Chapter 158: Recommended Places

Wake up and the war is over.

Vega walked out of the room, the underground bomb shelter was no longer as deserted as before, and the large army that had participated in the battle had returned to the underground bomb shelter, but there were wails, cries, and angry curses...... And so on.

Although the empire won this battle, it was only a miserable victory.

Because the enemy is the backbone of the army after all, and the own side is the cannon fodder force, this fight will naturally make a judgment.

The magical support of the Imperial Army is obviously superior, so relying on the strong magical support, Shengsheng has turned the disadvantage into an advantage, and less than 3,500 of the 10,000 people of the Royal Army have successfully retreated.

Of course, the Imperial Army is also half-hearted.

Because it was originally a cannon fodder unit, the combat experience has always been insufficient, so the number of people in this battle has probably dropped sharply to 3,000 people.

On top of that, the mage troops and the professional troops suffered heavy losses.

The Shadow Mage Squadron lost 90 percent of its numbers, and the other squads also lost 70 percent of their numbers, so only the elite mage escort team truly achieved zero casualties.

Therefore.

Kareni's Third Army still had only 3,000 ordinary troops, about 40 magicians, and about 150 professionals, which was roughly the size of two standard regiments.

But the Kingdom Army is different.

The most killed in this battle was only the law enforcement team of the Bruno Law Enforcement Directorate, and the Kingdom's Airborne Division had almost no casualties in addition to the heavy losses of the magician troops, and even in addition to the Royal Army troops guarding the defense line in key locations, they could still draw more than 10,000 troops to attack the Imperial Army.

The overall situation remains unabated.

Next, it will be up to Foster to take advantage of the geographical advantage to deal with the second attack of the Kingdom Army, and even launch a counteroffensive.

With that in mind, Vega walked in the direction of the cafeteria.

Laboriously standing on tiptoe, Vega took the dinner plate and walked towards the corner seat, the living reserve of this underground air-raid shelter is still quite sufficient, probably enough for a division to hold out for a month and a half.

"Vega, second lieutenant?"

An abrupt voice rang out, and it was an old acquaintance of Vega, Ganser Burton.

He had a plaster cast on his left hand, a bandage on his head, and a plate in his right hand and sat opposite Vega: "I've heard that you've come back a long time ago, and it's a pity that I haven't had the chance to meet you, no matter what, nominally you are still my subordinate." ”

"The situation is urgent, and I ask for your understanding. ”

Vega put down his knife and fork: "It's Lord Ganse, how are you dressed like this?"

"Alas. ”

sighed deeply: "I was not injured under the bombardment of the magic airship, and I was not injured when I broke through the central area, but I didn't expect to be swept out by the aftermath of the flameburst in this battle, and I almost whined." ”

"The brigade commander is a pioneer and deserves respect. Vega smiled and complimented.

Ganse lit a cigarette irritably: "The military order cannot be violated, don't look at the title of brigade commander now, in fact, my troops have all been exhausted, whether it is the professional brigade, the mage team, even the ordinary troops are ......"

"Could it be that our brigade is in this battle?"

Ganse's face twitched, and then replied: "That's right, the A91 Brigade is the vanguard in this battle, and it is the vanguard to say that it sounds good, and it is not cannon fodder to absorb the enemy's magic output if it is ugly, but the commander-in-chief ordered us to do this, how can I, the little brigade commander, resist." It's okay this way, and you don't have to worry about it when the troops are gone...... Ahem!"

Instead of complaining, Ganser coughed twice as he sensed that a man had come not far behind him.

The officer, dressed in military uniform and with the rank of major, said in a dry voice: "Brigadier Ganser, all this is for the victory of the Empire, and you should take a long-term view, instead of always thinking about personal gains and losses like a small nobleman." ”

"What Major Harman said was very true. ”

Ganser snorted and said, "As the adjutant of His Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, how can I have time to talk to me, a general without soldiers, in my busy schedule? Or does it mean that Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief has a new order, and although my troops have been exhausted, if the empire needs my life, I can still contribute at any time." ”

"Hmph, Brigadier Gancer, don't get me wrong, I'm not looking for you on this trip. ”

Adjutant Harman turned to Vega and said, "Second Lieutenant Vega, Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief is please. ”

Vega put down his knife and fork, said sorry to Ganser, and followed the adjutant to the commander-in-chief's office.

Squeak –

The door opened, and Vega entered it alone.

Looking at Foster, who was leaning back on his seat alone and closing his eyes, Vega whispered, "Lord Commander-in-Chief, are you looking for me?"

Hearing Vega's voice, Foster opened his eyes slightly because of this: "It's just some trivial things, it's about your military merit reward this time." ”

"The lower officials don't dare to take credit, it's just my business. Vega said modestly.

Foster waved his hand: "If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you have faults, you will be punished." With the military merits you have accumulated so far, it is no longer a big problem to be promoted to the regimental level, but you also know that if you want to serve as a middle-level officer in the army, you need to go to a military academy for 1-3 years of further study, and in the current situation, I am afraid it will be difficult to achieve it for a while. ”

Vega didn't speak, just waited quietly for Foster's next words.

Foster frowned slightly: "I think it's better to do this, first raise your rank to captain, and serve as the battalion commander of the reorganized 5th Battalion, and then send you to the Great Northwest Army after this war is over...... I will personally recommend you to the Central Military Academy. ”

"Thank you, Commander. ”

Vega is naturally not dissatisfied with this reply, in this case, being able to serve as a powerful officer is already very face-saving for Vega, not to mention the recommended quota of the Central Military Academy.

The Central Military Academy is known as the cradle of imperial generals.

As long as he achieves excellent grades in the military academy, then he can enter the field of vision of the Imperial Military Department, plus his Imperial Wings honor and the surname Kareni, which is almost equivalent to escorting the general.

Even after graduating from the Central Military Academy, those with the best grades started as deputy brigade officers.

Vega was not dissatisfied with this outcome.

But in the final analysis, these are just empty checks, because whether this war can be won or not is still two words, if Foster dies in this war, then he doesn't know who he should go to to cash in at that time, after all, once a son of heaven and a courtier.

Since it was both glory and loss, Vega looked at Foster with uncertain eyes.

He gritted his teeth and paused for a few seconds before finally speaking: "Your Excellency, commander-in-chief, do you have a plan to recover Kareni?" ”
