Chapter 482 Training and Returning Home

It's not that Davos has not considered the weak protection of the spearmen, but the spearmen are not in his future plans for the Dionia army. In his mind, this is just a temporary force.When it arrives, Dionia can completely train more powerful cavalry to deal with the enemy's cavalry.

"Blow the marching horn, let them run, and then charge again for me to see." Davos looked at the sky and urged.

Although Davos said so, it was still dangerous to let freedmen who had never used such long spears charge in groups with guns.Therefore, the instructors were at the front of the queue repeatedly instructing the recruits on the essentials of action.

"Woooooo!..." The bugle sounded three times in a row. Under the leadership of the instructor, the freedmen raised their spears with both hands and began to jog.

The queue that had finally returned to order began to become crooked as the speed increased, and the gap between the front row and the back row also widened.

At this time, the bugle sounded more urgently, and the recruits roared. The soldiers in the first row leveled their spears, and the soldiers in the back row raised their spears diagonally in order to avoid accidentally injuring the soldiers in the front row while running.Viewed from the side, the spears looked three-dimensional from low to high, but it didn't last long, and the formation of thousands of people scattered during the charge. Some were too far forward, and some were lagging behind, completely out of formation, and A few people fell down while running and accidentally injured several teammates.

Capps looked at Davos slightly uneasily.

Davos had a calm look on his face. He had changed the four-meter halberd of the Swiss in his previous life into a simpler spear, reducing the weight, but it was obviously not the first time for free people to use it and had never been on the battlefield. He thought about what he could easily grasp and said, "I have a suggestion. Don't charge in a unified large square formation. This is too rigid and can easily cause the formation to become disconnected. It is better to divide the troops into smaller units. , just like the staggered march of a heavy infantry phalanx before contacting the enemy, attacking the enemy's cavalry in this way can make it easier for the team officers to control the soldiers, which not only ensures that each local dense small phalanx can be integrated into the enemy cavalry as a whole. It also makes the formation flexible and can occupy a larger area. For the cavalry from Syracuse from the Numibian Plain and the Po River Plain, our super spearmen should also be more flexible in order to be able to catch them... "

After carefully listening to Davos's suggestion, Capps was greatly inspired. He immediately said: "Your Majesty, I will immediately let them train according to what you said."

Davos once again solemnly reminded: "Master Capps, there is not much time left for them to train. You must find a way to make these free people initially familiar with the use and use of this kind of spear as soon as possible within two or three days." Change of offensive formation!”

Capps nodded solemnly and strode onto the training field.

.......................................

Davos worked hard all day, and finally set foot on the moonlit night and returned to his mansion.

When I opened the door, I heard cheers: "Master... no, Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, you are back! Congratulations on becoming the King of Dionia!"

"Your Majesty, congratulations on defeating the Syracuse Navy and annihilating the Tarantum people!"

……

Davos became the king of Dionia, so that the slaves in his mansion felt that their status had been improved and they were proud.

Davos nodded to them one by one, and finally came to the slave master Ribazo: "The family has worked hard on you during this time!"

"Your Majesty, this is my duty!" Ribazo said respectfully: "My wife and the young master are waiting for you in the inner courtyard!"

"It's so late and they haven't slept yet?!" Davos was a little surprised, but more moved. Then he said seriously to Riba: "Let them all go to rest and blow out all the candles in the corridor. , put it away, now is the time to celebrate! And how can you waste it like this without fear of public discussion!"

Although Davos spoke euphemistically, Ribazo heard the blame in his words, and he hurriedly bowed his head and confessed.

"The higher your status, the more you should be low-key and cautious! You must keep this sentence in mind at all times and restrain them. Otherwise, if anyone goes wrong, I will settle the account with you first!" Ribazo was secretly alerted by Davers' warning.

Davos pushed open the door to the backyard. Azuna was already waiting there and said happily: "Your Majesty, welcome home!"

"Asuna, thanks to you during this time, Crystal was able to give birth to Eunice smoothly, and mother and daughter were safe. Thank you!" Davos expressed his sincere gratitude to the backyard supervisor.

Although Azuna was excited, she did not dare to answer. Instead, she said: "The two ladies and children are waiting for you in Mrs. Kristoya's bedroom!"

"Oh, it looks like it's going to be lively tonight!" Davos laughed.

"Your Majesty, have you had dinner?"

"I'm too busy. I haven't had time to eat yet. Just prepare two loaves of bread, a bowl of wheat porridge, and a glass of wine for me."

"Okay, Your Majesty, I will have it ready for you soon."

