These mecha operators who had turned into ice men couldn't be allowed to return to Team 10 now. If not, the concept of survival of the fittest, which was carved into their minds, would be destroyed.
"Yes, regiment commander!" Luo Shaoyun and Yuan Youyun immediately followed Ling Lan's orders.
Soon, Lin Zhong-qing and Li Shiyu came back with their men. After removing Zilong and his team members, there were only nine people left in the Lingtian Battle Team, including Ling Lan. Ling Lan looked at the eight people who were busy dragging the unconscious mecha operators away. Even the weak Luo Chao dragged two mecha operators away. Ling Lan felt that the Lingtian Battle Team was still lacking in people.
'Maybe next time, I should take in a few good seedlings!' Ling Lan thought to herself.
The mecha operators who were taken away by their team leaders thought that they could slack off after they left their regiment commander's sight. However, reality proved that it was just wishful thinking.
Ling Lan went back and forth between the teams to supervise them. Whenever she saw a mecha operator slacking off or disobeying her orders, she would attack them without any warning. Then, she would order her mecha operators to drag them away. The mecha operators were frightened by this attitude. They didn't dare to deal with the situation anymore.
However, 250 Ace Mecha Clan was a place where the useless mecha operators gathered. These mecha operators were unable to complete the training mission set by Ling Lan. Other than the ten team leaders who didn't fall down, the other mecha operators were all exhausted.
However, they were too naive to think that they would be able to escape with just this. Since Ling Lan dared to set such a terrifying training mission, she was confident that these people would be able to complete it.
Very soon, Li Shiyu came over with his men. He injected these mecha operators with a type of agent that could help them recover their physical strength quickly. The effect of the agent was good, so the pain they felt was doubled. When almost 200 mecha operators cried out in pain, rolled on the ground, hit their heads and scratched the ground, begging for mercy, they felt as though they were in hell.
Unfortunately, their pleas didn't soften the heart of the commanding officer of 250 Ace Mecha Clan. Instead, it made Ling Lan's expression even colder.
"I have already asked someone to record this scene. It will be broadcasted on all the screens in the mecha clan's base 24 hours a day. I will let you see how ugly you are right now for one month." Ling Lan's cold voice sounded in all the mecha operators' ears.
The mecha operators who were enduring the excruciating pain instantly gave up on themselves after hearing Ling Lan's words. They were useless to begin with. Plus, everyone was the same. They would lose face together so it didn't matter anymore.
However, how could Ling Lan not know what these people were thinking? She continued, "If you still can't complete this training mission on your own after one month, this scene today and similar scenes in the next month will be broadcasted to the entire 23rd division. If you still can't complete it in three months, it will be broadcasted to the entire military of the Federation. All the soldiers will be able to admire your 'heroism'."
"Of course, I will do a better job in this video. I will explain in detail your past identities, the mecha clans you used to be in, the merits you received, and your pathetic and ugly behavior now. It should be very interesting."
Speaking up to this point, Ling Lan's lips couldn't help but curl up. "I wonder if your former teammates will feel ashamed when they see these videos?"
"No!" One of the mecha operators shouted in pain.
Although they left their original division, their original mecha clan, and their original battle team, they left with unparalleled merits. They left behind glory for their battle team. They knew very well that in that place, they were seniors who were revered by the juniors, heroes, and not cowards! If they knew that the people they wanted to learn from, the people they respected, were so useless, how big of a blow would it be to them?
This definitely couldn't happen! The mecha operators shouted angrily. Ling Lan's words forced out their shame, honor, and unyielding heart. Everyone had a reverse scale in their heart that couldn't be touched. Once it was touched, there would definitely be an intense reaction.
Thus, all the mecha operators got up from the ground. There was only one thought in their minds. They must continue to complete the mission. They definitely couldn't let this matter be broadcasted to the outside world. They definitely couldn't accept this humiliation.
