Your Abba: "Do you think you're still a toddler learning how to walk? Do you need someone to teach you everything?" There were some things that would only be effective if they had experienced it themselves and made up their minds to correct it. The Federation does indeed want to nurture you, but if you don't live up to expectations, it's not like they can't do without you. Besides, I've been retired for so many years, I don't want to get involved in the Federation's affairs anymore.
Jiang Pengji was speechless.
What he said made so much sense that she had nothing to say in response.
Your Abba: "This is indeed your chance, but you can't blame anyone if you can't take it."
The old chief was the same as before. Jiang Pengji sighed softly and looked at the starry sky without saying a word. She really needed to reflect.
Your Abba: It's not your fault.
After all, Jiang Pengji was the successor that she had chosen herself. The old chief was patient with her. She was also clear about Jiang Pengji's strengths and weaknesses.
It was not a problem for her to be the head of the army. Regardless of hardware or software, Jiang Pengji was considered top-notch. However, if she went one step further, her original advantage would become a disadvantage. If Jiang Pengji took the opportunity to reflect and correct herself, her future would be bright.
"What's not my fault?"
[Your Abba]: "There's a huge difference between the commander of a combat army and the marshal of the Federation. It's normal that you're not used to it."
Jiang Pengji scratched her head. She was suddenly curious.
"The old chief should be the most suitable candidate for the next marshal, right? Even if he retired, he would still be the most competitive with his experience. I heard you say that you had no choice but to retire because of your health, but the Federation's medical science is advanced. Are there any incurable diseases that they can't cure? "
Jiang Pengji was suddenly very curious. Why did her old boss give up on the possibility of further advancement?
Even if it was because of a terminal illness, where could the medical technology be more advanced than the Federation?
In addition, the old general had also mentioned the awakening. He had also revealed that the problem with her body was due to the so-called "awakening."
Perhaps, she would be able to find her own path from him.
Your Abba: You should really review the history of the Federation Army.
Jiang Pengji was ridiculed, but she listened attentively.
Your Abba: "Think about it. Among all the marshals in the Federation, other than a few at the beginning, which one of them came from a combat army?
Jiang Pengji was speechless.
The old general's words were double standards. He made it sound as if she wasn't from a combat division.
Your Abba: Do you think it's that easy to be a marshal? The difference between the two was even greater than the difference between a vassal and an emperor. The feudal vassals only needed to think about how to manage their own land, and it was fine for them to be willful once in a while. However, as an emperor, he had to consider all the people in the world. Every decision had to be carefully considered, because it could affect the fate of countless people. Similarly, the Combat Corps only needed to fight on the frontlines. It was a blade aimed at the enemy, but the Marshal was the leader who controlled the entire situation, from the frontlines to the rear, no matter how big or small. The requirements of the two were not on the same level. If the Army Commander's requirement was 80 points, the Marshal's requirement was 100 points.
Jiang Pengji was speechless. She thought the old chief was going to talk about some conspiracy theory.
"I'm even more depressed after hearing what the old chief said."
Your Abba: "What are you depressed about?
Jiang Pengji covered her face and said, "Does the Federation want to forcibly prop up a piece of mud with only 80 points of professional ability?"
[Your Abba]: "… If that's what you think, you're overreacting."
The old chief did not know what kind of person Jiang Pengji was when she first transmigrated, but from the looks of it, she had indeed matured a lot.
Any Army Commander in the Federation was an elite, one in a billion. For Jiang Pengji to be able to sit in this position and gain the unanimous approval of the other Army Commanders, it was not enough to just be good at fighting. Her other hardware and software had to be top-notch. Therefore, there was no doubt about her own excellence.
To put it bluntly, what Jiang Pengji lacked was not the ability, but the "mentality", "responsibility", and "attitude".
If these were complemented, and the Federation trained and polished her for a few years or more, she would basically be qualified to be a marshal.
For example, Jiang Pengji acted alone this time. Even though her original intention was to reduce the casualties of the guards, she put herself in danger … Even though the men of sacrifice could not harm her at all … No matter what, her actions brought worry and trouble to her subordinates.
They were sincerely assisting her, but she treated them with such a childish attitude. Sooner or later, something bad would happen.
Jiang Pengji liked to be "mischievous." An appropriate amount of "mischievous" would make people feel closer to her, but excessive "mischievous" would only make people feel disgusted.
If she could change for the better, curb her bad habits, and do things with more of a superior's demeanor, it would be considered a blessing in disguise.
After reflecting for a long time, the old chief heard Jiang Pengji say one sentence.
"Sigh, Zixiao must be annoyed. Can you teach me how to coax him?"
You Abba: "Get lost! Quickly get lost!
He doesn't learn from his mistakes and doesn't learn his lesson. The Federation will be doomed if we entrust him to this kind of person. "
Seeing the old chief fly off the handle, Jiang Pengji laughed heartily. It was as if the depression in her chest had disappeared without a trace.
She lay in the corridor outside the room and slept for the whole night. In the morning, she was woken up by the maid.
"Why did I fall asleep here?"
Jiang Pengji opened her eyes in a daze. The bullet screen in the streaming room woke her up instantly.
She forgot to turn off the streaming room last night. Five million salted fish just stared at her for the whole night. The bullet screen was full of all kinds of complaints.
What annoyed her the most was a particular bullet screen.
These salted fish watched her sleep to see if she would freeze to death … Where were the promised fans?
Each of them was more dedicated than the anti-fans.
Jiang Pengji looked at the bullet screen and had an idea. She rubbed her nose and sneezed. Her eyes quickly became misty.
"My head is a little dizzy. I feel like the world is spinning …"
She didn't like people guarding outside the bedroom door when she slept. Most of them were outside the courtyard. Therefore, no one realized that Jiang Pengji slept in the corridor the whole night. It was very normal for her to fall sick in such a cold weather. That's right. She planned to use the trick of injuring herself to gain sympathy!
Life was like a drama. It all depended on one's acting skills.
Jiang Pengji was as strong as an ox. She had never been sick since she was young, but it didn't mean that she couldn't pretend to be sick. During her years as a genetic warrior, disguise was a compulsory course to assist in some assassination missions. Relying on her exquisite disguise, even the doctor was fooled.
Wei Ci and the others rushed over the moment they heard the news.
Of course, Jiang Pengji wouldn't say that she slept outside in the middle of the night. She only said that she caught a cold when she woke up.
The first reaction of Wei Ci and the others was to question her. When they saw that she was so sick that her face was flushed and her eyes were bloodshot, their words were stuck in their throats.
The salted fishes were dumbfounded by what they saw.
Doesn't the streamer's conscience hurt to lie to the little angel?
It turned out that pretending to be sick and weak was very effective. Everyone had some opinions at first, but now they were worried about her.
