It Is Not Easy To Be A Man After Travelling To The Future 1066 Promote!

Ling Lan smiled as she stared intently at the dumbfounded chief. Then, she walked up to the entrance of the cafeteria and pushed open the cafeteria door.

The chief hurriedly followed behind her after seeing her taking the initiative. The moment he saw what was behind the cafeteria doors, a huge mess was revealed in front of his eyes. Everyone was fighting furiously with seemingly no regard for their location or status in this department.

The chief now really had the urge to vomit out mouthfuls of blood to ease the frustration in his heart. He just told this big fish that his soldiers were all obedient soldiers who wouldn't create any trouble but in the next second, they were having a gang fight right in front. He felt so embarra.s.sed that he wanted to run away and hide in a hole for a few days, but he knew he couldn't do so as he still needed to send these down on their luck soldiers to their true home.

He was about to shout to ask everyone to stop fighting, but a military club suddenly flew towards him. He wasn't prepared for this sudden attack so the club knocked on his head.

Immediately as the club hit the chief's head, the chief instantly turned stiff and fell to the ground. As a civil officer, he stood no chance against a rogue club.

Ling Lan raised her eyebrows in surprise. She didn't expect the chief to get the wind knocked out of him so easily. However, this had nothing to do with her so she just calmly watched as the chief fell on the ground.

She had to admit that the unruly and arrogant soldiers that got banished here were all quite powerful in their own right. However, the people from Evil Wind came from the gra.s.s-roots. They fought all the way to their current positions so they had more experience with real battles compared to those soldiers who came from the military academies. Thus, when they moved together, they managed to maintain a huge advantage over those unruly soldiers with their unity.

But, after fighting for such a long time, those unruly soldiers weren't in a dire state too. They would be able to continue resisting furiously for a long time. If not one stopped them, Ling Lan knew that the Evil Wind would still win the fight. However, it would come at a price of being heavily injured.

"Their physical skills are not bad." Ling Lan saw the six people who were the most active in the fight. She had a good evaluation of their physical skills level.

However, what made her the happiest was the presence of Evil Wind.

She was shocked when she saw these familiar people as she entered the cafeteria. In the next second, she quickly understood that her father was the one behind them being here. Chief He didn't ask her to come and take the normal soldiers. In actuality, there were real treasures here. He wanted her to take these treasures.

Ling Lan was touched. Her father had arranged everything for her from the start. He left the best of the best for her.

Of course, Ling Lan only felt touched for a second as she regained her composure instantly.

"Hmph!"

A cold 'hmph' was heard from the people on both sides of the fight.

Most of the soldiers weren't affected by the sound. But, the people from Evil Wind shuddered when they heard it. They felt even their legs shivering.

'Oh my G.o.d, why does it sound like the noise Regiment Commander Ling makes when we don't complete our training?'

"I will only give you three minutes to end this fight!" A cold voice reverberated through the entire cafeteria.

d.a.m.n it! It's really their devil regiment commander!

Everyone in Evil Wind, including Yan Three, felt their hairs standing on ends. Their eyes turned bloodshot as they charged towards their opponents without hesitation.

If they didn't complete the mission a.s.signed by their regiment commander, they would be dead.

The people from Evil Wind didn't want to die. Hence, their opponents had to die.

"Ah! You bite me!" In order to complete their mission, the people from Evil Wind used all kinds of weapons. Well, teeth were weapons too.

"Are you crazy!?" Those unruly soldiers saw how unreasonable and despicable the people from Evil Wind were and felt scared.

The six most powerful mecha operators in the prep department had already taken notice of Ling Lan. Captain Qiu was a tough person. He forced himself to take a blow from Yan Three and used the force from the blow to fly back to attack Ling Lan viciously.

He had noticed this person a long time ago. He was the one who made the people from Evil Wind turn crazy and was also the one who made them lose the fight.

However, he didn't want to admit defeat so easily. He was sent to the unused prep department because he didn't like to bow down to people who did not deserve his respect. Obviously, he was a proud person. Even in this kind of situation, he didn't want to admit defeat.

The only way he could change the situation was to take this person down.

Captain Qiu's hand was almost on Ling Lan's throat. Ling Lan seemed stunned by the sudden attack so she didn't move at all. These actions made Captain Qiu think that Ling Lan must be a newbie that had just entered the military.

