A cocktail party is being held in the lobby of the Crown Hotel in Wrights.

The crystal lamp shines on the exquisite goblet, the golden champagne is blazing with bubbles, and the ice cubes in the glassware are shiny. On the long dining table covered with white floral cloth, all kinds of snacks and snacks are available.

The well-dressed nobles gathered together in groups of three or three, and communicated in a low voice.

Since the eldest princess summoned local troops of the Principality, she has held a regular daily cocktail party to entertain local nobles who came to participate in the war and provided them with a place for communication.

"Virded Viscount Blunt, I finally saw you!"

"Barl Prad, you're finally here!"

In a corner of the cocktail hall, two middle-aged nobles hugged each other.

"I haven't seen each other for almost ten years, you still look so young." "Oh, I'm old, the child is growing up."

"When I saw you, I remembered the days when I worked together under the Count." "Yes, every day after work, we go to the bar to get drunk before we finish."

"Mrs. Xueli is okay?" "Is her health okay, but I have a little insomnia recently. You know, the war is about to start. She is very worried. What about her brother and sister, how is her health?" "I was wronged with me and I was wronged.

, The sunshine in the Northern Wilderness is too fierce, and you may not recognize it when you see it."

The two old colleagues reminisced about the past, and after a few glasses of champagne, the topic shifted to facing each other.

"Virded Viscount Blunt, I came this time to join the army of the eldest prince. I wonder if you can recommend it." Baron Prad said.

If local troops want to participate in the war, they must first join a certain army in the principality.

The eldest prince Gavin Maris has a noble status and is the first person under the Grand Duke of Sarold. He is also the first heir to the throne of the Duke of the Duke and the future king. Not only that, he also has four major military geniuses in the Red Clay Continent.

One of the Ricardo, who is strong and powerful, is expected to be the most popular.

"Oh, this is not easy to do..." Viscount Blunt looked puzzled, "The quota of the First Army is full, and I am also in the Second Army..."

Viscount Blunt's meaning is very clear. Even he himself cannot enter the First Army of the Great Prince, let alone the local troops in the marginal town of Baron Prade.

"Then, what about the Second Army?" Baron Prad asked hurriedly.

"The Second Army guards the front line of the Water Weasel, and the general who leads the army is Howard Martha, a cousin of the Marys family, and is considered the eldest princess. The possibility of fighting among the three armies is the least. If your purpose is the same as mine, it is just

If you want to get some military subsidies and wait for the opportunity, then I will recommend you to General Howard." Viscount Blunt paused and said, "But if you want to do something real and fight for military merits for the future, then I

We suggest you go to the Third Army.”

Baron Prad thought for a while and asked, "What's the situation in the Third Army? Who is the leading general?"

"The leader is Count George, who is mainly responsible for the Red Rock front line. Your views are relatively close, so there should be many common topics."

"That's good!" Baron Prad immediately looked delighted when he heard the old noble Earl George lead the army, and then sighed, "I had drunk wine with Earl George before. He is really an old gentleman with noble character.

.”

"If you think it's appropriate, I will recommend it to you now. I just drank a drink with the Chief of the Military Control Commission of Earl George, and it should be here now." "Then I'll have Viscount Lai." "Look at what you said,

We are all old friends, don’t be polite to me.”

Not long after, Viscount Blunt took Baron Prad and found Cao Dexi, the Chief of the Military Control Commission of the Third Army of the Red Dragon Principality.

Cao Dexi had a big belly and a fat face. When he looked at people, his eyes narrowed into a line, making him look a little arrogant and obscene.

"Sir Cao, my old friend, old colleague, Baron Prade," introduced Viscount Blunt.

"Hello, hello..." Cao Dexi changed into a smiling face.

"Sir Cao, I want to join the Third Army and serve Count George." Baron Prad stroked his chest with one hand and nodded.

"How many people have you brought?" Cao Dexi put away his smile and had a positive and serious attitude.

"One hundred and sixty-two combatants, fifty-four logistics personnel, sixteen mechas, comprehensive evaluation is a quasi-lord-level battle group." Baron Prad raised his head and said with some pride.

"There are a lot of people, at least it is an independent battalion, but..." Cao Dexi glanced at Viscount Blunt and said with some embarrassment, "There are many local troops coming to join, but the Third Army has a limited budget..."

"So, you guys talk first, I have a few friends to entertain." Viscount Blunt left tactfully, leaving the two people to communicate separately.

"Sir Cao, look..." Baron Prad sent two hundred gold coins when he was not paying attention.

If you don’t join the army, you have to be incorporated into the reserve army and wait for the recruitment. The reserve army’s subsidies are extremely low, only enough to eat, and they are very motivated. Some reserve army squatted while squatting, and all their fat grew, which greatly reduced their combat effectiveness.

When Cao Xide received the money, he looked around and showed a greasy smile, "Oh, sir, you are too polite."

"I will ask Chief Cao to take care of him in the future."

"Okay, come to me if you have any difficulties in the future." Cao Xide returned to his serious appearance, "I will report it tonight. When the count's approval is approved, I will arrange to go to the count's mansion to take an oath. When the oath is finished, you will

Say to me, I'll send you a military number."

