Chapter 993 The Grand Investiture Ceremony
In retrospect, too much time has passed since the threat of the Soul Empire appeared, and now it has been completely overthrown. During this period, when the soldiers of the two armies resisted bravely, there were too many sacrifices and tragedies.
Now, the Soul Empire has finally been completely destroyed. After the last remaining base was destroyed, the officers and soldiers of the two countries, after a long period of absolute silence, suddenly burst out with louder cheers than before, a kind of victory in the war. A sense of joy, a sense of joy at the end of the war, emerged in my heart, rushed straight into my mind, and turned into hysterical shouts that resounded throughout the world.
"Win, win! Hahahaha."
This time it was not just the other officers and soldiers, but also Wang Ling, who also started shouting. Although he was a player, from the moment the Soul Empire was defeated, Wang Ling felt a rare sense of ecstasy in his heart. Even Wang Ling himself couldn't explain why he felt this way.
In fact, speaking in detail, although there were huge losses in the battle against the Soul Empire, there were not no gains. Among them, the biggest gain was naturally Wang Ling as a player. In the battle, Wang Ling switched arms many times, and even learned the special skills of the Mind Empire, mind control and mental shock wave, and even achieved the state of the Wild Beast King. The harvest was huge.
But the fly in the ointment is that until now, his level as a rocket pilot has not reached its peak.
Since returning from time travel, Wang Ling's rocket pilots have degraded to the one-star veteran level. However, in the subsequent battles, in order to pursue fast battles, Wang Ling did not focus on fighting, and now they are only at the five-star special forces level.
After all, Wang Ling is a player. What he has been pursuing from the beginning is to elevate various types of arms to their peak and feed them back to the real world. Now that the Soul Empire has perished and there is no one to gain experience with, there is no telling when the rocket pilots will reach their full level.
However, in the subsequent battles, Wang Ling's purpose had subtly changed to completely eliminate the Soul Empire. He even delayed the improvement of his military experience for this reason, and he still does not regret it until now.
"oh!"
"oh!"
"oh!"
Is this the case for Wang Ling, let alone others? The cheers were so loud that they almost resounded throughout the northern hemisphere and radiated towards the southern hemisphere. Even the generals and even the commanders of the two armies were cheering.
This kind of fun lasted for such a long time that it was unprecedented. Since the victory of the war, for three consecutive days, the troops of both armies were reveling in carnival, singing and singing every night, having bonfires and drinking banquets to celebrate this rare victory. .
After three days of partying, the troops from both armies lost interest and gradually calmed down.
Now, the Empire of Mind has been destroyed, and the fortresses built by the two armies during the joint operations are naturally useless now. The symbolic significance is even greater than the actual significance. As a result, the troops of the two armies began to withdraw from all war zones in unison. He withdrew his own troops and moved closer to the dark area where the headquarters was located. The two armies gradually broke off contact.
After the withdrawal is completed, there will be a grand celebration and title ceremony, where rewards will be given based on merit.
Within the coalition forces, a large number of generals, officers and soldiers were involved, and Wang Ling, as a hero-level unit, naturally also participated.
The venue of the celebration party was the headquarters of the coalition forces. On this day, the headquarters was almost crowded with people. Looking around, there were people everywhere. If you throw a piece of it and turn around, the one it hits is a school officer or even a general. .
After all, the headquarters area is limited and it is impossible for everyone to come to participate in the ceremony. Therefore, all major bases only sent personnel above school officers to gather together, which can be described as a gathering of heroes.
With so many people meeting, it was inevitable that there would be many old acquaintances. Before the ceremony started, everyone was greeting each other and the scene was very lively.
"Quiet!"
When the time for the ceremony was approaching, Coach Rich finally showed up and gave an order. Everyone immediately fell silent and quickly took their positions according to their military ranks. They were neatly in place in less than half a minute.
I thought that as the commander of the coalition forces, Coach Rich would be the host of this ceremony, but unexpectedly, after everyone had arranged their arrangements, Coach Rich's few simple words only emphasized the importance of the meeting. , and then blended into the team and stood at the front.
Just when the various officers and officers were puzzled, a tall old man walked out of the general command post. He was dressed in a neat military uniform and his chest was covered with medals and rank marks on his epaulettes. Everyone was frightened when they saw it. With a jump, this turned out to be a marshal!
The lowest military ranks within the coalition are soldiers, such as private and private. Next are non-commissioned officers, such as corporal, sergeant, staff sergeant, and chief sergeant. Further up are the lieutenants, which are divided into warrant officers, senior warrant officers, second lieutenants, lieutenants, captains, and captains (when I looked it up later, Wang Ling ignored the warrant officer stage in military ranks).
Further up are the military officers, such as major, lieutenant colonel, colonel, and senior colonel (I added this by mistake, and it has been used ever since).
Further up, there are officers, such as major generals, lieutenant generals, admirals, generals, commanders, and marshals!
As a commander, Richie was just a commander, but the person who came turned out to be a marshal with a higher military rank than him!
Naturally, above the rank of marshal, there is also a leader-level generalissimo. However, this kind of generalissimo is the highest leadership of the force. He is involved in all important decisions of the coalition forces and will not show up easily.
This investiture ceremony was actually presided over by a marshal, which shows how grand the ceremony was!
After a grand ceremony of military songs and flags, Coach Rich introduced him in public. It turned out that the marshal was named Luonan, and he came specifically for the investiture ceremony to inspire the high-level officers and soldiers within the coalition forces.
After the introduction, Marshal Luonan finally spoke: "This turmoil in the Soul Empire has always attracted the attention of the top leaders of the coalition forces. The strength shown by Yuri's troops once gave us a headache."
Marshal Luonan's voice was very loud, and the power of his words resounded in everyone's hearts, which was simply deafening. He briefly summarized the battle against the Soul Empire, pointed out his previous worries, and also described the turning point of the war. Finally, he called this victory an "unprecedented victory"!
After this summary, the main event finally came - the awarding ceremony.
A group of school officer guards from the headquarters brought plates of new epaulettes, corresponding to the award certificates. Marshal Luonan announced them one by one and handed them over to a designated person to wear.
"Major Xiang Yu, captain of the first team of the Hong Group at General Liu Chunhui's base. Due to his bravery and meritorious service in fighting against the Soul Empire, Xiang Yu was awarded the rank of Lieutenant Colonel by the decision of the coalition forces!"
"Major Lorsky, Captain of the Second Team of the Huang Group at General Liu Chunhui's Base. Due to his bravery and meritorious service in fighting against the Soul Empire, Lorsky was awarded the rank of Lieutenant Colonel by the decision of the coalition forces!"
"Major Sai Donghuang, captain of the third blue team at Funan General Base. Due to his bravery and meritorious service in fighting against the Mind Empire, Sai Donghuang was awarded the rank of lieutenant colonel by the decision of the coalition forces!"
