Chapter 2 Storm Cavalry Squadron and 603 Technical Test Squadron
Griffith was shocked!
This promotion cost him 20 merit points. He was promoted again less than half a year after becoming a reserve assault squadron leader, which somewhat conflicted with the personnel procedures. Moreover, Raven's battle could not be called a victory at all, and there was no reason to arrange it.
Special promotion.
Beyeland's military ranks are divided into two systems: the Praetorian Guard and the Wehrmacht.
After promotion, Griffith's actual authority in combat as an officer of the Young Guards has been equal to that of a captain in the National Defense Force. His monthly salary has been increased from 150 silver francs to 200 silver langs. Counting other income, he now has 350 silver francs.
Lang’s monthly income.
The increase in salary is just a minor incidental matter. This promotion means that the command of the test unit mentioned before will soon be handed over to Griffith. This is why it is necessary to start related personnel work now.
What kind of force would it be? Griffiths, eager to try, excitedly opened the attachment sent along and found that it was a military briefing on the two squadrons that were about to be formed.
One of them is the newly established senior cavalry combat unit - the "Storm" Cavalry Squadron directly under Count Larmour.
This unit is being formed. It is usually stationed on the outskirts of Beyeland. Daily camp operations and training are commanded by senior lieutenant Jerry Lean. The command during combat is transferred to the third-level assault squadron leader Gerry of the Guards system.
Fez takes control.
In a narrow sense, Beyeland only refers to the world capital, the glorious mountain city Beyeland. If the concept of "Beyeland" is slightly expanded, it means that the city of Beyeland and its surrounding areas are directly under the jurisdiction of the royal family and the government.
The Crown Territory, large tracts of land in the Eastern and Southern Provinces, as well as cities and important ports such as Old Town and Sebasto.
The larger concept of Beyeland also includes the western territory of the Grand Duke of Verona, the northern territory of the Grand Dukes of Odessa and Sebasto, and the southern territory owned by the Grand Duke of Mirantis. The four dukes and their respective vassals
Together they govern a huge territory and are nominal vassals or loyal allies.
In addition to the four dukes, there are also some dukes with smaller territories. For example, Duke Meyer, the king's most loyal comrade and comrade-in-arms, is one of them. They have their own borders with some border marquises and big nobles such as Count Larmore.
Territory, but spends most of its time in Bijaland, and is a direct vassal of Bijalan who obeys the king's orders.
The direct vassals of King Beyeland are different from the vassals of the dukes in various regions. They are less independent, their fiefs are on the border, and they have a limited number of private armies. Their main way of loyalty to the kingdom is in the government and the army.
Generally speaking, if you hold a public or military position, there is no need to build your own army. Even if you do, it will be a garrison deployed in border territories.
However, they theoretically retain the power to have an army. As long as the royal family has no objections, they can recruit troops. For some reasons, after the mysterious meeting of Homonworth, Earl Larmore began to actively promote him and his allies.
Efforts to establish a rapid reaction force.
The cost of the "Storm" Cavalry Squadron is borne by the Earl himself, and the rights of personnel and deployment belong to the Earl's Palace. Sonia serves as the nominal supreme commander, and Griffith is actually responsible for combat command. The total number of personnel is 113, including a 17-year-old.
An armored cavalry squad, two 24-man light cavalry squads and two 24-man dragoon squads. This is a newly formed unit, including senior officers and sergeants like Lieutenant Lean, as well as some extraordinary people in training.
and new recruits.
The armored cavalry squad is the core of this force. It is almost entirely composed of experienced or highly capable sergeants and extraordinary people. It is the strongest assault force. They are equipped with swords, sabers, bows and arrows, lances, and breastplates according to their respective tasks.
, mail armor, iron helmet, greaves, iron gauntlets, throwing lances, pointed axes, lassoes, lined cloaks, daggers and daggers. Some officers and sergeants also have horse armor mixed with leather and iron.
Each armored cavalry has an auxiliary soldier who is not part of the establishment to serve him, carrying short guns, hammers, shields, awls, daggers, large saddle bags, glove boxes, oil-skin waterproof sleeping bags, brass kettles, woolen pads and other items.
There is also a pack horse.
The treatment of light cavalry and dragoons other than armored cavalry is much worse. The three of them share an auxiliary to help them carry items.
Paxiu, who carried the flag for Griffith in the Battle of Verona, has been included in the establishment of this army. He will follow the battle as a dragoon, that is, a mounted infantryman, and receive riding training. If he performs well, he can be promoted
For light cavalry.
This letter provides part of the personnel and organization information of this unit. It seems that the personnel of the unit are not complete yet, and many people are still being trained and deployed.
What intrigued him the most was Lien, the commander of daily affairs. Judging from the files, everyone called him "Drunk" Lien.
He is an old officer who is always in a state of mental tension, and will go crazy and collapse due to unpredictable events. However, he is a Sequence 7 lawbreaker with superb combat experience and battlefield planning capabilities, as well as experience in team management.
