Chapter 445: Chapter 327: Top Secret Plan (Five-in-One)_6

Even more so for his newly established Thirteenth Legion, which was still filled with fresh recruits.

Su Ming stared quietly at the purple-haired girl, his intuition telling him there was definitely something wrong with the Legion Commander’s battle plan.

He suspected the Legion Commander wasn’t telling the whole truth. This couldn’t be her real battle plan, or perhaps there were other hidden reasons and arrangements.

At this moment, the purple-haired girl stood up and spoke very seriously.

"Standard combat methods are like moths to a flame, completely ineffective. Now, we can only resort to desperate strategies. I have great confidence in this battle plan. Don’t you have confidence, or are you afraid?"

Upon hearing the purple-haired girl’s words, everyone responded with solemn assurance.

"We have confidence!"

"Good, I’m giving you one month. I don’t care what methods you use, but you must increase the combat effectiveness of the soldiers within a month. A month later, I will check the results, and by that time I want to see an elite force!"

The purple-haired girl said to the crowd.

"Yes!"

Hearing this, everyone responded with a solemn expression.

"Hm, any objections? If not, the meeting is adjourned."

The purple-haired girl spoke with a cold tone.

None of the officers present said another word, simply standing upright.

It was then Su Ming suddenly spoke up.

"I have an objection!"

Those present were astonished by Su Ming’s words, their faces showing disbelief. This guy actually dared to object?

Shu’en and Hejassi both seemed tense, not expecting Su Ming to be so bold.

The purple-haired girl looked at Su Ming and asked calmly.

"Speak!"

"Legion Commander, I request to transfer some people under my command!"

Su Ming directly addressed the purple-haired girl.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, he planned to transfer Rhein and others under his command.

"I object. This goes against the founding principle of the Thirteenth Legion. The Federation established the Thirteenth Legion for integration and unity. Transferring people to your command goes against the founding intention!"

Vickers Major General stood up and spoke.

"That’s right, isn’t this causing chaos?"

Many officers present echoed in agreement.

"I think in extraordinary times we must take extraordinary measures and should not cling to such rules. What we need now is combat power, to win this war. Transferring familiar people under your command can raise combat effectiveness in the shortest time! Sometimes, details and flexibility are crucial factors in determining victory or defeat."

Su Ming spoke not only to Vickers Major General but also for the purple-haired girl to hear.

"This...."

Vickers Major General was at a loss for a rebuttal.

At this point, the purple-haired girl spoke up.

"Okay, I agree to your request."

"Legion Commander, if so, we also want to transfer people!"

Seeing the purple-haired girl agreeing, one officer after another stood up and said.

All the officers present had several acquaintances they wanted to transfer.

"No problem, as long as it enhances combat power, I will satisfy all of you."

"Yes!"

"Dismissed. As for the transfer orders, I will issue them to all of you, provided the other party is willing to follow you."

After saying this, the purple-haired girl went straight to the exit.

Admiral Ferion and two others promptly followed the purple-haired girl and left.

The remaining officers in the hall breathed a sigh of relief and started to converse in low tones.

At this moment, Shu’en looked at Su Ming and asked with a grave voice.

"How many people do you want to transfer? What’s their level?"

"Don’t just transfer any half-baked people here. This decision of yours will definitely lead to a lot of people being siphoned away from our team."

Hejassi was also a bit concerned and reminded.

"I want to transfer classmates. We were all taught by the same teacher. Although their strength isn’t as strong as mine, each of them is no less formidable than those squadron leaders, maybe even stronger!"

Su Ming’s words didn’t contain a hint of exaggeration.

If he were to pilot a Second Generation Mecha now and take on Rhein, Ankaga, and others, he likely would expend a great deal of effort.

These guys were improving daily because they worked harder than most. During their free time, they almost always trained according to the methods left by Teacher Mia.

Strictly speaking, Rhein’s rank wasn’t high enough to qualify her to lead a squadron of 500 people, but she was still exceptionally promoted, and the reason was her strength.

"If that’s the case, then bring them over quick!"

Upon hearing Su Ming’s words, Shu’en said without hesitation.

"Exactly!"

Hejassi agreed wholeheartedly, and by Su Ming’s account, this transfer would be hugely beneficial.

"No problem, I’ll handle this."

"Great!"

"I’m heading out now."

Su Ming then walked towards the hall exit.

...

Outside the castle.

Su Ming walked on the road without immediately transferring people.

This matter wasn’t urgent; once the orders were issued, there certainly wouldn’t be any problem.

The pressing issue was to take care of his household matters. Keeping a hidden danger meant he couldn’t even sleep at night.

He immediately made his way toward the commercial street.

In just a short while, Su Ming arrived at a shop on the commercial street that sold various devices.

"Officer, what would you like to purchase?"

A man with a small mustache greeted him warmly.

"Do you sell surveillance cameras?"

Su Ming asked directly.

"Yes, but I need to take down your name and phone number to file and report it to the military base."

"Fine, no problem."

"We have all models here; do you want a concealed type or a regular one?"

The store owner led Su Ming into the shop, pointing to various surveillance cameras on the counter.

"Just a regular one, but it must be clear."

"This one, 1000 Federation Coins!"

The store owner picked up a surveillance camera the size of a fist and passed it to Su Ming.

"Hmm!"

Su Ming took out his wallet, handed over a banknote to the store owner, registered his information, and left with the camera.

He then headed to a fruit store and spent ten thousand Federation Coins on a small bunch of grapes.

After making his purchases, Su Ming immediately went home.

Shortly after, Su Ming returned to his house where he washed the grapes and placed them on a plate on the table.

He then installed the surveillance camera, aiming it at the bunch of grapes.

After completing these tasks, Su Ming let out a slight breath.

He wanted to see what was stealing his grapes; now, he only had to quietly wait for the thief to take the bait.

Su Ming then left the house, lightly leaving the door ajar, and departed.
