Chapter 1336 Marshal El Bernard

The Holy Hiran Empire, the imperial capital of Elemua, Dominic's mansion (El's home).

"El! What are you thinking?!"

While El was packing his luggage, he silently listened to Gabriel next to him scolding him.

Gabriel pressed his temples firmly on both sides, trying to stay calm.

In the morning, his brother, El Bernard, was only a quartermaster first class.

When he returned from the palace in the afternoon, he became the commander-in-chief of the Far Eastern Front...

Such a contrast left Gabriel at a loss as to what to do.

It made Gabriel feel dizzy and doubt whether he was dreaming.

"Becoming the Commander-in-Chief of the Far Eastern Front...for such an important matter, El, you have to think about it for a few more days before making a decision, right?"

"Why did you agree directly on the spot?"

"You are nothing like your usual self!"

"Don't think that His Majesty is asking you to become an official!"

"Your Majesty sent you to the front line! Please go and deal with the prairie people!"

"If you fail to achieve good results, can you imagine what His Majesty will do to you?"

"Your Majesty might just hang you!"

The reason why Gabriel had such a big reaction after learning that El became the commander-in-chief of the Far Eastern Front was purely because he cared about El.

He was afraid that El would be held accountable by His Majesty for failing to achieve good results.

After Gabriel's scolding ended, El just happened to stuff all the clothes he wanted to bring into his suitcase.

Then he raised his head, looked at the ceiling above his head, and sighed softly.

"Isn't it like me normally..."

"I also feel that this is not like me at all..."

"Obviously I normally hate things like this that attract attention, but this time I readily accepted His Majesty's appointment."

"Why on earth would I do this..."

Speaking of this, the corners of El's mouth turned up in a bitter arc.

"Maybe it's to fulfill the promise made with the teacher."

"Maybe it's to teach the prairie people a lesson that I don't like very much either."

After saying that, El turned his head and looked at Gabriel beside him.

"Gabriel, hurry up and pack your bags."

"……ha?"

"I forgot to tell you just now. I have already applied to His Majesty - you will also go to the Far East with me. Your new identity is the captain of the bodyguard of the new commander-in-chief of the Far Eastern Front."

"Hurry up and pack your bags, we're going to be on the road right away."

"Get on the road immediately? Are you going to the Far East now?"

El shook his head.

"No, let's not go to the Far East now."

"We are going to rent a carriage now and go to Poggi Town."

"Carry something out from the Musketry Warehouse in Poggi Town."

"Then we'll go to a training ground quite far away from here to train soldiers."

"We will train the 2,000 crossbowmen given to me by His Majesty into usable 'new soldiers' within two months."

"'New soldier'?" Gabriel rolled his tongue and struggled to pronounce this word for the first time.

"You'll know what it is when you get to the training ground. Don't waste time and go pack your luggage. I'll rent a carriage first. After you pack your luggage, just wait for me at the entrance of the mansion."

…

…

While El and Gabriel were having a minor dispute in their mansion, a minor dispute was also unfolding in the palace of the Holy Hiran Empire.

"His Majesty!"

Mond said urgently to Vasily.

"Why are you confused? How can you hand over the Far Eastern Front to a young man who has almost no experience in commanding troops before?"

"I've said it before."

Vashili said expressionlessly.

“As long as we can eliminate the threat posed by the prairie people to our country,

Even if it is a dog, I will push it to the position of commander-in-chief of the Far Eastern Front. "

"And it's not like El has no experience in commanding troops."

"During the Battle of the Hammer a few years ago, didn't El Bernard successfully lead 2,000 soldiers to cross the Eghar Mountains and surprise attack on Baidi City, the capital of the north?"

"This is different! At that time, El commanded only 2,000 soldiers, while the Far Eastern Front had 80,000 troops!"

"Is he commanding this 80,000-strong army well?"

"Besides—that El is also a lunatic!"

"He actually plans to attack directly and conquer the grassland!"

"Now we can't even hold on to the defensive line and stop the grassland people, so how can we have the ability to go on an expedition to the grassland?!"

"Mond, that's enough!"

Vasily was tired of Mond's preaching.

"I've made up my mind!"

"Anyway, no one in the whole country can deal with the prairie people."

"Then let's just take a gamble!"

"Just bet on El's talent!"

From Vasili's expression and tone, Mond could tell that Vasili probably couldn't listen to his advice anymore.

But Mond still refused to give up.

After all, it would be of no benefit to him if the Far Eastern Front Army was destroyed by El.

If the Far East Front Army is gone, the grassland people will be able to launch an invasion of their Holy Hiran Empire even more unscrupulously.

If this situation happened, it would be of no benefit to Mond himself.

Therefore, Mond, who was unwilling to give up, gritted his teeth and made his final struggle:

"Your Majesty! To become the commander-in-chief of the front army, you must have the rank of marshal!"

"And El is just a first-class quartermaster. How can he be qualified to hold the position of commander-in-chief of the front army that only a marshal can hold..."

Before Mond finished speaking, Vasily interrupted rudely:

"Then make El Bernard a marshal!"

…

…

A piece of news that could be regarded as attracting worldwide attention spread rapidly to all parts of the country and other countries in the mainland since the afternoon of this day.

This news that attracts worldwide attention is that the Holy Hiran Empire has given birth to the youngest marshal in history who is only 26 years old this year.

The first task that the youngest marshal in history was responsible for after taking office as marshal was to take charge of the Far East Front.

El is not only the youngest marshal in history, but also the marshal with the most exaggerated promotion method in history.

Marshals in history basically relied on military merit and were promoted bit by bit from a junior officer.

But now something like this happened to El.

Before becoming a marshal, El even was not an officer, just a quartermaster.

From the quartermaster responsible for managing logistics and baggage, to being promoted to marshal in one day - this kind of promotion method can already be described as unheard of.

Some people are extremely dissatisfied with His Majesty's appointment and think that His Majesty is just messing around.

Some people think that His Majesty is very courageous, a bit like the former emperor of the Britannian Empire who promoted Su Cheng to be the leader of the Michael Knights.

But generally speaking, the vast majority of people are dissatisfied with His Majesty's appointment.

While everyone was judging the new marshal of the Holy Hiran Empire with various emotions, the new marshal was leading his brothers to train soldiers in a relatively remote training ground.
