Chapter 189 (1/2)

In the stable of the temporary Duchess house, the guys Longbottom recruited lined up.

This slightly shabby (of course, only relatively speaking) Duke's mansion covers a small area. In the imperial capital full of mansion, such a mansion can only be regarded as lower middle, which obviously does not match duvet's status as a duke.

But there was no shortage of horses in the palace.

When the original Rowling family withdrew from the imperial capital, the house was sold and all the people were demobilized. However, there were a lot of horses in count Rowling's house, which was the family of Wu Xun. All these horses were asked by Du Wei.

”You can choose your own mount at will.” At Longbottom's command, each face of these despondent warriors showed a surprise expression.

When you come to the tulip palace, you will know the identity of the owner. He is the most famous young Duke in the world! Think about the day before I was pitifully looking for food in the slave market, and now I'm in the most powerful family in the Empire!

Can you still have a horse of your own?!

However, Longbottom looked at these guys' hard riding, secretly shook his head, looked at Dewey beside him, and said in a low voice: ”Alas, these guys are only warriors, but they are not knights. How can we not ride horses in the northwest in the future! In the northwest, even children can ride horses. ”

Basically, the mainland warriors, as long as they have a genuine warrior level, have passed the assessment of the Knights Association. But for most people, they are just ”Warriors”, but they can't be called ”knights”.

The so-called knight, the simplest truth: you must at least be able to ride a horse, right?

But for these low-level warriors. They can't even support themselves. Where can they have money to support a horse of their own? It costs more to feed a horse than to feed a man!

The decline of the Warriors is the current situation in the mainland. The ”Knights Association”, once a powerful organization juxtaposed with the magic trade union in the mainland, has now fallen to the top. The Knights' Association is responsible for assessing and issuing Knights' rank badges.

But most martial arts practitioners can't even afford to raise horses... They only know martial arts skills. I can't ride a horse.

Therefore, on the mainland, it has become a habit to separate the ”samurai” and ”Knight” groups.

These guys in front of us are obviously warriors, not Knights

”Well?” All of a sudden, Longbottom's eyes brightened, and he saw the last old smoker to turn over. This is the strongest guy who has been recruited here today. He can ride a horse! And it seems that riding is pretty good. He has a clean and neat posture. At first glance, they are strictly trained. And the way he rode on the horse... His upper body stopped straight, and his legs didn't hold the horse's belly like those other rookies. He looked very relaxed.

”This guy is a knight.” Longbutton was more and more curious about the old smoke: ”he's good at martial arts and riding skills. People who have such strength and such riding skills. How could it be reduced to the slave market for food? ”

That's the same question Dewey wanted to ask.

Although the temporary Duchess house is small, as a typical noble mansion, some basic facilities are also available. For example, although it is small in scale. But there are plenty of racetracks for now.

After leaving the rookies to practice riding happily, Longbottom called Lao Yan to the room alone. He was also waiting in the room, as well as Dewey.

Lao Yan's look was a little complicated. He probably thought about what the Duke was doing when he called himself in.

Sure enough

”Name your service, Knight!” Longbutton didn't wait for Laoyan to stand up, but suddenly stood up, and then cried out.

It's almost like conditioning. As a result of years of training, Lao Yan could not help but stand up straight, his legs and hands together, stamped his boots, then raised his chest and cried out: ”captain of the sixth unit of the fourth cavalry of the royal guards of the royal guards of the royal guards of the royal city guards...”

Speaking of the end, Lao Yan suddenly responded that he was not in the imperial army now.

However, Longbottom and Dewey are satisfied with the result.

Looking at the unnatural expression on the guy's face, Dewey said with a smile: ”you used to be an officer of the imperial guards?”

”... yes.”
