One hundred and ninety nine chapters, under the chaos
Dozens of kilometers around the capital of the Mountain Kingdom turned into powder, and actually sank for dozens of meters. Seeing this scene, the heads of state were shocked. This was not a situation after a nuclear bomb exploded, but was created by an incredible force. Yes, because on the dividing line, there are lush green vegetation on one side and flying powder on the other. They are two completely different worlds. Unless it is intentional, the shock wave of such a huge explosion alone is enough to destroy the vegetation and buildings with a radius of hundreds of meters. Where can this happen? It's like being okay.
When they thought that such a huge power actually belonged to the Dragon Kingdom, the heads of state who were originally prepared to warn the Dragon Kingdom not to annex the Mountain Kingdom all shrank their necks and did not dare to say anything. As for why they concluded that it was the Dragon Kingdom without any evidence. What the country does is very simple, just look at who gets the benefit. After the explosion, the god of the Mountain Kingdom disappeared and the capital was destroyed. No matter how you look at it, it is the Dragon Kingdom that takes advantage.
The Dragon Kingdom first carefully advanced a distance of several hundred kilometers, and then set up camp. After confirming that there was no nuclear contamination in the capital of the Mountain Kingdom, the Dragon Kingdom army, which had surrounded all the borders of the Mountain Kingdom, rushed forward without saying a word. went up, and then held a ceremony of sea, land and air gathering on the edge of the huge pothole, officially announcing to the world that the Dragon Kingdom had completely occupied the Mountain Kingdom.
The heads of state sent envoys to test how the Dragon Kingdom should deal with the Shanyue Kingdom's tendencies. The result surprised them, who were already frustrated. The military requested that the Shanyue Kingdom be merged into the Dragon Kingdom, while the Long Kingdom's government directly stated that after the punishment was completed, the Shanyue Kingdom could be allowed to Re-electing a new president means directly abandoning the world's poorest country, so as not to drag down the Dragon Kingdom's economy. And the parliament, one of the three giants, has different opinions, because the parliament feels that this poor small country should be turned into a satellite country, so that They govern themselves. Of course, such satellite states will not have military or diplomatic power.
As soon as they discovered that the three giants of the Dragon Kingdom actually had three opinions, the world's heads of state immediately sent plenipotentiary envoys over, fanning the flames and attracting the attention of the entire world to the Dragon Kingdom.
However, after a few days of excitement, the military suddenly announced that it would reward combatants and would appoint a deputy commander-in-chief to assist the commander-in-chief in commanding the troops. The previous announcement was nothing, but the following news shocked the whole world. People from all walks of life in politics and throughout the Dragon Kingdom.
The reason for this is that the class system of the Dragon Kingdom's army is particularly unique. There is only one military marshal. Although this super boss only has a military rank and no military position, it is because he has the highest military rank that he is the real leader of the military. The leader, but no one dares to peek at his position. The highest military rank today is general, not even general and deputy commander.
In fact, when everyone admires the marshal, they also wish that the old immortal would die soon, because all the generals and deputy marshals of his generation are dead, leaving him as the founding marshal. But damn, this in itself is the foundation of this dragon. The marshal of the country has a long life. It has been decades since the founding of the country. He is still alive and kicking, and he actually has extraordinary powers.
It can be said that as long as the marshal is here, the loyalty of the entire Dragon Kingdom army cannot be to anyone else. Even the government parliament dare not say a word in the face of the marshal's order. Who knows that you are all juniors, and this system and position are all for others. For you, the only good thing is that the marshal usually doesn't pay attention to worldly affairs. If a god hadn't suddenly appeared and got involved, the invasion of the Mountain Kingdom would not have attracted his attention at all.
Okay, having said all that, we already know that the marshal is the god of the army and is not the goal that everyone pursues. Therefore, the biggest ambition in the army is to become the commander-in-chief of the three armies of the Dragon Kingdom. This position only has retirement years. In other words, no matter what you do When you sit on it, as long as you reach the 65-year-old retirement age of a general, you have to give up your position. This is written into military regulations, so countless careerists are desperate to become the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces at the age of 30. This can still be managed. The authority lasts for thirty years.
It's just a pity that if you want to become the commander-in-chief of the three services, either the commander-in-chief is old or has made a mistake and vacates the position. Otherwise, don't even think about it. There are also people who want to climb into the position of deputy and cause mischief. But in order to ensure the majesty of the commander-in-chief of the three services, There is no deputy commander-in-chief among military positions.
Therefore, over the past few decades, the Long Kingdom military has also replaced several generations of first brothers, but no matter how they are replaced, there is only one commander-in-chief of the three services. Below the commander-in-chief of the three services are the four chiefs of staff, equipment, logistics, and intelligence, as well as the southeast, northwest and central commanders. The commanders of the five major military regions, the commanders of the army, navy, army, special forces, marine services and the commanders of the military regions are still ranked at the third level.
So these 9 big guys are the so-called second brothers in the military. Every commander-in-chief of the armed forces is selected from these 9 big guys.
But now there is a deputy commander-in-chief of the armed forces. What a joke. Not to mention the nine big guys who can jump in the wings, the commanders of the services and the commanders of the military regions can also jump in. Even if this order is issued by the marshal, everyone must fight to the death. Why is this happening? , it’s very simple, the second brother has 9 positions, and the third brother has more positions.
