Joint exercises?!

The Legion Commanders were all stunned.

The experienced veteran generals wondered in their hearts: as soon as they arrived at the local camp, they were about to start the exercise, and they were in a hurry, right?

The legion has just arrived, and it is precisely in need of rest and recuperation, so that those soldiers and ruffians can familiarize themselves with the local conditions, and have an excessive adaptation period, so as to prevent them from causing a large number of sickness, injuries and attrition due to water and soil adaptation, or other reasons.

All of them have fought all their lives and have extremely rich experience, so they naturally know that at this time, they should first stabilize their camps, understand the specific situation of each unit, integrate all the forces under them, and straighten out the relationship.

In short, it is not too late to get the command system smooth first, and then start the exercise.

But......

Looking at the resolute expression on the face of Grand Duke Julius, it seemed that he had made up his mind, so in Chapter 967 Dragon Slaying Points (Asking for a Monthly Pass), although these people had some doubts in their hearts, they did not say it.

These corps commanders, as troop commanders, just take care of their own mess. You only need to follow the order, when it's time to charge, let the younger brothers go up and cut people, and when it's time to retreat, run away with the big guys. As for the rest, they basically don't care either.

Just like back then, when Lord Luo raised troops to attack Almohad, when he grabbed credit, he ran faster than a rabbit. Later, it became even more intense, and when he seized the opportunity, he searched those nobles everywhere and scraped their land.

As for the whole army, how about the supply and transportation? These are all things that need to be worried about by the high-level, and the lord can't be busy just holding money, how can he have that time to take care of those things?

Correspondingly, now these army commanders are only in charge of the snow in front of their own doors, and in addition to the different positions, they do not have the overall situation as Lorraine and Julius do, so they naturally do not know that the peacekeeping force is now encountering major problems.

The archbishops of the Holy See did not understand the meaning of the exercise, and they had no military experience at all.

They just took it for granted that the so-called exercise was a simulated operation, and everyone rehearsed according to Chapter 967 Dragon Slaying Points (asking for a monthly ticket) according to the possible situation on the battlefield.

Of course, it's more like riding out on a horse every autumn, getting a bow and arrow, a spear or something, robbing the harvest, and collecting the food of the common people.

Therefore, these archbishops have nothing to do with this: then the drill is a drill, or a drill, just so that the people of Ruman can see the power of the Templars of the Holy See.

The bale bishops had a lot of faith in the Templars they had brought with them.

In order to show himself in front of His Majesty the new Pope as much as possible, so that he can climb to a higher position in the future, many people bring the elite who can fight under their own hands.

When those knights usually go to the countryside to rob the food of the common people, they are very brave. Wearing armor and riding a horse, one person can beat the old man and the old lady who crawl down half of the village. Purely from the perspective of individual soldiers, maybe they are really better than ordinary soldiers.

However, in addition to them, there are also some experienced veteran generals who lead the Holy See legions.

Among the branch halls of the Holy See all over the country, there are also some archbishops who are self-aware and know how many bowls of dry rice they can eat, or for other reasons, they are unwilling to lead troops. and entrusted them with the leadership of those troops.

At this time, these people also felt puzzled in their hearts.

Still, whether they want to or not. They all know very well that it is the duty of a soldier to obey orders, not to uphold justice.

Therefore, since the commander-in-chief has issued an order, they only have the obligation to carry it out, and have no power to question.

Seeing that there was no objection from everyone present, Lorraine immediately waved his hand and asked the staff to bring out a map of Almohads the size of an entire wall.

On this delicate map, the location of each legion has been marked with small flags of various colors, and it is densely packed with a large area.

Lorraine walked to the map, pointed to the markers on the map with the baton in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Gentlemen, this exercise is completely close to actual combat, and it is a confrontational exercise with real troops and live ammunition. You are required to be fully loaded, carrying all the materials and manuscript weight.

You think it's like a war. The results and results of the exercise will serve as an important basis for judging your meritorious deeds.

