www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of My Wife is an Archon!
The engagement ceremony was simple and grand in the All Saints Palace. It was simple because the only guests watching the ceremony were Prime Minister Ashikaga and Consul General Du Cunzhao. It was grand because there was a lot of red tape, and there was a lot of fairy music and Qing'e music. The performance of the hand is really an indescribable wonderful feast for the ears.
At the end of the ceremony, according to the custom of Central Continent, Lu Ming gave the bride-to-be's natal family, the Queen of Qianqiu Temple, a gift list.
However, this should be the last time Queen Qianqiuji appears on the political stage in Japan. In the evening, she will board a special plane to Shengjing.
Prime Minister Ashikaga and Consul General Du Cunzhao were both a little dizzy. They felt as if His Royal Highness Prince Montenegro was engaged to the Queen, and all the Prince's closest followers and honor guards were present.
The so-called brother's identity borrowed?
However, the private life involving the prince has always been shrouded in mystery and cannot be asked or discussed.
In the living room, Yuezhao, who was wearing a magnificent pearl red kimono, led the way and introduced Lu Ming to the post-wedding bedroom prepared by Lu Ming.
In fact, the layout of the living hall is the same as that of the Japanese nobles' living rooms. The left and right grille doors of the hall open into the tatami bedrooms, and the hall is a place for dining, chatting, and even meeting with close subordinates.
It’s just that this living hall is more spacious than the living room of ordinary nobles, but it is mainly because the “hall” is larger. As for the two bedrooms on the left and right, it is also slightly wider. After all, if the place where humans sleep is too big, it will There is no sense of security, so the real bedrooms of ancient emperors are often not very big.
Opening the grille door on the east side, Yuezhao said softly: "It's a little simple, husband, don't blame me, I'm living in the west. You can go to the west when the time comes, or you can call... here." He lowered his head slightly. , a red cloud rose on her pretty face.
Lu Ming smiled, finally looking like a normal woman, but he didn't know if he was pretending on purpose, and nodded: "Not bad." Suddenly I felt something in my heart, and said: "You have been frightened recently, and then you are engaged to me. Thinking about it, you are exhausted and mentally exhausted. Next, take good care of yourself. We will see you in the next year!"
The moon shines without saying much, Yingying bows down and says, "Husband, I am in good health!"
……
Lu Ming opened his eyes. The room was dark, and he was lying on a Western-style bed.
Get up and open the door. Hong Ling Seventy-two is outside. After saluting, he respectfully handed over a letter.
This is a small courtyard located in Star City in the Western Region, where Lu Ming has been sleeping as Lieutenant Colonel Bit.
The letter was written by Candice and sent to the secret mailbox they had agreed upon. It was also published in the newspaper and informed in code words that Hong Ling 72, who has been here all the time, buys the "Western Region Times" every day. Then I went to get the secret message.
Opening the letter and reading it, Lu Ming was slightly startled.
Candice said that Lieutenant General Denitz is looking for you and wants to reactivate you.
Lieutenant General? Lu Ming was greatly surprised. When he looked down, he realized that Dönitz had been appointed as the chief of the First Control Western Region Headquarters and was promoted to the rank of lieutenant general.
In fact, Dönitz is now the real ruler of the Western Regions. The native governor of the Western Regions Autonomous Prefecture is worse than a puppet. He is basically a decoration.
Dönitz came to power obviously because of the explosion of the White Tower, which destroyed all the biochemical weapons and biochemical troops, which dealt a huge blow to the "Magic Stick" faction. Dönitz's faction made a comeback and made great gains in the recent political struggle. Total victory.
In Candice’s letter, she reassured herself that in the final investigation report of the White Tower tragedy, Dönitz criticized the chaos caused by the "magic sticks" who changed their orders day and night, and the "love" they did to her conscientious self. I highly appreciate the "Road Village" and "Love the Road Volunteers" models.
Of course I don’t have to take the blame anymore.
Candice wants to call her after receiving the letter. She can also go directly to Nicolo City. Now she is the head of the intelligence headquarters of the First Control Western Region Headquarters.
Looking at the letter, Lu Ming hesitated for a moment.
pacing in thought, finally, he said to Hong Ling Seventy-Two: "Call the three of them and get ready to go to Nicolo."
Jin Zhi Shimi, Suo Diluo and Shiva Nu were also brought here to live in seclusion. Lu Ming left a backup plan. If he still needs to act as Bit, these three "partners" must Indispensable.
However, I didn’t expect that Bit would be out of the mountain so soon.
I originally wanted to be busy before and after the new year. After the new year, I would marry Yuezhao and become the regent, and focus on smoothing the relationship between Japan and Japan.
If Bit is going to come back now, this period of time will be too chaotic.
But the opportunity was rare, and it was to enter the headquarters of the First Control in the Western Region. After considering the pros and cons, I still felt that I should seize this opportunity.
