"Monkey, what is that? Our spies don't seem to be back so early?" A soldier at the lookout post of the 411th Legion of the Mocaster Empire hurriedly pulled up his comrades beside him.

"Let me see... Ahem! You're really old, you're getting less and less courageous, you old horse. Have you ever seen anyone use such a slow-moving and small-numbered force to sneak attack or raid a reorganized army? Don't worry, it's probably some small transport team from the logistics department... Oh~ I'm so tired, I've been on duty all day, this is not a job for humans... Old Ma, please bear with me for a while, I'll take a nap, just wake me up before dinner... I don't know how long this damn task of blocking the canyon will last..." Having said that, the one called Monkey tilted his head and fell asleep again.

"You dead monkey, I'll call you a pig from now on! Well, I'd better find someone to take a look. If anything goes wrong, I can't afford it... Eric, take a few people to check out what's going on with that team in the southwest direction? If it's an unrelated caravan, tell them to get out of here immediately, otherwise we'll give them a hard time..." Lao Ma, still feeling a little worried, sent a small team to check there, just in case.

"..."

"Stop, who are you? What are you doing here... Uh! Aren't you the after-sales service team? How come you came here to help maintain our weapons after coming to our barracks last time and found nothing? Damn, your boss really knows how to do business. I'm afraid he has monopolized half of the country's weapons now? But it's true, if we don't do business for your boss, we little soldiers will fuck up those bastards in the military... Hey! Thank you, thank you! Come on, brothers, come and help too."

After carefully looking at the faces of the group of people and the items they brought, the captain named Eric immediately went to meet them. At this time, a man also came out from the group heading to the military camp, and he stuffed a few silver coins into the hands of each soldier in the group, and a gold coin into Eric's hand.

After putting the gold coins in his hand into his arms, Eric immediately called his own team and asked the soldiers to help the team reduce the burden. He then pulled the team leader over and started chatting.

"Hey, Haisen, you guys are really dedicated. Ever since our army switched to your company's weapons, you have been helping us maintain them every two months. This really makes us, the people who eat the emperor's food, feel very happy.

As soon as you arrive, our weapons are immediately refurbished, which is amazing. Now our entire army no longer needs to worry about whether the swords in our hands will rust or be cut into pieces every day. As long as you arrive, everything will be fine.

Now, those troops that have not yet replaced their weapons with yours are said to be very dissatisfied! Many people have gone to the military headquarters and asked Marshal Ka Nan to replace all troops with your weapons immediately. . . . . .

It is said that Marshal Karnan took this opportunity to severely punish those who accused him of raising the price of weapons indiscriminately, and it is said that several generals lost their positions because of this. "After a round of flattery, Eric leaned into Heisen's ear and whispered a rumor he had heard from others.

"There's nothing we can do. All of us are just trying to make a living. Although I don't want to get rich following our boss, I have never considered the problem of starving. But the prerequisite is that all of us have to work hard to get our jobs done. Hey, your sudden change of guard this time has caused great harm to our team. We almost lost our lives running hundreds of miles here. This time when I go back, I have to have a good talk with our boss. The follow-up service is too... No more, no more, let's finish the work first, and then talk to everyone." After Haisen complained, the maintenance team also came to the outside of the military camp.

"Lao Ma, open the door quickly! The after-sales...the after-sales maintenance team is here..."

Following Eric's call, the camp gate of the 411th Legion slowly opened. After watching the nearly 100 people and over 100 horses enter, the old horse immediately stepped on the monkey's butt.

"Get up, damn it! Hurry up, go and inform all the teams immediately that the after-sales service team is here, and ask them to prepare all the weapons in the evening. They will go to get them tomorrow morning. If the weapons are not gathered by then, they will not care. Go, go!" Looking at the monkey who rolled down the lookout post with a curse, Lao Ma pulled out his weapon, looked at it, shook his head and put it back. "Well, although the weapons of that business are really good now, I still have feelings for this old-fashioned standard sword. It's a pity that they don't repair any weapons that are not produced by their business, otherwise I would send it to them for repair... To be honest, the weapons repaired by those people are really good. Not only can all the gaps and scratches be removed, but the surface of the entire sword will be polished, and even a thin layer of grease will be applied to the well-maintained sword to prevent rust. Maybe I will have to give some suggestions to that business in the future. Let them repair and maintain the weapons that are not theirs. At most, I will pay for it myself... "

Ignoring Lao Ma's mutterings, at this time in the headquarters of the 411th Legion, Legion Commander Kaina was sitting there chatting with his subordinates out of boredom.

