I kidnapped the timeline

Daybreak 403 years.

Military Department.

Ji He stood in front of Star City's territory map, scanning Star City's territory, and finally focused on Star City's frontline supply area.

Now he has stood at the top of power in Star City.

And his first step in reforming Star City will start with the Military Department.

In the past, Star City's main combat power was divided into two parts.

One part is the various battle groups in the frontline supply area, responsible for exploring and dispersing the frontline fields, and transporting resources to Star City.

The other part is the military headquarters stationed in Star City, which is responsible for maintaining order in the city and protecting the safety of the city. If a field suddenly comes, the military headquarters will also be the city's strongest defense.

This pattern persisted for hundreds of years.

But Ji He believes that this model is time for reform.

The environment around Star City has deteriorated, powerful racial forces have appeared frequently, and the development of the human race on the front line has become very slow.

The previous combat model is no longer suitable for the current situation.

It is urgent to integrate frontline forces, enhance the military's combat effectiveness, and change the small-scale battle group combat model to an integrated collective combat model.

What he had in mind was to merge the frontline battle groups into the military headquarters.

In the future, the military will open up battlefields and obtain resources through war.

Ji He has analyzed the pros and cons of doing this in detail.

The domain forces in the human world generally show a trend of the big ones eating the small ones, and the speed at which the weak forces are being eliminated is accelerating.

In the past, weak domain forces dominated the mainstream, so the battle group model relied on the efficiency, convenience, flexibility and other characteristics brought by small team operations to become the mainstream of external operations.

But the future battlefield is increasingly moving towards large-scale war.

Star City is becoming stronger by relying on the spiritual resources plundered from the domain field, and so are many domain forces.

Small-scale combat in the form of battle groups will become increasingly difficult to be compatible with future battlefields. At this time, the importance of military headquarters is once again reflected.

In Ji He's opinion, it is very necessary to merge the battle group into the military headquarters.

This can not only improve the overall strength of the military, but also reform the frontline combat model.

Switch the small-scale battle group combat mode to the collective combat mode that the military is best at, and adapt to future racial wars in advance.

This reform has another advantage.

Star City's control of the frontline has reached another level.

The current war group is like a mercenary. In addition to being supervised by Star City, it is mainly managed by the war group.

However, the Chapter General Assembly is not entirely under the management of Star City.

The Chapter Association is an organization jointly established by the five major cities. It manages the scheduling of the battle groups in the five major cities and is a completely independent organization.

Even the Chapter Association's relationship with the Chapter tends to be more cooperative.

If you want to take back the management rights of the frontline battle group, the battle group will always be a hurdle in Ji He's eyes, and the idea of ​​​​the president of the top battle group is even more of a hurdle.

Integrating the frontline battle groups into the military headquarters is not as simple as imagined.

What to do, Ji He already had a clear goal in mind.

He values ​​the ideas of the top war groups more than the Chapter Association, which has a longer arm to manage the war groups.

But it is not easy to directly let the top battle groups take the lead and merge into the military headquarters. The top battle group model allows them to have extremely high autonomy.

In particular, the ten major war groups are nominally equivalent to the military headquarters.

Top battle groups have faced off against the military in history. The Dark Star Chapter stationed in Winter City was once imprisoned by the military because of a branch leader, and had conflicts with the military. Fortunately, the situation was finally resolved. Press down.

If you want the military to incorporate the ten war groups, you need to dismantle the independence of the top war groups.

Ji He did not doubt that if Star City issued an announcement and decided to merge the frontline battle groups into the military headquarters, a large number of battle groups would definitely respond.

But then there will be a double obstacle.

One is the resistance from the Chapter Association, and the other is the resistance from certain top war groups that are unwilling to join the military.

He has no right to interfere with the supply areas of other cities, but Ji He, the war group stationed in the supply area of ​​Star City, has made a decision that it must be firmly controlled by Star City.

But if you want to push the battle group to merge into the military headquarters, being too radical will only be counterproductive.

He decided to start with the battle group structure in the West Supply Zone of Star City and gradually integrate the strength of each battle group.

Before that, he would not reveal his thoughts.

As for who should be responsible for integrating the battle group, Ji He already had the best candidate in mind.

That night, he came to the dungeon of the military headquarters.

In addition to the criminals in the city, there are also some special groups of people imprisoned here.

