This rule stated that even if they voted now and a majority of the 200 members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff agreed, as long as one enemy officer objected, the vote would be invalid.
Therefore, only when the five chiefs of staff agree on an issue at the same time can this issue be passed.
At this time, compromise, negotiation, and mutual exchange of interests are needed to reach an agreement.
But the current situation is rather special, because Xia Chujian is not a member of any of these noble families.
Therefore, they have no way to compromise by exchanging family interests.
However, what makes most people even more angry is that now is a matter of life and death for all of humanity. Why should they sacrifice their own family interests to give to Rong Tuidi and others?!
Doesn't it mean that if we can defeat the enemy, we are no longer part of the human race?!
Because of the conflicts between the overall situation and personal interests, the military was unable to make a decision.
The meeting room was silent for a moment. Zhan Xixin compromised and said, "We can't just ignore it completely and not even respond to the Senate's inquiries."
Rong Tui Di nodded this time and said, "I have to reply."
"So, you can use the official account of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to respond to the Senate's inquiries and say, 'We are considering it.'"
"Although Lieutenant Colonel Xia has made outstanding military achievements, he can never surpass Marshal Huo back then."
"Let's all stay calm."
In a word, this corrupt official is planning to use the tactic of "dragging".
This "dragging" tactic is the most useful trick in officialdom, there is no second one.
Because it allows you to reasonably, legally and refrain from doing what you don't want to do without affecting various rules, regulations and systems.
And it will definitely not affect you.
From a moral, logical and legal perspective, once they use the tactic of "delay", they will be invincible.
As for whether it has an impact on others or on the overall situation, they don't care at all.
As soon as he said this, the other chiefs of staff looked at him in surprise.
Although they were also corrupt officials, they were not yet so serious as to allow the enemy to retreat.
They never expected that at this critical moment, there would still be people who would use the tactic of "dragging"!
Are you saying that all of humanity isn't dying fast enough?!
The time that the Fifth Interstellar Fleet fought so hard to stop the Zerg only bought these people a little time to "delay"?!
In an instant, even the people on Rong Tuidi's side felt an involuntary panic and sadness in their hearts.
In the face of a powerful enemy, human beings cannot unite and are still engaging in petty intrigues.
Does this world really need to be saved?
If Xia Chujian knew all this, she would definitely say, "I'm tired, exhausted, let it be destroyed..."
Xuan Fangwu thought to himself, his mouth twitching as he said, "The content of today's meeting is top secret."
"If anyone leaks it, it will be considered treason and the whole family will be shot!"
Rong Tui Di was stunned for a moment, then said slowly, "Chief of Staff Xuan, you're only in charge of logistics. You don't have any jurisdiction over this matter, right?"
Xuan Fangwei finally couldn't stand it anymore, slammed the table, stood up, pointed at Rong Tui Di's nose and cursed: "Rong Tui Di, if you want to die, just jump off the 100-story building of the military headquarters!"
"Don't drag us down with you!"
Rong Tui Di had never been scolded like this before. He was so angry that he was fuming. He shouted angrily: "Declare defense! Pay attention to your status!"
"You are also violating military law by treating me like this!"
Because of Xuan Fangwu's relationship with Huo Yushen and Su Buyan, he pays as much attention to Xia Chujian as he does to Rong Tui Di.
Therefore, he understood Xia Chujian's behavior very well, and even knew that Xia Chujian actually didn't care much about them, the senior military officials...
The reason she took on this task was simply because she didn't want to see so many ordinary people die.
I don't want my home to be attacked by the Zerg, that's all.
Unfortunately, they were blinded by their greed and took other people's concessions as weakness, and could not see this point at all.
Xuan Fangwu was about to continue speaking when someone else in the conference room stood up earlier than him and said to Rong Tuidi, "Chief of Staff Rong, what Chief of Staff Xuan said is correct."
"What you are doing now is pushing all of us to death!"
"We don't want to die. If you want to die, we don't mind sending you one floor!"
As he spoke, these high-ranking military officers actually gathered around him with unfriendly expressions.
This is a military remonstration...
Rong Tui Di was extremely anxious. He jumped up from his seat in excitement and shouted, "What are you going to do?!"
"Are you guys going to rebel just to see Xia Chu, a pariah?!"
In desperation, he even wanted to draw his gun!
But when he touched his waist, he remembered that no weapons were allowed in this meeting room.
Even second-generation mechas are not allowed to be brought in.
His face suddenly changed.
And those senior military officers have surrounded them one by one.
They had no weapons in their hands, but they were all tall and strong, and were all high-level genetic evolvers.
High-level genetic evolutionists don’t need any weapons to kill people.
At this moment, a rigid electronic synthesized voice suddenly came from the intercom in the conference room.
"Members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, His Majesty has awakened from his slumber and has ordered you to proceed to the Imperial Palace for an emergency meeting!"
Rong Tui Di heaved a sigh of relief, wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, and stammered, "Hurry... hurry to the palace!"