Seeing the mecha operators' reactions, Ling Lan finally heaved a sigh of relief. Luckily, they still had something they wanted to protect. They still had a reverse scale that belonged to them. Then, the rest of the mission would be easy.
Ling Lan was afraid that these mecha operators were really rotten to the core. If they didn't care about anything, then no matter how good she was at training them, they would just be emotionless walking corpses. There would be no value in training them.
Of course, if these mecha operators were really hopeless, Ling Lan would definitely find an excuse to kick them out of her mecha clan. She needed to be responsible for her mecha clan. She definitely couldn't let these useless mecha operators drag her mecha clan down.
In the cafeteria of 250 Mecha Clan, all the mecha operators sat in front of the dining table. In front of them was a scrumptious lunch. It was definitely enough to satisfy the needs of the mecha operators after their morning training.
The cookery soldier, who was originally dragging his feet, quickly placed the lunch in front of the mecha operators. Ever since Regiment Commander Ling took over, the entire 250 Mecha Clan, from the mecha operators to the logisticians, changed. They became more efficient.
Of course, 250 Mecha Clan went from being the most comfortable mecha clan to being the most terrifying mecha clan. The logisticians who came in through the back door were complaining. Not only did they have to complete the logisticians' tasks, but they also had to go through the same training as the official mecha operators of an ace mecha clan. This was not a task that a logistician should complete. It wasn't that they didn't want to protest, but they didn't have the courage to do so after watching the videos before their meals.
For example, right now, after the mecha operators' lunch was placed on the table, the logisticians retreated to the side. Suddenly, there was a loud bang in the cafeteria. The big screens that were used for entertainment suddenly lit up. Then, screams and screams could be heard. The mecha operators were tortured in all sorts of ways. The logisticians who were watching at the side were terrified. They were scared out of their wits.
The mecha operators were already used to this scene. When they saw their own expressions on the screen, their facial muscles couldn't help but twitch. Some of their comrades had already gotten used to it. They gritted their teeth in hatred. They didn't hate their comrades. They hated themselves. They were all useless people. Why could they get rid of this ugliness while they couldn't?
These few days, they had enough of the gazes of the logisticians.
It turned out that they weren't the only ones who watched the videos. All the logisticians of 250 Mecha Clan also came to the cafeteria to watch the videos. This was an order from Ling Lan.
This order undoubtedly made all the mecha operators lose face. Their unbearable expressions were actually seen by these low-level logisticians.
It should be known that logisticians were supposed to serve mecha operators. They had a natural respect for mecha operators. However, now, the logisticians of 250 Mecha Clan no longer looked at them with respect. Instead, they looked at them with contempt and disdain. This made the mecha operators feel ashamed and resentful.
Of course, although the logisticians didn't care about the mecha operators, they still respected Ling Lan, who was in charge of 250 Mecha Clan. Within a short period of time, they wouldn't be able to forget how terrifying Ling Lan was.
Even these ace mecha masters couldn't escape from the hands of their demonic regiment commander. Logisticians like them who were inferior in terms of talent and didn't have much combat power. If they didn't listen to their regiment commander, it would be as easy as eating cabbage. Their regiment commander would eat them up easily.
Ling Lan originally made the video to make the mecha operators feel ashamed. However, surprisingly, the logisticians were very cooperative. This was a pleasant surprise for Ling Lan. This also meant that Ling Lan didn't need to spend more time on this.
However, the logisticians were so obedient because their training wasn't as scary as the mecha operators. Although their training was difficult and a little scary, it was just a little scary. It wasn't impossible. As long as they clenched their teeth and worked hard, they could still persevere.
As for the logisticians who used their connections to get into 250 Mecha Clan, of course, they couldn't accept this. They secretly tried to use their connections to transfer out of 250 Mecha Clan. Since they couldn't offend them, they could just hide from them.
Unfortunately, their wishful thinking was wrong. The supreme commander of the division, Ling Xiao, was always watching 250 Mecha Clan. At this time, who dared to move? Those who dared to move would be mercilessly removed from their positions. These logisticians had no backing so they could only listen obediently and train hard.
