A lieutenant colonel was already so powerful. If there was a colonel or senior colonel in this group of field officers, how powerful would they be? The soldiers who didn't want to accept the food given to them by 250 Ace Mecha Clan because of Lin Zhong-qing's words suppressed their anger when they saw the field officers.
At that moment, Yan Zheng, who had already arrived at the command center to watch the assessment, sighed when he saw that only 30 people passed. He smiled bitterly and said, "Regiment Commander Ling, after those bastards finish their dinner, I will bring them back." It was too embarrassing. Even an elite ace couldn't withstand a single attack from a lieutenant colonel.
"The lieutenant colonel who attacked is called Li Yingjie. Although his rank isn't high, he is the leader of Team 10," Ling Lan said calmly.
Actually, the rank of lieutenant colonel wasn't as normal as Ling Lan said. This rank was enough for one to be the commanding officer of a mecha clan. Most people would be intimidated by this rank.
The reason why a lieutenant colonel wasn't worth much in 250 Ace Mecha Clan was because the lowest rank in 250 Ace Mecha Clan was a lieutenant colonel. The merits gained from the battle on Planet Haijiao allowed all the mecha operators who were originally majors to be promoted by one rank. Only a few mecha operators who were originally senior colonels couldn't be promoted to major generals due to various reasons. In the end, they used other methods to compensate for it.
Because of the merits of this battle, all of them were promoted to non-commissioned officers, while the original non-commissioned officers were promoted to lieutenants. As for the lieutenants, many of the lieutenants and senior captains were promoted to major due to the amount of military merits they had accumulated.
Just like that, a strange mecha clan appeared. Now, there were many non-commissioned officers and lieutenants in 250 Ace Mecha Clan. Field officers could be easily found but not a single normal soldier could be found.
However, with the addition of new people, this strange scene might be broken. However, it was just a possibility.
Yan Zheng was touched by Ling Lan's words. He knew that Regiment Commander Ling was giving him a way out. Their elite ace lost to their team leader. It should be known that the team leaders of 250 Ace Mecha Clan were all peak-level ace operators. Some of them were even half a step away from becoming imperial operators. It wasn't embarrassing to lose to their opponent.
Yan Zheng knew that he was just comforting himself. Otherwise, the young face of that lieutenant colonel was enough to make him feel ashamed.
"As for these unqualified people …" Ling Lan was silent for a few seconds before she said, "There's no hurry to bring them back."
Yan Zheng was stunned. He didn't know what Ling Lan meant.
"Let them train here for a week and then take the logistics assessment." Ling Lan said the decision she had made a long time ago.
"Huh?" Logistics? Did he hear wrongly? Yan Zheng was dumbfounded.
Although these soldiers didn't pass 250 Ace Mecha Clan's mecha operator assessment, they were still mecha operators. Even if they weren't mecha operators, they were still outstanding talents from other branches. The division headquarters didn't want these talents to be buried so they placed them in the unused prep department to wait for opportunities. If they were willing to be logisticians, they would not have stayed in the unused prep department for so long. They would have been snatched away by other mecha clans.
"As for you, Director Yan, you will cooperate with Department Head Lin during this period of time to complete this mission. Okay, it's decided. " Ling Lan didn't care how shocked Yan Zheng was. She didn't give Yan Zheng a chance to speak. She just made the decision like this.
"Huh?" Not only were the soldiers detained by 250 Ace Mecha Clan as logisticians, but he was also detained? Yan Zheng swallowed his saliva in the face of the cold and domineering Ling Lan. He said with difficulty, "Erm, Regiment Commander Ling, I still have things to do in the unused prep department. I'm afraid I can't stay here for long …"
"Since all the soldiers in the unused prep department have been brought here, there's no need for you to stay there anymore." Ling Lan glanced at Yan Zheng indifferently and announced her decision.
"But the headquarters …" Yan Zheng wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. Even though he knew that Ling Lan's words were unreasonable, he was still suppressed by Ling Lan's aura. He didn't dare to refute her decision. He could only try his best to find a way to save himself.
At that moment, Yan Zheng suddenly felt his wrist vibrate. Someone was contacting him through his communicator.
"Regiment Commander Ling, I have a phone call." Yan Zheng suddenly heaved a sigh of relief. He could finally escape from Regiment Commander Ling's oppressive gaze and let him calm down.
Ling Lan glanced at the communicator on his wrist. Yan Zheng hurriedly raised his hand and revealed the call request light. This meant that he wasn't lying.
"It's time to send out the document. Pick it up," Ling Lan said calmly.
