Crossing to the Future, it’s Not Easy to Be a Man

Chapter 669: Leader!

He had just received a phone call from the adjutant of the second chief of staff, asking if Ling Lan was here. It seemed that Ling Lan had already registered with the company and had a bright future. Lingquan's Shrew Master. Colonel Yu sighed, and at the same time he became more kind to Ling Lan and others.

Officers who can serve in the staff department all have a delicate mind and are good at pondering the thoughts of the leaders above them. Otherwise, they would not be able to serve as officers in the staff department. Of course, Colonel Yu is also a well-rounded person, and of course he will not do stupid things like bullying Ling Lan. He immediately stopped what he was doing and took Ling Lan to meet with the second chief of staff. His immediate superior was in such a hurry that he did not dare to waste time.

As for the five Qi Longs, I'm sorry, the only person the Second Chief of Staff wants to see is Ling Lan. Of course, they are not qualified to see the Second Chief of Staff. Colonel Yu ordered Yue Lin to take them to the nearby living room to rest temporarily and wait for the end of Ling Lan's interview.

Tong Zhiying had just finished reviewing a document when she heard the adjutant whisper: "Chief, Ling Lan has arrived."

Tong Zhiying nodded slightly and motioned to the adjutant to let Ling Lan in.

Ling Lan came in with Colonel Yu. She saw a major general officer who was about the same age as He Xuyang sitting behind a desk, looking at her seriously, his eyes full of scrutiny.

It is true that Ling Lan, who has just entered the legion, rarely has the opportunity to meet general-level officers, but she is Ling Xiao's daughter. Although Ling Xiao looks gentle and smiles all the time, she does not lack the aura that a general should have. Lan was not afraid when she saw Ling Xiao, so how could she be frightened by Tong Zhiying's look?

She calmly followed Colonel Yu to salute Tong Zhiying and said hello. Her movements were clean and neat, without any fear, which made Tong Zhiying's first impression very good.

Tong Zhiying asked the two to sit down and chat. Seeing Ling Lan sitting upright with a resolute and stern look on her face, a look of satisfaction once again appeared in her eyes. Tong Zhiying's favorite soldier is Ling Lan, who has character and an attitude that is neither arrogant nor humble. Ling Lan's calm and composed behavior from the moment she came in has greatly improved his favorability.

Tong Zhiying's serious expression suddenly softened a lot, and he said: "Ling Lan, right? I asked you to come here this time. It is to convey the appointment letter from General Ling Xiao!"

When Ling Lan heard this, she immediately stood up and said, "Please give instructions, chief!"

Tong Zhiying also stood up, and the adjutant immediately handed over a document. Tong Zhiying opened his expression and read slowly and seriously: "Captain Ling Lan, the captain of the Lingtian team, performed well during the mission and achieved first-class military merit. He was specially awarded the Purple Cloud Medal. At the same time, he was appointed as the commander of the 250th Mecha Regiment, and his military rank was promoted to Major. Taking office today! Appointed by: Ling Xiao."

Ling Lan was stunned after hearing this.

She thought she would get some honorary rewards at most this time, such as the Purple Cloud Medal, but she didn't expect that her father would break the tradition. She was directly promoted as a new recruit to the position of leader of the mecha regiment... This time her father was definitely using his power for personal gain, but damn, why did she think her father was so tall?

Ling Lan deeply felt Ling Xiao's unspoken fatherly love. His heart beat hard several times, and there was a surge of heat in his eyes. She took a sharp breath and replied loudly: "Thank you, Chief, for your trust!"

Ling Lan was stunned, then excited, and then regained her composure. Tong Zhiying saw this series of emotional changes and recognized He Xuyang's vision more and more. This Ling Lan was indeed a talent.

Although the mission written in the appointment letter was exactly what it was, being able to alert General Ling Xiao and receive the Purple Cloud Medal proved that the other party's promotion was actually obtained through military merit, rather than relying on connections. Tong Zhiying put aside the last grudge and truly began to appreciate Ling Lan.

Of course, the interview lasted only a few minutes, and Chief of Staff Tong Zhiying was very busy. After conveying the appointment letter, Ling Lan left Tong Zhiying's office with Colonel Yu.

"Congratulations, Captain Ling!" Colonel Yu said with sincere congratulations. He originally thought that Ling Lan's future would be limitless, but he would have to wait for a while and work hard before he could succeed. Unexpectedly, the other party would now... Already reached the sky in one step.

