He asked if there's in opposition to training programs everyone was extatique expre for poor Jean who will responsible for allocating ressources and money 💰 from the already stretch treasury of the barrony.

But all he could do is lament his fate as he also knew that those expenses are needed if the baron take back his lost territory or protect it from outside invasion as for the quality of so called old form of training and tactics he knew nothing about he was a bureaucrat it the bone 🦴 and all he practiced is a longevity technique since his other talent were abysmal at best and he he didn't like blood.

And most important of all he was content with serving a powerful lord and leaving the fighting and death struggles to them.

Then he heard the lord say:' since everyone in favour with reforms I hope you apply them today to the existing soldier and to the new recruit when they join I announce this metting ended '.