A fierce battle with the Sonia people in the Western Region is inevitable, and there may even be preparations for a battle-level war.
To a certain extent, this brutal battle in the Western Region will even determine the fate of the principality.
I have been thinking about various ways to break the situation. Obviously, it would be a great benefit if I could enter the core power circle where the Sonyans rule the Western Region.
……
The last time I left Nicolo City was more than a year ago.
The headquarters of the First Control in the Western Region was the original palace of King Nile, but it has been transformed to look more and more like a Sonia-style building.
In a lounge with a snow-white Western sofa and coffee table, Lu Ming met Merkel again.
During this period, he was still doing general affairs and logistics work, but he served as deputy, first deputy minister of the General Affairs Department of the First Control Western Region Headquarters.
"My good brother!" Merkel gave Lu Ming a big hug when they met.
Lu Ming smiled and said: "Merkel, are you going to be promoted again?"
Merkel shook her head repeatedly and said with a smile: "Now it is no better than before...Bit, you have been promoted this time, and the general recognizes your ability." She lowered her voice: "The general specifically told me, too. Let me remind you that the competition between us and the Montenegrins in the Western Region is about to enter a fierce stage. From now on, we must proceed from the overall situation. The entire Western Region is in our hands, so we cannot mess around and put national affairs first."
Lu Ming smiled: "Yes."
Merkel looked at him disapprovingly and wanted to give a few words of advice, but thought about it and forgot about it.
This guy immediately surpassed him in military rank. In the eyes of the general, he was a talent and a capable person, so he kept looking for him.
As for myself, the general did not let me control the general affairs and logistics, so naturally I was worried about myself.
Place yourself in the general affairs department, that is, be an eyeliner and keep an eye on them so they don’t mess around.
The status of the general is getting higher and higher, the structure is different, and the ideas are different from before.
It is the so-called capable people like Bit who are favored.
Merkel gritted her teeth, feeling really uncomfortable.
The door was suddenly pushed open by a guard, and Dönitz, dressed in military uniform, stepped in.
"Haha, sit down, sit down, I'm relieved to see you're safe!" Dönitz made a gesture and looked at Lu Ming with an extremely easy-going expression.
Sitting on the sofa, Dönitz looked at Lu Ming and said: "I told you on the phone that from now on, you have to arrest the police. In a few days, we will have a military rank awarding ceremony. By then, Your letter of appointment will also be official. I have high hopes for you, so don’t let me down!" As he spoke, Dönitz patted Lu Ming on the shoulder.
"Yes!" Lu Ming stood up and saluted.
Denitz nodded with satisfaction: "I have to take care of some things, you have a good rest these days!"
After standing up, Dönitz patted Lu Ming on the shoulder again, then turned and left.
Lu Ming saw Merkel's unnatural expression fleeting and said with a smile: "Let's go have a drink tonight. It's been a long time since we last saw you. I miss you very much!"
Merkel nodded: "Okay."
……
A few days later, Lu Ming was awarded the rank of colonel in the Kingdom of Sonia Army and appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Western Region Police Corps.
In Dönitz's vision, the police force will actually be built into a puppet army and servant army that can truly cooperate with the Sonia Legion and have a certain combat effectiveness.
As for the security forces in the nominally autonomous prefecture, they are originally a ragtag group and are not directly led by the Sonia military. Dönitz has requested that its personnel be greatly reduced and the more capable ones be incorporated into the police corps.
The total strength of the police protection corps and various regional units will reach about 30,000.
In addition, a Sonia Infantry Regiment directly under the corps will be allocated and reorganized into the Gendarmerie Regiment of the Police Guard Corps.
Lu Ming will also serve as the commander of the Military Police Regiment.
Armed trains made by the Sonyans will also be delivered soon and equipped with the gendarmerie regiment of the police corps.
In fact, judging from the size of the police force, the commander-in-chief Lu Ming should be at least a brigadier general, or even a major general.
For example, the acting commander-in-chief before Lu Ming came was a brigadier general, but "Bit" did not have a deep background, and he was promoted too quickly by chance. Even now, the Sonia people are already preparing for a war with Xiheishan Fort, so they are making all kinds of exceptions. There are many things, but the current promotion speed of "Bit" has reached the limit.
Dönitz was extremely dissatisfied with the progress of the previous acting commander-in-chief's preparation of the police force. Only then did he remember "Bit", the founder of the police protection model, and reactivated it.
But the military rank can only be like this for now. In fact, Lu Ming's deputy position originally had a brigadier general, but Dönitz transferred him away in order to establish Lu Ming's prestige as soon as possible. As for Lu Ming's deputy position and his next Colonel is the standard military rank for senior officers, including the chief of staff, logistics director, etc. of the police protection corps. They all have the rank of colonel. The captains of each unit include colonel and lieutenant colonel.
Basically, those at the school officer level are Sonias assigned to serve as the chief officers at all levels of this servant army.
