The old man from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, whom he had met once, stood alone on the ground and read out the edict. His fat, white and smiling face seemed to be wearing a thick mask at this moment, a solemn mask.
Not far in front of him, there were thousands of imperial soldiers. They were arranged in three large and uniform square formations. Whether they were shiny new armor or horses with dragon-like horses under their crotches,
Even the craziest dreamers cannot connect them, as majestic as a mountain, with the officers and soldiers of the 3rd Army who had just survived the disaster.
Due to mission reasons, Wu Jie, who was only level 60, also sat upright on a dragon-like war horse. His whole body was covered in jet black and shiny bronze fine scale armor, only a pair of sharp eyes were exposed. The warrior's rank showed his military rank.
On the helmet is a majestic and ferocious wolf head. The entire body is made of a rare white magic crystal. A pair of wolf eyes are inlaid with absolutely priceless black pearls. Behind him are eight people of different shapes but toughness lined up in a row.
The stalwart generals. Lei Huo, Ouyang Long, Hua Rong, Chen Kun, Huang He, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, and Yan Nantian were all wearing spotless and straight imperial military uniforms, solemnly guarding him. The one who formed a square battle formation behind them was the third
The remaining officers and soldiers of about one division of the 5th Army. Although they once belonged to different numbers, the bloody baptism of war has firmly grasped this group of soldiers belonging to different teams into one fist.
"Actually, they were afraid of being abandoned as stragglers. Lei Huo is the best example. So they spontaneously joined me. The reason was because after ten days and ten nights of battle, I became the surviving top commander of the 5th Army.
All the other high-ranking generals were either killed or disabled, or became vegetative. You can't help but join me if you don't want to. After all, we are a family, and it's better than joining other divisions to try to live under someone else's roof." Of course, Wu Jie only dared to say these words in front of others.
I thought about it in my heart and would never make it public.
That's how people are. When faced with danger, those who stand up and lead everyone to a bright future can become leaders; even if they can't get there, they can carry everyone's destiny on their shoulders and have the courage to bear it.
He can still gain the incomparable respect of everyone. Fate once again pushed him to another stage of life in a dramatic and cruel way. Whether it is an opportunity or a crisis, Wu Jie must bear it calmly. Because fate has never compromised with him, he
Wu Jie will not choose to compromise, whether it is yesterday, today, or tomorrow...
"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: The barbarians of the Western Qin Dynasty invaded our imperial power for no reason. Fortunately, the officers and soldiers of the 3rd Army stationed at the Broken Dream Fortress worked together to resist the enemy. In the end, they were defeated by a small number of enemies and defeated the stubborn enemy. Their loyalty can be demonstrated. I have a great heart.
To express my condolences, I would like to express my special order to commend all the officers and men of the 3rd Group Army and to reward them based on their merits. Specific affairs will be handled by Liu Aiqing of the Ministry of Internal Affairs at the Fortress of Broken Dreams. I appreciate this!"
After the old man recited the imperial edict, the whole place was extremely quiet, and only the sound of the "wispy" scrolling of the imperial edict could be heard. This imperial edict was not so much a commendation order as it was a tribute to Liu, the top official of the Ministry of Internal Affairs stationed in the Sun-Destroying Fortress.
The old man's letter of appointment. Everyone looked at Liu Laoguan's hand eagerly. Finally, he lived up to expectations and took out another imperial edict and read it out. It turned out that due to the time lag, he received an imperial edict first and waited for the statistics report to be completed.
After the list of soldiers killed in battle and the list of meritorious service, he received another imperial edict two days later, which was the letter of appointment. Because of this, Wu Jie just happened to catch up.
I don’t know whether the old man is deliberately trying to appetize everyone, or whether he respects His Majesty the Emperor infinitely. No matter from which perspective, Marshal Wei Kehuai has no choice but to wait patiently for him to finish. Because at this moment, the old man represents greatness.
Your Majesty, the wise and correct Emperor.
"On June 18, 907 in the Imperial Calendar, the Western Qin Empire launched a massive invasion rarely seen in fifty years. The fourth prince Qin Nan and the eighth prince Qin Ying of the Western Qin Dynasty led a hundred divisions to fiercely invade the Sun-Destroying Fortress in the western frontier of our country.
.After ten days and ten nights of arduous and fierce fighting, under the protection of all the soldiers of my incomparable 3rd Group Army stationed in the fortress with their blood and lives, the fortress remained intact. Here I sincerely thank those officers and soldiers who fought bravely. You are the empire.
The pride of the Empire is the solid foundation for the empire to never fall and prosper. I also want to thank the soldiers of the 1st Group Army who fought thousands of miles regardless of fatigue. You have worked hard... For the 3rd Group Army, which was seriously short of strength due to the battle, I decided to award it to you.
With the glorious title of the main force group army, all officers and soldiers, regardless of their position, official rank, or title, will be upgraded by one level to form a new and brave fighting group."
