Main Battle Legion Organization!
Main Battle Legion.
Based on the reorganization and restructuring plan reported by Douglas Bullet, the World Government divided the nearly one million troops originally belonging to the Army Headquarters, as well as the affiliated armies of Otherworld, into three parts.
That is, the Main Battle Legion, the defensive legion, and the Auxiliary Corps.
Among them, the Auxiliary Corps are usually responsible for World Military Draft by 'Otherworld garrison commanders' appointed by the High Command.
In particular, the use of light and heavy firearms such as firearms and grenades, as well as the operation of various armored vehicles such as tanks and trucks.
If the Army Headquarters needs troop support during wartime, it can apply to the General Staff, which will then issue a dispatch order to the General Staff 'Otherworld Garrison Commander'.
The 'Otherworld Garrison Commander' who receives the order will then send sufficient troops and armored vehicles to the 'Canberra Continent' (Australia) in the 'Giant World'.
From this point onward, command of these auxiliary armies is automatically transferred to the commanders of the corresponding Main Battle Legion.
And the defending legion.
As the name suggests, they are mainly responsible for guarding the Sea Star Homeworld or Otherworld that have been conquered.
Each 'Otherworld garrison commander' will bring a number of guards to act as their personal guard, depending on their rank, in order to deter and suppress Otherworld from the otherworld.
If they encounter situations that the garrison troops cannot resolve, they also have the right to submit a report to the High Command of the Sea Star Headquarters and request the dispatch of the Main Battle Legion for support.
Finally, there are the Main Battle Legion.
Every Army Headquarters Admiral also serves as a corps commander.
A Main Battle Legion has 60,000 troops, of which 10,000 are the corps commander's direct troops, and the rest are divided into five main battle divisions, each with a total of 10,000 troops, and each division is commanded Vice Admiral an elite lieutenant general.
During wartime, the corps commander would appoint one of the five division commanders as the 'frontline commander-in-chief,' who would have the authority to command the other four division commanders without interference from the corps commander.
Secondly.
Each main combat division consists of two main combat brigades, each with 5,000 troops, and the brigade commander is a Vice Admiral. Each main combat brigade also consists of two main combat regiments, and the regimental commander is a Rear Admiral.
Next are the main combat battalions Commodore by brigadier generals, the main combat companies commanded by colonels from headquarters, the main combat platoons commanded by lieutenant colonels from headquarters, and the main combat squads commanded by Major from headquarters.
A main combat squad consists of ten main combat soldiers.
That's right.
In the Main Battle Legion, even Major from the headquarters is only a squad leader, and he was the one who stood out from the garrison corps after fierce competition.
According to the new regulations, at the end of November each year, the Main Battle Legion will allocate a certain number of quotas to the defending legion based on the number of casualties this year.
The garrison corps can then use these guidelines to gather officers and soldiers who want to be promoted to the Main Battle Legion and hold an internal peer-to-peer competitive assessment.
For example, if two lieutenant colonels are killed in the Main Battle Legion, then all the lieutenant colonels in the garrison corps can only compete for those two spots. If there is only one colonel, then they can compete for the only available spot.
In theory, if the Main Battle Legion suffers no casualties in a given year, then there is naturally no need to hold any assessments.
As for the advantages and disadvantages of joining the Main Battle Legion.
The disadvantages are obvious: the chances of dying in battle are much higher than those of a garrison. Fortunately, the higher-ups are aware of this and have therefore set up sufficiently attractive benefits.
First, the Main Battle Legion's salary is three times that of the defending legion!
Secondly, the battle merits of the Main Battle Legion have a higher priority than those of the defending legion. For example, if both sides have their eyes on a certain resource, the Main Battle Legion will definitely be given priority in exchanging it.
Of course, the chances of gaining merit in the Main Battle Legion are much greater than in the defensive legion, and the Main Battle Legion also has priority in medical resources.
These factors will undoubtedly lead to the Main Battle Legion's personnel improving in both strength and rank far faster than those of the garrison legion.
At last.
The officers and soldiers of the Main Battle Legion can also obtain noble titles and an Otherworld World Government consuming a certain amount of battle merits.
Whether to exchange battle merits for resources or for a noble title is entirely up to the individual.
When this rule was first introduced, it caused a huge uproar among the various royal families and nobles, generating various insults, opposition, and even some rather intense reactions.
However, since the Five Elders dared to make the announcement, they must have been prepared in advance, and immediately ordered CIPHER POLs, police, and the navy in various locations to launch a joint arrest operation.
The World Government has long since mastered the "high-speed passage" inside the Sea Star 'White Dragon', allowing Marine Headquarters warships to reach any kingdom in the Four Seas in just two or three days.
With the addition of Air Force Flying Warship, this so-called 'aristocratic turmoil' was actually suppressed in less than a week.
This immediately awakened all the royalty and nobles; the World Government had completely changed.
The latter had long since stopped caring about their consent.
But.
This system of exchanging military merit for titles is actually being discussed within the World Government, but a concrete implementation plan has not yet emerged.
Even so, it was enough to get the Main Battle Legion's blood pumping, while the defending legion was filled with envy and longing.
This unsurprisingly caused internal turmoil.
That is, other departments, from top to bottom, are also concerned about whether this system can be extended to themselves, such as CIPHER POL, the Academy of Sciences, and the Medical Academy.
In the past few days, the five major branches of the World Government in Sea Star Homeworld have been discussing this matter.
Let's get back to the Main Battle Legion.
According to the plan, since each Admiral will concurrently serve as the commander of a corps, the Army Headquarters will eventually have three Main Battle Legion with a total strength of around 180,000.
However, after reviewing Bullet's reform plan, Imu added another rule.
In other words, the commanders of corps, division, and brigade must Shambles every five years. This ensures that officers of the rank of Vice Admiral and above cannot serve in the same unit for too long, thus eliminating the risk of the public army becoming a private army.
However, there is only one Admiral, Sakazuki, at Army Headquarters right now, so there's nowhere to transfer him.
Fortunately, this is only the first year. In the next four years, the 'Second Main Battle Legion' and the 'Third Main Battle Legion' will likely appear one after another.
Just like recently.
Since Douglas Bullet became the 'first-line commander' in this operation.
Rumors have already begun circulating within the military that after defeating this Otherworld, he will be promoted to the second Army General and become the commander of the 'Second Main Battle Legion'!
"As expected, here we go again."
In the Star Gate Base nestled in the snowy valley, Sakazuki and Bullet looked up at the fiery warheads hurtling towards them again, but this time it wasn't just one, but a full twenty-two warheads flying towards them like burning meteors.
"Do they really have that much of this?"
Bullet looked at them with a serious expression, because he didn't think he could withstand twenty-two attacks like the previous ones, even with Sakazuki by his side.
This time, however, he didn't make any move, but just watched quietly like everyone else.
[Boom!]
Suddenly, with a deafening Sound Explosion, a huge golden afterimage appeared in the distance, heading straight towards the densely packed bullets.
The next moment, the sky parted, revealing a green crack that grew larger and larger.
