Chapter 14 Deterrence

Facing the guards with surging intentions, Roning smiled and motioned for everyone to be quiet.

"With the approval of the Marquis and the Earl, I can only take 30 of you."

Roning thought for a while and said, "Now please come to the right if you are under 18 years old."

The crowd moved quickly and a group of people came out.

Roning counted carefully and found a total of 15 people, which was exactly half of the number he wanted to select.

"Okay, you are selected." Roning smiled.

People under 18 years old still have a chance to awaken their fighting spirit and become professional knights.

So Roning used age as the first step to select.

As for whether any of them can become a magician, Roning did not dare to hope for it.

Because the conditions for becoming a magician are very harsh, he remembered that it seemed that the mental power must be several times that of ordinary people, and the age was not 18, but 10 years old.

This group of guards has long been over 10 years old, and it is impossible for magicians to appear.

As far as the predecessor knows, the magicians in the entire Wushan City do not exceed two digits, and they are still low-level.

Professional knights are more common and better known.

"The rest of you start from where you are and run around the training ground. The first one to return to where you are can follow me."

Running is part of the guards' daily training. With Ronin's order, forty-five guards began to run along the edge of the training ground.

The training ground was not very large, and one lap was about 800 meters.

The good conditions offered by Ronin made the guards rush forward with all their strength. Some who did not grasp the rhythm were soon left behind.

Some who were slow and had no strength to follow up also gradually showed signs of fatigue.

Soon, the first person returned to the starting point. Ronin nodded at him, and the other party shouted happily.

Then the second, third, fourth...

When the fifteenth arrived, Ronin signaled that the others who had not reached the finish line could stop.

He smiled at the thirty guards gathered on the right, "Congratulations on being selected. From now on, you are the guards of my Baron of Shanlin Town, Ronin Firestorm!"

"I am willing to serve you, Baron!" The guards shouted in unison.

"I will definitely do what I promised you."

Ronin looked at Chahar, "Chahar, one silver coin per person, give it now."

"Okay, sir!"

Chahar walked down with the prepared money bag and began to give money one by one.

The guards who received the money smiled one by one. There is nothing more joyful than receiving money in this world.

And those who were not selected were envious.

While the money was being distributed here, two cavalrymen escorted five traitors slowly to the training ground.

At the same time, a tall man turned over and dismounted, came to Ronin, and performed a knight's salute.

"Nice to meet you, Lord Ronin. Captain of the 7th Squadron of the 1st Knights of Wushan Territory, Garman Stout, sends his greetings."

Ronin was confused for a moment, but as his memory floated, he understood.

The 1st Knights of Wushan Territory were stationed in Wushan City, and today it was the 7th Knight Squadron of the Knights that was responsible for the defense of the castle.

Ronin remembered that the captain in front of him was a senior knight and also a knight canonized by Wiggins.

The canonized knight was also considered to be among the nobles.

"Hello, Sir Garman."

Ronin greeted him warmly, "Why are you here?"

Garman waved his hand, and immediately the five squire knights kicked and made the five traitors kneel on the ground.

Garman cleared his throat, "Everyone listen and watch!"

There was no loudspeaker, but Knight Garman's voice was very loud, so that all the guards quieted down.

"The five people kneeling now were Baron Ronin's guards. Not only did they fail to protect the Baron, they even pointed their swords at him!"

Gaman's voice was serious and heavy, "The Wushan family does not allow traitors!"

The voice echoed, and all the guards were shocked. Such a thing actually happened!

Betrayal, how dare they betray the Baron?

"Such a traitor has no value in survival!"

Gaman snorted coldly and drew out the long sword at his waist. The cold breath swept all around. This was the fighting spirit of a high-level knight.

Ronin felt that perhaps the knight captain in front of him was a little stronger than his father Wiggins.

"Kill!"

Knight Garman chopped the ground with his long sword.

Puff, puff, puff...

The five knights raised their long swords high, and then chopped them down. Five heads rolled on the ground, and blood spurted out.

The bloody smell was everywhere, and everyone was nervous.

"It is your honor to be the Baron's guard. As your former captain, I hope you cherish this honor and be loyal to Lord Roning with all your heart!"

"If you have the heart to betray me one day, even if Lord Baron spares your life, I will not spare you, and the Wushan family will not let you go!"

After saying this, Knight Garman sheathed his sword, and his clear voice startled everyone.

"Garman, I'm leaving. I wish you all the best." Knight Garman bowed to Roning and left in a free and easy manner.

His followers began to command the guards who were not selected to clean up the bodies.

Roning looked at the five people who were killed. To be honest, his mood was still a little up and down. After all, he had just crossed over not long ago and had not fully adapted to many things.

But he understood that this was the way the world was.

Letting Garman execute the five betrayers in public was to warn the thirty guards he had selected today, letting them know the consequences of betrayal.

This was a deterrent.

Roning looked at Moster's figure not far away, guessing that it was probably Marquis Lulans who told him to do this.

After several times of getting along, Roning found that the old marquis was indeed quite good to him.

If his predecessor had been more motivated, I'm afraid that even with the Selena incident, the old marquis would have suppressed it by force.

As for Count Wiggins, he was neither good nor bad to his predecessor, but he was just irritable and a little stupid.

Putting away his thoughts, Roning took a deep breath and shifted his gaze.

"Okay, guards, you have one night to tell your family about this. Tomorrow morning we will gather in front of the gate of Wushan Castle and set off!"

He waved his hand, signaling the guards to get ready.

"McKen, the training of the guards behind will be handed over to you." Roning said to the knight beside him.

"Yes, sir!"

McKen bowed and agreed, but was a little embarrassed, "But sir, McCann has no experience in training teams."

This is indeed a problem, but Roning has thought of a way.

Of course, he has no experience in training teams, but on Earth, he has participated in military training, which is a rare and valuable experience.

Although the content of military training is mainly to cultivate discipline, Roning looked at the group of guards who left, isn't it discipline that they lack?

What's more, Roning had learned the 16-style military boxing during military training. Whether it can improve actual combat effectiveness is not to be said for the time being, at least it has the effect of strengthening the body.

"It's okay, I will teach you a set of plans when the time comes." Roning said to McCann with a smile.
