Anyway, these people have no say in military merit, military rank and actual power positions of officers.

Only these high-ranking officials, the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the military, and His Majesty the Emperor can influence the appointment, dismissal and promotion of the military...

Xia Chujian knew that even if she killed the high-level Zerg leaders, she would get nothing as long as they did not approve!

What is this called?!

This is called power!

The silent joy in Qiu Shenju's heart was so overwhelming...

At this moment, the executive deputy captain Chen Rongnan, who was used to going against him, jumped out again!

This person's military rank and authority can, to a certain extent, represent the will of the top brass of the Fifth Interstellar Fleet.

Qiu Shenju frowned in dissatisfaction.

Chen Rongnan...has to be dealt with.

Just when he was thinking about how to communicate with the military higher-ups, he saw Xia Chujian throw out another chat screenshot.

It was exactly the same sentence he said jokingly in the group last time!

Qiu Shenju's face turned red and his neck became thick in an instant. He stared at the chat page on the virtual display screen, wishing he could have Xia Chujian dragged out and shot to death a hundred times!

What does this woman mean!

She's pressuring her superiors in the group to give her military merits, promotions, and rank. Does she really think the Fifth Interstellar Fleet is hers?!

Even the royal family wouldn't dare to act like this in front of him!

Qiu Shenju was so angry that his teeth were chattering.

But at this point, he couldn't help but speak...

Who told him to talk nonsense in a group of so many people last time!

If he still remained silent, his prestige as a captain would be completely lost...

Qiu Shenju took a deep breath, and when the group was about to get into an uproar, he still stepped forward to respond.

[Captain Qiu Shenju of the Fifth Interstellar Fleet]: Hahahaha! Squadron Xia's unexpected attack this time was truly impressive! However, we just received the news and are currently verifying it. Once the personnel who went to verify the five asteroids return, we'll hold a meeting to discuss the matter!

[Captain Qiu Shenju of the Fifth Interstellar Fleet]: Our Fifth Interstellar Fleet is a collective. Many things are not decided by me alone. Captain Xia, please be patient!

He said this softly enough...

He was a colonel and acting captain, yet he actually said "please" to Xia Chujian, a second lieutenant!

Anyone with a bit of common sense who can read people's expressions would not continue to be so aggressive at this moment.

This is what Qiu Shenju thought.

But Xia Chujian would not let him lead him by the nose.

In fact, she knew that Qiu Shenju would not give her a commendation or a promotion just because she sent a few messages in the group.

But if she didn't display it publicly, she was worried that her military achievements would be secretly discredited...

Even "replace" it!

Wouldn’t she be at a huge loss then?

So she chose to lay out the facts to the entire fleet first.

This way, even if someone is so bold and stupid as to want to take advantage of her military achievements, she has so many people to bear witness!

This is all first-hand evidence.

Xia Chujian was even recording continuously.

She waited until Qiu Shenju finished speaking before speaking again.

[144th Squadron Captain, Space Marine Xia Chujian]: Captain Qiu is truly a captain. That's a truly mature statement. But why send someone to verify the information about those five asteroids?

Qiu Shenju scoffed inwardly when he saw Xia Chujian's reply, thinking, "If I don't check, I'm going to give you a promotion right now, or what?" — Don't be so naive!

He also replied with a sneer.

[Captain Qiu Shenju of the Fifth Interstellar Fleet]: Captain Xia, we need concrete evidence to reward merit. You said you recaptured five asteroids, but you didn't bring them here, right? Hahahaha! So, we absolutely have to verify the evidence ourselves! Seeing is believing, isn't it?

[144th Squadron Captain, Space Marine Xia Chujian]: Huh? Is that so... But isn't the radar system on the Fifth Interstellar Fleet's space carriers limited to a range of one light-year?

[144th Squadron Captain, Space Marine Xia Chujian]: Those five asteroids are less than a light-year away... less than a fraction of a light-year. Why not use the quantum wave radar on the Space Mothership? Isn't that radar capable of covering a light-year range?

Qiu Shenju was so angry at Xia Chujian's words that he was fuming. He didn't care about the cause and effect for a moment and replied immediately.

[Fifth Interstellar Fleet Captain Qiu Shenju]: Captain Xia, this group is a public place. We must speak responsibly in it. How can you just open your mouth and say such nonsense?!
