Girls und War

The so-called "the tail is too big to be cut off" refers to this situation.

Xia Shu and the others are very aware of their institutional advantages.

It is also very clear that with the further development of the special forces, the larger the size of their forces, the more obvious their advantages will be.

Therefore, if the Generals' Council wants to impose restrictions on the special forces, they will be the ones who suffer the greatest losses.

But this kind of thing is not something that these middle-level generals can have the final say.

We can only pray that the attitude of the generals in the Flower District is tough enough to withstand the pressure from the generals in other war zones.

When we talked about this, the admiral meeting was about to officially begin.

Soon, the screen in the lounge showed the images of the admirals entering.

At this time, a robot waiter entered their lounge and reminded them to prepare before entering.

So Xia Shu and the other two took out their speeches and began preparing for the defense.

973. The First Admiral's Conference

After a while, when the generals entered the venue, the host of the meeting gave a brief opening speech.

Then a series of topics to be discussed at today's meeting appeared on the big screen.

It covers a large number of controversial issues related to the three battlefields of cold, hot and space, as well as advisory issues regarding reserve forces.

Xia Shu and her team's special forces topic was placed in the middle, and there was still some time before they could go on stage.

So after completing the preparations before the defense, the girls sat there and began to watch the war of words between the generals.

Such opportunities are rare, because the discussion process of the admiral's meeting is kept completely confidential.

Xia Shu guessed that this was also to protect the generals' face.

Because in this kind of meeting, those young people who are not very old but have a lot of hot tempers might say something nasty.

If these meeting records were to be obtained by outside reporters, I wonder how all sectors of society would view these top military generals of Blue Planet.

The host of this year's conference is still the human fleet command lieutenant from the AI ​​Data Center.

As the host finished his opening remarks, the first topic about the cold weapon battlefield was brought to the table.

This topic was raised by Huaqu, so at this time, the only young general in Huaqu came to the stage and made his speech.

In terms of the proportion of people in each war zone of the imaginary battlefield, the female soldiers in the hot weapons battlefield are the largest.

The second is the cosmic battlefield, and the worst is the cold weapon battlefield.

Although the current gender ratio is not as unbalanced as imagined, there is no doubt that men generally have no interest in joining the army.

The reasons for this are difficult to explain. It could be a subtle imbalance in the treatment of male and female soldiers, or it could be due to the exclusion of men from the imaginary battlefield.

But from the perspective of Xia Shu, an old driver, there is often only one reason why young people are unwilling to join the army.

That is, there are no women in the army!

The truth is that simple.

At this moment, the young general of the flower district on the stage seemed to be severely excluded by a group of girls. Now, when he spoke, he seemed very nervous.

After he finished discussing the topic, other generals on the cold weapon battlefield began to discuss in groups of three or four.

And since there was only one general in Huaqu, he seemed very weak when he spoke.

The young female admirals next to him couldn't stand it anymore, so they started interrupting and commenting on the topic.

From Xia Shu's perspective, these generals who are good at using hot weapons are all outsiders when it comes to using cold weapons, right?

Doesn't it seem a bit disrespectful to interrupt the discussion like this?

But those young generals seemed to be bullied by girls all the time, and no one stood up to express their opposition.

So this issue was just passed over in a muddled manner under the pointing and criticizing of "outsiders".

I don’t know whether those cowardly generals will discuss the issue again after they return.

Alas, in this Generals' Council where women are more dominant than men, it is true that women are too strong and men are too weak.

But when Xia Shu thought about it, she felt that she was also a girl, so she felt that this kind of atmosphere was absolutely correct.

However, the situation at the meeting did not develop as Xia Shu had imagined.

Because in addition to the active-duty generals with a serious imbalance in the gender ratio in the venue, there were also a large number of reserve generals who were invited to attend the meeting.

These reserve generals are not comparable to noisy young people. Most of them are adults and have rich combat experience.

Years of conference experience have enabled them to develop extremely sophisticated speaking skills.

So with the guiding speeches of several adults, the meeting quickly got back on track.

A group of young generals also resumed their normal discussion of the topic.

And for a period of time afterwards, in the following topics, adults still have the responsibility of guiding the speeches.

Whenever an issue begins to devolve into a quarrel, the reserve generals will speak up to turn the tide.

However, they did not participate in the discussion of the issue. It seems that the decision-making power has been effectively handed over to the active boys and girls.

Soon, the topic of the cold weapon battlefield was discussed.

Next, it was time to discuss the topic of hot weapons battlefield.

At this time, Natsuki and the others were about to go on stage to give their speeches. So the robot waiter took Natsuki, Dragon, and Kamei to the speech preparation room to begin the final preparations.

There were also a few girls from other battle zones sitting in the preparation room, and they were probably going to go on stage to speak as well.

The military ranks of these girls are generally high, including major generals, lieutenant generals, and many senior sergeants and major sergeants.

Xia Shu and the other three officers seemed a bit out of place here.

But when the three of them came in, no one paid any attention to them. So the three of them retreated to a corner and simply became invisible.

Everyone was looking at their own manuscripts and preparing their speeches after going on stage.

As time passed, the previous topic was soon completed.

The next topic is special forces.

So Xia Shu and the other two, guided by the robot, walked through the door and arrived at the venue of the admiral's meeting.

-

The entire conference hall was packed with people, silent and deep.

The meeting place was unusually quiet with no one talking to each other.