Very rich too.
There was a strange record in the interview with the personnel department. They found that Lieutenant Lean firmly believed that he was a deserter, although others did not think so. He firmly believed that he had escaped from the place that belonged to him, the place that could accept him. He longed to return to the battlefield.
He was also afraid of the cruelty of the battlefield. He was worried that he would go crazy on the battlefield. When he plucked up the courage to sign up at the recruiting office, he saw a group of recruits who were old enough to be his grandchildren. Every time he asked to go to the front line, he once
His comrades-in-arms, the people he protected, those who loved him, became his obstacles. They knew what he wanted to do, and they also knew that this was the destination he longed for.

Mentally unstable people are not suitable to be commanders. But considering that Lieutenant Lean is only responsible for daily affairs and the management power is in his own hands, Griffith is relieved.
Griffith then looked through the personnel list and found some young people who were closely related to the Larmore family.
"Leader 3 Captain Gil de Ace."
This is the eldest son from a high-ranking knight family under the Larmore family. He is very tall, with ruby-like hair and blue eyes. The Earl's Palace commented that he has extraordinary courage and extraordinary talent, is upright and tolerant, and is very frank.
. He is only 16 years old, is a Sequence 9 of the Holy Knight Path, and plans to enroll at Homemonworth in the fall to enter Roland College. His shortcoming is that he is a little too upright, if this can be considered a shortcoming. The Earl's Palace and his family hope that
Griffith can take good care of him and grow into a man of his own as soon as possible.
The other member is a 15-year-old boy from Neopolis Island like Griffith, Desai Dalt. This boy has just graduated from the Junior Sergeant School and is a Sequence 9 "recruit" of the Law Breaker Path.
He is starting the first year of his two-year service in the Assault Cavalry. His extraordinary characteristics, resume and growth path are very similar to Griffith. If he survives these two years, the Earl's Palace should arrange for him to enter the Army University.
study.
The cleric in the squadron is 16-year-old trainee monk Joshua Manado, who comes from a family of extraordinary people and is also a young man who plans to attend Homemon Watts in the fall. The personnel report commented that he is "both smart and smart."
He is gentle and has a bit of a perfectionist tendency. He is not a good soldier but a good monk."
Griffith thought for a while. He once recommended Lanzada, whom Raven met, to the Larmore House, but the girl who disguised herself as a man later went on a tour in Odessa and did not have time for the time being.
Another person who attracts attention is the girl who serves as Sonia's guard. Her name is Kallen Abelon. She is 15 years old. She is a Sequence 9 Beyonder of the Demon Hunter path. She served as Griffith's combat commander.
She is responsible for Sonya's safety. The file says that this girl was born on the border of Odessa. It is rumored that her parents are two adventurers. After she was abandoned by her parents, she was adopted by a kind village chief. Unfortunately, several
A few months ago, her village was attacked by orcs, and the village chief and villagers were massacred. Only Kallen escaped by hiding in the cellar. The army from the nearby Larmore territory came to support and found the hungry and dying girl.
Karen, rescued her.
Kallen may have inherited the extraordinary characteristics of her biological parents. The Earl's Mansion soon discovered that she has amazing strange powers and keen insight. She is loyal to the Earl's Mansion who saved her life, and is also obsessed with revenge against the orcs. She will be
A good warrior and guardian.
However, the village was attacked by orcs a few months ago? What is going on... Seeing this, Griffith stopped. He did not see these news in the newspapers of Homonworth and Byerland.
, but Kallen’s personnel file is unmistakable.
Did the official conceal the news of the attack in the north? Everyone thought the world was peaceful.
…
In addition to this unit, there is also a special unit that accepts Griffith's combat command-the 603 Technical Experiment Squadron.
This is a force affiliated with the Reserve Army Command. Its mission is to test the latest weapons, protective equipment, and sealed objects during battles and special missions, and to record the actual combat effects for future improvements.
This squadron is not a private army funded by the count himself, but is affiliated with Beyeland. It is an experimental unit for testing new weapons. It cooperates with the Storm Cavalry Squadron in battles to complete actual combat inspections and records of new equipment. With an engineering background, he has also participated in
Sennamon, who fought at Verona, served as a technical warrant officer on Griffith's recommendation.
According to the mysterious meeting, Count Larmore and several big figures are preventing various hidden risks. They spend considerable income and each establish a quick-response loyal force. The Larmore Cavalry Squadron is the core of this force.
, the earl provides equipment and military pay at the expense of the earl. The earl's own daughter controls military affairs, finance and personnel. Fighting under the command of the most reliable young officer like Griffith, there will definitely be many officers loyal to the Larmore family.
and soldiers.
Of course, the Earls and others will not take on the defense of the kingdom by themselves. Even if they have so much money and people, they have no reason to do so. When necessary, they will not hesitate to borrow the power of the royal family. The 603 Technical Experiment Squadron will
