Chapter 442 Reward
The telegram sent from Station 73 was quickly received by the operations room of the command center.
But after hearing the news, the staff in the operations room were a little stunned for a moment, and then became skeptical.
Although there is no need to forge such a thing and the authenticity can be determined by casual verification, the iron demon has indeed troubled them for a long time.
They had sent out strong teams to encircle and suppress the enemy before, but the enemy always managed to escape through the loopholes in the encirclement, wasting a lot of manpower and resources but still failing to achieve any results.
This time, the Iron Demon chose a perfect time, as the rear was empty. Otherwise, they would not have let the only team that had just entered the fusion area and had not yet fully adapted to it take the lead.
They didn't expect this team to be able to do anything. They just needed to keep an eye on the Iron Monster, keep a threat to it, and prevent it from destroying the rear with impunity.
But only a few days have passed, and they say that most of the iron monsters have been wiped out?
After discussing it, they decided not to report it immediately, but to send a telegram back in a serious tone, asking the other party to confirm the authenticity of the message.
Although Advisor Rao replied to the telegram quickly, they still did not report it. They waited until the evening. When Chen Chuan returned to the 73rd base with the spoils and the head of the Iron Demon and reported it in the name of the base, they really confirmed the matter and submitted the news.
A few minutes later, it was delivered to Qiao Weiting, the head of the command center, who first noticed that the team had only been there for less than seven days.
Normally, such teams should be performing adaptive tasks and would not be sent out at all.
He said to the adjutant beside him, "I remember this is the team that Commissioner Liang requested to be formed, right?"
The adjutant replied, "Yes, Governor, that's them."
“So it’s them.”
Qiao Weiting nodded. This was a team named by the higher-ups, and they had selected capable people to form it. He also roughly knew what this team was used for.
He said: "Executive Officer Chen is now a Level 1 Executive Officer, right?
"Yes."
Qiao Weiting clicked on the lower world certificate and looked at the resumes of Chen Chuan and the other two people, mainly looking at Chen Chuan's.
He said, "Well, judging from his file, he's accumulated quite a bit of merit, which qualifies him for a promotion to Level 1. According to the command's reward and punishment standards, he can be promoted to Executive Captain, and his two team members can be promoted to Level 2 Executive Officers in turn."
The adjutant reminded him, "Captain, this Executor Chen has already been promoted one level since joining the defense program, as per customary practice. It's only been a few days, and he's being promoted again... isn't that a bit too soon?"
Qiao Weiting said: "A contribution is a contribution, there is no such thing as early or late. If colleagues who have made such contributions are not promoted, no one will work hard in the future.
Also, a small team solved a long-standing problem at the garrison. Once the procedures are completed, I will issue a commendation in the name of the headquarters and have someone bring my pistol over. I hope they will continue to work hard."
"yes!"
On the other side, Chen Chuanxian stayed at the No. 73 base for one night, then said goodbye to Haicheng and others, and returned to the No. 4 base where he set out the earliest with the Iron Demon Head and the spoils.
Officials sent by the headquarters had been waiting here for a long time. They examined the heads and armor documents of Tie Yao and others. After confirming that it was Tie Yao himself, they completed the handover procedures. Finally, they shook hands with them, smiled and revealed some news about their upcoming promotions, and left.
Since they had only attended classes for two days before, some necessary things had not been explained clearly, so after returning here, they took a break and also made up for these courses.
Apart from what they had been told earlier, the rest was mainly some basic knowledge about the creatures in the Interfusion Land. In fact, this was the danger that the troops stationed in the Interfusion Land had to face on a daily basis.
The places where the troops are stationed now are all opened up from the territories of these creatures in the Fusion Land. Although thermal weapons can effectively deal with most organisms, the Fusion Land is a Fusion Land after all. Many organisms here have alienated organizations that are almost like fighters, which caused them great trouble when they were first developed.
The larger these creatures are, the more difficult it is to deal with them. We should try to avoid contact with them. In fact, we originally wanted them to eliminate some dangerous creatures to adapt, but now they have skipped this stage.
Five days later, Yuan Qiyuan was on the phone in a public telephone booth at the base. A female voice came from the phone: "Your captain is no ordinary person. You must follow him closely."
"I know."
"Hey, our little brother has become obedient now. It seems that sending you to the base was the right decision."
"Okay, sister, do you have anything else to say? If not, I'll hang up first. The captain and the team members are waiting for me."
"It's good to be united. When you're out there, the only people you can rely on are your teammates. You have to build good relationships."
"I understand."
After hanging up the phone, Yuan Qiyuan came out of the phone booth, put on his hat, and walked towards the restaurant. Along the way, the people in the base would stop to greet and salute him, and he would also respond in a very formal manner.