Behind their backs, these logisticians were crying. Damn it, who said that 250 Mecha Clan was the most relaxed and comfortable mecha clan? I'm definitely going to kill him.
Thus, 250 Mecha Clan became a terrifying place where it was easy to enter but difficult to leave. Because of this, along with the fact that the higher-ups controlled the situation well, Ling Lan's tyranny in 250 Mecha Clan didn't spread to the other mecha clans in the 23rd division. It should be known that with Ling Lan's methods, she was already qualified to be sent to the military court.
It had to be said that Ling Lan was able to enter the 23rd division so smoothly because of her father. As expected, regardless of the era, one's father was the most important factor.
He Xuyang, Tong Zhiying, and the others were in charge of monitoring 250 Ace Mecha Clan. They approved of Ling Lan's special method of using special methods. They had been observing them all this time. From the time the mecha operators were unable to be saved to the time when they slowly regained their strength, it proved that Ling Lan's tyrannical methods were very effective.
Tong Zhiying was even more excited. He wanted to create a file for 250 Mecha Clan and research the reasons why Ling Lan's methods were so successful. Unfortunately, after this proposal was given to General Ling Xiao, it was mercilessly rejected by him. He even ordered them not to keep any records of how Ling Lan controlled 250 Mecha Clan.
Tong Zhiying couldn't understand the general's order. Ling Lan's methods were very effective in saving those mecha operators. On the other hand, the Federation had many mecha operators that were abandoned due to various reasons every year. If these methods were spread out, these mecha operators would regain their glory and increase the strength of the Federation. Why didn't the general allow such a good thing to happen?
He Xuyang knew the reason why Ling Xiao did this. Ling Lan was General Ling Xiao's son. He had a high chance of succeeding General Ling Xiao's position. Thus, he couldn't have any black marks on his record. What Ling Lan did for 250 Mecha Clan was a great contribution to the nation but it was also a black mark. It would be detrimental to Young Master Lan's future.
Ling Xiao, who He Xuyang thought had a deeper meaning, was currently hiding in his office. He was looking at the file in his hand that contained the information about how Ling Lan controlled the mecha operators in 250 Mecha Clan. His face was filled with tears. The cute little princess in his dreams was getting further and further away from him.
No, his precious daughter was so obedient. How could he let the world misunderstand her? He must bury all the 'evidence'. Ling Xiao's eyes were filled with determination. He opened his optical supercomputer and used his authority as a general to delete all the information about how his daughter controlled the mecha operators in 250 Mecha Clan. He also ordered that no one below the rank of general was allowed to access any information about 250 Mecha Clan.
If he could, he really didn't want anyone to have the chance to access 250 Mecha Clan's information. Unfortunately, his authority wasn't high enough. Perhaps, being a general wasn't his final goal … Ling Xiao raised his head. His gaze was deep. A desire called ambition grew in the depths of his heart.
The military service that was held once a year officially started. The entire Federation was busy preparing for this huge event.
Planet Liaowang was actually not a very suitable planet for humans to live on. However, Planet Liaowang was rich in resources and needed a large amount of manpower to mine. Hence, the salary they offered was much higher than other third-level planets. This attracted many commoners to work on Planet Liaowang. They were prepared to work there for 20 to 30 years before returning to their third-level planets to live a comfortable life.
In order to allow humans to live on Planet Liaowang safely, the Federation government built two huge cities on Planet Liaowang. These cities could accommodate close to a hundred million people. Since most of the people who came to work would bring their children along, there was a Scout Academy and a higher level vocational academy. These academies allowed the students who couldn't get into the prestigious schools to learn some skills to support their families.
Chen Yang's family was a very normal family on Planet Liaowang. Chen Yang was a standard miner. His wife, Luo Min, was also a normal woman. She worked as an inventory clerk in a supermarket. She could only get the lowest salary. There were many couples like Chen Yang on Planet Liaowang. However, because of their eldest son, Chen Yang and his wife were different from the rest of the people on Planet Liaowang. Many families couldn't help but be jealous of them.
