Immediately afterwards, a team of fully equipped archers appeared in Zhao Hu's field of vision, surrounded Zhao Hu, and one after another sharp arrows were pointed at Zhao Hu, ready to shoot Zhao Hu on the spot. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Looking at the archers who surrounded him, Zhao Hu's expression changed slightly, and with a wave of the machete in his hand, he glanced at the knights surrounding him, and began to prepare to attack.

And those knights in the front row were taken aback by Zhao Hu's murderous aura and movements, if it weren't for the strict training, I'm afraid they would have let go of the arrows.

At this tense moment, a majestic and loud voice sounded: "Wait, tell him who we are and why we are, and ask him about his identity, don't kill innocents by mistake." ”

"Yes!"

A cavalryman in the front row, whose rank was different from the others, bowed sideways to the back, and then stepped forward and shouted to Zhao Hu: "We are the personal guard of the Marshal of the Augustus Empire, and we are chasing and killing the Rus bandit group on this trip, please report your identity." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Hu immediately understood that he had misunderstood, and preemptively lowered his hand, of course, the machete was still in his hand, and then said without arrogance or humility: "I am Zhao Hu, a resident of this village." ”

Although Zhao Hu's actions to lift the hostility eased the tense atmosphere a little, the cavalry, like Zhao Hu, did not completely relax their vigilance, and their weapons were still aimed at Zhao Hu as if they were nothing.

After the two sides reported their identities to each other, Zhao Hu turned over and dismounted, looking for Bill and Uncle Andy.

The cavalry sent some men to guard, while others dismounted to clean up the battlefield.

Bill and Uncle Andy are fine, which makes Zhao Hu feel a lot more relieved, and he begins to assist other villagers in burying the dead villagers together.

After that, Zhao Hu was taken to a middle-aged man by the officer he had just questioned.

The middle-aged man was dressed in a tight-fitting black military uniform, and the rank on his arm was a golden eagle the size of a silver coin, surrounded by golden leaves.

The officer saluted and said, "Your Excellency Marshal, this is the villager Zhao Hu who killed hundreds of bandits. ”

Zhao Hu was taken aback.

Although he didn't know much about the Augustus Empire, he knew that the Augustus Empire was one of the most superpowers on the continent.

And Ultraman is also the only country in the continent where the monarch is not a marshal, so it can be said that the middle-aged man in front of him is the first person in the military of the Augustus Empire.

This middle-aged man has the same black hair and black eyes as Zhao Hu, and although his appearance is ordinary, he naturally exudes a majestic momentum when he looks forward to it and asks questions.

When the marshal looked at Zhao Hu, his eyes immediately lit up, and he asked loudly: "Zhao Hu, are you willing to join the army and become my personal soldier?" ”

Hearing the marshal's words, Zhao Hu was overjoyed in his heart, knowing that this was his chance to move the continent and dominate one side in the future, so he responded without the slightest hesitation or hesitation: "I am willing!" ”

After receiving Zhao Hu's affirmative answer, the marshal smiled slightly and said to the officer on the side: "You can introduce him to the military establishment of our Augustus Empire. ”

The officer who received the order first saluted and obeyed the order, and then introduced to Zhao Hu: "The establishment of the empire is a five-five formation, five people are a team, five teams are a small team, and five squads plus a logistics team are a squadron.

And so on, and then up there are brigades, wings, brigades, divisions, regiments, and then up to the group army under the command of His Excellency the Marshal, that is, all the troops of the country. ”

Roughly calculated that there were eighty or ninety thousand people in a division, Zhao Hu was shocked by the huge establishment of the Augustus Empire!

I don't know how many divisions there were in the Augustus Empire?

The marshal who guessed Zhao Hu's thoughts said with a smile: "Tell him how many legions my country has, and the composition of our country's officers." ”

Although the officer wondered how His Excellency the Marshal could introduce his country's troops to a villager in such detail, he obeyed: "Yes, we have twenty legions. ”

As soon as he heard this, Zhao Hu was stupid, twenty legions? Each legion has more than 400,000 people, that is 8 million troops, and they are all regular troops! With the addition of city guards, reserves and other armies, the number of Augustus's army was deliberately 20 million, and according to the calculation of one soldier per 100 people, the population was as high as 2 billion.

Augustus alone has a population of billions, so wouldn't the entire ancient civilization planet have tens of billions or even tens of billions of people, thinking of this, Zhao Hu couldn't help but get excited.

As long as he can complete the task of clearing the base and obtain the super transport ship, he can transport his army to the ancient civilization planet, easily capture the ancient civilization planet, let himself have tens of billions of people, and solve the dilemma of his own insufficient population.

"The marshal is the supreme commander of the army, under the jurisdiction of the high command, which consists of the general staff, the military police, the logistics department, and three departments, each with a unit head.

