Seeing everyone with their heads down and kneeling at their feet, Zheng Xiyuan nodded indifferently and said coldly, "Get up." Today is a time to celebrate the return of the warriors and the kingdom's triumph on Penglai Island. You don't have to be inhibited, you have to have fun. ”

Although Zheng Xiyuan said this, his cold tone was full of coercion. The king can be informal, in front of his close ministers, and treat his subordinates well. But in this kind of public setting, this is not the time for you to show off your personality. There must be a prestige, so that others will tremble with fear. Otherwise, if you look like a good old man with a smile, some young people with ulterior motives will inevitably become bolder.

Sure enough, all the soldiers who participated in the banquet looked at Zheng Xiyuan with admiration, and some of the big nobles who had some power in their hands looked at Zheng Xiyuan's expression and were a little afraid.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" everyone said in unison before they stood up.

Qinghe whispered beside Zheng Xiyuan, "Please Your Majesty announce the reward for the soldiers." ”

Zheng Xiyuan nodded and walked to the main seat on the east side of the venue. Looking down at everyone, he thought for a while and said: "In the battle of Penglai Island, our army won a complete victory. The battle plan was perfectly completed. First of all, I would like to thank those soldiers who fought bravely despite the dangers. At the same time, I would like to express my condolences to those who died in battle. And for the families of the soldiers who died in the war, the title of martyrs' families was awarded, and in accordance with the practice of our army, a compensation of 100,000 yuan was given. In addition, each surviving soldier will be rewarded with 10,000 feather coins, and you will be allowed to spend a long vacation in the next half month. During this time, you will be able to spend your stay in the hotel that was prepared for you last night. ”

All the black-clad pilots present had excited looks on their faces. The first is to be happy that those dead comrades-in-arms can receive such a huge amount of compensation, and the second is to look forward to the next fifteen days of vacation. Not to mention the huge amount of 10,000 falling feather coins that can let them enjoy it. The fifteen-day free food and accommodation hotels promised by Zheng Xiyuan are all ultra-luxury hotels that have just been completed in Tianyu City.

You must know that the prosperity of Tianyu City today cannot be compared with half a year ago. A few nobles who had some money in their hands had foreseen in advance the grand blueprint of Tianyu City, the mainland's top gold-selling giant city, so they took out a loan from Luoyu Bank to establish these top hotels. Now the most ordinary room in it is priced at 100 Falling Feather Coins every night, which is equivalent to ten gold coins or 1,000 Heavenly Yuan coins. Fifteen days is an additional reward of 1,500 feather coins per person.

These soldiers had already seen the luxury inside last night, and being able to spend half a month in such a luxurious hotel was naturally like a fairyland for this soldier who was born in an ordinary family in the former Duchy of Luoyu and lived a hungry life half a year ago.

And some big nobles were secretly surprised by the magnitude of Zheng Xiyuan's handwriting. You must know that on Penglai Island, the Luoyu Kingdom lost more than 300 people, nearly 400 people. According to the regulations of the Falling Feather Kingdom, a black-clothed person will be compensated for 100,000 falling feather coins, and 400 people are 40 million falling feather coins, plus the 6 million falling feather coins for rewarding the remaining soldiers, which is equivalent to 4 million gold coins.

If you die 400 people, you will lose 4 million gold coins, which is simply a fantasy in other countries. But Zheng Xiyuan didn't blink his eyes when he said it, which shows how much money this king has made in the arms business.

They didn't know that Zheng Xiyuan did this completely because the number of people in the army was too small, and he prepared a strategy. It is true that the Kingdom of Falling Feather strives to provide extremely comfortable treatment for soldiers, such as food, clothing, and accommodation, as well as welfare expenses such as salary, compensation for war death, disability compensation, and retirement compensation. All of them are more than 10 times higher than those of other countries.

Of course, on the other hand, for the rank of soldiers, Zheng Xiyuan's treatment to them is also very different, for example, the compensation for a black-clothed soldier is 100,000 falling feather coins, while a blue-clothed person is dying in battle, and the compensation is only 30,000 falling feather coins. And a green-clothed person who dies in battle can only get 10,000 feather coins.