As soon as Davos opened the bedroom door, a figure quickly broke into his arms and shouted urgently: "Dad, you are finally back. I miss you so much!"

Davos smiled and picked up little Crowe: "Daddy misses you too. Let daddy see if you have gained weight during this time?"

Little Crowe immediately puffed up his cheeks.

Davos was amused and gently pinched his fleshy little face.

"Father!" A clear voice came from behind.

"Cynthia, I've only been away for a month, and you seem to have grown taller again." Davos smiled and said to his adopted daughter. He walked over with little Crow in his arms, pressed his hand on Cynthia's head, and measured it. height posture.

"Father...Father." Adoris who was beside Cynthia shouted nervously.It is strange to say that Adoris usually has a naughty personality, but when he sees Davos, he is nervous and obedient like a girl.

"Adoris, you didn't ask the teacher to complain to your mother, right?" Davos joked.

"No...no." Adoris shook his head.

"Father, school has been temporarily suspended." Cynthia interjected.

"School is suspended?" Davos was slightly surprised. After thinking about it, it was normal. He said, "You will all stay at home during this period. Cynthia, you are the elder sister, so you have to take good care of these two younger brothers. Mother relieves the burden.”

"Yes." Cynthia nodded seriously.

"Cynthia is very sensible. She has been busy and has done a lot of things for me and Agnes. But some people, let alone helping, would not want to go home and take a look even if they return to the city after being away from home for so long!" Davos looked up, and Christoya was sitting on the wooden bed, looking at him angrily, while Agnes was lying on her side on the bed, her face full of resentment.

"I -" As soon as Davos finished speaking, he realized that this was not the right time to make a self-examination. He immediately said softly: "I'm back now, aren't I?"

Kristoya snorted: "It's better if you don't come back. Once you come back, you will give away more than half of the money we have worked hard to earn in the past few years!"

Agnes secretly patted Kristoya with her hand. With a traditional personality, she finally looked forward to her husband's return and did not want to ruin the warm atmosphere or even have a quarrel.

There was no need for Davos to defend himself. Little Crow said loudly: "Mom, don't blame Dad!"

"Hey, my baby is still thinking of me!" Davos happily kissed Little Crowe's pink face again and again: "Let's go with daddy to see your little sister."

Eunice was lying beside Kristoya. She was awake at this moment, but she was not crying.

When Davos approached her daughter, Crystal reminded her hurriedly: "Be careful, don't scare her."

"Don't worry, I'm Hull's teacher."

"Doctors also know how to raise children?"

"I am the one favored by God. I know everything, including your... body." Davos leaned close to her ear and whispered the last word.

Kristoya's face immediately turned red, and she stretched out her hand to hit him lightly, and the previous grudge disappeared.

Davos gently picked up Eunice, and the little person was looking at him curiously with her big, bright blue eyes.

"Hey, baby, I'm your daddy." Davos said to her gently.

"Ah...ah..." Eunice screamed, pulling Davos's face with her little hands.

Davos let her grab it with both hands, turned to Krystoya and said with a smile: "Eunice's hands are quite strong!"

At this moment, Christoya looked at the father and daughter tenderly, and nodded gently when she heard the words.

"Dad, I am stronger than my sister!" Little Cloo said unconvinced.

"You are the brother, of course you are strong." Davos smiled and said: "Little Crow, look at your sister, isn't she beautiful?"

At this time, little Crowe still doesn't know what beauty is.He just nodded following his father's intention: "Well, beautiful."

To be honest, the redness when she was born has faded, and the wrinkled skin has been enriched and freed by sufficient milk. Eunice has a full forehead, bright eyes, a straight little nose, rosy lips, and supple skin. ...a beautiful baby indeed.

Davos turned back to the children and said, "Do you think little Eunice looks like her father?"

Cynthia shook her head: "It doesn't look like that."

Seeing his sister say this, Adoris also whispered: "...it doesn't look like that."

"My younger sister is like my mother." Little Crowe was the most straightforward.

Davos laughed and said: "Fortunately, unlike me, like Crystal, little Eunice will be a great beauty in the future!"

Kristoya rolled her eyes at him and stretched out her hand: "Give me the child. This is the first time you see her. If you hold her for too long, she will cry soon."

Davos reluctantly handed Eunice to Kristoya, turned back to the children and said: "Children, our family is more lively now, you have an extra sister. And here -" His Putting his right hand gently on Agnes's lower abdomen: "Your mother Agnes will give you another brother next year. As brothers and sisters, you must lead a good leader and take good care of them, you know!"
