My profession panel inspires loyalty.

Judging from the Red Heart Society's attacks on the Sunset Empire's Abyss Army, this has now fully formed a strategic strike system.

Is the Red Heart Society's military technology really that advanced?

[Then why do we still need to spend money to purchase production machine tools for small, medium, and various large military weapons from the United States?]

Compared to the advanced technology of specialized military weaponry, aren't these just trivial matters?

However, considering that the Red Heart Society had invented the Red Heart Armor, a top-tier technological achievement, they felt it was quite normal for the Red Heart Society's research department to be able to develop such specialized military weaponry.

As for the remarkably similar system structures of the two countries?

[It can only be said that true scientific geniuses share a special connection in certain areas!]

The world has underestimated the Red Heart Society's scientific research capabilities. The United States military suspects that an extremely powerful military force is hidden within the Red Heart Society.

Based on this speculation, the United States' attitude towards the Red Heart Society also underwent a significant change.

Even regarding the recent near-delinquency of the Red Heart Society's loan, the United States has not pressed them for action.

That kind of interest rate might be high for other countries, but for the Red Heart Society, it's nothing.

Putting everything else aside, if the Red Heart Society were to share its special military weaponry strike data and some cutting-edge technologies with the United States, the United States could waive interest on the Red Heart Society's investment and even reduce a portion of the principal.

Of course, if the Red Heart Society is unable to repay its debts, then the United States will have to change its tune.

As lending nations, their favorite practice is to increase loan limits for countries that don't lack money, while withdrawing loans from countries that do, using some inexplicable reason.

Just in case!

[If they're so short of money, why not withdraw the loans immediately? Are they just going to wait for the borrower to default?]

[What if the country goes bankrupt, or there's a change of regime? Wouldn't this money be completely wasted?]

[If a country is weak and has poor military capabilities, then the United States can still use its army to force the other party to repay the debt.]

However, if they encounter powerful nations like the White Eagle Empire, the Winter Empire, or the Red Heart Society, they'll likely find themselves in a difficult wrangling session.

[Generally, the President of the United States maintains that as long as the other party acknowledges that they borrowed the money, it's acceptable.]

Even if they don't admit it, they must hold out for two years, until the next Chief of Staff takes office.

Otherwise, the existence of such a massive and unsustainable debt during his term would have a significant negative impact on him.

[In May of the 134th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, you will disband and reorganize all the Federation warbands that have joined you, incorporating them into the Guardian Warband's organization.]

[At the same time, you selected a large number of core elites from the Guardian Legion to form a new Guardian Legion together with these Federation-numbered Legion members.]

While you will treat all loyal soldiers equally, the key issue is that a large number of high-ranking officers in the incoming numbered chapters have not yet pledged their loyalty to you.

[Those at the bottom of the numbered battle groups mostly come from ordinary or middle-class backgrounds.]

When the Red Heart Society provides them with resources and a future that transcends social classes, they will actively integrate into the Red Heart Society and even be very enthusiastic about activities such as the cultivation technique discussion meetings.

[Most of the high-ranking members of the numbered battle groups come from aristocratic families.]

[Even within these federally numbered battle groups, there are many scions of prominent families from various provinces.]

In a sense, their families were destroyed by the Red Heart Society, and their relatives and friends died in the Red Heart Society's trials.

The fact that they didn't assassinate you while their eyes were bloodshot is already an extremely restrained result.

As for offering my loyalty to you?

This estimation process will be extremely lengthy.

[If it weren't for the Federation's high command targeting numbered battle groups during the war, especially those with leaders from local powerful families, and even threatening the lives of all members of those groups, they probably wouldn't have come to join the Red Heart Society.]

A wise bird chooses its tree to perch on, and this is especially true for scions of noble families.

What does it mean to serve the one who killed your father?

[As long as the other party can bring me greater benefits and advantages, allow me to advance my professional level, and ensure the survival of myself and my descendants, then I am perfectly willing to recognize them as my godfather, provided they are willing.]

