Aldrich could naturally read the expressions of his subordinates who had followed him for many years.

He took the hot coffee that the orderly handed over, after taking a sip, he said, “The effects of the mecha created by the casting camp are very outstanding. After wearing it, our soldiers have made great improvements in their defense. Coupled with our outstanding firepower, there is no reason for the Atlanteans to win!”

Following that, he looked at Huang Lin and said with a smile, “All of this was thanks to our Chief of Staff’s prompt decision to immediately approve the forging camp’s plan and win us production time! Otherwise, the current good situation would not have happened!”

Hearing the regiment commander’s words, all the military officers and soldiers in the command center looked at Huang Lin with grateful gazes.

Because his decision had given the regiment a head start and had even saved the lives of countless soldiers.

However, Huang Lin, who had received the praise, did not seem very happy. His expression was still as calm as ever. He only said indifferently, “No, this is not my credit. It was thought up by a recruit. The glory belongs to him!”

Aldrich was clear about this point. He knew that this plan was thought up by a recruit called Rayen, but he did not care about this recruit at all.

In his mind, the key was to be the superior to judge whether the suggestion from the subordinate was feasible.

Obviously, Huang Lin’s prompt decision made him very appreciative, and the other party’s statement that he was not greedy for credit made him even more gratified and satisfied.

He stood up and said, “No need to be modest. This decisive battle strategy was also thought up by you. I believe that this war will end with our great victory in ten days! After that, I will report your credit to the Empire!”

“If you gain the recognition of his majesty, you might even be able to establish your own Corps!”

The moment these words were said, many officers cast envious gazes at Huang Lin.

Because establishing one’s own corps was the supreme honor for a soldier!

It was the ultimate dream of every soldier!

“I don’t have that intention…” Huang Lin revealed his two dimples, then he said, “Vulture is my beloved place. I never intend to leave! “If I really get the favor of his Majesty the Emperor, I hope that this reward can be more practical. It’s a good idea to increase the budget of our corps. Our air force is really too little.”

This time, his reply made Aldrich finally laugh out loud, the corps commander patted Huang Lin’s shoulder in satisfaction and said, “Hahaha…you wish. Even if His Majesty really gave the edict, I would still go against it. After all, I don’t believe that there is a better Chief of Staff than you in this world!

“For Vulture, we can’t bear to let you go!”

The originally tense atmosphere finally eased up, and smiles appeared on the faces of the surrounding officers.

Because they knew that their regiment commander had never made a mistake in his judgment of the direction of the war. If he said he could win this time, then he would definitely win.

“Alright! I’m going to the airport to pick up that supervisor. He’s an important guest sent by his majesty. Our fighter jets are counting on him!” Speaking of this…Aldrich took a big sip of coffee, when he reached the door, he ordered, “When I’m not here, the entire regiment must listen to the Chief of Staff’s orders! Everyone keep an eye on the enemy. Once the death camp arrives, we must have the opportunity to annihilate the enemy!”

“Yes, sir!”

The soldiers cheered in unison and saluted.

Only the deputy regiment commander stared at Huang Lin with a bitter gaze, as though he wanted to eat him up.

Aldrich’s decision was undoubtedly a punishment for the number two figure of the formation, Bowman.

One had to know that this veteran who had been in the army for more than 30 years was the second commander of the Vulture formation.

But now, the highest decision-making power of the corps was actually in the hands of Chief of Staff Huang Lin.

In Bowman’s eyes, this was already an insult!

But he did not dare to object, because he knew too well what kind of person his commanding officer was during his 10 years of following.

If anyone dared to disobey Aldrich’s military orders, the only outcome waiting for that person would be a bullet.

Now, he could only glare fiercely at Huang Lin and growl, “I’ll get even with you in the future…”

After saying this, he stormed out of the command post with his own guards.

After seeing this fierce guy leave, the other officers also came to the conference table and said.

“Humph…If you don’t have the ability, you won’t allow him to contribute to the corps? This is naked jealousy!”

“If we follow his tactics and split up the main force to face the enemy, who knows how many of our brothers will die!”

