"Lieutenant Kane, please help contact the military hospital and ask them to do their best to treat Warrant Officer Mace. If there is any lack of medicine, I will contact the Eighth Army Corps and allocate it there as a priority." Major Hank ordered.
An officer in lieutenant uniform nearby nodded and dialed the hospital's communication point.
Almost at the same time, the young man closest to Major Hank whispered, "Major, I just received news that two members of the main branch of the Mace family have arrived overnight and are expected to arrive at the military hospital soon."
He was not actually the instructor resident at the school, but an adjutant under Major Hank.
In fact, his presence in this school seemed a bit redundant. He did not teach students, nor was he assigned here to accept a quota like many other officers present. He came to the school as Major Hank's adjutant, and his main job was to assist Major Hank with military affairs during his time at school.
In fact, according to the military system of the empire, generally only colonels can be equipped with adjutants. These adjutants need to serve as assistants to their superiors, assisting in handling general affairs and military affairs, and even serve as vanguards in wars, which is similar to the position of a confidant secretary.
However, this is only the system on the surface. The military system that has been maintained in the empire is somewhat unsuitable for the current situation of the military.
In this era of military prosperity, the empire's military force had already reached a certain scale, almost two or three times the size of the empire's initial establishment. The entire organization system was complicated, from the lower-ranking soldiers to the senior generals, and the number was large to a certain extent.
This also ensures the dominance of mankind in the interstellar space. However, to operate such a large and complex military machine, not to mention the huge amount of resources required, the human resources required are not ordinary.
But no matter what era, no matter how prosperous the military is, the number of people who are truly capable of serving as officers is still small, which means they are destined to command more and more junior soldiers and take on more military duties.
But a leader can have strong leadership, excellent judgment, foresight and foresight... However, no matter how strong a person is, he is still just one person and cannot do everything at once. At this time, a capable and powerful adjutant becomes their perfect partner.
In the past, adjutants were assigned by the army. Generally, when a rank of colonel was reached, the army would select a junior officer from below who had the best degree of cooperation with him as his adjutant.
Then the future of this adjutant is almost entirely dependent on the officer he follows. And when the officer has made military achievements, he can also be allocated some military work according to the rules. This is also the unspoken rule of the chief adjutant mechanism. Therefore, if you can follow a powerful officer, the promotion path of this type of adjutant will generally be very smooth, not inferior to self-struggle.
As the tasks of the entire officer corps became increasingly heavier, even some lieutenant colonels and majors in important positions began to need assistant adjutants.
However, it is not realistic for the Empire to modify the military system at present. The military feels that it is better for them to make their own arrangements and form an unwritten rule rather than arguing with the noble parliament on this issue.
Therefore, some lieutenant colonels and majors can also have their own adjutants by applying. However, their adjutants are usually selected by themselves, and cannot be selected through the open military system like colonels. The treatment of these adjutants is no different from the latter, and they have military ranks recognized by the military.
Major Hank came from a famous military family in the capital star. However, his generation had been divided into the side branch. His grandfather was once one of the candidates for the succession of the main line, but he was separated from the main line after losing the election and was gradually marginalized.
But Major Hank himself was extremely talented, and as an outstanding graduate of the Capital Military Academy, he was promoted to sergeant upon graduation, and he made many contributions during his ten years at the border and was eventually awarded the rank of major. He was already a highly regarded person in the family, and this adjutant was also selected by the family to be by his side.
So this adjutant is also a member of the Hank family, and he and Major Hank are of the same blood.
He also knew very well that applying for medication from the military was not something that could be done casually. After all, the military was not a charity organization, especially for people from different corps, whose sources of resources were naturally different.
That Warrant Officer Metz was on the probation list of the Third Legion. Although he had not yet officially joined, if nothing unexpected happened, he would definitely join the Third Legion once he was promoted to the rank of lieutenant.
However, Major Hank and his family belonged to the Eighth Legion. If they wanted to apply for medicine for Warrant Officer Mays, they would have to use Major Hank's quota.
The major was only allocated a limited amount of medicine in the legion, and Major Hank was reluctant to use it himself, but he gave it to an outsider all of a sudden. The adjutant was naturally unhappy.
So when he learned that the Mays family had already rushed here, he couldn't help but remind Major Hank, hoping that the other party would retract this overly generous decision.
"No need to say anything more, just go ahead." Major Hank stopped the adjutant from speaking and said to the lieutenant who also stopped to speak after hearing what he said.
Hank said in a deep voice to the unhappy adjutant: "I thought... a hero who was willing to sacrifice his life to protect the citizens of the Empire should not lose his life at the best age. He did what he should do, so I should do what I should do."
Seeing his superior's firm attitude, the adjutant finally took a step back and stopped trying to persuade him. Although he looked unhappy, he helped the hospital connect to the Eighth Legion to request special medicine.
Major Hank nodded and was about to say something to Stark in front of him.
Suddenly, the large screen in the middle of the conference table was directly connected, and the entire image was projected. After seeing the people and environment displayed on the other side of the image, the slightly noisy conference room suddenly became quiet.
"Lieutenant Lando." Major Hank asked the person on the screen, and the other party saluted and greeted the major, then directly reported the situation of the evidence collection to everyone present.
"… We brought back a total of 1,872 pieces of star beast corpses from the scene. We confirmed that the group was Yin's acid sulfonate ants, a total of 53 individuals, a small, mobile group. The average mental strength is above D-level, and the physical strength is C+. They are not toxic, but the acid sulfonate they secrete has a relatively large impact on the brain area of the awakened."
"The king-level acid sulfonate ant that severely injured Warrant Officer Mace is in a slightly strange state. It is currently assessed to have an A+ mental strength and an S-level physical strength. Its pheromones are also clearly inconsistent with the pheromones of the group it leads. Preliminary judgment is that they seem to have been forcibly mixed. It was eventually killed by Warrant Officer Mace's mecha, and the crystal core will be transported back with Warrant Officer Mace's mecha later."