The General Staff Department has a complete, absolutely just, fair and open guild points system, and a military points evaluation system. Absolutely no black-box operation.

Each clan commander and each clan have twelve original points. Points are added if you do well, and points are deducted if you don't do well.

At the end of the exercise, the 20 corps commanders with the lowest points will be reduced in salary and demoted to retain them to see the after-effects. Those with high points have priority in military dispatch, and the distribution of loot occupies a correspondingly higher distribution ratio, and can even be directly exchanged for loot with the corresponding points"

Do you understand?" As soon as they heard that they had made meritorious deeds, they had to be eliminated from the last position, and these corps commanders instantly came to their senses, and if they didn't pay attention to it, it was a matter of their official position and future.

Why did everyone sharpen their heads, even at the cost of demotion, to infiltrate the peacekeeping forces, expedition to Almohad, and bulldoze Haddou, not because this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to brush up on prestige.

As long as you add such a sum to your resume, you can greatly add a few points when it comes to appreciation and promotion.

Even if you can't be promoted, at least you can retire with a plus level of treatment.

Seeing Lorraine move out of the last elimination, they all know in their hearts that this time it seems to be a real game. It's not like playing games in the past.

"Okay, let's come on. "Everyone has this idea in their hearts, fame is only taken immediately, there is no first in literature, there is no second in martial arts, there is no will to fight, and they can't mix with the level of the commander of the legion.

Everyone stared at the map and listened intently to Lorraine's explanation.

Lorraine said: "Gentlemen, don't underestimate this exercise. Our rhetoric is: sweat more in peacetime, and bleed less in wartime.

When everyone heard this, they were shocked. Even the most casual person sat up straight. Although this slogan has been cocooned in the ears of the era when the lord came, it is precisely because of this that it can better explain its correctness.

Those who go to the battlefield to fight their lives all hope that they can survive the war.

And now, Lorraine pointed out to them a way to save their lives in the war, and of course everyone was interested in it.

Some people even took out a small notebook and carefully recorded the words of the lord, so that they could be used when they went back and did ideological work for their younger brothers.

Lorraine continued at this time: "Let me talk about the content of the exercise, the first stage is the march~!"

All corps commanders will receive an order from the headquarters informing you of the destination of their legion and the deadline for arrival, and each corps must arrive at the designated position within the time specified in the order, and those who fail to arrive within the time limit ........."

Lorraine glanced at them and said, "The Legion Commander and the Legion will each deduct six points and have a demerit. The legion commanders grinned and muttered in their hearts: This is too ruthless, it is six points all at once.

Lorraine continued: "The second stage is a real confrontation, in which the General Headquarters randomly decides on the Red and Blue Fronts, with the Red Army and the Blue Army fighting against each other. The headquarters does not have a director's office, and it does not interfere with your command operations.

Three points are added to the winner, and three points are deducted by the loser. ”

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the leaders of the Rumandi ** involuntarily glanced at the archbishop of the Holy See.

The guys' expressions changed, and their eyes suddenly became very eager, as if they had seen a group of Uncle Big Wolf in Little Red Riding Hood.

Holding a knife and fork in his hand, he gulps down his prey without dipping it in sauce.

Everyone knows that these inexperienced archbishops are a group of soft-footed shrimp, and a group of self-righteous soft-footed shrimp, that is, they meet a group of rookie teams in the arena, and they can win them by playing whatever they want, and these guys are the best tools for a group of points.

The archbishops were startled by the drooling group of strange uncles around them, and looked at the eyes of the Legionnaires Ruman who wanted to devour them alive.

The archbishops couldn't help but feel empty-hearted, and secretly muttered: What's wrong with these guys? Do they all have that kind of habit, I have long heard that there are no women in the army all year round, and every sow is a cicada. Many people have an abnormal orientation in one way......

God the Father estimates, this is terrible~!

However, there were really two archbishops who were not afraid at all, and even defiantly threw a wink at a few of the more handsome legion commanders.

