Chapter 40 Cavalry Drill
Back at the dormitory, everyone was a little tired after a day of sightseeing, and soon fell asleep. In the next few days, the teacher led the freshmen to visit the Bridge Pier Academy and Temple Academy in Emenas, each of which has its own style.
Bridge Pier Academy not only looks like a war fortress on the outside, but also has a semi-military management inside, with excellent discipline, and even the school uniform reveals a capable style.
The day Roland Hill and the others went to visit, they also happened to see a horse-riding showdown. There were about 200 students on each side, armed with wooden spears and thick swords, wearing full armor, and charging against each other.
When the sound of the horses' hooves gradually sounded and became more and more urgent, the freshmen watching couldn't help but boil with enthusiasm. The spears were dancing, the flags were flying, and the battlefield was crossed. The scenes and legends of fierce confrontation always attracted young people from generation to generation.
The rolling red cloak, the raised dust, and the undulating figure on the back of the warhorse, as the two sides approached, the sound of a lance breaking suddenly broke out, and the broken wood chips flew in the air, one by one students wearing silver armor. He was picked off from the horse, and the rest took out thick wooden swords and long knives and continued the melee.
The cavalry team continued to turn in a small range, drawing a beautiful arc on the field, with the tip of the knife facing outwards, and the cavalry team continued to cut the opponent's formation like the teeth of a saw chain. Neatly arranged, as the speed increases, they are finally arranged tightly together, advancing forward like a city wall.
This should be a wall charge. Looking at the scene in front of him, Roland Hill thought to himself.
Arrange the cavalry closely so that they are shoulder to shoulder and horse to horse, with no gaps and as close as a wall. This requires good training and good discipline to achieve. But the effect is also obvious. In the face of scattered enemies that do not form a formation, this wall charge is simply a one-sided massacre.
When facing this kind of scene as an enemy, it not only brings great shock and fear from the scene, but when the two sides are at war, an enemy has to face three spears or swords that sprint with full force at the same time, and if there is a slight flaw, he will be directly cut down. On the ground, even if you have agile steps and superb skills, there is no room for dodging in the face of the cavalry advancing like a wall. The heavy and iron-clad hooves can directly trample and smash your bones.
But now, this is still an academy after all. After one side conceded defeat, the other side also stopped fighting, and the cavalry dispersed, no longer chasing.
"Jalan!"
"Jalan!"
"Jalan!"
The students in the school field cheered. The leader of the victorious side took off his helmet and threw it high into the air. The people next to him also cheered.
The golden hair, the strong body, the raised arms, and the beads of sweat scattered on his forehead all exude a sense of lion-like power. The student surrounded by the center is the eldest son of the Duke Griffin family, Jie Lan. kindness.
He cheered and responded to his companions, wearing silver armor decorated with golden patterns. At this moment, he was the center of everyone on the field, the idol worshipped by many teenagers, and the object of admiration of countless girls.
“so handsome”
Lily made a nympho voice, not only her, but also many young girls in the freshmen looked at the golden figure with admiration. In this world, there is no Internet from the previous life. Among the opposite sex that these girls can contact and recognize in their lifetime, Jerain can be said to be a perfect object.
Not only is his family at the top of the empire, but his appearance is extremely handsome, his bravery and character are also dazzling, and people can't pick out any faults. Probably a girl can't refuse to be full of goodwill towards him.
Not only the girls on and off the field thought so, but also Jerain himself. You thought the freshmen just happened to see the cavalry drills at Bridge Pier Academy, but it was all pre-arranged.
No matter the time, the venue of the training exercise, the personnel on both sides, the tactics used, including what clothes and armor he will wear that day, it is all arranged.
Based on his own understanding of each other's strengths, the result of this training was actually doomed, but the reason for the competition was to let someone see it.
As the eldest son of a Griffin who has received noble education since childhood, he would not foolishly take the initiative to confess or pursue Roland Hill, because that would damage the reputation of his famous family. At the same time, with his lion-like pride, he would not allow him I am so low. But even so, he still wanted to attract the girl's attention, and after several days of investigation, he became more and more interested in her.
Did she see it? Although she had already spotted the figure with long black hair, she still had some doubts in her heart. Jerain slowly turned around and looked in that direction inadvertently.
Lorraine Hill stood with a few classmates in the stands outside the school field. Today, she is wearing a black dress, only the cuffs and collar are white, and the style is a bit British style in memory. Clothes that are slightly closed to reveal a slender and graceful figure. The wind swirls through the hair and skirt, and keeps fluttering in the air.
"Letis, do you also like the handsome senior opposite?" Alena looked at the exclamations of the surrounding classmates, turned her head and asked curiously.
"Why do you suddenly ask me this? Are you ready to laugh at me?"
Lettis looked at the roommate suspiciously. Although the two had been bickering for the past two days, Roland Hill felt that their relationship was not that bad. As she got along slowly, Alena found that Ledis was not the kind of domineering eldest lady. Although she was arrogant, her character was not bad. And Letis also knew that although Alena was born in the Southern Islands and didn't like to think about complicated things, she was still very calm and generous, and she seldom looked at others with prejudice, as if she could get along with everyone.
"If I were the Green Emperor
People from the country, facing the eldest son of the Griffin, it is estimated that they will also be moved. "
"But now I belong to Frost Rose's side. Not only are my relatives, friends, relationships, and property here, but if I get married, I will have nothing. Besides, the Duke Griffin's family is so good, let alone you not. People from the Green Empire, even the great nobles of the Green Empire, would have a hard time getting in."
"Is it because the big nobles and wealthy families have clan views?" Niya asked aside.
"Yes, the four dukes, but together with the royal family, they are regarded as the top circle of greenery. They will not allow their blood to flow out at will. There are strict standards for marrying a wife."
"If that's the case, isn't the only person who is a good match at school now is the verdant fifth princess Aveline?" Alena guessed.
"It's a pity that the two of them won't be together." A strange voice sounded beside the girls.
"I'm sorry, I was passing by too. I just heard you talk about it, and I couldn't help but say it casually."
A senior student in a white and gold school uniform explained that he has short blue and black hair, looks handsome, and is cleanly dressed, which makes many people feel good about him. Since Loren Hill is in a better position in the stands, there are indeed a small number of senior students parked here.
"Why can't the two be together?" Other students beside him asked curiously.
"Because there can't be two suns in the sky, they're both proud people, and getting close will make each other uncomfortable and burn."
