"What's going on?" I asked a winged officer, "Where's Jack, why don't you follow my orders?"

I'm a little angry, because the most important thing in dealing with this kind of incident in the army is a quick word, otherwise more trouble will follow.

"Report to sir!" the winged officer replied, "Chief Jack is arguing with a priest!"

"Priest, I still have priests in my barracks?!" I was surprised: "Where are they?"

"Report sir, they're on the playground!"

I hurried to the playground and saw Jack and a white-clad priest arguing fiercely on the viewing platform in front of the playground.

The red-faced white-clothed priest waved his staff and spat on the viewing platform. Jack stood beside him with an angry expression, because he didn't know if he would get me in trouble for offending the priest, so he was putting up with it.

Thousands of slave soldiers stood around the viewing platform, all of them looking at this qiē with indifferent expressions. It's not surprising that there are veterans standing around the viewing platform, and they must have seen this kind of struggle for power many times, and they understand that it is best to keep silent at the moment.

I walked up to the stage and kicked the priest down.

"Alright, you go about your own business first. I said gently to Jack, "I'll leave it to me!"

"Yes, sir!" Jack replied loudly, turning to step down.

"You can't do that!they're all high-ranking officers!" The white-robed priest scrambled to his feet, "I know Your Excellency is a Blessed Knight!but you still don't have that right!They're all officers sent by His Highness, and I'm the clerk of the Ninth Legion sent by His Highness! You should know my remit!"

Listening to him speak, I understood why the white-clad priests had been taught at the seminary. I'm sure there's a course in seminary called "Threats and Provocations."

He told me very clearly in his words. He knows everything I am. But he was not afraid of me, and he would give me little shoes to wear in the days to come.

I looked at him, and he looked back at me without fear. If he is not completely eliminated, the power of the Ninth Legion will be divided, and from then on it will embark on the road of endless infighting.

"I know your rights, and my commands are inviolable! I laughed a few times, "It only took me a day and a night to get here from the military headquarters, and now I'll give you three days! You can find someone to stop me during these three days, as long as you think can stop me." You can find it, and then I'll do it for you!"

The white-clothed priest asked me excitedly, "Your Excellency promises not to kill them for these three days?"

"Believe it or not, but you'd better hurry, or maybe my patience will only last two and a half days. I turned around and walked off the viewing platform, I wouldn't say anything stupid like "swear in the name of a knight", I was a fool to take an oath, who knows what will happen tomorrow?

The white-clothed priest also understood the situation and rode to the military headquarters himself, not even a single guard.

I watched him get out of the camp and turned and told Jack, "Go to town and put up a notice saying that the Ninth Legion has changed its commander. The new commander is wise and martial, and knows right from wrong┅┅If there are residents who have been persecuted by the Ninth Legion. They can come to the camp of the Ninth Legion in two days, and if they can recognize those who persecuted them and provide evidence, I will give them a fair verdict!"

"But Boss, what is persecution?"

"It's as small as owing money for food, to killing people and setting fires. I said, "These are all persecutions." 」

"Yes, Boss!" Jack said with a smile, "Is this gathering evidence of the officers?"

"My Jack, why haven't you been enlightened?" I touched his head, "Of course, we have to collect the evidence of the officers' crimes, and of course we have to collect the evidence of the crimes of ordinary soldiers. 」

"Why, Boss?" Moya asked me, "What evidence will the slave soldiers have?"

"Those Templar officers are not fools, they will definitely pull some people among the slave soldiers to strengthen their position. I smiled and said, "Now we have to get rid of these officers, but we also have to uproot these slave soldiers who were close to them." In this way, our rights can be said to be absolute. 」

"Understood!" Moya replied to me.

"Study hard, my brothers, management is a very profound science. I said, "I'll give you a chance." Jack, you're in charge of this. Moya, you and Helt take the officers to pacify the general soldiers. If you don't understand something, just ask me, don't hold on. 」

I went into a large tent that had been rebuilt and asked for some of the bunjiàn from the legion.

First I had all the officers sent by His Highness locked up in different categories, and then I spent almost the whole second half of the night reading the various texts of the Ninth Legion, and by noon the next day, I had a clear understanding of the establishment of the Ninth Legion.

The Ninth Legion is so large that it can rank among the top five of all the legions of the Divine Alliance, except for a few elite main battle legions of the Empire, there are many people in our legion, with a total of more than 74,000 soldiers!

In addition to the management organization and logistics personnel, there are more than 71,000 front-line soldiers, all infantry. Because the previous officers didn't care about anything, the establishment and management of the regiment were very chaotic, and they had to start from scratch. However, the most important thing now is to stabilize the situation, after which it is possible to establish a sound command and management mechanism.

I first divided the 70,000-strong men into three wings, a total of 30 regiments. Each regiment had 2,500 men, and every ten regiments formed a wing.

I was in direct command of the 1st Wing, which had 10 regiments under its command. Among them were five guards regiments, a law enforcement regiment, a logistics regiment, an equipment regiment, a reconnaissance regiment and a training regiment. In addition, there are some miscellaneous formations under the corps headquarters, and these formations do not need to be independent for others to know, and the numbers of the regiments under the jurisdiction of the first wing are from the first regiment to the tenth regiment.

