Happiness itself is neither moral nor immoral. It is only when the desire for pleasure triumphs over the desire for one's own worth that happiness degrades.

– Otto Weininger (Austrian philosopher)

Montgomery, who had all his attention attracted by this special competitive training proposed by Bai Feng, suddenly realized after thinking about it carefully: "General, you want to stimulate the soldiers' sense of honor through this kind of competitive training, so that they can train their own!"

Montgomery was indeed one of the best generals in the Imperial Army, and in just a few minutes, he understood the true meaning of competitive training and directly pointed out its core; such a general, which is rare in the entire Empire, but unfortunately it is Prince William's man.

"Not bad. Bai Feng, who has always had confidence in subduing Montgomery, said very frankly: "Instead of letting the veterans urge the recruits to train unwillingly, it is better to stimulate their enthusiasm for training and let them take the initiative to train diligently." ”

"Not only that, but this way of mixing and matching recruits with veterans is also conducive to the integration between new and veterans. The more he thought about it, the more excited Montgomery became, and said: "The common sense of honor and shame can promote the new and old soldiers to have a real collective consciousness!"

Seeing that Montgomery had fully understood his good intentions, Bai Feng showed a satisfied look on his face, and joked with a smile: "General Montgomery, do you still think that the combat effectiveness of the Wind Legion cannot be doubled in three months?"

"General, I have always been pretentious, thinking that the training method I have summed up is a good job, but I didn't expect that your competitive training is a good way to really quickly improve the combat effectiveness of the army;

When Montgomery said the first half of the sentence with a look of shame on his face, Bai Feng's heart was still quite happy, because if you want to subdue a proud person, you must defeat him in the most proud aspect, which is the eternal truth of subduing excellent talents.

It's just that Bai Feng didn't expect that Montgomery would reveal the idea of resigning as the leader of the Wind Legion as he spoke, if it was just for a Wind Legion, why did Bai Feng bother so much, compared to the Wind Legion, he valued Montgomery more as a person.

It is easy to get a general in a thousand armies, although this sentence has its exaggerated troops, but it is enough to show the importance of excellent generals, especially Montgomery, who is excellent in all aspects, that is a general that Bai Feng is determined to win, and he is reluctant to give up this general.

"General Montgomery, do you think that I recommended you to be the commander of the Tempest Legion because I cared about the old headquarters of the five thousand Tempest Thieves under your command? No, I value your ability and want you to use the Tempest Legion as a stage to display your ambitions and talents!"

"General......

Montgomery, who was shocked, was just about to speak, but was interrupted by Bai Feng: "You can go to the Feather Forest Legion to have a look, go to my personal guards to see, do you think I lack your five thousand so-called elites?

"If just one blow to the training battle makes you lose the confidence and courage to struggle, then you Montgomery are not worthy of my such attention!" Bai Feng, who deliberately pretended to hate iron but not steel, wanted to capture the old man and said: "Whether to go or stay, you choose!"

Montgomery, who was embarrassed by Bai Feng's words, secretly clenched his fists, and the next moment, Montgomery, who had regained his fighting spirit, raised his head and held his head high, and said: "General, in three months, the last general will definitely let you see the brand-new Wind Legion!"

"Okay, I'm looking forward to the brand-new Tempest Legion appearing in front of me, and even more so looking forward to the new you appearing in front of me!"

Montgomery naturally could not have heard the profound meaning implied in Bai Feng's words; in this regard, Montgomery, who had previously chosen to categorically refuse, did not give a positive reply this time, but left in a hurry on the grounds that he should hurry back to the barracks to reorganize the corps.

Bai Feng, who had not done his best, knew that Montgomery, who had been loyal to Prince William and Duke Cullen in the past, was no longer as loyal as before, and the loyalty with a trace of cracks would sooner or later fall apart into a pile of worthless pieces under the action of various pulling forces!

Of course, the reason why Bai Feng taught Montgomery Competitive Training was not only to help the Wind Legion improve its combat effectiveness, nor was it simply to pave the way for the subjugation of Montgomery;

Competitive training is certainly a good way to rapidly improve the combat effectiveness of the Swift Legion, but the premise of its implementation is the reorganization of the Swift Legion; with eight recruits and two veterans, who dares to guarantee whether the veterans will assimilate the new recruits or the recruits will dilute the veterans?

The relationship between the eight recruits and the two veterans who are organized in a squad will inevitably become more harmonious as the competitive training unfolds, while the relationship between the veterans who belong to different squads, squadrons, brigades, and wings will gradually become indifferent.

Especially after the original ordinary number sorting involves the actual interests of everyone, will the veterans who were once close friends continue to maintain friendship with their 'competitors', or work hard for gold rewards with their new robes?

When the golden coins are placed in front of everyone, coupled with the fact that it is not really a life-and-death battle, the friendship of the veterans will be consumed little by little in the fierce competition.

Whether Montgomery saw his deepest intentions or not, in fact, Bai Feng didn't know, but even if Montgomery saw it, what could he do? Could it be that he could still refuse this kind of training method that would definitely improve the combat effectiveness of the Wind Legion?

Unlike the conspiracy of seeing the light and death, this kind of conspiracy on the surface is the most lethal of the schemes, and Montgomery could not have rejected the training method of increasing the combat effectiveness of the Tempest Legion, and the price of implementing this method was that his old troops would be completely dispersed.

From Montgomery's personal point of view, this exchange was undoubtedly not worth it, as the end result of the competitive training was Montgomery's growing prestige with the Bandion, but from the point of view of the Legion's combat effectiveness, the exchange was well worth it.

By sacrificing the stealth group of 5,000 veterans, the combat effectiveness of the entire legion has been unprecedentedly improved, and in this way, the Hurricane Legion, which is not even as good as the standing legion of the military headquarters, will quickly have a combat effectiveness comparable to that of the standing legion under Bai Feng's command.

Between gains and losses, Montgomery chose to strive for the Tempest Legion to gain greater combat effectiveness, and in this regard, Montgomery deserves to be one of the best officers in the former empire, and he embodies the principle of a qualified general everywhere with his actions.

On the one hand, White Peak needs Adrien to pay close attention to the reorganization of the Wind Legion, and on the other hand, the focus of the net's surveillance will be replaced by Mountbatten.

Carswall was Montgomery's most hardcore confidant, and whether Montgomery chose to remain loyal to Prince William or choose to turn his allegiance to himself, Bai Feng knew that the loyal Carswall would always follow Montgomery's side, there was no doubt about it.
