Novel Full Chapter 1139: Five-star Marshal!
Charlotte slowly walked off the stage amidst applause and returned to her seat.
Next, another marshal will be announced.
But when Lilith opened her mouth, she found that her voice did not come out.
Her expression changed drastically.
If the equipment malfunctions at this time.
That's a complete joke.
But a male voice rang out at that moment.
"I hereby confer upon Lilith, the Supreme Secretary of the Dragon Empire, the rank of Five-Star Marshal," Zhao Chen's voice rang out.
Applause rang out again.
Although this honor and title were somewhat unexpected.
However, Lilith is a special case within the Dragon Legion... or rather, within the Dragon Empire now.
If Charlotte is the woman standing in front of Zhao Chen, then Lilith is the woman standing behind Zhao Chen.
Without Charlotte, Zhao Chen had no fists.
Without Lilith, Zhao Chen would lose his brain.
Lilith is fully deserving of this rank.
However, no interstellar power has ever granted this military rank to civilian officials.
Most of them were other kinds of rewards.
However, given that the Xiaolong Empire originated from a military force, all of this seems quite reasonable.
After a brief moment of surprise, Lilith walked up to Zhao Chen.
Her gaze fell upon the mocking man before her.
She moved her lips, and although he couldn't hear a sound, Zhao Chen understood her lip movements.
"You didn't even tell me."
Zhao Chen didn't say anything, but instead smiled as he pinned the five-star marshal's badge on Lilith.
If someone observes closely.
You'll find that the badges of the two five-star marshals are completely different.
The stars are all the same stars.
However, the background texture of the badge is different.
Charlotte's emblem features a sword and shield.
However, the background of Lilith's five-star marshal badge is a book.
With this, the appointment of high-ranking military officers within the Dragon Empire came to an end.
The remaining officer appointments will be carried out in batches, without Zhao Chen personally conferring ranks.
However, some honorary officers will be awarded ranks.
"Qin Xiaolei, Saint Cana, Blanche, Angelia, Wells."
"Please come up on stage." Lilith's voice returned to normal at this moment, and she called out the names of five people.
Qin Xiaolei and Saint Cana stood up; everyone knew who these two were.
The Queen of the Starry Kingdom and the Holy Radiance Kingdom.
As for Blanche, the outside world may know little about her, but the Warhammer Starfleet Federation Kingdoms are very familiar with her.
Although Charlotte is the nominal leader of Warhammer, the real administrator is Blanche.
This time, Zhao Chen decided to directly bestow some honors upon Blanche as a reward for her silent dedication.
Angelia and Wells are respectively the King of Holy Angels and the King of War Angels.
The five of them stood together in front of Zhao Chen.
These five individuals were also awarded the rank of honorary marshal, which was a form of recognition of their status, but it did not have much practical effect.
When Zhao Chen walked up to Blanche.
She said softly, "Actually, it's completely unnecessary."
"Charlotte asked me to thank you; it was you who managed the Warhammer Star Federation Kingdom well."
Actually, she was originally planning to formally announce her resignation as leader of the Warhammer Starfleet Federation, and I agreed.
What you've done over the past few years has proven that you are fully capable of this position.
However, it is possible that there are still many factions within the Warhammer Star Federation Kingdom that are unwilling to comply.
So we'll give you this status for now, and wait until the right time.
"You can truly manage the Warhammer Interstellar Federation Kingdom, just like Qin Xiaolei and Saint Cana." Zhao Chen said softly as he pinned the Honorary Marshal badge on Blanche.
Blanche didn't say anything more, but Zhao Chen noticed that her body was trembling slightly.
Perhaps it's because of the touching feeling of finally being recognized for her quiet efforts over the past few years.
Soon, the conferment of the ranks to these five honorary marshals was also completed.
After that, Zhao Chen basically didn't need to get involved anymore.
The next ranks to be awarded are brigadier general, major general, lieutenant general, and general.
The two who conferred the rank upon them were Charlotte and Lilith, both five-star marshals.
The two were awarded ranks, one as a military officer and the other as a civilian official.
Like those who weren't mentioned before, but who also served as the original commander of the JF-17 Dragon Legion.
Xue Xiaoxiao, Wei Shishi, Qingman, Ye Xiaotong, Pei Shengnan, Zhao Ruyue, Leona, Midier...
Waiting for the legion commanders.
He also received a reward.
They are mostly three-star generals.
They all serve as deputy commanders of their respective fleet groups, making them potential reserve commanders for the future JF-17 fleet groups.
Looking at her three-star general rank, Xue Xiaoxiao sat down and pouted as she said to Su Lan next to her, "Sister Su Lan."
You tell me why I proposed to His Majesty the Emperor to establish an elite fleet composed entirely of interstellar battleships.
Why does His Majesty disagree?
Just imagine, all you can see are giant cannons!
This is annoying!
Looking at her junior who loved starships and giant cannons, Su Lan said helplessly, "It's not appropriate to list starships as a separate elite fleet."
In terms of mobility, Admiral Akame's Blizzard Ace Fleet is more than capable.
In terms of direct offensive capability, the Reverse Scale Ace Fleet, personally led by General Charlotte, is centered around starships and complemented by other starship types, making it even more effective.
At least for now, your idea is unrealistic.
Xue Xiaoxiao pouted and didn't say anything.
But I've already started thinking about something.
Rumors suggest that the Pluto is nearing completion of its refit.
The Hades was originally a massive warship with enormous cannons, so if I could become the captain of the T6 Rakshasa Hades, it would be an excellent choice.
Hehehe
The entire conferment ceremony ended quickly.
Next came the banquet, and Zhao Chen, Charlotte, and Lilith went to an empty room.
"Now, our military system reform can be considered complete." Zhao Chen looked at the brand-new list in front of him.
Those honorary military ranks are excluded.
There are two five-star marshals, seven four-star marshals, twenty-five three-star generals, ninety-seven two-star lieutenant generals, three hundred and one one-star major generals, and more than one thousand brigadier generals.
This includes not only military personnel.
In Zhao Chenxin's system, even some auxiliary positions are awarded military ranks, but for security reasons, these ranks are not publicly conferred.
For example, the three chief engineers were actually awarded the rank of three-star general.
They do not have the authority to command and deploy the fleet, but they enjoy the benefits and perks of this rank.
At this moment, Chief Engineer Anne was overjoyed; in her eyes, that three-star general badge was a money tree.
It represents her wealth and glory in the Dragon Empire.
"Hahaha, hahaha..." Chief Engineer Annie laughed heartily, "Now we're set for life!"