Chen Yang's eldest son was called Chen Yifan. Originally, they thought that he would live an ordinary life. However, from the moment he was born, he was extraordinary. His body's potential had reached S-rank. When this information was sent to the military, the military immediately sent people over. They hoped that they would be able to take full responsibility for Chen Yifan's education.
Chen Yang and Luo Min had been married for ten years and they finally had this precious son. Even though they knew that Chen Yifan would have a bright future if the military nurtured him, they still couldn't let him go. They named him Yifan because they didn't have any ambitions. They only wanted their family to be safe and sound. Hence, Chen Yifan stayed on Planet Lookout.
Although the military felt that it was a pity, they didn't force them. In the entire Federation, there were many children with S-rank potential like Chen Yifan. It didn't matter if he was born or not. However, in order to not waste Chen Yifan's potential, the military still guaranteed Chen Yifan's benefits. The S-rank genetic agents were all given to him.
Just like that, Chen Yifan slowly grew up. He also started to show the advantages of having S-rank potential. In the Scout Academy, regardless of whether it was physical skills or theory, he was always at the top. He had always been the pride of Chen Yang and his wife. They even thought that if they had let the military take care of their son, would their son be even stronger than he was now?
With this thought, they gave birth to another son, Chen Yi 'an, two years later. His potential was only C-rank. If they had known that they would have a second child so soon, they wouldn't have wasted their eldest son's talent.
When Chen Yifan turned 16, as expected, he entered the Third Men's Military Academy. Everyone was envious of him but no one knew the regret in Chen Yang and his wife's hearts.
Chen Yifan had already been in the military academy for six years. In these six years, Chen Yifan didn't go home even once. He would only video call his parents once a year. Although Chen Yang and his wife missed Chen Yifan, with Chen Yi 'an accompanying him, their days weren't that bad.
Chen Yi 'an's fate was completely different. If Chen Yifan was the pride of Chen Yang and his wife, then Chen Yi' an was their worry. Chen Yi 'an's potential wasn't high. This meant that he wouldn't be able to achieve anything in physical skills. Not only that, he wasn't smart either. After he finished the Scout Academy, he could only stay in the city's Mechanical Engineering College for three years. As he wasn't smart, he didn't get good grades in all his subjects. Chen Yang and his wife even thought that when they gave birth to Chen Yifan, they had taken away the best genes from them. That was why Chen Yi' an was so useless.
Unfortunately, no matter how useless Chen Yi 'an was, he was still their son. Chen Yi' an had reached the age requirement for military service this year. Chen Yang and his wife were worried and hesitant.
They hoped that Chen Yi 'an would pass the minimum requirement for military service. Once he joined the military, as long as he didn't go to the battlefield and retired alive, the country would arrange a stable job with good benefits. Then, Chen Yi' an would have a stable life. However, when they thought about the recent news, they were worried that their son would go to the battlefield. Thus, they hoped that he wouldn't pass the test and stay at home. It would be good for them to take care of him.
"Bam!" The door was slammed open. They saw their second son, Chen Yi 'an, smiling widely. His eyes were squinted. He didn't seem to be worried about military service at all.
Chen Yang scolded angrily, "Why didn't you open the door properly? If you continue to slam into the door, it will be broken."
Chen Yi 'an didn't care about Chen Yang's anger. He pulled the people behind him and shouted, "Dang dang dang, look who's back!"
When they saw a familiar figure beside Chen Yi 'an, Chen Yang and Luo Min rubbed their eyes. The next second, their eyes widened. They were in disbelief. "Is … Is it Yifan?"
Chen Yifan nodded calmly. "Yes, Dad, Mom, I'm back."