Ling Lan had a mask on her face but the vitality she exuded proved that she was a young person. In his hurry to defeat Ling Lan, Captain Qiu didn't notice the difference in Ling Lan's military uniform which could be seen faintly under her cloak.

The elated Captain Qiu saw Yan Three standing motionless on the ground from the corner of his eye. So what if he was a colonel? He also had to admit defeat to him.

Huh? Why wasn't Yan Three anxious at all. What did that look in his eyes mean?

Before Captain Qiu could find an answer, he felt a force slamming into his chest and an excruciating pain quickly spread through his entire body as he flew back.

He vomited a mouthful of blood as he flew back into the air. Captain Qiu looked at the expressionless young officer in confusion. He didn't know what had just happened to him.

Captain Qiu's attention was all on Yan Three so he didn't notice the white flash of light when his hands were about to touch Ling Lan's throat.

Boom! Captain Qiu slammed onto a table forcefully, shattering the entire table into pieces. Captain Qiu rolled on the ground and slid for a few meters. He toppled many tables along his way before he was able to stop sliding back. This showed how much force was behind the attack.

The moment Captain Qiu stopped sliding, he vomited another mouthful of blood as struggled to get up. He failed many times. He kept falling down again and again but he didn't give up. In the end, he stood up wobbly with his two legs straight.

Was he going to admit defeat because of such a small injury like this? No way! The pride in him forced him to stand up again.

The other unruly soldiers were flabbergasted when they saw their Captain Qiu got injured heavily. Captain Qiu was the strongest among them. Soon, the entire cafeteria turned silent. Everyone stopped fighting as they looked at the young officer by the door in shock.

When everyone looked towards the door, they noticed that the chief was lying there with a silly smile on his face.

Strange. Wasn't he the chief of the unused prep department? Why was he unconscious?

Could it be… everyone let out a gasp. Did that young officer knock him unconscious? Who was he? How dare to sneak into the unused prep department of the 23rd division and injure the chief in front of so many people?

Yan Three was the only one filled with excitement when he saw the familiar figure. Their Regiment Commander Ling finally came to fetch them.

When he first came to the unused prep department, he was clueless about why they were sent here. However, after staying here for a month, he started to feel that something was amiss with their a.s.signments.

Yan Three thought of many possibilities but he never felt that the 23rd division abandoned them. The general of the 23rd Division was General Ling Xiao and there was nothing bad to say about General Ling Xiao's character. Plus, they had helped Regiment Commander Ling with the battle on Planet Haijiao and gained many merits. Just based on this point, General Ling Xiao wouldn't forsake them.

Why were they sent here then? Yan Three remembered that Regiment Commander Ling still hadn't been given his merit. Although Regiment Commander Ling was removed from his position as the regiment commander of 250 Ace Mecha Clan, Yan Three believed that this powerful man would come back to the military one day.

Regiment Commander Ling didn't get his merits yet so General Ling Xiao placed them here for the time being? Yan Three linked the things that happened recently. He felt excited when he found out the reason behind their a.s.signments here. As long as he was able to follow Regiment Commander Ling again, he was even willing to stay here for a few more years.

However, this was just his guess. He might be wrong. That was why he didn't tell his team members about this. After five months of waiting, most of the members of Evil Wind thought that they had been given up on.

Now, the wait was over!

"Who are you?" Captain Qiu forced himself to stand up straight. He wanted to know who could injure him.

Yan Three regained his sense after hearing what Captain Qiu said. He stood at attention and shouted, "Salute!"

All the members of Evil Wind stood at attention and shouted with all their might, "Regiment commander!"

They were frustrated and angry after waiting for five months but the moment they saw Ling Lan, all their negative emotions disappeared. Everything they didn't understand in the past came to them now.

They had to wait for five months so that they would be able to return to their Regiment Commander Ling. The wait was torturous but it was a blessing in disguise. Their voices were filled with hope and happiness when they saluted Ling Lan.

Regiment commander? Captain Qiu was astounded. The person whom he thought was a newbie was actually a regiment commander?

Ling Lan scanned the haggard-looking members of Evil Wind. They just had a fight so they didn't look in the best of shape, but she could feel their happiness from their voices. Her presence gave them hope.