…
Liu Laoguan then made a series of old-fashioned appointments. Judging from this appointment, everyone who participated in the defense of the Sun-Destroying Fortress received rewards. Of course, these were all the officers and soldiers of the Sun-Destroying Fortress.
What you deserve after all the blood and sweat.
"Finally, I hope that you will always remember to serve the country with loyalty and continue to contribute to the peace and stability of the empire and the people's living and working in peace and contentment. I appreciate this!" After the edict was announced, the entire cemetery rang with thundering cheers.
"Nantian! Nantian! Nantian!" According to the Chu Empire's practice, what the soldiers shouted was not the title of His Majesty the Emperor, but the name of the Great God Nantian who symbolized the patron saint of the Chu royal family. His Majesty the Emperor specially approved the recruitment of new soldiers for this purpose.
, and also allocated huge military expenditures and bonuses as rewards for defending the city for many days and as condolence payments for the sacrificed soldiers. This approach was undoubtedly unanimously welcomed by the majority of officers and soldiers.
According to the records of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which has always been famous for its seriousness and seriousness in the empire, the officers and soldiers of the 3rd Group Army, from commander to private, have been promoted on average by one rank, and the 3rd Group Army has been exceptionally promoted to
The main group army, this is even more unexpected than most people. Although the difference is only two words, the treatment is completely different. At least the salary, equipment, and benefits have all been improved by a whole level.
After this battle, General Shen Huai became the commander of the main group army and enjoyed the title of marshal and earl. If he has new special merits, he can formally aspire to become a duke. All officers under his command have been promoted to one rank. Since most senior officers have already
Dying together with the enemy has provided countless young faces with opportunities to display their talents. After all, in the battle that just ended, the hearts of both the officers and the soldiers were so close for the first time. The most critical thing is of course the empire's iron military laws.
The first filling principle: "First consider whether there are suitable candidates for the officers in the department."
Marshal Shen Huai couldn't help but burst into tears after receiving the two imperial edicts handed over by the old man. Who said soldiers are born to be hard-hearted and cold-blooded animals? They just don't show it easily. Seeing that the troops he single-handedly led were in shambles,
Seeing the old comrades who used to talk and laugh, and the old subordinates leaving him one after another, Shen Huai finally showed his true colors as a hard-blooded soldier, and after cleaning up his feelings, he was ready to clean up the mess. He didn't want to be read by the little people in the military department and say something about him.
His 3rd Army actually existed in name only, and like many of his old friend's units, his designation was removed and he regretted it for the rest of his life. The army was everything to his life, and he had to die on the battlefield. Shen Huai seemed to be saying to himself viciously.
He said, "No one can take my 3rd Army away from me. I have to quickly replenish my strength."
Next, Marshal Wei Kehuai of the 1st Group Army who came to the rescue delivered a congratulatory speech. The specific content was unoriginal, smelly and long. Wu Jie did not listen to a word. On the contrary, he felt that there was nothing strange about Wei Kehuai.
An ordinary, nagging, bad old man. If he hadn't been wearing a straight military uniform with the rank of marshal, no one would have raised objections if he was said to be a concierge. But it just happened that he was Wei Kehuai, the "Tiger of Hundreds of Wars".
The supreme commander of the Northern Military Region, one of the top ten marshals of the Chu Empire. He is truly beyond words, and the sea cannot be measured. Legend has it that he is also one of the few high-level paladins in the empire.
After finally listening to his congratulations, the newly appointed Marshal Shen Huai began a new round of "fatigue bombing"... When all the big shots finished speaking and announced that the teams would return to the camp and move freely after disbanding,
Wu Jie seemed to be more tired than killing a small team of Behemoth warriors. He secretly swore in his heart, "One day, if I become the marshal of this troublesome man, I will give priority to reforming the old and useless habits." It was just a moment of anger at that time. How could I expect it?
Not long after, my heart's wish came true. There is nothing more wonderful than this.
Finally, after all the official tricks were gone through, what was nominally a funeral but was actually an awards ceremony came to an end.
After the crowd dispersed, Liu Laoguan, surrounded by senior officials of the Sun-Destroying Fortress, came to Wu Jie and said, "Tianya, in view of the outstanding performance of you and your team in the task of 'fortress defense', in addition to the extraordinary promotion and appointment of you just now,
In addition to being the commander of the fifth army of the main third group army, His Majesty also specially rewards each member of your team with level 2 and a reputation of 5000. Each player will also receive a piece of professional equipment as a reward."...
"..." All the Brotherhood players present were stunned. They all knew that the rewards for this mission were very generous, but they did not expect that the rewards would be so generous.
OK, for Wu Jie and the brotherhood players, this reward is quite impressive. Not only is it difficult to increase the level of Chaos World, but it is even harder to gain reputation. There are almost no other ways except to fight BOSS and do more advanced tasks.
It can be obtained. Not to mention the equipment, even Wu Jie has never fully equipped himself. (The equipment in Chaos World includes a hat, shoulder pads, clothes, leggings, necklace, cloak, wrist guards, shoes, a pair of rings, weapons, etc. 11