Chen Yang and his wife were overjoyed. They quickly pulled Chen Yifan into the house and sat down. After a while, they remembered. "Did you graduate from the military academy? Which division are you in now? " Compared to Chen Yi 'an, they were already prepared for Chen Yifan to enter the military. However, they believed in Chen Yifan's ability. They believed that he would be able to survive in the military.
Sometimes, outstanding children would be neglected by their parents. On the other hand, stupid children would make their parents worry about them. This was reflected in Chen Yifan and Chen Yi 'an.
Chen Yifan was silent for a while. Then, he replied, "I didn't apply for the military academy."
"Why?" Chen Yang exclaimed.
"It's boring." Chen Yifan replied impatiently. His six years in the military academy made him understand that the world of the military was not as simple as he thought it was. There were many people who schemed against each other and formed factions. If he wanted to stand out, he had to work with them. This was unacceptable to Chen Yifan.
"But that's your path to advancement. It's the shortcut for the Chen family to get rid of the commoners." Chen Yang shouted angrily. Why would his eldest son, whom he had high hopes for, so carelessly give up on the Stairway to Heaven? It should be known that it was something that everyone on Planet Wangwang wanted, but because they did not have the strength, they could only look at it and sigh.
Chen Yifan only responded to Chen Yang's anger with a cold face.
Although Chen Yi 'an wasn't very smart, he could tell that his elder brother and father were about to explode. He pulled Chen Yifan up from the Federation and shouted to Chen Yang, "Dad, I'll go to the armed forces department and ask if they have my name list."
Then, he pulled Chen Yifan and ran away. Chen Yang was furious. Luo Min wanted to speak up for her eldest son but she was scolded by Chen Yang. Chen Yifan was so lazy because Luo Min spoiled him too much.
Luo Min wasn't someone to be trifled with. She yelled at Chen Yang and Chen Yang had to calm down. Not only did they have to worry about their youngest son, they also had to worry about their eldest son.
Chen Yifan thought that Chen Yi 'an was looking for an excuse to pull him out. He didn't expect Chen Yi' an to really go to the armed forces department to ask. After he was told that he passed, Chen Yi 'an hugged Chen Yifan and jumped up happily.
"Don't go," Chen Yifan objected coldly.
"No, I want to go." Chen Yi 'an was famous for being stubborn.
"That's going to the battlefield. People will die," Chen Yifan said sternly.
"Since I'm going to join the military, I'm already prepared," Chen Yi 'an said firmly.
"Are you going to leave us behind?" Chen Yifan said angrily.
Chen Yi 'an looked at Chen Yifan in confusion. "Don't we have you? Since you didn't join the military, you can stay and take care of us. "
Chen Yifan was speechless. He didn't expect that his refusal to join the military would become a reason for Chen Yi 'an to join the military.
The two brothers parted on bad terms. The Chen family was at a low point. Their eldest son, who they had high hopes for, didn't want to join the military. On the other hand, their youngest son, who wasn't capable at all, wanted to join the military. Chen Yang and his wife felt that the world was turning upside down.
Under such circumstances, it was finally time to sign up for the military. Early in the morning, Chen Yi 'an packed his luggage and prepared to leave home. He didn't care if his family agreed or not. He was going to join the military.
When he opened the door, he saw his brother standing at the door. He leaned against the door frame and asked softly, "Do you have to go?"
"Yes, I have to follow General Ling Xiao's orders. I have to protect the country." Chen Yi 'an might be naive and not smart, but once he made a decision, he wouldn't change his mind easily.
Chen Yifan saw Chen Yi 'an's decisiveness. He turned and walked towards the door. When he realized that Chen Yi' an didn't follow him, he turned back and said, "Why aren't you following me?"
Chen Yi 'an scratched his head in confusion. "Brother, what do you mean?"
"What do I mean? I'm going to join the military with you. " Chen Yifan said angrily. If he let his stupid brother join the military alone, he would definitely be toyed with by the veterans. He had to take care of him.