[If the offer is high enough, changing one's surname isn't out of the question.]

[Serving someone and being loyal are not the same thing.]

[The reason they serve the Red Heart Society is solely because the Red Heart Society holds political power.]

[If Chixin falls into decline in the future, they will immediately rebel.]

A wise bird will choose its tree to perch on once, and then it will choose it countless times.

You understand these things in your heart.

[But we are currently in the process of building up our nation during a national war, and the second Anti-Red Heart Federation has already formed, even on a larger scale than the last one.]

Therefore, if the high-ranking members of those factions are pragmatic, you will detain them for a while.

This period is also the last chance you give the other person to survive.

After all, for an organization, especially a purely violent one like a warband, maintaining the purity of the team is essential!

[In the same month, you continued to expand the Red Heart Army.]

With the continuous expansion of the Red Heart Army and the Guardian Corps, the Red Heart Society is now undoubtedly the purest military-economic entity in the world.

[With the explosive growth of the military, the Red Heart Society will once again face a fiscal deficit.]

[Therefore, you issued three-year national bonds to the entire Red Heart Society.]

The interest rate on government bonds wasn't high, but members of the Red Heart Society were extremely enthusiastic after receiving the news.

War is ultimately about the economy!

[Especially in the provinces recently recaptured by the Red Heart Society, the people there were even more enthusiastic than the members of the Red Heart Society themselves.]

After the Red Heart Society recovered the area, they brought them ample supplies, ensuring they had enough to eat and drink, and even offered them highly paid jobs.

Even an ordinary person could easily afford a personal flying vehicle outright within a year, and a 200-square-meter apartment within three years.

The so-called entrance fee has also been cancelled for the instance halls within the jurisdiction of the Red Heart Society.

The various loan sharks that had been lurking over cities all vanished without a trace.

They no longer have to worry about being targeted by debt collectors while walking down the street, then having their organs and souls harvested under the cover of darkness.

This experience of being on the brink of death has transformed into a daily joyful time spent together as a family, eating and playing together.

The Red Heart Society brought them a happy life, so they wanted to give back to the Red Heart Society.

[Don't even mention buying government bonds, they'd be willing to donate all their wages after deducting normal expenses!]

[But will Chixin actually do this? If so, what's the point of the high-welfare, high-paying jobs he sets up for his subordinates?]

If those with a heart of gold lead the way in exploitation, then those below will treat the lower classes as less than human.

Within an hour, the first batch of treasury bonds issued by the Red Heart Association to all provinces was sold out.

In July of the 134th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, the second anti-Red Heart Alliance army assembled and launched an attack from the center of the Federation.

The first offensive was thwarted only by the protection of the Red Heart Army and the Red Heart Battle Group.

[During this offensive, the Peacock Empire's lizard legions shocked the Red Heart Society.]

The Sunset Empire, through its transformation of the Abyss, has made the Abyss Army obey its commands.

How did the Peacock Empire manage to subdue the Abyssal Lizard race?

You'll understand soon enough.

[It turns out that the soldiers of the Peacock Empire and the Abyss Lizards develop a bond through reproduction.]

This shocking event completely shattered the worldview of the Red Heart Army soldiers.

【what? 】

If the abyssal lizards could transform into human form, then they wouldn't say anything.

[Completely bestial, exuding an extreme stench, with mouths full of fangs and that foul smell—how did they manage to kiss him?]

Even more shockingly, there were instances of three or four Peacock Empire soldiers serving a single abyssal lizard.

Indeed, in the race to shock the world, the Peacock Empire truly lives up to its reputation.

In September of the 134th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, the Winter Empire, seeing that its siege was proving unsuccessful, revealed its trump card: the Frost Guard Army.

This army has only 30,000 soldiers, but each one exudes an extremely powerful icy force.

[In the clash between the two sides, the immense power unleashed by the Frost Guardians instantly shocked the Crimson Heart Army.]

The formidable defensive power, as solid as millennia-old ice, and its remarkable immunity to attacks from over a dozen escort regiments, shook the entire Red Heart Army.