He was very happy. Although the official order had not come down yet, it had been confirmed that he would be promoted to a second-level executive. It had only been a few days. His sister's promotion was not as fast as his. If he continued like this and worked harder, it would not be difficult for him to surpass his sister. Wouldn't he be the one showing off at home in the future?
When he arrived at the restaurant, he saw Chen Chuan and Qin Qingque had already arrived. He hurried over, quickly ordered food, sat down, and took only two bites before asking, "Captain, when are we going on our next mission?"
Qin Qingque looked at him and said, "We have already advanced one level. It is impossible to advance again in the short term."
"Hey, I'm not thinking about getting promoted. I just want to go out on missions with the captain. It's so boring to be stuck here watching all that nonsense all day."
Chen Chuan said: "There will be missions, so you should be prepared first."
After hearing what he said, the two knew that he must have known some news. Yuan Qiyuan immediately felt relieved and started eating with big mouthfuls.
After lunch, Chen Chuan left the restaurant and walked into the hallway. An orderly saluted him and said, "Executive Chen, please come here."
Chen Chuan nodded and followed him to a reception room. Counselor Pei was already waiting for him. Upon seeing him enter, he sent the orderly out, smiled and extended his hand, saying, "The order has been issued. Someone will come today to officially announce you as the executive team leader. Captain Chen, congratulations."
Chen Chuan shook hands with him and said, "Thank you."
It is not easy to be promoted to the position of executive team leader. Generally, capable people have to be around 30 or 40 years old to reach this position, because this is a threshold.
In terms of identity, it can be regarded as a transformation from a simple combatant to a military officer, and he is qualified to attend military meetings here at the base.
In terms of rank, even if they are not here but transferred to work in the central city, they can still directly take up key positions in some violent organizations.
Although he felt good, at least his salary and benefits had increased, he knew that these were all brought about by force, so he knew that this was the fundamental thing, and without force there would be nothing.
Counselor Pei asked him to sit down and brought over a can of tea. He smiled and said, "Everything is kept simple here at the garrison. It's not easy to transport things up from the back. This tea is the old tea I brought with me when I came here before, and no one drinks it for me. Today, I'd like Captain Chen to taste it."
He personally poured tea for Chen Chuan. As the tea leaves floated in the cup, a fresh tea fragrance suddenly spread.
At this time, he said, "Captain Chen, you know, the Interfusion Land actually has many unique products that can bring us a lot of benefits. Many companies have set up factories and research institutes in the rear area."
Chen Chuan asked, "Are there any here at our base?"
Counselor Pei shook his head, sat down, and said, "Although we are considered the rear, it is only relative to the front half. In fact, it is also a battlefield. As you can see, it is not very safe here. Those research institutes are in safer places, and their defense level is much higher than ours."
At this moment, he reached out and took a box at his feet, placing it on the table. "Captain Chen, what you did this time has solved a problem for the higher-ups. This is the special medicine that the command center has distributed to your team. They've given you advance notice. You and your team will discuss the specific distribution."
Chen Chuan knew clearly that the so-called discussion actually meant that the captain would be the default allocation, and this was the captain's power.
Therefore, within the team, if a team member does not listen to the captain, he will often be deprived of medicine, or asked to perform dangerous tasks. In the end, he will either give in or find a way to transfer.
This is still good. Some people will deliberately find excuses to make things difficult for their teammates in order to get more medicine.
However, he would not use these against his teammates. Not to mention that he had the medicine provided by Fusion Boundary Company, even if he didn't have it, he would not take things that did not belong to him.
He said, "Thank you, Counselor Pei."
Counselor Pei smiled and then said, "This commendation for you should have been issued a long time ago, but some people insisted on using procedures as an excuse. They reviewed and checked it several times, and only released it to you at the last minute."
As he spoke, he gestured towards the box in front of him, "As for these medicines, if there's no approval from above, or if there's a stuck procedure, you might have to wait months to get them."
Although he did not mention any names, Chen Chuan knew when he was urged by certain people that day that there must be factions in the base.
Because he was brought in by Counselor Pei, he was naturally grouped together. Some people might be intentionally putting pressure on him and causing trouble for him. This has nothing to do with likes and dislikes, it's just a matter of standing on the same side.
This is inevitable.
However, he always believed in his own strength. As long as his strength reached a certain level, he could slowly break free from external constraints and shackles.
Counselor Pei said this and didn't mention it any further. He said, "Also..."
He glanced outside, then moved forward slightly on the sofa. He whispered, "Although that person has been cleared of suspicion, he's still been forced to take a leave of absence. He'll be passing by here in the next two days and may stay for a few days. Captain Chen, remember to keep an eye on him..."
