Cons walked into the room and saw the officers in the room. Cons glanced slightly. The lowest rank of the colonel was present, with fourteen, ten colonels and five major generals. Seeing these, Cons was shocked. The nearly thirty people present were all captains, and none of the chiefs of staff, military police, and other chiefs of staff, were present.

Moreover, Cons also found very sensitively that among so many people, the most arrogant ones were not the major generals, but the school officials. Among the ones, the five major generals not only did not have the expression of their bosses, but seemed a little restrained by the angered young wife.

Seeing Cons appear, the officers present were obviously stunned, and most of the people's eyes were on the rank of major on Cons' shoulders.

A colonel near the door frowned and was about to yell. The major general of the Fifth Brigade came forward and stopped him with a smile: "Don't make a fuss, he is Cons, we are our own people."

"Hello, sir." Cons saluted.

This colonel, who is at least middle-aged and above, squeezed out a false smile when he heard this, and waved his hand with a little bit of a slight smile: "So you are Cons. You're welcome. Everyone is our own people. I am the captain of the Fourth Regiment of the Fifth Brigade." After that, he didn't sign up, and just nodded to the commander of the Fifth Brigade, and left naturally.

Cons was obviously stunned when he saw the other party's performance. It was normal for the captain of the Fourth Regiment to be rude to him, but why did he dare to treat his direct boss like this? Just suing for withdrawal without permission violated military rules.

Seeing Cons' expression, the brigade commander smiled bitterly and whispered: "No wonder, after the incident in the imperial capital, the commander of the regiment holding military power immediately became much more arrogant."

"Imperial Capital Incident?" Cons was stunned again. He had just returned and Weijie was recruited here before he could report the situation. He had no idea what had happened.

"You don't know? It's the incident where the household registration information of the Imperial Capital Army soldiers was burned. After these materials were burned, they would lose the handle that threatened the soldiers. Because the empire is so big and there are so many soldiers, once they lose their household registration information, even if they rebel, they will not cause trouble to their families." said the brigade commander.

"Uh, even if the information is destroyed, wouldn't it be enough to write it again? Is it so... well, is it exaggerating?"

Cons was still stunned. He couldn't understand that the soldier's household registration and birth information was gone, and the soldiers would dare to rebel openly? If this could happen, wouldn't the empire's hundreds of years of rule be false?

"Everyone knows this, but most generals of the commander-in-chief are unwilling to rewrite the information." The brigade commander lowered his voice.

"In fact, it is useless for the commander of the division commander, the commander of the Legion. You have also seen the performance of the Fourth Regiment captain just now. Only those officers who truly master the troops will not be willing to rewrite the materials.

"You must know that after losing the household registration constraints, their soldiers are their private soldiers now, and they are the capital for their power. How can they shoot themselves in the foot!"

Cons was speechless when he heard this. The world's largest empire was burned down because of the military household registration information. The real-powered officers below had a different intention? Is the deterrent power of the empire too poor?

The brigade commander didn't know what was going on, and continued to say with a heart-wrenching look at Cons, "You don't have to be surprised. You nobles like you who live in the imperial capital don't know the following things.

"If it weren't for the military household registration and the system of garrisoning in other places that would ensure that the soldiers would not dare to rebel because they were afraid of implicating their families, the entire empire would have been divided and war decades ago."

Hearing this, Cons looked at the brigade commander in surprise. Why did he say that? Is there an extraordinary hidden danger in the empire? Why does his intelligence system have no clues at all?

However, thinking that both himself and the Secret Guards are outsiders and are not powerful figures born and raised in the Empire, it is very normal for them to not know the secrets of the Empire, so I listened attentively to the brigade commander. But Cons was a little surprised that his brigade commander did not look like a talkative person, so why did he be so enthusiastic about explaining to himself?

The brigade commander saw Cons' focused expression and showed off his charm: "Don't say you don't know, every emperor in the empire was born in the sea of ​​blood, and some of those losers in the competition for the throne were slaughtered, and some were hidden. Thinking about the emergence of thousands of emperors in the empire over the past few hundred years, you can know how many enemies hating these emperors are hidden in the empire.

