Chapter 256: Sons of the Aristocrats
Mona Star in the Nar Star Field.
As the capital of the Annan Federation, the only third-level civilization in the Nar Star Domain, Mona Star is the political, economic and cultural center of the entire Nar Star Domain. This was true 8,000 years ago when the Confederation of Annam was sitting on the well, it was also the case when it was invaded by the Republic of Dotkara, and now it is even more so when it is the turn of the Zerg to rule here.
Geographically speaking, Mona is basically in the center of the entire Nar Domain, which is extremely important to the Zerg, because if this is the capital of the Nar War Zone, then no matter what problems arise on that side, they can be dealt with in time.
More than half a month has passed since the Battle of the Serenka Fortress, and the news of the defeat of the Dark Council has now spread throughout the Nar Star Domain. The changes that have taken place as a result of this news may not have been obvious in the outlying areas, but they are already being felt in Mona.
Now the residents of Mona Star have become accustomed to the ugly-looking jumping insects patrolling the streets with their crimson eyes, and although they are not completely afraid of the monsters in their eyes, they have lost their initial fear. At least the Raqqas wouldn't scream and run away when they appeared, and now even if they did, they would just walk around and hide a little farther away.
It is also strange to say that since the Great Chu Empire took over the defense of Mona Star, except for the first three days of the Great Riot, the security of the entire Mona Star has suddenly become exceptionally good, and the jumping insects that can be seen everywhere have almost made robbery and riots extinct. Even the thieves, who are usually ubiquitous, have washed their hands with trepidation, because they will never forget the thugs who were torn to pieces and devoured by jumping worms in the riots more than a month ago.
"These Raqqa people are really ugly. It's the same, and even if you can be a nobleman, it's probably not much fun here. "Walking in the most prosperous shopping plaza of Mona Star, two humans in dark red military uniforms are wandering around with interest on their faces.
The dark red uniforms are the officer uniforms of the Imperial Garrison. Three months ago, in order to quell the riots in the Luoyun Star Domain, Kai Ruigan deliberately expanded the number of garrison troops, and allowed some noble officers to mobilize the Zerg army to a limited extent.
After all, compared to the rigid low-level Zerg commanders, it is more effective to let these humans who are also good at intrigue and trickery deal with the hidden rebels, and this is exactly the case, because a large number of aristocratic school graduates joined the army and began to participate in the suppression of the rebellion, and now that the rebels in the Luoyun Star Domain have been completely suppressed, these nobles who do everything to deal with the rebels in order to be promoted are simply amazingly fast in dealing with the rebels.
It is also the result of the efforts of the newly graduated nobles of these aristocratic schools. Now the status of the garrison in the empire has been greatly improved, although it is not on a par with the Zerg of the Chosen People, but it is not always Chu Heng who ignores their combat effectiveness. In recognition of the merits of the garrison. Chu Heng personally designed this dark red officer uniform, and the only people who were qualified to wear this military uniform were the students of the aristocratic school and the nobles who joined the army after graduation.
Originally, the imperial system was divided into regular armies and garrisons, and the regular army referred to the swarm and was responsible for frontal combat against the outside world. The garrison, on the other hand, refers to a suppression force composed of human surrender troops. Among them, the officer can command a small number of swarms. Responsible for the suppression of rebellions.
Because of the good performance of the graduates of the aristocratic school, Chu Heng finally began to pay attention to the garrison, so he specially stipulated two ways to graduate from the aristocratic school now. One is the political line, as before, the best can be the consul of a planet, or even the consul of a star system, and the least can be the consul of a city.
The other is the way to join the army, starting from the most basic officers, once there are military merits, they are promoted faster than those civilian officers, after all, nobles are privileged. In fact, the reason why Chu Heng gave them so many privileges was mainly because most of these nobles were Zerg bodies or followers of the Kosmos God Sect. Naturally, they are more trusted than civilian officers.
And the ultimate goal of these nobles in the army is to join the regular army and become beings like Youshne and Blanche. Because they're actually all very clear. Compared to the garrison, the regular army is the real power, although there are some nobles with higher titles than Blanche, but when they really face Blanche, who can control tens of millions of swarms, they find that they can't be tough no matter what, this is the gap.
Of course, Chu Heng also hoped to find a second Blanche among them, so although the review given to the general of the garrison to become a general of the regular army was very strict, there was still a glimmer of hope.