“Last time, it was because of his decision that caused two-thirds of the most elite death squads to die. Now, he actually still has no regrets!”

“The Corps Leader and Chief of Staff’s idea of gathering the main force to fight the enemy is the correct one!”

“That’s right since we have the advantage in equipment, it means that we have gained the initiative! Of course, we have to take the opportunity to wipe out the enemy in one fell swoop!”

“The regiment commander is right, he’s just old, it’s better to retire early.”

Everyone’s attitude was more or less speaking up for Huang Lin, but this Chief of Staff did not have any intention of appreciating their kindness.

On the contrary, he swept his gaze across everyone with a serious expression and said, “Enough! Pay attention to your identities! The other party is the commander! Don’t say such things again in the future!”

Hearing Huang Lin’s words, everyone shut their mouths.

After warning them, Huang Lin ordered, “Return to your posts. Report to me immediately if the enemy moves, 24 hours!”

“Yes!”

Following that, the communication soldiers in the command center also handed over the military reports from various battlefields to Huang Lin.

Just as Huang Lin was checking them one by one, a communication soldier trotted over, with a hurried expression, he said, “Report! The battalion commander of the Casting Battalion, Li Qiang, has just contacted us. His recruit squad has been lost, and they haven’t been able to find it. Now, they hope that we can send out drones to help in the search!”

“Recruit squad?” Huang Lin frowned slightly. Obviously, he was very surprised by this situation.

This was because the Casting Battalion’s role in the battlefield was at most to carry out logistical work such as transporting ammunition. There was no reason for them to leave the fourth battalion that was previously stationed there. Moreover, the recruit squad did not have much combat strength. In order to survive… There was also no reason for them to leave. What was going on?

He thought about it and thought that there were only two reasons, either they were all eliminated by the Atlanteans, or they became deserters!

Thinking of this, he ordered, “Approved! Immediately send out drones to search for this recruit squad, especially to find Rayen as soon as possible!”

To him, Rayen was a name that left a deep impression.

Right now, the main reason why the division had the advantage on the battlefield was because of the mecha plan that he had thought of.

Although he had not seen it before, it was definitely a decent talent.

Previously, he had also thought of not letting this kid go onto the battlefield, but the series of battles that followed made him forget about this matter.

Just as Huang Lin was blaming himself for his carelessness, a few of the officers beside him who were involved in the work seemed to have noticed the worry of their superior and said separately.

“Sir, I believe that the recruit squad has not been eliminated, nor have they become deserters, because their squad leader is crazy Steven.”

“That’s right, with that big beard around, it will be very difficult for anything to happen to Rayen. I believe we will be able to find them very soon!”

“Don’t worry, sir. Steven came from the death camp. His strength can guarantee the lives of important soldiers!”

Hearing this, Huang Lin’s expression relaxed slightly. “How could I have forgotten about this?” He patted his head, and a smile appeared on his face. He was no longer worried about this matter.

The source of his confidence was Rayen’s squad leader, Staff Sergeant Steven.

This guy was quite famous in the corps. As a member of the dare-to-die camp, he had a lot of combat experience.

He had once chased and killed more than a dozen Atlantean soldiers single-handedly!

Such a crazy move had also earned him the nickname ‘Madman’!

There was another great reason why such an outstanding soldier would appear in the foundry camp now, and it was because of the Deputy Corps Leader Bowman.

In a simple military operation last year, the hot-tempered Steven had a quarrel with Bowman in front of the dining car because of the food problem.

This matter was not a big one, and Steven apologized to Bowman afterward.

However, the Deputy Corps Leader was still unwilling to let go of this outstanding soldier who had performed meritorious deeds in battle. He thought that dealing with this action was a challenge to his authority, so he transferred him to the forging camp, which had very few combat missions, as punishment.

But now, it seemed that this matter was very good.

Because Rayen was under the command of this guy with rich combat experience, it meant a certain degree of safety.

After realizing this, everyone stopped worrying and immediately got busy with other things.

What they did not know was that Rayen was not with his squad leader at all.

Instead, he was dealing with an unexpected enemy in the dense forest — Mozzie!
