Chapter 1368: Whole Life (First Update)

As for why the colors of the energy beams emitted by this gun were different twice, these space marines quickly figured out the reason.

Because in different atmospheric environments, the colors of flames are different.

The atmospheric environments of various asteroids are very different, and the colors of flames are closely related to the atmospheric medium.

So on different asteroids, the colors of gun flames can be completely different.

They still know these superficial knowledge related to weapons.

But what they didn't expect was that what Xia Chujian's sniper rifle sprayed out was not flames at all, but plasma energy beams!

So their "brain supplement" was not valid at all.

Xia Chujian certainly wouldn't remind them, let alone explain.

She was relieved after she successfully "destroyed" her Destroyer No. 3 plasma sniper in front of everyone.

Because she didn't want to draw anyone's attention to her Destroyer No. 3 sniper that had once ejected golden purple energy beams!

Or even if it would eventually be noticed, it would be delayed as long as possible!

If she is targeted now, she has no power to resist...

But the longer the time, the higher she can climb, and the more troops she will have!

At that time, whoever wants to covet her things should first ask her army whether they agree or not!

…

Taking people back to the asteroid belt where they are stationed, Xia Chujian sent each team to the asteroid where they are stationed one by one.

But the sacrificed and injured people are still left on the Star Eagle Class A-type space cruiser.

This cruiser also stopped in the star field above the 120th area west of Shaofu Star.

She parked such a large battleship here, and the starry mothership of the Fifth Interstellar Fleet did not show any reaction.

What does this mean?

It means that the other party is just sitting there doing nothing and did not realize that such a large battleship that does not belong to them has entered their starry sky!

Or, as Huo Yushen said, the radar of the space mothership can't cover such a long range...

No matter what the reason is, the consequences caused by it can only be borne by the space marines on the front line!

Xia Chujian took a deep breath and restrained the sneer in her heart.

She didn't plan to go down to the asteroid below.

This is her space cruiser, her first space cruiser, she has to make this matter a reality.

Thinking of this, Xia Chujian pulled out a virtual display screen in the captain's room, used her quantum optical brain watch carrier, connected to the entire Fifth Interstellar Fleet, and started to work.

Xia Chujian first circled Qiu Shenxing, the acting captain of the Fifth Interstellar Fleet, and then circled several deputy captains of the entire Fifth Interstellar Fleet, and finally the captain's secretariat, and sent a few messages.

[144th Squadron Captain Space Marine Xia Chujian]: Xia Chujian, the captain of the 144th Squadron of the Fourth Column of the Fifth Interstellar Fleet Space Marines, reported: Successfully completed the task promised to the captain!

[144 Squadron Captain Space Marine Xia Chujian]: 144 Squadron, with 1,000 men, recaptured five asteroids occupied by the Zerg, namely South 67, South 71, South 81, South 91 and South 101.

[144 Squadron Captain Space Marine Xia Chujian]: We sacrificed three Space Marines and injured 107 Space Marines.

[144 Squadron Captain Space Marine Xia Chujian]: We completely wiped out 1,500 medium-sized Zergs and captured a Star Eagle-class A-type Space Cruiser.

[144 Squadron Captain Space Marine Xia Chujian]: Report completed!

Five short battle videos and five pictures showing the results of the battle were also attached.

As soon as these messages were sent, the entire group was in an uproar.

This group was composed of all members of the Fifth Interstellar Fleet, whether in combat order or civilian positions, from top to bottom, they were all in this group.

At first, everyone thought Xia Chujian was bragging...

When they clicked on the videos and pictures, they were all stunned and couldn't help but start to use the "prostrating and worshipping" emoticon package in the group.

Soon, like a screen-sweeping, the news of Xia Chujian's report on the results of the battle was pushed to the ground without a trace.

Xia Chujian was not in a hurry.

She had already made these messages into pictures.

After everyone had read all kinds of messages expressing admiration, she started to post pictures again.

Finally, she asked: "Captain, how do you count this military merit?"

"And how do you count the underestimated part of my previous military merit?"

The last time Xia Chujian won a battle, the senior officers of the Fifth Interstellar Fleet deliberately downplayed his military merit.

Of course, everyone knew who was in charge of this.

And last time, it was Xia Chujian's first merit.

A girl who is just 19 years old, not a genetic evolver, but just an ordinary space marine, will be looked down upon by some people no matter how great her achievements are.

In addition, in the military of the Beichen Empire, the military merits of the nobles have always been the most generous.

It is as difficult as ascending to heaven for ordinary people to get military merits.

Also, the last time was when Article 21 was just abolished, and the space marines could be counted as military merits for the first time, but they couldn't give you a big one right away, right?

So even if many people knew that her military merits were suppressed last time, only the lower-level officers and soldiers were dissatisfied and unworthy of her.