Strive to be able to use these material conditions to stimulate the soldiers, so that they have more motivation to become stronger. So you get paid more.

The banquet entered the second item, and at the signal of Zheng Xiyuan, Qinghe loudly announced the promulgation of the meritorious medal system of the Luoyu Kingdom.

This is something that Zheng Xiyuan has planned for a long time. According to the regulations of the Falling Feather Kingdom, the promotion of military ranks, such as a blue coat to be promoted to a black coat, military merit and any other factors are useless. It must go through a comprehensive assessment and evaluation of their combat effectiveness by the "instructor system." After all, there are a lot of accidents on the battlefield, some people have empty strength, but they don't have the opportunity to show it because of other factors, and some people have average strength, but they make great achievements by chance.

And if people who don't have the strength are incorporated into a high-level army and perform tasks that are too difficult, it will only harm them.

Therefore, it is necessary to elevate one's position in the army. Change into a military uniform in a higher grade color. Strength is the only element to judge.

But Zheng Xiyuan can't treat meritorious people badly because of this, so the medal is a more reliable choice.

According to the results that had been discussed with Qinghe long before the last trip to Heiyao City, the medals of the Falling Feather Kingdom were divided into five ranks.

From low to high, they are: Medal of Bravery, Order of the Star, Order of the Blue Moon, Order of Falling Feather, and Order of Garris Guardian

These medals were ordered when Zheng Xiyuan left the Luoyu Kingdom before he left and went to Heiyao City. It was used at this moment to award on the spot to the soldiers who participated in the battle on Penglai Island.

All the more than 600 people present were awarded the Medal of Warriors, and the pure gold medal depicted a lifelike tiger head, which was powerful and extraordinary, and was worn by several more prestigious nobles for the soldiers present. The soldiers looked excitedly as they caressed the medallion.

And more than 300 soldiers who died in battle were awarded the Order of the Star. The platinum medallion, with a five-pointed star engraved in the center, will fall into the hands of the orphans of the feather martyrs along with the compensation of 100,000 feather coins.

And although Yi Lian and the others also made great contributions in this battle, they had not yet come to join the military membership of the Falling Feather Kingdom, so they could not be awarded medals.

However, ten berserkers such as Streamer were awarded the Blue Moon Medal for killing countless enemies. A diamond-shaped medallion in platinum, hollowed out in the center, set with a meniscus blue gemstone. It looks delicate and precious.

Zheng Xiyuan personally wore the Blue Moon Medal for the streamer and other ten people.

As for the Order of the Feather and the Order of the Garris Guardian, no one is yet eligible for them. However, Zheng Xiyuan still showed everyone what the two medals looked like.

The Medal of Falling Feathers, on the square bottom of artificial heptogold, is inlaid with a streamlined font carved with black crystal, and the font is the word "Falling Feather" written in ancient characters of Falling Feather. The surface is plated with an unknown material to prevent the crystal from falling off.

In terms of its own value, the Order of the Fallen Feather is far inferior to the Order of the Blue Moon. However, the artificial heption gold used to make the Gundam, although far cheaper than platinum, represents the indestructible will of the warrior. And the word "falling feather" written in the ancient script of the country has also deepened the weight of this medal in the hearts of everyone.

The Garris Guardian Medal is also made in a similar way to the Order of the Fallen Feather, which is also made of artificial gold with a diamond-shaped underside, but the volume is three times larger than that of the Fallen Feather Medal, and the black crystal inlaid on it is hollowed out and carved into an elf-shaped heraldic pattern. It is the coat of arms of the incomparably noble guardian goddess \u2014\u2014 Lord Garris in the hearts of the fallen feathers.

Looking at this beautiful medal, a nobleman finally pointed to the black crystal and exclaimed, "Oh! That turned out to be the Shenyue Tan Black Crystal." ”

Looking at everyone's gaze towards him, the nobleman slowly narrated, "The Shenyue Tan Black Crystal is known as one of the most beautiful gems on the continent. Forehead...... The part of the font on the Order of the Feather is too small to be legible. But on the Garris Guardian Medal, Lord Garris's coat of arms is several times larger, and the unique luster of the Shenyue Tan Black Crystal is also obvious. Being able to hollow out such a black crystal the size of a heraldic coat of arms is worth 100 million gold coins, to say the least. In order to make the heraldic figure, so many parts were polished and hollowed out, and the quality of the remaining parts was not even one-tenth of the original mass. Really...... It's just too extravagant.