"Ah!" Chen Yi 'an was stunned. Wasn't he going to join the military? Why did his brother have to go too? Chen Yi 'an didn't understand. He followed his brother and left the house in a daze.
After the two of them left, the door to Chen Yang and his wife's room was finally opened. Luo Min and Chen Yang appeared in front of them.
"Are you happy now? Both of my sons are going to join the military." Luo Min hit Chen Yang angrily. If Chen Yang was willing to talk nicely, her sons wouldn't have left without saying goodbye.
Chen Yang smiled bitterly. He hugged Luo Min and said, "Our sons have their own paths. We can't stop them. However, with Yifan taking care of him, I think Yi 'an will be fine." He had mixed feelings. If his two sons had the same dream, he wouldn't be so conflicted.
Just like that, the Chen brothers entered the military service system this year. In order to take care of his younger brother, Chen Yifan and Chen Yi 'an chose the lowest requirement logistician and the 23rd division.
However, the Chen brothers weren't sure if they would be able to go to the 23rd division. Although they wanted to join the 23rd division, they still needed to see if the number of volunteers in the 23rd division exceeded the number of recruits the 23rd division needed to recruit this year. If they exceeded the number of recruits, the mainframe would select them based on merit. This was something that a level 4 planet like Planet Lookout couldn't do.
The two of them waited for more than an hour before they received the information on their communicators. They also received the information on the starship they would be boarding.
Chen Yifan clasped his hands together and prayed. Then, he looked at the communicator on his wrist. When he saw the number 23, he jumped up excitedly.
"Brother, I can go to the 23rd division." Chen Yi 'an accepted General Ling Xiao's request and decided to join the military. Of course, he wanted to enter his idol, General Ling Xiao's 23rd division. He wanted to become a small soldier under him.
Chen Yifan smiled and replied, "Congratulations on getting what you wanted." Then, he walked to the right.
Chen Yi 'an was shocked. He quickly ran over and pulled Chen Yifan. "Brother, where are you going?"
Chen Yifan tapped Chen Yi 'an's forehead helplessly. "Starship."
"Starship? Why does it look so familiar?" Chen Yi 'an scratched his head in confusion.
"Didn't you read the information below? If you want to go to the 23rd division, you need to take a starship."
"Oh, right." Chen Yi 'an was enlightened. He suddenly opened his eyes wide and shouted, "Brother, how do you know that I need to take a starship?" Were all the people in the military academy so powerful that they could predict the future?
Chen Yifan couldn't help but sigh. If he didn't take care of his younger brother, he might not even be able to pass the recruit period. He raised his hand and waved his communicator. When he saw that his younger brother was still confused, he had no choice but to reveal the answer. "Because I'm going to the 23rd division too."
When Chen Yi 'an heard this, he was overjoyed. In his eyes, his brother Chen Yifan was an invincible expert. It was great that he could be with his brother. His nervousness disappeared completely.
Chen Yifan felt pressured when he saw his carefree younger brother happily entering the starship. Could he really take care of his younger brother for 10 years in the 23rd division?
The staff officer headquarters of the 23rd division.
He Xuyang was arranging the documents in his hands. He placed all the documents that needed the general's signature together.
Beep beep beep. The optical supercomputer on the table notified him that there was a call.
He Xuyang pressed the button and heard his assistant's voice. "Chief of staff, Regiment Commander Ling Xiao from 250 Ace Mecha Clan wants to see you."
He Xuyang's hand that was holding the document slipped. The document fell onto the table with a loud bang.
"Chief of staff? Are you okay? "The assistant asked worriedly.
He Xuyang forced himself to remain calm and replied, "I'm fine. Let Regiment Commander Ling in."
F * * k, why is this young master here again? He Xuyang had a bitter expression on his face. This young master was definitely up to no good.
He Xuyang remembered that ever since Young Master Lan took over 250 Ace Mecha Clan, he kept asking him for resources, weapons, and mechas. Even the logisticians' faces turned green when they saw him. These things had nothing to do with the General Staff Department. He had to use his connections to get these things done. He owed the head of the logisticians a lot of favors.
