Chapter 13: New recruits training, tough soldiers! [1/7]

【ps: Today’s update begins! This is the first update, dear readers, please give us your votes!】

“”Line up!”

With a loud shout, the three thousand new and old soldiers in the square lined up one by one in company formation.

“I’ve told you so many times, you can’t even stand up straight! Straighten your back!”

A German guard soldier acting as an instructor went up to a new recruit who was bent over and kicked him.

“I’m sorry, sir!”

The new soldier was kicked and stood up straight immediately, looking nervous, fearing that he would be punished.

“I have told you so many times, call me instructor, I am not a noble master! From now on, there will only be officers in the army, no masters!”

The instructor scolded loudly with a gloomy face.

“It’s the instructor!”

There are three thousand soldiers, one thousand of them are veterans and two thousand are new soldiers.

The veterans are fine, they are just training the formation discipline. The veterans have been in the army for many years and have survived many battles. They are elite soldiers and the formation training is relatively neat.

But the new soldiers are crooked and crooked.

“Smith.”

Gu Yuan was wearing a brand new black military uniform, with a belt tied around his waist, making him look tall and handsome. He wore a wide-brimmed hat on his head, with the brim slightly pulled down, covering his eyes and revealing his high nose and sharp chin.

“Your Majesty.”

The German instructor came over.

“Let’s put the queue training aside for now and prepare for the physical training.”

Gu Yuan said

“”Yes.”

Smith nodded.

Gu Yuan’s plan was to keep only 2,000 troops. As for the extra 1,000 recruits, if they could persist in the physical training, they could also stay in the army.

“”Hello new soldiers, veterans.”

Gu Yuan walked to the platform and stood still, looking at the new soldiers and veterans lined up in a company of 100 people below, and he said loudly.

“I am your king, Gu Yuan.”

As soon as this sentence came out, the veterans were fine, but the new soldiers immediately became a little riotous.

“His Majesty”

“His Majesty the King has come to see us in person!”

Many young recruits were excited.

Gu Yuan exempted them from the heavy taxes this year. For these low-income people, Gu Yuan was a great king.

“Soldiers, you are all warriors who defend our country, but warriors must also be selected and tempered!”

“If you become disabled or die during training, the kingdom will pay to treat you, support you and your family!”

“If you can stand out in the training, you will receive a medal of honor from me personally!”

The honor is awarded by the king himself!

Suddenly, not only the new soldiers, but also the veterans were a little commotion.

This is the highest honor!

Their great king personally awarded them a medal.

“In the next ten-kilometer long-distance race, the company that wins first place will receive the honor of the Brave Company awarded by me personally. This is an honor that belongs to all 100 people in your company!”

“At the same time, you will be able to enjoy the best quality food in the next few days, and your salary in the next month will be the highest among everyone!”

“But please note, you can only be considered to have passed the test if more than 50 people in your company cross the finish line at the same time!”

Gu Yuan waved his hand, and several knights came over with boxes, which were opened in front of many soldiers.

The first two boxes were full of various meats, vegetables, and cheeses.

They all looked top quality.

In the past, only nobles could eat these!

The third box actually contained a box of gold coins! All the soldiers stared at them.

“The following words are for the veterans.”

“Ten of your companies are veterans of my Los Kingdom. After so many years of fighting, you are considered elite even among the old-style armies, but the new-style armies are different!”

“The new army is about discipline. If you lose to the new recruits in the next 10-kilometer race, you will not only not get any reward, but will also be punished! Do you understand?!”

Gu Yuan glanced at the veterans. The special structure of the square was enough to clearly send every word of Gu Yuan to their ears.

“Your Majesty, rest assured! We are all veterans. How could we lose to a bunch of rookies who just joined the army?”

“Yes! In the next training, let’s teach these new recruits a lesson! Let them know the difference between veterans and new recruits!!”

All the veterans were determined to teach these new recruits a lesson.

“The same goes for new recruits. If any of your companies reaches the finish line before all the veteran companies, you can also enjoy the first place treatment!”

This sentence made all the new recruits excited!

There is only one first place, but there can be more than one place to surpass the veterans!

“So what if I’m a veteran! I can still surpass others!”

“”Your Majesty is watching us! Long live!!”

All the soldiers were excited and shouted loudly.

Rotis, who was guarding Gu Yuan, was stunned.

Because he really didn’t expect that Gu Yuan could mobilize the emotions of all the soldiers with just a few words!

Looking at the excited and shouting soldiers below, Rotis’s respect for Gu Yuan increased a little more.

“Rotis”

“Your Majesty.”

Rotis responded quickly

“I said before that I would make you a viscount, but now I have cut off all the privileges of the nobility, so I feel that I owe you something.”

Gu Yuan’s words excited Rotis, and he immediately knelt on one knee and replied in fear and trepidation:”Your Majesty does not owe me anything. It is my great honor to be loyal to Your Majesty!”

“After the training, I decided to let you be the head of the regiment and manage these soldiers. What do you think?”

Hearing this, Rotis was stunned, and then he was ecstatic.

“Thank you, Your Majesty!!”

“Okay, don’t think it’s easy to be the head of a regiment. The new army is different from the old army. You should learn from Smith during this period of time.”

Gu Yuan waved his hand and said

“yes!”

“Now, get ready. All soldiers will line up in companies and start. The destination is Rum Village outside Los City!”

Gu Yuan shouted and announced the start.

Gu Yuan didn’t really want them to compete in the 10-kilometer long-distance race, but to train their tenacity!

Only soldiers with persistence and tenacity can persevere, and the rule that a company of more than 50 people can reach the finish line at the same time is to train their team spirit!

Morale, tenacity, discipline, team spirit, and collective honor are extremely important for an army.

It is also the essential difference between the new army and the old army!

If the casualties of the old army reach 20%, or even 10%, it will collapse, but the new army can endure 80% casualties and still insist on fighting!

Even fight to the death and don’t retreat until the last man!

From this point of view, there is an extremely huge gap between the new army and the old army!
