Echo (Part 1)
Chapter 108:Echo (Part 1)
Two weeks have passed since the demonic month, and the snow has been transformed into a stream into the Red Water River.
After the white tulle faded, the trees on both sides of the strait once again budded, and now it has become green.
After the land outside the eastern head of the town was baked by Anna, it was temporarily designated by His Highness as a practice ground for the first army in the border town.
In the field, Carter Lannis held the sleeve of the knife and twisted twice to check whether the bayonet was installed firmly.
This is a new thing invented by His Highness, but it is too rudimentary than an automatic black pimple machine and an improved snow powder that can be blown off by an automatic black pimple machine and an ignition.Holding it in his hand, Carter knew it was not a qualified weapon.
In essence, it is just a sharp triangular iron sheet, with the middle line as the benchmark, slightly folded down.Although the blade is opened, it is impossible to use it to chop the target - the two sides of the edges behind the bending are extremely short, the front end is almost no, the back only thumb finger wide, even if there is no batch of nails of the enemy, cut past may not even cut clothes can not be cut.
The weapon has only one purpose, that is, to stab, and must be connected to a musket before it can be used, held alone in the hand, it is not even as a dagger.
Wasting a large pile of raw iron, creating a weapon with only a single attack method, in the eyes of the chief knight, naturally is an unqualified work.If there were a blacksmith in his territory who would dare to do so, he would have tied the man up and smoked it.
But even such a poor quality weapon, he can see the uniqueness of His Highness in the details, such as the casing card slot design, a port has two right angles, as long as the small iron bars on the barrel of the gun are put in, and then turn half a circle, you can fix the bayonet on the barrel.This kind of special enterprise makes the casing and barrel do not need to be very fit, too loose casing can be stuffed into some pieces of paper and then rotate, if not, the leaves can also be.
“With a knife!”
Hearing the password, the members of the musketed musketed gun team pulled out the blade from the bay knife bag across the waist and put on the barrel - the new weapon and the supporting knife bag are currently only producing more than 40, and the unclaimed ones have to be replaced by short wooden poles such as muskets for the time being.
This set of movements was almost practiced in the morning, and now most people only need two to three breaths to fix the bayonet.According to His Royal Highness, this is the last moment of struggle, less than a last resort, he does not want to see his subordinates into the white-bladed war.Carter did not take this into account, did not personally stab the sword into the enemy, still only a child.Only when they saw the blood, they could transform from a miner and hunter into a warrior.
Iron axe is also in the team, although he claims to be a hunter, but Carter can see from the other side, this person has definitely been specially trained in combat, the body is not inferior to the knights.
When His Highness asked Carter to teach the soldiers to practice assassination, he was a little disheartened, and the bayonet had never been heard of, and what to do if he did not use it at all.However, after seeing the prototype, he immediately became full of confidence, which was not equivalent to a short one of the long guns, and because of the peculiarity of the blade, it was much easier to use than a long gun.
The single only advantage of the bayonet attack method is that it is convenient to train, without chopping, squeezing, blocking, sweeping, and only one action, stab.The chief knight lined up all the players in rows, teaching them the most suitable stabbing action - standing in front and back of their legs, bending over their knees, and handing forward with their arms as much as possible.
This kind of repeated training is extremely boring, and what makes Carter wonder is that everyone is meticulously completing the stabs, in favor of them, who are still a group of weak and lazy civilians before winter, but now they are acting like a decent.Calling out an exit order will be executed immediately, and they will be even more worried than training.Of course, to put on them a sword, that is, the cold weapon in His Highness's mouth, these people are still under their own hands can not walk three tricks.But in terms of will, their progress is worth taking a look at themselves.
After practicing for half an hour, Carter sat the musketeers in place and rested a little.At this time, His Royal Highness also happened to appear at the practice field, and he was accompanied by a woman wearing a hood.It is no surprise to the knight that his Highness has said hello to him in advance, and today's practice will be accompanied by witches.
However, the witch was so tall that she looked almost equal to His Highness at a glance.Girls are still small, Carter thought.Then he asked everyone to stand up and salute the Four Princes.
“Your Highness is good!”The soldiers raised their hands and shouted.
"Hard work," Roland nodded, and as soon as he walked over to the knight to speak, a man suddenly rushed out of the line.Carter Lannis frowned and took a step to hold the prince behind him, his hand already on the hilt of the sword.And the nightinge is also the first time to come from the shape, caught Roland's arm.Whenever the situation was a little wrong, she could pull the prince into the fog.
The man who came out was the Iron Axe.
He did not run to the prince, but fell on his knees against the woman, not with the one knee of the mainland kingdom, but the whole person lying on the ground, his head deep in his arms, "the grown-up of the people!"
The gun training was suspended.

“Look, what’s going on?”
In the hall of the castle, Carter, Echo, and Iron Axe stood in a row, and Roland sat in the main position and asked with slight dissatisfaction.
Discipline, discipline!How many times, the troops should have the same discipline as iron!Not to mention seeing the patriarch, even if you see the king, you should not be moved.If there is a requirement, you can report it.At the loss, he was still very optimistic about the iron axe, and he couldn't help but sigh at the thought of this.In the final analysis, cultural quality cannot keep up, and the meaning of discipline cannot be thoroughly understood.
"Your Highness," said the Iron Axe, trying to get down on his knees, and was halfnd-brenched by Roland's.
“Stand up and say!”
"Yes," said the latter, swallowing his mouth, "the Lord Silver Moon is the patriarch of the clan when I was in the city of Iron Sands."
“No, Kabago, I’m not the patriarch...” said the echo quickly.
"No, you are," retorted the Iron Axe, "after the death of your father and brother, you were the patriarch of the Aosha clan from that moment on, according to Morkin's custom.I heard that you were sold to the port of Bishui, but I did not find you there, and I thought you were dead."
“But I—”
Roland interrupted, "Come one by one, iron axe, you say first."
“Follow me, Your Highness.”
...
The story wasn’t complicated, and Roland soon understood the story.
Echo was originally a member of the Aosha clan in the iron sand city, his name was Zhor Silver Moon, and her father was the patriarch of the Aosha clan.
Sand people are not a whole, and the population of Iron Sand City is limited, so every three years, the clans have to fight sacred duels in the burning land, and the six victorious clans can obtain residence in the city, while other clans live outside the city or pile up in the green sea.Although these settlements also have water sources, wild beasts and dust storms pose a great threat to the sand people, so every time the sacred duel, the warriors of the clans spare no effort.(Unfinished.
