Happiness means that what you think, say, and do is consistent.

To everyone's surprise, Overseer Eric, with his face as calm as water, didn't react to anything as if he hadn't heard anything just now, but the truth is, did he really hear nothing, and didn't react to it?

The reason why Bai Feng was able to serve as the overseer of the Eastern Metropolitan Governor's Mansion was because he had prestige and ability that ordinary generals could not match; the reason why Giscard was able to serve as the overseer of the Eastern Metropolitan Governor's Mansion was because he was the confidant of Prince Pros.

So, how could Eric be appointed by Duke Cullen of the Imperial Military Department as the high-ranking overseer of the Eastern Metropolitan Governor's Mansion? According to the information provided by the Hidden Guard, Bai Feng knew that Eric, whose family background was not inferior to that of the Onassis family, was not Duke Cullen's person.

If it weren't for Duke Cullen becoming Charlemagne's confidant and his daughter giving birth to Charlemagne's eldest son, William, how would the Onassis family have the glory and glory it has today?

The Eric family, where the Eric Overseer belongs, was previously a marquis family in the imperial capital, and in terms of status, it is more than a step stronger than the Onassis family of the Earl family, and for the imperial nobles who value the family inheritance very much, they will not approve of the new duke family.

From this point of view, neither Duke Cullen's Onassis family nor Bai Feng's Bai family seems to be recognized by the upper nobles of the empire, at least, for a short period of time, unless the dukedom titles of these two families can remain for a hundred years.

But the actual situation is not necessarily the case, because a family of military nobles like the Eric family still recognizes the family that is also a family of military nobles, and there is no doubt that Bai Feng's Duke Yulin won it with real achievements.

With no outstanding contributions or prestigious military exploits, it is not surprising that the Onassis family is not recognized by other high-ranking noble families of the Empire, and it is obvious that the other high-ranking noble families of the Empire here include the Eric family.

Letting Duke Cullen, who had never been on the battlefield and had no experience as a general in the army, be the head of the military department in charge of the imperial army was an appointment that was criticized by countless imperial generals and military families, so Eric and Duke Cullen were not all the way.

For Duke Cullen to appoint an Imperial general who is not a member of his family is enough to prove that this Imperial general is extraordinary, and as such a general, could Eric be a stupid man who doesn't know anything? No, he is a shrewd aristocratic general!

Eric, who was as calm as water on the surface, was shocked in his heart that could be described as a stormy sea! He didn't expect that the commander of the 74th Legion, Barsaromu, would actually become Bai Feng's diehard, and he was even willing to ignore the existence of the empire and the military department for this!

If it was the commanders of the Legion such as D'Ambrosio, Bella, Asassis, and Athos who were single-handedly raised by Bai Feng, he would not be surprised to say such words that disregarded the Empire and the Military Department;

Barsaromu, who was also the commander of the legion, was different, his legion was not a descendant of Bai Feng in the war, and his position as commander was not appointed by Bai Feng, it was the Imperial Military Department that formed the 74th Army and appointed him as the commander of the 74th Army.

You must know that the time that Barsaromu led the 74th Legion to serve under Bai Feng was less than three months after the full battle, why did Barsaromu, who should have been promoted by Duke Kulen, become Bai Feng's follower in less than three months?

Eric, who has a lot of questions in his heart, is not a general from a civilian background like D'Ambrosio, nor a general from a system like Assassis;

Unlike Eric, who was as calm as water, Kleffel and Barao, who were not experienced enough, immediately showed shocked expressions when they heard Barsaromu's excessive words, and after a short period of shock, they showed relieved expressions when they came to understand.

In their opinion, it is not incomprehensible that an imperial general like Barsaromu, who has a similar experience to them, would meet a commander like Bai Feng who was invincible and promising and treated his soldiers well, and he would show his loyalty and become a follower of the other party in addition to reverence.

Ask yourself, if they put themselves in the position of Basaromu, will they make a different choice from Basaromu, they themselves are not confident, plus they are themselves people in the military department, why don't they want Bai Feng to become stronger and stronger?

Seeing that Barcelomu's explicit statement did not cause any waves, the commander of the 77th Legion Felix on the side immediately stood up and said: "General, the 20,000 soldiers of our 77th Legion will always be your most loyal and reliable deployment!"

Immediately afterwards, Leopold said: "General, any order from you is the highest mission of our eighty-second legion!"

Even the three army commanders who followed Bai Feng to lead the army expressed their stance one after another, how could the iron-blooded five tiger generals led by D'Ambrosio lag behind? Without waiting for the other eager generals to speak, D'Ambrosio quickly stood up and said on behalf of the iron-blooded five tiger generals:

"General, the 80,000 soldiers of our 39th Legion, 40th Legion, 44th Legion, and Iron Blood Legion will absolutely obey your orders; as long as you say a word, even if there is a sea of swords and fires ahead, our 80,000 soldiers will not frown!"

"General, the 10,000 soldiers of our Fifth Eastern Legion swear allegiance to you alone!" Among the five commanders of the Eastern Legion, the first one to seize the opportunity to stand up and express his stance was actually Little Luke, which was a bit unexpected by Bai Feng.

Who knew that as soon as Little Luke's words fell, the three army commanders who belonged to Bai Feng's henchmen, Reishnu, Kettle, and Brauchitsch, said in unison: "General, the 10,000 soldiers of our second (third and fourth) Eastern Legion swear allegiance to you alone!"

"General, the 20,000 soldiers of our 47th Army Corps will be loyal to you to the death until death!" This is the statement of Commander Athos, who was born as a general of the 47th Army Corps.

"General, the 20,000 soldiers of our Lance Legion swear allegiance to you to the death!" This is the statement of the Captain of the Spear Legion, who is also a system general.

After some scrambling to make a statement, among the twenty-one legion commanders in the conference room other than Bai Feng, fifteen legion commanders have made their positions clear; there is no doubt that these fifteen legion commanders, no matter what happened before, will all become Bai Feng's descendants and confidants in the future.

The six Legion Commanders who have not yet made any response are: Captain Slim of the First Eastern Legion, Captain Montgomery of the Tempest Legion, Captain Donald of the Cavalry Legion, Legion Commander and Overseer Eric of the Sixty-fifth Legion, Captain Krefel of the Sixty-seventh Legion, and Captain Baraoh of the Eighty-sixth Legion.
