Rise of the Empire Total War

Nord City New Town, Nord Royal Military Academy.

"get out of class is over."

"goodbye teacher."

Listening to the unanimous words of the students, the teacher Aleman nodded in satisfaction, picked up his personal belongings and walked out of the classroom. He has been an instructor since the establishment of the military academy, and he has graduated batch after batch of outstanding students, covering the four legions of the kingdom, which has won him great honor.

If anyone is the most proud student of Alamein, it must be Richard Bono, who was canonized by His Majesty the King as the Duke of Bonia, and Ronald, the Duke of Balaria. They joined forces to conquer He is a well-deserved national hero because he won the alliance between the Oboniyans and the Balarias and obtained a lot of wealth for the country.

Thinking of the local specialties that the two students gave him, Aleman couldn't help showing a smile on his face. People passing by him were surprised by his smile, and then greeted him with respect.

Everywhere in the Royal Military Academy, you can see garrison troops wearing military uniforms carrying flintlock guns and patrolling with regular steps. Because this is the heart of the kingdom, the garrison troops only wear standard military uniforms, and there is no extra layer inside for defense. Arrow's chain mail, and their military caps are still the original tall military caps. Like the garrison troops, the city defense troops of Nord City did not change their chain armor-to be precise, the city defense troops of each city did not change their clothes. They are no different from the field army in the main battle position. In addition to arresting criminals in the city, there is only the duty to eliminate robbers (even though robbers are very few and can only be seen in those newly conquered areas).

At this moment, Aleman saw a few people walking in from the school gate. With sharp eyes, he saw that the leader was a middle-aged man in casual clothes, followed by several soldiers in military uniforms. It's not something that ordinary soldiers can have. After thinking about it, he immediately got the answer - it was clearly the clothes of the Imperial Guard.

He didn't go up to say hello, but watched Richard and his party go to the principal's office, and then walked to the next classroom without haste.

The headmaster of this Royal Military Academy is Charles, the military chief. Richard was supposed to be the headmaster himself, but after thinking about it, he refused. He directly asked Charles to be the headmaster. , Let every batch of graduates become his disciples.

It is impossible to become a disciple of the emperor, so it is also possible to become a disciple of the military chief. This is the common thinking of the students.

Although he was designated as the principal of the Royal Military Academy, Charles did not stay on this campus all the time. As the Duke of Sauron, he naturally had to stay in his fief for a long time. Decheng - Charles' son has been born, and Richard cannot bear to keep his son from his father's love for a long time.

Cough cough, pull away.

Flipping through the roster of cadets at the Royal Military Academy and their test scores, Richard nodded with some satisfaction. There are a total of 839 cadets in the military academy, each of whom is a qualified officer and a qualified soldier. Richard's requirement for them is that after graduation, they must be able to be assigned to various levels of troops as commanders. Even if they have not graduated, they must be able to become qualified soldiers when they are called up urgently.

This is a regulation he set after referring to various military academies in later generations. There are various records to prove that whether it is the Whampoa Military Academy in China, the West Point Military Academy in the United States, or various military academies in Europe, cadets who fail to graduate during the war Exams, you can also apply for the front line when necessary, take up arms and go to the front, even if this is an extremely wasteful behavior of talents.

Putting down the roster, Richard left behind the guards who accompanied him, and wandered around the campus alone. The Royal Military Academy is built in a Gothic style. It looks towering and mysterious, giving people a faint sense of oppression. This can remind the students of their responsibilities and urge them to concentrate on their studies, instead of being like the students in the Nord Academy next door. Talk about love.

Looking at the towering Gothic spire, Richard touched his bearded chin, and an idea flashed through his mind, that is to design a medal that symbolizes glory and award it to every soldier in the war. Neutralize those who have made great contributions and satisfy their desire for honor.

In addition, the military rank system must also be implemented. If his army wants to upgrade to a modern army, military rank is indispensable. The military should not be judged by status and blood, but by rank. Or command a person with a low rank, even if you are a nobleman.

Richard knew that this set of regulations would definitely cause resistance from the nobles, but he is in power now, and all the troops obey him. In addition, the nobles have systematic constraints, and they will not rebel if they remain loyal to him, so Richard He can carry out drastic reforms while he is still alive, leaving a perfect chassis for his Frederick.

...

After half a month, Richard finally designed the Medal of Honor and created a military rank system with reference to later generations.

There are three levels of medals. The first level (the lowest level) is the Holy Cross. The style of the medal is the cross of Jesus Christ. Anyone who has made military exploits has a chance to get it; the second level is the Iron Cross. The style of the medal is a cross with a wide top and a narrow bottom (refer to the German Iron Cross), but a small double-headed eagle is engraved in the center of the cross. This kind of medal can only be obtained by those who have made great achievements; the third level is the eagle The medal, whose whole body is a double-headed eagle with wings made of gold, can only be obtained by those who have made great contributions, just like the credit of leading an army to conquer a country, so it is very rare.

The military rank system is much more complicated. The soldiers in the garrison troops of each city are all the ranks of private soldiers. The line infantry of the main battle regiment are all awarded the rank of superior soldier, the grenadiers are awarded the rank of corporal, and the guards in the palace are the rank of superior. The rank of sergeant (the rank of sergeant between corporal and sergeant was eliminated).

Among the grassroots officers, the company has newly established a second lieutenant squad leader (six people in a squad), a lieutenant platoon leader (thirty people in a row), a captain and a deputy company commander (that is, the original company command adjutant), and a captain (that is, the original company commander). commander). Above the company level, the deputy commander of the brigade is a major, the commander of the brigade is a lieutenant colonel, the deputy head of the brigade above the first level is a colonel, and the head of the brigade is a senior colonel.

The brigade and army rank above the regimental commander level, the deputy commander of the brigade level is awarded the rank of major general, the commander of the brigade level is awarded the rank of lieutenant general; the deputy commander of the army department is awarded the rank of general, and the commander of the army department is awarded the rank of The rank of general is awarded, and in the staff department established by the military department, all staff members accompanying the army are awarded the rank of colonel.
