BXBX NOVEL Chapter 299 Army Ranks.
“We were busy with some stuff.”
Nux answered with a smile on his face.
The Deputy General narrowed his eyes since he didn’t like this vague answer, however, in the end, he just sighed and continued,
“Whatever, I am here to tell you that your tent is ready, follow me, I’ll show you where it is.”
“Alright, thank you for your work.” Nux nodded and then, he and Thyra started following the Deputy General.
“I talked with the General, she told me that you two don’t know much about the Army and War, so let me tell you a few important things.”
While the three of them were walking, the Deputy General started,
“We appreciate your efforts.”
Nux nodded, a small smile appeared on the Deputy General’s face and he continued,
“First, let me start with the Soldier Rankings within the Army.
The First is a Soldier, a normal soldier, they are usually Apprentice or Beginner Stage Cultivators.
Then comes the Head Soldier, or a Head, they are Advance Stage Cultivators and usually have 10-15 soldiers under their command, -ɴ(0ᴠᴇ)ʟ.
These 10-15 Soldiers and the Head Soldier leading them combined is called a Team.
The next Rank is the Unit Captain, they are Master Stage Cultivators and have 20-25 Teams under them.
This is called a Unit.
Next is the Squad Captain, Grand Master Stage Cultivation and 20-25 Units under them. This is called a Squad.
Then comes the Deputy Generals, Expert Stage Cultivators, and have around 20-25 Squads under them.
Then comes the one leading this Huge army, the General, the King Stage Cultivator, she has everything under her control, however, most of the time, she relies on her trusted Deputy Generals and efficiently manages the whole army.
After the Ruler of the Dynasty, she is the one with the most influence in the Woods Dynasty.” The Deputy General informed with a proud look on his face.
Nux nodded his head as he heard this information.
This was indeed a little interesting.
Thyra, who already knew about all this since it was similar to how the Army in the Skaadi Kingdom worked, didn’t have many changes in her expressions and questioned,
“So what is our rank?”
“I was coming to that topic.”
The Deputy General looked at Thyra and muttered.
Thyra nodded and the Deputy General continued,
“You two are Expert Stage Cultivators, someone who should be Deputy Generals, however, for the reasons you already know, we can’t make you the Deputy Generals.
Therefore, the General has introduced a new, special Rank for you two.
Assistant General.
This Rank will allow you to roam around the battlefield and do whatever you want. Other than the General herself, no one has the power to command you.”
“Hmmm, so that means we are Deputy Generals like you,” Nux commented.
The Deputy General’s face twitched and he shook his head,
“No, you are not Deputy General, you are Assistant Generals.”
“Isn’t that the same thing? We have the same status after all.” Nux smiled.
The Deputy General clenched his fist in frustration and answered,
“No, we do not have a similar status, although I cannot command you two, unlike you, I have full power to order any other soldier whose rank is lower than mine.
You, on the other hand, can only ask for assistance from anyone who is not the General or Deputy General, and if it forces them to put their lives on the line, they have the right to refuse you.
You do not have absolute power to control them, therefore, you do not have the same status as me.”
“Will the soldiers take their own life if you would order them to?” Nux questioned.
“Huh? Why would I give a crazy order like that?” The Deputy General frowned.
“Just answer the question,”
“There is no answer to a stupid question like this,
I will never give a stupid order like that.”
Nux smiled,
“You can try to deny it, however, I know the answer is no.
paɴᴅᴀ ɴ<0>ᴠᴇʟ They won’t follow your orders.
No matter how I look at it, Assistant General and Deputy General are the same.” Nux smiled.
The Deputy General clenched his fists in annoyance.
This man is too irritating, in the end, he decided to not respond to his words and continued walking.
Nux just smiled and didn’t say anything.
He was really enjoying his stay in this Army Camp.
Thyra, who saw everything couldn’t help but shake her head.
This Deputy General… she found him a little pitiful…
However, she won’t deny it, she was enjoying this as well.
A few minutes later, the three of them appeared in front of an empty space and the Deputy General smiled.
“You can live here, have a nice stay.”
Nux looked around again and then, he turned towards the Deputy General,
“Are your eyes working fine?
Where is the tent you are talking about?”
He questioned.
“Huh? Tent? Did you think we would arrange a set tent for you as well?
This is the Army, not your home where you could play around, arrange everything on your own.”
The Deputy General smiled.
Nux raised his eyebrow and then, a smile appeared on his face,
“Hey, you. Yes, you.
Come here.”
He looked around and ordered a soldier to come here.
When the soldier saw that the man calling him was standing with the Deputy General, his eyes widened in surprise and he rushed towards Nux and soluted.
“Deputy General!”
“Hmmm, Master Stage, so you must be a Unit Captain,” Nux muttered.
“Yes, I am.”
The Soldier nodded.
“Well, I am the new Assistant General, your superior, and I order you to set our tent here,” Nux ordered.
Then he turned towards the Deputy General and smiled,
“I can order him to do that, right, Deputy General?”
The Deputy General’s face twitched, however, he couldn’t do anything about it.
Nux indeed had the power to do it.
He could only nod.