Despite this promotion, Ling Lan's military rank only changed slightly, and he was promoted to major, which was very inconspicuous. You know, in the entire legion, majors are not a rare thing, it can be said that they are numerous. Because anyone who controls an ace mecha and is in a stable state will be promoted to major, such as Zhao Jun and Li Lanfeng, and some people who have made certain contributions in certain professions will also be promoted to major. Military rank, such as Li Shiyu.

There are also some civilian positions, step by step, and when the age is up, they will be promoted to the rank of major. Although Ling Lan is a bit young, and the rank of major is already rare, looking at the entire federation, there are quite a few people at Ling Lan's age who have been promoted to major, and there really is nothing to show off.

But the military rank should be divided into virtual title and real rank. The virtual title is just a kind of benefit, which means that he can enjoy all the benefits of the military rank, just like those ace mecha masters and Li Shiyu. A false title like this is indeed not very valuable. It only allows the soldier himself to enjoy better national welfare, but the real power may not be much. Therefore, in the legion, there may even be a major general outside, who is not even as prestigious and respected as the commander of an independent corps.

This is also the reason why Ling Xiao has a higher status than the other eleven god-level masters, because Ling Xiao's military rank is a real rank, and he controls the military power of a group army, rather than a god who simply serves as a national intimidation force. Grade Master.

Yes, what moved Colonel Yu was that Ling Lan served as the commander of the 250th Mecha Regiment. This meant that Ling Lan had the actual title of Major, and he would have the authority to command and manage a mecha regiment.

In the legion, the Mecha Regiment is the smallest independent unit. That is to say, starting from the Mecha Regiment, it has the actual command authority of the team. Therefore, the Major Ling Lan has a higher status than the Major Li Lanfeng, Zhao Jun and Li Shiyu.

"If you have any needs from the 250th Mecha Regiment in the future, you can come to me." Colonel Yu said with a smile. Of course, he would not refuse to be friends with such a commander with both strength and ability.

"Then thank you Colonel Yu." Ling Lan thought in her heart, and directly thanked Colonel Yu without rejecting Colonel Yu's kindness.

Although she could ask Chief of Staff He Da for help if she had anything to do, she would feel embarrassed if she always bothered He Xuyang with trivial matters. After all, He Xuyang is her father's first chief of staff, not hers. If you can have a good relationship with this colonel, you won't have to trouble Chief of Staff He Da with everything.

Although Ling Lan has a cold temperament, she is not a person who cannot speak. As time goes by, the two of them get along more harmoniously.

Seeing that it was time for rest, Ling Lan took the initiative to invite Colonel Yu to have a meal with him. Of course at the dinner table. How she continues to communicate with Colonel Yu is none of her business.

How can the five younger brothers she brought have nothing to eat? then. They shouldered the task without hesitation, and the first ones to bear the brunt were Zhao Jun and Li Lanfeng... one was drinking boldly, the other was chatting and laughing, that's how they felt. The deeper we drink, the better we talk.

Um. This is the highest secret of being a boss, everything has a younger brother to serve! Ling Lan squinted her eyes happily, holding tea, and happily watched her younger brothers display their eighteen weapons. Colonel Na Yu was beaten until he was stunned, abandoned his armor, and begged for mercy again and again.

The meal is over. The guests had a great time, and Colonel Yu even became romantically involved with Zhao Jun. He patted Zhao Jun on the shoulder frequently and asked him to introduce him to a group of his friends the next time he was free...

Ling Lan was very happy to be able to deal with an important figure in the staff. After saying goodbye to Colonel Yu, Ling Lan did not choose to go back to Ling Xiao's official residence to rest, but went directly back to the 250th Mecha Regiment.

"Boss, what should we do when we go back this time?" Zhao Jun, who was a little drunk on the hovercar, couldn't help but ask.

Although Ling Lan served as the leader of the 250 Mecha Regiment and seemed to have achieved success in one fell swoop, those who knew the inside story of the 250 Mecha Regiment knew that it was not easy to be the leader. Almost all the mecha divisions in it were useless and had no fighting ability. The mecha regiment is not worthy of being called a mecha regiment.

Ling Lan was closing her eyes to rest. When she heard Zhao Jun's question, she quickly rubbed her right thumb with her index and middle fingers a few times, then opened her eyes and said, "What do you think?"

"Recruit new recruits. Anyway, the mecha regiment still lacks a lot of people. Now these mecha masters can just support them." Li Yingjie knew the origins of the mecha masters of the 250 mecha regiment, and knew that it was not good to treat those useless mecha masters. After dealing with 250 mecha regiments, I came up with this method.