Thinking about this, He Xuyang felt resentful. Why didn't Young Master Lan look for the general? Looking for the general was the most effective way. He just needed to give an order and the logisticians wouldn't dare to delay it.
Actually, the reason why Ling Lan liked to look for him was simple. It was because it saved her energy.
If she looked for her father, Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao would always ask about the mecha clan. Ling Lan wasn't someone who liked to talk too much. He Xuyang, who knew her identity, wouldn't dare to ask too much. He would try his best to satisfy her requests. Of course, this was also because Ling Lan believed that her father would definitely agree to her request. She just needed He Xuyang to pass her a message.
Ling Lan walked in. He Xuyang sat on his seat and smiled. "Ling Lan, why are you here today?"
He knew that General Ling Xiao wanted to hide Young Master Lan so he wouldn't call him Young Master Ling Lan in the office. Who knew if someone would suddenly rush in. Although the possibility of that happening was low, He Xuyang still remembered to be careful.
"Chief of staff, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you again this time," Ling Lan said calmly. She seemed to be just here to greet He Xuyang and not to ask for help.
He Xuyang rubbed his face and said resolutely, "Tell me, what do you want this time?"
"Soldiers!" Ling Lan didn't hold back at all.
He Xuyang extended his right hand and pointed at Ling Lan with a trembling finger. He said agitatedly, "Shouldn't you be looking for your division commander or the commanding officer? If you feel that it's not enough, I can provide a more effective method. That is, you can directly look for the general. "Damn it, did he really think that he was Doraemon? Did he really think that he would be satisfied just by looking for him?
"Troublesome!" Ling Lan thought about it seriously and then replied.
He Xuyang was deeply affected. It wasn't because he was a good person and was charming enough for Young Master Lan to get close to him. It was because Young Master Lan used him too easily.
He must have owed Ling Xiao and Ling Lan too much in his previous life. That was why he had to work like a horse for them in this life to repay them.
Thinking about how irresponsible General Ling Xiao was and how he threw most of the work to him, He Xuyang instantly wanted to cry. Sob, both father and son were bad people!
"Don't say that you can't do it, Chief of Staff He!" Ling Lan placed her hands on He Xuyang's office table and looked down at him. An invisible pressure quietly appeared.
'As expected of Ling Xiao's son.' He Xuyang praised Ling Lan in his heart when he saw her overbearing aura. However, no matter how much He Xuyang admired Ling Lan, he didn't want to give in. He was General Ling Xiao's chief of staff. How could he be scared by a small regiment commander?
"Where's Ling Lan? Why don't you look for your direct superior, the commander of the Middle Second Division? This time, there are many soldiers assigned to the Middle Second Division." He Xuyang shrugged. "I'm just a chief of staff. It's not up to me to decide the allocation of soldiers."
"Master, he's lying!" Little Blossom clenched his fists in protest. He couldn't download the information into his database silently like Little Four unless he chose to devour it, but Little Blossom didn't have the ability to do that. However, Ling Lan repeatedly warned Floret not to devour the data in the optical supercomputer of the 23rd division. Floret could only look at it enviously.
Although Floret couldn't download the data and show it to Ling Lan, it didn't mean that he didn't know anything about it. Thus, He Xuyang's words were immediately exposed by Floret. Just now, he saw many documents on the optical supercomputer of the staff officer department. How could it have nothing to do with the staff officer department?
It was just that Floret couldn't remember the details of the documents. As expected, if he didn't devour the data, he wouldn't be able to remember it. Floret thought gloomily.
Actually, even without Floret's reminder, Ling Lan knew that He Xuyang was lying. If there was a department in the division that was related to all the other departments, it would be the staff officer department. Although the main task of the staff officer department was to come up with battle plans, this task would only be activated when the division entered a war. Normally, the staff officer department would be the center of the entire division's operations. It was the department that the general of the division needed to make arrangements for all the divisions.
