Chapter 108 Poor Military Logistics Agency

The leisurely morning passed quickly.

This time, Xu Yi came to Anweimar City and had a lot to do, so naturally there was not so much leisure time like this morning.

After having lunch with Sdier, Xu Yi and the military headquarters sent their men to the military training ground not too far from the northwest suburbs of Anweimar City.

In fact, the military headquarters had long wanted Xu Yi to come, but Xu Yi had something to do, so it was difficult to take time to come to Anweimar. This time, Xu Yi finally came, but of course the military headquarters refused to miss this opportunity, so they made an appointment with Xu Yi early on.

After rigorous inspection, Xu Yi entered the training ground and immediately discovered an acquaintance.

Of course it is Major Maconley.

As soon as he saw Xu Yi, Major Maiconli immediately greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Hey, President Xu, you are finally willing to come here, which really makes me very happy."

Xu Yi smiled and shook his head: "Major Maiconli, you are still so polite. In fact, I have wanted to come here to see it. This time I happened to have a chance, so of course I would not miss it."

After the two exchanged a few greetings, Major Maiconli introduced some other people in the training ground to Xu Yi.

In addition to some officers from the military headquarters, these people also had several instructors in the training ground and a total of twenty ordinary soldiers.

After meeting Xu Yi, these people treated Xu Yi very enthusiastically. Although it was their first time meeting, they seemed to have long regarded him as a good friend.

Xu Yi was a little surprised. Why were these people so enthusiastic about them? You should know that he was just an ordinary businessman. He should be out of place with the soldiers.

"The problem is, President Xu, you are not an ordinary businessman." Maiconli laughed. "The other businessmen with gold coins in their heads will indeed be looked down upon by us, the solid soldiers. But you are different. Because you and your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, now your brothers can finally have a complete set of equipment. After going to the battlefield, your ability to kill enemies or save lives will be greatly increased. Why do you think we are not enthusiastic about you?"

"That's it. In the past, we, the people from the Logistics Department, were worried about the equipment on our brothers all day long, but they couldn't solve it because they didn't have money. As a result, President Xu, you easily solved the biggest problem with your actions. How could we not treat you as your brother?" Another officer from the Logistics Department also smiled.

"Oh? I don't seem to be that capable, right? I have solved such a big problem?" Xu Yi said in surprise.

"President Xu, you don't know how poor our Logistics Office was before. Let me tell you. Before that, among the army in the entire kingdom, only the guys who fought with the bastards in the Sak Kingdom every day were quite complete. On average, the five brothers in the other teams might not be able to make up a complete set of armor! As for weapons... do you believe it? Some brothers in the Lycra Legion even used the big iron sword that had been used for more than five years? Now the big iron sword is always rusted and always polished, and it almost turns into a short sword!"

"It's not so miserable..." Xu Yi was a little shocked.

If the equipment of the soldiers in the army of the Kingdom of Lampari was really as bad as they said, then the combat effectiveness of the Kingdom army is too worrying now.

If this really starts, I am afraid that if I encounter a slightly more elite enemy, I will be defeated thousands of miles away.

"Who said no?"

When talking about war, the officers of these military headquarters immediately started talking as if they were talking.

A group of people gathered together and kept spitting bitter water at Xu Yi

A moment later, an officer claimed that the enemy had had a conflict somewhere, but because of poor equipment, three thousand people had not beaten two thousand of them. Not only did he lose the battle and die more than a thousand people, he was also scolded and denounced as waste by the nobles of the Kingdom Council.

After a while, another officer said that he was still on the front line and was attacked by an enemy. He woke up from his dream. He habitually reached out to touch the side, but could only touch an iron stick.

It turned out that it was because of insufficient weapons. He could only find an iron stick as a weapon.

A military officer said later...

...

Listening to the various miserable situations revealed by these officers, Xu Yi couldn't help feeling resentful, and then he felt very strange.

"Since our kingdom is so inadequate, why has the Sakh Kingdom never succeeded in invasion?"

"Nonsense, of course, it's because the brothers are fighting hard." An officer said angrily. "Those noble men hid behind and scolded this waste all day long, but they didn't know that the brothers were fighting hard every day on the front line. If they were not well equipped, they would use their bodies to fight. In short, they would not let the grandsons of the Sak Kingdom rush in."

