Imperial Capital Trantiis (restaurant specializing in aristocratic food)

At the invitation of Brigadier General Jettua, Anna came to this relatively luxurious place on request.

"Don't you eat more? You're still developing, and if you eat too little, it will cause yin and yang to be bad. ”

To my surprise, I was able to eat pine bread and fairy nectar spring (flower arrangement: just imagine Nongfu Spring. ）。 Due to wartime regulations (1), some special foods are forbidden to be sold privately, and the purchase is restricted. Especially for meat and special offerings, I was really surprised that something like Manna Spring could appear in my field of vision.

"Yes! Xiaguan's appetite is not very large. I've tried hard to get myself to eat more, after all, these foods are rare on the market. ”

Based on some kind of agreement between the military and the aristocracy, Jetuah had the opportunity to have a luxury. Although the nobles who slammed the door did not take out the real luxuries for the two to enjoy, however, this meal was free. Jetuah wasn't overly entangled.

"Tea or coffee?"

After the meal, the service staff appeared at the right time, and after cleaning up the tableware, they politely asked if they wanted to have a break after the meal.

Brigadier General Jetuya habitually asked for a cup of coffee, and I, out of curiosity, opted for black tea, which is said to be Darjeeling black tea from the Pandaren Territory (2).

After the waiter served the tea, not to be driven away by Jetua's adjutant, and he himself was ordered not to come near at will, the interview was a formal subject.

"So let's get to the point. Two pieces of news, one good and one bad, you want to listen to that one first?"

Although the signed order from the Personnel Bureau to assign the Fast Reaction Brigade had been issued and sent to me, the Brigadier General's sudden play of such a hand still made me a little confused. The heart said, "What kind of song is this?"

"Let's listen to the bad first!"

In order to avoid the ups and downs of being overly excited and then being hit, I decided to choose the same thing first.

"In order to silence the nobles, your military rank has been lowered by one level. This means that you are now a captain, but your personal treatment is still that of a major. ”

Hmmm? What is this? Slap me and give me a red date? Instead of being so troublesome, why did you let me rise so fast in the first place?

"At the same time, the appointment order of the Ministry of Personnel has been issued at the first level, I believe you have seen it. ”

"Yes, Brigadier General, I've seen it on the way here. ”

If this is good news, then there is no such thing as good news.

"If I'm not mistaken, you should have half a semester left, right! I think you can use this time to form a brigade of your own. ”

What? Let me build myself? I don't have auditory hallucinations, do I?

"That's the good news you're talking about?"

A look of disbelief.

"What's the matter?

"No! Xia Guan didn't have such thoughts. Just ......"

I feel like it's a bit hard to talk about the latter words. At the same time as the order to de-escalate was given, let me go and form a unit myself. Isn't this a special preparation to embarrass my men?

"The first batch of personnel will be screened from the major military districts, and if it still can't meet your requirements. After that, the General Staff can give you the right to directly select people from the school, no matter which department, as long as you like it, leave unconditionally. ”

I felt like I was about to jump. The maximization of priority is indeed good news.

"Sense...... Thanks!"

I stuttered a little because I felt that my theory had finally been applied to actual combat.

"Still, I'd like to hear as much as I can from you. ”

"The subordinate is a soldier. As long as it is an order, whether it is such an appointment, I will carry it out conscientiously. ”

The Brigadier General's abrupt reversal of voice calmed me down a lot. I know very well in my heart that the so-called listening to opinions is just polite words on the scene.

In this case, the only way to deal with the nonsense is to open your eyes and say nonsense with the same kind words. Only a fool would do that stupid thing to climb up the pole.

It's okay that the other party is sincere, if the other party is just tempting, then you will pay for your stupidity.

"Very good! You can look at the documents for yourself. ”

The Brigadier General seemed pleased with my response, and handed me the letter of appointment and a stack of personnel applications.

After a cursory look, all of them are from the front-line troops, and they are the best in terms of personal quality and combat ability.

"These are the first batch of personnel profiles. ”

Jetua seemed to notice that I was keeping an eye on the personnel list, and said in passing.

"How?"

The Brigadier General urged me, looking anxious to get me to speak.

"Looks like my vacation has become more colorful!"

After the second round of dissertation defense, I will get a short vacation. In fact, I don't like to stay in the school and have too many entanglements with the students who are a bit stupid in reading. And the General Staff also seized this time, they urgently needed a force to make up for the decadence brought about by the war on the Eastern Front. At the same time, it can also cover up the defeat of 101 fast reversal.

"Well, I wish you all the best in your mission. ”

"Thank you, Brigadier General. ”

There's no reason why I shouldn't accept this kind of realization from a private person. It seems that the other party is very optimistic about me. I try to be as sincere as possible.

The Brigadier General nodded, drank the last coffee on the table, and stood up.

"Then, I'll take my leave first, and I'll let my adjutant negotiate with you about the rest of the matter. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do. ”

"Thank you, Brigadier General. ”

Indeed, this kind of communication of appointments can be handled by at most one colonel dispatched by the Ministry of Personnel, but a brigadier general is asked to make a trip in person. If you don't know his mind, it will give people the feeling of making a big fuss.

After Jetuah disappeared from my sight, I remembered the black tea on the table, which was completely cold. Consciously talking to the chief and doing other things is not polite.

The adjutant, who had been on standby for a long time, stepped forward and began to deliver the documents. For example, as a training site for the brigade base, office land, and the coordination of logistics support personnel. When my adjutant had not yet come down to appoint him, these things were things for me to consider.

"The newly formed 102nd Rapid Reaction Brigade will be subordinate to the General Staff, and your immediate commander is Brigadier General Lee Albert. ”

If it's that adult, then it makes sense that my appointment went so smoothly.

"Okay!"

I nodded, indicating that I was already clear.

Signing, questioning, communication, handover.

It's a huge task, so I have more than enough reason to enjoy a free afternoon of black tea.
