Chapter 68: Military achievements are rare

Weilin naturally knew a lot about military exploits and war exploits.

According to the kingdom's promotion system, military merit can be obtained by turning in monster heads, making contributions during non-war periods, and receiving commendations from the king.

However, military merit can only be obtained on the battlefield. In other words, it must be obtained by launching a foreign war in the kingdom. There are strict review rules. In addition, there is no other way to obtain it. Even the king cannot grant any noble military merit out of thin air.

This military operation against the monster clan in the Gray Mansions Wasteland is in a sense a type of foreign war, and joining the war also requires reaching a certain threshold.

"Weilin, do you know how many noble families are participating in this military operation?"

Facing Brian's question, Verin was very confused and asked: "Cousin, just tell me."

"There are seventeen families in total, which is less than half of the number of nobles in Cardro Province." Brian took a deep look at Verin and then said, "As for the reserve nobles, you are the only one."

Wei Lin suddenly understood in his heart.

Not every noble has the opportunity to obtain military exploits, and a certain threshold is required to participate in military operations.

"Uncle, how much more military exploits do you have left?" Weilin turned to look at Alcott and Edgar and asked.

"During my tenure as lord, I gained thirteen battle merits. Including the battle merits inherited from my father, the total is twenty-seven, and there are still three short of reaching the standard." Edgar said first.

Then, Alcott also said: "I have accumulated a total of twenty-five battle achievements, and there are still five more to go."

"If we are assigned to the second-line support position this time, we may not get much merit at all. Then we can only wait for the next opportunity."

"And this wait may last more than ten or twenty years. After all, there are not many wars on the western border, and there are even fewer opportunities to gain military exploits."

Listening to the words of the two cousins ​​and looking at their ages, Weilin knew very well that they were not exaggerating.

"Sir, there is an adult visiting outside, claiming to be Lord Verin's aunt." A silver knight entered the camp and reported to Alcott.

Seeing everyone's eyes looking at him, Weilin explained: "Cousin, cousin, it should be Aunt Flora."

"Invite the other party in."

The Silver Knight took the order and exited the tent.

After a while, a heroic female knight entered the camp.

Flora looked around, smiled at Verin, and then formally introduced: "Flora Akers, belongs to the lineage of Earl Anduci, and has met all the clan members."

"Alcott Akers belongs to the lineage of Earl Eagle."

"Edge Akers belongs to the lineage of Earl Michis."

"Brian Akers belongs to the lineage of Earl Eagle."

"Verin Akers belongs to the lineage of Earl Eagle."

After everyone introduced each other, Weilin was the first to speak: "Auntie, come and sit here."

Flora was not polite and came directly to Weilin and sat down.

Verin then acted as a "liaison" to lighten the serious atmosphere.

Within a moment, everyone was chatting happily.

Thanks to the family's good upbringing and family tradition, the barriers between strangers quickly disappeared among people who share a common ancestor.

"Flora, you are developing very well, and you are much better than us." Alcott sighed sincerely while sighing.

"Cousin Alcott, you can't say that. You are all working hard outside with the help of your family, unlike us who have the help of elders, the road is smooth, and there are not so many things to worry about." Flora looked humble. said.

"You can't say that. Elders are just guides. Your current achievements would not be achieved without your own efforts." Edgar shook his head and said to Flora with a smile.

At this moment, Weilin said, "Auntie, do you know how this army reorganization is going on?"

Alcott and Edgar turned their heads and stared at Flora, even Brian who was doing soy sauce on the side was no exception, looking at his distant aunt with keen eyes.

"I know something about the army's organization." Flora thought for a while and replied, "According to the regiment leader's plan, our Knights headquarters will serve as the center army, and the noble army will be divided into the left army and the right army. Serve as a logistics force and cleaning force.”

"So, do you know the list?" Alcott asked tremblingly.

Upon hearing this, Flora shook her head and said, "I don't know very well. My elder brother may know."

Suddenly, Flora patted her head: "By the way, I suddenly remembered what I came here for this time."

"Aunt, why are you looking at me?" Weilin asked in confusion as he watched Flora turn her head to stare at him.

"Of course there is something good." Flora rubbed Weilin's head and said, "I have planned a good job for you this time. Others are still waiting there, so hurry up and come with me."

"Yes." Weilin suppressed his doubts and nodded in agreement.

Flora stood up and said to the other three people: "I will inquire about the list. If it is possible, I will ask my elder brother to try his best to get you to the left army."

"Thank you." The three stood up and thanked them.

Afterwards, Flora pulled Verin out.

At this moment, there were only three of them left in the camp.

"If we can do it, we can't let their help go in vain. We must give something in return."

Alcott's words were quickly echoed by the other two.

Just letting the clan members contribute their efforts and enjoying it without giving anything in return is not in line with their rules of doing things, nor is it in line with the rules of the family's work.

Therefore, the three of them agreed that if they could be assigned to the left route army, each of them would give twenty kilograms of orichalcum, and the total of sixty kilograms would be given to Flora's brother as a reward.

……

In the Knights' station, Flora took Weilin to the logistics office.

"Flora, you're late." A young female priest stared at Flora and complained.

Flora, who knew she was in the wrong, smiled sheepishly: "Moira, I'm sorry, I just communicated with the tribe for a while and forgot about this matter."

"Hey." The young female pastor sighed, "Forget it, this is your nephew, right."

"Correct."

Flora quickly pulled Verin to Moira: "Verin, this is Moira Colombo, my friend, the silver mid-level priest of the Goddess of Life, and the head of the logistics force."

Then, Flora turned to Moira and warned: "Moira, this is my nephew, and I will leave it to you for the rest."

"Well, I understand. The regiment leader just called a meeting of combat unit officers. You go quickly."

"understood."

Upon hearing this, Flora said something quickly and ran towards the largest camp of the Knights without looking back.
