"Chapter 50: Distributing Equipment"

When we have to speak out and act on it, silence becomes the most cowardly act.

Seeing Bai Feng shift the topic to the improvement of the legion's combat power, Eric frowned and said, "Lord Governor, it takes time to improve the quality of the soldiers, and we may be able to do this, but the orc army may not give us enough time. ”

"In addition, the replacement of weapons and equipment and the promotion of new tactics you mentioned are really a good way that is difficult for us to implement; the quality of the weapons and equipment provided by the Imperial Military Department is that you know, Lord Governor, I am afraid that it is not as good as the standard equipment of the Eastern Legion under your command. ”

"Overseer Eric, if you say your legion, you will say your legion, don't involve us in the Eastern Legion. The commander of the First Eastern Legion, Slim, said in an unkind tone: "Our Eastern Legion is the General's Eastern Legion, not the Eastern Legion of the Imperial Military Department!"

In order to make up for his hesitation when he just made a statement, Slim even dared to say such a rebellious remark, which shows that the Empire has no place in his heart, in fact, how can he, who has been in the Wind Thieves Regiment, have any loyalty to the Empire?

After staring deeply at Slim, Overseer Eric continued in an unchanged tone, "The promotion of new tactics is even less feasible; after all, the standard tactics used by the Imperial Legion today have been developed by the Imperial Army for hundreds of years. ”

"The standard tactics that the empire has explored for hundreds of years may not be the best tactics, are they?" Regarding Eric's overly pessimistic behavior, Bai Feng could not deny it: "For example, the new tactics used by the various legions under my command, I don't know what the Overseer of Eric thinks?"

"Prime Minister, with all due respect. Eric shook his head slightly, "I have already seen the new tactics used by the various legions under your command during the march, and although they are superior to the standard tactics of the Imperial Legions, they lack the basis for large-scale promotion. ”

"From what I've observed, the main reason why your legions are proficient in using new tactics is because they are all equipped with a new type of weaponry, and without this new weaponry, your new tactics may not be as good as the Empire's standard tactics. ”

"Yes, you're very observant. Bai Feng, who heard the deep meaning of Eric's words, deliberately avoided the important and said lightly: "The perfect use of new tactics does require the matching of new weapons and equipment, but this new type of weapons and equipment can be replaced by other equipment. ”

Seeing that Bai Feng was unwilling to answer him directly, Eric simply said straight to the point: "Lord Governor, our three legions are also legions under your command, if you are willing to change the clothes of our soldiers, I believe that the combat effectiveness of our three legions will definitely improve very quickly." ”

As soon as these words came out, not only did Eric look at Bai Feng with expectant eyes, but even Krefel and Barao, who had just expressed their willingness to follow Bai Feng, cast their eager eyes on Bai Feng; as the captain of the legion, nothing was more attractive to them.

Bai Feng, who didn't expect Eric to come to such a move, glanced at Eric in a little surprise, and then retracted his gaze and said, "Before, I promised Prince Pros to provide him with 100,000 sets of new weapons and equipment in the next year. ”

Bai Feng's words alone, Eric's eyes couldn't help but show a look of disappointment, and Krefel and Barao's expressions were even more frustrated;

With the sound of two palms clashing together, the originally closed door of the conference room was pushed open from the outside, and four soldiers wearing different armors walked into the conference room in full armor and stood in front of the huge map in a row.

Facing the puzzled eyes of the generals, Bai Feng explained to them: "The weapons and equipment used by the two soldiers on the left are the new weapons and equipment mentioned by General Eric just now; ”

The so-called distinction between light and heavy equipment in Bai Feng's mouth is the difference between the standard weapons and equipment of the Roman Youth Army and the standard weapons and equipment of the Roman heavy infantry; the two soldiers who appear on the left are wearing the standard weapons and equipment of the Roman Youth Army and the standard weapons and equipment of the Roman heavy infantry.

"The weapons and equipment used by the two soldiers on the right are the standard weapons and equipment provided by the Imperial Military Department to the Royal Legion and the batch of sophisticated weapons and equipment newly purchased by me. ”

The generals in the conference room were all from the junior officers in the army to the position of the corps commander step by step, and they still had a set of quality inspections of weapons and equipment; therefore, as soon as Bai Feng's words came out, they all got up and came to the four soldiers to check.

After walking to the first soldier on the right to inspect for a long time, General Basaromu, the commander of the 74th Army Corps, said with emotion: "The weapons and equipment provided by the Imperial Military Department to the Royal Legion are really much better than the inferior weapons and equipment provided to us!"

Krefel was envious and said: "The general's new weapons and equipment are not much different in quality from those used by the Royal Legion, especially the new weapons and equipment that are reloaded, and the quality is even better than that of the Royal Legion!"

After carefully inspecting the four weapons and equipment one by one, Eric sighed from the bottom of his heart: "Compared with these four weapons and equipment, aside from the coordination factors of operations and tactics, the most sophisticated thing is actually this newly purchased weapons and equipment!"

......

After all the generals with their feelings sat back in their places, Bai Feng went straight to the point and said: "These four weapons and equipment, the first two new weapons and equipment will be given priority to the Prince of GLP, so in the next year, the officers and men of our army will not be able to add new weapons and equipment." ”

"The weapons and equipment supplied to the Royal Legion in the name of the Imperial Military Department are actually forged in the Royal Workshop, and we cannot obtain them in large quantities, and in the end, I have purchased 200,000 sets of the most sophisticated weapons and equipment, which is enough for the whole army to be equipped with sophisticated weapons and equipment. ”

"200,000 sets of weapons and equipment?!" The whole army has changed its outfits, ?!!and all the generals present are shocked, their eyes straighten, and their pupils are suddenly open!

Not caring about the shocked gaffes of the generals, Bai Feng smiled and asked Eric: "General Eric, I will give you 60,000 sets of weapons and equipment for the comprehensive refitting of the three legions under your command;

After hiding all his somewhat chaotic thoughts, Eric, whose expression had regained his composure, solemnly promised: "Lord Governor, as long as 60,000 sets of weapons and equipment are in place, within two years, I will definitely train the elite divisions of the three legions for the empire!"

Lai Xianu, who was not accustomed to Eric's way of talking about the Empire, deliberately sarcastically said: "Eric's Overseer is indeed worthy of being the loyal and brave general of the Empire, but it's a pity that these 60,000 sets of weapons and equipment are not provided by the Empire to you. ”

Accustomed to the cynicism of the generals under Bai Feng's command, Eric just didn't hear Raisnu's sarcasm, and looked at the soldier who was wearing sophisticated weapons and equipment; in his opinion, 60,000 sets of such weapons and equipment was the biggest gain of his trip.
