Thors said generously that Lorraine could choose his position in the Guards Division.
Of course, it is said that it is a random choice, but in fact there are restrictions. Lorraine only has the rank of captain, and can only choose captain-level positions.
However, there is room for flexibility here. For example, the position of battalion commander is usually a major. If promoted from above, the rank of captain can also be achieved. There are many such examples no matter which country.
Lorraine also knew in her heart that she couldn't take advantage of it. It would offend others too much. It would make it difficult for her to move forward in the Imperial Guard, which would not be conducive to her work. What she was going to do was still a lot of trouble.
Lorraine glanced around and found that everyone was looking at him with eager and admiring eyes, but there was still a layer of worry on many people's faces.
Obviously, no matter how awesome Captain Lei Luo was in the past, no matter how he served the country, no matter how he went through life and death, climbed ice and snow, and endured all kinds of hardships, no matter how great his background was, and everyone respected him, but
If he comes to his own territory to make noises and point fingers, everyone will still be reluctant.
The Praetorian Guard is an elite force with a full complement of personnel. The position of this officer is a carrot and a hole, and it is fully arranged. If someone suddenly jumps in the queue, and you have to make room for him, no one will be willing to leave it.
One glance at Lorraine made it clear to them. This matter was the same in every country. Everyone didn't like outsiders competing for seats.
Lorraine couldn't help but smile indifferently, then looked at Thors and said: "Lord Commander, this kind of personnel arrangement is all decided by you. How can I have the nerve to pick and choose? This is too unruly and unruly, haha, hahahaha
…”
Thors laughed on the surface after hearing this, but secretly cursed in his heart: This slippery man just said it was against the rules, but he didn't say whether he was willing or not. It was clear that he wanted to be picky, but he didn't want to leave anyone behind.
The bad reputation of ostracizing colleagues. The ball has been brought back to me again. Grandma, I am worthy of being a spy, and I don't hold back.
But he didn't want to be the bad guy, so he just said, "You'd better pick whatever you want." So, he said it to death, but he shook his head repeatedly and said: "This... brother is really hard-working and meritorious. This picks a position."
But it’s also the right thing to do.”
The people around him didn't have the thick officialdom experience of Commander Thors. Even though they were unwilling in their hearts, they kept saying yes and constantly giving advice.
Someone even shouted loudly: "Yes, yes, Brother Lei Luo, if it weren't for my brother's place being too difficult and the station being too simple and unworthy of your contribution, I would take the initiative to give up my position to others."
I leave it to you to lead us all."
"That's right, that's right. Those brats under me are also too lazy. They are as stupid as donkeys. They can't move even if they are whipped with a small whip. If it weren't for the fear that Brother Lei Luo would look down on me, I would take the initiative.
Give way to the virtuous."
"That is, Brother Lei Luo is a person who does great things, and he must be worthy of Brother Lei's contribution."
"Yes, if it weren't for the lack of oil and water in my place..."
"..."
Everyone was talking in a hurry, as if they were fighting over each other, but if they listened carefully, they saw that it was Yang Bailao's complaint. All the dignified imperial guards were poor and broke, and their monthly military pay was not enough to make two pots of soy sauce.
The house is old and dilapidated, and the employees are poor and stupid. Everyone is working as underpants to barely make ends meet.
Lorraine just listened to their polite words, took a look at their gorgeous uniforms, and saw the glittering gold on their hands, knowing that they were all telling lies.
Everyone knows that although this ruffian has a lot of hard work and a great background, and has great hands and eyes, he is actually a spy, er, not a spy.
In the novel, what is the image of these spies? They are all extremely wretched, sly-eyed, and specialize in playing tricks on people behind their backs.
Among other things, they are active in the Arkadelin Secret Intelligence Department. Their spies have terrifying power and specialize in spying on others. No one in the Arkadelin hates them.
The one in front of me is even more powerful. He comes from the Military Intelligence Department, which is one level higher than the Secret Intelligence Department.
This time I am transferred to the Guards, and there is no guarantee that my old habit will not relapse. If I look at someone I don't like, I will make a small report to the superiors, etc., and if I try to trick someone behind their back, everyone will not be able to take advantage of them.
Everyone is messing around in the big dyeing vat of Arkadelin, and no one’s butt is clean.
When the time comes, all the bad things he has done will be revealed, and the military police will definitely send someone to treat him to a cup of coffee or something.
For a time, the hall was buzzing with noise and excitement.
Lorraine looked at it, smiled immediately, and then said loudly: "Everyone, everyone, please be quiet."
He looked at Thors and said: "Lord Commander, what I want to go to the most is actually the logistics supply..."
