Chapter 103

Xiao Yu stared at the 10,000 troops in front of him He secretly nodded in his heart as he are that Captain Hui kne to train soldiers After all, as a commander Captain Hui had participated in battles for many years However, they had soldiers now but didn’t have enough commanders

“Master, we have qualified soldiers but we lack cohout the Lion territory only the Xiao fa problem to find officers for our army” Captain Hui complained

In this world one had to be froround to become an officer or coh level posts At best, a civilian could become a corporal and head 10 men troops Senior commanders had to be from noble descent which was a tradition of thousands of years

Actually, such a tradition was held up to WWI in Gerdoent need for officers arose Roment need then he wouldn’t have become a commander

This tradition was still harshly kept in this world

Xiao Yu looked at the soldiers If he didn’t have good commanders then it didn’t matter how elite his soldiers were At the time when Soviet Union invaded Finland the casualties it received numbered at 400,000 while Finland had only 20,000 soldiers killed The biggest reason was that the Fins had good commanders

“Should we set up a military academy?” Xiao Yu murmured

“Military acadee and Magician College but there was no specialized institution to train military officers in this world

Xiao Yu nodded: “Yes, it’s totally different idea than a Knight’s College which trains strong knights We need officers with good command of the forces Theybut theyabilities”

Captain Hui frowned as this notion was beyond his understanding There was never such an institution that trained officers for the e the students would be taught e about the military aspects of the war It was the era of cold weapons so hts rather than the capabilities of their co on the battlefield

Most of the tie which would decide the situation in the battlefield

The notion of an officer without strength wasn’t quite sitting ith the circumstances of this world

“It doesn’t matter There aren’t children from noble descent in our territory so on’t be able to recruit…” Captain Hui said in an erated to Lion territory but all of them were civilians

The nobles were too arrogant to rate to such a remote and week territory like a Lion town

Xiao Yu took a deep breath: “Just pick soldiers to train for low-level posts while I will think of a way to find senior officers”

Xiao Yu didn’t dare to say that they should train civilians for senior posts as Captain Hui would immediately refuse to such a proposal Captain Hui also cahts As a noble he also looked down on civilians It would be very hard for hirasp a situation where a civilian has the same power as him in the military hierarchy
