Chapter 103: Appointment
The next day, Arnold and Chernobyl slept until the sun rose before waking up, greeted Chernobyl, put on a brand new military uniform, and went to the barracks to report. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Arnold arrived at the Western Barracks and first reported to his superior, Balke, the commander of the Second Column.
The army of the mainland is divided into, army groups, corps, columns, battalion brigades, brigades, squadrons, squads.
Among them, the group army, on the continent, is only possessed by an empire-level power.
Adelaide is a medium-sized country that cannot afford a large army group, and the Brilliant Fortress has only 4 columns.
The strength of the army varies from country to country, but it is generally believed that ten people are a squad, a hundred people are a squadron, and a thousand people are a brigade.
There are 3,000 in a battalion, and tens of thousands in the most.
A column can range from tens of thousands to 50,000.
The Legion is a special unit, and it is also the highest unit in general, with a large number ranging from 50,000 to 200,000, and there are also special elite regiments, some countries deliberately reduce the number of combatants to 10,000, and the remaining 40,000 are reserve battalions.
The Red Red Regiment in Adelaide is one of them. It's a pity that in the offensive and defensive battle with the undead, with one enemy and ten, more than half of the losses made Reg really painful, and he had to transfer tens of thousands of soldiers from the reserve battalion from the kingdom again.
And a group army, at least 200,000 troops, this is already the strength of the whole of Adelaide, and it is impossible to unify it at all.
From this, it can be seen how strong the military strength of an empire is, and the group army is also a rare existence in the empire.
When Arnold saw Balk, he realized that he had beaten a high-level undead in a move at the Angels and Demons Bar last time, and he was immediately a little interested.
Especially curious about his weapon called the "Scarlet Blade".
Balk gave Arnold a serious look, and without saying anything, he waved him to get busy, so that Arnold could hold all his words in his stomach.
Arnold walked out of the general ledger, looked up at the height of the sun, and thought to himself, it seems that this boss is a doer, does not like to talk nonsense, is not the kind of person who slaps horses, such a person, as long as he does things well, there will be no trouble.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm your new battalion commander, Arnold Jean, so let's introduce myself briefly. In the largest tent in the Seventh Battalion, Arnold sat at the top, looking at the four people who were sitting scattered and precariously below, and was a little surprised.
"Battalion commander, I'm Captain Fergordon of the First Brigade. "This big black man Arnold saw yesterday.
"Battalion Commander, I'm Miles Captain of the Second Brigade. The emaciated young man sitting opposite Fergordon stood up and gave a standard military salute, his face resolute, and his movements were unthinking, as if carved out of a mold.
"Hello battalion commander, my name is Hunter, I am the instructor in charge of the recruits, and I am also the captain of the acting third brigade. "Talking is a fat man, no, a somewhat mellow and honest uncle, it is hard to imagine that he is an instructor who teaches recruits, but more like a profiteer.
"Battalion. Long, you. Well, my name is Pace, and I'm the armament officer in charge of supplies. Sitting at the end, a slightly short, yellow-faced young man quietly got up and nervously made the last introduction.
"Hey, it's a young man who does the same job as himself. "He doesn't look very old, but he can do the most profitable position at a young age, either with a backstage or a very capable person.
"Hunter, tell me why you're a Acting Captain. Arnold asked Hunter with a grin as he propped his hands on the table.
"Battalion commander, our seventh battalion originally had four captains, but because of the last war, two were sacrificed, and because of the fierce battle, the former battalion commander temporarily promoted me to the captain of the third brigade, and there is still a lack of recognition from the military department. Hunter wiped the cold sweat from his head and said carefully.
The former battalion commander died in battle after he was promoted, and this order was known to only a few people, and it was unknown whether the military department admitted it or not.
So he knew if he could get rid of the previous generation and completely control Arnold's hands.
"Fergordon, Myers, you are Hunter's old comrades-in-arms, do you think he is up to the task, do you have any other opinions? ”
Fergordon and Miles were stunned at the same time, not expecting Arnold to ask them this question.
The two looked at each other, and seeing that Arnold was still looking at them, Miles motioned for Fergordon to answer.
