"Oh my God, I'm not dreaming." "I think I must have heard it wrong." "He is just a baron, or an honorary baron with no territory."

The supreme commander of the expeditionary army is not an ordinary high-level position, but a big man who truly holds the military power of one party, a heavy minister and a powerful minister with one person under ten thousand.

Ricardo's face turned pale, his fists hidden underneath clenched tightly. The huge sense of drop caused the eagle owl on the dragon's shoulder to fluctuate and it was difficult to calm down.

However, this was only a momentary shake, and soon he returned to his usual calm and indifferent appearance, and even joked with the person next to him, "What an unexpected news."

Chen Xing, who was on the cusp of the storm, had a calm expression and stood up and bowed to the **** the throne.

A very polite and crowned determination, Aliya nodded in response, and then nodded to the next Lexi. Lacey stepped forward and announced that today's military and political discussions would end here.

Everyone was amazed again. This means that this military and political meeting is only held for one person. The partiality and respect of the northern princess have been completely written on her face.

People have speculated that the relationship between Chen Xing and the princess has been promoted to such a high position in a straight line. The credit for attacking Qizhong Mountain at night is indeed not small, but after all, it was just a demonstration, not the fact that Qizhong Mountain was actually laid down. This kind of credit is not enough to rise to several levels in a row, and reach the sky in one step.

After Aaliyah left, Chen Xing did not stop much, nodded slightly at the crowd behind him, and then left the venue.

This is not what he used to be. He has become a pivotal figure in the monitor lizard city, and his words and deeds will be closely watched, and if he is careless, he will become the headline of the tabloid. He understands the truth that many words must be lost. Before he can adapt to his new position, he must keep a low profile and avoid the eyes of the crowd.

It is impossible to say that his heart is not excited. The surface is not shocked, but in fact, the inner wave has already turned the sky. Sure enough, Aaliyah didn't let him down, or she didn't give it, or she gave the best.

The supreme commander of the Expeditionary Force means that he can form an army that is completely at his disposal, just like the First Army of the Red Dragon Principality of Prince Gavin Maris, the Second Army of Lacey, and the Third Army of Earl George. .

According to the military practice of the Red State, the smallest tactical unit is the squad, the smallest strategic unit is the war regiment, and the largest strategic unit is the group army.

The group army has the power to attack and occupy an area independently. If Qin Wu dared to come, the only result would be to run away.

Strictly speaking, the political status of Chen Xing, an expeditionary army, is even higher. He is an expeditionary force of the Northern Alliance, not of the Red Dragon Principality. Although they are all under the command of the northern princesses, they have completely different meanings.

The army of the Red Dragon Principality is the Red Dragon Principality first, followed by the Northern Alliance, and the Expeditionary Army is the Princess’s Expeditionary Army.

If this team is pulled up, Chen Xing will be a true leader. As long as the opportunity is ripe, he can form his own country.

But then again, he now has only the establishment and budget, and the team has to pull it up by himself.

The news spread quickly. Before Chen Xing returned to Beiqiao Town, the news of the appointment had spread throughout the Red Dragon Principality.

Xiang Caidie was the first to come. But even if she doesn't come, Chen Xing will go to her.

"Don't think about it now, right?" Xiang Caidie asked, leaning against the table, the plump lines pressed against the edge of the table and sank deeply.

"Does this still need to be said?" Chen Xing put his feet on the table, posing as a big boss.

The expeditionary army has an establishment of 100,000 people, and there is absolutely no worries about position. The regular troops of the North Bridge Regiment, which absorbed more than two thousand people, were a breeze. Incorporated into the expeditionary army, and then rely on the emperor's food.

And in terms of their relationship, the North Bridge Regiment is the direct line of the Expeditionary Army.

No matter how fair the generals are, their troops will be divided into direct and side lines, personal and ordinary soldiers. The balance cannot be completely tilted. Whoever is more intimate and who looks more loyal will get more resources.

"Hua Po wants me to continue to lead the team." Xiang Caidie said.

"She meant to let you follow me?" Chen Xing asked somewhat unexpectedly.

"Hua Po wants me to experience more. Now that the crow market has turned into a business, it is better for me to stay on the battlefield." Xiang Caidie replied.

"Yes." Chen Xing agreed without thinking. Xiang Caidie was originally the head of the North Bridge regiment, responsible for the management of the regular troops, and she would continue to lead it. It couldn't be more appropriate.

"Then you..." Xiang Caidie twisted and asked, "Then what position are you going to give me?"

This is to ask for a position.

"What position do you want?" Chen Xing asked straightforwardly.

"Commander of the Chinese Army." Xiang Caidie said.

The group army is usually divided into the left army, the middle army, the right army, the investigation group, the gendarmerie group, the guards, and the reserve army.

Among them, the left, center and right armies are the main combat troops. Among them, the Chinese army has the largest scale and the largest number. The commander of the Chinese army is almost the second person in the legion.

.

"Well, let me think about it..." Chen Xing groaned.