"Oh, okay." Yan Zheng subconsciously followed Ling Lan's instructions.
He pressed the button and the virtual screen opened. A beautiful female officer appeared on the screen.
"Are you the director of the unused prep department, Major Yan Zheng?" The female officer asked gently.
"Yes, I'm Yan Zheng." Yan Zheng's expression turned serious. He knew this female officer. She was one of the workers in charge of sending out notices from the headquarters.
"I'm a worker from the headquarters. My number is XXXXX." After the female officer introduced herself, she continued, "Now, I'm sending out an order from the headquarters. The director of the unused prep department, Major Yan Zheng, will be transferred to 250 Ace Mecha Clan's logistics department as the deputy head. He will be promoted to lieutenant colonel and will assist the head in managing the new recruits. Lieutenant Colonel Yan, please accept the order. "
Yan Zheng was stunned by this sudden order. He was dumbfounded.
"Lieutenant Colonel Yan, please accept the order." The female officer noticed that Yan Zheng didn't accept the order she sent over so she reminded him again.
"Oh, okay." Yan Zheng finally woke up from his daze. He quickly accepted the order.
Soon, the order was received. Yan Zheng opened it. It was just as the female officer said. He was transferred to 250 Ace Mecha Clan and became the deputy head of the logistics department. The headquarters was afraid that an outsider like him would mess up the operations of 250 Ace Mecha Clan so they specially specified his responsibilities.
Yan Zheng smiled bitterly. He didn't expect that no matter where he went, he still couldn't escape from being in charge of the soldiers from the unused prep department. However, this was good too. He was worried about leaving them in 250 Ace Mecha Clan.
"Since you received the order, rest well tonight. Tomorrow at 8 am, prepare to go to the logistics department and report to Head Lin." Ling Lan saw that Yan Zheng had no more questions so she ordered him.
Yan Zheng was still in a daze but Ling Lan's order made him raise his right hand instinctively. He saluted and said, "Yes, regiment commander!"
After walking out of the command center, Yan Zheng finally regained his senses. He looked at the order on his communicator and sighed after a few seconds of silence.
So, Regiment Commander Ling wanted to destroy them from the start. Yan Zheng wasn't stupid. After thinking carefully, he understood Ling Lan's real intention. It was funny that he tried so hard to sell those soldiers to Ling Lan. He was afraid that Ling Lan wouldn't accept any of them.
Even though Ling Lan was the young master of the 23rd division, she still needed to go through a set of procedures to transfer an officer. This set of procedures couldn't be completed in one or two hours. It was possible that the moment Ling Lan entered the unused prep department, she had already started doing this.
Unknowingly, he had fallen into her trap. Yan Zheng turned around and looked at the command center. Although he couldn't see Ling Lan, he still had a hint of fear in his eyes.
Even if Regiment Commander Ling lost his ability to operate a mecha and his health, with this scheming ability, he would be able to reign supreme for the rest of his life.
Lin Zhong-qing asked Li Yingjie's team to bring the 2500 soldiers to the cafeteria while he went straight to Li Shiyu's medical center.
He walked straight into Li Shiyu's personal laboratory. As expected, Li Shiyu was there.
Hearing the sound, Li Shiyu walked out of the sterile laboratory and went to the laboratory outside.
"What's the matter?" Li Shiyu was surprised. Lin Zhong-qing should be the busiest one among them. There were a lot of logistical matters. Although He Chaoyang and Li Jinghong helped out, they didn't have Lin Zhong-qing's charisma. They still needed Lin Zhong-qing to make the decisions. Unless he had something to do, he wouldn't have the time to visit him.
"Do you have any special healing medicine? The kind that only needs to be cured within four hours?" Lin Zhong-qing didn't beat around the bush. He went straight to the point.
"Yes." Li Shiyu's eyes narrowed but he still answered.
"How much do you have?" Lin Zhong-qing continued asking.
Li Shiyu's expression turned serious. He was silent for half a second and asked, "What do you want to do?"
"Training." Lin Zhong-qing didn't intend to hide it. Of course, he couldn't hide it either. Maybe he could successfully hide it from others but he couldn't hide it from Li Shiyu. Similarly, he couldn't hide it from Boss either.
"You want to train in the first half of the night and then use the healing medicine to recover in the second half of the night?" Li Shiyu instantly understood what Lin Zhong-qing was planning.
"Why?" Li Shiyu asked seriously. Why was Lin Zhong-qing so eager to become stronger like Han Jijun? He could have done it step by step. After all, he wasn't like Han Jijun. He didn't have Li Lanfeng to constantly remind him that he was lagging behind.
