it was really delicious.

Time passed slowly in trivial matters. One day, Ryan came to the military camp in the north of the city, and today a major event was to be carried out here.

The military system reform is finally about to begin. A long time ago, Ryan, Allen and others discussed the need to subdivide the existing military system from decimal to five-second system.

That is to say, the entire army is divided into squads, groups, leaders, guards, battalions, and troops.

Now Kana has only the First Legion, with two full-scale field battalions and a city defense battalion under its leadership, with a total of more than 2,000 people.

After receiving it from Baron Brace, he asked Allen and Delay to reorganize the army, and at the same time, he used a message to send Hans, who was stationed in the cement factory, to reorganize.

But this increased the gap for officers a lot, so Ryan decided to select officers in the form of assessment according to his previous idea. As long as he could master the basic military formation coordination, understand the orders, and dare to

If you dare to fight, you will be qualified.

When you reach the battalion level, you need to know how to arrange troops, know a certain military strategy, and have a certain judgment on the situation on the battlefield. Personal courage is also more important. Of course, the standards for each level must be increased step by step.

Not to mention the battalion level or above, we must have rich command experience, and each one needs to have the ability to stand on its own.

What we are going to conduct today is the assessment of officers below the battalion. Those who meet the requirements will be admitted to the best, and those who do not meet will not be kept for a fresh meal. They will directly lower the level to show fairness.

As the commander of the legion, Delay had already made preparations and had formulated assessment projects a few days ago.

Since the number of extraordinary people is rare, this assessment excludes all extraordinary people. The two knights of the First Battalion, Koron and Caven of the Second Battalion, all serve as guard commanders, each leading 500 people, which can be regarded as the battalion.

The second-in-command.

Of course no one is dissatisfied with this decision, because the gap between the extraordinary and ordinary people is desperate.

In addition to the soldiers stationed at the cement plant and the Transfer Station at the Warcraft Mountains, there are more than 1,800 soldiers in Manchester City now.

Among them, there were 900 people who signed up for the assessment, most of whom wanted to compete for the quota of low-level officers. After all, low-level officers only counted on their own bravery.

Delai's assessment is very simple. First of all, it is the test of flag language and military commands. Needless to mention flag language, when fighting in the field, the teams are divided very scattered and manpower cannot convey the orders clearly.

At this time, the flag language is very important. It can express simple instructions such as advance, retreat, stop, detour, etc., and the big-headed soldiers below do not expect to be able to understand them omnipotently. As officers, they are necessary.

Military instructions and flag language have similarities, but they are more detailed and complicated, so they will not go into details.

This item is not expected by Ryan and others. Few people continue to beat it. After all, those who dare to sign up are prepared, so this foundation cannot be wrong.

The real highlight is the second item - physical fitness. The army's marching and fighting. Physical fitness is very important. As officers, they are particularly important. Low-level officers have not yet received the treatment of horses and also need to run on two legs.

If you can't hold on before the soldiers, then that's a joke?

The assessment method is very simple. If you carry a weight of 20 pounds, hold an armour, three days of dry food and drinking water for a day, you can run ten kilometers around the school ground. If you can finish it within fifty minutes, you will be considered qualified and you can conduct the final assessment.

There were more people who were defeated in this round, with nearly 800 people left in the end.

Then there was a simple struggle competition, with five people fighting in a group of melee, and the right number of people left was the squad leader of each class, and then the team leader was selected from them, and the leader was the leader, etc.

The assessment of low-level officers took more than two days to finalize the final candidate, and the next step was the assessment of intermediate officers.

More than 100 people participated, but in the end, only thirty people were needed. Several places had already been won by people with excellent command ability.

In addition to evaluating physical and personal strength, intermediate officers also have command ability and selection criteria.

Delai built several large sand tables to deduce the battle examples, which can also be said to be theoretical tests, and then commanded hundreds of people to arrange troops, which is considered practical.

The test was conducted by Ryan and the other two.

Finally, the assessment took two days to complete, and several good seedlings emerged, and Ryan decided to focus on cultivating...
Chapter completed!
