Hundreds of light-years away.

In the office of the Chief of War.

The eldest grandson sat upright in his office chair, and in the three-dimensional projection opposite him, Jiang Cheng stood straight and saluted solemnly.

"How? When he first entered the Dark Star Domain, how did Tang Lang's kid go? Changsun Hong raised his hand and returned the military salute, and asked casually.

After a delay of several seconds, Jiang Cheng, who had put down his hand, had a somewhat strange expression on his face. "Chief, I found out that Tang Lang is a natural expert in robbing houses!"

"Oh? Tell me about it? Eldest Sun Hong's expression remained unchanged, as if he didn't care about the surprise of his henchmen.

"According to the information sent back from within the Independent Regiment, most of the goods we need for this trip have been satisfied." Jiang Cheng's eyes flashed with amazement. "But this is not the most surprising, the most surprising thing is that the independent regiment originally had the strength of 1,500 mechs after we transported another 1,000 mechas, but after conquering the Lexar space station, the strength has not decreased but increased, and now it has changed from 7 mecha battalions to 13 mecha battalions, which is close to the strength of two fully armored divisions."

"Huh? How did he do it? Hearing Jiang Cheng's report, the eldest grandson Honggu Jing Bubo's face was also slightly moved.

"First of all, he went deep into the 922 celestial body alone to gain the trust of the Hebrews, united with the Hebrews who were in trouble to send 500 mechas, and then used the Hebrews as an internal line to enter the Lexa space station, behead the Lexar space station boss Decepticon Joey, and captured the Lexa space station that was more powerful than himself with the battle damage of only 200 mechas, and with the deterrence of expelling some of the residents in the space station, nearly 800 mechas were absorbed into the independent regiment, no, more precisely, the Immortal Bird Legion." Jiang Cheng continued. "His series of alliances, co-optations, infiltration, beheadings, and onslaughts, including merciless expulsions, I can't believe that all of this was done by a young man who is no more than 26 years old."

Then, with a sigh on his face: "If I have to evaluate him, there can only be an ancient Chinese word to describe him: since ancient times, heroes have come out of youth!" ”

"Hehe, when did Colonel Jiang Cheng, who was in the prime of life, also lament that he was old?" After listening to the report of his subordinates and his praise for Tang Lang, Changsun Hong smiled faintly. Maybe it's because of the good mood, but it's extremely rare to make fun of Jiang Cheng.

"Before the chief executive, he didn't dare to say that he was old." Jiang Cheng's gaze was solemn. "It's just that some sigh that the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and if he does this after his job, maybe he is not so good. For example, he put himself in danger twice in a row, persuaded the Hebrews with his personal strength, and beheaded Joey, who had a high-level mecha master and a 9th-generation mecha, which he couldn't do. ”

"Colonel Jiang Cheng, your personal style is different, your command art is different, if you are the commander, maybe you don't need to be so cumbersome, you only need to ambush a few Decepticons' starships on their way to the 922 celestial body, you can deal a heavy blow to the strength of the Lexar space station, and then force the Hebrews to jointly send troops to Lexa with the power of victory. It won't take long for the Lexa space station, which has completely lost the strength of the space perimeter warfare, to collapse. Am I yes or no? Changsun Hong smiled and waved his hand. Although Tang Lang, this little guy, has a series of remarkable tactical arrangements, and it is a bit surprising to me to do this for the first time to command such a large-scale operation, but it is still very early to say that it is perfect, and you seniors in the military world still need to guide him. ”

"Yes! Total length! Jiang Cheng involuntarily straightened up.

In his heart, he was secretly shocked by the importance that the first person in the federal military attached to Tang Lang. What he just said was actually dissatisfied with Tang Lang, the supreme commander, who went into danger twice in a row. A commander who likes to take risks on his own is sure to love his men and win the hearts of his officers and soldiers, but it is an extremely sharp double-edged sword. If there is a slight mistake in the middle, not only Tang Lang will finish the calf, but the independent regiment's offensive plan will also be seriously disrupted. And he, the supreme commander of the Federation sitting in the rear, will also be implicated.

But I didn't expect that when he came to the eldest grandson, he used a sentence that his personal style was different and the command art was different, and his complaint was eliminated.

But to be honest, putting these aside, Jiang Cheng definitely admires Tang Lang, who is more than ten years younger than him, and he simply dazzles the various tactics of land warfare, especially special operations, which is dizzying. As the eldest grandson just said, according to his own tactics, he may be able to conquer the Lexa space station, and the loss may be smaller, but whether it is from the Hebrew side or the Lexa space station side, he will not have such a smooth cleaning up after the war, even if Tang Lang collects more than 1,300 mechas, including the Hebrews, don't even think about it.

In general, it is better to use Tang Lang's tactics to deal with it.

"Compared with the command fleet combat you are familiar with, Tang Lang is a good mecha division, so he is more inclined to solve battles on the ground, which is his shortcoming." Changsun Hong seemed to know the careful thinking of his subordinate, and smiled faintly. "So, then we can only give him less mechs and more starships."