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly looked at the Garris Guardian Medal in Zheng Xiyuan's hand, but they saw that the coat of arms carved from crystal on the Guardian Medal did exude a different kind of light under the magic lamp in the hall. And that medal is about five centimeters in diameter. Above, the butterfly-shaped wings of the elf are beautifully hollowed out, and the lines that symbolize the body part are about four centimeters long. The whole heraldic body is made in one go, and there is no phenomenon of splicing, which is obviously taken from the same crystal.

It is conceivable if this coat of arms was really carved out of a piece of rough crystal. Then the length of the original crystal should be larger than the entire medal, and the length should be about six centimeters.

Everyone suddenly woke up, platinum, sapphire or something, in front of the Shenyue Tan Black Crystal, it was all floating clouds. Although they were not as eyesighty as the nobleman who recognized the Shenyue Tan crystal, they had heard of this priceless crystal. It's the top luxury item in the mainland.

The value of the five medals themselves is really based on their rank.

But a medal of 100 million gold coins, this is too big, right? Everyone couldn't help but look at Zheng Xiyuan, hoping to get confirmation from him.

Zheng Xiyuan nodded, what is inlaid on this medal is indeed the Shenyue Tan black crystal. The Xue family controls countless ore veins on the mainland, and naturally includes some crystal mines. Although the Shenyue Tan Black Crystal is very valuable, the price of the veins is very cheap because the production is extremely low. The Xue family happens to have one, and they have some supplies in their hands. So Zheng Xiyuan bought five pieces from Xue Ruolan at a price of 500 million, made five Garris Guardian Medals, and made eighteen Falling Feather Medals from the remaining scraps.

He smiled, "This is indeed the precious Divine Moon Tan Black Crystal. But even the most precious medals are nothing compared to the merits of the warriors, what do you think?"

"Your Majesty!" said the crowd convincingly. In the battle of Penglai Island, Streamer alone killed thousands of mecha on the other side, and also shot down a paladin of the Buffy Empire, such a feat, but he failed to get a Fallen Feather Medal. It shows the value of the Order of Fallen Feathers, not to mention the higher-level Garris Guardian Medal!

Only a treasure as extravagant as the black crystal can match the glory represented by the Garris Guardian Medal.

Zheng Xiyuan saw everyone's convincing expressions and nodded with satisfaction. He believed that as the status of the Kingdom of Falling Feather on the continent rose, each Fallen Feather Medal and the Garris Guardian Medal would be of historical significance, and even become priceless treasures, and if anyone did exchange them for gold coins, the value of the medal would far exceed the cost of its production.

Just when the Kingdom of Luoyu was jubilantly holding a celebration banquet. Above the court of the Buffy Empire, there is a different scene at this moment.

The eldest prince Remus knelt in the center of the hall with a pale face, and the last scene on Penglai Island made him tremble with fear when he thought about it now...... The white light curtain shrouded in, and tens of thousands of mecha armies could be destroyed in an instant...... If it weren't for his legendary mech\u2014\u2014Purple Eternity, he had a life-saving skill that could turn the entire mech into a hard magical amethyst at the last moment. In order to get a short-term absolute defense effect, I am afraid that he has become a member of the buried on Penglai Island at this moment.

Harrimanton looked at his bloodless eldest son, sighed, and the burly body sitting on the throne bowed forward weakly. The whole person seemed to be more than ten or twenty years old in an instant, and his sickly sallow face was gloomy.

An army of more than 100,000 mechas, a huge fleet of thousands of ships! Just after fighting with the Holy Light Empire in the north, and now suffering such a big loss in the south, these old bottoms of the Buffy Empire have been wiped out like this??

Forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart, Harrimanton raised his dazed face and asked: "At this time, there is no need for me to say more, you all understand what the situation is, let's talk about it, what plan do you have, otherwise the Buffy Empire will be in trouble this time!"
