I am reciting the Classic of Mountains and Seas in the interstellar

Of course, ordinary people are different.

For ordinary people, a hundred years old is already rare.

The retirement age of the Space Marines is forty years old.

After the age of forty, they can retire.

Those who are still in the Space Marines at the age of fifty are basically from families in great difficulty, and they need to use their last life to earn a pension for their families to support their families...

In other words, the fifty-year-old Space Marines are cannon fodder among cannon fodder in all the Space Marine squads and squadrons.

Their proportion in each squadron is generally no more than one thousandth.

What about her?

Is it also one thousandth?

But if it is one thousandth, she should have one person here. Considering the statistical error, there are at most a few people, and theoretically no more than three people.

But now, there are ten people over fifty years old injured here!

This is a one percent ratio!

Why is it so much higher than the average level of the whole team?

Xia Chujian had to have a conspiracy theory.

After visiting the ten injured and fallen space marines, she returned to her captain's room and said to Qilu: "Qilu, check how many of the one thousand space marines under my command are over fifty years old."

This task is very simple.

Qilu spent almost no time to put the statistical data in front of Xia Chujian.

Xia Chujian looked at the data on the eyepiece display screen, his eyes darkened slightly.

"I have one hundred people over fifty years old..."

So the proportion of one thousandth of the entire column is ten percent here!

It is ten times higher than the one percent she had expected before!

Xia Chujian does not discriminate against these older space marines, but she is disgusted by the superior officers who deliberately sent these people to her.

It can be said that no squadron has so many space marines over fifty years old here!

Xia Chujian sneered and made up his mind to dig a pit for the other party.

Soon, she called a meeting of the entire squadron and said, "This time, ten of our comrades were injured."

"I've watched the video playback, and none of them were injured because of their mistakes, but purely because the medium Zergs were too powerful!"

"This time, there were 300 medium Zerg soldiers, and we clearly had a ratio of 3 to 1, but we still fought for an hour!"

"I don't approve of this efficiency!"

"At the same time, considering the average age, physical fitness and combat experience of our combatants, I decided to give special rewards to comrades over 50 in the squadron after each battle!"

"This reward is enough for all comrades to retire without worries when they reach the age, and go home to reunite with their families!"

Xia Chujian said this, clearly accusing the upper echelons of the military of being idle and owed a lot to the treatment of the lower-level space marines.

If you consider the specific situation of the lower-level space marines, you will not deduct their retirement benefits, so that they cannot retire until now.

Because after the Star Marines retire, whether from a physical condition or personal skills, few people can still engage in other professions, and basically they live on the retirement benefits of this one-time deal.

The family will no longer have a stable income.

And the retirement money is definitely not enough to cover the living expenses of the family and their own retirement expenses.

That's why so many Star Marines choose to serve beyond the age limit.

Xia Chujian has long been dissatisfied with this.

Almost all senior officers in the military are from noble families.

The few senior officers who are not from noble families are all high-level gene evolutionists.

These people have long achieved financial freedom, and their families naturally don't rely on that little retirement benefits to live.

Therefore, almost no one considers the various treatment issues of the Star Marines.

The only senior officer who once truly cared about the lower-level soldiers and officers was Huo Yushen.

But six years ago, he was collectively squeezed out by the military's senior management.

This time, Xia Chujian plans to do everything that Huo Yushen couldn't do.

She looked at the space marines under her command and said, "Now I'm going to reorganize the team."

"Space marines over fifty years old, step out!"

The older space marines looked at each other uneasily.

They didn't know what Xia Chujian meant by doing this.

But since the military order had been issued, they still walked out hesitantly.

Xia Chujian looked around and saw that there were only eighty-five people.

Ten of the one hundred space marines over fifty years old were injured and sent to the medical room.

There was a medical cabin built into the cruiser.

There should be ninety space marines over fifty years old here now, but only eighty-five were willing to stand up.

What did the remaining five people not want to stand up mean?

Xia Chujian narrowed her eyes.

She sympathized with these space marines who served over the age limit, but now they were at war, and she would not allow anyone to disobey her orders.

Xia Chujian had a cold face and typed five names on the virtual display screen, saying: "You five people disobeyed military orders, and I give you two choices."

"Retire immediately or be expelled."

What other options are there?

If you are expelled, you will have nothing.

If you retire immediately, you will still get retirement benefits.

