Chapter 28 My Barracks Will Train Their Own Soldiers
All eyes suddenly lit up, with many people straightening their backs, hoping that the lord would notice their “strong” physique.
Especially those without children felt that their opportunity for a breakthrough had finally arrived.
However, they were unaware that all their information had long been priced and listed in the system. The outco was already determined.
This was indeed a selection process with so “dark undercurrents.”
But it was also the fairest selection.
No one understands the residents better than the system!
“Everyone chosen will undergo our training. Those who et the standards, I will provide them with wages, including als, and even at!”
Everyone instantly erupted in excitent.
Those selected could actually directly beco the lord’s warriors!
It might not sound like much, but it was important to understand that, in this era, the privilege to beco a soldier and participate in battle was reserved for the nobility!
Ordinary commoners were just ant to be at the rcy of others!
But now, they even had the chance to beco soldiers?
Although this did not an they gained noble status, being able to do sothing that only nobles could do was a great honor!
Everyone’s eyes glowed with excitent, their hearts pounding with anticipation!
Richard looked at them with a faint smile, still not concealing anything, and began to call out nas with his hands behind his back.
He read out five hundred nas in one breath.
Each person whose na was called out turned red with excitent.
At the sa ti, everyone’s respect for Richard deepened.
They were all long-term residents of the sa small town and knew each other to so extent.
Seeing Richard recite so many nas without even looking at a list left them astounded.
Based on their mutual understanding, they noticed that every na Richard ntioned belonged to soone well-known for their physical fitness and combat skills.
So people who had usually been very low-key, and whom they hadn’t paid much attention to, were now recognized by Richard, and they realized that their often-overlooked neighbors were indeed in good shape.
How did the lord have such a deep and detailed understanding of them?
In that instant, the image of the all-knowing lord took root in their minds.
They believed that even if they occasionally complained about the lord in secret, he would surely know.
The crowd’s reverence for Richard reached a new peak.
…
Richard led the five hundred relatively strong individuals to the militia training camp that had been pre-built.
Although called a training camp, it was really just an enclosed open area surrounded by a fence.
But what was an empty space for others was a genuine training ground for Richard, even more effective than many professional training camps.
He smiled, secretly opened the system store, and found the militia training camp badge from the reward list.
He then clicked on it.
In the next mont, the system prompt appeared:
[Do you want to set this location as the militia training camp site?]
“Yes!” Richard made his decision without hesitation.
[Militia training camp site successfully set! Please note, if needed, you can consu lord points to relocate this site!]
Richard raised his eyebrows—this was good news. However, this was the area he had planned in advance, so even if it wasn’t relocated, it didn’t matter.
After designating the site, there were no visible changes externally, but the system’s voice prompted:
[Militia training camp constructed successfully. You have opened a new chapter, leading the ticulously trained people to conquer this world!]
Subsequently, so text appeared on the militia training camp panel, which Richard opened to review.
[Militia training camp functions activated!]
[Enhancent: You can train basic militia, enhancing the militia’s basic attributes (each militia can undergo up to three rounds of enhancent; with each enhancent, the militia’s potential cap increases).]
A smile spread across Richard’s face.
Especially the words in the parentheses—it was clear that the system didn’t intend to shortchange him.
If it were rely enhancing the current physical attributes of this group, that would not be a big deal, but if it could also raise their potential while boosting their personal abilities, then that was a different matter.
These people were the cream of the crop, selected from over four thousand individuals.
Even in the previous tough living conditions, they still had a certain level of physical fitness, so even without the militia training camp, with proper training and a balanced diet, their capabilities could improve significantly.
Building on that foundation and then enhancing their abilities three tis—now that would be sothing special.
With this, he would have a truly formidable force of five hundred strong soldiers!
Richard was quite pleased.
He continued to look through the panel.
[Comprehension: As long as training is conducted within the training camp, basic skills like swordsmanship, combat, riding, and archery can be gradually learned.]
This would save Charles and Helen a lot of teaching effort, leaving the main focus on training their obedience.
This arrangent would at least ensure that these people could beco qualified warriors in terms of combat ability.
As for other aspects, like obedience and courage, those would require personal training.
[Loyalty: People trained in this camp will gradually devote their loyalty to the camp’s master—you. This loyalty will not be affected by any changes in territory policies.
(You will have a force forever loyal to you!)]
Excellent, such loyalty would at least guarantee their basic obedience.
Stable!
“Charles, divide these five hundred people into five squads of one hundred each and give them so basic training. Make sure they understand all the training fundantals, okay?”
Richard said to squad leader Charles.
Charles, with his full beard, grinned broadly and saluted, saying, “Rest assured, my lord! Charles will not let you down!”
Richard nodded, gave the crowd one last look, and turned to leave.
He planned to visit the blacksmith’s shop and confirm the setup there as well.
Just as he stepped out of the gate, he heard Charles issuing orders behind him:
“Everyone, listen up! From now on, these five positions here will be where your squads assemble!”
“Helen, start calling out nas according to my thod from the other side!”
“You five, you’re the first squad! You five, the second squad… you five, the fifth squad…”
Helen observed for a mont, and once she understood Charles’ thod, she began to call out nas as well.
Using this approach, each of them only needed to call out nas fifty tis to organize everyone.
Hearing their thod, Richard left feeling satisfied.
These two subordinates were indeed quite capable, especially Charles, who had not disappointed him.
