The Strongest Interstellar Commander

In the office of Marshal Sanders at the Lunar Headquarters of the Star Fleet, Lin Fan and the other four were standing in front of Sanders with serious faces.

"The Commander of the First Fleet of the Federal Star Fleet, Lieutenant General Lin Fan, has performed outstandingly in this attack on the Ox Empire, and he has made great achievements in battle. He is specially awarded the rank of Admiral of the Federation!"

After Sanders read out the entitlement order, he also sighed with emotion.

The 25-year-old general, this is also a record in the Federation. It can be said that he is the youngest general in the history of the Federation.

In Sanders' eyes, Lin Fan's future achievements will certainly far exceed Liang Xingchen.

Holding the new shoulder title, Sanders came to Lin Fan and changed it for him in person.

"Congratulations, Admiral Lin Fan!"

"Thank you, Marshal!"

"Don't thank me, it's because of your own strength, keep working hard!"

"Yes!"

Then, Liang Xue, Emma, ​​and Chris also received titles. After all, they were generals, so Sanders himself gave them the titles.

Among them, Chris became a lieutenant general, Liang Xue became a major general, and Emma finally entered the ranks of generals and became a brigadier general.

The brigadier general was also made a reserve general star of the Federation, but Lin Fan took this step directly back then, and once he entered the general star, he was a major general.

But this is a special case after all, and Emma still has to start her career as a brigadier general.

Sanders looked at the four of Lin Fan, nodded with satisfaction, and then picked up another appointment from the desk.

"Due to the reform of the Interstellar Fleet, a new legion level has been added. Admiral Lin Fan is now appointed as the legion commander of the First Legion of the Federal Interstellar Fleet. The formation is organized into 12 standard fleets with a total of 240,000 battleships. The headquarters is set up in Horton!"

"At the same time, Horton will become an important military town. The Federation will not immigrate ordinary people here. Everything in this star system will be handled by the commander of the First Legion of the Star Fleet, Admiral Lin Fan!"

"Finally, regarding the formation of the legion, the original First and Third Fleet of the Federation will be included in the First Legion and become the First and Second Fleet under the Legion. The First Fleet, as the guard fleet of the Legion Commander, is still led by Lin Fan. The commander of the Second Fleet will be Chris Rhodes, and the remaining ten fleets will be completed within ten years, and the commander candidates will be submitted by the First Army and approved by the Starfleet headquarters."

"The above is the latest appointment. Is there any problem?"

"Report, no!"

"Very well, the Third Fleet is already in Houghton. You will set off tomorrow and go to Houghton to meet with you. After that, you can start the construction of the legion."

"Yes, Marshal!"

"Lin Fan, wait a minute, I have something to tell you!"

Just as Lin Fan and the others were about to leave the office, Sanders spoke again.

After Liang Xue and the three looked at each other, they withdrew very wisely. They understood that Marshal Sanders had something important to explain to Lin Fan alone!

"Lin Fan, the task on your side is very heavy. It's not like Liang Xingchen's side. The Federation needs an external channel, understand?"

"Understood, don't worry, Marshal, give me five years, and I will take down the Kabat Empire!"

Lin Fan naturally understood what Sanders meant. In the current federal territory, there are two ways to the outside world, one of which is blocked by the Io Federation, and the other is blocked by the Kabat Empire.

If the federation wants to continue to develop, it must open one of the channels, otherwise even if it relies on the curvature engine to cross these two civilizations and lay a new territory, it will increase the difficulty of ruling because it is not connected to the mainland.

And the Io Federation is absolutely not allowed to fight, that is a key part of the future population increase of human beings, isn't it stupid to fight that?

Therefore, there is only the Kabat Empire to choose from. For Lin Fan, it will take three years to supplement the establishment to 5 fleets, and it will take another 2 years to destroy the Kabat Empire.

Time is enough.

"Well, before you are ready, the Federation will maintain the transaction with them. On the one hand, they will drain their last heritage, and on the other hand, reduce them to leave enough backhand for you!"

"clear!"

Ten minutes later, Lin Fan left Sanders' office, joined the other three, and set off back to Earth.

"Sorry, Chris! Originally, I wanted you to spend more time with your wife and daughter on Earth, but now it seems to be impossible, and I will be leaving for Houghton tomorrow!"

On the shuttle ship returning to Earth, Lin Fan said to Chris.

"What's the matter, Legion Commander, and Alice can move to Holden as a military member at that time!"

"That's okay, but you and Alice both went to Houghton, what about your daughter? After all, Houghton is a military town, but there is no school!"

You must know that Chris's daughter Ava is still young, so she can't take them to Houghton. There is a military town there, but there is no school for Ava to study.

"This is no problem. Ava has received the admission notice from the Interstellar Military Academy. She will be enrolled in two months. After she graduates, she will ask the commander to help her come to our army!"

Chris said a little embarrassedly, after all, this is definitely a back door.

It's not that Chris wants to take special care of his daughter, just that the family can have more opportunities to be together.

"Okay, I promise this! I will greet Dean Li Fulai, don't worry!"

"Thank you, Legion Commander!"

------

More than 20 days later, Lin Fan arrived at Horton with the First Fleet.

As mentioned before, Horton was once a major military industrial city of the Oaks Empire, with a life planet and a full 42 resource stars, and also has these three huge asteroid belts, each of which is in the asteroid belt of the solar system. Dozens of times the size, and the resources are more abundant.

The Oaks Empire has established a huge warship manufacturing base on Houghton, which consists of countless warship production lines. Now these bases are being transformed by a large number of industrial robots. It is expected that the transformation can be completed in half a year. The most important military-industrial base of the Federation.

In addition to the battleship manufacturing base group, the Federation has also established a huge space scientific research city in Holden, which is located next to the battleship manufacturing base group. Its main person is still Lin Fan's old acquaintance, the Federation's chief scientist Bai Zixuan.

Today's Bai Zixuan is no longer the same old age after using the genetic enhancement potion and the brain domain development potion.

The whole person looks like he is in his 40s. Compared with before, not only is his physical fitness much better, but his lifespan has increased by at least 200 years. It can be said that he is in high spirits. There is even a gossip that Bai Zixuan has recently changed his hair for the second spring, and is in the process of changing his hair. In a relationship with a female scientist.

Lin Fan definitely supports this matter. After all, Bai Zixuan never married a wife or had children in his life because of scientific research. Now that he has this heart, it is naturally a good thing!

In short, Holden is now in an era of great construction, and every planet and every void is engaged in construction.
