Chapter 620 Understanding the Imperial Chosen

"Who? Are you talking about the mountain cats? They are the frontier soldiers guarding the border."

"Not the guards?"

"No." Field was very surprised. Why did she ask that?

"Excuse me, this is too exaggerated." Night Breeze jumped up in shock. "What you gave them, uh, I don't mean to question you, but they seem to have received too much. Woolen clothes, fish and meat!"

"Oh, you're talking about this."

Field waved his hand: "I don't need that, there's no need to pile it up in the warehouse to rot."

Now that we are close to the sea, there are a lot of sea fish, just right to eat. As for clothes, the clothes that were robbed at the beginning were so many that they filled the warehouse. It doesn't cost much to turn them into military cloaks.

"Oh my God, they are here to enjoy themselves. This is too wasteful."

Ye Feng's pupils shook: "Only fighting knights and magicians deserve such treatment."

Hearing this, Field immediately became interested.

"Impossible, Douqi Knights are knights, shouldn't they eat delicious food and have women on their left and right?"

"Of course not, the Douqi Knights in our army are selected from free people and then mass-produced." Ye Feng explained, "The combat effectiveness is much worse than that of noble knights, but it is enough."

"Let me introduce it. You young people can't explain it clearly."

Grandma Verance took a big gulp of broth, and then slowly introduced the various components and arms of the imperial army.

Everyone ate and talked, and Field understood the composition of the imperial army.

"So the high-level combat power of the army is like this."

Not to mention the royal army and the guards, the ordinary imperial army's Chosen, Douqi Knights, and Magicians are completely different from those of normal lords. They are "wholesale".

Step 1, collection. Every year, the empire absorbs first-level Chosen from all over the country through various means.

Step 2, simple screening. The collected Chosen are screened out for combat-type Chosen who are useful to the army based on their pantheons, skills and talents.

Step 3, training and cultivation.

The chosen ones will be sent to the Griffin Royal Military Academy for unified learning. At the same time, they will also be required to sign a contract with the royal lords. Those lords have never seen the chosen ones in their lives.

Most of them are the Queen's direct subordinates and relatives.

And those lords, whose territories are the lands specially cultivated by the royal family, generally focus on military affairs and are responsible for remote training of the chosen ones. They are not allowed to sign contracts with the contracted chosen ones.

Prevent ambitions from growing.

Step 4, screening at all levels. Once there are chosen ones who do not perform up to the standard, show resistance, or have crooked skills, they will be forced to use special divine power potions.

After taking the potion, their strength will be temporarily improved, and then they will never grow. Although they can absorb the divine power of the territory normally, they can't grow and advance at all.

At the same time, they will be arranged into the army, and they will also sign contracts with officers to become pure "senior soldiers", although their treatment is definitely much better than that of untouchables.

But there is no territory, and there is no "real lord", because their officers have no land at all, and they don't need land to train the Chosen, they are only responsible for commanding the Chosen to fight.

"That's right."

The shield girl Peggy nodded repeatedly: "Among us, only Ye Feng has not graduated yet. She still has room to grow, so everyone pampers her."

"Well..." Ye Feng still had meat in his mouth, and he looked touched.

"But there is nothing we can do about it. After all, the Chosen also have different talents, and the lords are the same." Grandma Wei Lanser saw it very clearly, "Rules are the foundation of strength, and there are not many problems with this system."

Field nodded secretly.

If the empire didn't have this system at the beginning, it would have perished long ago.

Standardized selection is very necessary. All walks of life need standardization as a cornerstone.

"Similarly, the fighting knights and magicians are all trained together. They don't have any territory, but their treatment is better than that of ordinary soldiers."

"This system is fine in theory, but there are probably many loopholes in its implementation."

Field tapped the table with his fingers: "I'm afraid there will be a lot of small moves."

"It's like this. Every year, a large number of outstanding God's Chosen are secretly transferred. It is said that they are selecting talents, but in fact, the outstanding ones are snatched away by ministers in the middle of the process."

Ye Feng is not surprised: "Some powerful families or officials will turn the outstanding God's Chosen into their private ones. As a result, the combat power absorbed by the army is getting less and less, and weaker and weaker."

"In addition, the God's Chosen who join the Imperial Army have no hope of life at all. We have no chance to change our fate, and... that kind of oppression, many sisters have suffered from it."

Ye Feng said this in a low voice: "We are already lucky, and most of those non-combat types have become toys."

In short, it is a rough assembly line production, and it is very decisive.

"It seems that I have to think carefully about this issue."

Field kept thinking about how to arrange the Chosen Ones of the Imperial Army.

"The food here is so delicious!" Ye Feng and others' eyes sparkled, which showed that their previous lives were not as good as Field imagined.

After dinner, Field led everyone to the Night Territory.

A few days later, when everyone arrived in the suburbs of Starry Night City, they were deeply shocked.

I saw endless windmills and waterwheels slowly rotating in the wind. And below those buildings were farmlands, pastures, and small stone fortresses.

Starry Night City and the big manor were almost connected.

The imperial army's eyes were wide open and they kept rubbing their eyes.

"Goddess, where is this place? Sir, we didn't take the wrong place by boat and came to other countries."

"There are so many windmills, all the stone roads here, and there are carriages!"

"There is such a large livestock farm, I have never seen such a large flock of sheep."

"Isn't the North a purgatory on earth? Look at those two cities, they are simply wealthy trading cities."

Ye Feng felt that his eyes were not enough. The people he met along the way were all wearing colorful clothes. None of them were pale and thin, most of them had smiles on their faces, and some people had leisure time and took their wives and children out for a picnic.

"Damn it, this is the northern border where corpses are rampant. Besides, it's winter, so we shouldn't worry about food."

The carriages appeared in the form of a convoy, with ores, food or daily necessities delivered, and boxes of goods sent out.

What's more terrifying is that she actually saw civilians sitting in the carriages!

The carriage with four horses is very spacious and can carry more than ten people at a time. The little girl Hei Yu also introduced it as a "public carriage" that is used to pick up and drop off workers at fixed times and locations.

"It's crazy." Ye Feng held her head. Even if she was in the capital of the empire, she had never seen such a scene.