Now walking in the Mona Star shopping plaza two wearing dark red military uniforms are the Mona Star Noble School students, a month ago these noble children from the family got the place of the noble school and came here full of hope, and after they found out the ugly appearance of the Raqqa people, half of the passion was immediately extinguished, if they are allowed to be with these people in the future, then what is the point of their lives?
"It is a great merit to guide the lost lamb, Meghantra." The other man was very open-minded and did not take his companion's complaints to heart.
"Guide the lost Lamb? That's the merit of the Whitelords, not mine, McGonagall, are your brains broken? The human known as Megantra pursed his lips, and he looked at these rakqa people with tentacles all over their heads, and he was sick to his stomach, how could he lead them to join the Cult of Kosmos like the white cardinal?
"You are really hopeless and hopeless, by the way, it is said that it only takes one year for our class to graduate and serve the empire, and in the future, we only need to find time to come to the noble school to make up for the other two years of courses, have you figured out what you want to do after graduation?" McGonagall asked, pausing in her tracks.
"Of course, it's to join the garrison, I heard that that kid from the William family has only been in the garrison of the Luoyun Star Domain for three months and has been promoted from lieutenant to lieutenant colonel, and the promotion is as fast as riding a rocket." Meghantra was excited when it came to her career after graduation.
"Of course, it would be nice if my defense zone was in the Luoyun Star Domain." Then, when he thought that after graduation, even if he joined the garrison, he would still be in the Nar Star Domain, and he lost interest.
Of course, McGonagall knew why he said this, Megantra was a famous playboy when she was in Isstar, and even caused a lot of trouble, if it weren't for his third-level believers and being a child of the Rovin family, she would have been taken away by the people of the religious institute long ago. Now that he has come to this almost "demon dance" Nar Star Domain, of course his mood is not good.
"For the sake of His Majesty's plan, you dare to pick and choose?" McGonagall had the intention of correcting his mentality, so she directly mentioned Chu Heng's name. Whether it is him, Megantra or other aristocratic school students, they are extremely loyal to the emperor, because they are all loyal believers in the cult of Kosmos, and naturally they dare not blaspheme the divine master of order.
"I'm willing to die for Your Majesty, isn't it just to garrison the Nar Star Domain? What's the big deal? Megantra's eyes became feverish when she heard Her Majesty's name, but then he said something that almost choked McGonagall to death. Of course, it would be nice to have a pure Ethel beauty lieutenant with you. ”
"It's not enough for you to scourge you, and you even caught the attention of the beauty of Ethel? Why don't you want a blue-blooded beauty? McGonagall rolled her eyes, but fortunately, although Megantra sometimes had sperm worms, it was much better than the direct children of the family who were waiting to die, otherwise the Rovin family would not have given him such an important place.
Now is the era of great changes in the empire, the nobles of the empire are scarce, and every nobleman who wants to expand his family's influence will not let such an opportunity be wasted.
Therefore, the places in the aristocratic schools obtained several times in the family were given to those capable children in the family instead of the direct children. After all, the nobility of the empire is not hereditary, once their parents die, the halo that shrouds their heads will disappear, and if they don't erect a few pillars while their family still has prestige, then their family will decline with time.
Once those side children have achievements, they will not forget the shoes of their direct family, and their direct children will still have the opportunity to continue to become nobles by virtue of the advantage of the aristocracy having a place in a noble school. But if they suppress the capable children of the side line only in order to make the direct descendants become nobles, then their family will inevitably not last long.
"What about you, McGonagall, which path are you going to take?"
"I'm going to go into politics, and there is a serious shortage of consuls in the Nar Star Domain, so if I choose to enter politics, I will at least start as a consul on the planet, and it is not impossible for me to become a consul of the star system directly if I can be among the best when I graduate."
"Are you crazy? Everyone now knows that joining the military is the fastest way to get promoted. ”
"I'm not crazy, what the empire needs most now is energy, which can be seen from the fact that the empire only collects Thai ore and does not pay attention to other aspects. The Tai Ore is the cornerstone of the Empire's strength, and in my opinion, if the Archon's ability is strong enough, it is not impossible to double the production of Tai Ore in the Nar Star Domain. These are too far away, but if I do it, I am afraid that the credit will not be much lower than that of you to exterminate a few little stupid thieves, and it is not certain who will be promoted faster at that time. ”
Megantra was still a little unconvinced after hearing this, and when she saw this, McGonagall said: "If you choose to join the army, then the rank is lieutenant, at most captain, that is, the brigade level." And the lowest I choose to work in politics is also the Planet Archon, which is a legion-level, and it is clear at a glance which is strong and which is weak. (To be continued......)