"Li Yingjie's suggestion is very feasible. As long as we control the number of people in the logistics department, we can still form a strong mecha regiment." Lin Zhongqing reconsidered.

"But if you want to train new recruits, it will definitely not take less than thirty or fifty years. I want to go to the battlefield right away. My daughter cannot be the latest chapter of the Demon King." Qi Long seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly gritted his teeth, "Not to mention that The despicable Higurashi Empire has been making more and more moves recently. Everyone knows that the battle with Higurashi is just around the corner. I am afraid that if a war starts in the next few years, we will recruit new soldiers on a large scale. Become the reserve force of the Legion."

As the name suggests, the reserve army must be exhausted by the main force before it is their turn to take the field... But this probability is very small, so their chance of entering the battlefield is zero. At most, they can only become a logistics army to clean up the battlefield after the war.

As soon as he said this, even Li Yingjie, who proposed recruiting new recruits, immediately made a big cross out of his proposal. This group of passionate teenagers don't want to become the reserve army. This is definitely a tragedy for them.

Ling Lan's eyes fell on Li Lanfeng, and Li Lanfeng smiled bitterly and said: "It is definitely impossible to mobilize the mecha masters (sergeants) of other mecha regiments who have become combat-ready, unless General Ling Xiao issues a deployment order... But I believe, General Ling Xiao would not agree."

"Since we don't want to recruit new recruits, we can only dig out the existing mecha masters. I hope Shi Yu's potion can be more powerful and heal a group of mecha masters." Li Lanfeng knew in his heart that this was difficult. After all, these mecha masters The division was declared an incurable cripple by various military experts. No matter how clever Li Shiyu's medicine was, he probably wouldn't be able to do this.

Ling Lan began to think deeply and tapped the armrest with her fingers...

mental illness? Psychological problems? Are they all losers?

The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and strange whirlpools appeared in her dark eyes, and a chill that penetrated into her bones flashed through her.

In this case, let's see if those people are really useless!

The extremely advanced and luxurious training ground built in the 250 Mecha Regiment, which had been idle for a long time, finally fulfilled its responsibilities during this month and ushered in a group of mecha masters for brutal physical training.

Jiang Enhua is an ace master. He is only 33 years old. To become an ace master at this age is considered a talented mecha master. Although he has made a lot of contributions on the battlefield, compared with the aces among the aces such as Nandou Beidou, he is a bit ordinary. Among a lot of mecha masters with various honors, they are even more inconspicuous. .

Jiang Enhua originally had a bright future, but unfortunately everything was ruined in a mecha war that broke out due to friction with Higurashi. He was brutally tortured by Higurashi's top ace master. The entire mecha was completely destroyed except for the control cabin which was still intact...

Later, the control cabin was found by the logistics soldiers who were cleaning up the battlefield after the war. Everyone thought he was one of the lucky ones to survive. Only he knew clearly that he survived because his opponent broke through his psychological defense and begged for mercy in person. He could not forget it. His ugly performance at that time, as well as the other party's mocking laughter and rubbish words. From then on, he no longer had the courage to control the mecha, and he lived in a muddleheaded way. Finally, he was thrown into the 250th Mecha Regiment of the 23rd Army like garbage by the people of their army!

On the first day he received treatment with Li Shiyu's medicine, he didn't endure the pain of even a stick of incense, so he begged for mercy and told his story exactly. His weakness and incompetence made Li Shiyu despise him. He didn't want to waste any more of his medicine, so he left Jiang Enhua to Xie Yiluolang and the others so that they could learn from each other.

But how could Jiang Enhua, who had given up on himself long ago, survive those tortures? He begged for mercy early on, or even fell into coma. In the end, as soon as he arrived at the training ground, he hugged the railing beside the track and howled like a ghost, loudly begging for mercy. In short, he would not die. exercise. Such a mecha master who didn't care whether he was trash or not immediately left Xie Yiluolang at a loss. Even using Li Shiyu's terrifying potion would not help.

Psychopathy can be cured, as can isolation and loneliness. All kinds of resentment, extremeness, and hatred can be cured. Only Jiang Enhua's complete self-abandonment is the most difficult to cure. Unfortunately, Jiang Enhua's disease is the most common in the entire mecha regiment. If one Jiang Enhua gives up, countless Jiang Enhua will give up. Soon, a large number of people fall down in the training ground, no matter how the Lingtian team taunts, curses or whips them , can't let them stand up again. (To be continued)

ps: I am still stuck today, but I feel like the stuck stage is about to pass! What great news.

I will fly to Ningxia tomorrow and there may not be any updates. Dear friends, please be patient and wait for the 21st.
