Zheng Xing is the Chief of Staff of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and is in charge of the General Operations Department. This time, he has indeed received full authorization from the Empress to preside over this battle, so all the pressure is on him.
Before he could find a way to keep his position, he was jointly dismissed by the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
The speed was even faster than the last time he drove Huo Yushen away.
Zheng Xing, the chief of staff of the General Operations Department, was born into a commoner family, but his wife was from a distant branch of the Rong family, so he actually had some connection with the aristocracy.
This is also one of the important reasons why he was able to defeat other officers of civilian origin and become one of the five top leaders of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
This relationship alone is not enough to gain Rong's full support and cultivation.
He was put here just to serve as a mascot, to appease those civilians who always feel that there is a ceiling in their career and they cannot be promoted.
Now that the time has come to take the blame, he naturally becomes the best scapegoat.
Therefore, in the entire incident, so far, apart from the officers and soldiers of the Purple Lord Interstellar Fleet who have been wiped out, Zheng Xing is the only one who has suffered harm and punishment.
As soon as Empress Tan Tai Zijun finished her live broadcast, the chief imperial physician announced that her condition had worsened and she was taken to the medical cabin.
It is said that he needs long-term recuperation and cannot even handle daily affairs.
However, before entering the medical cabin, Empress Tan Tai Zijun also issued an edict, announcing that military power would be entrusted to the military and the cabinet, and that the Senate would supervise it.
However, it was also clearly stated that if there were any major problems that could not be resolved, they still had to be reported to the Empress for the final decision.
This means he has become a hands-off boss.
With Zheng Xing gone, one of the five major leaders of the Joint Chiefs of Staff became vacant.
The entire aristocratic class, except for the four top nobles, began to compete for this seat.
This time, they didn't even pretend and went straight for the nobility, refusing to consider officers of commoner origin.
Even if they are relatives of the nobility, it is not allowed.
Their reason was that the only senior military officer of civilian origin had caused such a big mess, which clearly showed that civilians could not be trusted.
The nobles, and only the nobles, are of one mind with the royal family and truly share the same destiny with the country!
But what they didn't say was that the emperor who actually caused all this was a top aristocrat.
Even among ordinary people, not many people realize this.
Most of them are still at the level that the emperor is deceived and that it is the treacherous ministers who are ruining the country.
But the upper nobles all knew that this was the best opportunity to share power with the emperor.
The flashing swords and fighting from the upper echelons had no effect on Xia Chujian at all.
She has been very busy these days.
Because her quantum optical computer account is filled with information from almost all the people she has added as friends.
Chen Yanjun and other college classmates were so grateful that they burst into tears and almost knelt down to worship her as their savior.
Messages of gratitude came one after another, and I even recorded a video and sent it to her to express my gratitude.
Those people from the Fifth Interstellar Fleet who did not go because they did not believe in Zoren David and believed in Xia Chujian were also very grateful to her.
Because if it weren't for her, they would be the ones who would be reduced to ashes.
These people also include the Fourth Interstellar Fleet, especially the Fourth Interstellar Fleet's Commander-in-Chief Ye Chenfeng.
He was feeling uneasy at the time, and after gaining confidence from Xia Chujian, he decided to disobey orders and thus saved his fleet.
It was also him who first tagged Xia Chujian's account in the Starfleet group and sent a message.
[Fourth Starship·Ye Chenfeng]: I chose to trust you, and it was indeed right. If you hadn't stepped forward, more than half of the people here today wouldn't be here anymore. What can I do to be worthy of your tremendous contribution?
[Fifth Starship Captain Xia Chujian]: Commander Ye, you're too kind. Just say thank you. Smile.JPG.
As soon as she released this message, it immediately caused a wave of people "worshiping" Xia Chujian.
Messages began to flood the screen.
"Thank you, Lieutenant Colonel Xia."
"Thank you, Lieutenant Colonel Xia."
"Thank you, Lieutenant Colonel Xia."
…
After reading thousands or tens of thousands of messages, someone suddenly noticed that Xia Chujian's military rank had become company commander!
"Huh? Isn't Lieutenant Colonel Xia the corps commander? How did he become the company commander?"
"Oh right! Is that a typo?"
"...This is a system-set name. Everyone has real-name authentication."
"So the system changed Lieutenant Colonel Xia's rank to Company Commander? Does the system have such broad authority?"
"What are you thinking up there? The system doesn't have that much authority... The system only sets names based on facts."
"So the fact is, Lieutenant Colonel Xia was demoted from corps commander to company commander."
"Damn! Are these military personnel crazy? And that Majesty who keeps vomiting blood!"
"If you don't know how to fight, don't interfere! They won the battle, but instead of rewarding them, you just let them go!"
"To praise a traitor so highly, ultimately leads to the annihilation of the entire army!"
"Don't these people think that enough of our people have died?"
For a while, the group was really excited.
People no longer even hesitate to criticize the empress.
Since the empress herself has issued an edict of repentance, why can't she allow others to speak out?
Angry people even posted this news on Starnet.
#Traitors are promoted to higher positions, and true heroes are demoted to company commanders. Where is justice?! ”#
Under the topic, someone talked about the former corps commander Xia Chujian, who was demoted from corps commander to company commander after winning a battle with an unprecedented zero casualties.