"Battalion commander, I personally think Hunter is up to the task. Although Hunter is usually too tactful, I am ashamed to lose the temperament of a soldier. Fergordon glanced at Hunter, who was in a cold sweat, and continued: "However, as an old man of the Seventh Battalion for many years, the instructor of the recruits is fully capable and competent in military affairs, and there is no doubt about his loyalty. So I don't have a problem with Hunter being the captain of the third team. ”
That's my answer, too. Miles saw that Fergordon had finished speaking, and hurriedly added.
Arnold looked at the nervous Pace, so he didn't continue to ask him, and directly got up and said to Hunter with a smile: "Okay, since everyone has no opinion, from today on, you will be the official captain of the third brigade, and I will talk about it from the military headquarters." ”
"Ah, thank you. Thank you, Camp Commander. ”
"Alright. Arnold clapped his hands, interrupting Hunt's words of gratitude, although he had not done it properly, he knew that he had simply let his subordinates get the initial recognition.
Next, Arnold briefly explained the latest orders of the military department, which are nothing more than rectification, training, waiting for new recruits or veterans to be stationed, etc.
After all, I just finished a big battle, and I continue to rest and recuperate.
"Vogordon, let's talk about the situation of our seventh battalion and how many people are left. ”
"Yes. ”
Fergordon was obviously ready, took out a shabby notebook, and read: "At present, there are 562 combatants left in the seventh battalion, including those who are slightly wounded. ”
"Among them, there are 241 people in the first brigade, 221 people in the second brigade, 100 people in the third brigade, and 0 people in the fourth brigade. Speaking of which, Fergordon made a slight explanation, this is that he added the original third and fourth brigades to the first and second brigades, and it was not until Hunter came that he transferred back 100 people to his third brigade.
Arnold nodded, his heart was heavy, he didn't expect that a camp with a full capacity of 4,000 people would only have more than 500 people left. Although it is a second-rate army of the kingdom, the attrition is too tragic.
"Battalion commander, I'll say more about vacancies in the lower middle ranks. Vacancies for Deputy Battalion Commanders, Vacancies for Clerks, Vacancies for Reconnaissance Squadron Leaders, Vacancies for Recruit Instructors, Vacancies for Pro-Soldier Captains. After Fergordon finished speaking, he gently put down the notebook, and the atmosphere in the military tent suddenly became heavy.
"This is really a waste to be done. Arnold sighed, closed his eyes in contemplation, and suddenly got up.
"Hunter, you used to be a recruit instructor, then you will work part-time again, and now the personnel are vacant, so I can only work hard for you. ”
"It's the battalion commander. Hunter responded loudly, and his spirits were absolutely good.
"Pace, you count all the supplies and report them to me. ”
"Yes. ”
"Fergordon, Miles, you draw 20 clever people from each team, and first assemble the team of the reconnaissance squadron, and the captain of the reconnaissance squadron, I will arrange it. "Arnold wants to go to Raphael's side to ask for someone, and the people in his team are all high-achieving students, and it is more than enough for anyone to be the reconnaissance captain.
"Yes. ”
"The deputy battalion commander doesn't need it at the moment, but the secretary still wants it, do you have any people under your command who understand writing, whether it is a soldier under your hand, or an introduction from relatives and friends, I don't need him to be very powerful, as long as he is obedient and can write. ”
"The battalion commander, my personal soldier Dana, who was once a student of the academy, should be competent. Fergordon's eyes lit up when he heard Arnold's words, and he preemptively spoke.
"Okay, let him report in the afternoon. Arnold had in mind the soldier leading the way.
"Miles, you go to the military headquarters tomorrow to urge, when will the soldiers be replenished to our seventh battalion. ”
"Yes. Myers bowed in response.
"In the end, the pro-soldiers have already been selected, I will bring 3 friends to join in the afternoon, Fergordon, you help register, the number of pro-soldiers does not need to be large, only 10 people. Arnold was talking about the three Shazo brothers.
"Yes. Fergordon looked respectful and had some admiration on his face.
Arnold was relieved that he had solved all the problems in one go.
"My lord, all the people of the seventh camp have been assembled. Suddenly, a figure entered the tent and reported to Arnold.
Arnold looked at everyone questioningly.
"Battalion commander, it's my attention, I want you to boost the morale of the big guys. Fergordon said on his own initiative.
Arnold thought about it, didn't know what Fergordon was paying attention to, and it shouldn't be a bad thing to see everyone, so he said yes.
"Okay. Then we'll finish our session and go to the playground together. ”
