Chapter 2915 Return Fleet
At a time when His Majesty the Emperor and His Highness the Queen of the New Empire, deeply shocked by the news of a landslide split, could barely control the facial nerves and the tremors of their hands, and the Emperor was far opposite the Yellow Dragon Realm of the Song capital, the so-called "Old Empire”, His Majesty the Emperor Chengwu, on the near Earth orbit of the main star, in a starship as powerful as a battle knife out of sheath, some sighed, distressed by the intricate and pitch-black situation ahead of them.
That was the last power of the Emperor's family in the four major elections, the Supreme Commander of the United Fleet, the Imperial Under-Secretary General “Song is not coming home”.
Two successive tragic defeats in the Battle of the Seven Seas and the Emperor's Capital led to the instantaneous collapse of the originally stable situation, and the loss of the half-baked river and mountain. It was a total defeat, from the holding of the winning ticket to the peril. Finally, the family of four major election emperors came out with the spirit of peanut rice size a little bit of "sincere solidarity”. We all agreed that today, when the "Vajra fleet” and “Imperial Fleet” are in a sinking sand and even the opposite direction, the defeat of their respective weak handicapped soldiers will be scattered in an island like territory, and will only be destroyed by the innovators like rainbows, one by one.
The only way out is to assemble the few remaining new and sharp battleships and defend "the dignity of His Majesty the Wu Emperor and the four main election emperors”.
As a result, this joint fleet was born.
From the name of the fleet given by His Majesty Emperor Chengwu, the word "return to heaven”, you can see the importance attached to this final fleet up and down the “Old Empire”.
But Song, the supreme commander of the "Returning Fleet”, did not return, but he was not the most wanted commander. Even he knew very well that he was only the result of a power struggle, compromise and helplessness.
In the sequence of the Imperial Army that brightened the stars, Song, who was 184-year-old this year, did not count as such a brilliant famous general, nor did it have anything to do with such adjectives as courageous and courageous, resourceful and resourceful. In his more than 150 years of military journey, despite dozens of bloody and vicious wars, how could he relax the conditions, let alone find classic warfare examples that could be included in textbooks, let alone the gorgeous results of "more than a few victories, a thousand miles of raids”.
He is a very mediocre, no personal style, no ordinary general of any character, rather than a general of the horizontal sandbox, rather than a regular civil servant. In the first half of his military career, he tends to appear in the face of a staff officer or deputy, waiting for his qualifications to reach the point where he can be alone, and often goes to the barren world of desert smokeless people, or to take charge of tasks such as logistics escort. He has spent more than a decade in the idle position of commander and director of education of the Imperial Fleet, and he has been unexpectedly promoted to a commanding officer of the army in one aspect, only to carry a black pot that no one can carry.
In dozens of blood and evil wars, his performance can only be described as passing - he has fought a defeat, but not so rarely, and in the worst case he can safely evacuate with 80% of the remnants, he has fought a victory and missed a good opportunity because of hesitation, and he has spared no good opportunity to expand the battle and get promoted to wealth.
Overall, this is a no-good idea that nobody would normally think of, but it's a good comparison, and it doesn't have much of a drawback.
As a fixer, Song did not necessarily have ambition when he was young, but after more than a hundred years of climbing, paying the price of countless blood tears, and wandering through the door of the ghost door dozens of times, the gradual old Song did not return very clearly, he was just a vain and inactive generation, and did not have the ability to achieve ambition.
Before the Four Families launched a fierce attack on the Seven Stars, he again failed in the family struggle and was kicked back to the cold bench of the Education Director of the Imperial Fleet and the Song Family Reserve Commander. At that time, he was already desperate to sit on this cold bench until he died, but he never thought that, just six months later, he could become the last elite commander of the Four Families, one of the two “big men” in the Imperial Army.
Of course, Song does not belong to the self-aware, knowing what is going on - surrender and die, take away his talented, brilliant colleagues one by one, Yun Xuefeng and Song Yushi in the Seven Seas, and the numerous real materials and related commanders at all levels in the four Imperial Fleet, either die in battle or fall into the hands of the revolutionaries, to an extremely dishonorable end.
Thus, the senior members of the four large families fleeing the desert finally stabilized their feet and wandered around, surprised to find that they could not choose a fleet commander with both prestige and command art!
Also because the main forces of the four families are now broken down, there is an urgent need to redeploy a large number of reserves and recruits to enrich the fleet. Song, who has been the director of education of the Imperial Fleet for many years and commander of the Song Family Reserve, is not returning, and has become the only candidate that all parties can pinch their noses to endorse.
