It was six o'clock in the morning. A sharp whistle sounded, accompanied by the Niu brothers' yelling, and after a while of chaos...
"One two one, one two one, one two three four!"
"One two three four!"
The sound of ssy footsteps paired with loud shouts. That was what the residents of Xi Yang City saw in the morning. They were in a loss, standing on the side of the streets, looking at the team of people running while carrying sandbags and shouting numbers in rhythm.
"What are these people doing in the morning? Didn't they join the army?"
"They're probably training. It just that their training thod is a bit weird; they actually ca out to run in the morning."
"I heard that knights train by practicing charging, dueling, and fighting with spears..."
"However, they wear pretty good clothes. They all have new clothes. I heard that there are large pieces of at to eat in the military camp. I don't know if it's true though."
"I wonder when the army will start recruiting again. I also want to join the army."
This was the first ti the residents of Xi Yang City had seen an army morning run.
The Niu brothers ran at the side, holding a wooden stick. They would harshly whip whoever slowed down a little.
"All of you, run. Or else I'll whip you to death." Niu Da yelled.
100 people quickly ran out of Xi Yang City, and ran around Xi Yang City under the morning light.
Xin Ke was a powerful hunter. In the beginning, he didn't realize the point of running, but when he started panting and saw the Niu brothers still breathing steadily, he realized that they were making them run to train their endurance.
When the team returned to Xi Yang City, they saw Liu Feng standing outside of the military camp, yawning.
"Greets Lord Liu Feng," the Niu brothers yelled, and the others quickly followed suit.
Liu Feg looked at the 100 people. They all looked refreshed, completely different from yesterday.
"Start today's training. Don't mind , Liu Feng waved his hand.
"Yes."
Niu Da led the team into the military camp and imdiately sent soone to sort out the military camp. They would eat breakfast half an hour later.
"Young master, if these people practice for half a month or so, and are then equipped with a spear, they would have so combat power and would be able to take on average horse thieves," Niu Ben said. He had co to the military camp with Liu Feng.
"Too weak. So many people fainted just from running. Their physique is terrible," Liu Feng shook his head. He saw many people being carried back.
"Their foundation is too weak. It's okay that they can can actually do this much," Niu Ben said.
"I'll leave it be for the ti being. For now, let's look at how well they've cleaned their house." Liu Feng changed the subject. What he wanted were soldiers that could solo 10 people. He wasted so much energy on the military camp, and if the soldiers can only deal with ordinary horse thieves, he would imdiately withdraw half of his investnt and would rather invite knights to join.
They went around to look. They were quite satisfied with the new soldiers' housekeeping. Liu Feng didn't have too high requirents in the beginning.
After all, things like folding blankets and placing shoes were made to train people's discipline. Only by starting with the details in life can people develop a habit faster. A soldier's duty is to obey orders. Liu Feng wanted a disciplined army, an army that would obey his orders.
And they would not be the trash soldiers that would scream their lungs out and just charge in at the enemies. It would be okay if they were fighting an asymtrical war where they have the advantage, but against strong enemies, they would get dispersed imdiately.
After they inspected a few dormitories, it was already 7 sothing in the morning, and they went into the cafeteria, preparing to eat breakfast.
Liu Feng took Mina and Niu Ben to the cafeteria and heard Niu Da reprimanding people as soon as they walked into the door.
"All of you line up properly. Whoever dares to cut in line doesn't get to eat breakfast today."
The noisy team imdiately went silent. So of them only eat 1 al a day, and now that they actually get to eat breakfast in the military camp, no one dared to cause trouble.
Today, the breakfast was 2 stead buns that were twice the size of a fist and a bowl of soup made from pig bones. Thee people's eyes glowed as they chewed. The soft white buns were 100 tis tastier than the wheat bread that they ate. The soup was so good that they almost shed tears.
Liu Feng was full after eating one stead bun and a bowl of soup. He nodded in satisfaction after seeing the reaction of the people around him. Who wouldn't work hard for him if the life in the army is good? The stead buns in here tastes good, and they would be the first ones to object if they were made to eat the hard wheat bread.
"This broth is delicious," Mina drank the broth in one gulp.
"Let's go. We'll leave this place to Niu Da and the others. Let's take a look at other things right now," Liu Feng stood up and gave the stead bun that he hadn't eaten to Mina.
Mina's eyes turned in crescent moons. She took the stead bun and took small bites. The two stead buns could only make her 70% full.
Niu Ben swiftly followed behind them. In his current appearance, no one would be able to see that he was a cripple. He walked more powerfully than an average person.
"Uncle Niu Ben, I already made people buy warhorses. There shouldn't be a big problem. Let's go take a look at the weapons right now," Liu Feng lead the way to the warehouse.
The things inside the warehouse were things that he brought from Earth a few days ago. Today was the ti to let people see them.
. Literally, chicken fly dog jump. Describing a scene that's ssy, disorderly, or chaotic.
Bunch of sadists. Plus adding pain just makes it harder to run.
. Pay respect to, greet, or see. It's like in those cultivation novels where the disciple says, "Disciple greets master," just that they (probably) use instead of .
I'd like to see you try, shut-in. Let's see how much better you'll do. Oh, and don't forget the whipping. . For this part, I was debating whether or not I should put in natural duty or just duty. ans sky or heaven, and could also an natural in so cases. ans duty, vocation, or profession. would an natural duty, but I felt that just duty would be better, so I didn't include natural.
. It's a type of battle where one side has the advantage. The side that is fighting a "" is the side that has the advantage, whether it's a number advantage or whatever. The other side, the side that has the disadvantage, isn't fighting a "". (Idk what it's called.) Asymtrical war was the closest thing that I could find, with the only difference being that both sides are fighting an "asymtrical war", whether they have an advantage or disadvantage.
Translator Note:
Although I said that I'll work extra, I was forced outside today in the garden with a bunch of bugs and I've counted at least 8 bugs on my body today. Most of the bites were small and don't affect much, but theirs one on my hand and it itches as hell, so I might not be able to fill up the chapters that I own pretty soon. That said, I'll still be doing daily updates, so no worries about that.