For example, Dean Hu of the Hupo Research Institute is now being detained here.

But Ji He's target this time is not Dean Hu.

Following the military soldiers, Ji He finally came to a cell.

The cell is made of special metal, and the aura inside has been completely evacuated. The side facing the corridor is made of thick, explosion-proof transparent glass.

After the soldiers on duty left, Ji He reached out and pressed the switch on the wall.

The lights in the cell flickered and then came back on.

I saw a haggard-looking middle-aged man sitting against the wall. His hair was messy and his face was pale.

Looking into each other's eyes, Ji He smiled and said:

"Captain Li."

The man known as Captain Li slowly raised his head at this moment, revealing a pair of eyes full of murderous intent.

Like a captive tiger, his body is full of unruly aura.

The man's name is Li Zhan, and he is the leader of "Death Wings", one of the top ten war groups.

Regarding his historical events, Ji He read the historical materials in detail.

In Ji He's eyes, he was extremely talented, but also ambitious.

During the years of Li Zhan's rise, he was not yet born. At that time, Li Zhan was rated as one of the top ten outstanding graduates in the history of Dawn Academy.

Li Zhan, who graduated from the combat department, was once a legend.

After graduation, he was selected by the "Smashing the Domain Dog Heads" war group, one of the top ten old war groups that still stands today, and he started as a rookie warrior of the top war group.

After three years of frontline training, Li Zhan took the initiative to leave the Smashing Realm Dogheads Chapter and form the Death Wings Chapter.

In the following years, Death Wings experienced rapid rise.

Throughout the history of the development of war groups, except for the Dawn Chapter, one of the top ten war groups, which is now the Dawn Military Department in Winter City, which has an absolutely crushing growth rate, the development of Death Wings is enough to rank in the history of the human race. Top five, even top three.

But Li Zhan's shortcoming is that he is too ambitious.

In the past, Li Zhan relied on his own ambition and drive to gradually bring the Wings of Death to the historical status of the top ten war groups.

But Li Zhan, who became the leader of the Ten Great Regiments, had a new goal.

He wanted to integrate the frontline forces and make the frontline completely independent and no longer under the jurisdiction of the city's senior officials and the Chapter Association.

Li Zhan has never betrayed humanity. His starting point is to give the frontline battle group greater autonomy and to be able to formulate combat strategies with full autonomy. He also hopes to expand the size of the Death Wings battle group and form a military force comparable to that of the military. combat unit.

His idea was undoubtedly to break the frontline structure at that time.

Because of this, Li Zhan embarked on the road of fighting against the city and the Chapter Association, and eventually became a prisoner.

A rising star dimmed. Finally, after a joint trial by the Chapter Association, the United Military Headquarters, and the top officials of each city, it was decided to send Li Zhan back to his hometown of Star City and be imprisoned in the military prison of Star City.

The sword was sheathed, and as time went by, Li Zhan gradually faded out of people's sight.

Li Zhan looks like he is in his 40s now, but his real age is already over a hundred years old.

The Death Wings Chapter he founded is still a top-level Chapter, but it has long lost its glory when Li Zhan was still there.

In Ji He's eyes, it was time for this sheathed sword to be unsheathed.

Li Zhan was the best chess piece in his eyes, and his ideas coincided with his own. He wanted to use Li Zhan to integrate the battle groups in the West Supply Zone of Star City, and then let the military take over.

"and who are you?"

Li Zhan's cold and hoarse voice sounded.

"Ji He, a member of Star City's Supreme Council."

"What do you want from me?"

"I always think that you were right in the past. The idea of ​​integrating the front line was just too advanced, and your behavior was too radical... In the future, all forces on the battlefield will fight based on race, and the battle group combat model is too fragmented. , it is impossible to form an effective collective force for confrontation in the face of powerful powerful clans."

Listening to Ji He's detailed analysis of the frontline situation, Li Zhan's eyes fluctuated.

Because what Ji He said was exactly what he had thought.

Ji He's every word spoke to his heart, making him feel like he had found his soulmate after not having any mood swings for a long time.

"Captain Li, new reforms are needed in the future to adapt to the new era, and I need your help."

"Even though you are a member of Star City's Supreme Council, you can't take me out of here."

