Chapter 601 The red line that cannot be touched
“What are these Wesen people doing?!”
The local businessmen were very depressed. The officers of the Osmaga Empire who came with them wanted to After three days and three nights of partying and drinking to celebrate the end of the sea journey, the Wesson people kept the gate of the military camp tightly closed.
A group of bosses gathered in a tavern, drinking wine and discussing this matter.
Everyone knows that the Principality of Wesson has dug a canal flowing with milk and honey and has countless wealth. For this, it has already prepared the best wine and women to make a lot of money.
However, several days have passed and no one in the military camp has come out.
A boss suddenly trembled and said cautiously: "Is that rumor true?"
After he finished speaking, the whole pub seemed to have pressed the mute button.
The legend that the Wesen Army is an army composed of devils naturally spread here, but the locals just regarded it as a boast to scare children and did not take it seriously.
But now Wesson's army doesn't eat, drink and have fun like other armies. Are they really not humans but devils?
A group of people looked at each other.
At the same time, everyone in the Weisen Army’s military camp was busy.
The 3rd Division of the Wesson Army, the 3rd Cavalry Regiment, the 2nd Mage Regiment and the Air Force Experimental Brigade came to the Kingdom of Tarago in the name of the "Knights of Saint Elizabeth of the Germain Brothers" and will soon go to the western defense line to help defend against the heretics.
Internally, this unit is designated as the "Western Front Corps", with Eugene as the commander-in-chief.
There is a lot of pressure on Eugene now.
In the military, he has never independently commanded the Wesson Army to achieve a victory on the spot. Without the support of military merit, there are many people who are unconvinced.
What's even more terrible is that politically, the Kingdom of Gaul has participated in the civil war of the Kingdom of Tarago. The commander-in-chief of the Gallic army is Prince Moritz, Eugene's father.
Although there are many things happening between the children of big families who are their own masters, it does not prevent some rumors from emerging.
Eugene racked his brains in order to command the army well.
You can ignore political rumors, as long as Frederick trusts them, everything else is false.
We have to work hard on military matters.
After the troops were in place, the military camps were all sealed and the entire army took inventory of supplies.
The whole army has been transported by sea for a month. Although there are no sunken ships, the fleet is not owned by the family, so they are always worried.
The Weisen Army has an internal classification system for military supplies. Weapons, ammunition, equipment, parts, military uniforms, etc. are the highest first-class products and are strictly prohibited from being exported.
Tents, medicines, daily necessities, etc. are second-class items and are prohibited from being exported in principle. They can be used as diplomatic gifts with the consent of division-level officers.
Food is a third-grade product, and the grassroots companies distribute it according to the quantity. The officers who resell their own portions do not care, and they bear the consequences if they are hungry.
The staff department formulated relevant countermeasures early in the morning, such as arranging special personnel to supervise the ship, bringing more food and alcohol as gifts, and establishing good relationships with the crew.
But there is still inevitably a shortage of supplies.
The first-class items were strictly guarded. Only more than thirty boxes of firearms were pried open and a few were taken from each box. The same was true for bullets. The loss was not big.
Some cans and other food were also stolen. Some people put the empty cans back after eating. The loss was expected.
The biggest loss is something that leaves people speechless.
“The most stolen items are yellow washbasins.”
Erich, the 3rd Division and Chief of Staff of the Western Front Corps, was also a little helpless when reading the report at the meeting.
He continued: "The second is underwear. There are more than a dozen boxes with only the top few pieces left, and the bottoms are all rags." The yellow washbasin issued by Wei Senjun is a strong plastic basin, and the underwear They are pure cotton boxer briefs and T-shirts. They are both best-sellers on the market, so it is not surprising that they are given special attention.
Eugene said: "Report the losses truthfully."
He couldn't control these things, so Frederick had to step forward and take care of what he could manage first.
He picked up the thermos cup and took a sip of tea and then said to the commanders of the 31st Regiment, 32nd Regiment, 33rd Regiment, 3rd Cavalry Regiment, 2nd Mage Regiment, Air Force Experimental Group, and the two swordsmen Dennis and Dixon. : "Next, the whole army will assemble, maintain and test all weapons and equipment, so as not to cause problems behind the front line."
"Take a few days of rest after the test."
"The rest is over We will then walk along a three-hundred-kilometer mountain road to St. George’s Fortress to take charge of the defense there.”
"The defense zone of the Osmaga Empire is in the city of Setobriga, more than thirty kilometers away in the south."
"These two places are the access towers of the Kingdom of Madeira, the enemy we are about to face in the west. The important pass of the Kingdom of Largo, Grand Duke Suarez has deployed heavy troops here."
"We are about to face a different enemy than before. You have all read the "Enemy Situation Analysis" and will read it again when you have time. Read it several times.”
“The commander said that there are people from the relevant departments on the opposite side, and they will give the latest enemy situation report there after arriving at the St. George Fortress.”
After Eugene finished talking about the military arrangements, He took another sip of tea and continued: "Next, I will talk about things with the locals."
"Military law has two red lines in this regard, one is the prohibition of robbery, and the other is the prohibition of adultery."
"These two military laws are not only useful in the Principality of Wesson, but also useful here."
< br> "I won't talk about robbery. Compared with the Principality of Wesson, this place is a remote country. The most valuable thing is the tractor. The glassware, beautiful clothes, magic lamps, and air conditioners are all made by the Principality of Wesson. If you have the ability, Grab it and sell it back.”
After he finished speaking, the conference room was filled with laughter.
Nowadays, the industrial products of the Principality of Wesson are sold everywhere, and maybe some of them are produced in factories invested by officers like them.
Eugene continued: "You can find a lover here, and you can report those you want to take back. This matter follows the old rules of Hanma City, so I won't say more."
"In short, there are two points, don't Be strong and don't talk about things in the army. "
In this era, soldiers and bandits are inseparable, especially the troops from other places. It is normal for locusts to cross the border.
Frederick has been eliminating banditry in the army by improving treatment and enhancing the sense of honor.
If the army acts like bandits, it will gradually transform into warlords, and phenomena such as gangsterism and disobedience of orders will appear, gradually losing control.
Therefore, there are several red lines in military law. If you touch them, you will die, and there is no mercy.
Eugene doesn't have much prestige in the army, so he doesn't mind borrowing the heads of some people who have stepped on the red line.
Orders were issued at all levels and soon reached the hands of the soldiers.
Krom organized the whole class to read out the order, and then called the names of Zickel and two other recruits who joined the army last year and said: "You young people should pay attention, take care of your belts, and choose whoever you like. Go and say something nice, don't use force."
Zikr said unconvinced: "Why don't you say Zobel?"
Crom smiled, patted Zobel next to him on the shoulder and said, "I want to see if he dares."
Zobel just smiled and said nothing, and Hannah followed the air force. The experimental team was here, but they didn't tell them in advance for confidentiality reasons. They didn't find out until they met at Port Ferdinand.
Chrom stopped teasing Zobel and continued: "Everyone should tighten a thread in their minds. If someone asks you about something in the army, don't talk stupidly, report it immediately. ”