"Tell Tang Lang for me, how much support the Federation will give him if he has the ability to expand the size of the independent regiment, but I don't want a rabble, but a strong army." Changsun Hong continued in Jiang Cheng's finally moved face. "There will be three frigates, two destroyers and a cruiser cruising in the border area, and when you arrive at the border, you will lead this fleet back to the Dark Star Field with your Li Signal as the flagship, and all the Federation Army symbols will be erased and organized into the Starship Detachment of the Southwest Independent Regiment, with you as the second commander of the Independent Regiment. Also, your rank of brigadier general is already waiting for you on the cruiser! ”

In the captain's room of the Li signal transport ship, the image of Changsun Hong gradually dissipated, but the aftermath of the order was still clearly transmitted to Colonel Jiang Cheng, no, more precisely, Jiang Cheng, who was about to be promoted to the rank of general.

The size of the Independent Regiment has been raised again, and not only does it already have two mecha divisions and ten assault ships, but now it has a small fleet of cruisers, frigates, destroyers, and large transport ships that can act as fire support ships as the tactical core. If you add the three destroyers that are about to be assembled in the dockyard, this is almost the strength of a detachment of the main fleet.

What surprised Jiang Cheng even more was that as a brigadier general, he was only the second commander, and the third commander was naturally Colonel Shen Chengfeng, so who would the first commander be? Although Changsun Hong did not say it explicitly, according to the regulations of the Ministry of Military Affairs, the temporary supreme commander of the current independent regiment, even if it is temporary, is the first commander.

In other words, only when Tang Lang leaves the Dark Star Domain, will the position of temporary supreme commander step down, and before Tang Lang returns to the Federation, he, the brigadier general, will also have to obey Tang Lang's orders, which are not yet clear in his military position.

Thinking back to the time when he took Tang Lang back to the capital of the Federation, Tang Lang was just a small soldier waiting to be awarded for meritorious service, but it took less than 3 months to become a commander who commanded tens of thousands of troops, in addition to the generals and colonels, the elite of the Federation, and the bandits who were recovered from all walks of life。。。。。。 Even if Jiang Chengli has gone through many storms, he can't help but have a feeling of vicissitudes at this time.

Really, it's a little too fantastical.

If it were an ordinary person, there might be a little dissatisfaction at this time. This is a normal psychology, if Tang Lang's military rank is above him, and the command is above him, then naturally there is nothing to say. But Tang Lang is currently just a military cadet, even if he has great merit, when he graduates, he will be a major at most, and it is somewhat difficult for Jiang Cheng to let a brigadier general and a colonel and lieutenant colonel in the fleet obey the orders of a fledgling youth.

But as Jiang Cheng, who once served as a staff officer of Changsun Hong's staff office, his doubts were far greater than his dissatisfaction, he knew too well that Admiral Changsun, who had always planned to move, would never do such a nonsensical thing, since he did so, he must have his considerations.

The capture of the Lexa space station and the seizure of various strategic materials needed by the Federation can be regarded as Tang Lang's first big test, and after passing the big test, it is the next round of assessment. And how to command the upcoming fleet, or let the proud soldiers of the Federation become his generals, perhaps, is his second assessment.

This may be the real reason why General Changsun Hong, although he clarified his status as the second commander, did not explicitly say it to the first commander, but only let Tang Lang temporarily become the first commander according to the regulations of the Ministry of Military Affairs.

There was a twinkle of anticipation in his eyes, and the fleet commander, who was about to wear the general, looked into the depths of the void.

Since the eldest grandson is so optimistic about you, then don't let me down!

Don't let the Federation down! This may be the brigadier general in his prime of life who has the greatest expectation for Tang Lang. As one of the witnesses of the Dark Night Project, he knew all too well the importance of the Dark Star Domain to the Federation.

Here, not only is there abundant strategic resources, but also an important defensive barrier on the border of the Federation, it is precisely because of the existence of this sinister star field, in countless battles with the Jiepeng people for thousands of years, Jiepeng has to choose to fight with the Federation from the heavily guarded Shaking Light Star Field.

If the Jeppon or the Great Eagle Empire had mastered the passage of fleets in the Dark Star Domain that day, then the Federation would have a lot less room for strategic maneuver, let alone the already small main fleet to focus on defense in this direction.

What is Tang Lang, who is looking forward to, who has passed the first big exam of Changsun Hong and is about to usher in the second assessment, what is he doing at this time?

The joy of the previous huge capture and the expansion of the strength of his command has been gone, and it has been replaced by the huge sequelae brought by the expansion of strength.

"Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes", "Dogs can't change and eat" and other ancestral sayings lingered in Tang Lang's heart like vines in the forest.

Looking at the one discipline violation after another on the desk in the office within a week, Tang Lang's eyes became more and more cold.
