But for these people, seeing Xia Chujian jump from second lieutenant to colonel was as painful as killing them.
Because in the current Fifth Interstellar Fleet, the highest military rank is Captain Rong Shengwei, Lieutenant General.
The rest of them only had the rank of colonel at most, such as several executive deputy captains.
What made it even more unbearable for them was that Xia Chujian was not a genetically evolved person, she was just an ordinary person!
In the military system of the Beichen Empire, no ordinary person who is not a genetically evolved person has ever been awarded a colonel-level military rank!
In the past, the highest rank for ordinary people was second lieutenant.
Even lieutenants and captains are rarely obtained by ordinary people who are not genetically evolved.
As soon as the Empress Tan Tai Zijun opened her mouth, she proposed to award her the rank of colonel!
What a virtue! What a virtue!
At this moment, in the eyes of some senior military officers, Xia Chujian’s achievements were no longer considered achievements.
They have more complete video footage here.
After being processed by mechanical intelligence, they can see more clearly.
A lieutenant colonel in his forties said indignantly, "Look! What does this have to do with Xia Chujian?!"
"This is clearly an internal conflict among the Zerg!"
"They used their own air defense system to nearly wipe them out!"
"Xia Chujian is just lucky, he arrived just in time!"
"Otherwise, it wouldn't be that easy!"
"Kill a million enemies with zero casualties?!"
"Even when Coach Huo was here, he didn't dare to brag like that!"
Judging from the video, this is true.
At this time, no one had thought about how this "civil strife" among the Zerg came about...
Of course, no one had ever thought that it was Xia Chujian who implanted a virus into the Zerg's electromagnetic air defense system, creating the illusion of "civil strife" among the Zerg.
Because no one thought that Xia Chujian had the ability not only to penetrate into the core headquarters of the Zerg, but also to have the technical means to directly influence their electromagnetic air defense system.
Only a few people vaguely thought of controlling the opponent's electromagnetic air defense system.
But after thinking about it carefully, I felt that it was not feasible, so I gave up.
When the debate reached a fever pitch, Chen Rongnan, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, slowly said, "Everyone, listen to me."
"Colonel Xia reported this troop deployment to me in advance, and I gave him the go-ahead."
"And it's not just me. Colonel Lin from the Equipment Department also knows about this because she requested the deployment of a Falcon-class space cruiser."
After Chen Rongnan said this, the senior officers who had just criticized Xia Chujian for being "undisciplined" and "sending troops without authorization" were all silenced.
Indeed, as long as you tell Chen Rongnan, it means you are asking for instructions.
Only the Space Marines were dispatched, but they still had to ask for instructions from the executive deputy captain. In fact, the "amount of requests" had exceeded the standard.
Those people held it in for a long time before finally saying, "...Why didn't you say so earlier?!"
Chen Rongnan smiled and didn't respond.
He thought to himself, if he had said so earlier, wouldn't he have missed out on such a wonderful performance?!
Of course, he couldn't say it so bluntly, so he just changed the subject and said, "Your Majesty proposed to give Xia Chujian the rank of colonel."
"I guess the military will compromise, at least to a lieutenant colonel."
"So, get ready. Lieutenant Colonel is considered a senior officer in our Fifth Star Fleet."
"Should her position be changed as well?"
Xia Chujian's current military rank is second lieutenant, and his position is related to second lieutenant. He is the deputy captain of a column of the Star Marines.
After being promoted, even if you are a lieutenant colonel, it is impossible for you to lead only space marines.
Everyone looked at each other and said nothing.
Chen Rongnan said, "If everyone has no objection, I plan to promote her to the commander of the 4th Combat Corps of the 5th Interstellar Fleet."
"The Legion Commander has a column of space marines and 250,000 elite soldiers under his command."
A column of space marines consists of one million soldiers.
But these one million are just ordinary soldiers, not genetically evolved people.
Of the 250,000 elite soldiers, 99% are genetically evolved, and 0.1% are elites among ordinary people, generally elite pilots.
Because flying star fighters do not necessarily need to be genetically evolved.
The Star Fighter itself can switch between conventional mechas.
In addition, with the second-generation mechas in service, it doesn’t matter whether one is an elite pilot of the star fighter or not.
In this way, a quarter of the combat power of the entire Fifth Interstellar Fleet is in Xia Chujian's hands.
The commander of a combat corps is one of the most powerful positions in the five major interstellar fleets of the Beichen Empire.
Because she really has soldiers in her hands.