"In addition to these losers in the competition for the throne, there are also great nobles who always hope to establish a principality, and of course there are even ethnic minorities that pursue independence for generations. These three forces are almost all over the entire empire's various departments and industries, and no one can distinguish them except that they know each other.

"They used to be because they could not command the troops, so they did not cause trouble. Now the household registration information of the soldiers has disappeared. Can they not act immediately, who have long been looking forward to the opportunity? Hundreds of years of resentment, once it erupts...ah."

The brigade commander shook his head bitterly. Now that the war in the empire is about to break out, it is even more difficult for his master to compete for the throne. However, if he separatist side, he should be able to do it? I hope the officer controlled by his master will not have any unfair intentions.

Cons opened his mouth. He never thought that so many enemies were hidden within the empire that had been established for hundreds of years. In addition, the surrounding countries were all hostile, so the empire might not be so easy.

The brigade commander saw Cons's appearance and patted Cons on the shoulder and smiled, "Don't worry, in fact, in troubled times, we can better show the style of our soldiers, because the law of troubled times is that anyone with a big fist can be the king. As long as you firmly grasp the soldiers under your command, it is not difficult to do something big."

After saying that, he patted Cons on the shoulder again and walked to Hara, the four brigade commanders.

Cons frowned slightly. The brigade commander had said so much to him, but he did not tell him why he could attend the meeting.

The law of troubled times? The one with a big fist is the king? Hold on to the soldiers under his command?

Did the brigade commander take a fancy to the soldiers he brought out of Tianjin City?

"The division commander is here!"

With a shout, the division commander with the rank of lieutenant general walked into the hall alone. Except for Cons, everyone else saluted casually.

The division commander's eyes flashed, but he still waved his hand with a smile on his face: "You're welcome, just sit down."

As soon as the division commander said, everyone except Cons sat down immediately without any politeness.

Seeing Cons who was still standing and waiting for him to sit down, the division commander waved to Cons with a smile: "Major Cons, please come up."

"Yes." Cons hurriedly came to the division commander to salute.

"Haha, don't be too polite. Come on, let me introduce you to you. This is Major Cons from the Imperial Capital and serves as the staff officer of the Fifth Regiment of the Fifth Brigade. I believe everyone has heard of his name, but has never seen anyone. Please get to know him well."

The five major generals and several school officials nodded to Cons with a smile, while the others looked indifferent, and even one or two of them looked at Cons hostilely.

Then, one of the hostile school officials immediately stood up and said, "Teacher Commander, isn't the chief officer of the corps commander or above qualified to participate in this meeting? Why did he, a small major adviser, run in?"

His words immediately aroused the response of most people: "Yes, yes, drive him out!"

"That's right! A major in charge dares to enter this venue? He's really ignorant!"

Cons stood there expressionlessly. Judging from the performance of these officers, Cons already understood that the corps leaders no longer took their immediate superiors seriously.

After the division commander glanced at Cons, he looked at the five brigade commanders who were smiling and silent. He smiled and increased his voice and said, "The Fifth Regiment Captain of the Fifth Brigade led the troops to fight with the Shanyue soldiers to death, and the entire regiment has been killed and served the country. Therefore, according to the Imperial Military Rules, Major Cons automatically became the commander of the Fifth Regiment."

Hearing this, several school officials immediately laughed out loud: "Swish, a major staff officer serves as the commander of the entire army. What commander should he be the commander of the army if he has no one? The division commander, I suggest that Major Cons return to the division headquarters and continue to serve as the staff. If the Fifth Regiment of the Fifth Brigade is gone, it will be gone, so as not to have an empty organization to defraud military pay."

"Oh, maybe this major escaped at the last minute, otherwise why did the entire corps die in battle but he lives well? I suggest handing him over to the gendarmerie for strict review, and finding out his deserter crimes!"

"Haha, agree! I agree!"

"Yes, he must be punished according to the law!"

Hearing these messy words, the division commander was not angry, but instead blinked at Cons and smiled: "Major Cons, you have doubts about you, I wonder if you will explain it?"

Cons immediately said, "Yes, the lower official received the order from the corps captain to protect the people of Tianjin, so the lower official did not go out of the city to fight with the team."