At this time, Li Zhan was obviously persuaded, but in the face of Ji He's recruitment, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Captain Li, the world has undergone earth-shaking changes in the years since you were imprisoned. First, the future city was destroyed. Later, our connection with the old city and the victory city were gradually cut off. The main road connecting the cities Basically covered by the domain field, the influence of the war group on Star City has become weaker and weaker... As for the pressure within Star City, you don’t need to worry, I can handle it."

Under Ji He's persuasion, Li Zhan's eyes kept changing.

"Captain Li, you are a legend in the past. I believe you can create greater glory in this new era."

This time, Li Zhan's eyes became firm, he looked at Ji He and nodded:

"I didn't expect that I could find a confidant who understands me even though I'm half dead. In this case, I have nothing to hesitate about."

When the prison door was opened, Ji He's right hand held Li Zhan's.

Ji He spoke at this moment:

"Captain Li, I will arrange for three outstanding newcomers to assist you. The future of the front line depends on you."

"good."

…

The end of Daybreak 403.

Li Zhan was released from prison and rushed to the front line with three elite soldiers arranged by Ji He.

At the beginning of Daybreak 404, under the arrangement of Ji He, Li Zhan rejoined the Death Wings Chapter that he created by himself, and returned to take charge of the Death Wings Chapter at the end of the year.

The plan to integrate the Chapter began.

Li Zhan worked hard on the front line, and Ji He cooperated at the rear to provide all-round support.

Facing the inquiry from the Chapter General Assembly, Ji He used the excuses he had already prepared to stabilize the Chapter Association.

During this period, Li Zhan's performance did not disappoint him, and he began to expand the Death Wings Chapter.

In order to increase the influence of the Death Wings Chapter, Ji He took the initiative to arrange most of the combat students who graduated from Daybreak and Star City this year into the Death Wings Chapter.

Time flies, 407 years dawn.

This year, under the management of Li Zhan and the support of Ji He, Wings of Death were promoted to the first battle group in the West Supply Zone of Star City by adding fresh blood and annexing small battle groups.

After four years of contact and cooperation, Li Zhan regarded Ji He as his confidant and was full of trust in Ji He.

But in Ji He's eyes, Li Zhan's achievements were far from enough, and he could not achieve the goal he wanted at all.

A large number of small war groups in the West Supply Zone of Star City have been merged into the Death Wings Chapter, but the Death Wings Chapter has limited influence on the top war groups and cannot annex these top war groups at all.

Ji He has already figured out what to do next for Li Zhan.

Waging war on the Aegis field.

The Holy Shield Field is a powerful force that occupies the supply area of ​​Star City to the west. It has been at odds with the front line for more than ten years, but the human race has never taken action against this field force.

But this time, Ji He decided to let Li Zhan use the fight against the Holy Shield Field as a guide to form a joint battle group.

Since it is a joint battle group, it must have a commander-in-chief.

Ji He had been planning this move for a long time.

Li Zhan, who is in charge of the strongest battle group on the front line, is undoubtedly the best candidate to be the commander-in-chief of the joint combat army.

In the next few years, with Ji He's support, Li Zhan became the commander-in-chief of the combined battle group as he wished, commanding all battle groups on the front line.

In the war against the Holy Shield Field, Ji He asked Li Zhan to deliberately slow down the progress.

In Ji He's eyes, this period of time is the best time for Li Zhan to control the front line.

During this period, Li Zhan gradually dismantled the top battle groups, divided them into joint sub-groups and gradually merged into the Death Wings Chapter.

A frontline coalition force comparable to the military headquarters gradually formed.

During the fight against the Holy Shield Field, Li Zhan gradually deepened his control over the combined battle group, and deliberately began to train frontline soldiers to fight in the form of a legion in accordance with Ji He's philosophy to exercise the overall combat coordination ability.

At this time, Li Zhan already had a comprehensive combat power comparable to that of the Dawn Chapter.

It can even be said that he can compete with Star City's military on his own.

And this was exactly Li Zhan's dream.

In Daybreak 412, the United Battle Group successfully dispelled the Holy Shield Field. Only a few members of the Holy Shield Tribe fled the field and became a wandering force.

But Li Zhan did not disband the joint battle group.

Invited by Ji He, Li Zhan returned to Star City for a celebration banquet.

The entire Star City was bustling with excitement as a result. Everyone was immersed in the joy of victory and looked forward to Star City ushering in a new period of rapid development with the huge resources brought by the Holy Shield Field.