The generals sitting in their seats were all silent, and it seemed that the entire space was suddenly filled with a tense feeling as if a storm was about to come.

This is because the next topic involves the most important future development in the hot weapons battlefield in the near future - the construction of special operations forces.

Therefore, every general in each war zone needs to be careful and cautious in what they say.

In this kind of atmosphere, the young men on the cold weapon battlefield naturally didn't dare to breathe.

What about the space battlefield? It is even more notoriously indifferent to the outside world.

For example, General Lan Ke in the audience was looking at his own holographic screen from beginning to end and never raised his head.

Thus, the only sounds left in the entire venue were the crisp footsteps of Xia Shu and the other two.

When the three of them came onto the stage, everyone's eyes were focused on them.

Although Xia Shu felt tremendous pressure, he still saluted the generals in the audience without changing his expression, along with the two people beside him.

The three of them stood with a major in the middle, a lieutenant colonel and a colonel on either side, clearly giving the major the upper hand.

Although the generals in the audience had some doubts about the positions of these three people, no one asked any questions.

So Xia Shu briefly reported to them the next internal reference topic.

Then, Doragon was asked to stand on the podium first and began to answer questions from the generals.

974. A perfect report

The speeches of Xia Shu and the other two at the parliament were carefully discussed beforehand.

Before they went on stage, they had read each other's internal reports.

Therefore, I have already had a rough mental preparation for the specific level of the three reports.

Among them, Doragon's report was the worst written.

Pretending to sleep, pretty standard.

As for Xia Shu's internal reference document, after being polished by Qingxian and Nya Nya, it has reached the peak level of a reference report.

Therefore, Natsuki's report had to be the last one. This was to prevent the generals in the meeting from raising their expectations after hearing Natsuki's report. As a result, after listening to Dragon's report, they vomited their breakfast.

At this moment, Doragon lived up to everyone's expectations and read a simple report on the training requirements of special forces haltingly and making many typos.

Fortunately, the generals present had a copy of the report in their hands, otherwise after Doragon finished speaking, the people in the audience would not even understand her main idea, which would have been funny.

After reading Doragon's report, the generals in various war zones showed obvious resistance in their hearts, although they did not say it out loud.

They all started to think, where did this troublemaker come from? He couldn't even read the report clearly?

Princess Zhao then winked at the Commander-in-Chief, implying, "Is this the excellent report you promised me? Did you ask her to come and ruin the event?"

The young commander's expression was a little embarrassed, and he didn't seem to expect that Dragon would end up like this even as a runner-up.

So she coughed lightly, interrupted Doragon's speech, and said to her, "You don't need to read the rest. We have already read it."

Seeing Doragon's bewildered expression, he said to the others in the meeting, "Then please ask whatever questions you have."

At this time, the generals in the audience all breathed a sigh of relief, and seemed very satisfied with the young commander's decision.

They opened Doragon's report and skimmed through it. Someone then asked her, "So, regarding the special forces training program, do you have any more progressive future plans? For example, by incorporating assessment results into job stratification, similar to those in frontline combat units? Or, perhaps, by giving trainees specific goals to achieve?"

Doragon was a little dumbfounded when he heard this question.

Then he stammered, "Well... well, it should be, no. Because the passing standard of the training camp only looks at the assessment results... so..."

Seeing that Dragon was about to mess up the defense, Xia Shu quickly stepped forward and said, "These issues regarding future development will be incorporated into the overall report later. I will explain them in detail later. I have some questions about the training camp recruitment process. Thank you."

The admiral who asked the question frowned when he heard Xia Shu's answer.

She was tired of hearing this kind of crappy report, so why should she continue to listen to it?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh slightly.

When Doragon saw Xia Shu coming to rescue her, she immediately responded with a grateful smile.

Xia Shu asked her to step back and answer the other admirals' questions himself.

Then several generals asked some questions related to the special operations training camp. Xia Shu answered their questions one by one based on his understanding of the special operations forces and the young commander's overall strategic thinking.

The questioning then ended temporarily.

Because this poor report written by Doragon is really not worth reading. Even if I want to ask questions, I feel like I can't grasp the key points.

So when the first report finally ended, Xia Shu gave the podium to Jiamei and asked her to give the second internal reference report on personnel management of special forces.

After pretending to be asleep and taking the stage, he opened his speech and spoke eloquently, quickly explaining the contents of his report in detail from the perspectives of internal and external political positions, organization and off-site camp management.

When the generals saw the report from the imposter and her solid oratory skills, they immediately thought: "This is a proper internal reference document! What kind of a report did that guy write? How dare he bring it up on stage?"

In addition, although the quality of the report by the fake sleeper could only be considered above average, because Doragon's previous poor report had already been used as a test, the admirals, whose psychological expectations had been lowered, immediately developed a favorable impression of the report by the fake sleeper.

In addition, he pretended to be asleep and deliberately left many loopholes in the report, waiting for the generals to point them out and ask questions.

So this guy who was pretending to be asleep immediately left a good impression on the generals.

No wonder she was the first to suggest that Doragon report first and she followed closely behind.

Xia Shu couldn't help but sigh when he saw it. "What a scheme! What a trick! You are indeed a fake sleeper!"

Soon, as the questions raised by the generals were answered one by one, Jiamei also completed her second report.

So Jiamei gave up his seat on the stage and Xia Shu gave the third summary report on the prospects.