As a result, the poor fellows were frightened into a cold sweat, and hurriedly turned their heads away, not daring to look again.

Looking at their respective calculating expressions, Lorraine smiled and said secretly in his heart: This is what I want.

Who is on the red side and who is on the blue side is not yet arranged by the people of the command.

When the time comes, let the Ruman Legion go one by one, and the legions of the Holy See will directly destroy the soft hearts of these archbishops, so that they will lose without any temper, and leave an indelible shadow in the hearts of these archbishops, and they will automatically throw down their command posts, crying and shouting back for comfort.

No matter what world it is in, this guild point is the distribution method that the guild system has developed to the extreme.

As long as the president doesn't mess around, he doesn't mess around. With this perfect system, even the largest teams can be easily managed. No matter how complicated the copy is, with a wave of your hand, it will easily explode.

In such a powerful incentive system, both officers and soldiers will naturally do their best to maximize their own interests. And in this fierce competition, those excellent troops will naturally stand out.

Lorraine smiled slightly, pointed to the map, and continued: "In order to reach the level of actual combat, the third stage simulates various unexpected situations.

We will issue a possible contingency to each clan and examine your respective level of response.

The exercise is expected to last a month and a half, and after the exercise, we will officially wave our troops south to take the rebel leaders Amor Haddou. ”

The last trick is to add food, and if the table xiàn is prominent, try it again, and if you want them to get out, you are adding some ingredients to them. In a word, they want to toss and die.

But then again, if they can really resist the exercise, it means that these people are already fully qualified soldiers. Jue Ran naturally raised his hands and warmly welcomed these people.

Grand Duke Julius stood up at this time and said in a loud voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, I will appoint the commander of the regiment who is the most named in the exercise, and I will appoint him as the vanguard.

I'm here to see your watch~!" After speaking, he waved his hand heavily and said, "The meeting is dismissed~!" The officers "boomed, all stood up, raised their right hands high, and at the same time, the bright riding boots stomped heavily on the floor, and shouted angrily: "Long live the light~!" xx, x, x

Subsequently, in addition to leaving reserves behind and vigorously coping with possible unexpected situations, a major military exercise involving all peacekeeping forces officially began.

The purpose of this exercise is also very clear, that is, to toss them and toss them hard.

This is the only way to expose the problems that have been covered up in the peacekeeping force.

The various regiments, in accordance with the orders they received, began a long march.

For the regular army of the Ruman Empire and the people of the Maple Leaf Danlin, this is not a difficult task.

The Emperor's ** Regiment is accustomed to long-distance marches, and the people of Maple Leaf Danlin follow the policy of elite soldiers, all of them are mages and priests, equipped with enough horses and vehicles, and the journey is leisurely like camping.

The papal dogs are bitter.

Lorraine's orders were not harsh, and on average, it took only eighty miles a day to reach the location within the scheduled time.

For the regular army, this is just a normal marching speed, but for the Holy See army......

On the first day, it is good to say that some legions, encouraged and urged by the archbishops, even marched 120 miles a day.

When these archbishops were triumphant, they wanted to give the Ruman Legion a powerful look.

The next day, the Holy See's legions were generally in trouble, and many of the Templars were unable to walk because of abrasions on their feet.

The archbishops scratched their heads in impatience, and finally, after a brief treatment, urged his men to go on their way again.

Lorraine received information the next day that most of the legions had nevertheless completed their booked mileage.

But on the third day a large number of delays began to appear in the legions of the Holy See.

Many legions had to postpone their departure because the knights could no longer walk.

To make matters worse, several legions of the Holy See began to find out that something was wrong with their supplies.

They couldn't find a suitable source of drinking water in the camp, their men didn't know how to make a fire to cook, the logistics and materials were so chaotic that it was time to eat, and the cooks on duty couldn't find food there.

Two days ago they were able to find the reels in the crowd, but now the guys didn't know where they had got.

