Cons changed into a black military uniform and wore a curved metal strip on his arm. This is the symbol of the private, which is the new recruit.

Black is the background, with golden belts embroidered on three sides of the flag, and a silver-winged eagle surrounded by red leaves in the middle. Close to the flag pole is the number where the flag troops are located.

This is the flag of the Ultraman Army.

While obtaining the standard weapons, Cons also got a war horse.

When he got on the horse, Cons' neat moves made the marshal's guards confirm Cons's former officer identity.

Unless in the cavalry and personal forces, other ordinary soldiers have no chance to get in touch with horses, let alone practice riding.

As for why he is so sure that he is an officer? That's because Cons's current temperament is not like a soldier no matter how he looks. If he changed his rank to a silver eagle surrounded by silver leaves, he would probably think he was a major general.

After a rest, the Marshal's personal guards began to set out to pursue the Mandala thieves.

After the march, Cons discovered that there were more than 3,000 guards following the Marshal, not the hundreds of them not long ago.

On the way, Cons learned a lot of information from the personal guards who were interested in showing up.

The marshal's name is Zotra Reinhardt.

When Cons first heard this last name, he felt strange.

Because the surname of the Ultraman Empire's royal family was Lylehart, after a closer look, I found out that the marshal had the royal blood of the Ultraman Empire. This surname was divided from the royal family hundreds of years ago.

Although it has nothing to do with the royal family in name, its bloodline is the same. This is probably why Marshal Ultraman was able to sit so safely in the position of Marshal?

Cons thought so.

This time, the Marshal will personally lead troops to wipe out the Mandra thieves. It was mainly two months ago that the Mandra thieves took the courage of the Bear Heart and Leopard, and looted a village on the Ultraman border. It happened that the Marshal led his guards to patrol the border, and the angry Marshal went out in person.

As for whether this will put the marshal in danger?

Not to mention following the marshal, there was more than one personal guard in the regiment, and a whole brigade's follow-up personal guard troops followed him several kilometers away, with more than 10,000 guards.

How could something go wrong?

Cons, who was a little stupid, asked: "How many personal guards can you command?"

"A full-staff personal guard division."

The guard said a little proudly and asked curiously: "There is no marshal in Qihong Kingdom, so how many guards can their legion commander take?"

"Two hundred people."

Cons's words made the guards who heard them dumbfounded.

"The second-level figure in the top level of the army has only 200 personal guards? This number is not as good as a colonel!"

And under the laughter of the personal guards, Cons also understood the military rank system of the Ultraman Empire.

"Tell you, the military rank and military post of our Ultraman Empire are separated. Unlike you, Qihongguo, you can only limit the chief officer who will lead troops.

"The military ranks of our Ultraman Empire are in the entire military system, that is, whether you are a groom or a logistics soldier, you have military ranks, but the military ranks are different.

"The lowest rank is the private, also known as the new rank, just like you are now. How can you identify the queue without a flag? Look at your left chest, where the army number is embroidered.

"As for how to find troops on the battlefield? You don't have to think about being a soldier, just follow your squad leader. He will follow the squad leader, the squad leader will follow the squad leader, and so on.

"What should you do if you start a melee and get separated from your commander? Then you should either run to the military flag and wait for the appointment of the military officers. Or you should accept the command of an officer with a higher rank than you on the spot. If there is no higher rank than you and the military flag cannot be seen, then you should exercise the power of the officer to gather the troops.

"If you want to be promoted after becoming a private, you will have to be a soldier for one year, or have participated in a battle once, and you can be promoted to a first-class private. None of our personal guards is a first-class private, all of them are non-commissioned or above!" But I believe that it won't take long to know that the rank of the first-class private is two bent metal strips, haha. Now pursuing bandits is considered a battle. No matter whether you kill the enemy or not, you will definitely be a first-class private.

"If you have no merits after becoming a first-class private, you can only be promoted to a corporal after three years of military service or five battles. The rank of a corporal is a curved metal strip with a silver eagle on it.

"After the corporal passes, it is a sergeant with two bent metal strips and a silver eagle. If you don't have any merits, you will need four years of military service or ten battles to be promoted.

"Then are three metal strips and a silver eagle sergeant. If you don't have any merits, you will need five years of military service or fifteen battles to be promoted.

"Look, I am the rank of sergeant, pretty, right?

"Our non-commissioned officers can only serve as sergeant commander, but both sergeant and sergeant can serve as squad leader. Unfortunately, except for you, the lowest of us marshal guards are sergeants, so we can only be soldiers.

"But when we go to low-level units, it's awesome. The Ultraman Empire's military system stipulates that the military positions are the same, and those with low ranks must obey those with high ranks.

"Well, the lieutenant is above the lieutenant, and they are the third level of the second lieutenant, lieutenant, and lieutenant. Remember, if an officer above the sergeant has not made any contribution, he will never be promoted.

"That is to say, if you have never made meritorious contributions, even if you participate in a hundred battles and have been a soldier for a hundred years, then at most you will retire with the rank of sergeant. Among them, the position of squadron leader can be held by the second lieutenant and lieutenant, but the position of brigade leader can only be held by the captain and the major.