"Hey...but this is a very bad fight." Major Maconley sighed. "The casualties of Zhenbei Army will not be less than 5,000 every year. I doubt that if this continues, Zhenbei Army will be defeated. Who can withstand the guys in the Sak Kingdom then?"

A group of officers looked at each other, and after a while, one of them spitted fiercely. "Bah, let those noble men fight!"

Of course everyone knew that he was talking. After a while of silence, Major Maiconli smiled and said, "Okay, don't talk about these disappointing things. Today, President Xu is here for the first time. You can't let him listen to our complaints all the time, right? Besides, President Xu has helped us solve the big problem of military equipment. I believe everyone has seen the 50,000 pairs of armor and weapons I sent over before? Let me tell you, President Xu just needs less than 500,000 gold coins for these 50,000 pairs of armor and weapons!"

"Only 500,000 gold coins?" A group of officers looked at Xu Yi in surprise. One of the officers couldn't help asking: "President Xu, is your New Flying Chamber of Commerce too much money? If this pair of armor and weapons were bought from the Joseph family, it would cost at least 30 gold coins. 50,000 sets would cost at least 1.5 million gold coins."

"Yes, you not only won't make money like this, but you may also lose money, right? Although we soldiers don't like you businessmen who only like money, we also know that you want to make money. I'm afraid you are not good at this...

Xu Yi looked at the questioning faces in front of him and thought that these officers might not know the situation because they were not from the Logistics Department, but Major Maconley knew the specific situation well. Had he never explained it to these officers?

If so, why are these officers present today?

Seeing Xu Yi's puzzled gaze projecting, Major Maiconli clapped his hands, attracted the attention of the officers, and said loudly: "Okay, brothers, whether President Xu makes money or not, I don't think you really care about this issue, and this issue doesn't need you to care about. The reason why President Xu was invited today is because there are some technical issues to ask him for advice. You have to hurry up. President Xu is very busy. If he missed this opportunity, I am afraid it will be difficult to have a chance in the future."

The officers all showed a sudden enlightenment and dispersed one after another. After a moment, they pulled a soldier who was training on the training ground.

"President Xu, look, he is wearing one of the sets of armor that your chamber of commerce sent last time. I think there should be some corresponding modifications on the back. If the gaskets here can be thicker."

"President Xu, this is also the armor sent by your chamber of commerce. I think it's best to keep a joint for activity here so that it's easier for brothers to wave their weapons."

"President Xu, look at this. This is the spear you sent. I think this gun is very sharp and strong, but it is a little light. I heard that what alloy you made of is very good, but many brothers say they are not used to it, and the impact force brought by this is not enough, and the power is not perfect enough. Can you see if you can change it?"

"President Xu..."

...

Xu Yi's eyes swept over the soldiers, listened to the various opinions put forward by the officers, and wrote down all the small notebooks he carried with him. Then he asked Major Maiconli to use a ruler and other measurement tools to record all the parameters.

After all the officers got answers that could be obtained correspondingly modified, they left with satisfaction. Then, under the organization of Maconli, the officers led the twenty soldiers to practice a small encounter in front of Xu Yi so that Xu Yi could observe something from it and make some corresponding improvements to the equipment.

Xu Yi watched the drill on the sidelines for a while, and suddenly asked Major Maiconli beside him in a low voice: "This kind of technical problem only requires a few technicians from the Chamber of Commerce to deal with it. Why do you have to let me do it?"

Major Maconley still kept a smile on his face and replied casually: "Brothers, I heard that you, the New Air Chamber of Commerce, can solve the equipment problem that has made us difficult for so many years. I am very curious about you, the president, so I want to see you."

"Just look at me?" Xu Yi asked again.

"You know, our soldiers are all straightforward people. If you help everyone, then everyone will support you. The help you give us in the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can help us lose many brothers, and we will naturally regard you as our closest brother. Letting you come here is to let you get in touch with everyone and get to know each other, so that it will be very convenient for you to do whatever you want in the future."

Xu Yi was silent for a while and said softly: "I don't want to do anything, I just want to open a chamber of meetings and do business honestly."

Major Maiconli turned his head to look at Xu Yi, and the smile on his face seemed to have a deep meaning.

"President Xu, no matter whether you want it or not, you have done some things."
