Black Iron Crown

Chapter 182: Before training

Reiner did this for no reason. The sense of honor and pride of a soldier has a great effect on combat effectiveness. If all soldiers in an army have no sense of honor and are not proud of their identity, then this army is one. An army without a soul.

   Even if they are equipped with top-notch equipment, they will not have super combat effectiveness.

   This can be seen from the great army of Reiner’s previous life. Their equipment is almost armed to the teeth, but they are still losing ground when facing the Liao Jinren.

what is the reason? It's just that the most important forbidden army was full of ignorant family members, and the social environment that emphasized civility over military affairs made the soldiers at that time ashamed of their identities.

Later on, the profession that should have been respected by soldiers began to have a new name: thief and army, and later there was even a saying that it is difficult to serve as a soldier, and iron is not to be nailed. How could such an army have combat effectiveness? ? It is precisely because of this that the later Jingkang shame occurred.

Reiner absolutely took a warning. As a medieval lord, the army was obviously the force he relied on the most. What's more, Count Zhebo was still watching him. Although he had been defeated by himself, once he relaxed his vigilance, he still had troubles. It's a small threat.

   Increasing the salaries of soldiers is only the first step. Reiner's army will have a high threshold for participation. Anyway, raising soldiers requires a lot of wealth, and he saves himself money by maintaining a good soldier policy.

The threshold is higher, the difficulty of joining the army has become more difficult, the salary has become better, and the salary has become higher. This will make the soldiers feel proud of their identity, not to mention that Leiner’s army has experienced several victories. , This kind of pride in his own combat power is even more bursting.

   pursed his lips. After the village chief announced the dissolution, Klim returned to his home full of thoughts. There was still a slight pain in the wrist of his left hand. He didn't know whether Lord Baron's order included wounded soldiers like himself.

I picked up a spear that was placed in the corner of the wall, and kept stroking the barrel of the spear in my hand. This spear seemed to be full of scars, and even the tip of the spear had a few curled edges. .

   is this long spear, which helped him kill three enemies on the battlefield and obtained the rewards he is now.

His wife had just returned from patrolling the fields and saw her husband frowning when she returned home. She couldn't help but walked up and gently saved Klim's waist, and asked: "What's the matter? The village head, he said. What happened?"

   "He said, Lord Baron wants to recruit us militiamen who have been on the battlefield before, saying that he wants to bring us all into the regular army..."

"Isn't that a good thing? That's great! Wasn't your grandfather a soldier under Lord Baron? Otherwise, where did our family come from as a farmer? Although there is a lot less farmland from my father, this farmer's Didn’t the identity and the strong physique you got from the little food and clothing come from your grandfather’s fighting on the battlefield?"

   Klim’s wife immediately became elated when she heard the news, and she could not help but chant the past at home.

"But... I hurt my wrist. Will Lord Baron want me?" Klim is a little uncertain. Of course he knows the benefits of joining the regular army, but he just can't figure out whether he fits into it or not. Standards compliant.

"Why not? After all, you are also a person who participated in the battle! You are not a wound from the second half of your life, but it takes more than a month to heal! Think about Klim, you can get 20 acres in our family when you join the army. The cultivated land, plus the 30 acres of cultivated land you got by killing three enemies before, has made up for all the cultivated land lost by our family during the father’s time!"

   His wife stared at Klim's eyes, and was a little bit dissatisfied with his indecision. After all, being able to join the army is something that can change the fate of the current Morandberg people.

At the time, Lord Baron announced the treatment of the regular army during the first army expansion: "After being officially enlisted, soldiers do not need to bear any materials, and they can get 20 acres of arable land. Killing the enemy on the battlefield will reward each person with 10 acres of arable land and five Copper, tax cuts by 20% every year, can hunt in the forest in the territory like hunters."

   This kind of treatment seems to be nothing in the eyes of future generations, but for the contemporaries, it is definitely the top treatment in the world.

After all, other regular army lords do not need to undertake farm work and carry supplies, and their military pay is only very meager. All income depends on the spoils on the battlefield or extortion from neighbors on weekdays, or Subsistence methods such as sneaking and petting.

   And Rainer doesn't need it. What he wants is to let the soldiers have a good food and clothing, hone their fighting skills without distraction, and at the same time don't need to worry about them on the battlefield.

If it is like the army of other lords, not only will the soul of the army be shattered by the daily firewood, rice, oil and salt, but it will also make them develop the habit of dirty hands and feet, so Reiner does not hesitate to spend a huge price to cultivate the combat effectiveness of the soldiers. The sense of honor, or the soul of the army~lightnovelpub.net~Well, it is my fault. I will go to Lord Baron’s castle to gather in two days. I hope the adults will take me in..."

Teasing his four-year-old son, his heart is full of expectation. If he really becomes a regular army, then his son will surely be able to grow up without worry, maybe he can still pass. Plenty of Food grows strong and stronger than himself. At that time, he will spend money to make him a servant of a knight. If he is lucky, his family may be able to complete the class counterattack within three generations.

   Two days later, the militiamen scattered in various villages merged into the sea like a river, and gathered in Fort Merland.

More than two dozen tents are already being set up, and Sir Cod is responsible for bringing them together. Although Fort Merland has gone through upgrades, it is still a military castle after all, and there are not many places for them to gather and gather. train.

   They will live in these tents before Sir Cod completes the reorganization and takes care of everything to Sir Leiland.

"Hello... my name is Klim..." Klim was a little shy and introduced himself to the other eight people in the same tent. They have been assigned to a small team by Sir Cod, and they are future comrades. Because it was trying to disrupt the original organization and distribution, most of the soldiers gradually did not know each other.

   "How are you..." Everyone has no experience in communication, and can only communicate with Krim dryly and get a preliminary familiarity.