Ling Lan was surprised. On Planet Haijiao, she used the Evil Wind Mecha Team as a deterrent in Base 013 so that she could have a trustworthy base. The people from Evil Wind suffered much under her because of that. She never expected these fearless mecha operators to recognize her and want to continue following her.

Ling Lan raised her right hand after she felt the trust and sincerity from the members of the Evil Wind Mecha Team and she saluted them back.

This action caused her cloak draped around her body to move aside. The epaulette shown on her military uniform made everyone dumbfounded.

"Major general! He's a major general! Who is he?" Those people who didn't know Ling Lan were shocked. It was obvious that Ling Lan was still very young but she had achieved so much.

Even the people from Evil Wind got surprised that Ling Lan had become a major general. However, when they recalled what happened during the battle on Planet Haijiao, they felt that it was reasonable. Even their leader, Yan Three, who was in charge of protecting the base managed to jump two ranks and become a colonel. As the person who commanded the battle and protected the only surviving base of the Federation on Planet Haijiao, as the person who caused the defeat of Hailiya, as the person who turned the tides around when all hopes were lost, Ling Lan was worthy of her rank.

"It's time to come back," Ling Lan disregarded everyone's astonishment and said calmly.

"Yes, regiment commander!" The people from Evil Wind, including Yan Three, had tears in their eyes. They were moved. They were no longer homeless children.

"I will only give you 30 minutes to pack your things and gather here," Ling Lan continued.

"Yes, regiment commander!" All the people from Evil Wind shouted loudly with their backs even straighter.

The people from Evil Wind were going to leave the unused prep department. Those unruly soldiers who just fought with them looked at the people from Evil Wind with envy and jealousy in their eyes. There was also a hint of despair and sadness in their eyes.

The people from Evil Wind quickly left the cafeteria. Because they were in a hurry, some of them stepped on the chief of the unused prep department who was lying on the ground.

Finally, the chief of the unused prep department woke up from the pain. Unfortunately, the people that had stepped on him had already left.

The chief of the unused prep department felt his entire body hurting all around. He picked himself up in pain. He saw that the entire cafeteria had turned quiet so he shouted instantly, "Who asked you to fight, huh? Also, who threw that club just now?"

He remembered that he was knocked unconscious by a club.

Everyone then noticed the lonely club lying on the ground not far away from their chief.

One of the guards in the crowd saw the familiar club and shrunk back into the crowd. He hoped that the people in front were able to block him from the chief's view as he noticed that the military club on the ground looked a lot like his.

The chief saw no one stepping out to admit his crime and got indignant. d.a.m.n it, he finally managed to bring in a big fish and was about to recommend him some soldiers. However, before he could do anything, these people destroyed this opportunity. Just as he was about to scold the soldiers to vent his anger, he thought of something. He turned around quickly and noticed Ling Lan who was standing at the side.

'Oh my G.o.d, the big fish is still here!' The chief was elated. His anger died down immediately. He quickly smiled and said, "Regiment Commander Ling, these fellows are a little impulsive and like to fight but they're soldiers after all. Soldiers like to exchange blows with each other. It's their way of communicating. They were just being friendly with one another just now. They'll get closer after fighting a few rounds."

The chief wiped the sweat on his forehead and tried his best to promote his soldiers. His mind worked furiously as he tried to cover up their crimes.

"So, it's not a bad thing that they like to fight. Plus, this proves that the soldiers here are strong. They're not weak and useless. They will be able to be used the moment you bring them over. You won't need to groom them… I mean, train them."

The chief quickly changed his words when he saw Ling Lan's death glare.

"They looked unruly but they are really obedient. Look, they stayed quiet after I scolded them. They have a good personality." The chief felt fortunate that those unruly fellows gave him some face and didn't refute him. If not, he wouldn't know how to continue anymore.

The chief didn't know that those unruly fellows weren't giving him face. They were just afraid of this powerful and secretive Major General Ling.

The chief was afraid that Ling Lan didn't want people from his department so he quickly added on, "Fighting is wrong so I'll educate them for you. I won't let them make such a low-level mistake anymore. Please don't worry. If you choose these soldiers, they won't disappoint you."

Ling Lan was touched by the chief's care towards the soldiers. She knew that he was trying his best to help these disobedient soldiers to have a way out of this h.e.l.l-hole.