Xiang Caidie is a quasi-lord-level powerhouse, and the relationship with him is close enough that he can be entrusted with important tasks, but Xiang Caidie is not smart enough. She is a warrior with a simple mind and well-developed limbs. It is okay to lead soldiers to fight. It's not so good.

But then again, this Chinese army commander is actually a puppet, just listen to the highest commander, and he doesn't need to have a head.

The Chinese army usually only enters the field during a decisive battle. At this time, the strategic command is not important anymore.

It is estimated that her proposal was asked about Hua Beidou, and Hua Beidou also made a judgment after weighing the pros and cons.

Xiang Caidie didn't speak, but waited quietly beside her. Chen Xingsi thought about it, although Xiang Caidie was not the most suitable candidate, she finally agreed.

He did this out of many considerations. First of all, Xiang Caidie has the strength of a quasi-lord and can hold a place. At the same time, she also has many years of management experience in large mercenary groups. Don't expect her to be ingenious, but she won't make low-level mistakes.

Secondly, this is to show good wishes to Yeyang Bailiu and Hua Beidou. Although the relationship between him and Yeyang Bailiu need not be mentioned, they are always two different forces and cannot be confused. No matter how good personal personal relationships are, they cannot ignore their respective team interests. Even if Ye Yang Bailiu doesn't care, what about the sisters below her?

The Great Sanctuary of the Iron Sisters is already a major force in the monitor lizard city, and it is necessary to deepen cooperation and seek closer common interests.

"You must ensure execution and absolute loyalty to me." The Supreme Commander made a request to the commander of the Chinese Army, and then the commander of the Chinese Army used various "services" to prove that he was a "obedient boy" and "loyal." Good cadre"...

After Xiang Caidie went back, Chen Xing thought for a whole night, and the next day he called all the senior leaders of the Leiguang Group and the Master Group.

On the Leiguang regiment's side, Huozui, Rat, Pang Li, Gonggong, Iron Cannon, Xiong Ben, these high-levels are all guard-level, and do not need to use hero potions.

On the master team's side, Lao Ji passed away, and Big Cat and Cassie survived fortunately. They are now at the Guardian level. Lin Shiyuan didn't use hero potions, and there was no danger to his life.

Today, there are only more than 150 people left in the Leiguang group, while the master group has only more than 50 people, which adds up to more than 200 people, and most of the rest are struggling.

After a night of thinking, Chen Xing decided to save the two legions. Although it is only a name, it carries the legacy of the predecessors. Once it is broken up and reorganized, it will lose its original strength and heritage.

The Lei Guang regiment maintains the bloodline of Tienuo and Shen Guangming, and the master regiment maintains the bloodline of Chen Xing.

Huozui continued to serve as the deputy commander of the Leiguang regiment, and Rat was the assistant to the regiment. He was free to absorb like-minded newcomers and became the first elite guard in the expeditionary army.

The Guards are the elite combat units in the group army, like the tip of a sword and the cone of an arrow.

Big cat continues to serve as the head of the master group, and Cassie continues to serve as the deputy commander. There are two main ways to supplement personnel. One is to recruit elites from the North Bridge group, and the other is to recruit at the site of the Hanging Skeleton Alliance to ensure the pure blood of the master group. The formation of the expeditionary force is the reconnaissance brigade.

The Investigation Brigade is an intelligence agency in the group army, responsible for investigations, assassinations, and sneak attacks.

Jianyue Canglian is in charge of the guard regiment, and the main personnel are recruited from Lanhua Town to be responsible for the daily security work of the command department.

The second group of people who came to the door were the family of the Gray Horned City clans headed by Ye Yang Zhengxiong.

"I am happy to hear that my son-in-law has been promoted, and I am here to congratulate you." "Congratulations, Mrs. Chen, from now on the ocean will leap with fish, and the sky will be high!"

"I said before, Da Chen is very popular and he is definitely not a thing in the pool." "Master Chen is soaring into the sky, his great cause can be accomplished!"

After some flattering, it came to the topic.

"It's all my own family, I won't be circumspect with you." Ye Yang Zhengxiong said bluntly, "We are here this time to get a gendarme's errand under the hands of the adults..."

In the group army, the gendarmerie has two main functions, one is to supervise the war, and the other is to deduct military pay. To sum up in a word, it is a high status and a thick oil and water.

Not to mention this, the main role of the gendarmerie. The deduction of military pay is the practice of the Red Army, because the high-level military pay is calculated according to the head and position and is directly sent to the soldiers for the purpose of treating them equally.

But in fact, the direct line and the side line, the elite troops, the main force, and the logistics unit all face different dangers and pressures, and the treatment is obviously different. It is impossible to be completely fair, so there is a deduction. The practice of military pay.

It is a dirty job for the military police to operate on his own people inside. To be honest, Chen Xing didn't plan to let his direct troops do such errands.

Obviously, doing dirty work will affect combat effectiveness.

However, the job of the military police is indeed suitable for family members.

The biggest difficulty for the military police is that they must do dirty work and have a bottom line. You have to stab yourself, but also have the most basic sense of glory. You can't get dirty to the end, and there is no lower limit.

