Chapter three hundred and forty-three, the attitude of the imperial fleet
Chapter 343, The attitude of the imperial fleet
At this moment, the captains of this fleet were all gathered in the mothership headquarters. They all sat up straight in their seats and looked at their commander and chief of staff.
"Don't you wonder why I didn't just rush into the Zhengyang Star Territory to arrest that traitor?" the Major General Commander asked, crossing his fingers.
Everyone present said in unison: "That's not surprising!"
Then a colonel at the front said carelessly: "Commander, it's a good thing if we don't pursue. The whole fleet is not willing to pursue. You must know that he is the lieutenant of our imperial army and the robe of our imperial army.
Being framed by the second generation of bureaucrats and deprived of all identities for no reason has become a traitor. Who the hell is willing to hunt for the bureaucrats! If you hadn't forced us to go to the Zhengyang Star Territory immediately, I would have wanted to land on the Wader Planet.
Give those guys a try!"
Several colonels, who were obviously very confident, all joined in and expressed their dissatisfaction with the bureaucracy.
The commander and the chief of staff next to him looked at each other. The chief of staff smiled, while the commander sighed.
Indeed, had it not been for the pressure from above, I would have been unwilling to accept such a task.
Damn it, a dignified imperial lieutenant, just because he disobeyed a second-generation powerful man who didn’t even have an official status, was deprived of his status by the second-generation father-in-law and became a criminal.
Damn it, the imperial lieutenant can be persecuted so easily, but what about the lieutenant colonel? What about the major general? I’m afraid you only need to be a few levels higher than that bullshit governor to persecute him, right?!
"But, this is an order issued by the Ministry of War. If we..." At this time, an officer said with some anxiety.
When he said this, all the officers looked at him with contempt. Some of them were so angry that they even wanted to curse.
The commander stopped him: "Don't get excited. Don't you understand your brother's temperament? I am saying this for the good of our fleet, and I am not prepared to disobey orders. But now the traitor has left the Zhengyang Star Territory and is unknown.
He is missing, so the mission cannot be completed for the time being. We will return to the base after notifying the military headquarters."
All the officers couldn't help but nodded with relief. As for the previously reported Lin Dongyun who rebelled and fled to his fiefdom, they all deliberately forgot about it.
Damn it, Lin Dongyun’s fiefdom is in a desolate star field. Who knows where it is? And even if he knew it, who would be willing to travel hundreds of millions of light years to get there? There is no cost for energy? There is no cost for damaged battleships? Soldiers work overtime.
No need for subsidies?! If you have this money, why not share it to make everyone happy?
"Putting aside the pursuit for the moment, let's talk about the current situation in the Imperial Capital." The commander said, nodding to the chief of staff.
The officers' faces immediately became serious.
The chief of staff spoke: "Brothers, I believe you all know the current situation in the imperial capital."
The same colonel who was the first to express his position interrupted: "Chief of Staff, we know this, and we don't know what the civil servants in the cabinet are doing. His Majesty has been gone for so long, and the new emperor has not been elected yet. What happened in Qinglin is now
The empire actually doesn’t have an emperor yet, do they want to use the cabinet to control the world?”
"Shut up! Listen to the chief of staff!" the commander glared and yelled, and then motioned to the chief of staff to continue.
The Chief of Staff was already used to the arrogance and domineering nature of the battleship captain, and there was no need to pay attention to such an excited guy. Instead, the guy who had always been calm was his competitor.
Logically there is a level gap between a brigadier general and a colonel, so how come they are competitors?
It's very simple. The successor of the fleet commander is usually selected from the chief of staff and two battleship captains. If the battleship captain is selected, he will directly become a rear admiral.
Therefore, the only two battleship captains who dared to talk to the chief of staff on an equal footing were.
"The brothers present here are all the backbone of our fleet. I believe that you have also been attracted by several forces in the imperial capital." When the chief of staff said this, another battleship captain who had been silent immediately expressed his position: "I only listen.
The commander’s!”
The colonel who was scolded before also immediately reacted: "That's right! We all only listen to the commander. Whoever the commander says we will side with, we will side with!" Other officers followed suit and expressed their stance.
The commander was very pleased and waved his hands and said with a smile: "Shut up! Everyone, sit down and listen quietly to the chief of staff!"
"Yes!" The officers immediately sat down.
The chief of staff doesn't care about this order and prohibition. After all, he obeys the commander and is competing for the commander's successor position, not a direct replacement.
The chief of staff said: "After the commander's decision, we decided to side with the harem."
Everyone was shocked, especially the two battleship captains. Although they were only colonels, and there were many battleships in the army, any battleship was an important force of the empire, so they also encountered several powerful factions in the imperial capital competing for the throne.
Things to win over.
Although it is impossible to express his position, he will still consider which side he should stand in the battle for the throne.
Commander Youwei has considered the eldest prince, seventh prince, and ninth prince, but he has never considered the power of the harem.
Although the most legitimate one is actually the harem, the weakest one is also the harem, so we don’t consider it.
But the commander actually chooses the harem now? What's going on?
Of course, the chief of staff began to analyze the various forces. Only in this way can he show off his abilities.
After listening to the analysis, everyone was even more confused, because the harem is the weakest no matter what, so if you want to burn a cold stove, this is not the way to do it, right?
The commander finally came out and said the decisive words: "Are you wondering why I chose the harem? Because the harem promised that as long as the new emperor supported by the harem ascends the throne, the fleets we support will be able to choose to station on a certain administrative star! And!
The military and political power of this administrative star are all under the control of our fleet! That is to say, if the harem wins, we no longer need to live in the meteorite base in frustration! Instead, we can directly garrison in the bustling administrative star!"
Wow, all the officers were in an uproar, and they were all red-faced and roaring excitedly.
It is not surprising that the fleet officers reacted so hugely. Regardless of the imperial army, the imperial fleet in particular has a high reputation in the empire and is regarded as the backbone of the empire's strength.
But in fact, all fleets are far away from the administrative star and stationed at important checkpoints.
These levels are all modified by meteorites.
Moreover, when there are military operations, people rush to fight in a hurry and rush back again.
Some unlucky ones even served in the military for decades and never made it to the administrative star level again.
If it is to protect the empire, then the officers of the imperial fleet will be happy even if they are far away from prosperity. Hard work is just hard. After all, there will be no shortage of food and clothing, and the treatment will be good.
But unfortunately, what is the current situation of the empire? The warships of the great powers can directly sail to the administrative star and dock at the administrative star to replenish and cultivate.
I, the backbone of the empire, are pitifully hiding in the meteorite base, unable to see the world!
And the most frustrating thing is that when the fleets of the great powers enter the territory of the empire, it is like entering an uninhabited land. The face of the imperial fleet has long been swollen.
Is it because the imperial fleet does not have the courage and spirit to go to war with the great powers?
No, how could a soldier not have the will to fight? It was just suppressed by the cabinet, that is, the civilian class.
The civil service class represented by the cabinet needs peace in the empire, because only peace can allow them to indulge in corruption from top to bottom with peace of mind. Because of peace, the military attachés cannot compete with them for power.
Therefore, the imperial officers who have been feeling aggrieved are not excited when they hear that the harem is actually so generous that they will allocate the administrative star to the imperial fleet as a base!
