A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier!
Every soldier longs in his heart to become a general, command thousands of troops, achieve great military exploits, and have a reputation that will be passed down through the ages.
However, one general can make a thousand bones wither!
There are currently more than three million active-duty soldiers in China, and among them, the total number of generals fighting against Venus is only more than 300. Each one of them is one of a million.
To become a major general, you need to serve for at least thirty years.
As for the generals who have three gold stars on their shoulders, there are only about thirty of them in total in the country. Each one of them is a big shot in one party and holds a lot of power. Ordinary soldiers may not have the chance to get close to them in their lifetime.
At this moment, in the open space in front of the runway, there were more than ten people wearing dark green military uniforms, the lowest ranking ones, all carrying a gold star on their shoulders.
The two old men in the center and the three gold stars on their shoulders are even more dazzling, symbolizing the supreme status.
But in front of the two people, there was an old man standing, wearing coarse linen clothes, who looked a little awkward among the military uniforms.
Although he is old, his spine is as straight as a needle in the sea, and his eyes are piercing, revealing his domineering will.
There is no doubt that this old man is——
Xiang Pojun!
Xiang Pojun is the leader of the Eastern Divine Sword. Although he does not hold a military rank, his qualifications and the actual power he can control are far better than those of a general with three gold stars on his shoulders.
If it was a formal occasion, many military bosses in the venue would salute and call him "chief" when they saw him.
Now, led by Xiang Pojun, the top brass from the entire East China Military Region gathered here to welcome Ye Fan's triumphant return.
This is the first time such a large battle has occurred since the founding of the People's Republic of China.
If the news spreads, it will definitely cause an uproar.
And looking at this situation, they have been waiting here for a long time.
For a moment, Ye Fan became a little nervous. He straightened his back with a determined expression, hugged the five-color sacred stone, and walked quickly towards the military bosses.
"Kick!"
"Kick!"
"Kick!"
Sonorous and powerful footsteps echoed in the vast open space.
Unknowingly, Pei Wu deliberately fell one position behind and was willing to become a foil.
Because she knew that the reason why so many big guys gathered here was all because of Mark!
At this moment, Ye Fan is the well-deserved protagonist.
His body exuded an invisible brilliance, as if it could compete with the sun and the moon, and everything around him seemed bleak compared to him.
…
"Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!"
All the eyes in the arena fell on Ye Fan.
The faces of many military bosses revealed expressions of surprise that could not be concealed.
Even though they were mentally prepared in advance, Ye Fan's choice of young and immature face still shocked them.
In terms of age, Ye Fan is more than enough to be their grandson.
No one could imagine that such a young man, single-handedly and armed with a three-foot green sword, could destroy a Japanese King Kong-class destroyer.
When Ye Fan walked up to the crowd, Xiang Pojun, the leader, suddenly shouted:
"salute!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiang Pojun and more than a dozen military leaders behind him raised their right hands at the same time and saluted Ye Fan with an impeccable military salute.
Their movements were uniform, as if they had been rehearsed thousands of times in advance.
Under the sunlight, in addition to solemnity, everyone's faces also showed a sense of reverence and admiration.
This scene fell into the eyes of some soldiers in the distance, but it caused an unprecedented visual impact on the soldiers.
More than an hour ago, when these military bosses came together, the soldiers patrolling around secretly speculated in their hearts that it was most likely that a certain leader from Yanjing was coming soon, so that so many military bosses were waiting here.
Who knew that what so many generals were waiting for turned out to be a little-known young man.
This is really incredible!
The same question emerged in the minds of many soldiers——
Who is this young man?!
…
Seeing so many military leaders saluting him, Ye Fan certainly did not dare to neglect him. He quickly placed the five-color sacred stone in his arms on the ground and saluted everyone in return.
Immediately afterwards, Xiang Pojun walked forward quickly, looked at him with approval, and said in a deep voice:
"Xiao Fan, I really saw you right! If you hadn't been here this time, the consequences would have been disastrous! It is a great blessing for our country to have a warrior like you!"
