Chapter 108 Echo (Part 1)

The Months of the Deo, and the snow has finally turned into streams which ran into the Redwater River

The spotlessly white landscape slowly faded away, and the trees on both sides began to sprout again, becoreen once more

The land to the east of Border Toas the land Anna that had already cleared of trees and snow, and because of this it had now been turned by His Highness into the teround for the First Army

At the practice ground, Carter was holding a gun and checking if the bayonet was securely installed

This was the newest invention of His Highness, but co machine and the modified snoder, this new invention seemed to be a little too simple The moment he had for the first time taken the neeapon into his hands, Carter knew almost immediately that it wasn’t a qualified weapon

In short, it was just a sharp iron triangle, with the middle line as the base, which had two sh it had a sharp edge, it was absolutely impossible to slash with the weapon – the blade was just too short, if it had to bend, it would immediately break It had hardly any tip to speak of while the other end was only around a thumb thick Even if he was able to attack an enemy, if he tried to slash out horizontally, Carter couldn’t say whether he would even be able to cut apart the enemy’s clothes

This weapon had only one use, and that was, stabbing And before it could even be used it still had to be connected to the gun Used by itself, even a dagger would be a better weapon

In the eyes of the knight, it was totally unqualified to be used as a weapon and a big waste of pig iron to create such weapon with only one type of attack If a blacksmith within his territory had dared to create such a weapon, he would have tied the

But even if it was such a bad weapon, Carter could still see His Highness originality and his passion for the all of the details For exaun and the bayonet The le at its end, as long as the two srooves and the bayonet was turned half around the barrel then the bayonet would becorooves and the iron pieces didn’t need to fit perfectly, if they were a little too loose, the gunner could just insert sorooves, and when it fitted better, only then should he rotate the bayonet In the case that they didn’t have any papers, tree leaves would also be okay

“Put the bayonet on the gun!”

When they heard the keyword, the gunning teaun’s barrel – until now they had only been able to produce forty of the neeapons and their supporting bags So the soldier who didn’t receive the neeapons had to put a short stick on their guns

This kind of action was al, and now most soldier only needed to adjust the bayonet two to three tihness’ words, the bayonet should only be used as a last resort He didn’t want his men to start a close coreed with this state as a man didn’t personally stab a weapon into an enemy, they would still be considered as children Only if they saw their first blood, would they transform from ordinary miners and hunters into soldiers

Iron Axe also stood ah he had previous claimed to only be a hunter, but from his skills Carter could see, that thebefore His skills weren’t any worse than the skills of any other knight

His Royal Highness had asked Carter to teach the soldiers how to use the neeapon correctly Having received this order, Carter felt a little guilty The bayonet was a kind of weapon he had never seen before, so it was impossible that he couldn’t kno to use it

However, after seeing the prototype, Carter was once more immediately filled with confidence After all, the bayonet was nothing other than the equivalent of a short spear In addition, due to its special blade, it was much easier to use than the pike

Due to its unique blade design, the bayonet training method has also become very special They didn’t need to learn how to split, lift, block or sith the bayonet, they only had to train one ht let all the soldiers line up and then began to teach the one foot before the other, bending the knees and then pushi+ng their arms forith their maximum amount of power

This kind of repetitive trainingSo Carter was a this kind of training exercise Before the winter they were all still a bunch of weak and lazy civilians, but now they behaved like a decent group of trainees When Carter shouted a command they would ie that they even putthan the squires he had previously trained Of course, if he were to give thehness, if he gave them “cold weapons”, he would still be able to defeat them with a stick in a mere three strokes But in terress is already worthy of acknowledgement

After an hour of training, Carter let the gun teahness the Prince also showed up on the practice ground, followed by a woht by surprise Previously, at the beginning of the training, His Royal Highness had infor today’s practice they would be assisted by a witch

However, Carter hadn’t known that the witch would be so tall, as far as he could deterhness But nevertheless she is still exquisite and good looking, Carter thought Then he caht and let the soldiers stand up, allowing thereet the 4th Prince with a salute

“Your Highness!” The soldiers shouted and raised their hands
