Chapter 12: Training the Golden Horde

"The Golden Horde I've heard about them from the rumours, the most ruthless army in the endless mountains" The Old Man spoke as he drank another cup of win, Erasmus did not know how many cups of wine the old man drank precisely. However, he had lost count at about the twentieth cup.

"Ah we are indeed the most ruthless, but there is no point in being ruthless if you are not strong enough and this is a perfect time to see the Golden Horde as they are currently training."

Erasmus stepped out of the tent alongside the tipsy Old Man. He walked towards the training area of the army. They soon came upon a large arena where the military was training. The Old Man started observing the army getting rid of his drunkenness. After about an hour of watching the army, I could not help but ask "so what do you think of them?"

The old man took some time before replying "Most of them have good levels of power, they are strong individually however collectively a weaker army could beat given the circumstances and the tactics the weaker army uses. The lack of communication is thus training session itself shows precisely how they would "communicate." However, the reason your army struggled at the battle of Nillium is probably due to three things from what I have observed. The first reason is their lack of discipline; they seem to train so that could grow stronger and because it is a requirement. Right now this is alright and can still be fixed however if it is not then I can say that in the near future your army will collapse.

The second reason is their lack of physical power; I see that only a few people here have stable and robust bodies the rest use subpar skills to strengthen their bodies. This is unacceptable. The physical body is no more important than defensive and offensive ability. I would have to also work on that. And the last reason is the most dangerous in my opinion. Overestimation, your army overestimate themselves because they are undefeated. I have seen many armies throughout the years disappear due to this. I can easily take care of this. However, they only need to learn some humiliation."

Erasmus could not help but admire his wisdom; he was also happy inside that he had chosen this Old Man, of course, he did not show it on his face. Just smiling and saying " Indeed you are right I think you should start working on them right now, looking at the army still training Erasmus walked towards the arena and began speaking to the entire army.

"All of you gather here right now." I could see some shocked faces probably because of seeing me. After all, I was rarely seen around the camp as I was mostly by myself and I left the military affairs to Hybald, Yannick, Elmer and Pariach.

They all hurriedly stopped what they were doing and stood in a military formation. Raising up my face I said: "This man beside me is going to be your new military instructor, his words will be akin to mine, anyone who disobeys him will find themselves in a pit of hell." This was not a lie, and The Old Man would send you to the pits of hell if you were rude to him or did not obey an order of his. This was the reason that Hybald said he could be a bit hectic. After talking to Triton one last time, I left him to it and left the arena.

_______________________________

Lionel was standing straight right now as he watched the General and their new mentor. Soon after the General had left. Our new mentor then started speaking "First of all you all are to call me Old Man, I have one rule, do not disobey me, if you do I will kill you". For some reason, I truly felt that he would do what he said.

Then he started speaking once more "For today we will be on one thing. All of you have the spells that strengthen you. Get rid of them from now on all of are to learn the same technique. I will impart to all of you an ancient martial art called Vusi.

Vusi is a strictly defensive martial art that focuses on taking down your opponent by manipulating your opponent's limbs at their joints. The primary focus lies on both throws and sidesteps, and it often relies on the agility and stamina of yourself. For those of you who do not have good stamina and agility work on it.

The biggest strength of Vusi is the element of surprise via quick and sudden movements. By exploiting the rapid movements of your challenger, your opponent has no choice but to change their stance, which helps defend your weaknesses more.

On the other hand, the biggest weakness of Vusi is that different styles tend to gain the upper hand more easily. So if facing such an opponent, the fight may already be over. To get over this, every one of you will find someone who is the complete opposite of you by tomorrow, and they will be your new partner, Now get out of my sight."

While I was passing by the mentor to go home, I felt that the new mento- Old Man looked at me weirdly for a second, but it was probably nothing. What currently mattered more was how was I going to find someone who the complete opposite of me by tomorrow?
