Besides, the previous events were related to the Fifth Interstellar Fleet anyway, so she could ask Huo Yushen directly.
She is not afraid that these people will fool her.
Xia Chujian stood up and said bluntly, "Let's adjourn the meeting."
Those people stood up together, saluted her at attention, and watched her leave the meeting room with a guard.
After she left, the five captains left the conference room on the fourth floor one after another.
Their interest in this captain has only just begun to grow, and they all want to find out what makes her so special.
…
Xia Chujian understood the entire situation on the interstellar cruiser and sat back in his captain's room.
She first sent a message to Huo Yushen, asking about the surviving Space Marines from the battle that year.
Xia Chujian: Huo Shuai, what's going on with those 500 Space Marines? Are they all transferred from the Fifth Interstellar Fleet?
Huo Yushen responded to her promptly.
[Fok Yushen]: Yes, they are. What's wrong? Are they refusing to obey the rules?
[Xia Chujian]: ...Of course not, so they really are not counted in the casualty rate?
[Huo Yushen]: According to the regulations of the Imperial Military, yes, they are not included in the combat loss rate.
[Xia Chujian]: Rage.JPG. How could this be?! They're human too! They're our soldiers too!
[Huo Yushen]: They were soldiers, but their deaths were not counted in the casualty rate. Don’t you think that’s wrong?
Xia Chujian: Of course not! Oh, then their military pay, various supplies and equipment, and pensions, no one embezzled them, right?
Huo Yushen looked at this reply and felt very sorry for Xia Chujian, but he didn't think she was obsessed with money as before.
Huo Yushen: Not really, they're just not counted towards the commander's performance evaluation, specifically their combat loss rate. All other supplies are treated like regular troops.
[Xia Chujian]: That's good, but not good enough! If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely ask the Imperial Military to change this absurd rule!
[Fok Yushen]: Okay, I support you.
Xia Chujian couldn't believe her eyes when she saw Huo Yushen's reply.
She thought she was seeing things and even wiped the virtual display with her hand.
No, you read that right.
Huo Yushen, who had always disliked her, and Inspector Huo, who was arrogant and speechless, actually said they "supported" her...
Xia Chu was delighted and replied immediately.
[Xia Chujian]: Huo Shuai has good vision! If Huo Shuai can't change the rules, I will change them!
This reply, directed at one's top boss, is actually a bit arrogant and impolite.
She should have just thought about it in her mind, but she had the audacity to say it out loud.
Huo Yushen was so angry at her that he laughed.
Huo Yushen: I'll wait and see. Second Lieutenant Xia will definitely surpass me.
Xia Chujian had never received such a level of praise from Huo Yushen before, and after being excited, she calmed down.
I always feel like something is wrong.
It's not intentional irony, is it?
[Xia Chujian]: ... Coach Huo, please don't use metaphors, allusions, irony and other rhetorical devices when speaking, as they will cause unnecessary misunderstandings.
Xia Chujian: I'm just an ordinary person. My genes can't evolve. I was born into a poor family and couldn't even afford low-grade nutrient solution. Now I have elderly parents, young children, and two dogs to support. The burden is heavy...
[Xia Chujian]: I was just confused and boasted...
Huo Yushen sneered, but he was quite flexible.
Huo Yushen: ...No, Second Lieutenant Xia, you're not bragging. Believe in yourself, you can do it.
Xia Chujian's mouth twitched, and she pouted at Huo Yushen's reply.
It turned out that he was fooling her.
When she saw Xia Chujian, she was just an ignorant girl. How could he make her so excited that she would risk her life for him just by a few words?
You assigned her the task without even discussing the price?
She wouldn't fall for it.
Xia Chujian took back her words without any idol baggage.
Xia Chujian: Huo Shuai, I was just joking, don't take it seriously. I have great respect for you. Now, let's get back to those Space Marines. I'm going to get back to work now. Please don't disturb me from now on.
Huo Yushen: "..."
It's like seeing someone crossing a river and then destroying the bridge.
Huo Yushen tapped his fingers on the desk and finally replied to her with a word.
[Huo Yushen]: Even if those 500 Space Marines are disheartened, they will never stab you in the back, don't worry.
Xia Chujian was relieved.
This is all she wants.
Did she think that she was leading everyone to rescue people, not to fight a war?
As long as you don't hold her back, everything will be fine.
After finishing the call with Huo Yushen and resolving the internal issues, she had to think carefully about how to launch the search and rescue operation.
Xia Chujian sat behind his desk, pulled out three large virtual display screens, and connected to the mechanical intelligence of the Star Cruiser.
"Please show the location of the missing fighter's last distress signal."
After Xia Chujian finished speaking, the mechanical intelligence of the Falcon D1 displayed the previously summarized information on the virtual display screen.
Of course, this information came from the Kanli Star Flight Base.
When the trainees' fighter planes enter the asteroid belt, if they want to exit, they will press a green button on the fighter plane.
The fighter plane will then send out a signal containing the coordinates of its location, waiting for the base's interstellar airship to come and pick it up.
This has been done without issue before.
But this time something went wrong.
Not only did the students' star fighters disappear, but even the ten interstellar airships that entered the asteroid belt to pick up the fighters disappeared without a trace.
Xia Chujian gave instructions to the cruiser's mechanical intelligence. Not long after, a simulated image of the asteroid belt appeared on the virtual display screen in front of her.
Then, more than a hundred small red dots appeared on the simulated star map one after another.
Then, the mechanical intelligence of the Star Cruiser prompted that this was the last place where the students' fighter planes appeared forty-eight hours ago.
