Chapter 159: Taking Office as the Legion Commander
The three stood on the rostrum, Carloka and Qu Xiang's chests were high and their bodies were straight, but no matter how hard they tried, they could not overshadow Shen Zheng.
Almost all the cameras were aimed at Shen Zheng, for no other reason than that he was too young and too legendary.
The straight officer uniform had no flaws; his resolute eyes revealed an extreme confidence; the white gloves and the shiny black leather shoes formed a strong contrast, making him look so energetic and delicate.
And the young and handsome face made everyone who saw it sigh.
Is this the young genius who stirred up the storms of the countries in the 12th Military Region and caused the entire military region to surge? [
Qu Xiang smiled bitterly in his heart, and wanted to whisper to Carloka beside him that we should just stop standing like this, anyway, no matter what, we can't be more popular than Shen Zheng. But facing so many people and so many cameras, he still chose to stand upright. Almost everyone in the military region is watching! This also includes his family, he doesn't want to embarrass himself at this time.
Ka Luoka felt himself sweating slightly, and he suddenly found that compared with the situation in front of him, it seemed that it was easier to fight against the powerful insect swarm in the insect cave.
"They are all the best among the insect controllers." Lu Jin said loudly, "The 12th Military Region is proud to have them. Here, please everyone join me in witnessing their growth. I believe that in the near future, there will even be insect melters who can be on par with me!"
As he said, he strode towards the few people, and the etiquette lady promptly brought the plate with epaulettes to him. He came to the oldest Qu Xiang and picked up a pair of epaulettes.
"Congratulations, and at the same time you should understand that you are not only carrying a position on your shoulders, but also a responsibility." Lu Jin said as he put the epaulettes on Qu Xiang.
"Yes!" Qu Xiang saluted with some excitement.
Then Lu Jin came to Carloka again, put on the epaulettes for him, and said: "You are very strong. I hope you can go further. Maybe you will have a chance to be the deputy commander in the future."
"Thank you, deputy commander!" Carloka seemed less excited, but his breathing became heavier, and his salute was a little stiff.
"What should I say to you?" Lu Jin finally stood in front of Shen Zheng, looked at the young and handsome face, and finally shook his head and slowly put on the epaulettes for him.
"No need to say, I understand everything." Shen Zheng smiled lightly, with a relaxed expression on his face.
This expression also made him look extremely charming in everyone's eyes. Whether it was Carloka or Qu Xiang, they were all suppressed by his momentum. People's eyes were focused on him, guessing what kind of big news this legendary military district corps commander would bring them in the future.
"Do you think my brother is handsome?" In the VIP seat, Shen Ying asked Chai Feifei in a low voice.
"Of course he is handsome." Before Chai Feifei could open her mouth, Fang He squinted his eyes and said.
The two girls looked at him together, but he was unaware. He just half-squinted his eyes and stared at Shen Zheng on the stage as if he was appreciating a piece of art that he admired very much.
The two girls covered their mouths and laughed secretly.
In the VIP seats, there were also Qu Xiang's family members, young and old, and children of seven or eight years old. They all covered their mouths excitedly and stared at Qu Xiang on the stage with tears in their eyes.
And because Carloka was alone, no one could shed tears for his success.
"Do you want to speak on behalf of the new officers?" Lu Jin asked in a low voice after putting on the epaulettes for Shen Zheng.
"Please forgive me!" Shen Zheng was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. "You can find whoever of the two is suitable." [
Lu Jin smiled and turned to Qu Xiang: "You are the oldest of the three. I believe you can say something suitable for this occasion. You can say a few words on behalf of the three of you."
"Me?" Qu Xiang was a little excited. Although he always believed that if there was a segment where new officers had to speak, it would be Shen Zheng who would represent the three of them, he still secretly practiced at home and prepared a few words. He didn't expect that he would actually use them now.
But this was all Shen Zheng's credit. He couldn't help but smile at Shen Zheng gratefully, and then whispered to Carloka: "How about you come?"
"I'm not good at speaking." Carloka shook his head.
"Then I'll do it reluctantly." Qu Xiang took advantage of the situation and took a step forward, then loudly said the words he had prepared, which were nothing more than obeying the leadership of the military region and winning glory for the military region.
But Qu Xiang's family was excited for a long time because of this.
Shen Zheng stood on the stage, feeling very uncomfortable. He finally waited until the end of the inauguration ceremony. He thought he could relax now, but he didn't expect a bunch of media to surround him, and a lot of microphones of different lengths were stretched in front of him, almost stuffing them directly into his mouth.
"As the youngest corps commander in the history of the 12th Military Region, what do you think?"
"I heard that you have only been a bug controller for less than two months, is that true?"
"What is the secret of your success?"
"I heard that you are also a master of modulation, is that true?"
Shen Zheng was overwhelmed, and hurriedly smiled while quickly retreating from the media's "siege". As a bug controller, it was a piece of cake for him to leave this group of mortals. Everyone only felt that something flashed in front of them, and Shen Zheng was gone.
