Fuller first made an opening remark of exhortation and encouragement, and after a pause, continued: "Now, in the presence of my lordship, I will formally appoint the officers of the Fifth Light Infantry Regiment of the Coastal Province, and those whose names are called will be listed. Everyone held their breath and pricked up their ears to listen, lest they would miss their own name.

Fuller looked at the somewhat nervous crowd, smiled slightly, and said loudly: "First Wing Captain: Harvey, Second Wing Captain: Gibbon, Third Wing Captain: George, Fourth Wing Captain: Mondstadt, Fifth Wing Captain: Kitt, Logistics Wing Leader: Kelly, out of line!" After the five named people shouted "yes", they trotted all the way to Fuller's side and gave a standard military salute before standing in line, their waists straight, and their faces could not hide their smiles.

Harvey, George and Gibbon are okay, the three of them performed very well during the training, maybe they smell the same, and after a few days of contact, they have become one with other soldiers and officers, and there is also a relationship with Wang Yong, it is not surprising that they can be the captain of the wing.

Mondstadt and Kidd were different, although they used to be captains and performed very well during training, they felt that it was already good for them to keep their position as captains, but they never expected that they would be promoted to captain of the Fuller regiment, and at the same time, they were surprised and surprised.

As for Kelly, he has no competitors in logistics management, and he is indeed very capable in this regard, and the logistics and material management are well organized, so it is not surprising that Kelly became the logistics chief.

In the envious eyes of all the soldiers, Harvey stood in front of Fuller like a javelin, with his chest up, his eyes looking straight ahead, although he had no armor, but the fortitude and firmness of his face made them completely change from ruffians to qualified soldiers.

Fuller jumped out of the carriage and came to the five people, and after his eyes swept over each of them one by one, he handed the five lists in his hand to Harvey and the others except Kelly and said, "Because our legion is not full." Therefore, after consulting with my lord, I decided to have seven brigades in each wing for the time being, and then fill up the establishment when there are additional soldiers. This is the list and position of your subordinate officers, I think it would be better for you to read it out, go ahead, gather your subordinate officers, and come and get your equipment. The five of them took the list and saluted, then trotted back to the headquarters and called the names according to the list.

For a while, the exclamations and congratulations in the phalanx of the entire legion came and went. Soldiers with expressions of confidence and surprise on their faces walked out of the original phalanx and followed their company commanders through the small phalanx.

Wang Yong looked at Harvey and the others with his hands behind his back, and then said to Kelly, who was still standing like a javelin: "What are you still doing standing stupidly? You are in charge of logistics, why don't you hurry up and take your subordinates down to change equipment? After a while, those guys will come back, and you won't have time." Kelly was overjoyed when he heard this, and after saluting Wang Yong and Fuller, he hurriedly ran to change his equipment.

Kelly was very excited, because normally, he only had about 300 people and dozens of broken cars, and he was in charge of logistics and supplies, and Kelly felt that he could be a captain at a good level. He didn't expect Wang Yong and Fuller to give him the position and rank of co-captain, so he was very grateful to Wang Yong and Fuller. Kelly knows very well that although the chances of logistics soldiers going to the battlefield are much smaller, it is not easy to get promoted. If there are no special merits, it will take at least five to ten years to accumulate if you want to be promoted from a group captain to a wing leader, and how can Kelly not be grateful for the fact that he was promoted to wing captain when he first came to this Fifth Light Infantry Regiment? This has saved him at least five years of struggle.

Twenty minutes later. All the newly appointed officers were assembled, and in front of Wang Yong and Fuller, they formed five small phalanxes in a unit, and all the officers' faces were filled with smiles of joy that could not be concealed.

This time the official resignation. Almost all of the original officers were there, some of them were promoted, and some of them kept their original positions, but the faces of these people were not dissatisfied, because they knew very well in their hearts that they were worth their catties, and Wang Yong and Fuller had already given them face by not demoting them to ordinary soldiers, so they did not have the slightest dissatisfaction in their hearts, but were still a little grateful.

As for the previous officers, only one person was still standing in the phalanx of soldiers, he closed his eyes and looked lost, this person was the former fourth wing captain Cumberland who was the first to stand up against Kirton.

