Chapter 2016: Internship Task
Now that the 'internship tasks' have been arranged, there is naturally no reason to delay.
The three princesses and princes went to their respective teams to report for duty.
Zhao Bai'er looked at the place she was going to.
Acting Captain of the 3rd Fleet of the 503rd Army Corps, 45th Legion Fleet Group of the JF-17 Thunder.
This is a newly established legion fleet group, and the corps fleets below it have only been established for less than three months.
The acting captain was appointed because the original captain had taken leave and needed to return to the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire.
Originally, at this point, the deputy corps commander should have been assigned to the role of acting corps fleet commander.
But who could have imagined that a temporary commander would suddenly be parachuted in?
This was completely unexpected by the high-ranking officers of the 3rd Fleet of the 503rd Army Corps.
Because in the Dragon Legion Empire, there are very few arrangements for such parachuted positions.
This unusual arrangement led everyone to speculate about the identity of the person who had been parachuted in.
Furthermore, some of the deputy corps commanders harbored resentment.
This was a rare opportunity for them to act as corps commanders.
During this period of agency, there are several missions that will not only allow them to accumulate combat experience, but also improve their performance.
If any newly established corps needs a commander in the future, they will naturally give priority to those who have achieved results.
The sudden appearance of someone in the space naturally caused them to lose their opportunity.
This will naturally cause dissatisfaction among some people.
"Who on earth is this person? How could they possibly parachute into our army?"
"Could it be that some important person arranged for him to be here?"
I originally thought there wouldn't be such infiltration within our JF-17 fleet, but it still happened.
"Don't say that. What if this is some kind of special arrangement?"
Let's see how it goes first.
Everyone waited with curiosity for the arrival of the acting regimental commander.
Soon, the acting corps commander arrived at the flagship of this corps fleet by shuttle.
Two deputy corps commanders are here to greet us.
There was also a deputy corps commander on the bridge who was in charge of commanding the corps fleet.
"Sister Sun seems quite dissatisfied with this arrangement."
"Of course I'm dissatisfied."
Originally, our commander left, and based on ability and seniority, Sister Sun was supposed to temporarily take over the position of commander.
What Sister Sun is lacking now is this kind of opportunity. I heard that the higher-ups are already selecting the commander of the new corps fleet.
How many empty positions are left in the remaining corps and fleets?
After this wave of military expansion, it's anyone's guess when the next round of expansion will begin.
Therefore, Sister Sun had been looking forward to this opportunity.
Her contemporaries had all risen to the positions of fleet commander, and some even served as deputy commanders of legions.
"Won't we start arguing later?"
"Well... who knows? You know Sister Sun's temper."
"Let's keep an eye on things and keep a close eye on things."
At this moment, the shuttle slowly descended.
The shuttle's hatch opened.
A young face appeared before everyone.
The two deputy commanders of the corps were dumbfounded when they saw the young face.
They looked at each other in bewilderment.
That's way too young.
He probably isn't even eighteen years old yet.
If Sister Sun found out that such a young person had replaced her in her position, she would explode.
The two seemed to already see what would happen on the bridge later.
"Hello, I am Zhao Xiaobai, the acting commander of the Third Corps of the 503rd Army Corps," Zhao Bai'er introduced herself.
The two deputy commanders stood up straight.
"Liu Hong, deputy commander of the 3rd Corps of the 503rd Army Corps."
"Su Miaomiao, deputy commander of the 3rd Corps of the 503rd Army Corps".
The two vice commanders also introduced themselves.
Zhao Bai'er had naturally read the information about these two people.
"There's also Sun Yue, who should be on duty on the bridge."
"Let's go to the bridge now," Zhao Bai'er said.
"Go to the bridge now?"
Why don't you visit other places first?
"Or should I go to the dormitory arranged for you, rest a bit and wash up?" Deputy Commander Liu Hong stepped forward and said with a somewhat strange expression.
"No need, I'm here to temporarily assume the position of commander, not for a vacation."
"I should understand the current situation of our corps as quickly as possible," Zhao Bai'er said calmly.
