iron throne of ice and fire

Chapter 12 National Longbowmen

A month later, the sky was blue and the sun was high.

Outside the city of Whispers, the training ground of the Thorn Corps.

With Emparo's shocked expression on his face, Green easily drew the full bowstring.

The longbow in Green's hand is a special longbow with a pulling force of about 200 pounds.

call out!The bow and arrow shot by Green made a scalp-numbing sound, which was shocking.

Lena opened her eyes wide in astonishment, the expression on her face froze immediately, her small mouth opened into a big O shape, frozen in place like a wooden figure.

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

Green will spend a little time every day this month on archery practice.

Green's original archery skills are already excellent, and Green's physical fitness has been continuously improved in all aspects after crossing. Green feels that the day when he transforms into a super-horizon marksman is getting closer and closer.

The 200-pound longbow was specially made by a craftsman arranged by Green. Green estimated that under this special longbow, the effective killing distance is about 300 meters.

After more than 300 meters, the penetrating power of the arrow will begin to decline like a cliff.

After Green shot the arrow, the worries about the dragon hidden deep in his heart decreased a lot.

Green is very aware of how terrifying the dragon's flames are in the later stage. Of course, Green doesn't want to see the soldiers he trained with great difficulty being destroyed by a few flames from the dragon.

Green studied the genealogy of the Kleiber family very carefully, and determined that the Kleiber family did not contain Targaryen's dragon blood, so they could not subdue the dragon.

Now that he has confirmed that he cannot become a dragon rider, Green can only choose to become a dragon slayer.

The rational Green will definitely find a way to avoid a head-on conflict between his legion and the dragon. When it is unavoidable, Green himself is the most dangerous dragon hunter except for the cumbersome dragon hunting ballista.

Green can tolerate the existence of dragons, but when they threaten him, he is ready to destroy them at any time.

Start preparing now.

The carpenter will continue to make bows and arrows with greater tension. As long as Green can use it flexibly by himself, the greater the power, the more satisfied Green will be.

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

clap clap clap!
Vomit!

People around applauded the lord's archery.

Green quietly explained to the carpenter: "Make another one that is almost as powerful. The part of the carved pattern is reserved in advance in thickness. After carving, the strength of the longbow cannot be affected. For the pattern, the swamp marigold is the main one."

In the future, Green will often use a longbow with a pulling force of 200 pounds. Those over 200 pounds will not be displayed to the public, and will be practiced secretly.

The standard Kleiber longbow is too simple in shape, and Green will bring a bow when he goes to King's Landing.

Green's own longbow, without affecting normal use, will look much more exquisite with exquisite carvings.

Everything Green uses represents the face of the Kleiber family. In a world that pays attention to the face of the aristocrats, it will be much easier to cater to them as much as possible.

Green is ready to fight for world supremacy, to avoid unnecessary conflicts, and not to be delayed by some boring things.

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

Lena bounced and said: "Lord, Lord Lord! You are born with supernatural power!"

"Oh, according to your training method, the strength of the sisters has increased a lot, and the bow is getting easier and easier! Only me, I haven't made much progress!"

"Leina, you need to be patient. You are still young, so don't be too anxious. Moreover, you are a commander now, and you have a very high voice, which is not available to others. It is very helpful for you to command soldiers."

The diminutive Lena is indeed the loudest in the Thorn Corps. In this world where wars are all about roaring, as a commander, this ability is very advantageous.

"Well, my lord, just watch, I will work hard, unite as one!"

Green nodded with a smile: "I'm watching, we are united."

Emparo's voice came over: "Leina, line up for training!"

When Reina left, Emparo just walked in front of Green.

"Master Green, do you need to arrange a place to rest for you?"

Green shook his head: "No, I'll leave right away."

As he spoke, Green reached out and patted Emparuo's left arm: "You've done a good job. You've been working hard. Trainers are boring tasks that are repeated every day. You have to get used to it. If you persevere, they can survive more on the battlefield."

"I've always remembered, Lord Green, you said that only when you sweat more in normal training, will you shed less blood on the battlefield."

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

The Thorn Corps gained fame in the last battle. Based on the original foundation, they quickly recruited 180 spear wives from the original territory, plus the 200 spear women who were later recruited from the mountain savage captives. Now the Thorn Corps has a total of 500 soldiers.

As the head of the corps, Emparo knew that the lord was going to recover the old land of the Kleiber family, and the next war was approaching. Emparuo was very attentive to the training of the Thorn Corps.

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

Immediately after the war, Green established a regiment dominated by men and equipped with longbows. The full name is "Kleiber Longbow Corps", or "Longbow Corps" for short.

Green selected a few people from the Kleiber tribe and served as the commander of the Kleiber Longbow Corps. After the first enlistment, there are now more than 100 people.

In the future, the Kleiber Longbow Corps will be the most popular corps. As the number of longbows manufactured in the arsenal increases, the second occupation of most people in the territory will be longbowmen, the reserve soldiers of the Kleiber Longbow Corps.

For example, according to Lord Kleber's new law, the citizens of Kleber's territory must take one out of every ten days to participate in longbowman training. Green has made detailed regulations on the training content and standards.

Green also plans to hold a longbowman archery competition of various levels in the whole territory every three months, and prepare rich prizes to drive the enthusiasm of the leaders for longbow training.

This is exactly the national longbowman in Green's plan.

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

After completing the recruitment of the Kleiber Longbow Corps, Green established the "Kleiber Lance Corps" with 3-meter spears as standard equipment, referred to as "Lance Corps".

The Kleber soldiers are loyal and reliable, and they are veterans with rich experience in battle. Green regards the soldiers as reserve commanders.

The commander of the Kleiber Spear Corps was naturally selected by Green himself among the clan soldiers. After a period of recruitment and equipment replenishment, the Spear Corps had about 200 soldiers.

Kleber's territory lacked war horses, and it was temporarily impossible to form a cavalry regiment. The establishment of the Spear Corps was to protect the longbowmen in a dense formation during field battles, especially cavalry assaults.

In addition to the cavalry, Kleber's territory has a relatively complete range of arms. With daily training and strict discipline, the overall combat power of Kleiber's army has been increasing.