But only a few people in the upper level expressed dissatisfaction.

With most of the higher-ups keeping silent, her military achievements were suppressed.

In fact, Xia Chujian is not without a backstage.

If she wanted to make trouble last time, whether it was Huo Yushen, Quan Yuxun, or even Zong Ruoning and Su Buyan, they could all speak for her.

But she endured it last time and didn't make a fuss.

Because she didn't understand these "hidden rules", and she didn't want to get it right in one step.

Let's just suppress the military achievements for the first time. There will always be a time to settle the accounts.

This was the second time, and her military exploits were even more outstanding than the first time.

She wanted to see how these people above her would suppress her military achievements this time!

Moreover, she even directly singled out the first time she was suppressed for military merit, and asked to make up for the last time she was suppressed for military merit.

As soon as she made this request, the lower-level officers and soldiers who had previously defended her against injustice all stood up to speak for her one by one.

"That's right! Last time, I completely suppressed the military achievements of Squadron Xia!"

"They wiped out so many medium-sized Zerg, and only gave them to a second lieutenant in the end!"

"One of our majors, who was born as a viscount, only sent supplies to the front line, but he was immediately promoted from second lieutenant to major!"

"Haha! If you think about it this way, those people above can't even sleep! Are you going to help Squadron Xia, or are you going to stumble Squadron Xia?"

"That's right! You don't slap people in the face. You just tore off their face like this. Why don't they turn their anger on Captain Xia?!"

"Hahahaha! Fortunately, these turtles can't take the military glory of our Star Marines now!"

"If Article 21 had not been abolished, our Xia Squadron would probably still be just ordinary soldiers, but a certain officer with a noble background has now been promoted to the rank of general, right?!"

"Do you even need to tell me?! This kind of military merit, even if only one-tenth of the share, will fall on the nobles, starting as a major! To be fair, he will be a colonel! If you are lucky, it is possible to be promoted to the rank of general!"

"Pfft hahaha! A Star Marine, he wants to be promoted to general level at the first thought! It's really funny... Hahahahaha!"

"Why are you laughing? The family's chickens and dogs have ascended to heaven and are just having fun here! Let me ask you, if Squadron Xia is from a noble family, is it possible to have this rank?"

When this person asked, everyone stopped talking.

Everyone knows that if Xia Chujian is really from a noble family, this opportunity to be promoted like a rocket is really possible!

Then the middle and high-level officers in the Fifth Star Fleet also came out to congratulate.

They didn't come out right away because they wanted to first confirm the authenticity of Xia Chujian's videos and pictures.

You can't be like ordinary soldiers. No matter what you say, good or bad, there will be no consequences.

They must bear a certain responsibility for what they say in public.

This was confirmed by the intelligence analysts and machine intelligence of the Fifth Star Fleet. Those battle videos and pictures were all true, and they were at least half believed.

The previous batch of middle- and high-level officers from the main war faction who advocated being tough on the Zerg all appeared in the group one after another and were full of praise for Xia Chujian.

[Colonel Chen Rongnan]: Squadron Xia is so awesome! We have sent people to South District 67, 71, 81, 91 and 101 to verify.

[Colonel Chen Rongnan]: If it is true, you are retaking the astrological territory for the empire, and your military merit will definitely be a top reward!

Chen Rongnan is the executive deputy captain of the Fifth Star Fleet and the officer with the highest authority on the main battle faction.

Even though the acting captain is still half a rank higher than him, the standing deputy captain, in terms of actual power, in terms of military rank, he and the acting captain Qiu Shenju are actually on the same level.

Therefore, Chen Rongnan’s words still hold great weight.

Chen Rongnan was also angry.

The last time Xia Chu saw military success, Qiu Shenju gathered a group of high-level officers to veto his proposal.

He wanted Xia Chujian to be directly promoted to major.

In fact, in his opinion, the major had belittled Xia Chujian's military achievements.

After all, the record of annihilating four thousand medium-sized Zerg in one go was one of the few military achievements in the entire Beichen Empire's military.

If there is a real competition, perhaps only Qiu Zijun of the Fourth Star Fleet, who was ordered to replace the then deputy commander of operations and recapture one-third of the occupied asteroids and planets, can compete.

Qiu Zijun's military rank was directly promoted from second lieutenant to major.

Because the executive deputy captain in charge of combat at that time was suddenly attacked by the Zerg and was seriously injured and entered the medical cabin.

It was Qiu Zijun who led the executive deputy captain's combat team, re-formulated the combat plan, took control of several Infinity-class starry battleships, and led the millions of troops of the Fourth Star Fleet to fight the Zerg to the death. This was the result of the victory.

There will be a second update at five past twelve noon
