158: Legion appointment

[System Prompt: Congratulations! Your legion has successfully obtained control of Weixing City. Your legion will receive 30% of the tax revenue from all towns under Weixing City's jurisdiction! Note: Legion tax revenue can be distributed by the Legion Commander.]

Huh?

When this digital sand table lit up, this message suddenly popped into Li Xiao's mind, and everyone present received the same message.

Liu Nian said with a greedy look: "Wow! Legion tax revenue can actually be distributed? Doesn't this mean we can take out the hundred thousand Star Coins our squad saved before and split them up?"

"Split your head! Three cities need Armored Personnel Carriers, and now Weixing City needs to build a military factory soon. This little bit of money isn't even enough to buy resources!"

Qin Luming was a straightforward guy and didn't give a damn about Liu Nian, even though he was the automatically inherited Vice Legion Commander.

"Brother Luming is right. Legion tax revenue cannot be touched; it must be prioritized for the operation of the military factory!"

At this moment, Yun Ying, who hadn't spoken much, suddenly spoke up. She had been managing the tax and resource allocation and military production for the previous three cities, so once she spoke, Liu Nian had to shut up.

Li Xiao laughed: "I just took a look at the legion official position introduction. Everyone doesn't need to worry about the tax revenue. Actually, if you divide that tax revenue among all legion members, there isn't much per person."

"The system has already allocated a basic daily salary for all legion officials, which is also deducted from the tax revenue of various places and does not occupy the legion tax revenue. Although it might only be a few hundred now, the more territory we have, the more you will get!"

"Really? That's better!" Liu Nian said indignantly: "In order to manage the squad and legion well, my own base's development has lagged behind quite a bit. Otherwise, I wouldn't be so anxious to split the tax revenue."

Yun Dongliu patted Liu Nian on the shoulder: "Brother, who hasn't? As a high-level commander of the legion, one must have a spirit of dedication, otherwise how will the brothers below respect you? If everyone gets benefits, they will naturally trust you more."

"Alright! Since everyone is here today, I will take this opportunity to appoint the legion's official positions. I will designate the positions directly below. Does anyone have any objections?"

"No objections!"

"No objections!"

"Definitely no objections!"

The dozen or so people present were all key members of the Xiaoyao Squad. They all knew Li Xiao's role in the current legion very well. Everyone understood that without the many armored vehicles and fire support Li Xiao brought to the legion, they wouldn't know when they would be able to defeat the 129th Group Army.

"Then I announce!"

At this time, everyone present stood up. Li Xiao looked at the crowd: "Vice Commander Liu Nian, previously you concurrently served as the commander of the Xi City troops. Now, you will no longer concurrently hold the position of Xi City troop commander, and you will be responsible for the overall operational planning of the entire army!"

Liu Nian saluted everyone: "Brothers and sisters, I, Liu Nian, will definitely do my best to serve the legion!"

"Chief of Staff and Minister of Intelligence! Yun Dongliu!"

Yun Dongliu had been responsible for formulating combat plans and gathering intelligence, so there was no problem with him taking these two positions.

"Minister of Logistics! Yun Ying!"

Yun Ying was also in charge of logistics resource allocation, so the position of Minister of Logistics was naturally no problem. She said a bit shyly to everyone present: "I hope everyone will cooperate and understand regarding the distribution of logistics resources in the future!"

Facing such a cute young beauty, Tang Wu, Cheng Mo, and others present were very proactive and expressed that they would absolutely cooperate.

"Minister of External Affairs! Xuan Yu!"

Xuan Yu was wearing a training uniform today, and the grass-green military shirt on her upper body showed off her proud figure vividly.

Regarding Xuan Yu's public relations skills, Tang Wu knew best. This time, when capturing Weixing City, she had also secretly scouted the situation of several surrounding squads, ensuring that no one reacted, which provided a relatively stable external environment for this battle.

"Qin Luming, appointed as Staff Officer and Commander of the First Regiment, responsible for the defense of Xi City. All members within Xi City are to be assigned to the First Regiment."

"Tang Wu appointed as Staff Officer and Commander of the Second Regiment, responsible for the defense of Hengshui City. Member assignment is the same as above!"

"Cheng Mo appointed as Staff Officer and Commander of the Third Regiment, responsible for the defense of Zhaoming City. Member assignment is the same as above!"

Qin Luming and the other two stood up simultaneously and saluted everyone.

Now everyone had begun to get used to using military salutes to express their consciousness and emotions; the military style was imperceptibly being instilled into everyone's minds.

Li Xiao thought for a moment and said: "The official positions below the battalion level of each regiment will be decided and appointed by each regiment itself. As for Weixing City, I will be responsible for its defense for the time being. However, Xuan Yu, you still need to work hard to win over the local players and small squads in Weixing City."

"Understood, Commander..." Xuan Yu nodded seriously.

After the meeting, Li Xiao stayed in the command headquarters alone. He carefully checked the information about Weixing City. This second-tier large city provided a total of 10 million resources every day, which was twenty times that of a third-tier small city.

Around Weixing City, there were tens of thousands of individual players and squads of all sizes. Before this, no one could touch this cake of 10 million resources.

Now that this cake had been obtained by the Xiao Yao Army, and relying on the title of an invincible army, he was confident that he could attract more players to join.

Of course, what made Li Xiao a bit happy was that the tax revenue of Weixing City was actually 40,000 to 50,000 per day, which was something he hadn't expected. Although it wasn't much when divided equally.

But when concentrated, it could accomplish quite a few big things.

When he was free, Li Xiao noticed that this wave of world announcements had attracted countless friend requests and legion joining requests.

Li Xiao didn't pay much attention to the friend requests, but the joining requests were quite significant, with tens of thousands of individual players from all over Tian Yu, and even hundreds of squads requesting mergers.

Li Xiao didn't impulsively agree. If a good team didn't absorb members with planning, it would soon collapse from the inside due to interests.

He first closed the friend requests and joining requests, then sorted out the gains from this battlefield.

In this battle, the Xiao Yao Army lost 1.4 million troops. Tang Wu and Cheng Mo's troops also suffered heavy losses, each losing more than 300,000, especially in Armored Personnel Carriers.

In order to counter the enemy's Armored Personnel Carrier and tank attacks, they had to mobilize Armored Personnel Carriers to go up and use anti-tank missiles for suppression.

However, the number of Armored Personnel Carriers in the east and south was over 200 each. After they fired a round, they were hit by targeted retaliatory strikes.

The two Armored Personnel Carrier units were almost completely wiped out, but they also caused severe damage to the enemy.

When the enemy retreated after the city was broken, they had cumulatively destroyed over 170 Armored Personnel Carriers and over 50 main battle tanks, and the remaining remnants had no ability to pursue.

So, throughout the battle, they destroyed a total of 570 Armored Personnel Carriers and 250 main battle tanks, accounting for about three-fifths of the total vehicles of the 129th Group Army.
