1284 Colonel and the National Military Medal!

Wang Teng finished reporting quickly.

Actually, the main base probably had intel about the battle process, but it wouldnt be as detailed as Wang Tengs personal accounts.

His briefing was necessary to see if discrepancies occurred.

The generals praised him to the skies for that battle, especially for the usage of the lightning array. They won with minimum losses. It was the perfect outcome.

Major Wang Teng, you did well, General Cameron said in the end.

A battle is not childs play. One needs to be smart and not just use brute force. That is the stupidest method.

You considered the surroundings, the local weather and various elements of the battlefield and used them to your advantage. This is the wisdom and quality a leader should have.

Qi Yuanju and the other generals nodded, agreeing with the statement.

Berkeley and Haus felt ashamed, to a point they wanted to find a place to hide.

They used the simplest and stupidest method to fight. They had already lost.

They were a bit unconvinced at the start. Wang Teng considered his teams safety but casualties were common in war. They felt he had used the array because he wanted to rely on an external force. That wasnt the real power of the Tiger Strike Force.

But, as things stood, they were the ones who didnt do well.

Both had learned about the wisdom and quality of a leader the moment they entered the military. Unfortunately, they got immersed in the glory of their forces and forgot about medular things like these.

They were too result-driven!

That was their mentality when they went to battle.

Their young colleague had unwittingly taught them a lesson.

Wang Teng was stunned when everyone praised him.

Am I that outstanding?

The wisdom and quality of a leader? Whats that?

Do I have that?

Why didnt I know of this?

General Camerons voice pulled everyones attention over. Based on the numerous military contributions Major Wang Teng has made, the top brass have decided...

He was going to be awarded based on his merits!

Berkeley and Haus sat up straight. They gave Wang Teng envious looks.

Wang Teng stared at General Cameron in surprise.

This was a little sudden!

Major Wang Teng will be promoted to colonel! General Cameron smiled.

Colonel!

Berkeley and Haus looked bewildered, unable to hide their jealousy anymore. It was plain to see on their faces.

They thought that Wang Teng would at most become a lieutenant colonel, but he was directly promoted to colonel, jumping two ranks.

Mind you, they had been in the military for many years, having made numerous contributions before they managed to climb the ranks.

And yet, Wang Teng was directly promoted from major to colonel.

Honestly, they found it unfair.

Wang Teng was too young and he had barely joined the military. He didnt have much experience, yet he already was at the same level as them. Anyone would find it unfair.

Wang Teng was astounded.

Im a colonel already?!

I didnt do anything to achieve this, did I?

General Qi Yuanju, General Ukeri, and the other generals wore smiling faces, knowing about this decision beforehand. They even approved this personally.

It was a fact that the fellow was indeed too young. However, they felt that they needed to keep such a talent in their team, and special people required special treatment. They didnt have to stick to the rules all the time.

Letting go of this talent would be a huge loss.

They hoped that Wang Teng could keep bringing glory to Defense Planet No. 29.

The latter had caught the eyes of the bigwigs through this mission and gained some honor for the whole planetary operation.

Before this they couldnt raise their heads in front of the generals from other defense planets after the loss of three frontlines.

Many people wondered if this result was caused by neglect.

Now, all the wagging mouths stopped because of Wang Tengs exceptional performance.

Major Wang Teng, wait, I should call you Colonel Wang Teng now. General Cameron smiled.

Thank you. Wang Teng snapped back and hurried to formally salute the generals.

He wasnt stupid. He guessed that these officials were the ones backing his promotion.

Otherwise, such a rise in ranks would have never happened, based on age and experience.

No matter what their motive was, he accepted the favor.

General Qi Yuanju and the others nodded in silence. Wang Tengs ability and temperament were both praise worthy, not becoming haughty because of his merits, nor did he look down on others because he gained power. He was able to remain calm and humble after the good news. Not many people could do this.

Arrogance wouldnt allow one to go far.

General Cameron said with a smile, Colonel Wang Teng, continue to work hard. I can apply so you can receive the National Military Medal if you make a few more achievements like this. Your noble status might rise too.

Wang Teng was surprised and elated. He didnt know what the National Military Medal was, but he knew how hard it was to rise in nobility. Cao Hongtu spent half of his life trying to inherit the barons position but he snatched it from him.

Now, General Cameron was telling him that he could climb higher if he made more military contributions.

Wasnt that a great bonus?

Achieving military merits was as easy as eating and drinking for him.

General Cameron is a good man!

The National Military Medal! Round Ball suddenly exclaimed in Wang Tengs mind.

Whats the National Military Medal? Wang Teng couldnt help but ask.

Round Ball took a deep breath and explained, It is the highest military condecoration of honor. Only those who have achieved outstanding military exploits are worthy of it.

The latter couldnt imagine why General Cameron felt that Wang Teng had the chance to get this award.

It was worth noting that many heaven stage martial warriors had been unable to get it, and Wang Teng was just a celestial stage martial warrior.

Still, he was a veritable monster. His achievements were no less than those of a heaven stage martial warrior. He had even surpassed most of them.

Seen through that lens, Wang Teng did have an opportunity to get the coveted medal.

Furthermore, General Cameron wouldnt speak of this for no reason. He had certainly heard something.

The military top brass were probably paying special attention to the boy.

Round Ball felt troubled for a moment. This fellow is extraordinary wherever he goes!
