Earth, Federal Presidential Palace.
A group of staff were once again called into the conference room, and also participating was the Commander-in-Chief of the Federal Fleet, Marshal Sanders.
When everyone entered the room, they found Lin Zhen sitting in the main seat with a dark face.
What's going on here? The president was so angry that his face turned black. What happened
The staff looked left and right, hoping to get answers from others, but unfortunately no one knew.
"Today, the front fleet has successfully captured Rao! Now the third phase of the operation has officially begun!"
Listening to the president's words, everyone became more suspicious.
Isn't this a good thing? Everything is going well ahead. There is only one last step left to complete the biggest initiative in human history!
But why is President Lin so unhappy
"Just an hour ago, the four fleet commanders held a combat meeting on the way. Admiral Liang Xingchen has sent the minutes of the meeting, allowing us to make a decision!"
These words confused everyone again.
But speaking of it, Lin Zhen was quite confused after receiving the message from Liang Xingchen.
Do you want us to decide on the battle plan? We are not military professionals? Isn’t this just messing around!
But when Lin Zhen finished reading the minutes of the meeting, his face turned dark immediately, and then there was such an impromptu meeting.
"I know what you are thinking? Do you think the frontline commander is messing around? I thought the same way before. You should read the meeting minutes sent by Liang Xingchen first!"
With that said, Ed beside him turned on the virtual projection that he had prepared.
In fact, the meeting records of this era are so-called virtual surveillance images. Everyone is watching the meeting of the four commanders as if they were watching a movie.
At first, everything was normal until Lin Fan started telling his tactics and answering Liang Xingchen's questions.
Everyone's expressions became strange. It was so shameless and despicable.
Then a burst of angry shouting suddenly resounded throughout the conference room.
"It's indeed a despicable tactic, but I like it! Good!"
This person was Marshal Sanders. At this moment, his face was flushed with excitement and he stood up.
If Lin Fan's tactics are followed, it is indeed shameless, but it can reduce the losses of the federal fleet to an outrageous level.
Moreover, when it comes to fighting, isn’t it about who is more shameless? Shamelessness is the highest praise for a famous general, okay
"What do you think of this tactic?"
At this time, Ed stopped and paused the playback of the virtual image, looked at the staff and asked.
"Let me say it first. This tactic may seem shameless, but it actually magnifies his strengths and minimizes his weaknesses. Lin Fan is a famous general!"
Sanders directly praised a famous general.
Others also nodded. Although the staff were not military experts, they still understood Lin Fan's intention from the meeting minutes just now.
Indeed, by following Lin Fan's tactics, it is absolutely possible to defeat the Oaks Empire's convoy fleet and render its 5,000 quasi-fourth-level battleships completely useless.
Soon, everyone spoke one by one, all affirming this tactic, but everyone was still wondering, what exactly made President Lin so angry
Of course, there are also several smart staff who have realized that all the answers should be in the video suspended by the vice president.
"Okay, let's continue watching!"
After seeing that everyone had spoken, Ed continued to play the minutes.
Three minutes later, when the meeting minutes were played, the conference room fell silent.
Everyone understood why President Lin looked angry.
"Snapped!"
"It's outrageous. It's really outrageous. Richard (Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Federal Fleet) actually pushed such a person to the position of commander of the Third Fleet. It's outrageous!"
Old Marshal Sanders was really angry. What the hell was this guy Quit saying? Let such a person command the fleet, sooner or later all the soldiers will be killed!
"As the old marshal said, it's really outrageous! In order to implement your own ideas, you don't take the lives of soldiers seriously?"
"Indeed, if Lieutenant General Quite's intention is to follow, wouldn't it mean that we should go back to the era of lining up to shoot people?"
"Nonsense, does he think that space war is a medieval knight duel?"
"I suggest you conduct a thorough investigation on how such a person became a lieutenant general. His thoughts are beyond my imagination!"
All the staff are also critics of you and me.
"Quiet!"
Looking at the somewhat chaotic conference room, Lin Zhen opened his mouth and stopped for a moment!
Everyone looked at Lin Zhen and immediately became quiet.
"The reason why Admiral Liang Xingchen interrupted the combat meeting and gave us the minutes of the meeting, do you understand what it means? He didn't want the fleet to have internal strife before the war started! Now let me ask you, this matter How should we deal with it?”
"President, I suggest that you issue an order immediately to remove Quat Klein from his position in the Third Fleet and let Liang Xingchen or Lin Fan take command on his behalf until a new commander is elected!"
Sanders immediately spoke out his thoughts, and he wanted to remove Quint Klein from his position!
"President, I agree with Marshal Sanders's opinion. Let Quint Klein participate in the final battle. One person will do bad things if he doesn't do it well. His ideological problems are too big!"
Ed also said, if you don't care, who knows what Quint will do in the final battle! If it really leads to an internal conflict in the fleet as Liang Xingchen fears, then the entire battle plan will be wasted, right
All the staff also spoke in agreement!
"Okay, Marshal Sanders, then make arrangements as soon as possible. The Federation Fleet Headquarters will issue an order to relieve Quat Klein of all his duties. As for whether Liang Xingchen or Lin Fan will take command for the time being, I have no objection. You can make your own arrangements. That’s it!”
"Yes, President!"
Sanders stood up, saluted, and ran out quickly. He had to go back to deal with this matter immediately and couldn't delay it!
After Sanders left, Lin Zhen looked at the staff again and continued to speak.
"I think the promotion system of the fleet needs to be significantly revised. First of all, starting from today, if anyone who has never been on the battlefield wants to be promoted to the rank of general, I will not sign. We must completely put an end to such people who talk on paper!"
"You know, in the past peaceful times, promotion based on seniority was impossible. After all, there would be no military merit without war. But what is our situation now? We are in the middle of an interstellar war!"
"Therefore, the federal fleet must be rectified. Military merit is the main way to be promoted. If you want to be promoted, go to the front line! Sitting in an office in the rear safety area, but being promoted faster than the frontline officers and soldiers, it will definitely not happen in the future. Allow it to happen again!"
A group of staff below looked at Lin Zhen and were shocked.
There's going to be a big earthquake now.