These five people were very upset.

They were just confused for a moment.

Although Xia Chujian said that he would give them higher rewards, how could they get treatment for free?

They all thought that Xia Chujian asked them to step out of the line to be cannon fodder directly...

So they hesitated.

As a result, Xia Chujian kept his word and asked them to retire on the spot.

These people looked at each other and realized that they had violated a taboo.

This was the army, and Xia Chujian was their squadron leader.

Her words were military orders, and they were raised during combat.

They actually dared not to obey military orders...

Unfortunately, it was too late to regret now.

Xia Chujian said to the captain of the squad where these people were: "These are your subordinates. Prepare the retirement materials and report them. I will approve them immediately."

These five people are actually from the same squad.

The captain of the squad smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, Squadron Xia, I will prepare it immediately."

Xia Chujian said: "Our next combat target will be sent to you in ten minutes."

After that, she turned off the virtual display in front of her and began to prepare to handle the retirement procedures for the five people.

Not long after, the captain of the squad brought the five people to Xia Chujian's captain's room.

They stood in front of her respectfully, without the slightest fluke mentality.

Xia Chujian said: "I won't say anything else. I don't want to go into whether you dare not stand up because your family conditions are good or bad."

"Now, you can still live with this retirement fund."

"If you have any difficulties, you can go to the local Veterans Affairs Department to deal with it."

"Okay, we still have to fight, and we can't send you back for the time being."

"During this period, you will be under house arrest until the end of the battle."

"If you agree, sign here."

Xia Chujian pointed to the five standard retirement forms on the desk, all of which Qilu found and filled out for her.

The five people did not argue or beg for mercy. They walked forward silently and took a look at the form.

The retirement money on it was ten times that of the previous Star Marines!

The hearts of these people were pounding.

Looking at the form again, it was a standard retirement form used by the Beichen Empire Military Department. There was no problem signing it.

These people signed quickly as if they were worried that Xia Chujian would go back on his word.

Xia Chujian sent them another electronic form and asked them to sign electronically on their respective quantum optical brain watch carriers before the procedure was completed.

Then, Xia Chujian asked the team leader to send the five people to single rooms for house arrest.

Those rooms have their own bathrooms, which can solve personal problems.

As for food, everyone carries low-level nutrient solution when they go out and fight, so there is no problem.

After settling them down, this Star Eagle-class space cruiser has arrived at Xia Chujian's fourth target this time-South 91 District.

She began to give everyone combat orders.

"There are 400 medium-sized Zerg soldiers in South Zone 91, including 200 Red-Eyed Bees and 200 Black Mantises."

"Our combat formation this time is still divided into three groups."

"Direct combat group, 800 people."

"Mobile support group, 100 people."

"Logistics supply group, 85 people."

"The 85 people over 50 years old who were listed before will be assigned to the logistics supply group."

"The 800 people in the direct combat group will be divided into 40 combat teams, 20 people in each team."

"These 40 teams will directly fight against the 40 Zerg teams."

"We still have a numerical advantage, but not as big as before."

"Now this time, it's two to one."

"The two of us Space Marines, fighting against a medium-sized Zerg soldier. "

"Remember, in future battles, we will gradually transition to one Space Marine fighting against one medium-sized Zerg soldier."

"If you can't adapt to this combat environment, you can apply to be transferred from my squadron after you go back."

"I will give you the best evaluation so that you can transfer to the squadron you like."

"Don't worry, you can come and go freely here, and I won't make any of you ask for trouble."

Xia Chujian waved his hand after he finished speaking: "We have arrived at the destination, get ready for battle!"

Soon, a series of combat aircraft flew out of the belly of the Star Eagle-class space cruiser and headed for the mountain below.

Of course, these aircraft are now in stealth mode.

The Zerg do not use human electronic detection equipment for air defense, so they are not worried about being discovered in advance.

When the aircraft reaches a certain height, it stops in mid-air.

Then, teams of Space Marines wearing conventional mechas jumped down from the hatch of the aircraft.

It was as if a group of divine soldiers appeared out of thin air in the sky!

The iron-black mechas were not obvious in the dark night sky, so the Zerg below did not see the abnormality in the sky for the time being.

Xia Chujian was the last one to emerge from the cruiser, and followed slowly behind the conventional mecha space marines in front.

There will be new updates at 5:00 p.m.