She had actually seen through what the two people were thinking.
She knew what the two were worried about.
The information about the three deputy commanders of the corps is very detailed.
Deputy Commander Sun Yue was probably very dissatisfied with himself, the acting commander who had been parachuted in.
But she will be here for the next month.
This was unavoidable; she had to manage the relationships with the high-ranking officers within the fleet.
"Alright." Liu Hong and Su Miaomiao exchanged a glance; what they had to face eventually had to be faced.
They could only take this young girl to the bridge.
The atmosphere on the bridge of the flagship of the 3rd Corps of the 503rd Army Corps was extremely solemn.
The bridge was quiet; everyone avoided speaking and handled matters with extreme caution.
At this moment, if they made even the slightest mistake, they could be met with a barrage of angry rebukes from Deputy Commander Sun Yue.
They all knew why Deputy Commander Sun Yue was in such a bad mood today.
So now nobody dares to mess with them.
At this moment, the light gate on the bridge opened.
Two vice commanders appeared, followed by a very young girl.
This made many people who saw it widen their eyes in surprise.
They all had the same thought in their minds: Could this be the acting commander of the corps appointed by the higher-ups?
So young, who would believe he didn't get in through connections?
Isn't Sister Sun going to explode in a minute?
Deputy Commander Sun Yue naturally saw the three people who walked into the bridge.
When they saw the young girl behind Liu Hong and Su Miaomiao.
She glared at her, then quickly walked over.
Liu Hong was startled when she saw this.
This hot-tempered guy, is he about to cause trouble now?
Because of her fiery temper, she had arguments and even arranged fights with her comrades when she held important positions on several previous starships.
This is why one of the evaluations of her was that she had low emotional control.
Because of this, she was a step behind her orphaned classmates.
Others have risen to the rank of deputy commander in a legion fleet group, while she's still only a deputy commander in a corps.
Just when everyone was bracing for a tense standoff.
Sun Yue actually stood up straight in front of Zhao Bai'er and gave a military salute.
"Sun Yue, Deputy Commander of the Third Corps of the 503rd Army Corps, pays respects to Your Highness the Crown Princess!"
Her Royal Highness the Princess?
Everyone stared in disbelief at the scene and was stunned when they heard the name.
In the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire, there is only one person who can be called the Grand Princess.
"You know me?" Zhao Bai'er looked at Sun Yue with some surprise.
"know."
"Have we met before?"
"No."
"Then how do you know I am the eldest princess?"
It really is the eldest princess!
Everyone was stunned.
Immediately, a chorus of greetings rang out from the bridge.
"Greetings, Your Highness the Crown Princess!"
Liu Hong and Su Miaomiao were both dumbfounded. What on earth was going on?
The First Princess is serving as the acting commander of their army?
Is there something wrong with how this is being done?
Sun Yue looked at Zhao Bai'er seriously: "Intuition!"
"Intuition?" Zhao Bai'er asked in surprise.
“I used to serve on His Majesty’s bridge and have seen what His Majesty looks like.”
She also served under Marshal Charlotte, serving on her bridge for over a year.
When I saw you just now, I was reminded of His Majesty and Charlotte.
Although you rarely appear in public, especially in recent years no related video or audio materials have been released.
However, based on your physical characteristics and age...
And, at your age, to be directly assigned to a corps in the JF-17 Dragon Legion fleet as a commander.
Aside from Her Highness the First Princess, I really can't think of any other possibility.
Hearing Sun Yue's methodical analysis.
Zhao Bai'er was quite amazed by Sun Yue; it seemed she wasn't as dull as described in the information.
"alright.
My identity is kept secret.
I think you'll soon be contacted by people from the security department, who will ask you to sign a relevant confidentiality agreement.
Don't be nervous.
As long as you don't reveal my presence here, nothing will happen.
I'm not here to steal anyone's job.
I'm only here for a month of training.
A month from now, your commander will return, and you will still be you.
I hope we can get through this month successfully.
And remember one more thing.
The one here is not some princess.