"Sir, why did we have to come out in such a hurry this time? Wasn't it said that the military situation at the front was relatively stable? Could it be that those Kastark people fought back?" The deputy commander sitting opposite Commander Kaina asked curiously.

"What counterattack? This time we are so anxious to come out, it's all a secret fight between the two big men in the military. Last time, Marshal Karnan was dismissed and even demoted to managing new recruits and logistics. This time, taking advantage of the issue of weapons procurement and Marshal Sterling's stubborn defense of the occupied territory, Karnan started to fire at Sterling...

We were transferred up here, and the original garrison was transferred to the city of Andler. I guess Marshal Stirling was preparing to take a risk and charge forward.

Don't look at me like that. Marshal Sterling is taking a risk if he is preparing to march. According to my original estimate, Marshal Sterling must be preparing to dig traps in the occupied territories and wait for the troops of the Kastark Empire to jump in.

Although we still don’t know what exactly the Kastark Empire is up to, but overall, with the forces in Marshal Sterling’s hands, if they go deep into the heartland of the Kastark Empire, they will definitely not end up well. . . . .

But now, under the instigation of Marshal Karnan, Marshal Sterling has been forced by His Majesty the Emperor into a state where he has no other choice. If he wants to keep his position as commander-in-chief, the only way is to send troops.

But in order to avoid a major defeat or even a counterattack by the enemy into the empire, Marshal Sterling had no choice but to mobilize heavy troops to block the Andrel Canyon. It was said that he was also preparing to build a fortress directly to block the entire East and West Continents.

But we don't have to worry too much. After all, we are not on the front line. Even if Marshal Sterling fails in the battle, there is still Andriel ahead of us..."

"It seems that we can sleep peacefully at least before Marshal Sterling fails. I really hope that there will be no bad news from Marshal Sterling, otherwise it will be hard for us little people... Hmm! What is that? Why are they so undisciplined? I..." The deputy commander of the corps, who was smiling and sighing to Kaina, suddenly saw a large group of soldiers busy helping a small camel caravan unload something. Slightly angry, he immediately prepared to go out and establish his authority. He had just been transferred here, and occasionally performing in front of his direct superior was also a way to demonstrate his ability.

"No need, those guys will leave soon." After looking up, Kena retracted his attention:

"Those people are here to maintain the weapons used by our army. Well, maybe your previous unit has not yet replaced the equipment of the Ascendant Weaponry, so you don't know them very well.

In fact, this is somewhat related to the last military incident. At that time, Marshal Sterling's faction filed a lawsuit against Marshal Carlton to His Majesty the Emperor on the grounds that Marshal Carlton purchased military equipment at a high price.

But soon, Ka Nan reported the huge drop in the number of troops equipped with the Holy Warriors' weapons to His Majesty, and even brought the original standard weapons and the standard weapons provided by the Holy Warriors to the court. The result was so shocking that all the officers were shocked. The original standard swords ended up in a complete defeat.

Afterwards, Karnan also read out the after-sales service terms of the Holy Warrior Weapon Shop, which embarrassed Marshal Sterling's subordinates. While His Majesty announced that Marshal Karnan had no fault, Karnan once again pointed out that Marshal Sterling's insistence on not moving forward and not working hard to expand the results of the war was a sign of cowardice, and implicitly suggested that Marshal Sterling had a tendency to collaborate with the enemy. . . . .

Although we have no control over the conflict between the two marshals, the after-sales service clause proposed by Marshal Karnan has been implemented in all troops equipped with Holy Warrior weapons since its promulgation.

Like where I am, there is a team coming here almost every two months. Every time they arrive, they will build a small camp in the barracks, sleep peacefully, and start collecting weapons from each unit the next morning, and repair and maintain those weapons.

Generally speaking, they would start distributing the weapons collected in the morning at night, and would finish disposing of all the weapons before midnight and return them to the various troops. Then they would leave the barracks the next day and head to their next destination. " (To be continued)