The fat man next to him immediately turned blue, as if he was about to have a heart attack. He pressed his heart with both hands and kept breathing heavily.
Lorraine glanced at him, it seemed that this guy was in charge of logistics.
These officers are all despicable bitches. As long as they judge others by themselves and take a brief look at them, they will immediately feel enlightened. The logistics department has always been the most lucrative position in the army. They report, squander, misappropriate, and resell military supplies.
, passing off inferior products as good ones, taking kickbacks, etc. are all ways to make money in the logistics industry.
Just by looking at the constipated expression on his face as if he was really about to die, one could tell that the fat man had embezzled a lot of the military's food and fodder money, and the accounts were definitely filled with a hole so big that even the sale of underpants couldn't fill it.
Thors looked at his face and couldn't help cursing in his heart at the moment, but then he found that the fat man was like a little pug waiting for meat and bones, with watery eyes open and looking at him. If there was someone behind him,
If it were his tail, he would definitely wag it as hard as he could.
Thors also felt helpless for a while. You must know that the logistics quartermaster is very good at life. He also got a big share of the money that was stolen. He never lacked filial piety during the holidays. If this matter
If he was stabbed out, although the quartermaster would be unlucky, he would not be easy either.
By that time, although it will not be possible to lose one's position and be dismissed from office, it will be inevitable to organize things from top to bottom, and then the past few years will be equivalent to wasting money.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look a little ugly. He coughed dryly and was about to speak to stop Lorraine.
At this moment, Lorraine heard a change of tone and continued: "But having said that, the work of logistics and military supplies is complicated and extremely cumbersome. I am a newcomer, I have never done it before, and the business is not good.
Familiar, even if you go there, you will definitely be confused. It's a small thing to do with your hands, but if it delays a major military event, it will be a heavy loss.
Do you think so?"
As he said that, he turned to look at the fat officer who was almost frightened and had a heart attack with a joking look on his face.
The officer was overjoyed and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, Brother Lei Luo is indeed smart and wise, with piercing eyes, haha, hahaha. You don't know that the hard work and backbreaking work all belong to our munitions department, so big
Build a house
, everything as small as sewing and mending clothes is under the control of our munitions department. Soldiers will scold me if I don’t do it well, and I will scold those who do it well. Brother, my legs are so short when I run out every day, so I just do trivial things.
It's been nine years and I haven't been able to move up a level.
But having said that, if brothers really want to come to the military supply department, I will open my hands and welcome you warmly, and I will never hide anything, haha, hahaha..."
Seeing Lorraine lift it up high, put it down gently, bypassing the logistics department, his worries disappeared at this moment, he smiled happily, pressed his hands on his high and protruding belly, and the fat on his face couldn't help but
Jitter.
The quartermaster complained in front of everyone and said that his work was useless, but everyone secretly cursed this fat man for being a shameless person. All his fat body was raised in the quartermaster department, and he still had the nerve to say that he had not done anything for nine years.
For promotion, I have to mention you, you damn fat guy, every year, and it’s not like you just refuse to leave.
This damn fat guy has learned to pretend to be a good person at this time, and he almost peed his pants without looking at the coward he looked like when he was scared just now.
But at the same time, they were also worried. They looked at Lorraine intently, and secretly thought in their hearts: Will this guy go to that unlucky guy and steal his position? But don't blame me.
Lorraine hesitated for a moment, then looked at the officer in purple and black uniform next to him with a smile, and said slowly: "Actually, the military judge is not bad either."
The man suddenly looked nervous, grinned, and said boldly: "Brother Lei, let's be honest. If you really want to do this, I will welcome you with both hands. Brother, I've really had enough of the position of military judge.
But let me explain in advance, this position may look good and sound very prestigious, but in fact, it has no oil or water at all, and it does nothing to offend people, just like these guys before.
He cursed me a lot.
I just catch people and spank them every day at work. To be honest, just seeing those white buttocks being spanked black and blue every day, and finally turning into colorful ones, makes me want to vomit. Other than that,
I just patrol the camp and check the posts, and you will get slapped with damning accusations."
Although everyone seemed calm on the surface, they were cursing in their hearts: Damn it, your grandson is talking nonsense with his eyes open. Apart from the Military Supplies Department, you are the fattest military judge.
After catching a person, they publicly demand a bribe, ranging from 100 to a big one and 50 to a small one. Just like the dog officials in the Supreme Court, if you give money, your sentence will be reduced. If you give a copper less, you will beat the person until he cannot take care of himself.
You have to stay in bed for at least half a month to recuperate, and you often avenge yourself and take revenge. You old dogs are the most vicious and cruel.