"With the number, you can log in to the military headquarters' website to report. Soon the Earl's military police will join your troops. After they have finished checking, they will be able to issue military subsidies."

"Although it's a little troublesome, it's all necessary procedures." Cao Xide concluded.

"I'm sorry," Baron Prad nodded and saluted.

"The people in the military police are not as easy to talk to as me. Adults should be more responsible." Cao Xide reminded.

The role of the military police is to ensure that the orders of the army can be implemented and to supervise the war during wars.

"I understand, understand..."

On the morning of the third day, Baron Prade brought his two sons to Earl George's residence.

Count George is an old nobleman in the Principality of the Red Dragon. He has a tall house and luxurious decorations, and has a history of nearly two hundred years.

"Brother, when do you think we can live in this place?" Peter Prader couldn't help asking, looking at the sculptures, the exquisitely gardened vestibule garden, and the white mansion carved with reliefs on the exterior walls behind the fountain.

road.

"Kill a few counts on the battlefield and we can live there." Sean Prader said in a relaxed tone.

A moment later, under the jujube tree in the back garden, Count George was dressed in formal attire, standing next to him the pastor of the Church of Holy Light as a witness.

The state religion of the Longhong Principality is the Church of Holy Light, and they will be invited to attend every major ceremony.

The oath-taking man put his right hand on the Book of the Word and began to take the oath.

"I, John Prade, the baron of the Kingdom, mayor of the town of Prade, now solemnly swear that I will always be loyal to the royal family of Marys and volunteer to join the Third Army of the Principality of the Red Dragon led by Earl George.

I will perform my duties conscientiously, obey the command of the supreme commander of the army, and never retreat in front of the enemy until the end of my life..."

On the afternoon of the day when the oath was completed, Baron Prad received the troops number sent by Cao Dexi.

[The 79th Independent Battalion, Third Army of the Red Dragon Principality]

Baron Prad logged onto the website of the Red Dragon Principal Army with a black watch, found the page of the Third Army, and uploaded the personnel list and military information of the independent battalion.

Military subsidies are evaluated based on the number of personnel, individual strength, and the overall situation of military equipment. The more people, the stronger the strength and the more expensive the equipment, the more subsidies you get.

In short, it means how much strength you have to get as much money as you want.

[The information has been uploaded, please wait patiently for the military police to enter]

The day after the application, a team of six military police teams came to the camp of the Prade Town troops.

These military police were all personal soldiers of Earl George. The military uniforms were brand new and uniform. Compared with the country troops with old combat uniforms, the superiority and inferiority were immediately judged.

They looked arrogant and looked at ordinary soldiers with a feeling of condescending.

"The ninth team of the third squadron of the First Gendarmerie Brigade of the Third Army was ordered to enter the 79th Independent Battalion!"

After the military salute, the military police began to inspect personnel and equipment. They wore white gloves and held the registration book, sweeping around with keen eyes.

"You Valkyrie was produced in 2586. It's been thirty-one years. It's already considered a scrap product, right?" "The performance is still very good. If you don't believe me, I'll show you."

"I don't care whether you can drive it or not, I can only calculate it based on 70% new shoulder anti-cannons."

"This, this is not right, the fuel consumption is several times worse..."

"Then it's calculated by scrap, there's not a single one."

"Okay, okay, you are Jun Ye, you have the final say."

The captain of the mecha team did not dare to offend the military captain. While nodding, he secretly sent someone to tell the Baron's youngest son about the situation.

When Peter Prade found out, he ran over angrily and asked the captain of the military police to reason with him.

"Why do you calculate it based on shoulder-resistant cannons? This is Valkyrie, and the fuel consumption is three times that of shoulder-resistant cannons."

The commander of the military police frowned and raised his voice a little bit. "It's already great to be considered as half of your shoulder-resistant cannon. It's been thirty-one years, and it's time to be scrapped!!"

"Our Valkyrie is often inspected. I have changed the parts inside for countless times. Now it is no different from the new one. If you don't believe me, I will let you open it for you. If you find a problem, I will be alone.

Don't either." Peter argued. This Valkyrie was his father's favorite. He usually acted as a treasure, but he would personally study it if he had a little problem. No one knew the status of this mecha better than him.

"I said it's scrap, it's scrap. What's the matter? Can't you understand human words?" the commander of the military police cursed impatiently.

Peter suddenly became angry, "Why are you unreasonable!"

"Who do you like to reason with whom do you want to tell me, get out of here, don't block the way!" the military captain scolded.

"You are discriminating against our local forces." Peter shouted excitedly.

"Okay, you don't cooperate, right? Then let's go!" The military captain covered the registration book with force, "If you don't agree, you can go to the military headquarters to complain, we welcome you at any time." He threw down a sentence, turned around and left.

"Hey, no, no, Jun Ye, don't leave..." Sean saw his brother clash with the military police, hurried over and pulled the military police captain.

"Let go, don't pull it!" the military captain shouted.
