Chapter 59: Campaigning

Sean is ready to select the best of the best and form only one army, as for the Skull Crushing Legion still maintains its original independence, this kind of heavy infantry can only give full play to its advantages in clusters, and can be classified into special legions, and cannot be regarded as common sense.

In addition, the corps also carried out a strict division of arms, divided into infantry, archery, cavalry, sentinel, engineering, and armament, and the proportion of the entire corps was 2:3:1:1:2:1.

To use a simple analogy, out of ten Eternal Night Army, there are two infantrymen, three archers, one cavalry, one sentry, one engineer, and one apparatus.

This ratio is not reasonable, the number of infantry and cavalry is too small, the number of archers and auxiliary troops is too much, the number of infantry and cavalry in the normal proportion should be able to account for half, and the remaining troops account for the remaining fifty percent, which is barely reasonable.

The Eternal Night Army can't change the status quo in a short time, after all, the main source of their soldiers is the Andis Mountain people, and what they are best at is bows and arrows, and those who are good at hand-to-hand combat like the Skull Crusher Army are a minority after all.

Those who are proficient in riding are even more scarce resources, and the cavalry of this school is still a short general, and they are singled out, not to mention compared with the Odin orcs who live on horseback in the Odin grassland, even compared with the cavalry of the Byron Alliance, they have a long distance.

The selection of officers of the Eternal Night Legion uses the same concept as the Skull Crushing Legion, free selection, from top to bottom, without exception, including Sean himself, whether he can become the top commander of the Eternal Night Legion does not depend on his own identity, but on real ability.

The officer selection scene of the Eternal Night Legion was much grander than that of the Skull Crusher, after all, they only involved more than a thousand people, and this time there were as many as 10,000 people.

"Name. ”

"Carlar. ”

"Age. ”

"Fifteen. ”

"Fifteen? It's not as tall as a horse's legs, who are you bluffing? What about registering your identity card? Take a look. ”

"Lost!"

"Why don't you make up for it, stinky boy, if you don't tell the truth, it will involve cheating, and even if you pass the age test, your character will not be good, and the door of the Eternal Night Legion will be closed to you forever. ”

The sergeant of the eternal night in charge of the selection squinted at the small radish head that was one end higher than his desk, and at a glance he knew that he could fish in troubled waters at the age of twelve or thirteen, and his body had not yet begun to develop.

"Okay! I'm fourteen and a half years old this year, but I'm short, and the teacher said that my growth was slow due to malnutrition when I was a child, and I've jumped more than half of my head this year, and I'll grow faster in the future, doesn't the teacher often say that I'm pregnant and born in October? The little radish head said confidently.

"Little calf, play tricks with me, believe it or not, I'll make a fool of yourself in your file, so that you won't be able to pass the next assessment, while playing, honestly stay in the sapper team for half a year, eat more meat and grow again." ”

No matter how good the temper is, there are more people who fish in troubled waters, and they are a little impatient, you just fish in troubled waters, at least the physical conditions are similar, many people are tall and big, even if they know that the actual age is not up to standard, they also turn a blind eye and let it go.

After all, there are many people who can't figure out their age these years, and if he puts the kind in front of him, he will obviously be derelict in his duties.

"Well, I'll be able to choose by the beginning of next spring. ”

The little radish head looked sullen, he used to be complacent about his late development and a baby face, and he was more bargaining in many cases, but now he finally tasted the disadvantages, and he was several months younger than himself and mixed in, and he was really about to be fifteen years old, but he had to turn it away.

"Wait, can you read and write?" Sergeant Eternal Night suddenly stopped the other party.

"Yes, yes, yes, can I be admitted exceptionally?" said the little radish head with a look of anticipation.

"Think beautifully, this is the highest final decision, let you wait for half a year, you will honestly wait for half a year, I don't see what I'm busy with here, since I can read and write, add a table next to it, help register, I don't have any eyesight, who are you a fool who brought it out, hurry up. ”

"Okay!" The little radish head who was caught was not only not resentful, but elated.

I was secretly ruthless in my heart, and I will be strict when I wait for it, not to mention that it is a year short, even if it is a month, a day, a minute, or a second, it doesn't matter if you are already full of beards, honestly squat in the sapper camp with him.

As a regular legion, the Eternal Night Army naturally can't wipe out all the turnips and cabbages, and announced a standard that is not too high or low, with an age of at least fifteen years old and a maximum of forty years old - originally Sean proposed that the lower age limit was eighteen and the upper limit was thirty-five, which was strongly opposed.

In this world where you can get married and have children at the age of thirteen or fourteen, in the eyes of everyone, the standard of eighteen years old is outrageously high, and the most important thing is that most of the junior army reserves are not up to standard, even Sean Marshall is not within the range.