"The chief officer of the corps has the commander of the corps, the deputy commander of the corps, the chief of staff of the corps operations, the chief of logistics of the corps, and the chief of the military police of the corps.

"For example, the chief of logistics of the wing, the chief of staff of the wing. The deputy commander and the chief of the military police will be abolished below the brigade level, and the logistics chief will be abolished below the squadron level.

After becoming a personal soldier of the marshal, Zhao Hu taught Andy and Bill the cultivation content of the first turn of the Nine Turns Golden Body Duel, and left them a few bottles of Forging Body Pill, so that they could cultivate on their own and have the strength to protect themselves.

Zhao Hu changed into a black military uniform, and also wore a bent metal strip on his arm, which is the mark of a private, that is, a recruit.

Black is the background color, the flag is embroidered with gold ribbons on three sides, and in the center is a silver eagle with wings surrounded by red leaves, and close to the flagpole is the number of the flag unit.

This was the banner of the imperial army of Augustus.

While getting the standard weapon, Zhao Hu also got a war horse.

After resting for a while, the marshal's personal guards began to pursue the main force of the thieves.

After the march, Zhao Hu found that there were more than 3,000 guards with the marshal, not the hundreds of people not long ago.

On the way, Zhao Hu learned a lot of information from those guards who intended to show goodwill.

The marshal's daimyo was Tra. Reinhardt.

As soon as he heard this surname, Zhao Hu felt strange.

Because the surname of the royal family of the Augustus Empire is Ryalhardt, after careful questioning, I learned that the marshal had the royal blood of the Augustus Empire, and this surname was split from the royal family hundreds of years ago.

Although nominally it has nothing to do with the royal family, the bloodline is the same, which is probably why Marshal Ultraman can sit so comfortably on the marshal seat, right? Zhao Hu thought so.

This time, the marshal will personally lead his troops to exterminate the Rus thieves, mainly two months ago, the Rus thieves ate the bear's heart and leopard gall and ransacked a village on the border of Augustus, and it happened that the marshal took his personal guards to inspect the border, and the angry marshal personally dispatched.

As for whether this will put the marshal in danger?

Not to mention the personal guards who followed closely by the marshal's side and exceeded a wing, that is, a few kilometers behind, there were follow-up personal guards of a whole brigade and regiment, which were escorted by more than 10,000 people.

What could possibly go wrong?

Zhao Hu, who was a little stupid when he heard it, asked: "How many guards can Your Excellency Shuai command?" ”

"A full regiment of pro-guard divisions.

Let me tell you, our ranks and positions in the Augustus Empire are separated.

The military ranks of our Augustian Empire are all-military, that is, whether you are a groom or a logistics soldier, you all have military ranks, but the troops are different.

The lowest rank is private, also known as the recruit rank, just like you do now. How do you identify a queue without a flag? Look at your left breast, there is the number of the unit you belong to embroidered on it.

As for how to find troops on the battlefield? You don't have to think about it as a small soldier, just follow your captain, he will follow the squad leader, the squad leader will follow the squadron leader, and so on.

What if you say you get into a scuffle and your commander is separated? Then you either run to the military flag and wait for the officer under the military flag to be assigned, or you can accept the command of the officer with a higher rank than you on the spot, if there is no higher rank than you, and the military flag cannot be seen, then you can exercise the officer's power to collect the troops.

If you want to be promoted after becoming a private, in addition to receiving meritorious service, you can only be promoted to a private of the first class if you have been a soldier for one year or have participated in one battle. Don't look at it, none of our guards are first-class soldiers, all of them are non-commissioned officers and above!

But I believe it won't be long before you know that the rank of a first-class private is two bent metal bars, haha. Chasing bandits is also a battle now, whether you kill the enemy or not, you can definitely become a first-class soldier anyway.

If there is no merit after becoming a private of the first class, then only after three years of military service, or after five battles, can you be promoted to corporal. The rank of corporal was a bent metal bar with a silver eagle on it.

The corporal is a sergeant with two bent metal bars and a silver eagle, and if there is no meritorious service, it takes four years of military experience or ten battles to be promoted.

Then there is the sergeant with three metal bars and a silver eagle, and if there is no merit, it takes five years of military service or fifteen battles to be promoted.

You see, I'm a sergeant, pretty, isn't it?

Non-commissioned officers at our level, corporals can only serve as captains, but sergeants and sergeants can serve as squad leaders, but it's a pity that we, the marshals, are guards, except for you, the lowest are sergeants, so we can only be petty soldiers.

However, when we go to the low-level units, it will be majestic, and the military system of the Augustian Empire stipulates that the military rank is the same, and the lower rank must obey the higher rank.