People who have experienced officialdom are most suitable for this. Strong execution, unscrupulous, but self-conscious

He has a firm stand on the bottom line of all right and wrong.

Aristocratic families are the vested interests of the country, and the interests of the country are closely related to their interests. All things are prosperous, and all things are lost.

In essence, how can one's own wool cut their own leek? Therefore, their position is stronger than that of the bottom of society.

Chen Xing did not think long before agreeing to Ye Yang Zhengxiong’s request and appointed him as the highest person in charge of the Military Police Headquarters of the Expeditionary Army, the Inspector General of the Military Police. .

"My son-in-law, we are full of talents in Grayhorn City, can we arrange another legion commander..."

"Don't think about it!"

Ye Yang Zhengxiong was rejected by Chen Xing before he finished speaking. The Chinese army commander Xiang Caidie, the gendarmerie inspector general Ye Yang Zhengxiong, and another commander, the expeditionary army will be named Ye Yang.

Not to mention internal issues, he can't give all of his duties to his own people, he still needs to win over other forces. Of course, Ye Yang Zhengxiong can assemble 100,000 people for him, but the problem is that the total number of the family troops of the seven gate lords in Grayhorn City is less than 20,000, and it is impossible to give him all.

It is almost enough to mobilize a military police force of about 3,000 people.

In this way, the basic framework of the expeditionary force was established, and all that was left was to draw in the forces of all parties and strengthen the team.

Since Aaliyah appointed Chen Xing as the supreme commander of the Expeditionary Army, a new undercurrent has appeared in the undercurrent of the powerful circle of Monitor Lizard City. This undercurrent is very obvious, almost gushing out of the sea to become a torrent.

This afternoon, the eldest princess Lacey Maris invited the eldest prince Gavin Maris for afternoon tea.

In the afternoon sunshine, the royal garden is quiet and elegant, with fragrant flowers and plants, and a gentle breeze.

"My dear sister, why are you so leisurely and elegant today, don't you need to accompany your adult?" Gavin asked with a chuckle.

"Gavin Maris, we must work together on this matter, otherwise, the monitor lizard city will have the surname Chen in the near future!" Lacey tensed her face, almost gritted her teeth and said these words.

"Relax, my dear sister. It's just a low-level kid who is on the upper hand by luck. He can't make much waves. As the saying goes, good luck can't always happen. I believe that in the near future, he will fall heavily. His face was bruised and swollen from the fall." Gavin said disapprovingly.

"You'd better go back and listen to your eagle owl's opinion." Lacey dropped a word and left. In her eyes, the only advantage of her dull brother is that she has an eagle owl.

It didn't take long for Gavin Maris to pass on the words of his elder sister to Ricardo.

"The monitor lizard city is not surnamed Chen. A little hamster that does not have a lord level, only with the favor of that adult, can never turn the sky, let alone shake the millennium foundation of the Maris family." Ricardo concluded. "The princess should be too worried."

"Let me just say it, my self-righteous sister, I have been making fuss since I was a child." Gavin laughed. All along, Lacey has been his biggest competitor. Fortunately, he was the first heir to the Red Dragon Throne, and he was assisted by Ricardo, which was not covered by the halo of Princess Qingcheng.

"But..." Ricardo groaned, "In this matter, we should indeed join hands with the princess."

"Even if the possibility is small, it must be killed in the cradle."

"This person has a low status and unstable foundation. We only need to spend a small amount of energy to make it difficult for him to move in the monitor lizard city."

"It makes sense." Gavin spread his hands, "Then it's such a happy decision."

In the next few days, no new force came to visit Chen Xing, except for the family of the North Bridge Group and Gray Point City.

Chen Xing went to the city to inquire about it, and when he came back, his whole body was not good.

There are three main points about his negative/news.

The first point is that he was born as a low-level mercenary and had not attended any formal military academy. It is estimated that he did not even have a primary school diploma. It was completely led by a wild road, and it was able to successfully attack the Red Rock Mountains. It was a blind cat and a dead mouse. To count on him to win the battle, it is better to count on the Silver Claw Principality to surrender.

The second point is that there is no money, no power, no strength, and it's all about holding the thighs.

The third point is the dual identities of the nouveau riche and the country aristocracy, the structure is low, and the vision is short-sighted. The deduction of military pay is definitely more serious than that of ordinary troops.

Various tabloids and magazines have fabricated a lot of stories about him out of thin air. The dirty water is all over the world. He is almost like Huang Shiren and Zhou Papi, and he wants to vomit blood.

In the face of all kinds of deliberate slander, Chen Xing could not say anything. It is impossible for everyone to clarify, and others may not believe it after clarifying. His foundation is too weak, his reputation is too low, and he can't change the reputation.

Although difficult, things are still to be done and cannot be easily defeated.

He pondered for a whole night, and finally found a way out of his past business experience that was not a solution.

At the moment, if you want to recruit people, you can only follow the MLM routines and start with acquaintances...
