After ED's voice dropped, there was some silence in the conference room.
It's not that Ed's proposal is too outrageous. If we really want to discuss military merit, only Liang Xingchen is better than Lin Fan in the whole Federation.
But the key is too young. It's just 20 years old, right?
Liang Xingchen was promoted fast enough. He became a lieutenant general at the age of 35.
For a moment, a group of staff did not dare to vote casually. They could not make up their minds if they looked at each other!
"It seems that everyone has concerns. If you have any concerns, let's talk about them together."
Ed looked around the staff and knew what they were thinking. It was just a matter of seniority.
"Vice President Eide, the key is that Lin fan is too young. He's only 20 years old, and he's still leading a fleet. Is it too fast?"
"Yes, Liang Xingchen, the youngest lieutenant general in the history of the Federation, was promoted at the age of 35!"
"Yes, young people should polish their mind for a few more years!"
A group of staff, you and I keep talking, in short, the problem is two words, age!
Is age a problem? If it is a peaceful era, it is indeed a problem, because there is no way for soldiers to obtain military merit in a peaceful era, and they can only rely on their qualifications.
But is it a time of peace? It's a time of war for the survival of the union. Well, what do you see in a time of war? It's about ability, it's about military industry, it's about age!
"Your concern is nothing more than age. I want to ask you a question. In the time of federal survival, do you want a 20-year-old commander who is capable of defeating the oaks Empire? Or a 50-year-old commander who can't beat the oaks Empire? "
"This..."
in the conference room, everyone was silent.
Yeah, what time is it? Is it time to talk about age and qualifications?
"And where do you think the artificial gravity system came from? Where does curvature engine technology come from? Where does energy shield technology come from? Where did nuclear fusion come from? "
"Lin fan is not only a war record, but also other contributions. Even to a general is not too much. Now you have to use his age as an excuse, and even a general is not willing to give it? Is it true that the warships of the oaks empire will stop in earth orbit before you know how sorry they are? "
Ed said with a grudge on his face, while Lin Zhen didn't say a word in the whole process. After all, he was his own son. It's not good for him to come out and say it. Now it's up to him, that's the best!
"Vice President ed, you're right. I agree to this proposal!"
"It's true that nothing is more important now than beating the oaks empire. As long as you can win, even if you give up a ten-year-old, I agree!"
"Me too!"
"Shua... Shua... Shua..."
soon, all the staff in the meeting room raised their right hands and passed by unanimous vote.
"Well, now that all the votes have been passed, Lin fan will be promoted to the rank of lieutenant general. At the same time, he will be appointed as the acting commander of the first fleet until he becomes a general and then becomes a regular officer."
Looking at all members have no objection, Lin Zhen stood up and announced.
As for why he is the acting commander, this is actually very simple. Within the federal system, the general is only the sub fleet commander of a fleet, and the fleet commander is the general.
Lin fan is a major general now, and he can't be promoted to general by leaps and bounds. In order to make Lin fan the commander of the first fleet with the rank of lieutenant general, there is only a compromise, that is, acting commander.
Three days later.
Lin Fan was informed by Jiang Hai to report to Liang Xingchen's office early in the morning!
"Dong... Dong... Dong..."
"come in!"
"Report to commander, Lin fan has been ordered to report here!"
"Well, you're here today to announce an order!"
Liang Xingchen stood up and said with a smile! And slowly came to Lin fan.
"The Federation of mankind, the fourth fleet, the 101st task force, commander, major general Lin fan. After taking over the 101 task force, he made many contributions and played a decisive role in the second asteroid war
Liang Xingchen read, picked up from the table will shoulder title, immediately for Lin Fan changed up.
"Congratulations
"Thank you, commander!"
"You're welcome. Here's another order. Lin fan will listen to it!"
"Yes, commander!"
"In view of lieutenant general Lin Fan's excellent command ability and great achievements, we hereby appoint Lin Fan as the acting commander of the first fleet of the Federation! I hope to make persistent efforts to recover the human mountains and rivers as soon as possible! "
This time, Lin Fan was a little shocked. In his expectation, he should have obtained the position of commander of a sub fleet, commanding 1000 warships.
What did Liang Xingchen say just now? He was appointed commander of the federal first fleet?Although it's an agent, it's also the commander of the first fleet. It's 20000 warships. OK!
Lin fan knows about the first fleet. In the past few years, after five years, the fourth fleet managed to recover to 20000 warships. After that, the newly built warships were prepared for the reorganization of the first fleet. Now there are 5000 warships.
And now, after the federal mass use of industrial robots, the production efficiency has increased many times, and tens of thousands of warships can be manufactured every year.
In other words, in addition to replenishing the losses of the fourth fleet this time, it only takes one and a half years to complete the establishment of the first fleet.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the task: General promoted to lieutenant general, awarded brain development pharmaceutical manufacturing technology."
"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the task: becoming the commander of a sub fleet, with a scale of more than 1000 vessels, and being awarded level 1-6 civilization explanation."
"Ding, because the host overfulfilled the task: gain hidden reward level 7 civilization explanation."
"Ding, the ultimate assessment task of novice period (phase 1) is released: drive the orcs Empire out of the solar system, and the mission time limit is three years! (there is no reward for this task. The host needs to complete all the three-stage novice final assessment to get the reward. The reward is to upgrade the system to the official version.)
There is a system sound coming from my ear. I have completed two more missions, and one of them has been over fulfilled. In addition, I have completed 3000 crash missions in 016 area of the asteroid belt, and all three missions issued by the system have been declared completed.
Just let Lin Fan some doubts is the system just issued the new task.
It's not that there's something wrong with the content of the new task, but that the system calls the ultimate assessment task of the novice period!
Is this system still a novice after ten years? And it's a beta? Do you want to complete all three phases before upgrading to the official version?
make complaints about Freya Lim's brain.
It took ten years to know that you were a fake!
