Chapter 1352: Imperial Second Lieutenant
After the whole team counted the number of people, Tra couldn't help but have her blood vessels burst. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Now there are only more than 1,500 people, and there are more than 1,000 people, which means that it is only half a day's work, and the two brigades have been eaten by thieves. Even if you participate in the battle of a million people, you won't lose so much at once.
Thinking of this, Tra couldn't help but remember the culprit, and shouted coldly: "What about the people of the first brigade? ”
Hearing the herald's order, the remnants of Zhao Hu's brigade, who had long been nervous, immediately walked up to Tra and knelt down.
Seeing the first brigade in front of him, which was less than two hundred, Tra held back his anger and roared, "Why are there so few people? Where's your captain? ”
The only supreme officer of the first brigade, the squadron leader, knelt down and stepped forward, and said in a sad and indignant voice: "The captain led us to exterminate the Rus bandits, who knew that this Rus thieves group was pretended to be the mountain group of the Shanyue allies, and even their commander, the double-knife mantis-Tang Feng, also appeared in person, and after a hard battle, although they were driven away, the captain also died in his duties. Here is the list of those killed in battle. The squadron leader hurriedly handed over a report.
When she heard about the mountain group, Tra raised her eyebrows.
If what they said was true, it would be a great achievement to drive out the mountain regiment with a brigade and two hundred survivors.
However, he had been deceived several times, so he would not believe this matter so easily, so he took the report and looked at it a few times, and asked out loud: "What about your captain and chief of staff?" ”
"Isn't the Chief of Staff waiting in place to greet you?" The squadron leader was a little stunned, he thought that the chief of staff of his brigade had come here with the marshal's main formation.
"He said that you were attacked by 3,000 Rose thieves, and you need Ben Shuai to come to the rescue! Ben Shuai left a team to stay where he was to take care of him who was seriously wounded, didn't you see him when you came? ”
Knowing that the captain's chief of staff was a traitor, Terra had one last hope.
After all, no one wants a traitor under their command.
The squadron leader was taken aback: "We only saw the bodies of five of our soldiers when we came, and at that time we realized that Your Excellency might be in danger, so we hurried here, and we didn't see the chief of staff at all......"
Tra slapped her thigh and scolded, "Damn! ”
And the staff officers standing behind Tra also cursed.
The squadron leader knew that the chief of staff of his brigade was the culprit who lured the marshal into the trap, and he couldn't help but shrink his head.
I was unlucky, and now the brigade is a top commander with sound limbs, it seems that not to mention promotion, it is fortunate that I can not carry the black cauldron.
After thinking for a while, Tra said, "Get up, and wait for Ben Shuai to investigate clearly before making a decision." ”
The squadron leader can only take orders.
Watching his comrades-in-arms begin to count the results of the battle and clean up the battlefield, Zhao Hu's team could only stay aside with a sad face, and now they are suspected of not going, they have been disarmed and guarded.
Although the brothers around them didn't scold, the contemptuous eyes made them feel depressed for a while, and they could only curse the damn chief of staff there.
And the squadron leader tried his best to comfort everyone while cursing.
As long as the marshal investigates the truth, his own people will definitely be able to obtain innocence, and deliberately talk about how much money the two thousand township thieves caught can sell, and how much money he can share.
Compared with everyone's expressions not leaving, Zhao Hu didn't think about anything, sat there, and looked up at the sky silently.
As night drew on, the Guards Brigade in the rear joined the marshal, and the troops of the First Brigade who had been waiting to retrieve the wounded and investigate the truth also rushed back.
In a nervous wait, the guards guarding the 1st Brigade withdrew, and the logistics troops began to build camps and distribute food and equipment. All this showed their innocence, and the first brigade immediately cheered.
The next day, the marshal's promotion began to confirm his military merits.
The squadron leader of the first brigade was promoted to major and became the first captain, and the squad leader and captain of Zhao Hu were also promoted to one level respectively and became the squadron leader and squad leader, but what is surprising is that from beginning to end, there is no name of Zhao Hu, and the biggest meritorious person of the first brigade is still a private.
The promoted squadron leader and squad leader suspected that the captain did not report Zhao Hu's merits, but the captain swore that he had reported it and would never swallow the merits.
Everyone understood that if such a thing happened in the marshal's personal guard, he would definitely be driven out of the army, and the captain would not dare to do this. It's a pity that when I went to inquire, I was blocked by the marshal's staff on the grounds that I didn't want to do anything, which made everyone's eyes look at Zhao Hu strangely.
Zhao Hu didn't care much about this unfair thing, and still lived the life of a private with a relaxed expression.
After two days, the fatigue of the guards who had passed through the battle formation was largely eliminated, and the rearguard brigade, which had been ordered to hunt down the thieves everywhere, also cleared the thieves, and the marshal finally ordered to return to the capital.
And just before leaving, the marshal unexpectedly personally summoned Zhao Hu, who had been thrown aside for a long time.
Zhao Hu, who entered the handsome tent, saluted and said hello, and stood there quietly.