Li Zhan also appeared in the news many times and became a hero in people's eyes again.

Facts have proved that Ji He and Li Zhan's decision was right. Facing powerful domain forces, only by integrating frontline forces can they adapt to an increasingly cruel future.

Five days later.

Li Zhan was invited by Ji He to come to the main administrative building of Star City, Ji He's office.

That night, Li Zhan and Ji He toasted and drank, chatting happily.

At this time, Li Zhan was both grateful and full of trust towards Ji He.

Until today, Ji He was both his boss and his benefactor, who had brought him out of the dark underground prison, so he never thought that there was anything wrong with the wine he drank.

Ji He added the crazy factor extracted from Tianshu's blood into the wine.

In order to help Tianshu solve his out-of-control and crazy condition, Xingcheng conducted research on Tianshu's body, and Tianshu's blood was also preserved.

After that night, Li Zhan returned to the front line, and soon began to suffer from illness.

He began to lose control and became delirious at times.

The frontline medical system obviously cannot solve the problem of Li Zhan losing control and going crazy.

So Ji He used this as an excuse to take Li Zhan back to Star City.

At this time, Li Zhan was obviously no longer suitable to control the frontline joint battle group.

Three followers who initially followed Li Zhan and are now the leaders of the three divisions of the United Chapter stood out and began to manage the United Chapter on Li Zhan's behalf.

Every step was carefully planned by Ji He.

Li Zhan's value in Ji He's eyes has been exhausted, and in the future he will only become an obstacle for the military to annex the combined battle group.

How could he not know what Li Zhan was thinking.

He was ambitious and wanted to create an independent frontline army that could stand side by side with the military.

This is a result Ji He doesn't want to see.

So from the beginning, he was using Li Zhan, using Li Zhan's ability to plant seeds, and letting Li Zhan carefully cultivate and grow them. Now the seeds have blossomed and it is time to harvest.

The three elite warriors who followed Li Zhan back then were the back-up men laid by Ji He.

Now that Li Zhan has lost control of the combined battle group, they will cooperate with the military to gradually transfer power and merge the battle group system into the military system and become part of the military.

In Ji He's eyes, the military is the only force on the future battlefield.

As for Li Zhan's future, he will return to the prison that belongs to him. In Ji He's eyes, he has completed his historical mission.

…

On this day, when Ji He came to the military headquarters dungeon, he appeared in front of Li Zhan again.

It can be seen through the glass that Li Zhan's eyes are distracted at this time, huddled in the corner of the prison, and he no longer has the proud demeanor when he defeated the Holy Shield Field.

Li Zhan seemed to sense it, and slowly raised his head to look at Ji He. There was no sadness or loss in his eyes, he just sneered:

"Ji He, you hide it so deeply. Only now do I understand what you want. You have always been using me, and it is in vain that I regard you as my confidant."

“Reform always comes with sacrifice.”

"So I became a victim of your push to reform the Star City system, right?"

Faced with Li Zhan's question, Ji He did not answer. He looked at Li Zhan for a long time and then said:

"Now the outside world thinks that you are receiving treatment secretly in Star City, but your influence on the front line is huge, and I can't possibly let you out again... Whatever you need to live here, you can ask for it at any time, and I will satisfy you."

"Are you pitying me?"

"No, I'm just using this way to make up for the guilt in my heart."

Ji He expressed his thoughts without any secret.

"What are you going to do next?"

"Dismember the frontline battle group system and merge it into the military department, then reform the military department system, and build the general department into a sharp sword for Star City's external operations."

"As expected, it's a pity that I have only now seen through your thoughts. I am completely defeated."

When he said these words, Li Zhan's eyes flickered and his emotions were a little out of control.

Ji He didn't answer anymore, bent down and bowed deeply to Li Zhan, then turned and left.

Seeing Ji He leaving, Li Zhan took two steps forward, pressed himself against the transparent glass, and shouted to the departing Ji He with red eyes:

"Ji He, does the path you choose have to be the right one?"

"History will tell."

Ji He replied without looking back.

"History will give you the answer. You are more determined than I thought. If I guessed correctly that you have secretly controlled the entire Star City, even I have begun to believe that you can succeed, hahahaha."

Looking in the distance in the direction where Li Zhan left, Li Zhan burst into hysterical laughter.
