Chapter 32 New Appointment

Seeing that the two were a little nervous, Ron waved his hand and comforted them:

"Don't be too reserved, I know everything about you, let's make it short."

He walked down and handed the defense corps appointment letter and badge with the governor's seal to the two.

"In view of your excellent performance and outstanding contributions, I have decided to appoint you as the corps commander and staff officer of the Ers Planet Defense Force!"

Yari and Keith were stunned when they looked at the appointment letter and badge in their hands.

The governor actually let them serve as the two highest-level officers in the defense force!

It was equivalent to handing the defense force directly to the two of them.

What a trust!

The two were stunned for a while.

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

Ron looked at the two expectantly.

Facing the expectant eyes of the governor, Yari was very excited.

"Damn it... Governor, you are such a good man. I will be the commander of the corps!"

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

But in the face of this gift, he still accepted it with pleasure.

In any case, the situation of the defense soldiers will be much better if the two of them take over the positions of commander and staff officer.

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

Ron nodded with satisfaction and threw out another heavy bomb:

"The defense army has paid too much for the Royal Court District. In the future, the administrative level of the defense army will be improved, and its status will be equivalent to other combat units in the Royal Court District."

This will be a major change.

After the rebellion, the original defense corps was almost completely lost.

The few remaining regiments also fell into the lower nest and the bottom nest, unable to return to the embrace of the Royal Court District.

In order to cope with new combat tasks, Bayev reorganized the defense army.

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

The new defense army is positioned as cannon fodder among cannon fodder, and is consumable.

Their status has dropped too much.

They are almost equivalent to slaves, and they can't even fill their stomachs.

Their combat effectiveness is also incomparable to the previous defense army.

Ron decided to change this situation and re-endow the defense army with new honors and missions.

The soldiers will no longer be slaves, but defenders of Ers, heroes worthy of respect!

"In short, the defense army will no longer be restricted by others.

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

Yarui was so excited that he trembled all over, and his eyes were wet.

The electronic prosthetic eye suddenly shone.

Yarui swore:

"I, the immortal Yarui, will never fail your trust even if I fall into hell!"

At this time, Keith was also moved. He lowered his head: "Governor, I will offer my loyalty!"

Ron nodded:

"The Royal Court District needs a combat-ready and loyal defense force.

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

He patted the shoulders of the two: "The defense force is in your hands, don't let me down!"

Ron's unreserved trust touched Yarui even more, and he secretly vowed to repay this trust with his life.

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

This is also the result Ron wanted.

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

He didn't have so much energy to manage the defense force.

All he could do was to select the right people and let them do things.

Since Yarui and Keith are talented, I will give them enough autonomy.

Let them do things without worries!

After that, Ron invited Yarui and Keith to have lunch together.

After stripping off the gold and gems, the Spire Mansion became less luxurious.

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

Yarui and Keith sat in the gorgeous banquet hall, feeling a little uneasy.

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

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

Today's lunch is Grox steak and Akenberry dessert, accompanied by Manola wine.

These foods seem ordinary to Ron.

But for people outside the Spire Mansion, it is an untouchable delicacy.

Yarui took a bite of Grox steak, and his mechanical prosthetic eye flashed.

Damn thing, it's damn delicious!

He didn't know how to describe such deliciousness.

All he knew was that the food in front of him was 10,000 times tastier than corpse starch and the radiation mushrooms in the bottom nest!

He was cutting the steak in a hurry, wishing he could reach out and grab it.

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

But he couldn't control his strength and cut the plate with a clattering sound.

Keith next to him was in a similar situation. The tender and juicy steak and the sweet and sour Akenberry cake completely conquered him.

His taste buds were almost exploding.

He tried to control his manners and maintain his demeanor.

He couldn't embarrass himself in front of the Governor!

Ron secretly observed the two while eating the steak.

He knew clearly how rare such food was for outsiders.

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

Let them enjoy the food to their heart's content.

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

While rewarding them, he could also get closer to them.

While eating, Ron found that Yari was wiping away tears. He looked up at him and hesitated to say something.

Yarui hesitated for a while, but couldn't help but speak:

"Governor..."

"Captain Yarui, please tell me what you want to say."

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

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

Yari hesitated.

Keith raised his head and added:

"In recent months, the supplies of the defense corps have been seriously insufficient, sometimes not as good as those of factory workers.

Under long-term hunger, the combat effectiveness of the defense army has been seriously reduced, and even starvation has occurred.

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

Listening to Keith's words, Ron was silent.

He knew these situations.

In the case of insufficient food reserves in the Royal Court District, the Logistics Department first reduced the supply of supplies for the defense army.

According to the investigation of the Logistics Department, most of the new recruits of the defense army do not survive more than three months.

Anyway, they are all consumables, so it doesn't matter whether they are full or not.

As long as they have the strength to carry the gun and shoot, it's fine.

So the supplies of the defense army were repeatedly reduced, to the point that they could not even keep up with the workers in the factory.

In fact, that was not a special case. The supply of supplies in all places in the territory was being reduced.

Including those administrative units.

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

Yarui nodded and looked at Ron pleadingly: "Governor, the soldiers need food!"