Lorraine looked at the man but also smiled and said: "Don't worry, brother, although I want to join, this military law office has always been known for its fairness and strictness, and it patrols the whole camp without any slack, and wakes up earlier than a chicken.
I sleep later than a prostitute. It’s extremely hard. Brother, I spent a few years living in fear in other places, and when I came back, it was like I had changed to a more peaceful job.”
The man immediately grinned and nodded, feeling deeply that Lorraine's words really spoke to his heart. He sighed inwardly: He is indeed a high-level spy... Uh, bah bah bah.
, was born as a senior agent. This knowledge and awareness are much better than those gang of eight dead soldiers.
Damn it, grandma, I worked so hard to inspect the whole camp and enforce strict military discipline, but I didn't even get a good night's sleep all year round. I just collected two small coins. Isn't it for your own good?
These guys are all cheap, and they all like to be beaten so much. Some people can't live without a beating every month.
Is it easy for me to bear the infamy and sacrifice my personal reputation for the sake of the entire army?
Thinking of this, he reached out his hand, patted Lorraine's shoulder heavily, and sighed loudly: "Brother, don't say anything, long live understanding~! Tears are rolling. If you say it again, I will
I’m going to cry.”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes twice. He originally wanted to wipe away a few tears, but he was so angry these days that he couldn't wipe out the tears. Instead, he accidentally picked out a big lump of eye droppings.
.
In the end, he had no choice but to wipe the snot from his nose heavily and wipe it all on his pants. He looked at Lorraine with a grateful face, "It's like the person who gave birth to me is my parents, and the person who knows me is Captain Lei Luo."
At the same time, the military judge suddenly felt that his behavior was a little noble. When he looked at his colleagues, his eyes were calmer and more confident than before. He secretly decided in his heart: Well, well. When he goes back to ask for money,
There must be an additional charge of 20%, no, an additional charge of 30%. Only in this way can I make up for the pain of losing my reputation in my heart~!
Lorraine smiled and continued: "Although I don't have any major problems, I have a lot of small problems. I can't bear the heavy responsibility at all. What's more, if you want to go to the Military Law Office, you need at least a school-level military rank.
, and you must be as highly respected as your Excellency and a representative figure who can be called a military model in order to be able to hold the reins.
I am just a captain now, and even if I reluctantly take office, I will not be able to convince the public. When we deal with disciplinary violations, everyone will not say anything about it, but they will definitely not be convinced in their hearts."
The officer grinned fiercely at that moment, and finally said fiercely: "Okay, I won't say anything anymore. Brother, if you get promoted later and want to work with us, I will open the door to welcome you."
Lorraine also nodded repeatedly and said: "That's all I'll remember. Don't look back. I went to find you, but you turned your back and refused to admit it."
The officer laughed loudly, then slapped his chest heavily and said: "We soldiers have always been clear-cut. Anyone who refuses to pay is a coward~! Our military law officers keep their word."
After saying that, I couldn't help but feel a little regretful. If that ruffian really wanted to come to my place, would I have to be a coward and default on my debt? If there was a professional snitch around me, how could I be fined?
Collect money?
Lorraine looked at the officers in office and found that apart from these two, the rest were just a few station commanders and staff officers, so their resources were quite limited.
He immediately turned to look at Thors and said, "Sir, you'd better be polite. Let's do whatever we want to do. Don't break the rules of the military camp."
Thors was stunned at the moment, and was a little surprised, and said: "You have thought about it. It will be relatively comfortable if you are in the headquarters. If you join the company now, even though you are also a squadron commander, but then
But it's much harder than being in the headquarters.
And...and..."
He paused for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said very straightforwardly: "Let's open the skylight and speak frankly. Although the army has strict discipline, rewards must be rewarded, and crimes must be punished. But you must understand that these are
To deceive those ignorant newbies.
Although the company below has more freedom, the opportunities for meritorious service, promotion and promotion are less than those in the headquarters. The Admiral has high hopes for you, you say...this is right."
The other officers also looked shocked. It was hard to believe that this pretty boy would take the initiative to leave the company. This was asking for trouble.
They have also experienced training for a long time, and they all know that the company below can even be called a graveyard for young officers. There were many talented people who were full of confidence when they went down, but in the end they could only waste their years.
You may not be able to survive until you grow old.
The only right way is to spend some time in the headquarters, even as a staff officer. In this way, no matter what credit you have, you can get a share of it.
And if you hang out in front of Shangguan for a long time, you will naturally attract attention. With the care and promotion of your superiors, promotion and promotion are of course a piece of cake.
Not all young officers with backgrounds and backgrounds start out as staff officers or adjutants. Those who go to the basic company will suffer the consequences. They will be promoted to a higher level after working at the headquarters for two years. When they reach the rank of colonel and captain, there will be a vacancy in the corps.
