If Chu Jungui asked Su Jian to participate in the battle, it meant that he didn't have the ability, and Li Xuancheng didn't have the ability. But they didn't know at this time that within the dynasty, Su Jian's letter of invitation had already provoked
There was a big commotion.
At the end of the longitudinal line, a moderate battle had just ended. Countless wreckage was floating in the void. Some lifeboats carefully avoided the wreckage, searching for drifting people or corpses.
The surrounding electromagnetic environment is extremely chaotic, and the survival signals automatically sent by the armor can easily be drowned in the electromagnetic storm. Many times, lifeboats have to rely on optical detection to lock on the life-saving signals.
More than a dozen transport ships slowly dragged two huge shipwrecks into the distance. The diameter of these two pieces of wreckage alone was more than 500 meters. They looked like the head and tail sections of the battleship, while most of the ships in the middle were
I don't know where I'm going.
Not far away, the wreckage of a heavy cruiser was being fixed by two transport ships. There were several terrifying large holes in its hull. Even two-thirds of the middle section had disappeared, leaving only a few broken structures that barely connected the hull.
At the same time, many engineers flew in and out of the cave like bees, dragging out people or equipment from time to time.
At the edge of the battlefield, a huge fleet was parked quietly. In the center of the fleet were four huge starships, all of which were capital ships.
In the middle is a battleship painted in blue and white, which is now famous. It is Xu Bingyan's flagship "Glacier".
In the central command area of the flagship, Xu Bingyan stood in front of the star map, quietly listening to the report of the officer next to him. There were more than a dozen pipes hanging from the ceiling, connected to Xu Bingyan's armor. There were more than a dozen people in the area behind him
Doctors and nurses nervously stared at the analysis data and adjusted the flow rate of drugs in each tube in real time.
A doctor hurriedly walked in and said loudly: "This won't work, you must rest! You must ensure at least 4 hours of sleep every day to maintain the lowest level of health. How can you rely on medicine every day now?"
Xu Bingyan didn't seem to hear, but concentrated on watching the battle report, while the staff officer next to him reported various military affairs at a very fast speed.
The doctor glanced at the data on the screen and said with a very ugly expression: "Five medicines have been overdosed! You must sleep now!"
Xu Bingyan finally sighed and said, "Give me another half hour, and then I promise to sleep for one hour."
The doctor wanted to say something else, but Xu Bingyan waved her hand. This was a sign that could not be refused, so all the medical staff left quickly.
After all the medical staff left, several generals walked in and began to report various confidential military affairs. Most of the time, Xu Bingyan listened to the report and dealt with it on the spot in a few sentences, which was concise and efficient. But when a general reported on the 4th Fleet,
, Xu Bingyan rarely fell into thinking.
After thinking for a full minute, Xu Bingyan said: "Reject all seven applications for investigation of Su Jian."
The general was taken aback and said, "Isn't this... not very easy to operate?"
"You have to do it even if it's not easy." Xu Bingyan glanced at him and gave a rare explanation: "He is following me, so I still need to take care of him. Don't worry, I will take the responsibility."
So the report continued, but after only a few minutes, Xu Bingyan stopped again and put her hand on her forehead: "Su Jian invites you to fight?"
An admiral next to him said: "He took the initiative to apply to return to the front line, but the reorganization of the 4th Fleet has just begun. Currently, the starships are short of 35% and the personnel are short of 27%, and they are all in the secondary supplementary sequence.
, it will take at least 8 months to reach full strength, and at least 3 months of training and exercises to barely achieve combat effectiveness."
Xu Bingyan gently rubbed her eyebrows and said lightly: "He is interested in the position left by Lin Xuanshang."
The admiral frowned and said: "There are many people eyeing that position. If ranked in order of importance, there are at least three candidates who have priority over him. Shouldn't we be more cautious about this matter?"
Xu Bingyan said slowly: "No, no one will give that position. I will personally serve as the commander of the 9th Fleet."
The surrounding generals were all surprised.
Xu Bingyan seemed to know that they were puzzled and said: "Good steel needs to be used on the blade. Only in my hands can the 9th Fleet display its true power, not even Lin Xuanshang. His ability to lead troops is better than fighting. If possible,
I really want to hand over the 4th Fleet to him."
But Xu Bingyan looked at the people around her and said, "Of course that's impossible, and he won't do it. Let's continue."
The generals continued to report. After a while, the alarm clock rang and everyone exited the room. Xu Bingyan pulled up a chair, adjusted the tube that delivered the medicine, and lay half-ly on the chair, sleeping for the first time in three days.
An hour later, Xu Bingyan woke up on time, dragged more than a dozen medicine tubes, and walked to the star map. When he stood still in front of the star map, two generals came in quietly, waiting on the left and right.
Already.
