I am Noble

00369 Let's do mine.

The daily work of Secretary of Defense Kim Sung-ju begins with reading a newspaper in the executive office.

Since there are no wars between countries because of monsters, it is often said that the Ministry of Defense should be abolished. Of course, this is nonsense spoken by ignorant idealists or immature children. The presence of the beast has reduced the excessive competition between humans, but it has not eliminated the army itself. War is gone, but we still need an army.

However, the purpose of the military was changed. Previously, the Tactical Manuals used to hypothetically make other troops enemies, but now they have been turned into support missions for Monster Raid.

“Minister, we have a problem. ”

At that moment, the door of the Oval Office opens wide and an earthy aide enters. Secretary Kim frowned lightly. I hate being interrupted by newspaper subscriptions.

“What's all the fuss about? ”

“Shields up! ”

At that moment, Secretary Kim almost woke up and fell. Fortunately, I was able to avoid causing trouble in front of my subordinates. He is so surprised that he stutters to the rest of the horse.

“A shield? Is it here? ”

“Yes!”

“No, what's going on? ”

“I don't know.I heard they do sightseeing.... ”

What a friggin 'frozen tour! Secretary Kim has turned pale and quickly tidied up the newspaper on his desk.

A shield is a slang used inside the Ministry of Defense to refer to the Jennis Assault Captain. It is referred to as a slang, because it is a major figure that is not equal to the president. I was in a commotion because someone like that came to me unannounced.

“Welcome, Chairman. What brings you here so heavy a step... ”

“I want to know what my country is capable of defending monsters. ”

“If so, the Crystal Management Division jurisdiction... …. ”

“I've already been there. And the Ministry of Defense is also an organization that works with Raid. ”

I can't believe I've already been there.

Secretary Kim led Yeong-woong around sweating. This is too much. The commander warns us in advance when scouting the reserve troops, giving us plenty of time to clean up. Is it okay for a superior or a superior to the President to be here without prior notice? This isn't really manners.

“…… in this way, the three shore troops are expected to respond immediately through close cooperation. ”

“Hmm.”

“Our most important role in a monster raid is to buy time until an attack party is deployed. Our troops have always maintained the highest level of vigilance with the idea that all of them will be shields on behalf of the people. ”

It was a sudden visit, but Secretary Kim briefed in his own way. He highlighted key information such as the role of the general military in Raid and the Three Armed Forces system.

Yuyuang's status is very unusual. Legally, he is an individual, not a public official. There is no power to say such things to government agencies.

However, Kim worked hard to explain military secrecy. Although it was originally a violation of the law, no one would have a problem with this because Yusuf was already a superlegal being in Raid administration.

Ji-Woong occasionally nodded and listened as she opened her mouth after briefing.

“I spoke to the soldiers during the Fizz Japanese transport. I heard a very strange story. ”

“Yes? What is it? ”

Secretary Kim sighed and froze again. Other four-star generals who participated in the briefing also pulled their facial muscles tightly.

"What kind of lunatic is this? ’

Secretary Kim changed his mind. It seems that some soldier was talking nonsense because he didn't know the one who was as high as heaven. I'm worried that he didn't say "civilian."

“I heard the sergeant's salary is ₩ 290,000. Is that true?"

“…… Yes? ”

Secretary Kim was dumbfounded for a moment when he asked the unimaginable question. I couldn't figure out what was so strange.

“Is that true?"

“Yes, it's true. But why...? ”

“Isn't that absurd? You force a healthy young man to work, lock him up for three months a year, and give him only ₩ 290,000 a month? ”

“Chairman, the military is about the burden of every young man, not the radar. There may be some exceptions due to health or the home environment, but it is basically a defense obligation that everyone has to bear equally. ”

“That's right. Our country is not yet ready for recruitment. But it's improved a lot compared to when it was three years old. And my salary went up tremendously. ”

“Conscription is inevitable for my country.... ”

As if the adults had just let it go. If you're talking about the Military Islands, they have a habit. Even though the opponent has more power than the President, he's only 24 years old. You'll be able to push with your horse enough.

“I'm sorry, but I think you have me completely mistaken. ”

“What are you talking about……. ”

“I haven't said a word about recruitment or conscription. The same goes for reduced military time and so on. I didn't know much about military reality in the first place, so I'm not going to ask you to change it like that. I'm not an expert.”

