1236 Bad Premonition
"Oh, why do I have to be punished for five days?" Zilong asked angrily.
"Disrespecting the general, disrespecting the elders, and breaking the rules of the division. Five days is considered a light punishment," Ling Lan said calmly.
"Breaking the rules of the division? Boss? " Zilong remembered that he called Ling Lan 'Boss' in the beginning. However, he wasn't the only one who broke the rules. There were also … He glanced at Luo Chao and Han Xuya. The two of them noticed his gaze and instantly gave him a threatening look. If he dared to betray them, they would teach him a lesson.
Suddenly, he felt a chill seeping into his bones. Qi Long turned his head to look and saw his boss looking at him with a half-smile. That gaze was as cold as an icy blade, cutting into his flesh and blood.
Erm, how could he forget that Luo Chao and Han Xuya were Boss's fiancées? How could Boss bear to punish them? Zilong felt a little bitter. If he knew this would happen, he wouldn't have done it in the first place.
"Yes, I understand." Zilong didn't dare to betray Luo Chao and Han Xuya. He could only accept Ling Lan's punishment.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Ling Lan told them about her arrangements. Without her orders, they would stay at Base Feiyu for the rest of their lives. If something unexpected happened and they couldn't contact her in time, they would contact General Qi Yaoyang and listen to his orders. Other than the two of them, they wouldn't accept any orders from other departments. This included the three marshals and General Ling Xiao.
The moment he said this, everyone was stunned. The three marshals were the highest leaders in the military. Even the 23 official divisions would find it hard to disobey such orders, let alone them. Also, General Ling Xiao was Ling Lan's father. However, Ling Lan wanted them to ignore General Ling Xiao's orders. What happened? Why did things develop to a point they couldn't understand after being separated from their commander for only a few days?
"I know my father. He won't give you orders without my permission." Ling Lan saw the shock in everyone's eyes and explained, "The transfer order this time was very strange. It could be a plot against me and my father, so I had to be careful."
At this point, Ling Lan's eyes suddenly became incomparably sharp. "And you guys are my last resort. Nothing must happen to you guys. Only by protecting yourselves will you be able to turn the situation around at the crucial moment. "
Feeling the heavy responsibility on their shoulders, the expressions of Yang Mingzhi, Liu Furong, and the others suddenly changed. They realized that their initial guess might not have been enough. Their commander was obviously playing a very big game of chess, playing a fierce game with the other party. As for the seemingly useless chess pieces, the mission that they were tasked with wasn't just the rescue mission that they had seen. There were definitely other more important missions. It was just that their abilities were limited and they weren't able to deduce it.
"Remember my words. Your mission is to do your best to protect yourselves. No matter what happens, don't get yourself involved. Only by doing this will we have a chance and a future," Ling Lan reminded them seriously again.
Everyone agreed in unison. Only then did Ling Lan end the video call with satisfaction.
The entire command room was frozen. Liu Furong suddenly touched his face and asked Yang Mingzhi, "Old Yang, what do you think the commander meant by that?"
Yang Mingzhi, who was always good-tempered, couldn't hold back the anxiety in his heart. He said emotionally, "How would I know?"
"This arrangement gives me a bad premonition." Zilong scratched his head desperately. His intuition told him that the situation was very bad, but he didn't know how bad it was.
Han Jijun saw that everyone was panicking because of Ling Lan's arrangement, so he said, "Everyone, don't think too much. Boss likes to have a lot of backup plans, and these backup plans are usually not used."
"I hope so." Everyone couldn't think of a reason so they could only place their hopes on Ling Lan. However, everyone was still a little anxious.
At this moment, they finally understood how important Ling Lan was to them. As long as Ling Lan was by their side, even when they were on Planet Haijiao and Base 13, they didn't feel this way. It was because at that time, their commander, their boss, was with them. This gave them endless courage to face all kinds of difficulties.
"I really envy Luo Lang and Xie Yi. They should have stayed in the base and not come out." Zhao Jun sighed. If he knew this would happen, he would have hugged Boss's leg and cried and shouted that he didn't want to leave. Then, he wouldn't have to suffer all kinds of uneasiness.
"Yes, yes. It would have been better if Luo Lang and the others came out." Zilong also thought the same so he immediately agreed.
"Do you think that Boss will change his orders all the time?" Han Jijun's words pierced through Zhao Jun and Zilong's fantasies. "Boss chose the 10 of us after careful consideration."
After hearing this, everyone looked at Han Jijun and waited for Han Jijun's answer.
"With Zilong around, if anything happens to us, General Qi won't just stand by and watch." Seeing that Zilong wanted to refute him, Han Jijun sneered and said, "Are you trying to say that you and Uncle Qi are like fire and water? If that's the case, why would Uncle Qi be so close to General Ling Xiao? Isn't it because you're under Boss and Boss is Ling Xiao's son? How long are you going to keep lying to yourself? "
Ling Lan's orders also touched Han Jijun's heart. Han Jijun, who was originally polite and tolerant towards Zilong, couldn't help but explode.
"I didn't say anything," Zilong said helplessly. He couldn't refute Han Jijun's words. What Han Jijun said was the truth. The reason why he had the courage to argue with his father was because he knew that his father loved him the most. Qi Long looked like a simple and honest person, but he was actually very cunning on the inside. He knew what he should know. He was just a rash and straightforward person. He just wanted others to see him act like this.
"Vice Commander Yang, although you didn't say it clearly, everyone can guess your background. The reason why the general asked you to leave Base Nebula and come here to take charge of the situation is probably because he wants to borrow the First Marshal's influence. " Han Jijun knew that the situation was serious so he changed his gentle attitude and became aggressive.
Yang Mingzhi smiled bitterly when he heard this. "That's true. Thank you for your tolerance. I once told Vice Commander Liu that as long as the general doesn't betray the Federation, I will always be a member of Lingtian. I will never betray him. "
Everyone looked at Liu Furong. Liu Furong nodded with a serious expression, indicating that Yang Mingzhi was right.
Everyone's gaze softened. They had followed Ling Lan from a small battle team to an independent army. In their hearts, they only recognized Ling Lan as their leader. If anyone dared to betray their leader, even if Yang Mingzhi was their vice commander and one of the Seven Stars of the South, they wouldn't care about him.
