Heroes of The Sky – Chapter 1249

Scott had been a soldier for over a decade of his life, but his true highest appointment was actually only that of company commander. Although he was later promoted to brigade commander of the 6th Combat Brigade, he always understood why it happened. The higher-ups just wanted to assign someone familiar to Milo.

He carefully counted the duration he stayed as battalion commander and regimental commander. In total, it seemed like he had spent less than half a year in those appointments before he got promoted to the rank of brigade commander.

The expansion of the Northwest Army happened too fast as the number of strongholds under their control increased by several dozen times. As a result, everyone was forced into roles they weren’t ready for. Even the former commander of the Forward Strike Battalion had become the commander of the 3rd Field Division.

Harris had mentioned to Peter on several occasions that he felt overstretched having to step up as a division commander. But according to Peter, no one was born to be a division commander. One could only learn how when they reached that position.

Of course, such fast-tracked promotions would have some hidden dangers as well. Compared to the Pyro Company’s troops, the Panaqua Consortium’s troops, and the Stelaria Consortium’s troops, the Northwest Army lacked foundation. Therefore, there would definitely be some issues when a full-scale war broke out. However, even though Peter wanted to steadily build on the foundations, this era was not going to wait for them.
