Chapter 393 Relics
“It’s not a coincidence, someone did exert force behind his back, but it’s not me——” After someone quickly surrendered, Stark finally withdrew his terrifying gaze and said calmly Authentic, correcting Stark's nonsense.
It turns out it was not a coincidence, someone was really working behind the scenes. Jiang Hui sighed with emotion at this twists and turns of development. It turns out that there are still so many twists and turns in this matter.
But think about it, she actually saw it with her own eyes. The Hillman family must be one of them. According to the other party, their family invested a lot after entering the school, probably to improve the learning environment for their young master.
The relationship between resources and capital is inseparable. If someone injects capital, resources will naturally come in continuously. So they feel that there are a lot of changes in the school this year, and it is not strange. I just don't know if the Hillman family has used resources from the military, or if someone else is trying hard... If it's about resources from the military, Jiang Hui thinks of another person.
She wondered if there was a possibility that Zhou Xiuwen's family also contributed a little bit. After all, Zhou Yuanjing, the former head of the military and now a big figure in the military, sent his son to go to school here. When the superiors knew about it, they naturally had to take more care of him. This is normal.
Jiang Hui was thinking silently here, with no intention of speaking out. Unexpectedly, the two adults were also paying attention to the situation on her side, so naturally they saw a flash of understanding on her face.
Especially when Stark answered that sentence just now, he glanced towards Jiang Hui intentionally or unintentionally, and this glance was caught by Nie Erqi.
This means...could it be related to Jiang Hui?
Stark did not pay attention to Nie Erqi's curiosity. He directly broke Jiang Hui's thoughts: "Three months ago, Lieutenant General Metz of the Third Army was successfully promoted to general and transferred to the 100th Army. The deputy commander of the 72nd Legion, his eldest son Colonel Jin, and the straight-up lieutenant you rescued.”
This topic jumped too quickly, and it seemed to be pulled away all of a sudden. The information Jiang Hui received was limited, and he couldn't understand the connection between what the other party said and the previous topic.
But Nie Erqi is not. He was in the army, and even as a confidant under the command of the Eighth Army general, he received no less information than Stark, or even more, so he naturally understood what Stark wanted to express.
The promotion of Lieutenant General Metz and his family mentioned by the other party is also the most talked about event in their military recently.
The Metz family is a big family that has been in decline in recent years. Lieutenant General Metz's great-grandfather and father were both commanders of the 172nd Regiment. The establishment of this team is also inseparable from the Metz family. Although it is not one of the nineteen elite armies directly under the empire, it is still a strong legion regardless of size.
However, due to a chaotic war, Lieutenant General Metz's father left. Lieutenant General Metz did not grow up to the position of taking over the army commander. Not long after, the army directly changed hands and used the less glorious Lieutenant General Metz was driven away by various means, and the Metz family gradually withdrew from its position at the top of the pyramid.
However, their family has been in the military for generations. Although they are not from a noble family, they are still quite famous and powerful in the military. After several years of management, Lieutenant General Metz himself was considered capable. They gradually came up and achieved a certain status in the Third Army, and the family's status gradually stabilized.
However, their development threatens some of the families belonging to the Third Legion. Because the competition for resources arouses public anger, conflicts often occur. Brad Metz was excluded from the Legion's training candidate list because of family strife. Then, in order not to be someone else's weakness in attacking his father, but also to be proud of himself, he ran away from the army and was demoted to the bottom.
Later he was rescued by Jiang Hui and Hillman. After completing the treatment, he returned to the Third Army. Although he took some detours, his destiny was finally on the right track. Not long ago, Lieutenant General Mace accidentally obtained an important piece of information and commanded his team to rescue several fronts and also saved the life of a certain big shot.
In recognition of his meritorious service, the military department promoted him to the rank of general. At his request, he was transferred to the 172nd Army Corps, served as deputy commander and granted associate authority. The regular commander of the legion was the one who was ungrateful and used extremely vicious means to force Lieutenant General Metz away. He was also the confidant that Metz's father had entrusted and reused. He was currently in a bad situation within the legion due to a crisis of trust.
The return of the Mace family to the 172nd Legion was a clear announcement to inform those who had used despicable means that they were back. This is also the repayment given by the big shot to the Metz family, giving them a chance. Whether they can succeed depends on their own abilities.
But for the Mays family, this is also the most desired thing. The wish that their family had been longing for for many years was achieved in this way after many years. It has to be said that it is unpredictable.
In short, in the eyes of the outside world, the Mays family has been promoted. Although they are temporarily separated from the Third Army Corps, which is directly connected to the military, they are originally an external force and have been marginalized within the Third Army Corps. They have managed to gain a foothold by relying on their own abilities.
But the 172nd Legion is their base camp. Even though they were driven out in that way, there are still many people in the legion who support them. Now that Metz is the deputy commander of the army, it is not impossible that he will return to his position one day. There is always hope.
In addition, the position of General Mace is real. The superiors have also allocated a corresponding amount of recruits and training bases to him, and the resources and other resources are sufficient. As a result, the Metz family has grown from a declining family to an upstart in the military, and many forces are secretly trying to win over them.
The Eighth Legion didn't want to win over them. After all, the 172nd Legion and the area under their jurisdiction had never had any contact with them.
On the contrary, the Mace clan showed their kindness. Their reason was also very simple and crude, because Jiang Hui, Hillman, and Lieutenant Colonel Hank, who was at the school at the time, also mobilized the power of the Eighth Army to rescue Brad. Not only did they invest in the Beskar Intermediate Academy, but they later rushed to the front line several times to relieve the Eighth Army's predicament, showing their sincerity.
As a result, the Eighth Army increased its resource allocation to Beskar Intermediate Academy.
This can be regarded as a chain effect caused by Jiang Hui and Hillman at the beginning. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is related to them. However, it is hard to say how much role they played in it. After all, things like diplomacy between the two forces are not so simple and pure.
Nie Erqi was about to say something when his expression suddenly changed and he quickly pulled a switch somewhere on the control panel. The entire spacecraft shook violently, and several people inside were also affected and staggered around.
Jiang Hui's lower body was the weakest, and she was about to fall to the side if she couldn't hold her head up. Fortunately, Stark grabbed her. However, the things next to it failed to hold it up, and the wooden box placed on the observation platform instantly slid down and hit Jiang Hui's direction.