"Lao Xiang, I just did my duty! In that case, I believe that every Chinese soldier will come forward!" Ye Fan said solemnly.
Although Ye Fan said it modestly, everyone in the room knew that if the Japanese warships were allowed to run rampant in the East China Sea and take away the five-color sacred stone, it would be a great humiliation for China!
In times of crisis, it was Ye Fan who turned the tide and reversed the situation, even making the Japanese country pay a heavy price.
This achievement cannot be described simply in words.
However, Ye Fan did not take credit for his pride and was arrogant because of his favor. This attitude was already better than ninety-nine percent of the people in the world.
At this time, Xiang Pojun pointed to the two big men behind him who were holding three gold stars on their shoulders, and introduced: "Xiaofan, these two are Yang Guozhong, the commander of the East China Military Region, and Zhou Xiong, the political commissar!"
"Hello, Commander Yang! Hello, Political Commissar Zhou!" Ye Fan greeted him neither humble nor overbearing.
"Hahaha..." Yang Guozhong let out a hearty laugh and said: "Sure enough, a hero comes from a young age! Comrade Ye Fan, your outstanding military exploits this time have alarmed the entire military. We old guys can't wait to rush to the East China Sea.
,witness that scene with your own eyes!”
"Yes!" Zhou Xiong continued: "Back then, the little Japanese used strong ships and cannons to blast open the door to our China! But now, times have changed. How can we let them be tyrannical and do whatever they want! Comrade Ye Fan, if I
I am several decades younger, and I wish I could fight alongside you!"
Suddenly, Xiang Pojun turned his head, looked at the five-color sacred stone on the ground, and asked in a deep voice: "Xiaofan, is this stone the mysterious crystal that the Japanese country wants to snatch?"
"good!"
Ye Fan nodded and explained: "Mr. Xiang, this stone can allow ordinary people to awaken their superpowers, and it is also of great benefit to martial arts experts! After the Japanese country found out, they fought for it at all costs! If it weren't for this assessment being held in
On Chidao, I am afraid that this crystal stone has fallen into the hands of the Japanese country."
Upon hearing this, Xiang Pojun walked over quickly, put his hand on the five-color sacred stone, closed his eyes tightly, and used his spiritual consciousness to detect.
After a moment, he suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes brightened, and he said: "Such pure and vast energy is the only one I have ever seen in my life. It can at least cultivate hundreds of B-level superpowers. No wonder those Japanese guys are so coveted!"
Hearing this, more than a dozen military bosses around him were amazed.
With their status, they are qualified to know information about superpowers, so they naturally know how powerful they are.
Only one million people have a chance of being born with a superpower, and most of the superpowers are at level C or D.
People with super powers above level B are very rare, and their combat power is even more astonishing.
If hundreds of B-level superpowers can be cultivated through this mysterious crystal, it will be even more powerful for the Chinese military.
At this moment, Xiang Pojun turned around and looked at Ye Fan, and said in a deep voice: "Xiaofan, our Eastern Divine Sword has clear rewards and punishments! You have made great achievements in battle this time, and the organization will see it, and you will definitely not accept it."
I will treat you badly!"
As he spoke, Xiang Pojun's expression changed, becoming solemn and majestic, and he took out a small box from his pocket.
Seeing him taking things so seriously, Ye Fan was extremely curious.
Xiang Pojun didn't hold back and quickly opened the box.
Looking from a distance, I saw two epaulettes inside the box.
Each epaulette is inlaid with a golden general star, which blooms dazzlingly in the sun.
Seeing this epaulette, Ye Fan's pupils shrank suddenly, an incredible expression appeared on his face, and he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Mr. Xiang, this is...?"
Xiang Pojun stared at him, his eyes like torches, straightened his spine, and said majestically:
"During the assessment, Comrade Ye Fan destroyed a Japanese enemy ship with one person's power, which showed the prestige of our country and glorified our China! After discussion by the Military Committee, it was unanimously decided to award Comrade Ye Fan the rank of Major General as an exception!"
