Eddie struggled to load today's weapons supplies into the truck, said hello to the Gonza chief next to him, took a cigarette thrown by him, and happily went to the smoking area to relax.
He is a fisherman from a fishing village in Leximlin Province on the west coast of the Maxim Republic.
Under the leadership of President Kila, the lives of the people are getting better and better, especially for people in cities. However, their lives in remote villages are not much better than before, and they live in poverty every day.
The worst thing is that there are no noble lords now, and they don't know who to turn to for help when they are in trouble.
Fortunately, the governor of Leximulin Province has been very talkative recently. He is like a living Buddha to these remote fishing villages. As long as he can get benefits, the governor will help them solve their problems.
In the province of Leximlin, the governor is a man of noble status. He has helped many farmers and fishermen solve their employment problems, such as recommending them to work as laborers or soldiers at the Blue Star Joint Base overseas.
The welfare package at Blue Star Joint Base is very good. Not only does it provide money to workers and soldiers, it also provides an additional subsidy to soldiers.
Eddie lived a fulfilling life every day.
As an ordinary person, his lifestyle is actually not bad, not to mention that he is still a logistics soldier. In addition to the original military salary and subsidies, he also has many hidden benefits in the logistics department, such as those specially provided for them.
The logistics staff prepared some living supplies.
As an honorable citizen of the Maxim Republic, he also wants to have good luck.
He is still studying military knowledge and fighting skills at the Naval Academy. Of course, these are just some minor problems in the logistics department.
Although the Logistics Department has strict training requirements and weapons and equipment restrictions, as an ordinary soldier, you don't have too many requirements. And this kind of thing happens often in the Logistics Department. If you want to get benefits, you have to pay a price!
If you don't pay a price, what's the point?
Eddie is now a poor man and cannot afford to bribe the Gonza commander next to him. His name is Captain Winches. He never smiles during his duty, but he is very good at the things below, just like Eddie.
Such foreign mercenaries.
So Eddie wanted to arrange for his brother-in-law to work in the logistics department, but for a while he couldn't find a reason to ask Chief Winches for help.
After his wife died, he vowed to take good care of his wife's brother.
He believed that he failed to take good care of his wife and caused her to die early, and he felt very guilty.
Therefore, he works very seriously in the logistics department, and he is a very hard-working person.
Captain Winches has been very worried recently because the base's supply has become increasingly difficult.
The daily consumption of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians is very huge. The base's top commander, Major General Bethel, had already anticipated it and opened a factory in the base. On the one hand, it is self-sufficient, and on the other hand, it is sold to Maxim in several surrounding provinces.
people, thereby obtaining production raw materials and food supplies, and even opened a shipping company, allocating excess transport ships to the shipping company. The dock at the base has not produced warships for two years, and has all been converted into large fishing boats and transport ships.
"Captain Winches!"
A middle-aged man in tall and majestic clothes came behind Captain Winches.
"Ah! Major Rhea!"
Captain Winches saluted quickly.
Major Rhea said with a grimace: "Thank you for your hard work, I will continue to trouble you this month and develop another infantry company of soldiers."
Yes, it is to develop new soldiers, and the source of soldiers is these Maxim people. The reason why Captain Winches is allowed to develop is to select a group of people who are clean and easy to be brainwashed, soldiers who are willing to sacrifice their lives for the base.
Captain Winches was a little embarrassed and said: "One infantry company at a time, wouldn't it be too much?"
In the past, the most you could recruit each month was an infantry platoon. Now it's amazing, it's an infantry company.
Major Rhea said with a straight face: "Time is running out, and the Major General suspects that the Maxims are going to attack us."
Captain Winches nodded solemnly.
"I will submit the list as soon as possible."
This is the outcome of fighting alone.
Recently, he has followed dozens of people. Since there is going to be a war, there is no need to taboo anything. He can just trick them into joining the army. When the war really breaks out, he will let them take soldier potion and turn them into machines that can only fight.
Captain Winches immediately found Eddie, the first target on the list. This mercenary who was directly under his logistics department was conscientious and trained hard. Except for his age, he was impeccable in other aspects.
"Private Eddie!"
"arrive!"
Captain Winches said with a straight face: "The Logistics Department is going to expand production and is in urgent need of labor soldiers. Do you have any introductions?"
The labor soldiers of Blue Star United are workers and soldiers. They work four shifts every day, one shift for rest, one shift for factory work, one shift for military training, and the last shift for learning basic military knowledge.
This is a reserve force where labor soldiers are basically mercenaries, and Eddie was once a labor soldier.
Eddie's eyes lit up instantly and asked: "Sir, how many people do you need?"
Captain Winches said: "We need several hundred people, and the shipping company also needs to expand its recruitment. I estimate that this number is not enough. You can arrange as many as you want. I will issue the recruitment task to the mercenary group, and each time I recruit a labor soldier
, just reward one mark."
Eddie's eyes lit up and he agreed without thinking.
In the village, those who can come to work at Blue Star United are those with status. There are countless people trying to come here. It took a lot of effort when he brought his wife and brother here.
"Sir, I want to ask you a favor!"
Captain Winches's eyes flashed coldly, and he forced a smile and said: "Oh, whatever it is, as long as I can help, I will definitely help!"
Eddie said cautiously: "Thank you, sir. My wife's brother has been working in the labor force for almost a year and has passed the training. I would like to trouble you to transfer him to the logistics department."
"Oh, that's it! I'll go back and check your brother-in-law's training score. If he is really qualified, there will be no problem at all." Captain Winches asked very generously: "By the way, what is your brother-in-law's name?"
"
"Pete!"
Captain Winches frowned slightly. This name was really unpleasant, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. He still chose the name Eddie, and Eddie's original name was even more unpleasant.
"Okay, is there anything else?"
"No more, sir!"
Captain Winches nodded, turned and left, sarcastic in his heart.
Maxim's civilians are so stupid!
There is also a rush for this kind of job that involves death.