When Fuller accepted the five co-captains, Cumberland didn't hear his name, and his heart sank at that time, not knowing what he had done wrong, and the corps commander would actually demote himself, but Cumberland, who knew that his physical fitness was not good, did not complain anything, but began to think about how to take his subordinate soldiers to make more achievements in the upcoming war, and then regain his position as co-captain with great merit, and also prove in front of everyone that he is not only a sycophant, but also no worse than others when he moves his real character。

However, after the thirty-five captains were named, Cumberland still did not hear his name, and by this time he was a little out of his breath, and asked Mondstadt and Kitt, the two captains with whom he had a good relationship, but they did not give him any clear answers.

Cumberland sighed secretly, feeling that the words of the nobles and superiors could not be trusted, remembering that the lord had told him that he would not treat him badly, but now, after Cumberland sighed, he secretly comforted himself and said: "The squadron leader is not bad, although there are not many people under him, but it is easier to manage." ”

By the time the Squadron Leader was over, Cumberland was in despair, and he didn't think that the Lord and Captain Fuller would make him a squad leader, as it would be an insult to him.

Sure enough, his name was not included in the squad leader's appointment, and Cumberland closed his eyes because he was already disheartened. Cumberland stood quietly in front of the phalanx of his subordinates with his eyes closed, the lonely figure looked so bleak and desolate, hearing the incomprehensible discussion behind him, Cumberland slowly opened his eyes, turned around, and silently went to the phalanx to find a place, like other soldiers to become a member of the phalanx, his face was disappointed, confused, confused and unwilling, looking at the front of the officer queue in the past of his subordinates, Cumberland's heart was very uncomfortable, I don't know what he did wrong.

Cumberland didn't notice, there were a few eyes that had been watching him from beginning to end, and the owner of those eyes saw that Cumberland didn't have a deep face in the city, nor did he have the anger of the city, although there was disappointment and unwillingness on his face, but he didn't lose his mind, Wang Yong nodded to Fuller with satisfaction.

Fuller was also pleased with Cumberland's performance, jumped into the carriage again and pointed to Cumberland in the phalanx and said, "Cumberland is out of line to accept the appointment." ”

The eyes of all the officers and soldiers were all on Cumberland, who was silently standing in the phalanx, and Cumberland himself raised his head in surprise and looked at Fuller with a blank expression, until the soldiers around him pushed him, and Cumberland came back to his senses and walked in front of Fuller at a loss.

Fuller smiled slightly and said loudly: "On behalf of the lord, I now announce that Cumberland MacDonald is appointed as the acting chief of staff of the Fifth Light Infantry Regiment, because this is an extraordinary period, so the probationary period is two months, and if there is no gross negligence at the end of the probationary period, Cumberland MacDonald will officially become the chief of staff of the Fifth Light Infantry Regiment." ”

Wang Yong stepped forward and hugged Cumberland, who was still stunned, and said with a smile: "I am very optimistic about you, I hope you will not disappoint me, I don't expect you to make much achievements, but at least you have to be worthy of your position." ”

The soldiers began to exchange words after hearing that Cumberland had been appointed chief of staff, and they had no idea what the chief of staff was doing.

Soldier A asked Soldier B next to him, "Hey, what does the chief of staff do?"

Soldier B shook his head and said, "I don't know, I've never heard of it before, but the one with the 'chief' must be an officer." ”

Soldier A pouted and said, "Then you still need to talk nonsense, I estimate that the position of this chief of staff must not be low, otherwise the commander of the corps will not be able to stay at the end before announcing it." ”

Soldier A nodded and said, "Well, that's certain, by the way, we'll ask him when Tie Dan comes back in a while to find out what that chief of staff does." ”

Soldier B glared at Soldier A and said, "You can't scream with iron eggs in the future, you are now the squadron leader, otherwise if you let those gendarmes hear it, your ass will suffer." ”

Soldier A quickly closed his mouth when he heard this, and secretly glanced at the gendarmes patrolling back and forth around the phalanx, with a look of fear, because these gendarmes are all strong and burly minotaurs, and the soldiers are afraid that they are not because of the combat power brought by the race and strong body, but because they are very strict with military discipline.

Getting back to business, seeing that Cumberland was still at a loss, Wang Yong asked Fuller, who came to his side: "This thing won't be a surprise and be too stupid, right?"

Fuller just smiled slightly, and thought to himself: "Can this be blamed on others? You have to get some kind of chief of staff position, who knows what it is for, and it is strange if you don't get it." ”

Cumberland gradually came back to his senses, and felt that the big fall was followed by the great joy, this feeling was too exciting, if it weren't for his good body and endurance, he might have hung up directly with an older guy. (To be continued......)