"Don't compare us, we are the marshal's guards! A sergeant is all the marshal's guards with the rank of lieutenant? What's your expression like "so that's the way it is? Our ranks are all cut by one sword and one shot, and there is no back door at all!" After the lieutenant passes, he will be the school official, divided into major, lieutenant colonel, colonel, and colonel. After the corpse passes, he will be the general, that is, major general, lieutenant general, general, and general. Let me tell you that the rank of general is different, and he is surrounded by a silver eagle with silver leaves! Yes, it is similar to the marshal's, but it is not golden."

Cons, who was amazed at the rigorous and meticulous military system of the Ultraman Empire, suddenly asked the question about his personal guards.

"Tell you, Cons, the personal guards of our Imperial Army are arranged according to the military ranks, and officers above the second lieutenant are qualified to have personal guards. The personal guards of the lieutenant are called orderly soldiers. They are not responsible for protection, but are specifically responsible for taking care of daily life, and are considered as life adjutants.

"The level of the school official is considered to have security guards. The level of the general is the personal guard, that is, the private soldiers that the empire pays to help you raise. The private troops that Shangguan has no power to command. Not only that, the number of people has also increased significantly. Therefore, the army often says that the colonel is a wall. Once you jump over it, you will leap and fly!"

Hearing this, Cons couldn't help asking again: "Didn't it mean that the quota of marshals is 500, and only the monarch serves as marshals, so there is no limit on the quota? Why is there more than 500 guards in the colonel now?"

Cons' question once again caused the guard to laugh wildly, and a guard said, "I understand. It turns out that your understanding of our Ultraman Empire is learned from other countries.

"Tell you, the 500 guards in the marshal were controlled by the countries controlled by merchants. Only those guys who only believe in money would have set such a small quota for guards. For example, the enemy of our empire, the Wilt Free Alliance, is the most bastard. The marshal's guards actually asked the marshal to be responsible for recruiting and his own salary.

"The last time the Marshal of the Wilt Free Alliance came to our empire for a visit, the people he brought were so shabby. If His Majesty the Emperor and the Marshal had issued strict orders, I am afraid that the nobles of the imperial capital would have donated money to the Marshal. Not to mention those nobles, even when I saw his pitiful appearance, I could almost take out a gold coin and throw it to him!"

The guards who heard it immediately burst into laughter.

"Huh? Since the Wilt Free Alliance and the Empire are enemies, why can their marshals still come to visit? Are you not afraid of us beating him?" Cons asked curiously.

"Hehe, you are worthy of being a person from a small country, you are so sinister. But I'm very surprised. Doesn't there be any regulations for the nobles to avoid death in Qihong Kingdom?" asked a personal guard.

Cons nodded: "Yes, when we encountered nobles in combat, we could only leave them to Shangguan to solve them. However, after the king of Qihong Kingdom was killed by the commander of the Imperial Guards and executed most of the nobles, the regulations for the nobles to avoid death disappeared."

"Oh my God! Even the personal guards betray the master general, they are even planning to murder the master general! As expected, this kind of thing will happen only in remote, backward and barbaric countries!"

The exclamations and sighs of the guards left Cons speechless.

According to his original intention, no matter what noble he is or not, he will kill as long as it is an enemy. How can there be so many considerations?

I didn't expect that this idea was so incredible here? Maybe it was because of this idea that I didn't care much about the previous betrayal of Ida?

"Hey, our empire is not a barbaric country. These enemies who enter the empire openly, especially those with identities, will definitely treat us with courtesy and will not do anything to seize and murder, because this is related to the credibility and face of our empire.

"Haha, Cons, it is the most wise decision for you to join the Imperial Army. Our empire did not stipulate that the enemy nobles must be handed over to the nobles of the country, but stipulated that whoever captured them would be.

"Don't look at the freedom alliance that Wilt claims to be. In fact, in addition to the title of Kings, they have more nobles than our empires. If they catch a noble on the battlefield, they will pay for ransom, beauties, and territory. But you can't speak loudly from the lion, you can only ask for one tenth of their property." A personal guard said exaggeratedly.

Cons didn't care about these questions, so he asked, "By the way, what's going on between the Empire and the Liberty Alliance?"

"It's nothing, it's a conflict of interest. A war is fought almost every few days. However, although the two countries often fight and die on the border, because we lack a navy and they lack an army, no one can do anything to anyone. In addition, we need their harbor, and they need our property, so they are fighting and stopping.

"As for the excuses for war, there are many different kinds. Sometimes the Liberty Alliance said that they received a batch of defective products from our country and started the war. Sometimes we said that their merchants evaded taxes and launched the war. In fact, all excuses were fake, just to gain benefits from the other party."

As for the situation on this continent, although Cons learned from the previous brief map, the map like ghost-drawn talisman made Cons unable to believe the authenticity.

Like the Mantes Forest, only one piece was drawn on the map and marked that it was only tens of thousands of square kilometers.

In order to understand the situation, Cons took the opportunity to ask: "How big is this Mantes Forest?"

"Oh, it's just a small forest with an area of ​​one million and a half kilometers." An officer with the rank of lieutenant said inadvertently.

Cons' eyes widened immediately.