Helter was the commander of the 2nd Wing, which commanded 10 field regiments, numbered from the 11th to the 20th Regiment. Moya served as the commander of the 3rd Wing. The 3rd Wing also had ten field regiments. They were the 21st to 30th regiments.

The commander of each regiment is the best officer in the dark army. I hope that this combination will preserve their respective characteristics, because the senior officers I have given to them are familiar with the military rules, experienced, disciplined, and know how to deal with the military department, while the dark younger generation of officers are very energetic and courageous, and dare to think and do everything.

I abolished all the officers in the legion at all levels, and appointed the officers I brought with me to the rank of captain in charge of a hundred or so soldiers.

Rubbing my somewhat heavy head, I asked officers of the rank of chief and deputy regiment commander and above to come to the tent for dinner. I announced their appointment at the dinner table.

"I know you've never held such a high position before, but this is the first time I've been a legion commander. I tapped the edge of the table with the knife and fork in my hand, "There are always many firsts in this life, don't be afraid, let's do it together!"

"Yes, sir!" dozens of officers replied in unison, "Let's do it together!"

"One thing, I'll tell you first. I was pleased with their attitude: "You know me better, for for me, a soldier is a soldier, and I don't have any concept of a slave soldier in my head. And soldiers are just a profession, and they are no different from officers in personality. 」

"Yes. Sir!"

"You'll be in office after lunch," I nodded and smiled, "The training and management of the first qiē will be carried out according to the plan I told you earlier. Each captain should recommend a few excellent soldiers to the training regiment in a short period of time! Also, commanders of the second and third wings, don't come to me if you have something, go to your wing commander!"

"Hehe-" the officers laughed, and both wing leaders were a little embarrassed.

After dinner, I left Jack and Carlos behind.

"As for you Carlos, your public position is Chief of Staff, and you and Jack will be involved in the management of the First Wing. I said to Carlos, "I'm going to see a staff that is up and running by tonight at the latest!"

"Yes, sir!" said Carlos to me, "I'll arrange it!"

I didn't speak to Jack until Carlos was gone.

"Jack, do you know why I won't let you be the co-captain of the First Wing?"

"I don't know, boss. Jack shook his head, "Is it because I'm incapable?"

"You can't say that about yourself, Jack. Of all the brothers, you are the one who has been with me the longest, and you are also the most intelligent and studious, how can you not be capable?" I gently explained to Jack, "Everyone has different abilities, like your brother and Heilter, they are now more suitable for leading a wing of soldiers. Because they are all calm and mature, if it were you, would you be able to calmly face tens of thousands of people?"

Jack replied angrily, "Not yet┅┅"

"So, I can't let you manage a wing of tens of thousands of people to eat, drink, and Lazar. I smiled and said, "But ┅┅ you can manage everyone else in the Ninth Legion!"

"I don't understand. Jack looked at me and said, "Boss, what do you want to say?"

"Jack, have you noticed?" I said, "There's a law enforcement regiment in the First Wing, what do you think this regiment is for?"

"Law enforcement!"

"By the way, I want you to be the military judge of the Ninth Legion, and the Law Enforcement Corps is under your command. You'll have to work part-time as a herald if you need to. I said, "Stay with me every day, okay?"

"Yes!" Jack jumped up and hugged me, "Of course!"

"Wait a minute, wait a minute!" I solemnly told Jack, "I have assigned a few officers to you, you go and arrange it immediately, and the Judge Advocate General's Office will be established immediately!"

"No problem, sir! I'll go now. Jack let go of me, pulled his legs and ran out: "Give me two hours, and I'll be back soon!"

Looking at Jack's back, I let out a long breath and finally convinced him! In any way, I can't let Jack go to the front to risk it.

I stepped out of my tent and rode around the camp.

Orders rang out throughout the camp, and groups of soldiers were assembled to meet their new commander. For the first time in their lives, soldiers could sit around their commanders and listen to them, so much so that most of them could not get used to the treatment for a while.

The officers first introduced their names, ranks, and ethnicities to the soldiers, and then announced some temporary regulations. Most of them are "don't steal." Second, don't rob. 3. Don't peek at the big girl" and other "traditions" brought from the dark army. Then let the soldiers introduce themselves, and mix up familiar faces and almost something.

However, Jack is really good at handling small things, and the Judge Advocate General's Office and Law Enforcement Corps under his management are the first in the entire army to start working normally.

He asked the soldiers to erect a few large tents, and a sign was placed next to the tents, and the Judge Advocate General's Office of the Ninth Army was born. I was about to tell him that there was a typo on the sign, and he had already run away and was still in a mess of the logistics team.

As the first patron of the logistics regiment, Jack "borrowed" a few red cloths from the logistics regiment commander┅┅In less than an hour, all the officers and soldiers of the Judge Advocate Advocate Corps and the Law Enforcement Regiment had red strips of cloth tied around their arms. I want to laugh when I see it.

His personality is really like mine!

A second lieutenant officer of the Judge Advocate General's Office, with dozens of soldiers with strips of red cloth, passed me carrying tables and stools.

