Early in the morning of the second day, or more accurately, in the wee hours of the morning, the training ground was already filled with recruits.
When Elvin arrived half an hour earlier than usual, he was shocked by the scene in front of him. Obviously, he had not experienced the struggle in the mud in his two lifetimes, so he underestimated their desire for swordsmanship or to change their fate.
In fact, almost every country on the continent had their own military swordsmanship, but other than the simple and straightforward commonalities, each had their own emphasis.
As a maritime country, Faletis's military swordsmanship was modified according to the user's characteristics, and was very suitable for naval combat.
This was because the most suitable weapon for using this kind of swordsmanship was the naval saber of the Kingdom of Faletis. It was a long, straight saber with a single edge. It could be used to stab and slash. Even a novice marine would be able to wield it after a short period of training.
So, instead of calling it "military swordsmanship", it was more appropriate to call it "Faletis Saber Technique".
After Elvin arrived, under the eager gaze of a group of people, he gave each recruit a wooden training saber, and got them to line up in a neat square formation, and the swordsmanship training officially began.
At this time, no one doubted whether Elvin, who was also a recruit in the same period as them, had the ability to teach them. Although Eugene wanted to slack off, he didn't want to shoot himself in the foot. Through the public sparring with Elvin two days ago, he had completely conquered the recruits with his exquisite swordsmanship. At the same time, he had also made them understand how big the gap between them was.
At this time, no one doubted Elvin.
The instructor started with how to hold the sword.
At this time, Elvin realized that this task was not that difficult, and was not as boring as he thought.
"Hold the sword firmly, but don't hold it too tightly, or your arm will quickly tire. Only when chopping and blocking, you need to hold your hand tightly. How to relax your hand after completing an action is an art, also known as the soft hand.
This is a necessary talent for learning swordsmanship, it will make your hand more agile, and at the same time not tired and stiff. "
"Loosen it, loosen it a little more."
"Don't keep your arm too stiff, don't keep your eyes on the sword."
After making sure that everyone could hold the sword properly, Elvin continued to explain the three defensive moves in the "Faletis Saber Technique":
High defensive move, outer defensive move, and inner defensive move.
Out of selfishness, Elvin directly called Gary, who he knew the earliest and had the best relationship with, and let him cooperate with him to demonstrate.
"Boss Elvin!" Gary called out to Elvin as he walked to the front of the formation. However, he was at a loss of what to do as he was being stared at by many pairs of eyes.
Gary was tall and rough and tall, but he was of the same age as Elvin, and even younger than Elvin by a month.
Elvin, Elelelvin, Elelelelvin, Elvin, Elof Of Of, Elelof..
Elof of of the time of the, Of the of the of, of the of the of of of of.
Elvin was determined to change Gary's shyness from now on because he called him "Boss".
He signaled Gary not to be nervous and began to demonstrate one move after another as he explained.
"High defensive move can be used to deal with all slashes on the body and arms, and the sword is also in the best position to defend the head and feet. When the opponent's sword attacks, you only need to slightly raise your hand or lower the position of your hand to block the opponent. "
"When the hand is on the right side, it's called outer defensive move, and when the hand is on the left side, it's called inner defensive move. In these two defensive moves, although the side of the body will be exposed to the opponent, but you can't force the opponent to only attack when you are in a good position, so you must be proficient in every defensive move! "
"Gary, high defensive move …"
Pa-
Pa-
As the wooden swords clashed continuously, Gary had to use every defensive move three times before he stopped.
This was the main point of the "defensive moves". All defensive moves must be completed with the strong part of the sword, which is the part near the guard that hasn't been sharpened. It is usually called the "strong blade", and the part corresponding to the sharpened tip is called the "weak blade".
Previously, in the battle between Elvin and Billy The Bear, he had used the "strong blade" to deflect the opponent's scimitar.
The last part of the lesson was how to attack. It was the simplest, but also the most complicated.
Stabbing and slashing were the most basic moves, but they could only be memorized by the body through hard practice day after day. There were no shortcuts.
But Elvin also imparted his understanding of swordsmanship to the recruits, hoping that they could learn something.