Lin Zhong-qing's eyes darkened. He didn't answer for a long time. Just when Li Shiyu thought that Lin Zhong-qing wouldn't answer his question, Lin Zhong-qing opened his mouth. "I don't want to be weak. Especially when that annoying fellow thinks so …"
He was confident that he could dodge that elite ace's attack. However, he couldn't defeat that elite ace in one move like Li Yingjie. Unknowingly, the gap between him and Li Yingjie had become so big. He didn't know why, but the image of him being humiliated by Li Yingjie in the Scout Academy appeared in his mind again …
If it was Zilong and the others who attacked, Lin Zhong-qing wouldn't be so affected. However, it was Li Yingjie who attacked. Lin Zhong-qing didn't feel good … Did he really think that he was weak? Wasn't this a form of humiliation?
Anyone could lose, but that bastard couldn't lose! I will become stronger. Next time, I will definitely attack before that bastard attacks. Then, I will tell him that I, Lin Zhong-qing, will solve my own problems. I won't let him interfere.
Li Shiyu saw the fire burning in Lin Zhong-qing's eyes. He sighed in his heart. He knew that he couldn't stop Lin Zhong-qing. He turned his head and opened a medicine box. He took out a row of medicine and passed it to Lin Zhong-qing. "This is one week's supply. Ask me for more after you use it."
"Thank you, Shiyu." Lin Zhong-qing took the medicine gratefully. He was thankful that he had a friend who supported him silently.
"However, don't overdo it. Remember to give yourself four hours of recovery time. If you don't heal your old injuries, you will get new injuries. Not only will you not be able to increase your power, but it will also cause permanent damage to your body," Li Shiyu reminded him repeatedly.
"I will be careful," Lin Zhong-qing replied seriously. Lin Zhong-qing replied seriously. He wanted to increase his strength, not destroy himself. Lin Zhong-qing was much calmer and more rational than Han Jijyun.
Lin Zhong-qing took the medicine and left the lab. Li Shiyu sat quietly in front of his lab table. Suddenly, he smiled. "It seems like I have to work hard too. If not, I will be left behind by them." Li Shiyu was touched by Lin Zhong-qing's hard work. He made a decision.
"However, before that, I have to complete the second generation of the Nuwa agent." Li Shiyu knew what he had to do now. "I didn't expect our regiment commander to successfully auction off the rights to the plants on Planet Juhao. Although I don't know which of the three corporations it is, the amount sent over this time is enough for me to use."
"I hope that the second generation of the Nuwa agent can completely heal our regiment commander's injuries and awaken his body's self-healing ability." Li Shiyu's expression was cold. This was their last hope. If it still didn't work, their regiment commander wouldn't be able to operate a mecha anymore. This was a pity for their regiment commander, who had terrifying control ability and talent.
Lin Zhong-qing had just returned to the command center when he received a call from Ling Lan. She wanted him to go and see her.
There was only Ling Lan in the command center. Oh, there was also Little White, who was talking to Meng Lan.
Seeing that it was Lin Zhong-qing, Little White ignored him and continued talking to Meng Lan. Of course, only they could understand their conversation. Other people could only hear Little White's chirping and Meng Lan's standard smile.
"Boss." Lin Zhong-qing shouted. He woke up Ling Lan from her deep thoughts.
"Sit." Ling Lan gestured for Lin Zhong-qing to sit down. Lin Zhong-qing chose to sit to the right of Ling Lan. His posture was upright.
"I called you over to tell you that a person called Yan Zheng will report to your logistics department tomorrow. He is the deputy head of the logistics department." Ling Lan directly told Lin Zhong-qing the reason for calling him over.
Lin Zhong-qing's expression changed. He looked up at Ling Lan and said, "I understand, Boss."
"During this period of time, the logistics department is on your shoulders. It must be hard on you," Ling Lan said.
"No, Boss," Lin Zhong-qing replied anxiously. He wasn't doing this for power. He was just afraid that Ling Lan would be disappointed in him.
"Zhong-qing, I'm not worried about leaving the logistics department to you. However, you shouldn't be restricted by the logistics department." Ling Lan waved her hand and stopped Lin Zhong-qing from saying anything.
"Our future is not limited to 250 Ace Mecha Clan. We will climb higher and go further …" Ling Lan glanced at Lin Zhong-qing coldly. "However, how high we can climb and how far we can go depends on how strong we are."
Lin Zhong-qing's body trembled. He understood something.