"Only Zhao Xiaobai, acting commander of the 3rd Corps of the 503rd Army Corps. You can call me Xiaobai in private, but in formal situations, please call me Commander Zhao, or Captain Zhao."
After speaking, Zhao Bai'er saluted everyone.
Everyone returned the greeting.
The next step was naturally to help Zhao Bai'er familiarize herself with the various matters of the 3rd Corps of the 503rd Army.
Although Zhao Bai'er had already read the relevant information before, information is still information.
Talking to the person involved can provide more detailed information about things that are not available in the documents.
For example, a certain starship actually has some minor problems, such as its speed and rate of fire.
Furthermore, the current condition of a certain small fleet is not very good, and it is not suitable to be assigned to the main force.
Deputy Commander Sun Yue followed behind Zhao Bai'er and explained everything in detail.
Even Liu Hong and Su Miaomiao, who were standing next to her, were not expected to do so.
None of them had ever seen Sun Yue lick like that.
Even if their corps commander were here, Sun Yue wouldn't act like this.
But on second thought, it seems to make sense.
The woman before me is the eldest princess.
Furthermore, the eldest princess has now been directly assigned to serve as acting commander of the Black Wall defense fleet.
This shows that His Majesty values this eldest princess very much.
Even if they are not the heir in the future, they will still hold a pivotal position.
And these people were right in front of the eldest princess at that moment.
As the saying goes, those who are near the water get the moon first.
This is a rare opportunity for them to shine.
For the next month, they could be considered the princess's study companions.
If you perform well, you'll leave a mark on the eldest princess's mind.
Even if they don't achieve instant success in the future, they will at least reap considerable benefits.
If one could also follow this eldest princess, that would be something no army commander could compare to.
Sun Yue is trying to seize this opportunity.
After realizing this, Liu Hong and Su Miaomiao immediately became sycophants.
Surrounding Zhao Bai'er, they bombarded her with all their questions.
He even wished he could dig out his own heart and show it to Zhao Bai'er.
With such enthusiasm and candor, Zhao Bai'er basically grasped all the information about the Third Corps of the 503rd Army in less than half a day.
Next, we just need to wait for the latest task assignments.
The first task arrived quickly.
That is the rotation of guards along the Black Great Wall defense line.
"Reporting to Commander Zhao, we will be rotating shifts in six hours."
The troop rotation location is at Black Wall Defense Line X03, where they will need to be stationed for three days.
"The shift change needs to be completed within fifteen minutes," Deputy Commander Sun Yue reported to Zhao Bai'er in a measured tone.
During this period of communication, the three of them not only showed great respect for Zhao Bai'er's identity.
They dared not underestimate her professional abilities in the slightest.
Because during the conversation, Zhao Bai'er displayed exactly the qualities of a professional commander.
If it weren't for her teenage appearance.
They would all think he was a commander with extensive combat experience.
Therefore, they now admire Zhao Bai'er not only because of her status, but also truly regard her as the commander of their army.
"Okay, I understand."
There are still six hours left.
Allow half an hour.
That's five and a half hours.
Pass it on.
First, within the next three months, check the status of all starships and report any damage that cannot be repaired during this period.
If any combat resources have not been replenished, replenish them as soon as possible; if replenishment is not possible, report it as well.
In the final moments, our Third Army Corps entered combat readiness an hour and a half ahead of schedule.
"clear!"
Looking at the bridge now in operation, Zhao Bai'er was also very excited.
This was her first time about to step onto a real battlefield, not in those combat simulators.
This is a completely different feeling.
Her heart was still pounding.
She was nervous, but she liked the feeling.
This is where she belongs.
battlefield!
Zhao Bai'er clenched her fist.
She wants to be someone who makes her father and mother proud.
At this moment, Zhao Bai'er was unaware that Charlotte had been watching everything she was doing.
"Since you're already here, aren't you going to say hello to your daughter?" Zhao Chen looked at Charlotte in front of him, then at the video screen opposite him.
Charlotte shook her head and said, "She's still in her current position, and she has her own work to handle."
