Chapter 32 New Appointment

Seeing that the two of them were a little nervous, Ron waved his hand to comfort him:

  "Don't be too formal. I understand everything about you, so let's keep it short."

  He walked down and appointed the defense corps who had the governor's seal. The book and badge were handed into the hands of the two people.

  "In view of your outstanding performance and outstanding contributions, I have decided to appoint you as the regiment commander and staff officer of the Erth Planetary Defense Force!"

  Ari and Keith looked at the appointment letters and badges in their hands and were stunned.

  The Governor-General actually appointed them as the two highest-ranking officers within the Defense Force!

  It was equivalent to handing the defense force directly into the hands of these two subordinates.

  What a trust!

  Both of them were confused for a moment.

  "How about it, are you willing to take on this responsibility?"

  Ron looked at the two of them expectantly.

  Facing the expectant eyes of the Governor, Ya Rui was very excited.

  "Damn... Lord Governor, you are such a good man. I will be the commander of this army!"

  Keyes seemed much calmer. He thought about a lot of things and didn't quite believe that the Governor would trust them so much.

  But faced with this gift, he still happily accepted it.

  No matter what, if the two of them take over the positions of regimental commander and staff officer, the situation of the SADF soldiers will be much better.

  He performed a standard etiquette: "I accept the appointment!"

  Ron nodded with satisfaction and threw another bombshell:

  "The Defense Force has paid too much for the Wangting District, and the administrative level of the Defense Force will be improved in the future. , the status is equivalent to other combat units in Wangting District. "

  This will be a major change.

  After the mutiny, the original defense regiment was almost wiped out.

  The few remaining regiments also fell into Xiachao and Bottomchao, unable to return to the embrace of the Wangting District.

  In order to cope with the new combat tasks, Bayev reorganized the Defense Forces.

  He selected suitable people from the refugees from the lower nest to form a new defense corps.

  The new defense force is positioned as cannon fodder among cannon fodder and is a consumable.

  His status has dropped too much.

  Almost like a slave, he can't even fill his stomach.

  The combat effectiveness cannot be compared with that of the previous defense forces.

  Ron decided to change this status quo and give the Defense Force a new honor and mission.

  The warriors will no longer be slaves, but defenders of the planet Erth, heroes worthy of respect!

  "In short, the National Defense Force will no longer be restricted by others.

  Your lives are valuable and deserve the honor you deserve. No one dares to look down on you anymore!"

  Ya Rui was so excited that his whole body was shaking, and his eyes were wet.

  The electronic prosthetic eye shone brightly.

  Ya Rui swore like an oath:

  "I, Immortal Ya Rui, will never betray your trust even if I fall into hell!"

  At this time, Keith was also a little moved, and he lowered his head: "My Lord Governor, I will offer my loyalty!

  Ron nodded:

  "Wangting District needs a fighting and loyal defense force.

  You are very capable, so I will give you full autonomy to recruit and train the defense force in your own way. "

  He patted the two of them on the shoulders: "I'll leave the defense force to you, don't let me down!"

  Ron's unreserved trust moved Ya Rui even more, and he secretly vowed to repay this trust with his life.

  Case's impression of the young governor also changed, and he became more respectful in his words and actions.

  This is also the result Ron wants.

  To be honest, he didn't understand how to train the defense forces and how to keep the soldiers loyal.

  There is even less energy to manage the defense force.

  All he can do is pick the right people and let them do the work.

  Since Ari and Keith are talents, I will give them enough autonomy.

  Let them do things without any worries!

  Afterwards, Ron invited Ari and Keith to have lunch.

  The spire mansion became less luxurious after being stripped of gold and precious stones.   

  But with Linda's efforts, the craftsmen re-decorated it with other materials, and the overall look became more advanced.

  Ari and Keith were sitting in the gorgeous banquet hall, feeling a little uneasy.

  They had never stayed in such a high-end place before, and they were afraid of making a joke.

  Under Ron's new rules, lunch at the Spire Mansion became much simpler.

  Today's lunch was Grox steak and Arkenberry pastry, accompanied by Manora wine.

  The food seemed ordinary to Ron.

  But for people outside the spire mansion, it is an untouchable delicacy.

  Ari took a bite of Grox steak and his mechanical eyes flashed.

  Damn thing, it's so damn delicious!

  He didn't know how to describe such deliciousness.

  All I know is that the food in front of me is 10,000 times more delicious than corpse starch and the radioactive mushrooms in the bottom nest!

  He cut the steak eagerly, wanting to reach out and grab it.

  But the Governor was right across the street, so he didn't dare to be too presumptuous.

  But he still couldn't control his strength, and the plate clattered loudly.

  Keith next to him was similar. He was completely conquered by the tender and juicy steak and the sweet and sour akenberry cake.

  His taste buds nearly exploded.

  He tried hard to control his demeanor and maintain his grace.

  You can't be embarrassed in front of the Governor!

  Ron was eating steak while secretly observing the two of them.

  He knew very well how rare this kind of food was to people outside.

  So he tried to remain silent and didn't pay too much attention.

  Let them enjoy their food.

  Ron decided to invite more important subordinates to lunch in the future.

  While rewarding them, you can also bring them closer together.

  While eating, Ron noticed that Ari was wiping away tears. He raised his head and looked at himself, hesitating about what he wanted to say.

  Ya Rui hesitated for a while, but couldn't help but said:

  "Mr. Governor..."

  "Captain Ya Rui, if you have anything to say, just tell me."

  Ron tried his best to keep his voice gentle so as not to put too much pressure on the other party.

  "I think of the soldiers of the legion. They... they are still hungry!"

  Ya Rui hesitated.

  Case raised his head and added:

  "In recent months, the supply of materials to the Defense Force has been seriously insufficient, sometimes not as good as factory workers.

  Under long-term hunger, the combat effectiveness of the Defense Force has been severely reduced, and there have even been cases of people starving to death. situation.

  If supplies are not replenished in time, there will be more serious consequences..."

  Ron fell silent after listening to Case's words.

  He knew these circumstances.

  When Wangting District's food reserves were insufficient, the Logistics Department first reduced the material rationing of the National Defense Forces.

  According to a survey by the Logistics Department, most new recruits of the National Defense Forces do not survive more than three months.

  They are all consumables anyway, and it doesn't matter whether they are full or not.

  As long as they have the strength to carry a gun and shoot.

  Therefore, the supplies of the National Defense Force have been repeatedly reduced, so that even the workers in the factory cannot compare.

  In fact, that is not a special case. Material rations are being reduced in all parts of the territory.

  including those administrative units.

  "Yes, yes, cunning... the staff officer is right!"

  Ya Rui nodded and looked at Ron pleadingly: "Mr. Governor, the soldiers need food!"