One is a general, obviously older, that's all. Next to him is a major general, who looks to be in his early thirties, which is a bit too young. Although his appearance does not equal his true age, he can appear as a major general.
Being around Xu Bingyan is certainly intriguing.
The rear admiral handed over a sealed document bag and said: "The latest personnel appointment proposal from the Starfleet Joint Command Headquarters."
Xu Bingyan took it, opened it, and read it page by page. After reading it, she closed her eyes and meditated for a long time before saying, "Let everyone outside come in."
The major general was startled, looked at the light screen in Xu Bingyan's hand, and said, "Marshal, this..."
"It's okay, I just want to say this."
The major general did not dare to disobey and walked out of the door. After a while, more than a dozen generals filed in, almost all of them were generals, except for one lieutenant general.
Xu Bingyan looked at their faces one by one, raised the light screen in his hand, and said: "You should have seen this thing when you were promoted to military rank, and you know what it is. Some of you have already followed me
Ten years, this is the longest period. I can’t help it. I have been promoted relatively quickly in the past ten years, and ten years is the longest period. The shortest period is only two years with me. But you all have one thing in common.
, that is, from the beginning of the Battle of the Longitudinal Line, from the day I established this combined fleet, you have been by my side."
His voice slowed down a bit and he said: "Although I am not very old, my shortcomings are very clear to the entire dynasty, which are protecting shortcomings, remembering the past, and holding grudges. So even if I see many of your names on this document,
In fact, it doesn’t matter. After all, some of the nominations were made by me. But..."
This "but" sound was sweet and soft, like the sound of nature, but nearly half of the generals actually trembled subconsciously.
Xu Bingyan turned around, turned her back to everyone, looked at the star map, and said slowly: "Among the five candidates for the commander of the 9th Fleet, three are standing here, and two of them are even higher than Su Jian.
.”
Among the generals, there were two generals whose faces were as sinking as water and as motionless as mountains. There was no difference at all.
Xu Bingyan turned around and said: "Is a marshal that important? That's right. If it wasn't important, you wouldn't have spent so much effort and made such a big determination. Putting yourself on this list will cost you so much.
Not small, right?"
He raised the light screen in his hand and continued: "The only vacancy for marshal is the commander of the 9th Fleet, so you all put your efforts into this. Even if I said long ago that the 9th Fleet cannot move, it is still the same.
.Chen Botong, you are ranked first on the candidate list, so tell me what is special about the 9th Fleet?"
Chen Baitong is tall and burly, with a majestic face and a steady and powerful voice: "The candidate list is nominated by the joint command and appointed by the wartime cabinet. Marshal Xu, this is a dynasty rule, and it is not something you alone can have the final say on."
Xu Bingyan's beautiful eyes stared at Chen Baitong, her eyebrows gradually stood up!
He suddenly hit the light screen in his hand hard on Chen Botong's face, with such force that the light screen immediately shattered into pieces. Chen Botong was caught off guard and was hit, and blood immediately flowed down his forehead. But Xu Bingyan made a move.
It was so big that two of the medicine tubes on his back were torn off, and blood immediately poured out from the joints of the armor.
Several generals rushed over, supported Xu Bingyan, and hurriedly helped him connect the medicine tube.
Xu Bingyan's face was pale, her eyes were bloodshot, and there was no blood at all on her lips. He pushed away the general who was supporting him, and his pleasant voice became a bit sharp due to excessive anger: "I can make you have
If you have enough merit to enter the candidate list, I can also force you to do all the dirty things that those in your family have done. Why?! With my position as the commander-in-chief of the combined fleet? Let me tell you, it is because of my manipulation.
Fight all the way from the starting point of the line to here! Just because I have killed five entire federal reorganized fleets! Just because I have beaten up all the famous generals in the federation!"
Xu Bingyan pointed at the star map angrily and roared: "Winning is the overall situation, the foundation of everything, and the cornerstone of your useless relatives and children who can run rampant in the dynasty and still be promoted! Chen Botong, the 9th Fleet is really
It’s up to you, who can you beat? Cromwell, Austen or Frederick?”
Chen Baitong's face was ashen and he said nothing. These three names have all been the lingering shadows of many generals in the dynasty.
Xu Bingyan's voice suddenly rose, as sharp as a soprano singing an aria: "Before I completely cripple the Federation, if anyone dares to make any small moves in secret, don't blame me for being rude! I can do anything!!"
He closed his eyes, his chest rose and fell rapidly, and his long eyelashes kept trembling. No one in the room dared to make a sound or move, and they all stood like sculptures.
After a moment, Xu Bingyan slowly opened her eyes, and her voice became soft and sweet, floating gently, like feathers brushing everyone's ears: "When we penetrate the Federation, at least half of the people in this room can be marshals.
What are you fighting for now? Look at your little potential!"
