250 Ace Mecha Clan should be the first mecha clan to leave the new planet. Of course, Ling Lan smuggled Little White into the new planet. According to the rules of the military, all the soldiers who participated in the land clearing mission were not allowed to bring any plants or animals from the new planet. Not even a grain of sand was allowed.
Ling Lan was able to successfully smuggle Little White into the new planet. Besides Little White's small size, Little Four was able to avoid all the detection devices of the Federation.
After 250 Ace Mecha Clan entered the Federation, Ling Xiao, who was always by Ling Lan's side, left quietly. Ling Lan knew that her father had to hurry back to the 23rd division. After being absent for three months, Chief of Staff He probably couldn't handle the pressure from all sides anymore.
As for 250 Ace Mecha Clan, they still needed to go to the Federation's military headquarters. This time, 250 Ace Mecha Clan's performance was considered outstanding. They managed to squeeze into the top 20 mecha clans with the best performance. They would go with the other mecha clans to receive the rewards from the military headquarters.
"I wonder who are the other mecha clans other than 250 Ace Mecha Clan going to the military headquarters?" Even though the mecha operators of 250 Ace Mecha Clan were all veterans, they had never received such an honor from the headquarters before. This made them extremely excited. Hence, they would talk about this during their daily conversations.
These veterans knew that they were able to rise from the ashes because of their regiment commander, Ling Lan. They were very grateful. However, the veterans weren't like the new recruits. They hid their gratitude in their hearts but their respect for Ling Lan was no less than the new recruits.
Major General Jiang Wei, the head of the security department of the Federation's military, was around 40 years old. He was one of the more famous young people in the Federation.
He casually took a document and flipped through it. It was the list of the top 10 mecha clans that performed the best during the land clearing mission. The first few mecha clans were the first, second, and third mecha clans.
Jiang Wei smiled in understanding. As expected, the ones who were able to receive awards were these powerful veteran mecha clans. When he flipped to the end, Jiang Wei's face showed a surprised expression. This was because he had never seen the name of the second mecha clan before.
This mecha clan was the 7th Division's Courage God Mecha Clan. It wasn't one of the strongest titled ace mecha clans in the 7th Division. Jiang Wei thought hard for a moment and suddenly remembered that he had reviewed the 7th Division's titled ace mecha clans a few years ago. The titled ace mecha clan that he applied for was called Courage God.
He didn't expect this mecha clan to grow to such an extent in just a few years. Jiang Wei smiled. The titled mecha clan that he approved performed so well. Didn't this prove that his decision was correct?
However, when Jiang Wei saw the last mecha clan, he was shocked. The 23rd division's 250 Ace Mecha Clan? Other people might not know what 250 Ace Mecha Clan was, but as one of the people behind the establishment of 250 Ace Mecha Clan, Jiang Wei knew what 250 Ace Mecha Clan was all about.
He couldn't help but rub his eyes. The number 250 was indeed correct.
'What is going on?' 'How did this useless mecha clan become one of the top ten mecha clans in this land clearing mission?' Jiang Wei went into deep thought. 'Did Ling Xiao do something to this mecha clan?'
Ling Xiao was from the same generation as Jiang Wei. Of course, he was also one of the pillars of the Federation's military. However, Ling Xiao's promotion was too fast. Although Jiang Wei's performance was outstanding and he was able to become a major general at such a young age, compared to Ling Xiao, he paled in comparison to Ling Xiao. Everyone in the same generation as him was focused on Ling Xiao. They completely forgot about his existence. This made him very jealous. When Jiang Wei suggested sending these useless mecha operators to the 23rd division, he wanted to make things difficult for Ling Xiao.
Jiang Wei couldn't help but sneer when he thought of the possible tricks in 250 Ace Mecha Clan. He wanted to see what Ling Xiao had done to 250 Ace Mecha Clan. If he found out that Ling Xiao had harmed those useless mecha operators, he wouldn't show any mercy.
Jiang Wei made a decision. He immediately contacted the commanding officer of one of the mecha clans in his faction and gave him some instructions.
The final destination of the ten mecha clans wasn't Planet General, the main planet of the Federation's military. Instead, it was a large satellite city of Planet General — Soldier City. The reason why they didn't let the ten mecha clans enter the main planet was to ensure the safety of the many high-ranking officers on the main planet. No one knew if there were spies or assassins in the ten mecha clans.
As the name suggested, the mecha clans stationed in Soldier City were all ace mecha clans that were responsible for protecting the main planet. Although they didn't appear in front of the public and only carried out their duties in silence, it was undeniable that the ace mecha masters in Soldier City were all very powerful. They were on par with the special forces of the various divisions.
