Chapter 54: Political Correctness

After the successful completion of the division, the Fifth Army breathed a sigh of relief. In the past seven days, there have been so many twists and turns.

As the brightest cub, Hudson earned enough eyeballs as soon as he entered the coalition camp. However, everyone's eyes are mainly focused on the cub, and they are more envious and jealous of him, the lucky one.

It was all a normal reaction, and it did not rise to the level of "hate", which made Hudson feel very gratified. It turns out that he does not have the constitution to pull hatred.

There is more than one thing to be happy about, the allies who followed Earl Pierce to heal their wounds last night have all returned.

Hudson had to sigh: The High Priest is really powerful! Those who lack arms and short legs can be picked up, and they can be directly recovered and discharged from the hospital in one step, which is almost overwhelming.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but vaguely Hudson found that the vitality of these people has decreased a lot. However, it is worth it to be able to exchange for sound limbs and a few years of life.

Secretly, Hudson also made a decision, he did not seek treatment from the priest unless he had to do so, and it was best not to suffer even the injuries. The effect of the priest's treatment is really powerful, but it can't stand this thing's kryptonite!

It is no wonder that the life span of knights is seriously polarized, and a serious injury can cost a few years of life, and the natural life of a knight who often goes to war is not long.

Everything was simple on the battlefield, and the reception banquet naturally did not exist, but was replaced by a military meeting. It can be seen that the nobles of the kingdom are still very pragmatic and do not engage in bells and whistles.

As a mid-level officer, Hudson had the privilege of attending a military conference, only the seat changed, and he went straight into the top ten.

Everything comes from strength, and the world of nobility is so realistic. As the commander of the regiment with the most outstanding records and achievements since the beginning of the war, Hudson was eligible to enjoy this treatment.

Theoretically, yes, but intuition told Hudson that there must be political motives to such an arrangement. Not only did he enter the top 10 from the bottom, but the ranks of the officers of the Fifth Army who participated in the meeting were greatly improved.

As the unit with the lowest combat effectiveness among the five armies, it is absolutely impossible for it to suddenly gain such a status just because of its outstanding combat performance.

If you really count it, the performance of the Fifth Army is only barely passing, and it is not excellent at all.

In the face of everyone's surprised gaze, except for a few who were able to remain calm, most of the nobles of the Fifth Army were on pins and needles.

Hudson still greeted his acquaintance calmly, as if none of this had anything to do with him, and there was nothing unusual on his face.

The seat was set by Earl Pierce himself, and the intention of elevating the Fifth Army was so obvious that anyone could see at a glance that there was no such thing as a stick kill, and there must be a purpose behind it.

The waiting time is long, obviously it is just a cup of tea, but for many people, it seems like three autumns.

"This is Count Vlado, who has been ordered by the King to investigate the matter of the Blood Moon Horn, and I hope that you will cooperate vigorously. I now give the floor to Count Vlado, to address you. ”

Earl Pierce smiled and introduced to everyone.

"Pierce, they're all old friends, why are you still so polite. If you want to check the Blood Moon Horn, you will have to wait until you take the city of Dadir.

Although I have the king's command, I am not good at military affairs. This is your barracks, so you should continue to preside over the military meeting, and I can just sit in on it. ”

The simple conversation also exposed the identities of the two. is also the earl of the kingdom, but the status is very different. Even as an envoy of the king, he could not bridge the status gap between the court counts and the fiefdom counts.

Count Vlado was obviously a clever man, and instead of taking the lead as the king's envoy, he wisely chose to retreat into the background and hand over the reins to Governor Pierce.

The two bigwigs did not fight for power, which was undoubtedly a good thing for the officers who participated in the meeting.

"Haha......"

After laughing, Pierce said arrogantly: "Since that's the case, then I'm welcome." ”

It can be seen that he has no intention of relinquishing the lead from the beginning to the end. The politeness just now was purely to give the king face.

However, face can be given, but military command must not be conceded, and this is a matter of principle.

"The higher-ups of the Skull and Bones Society are all in the city, and based on the information gathered, they are preparing a great sacrifice to summon the evil gods to descend.

However, their plan was destroyed yesterday by the Fifth Army. The rebel convoy carrying the sacrifices encountered the Fifth Army and was completely annihilated more than a dozen miles away.

Some of the sacrifices are missing, and this sacrifice will definitely be greatly discounted. However, we still can't take it lightly, and it's best to conquer Dadir before the enemy sacrifice is completed.

After all, in addition to the rebels, who are enemies on the surface, we must also be wary of enemies hidden in the shadows.

We all know that there is a mysterious organization that has been working against the kingdom in a vain attempt to overthrow our rule.

In the face of such an evil enemy, we cannot relax in the slightest. The Fifth Army did a good job yesterday, directly killing all the enemies who came to the fore.

For the credit of the Fifth Army, Count Vlado and I will report the kingdom truthfully. I hope that you will learn from the decisiveness of the Fifth Army, and that you will not have any mercy when you encounter such an enemy, and that you must ...... all of them at the first time."

After listening to Earl Pierce's explanation, the doubts in everyone's minds were instantly solved. It's not how strong the Fifth Army's record is, it's purely the Fifth Army's performance in killing the "Holy See cavalry", which makes the bigwigs very satisfied.

Everyone had been killed, and whether intentionally or not, the nobles of the Fifth Army were on the opposite side of the Holy See. In the Alpha Kingdom, where kingship and theocracy are at odds, this is political correctness.

It is conceivable that, for the purpose of setting an example, the nobles of the Fifth Army will definitely be treated favorably.

Not pursuing the responsibility for private robbery is only secondary, and it will definitely get a bonus in the pacification of the war, and the distribution of territory will be taken care of.

Even for a long time to come, there is no need to worry about being deliberately targeted by your colleagues. Because no one wants to be suspected of "colluding with the Holy See".

In the face of the smiling faces of their colleagues full of kindness, the expressions of the nobles of the Fifth Army were also very exciting, surprised, apprehensive, and panicked...... The expressions variety.

Hudson, on the other hand, was much more calm. What was to be expected, from the moment he identified the enemy, he knew that he was involved in a storm maelstrom.

Fortunately, in the game of kingship and divine power, the Alpha Kingdom did not fall into disadvantage. Although the Holy See is powerful, it is thousands of miles away, and it can't care about taking revenge on these little people for a while.

Rather than worrying about retaliation from the Holy See, it is better to take advantage of the opportunity. After all, the Aslant Continent is a place where strength speaks, as long as the fist is big enough, it is naturally not afraid of the Holy See's retaliation.

What's more, compared to a group of hard-pressed colleagues, he also harvested an Earth Bear cub. As long as this goods are raised to adulthood, it is equivalent to an extra elite regiment.

There was no surprise, and in the following military deployment, the Fifth Army, which was greatly damaged, was reduced to a reserve.

No one raised any objections, not even the most belligerent Knight Jim in the Fifth Army.

With the added bonus of political correctness, there are enough combat exploits for the Fifth Army. If you rob others again, you are pulling hatred.

Of course, the most important thing is that everyone's private army has suffered heavy losses, and they don't have the strength to compete with other nobles at all.
