When the first vehicles of the rumbling chariot convoy came to a heavy stop in the courtyard of the General Command, everyone looked at the convoy curiously.
"Father...Father?"
Huzi jumped out of the car smartly, only to see a figure with eyes full of disbelief and tears streaming down his face.
"Hu'er... you're not dead? Is the young master really not dead?"
Old housekeeper Gu murmured, and he suddenly hugged Hu Zi and began to cry deeply.
Huzi's eyes glowed red, and he hugged his father deeply.
"Yes, father, I'm sorry for making you worry. I'm not dead, and neither is the young master."
he cried softly.
…
"Is His Highness Ning really alive?"
A staff officer in the crowd said in a low voice.
"It's very likely... We are not dreaming, this is real, it is real!"
A young staff officer beside him jumped up excitedly.
"Then, the young master was the one that got on the bird just now?"
Housekeeper Gu, who was hugging Huzi and crying, also raised his head and asked nervously while wiping his tears.
"Yes, Brother Ning has led the Demon General Group to provide early support."
Hu Zi kept wiping his tears and nodded.
…
"Then where did you go? Where did you go? Why are you back now?"
Old housekeeper Gu asked repeatedly.
"This...it's a long story, but it goes like this..."
Huzi's face suddenly showed a trace of embarrassment.
"I'll introduce. I'll introduce."
The mistress who was riding with Huzi quickly got out and said happily.
The storyteller, the mistress, was talking slobberingly, and Huzi couldn't help but add, and the two of them started to talk about the matter gradually.
…
"Oh my god! The divine escape battle in the far north! This is enough to be included in the textbooks of the Imperial School!"
A staff officer exclaimed in a low voice.
"What is that? Miracle Night at Hongye Ridge, this is truly a miracle! Compared with it, you can even throw away the Imperial School textbooks! Junior Brother, you won't make it up to deceive us? But those genius tactics are also
It can't be made up...God. I really admire your Chief of Staff Lin, is she a god?"
The other staff officer had a confused look on his face.
…
"The space passage...it turns out that there really is a space passage...His Royal Highness Ning can actually..."
"The Dingbei formation is still there, and they are now poking the barbarians in the far north sea!"
"The blood elves... are so amazing. Let me tell you, that phoenix named Ao is too mythical!"
"Holy shit, I finally know what deception is... His Highness Ning is so powerful... I never thought he was an artist? The Eighth Route Army is actually real, and those stars in the sky are blood elves! Magical blood elves!"
Waves of exclamations from the staff members were heard from time to time. The suspicion on their faces gradually faded away, but the look of disbelief became even stronger.
"So, that's it. We're back."
The storyteller Xiao Sanyu ended his story unfinished.
…
"This can be written as a magical novel... No, this is a novel... How can there be so many adventures in reality..."
A staff officer murmured. He was about to say something more, but the sound of another motorcade interrupted him.
"Our chief of staff has arrived, should we let her coordinate and command the army first, and then we can slowly catch up on old times?"
Huzi, however, thought of business.
Everyone's eyes also followed Huzi's words and looked at a command vehicle that was guarded by several tanks.
The car door opened, and a handsome girl jumped out of the car quickly.
"Hello, Chief of Staff!"
Huzi was already leading the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army tanks who got out of the vehicle first to salute Lin Qi.
…
The girl looked around the yard curiously, and even returned a standard military salute to Huzi and the others. The black military uniform wrapped her figure in a cool and beautiful manner, with an iron-blooded solemnity.
"Is this the general command? Why does it look like there has just been a big battle... Oh, it seems that Aolai set a few fires? Where is the commander? Have you informed them of our intention?"
She looked at Huzi and asked repeatedly.
"Reporting to the chief of staff, I don't know. We just arrived - you asked us to contact you first, but we ended up introducing our origins... Mainly because there was a lot to say..."
Huzi scratched his head shyly, but looked at the crowd around him.
…
The staff around him had already looked straight at him.
"This... this beauty is the Chief of Staff of the Eighth Route Army? Is she the Chief of Staff Lin that Brother Huzi mentioned? Miracle Night at Hongye Ridge?"
A staff officer murmured in shock.
"too small……"
"beautiful……"
"Really a soldier?"
"She looks like a female military doctor in a field hospital..."
Mixed words came out of their mouths with an incredible taste.
…
"what are you guys saying?"
Hu Zi raised his eyebrows: "This is the chief of staff of our Eighth Route Army, General Lin Qi! She is our commander-in-chief. His Royal Highness Yongwu Xie Ning of the Empire personally appointed her. She is also deeply trusted by our commander-in-chief.
A genius commander who is deeply supported by all the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army of our empire. I have mentioned her battle record to you just now - people of the empire. Where is your manner? Is this the attitude you have when meeting your commander?"
He shouted solemnly.
