Chapter 111: Difficulty

Jiangcheng is a municipality directly under the central government of the federal government, although the geographical location belongs to the hinterland of Huaxia District, but does not belong to the jurisdiction of Huaxia District, its jurisdiction is vast, under the jurisdiction of 32 huge county seats, each county population is more than one million, the largest county population of more than 3 million.

Nowadays, the county town was the smallest settlement, and the villages and towns disappeared as early as a thousand years ago, because agriculture was completely mechanized, and the output was even more amazing, and there was no need for people to operate it at all, and the federal government only set aside a few grain producing areas to meet the needs of mankind. In addition, there are many synthetic foods nowadays that are very cheap despite the fact that they don't taste as good as the crops they grow.

As a result, outside the city is all wilderness.

The 32 county towns under the jurisdiction of Jiangcheng plus Jiangcheng itself have a population of more than 60 million, which is basically equivalent to a large province.

However, the status of the Jiangcheng Consulate is only equivalent to an ordinary city, and the Jiangcheng Archon is only a city-level consul.

What's really special about it is that there's another authority here!

It was the famous General's Palace, also known as the Headquarters of the Guards.

This is one of the most representative institutions in Jiangcheng, and its top governor, Admiral Ryukaze, is also a member of the federal government's parliament.

Parliament is the highest decision-making body of the federal government!

At this time, Li Luo was dressed in a major military uniform and strolled into the magnificent building of the Guards Headquarters.

"Please show your ID!" the guards at the gate saluted dignifiedly.

Li Luo handed out the electronic identity card, and after the guard scanned it, he saluted again.

"Major Li Luo, welcome to the headquarters, I wonder what is the matter with you?"

"I want to apply for a job in the Third Legion!" Li Luo said with a smile.

"Then please go to the first unit of the building, you need to go to the entry registration office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, good luck!"

With the guard's words, the spiritual power barrier at the gate slowly separated.

Li Luo smiled and nodded to the guards, and walked in.

The headquarters of the Guards is very large, it is one of the most magnificent and eye-catching buildings in Jiangcheng, the whole building is full of the taste of science and technology inside and outside, metal and alloy are the main theme here, and various automation and information facilities are even more dazzling.

In the years when Hongchen practiced his heart, Li Luo and Feng Yaling would look at it from afar every time they passed by, and they were full of curiosity and awe about this place at that time!

Feng Yaling always smiled and said to him, how good it would be if we could serve here!

That kind of longing, even now, Li Luo still remembers it vividly.

Now, he walked in here, remembering the old days, as if unreal as a dream, and that gentle girl was no longer around!

With a touch of sentimentality, Li Luo strolled through the building, looking at the busy officers coming and going, and couldn't tell what it was like.

After a long time, he gathered his emotions and slowly arrived at the registration office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs according to the instructions of the building's distribution map.

The area around the registration desk is a little deserted, and compared to the bustle of other departments, there are hardly any people in the aisles here.

Li Luo slightly straightened his military uniform, took a deep breath, walked through the heavy fully automatic metal door, and walked into the office with a steady pace.

There was only a middle-aged man with black hair in the office, wearing a brigadier uniform, sitting behind a desk, looking up something on a blue computer projection,

Li Luo stepped forward, put his legs together, and saluted: "Report to the chief, Major Li Luo reports!"

The loud voice made the brigadier general's gaze take his eyes off the projection, looked at it slightly, and asked expressionlessly, "Your name is Li Luo?"

"Yes, sir!" Li Luo stood straight, his military posture very standard.

"But that Li Luo that Admiral Liufeng personally recruited?" the brigadier general asked again with squinted eyes.

"Yes, sir!"

After receiving the answer, the brigadier general looked at Li Luo carefully from beginning to end again, but after a while, he turned his attention back to the projection and said coldly: "Major, I must regret to tell you that there are no vacancies in the Third Army Corps at present, and you can only exist as a reserve officer, go home first and wait for news!"

Li Luo frowned, but didn't say anything, gave a military salute, turned around and left.

Coming to the hallway, he slowed down, feeling a little strange in his heart.

What's going on? There are never enough fighters on the other side of Purgatory, I haven't heard of this situation where there are no vacancies, why is there so many talents in the Guards Legion?

Marshal Zhao also said that there are also several dangerous secret realms here in Jiangcheng, which are also connected to the border areas, and the loss of the Guards Legion should also be very large!

Could it be because the Third Army Corps is an army stationed in the Jiangcheng area and has no losses? But does the Guards Corps never change its defense? The Third Army Corps will always be stationed in Jiangcheng, and the First and Second Army Corps will be on the frontier for a long time? How can there be such an unfair arrangement in the same corps system?

In any case, there is no vacancy in the Third Legion now, and the plan to use the Guards Legion to exterminate the Jiangcheng Blood Clan will not work, and it seems that another way will have to be found!

Thinking along the way, Li Luo's brows became tighter and tighter.

Judging from the current situation, it is the best choice to use the Guards Legion to exterminate the Jiangcheng Blood Clan, but there is no vacancy in the Third Legion, and he has no choice but to go home for the time being.

Walking around the corner of the corridor, Li Luo came to the elevator entrance, but he didn't expect to meet two captains and officers coming to this floor.

They faced each other in front of the elevator door, and the two captains greeted each other with a smile.

"Hello, sir!"

"Hello!" Li Luo replied casually, not intending to talk deeply, and when they got out of the elevator, he walked in.

