Chapter 18: Abilities
A military office of the Eastern Shenwu Empire.
"Knock knock!" came a knock at the door.
"Please come in. ”
An officer walked into Resquel's office with a stack of papers: "Report to the sir, the third prince has sent two officers to serve as members of the civil guard team during this princess trial. I have just received a notice from the palace that we have cancelled the task of selecting two officers to be the protectors of the princess's trial. ”
The reason why it is called a civil guard group is that there are naturally non-civil guard groups, that is, members of the royal family, and the civil guard groups protect the trial objects on the surface, while the non-civilian guard groups in charge of the royal family are waiting for opportunities in the dark.
Resgail did not express his displeasure at the intervention of the third prince. I saw that he took the top two folders indifferently, opened them, and a familiar face appeared in front of him along with an obscene face. He frowned, first, the file marked that these two officers were both from the 17th Division, and they were both subordinates of Zheng Kai, the third prince's sworn friend; second, one of the people on the file had just become a second lieutenant; and the third reason was that what really made him frown, among the two members of the civilian security group, one of them was actually his younger brother who had run away from home and had not been heard from for many years.
"XCMG!"
Ran away from home and disappeared for many years, and his father, Lord Renault, launched various forces, either light or covert, but he couldn't find this runaway brother, and he couldn't see anyone alive or dead. Unexpectedly, he actually joined the army and joined Zheng Kai's 17th Division.
Lacey's index finger tapped lightly on the table, and the clerk knew that this was a unique action for the division commander when he was thinking.
"Is there a problem with their identity and background?" asked Reis, who did not reveal his brother's identity, and seemed to be very casual.
"Report to the division commander, I have read all their identity information, and because it was our mission at the beginning, I also sent someone to investigate. One of the officers named Xu Gong, with an innocent background, was born in a small rich family, joined the army 3 years ago, was assigned to the 17th Division with excellent results in the assessment, has experienced many battles, recently participated in the sniper battle against the logistics forces of the Western Holy Empire, has been promoted to colonel, proficient in mecha combat, and currently holds a B-level pilot license. There is no lack of appreciation and praise in the officer's narrative, you must know that he is only 21 years old, without any aristocratic background, and he can become a colonel after passing the test of countless bloody battles in three years step by step, although it is not common in the Eastern Empire, which is generally young in the army, and he was a B-level pilot before joining the army.
The clerk paused, as if he had organized a sentence, as if he had just said the words of an angel wrapped in a cloud of glorious light, and then he was talking about a demon with black fleshy wings on his back and a long arrow-shaped tail.
"The other one might be a bit of a problem. Li Dong, an orphan in the capital area called Gangster Street, had no proper occupation before joining the army, belonged to the marginal group of hooligans and gangsters there, and did not participate in underworld groups. Eight months ago, there was a case in the capital area where the leader of the escort squad was killed, and the place of the crime was in the hooligan street of Li Dong. Although there is no evidence to prove that the case is related to him, there are folk rumors that Li Dong killed the squad leader because of a personal vendetta. Seven months ago, Li Dong took the army's civilian personnel examination, and as the first-to-last finalist, he entered the 17th Division as a clerk with the rank of sergeant. Later, he was allegedly violated military discipline and was arrested by Zheng Kai, the commander of the 17th Division, and was sent to the front line as a scout. After 6 months of military merit, he has been promoted to sergeant. Recently, he also participated in the 17th Division's sniper campaign against the logistics units of the Western Empire, and it is reported that he destroyed hundreds of enemy mechas, and what is even more surprising is that half of the Royal Mecha units of the Western Empire were destroyed in his hands, and it was he who personally killed the squad leader of this unit. Only then was he promoted directly from a sergeant in the reconnaissance group to an officer and second lieutenant. ”
Lacey originally secretly hated in his heart that Zheng Kai must have secretly done something to secretly change his younger brother's file and conceal his identity, so that he and his father worked hard to find it all these years, and when he heard Li Dong's detailed report, he suddenly became interested: "Oh, the 17th Division actually has such a talented pilot besides Zheng Kai, and he is actually young and can kill the captain of the Royal Mecha Unit of the Western Empire! What is the level of his pilot's license, A-level, or super A?" A pilot is a profession that requires talent and hard work, and a high-level pilot is indispensable in both aspects, so even in the young Eastern Empire army, high-level pilots, that is, those with B-level or higher licenses, are between 30 and 40 years old, experienced, and full of physical strength. Like Li Dong, who is around 20 years old, this kind of one-person battle destroys hundreds of mecha on the other side and kills elite pilots with at least B-level or above licenses, and has not been seen on the battlefield for many years. Therefore, Reis judged that Li Dong's mecha level had even reached the super A level, of course, he was born in a noble family and received an orthodox chivalry education, and he did not consider the improper means of non-frontal mecha duels, and far overestimated Li Dong's machine combat ability.
