  Chapter 100 99. Suldak Knight

   I don't know when it started, Suldak, the captain of the second squadron of the 4th Battalion of the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment, seemed to have become Baron Sidney's most capable subordinate.

   Whenever the regiment headquarters orders some important tasks, Baron Sidney will first think of letting the second team carry out them. The main reason is that every time Captain Suldak can perform the tasks beautifully.

The secret post on the west side of the camp was destroyed by evil spirits. This mistake should have been discovered after the camp was attacked, but it was precisely the negligence of the young noble officers in the war room that caused the second batch of infantry soldiers who went to change the guard to be destroyed by evil spirits. Ghost slaughter, if the second squad of the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment hadn't acted vigilantly, escaped the ambush of the evil ghost squad, and sent the information back to the camp in time, I am afraid that some squads on duty will repeat the same mistakes.

  The expeditionary force not only suffered some losses for this, but also made the officers in the war room of the military headquarters lose face.

  Although one of the infantry squads killed in battle came from the 57th Regiment, this did not prevent Earl Mond Goss from commending Baron Sidney.

Baron Sidney is in a good mood. Earl Mond Goss promised to help him raise his title from the third-class baron to the first-class baron after this war of planes. For Baron Sidney, it is considered to be a two-level promotion. He managed to keep the honor of the family. Even if he had a son who would do nothing in the future, he would at least have to wait for his grandson to inherit the title before he would become a third-class baron.

On the square table in the military tent were steaming hot stew and blood-thick wine. Baron Sidney sat on a chair and ate with a pair of knives and forks in his hand. A stream of fat dripped down the corner of his mouth. He tore a piece of white bread from the basket and stuffed it into his mouth, and drank the last bit of wine from his glass.

  Suldak sat across from him somewhat cautiously, holding a silver cup in his hand. He didn't know whether he should drink the last sip of wine in time, or save it until the end.

Baron Sidney signaled the servants around him to fill Suldak's glass with wine, and then he took a piece of ice from the ice bucket and threw it into his glass. With a noble arrogance on his face, he spoke to Suldak Ke said: "This is the red wine brought over from Mesvendo in Hailansa City. Only by adding ice cubes can you taste the sweetness of the bitter black grapes there. You can drink another glass!"

  Baron Sidney asked the servant to add some stew to Suldak's plate, then put down the knife and fork in his hand, and said to Suldak with a smile:

   "Your team has performed well recently..."

   Regarding this point, Suldak was very clear in his heart. Otherwise, Baron Sidney would not have invited him to dinner. It is rare for an ordinary squad leader to have such an honor.

   "What are your plans for the future, I mean you can't be a heavy infantry soldier for the rest of your life!" Baron Sidney took a glass of water handed over by his servant, took a sip, and said.

  Suldak thought about it for a while, and felt that there was nothing wrong with retiring, and he needed the signature of Baron Sidney on his application for retirement, so he said:

   "Master Sidney, I have two more months, and I want to go back to Hailansa after my military service expires!"

   Baron Sidney showed some surprise in his eyes. He didn't expect Suldak to be a veteran of the four-year military service, and he was about to retire at this time.

If it was two months ago, Sidney might not have thought about this kind of thing. Now that the military service expires, there is nothing to say. He will put his seal on the application for retirement and wait for the logistics department to arrange to return to Bay. Nasdaq.

   But now, Sidney found that Suldak was actually a pretty good team leader, and he was in need of such a young and capable general, so Baron Sidney said to Suldak:

"So... do you have any idea to continue serving for the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment? The regiment just lacks young fighters like you with both strength and wisdom. If you are willing to stay, you will be the deputy squadron leader of the Sixth Squadron. After two months of adapting to the position, when Old York expires and retires, I will recommend you to Earl Mond Goss as the captain of the sixth squadron."

  Suldak never thought that Baron Sidney would actually want to promote himself again after he was promoted to be the squad leader for more than a month.

  In the heavy armored infantry regiment, the treatment and status of the squadron leader and the squad leader are very different.

   First of all, there is the issue of identity. The squad leader only selects some soldiers with better abilities from the ordinary soldiers of the heavy armored infantry regiment. That is to say, the squad leader is still just an ordinary soldier, but the salary has been improved. But squadron leaders can't be promoted at will, and those who can become squadron leaders basically have the status of knights.

It is not easy to become a knight. First, a nobleman needs to write a letter of recommendation to the local consul. Of course, this nobleman only has the right to recommend. This reserve knight undergoes various assessments, and he is considered a reserve knight if he passes all the assessments.

  Becoming a knight requires a quota. Only nobles above the earl have the right to entrust knights.

  Generally speaking, an earl only has the authority to lead a knight squad, while a marquis can lead a knight order.

  Suldak wants to become a true knight. In addition to passing the necessary assessments, he must also obtain a limited number of places from Earl Mond Goss, and also have a fief of his own.

  Count Mond Goss wanted to make Suldak a knight, and he paid not only a limited number of places, but also a fief.

The Fifty-seventh Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment has five brigades, and each brigade has five squadrons. Each squadron leader is actually a knight, but the only knights in the infantry regiment that belong to Earl Mond Goss twelve.

These twelve knights are distributed in the first squadron, the second squadron and the fourth squadron. The knight squadron leaders in the rest of the brigade are from the other two noble earls in Hailansa City. These twelve knights are considered Mond. .The Earl of Goss' confidant.

   Baron Sidney certainly has no right to promote Suldak to squadron leader.

  If he wants to promote Suldak to be the squadron leader, he needs to obtain a knight place from Earl Mond Goss.

   Baron Sidney made such a promise to Suldak, at least he should have obtained the approval of Mond Goss.

  This sudden news completely disrupted Suldak's plan.

  Suldak stood up at a loss, and said earnestly to Baron Sidney:

   "Master Sidney, can you let me think about it?"

   Seeing that Suldak was not stunned by this great event, Baron Sidney was a little surprised. He took a serious look at Suldak and said:

   "Of course, if you think about it, you can come to me anytime!"

  …

  He Boqiang never thought that Baron Sidney would be appreciated by the second team for doing so many things recently.

As a result, the second team was involved. There is no doubt that Suldak was the biggest beneficiary. This time, no one thought that Suldak would be recommended as the squadron leader. But not often.

  Do the soldiers in the Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment all know that the squadron leaders in the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment are appointed by Earl Mond Goss himself.

  The soldiers of the second team felt a little inconceivable when they heard that Baron Sidney wanted to promote Suldak.

  Augustus, Bearded Beard, Red Sox, Billy and others circled around asking questions. Augustus said to Suldak:

   "Squadron leader? I heard that soldiers who can become squadron leaders have the opportunity to study at the Knight Academy. So, Suldak, you may be about to become a knight?"

  Although he didn't know how credible Baron Sidney's words were, Suldak still nodded.

   It seems that the identity of a knight is very attractive to Suldak, at least it is a change of identity for him.

The bearded Cagle said: "Although knights can't be regarded as nobles, at least Earl Mond Goss will reward you with a fief. A piece of land that belongs to you. You don't need to pay taxes to others. All the output It's all yours."

  Red Sox also said: "And I heard that knights also have the right of inheritance..."
