Zhu Zhaofeng slammed a stack of papers on the table and said angrily, "He didn't graduate from a prestigious university, he doesn't have any record of defeating space pirates, and he's only been in the army for two or three years. How dare you become a fleet commander? Star Lord Xia, your nepotism is a bit excessive."
Chen An and Chu Xiao both walked over and found that Zhu Zhaofeng was checking the information of the army commander.
The information in his hand belonged to Xiao Zhen, the commander of the second fleet.
As for the content of the information, it was all forged by Fuyao, including birthplace, age, and other types of information.
However, the more falsified information is, the more likely loopholes will appear, so some content is deliberately ignored, such as graduation from a prestigious university.
Chen An replied, "The military values ability. Does it matter where you graduated from? I remember that Chu Yang, the commander of the Lieyang Legion, didn't graduate from a prestigious university, but that didn't stop him from achieving what he has today."
Zhu Zhaofeng said coldly, "How can you compare? General Chu went through untold hardships and participated in countless wars before becoming famous. And look at these people. They have no achievements and don't even have any experience as soldiers. How can they hold such high positions? Lord Xia Xing, I know you want to stabilize the army as soon as possible, but this approach is not in accordance with the rules. Why was He Shao able to embezzle military funds? It was because the army was full of his people. Let's learn from the past! Lord Chu, what do you think?"
Chu Xiao frowned and said, "It's indeed against the rules. Xia Zuo, do you have a more reasonable explanation?"
"I can only say that both Xiao Zhen and Chen Guoliang are already far more capable than fleet commanders. It's a waste of their talents now. As for seniority, they certainly don't have it, but that doesn't prevent them from contributing in their current positions."
Zhu Zhaofeng said, "You don't need to explain any further. This is typical nepotism. Now, immediately, all of these people will be removed from their posts and will be investigated and punished."
"That's inappropriate. You are the Chief of Military Affairs of Star Region Two and have no authority over the generals of Star Region Three. Furthermore, the Star Lord can directly appoint generals within their own system. Lord Zhu, it seems you have exceeded your authority."
Zhu Zhaofeng snorted coldly and retorted, "You can indeed appoint generals, but it must comply with the rules. Otherwise, it would be an abuse of power. As for whether it is exceeding your authority, you should ask your Chief of Military Affairs."
Chu Xiao said, "He is the leader of the investigation team and can indeed temporarily dismiss some people. But since we are talking about rules, Lord Zhu must also abide by the rules. The military commander system clearly states that star masters can recruit special talents and circumvent various restrictions. In other words, as long as Xia Zuo can prove that they are special talents, it is in accordance with the rules."
Zhu Zhaofeng picked up the information on the table and sneered: "All of them are special talents? Xia Zuo, do you think I'm a fool? Lord Chu, please tell him how to judge special talents."
Chu Xiao said, "First, a high level of enhancement, such as the third or fourth level of Star Crossing, can be promoted exceptionally. Second, strong command ability, able to easily defeat active commanders. Third, special experience, such as single-handedly destroying a pirate organization, or providing important intelligence to the Star Palace. Anyone who meets any of these requirements is considered a special talent."
Chen An already knew these rules, and he also knew how to break the impasse. After all, no one had better calculation ability than Fu Yao.
"They are all exceptional command talents. If you don't believe me, you can immediately assess them. The stricter the better."
Zhu Zhaofeng laughed angrily.
"It's always difficult to find a special talent for command in our Second Star District all year round, yet you have one, two, three... seven people here. Since you are so confident, prepare for the assessment immediately. Lord Chu, do you have any objections?"
Chu Xiao was a little hesitant.
In her opinion, Chen An might not have enough experience and had no idea what a special command talent was.
Not to mention the small Xuanji Star, even in the entire Star Region No. 3, it would be difficult to find a few people.
If there really were so many special talents, the Lieyang Legion would have been invincible long ago.
"Xia Zuo, are you sure? If you can't do it, you can temporarily dismiss them and make corrections later."
These problems are not big, and Chu Xiao can provide the safest way to deal with them.
But Chen An is confident in his own people.
Whether it is Xiao Zhen or Chen Guoliang, they usually command fleets, and a mere fleet is nothing.
"How to assess? I'll sign them up for them."
Later I learned that the assessment was conducted online.
The military has developed a professional commander assessment program that allows for full-scale simulation, with all elements perfectly aligned with reality.
The operations performed here are within 5% of the reality and are recognized by all parties.
"Isn't this just a virtual game? These are all my leftovers."
These simulations had already begun on the train, and the commander would go in for training every now and then. Xiao Zhen currently still holds the record for first place.
According to records, he commanded twenty fleets at the same time and carried out combat missions perfectly.
Half an hour later, the seven selected people arrived at the Star Lord's Mansion, where a simulator for entering the assessment project was ready on site.
They are Xiao Zhen, Chen Guoliang, Xia Feng, Liu Cheng, Ling Zheng, Qin Mingguang, and Zhou Wudao.
It’s not that Chen An didn’t let Sliven and others get off the train, but their looks were too unique and would be exposed at a glance, making it impossible to disguise them.
At this time, Xiao Zhen and others, who had learned the reason, looked at each other with relief on their faces.
"Boss, are you going to let us command a fleet in the game? Do you want to increase the difficulty?"
In reality, commanding a fleet is just a way to get by, but in the game, commanding a fleet in battle is really boring.
Chen An said with a dark face: "This is not a train, put away your arrogance. If anyone flips over, I will make him unable to leave the train for a hundred years."
The seven people immediately became serious and prepared for the test.
As Zhu Zhaofeng gave the order, they entered their respective simulators and began the assessment.
Chen An returned to the stands and sat next to Chu Xiao.
The assessment content was displayed on the seven screens in front, which were controlled throughout by Zhu Zhaofeng and supervised by Chu Xiao and others.
"All assessments are real-time battles. Your opponents are commanders from various galaxies. They will show no mercy."
Chu Xiao whispered to Chen An, "He's looking for his own people, so they'll definitely go all out. I just hope your people don't get wiped out, but at least one of them can survive. That way, there'll be plenty of room for maneuver."
Chen An asked, "Did he prepare a fleet commander?"
"What did you say?"
"No big deal, let's watch it together, it should be very exciting."
In the picture, Xiao Zhen and his team have entered the virtual fleet and gained full command.
They received the mission simultaneously and fought a decisive battle with the enemy fleet in the target galaxy.
This assessment does not test defense or various tactics, but only tests the commander's arrangements and response strategies when facing a decisive battle.
Because a direct fleet battle is the most difficult to conduct, and if you are not careful, the entire army may be wiped out.
As various orders were issued, both sides began to take action.
However, many people laughed at the beginning because Xiao Zhen did not make any changes to the fleet, but sailed at full speed and rushed towards the enemy.
"Zero for strategy, zero for deployment. This guy is going to die. No need to worry, he will definitely fail the assessment."
But Chen An knew that this was Xiao Zhen's style.
He was accustomed to pursuing speed in war.