The clerk checked the information in his hand again, swallowed his saliva, and replied in a hesitant tone: "Division commander, this sergeant doesn't even have a C-level license, the information shows that when the civilian personnel were recruited, the mecha tested, and the mecha he drove didn't take a few steps, and it exploded directly after a fall." And it is rumored that in the recent sniper battle, the absence of a pre-war munitions hole in an arsenal of the 17th Division and the unknown explosion during the battle also had something to do with him. ”
"Oh!" Lacey frowned, then regained his blank expression, nodded, and motioned for the clerk to go out.
The door closed, and he tapped lightly on the table, unable to help but think. During the assessment, the plane exploded directly, indicating that this person had never been in contact with a mecha before; and then transferred to the front line as the most dangerous scout, he could survive for more than half a year, just relying on the terrible radar early warning system of the 17th Division is far from enough, this person must be outstanding in early warning and escape; and the most terrifying thing is that in the last sniper battle, it is enough to destroy hundreds of ordinary mecha of the Western Empire, but there are still royal mecha units of the Western Empire, this person is definitely not an ordinary person! However, such a figure is usually also the one around him who is in danger.
A genius from the rogue district, coupled with his ignorant and naïve little brother, two ticking time bombs are about to be sent to the princess.
Milley, Arizo, what are you up to?
"Cut, what is the Royal Mecha Force, give me a dozen sub-level planetary missiles, I can defeat them by a division!" Li Dong was in the bar of the ship, drinking a little wine, and the cowhide blew loudly. Generally, logistics troops and ships transporting the disabled to the rear will have such a small bar for soldiers to drink a few glasses, relieve the tense nerves on the battlefield, and reduce the pain of disability.
"Die!" Xu Gong slapped the cocky guy on the back of the head. How can you be so shameless, why don't you have any honor as a pilot, how can you ...... The space journey was boring, and after the two of them competed in Mengtian after the mecha battle, they also entered some semi-military games on the Internet, competing in air combat, amphibious tanks, small space ship battles, and so on. At the beginning, Abi could see that Li Dong had never manipulated or commanded these mechanical units and troops, and was naturally defeated by him, and then defeated and kowtowed, but as long as he went through one or two rounds as an adaptation period, Li Dong could quickly adapt to the operations and consciousness that others needed several months of formal training to master, and what was even more unacceptable was that when he got used to it, he immediately moved out of the fighting method of the hooligan street, and all kinds of stuffy sticks and black fists followed, which made people overwhelmed, but he couldn't catch his tail and face him head-on, to compete in operation and technology。
"Cut, what is the honor of a pilot, the spirit of a knight. I only know that on that street in the capital area, only those who can win the battle will go home alive for dinner!" Every time Abi denounced Li Dong's hooligan tactics, Li Dong was not ashamed, but proud, and always said proudly.
Once received an aristocratic education since childhood, Abi, who had never even heard of swear words, could no longer find the words to condemn Li Dong, and couldn't help but give him a punch, and his mood was extremely comfortable, and Li Dong still smiled and did not fight back, and finally deeply understood that what was in front of him was not a formally cultivated imperial soldier, but the product of a rogue street in the capital area. All the elements of a good street gangster, such as sleek and black-bellied, are placed on the street of hooligans in the capital area, and he is definitely not a general, he is - a big hooligan!
Li Dong raised his head and drank the wine in the toast, shouted another glass loudly, and at the same time deliberately sighed with satisfaction: "Oh, drinking wine invited by others, the taste is different, it is really unusually sweet and refreshing!"
Abi smiled bitterly and shook his head, this was the 23rd time he had invited Li Dong to drink on the ship, and it was also the 23rd time he had lost to Li Dong in the competition.
