Chapter 41 The Military Attache System of the Province of Blago
Next.
Saga woke up from his sleep, got up, dressed, and got out of bed.
A servant happened to come, and the governor of Chels invited him over for breakfast.
Zachar washed up a little, and then walked out after the servant.
The Governor of Chels and his family were already seated at the table, and Saga hurried a few steps. Come to the table: "Good morning, everyone. β
"Good morning, Mr. Zachar. The Chels family said in unison.
"How was your rest last night?" asked Governor Chels, smiling.
Sagar pulled out a chair and sat down, and replied, "Well rested, thank you for your hospitality." β
"That's good, let's dine. β
"Breakfast was a bit simple, I hope Mr. Sagar doesn't mind. Lady Chrissy said apologetically.
In fact, the food on the table is not simple, on the contrary, it is very varied.
One cup of milk, coffee, and juice each is placed on the left-hand side for Saga to choose by himself.
There are four types of bread, followed by a row of jams, and almost every flavor is available, as well as two flavors of sausage, bacon, and fresh steak, medium rare, medium rare, medium rare, medium rare, and fully rare.
"Madam, you are so polite, such a sumptuous breakfast, even I don't have much to eat in the imperial capital. In the face of the hospitality of the Governor of Chels's family, Sachar naturally did not hesitate to praise himself.
Breakfast passed in a happy way.
After breakfast, Saga was invited by Governor Chels to talk in his study.
Saga happened to have something to ask, and the two of them came out of the dining room and headed straight for the study.
The study was simply furnished, with Governor Chels sitting behind his desk and Sachar sitting across from him.
"You're going to take office today, do you have any ideas? Governor Chels tapped his fingers lightly on the desk, "I'll try to help you." β
"Your Excellency, tell me first, who are the figures in the military attache system of Blago Province today?" Zaga muttered for a moment, and asked a question first.
"Well, that's it. Governor Chels nodded, and then spoke: "From the Governor downwards, there is no officer in the province who is higher in rank than you. β
"How is this possible?" Zaga was a little incredulous, the provinces of the empire were already so rotten?
"What about the commander of Army Group Blago, and what about the chief of staff of the corps?" he asked.
In order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the army, the military system of the Emerald Empire is a very simple system, that is, a vertical management system.
For example, in the province of Blago, the highest official is the Governor, which is a pure military attachΓ©, and since the Empire has always ruled over civilian officials with military attachΓ©s, the Governor rules over all officials in the province.
The highest military attache under the Governor is the commander of the provincial army, which is all the regular army and auxiliary corps in the province.
The chief of staff is roughly the position of the military division, and is generally referred to as the deputy commander-in-chief, assisting the commander-in-chief in commanding the army.
Below the deputy commander is the commander of the Grand Army, who is usually the commander of the regular army, but has more power, in addition to his regular army, he can also command the auxiliary army that fights with him.
Further down is Zachar's current position, the commander of the corps, who is usually an officer who charges at the front line, under the command of the deputy commander.
There is no relationship between the commander of the legion and the commander of the Grand Legion, but generally speaking, it is still considered that the rank of the Grand Commander is higher than that of the Legion Commander, and when encountering more important things, the main thing is that the Legion Commander obeys the orders of the Grand Commander.
Now that the Governor of Chels said that there was no military attache in the whole province of Blago with a higher rank than Sagar, it meant that there was not even a Grand Army Commander.
"What's impossible about this. Governor Chels was very calm, and took the teapot on the desk and brought himself and Saga a glass of water.
Then he began to give Saga a detailed account of the current situation in the province of Blago: "The current province of Blago, the main kingdom of the elves is in charge of security, and this period is one year. β
"The main thing is that the regular army of the former province of Blago is all from other provinces, and there are no soldiers of their own. β
"Now Your Majesty has appointed you as the Commander of the Legion, and let you form your own Legion. But you should know very well that the regular army of the empire is numbered fifty and 250,000 people, and it will definitely not expand its army without important wars. β
"So in order for you to build a legion, then naturally you need to dismantle some legions that were not very useful in the past, so the original thirty-fourth and thirty-seventh legions are now empty shells, and the soldiers have basically been sent home. β
"The original officials have also returned to their original provinces to report on their duties, and they have all left the battle sequence of Blago Province. β
"That's probably the case. Governor Chels frowned and thought for a moment, making sure he was almost finished, and looked up at Zachar.
"You mean, the original military attache system in Blago Province was a completely foreign team?" Zaga immediately grasped the point of his words.
"That's right," Governor Chels nodded appreciatively and said with a smile, "Blago Province was originally a member of the Empire's Southern Theater of Operations, and for some special reasons, the Empire has not allowed the local heroes in Blago Province to enter the army on a large scale, all of which caused this situation. β
"Are you worried about the rebellion of the tribes?" asked Zachar softly.
"That's right, after all, they have too many of their clans still in the mountains of the south, and once the empire uses troops, it is inevitable that some people will sabotage the empire's plans out of 'sympathy'. β
"How are the Blago people who have a heart for the Empire?" Sagar's brow furrowed slightly, as if something was wrong.
"There are 600,000 freedmen in the province, and about 300,000 in the three cities of Blago, Elev, and Filson, as well as in the surrounding villages and towns, are completely loyal to the Empire. Governor Chels thought for a moment and said, "The commander of the auxiliary legion, the captain of the thousand-man brigade, and the hundred-man commander are basically from these three cities. β
"Three hundred thousand. Sagar thought for a moment, "That should be enough." β
"Lord Governor, I need you to find me someone who is well versed in the various plants in the province of Blago, and I have something to ask him. β
"Then there is the conscription, the legion must be rebuilt quickly, about 15,000 men must be conscripted, first a corps will be formed, and the rest of the soldiers will continue to train in preparation for the second legion. β
"As for the auxiliary legions, they will be recruited from the other four cities in the future. β
"Well, since you have a plan, then do as you say, and I will do it for you as soon as possible. β
"Thank you, sir. β
"You're welcome, it's all for the Empire. β
