"Pidan!" Cornell Barker stopped the Oglien ape-man in the distance.

"Huh?"

Pidan slowly turned his body, holding a cigar thicker than his fingers in his mouth, and looked behind him with puzzled eyes as he snorted, until he saw that it was Cornell Buck, the Rysling Ratman, and then he showed a sincere smile on his face, and said enthusiastically: "It's you!" ”

Because of his high rank, he was assigned to a high-level medical room after being injured.

Therefore, the two have been bedmates for nearly half a month.

Pidan, because he was not too seriously injured, coupled with the metamorphosis of the Euglian ape-man's ability to recover, left the infirmary earlier than Cornell Barker, but the time spent in the infirmary allowed the two to form a certain friendship.

Of course, this has something to do with Cornell Barker's character and demeanor of being born in the aristocracy but not having an aristocratic frame.

"Are you healed?" He pulled out a special cigar and tossed it to Cornell Barker, a smile still on his scarred and fleshy face.

Looking at the cigar thicker than his wrist, Cornell Buck was not polite, opened his mouth and bit off the cigar head, dangling the mechanical arm he had transplanted not long ago, and made various difficult gestures very flexibly, and then a pillar of fire ignited on the surface of the mechanical palm, quickly ignited the thick cigar, "It's okay, although it's not as flexible as my original palm, but it will be able to be used, anyway, it's just used to pull the trigger!" ”

"Alright, let's go in together......" Pidan was about to continue walking, but suddenly stopped, his eyes staring at the human officers who were coming in a group on the other side.

Where there are people, there are factions, and where there are factions, there are strife.

Despite the fact that this Punishment Legion has not been established for a long time, there are already many factions among them—one faction of pure-blooded humans, one faction of sub-races, one faction of aristocratic humans, and one faction of officers who have been promoted from among the commoners......

Speaking of which, the birth of factions is not an accidental circumstance, but an inevitable situation caused by various historical problems.

Like the Council of Lords of Terragao, it shouldn't exist, but it must exist...... To put it mildly, there must also be corresponding factions in the Imperial army to check and balance.

It's also part of politics.

As an Oglin ape-man, Pidan was naturally divided into the sub-species faction, and naturally stood on the opposite side of the other factions.

The senior officers of the penal legion who came in groups on the opposite side were high-ranking officers born into aristocratic families, that is, the so-called aristocratic faction.

Because of his noble birth and rich resume, he feels that he is superior, and with a large number of people, he has suppressed several other factions on weekdays.

Although it has not yet reached the point where it is unstoppable for a while, it is already-for-tat......

However, it stands to reason that this situation should change a little this time around.

After all, he had just experienced a terrible war with the Chaos Demons.

Under this war, forty percent of the eighty legions were directly annihilated, and although the surviving legions survived, they were also crippled in terms of organization and structure.

In particular, some human legions guarding key and important locations, not even the legion commanders survived, only a few big-headed soldiers carrying flags survived...... If there is no effective replenishment of troops, then the withdrawal of these remnants of the regiment is almost a sure thing.

With many legions being crippled or destroyed, there should no longer be quarrels between the originally-for-tat punishment legions over resources and equipment......

But in fact, because of the particularity of the penal legion, the-for-tat situation of each legion has not changed in the slightest, but has become more and more intense.

However, this is not a surprise.

You must know that the Punishment Legion, a cannon fodder corps that is not loved by mothers and uncles, has very few resources, and if you don't fight, there is really nothing.

Therefore, when all the corps commanders were notified to come here for a meeting this time, all the corps commanders were almost ready to quarrel, and were ready to "argue" at the meeting for a while, so as to compete for more resources or replenishment of troops!

"Yo, this isn't Pidan, it's a pity that you're not dead!"

"That's it, that's it, I can't be a deserter!

I didn't see you when I was cleaning the battlefield! ”

The officer corps of the aristocratic faction slowly stopped in front of Pidan and Cornell Barker.

In a strange tone, they let out all sorts of cynicism at the two subspecies commanders in front of them.

"Phew!"

Meng spat out the cigar in his mouth like a bullet, and when Pidan saw that he didn't look at these so-called colleagues, he ignored them and pulled the Lacelyn Rat Man next to him towards the conference hall not far away.

However, Pidan's weakness and concession did not satisfy the officers of these aristocratic factions, but aroused their interest, and they continued to speak, "Ouch, am I guessing true?

No, in the eyes of the marshal, it is not easy to desert, and the few legions that escaped from the battle before were all executed! ”

"Lord Marshal, the battlefield is so chaotic, it is inevitable that there will be some fish that slip through the net, don't you see him with the Lyster Rat Man? These natural liars are the best at fooling around! ”

Pidan couldn't help it now, saying that he could, but not his friend.

Besides, both of their legions were nailed to the fiercest battle, especially the legion led by Cornell Buck who single-handedly blocked the attack from an entire Horrible Chaos Demon Legion with their own strength when they cooperated with the legion to escape!

If only Cornell Barker's legion hadn't resisted the onslaught of the Chaos Demons, or had fled with them.

