1018 Space Fleet
When Lawrence stepped onto the dock, he felt the whole ground shake beneath his feet. He had been at sea for so long that he was not used to life on land.
Just a week ago, he was directing the battle to shell the demon positions in the port of Santoba in the Demon Realm, and now he was hastily transferred back to Iran Hill by the Emperor.
Standing on the ground, he felt his feet on a ball of cotton. He was a traditional navy, accustomed to drifting on the seas.
Land is both familiar and unfamiliar to people like him, he doesn't quite recognize the Falling Demon City anymore, and he no longer recognizes the ferry port opposite the Falling Demon City where he has been adrift for more than ten years.
The ferry port is his second home, or the place he cares about the most in this life. Gone are the former salt works here, replaced by two huge nuclear power plants side by side.
The people in this city used to worry about their food and clothing, but now the houses they live in are worth millions of gold coins.
The closest to the sea view house in Seris City, the value is not usually expensive! Even a small single room in the city is enough for many people to struggle for a lifetime.
Everyone on the streets was full of confidence and smiles written on their faces, which Lawrence could not have imagined eight years ago.
He couldn't dream that the people he cared about could live in the sun, rich and happy, one day!
All these things were given by His Majesty the Emperor, and all these things were brought to Ferry City by His Majesty the Emperor. Chris fulfilled his promise, and Lawrence took that to heart.
As the Admiral of the Empire, he firmly used his loyalty to repay His Majesty the Emperor for all he had done. As long as Ferry City exists, his loyalty will not waver in any way.
"General!" Next to the car that greeted him, a major helped him open the door: "We have been waiting for you for a long time. ”
"Let's go!" Lawrence, who had already felt that there was something uncomfortable for him on land, got into the luxurious little car.
The moment the car started, he seemed to have regained that feeling of wandering. The shock absorption system of this luxury car is very good, so that the whole car vibrates slightly, and it will show a flickering and shaking feeling.
Lawrence liked it, and he fell asleep in a daze with his eyes closed. He likes to close his eyes on the magnificent sea and feel the freedom of drifting.
This is his insistence, and he firmly believes that only in the unfettered freedom will he cherish the sincere concern in his heart more and more.
In his sleep, he seemed to be back in his own fleet, sitting on his flagship, holding a telescope, facing a dense crowd of enemies.
He was not afraid, he did not flinch - because he knew that his fleet was invincible and could not fail.
The battleships gathered around him were clad in iron armor, and the huge cannons on the deck followed his gaze towards the enemy in the distance.
Then 10,000 cannons rang out, countless shells flew in the direction of the enemy's fleet, and suddenly the sea was full of huge waves, and everywhere there were burning and broken wreckage of battleships, and oil stains that filled the sea.
Before Lawrence could tell whether he had won or lost, he was woken up by a gentle shake: "General! Checkmate! It's here! ”
Lawrence got out of the car, straightened his white navy uniform, and then fastened his big-brimmed hat to his head in a proper manner, and then walked up the stairs into the imposing building in front of him.
This is the royal palace of Ferry City, the property of the royal family here, and the center of the whole city.
"Stand upright!" The guards on both sides raised their chins and held their steel spears in front of them, singing loudly. Lawrence stepped forward as he raised his arm in a meticulous salute.
Chris was waiting for Lawrence in his makeshift office, and Andrea seemed a little excited, because she had just received definite news that Chris would decide on a specific itinerary to the Moon Temple in the near future.
She can't wait to see the great legacy of her ancestors.
When Lawrence walked to the door of Chris's office, Luther, the royal butler at the door, personally pushed the door open for him. This flattered Lawrence a little, and quickly nodded slightly to Luther to express his gratitude.
As the saying goes, the prime minister has a seven-rank official in front of the door, and the one in front of His Majesty the Emperor may not be a seven-rank official - who dares to treat Luther as a simple official, I am afraid it is really out of mind.
Luther helped Lawrence close the door, and before Lawrence could speak, Chris spoke first: "Calling you back this time is actually something to announce. ”
He said as he picked up a box from his desk: "I intend to promote you to Marshal of the Reich......"
"Your Majesty......" Although Lawrence had heard some rumors in advance, he really heard such a shocking news from Chris's mouth, and his eyes widened in flattery: "Your Majesty is panicked! ”
"Don't panic just yet." Chris smiled and walked around his desk, handed the box in his hand to Lawrence and said, "This is your marshal's epaulettes, from today onwards, the Imperial Navy will be officially merged into the Army and under the command of Marshal Wagron." ”
"This?" Lawrence was a little puzzled by what Chris meant by such an arrangement.
"The Imperial Navy has since been abolished, and all operations on the surface of the planet have been placed under the command of the Imperial Army." Chris smiled and said to Lawrnes, "This could be bad news for you. ”
"Of course, there's good news." Chris was a little unbearable when he saw Lawrence with a pale face, so he didn't keep the suspense for too long, and continued: "I have decided to establish the Imperial Space Force and the First Space Fleet from now on...... Commander, it's yours for the time being. ”
"Cosmic ......" Lawrence was a little shocked and immediately realized that he might have gained a broader future at this moment.
"Yes, don't you like to keep your feet on the ground?" Chris made a joke: "Then I'll let you wander as much as you want!" In the vast universe, tens of millions of kilometers and hundreds of millions of kilometers of drifting! ”
"Your Majesty!" Lawrence figured all this, and realized what Chris's words meant, so he knelt down on one knee excitedly, bowed his head and thanked him: "The minister is willing to fight for His Majesty in the universe!" Till death! ”
Chris stretched out his hand to help Lawrence and solemnly instructed, "The formation and training of my First Space Fleet will all be handed over to you...... Hope you ...... Don't let me down! ”
"I will do my best! My Emperor...... Banzai! Lawrence once again got down on one knee and solemnly promised.

Happy Army Day!
