After listening to Rhode’s report, Richard nodded, looked at the information in his hand, and digested what the other party said.

Decades ago, the Swamp Witch appeared in the swamp on the edge of the territory, and there was no record of her existence even earlier.

She can turn people into monsters and steal newborn babies, which are said to be used to make potions.

However, there has been no news of missing babies in recent years. It is not known whether she no longer needs that kind of potion or has found a better substitute.

But this is always good news for the people in the territory.

Because of this, everyone even thought that the Swamp Witch had left the swamp and went deep into the forest.

Some people even speculated whether the Swamp Witch had been killed.

Of course, these are all speculations from the people, and Rhode’s information shows that the Swamp Witch is not dead or disappeared, but her activities have decreased in recent years.

Unexpectedly, she appeared again not long after Richard took over here.

So, was last night’s action an accident? Or was it a test of Richard by the Swamp Witch?

Richard looked at the information, which also mentioned that the witch had a monster army under her to protect her safety.

He pondered for a long time, but couldn’t match the witches with the various witches in the fairy tales he knew.

“Lord, this swamp is not far from your castle. Now this witch dares to offend your majesty. Should we do it?” Rhodes asked in a tone of inquiry. Richard thought about it and then shook his head:

“Don’t worry. Since this witch doesn’t dare to show up, it means she’s not strong enough. I’ll keep her alive for now. I have other plans.”

“Yes!” Rhodes bowed and said

“By the way, remind the people who are on night watch during this period to be alert! Also, starting from tonight, there will be two more night watchmen.”

Normally, since the castle itself is not big, two night watchmen are almost enough.

But since there are vampire bats, it is not impossible to arrange two more.

But this does not mean that Richard should not punish the previous two people.

After all, no one noticed that someone was attacked for a whole night. This is indeed their dereliction of duty, and they deserve to be punished to learn a lesson.

As for the swamp witch, Richard’s idea is very simple.

Since she has a monster army under her command, there will not be hundreds of them.

Otherwise, she would have been unable to restrain herself and attacked the Long Eagle Territory.

In this case, it would be a good opponent for his militia to use for training.

Richard thought of this and was about to wave his hand to let Rhodes leave. Rhodes suddenly spoke again:

“My Lord, there is one more thing I need to report to you!”

“”Speak!”

Richard glanced at Cinderella who was walking over, took the wine she handed over and drank a sip, then said

“Last night, Harvey’s men came to me and confessed that they had followed Harvey and gained a lot of benefits.”Rod said,”What do you think is the best way to deal with these people?”

“Where are they now?” Richard asked

“He is being held in custody!” Rhodes said.

Richard shook his head:

“Just remember their names, and let them go to work quickly. Pay a little attention to them in the future. If they don’t commit the same offense again, it’s fine. If they do, punish them twice as severely!

Now is the time for Jianshe to hire people, so don’t worry about the past for now. After all, the thief Harvey has been brought to justice!”

“Lord, you are wise. In this way, they will spread your kindness among the people, and everyone will be grateful to you! Your move of using both kindness and power is really brilliant and powerful!”

Rhodes complimented

“Okay, stop flattering and do more work! I’ll go to the militia training camp to take a look! Do your own thing well, and you will get the benefits you deserve.”

Richard took two steps and suddenly turned around and asked:

“I remember you have a son?”

“Right!” Rhodes’ face was full of excitement.

Richard pondered and said,”He should be 19 years old, right? His current physical fitness is still a step away from my standard. Let him exercise well recently, and go out to work.

If his physical fitness improves in a while, he may be able to catch up with me to recruit the next batch of militia!”

Rhodes was so excited that he knelt down repeatedly:

“” Thank you for your support! Thank you, Lord!”

When he looked up, he found that Richard had gone far away, so he went to the prison happily, ready to release those people, and asked his son to work with them.

Previously, he had found easy things for his son, so it seemed that this training could not be neglected!

……

On the other side, Richard came to the training camp and saw them practicing with wooden sticks, so he clapped his hands and shouted:

“All the hundred-man teams, assemble!”

Charles and Helen saw Richard give the order and immediately coordinated to command everyone to assemble.

Soon, everyone gathered in front of Richard.

“Look at how you look now, you are so flabby, how can you look like a soldier? Giving you the title of militia is just like a monkey in a coat!”

Richard cursed

“From today on, I will come here every day to lead you to practice military posture and pace. Everyone must do the same as me!

What I want is a well-organized army with no second thoughts! Not a group of monkeys!

Do you understand?”

“clear!”

“Speak louder, I can’t hear you!”

“clear!”

“Haven’t you eaten yet? Are you women? Speak louder!”

“”Understood!”

The voice shook the sky, and everyone used all their strength, and at the same time felt the shock brought by the heart-wrenching and lung-breaking incident.

As their blood boiled, they also felt the heroic emotion.

“Very good! Follow this momentum in the future! My soldiers, Richard, must be brave and capable of breaking through the sky! Not soft eggs!

All of them, look at my posture clearly!”

Then, Richard taught them the general posture, military orders, distinguishing left and right, marching, etc.

These were also what he had taught his knights and servants before.

As for these militiamen, it is very simple to improve their strength. As long as they stay in the training camp and practice normally, their basic attributes will not be gradually improved.

Now Richard is doing this to improve their obedience, to engrave the habit of obeying orders into their bones and make it their instinct!

Only in this way can they react in the first time on the battlefield.

They are soldiers, they don’t need to think about what to do, they just need to know what to do.

Their body’s reaction must be ahead of their brain. This is the soldier he wants!