Cons was not a fool either. He automatically changed the order to protect the people of Jincheng instead of garrisoning the city. Otherwise, abandoning the city would be a serious crime according to the order. As for the order book? The entire corps headquarters fell into Cons' hands, and it was not difficult to rewrite a point.

In the past, Cons just didn't care about his life, and he was never a rigid person.

Besides, Cons didn't think it was wrong to abandon the city and protect the people. As long as the city was gone, it could still be rebuilt if it was gone. His heart was calm and he had no guilt at all.

"Oh, since that's the case, why did you abandon Tianjin City and appear here? After all, you still escaped at the last minute!" A school official stood up and pointed at Cons and said. The school official was the captain of the Fourth Regiment of the Fifth Brigade just now.

Cons didn't understand why these school officials were hostile to him? He did not offend them. He still explained: "Ten thousand people in Tianjin have been placed outside the provincial capital, and the subordinate officials have completed the task."

Cons's words stunned everyone. It can be said that there was no excuse to hit Cons. The fourth team leader thought about the difference between the people of Jincheng and the people of Jincheng, sat down with an ugly expression.

The division commander smiled and said, "Since that's the case, the official appointed Major Cons as the captain of the Fifth Regiment of the Fifth Brigade in accordance with the law. Because Major Cons safely rescued tens of thousands of people from the Shanyue soldiers in Jincheng. According to the imperial military exercises, Major Cons was promoted to the colonel of the virtual rank, and then changed the actual rank after reporting to the emperor's reply. Do you have no objection?"

No one objected to this appointment. What's the use of a short gang leader? And I want to wait for the imperial capital to appoint a real title? Hehe, the imperial capital is in chaos. After the appointment is issued, the world will not know what the situation will be. Just hold the major's military salary for the rest of your life.

Cons was stunned. He was promoted to colonel just by just a little bit? Shouldn’t he be promoted after checking and verifying his military merits? Why did he promote himself in just a few words?

Speaking of which, Cons admired the cumbersome and rigorousness of the Imperial military exercises. He did not expect that this military exercise would not be taken seriously.

Seeing that no one said anything, the division commander immediately said, "Since that's the case, then the appointment is issued."

As he said that, he took out a small roll of sheepskin and a pair of colonel ranks from his pocket and handed it to Cons. Seeing this, the officers and the five major generals frowned. It turned out that the division commander had already been prepared. Could this meeting be the promotion of Cons, a boy from the imperial capital? They are all foils?

Thinking of this, everyone's faces were not good-looking.

After seeing Cons accept the appointment letter and change the rank of military force, the division commander smiled and said, "Col. Cons, I wonder how many people are in your city guard now?"

When everyone heard this, they were stunned. The school officials were a little suspicious that the division commander had a broken mind and that the Fifth Regiment of the Regular Army had been wiped out. They still care about what the City Guard, which had only a few people, did? Could it be that the City Guard was converted into the new recruits of the Fifth Regiment? Relying on the old, weak and remnant soldiers to reorganize the Fifth Regiment? He could think of it.

"Eight, oh, ten thousand people." Cons also calculated the three thousand soldiers under Weijie who escorted the people of Jincheng. Although they could not compare with the eight thousand people who had been guarding the city for many days, they were also members of the city guard after all.

"What?! Ten thousand people! Damn! The city guards are equivalent to three regiments! Are there millions of people in Jincheng?" The officers immediately shouted.

The division commander obviously didn't expect that Cons's city guard would have tens of thousands! His face was first surprised, and then turned into a surprise. He came happily and whispered: "Col. Cons, the number of guards in the division headquarters is really scarce. I wonder if I can support some personnel? Don't worry, I won't treat you badly, after all, we are also business partners."

Cons was stunned, and then he saw the commander of the Fifth Brigade walking to the side and looking at him with a smile without saying a word. He immediately realized that these two immediate bosses were so kind to him, because they were attracted by the city guards in their hands. But they could directly order their troops to be transferred, why...

Seeing the school officials with an excited expression, Cons immediately realized that at this time, the soldiers in his hands were the chief officer's private soldiers and others could not be mobilized at all.