The marshal looked at Zhao Hu with strange eyes for a while, and then said: "Obviously the first meritorious service of the first brigade, but it has not been recognized in any way, do you feel that it is very unfair to you?" ”
"No, Your Excellency." Zhao Hu replied succinctly.
"Oh? Why? The marshal asked curiously.
"My subordinates believe that His Excellency the Marshal will not be unfair!" Zhao Hu replied immediately.
Hearing this sycophancy, the marshal in a high position understood that no matter what the other party thought in his heart, such a question would only have such an answer, so he smiled disappreliantly: "The main reason is that your origin is unknown, and Ben Shuai has been deceived by his subordinates again, so you still have to be cautious." So before, Ben Shuai specially sent someone to investigate the place where you fell and the place where you recuperated from your injuries. ”
Speaking of this, the marshal paid attention to Zhao Hu's face, and found that there was no expression fluctuation at all, so he couldn't help but continue with satisfaction: "It turns out that you are telling the truth, Ben Shuai thinks that no spy will risk the opportunity of his life to jump off the cliff to cover for himself, so Ben Shuai believes you." ”
Speaking of this, the marshal clapped his hands.
With the applause, two colonel-level officers walked in, one stood in front of Zhao Hu, took out a document with a beautiful appearance, and read: "Private Zhao Hu, to whom the Marshal of Augustus belonged to his personal guard, participated in the battle to exterminate the Rus thieves on July 12, 1737 in the continental calendar, and fought bravely in the battle, and won the martial honor of destroying nine enemies in World War I, and rushed to another battlefield in the afternoon of the same day to destroy the main force of the Rus Thieves Regiment, and obtained the military honor of destroying three enemies in World War I. ”
Hearing this, Zhao Hu couldn't help but muttered in his heart.
I don't even know how many people I killed in the next game, but you actually know? It won't be evenly divided among all the merits, right?
"According to the calculation method of the Imperial Army's meritorious service, it is now authorized by His Majesty the Supreme Emperor of the Empire to promote Zhao Hu to the second lieutenant of the Imperial Army according to Wu Xun. This decree was filed with the Reich Military Headquarters, July 15, 1737, Marshal of the Reich - Terra Reinhardt. ”
After reading it, the school official put it away after showing the file to Zhao Hu.
Zhao Hu was a little stunned.
No way? Cut a few people, and you will be promoted from private to second lieutenant? That's a few levels in a row, doesn't it mean that it is difficult for the Imperial Army to be promoted? How is it so easy to do it yourself?
And another officer came forward and said: "The oath taker swears that he will always be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor Augustus, and will always be the sword of His Majesty the Emperor, to protect the Empire, to protect His Majesty the Emperor, to sweep away all the Empire, and to sweep away all the enemies of the Emperor and His Majesty!" ”
Zhao Hu, who had only seen the oath-taking ceremony the day before yesterday, was still a little stunned, but reflexively changed the oath taker to his own name and read it out.
After the oath was completed, the officer helped Zhao Hu change to the rank of second lieutenant, and a vertical metal bar passed through a silver eagle, and then congratulated for a while before saluting the marshal and retiring.
The marshal saw Zhao Hu's puzzled face, knowing what he was thinking, and couldn't help laughing: "Don't be so surprised, according to the imperial army's merit calculation method: a private who participated in a battle was promoted to a first-class private, one enemy killed was promoted to a corporal, three enemies killed were promoted to sergeant, five enemies killed were promoted to sergeant, and ten enemies were promoted to second lieutenant." Because you killed twelve enemies, you were promoted to second lieutenant. ”
Speaking of this, the marshal saw Zhao Hu's indifferent look on his face, and continued: "Don't underestimate this requirement to be promoted to second lieutenant after killing ten enemies, so many soldiers in the imperial army, most of them can't meet this requirement until they retire!"
"Fifty people who killed the enemy were promoted to lieutenant, one hundred people who killed the enemy were promoted to captain, and two hundred people who killed the enemy were promoted to major. It's easy for you to do, but ......
"After a major, you will be promoted by how many tactical victories you will get, and after you become a major general, you will be promoted by how many strategic victories you will get."
Seeing Zhao Hu's confused appearance, the marshal couldn't help muttering to himself, shook his head and said: "In other words, the major and above are calculated based on the number of enemy troops destroyed, and simply replaced by the number of enemies killed, at least tens of thousands of people must be eliminated before they can be promoted from major to lieutenant colonel."
And the major general, to put it bluntly, is how much population wealth has been plundered for the country and how much territory has been occupied for the country. If you count the territory alone, you have to occupy at least a million square kilometers in order for a major general to be promoted to lieutenant general. ”
Zhao Hu's face suddenly realized, and he nodded, but he was sighing in his heart.
I didn't expect that I had learned how to pretend to be stupid in front of my boss......
The marshal suddenly groaned for a moment, and then said: "I don't know if you noticed it just now, the front said that you belonged to the imperial marshal's personal guard, and the back just said that the second lieutenant of the imperial army." ”
