German Eagle: Steel and Magic

Chapter 56 Silver Wing Medal
"It's not wrong, I want to recruit him into the Imperial Military Academy. According to the regulations of the Imperial Military Academy's officer class, he will be promoted to a higher rank after graduation, which means that he will become a captain, which is completely in line with the requirements of a squadron leader." Require."

"Ha, so I was talking too much, you are very optimistic about him."

Hollinger also laughed. He put the cigar aside and picked up Carl's information again.

"By the way, I remember that the Imperial Military Academy has recently been engaged in research on new vehicles, and it seems that they have made good progress. If they can be officially quoted, these mobile squadrons will have better combat effectiveness." Clayton remembered another one thing.

"You need to coordinate it yourself, but I heard that although a breakthrough has been made in the research and development of new vehicles, the requirements for mages are extremely strict, and it is not so easy to operate."

Hollinger said indifferently, his eyes stayed on Carl's record, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

He began to pay attention to this rising star, as long as he didn't die young, the future of this child would be so terrifying.

"At the beginning of next month, I will go to Heidelberg, and I will go to them to negotiate." Clayton saw Hollinger's smile and was a little surprised.

It is extremely harsh and rare for a big boss to pay attention, but this also made Clayton thankful that his vision at that time was so precise.

An ordinary student at the Parisino Academy, after more than a year of experience, he became one of the famous aviation mages on the front lines of the German Empire.

No matter how this kind of thing sounds like a legend, it has been passed down for a long time.

At this time, Karl on the Western Front was following the Brandenburg Division to the rear to rest, and unexpectedly, he was spotted by a big man, although it was only a physical attraction.

At dawn, the vanguard of the Brandenburg Division had reached the outskirts of Saarbrücken.

They first simply stopped and repaired, then set up tents, arranged air defense positions, erected fences and watchtowers.

The one-month rest period has come, and the hard days are over.

Karl has been fighting continuously for more than two months. Their unit has experienced too much, and their personnel have even been greatly reduced due to some offensive operations. Fortunately, the headquarters is humane.

Three reserve divisions replaced the meritorious Eagle Squad, and they finally ushered in their rest day.

Due to the previous diplomatic dispute, Carl was ordered off the field for the time being, and his entire squad was put on standby by the way.Watching the other members of the 503 brigade flying around, Karl had a tough fight with the captain of the Ruhr brigade.

But Karl's real thought was that he was very happy with this order.Nobody likes the thrill of bullets flying past their heads, but he's going to play a fanatical patriot.

When he was arguing with Captain Ruhr, the muscles on his face were frantically suppressed and ready to jump.

By the way, Karl has made enough meritorious deeds, which is impossible for many aviation mages to achieve until the end of the war.

In the fierce battle of more than two months, Karl alone shot down 37 Frankish aviation wizards, destroyed 26 artillery and machine gun positions, 4 tanks, and several other uncountable results.

Karl made his name famous, not only the Brandenburg Division, nor the Western Front, but the entire German Empire, and everyone knew about this magic young general.

But now the much-anticipated trump card is sleeping soundly in the tent.On the first day out of the front line, he did nothing and slept all the time.

……

"Congratulations, you have become the seven recipients of the Silver Wing Medal in the history of the empire."

The people in the camp surrounded Karl in a circle, and an old man was holding a Silver Wing Medal in his hand.

All of a sudden, everyone applauded, and all this seemed very lively.Karl first saluted the old man, and then saluted all his comrades.

The German Empire attaches great importance to honor, and Hof is a logistics soldier, and he has no major achievements, so we will talk about it separately.

In addition to some commemorative medals, a total of seven valuable medals have been designed.

They are the Silver Cross, Silver Wings, Iron Cross, Iron Heart, Bronze Cross, Order of the Oak and Medal of Courage.

The Silver Cross is the highest honor award, and all those who can get this medal are those who have made major contributions and are famous for thousands of years.Usually, they are some famous generals, or top talents in various fields.

Karl can understand it very well, because this kind of person must be a famous person in the textbook and has a statue early in his previous life.

The difficulty of obtaining this medal has made it so far a total of fourteen.

It needs to be presented by the Cabinet, approved by Parliament, and agreed by His Majesty the Emperor.

This also made every award receiving scene a national prosperity. When the awards were distributed last time, Carl's father did not catch up, which also became a regret in his heart.

The next level of the Silver Cross is the Silver Wing and the Iron Cross.

The Silver Wing Medal is not like a low-end Silver Cross, uh...it seems to be true.They are usually used to reward those who have made outstanding contributions, but they are not so cumbersome and high-end. They only need to be reported to the parliament by the cabinet and approved by the parliament.

Although it is a low-profile version of the Silver Cross, there are only 57 of them until Karl, and it has been 200 years since its establishment. In terms of value alone, it is even far higher than Karl's young eagle command knife.

The difference between the Iron Cross and the Silver Cross is the crowd. They are specially issued to the army, and they are exclusive to soldiers and a very high honor.Those who can have this thing will receive special military allowances until they enter the underworld.Properly SVIP in the army.

A little lower is the Iron Heart Medal and the Bronze Cross Medal.

Most of the winners of the Iron Heart Medal are martyrs who died for the country, and few people can get it alive.So some people like to ridicule this medal as the "coffin medal".

The Bronze Cross is also an honor for soldiers, and it also has a lifetime subsidy, but the subsidy is a little lower than that of the Iron Cross, and it is considered an ordinary VIP.

Finally, the Order of the Oak and the Medal of Courage.

The audience of the former is social workers, referred to as the involution certificate or the great injustice certificate.The latter's courage is aimed at soldiers, and it can be regarded as the bottom of the medal... a consolation prize?

Of course, if you want to be promoted, it will still play a role in adding points.

By the way, all medals can be awarded repeatedly.

However, only one allowance can be received, which makes it a bit embarrassing for those who already have the Iron Cross to get the Bronze Cross.

It is definitely not possible to look down upon, but you will lose a lot of happiness.

"But why is it that I was given the Silver Wing Medal? As a soldier, it is more reasonable to be given the Iron Cross Medal. Is it to save allowances?"

Karl thinks at least it shouldn't, no matter how tense the war is, it won't be enough to deduct a little hero's allowance, but rewarding a Silver Wing Medal is also good, but it's just a bit inconsistent.

And the person who awarded him the medal was that person. Karl looked at the old man opposite, Vesto von Rajelf, the current Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of the German Empire, and he came forward to award the medal. The purpose is self-evident.

In fact, there is a reason for the award of the Silver Wing Medal. If it is the Iron Cross Medal, it shows from the side that Karl is an eight-year-old soldier who was asked by the country to join the war.

But if it is the Silver Wing Medal, this kind of award that is not a military medal shows that Karl is not a young soldier who was conscripted, but a patriotic genius boy who couldn't bear to see the country suffer and volunteered to join the army.

I even want to slap Frank in the face severely, because the argument there is that there is no one in Germany, and they actually formed a death squad, which is still the juvenile plus version.Come on, here are patriotic youths, the German Empire didn't have any death squads.
