Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Time has changed, as Great Xia’s strength rapidly progressed in recent years, the number of Cold Resistance Level individuals in the Nine Towns Territory also soared. Three years ago, the Military Department led a revision of military merit regulations, now, the rule is that a Cold Resistance Level enemy with less than 8 bristles counts as 1 point; 8 to 24 bristles counts as 2 points; 24 to 40 bristles counts as 3 points; enemy generals above 40 bristles count as 5 points…

The change in military merit calculation came with Great Xia’s strength growth, meaning that the difficulty of Xia people’s nobility has always been ridiculously high.

In battles, killing 500 Cold Resistance Level enemies is difficult for just about any soldier, even top experts above 50 bristles, even strong Xianyang Level, struggle to achieve this.

Not to mention, 500 military merits is only the lowest ninth-rank Xuanling Marquis.

Great Xia’s nobility advancement conditions are stricter, each rank upwards doubles the required military merits, thus the eighth-rank Chixiao requires 1000 points, seventh-rank Qingming requires 2000, sixth-rank requires 4000, fifth-rank requires 8000…

Xu Ning followed Xia Hong since the Mud Slope period, not only being among the first Xia people, but also among the first batch of nobles after the Longyou battle.

He holds a high position, thus having more channels to obtain military merit compared to others, not to mention more opportunities, yet even so, from year two to year thirteen of Great Xia, eleven years in total, his accumulated military merit just reached over 6700 points, currently only a sixth-rank Marquis Zidian.

It’s worth noting that in the seventh year of Great Xia, he alone explored Dajue Temple, risking half a life for a mere 1000 points of military merit; had it not been for Xia Hong saving him later using Master Wusheng’s organs, he’d still be a cripple now.

This shows the difficulty of obtaining military merit in Great Xia!

“It’s been over three years since my noble rank moved, it’s about time to advance…”

Xu Ning turned to look at Yuan Cheng and Luo Yuan, feeling a slight thrill.

The highest noble ranks in Great Xia are, of course, Minister Xia Chuan and Director Yuwen Dao from the Military Department. Both are already fifth-rank Jinque Marquises. In this battle, both served as army commanders, with high rank, great authority, and heavy responsibility, naturally advantageous when evaluating merits and assigning rewards. It can be anticipated, once the battle ends, both will advance at least two ranks, maybe even further to directly become second-rank Marquis Taiwei.