"Salute to you, sir!"
The staff members were stunned. They looked at the several shining gold stars on the girl's shoulder straps, and recalled what Huzi and the others had just introduced. They suddenly became solemn and saluted one after another.
…
"Take a break."
The girl raised her head proudly, returned the salute, ordered softly, and strode towards the command hall.
"You are all staff members of the headquarters? Where is the commander-in-chief of our army?"
She walked in stride, but asked softly.
"Reporting to the commander. The commander-in-chief is Imperial Star Yao. He has gone to hunt down the barbarians who have just raided the War Emperor we are referring to. Oh, His Highness Ning... If that person is indeed His Highness Ning, he has also gone."
A staff officer followed the girl and replied awkwardly.
…
"Is he another guy who ignores the army for the sake of fighting and leaves all command to his chief of staff..."
The girl laughed and shook her head: "Then you should also have a chief of staff who is responsible for combat command? Where is the chief of staff? I have to communicate with him about coordination matters."
"Reporting to the commander. We have never had a chief of staff. The specific combat command has always been under the responsibility of the deputy chief of staff, General Xia Tian. But just now... he died."
A staff officer replied in a low voice. His eyes had already glanced at a quiet figure covered with flags in the hall.
The girl stopped. She followed the sights of the staff and slowly gave a solemn military salute to the figure.
…
"Then how did you manage your command system now? No one is in charge now?"
Then, she turned around and asked in a low voice.
"Reporting to the commander, we are preparing to command the battle - actually it is a defensive battle, there is nothing to command. We have been surrounded by barbarians, and each unit is struggling to fight on its own..."
A combat staff member replied with a wry smile.
"Yes, sir. We just lost command for a period of time due to a series of changes."
Another combat staff officer also added in embarrassment.
"No wonder you...it didn't take long, and things...maybe very unbelievable. You must take some time to recover."
The girl smiled softly.
…
Then, her expression was full of pride and seriousness.
"So, now. Before the Commander-in-Chief and our Commander-in-Chief come back, I, Lin Qi, Chief of Staff of the Eighth Route Army of the Empire, will take over the command of the army. Do you have any objections?"
She said proudly.
The staff officers looked at each other.
"Sir, we have no objection... As long as what Brother Huzi said just now is true - there is no need for them to come to save us and lie to us. However, we will ask whether the various armies of the empire will obey your command.
I can’t guarantee it, after all, you have not been officially authorized by the commander-in-chief.”
A staff officer hesitated for a long time but said in a low voice.
…
"That doesn't matter. All I want is a unified order from the command center. As for the empire's armies...if they are not all stupid, they should be able to tell the difference between good and bad, and they will take the initiative to follow the favorable fighter opportunities that appear."
The girl smiled.
"You guys first report the battle situation."
Her eyes were wandering on the sand table. But with the help of what seemed to be the staff of the Eighth Route Army staff she brought, she placed small flags one after another on the battle circle between the barbarians and the imperial army, and then marked them
Some messy lines.
At the same time, she said softly.
After the combat staff respectfully reported, the young commander also completed her sand table transformation.
…
"The goddess of the empire...is this really happening? Oh my god, are Brother Genius and Lele both prophecy emperors? No wonder Xie Ning feels confused every day...Is this really true? No wonder the battle situation felt a bit strange when we came..."
The girl had a look of disbelief and confusion on her face, and then she quickly woke up again.
"Where is she? Is she safe? I must meet her if I have the chance... Your Highness the Goddess? It's incredible."
The girl's eyes were full of curiosity and she asked an imperial staff officer beside her.
"She was being attacked by a barbarian assassin at that time, suspected of being Ning Dian... No, His Highness Ning suddenly appeared and rescued her. Now she should be on that strange phoenix. She is safe... There should be no problem, with His Highness Ning here.
.”
The staff officer replied in shock.
"That's also...that guy, who can hurt him? When he was still a big demon, he took me -"
The girl laughed and shook her head. Then her face turned red, but she hesitated to speak.
…
"When they come back, I must pay homage to her. Where is His Highness the Goddess? I don't know what kind of person she is. How old is she? What kind of person is she? Forget about the military emergency, we will talk about it later. Anyway, she and the commander
I can see him when he comes back."
The girl awkwardly changed the topic. She spoke with interest and brought her thoughts back on track.
What she didn't notice was that Hu Zi, who had followed them to the hall, already had a strange look on his face, but he kept saying something in the ears of old housekeeper Gu.
After hearing the girl's last words, for a moment, the two Xie family retainers, one old and one young, who were chatting incessantly, looked at the girl at the same time, with extremely strange looks on their faces...
"Okay, now, Chief of Staff Lin and King Long'er are going against the king, and the suspected future young lady is going against the king with the real young lady... and both sides don't have time to react - Long'er is going to be finished, and so is Brother Ning.