In the end, the compromise was fifteen, and the upper limit was relaxed to forty, otherwise the Eternal Night Army would not be able to recruit even half of it, after all, many people in the Junior Army and the Junior Reserve had congenital problems and could not go to the battlefield.

Another difference from the Skull Crusher Legion's selection of junior officers, the Eternal Night Legion adopts a top-down model, with the Legion General being the Legion General first, then the Legion Adjutant General, the Legion Chief of Staff, and then the Regimental Captain, so as to push the deputy captain.

When they heard that the Legion General needed to run for election, not to mention the Bastille slaves and Andes mountain hunters, even most of the boys' army were stunned.

"What's the situation? The generals of the Legion of the Eternal Night also need to compete, what are you kidding? Do you still need to campaign?"

"That's right, there is no need to run for this position at all, Don is a well-deserved candidate, except for Don to hold this position, anyone who goes up, my brothers and I are not convinced. ”

"Who of the generals of the Eternal Night Legion is qualified to hold this position except for Sean? Who came up with such a brainless idea? Marshall or Ralph? They want to be on top and want to go crazy? With Sean here, where are they qualified to come out?"

"I heard that this was strongly proposed by Sean himself. ”

"What? Don himself brought it up? Well, it must contain a special meaning that we don't know, yes, maybe Sean will bring us a huge surprise. ”

"Well, well, that's right, Sean does things, plans and then acts, the mystery contained in it is not something we can guess through, not to mention that Tang's strength is obvious to all, he is the smartest and most powerful one among us, and it is also appropriate to win the position of general with his own strength. ”

"We have to believe in Don's strength. ”

"We'll just wait and see. ”

Sean's influence in the Boys' Army can be seen, originally a policy that was almost unacceptable, I heard that Sean pushed it, and immediately there was a 180-degree turn, from an unreasonable decision to a decision full of deep meaning and wisdom.

They can't understand it because they don't have enough wisdom, they don't see the long-term as Sean, and they have reached the stage of almost blind worship, to describe it in more fantastical terms, this is called fanatics, if it is a modern word, it is called fanatics.

There is such a group of subordinates, the advantages and disadvantages are divided half, and the benefits are self-evident, and their policies can be implemented, and the thoroughness and efficiency are absolutely beyond imagination, even if it is some very strange whimsy that does not conform to the mainstream consciousness of this world.

The disadvantage is that once Sean's decision-making is wrong, no one will remind him, and Marshall, who seems to be more rational, and Ralph, who has a detached personality, will not succeed, not to mention whether they have such an outstanding vision, let's just say that their ability to persuade Sean is seriously insufficient, and they rely on their eloquence to persuade Sean to fail, and in the end they were persuaded by Sean.

As for Sean's mother, Ms. Elena, she looks stern, but in fact she is very soft-hearted, especially when dealing with matters related to her son Sean, she almost unconditionally stands on her son's side, and she doesn't care about right or wrong at all.

This is a very dangerous thing, or that sentence, Sean is a human, not a god, it is impossible to be an unpredictable prophet, many things seem to be unpredictable prophets, but in fact, they rely on the experience of living one more life, plus a little luck.

But these experiences are a bit stretched thin in the face of complex political situations, because he has never been exposed to these things before, and he has learned them from scratch.

Moreover, the search for the mysteries of magic has already occupied a lot of his energy, and there is no way to invest too much in this area, and he can barely cope with it now, and when he faces a more complicated situation in the future, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not lead the people who trust him into the abyss of no return.

When entering the state of the game, everyone found that Sean is not only good at archery, but also not inferior in melee ability, maybe he does not have excellent swordsmanship, but excellent reflexes, endless small means and clever play, many people were directly blinded by him, and many knights who were proficient in melee were actually put down by him.

As for all kinds of deduction tactics, it is his own performance, whether it is Marshall's Zheng, Ralph's Qi, or McGee's fierce, they all collapsed in front of him, and in the end, the three of them went together, with Sean's double strength, and they were still led by the nose, even eliminated and beaten, and unconsciously the troops fell into a disadvantage and were ** off by the other party.

Of course, there are many people in it who are facing Sean, a little bit of a factor that can't let go of their hands and feet, and there is also a bit of a show, but Sean's strength is impressed by most people.

Sean strongly advocates the adoption of the throne through elections, and indeed has his own far-reaching considerations, his appointment as the general of the Eternal Night Legion must be temporary, and when the time is right, he will retire, and the successor will naturally have an example to follow.

It doesn't necessarily have to be through this kind of election to get to power, but it still leaves this possibility, putting a certain amount of pressure on the successor not to do nothing in his own position.

However, this is more of a pilot, and Sean himself has no bottom on what kind of effect it will achieve, so he can only put it on a long timeline and wait to look back and observe the follow-up reactions caused.