The elevator doors slowly closed, and the two captains and officers talked to each other as they walked farther and farther away.

"Ronnie, with so many people transferred from the three legions this time, our two brothers can finally be promoted to major!"

"Yes, that major's uniform just now is so beautiful, I'm glad I'm about to put it on too!"

When these words came into his ears, Li Luo immediately pressed the elevator, and the elevator door that was about to close slowly opened, and his face sank.

At this time, the two captains were still talking.

"Carlos, don't be too happy, there have been many skirmishes on the frontier recently, and the commanders are saying that something big is going to happen!"

"Yes, I've heard about it too! If a full-scale war breaks out like it did more than ten years ago, I don't know if we will survive again!"

Hearing this, Li Luo finally couldn't hold back any longer, suddenly jumped out of the elevator, and shouted: "Ronnie, Carlos!"

The two captains in front of them instantly turned their heads, slightly stunned.

"Major, what's wrong with you?"

"I'm sorry, I accidentally overheard your conversation just now, and there was another change in the frontier?" asked Li Luo quietly.

The captain named Ronnie was surprised: "Sir, you don't know yet?"

Li Luo smiled casually: "I have some special tasks in recent years, and I am not in Jiangcheng, so I don't know much about the situation!"

"Oh! I see!" Ronnie was relieved and said with a smile: "That commander is really not the right time to come back, the border has changed recently, and the situation is not very good! Our Third Army was supposed to be stationed in Jiangcheng for two years before changing guards, but now it has also been evacuated by nearly 10,000 people, and the commanders all say that I am afraid that it will not be long before a big war breaks out on the border again!"

"That's really bad, it seems that you are right, I should be back two years later!" Li Luo shrugged his shoulders helplessly and made a small joke with the two.

Ronnie and Carlos laughed and waved in unison, "Good luck then!"

"Thank you!" Li Luo smiled and nodded.

Seeing Ronnie and Carlos walking towards the registry office again, Li Luo's face turned dark, and he cursed in his heart: That damn brigadier general actually sinistered me.

After thinking for a moment, he didn't leave, decided to find out what was going on, and quietly hid around the corner of the hallway.

After about half an hour, Ronnie and Carlos walked out of the registration office, and the two talked and laughed, and quickly took the elevator to leave.

It was only from their conversation that Li Luo learned that their promotion was very smooth.

This made him instantly angry.

Obviously, the brigadier general was deliberately making things difficult just now, and the Third Army was obviously short of a large number of people, so he was the only one who refused to join the army.

Thinking of this, he didn't say a word and walked into the registration office again.

"Sir!"

Hearing this, the brigadier turned his head and saw Li Luo going and returning, with displeasure on his face.

"What are you doing again?

Li Luo swallowed that breath into his stomach, took a deep breath, and calmly replied: "Sir, since the available position of the rank of major has been filled, I can demote myself to the position of captain!"

The brigadier general barely hesitated, waved his hand impatiently and said: "The position of captain is also full!"

"That lieutenant rank!" Li Luo was more energetic.

"It's full, too!"

"Second lieutenant rank!"

"It's full!" the brigadier general's voice grew colder and colder.

Li Luo's face was very ugly, he took a deep breath and asked, "Sir, what do you mean by this?"

"Major, be careful with your words, you're questioning the sir?"

"Don't dare!" Li Luo gritted his teeth and looked directly at the brigadier general. "But I heard that there is a change in the frontier, and the Guards Regiment is the time to use people, and I have the right to complain to the General Staff!"

A cold glint flashed in the brigadier general's eyes.

"Young Major, you know a lot, but do you think it would be useful to complain to the General Staff? I will give you a final piece of advice, you are not suitable for the Guards Regiment, it is better to leave the army as soon as possible, and if you submit an application for discharge to me now, I will approve it immediately! If you really want to join the army, you can go to another regiment!"

"Sir, I don't think you have the right to force soldiers to retire!" Li Luo replied coldly, turned around and left.

The brigadier general didn't stop him, snorted coldly, and ignored it again.

Leaving the registration office, Li Luo was really angry, he asked himself if he didn't offend anyone in the Guards Legion, and no one could stand being treated like this for no reason.

Without stopping for a moment, he immediately rushed to the staff headquarters of the Third Army Corps and went directly to the Supervision Office.

What is surprising is that the other side originally attached great importance to it, but when he heard Li Luo report his name, his attitude became cold again, and he was obviously perfunctory.

This made Li Luo's lungs explode, and he left the Guards Headquarters angrily, and did not gradually calm down until he returned to Hushan Villa, thinking about today's events, he always felt a little weird.

"I didn't provoke the people of the Guards Legion, so as not to offend so many people at the same time to fight against me, why did they immediately reject me when they heard my name?"

The more he thought about it, the more Li Luo felt that something was wrong, and he felt that there was something wrong here.

But now he didn't have a clue, thinking about it, thinking that joining the Guards Legion was secretly promoted by Lieutenant General Binghe after all, and there must be Marshal Zhao's meaning behind it, so he immediately returned to the bedroom and reported what happened today.

Half an hour later, Marshal Zhao sent a reply.

Li Luo opened it and looked at it, and was instantly stunned.

There is only one sentence on it.

"Huaxia District time, at seven o'clock in the evening on the thirteenth of this month, put on the uniform of the major of the Guards Regiment, attract the crowd to watch, and then forcibly break into the Liufeng residence!"