If you want to have a chance to become the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, you naturally have to become one of the nine giants. But now that a Deputy Commander-in-Chief appears and is completely the successor, doesn’t it give you one more step to climb? The crown prince's position is too obvious. Anyone who sits on it will have trouble sleeping. If he really had a chance to sit on it, he wouldn't be able to close his eyes every day and have to stare hard. If it's so hard, it's better not to set this up. The position is hidden among the 9 big bosses and each group of factions, and then even if he suddenly becomes the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, he will not be afraid of people staring at him.
Public opinions around the world immediately boiled over, and the Dragon Kingdom also made a lot of comments, because although the Dragon Kingdom's system is strange, it actually separates the military, political and parliamentary powers, and the independent judicial power of other countries is directly transferred to the legislative parliament. However, in any case, these three powers do not have a clear successor except for one head. The three systems all have one vote for candidate successors.
Now that there are such changes in the Dragon Kingdom's military, does it mean that the government and parliament will also see such changes? Some people are worried, some are gearing up, and some public opinions are protesting. Most of the protesters do not want to show up. The position of the bird, because once the successor is changed, it will be a big event and cause turmoil.
Some support, and the supporters think that it is good to have a successor, so that they know who to flatter or target, and do not need to spread their firepower on the second level with a large number of people. Anyway, regardless of protest or support, the entire Dragon Kingdom will be in chaos.
As the day for the military headquarters to summon all officers above the rank of colonel to the military headquarters for a meeting was getting closer, armies across the country and garrisons in the mountains stopped their activities, and officers above the rank of colonel took planes to Kyoto, the Dragon Kingdom.
Because this is a military matter, the plane goes directly to the military airport, and there are military vehicles to pick up and drop off when it sets off to the military headquarters auditorium, not to mention the military headquarters auditorium, which is blocked by the army one kilometer away. This makes countries around the world The reporters were so anxious that they scratched their heads and jumped up and down, but they could not interview an officer above the rank of colonel. They had no choice but to recruit some soldiers and officers below the rank of colonel for interviews. Interviewing these officers and soldiers who were disciplined and knew nothing about anything, the results were incredible. As you know, the news in newspapers around the world is naturally all kinds of strange, completely left to the random writing of these reporters.
The auditorium looks neat at first glance, but anyone with a discerning eye can understand at a glance that the officers are not seated according to their military ranks, but according to their respective factions and military regions. If you use a computer to color these officers into 9 colors, they will immediately It can be seen that the officers in this auditorium are divided into 9 distinct flowers, but these 9 flowers are also divided into countless smaller flowers.
There is a window directly above the rostrum in the auditorium through which you can see the situation below, but what appears below is just a row of speakers.
Marshal Long Guo stood behind the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the crowd surging below with an indifferent expression. Behind him stood a general wearing a military cap with the rank of general on his shoulders. Due to the lighting problem, it was impossible to see the crowd at all. I couldn't see the man's face clearly, but he was not tall, but he had a straight back and looked very military.
The room was silent for a while, and the marshal snorted coldly: "Look at these guys below. Any organization has factions and factions. I understand this, but they actually did it so obviously. It's really too much, and these guys have already arrived. You only care about the interests of factions and ignore the overall interests. You want our Dragon Kingdom army to collapse." At this point, the marshal turned to look at the general: "So don't blame me for pushing you to that position. Those people below It won’t work if we don’t clean it up properly,”
The general obviously wanted to say something, but the marshal stopped him with a wave of his hand: "Okay, no need to talk nonsense, just obey the order and go on."
The general hesitated for a moment, then straightened up, stood at attention, saluted, turned and left.
The marshal turned around and looked at the many officers below, and said to himself in a cold voice: "Hmph, even if he is condemned by the world, I will admit it, but who told me that the person I selected is indeed the only candidate in the army. In this case, I have selfish motives. So what, who have I ever been afraid of?" When he said this, a fierce and fierce aura surged up.
The commander of the Southwest Military Region now has a look of suppressed joy. Not only him, but also the officers surrounding him look the same, because the army unit that counterattacked Shanyue Kingdom this time is from their Southwest Military Region. He deserves all the credit for such a contribution. Let's move up a rank.
The commander with the rank of lieutenant general waved his military rank on his shoulders and smiled in his heart. He believed that he would be able to add one more gold star later, and his chances of climbing to the 10 seats on the rostrum would be greater. Hey, it's eleven. position, and the seats were deliberately pulled open to highlight the two central positions. One is for the commander-in-chief of the armed services, and the other is for the deputy commander-in-chief. It’s just that everyone was ready to protest, but they were displayed in such a careless manner. , thinking of these, the commander's face immediately darkened.
And Colonel Chen looked at his epaulettes with excitement. Although he had not made any achievements, since it was a post-war reward, how could he be missing out on his own status? If the military rank was promoted by one level, Then wouldn't he become the youngest senior colonel in the army? Hehe, as long as his reputation is publicized and coupled with his family background, it is not impossible to aspire to be the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces in ten years.
However, while being excited, Colonel Chen was also a little strange. How did his grandpa, the marshal, come up with the position of deputy commander-in-chief, and who the candidate was. His father and uncle were all confused. Could it be that this decision was made on a whim by his grandpa? from.
When they were thinking wildly, military music sounded, all the officers stood up, and then they saw the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces and nine giant generals walking onto the rostrum amidst the sound of mighty music.