"Second Lieutenant. I stopped him, "Where are you going?"

"Report to the sir!" the lieutenant straightened up, "The military judge ordered me to go to the camp gate and take charge of receiving the residents who came from the town to complain!"

"And then?"

"Then┅┅I think we should take them to the military judge, right?" the second lieutenant thought for a moment, "Chief Jack didn't say anything!"

"Do you want to exhaust your military judge to death?" I said, "and everybody take him with you?"

"Second Lieutenant, you must remember that you are now both an officer and a judge. All the complaints and evidence of the residents should be recorded, and then the soldiers should be allowed to take the residents to identify them. I instructed him, "After you have caught someone, you have to investigate it, then you have to try it against the evidence, and then you have to report the whole matter and your handling to your superiors until the final verdict is made by the military judge." Do you understand?"

"Thank you, sir!" the lieutenant said loudly, "I see!"

"Got it, then get out!"

"Yes!"

After lunch. One after another, residents came from the town, and they stood at the main entrance of the camp in twos and threes, and at last, someone walked in, and the first business of the Judge Advocate General's Office came to the door.

A tavern owner came to the Judge Advocate General's officer's table nervously and said that he wanted to recover the money that several officers owed him for the drink.

"This was ten days ago. The tavern keeper said, "The officers went away after drinking, and no one mentioned the payment┅┅."

The officer taking the note looked up and asked, "Do you still recognize them?"

"Yes, Mr. Officer, I think I can recognize them. 」

"Alright, you and this soldier go find those guys!"

The tavern owner circled around the tent where the officers sent by His Highness were being held, and pointed out several officers who owed him money for the drink, and these unlucky people were immediately dragged out by the soldiers of the law enforcement regiment, and the people were handed over to the Judge Advocate General with the evidence.

When the evidence was sufficient, several of the Templar's officers confessed, but they were not too afraid, for in any way such a thing was not worth mentioning.

I was with their commander when the Judge Advocate Advocate came to ask the commander.

"Are there many people who come to complain?" I looked at the text in my hand and didn't raise my head.

The man from the Judge Advocate General said to me, "Yes, sir. More and more residents are coming. 」

"Herald," I pulled a piece of paper and drew on it with a pen, "go to the logistics regiment and tell them to make two hundred wooden shelves in the same way I have drawn, and make them before dark." 」

Then I said to the Judge Advocate General, "Go and search the luggage of those officers and pay the boss for the same price!

During the time when the logistics team was busy making shelves, I carefully explained to Jack some things that needed attention. It took him a few hours to instill in him a head full of legal concepts, from the dangers of various crimes to representative concrete cases.

"The most important point," I said, "military law has no price to talk about, it is a rule that binds all soldiers, and it is also a rule that maintains the combat effectiveness of our regiment, so to speak, this is a very deterrent weapon!"

"But Boss," Jack said, looking at me, "we don't have any code of military law, and we don't have a standard to draw upon. So what the hell are these people going to do today?"

"Actually, it's also simple, only divided into strict zhòng and not too strict zhòng," I said, "today these are trivial things, and they belong to the category of not strict zhòng." I think the real show should be tomorrow, when these residents help us spread the news today, those who really collect the blood debt will come. ”

"And what about these little things?"

"There are two options for dealing with small things, one is the military stick and the other is the leather whip," I thought about, "and we will use the leather whip." ”

"Why did you use a leather whip, boss, you were beaten with a military stick last time!"

"Don't be hippie!" I scareled Jack, "think about it, the whip is bloody on a person's body—it's a deterrent!"

"Then boss, why are you doing so many shelves?"

"I told you it was a deterrent!" I hit Jack on the head, "Think about it, hundreds of people were stripped naked and tied to racks and whipped, and they screamed and their bodies convulsed...... What a visual impact would it have on the onlookers? Any of them would have thought more about doing bad things in the future. ”

"Understood," Jack asked again, "what about Yan zhòng?"

"It's simpler, I'll teach you a sentence that is suitable for any occasion," I whispered, "As the military judge of the Ninth Legion, on behalf of the Coalition and the Legion, I will make the following judgment against you, because of your crimes, I will confiscate your criminal tools, deprive you of your rights, and carry you to hard labor or death!

"I don't understand something," Jack scratched his head, "what is a tool of crime?"

"For example, if a person steals something, and he goes in a friend's carriage, then the carriage is considered a tool of crime. ”

"Then we can confiscate it, and the carriage will be ours?"

"Of course," I said with a smile, "you're so smart." ”

"But there are people who don't have the tools to commit crimes," said Jack, "and if an officer kills someone with a punch, he doesn't use the tools!"

"That-" I thought for a moment before I said, "the hand he killed is a tool, you can confiscate it with a 'click' and then cut off his head!"

"Oh!

"Listen to me Jack," I said, as I approached Jack, "you're going to perform alone tonight, and you're going to establish yourself as a military judge in front of everybody, and I'm watching from the viewing platform, and you don't want to mess up." ”

"Don't worry, boss, no problem!"

Jack chuckled, his eyes shining. (To be continued......)