The reporters couldn't help showing disappointed looks on their faces, and had to turn to interview Karoka and Qu Xiang. Karoka wasn't good at this kind of thing either. When he saw this, he immediately imitated Shen Zheng and ran away. But Qu Xiang didn't care so much and lived for a long time. When he finally had such a glorious time, of course he had to show off. To show off, he stood there and chatted endlessly with the reporters.
In the distant Longxing Kingdom, those who knew Shen Zheng stood excitedly in front of the TV. Seeing Shen Zheng "escape" from the circle of reporters, they could not calm down for a long time.
"Can you imagine that that little soldier now became the commander of the military region?" Feng Yu asked Liang Long with a smile in the Wolf Fang Corps.
"It is my lifelong honor to see him grow from a young mortal to a god-like strong man with my own eyes." Liang Long said excitedly while watching the TV.
In the capital of Longxing Kingdom, in Longxing Headquarters, Xun Qianjue and Lin Liang looked at each other and smiled.
"The strength of our Three Kingdoms Alliance is even stronger now." Xun Qianjue said slowly. "We will no longer be a small player in the Six Nations but will eventually become the dominant players."
"Thank you Shen Zheng." Lin Liang said with a smile.
Lang Lian and Guan Yanshu, the strong insect control experts in Wenlan and Qiwei, were also in front of the TV at this moment, secretly congratulating themselves on their original decision.
I'm so wise! They all thought so in unison.
In the auditorium of Wenlan College, all the teachers and students of the college watched the investiture ceremony. Chai Jingtian looked at Shen Zheng on the magic screen with a proud face, as if he was a child of his family. [
"Hey, isn't that my Feifei?" When the camera swept over the VIP table, Chai Jingtian saw Chai Feifei whispering to Shen Ying, and immediately pointed at the magic screen and shouted loudly. "This little stinky girl doesn't know how to be dignified after following Army Commander Shen. How dare she be so casual in front of the camera? It's so embarrassing."
Everyone in the college couldn't help but look at him, grinning and sweating on their foreheads.
Nonsense, dear dean, you are not embarrassed by your daughter. You are obviously showing off your daughter's relationship with Shen Zheng to us!
But thinking about it, there is still no one in the entire college who does not envy Chai Jingtian, and no one does not admire Chai Jingtian himself because of the relationship between Chai Jingtian and Shen Zheng.
After the investiture ceremony, the three new army commanders will enter their respective defense zones for the handover ceremony. Karoka and Qu Xiang went there in high spirits and ambition, while Reuther drove Shen Zheng's family all the way to the seventh defense zone.
The layout of the entire 12th Military Region is very much like a nine-petaled flower. In the center is the central area directly under the jurisdiction of the General Headquarters, and is surrounded by nine defense areas. Therefore, starting from the central area and going to any defense area, the distance is the same.
Only one vehicle was not enough to send the legion commander to his post. In front of and behind Reuther's car, there were a dozen military vehicles to clear the way and escort him all the way to the legion headquarters in the seventh defense zone.
Each legion in the military zone has ten formations, each consisting of 5,000 men. At this time, the ten formations of the seventh defense zone had already stood on the parade ground at the legion headquarters. When Shen Zheng's car arrived, all the soldiers immediately stood up straight and saluted the standard military salute.
The motorcade stopped in front of the military parade. Ruther accompanied Shen Zheng out of the car, motioned to Shen Ying and others to stay in the car, and then accompanied Shen Zheng all the way forward. Several officers came over and stood at attention and saluted after seeing Shen Zheng. Shen Zheng also saluted them with a military salute to show respect.
"The new regiment commander of this defense area is Shen Zheng." Reuther introduced to the officers, then pointed to an officer and said to Shen Zheng: "This is your adjutant, Nanfeng."
The officer immediately saluted Shen Zheng.
The officer named Nan Feng was about thirty years old. He had deep eyes and seemed to be a man of extraordinary wisdom. Shen Zheng had a good impression of him at first sight, so he nodded.
"Don't worry, these officers have been screened by Dalan and have absolutely nothing to do with Gu Qinghan." Ruth whispered to Shen Zheng, "You can rest assured when Dalan is doing things."
Shen Zheng nodded.
"Legion Commander, I'm glad to be your subordinate." Nan Feng looked at Shen Zheng with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
"Oh?" Shen Zheng smiled, "Why?"
"Everyone in our army has heard about your deeds." Nan Feng said with some excitement. "A peerless genius who single-handedly killed veteran insect controllers, even more so in the military region..." He paused for a moment. , smiled sheepishly.
"I'm sorry, I forgot. The fact must be that only Gu Qinghan died at your hands in the duel."
Shen Zheng looked at him and couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, hurry up and complete the military parade and my inauguration ceremony." He looked at the tens of thousands of elite soldiers under the stage and said slowly.
