324 enlisted
The western suburbs of Chang'an, originally a vacant land, often have noble children come here to ride horses and gallop wildly, and later they were rented by several noble children and built a horse farm, covering an area of about 100 acres. Nearby civilians set up stalls around the racecourse, eating, drinking and having fun, and a new commercial district was quickly formed.
Today, the racecourse is gone, and the small traders and vendors are nowhere to be seen. I saw flags fluttering, camp tents like stars, and nearly 100 high platforms arranged in an orderly manner. A team of majestic and majestic soldiers maintained order on the scene.
This is the time to enlist in the military once a year. Imperial recruitment is mainly divided into two modes, one is to enlist in the army, and the other is to enlist in the army by examination. Enlistment in the military is mandatory, and those who meet the requirements are called up and must complete their military service. This part is mostly for the commoners, and the nobles will not be drafted.
The second article is for all classes, and the recruits are elites. Like the major elite groups in the empire, they basically use this mode of selection and examination to recruit soldiers. And the first one, more is that the local garrison is recruiting.
The army of the empire is complex and chaotic, and in general it is divided into four systems, one is the border army, which is the most elite, the most well-equipped, the strongest in combat effectiveness, and the most stringent system. The border army was divided into five major battalions, which were divided into southeast, northwest, and middle, and their task was to deal with foreign enemies. Like the Xuanyuan Valve's northbound battalion is the border army, which mainly deals with the northern orc empire. The southbound camp of the Thunder Valve is mainly to deal with the Majin Empire in the south. The eastward camp of the Oriental Valve is to guard against the coastal monsters, and to assist the Thunder Valve in resisting the demons. The camp was divided into several blocks, mainly to deal with a few small races and a narrow chaotic strip to the west. The Zhengzhong Battalion, which mainly guards Gyeonggi and is also the reserve force of the empire, rotates to the other four major battalions every year.
The border army was considered a regular standing army of the empire, and its budget and deployment were directly subordinate to the military department. Of course, the Xuanyuan Valve's northward camp has great autonomy, and it does not listen to the Xuan, and sometimes it does not even listen to the tune. Because the governor who controls the northbound camp has the title of secretary of the military department, and the northbound camp has always been in a wartime state.
The second major system is the local garrison
Nominally, they also have to obey the military department, but in fact they are mostly under local management. The private armies of the nobles were also mostly included in this system, so they were chaotic and elite, but on the whole they were weaker than the border armies.
The third system is the dispatch army, which is a temporary army. Most of the military headquarters only gave a number and sealed a few generals, and as for the equipment and food, the supply was limited. This is also the most confusing system at present, and even the military department is not clear. Most of them were confined to the weak military areas of the frontier and left to fend for themselves.
The fourth system is the Imperial Forest Army, which is subordinate to the royal family, which is the core force of the royal family. As for the equipment and combat power, it is still a mystery, most of them are maintaining the Gyeonggi guards, and occasionally they go to various camps for training. The Imperial Forest Army is not under the jurisdiction of the military department, but under the emperor himself, and those who can join the Imperial Forest Army are almost all children of nobles, and only a small number of civilians.
Today, the troops who are enlisted in the examination under this arrangement mainly come from the two major systems of the border army and the imperial forest army. Among the ten major special combat regiments subordinate to the border army, except for the high-flying demon hunting regiment and the tulip regiment, the other eight major regiments have come. Lian Yuan is fighting the Orcs in the Blood Moon Legion, the Iron Wing Legion, and the Iceberg Undefeated Flower Legion
These three legions are all subordinate to the Northbound Battalion, and the Blood Moon Legion ranks third among the top ten. It can be seen from this that the Xuanyuan valve has a strong combat power, because there are constant battles all year round, and it is easier to give birth to elite corps.
The Thunder Dragon Corps belonging to the Imperial Forest Army, the Thunderblade Corps belonging to the southbound camp, the Dragon God Corps belonging to the eastbound camp, the Storm Corps belonging to the westbound camp, and the Fire Phoenix Corps belonging to the middle camp. The Fire Phoenix Legion is an all-female corps, ranking ninth in the top ten.
The number of the first 10 corps ranged from 300 to 1,000, and none of the 10 special operations corps exceeded 1,000. The mortality rate is more than 30% every year, and they have their own reserve to replenish their blood source, and the number of places to take the exam every year is very limited.
Among these top ten special operations regiments, as long as you ensure that you don't die for three years, it is easy to mix up the rank of colonel. This is too
The reason why many people want to squeeze their heads in.
Students from all major colleges and universities are flocking here today, and high-end aristocratic colleges and universities like the Royal Academy, in addition to admiring the Dragon Legion, most of them will give up other legions and choose to become ordinary Imperial Guards.
Like the Star Academy, most of them are civilians, and they are eager to enter any special combat unit, as long as they can enter, their status will increase greatly, and they will have a little hope of entering and exiting the land.
Today, Song Qingyi, Mu Guanran, An Delie, Tie Dun, Zhang Taihua, Zhang Yin and others all came here to take the exam, each choosing the regiment they admired. First, you have to fill out a form, and then you go through the initial test. The test is mainly two-part, one literary and one martial. The text is naturally a cultural class or something, and the martial arts is a basic test, and a few people naturally pass the test easily.
But this is only preliminary, and there will be a confrontational selection later. Song Qingyi's choice was actually the Storm Corps in the westbound camp, which was at the bottom of the top ten special combat regiments. Of course, although it is at the bottom, it is also the most elite kind.
The Storm Corps is active in the southwest and northwest regions, and sometimes has to go deep into the chaotic realm to carry out secret missions, which is more dangerous and challenging than other special operations corps.
Mu Wanran chose the Fire Phoenix Corps without hesitation, and his eyes were full of fire. She is confident that she will succeed in the exam. There is no doubt that she is excellent, and her fighting style is also very much in line with the fire phoenix.
The fire phoenix belongs to the Zhengzhong camp, in fact, it is directly subordinate to the general staff of the military department, in addition to often performing personal protection work for noblewomen, it also often goes to other camps to carry out secret tasks. Sometimes, it is inconvenient for men, so women have to come forward.
Andrew and Iron Pier join hands in the Thunderblade Corps, and they seem to prefer to fight the demons. Now, humans and demons have been at peace for nearly a hundred years, and there have been no large-scale conflicts, but small-scale conflicts have continued. Infiltration between each other is even more ubiquitous, and the best thing for Thunderblade Soldiers is small-scale infiltration and counter-infiltration operations.
Zhang Taihua chose the dragon god because he himself was from the Ningzhou area, and he returned to his hometown to kill two birds with one stone. Zhang Yin chose the Blood Moon.