Then the consequences will be unimaginable...... After all, in such a critical situation, not many legions could withstand a steady stream of enemies like a flood of enemies on their backs!

Pidan quickly turned his head and yelled at the officers of the aristocratic faction with a fierce face: "If you have the guts, say it again! ”

Cornell Buck hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, but Pidan was obviously on the head, but he still sent him aside with a slight force, and continued to look fiercely at the noble officers in front of him.

"Young, still angry?"

"It's not called being angry, it's called being angry!"

"Tut-tut, it seems to be right!"

Pidan waved his palm to tear apart all the "long-tongued women" in front of him.

But what he didn't expect was that a powerful palm fixed his arm firmly in the air, and the aristocratic officers who were still smiling just now also seemed to change their faces, and they all saluted behind Pidan with serious expressions.

Pidan slowly turned his head to see a man in crimson armor all over his body, as bright as a flame, looking at him with cold eyes.

He is the deputy commander of the Punishment Legion, known as the Burning Dog - Des!

"Your Excellency, Commander!" Pidan's years of life in the Imperial Army forced him to raise his palms in salute quickly, but his arm was firmly grasped by Des.

"Heh, are you all idle and have nothing to do?" Des said a word in a cold tone to the officers of the aristocratic faction in front of him, and the latter immediately responded like frightened rabbits, and then ran into the conference hall not far away.

Shaking off the arm in his hand, Des coldly warned, "I don't want to see you attack your colleagues next time, understand?" ”

"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander!"

"Let's go inside, it's your lucky day!" Des carried the strangely shaped black box in his hand and quickly walked into the conference hall.

Pidan and Cornell Barker glanced at each other, unable to understand what Des meant, and had to follow them into the chamber together.

But as soon as they stepped into the conference hall, an extremely fierce gaze suddenly fixed on their bodies, and suddenly the huge coercion flew along this gaze to make them stunned in place.

Fortunately, Pidan was able to withstand the pressure of this gaze with his strong physique, but not Cornell Barker, who was short and thin beside him.

Although he didn't kneel down tremblingly at the first time, he also trembled and began to tremble, and at the same time, dense cold sweat kept breaking out on his forehead.

After a while, if it hadn't been for Pidan pulling him, he would have been unable to hold on, and his knees would have been on his knees as soon as he was weak.

And as this gaze slowly moved away, Cornell Barker finally felt better, and the tremors on his body gradually stopped, but there were still some weak legs, and it seemed that there was no way to relieve himself for a while.

"Let's go!" Pidan dragged Cornell Barker to his place and sat down, and began to chat with his fellow subspecies around him.

Of the eighty penal legions, the number of subracial penal legions was only fifteen, and less than seven survived the great war, two of which were completely disabled...... Among them was Cornell Barker's legion.

You must know that the subracial legion is not like a human legion, but there is nowhere to replenish the troops.

Therefore, if nothing else, it is very likely that the two disabled sub-species legions will be incorporated into the formation of other sub-species legions.

That's why Pidan would be so good to Cornell Barker...... Although Cornell Barker's legionnaires are no longer one in ten, the number of snipers does not need to be that many at all, just enough!

"Dongdong, Dongdong!"

"Silence!" Des, who had already stepped onto the high platform, slapped the table heavily, and he sat down to sit down on his own, and began to write and draw on the papers in his hand.

"My lord, it's all here!"

In the next room, Chen Guo, who had just undergone a gene injection, was wearing a heroic marshal's uniform with the help of Caselle.

After months of genetic injections, his cells have been slowly repaired to their prime.

According to the pharmacist's speculation, after a maximum of 2~3 days of potion injection, he would be able to make up for all the lost lifespans, and at the same time, Chen Guo would once again have the opportunity to use the Blood River Forbidden Method-Gluttonous Multiplication Technique.

To be honest, this set of Blood River Sutras of the Old Man of the Blood River is indeed not a mortal thing, but the price of using it is too high.

Either blood is lost or life is lost...... There aren't some spells that aren't so expensive, but they're not so powerful!

"Alright, alright, next, I'll do it myself!" Chen Guo said softly, for fear that his voice would be louder and noisy to Carssel, who was engrossed.

But what he didn't expect was that Caselle didn't help him put on the marshal's uniform, but he squatted down and helped him put on the boots on his feet, which didn't look like a noble lady at all, but like a dutiful maid!

Silently a little speechless, his face was full of helplessness, Chen Guo turned around and saw Lu Duoyin'er who was trying to hold back a smile in the distance, and immediately rolled his eyes again.

After wearing the boots, Casel helped Chen Guo put on the medal on his chest, and finally began to wear his general's uniform.

Casel is not a vase, although she has not been genetically modified, she is a strategic talent, and she does not need to fight herself, she only needs to stand behind the scenes and command.

Before the establishment of the Second Empire, she had already participated in the defense and patrol missions of the 500 worlds of Otlama as the captain of a fleet, and like many heroes, she had an excellent record of 12 victories.

In addition, seven galaxies have been successfully conquered...... It is no exaggeration to say that although her background is very noble, the set of general uniforms on her body has no moisture at all, and it is completely earned by her own strength and military industry!

