"Very powerful and influential? Is he as powerful as our regiment commander? " Li Yingjie had a look of disdain on his face. Although Li Yingjie didn't want to admit it, the truth was that Ling Lan was the most powerful young master in the Federation's military.
The most powerful here didn't just refer to the family background. In terms of family background, the other young master of their mecha clan, Zilong, wasn't too bad either. Plus, there were the descendants of the other generals and the three great marshals.
However, none of the descendants of these people were like Ling Lan, risking their lives on the battlefield, gaining merits, gaining power, and forming an independent army. Even if the higher-ups of the military wanted to deal with Ling Lan and the mecha clan that Ling Lan belonged to, they would have to wait for the military's approval. The military's committee members or the military court would have to pass a formal sentence before they could give the order.
This was the benefit of forming an independent army. They wouldn't be dealt with by the military. This was the goal of many powerful mecha clans.
Ling Lan was very lucky to be able to form an independent army so quickly. Under the competition of many factions, none of them wanted to let their opponents have Lingtian. In the end, they could only grit their teeth and let Lingtian become an independent army. No one would be able to get it. In the end, Ling Lan got the benefits that she deserved.
Not only that, but Ling Lan was also popular and loved by the citizens. Although no one knew his real name and appearance, Prince Ling's name had already spread far and wide. Plus, he wasn't the third or fourth generation of the military. He was the second generation's young master. In terms of status, he was much more powerful than the other princes. In this aspect, only Zilong could be compared to him.
With all these factors combined, Li Yingjie couldn't find anyone more powerful than Ling Lan. He couldn't understand why Gu Dongyang was so careful when following such a powerful boss.
Li Yingjie's words made Gu Dongyang smile bitterly. "Of course, our regiment commander is the most powerful. Actually, I'm not afraid of him. However, we just came here so we need to be more careful. If we really offend these people, although they can't do anything to us, they can still tamper with our rewards. I can't let my personal matters affect everyone's rights and interests. It's not worth it. "
Gu Dongyang's words made Li Yingjie speechless. Gu Dongyang's worries were not unfounded, but Li Yingjie was not convinced. He was used to being arrogant since he was young. Even though he had been defeated by Ling Lan a few times, he could not resist Ling Lan's magnanimity. As long as they did not provoke him, he would not torture them to death for no reason.
Later on, Li Yingjie followed Ling Lan into the military academies. Under the leadership of this omnipotent regiment commander, everything went smoothly for him. Not only did his arrogance not decrease, it actually increased quite a bit.
"I don't believe that they can really take away the reward that should belong to us." Li Yingjie was not convinced. At the very least, he believed that the Li family would not sit by and do nothing. This would affect his and his second elder brother's rights and interests. The two of them were the most likely to become the next head of the family.
There was also that Li Lanfeng who was highly valued by the Li family. Although he did not like him, his grandfather valued him a lot. His grandfather always reminded him to learn from him. Hmph, he did not want to learn from that cunning branch family member who only cared about benefits and did not see any true feelings. Many times, he had told his grandfather that Li Lanfeng was an ambitious person and was not someone who would stay put. Hence, he had to be on guard against him. Unfortunately, no one believed him.
Even his second cousin brother, Li Shiyu, didn't believe him. He would rather believe that branch family member who was from an unknown generation than him, his younger brother!
Thinking about this, Li Yingjie felt discouraged.
Damn it. What kind of charm did Li Lanfeng have to make so many people in the Li family believe in him? Li Yingjie was very depressed. However, he could not find anyone to talk to about his worries. After all, this was the Li family's business.
I won't lose! Li Yingjie's discouragement only lasted for a moment. In the next second, he was full of energy again. He clenched his fists and swore to himself that he would find evidence of Li Lanfeng's ambition. He would remove his mask and let everyone see his ugly face.
Gu Dongyang pretended that he did not hear Li Yingjie's words. This time, they came to the military headquarters with the regiment commander to report. However, everyone knew that they were going to the court. There was bound to be a battle of words during the meeting. No one knew what the final result would be.
Li Lanfeng, who was good at arguing, was the most suitable person to help Ling Lan. Unfortunately, Li Lanfeng's ability was needed to clear the spies in the base. Ling Lan wanted to take back the rewards that belonged to them. However, she needed a safe base camp.
Seeing that everyone was ignoring him, Li Yingjie was furious. He sat down heavily on the sofa in the living room and looked at Ling Lan who was standing by the window. She opened the curtains and looked at the scenery outside. She ignored them and shouted, "Boss Lan, do you also think that we have to endure whatever happens here?"
Ling Lan put down her hand and turned around. She said calmly, "Did you forget what I said when the name 'Lingtian' was confirmed?"
Li Yingjie's eyes lit up. He knew that this domineering Boss Lan would not do such a thing. This was also the reason why he was willing to follow Ling Lan. Following Ling Lan would not only make him feel better, but he would also be more arrogant than when he was on his own. This kind of domineering and unreasonable way of doing things was really to his liking.
Ling Lan's words shocked everyone present. They thought back to what their regiment commander had said.
"Lingtian Mecha Clan's Ten Principles: Don't cause trouble, don't run away, and kill everyone." Ling Lan's cold voice rang clearly in everyone's ears. "I hope that you all remember this."
"In this world, no one is able to break Lingtian's tendons and bones," Ling Lan said firmly.
She didn't need the people in her clan to compromise. Even if they had to compromise, it would be her, the regiment commander, not them. Just like her father Ling Xiao, no matter how difficult the situation was, he would protect her and allow her to spread her wings and soar freely. As a regiment commander, she also had to protect her subordinates just like her father protected her, allowing them to do what they wanted to do in a dignified manner.
"Yes, regiment commander!" Everyone couldn't hide the excitement in their hearts. They stood up and saluted.
This was their regiment commander — Ling Lan!
Gu Dongyang looked at his regiment commander Ling Lan with a complicated expression. After a while, he let out a sigh. The serious expression he had after entering Planet General slowly disappeared. A smile slowly appeared on his face. The gloominess that had been hidden in his heart for more than ten years disappeared just like that.
