A long-distance race of ten kilometers or ten thousand meters cannot be completed in one breath.
Three thousand soldiers were organized into companies, and a team of thirty companies began to run from the square.
There were also one hundred knights wearing armor and riding horses around.
When passing through the streets, they attracted a lot of people to watch.
At first, they were able to maintain their formation and accept the cheers of the people on both sides of the street.
But as they left the city, some recruits gradually couldn’t keep up.
There was no other reason, their physical fitness was too poor. Before, they were the poor at the bottom of the society, they were not well fed and clothed, so their physical fitness naturally couldn’t improve.
Let alone asking them to run ten thousand meters, even running one thousand meters would be tiring enough.
After running three thousand meters, several companies of recruits had fallen behind.
The veterans were also panting, but they could still maintain their formation.
When they were halfway through the journey, half of the companies of recruits had fallen behind the main force.
“Tom, I can’t do it anymore. I can’t hold on any longer.”
The new recruits had completely lost their formation. They were running around in a disorderly manner. A skinny young man of about 17 or 18 years old felt his legs go weak and he almost fell.
“Hang on! As long as we hold on, we will get the honor granted by His Majesty the King himself! Think about it, Miss Nancy next door said that she would only marry a brave man. If you get the honor, what will she do to you!”
Tom was sweating all over, but he grabbed Jerry who was about to fall, and said breathlessly
“Miss Nancy….I must get the honor granted by His Majesty himself!”
When Tom said this, Jerry was full of fighting spirit!
In the world of Gu Yuan’s previous life, running ten kilometers, not carrying weight, was just child’s play for ordinary troops, but for the poor people in this world who were generally hungry and cold, it was a huge pit that was difficult to cross.
But as long as they crossed this pit, they would truly enter the state of a soldier!
“You new soldiers, do you still want to beat us veterans? The honor bestowed by His Majesty is ours!”
After eight kilometers, more than half of the new soldiers and some of the veteran soldiers began to fall behind, and some veterans in the front began to exert their strength!
“Go ahead!! The finish line is right in front of us!!”
“We can’t lose to them! Let these veterans know that we new recruits are no pushovers either!”
Inspired by honor, money, and food, all the new recruits and veterans at the front fought to the last gasp to cross the finish line before the others.
“”Yeah! We are the first place!”
When Jerry and Tom were still panting and jogging tiredly, they suddenly heard a cheer.
This sound immediately startled everyone!
Jerry and Tom supported each other and looked forward.
They saw a company of more than ten veterans sitting at the head of Rum Village, panting and looking like they had just come out of the water.
There were also a few villagers not far away who looked at them curiously.
“They don’t have enough people! They are not the first! Only those who arrive at least 50 people at the same time can be considered the first!”
A new soldier shouted, and suddenly woke them all up.
“Where are the people in our company?!”
“Still to come!”
“Hurry and help them run over here!!”
All the companies began to check the number of people left in their own companies.

Tom and Jerry also checked the remaining people in their companies.
“Fifty-three! We still have fifty-three people in our company!! Charge! We are the first!!”
Tom was ecstatic, and he roared loudly, his voice extremely hoarse.
At his call, all the fifty people in his group shouted hoarsely, and one by one, they moved their legs, which were as heavy and weak as if they were filled with lead, and ran madly.
“Damn it! Go help them!”
The dozen veterans who reached the finish line first were extremely anxious. They left the finish line one by one to help those in their own company who were still outside the finish line.
“Hurry up, hurry up.”
An old soldier supported another old soldier and ran towards the finish line, but suddenly a gong sounded!
“”First to qualify! The fourth company of new recruits! Fifty of them have reached the finish line!”
A knight shouted loudly, causing all the veterans to beat their chests and stamp their feet in frustration.
It was evening, and in the military camp, the new recruits stood in line with their heads held high, while the veterans were a little depressed.
Because they lost a company of new recruits, and let another company of new recruits get first place.
Gu Yuan, wearing a dark military uniform, long military boots, and riding a tall horse, came over accompanied by the guards.
“Tom, look! That’s His Majesty, that’s His Majesty!”
Seeing Gu Yuan appear, Jerry was excited, and he roared at Tom beside him with great respect on his face.
“I know I’m not blind.”
Tom answered Jerry helplessly.
“That’s His Majesty’s guards, so handsome….”
The new recruits stared at the soldiers around Gu Yuan, who were dressed in black uniforms and had upright postures.
“”The fourth company of new recruits, all of you, step forward!”
A knight shouted, and Tom and Jerry followed their companions and stepped forward.
“Soldiers, thank you for your hard work.”
Gu Yuan nodded and came to the front of these new recruits.
“”We are ready to die for your majesty at any time!”
The recruits were excited and shouted in unison.
Gu Yuan waved his hand, and a knight came over with a silver plate, on which were neatly placed bronze medals.
Medals of bravery for recruits!
Gu Yuan began to personally give medals to these recruits one by one.
And every recruit who was awarded a bronze medal by Gu Yuan seemed extremely excited, and his heart was beating rapidly in his chest.
Every recruit looked at Gu Yuan excitedly with full respect, their king!
Personal worship!
Unconsciously, without Gu Yuan knowing, the soldiers’ personal worship of Gu Yuan began to spread.
Standing in front of the recruits was their king!
Tax exemption for them, led a thousand soldiers to defeat the 50,000 Nord army, their great king! At this moment, in front of them, personally awarded them honor!
The inevitable personal worship of Gu Yuan began to spread among the recruits!
【The military’s cult of personality begins! 】
After Gu Yuan awarded medals to the 100 new recruits, a system prompt suddenly sounded in his mind.
【The army’s personal worship of Your Majesty has begun to spread, so Your Majesty’s control over the army will be 100%】
【The soldiers’ loyalty to you will also increase day by day.】
【In the hearts of soldiers, Your Majesty, you are justice, you are glory, you are victory! 】
