Forty-eight promoted to lieutenant general
After Ed's voice fell, the conference room was quiet.
It's not that Ed's proposal is too outrageous. If you really want to talk about military merit, only Liang Xingchen is stronger than Lin Fan in the entire federation.
But the key is that he is too young. He has just turned 20 years old, is he a lieutenant general?
Liang Xingchen was promoted fast enough, and he became a lieutenant general at the age of 35.
For a time, all the staff did not dare to vote casually. Everyone looked at you, and you looked at me, and they couldn't make up their minds!
"It seems that everyone has concerns. If you have any concerns, let's talk about it and discuss it together?"
Ed looked around the staff and knew very well what they were thinking, which was nothing more than a question of seniority.
"Vice President Ed, the key is that Lin Fan is too young. He's only 20 years old, and the lieutenant general is still leading a fleet. Wouldn't it be too fast?"
"Yes, Liang Xingchen, the youngest lieutenant general in the history of the Federation, was also promoted at the age of 35!"
"That's right, young people should still polish their temperament for a few more years!"
All the staff members kept saying one sentence and one sentence, in short, the problem is two words, age!
Is age an issue? If it is a peaceful era, it is indeed a problem, because there is no way for soldiers to obtain military merit in a peaceful era, and it is understandable that they can only rely on their qualifications.
But is this a time of peace? It's a time of war for the survival of the Commonwealth. Well, what's a war time to look at? Look at ability, look at military industry, age is a ball!
"Your concern is nothing more than age. I want to ask you one thing, now that it is about the survival of the Federation, do you want a 20-year-old commander who is capable of defeating the Ox Empire? Or a 50-year-old who is incapable of defeating the Ox Empire. Commander?"
"This..."
In the conference room, everyone was silent.
Yeah, what time is it? Is it time to talk about age, seniority?
"And, where do you think the artificial gravity system came from? Where did the curvature engine technology come from? Where did the energy shield technology come from? Where did the nuclear fusion technology come from?"
"Lin Fan is not only for his achievements, but also for other contributions. It is not an exaggeration to give an admiral. Now you are using his age as an excuse, and you are not even willing to give a lieutenant general? Do you really want the battleship of the Ox Empire? Stopped in the earth's orbit, did you know that you regretted it?"
Eddie said with a hateful expression on his face, while Lin Zhen said nothing during the whole process. After all, he was his own son. It would be bad if he came out. !
"Vice President Ed, you are right, I agree with this proposal!"
"Indeed, nothing is more important now than defeating the Ox Empire. As long as it can win, even a ten-year-old child can be retired. I agree!"
"Me too!"
"Shhhhhhhhhhhh..."
Soon, all the staff in the conference room raised their right hands and passed unanimously.
"Okay, since the unanimous vote has passed, then I will promote Lin Fan's rank to lieutenant general, and appoint him as the acting commander of the First Fleet until he becomes an admiral and then becomes a regular!"
Seeing that all the staff had no objection, Lin Zhen stood up and announced.
As for why it is an acting commander, this is actually very simple. In the federal system, the lieutenant general is only the squadron commander of a fleet, and the fleet commander is the admiral.
And Lin Fan is now a major general, and he can't be promoted to admiral directly, so in order for Lin Fan to become the commander of the First Fleet with the rank of lieutenant general, he can only use a compromise method, that is, acting commander .
three days later.
Lin Fan was notified by Jiang Hai early in the morning to report to Liang Xingchen's office!
"Boom..boom..boom..."
"Come in!"
"Report Commander, Lin Fan was ordered to come and report!"
"Um,
You are here today to announce an order! "
Liang Xingchen stood up and said with a smile! And slowly walked in front of Lin Fan.
"Human Federation, the 101st Task Force of the Fourth Fleet, Commander Major General Lin Fan. After taking over the 101st Task Force, he has made many military exploits and played a decisive role in the second asteroid war. He has outstanding military merit and is specially awarded. Federal lieutenant general!"
After Liang Xingchen finished reading, he picked up the lieutenant general's shoulder title from the table, and immediately replaced it for Lin Fan.
"congratulations!"
"Thank you Commander!"
"Don't thank me first, there is another order here, Lin Fan obeys!"
"Yes, Commander!"
"In view of Lieutenant General Lin Fan's excellent commanding ability and tremendous military exploits, Lin Fan is hereby appointed as the acting commander of the First Federal Fleet! I look forward to making persistent efforts to restore our human beings as soon as possible!"
This time, Lin Fan was a little shocked. In his expectation, he should have obtained the commander position of a squadron and commanded 1,000 battleships.
As a result, what did Liang Xingchen say just now? Appointed as the commander of the Federal First Fleet?
Although it is an agent, that is also the commander of the First Fleet, a full 20,000 battleships!
About the First Fleet, Lin Fan knew that the Fourth Fleet had finally recovered to 20,000 battleships after five years. The newly built battleships were prepared for the reorganization of the First Fleet, and now there are 5,000 ships. battleship.
And now that the Federation uses industrial robots in large quantities, the production efficiency has increased many times, and tens of thousands of warships can be manufactured every year.
In other words, in addition to supplementing the loss of the Fourth Fleet this time, it only takes one and a half years to make up for the establishment of the First Fleet.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the task: the general's rank will be promoted to lieutenant general, and the brain will be rewarded for developing medicine manufacturing technology."
"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the task: become the commander of a squadron with a scale of more than 1,000 ships, and will be rewarded with a detailed explanation of level 1-6 civilization."
"Ding, because the host overcompleted the task: get a detailed explanation of the hidden reward level 7 civilization."
"Ding, the ultimate assessment task for the novice stage (the first stage) is now released: drive the Ox Empire out of the solar system, the task time limit is three years! (There is no reward for this task, and the host needs to complete all three stages of the ultimate assessment of the novice stage before obtaining it. Reward, the reward is to upgrade the system to the official version!)”
There was a system sound in my ear, two more tasks were completed, and one of them was over-completed. In addition, the 3000 knockdown tasks were achieved in the 016 area of the asteroid belt before, and the three tasks issued by the system have all been announced. Finish.
What made Lin Fan a little puzzled was the new task that the system had just issued.
It's not that there is a problem with the content of the new task, but the ultimate assessment task for the novice stage that the system said!
Could it be that this system is still a novice after ten years? And it's still a beta version? Do you need to complete all three-stage tasks before upgrading to the official version?
In short, Lin Fan's mind is now endlessly complaining.
After playing for ten years, I realized that you are a fake!