Song did not return so rarely became the supreme commander of the Returning Fleet, and was also awarded a brazen category of "sub-marshal” rank - this is the new rank established after the New Empire boarded, the Empire had only the distinction between general and marshal. For the supreme commander of the United Fleet of the Four Families, the rank of Marshal could not be awarded in any way, like “opposite” Lei Chenghu, but I'm afraid even Song did not himself think that awarding him the rank of marshal was ridiculous, too much, too sorry for the imperial marshal over the past hundred years, so let's say sub-marshal!
At least, Song doesn't go back to look at the second handsome rank on his shoulder. He thinks these two words are just like his current embarrassing situation, so it's no longer appropriate.
Though he became the supreme commander of the Returning Fleet, theoretically the "military boss", Song did not have any authoritarian consciousness - he knew very well that his supreme commander was merely a mascot on the table, with professional command and advice at best, but the Returning Fleet was not a united fleet at all, its control remained firmly in the hands of the big men of the various families, without the approval of the Emperor Hou, and he could not even command the Song family's own fleet.
The control under his hands is weak to say nothing. Dozens of “mother-in-law” are still pressed on his head. The so-called dogs cannot change their shit. The noblemen of the four large families are not competing for power to gain profit, but it is more impossible than the dogs not to eat shit. Even in the early days of the Great Failure, the four families were able to unite in good faith and form the Heavenly Fleet, but after standing still slightly, the nature of selfish self-interest will undoubtedly be revealed. Especially after the reign of the new monarch, the successful "from the dragon's ministry”, not to cover up their own rights and ambitions, the seller duke, massive rewards, open fights, and the opportunity to take office and other things, are often unusual, infinite and intensifying!
Think about it, the court held by the four families has been broken to such a degree that even the emperor has been thrown away. If we want to gather our hearts together again, there is only one way to go.
And the collapse of the King Kong fleet and the Imperial Card fleet, countless generals and grandfathers have fallen, and it is just right that a large number of positions have been emptied. When is the time not to send a big official hat?
Song didn't care about these heart-wrecking, messy things - just thinking that he was going to be a tiger against Hou Lei of Liao Hai, known as the "god of war", would be enough to make Cesar shake, his eyes black!
More than 50 years ago, Song did not return to work with Lei Chenghu for some time, when he knew exactly what was meant by "famous generals” and how many gaps existed between himself and real famous generals.
Song does not think that he will go two ways. Either on the battlefield, he was smashed down like a tiger chopping melon, and together with the flagship, he was destroyed by a grey smoke. Either, he defeated the ground and went back to his place. He carried this big and heavy black pot on his back and accepted Wu Emperor's anger and military law sanctions.
If it wasn't so dangerous, how could the throne of "Commander of the Returning Fleet" stick to his ass, how could he not get rid of it?
Song didn't want to worry about that shit in the court.
But the new king, or the four electorate emperors, in order to gather the hearts and minds of the people, the ranks, the entire court and the military bureaucracy swelled, the military ministry in addition to the command ministry, the military ministry and above the general staff, the general staff next to the establishment of the commanding ministry, and all of this messy structure, is “coordinated” by a major battalion, above the main battalion, Another goddamn military committee was set up, this ministry, that battalion, dozens of ministers, chief executives, deputy directors and commissioners, each of them able to intervene in the preparation and command of the Heavenly Fleet; each of them threw countless "magic tricks” to defeat the “god of war” Lei Chenghu without any effort; each of them stared with utmost vigilance at Song not returning, just without poking his finger at him. On the tip of his nose, reproach him for fear of the Tigers and even for insinuating the rebels.
If the rebels were not implicated, why did the fleet of the revolutionary rebel party loot in the Song family's territory, glow and even defeat several reinforcements and supply fleets in a row? He is the commander who holds the strongest force in the four families. He is still stubborn and fearless.
The general general director, deputy director, minister, etc., Song can still “hum" to deal with the past.
But in the face of Song Lixing's questioning of "Chairman of the Supreme Military Council of the Real Human Empire”, Song can't afford to do anything without returning.
Not only because Song Lixing is his top boss in the military system, but also because Song Lixing has made great achievements in supporting the new king in power, “Holy Family Zhenglong”, and also because Song Lixing is one of the four main election emperors, the eldest son of the Song family owner, the next emperor and the most promising heir of the Song family, naturally eats Song from all sides to death!