In short, they are getting slower and slower for all sorts of unexpected reasons.

Some archbishops had to spend an entire day searching for the stragglers and putting them back together.

And some archbishops, they don't even know how many people have been left behind and where these people are there, they don't even know where they are.

Lorraine couldn't laugh or cry at the command and a group of staff officers.

Fortunately, there was this exercise, otherwise these amateur archbishops would have gone to war, and they would have driven their troops directly to the capital of Haddou.

Lorraine hated so much that he could only scold in the headquarters: Don't these idiots know how to read maps?

The people of Xilìa and the Holy See seemed very shameless, after all, these people who were embarrassed were their own younger brothers, and their subordinates were so unprofessional, and they were the bosses with no shame.

On the fourth day, it rained.

Ram, Bishop Sandos, looked at the lightning shining overhead, emitting blinding light, and wanted to cry without tears.

It was still sunny just now, and Archbishop Sandos was blowing a cool breeze from the direction of the ocean, looking at the vast fields of Almohad.

Behind him was the entire legion striding by, and Bishop Sandos suddenly pointed out the country in his heart, and waved the pride of Fang Quan, and brewed a beautiful sonnet in his heart.

Even after thinking of the name, he called it "The Good Boy in the Rong Ma Army" and sent it to his favorite baroness.

But before Bishop Sandos could think of his feet, a strong wind blew, followed by a gray cloud, and the sky was as dark as if it were evening.

After a "boom" thunder, a large raindrop of soybeans fell from the sky.

At first, it was still sparse on the ground, but in a blink of an eye, the rain was as heavy as a flutter, and a dozen steps away was a white expanse of water.

There was still a strong wind in the rain, whirring and blowing, and the rain that hit the body seemed to drown people.

Ram, Archbishop Sandos was a chicken in two minutes, his long beautiful hair sticking to his head like kelp fished ashore.

The soldiers searched for shelter from the rain, only to find that in such a wilderness, there was no place for them to take shelter from the rain.

The ground soon became as muddy as the yellow soup.

His horse was frightened during the thunderstorm and almost threw the archbishop down, so that the archbishop had no choice but to dismount and walk.

Santos wore a pair of delicate lambskin boots on his feet, which had been given to him by another girlfriend before he left for the campaign.

However, this meeting has been thoroughly watered with muddy water, and every time you step on it, you will sink into the thin mud, and then you can pull it out of the muddy water with your hands.

Archbishop Sandos took a difficult step, his feet slipped, and the whole person fell into the mud and lay on his stomach in the muddy water.

The muddy water with a strange smell even poured into Bishop Ya's mouth, and Archbishop Sandos almost vomited in disgust.

A loyal retinue next to him pulled the archbishop out of the mud.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the temperature was dropping rapidly, and within a few minutes, the drenched archbishop's cold lips turned blue, his teeth chattered, and his whole body shrank into a ball.

Someone next to him tried to set up a tent in the rain, but several attempts in the strong wind failed, and the whole regiment was thrown into disarray, and the soldiers threw down their horses, planted their weights, and ran around in the rain in the unknown direction, looking for possible shelter from the rain.

Many more are at a loss as to what to do, and they are not trained to deal with the situation in front of them.

They can only instinctively huddle together, with their backs to the direction of the wind and rain, and rely on each other's body temperature to resist the cold.

At the same time, in the headquarters of the peacekeeping force in Port Hafs, less than two hundred taels away from the bishop of Sandos, Lorraine stood in front of the window with a cup of hot tea brewed by Vera, watching the storm outside.

The window panes crackled with the raindrops, and the trees not far away swayed back and forth like rags in the wind, and looked like they could be uprooted at any moment.

Thinking about the dozens of legions on the march, Lorraine picked the corners of his mouth, smiled slightly, and said: "June is a child's face, and it will change when it is said, and this rain is too opportune." ”

Those guys in the Holy See must have had a hard time. ！！！
