Vol 2 Chapter 1132: The history of the development


Helmut explained to Heliga in detail that the operating mechanism behind the system of the "chaser regiment" - for Heliga, this is also an area that he has never understood before.
"Hunter" is essentially a customary term for the best mercenaries-and the so-called mercenaries actually include private military contractors (PrivateMilitaryCompany) owned throughout the mainland. They provide military weapons rental, military training, and mercenary services in a small area. This pattern began to appear as early as a hundred years ago, and in modern times, due to different national conditions, traditional civilian military services have begun to move in two different directions in Calvard and Ereponia.
Ereponia will use the corresponding services, almost all local nobles, and some large-scale chaebols. They need some means of the underground world to arm themselves-the earliest mercenary model is almost all alone, and then there may be a very small number of like-minded colleagues to form a group for warmth, forming some small-scale early groups, in order to share the loss and improve stability degree. However, as the appetite of the nobles and chaebols grew, the civilian armed group formed by a few people could no longer meet their needs. Therefore, large-scale civilian armed groups have emerged.
Of course, in addition to directly facing the enemy on the battlefield of various meanings, these mercenaries also need to face various problems-one of which is the logistics of various operations. Although many people always talk about strategy and tactics when expressing opinions on military-related topics, in fact, logistics and intelligence are the key factors for the actual success of military operations. Therefore, since there is an early mercenary group that uses many mercenaries as group operations, it will naturally also produce downstream industries that provide them with corresponding logistics and intelligence services.
"So, according to your opinion, the predecessor of the hunting regiment "Ned Hogg" is such an alternative civilian military organization that provides logistics and intelligence services in a wide area? "Hilijia asked.
"Not bad." Helmu nodded his head. "However, the people who do their business are like all kinds of bright industries. They will always be affected in various ways. Those who would have chosen to become mercenaries, most of them are It's some stragglers, some warriors who have gone to evil ways, and a small number of direct-line armed forces that have been cultivated since childhood. But before and after that, something changed this business."
"I mean "The Hunter of the North". "Heliga understands what Helmut means-there are not many organizations or individuals that would use large-scale mercenary groups, so the small industry in this underground world can barely maintain a balance. Some small problems, hiring those who do not The stragglers belonging to any organization can be solved at a cheap price. It is really impossible to find the ace mercenary groups that are well-known in the industry. Those arms smugglers, intelligence dealers and professional mercenary logistics services can also follow a lot of points. Corresponding oil and water. Gradually, the best of them are called "hunting soldiers", and although this business is dangerous and despised by the bright world, at least, as long as you know some ways, you can still live a small life. .
It's just that the existence of "The Hunter of the North" has greatly impacted the market that was originally stable. As a mercenary organization, "The Hunters of the North" has the following characteristics: first, it has a large number; second, it is well-trained; and third, it lasts forever.
Regarding the number of people, this is easy to understand. The main force of the "Northern Hunters" was originally part of the regular army of the duchy after the collapse of the Grand Duchy. Although they have changed from loyal warriors to defending the country to hounds that bite their prey, the original regular army was born and possessed the entire autonomous prefecture as a supplementary personnel. At its peak, the "Northern Hunter" had a scale of nearly 30,000, including all kinds of logistics and auxiliary troops. This is far beyond the reach of the "private companies" with hundreds of people.
Secondly, as the original regular army, in addition to combat troops, many members of the "North Hunters" were born to understand the importance of logistics and intelligence, and at the time of its creation, they had already divided these departments. meaning. Although the "Northern Hunters" tended to split after the death of Barestan Dazo, there are now dozens of independent hunting regiments, but each of them also retains corresponding logistics and intelligence systems, so they are born It is more advantageous than military companies that need to contract out corresponding services.
Finally-when the "North Hunter" was born about 20 years ago, many people thought it was just a flash in the pan. Because such a large group of tens of thousands of people is unlikely to last for a long time. After the death of Barestan Dazuo, seeing the "Northern Hunters" tending to split from unity, many people are overly optimistic that the day when the "Northern Hunters" dominates the hunting market is already over. ended.
It's a pity that even though Barrestan was dead, his deputy, General Gregory, known as the "Arrow of God's Might", stood up at a critical moment and stabilized the situation. Although today's "North Hunters" is still divided, at least they can listen to the mediator's opinions on some key issues. Since "The Hunter of the North" still has the actual spiritual leader, although the situation is different from before, the resounding sign of the "Hunter of the North" has not changed.
Therefore, the emergence of a long-standing, large-scale professional military group like the "Northern Hunter" has greatly impacted the original underground world order. In order to fight against the high-quality, low-cost, and well-trained "North Hunters," many civilian military companies have to hug and keep warm like their predecessors. However, compared with the kind of little troubles of their predecessors, the changes brought about by this so-called "second hug" are also huge. Just like the world on the table, the merger of corporate capital in those countries that believe in a free market economy-the same thing is happening in the underground world that has been disrupted.
Among them, "Ned Hogg" is one of the winners. This small company, which used to be a West Semlia intelligence and logistics group, has begun to move towards a road of integrated development-although the gap between the "Red Constellation" and the "West Wind Brigade" is not small, it is in the leader's Properly managed, the "Ned Hogg", which pursues absolute self-interest, has also grown into a top hunting regiment in the Western Continent. As their name as a comprehensive hunting corps gradually started, people gradually forgot the once inconspicuous "Ned Hogg".
However, according to Helmut's statement-"Ned Hogg" early existed as several major intelligence centers on the western continent of the empire. Except for the "Westwind Brigade", which has its own unique intelligence network, many small-scale mercenary groups and self-employed individuals actually rely on them as intelligence relays to feed themselves. Whether it is accepting entrustment or being responsible for conveying remuneration, or negotiating the details of the contract, they are very good at these things.
Therefore, even though many years have passed-Heliga felt that there might be value in trying.
At the same time Heilijia made up his mind, the hunting regiment "Niederhogg" also sounded the death knell of future demise.
