Chapter 115 Brand’s whim.
The major legions and major affairs departments of the empire mainly want to win over the descendants of civilians in the academy and the members of the original exchange group who changed their nationality.
From the perspective of the Imperial Legion and major affairs departments, they want to expand their strength.
From the perspective of descendants of civilians and members of the exchange group.
If you want to participate in the subsequent pioneering wars, establish meritorious deeds, and finally enter the powerful class of the Kaya Empire.
They also need a suitable "starting point and identity".
——This is a win-win!
As for the descendants of local nobles like Brand.
In fact, they are not the main targets of the empire's major legions and major affairs departments.
It’s not that they don’t want to win over.
Mainly because people usually ignore their invitations.
——The families behind them have already arranged their "positions" in the pioneering war.
Take Brand, for example.
Although he is the second son of a viscount, he will not inherit the title in the future, and he does not have any officially recognized special status.
But even if he does nothing, he can still participate in the subsequent pioneering war as a legion mage.
As for the "legion" he belongs to, it is the "legion" composed of the forces of the Holland family and several allied families!
The largest force in the expansion war of the Kaya Empire was not the imperial legion directly under the royal family, but the "private soldiers" sent by the imperial nobles and many small and medium-sized nobles.
During the pioneering war, the private armies of these nobles will be granted "temporary army establishment" by His Majesty the Emperor of the Kaya Empire to participate in the pioneering war.
Something special to note here is: since they are said to be private soldiers of nobles, all the merits achieved in the end will naturally belong to the nobles who participated in the war, and will be distributed among the noble families later!
Then the distribution of merit here can only be distributed to the "relatives" of the nobles.
In addition, even retainers cannot distribute merit.
——This is also one of the methods of centralizing power of the royal family of the Kaya Empire.
——If a person with no background wants to join a noble force, he must first join a force directly under the imperial royal family!
In fact, vacation internships and the like had nothing to do with Brand.
Because he was backed by the Holland family, he was certainly not prepared to waste time in those armies and departments.
However, two days ago, when Brand was using the blank screen to chat with Mr. Holland, the topic of the college sending them an "invitation to take a gap semester internship" happened to come up.
Then one day later, Mr. Holland said to him:
"I thought about it. You and Yersin still lack practical experience. This vacation, you and Yersen will go to Anthony. The 6th Infantry Regiment should have a good workout.
Just in time! I heard that they are going to recruit soldiers in the chaotic areas around the empire next month, and fighting will be inevitable by then."
After hearing Mr. Holland's arrangements for his vacation, Bran De feels that he may have tricked himself!
Brand actually has no objection to accumulating practical experience.
Because of the Great Knight Golem, safety issues can basically be guaranteed.
But if it were to go to Uncle Anthony, Brand would be a little reluctant.
——How can a "noble" mage like him go to the "Infantry Regiment" to accumulate combat experience like a rough-skinned knight like Yersin?
You should go to a place like the "Mage Group" after all!
No matter how bad it is, it's better to be in the "Cavalry Regiment"!
Although Brand argued hard, what is more regrettable is that Mr. Holland is more firm.
According to him, the worse the situation, the better the training effect!
Moreover, Mr. Holland finally said harshly: If Brand doesn't come by then, he will personally tie him up.
Since Mr. Holland has said so, Brand naturally has no choice.
But Brand doesn’t think the problem is too big.
This time we will not be allowed to use space equipment like in the previous actual combat assessment.
So if you bring more supplies then, you should be fine!
...
The time came to evening.
Because the final dinner of this semester will be held soon.
So Brand had already changed into a luxurious dress at this time.
At this time, he walked slowly towards the college's grand banquet hall, just like taking a walk.
Because he was considered a "man of the moment" in the college, it was natural that before he had gone far, several well-dressed seniors in evening gowns approached him with smiles on their faces and walked together with him.
Although on the surface, the current situation looks particularly similar to the situation at this time last semester.
But there are still a lot of differences!
For example, he knows all these seniors now!
For another example, there are more seniors this time than last time!
For another example, the topics they discussed were no longer various anecdotes, but various theoretical knowledge related to magic!
——This is what students should be like!
Brand couldn't help but feel "disgusted" with himself last semester.
At this time, suddenly a senior student next to him asked a question that surprised him.
"Brand, is something going to happen to the empire? The recent trends in various things have made me a little confused."
As soon as these words came out, many senior students around had the same doubts in their eyes.
Of course, there are also a few senior students with dull eyes.
When asked this question, Brand suddenly realized that most of the senior students gathered around him came from civilian families.
Because he was found to have the talent of a mage, he was invited to enroll in the academy.
Although their strength is not outstanding due to resource issues, they work harder than most people in the academy and thus possess richer knowledge than others.
Because of this, Brand likes to stay with them.
Thinking of this, Brand couldn't help but have an idea gradually sprouting.
Faced with the senior sister's question, Brand smiled and slowly described the empire's plan to open up the war.
If Brand guessed correctly, the dean should announce this to all students at tonight's banquet.
So facing these senior students, this matter no longer needs to be kept secret.
After telling all the causes and consequences, and leaving a little time for understanding and digestion, Brand smiled and asked them:
"Sisters, do you want to participate in this pioneering war? This is a good opportunity to enter the aristocratic class!"
After hearing what Brand said, one of the seniors immediately joked:
"Come on! With our strength, The most you can do on the battlefield is to gain some merit and exchange it for some resources. But Brand, you will definitely be able to get the territory you have always wanted in this pioneering war, right?" Brand responded with a smile: "That is a
must
. Yes! I am working hard towards this goal. When I have a territory, I will build a library. Then I will invite you to come and read with me!" A senior sister smiled and said: "The salary for hiring us is not low
. !"
Brand patted his chest and said, "Just mention it!"
