Chapter 955: Position of Commander!
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
In the capital, within a eting hall, the commanders of Yue Zhong’s Northern forces were all gathered.
Due to Yue Zhong taking down the capital and moving on to the 2nd World within a short period of ti, most of those in the capital were Yue Zhong’s Northern subordinates.
Guang Xi and Hu Nan, on the other hand, had considerably lesser subordinates, only a few that had followed Yue Zhong early on had been left there to oversee things.
Inside the eting hall, there was Chen Yan, Chen Yao, Ji Qing Wu, Li Shi Min, Lian Da Zhong, Cha Bi Lai, Hu-er Ran, Li Guang, Lie Ming Yi, Bai Xiao Sheng, Yu Wen Ying, as well as many others.
Each of them held considerable authority, while their forces had nothing much to do with each other, thus it was hard to command.
Ji Qing Wu swept a gaze over everybody and spoke solemnly, "I’m sure that everyone knows this by now. Russia has sent out a 20,000-strong force towards Hu Hot City. We have to stop them."
Her words had just landed, Lie Ming Yi interrupted sowhat rudely, "Wait a minute, before the eting comnces, I have so questions. Miss Ji Qing Wu, you’re the stand-in commander assigned by Leader Yue Zhong, with the authority to call for etings. However, I feel that with your strength, it’s not enough."
Bai Xiao Sheng eyed Lie Ming Yi coldly, his voice turning incredibly icy, "Lie Ming Yi, are you intending to go against Leader Yue Zhong’s words, and betray him?"
Lie Ming Yi’s brows arched, as he turned to look at everybody, "Of course not. However, I feel that we shouldn’t be commanded by a lady. Haven’t we had enough of problems caused by won throughout history? Jiang Xi, Empress Dowager Cixi, Empress Lü, it was because of these won that past dynasties had fallen. I just don’t want to see Leader Yue Zhong’s hard work wrecked at the hands of a woman when he gets back. What do you guys think?"
Hearing his words, everyone maintained silent, their eyes flashing with strange glints.
Within this eting, there were more n than won. When Yue Zhong had left, and appointed Ji Qing Wu as his substitute, many were not happy with the decision inwardly.
Lian Da Zhong, Cha Bi Lai, Hu-er Ran, Li Guang, Lie Ming Yi, Yu Wen Ying, these prideful n were dissatisfied with Ji Qing Wu holding the reins.
If it was not for Yue Zhong appearing in the Evolving Temple through his hologram every once in awhile, and notified every one of his status, these prideful riders would have long since staged an uprising to chase Ji Qing Wu away.
Ji Qing Wu glanced at these n, and could not help but frown as well. In her position, it had truly been difficult.
In Hunan, Guang Xi and Mongolia, Ji Qing Wu had the most support in Hunan and Mongolia because she had followed Yue Zhong all the way in growing and expanding his power.
However, in Guang Xi, it was a lot lesser, instead, Chen Yao was more popular.
Under such circumstances, it had been difficult for her to carry out instructions to grow and expand Yue Zhong’s faction during his absence. When she had taken over the reins, she had felt his headache and stress for the first ti. Especially since she did not have his outlook, it was harder to command his forces.
At this ti, Chen Yao piped in directly, "Lie Ming Yi, Ji Qing Wu’s position had been assigned by Yue Zhong. During this year, she had grown our faction considerably. Everyone had seen this for themselves. On what grounds do you have to accuse her of insufficient ability?"
Lie Ming Yi’s face remained unchanged, "Miss Ji Qing Wu truly had perford exceptionally this year. I’m not questioning that. However, this is with regards to governance. In terms of war, our expansion had truly been small. Furthermore, she had not led any large armies before. Thus, the upcoming battle between the 2 countries should not be left to her. It’s not right."
In the year of Yue Zhong’s absence, Ji Qing Wu had focused all her attention on the internal aspects, expanding capabilities and manufacturing. They had also managed to wipe out over 4 million zombies.
This was also due to the difference in their mindset, Yue Zhong liked to take risks, charging on the frontlines, storming new grounds and expanding his power. Whereas Ji Qing Wu was more introverted, preferring to stabilize the foundations from within. She continued to firm up the governnt and restarted industrialism, improving the lives of the commoners. However, the reclamation of land was not as rapid as Yue Zhong’s.
Hearing his words, many of the commanders kept silent. They were not able to put their lives under the authority of a lady on the battlefield.
Ji Qing Wu’s brows furrowed as she asked, "Since it’s like this, Lie Ming Yi, who do you think should command the upcoming battle?"
Lie Ming Yi laughed out confidently, "It should be , of course. I have the experience. Our 2nd Regint has outstanding achievents, following Leader through the countless battles from south to north. We had established much and been through much. As the commander of the 2nd Regint, I would definitely have no problems leading the battle to co."
This ti, China’s opponent was the Russian army, if one could take the command and lead the army to victory, they would receive accolades and rits of the highest order. It was the dream of any commander. Lie Ming Yi was naturally not willing to give it up.
Li Guang could not help himself as well, "No. In terms of achievents, it should be our 1st Regint. We had been loyal from day one and been through more than your 2nd Regint. As the commander of the 1st Regint, it should be to command the troops."
Leading an entire country’s forces, facing the forces of another country, it was truly an honor to behold. Li Guang would not let it pass to soone else. Even if it was a friendly force.
Seeing how they both would not let up, Hu-er Ran’s eyes flashed with envy. He was the commander of the 3rd Regint, but due to his past, he knew he had no right in contending for the main commander position. As long as Yue Zhong was not dead, he would have no chance.
By now, the 3rd Regint was already integrated with the main forces and had slowly grown more important. However, if they were to rebel, their forces would still be wiped out without a mont’s hesitation.
Suddenly, an indifferent voice sounded from outside the hall, "I shall assu the position of commander."