And in order to so-called cultivate affection, Killiman was moved by Lady Judton's persuasion, and completely placed Cassel's fleet under the command of the Punishment Legion.

As a result, Casel became the staff general of the Penal Corps and the diplomat of the Legion, specializing in the handover of the Penal Corps.

"I'm all right too!"

"Let's go!"

Leaving the room, Chen Guo went to the main seat on the high platform under the compliments of everyone.

Looking at the surviving regimental officers below, Chen Guo recalled the mobilization speech on the battlefield at that time.

The commanders of the eighty legions, only a little more than half can sit here today.

And by the end of the meeting, I am afraid that there will not be even twenty left.

But that's good, I'd rather be fine, not more!

What's the use of leaving so much cannon fodder, what Chen Guo needs is elite!

"Ladies and gentlemen, I believe you all should know me, I am Jack Smock, your Excellency the Field Marshal.

Congratulations on surviving.

However, I will tell you that such a war may only be an appetizer for you, and you may encounter many such fierce battles in the future.

But there's something to be happy about...... Starting today, you will shed the title of Legion of Punishment and regain your own honor! ”

As he spoke, Chen Guo took the box handed over by Des and pressed the only button in the box hard.

In the next second, a buzzing sound followed, and all the officers of the Punishment Legion looked at the bomb collar that had slipped from their necks with incredible expressions.

"Congratulations, thanks to your own efforts, you have regained your honor!"

"But...... Some legions will be mothballed...... Now, the person whose name I read can leave first.

Your clan will be incorporated into other clans.

However, please rest assured that your establishment is only temporarily mothballed, but at some point in the future, when the supply of troops is completely replenished, your establishment will be reactivated! ”

After Chen Guo finished speaking, he raised his head and glanced at the people below, and saw that the officers below were all mentally prepared, so he immediately nodded, "Cornell Barker, Alva, Grote, Phil and Goldsmith......"

A large number of officers whose establishment had been completely crippled silently got up and left the conference hall.

Soon, there were only nineteen regimental commanders left in the entire conference hall!

Looking at them, Chen Guo pointed to Casel beside him.

"This is the military staff officer and the chief of general affairs and diplomacy of the legion, so let her announce the new number and number of personnel of each legion!"

Caselle nodded, and walked quickly to the front of the stage, she looked at the murderous officers below, and the state of mind that she had cultivated over the years still trembled involuntarily.

Although these officers were restraining the murderous intent in their eyes, the murderous aura that they couldn't help but show continued to stimulate her heart.

She was nervous and a little ...... It's tidal!

Chen Guo slowly put his palm on her shoulder.

Feeling the power that Chen Guo gave him, Caselle took a deep breath.

Gradually regained the feeling of a diplomat, "First of all, the Armed Eagle Legion, you will be changed from an airborne regiment to a ground regiment, for which the legion will equip you with four War Dog-class Titans 125 Riemannrus tanks, and at the same time will replenish your legion with 27,000 men...... Iron Fist Legion, you will be promoted to the main warband, and you will be provided with one hundred and fifty sets of power armor, and you will receive the Rysling Legion under the command of Cornell Buck, and you will be equipped with special weapons...... Purple Cabbage Legion! ”

Louis Meg raised her head slightly, was it finally him?

As a pure human nobleman, Louis Meg is not the same as ordinary human nobles, he is a human nobleman born in Terra, belongs to the nobles of the nobility, and the Purple Cabbage Legion he leads is also a legion composed of pure nobles.

Louis Meg is a loyal man to the Empire, but unfortunately by chance he accidentally helps Astarte of the Emperor's Sons Legion and Astarte of the Ultra Warrior Legion in a battle.

Then, he found that the Legion of the Emperor's Sons, who had just stood behind them, had suddenly withdrawn, leaving him and his legion alone to face the powerful Ultramarine, Astarte.

Although he surrendered in time and made the situation clear, he was still classified as a traitor by the angry Extreme Legion Astarte, and was assigned to the Punishment Legion, so he was forced to participate in the previous Chaos Demon War.

As a pure Terra nobleman, Louis Meg commanded an elite Imperial Navy, and his father worked in the Imperial Colony Department, responsible for managing the colonial status of the solar system, and he could probably be regarded as a high-ranking Imperial official!

But compared to his grandfather, Louis Meg and his father don't seem to be the same...... His grandfather was only one step away from ascending to the throne of the first High Lord in the election of the first High Lord.

Although he failed in the end, his family is still very glorious and is considered the top nobles in the empire!

However, no one knew about Louis Meg's origins, including his closest subordinates, except that their legionnaire was a nobleman from Terra.

Other than that, they don't know anything.

Louis Meg is a man of great pride, who, like Cassel, has earned everything by himself.

Louis Meg wanted to win that supreme honor on his own, not like his twenty-five brothers and seventeen younger brothers, who relied on the power of the family to eat and wait for death!

While listening to Cassell's changes to his legion on stage, he silently touched the place around his neck where the bomb collar was originally tied.

I don't know why, but he suddenly had a hunch.

That is to stay here, although there is the possibility of death at every moment, but you can get the supreme glory!