Led by the garrison, millions of Winter Empire troops launched an assault on the Winter Defense Line.

All attacks, all military force, and all kinds of magical damage were withstood by the guards.

Even as the defending forces approached the Winter's Edge, the sheer force of their attack caused the towering defenses to tremble slightly.

This elite army dispatched by the Winter Empire instantly reversed the tide of the war.

After receiving Lin Xue's plea for help, you dispatched the Six Red Hearts Army Group and fifteen Guard Regiments to the southern border defense line for support.

But no sooner had the reinforcements left than you were subjected to a fierce attack on the main battlefield.

This military offensive is far greater than any previous one.

[You even saw the banner of the White Eagle Royal Family during the Second Anti-Red Heart Alliance.]

The Federation, through unknown means and under unknown conditions, persuaded the White Eagle Emperor, who had consolidated imperial power.

[This man, once your close stock-trading buddy, partner in fleecing the world's retail investors, a major contributor to the first major defeat of the Red Heart Alliance, and the first investor in the Red Heart Society's rise, now stands on the opposite side of the Red Heart Society.]

This time, they even sent their own heir: the Crown Prince of the White Eagle Empire.

The significant support from the White Eagle Empire greatly boosted the morale of the entire Second Allied Forces.

[At the same time, you received a message from the White Eagle Emperor.]

I apologize, but the demise of the Red Heart Society aligns better with the White Eagle Empire's national strategic considerations.

But rest assured, I have dispatched my trusted ministers.

Even if the Red Heart Society is completely wiped out this time, I have the ability to protect you.

Don't worry, as long as you're not the founder of the Red Heart Society, and as long as you don't have an organization called the Red Heart Society under your command, we'll still be the best of friends in the world.

You didn't pay much attention to the White Eagle Emperor's apology and overtures.

[After all, from the moment they consolidated imperial power, you were already prepared to go to war with the White Eagle Empire.]

All personal feelings must give way to national interests!

Chapter 119 The nobles have only lost their lives, but we have gained freedom (6k)

In October of the 134th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, the White Eagle Royal Army displayed a power on the battlefield that exceeded the Red Heart Army's expectations.

[The Red Heart Army initially believed that the enemy was no different from the previous White Eagle Empire army; if so, the only differences would be in equipment and the level of the professionals.]

However, when war broke out, the order and faith displayed by the White Eagle royal army on the battlefield completely overwhelmed the other soldiers of the Allied forces.

Under these circumstances, only the elite Third Army of the military superpower, the Kingdom of Farah, could barely compare to the White Eagle Royal Army.

Their unwavering faith, their fearless courage in battle, and their willingness to drag the enemy down with them even in death—all these qualities evoked a sense of familiarity in the Red Heart Army.

[Even in the ensuing clashes, the Crimson Heart Army was surprised to discover that the soldiers of the White Eagle Royal Army also possessed cultivation techniques.]

[It seems the Red Heart Army's formidable fighting prowess on the battlefield has indeed astonished the White Eagle Emperor.]

Therefore, when the White Eagle Emperor was building his own elite force, he referenced the Red Heart Army's training methods and resource allocation.

For aristocratic families, mastering cultivation techniques is essential.

[However, for the royal family, it's simpler to spread the techniques to their elite troops, allowing them to achieve merit on the front lines and then directly promote them to nobility.]

[Anyway, the White Eagle Empire is filled with powerful families, so having a few more wouldn't affect the White Eagle royal family at all.]

[Especially those newly nobles who rose to power through military merit were staunch royalists.]

[After all, they were promoted by the White Eagle Emperor, so they would naturally be extremely loyal to him.]

Under these circumstances, the White Eagle Emperor would certainly not be stingy with his rewards in terms of cultivation techniques.

The only difference between the White Eagle Royal Army and the Red Heart Army now lies in their shared beliefs.

Thus, the Red Heart Army suffered its most devastating losses in recent years.