"Remember the main point of the offensive moves: When attacking, never let your feet touch the ground before the sword reaches the target. Never let the tip of the sword leave the best path to attack!
Only in this way can you stab your opponent faster and save your life. "
Holding the sword, attacking, and defending. There weren't even any feints that were common in swordsmanship. Military swordsmanship was simple and direct!
Finally, Elvin held the sword with one hand and showed the recruits how to use strength in a proper stabbing and slashing.
Sss-
Just a casual swing of the sword and the blade cut through the air, forming a cyclone. In the midst of the ear-piercing sound, Elvin slowly walked down the stage.
"So strong!"
"His body isn't strong, but he has such strength. Can we do it too?"
"Sooner or later, I will be this strong too."
No longer caring about the emotions of the recruits, Elvin prepared to continue teaching them this basic knowledge for three days. Then, he would let them slowly turn these moves into their instincts in actual combat training.
After that, he could use their performance in actual combat to find and fix their weaknesses. Elvin even prepared to use his data analysis to correct each and every one of them.
He had been a commoner in his previous life, and in this life, he was only a fallen noble with an empty title. Elvin had also experienced the pain of class rigidity. Whether it was out of sympathy or his responsibility as a substitute instructor, Elvin was willing to do his best to help them.
Of course, collecting the data of every recruit in the same batch to enrich the database was also necessary. (̄ ▽ ̄)/
.....
Two weeks later, when Major Eugene suddenly appeared out of nowhere, he was surprised to find that almost all the recruits in the training camp had mastered the "Faletis Military Swordsmanship".
Although from his perspective as a Knight, it was still too immature to be used in actual combat, but it could be said that they had a solid foundation.
Major Eugene was puzzled. "Are all of the new recruits so talented? Why didn't I see it before? "
After he took over the rest of the training, he realized that it was all an illusion. It was still the same group of blockheads.
But it no longer had anything to do with Elvin.
In these two weeks of substitute teaching, Elvin's attitude had a subtle change, from a little impatient at the beginning to a wholehearted devotion. Because in the process of teaching the recruits, in addition to receiving their sincere gratitude, he finally understood what it meant to "teach and learn"!
Everyone's body condition was different, the perspective of cognition was different, and the way of thinking was different. This required the instructor to fully understand his own knowledge to be able to solve every student's problem.
In this process, Elvin found that his understanding of the two swordsmanship "White Sail Swordsmanship" and "Military Swordsmanship" had improved by leaps and bounds. Even his physical fitness that had not improved for a long time had changed.
Name: Elvin Garrett
Gender: Male
Attributes: Physique 0.9 + 0.01
Strength 0.86 + 0.02
Agility 0.93
Intelligence 0.9
Skills: White Sail Swordsmanship (Proficient, includes a set of breathing techniques, swordsmanship, and potions) Military Swordsmanship (Proficient, includes a set of breathing techniques, swordsmanship, and potions) Archery (Proficient) Grammar (Proficient) Nautical Knowledge (Basic) Pharmaceutics (Basic)
His Physique increased by 0.01 and finally reached 0.91. His Strength also increased by 0.02 and reached 0.88. Unlike the difficulty of breaking through the White Sail Swordsmanship, the Military Swordsmanship easily reached the Proficient level.
The "Military Swordsmanship" that Eugene taught Elvin included a full set of swordsmanship, breathing techniques, and a set of potions. In principle, it was also a "transcendent swordsmanship" that could lead directly to the Transcendent level.
This was also a hidden benefit for the "badge students."
However, after comparison, Elvin found that although the "Military Swordsmanship" was easy to learn, it was more focused on fighting on the battlefield. The most important transcendent qualitative change was not satisfactory.
In terms of the set of breathing techniques, the "Military Swordsmanship", which only had five variations, and the "White Sail Swordsmanship", which had twelve variations, were worlds apart.
Moreover, Eugene authorized Elvin to directly teach the recruits only the swordsmanship, but strictly prohibited him from freely spreading the set of breathing techniques and potions.
Just like how there were "techniques" but not "laws," such a policy by the upper echelons of the navy almost completely cut off the possibility of directly stepping into the Transcendent level.