Ling Lan wasn't surprised by He Xuyang's rejection. Every time she looked for him, he would do this. She just calmly patted the stack of documents beside He Xuyang and said calmly, "Chief of staff He, do you want me to help you find the documents here so that you can remember?"
Although Ling Lan didn't know if the stack of documents had anything to do with the allocation of soldiers, she didn't care. If she could scare He Xuyang, she would win. If she couldn't, she would think of another way to solve the problem.
It had to be said that Ling Lan was very lucky. The stack of documents really did have something to do with the allocation of soldiers. He Xuyang looked at the confident Ling Lan and felt very gloomy. He really suspected that there was a traitor among his assistants who leaked the contents of the documents to Ling Lan.
Of course, He Xuyang was just imagining things. He knew that it was impossible. To be able to enter the staff officer department and become his assistant, no matter if it was in terms of ideology, morals, or professional ethics, they were all tested. They definitely wouldn't leak the information to anyone.
He Xuyang could only admit defeat. He asked unhappily, "How many people do you need?!"
Ling Lan raised one hand. He Xuyang heaved a sigh of relief. Luckily, he didn't ask for too much. "Fifty people. No problem." For this kind of small matter, he just needed to ask his subordinates to enter the request into the mainframe. He didn't need to communicate with the other departments and didn't need to report it to General Ling Xiao.
He Xuyang still didn't want General Ling Xiao to know that he was secretly working for Young Master Lan. General Ling Xiao was an impartial person. He probably didn't want to see his son using his connections.
He Xuyang was actually thinking too much. Ling Xiao would definitely not object to him helping Ling Lan. If it wasn't for the fact that he didn't want to help Ling Lan too obviously, Ling Xiao would really want to give her everything that Ling Lan needed.
He Xuyang was undoubtedly thinking very well. Unfortunately, Ling Lan wasn't so easy to get rid of. She shook her head firmly, indicating that this number was wrong.
He Xuyang's expression changed. "Don't tell me that you want 500 people."
Ling Lan put down her hand and replied calmly, "Thank you for your concern."
He Xuyang almost vomited blood. "You really want 500 people? That's impossible. "Which mecha clan would accept so many people at once? Unless it was a battle casualty, it was already considered a lot to have 50 additional players.
Ling Lan wasn't in a hurry. She said calmly, "A mecha clan has around 4000 to 5000 people and 1500 mecha operators. However, we only have 250 mecha operators. Including the logisticians, we only have 350 people in our mecha clan. It's not even enough to form a battalion. Chief of Staff He, don't you think that the division owes us too much?"
He Xuyang was speechless. He stuttered, "There are some special circumstances in 250 Ace Mecha Clan. That's why there are so few people."
"I'm not asking for much. 500 people. 100 ace operators and 400 outstanding logisticians." Ling Lan told him her request.
"100 ace operators? Impossible. Do you think that ace operators are like cabbages that can be found in the fields? " He Xuyang shook his head. Asking for 500 people was already an exaggeration. Asking for 100 ace operators? Did they think that the 23rd division belonged to them?
Erm, the general of the 23rd division was Ling Lan's father. Looking at it from another perspective, it was true. He Xuyang was speechless.
Ling Lan frowned. She thought for a moment and said again, "50 ace operators and 450 logisticians. That's it."
He Xuyang shook his head furiously. Ace operators represented the ultimate strength of the division. If they wanted to recruit an ace operator, they would need to go through three checks and four tests. 50? Even if they killed him, they wouldn't have the right to do so. If they directly asked General Ling Xiao, they might not be able to do it in a short period of time.
Ling Lan glanced at him coldly. She said calmly, "Let's not waste time. Just tell me what you can do."
He Xuyang was afraid that Ling Lan would ask for more so he quickly said, "We can't give you any ace operators. We can only give you 50 advanced mecha operators. We can only give you 200 new logisticians."
