Lord of Hyranza

Chapter 100 99. Knights of Surdak
I don't know when it started, Suldak, the captain of the second squadron of the fourth battalion of the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment, seemed to have become Baron Sidney's most capable subordinate.

Whenever there is some important task assigned by the regiment, Baron Sidney will first think of letting the second team perform it, the main reason is that every time Captain Surdak can do the task 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 massacre, 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.

This expedition not only suffered some losses, but also made the officers in the war room of the military lose face.

Although one of the infantry squads that died in the 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 upgrade his title from the third baron to the first baron after this plane war. For Baron Sidney, two ranks in a row are considered to be Having successfully preserved the honor of the family, even if he gave birth to a son in the future, he would at least have to wait for his grandson to inherit the title before becoming a third-class baron.

On the square table in the tent, there was steaming stew and wine thick as blood. Baron Sidney sat on a chair with a knife and fork in his hand and ate with relish. A grease dripped down the corner of his mouth. Tear a loaf of white bread from the basket and stuff it in his mouth, then drank the last bit of wine from the glass.

Surdak sat shyly across from him, holding a silver cup in his hand. He didn't know whether to drink the last sip of wine in time or leave it to the end.

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

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

"Your team has performed well recently..."

About this, Surdak is very clear in his heart, otherwise Baron Sidney would not invite him to dinner, which is rare for an ordinary captain to have such an honor.

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

Suldak thought about it for a while, and felt that there was nothing wrong with retiring, and he also needed the signature of Baron Sidney on his retirement application, so he said:
"Lord Sidney, I have two more months. After the military service expires, I want to go back to Hailanza!"

Baron Sidney showed some surprise in his eyes. He did not expect that Surdak was already a four-year-old veteran, 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. Since the military service expires, he has nothing to say. He stamped his own seal on the retirement application and waited for the logistics department to make a unified arrangement to return to Beibei. Na province.

But now, Sidney found that Surdak was actually a pretty good captain, and he was in need of such a young and capable person, so Baron Sidney said to Surdak:
"Then... do you have any idea to continue to serve in the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment? The regiment just lacks young fighters like you who have both strength and wisdom. If you are willing to stay, you will be the deputy squadron leader of the [-]th Squadron After two months of adaptation, I will recommend you to Earl Mond Goss as the captain of the Sixth Squadron when Old York expires and retires."

Surdak had never thought that Baron Sidney would actually want to promote himself again more than a month after being promoted to captain.

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

The first is the issue of identity. The squad leader just selects some soldiers with better abilities from among the ordinary soldiers of the heavy armored infantry regiment, which means that the squad leader is still just an ordinary soldier, but the treatment has been improved.But the squadron leader is not free to be promoted, 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, the noble only has the right to recommend. This reserve knight goes through various assessments, and he is considered a reserve knight only if he passes all the assessments.

To be a knight requires a place.Only nobles above the count have the power to assign knights.

Generally speaking, an earl has only the right to lead a squad of knights, while a marquis can lead a knight.

If Surdak wanted to become a real knight, in addition to passing the necessary examinations, he had to obtain a limited number of places from Earl Mond Goss, and also have a fief of his own.

Earl Mond Goss wanted to make Surdak a knight, not only for a limited number of places, but also for a fief.

The 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment has a total of five brigades, and each brigade has five squadrons. Each squadron leader is actually a knight, but there are only twelve knights in the infantry regiment who really belong to Earl Mond Goss. bit.

The twelve knights are distributed in the first team, the second team and the fourth team. The captains of the knight squadrons in the other battalions are from the other two noble counts of Hailanza City. These twelve knights are considered Mond .A close associate of Earl Goss.

Baron Sidney certainly did not have the right to promote Surdak to squadron commander.

If he wants to promote Surdak to be the squadron commander, he needs to obtain a knight position from Count Mond Goss.

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

This sudden news completely disrupted Surdak's plans.

Surdak stood up bewildered and said earnestly to Baron Sidney:
"Lord Sidney, can I think about it?"

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

"Of course, you can find me anytime you want!"

……

He Boqiang never imagined that the second team had done so many things recently that Baron Sidney would be highly appreciated.

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. This kind of thing is not possible in the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Not often.

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

The soldiers of the second squad were a little surprised when they heard that Baron Sidney was going to promote Surdak.

Augustus, Bearded, Red Socks, and Billy gathered around asking questions, and Augustus said to Surdak:

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

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

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

Bearded Cagle said: "Although a knight can't be considered a noble, at least Count Mond Goss will give you a piece of land. A piece of land 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 the knights also have the right to inherit..."
