Warcraft Eternal Tree - Chapter 567
c567 The Eighth Army departs
Surprisingly, Yu Fei did not see any resentment in the eyes of the magicians gathered in front of him. This may be the privilege brought by strength. It must be that the previous mental pressure has taught these magicians too much.
Without much nonsense, Yu Fei directly used his mental power to control the letter of appointment issued by the Holy Emperor himself, unfolded it and flew it in front of these magicians. With the observation ability of magicians, they can naturally see the content of the letter of appointment clearly at a glance.
It turned out to be the new leader! All the magicians suddenly realized. Most of the magicians cast their eyes on the two sky-level magicians standing in the front, and after seeing that the two of them did not react at all, they all lowered their heads and looked obedient.
Well, this is considered acceptance? Yu Fei did not know what the process of the transfer of military power in the Holy Lion Empire was, so he dismissed the magicians according to his own ideas, leaving the two sky-level magicians to inquire about the situation.
Scott and Morton were a little uneasy. As the only two sky-level magicians in the newly established magician corps of the Eighth Army of the Holy Lion Empire, the affairs of the magician corps were originally managed by the two of them. Although the position of the head of the magician corps was undecided, it had been fought over by the two of them.
Who would have thought that the empire would suddenly airdrop a head of the corps. It was impossible to say that they were not dissatisfied. The magician corps could be allocated a lot of magic resources, and being the head of the corps would obviously make the most money.
However, these dissatisfactions disappeared as soon as they arose. The extremely powerful mental pressure just now was obviously emitted by this mysterious airdropped head of the corps. Scott and Morton, who had sky-level strength, easily judged that this head of the corps must be a legendary or even higher-level master.
After understanding this, some of the little thoughts in the hearts of the two naturally disappeared. To put it bluntly, there may still be some seniority-based situations in those ordinary armies, but this newly established magic group is originally composed of magicians recruited from all over the empire, and it is natural that they should follow the principle of strength first.
Scott and Morton were able to take charge of the affairs of the magic group and compete for the position of the leader because they were the strongest among the magicians. Now that there is a stronger one, they naturally have to stand at the back, and they can still adjust their mentality.
And they also saw in the letter of appointment that the newly appointed leader named O’Brien is also a real imperial earl, and his status under the dual identity is of course higher than theirs.
However, obeying Yu Fei is obeying Yu Fei, and there is still a competitive attitude between Scott and Morton. When Yu Fei asked about the current situation of the magic group, both of them rushed to answer. In desperation, Yu Fei had to point to a magician and let him speak first.
Scott, who was pointed at, looked at Morton proudly, and then began to narrate to Yu Fei with a little respect.
As Scott told him, Yu Fei gradually understood the overall situation of this mage group.
In terms of strength, Yu Fei had already scanned it when the mental pressure covered the entire camp just now. Now he compared it with what Scott said and found that his scan was not wrong.
Now there are a total of 1,003 magicians in the 8th Army Mage Group of the Holy Lion Empire. Among them, there is a legendary master mage – that is, Yu Fei himself; two sky-level magicians, standing in front of Yu Fei; ten cloud-level magicians, and the rest are gold-level and below, with bronze and black iron-level magicians being the most.
Yu Fei shook his head in his heart. This is what the good and the bad mean, right? Compared with the hundreds of thousands of blood elf magicians under his command, this mage group is really weak.
In terms of organization, the principle of strength first in the magic world is fully reflected. The ten cloud-level magicians are the ten captains in the mage group. Scott and Morton were jointly responsible for this mage group before Yu Fei arrived.
And just as Yu Fei thought, the independent magician group in the camp was actually independent, but it was nominally under the Eighth Army. In terms of status, the commander of the Eighth Army could not effectively command the magician group.
Yu Fei could understand this, as magicians were naturally nobler than ordinary soldiers. This was not Yu Fei’s idea, but an unspoken rule formed in the long history of the Eslaze continent. It was not wrong to say that Yu Fei was the head of the Eighth Route Army’s independent group.
In terms of the magic resources allocated, there were some magic crystals and magic materials. Yu Fei was not very concerned about these, because he did not need the things these local magicians needed. Magic crystals could be converted into energy, but he did not care about that.
After getting a general understanding of the situation of the magician group, Yu Fei appointed Scott and Morton as deputy heads of the group with a dull attitude, set some rules, and then walked directly into the largest and most luxurious tent that had been empty in the back part of the camp.
Scott and Morton looked at each other, then they both snorted coldly, turned their heads away from each other, and returned to their tents. Of course, the first thing they did after returning was to announce the rules set by Yu Fei.
The rules set by Yu Fei were actually very simple, with only two:
1. No irrelevant people are allowed to appear in the camp.
2. Private fighting is strictly prohibited within the magic group.
The first rule was naturally aimed at the scene that Yu Fei saw when he first arrived at the Mage Corps camp. How could an imperial mage corps openly summon JI?
The second rule was added by Yu Fei casually, otherwise it would be too simple if there was only one rule.
Well, well, even so, it is still very simple. This also fully shows that Yu Fei is not very concerned about this mage corps.
Yu Fei thought so: he originally came here just to deal with the so-called conscription order, and his purpose was just to deeply understand the strength of the Holy Lion Empire army and the situation of the orcs who invaded the heart of the human world. This mage corps is just a tool. In fact, he hopes that all the magicians in the mage corps will die in the war, so that when the night elves unify Eslaze, they can reduce some resistance and losses.
Yu Fei did this and left it alone, but Scott and Morton did not dare to neglect it. Before, the two of them competed with each other, and they turned a blind eye to some things in order to win over the magicians under their command. Now that the real boss has appeared and wants to rectify military discipline, the two deputy commanders can only cooperate vigorously.
The two rules are not too strict. Even if the two deputy commanders implement them without any discount, the magicians will not complain. Of course, this may also be because they know that complaining will not produce any results.
Yu Fei, who stayed in the tent of the commander of the Mage Corps, was radiating his consciousness to patrol the situation of the blood elves. If there is no war in the Holy Lion Empire, the Mage Corps does not need to be dispatched.
But soon, the war came. On the third day after Yu Fei arrived at the Mage Corps camp, which was the last day of his term of office stipulated in the letter of appointment, the commander of the Paramount Corps notified him that the troops would set out.
Are we going to have close contact with the orcs so soon? Yu Fei felt a little excited. No wonder the letter of appointment stipulated a five-day arrival time. It turns out that the Eighth Army will participate in the war on the front line after these five days.
Compared to the ordinary soldiers who had to walk and march hard, the treatment of the magicians was much better. Every magician had a carriage for transportation. Of course, this was also because there were not many magicians, otherwise they would have to squeeze in.
Yu Fei was too lazy to ride in a carriage. After being a mount for so long, the sacred wolf had also learned how to make the rider feel most comfortable. Sitting on the sacred wolf was much more comfortable than a carriage.
The Eighth Army had a total of 150,000 infantry and 20,000 cavalry. It was quite troublesome to march with so many troops, which made Paramount a little anxious. But all this had nothing to do with Yu Fei. Sitting on the sacred wolf, he comfortably came to the front line with the army ten days later.