If you casually defeat the unruly people, you will be able to become a general smoothly.
Become the captain of the middle school~?
Maybe my life will be gone that day.
The quartermaster and the military judge next to him also looked concerned, and they repeatedly advised Lorraine, saying: "Brother, brother, please think about it again, think about it clearly~! It will be a difficult life down there~!
"
Lorraine smiled and said: "It's nothing. I really want to join the company. Everyone here is a carrot and a pit, and each has an important position. I am new here, so I can't take away your jobs.
And according to the transfer order, my position should be below, right? If the rules are broken, it will be bad."
Everyone listened to what he said was reasonable, and couldn't help but fell silent for a while.
Thors secretly sneered in his heart. He was originally worried about Lorraine's position arrangement. If the arrangement was too high, he entered the headquarters and went back to make a small report or something, he would be in trouble.
And if the arrangement is low, not to mention anything else, it just doesn’t look good in terms of the admiral’s face.
You must know that he came here specifically to see that ruffian. From this point alone, he knew that he must have favored Lorraine. If Lei Luo really knew the chief and deputy chief and let them know, he would not think that he
It's so unscrupulous that even the people under their boss' care dare to get stuck.
But now that Lorraine knows so much about practical matters and has taken the initiative to propose it, she can shift the responsibility away from her.
The worst thing is, when I asked the question later, I told the truth and praised the ruffian a lot, saying that he took the initiative to ask for basic training.
By then, the big guys above will also know that this ruffian is young, energetic, has limited knowledge, and has nothing to do with them.
In this way, not only can he sell well without offending others, but he can also suppress that hateful pretty boy.
Thinking of this, he immediately laughed and said: "Young man, you are indeed brave, knowledgeable and courageous. You can be called a role model for our generation of soldiers, good, good, good~!"
He said the word "good" several times in succession, and then glanced fiercely at the faces of the officers in the hall.
Everyone immediately understood, changed their tone together, and started talking to Lorraine. What kind of outstanding young man, a man with ambition, a role model for the Guards, the top ten outstanding young soldiers of the Semitic tribe...etc., etc., anyway, he couldn't speak.
Of course, everyone poured out as much money as they had in their stomachs, and put a high hat on Lorraine's head, for fear that he would change his mind.
Listening to their disgusting flattery, Lorraine didn't care. Instead, he looked at Thors and said, "Please give me the order."
Thors immediately slammed the table and shouted: "Okay~!"
Immediately afterwards, his expression changed and he shouted sternly: "Captain Lei Luo, please obey~! From today on, you will be the commander of the 8th Squadron of the 7th Wing, effective immediately."
Lorraine gently knocked on the leather boots on her feet, saluted, and first cursed in her heart: You son of a bitch, and then replied loudly: "As ordered~! Sir."
When Thors saw Lorraine performing the military salute, his old face wrinkled and then softened. He laughed and said: "Brother Lei Luo, I have to leave the affairs of the Eighth Squadron to you in the future. As far as I know, those
The bastards have always made a lot of noise, so you have to deal with them properly and maintain military discipline. I believe that with your ability, brother, it won't be a problem."
Lorraine also grinned and said, "Sir, don't worry."
When the officers nearby heard that Thors transferred Lorraine to the Eighth Squadron, they looked at each other with strange expressions, and no one said anything for a long time.
It only took the two of them a short time to complete all the procedures.
Lorraine took the document, took a look at it, and found that the Eighth Squadron seemed to have been short of personnel for a long time. The last signature date of the previous commander was actually two years ago.
Lorraine couldn't help but be surprised. The commander of the Thors Forbidden Army moved extremely quickly. It looked like he was afraid that if he took a step slower, Lorraine would wake up and regret it.
It wasn't until all the documents were stamped and signed that they would take effect tomorrow. Thors breathed a long sigh of relief. Then he coughed heavily and regained his official authority.
Lorraine was suspicious, but she glanced at him and saw that he had a straight face and acted like a big-tailed gray wolf. Knowing that, he asked, because this grandson would also use official language to deal with him. Anyway, he could figure it out later.
There's no point in getting into trouble here and asking for trouble.
Besides, he is here to cause destruction. Whether the Eighth Squadron is good or bad has little to do with him. If he messes up, he will just walk away.
So, he took half a step back, cursing in his mind: You son of a bitch. At the same time, he saluted again, then turned around and walked out.
Not long after he came out, someone also chased him out of the hall and said: "Captain Lei Luo, Captain, wait a moment."
Lorraine looked back and saw that it was the officer who had just called him in. He couldn't help but smile and said, "What? Brother, do you have any advice?"