“ ……. ”

“I'm just pointing out that I think this is clearly wrong. Why don't you pay the soldiers a minimum wage? Isn't this strictly exploitation? ”

“Chairman, the duty of the military is sacred... ”

“Captain Jungwoo, stop it. ”

The invisible man was about to fall into the Three Thousand Cannons again. Secretary Kim quickly dried Park to explain. He understood Yusuf's meaning first.

“So you're saying the salaries of the soldiers are too low? ”

“Yes, again, I have no idea what the military is. But we must protect what we protect. I think anyone deserves a fair price for what they've done. An institution where the conscripts recruit people to serve as soldiers, not to recruit them for free? ”

Janice assault commander raises questions about the legitimacy of the conscription?

There is no reason to recruit soldiers for free as a draft.

Are you going to reform in decades?

The world is noisy again. The president sighed at the newspapers on his desk. It was in the press before it even reached out.

“You're always on topic. ”

“Isn't he the most famous person in my country? and the incidents around them don't stop. ”

“Isn't President Young-woong related to his general military duties? Why are you suddenly interested in this? ”

“Secretary Kim Sung-joo told me that he met with soldiers in a Japanese dispatch fleet. ”

“The issue of military service in my country is a sensitive topic.... ”

It was noisy, such as the Internet. People were biting each other, fighting, and busy like the meat that met the water. As always, we argue over polarization rather than narrowing the argument. It always happens when you talk about the military.

- So, a woman has to go to the army? Chairman Janice is really funny. Are you going to send your sister or wife to the army?

- You don't go into the army because you're a radar. Honestly, I liked it very much personally, but this is not good. Yalmin.

- I can't help it. I don't know about the military, but now that you're here, who's going to go to the military to recruit? We may not have a war, but we still need an army. Rather, the military did more work than they did in North Korea.

On the Internet, the support group and the opposition group were similarly divided into tight spheres.

- I think the story's leaking into the wrong place. I've read the interviews, but I didn't tell him to send a woman to the army, and I didn't tell him to drop the draft. Reduced military time and so on.

All I'm saying is, let's give the soldiers at least the minimum wage. Then why are you here when you're pregnant and you're talking about recruitment?

― To be honest, I think the assailant General is right. If you're gonna take a healthy young man and lock him up and take him back, you better pay him well. This is no time in the Joseon Dynasty.

- Actually, the rationalization of enlistment and salary is not the opposite concept.

At first, the debate started in the wrong place, as always. The issue, however, gradually returned to the correct trajectory.

Ji-woong doesn't know the pros and cons of conscription or recruitment, and which one is more suitable for Korea now. He also knows that he shouldn't change things like that just because he doesn't like it.

But people think they should be paid as much as they work. The state may impose a compulsory military duty on the people, but it must not justify the free suspension. This was made into an issue with the courage that it must be changed because it is clearly wrong.

- But is it a budget?

- You'll need at least 20 trillion extra a year. If you give 300 per soldier, it's 600,000, so that's just 22.6 trillion. Soldiers' salaries only.

- Where did that money come from all of a sudden? The other departments must have a lot of money to spend.

Congress has finally begun to take this matter seriously. In fact, it is not complicated in the institutional sense. I'm not reforming the military, I'm just raising my salary to a reasonable level.

It was easy to say, but I couldn't figure out where to make that money. Not a penny or two. Where do you get over 22 trillion budgets?

- What's our annual budget? It's a waste of money, but it's not a joke. If you keep it down and keep your budget organized, you can make money for soldiers' salaries. Don't underestimate the power of the First Reid.

- But it's not something you can do for a year or two. Anyway, if I start working on the remodel from now on, I'll get paid well when I join the army. Hooray! Hooray!

Governments and parliaments have announced that they have taken the reform work seriously. A butterfly's wings are lucky enough to cause a hurricane, but a giant's words produce a storm as soon as they are pulled out of its mouth.

“We think we can change the budget. I think I can raise the salary of the soldiers to normal level from the second half of this year. ”

“You see, I can and I won't. You have to say what you want to say. Just put it into practice. ”

Nam Ki-chul smiled bitterly.

“And then an official came from Germany. He wants to ask for an Expedition Raid. ”

“Away Raid? Did the Black Mob show up in Germany? ”

“No. The Red Mob has appeared in the region north of Frankfurt and has requested its destruction. ”

“But I'm not the level to go after the Red Mob anymore.... ”

“I think the Germans know. Janice Reserve has requested an expedition raid. I talked to Team Leader Jang Tae-jun, and he said he has enough reserves. ”