These powerful ace mecha masters were nicknamed as the 'Bodyguards of Zhongnanhai' by the various divisions. After five years of guarding the main planet, they would be able to leave the headquarters and work in the various divisions. At that time, these ace mecha masters would be fought over by the various divisions. Every time, the various divisions would fight over these ace mecha masters until their faces turned red.
Other than these 'Bodyguards of Zhongnanhai', there were also mecha clans from the 23 divisions stationed in Soldier City. These mecha clans were also responsible for protecting the military headquarters. However, these mecha clans couldn't be compared to the 'Bodyguards of Zhongnanhai'. The mecha clans stationed in Soldier City would be changed every three years. This period of time was coincidentally the three year rotation period. The mecha operators in Soldier City came and went. It was very hectic. The chaotic scene also caused disputes to break out every day in Soldier City. The arena battles in Soldier City had never stopped.
In Soldier City, once there were conflicts between mecha clans, they were not allowed to settle it through private fights. If they wanted to settle it, they had to have an arena battle. They could choose to have an individual arena battle to fight one on one. They could also choose to have a group arena battle. Once a person or a team requested for an arena battle, the challenged party had no right to reject.
In order to prevent people from taking revenge, the challenged party could invite someone with similar capabilities to replace them or join them. In an arena battle, any kind of injury or death was reasonable and legal.
Almost every year, there would be soldiers who accidentally died in an arena battle. Even so, the arena battle was still very popular. This was because it was a place for soldiers to settle their personal grudges openly. No one could reject this point.
Although the mission of being stationed in the military seemed to be a waste of time and was also a little dangerous, this mission was still a golden one. Once the mecha operators completed the three year protection mission and returned to the division, they would be promoted. They would have the chance to become a high-ranking officer in a mecha clan. They might even become an independent commander.
With such a good promotion opportunity, how could the ambitious and capable mecha operators reject it? This made the mecha clans stationed in the military the most popular choice. It could be said that those who were able to enter the military in the end either had a strong background or were truly capable.
The higher-ups of the division also had to consider this. If there were conflicts and only mediocre people went to the arena battle, wouldn't they be looking for trouble? At the same time, it would also be a disgrace to the entire division. No high-ranking officer dared to do this. However, every time there was a rotation, they would stuff some people who had connections with them to get in through the back door.
The mecha clans stationed in the 9th division were undergoing the handover process. Among the new members, two familiar figures appeared.
"Thirteenth Young Master, congratulations." Ye Ling smiled faintly and congratulated the young man who had a cold aura. It was Ye Xu, the person who parted ways with Wu Jiong.
Ye Xu snorted coldly and didn't reply. In reality, he despised this kind of mission that was obviously done to give people who had connections a chance to get promoted. In the past, the results he obtained were all created by himself. Ye Xu couldn't help but think of the days when he grew up with Boss Lan. That was his happiest time. It wasn't like now where he had no power and had to do things he didn't like.
"The family head said that after this mission, thirteenth Young Master will be able to become the deputy regiment commander of an independent mecha clan. After one year, when you are familiar with the mecha clan, you will become the regiment commander of an independent mecha clan." Ye Ling told Ye Xu the family head's plan. He smiled and said, "I'm afraid that thirteenth Young Master will become the youngest regiment commander of all the divisions in the military."
Hearing this, Ye Xu's eyes flashed with a hint of confusion. His future was indeed beautiful but was this really what he wanted? He thought of Wu Jiong. The 15th Division was under the influence of the Wu family. Wu Jiong would probably be nurtured by the Wu family.
Ye Ling seemed to understand Ye Xu's thoughts. He smiled and said, "Although the Wu family has a certain amount of power in the 15th Division, they have a fatal weakness. That is, the power of the branch family is not weak either. The main family and the branch family are fighting for the control of the 15th Division. If Wu Jiong wants to stand out, he will definitely be suppressed by the branch family. He won't be like you, thirteenth Young Master, who has the support of the entire Ye family."
"Wu Jiong isn't someone who is willing to admit defeat. He will definitely find a chance to climb up," Ye Xu replied coldly. In the entire team, he was the one who understood Wu Jiong the most. When he worked with Wu Jiong and worked hard to grow up together, it was enough for him to understand Wu Jiong a lot.
"That depends on whether he has the chance." Ye Ling smiled faintly. He didn't think highly of Wu Jiong. Although he had some ability, he was too indecisive. People with this personality were destined to not go far.
Although Ye Ling was sent by the Ye family to assist Ye Xu, he was also monitoring Ye Xu at the same time. Ye Ling knew more than Ye Xu. He even knew that if Ye Xu had any intention of leaving the Ye family, the Ye family would mercilessly suppress and destroy him. There were too many disciples in the Ye Clan. Although Ye Xu was one of the most talented disciples in this generation, he wasn't the only one. If he didn't listen to the Ye Clan, they would just give him up. The Ye Clan wouldn't feel that it was a pity.
