Special Expert of Beauty CEO-Chapter 1483 - 1487: Promoted Two Ranks

Lei Shi actually charged directly towards Long Shan's command center!

"Rumor has it that Lei Shi has passed the Transcendance Tribulation Stage and entered the Longevity Realm. With this kind of impact, I'm afraid I can't stop him!"

Seeing Lei Shi barreling towards them, Long Shan felt a bit of fear, shook his head and sighed, and ordered, "Pass my command: the entire army retreat to Luo City!"

Lei Shi is a master who has passed the Transcendance Tribulation Stage and entered the Longevity Realm. Long Shan, who is still at the Nascent Soul Stage Peak, does not dare to confront such a person. So, upon seeing Lei Shi coming, and with Lei Shi's army arriving, Long Shan chose to retreat without hesitation!

Even in retreat, the Dragon Clan army retreated in an orderly manner. However, after Lei Shi became enraged, he chased fiercely and killed several hundred Dragon Clan soldiers!

The battle ended quickly. After the Dragon Clan army retreated, it took less than half an hour for Sea City to calm down. Outside the city gates, there were piles of corpses, including those of Dragon Clan soldiers and Human Clan soldiers, primarily the latter.

Lei Shi, with his strong physique, looked like a Herculean warrior. After the Dragon Clan retreated, he did not pursue, as he had only brought a vanguard force of a few thousand and did not have the means for a deep chase.

"This subordinate pays respects to Sir Lei Shi!"

When Lei Shi returned to the bottom of Sea City's walls, Liu Weihao was so moved that tears fell. If Lei Shi had not arrived in time, they certainly would have all been slaughtered by the Dragon Clan.

Along with Liu Weihao, City Lord Fang and Qin Tian, as well as other Centurions, also came forward to pay respects. At this moment, Sea City only had about a thousand people left.

Lei Shi looked at the tragic scene after the battle before him, nodded, and said emotionally, "Liu Weihao, well done! You do us proud as a member of our City Guard Army!"

Lei Shi personally helped Liu Weihao up, exclaiming, "Wu Tao ran away, and the other Centurions also fled. Yet, you stayed, and with just a thousand men, you managed to hold off ten thousand Dragon Clan soldiers. You have guts! Your contribution is monumental!"

Liu Weihao was overwhelmed with excitement. He swallowed, glanced at Qin Tian, and earnestly said, "General Lei, this time, in being able to defend Sea City, I merely performed my duty as Commander. But in terms of strategic planning and remote decision-making, it was my Centurion, Qin Tian, who deserves the credit!"

"Oh?"

Lei Shi directed his gaze at Qin Tian.

Qin Tian bowed to Lei Shi, feeling a breath of relief.

He had thought that Liu Weihao might take credit, but fortunately, Liu Weihao, though lacking decisiveness, turned out to be quite upright as a person.

"You are a Centurion under Liu's command? Is your name Qin Tian?"

Lei Shi questioned Qin Tian.

Qin Tian nodded, "Yes."

"Hehe, Liu said you were pivotal in defending Sea City. Do you dare to accept this credit?" Lei Shi asked again.

Qin Tian raised his head, looked at Lei Shi, and said, "I am willing to share this honor with Lord Liu and City Lord Fang!"

Upon hearing this, both City Lord Fang and Liu Weihao were shocked. They did not expect Qin Tian to be so magnanimous despite achieving great success.

Seeing Lei Shi stunned, Qin Tian explained, "I am merely a Centurion, and without the full support of Lord Liu and City Lord Fang, without their overall command, I could not have achieved anything. Thus, this accomplishment is not mine alone but belongs to Lord Liu, City Lord Fang, and all our soldiers!"

"Well said!"

As Qin Tian finished speaking, Lei Shi gave him a thumbs up and exclaimed, "I like what you said!"

"Rest assured, for all of you who survived today, I will report everything to Governor Xiao. At that time, I will detail your actions and personally advocate for your merits!"

Lei Shi said, as he walked inside the city, "I came this time leading the vanguard on a rapid march to support you. The main force is still behind. Once they arrive, we will start reorganizing. Qin Tian, tell me, how did you miraculously defend Sea City? When I decided to quick march, I thought you wouldn't be able to hold it. Hahaha... you truly impressed me, a miracle indeed!"

Inside the City Lord Mansion of Sea City, a banquet was hosted by City Lord Fang in honor of Lei Shi and others.

During the feast, Qin Tian recounted the battle to defend Sea City, with City Lord Fang and Liu Weihao adding details. The three of them together depicted the entire scenario.

After hearing it, not only Lei Shi but also the two other generals present were deeply impressed by Qin Tian's strategy.

Lei Shi personally poured Qin Tian a glass of wine, saying, "Qin Tian, you've graduated from East Han Academy, and your background is quite esteemed. Rising from Centurion to Centurion at your speed is already fast. Moreover, your first battle in Sea City was so remarkable. Truly a rare talent! Come, I toast to you!"

With Lei Shi leading, everyone began taking turns to toast.

That night, Qin Tian finally relaxed, allowing himself to sleep peacefully.

Early the next morning, the main forces arrived. It turned out that the main force was led by a General from the South Camp of East State, with Lei Shi merely being a deputy commander.

The commander from the South Camp brought news that the mission of the City Guard Army was complete, and they could withdraw to East Capital City, as East State's battlefield would now be fully taken over by the South Camp.

"This is a decision jointly made by Governor Xiao and the City Lord Mansion. I am here to coordinate,"

Lei Shi explained to Liu Weihao and Qin Tian, "So, feel free to leave Sea City in the hands of the South Camp. Now that the entire East State battlefield is handed over to the South Camp with their hundred thousand troops, the City Lord has issued strict orders to drive away the Dragon Clan by the end of the year. Our City Guard Army's duty was to defend Sea City. Now that we've fulfilled it, the rest is not our concern. We're retreating."

Under Lei Shi's lead, the City Guard Army began to withdraw to East Capital City.

On the way back, Qin Tian learned that Commander Wu Tao, who fled the battle, was captured by Lei Shi and executed on the spot!

The other nine Centurions who ran away with him were also directly executed by Lei Shi, without even reporting to the superiors.

"Indeed, a bloodthirsty general... Admirable."

Qin Tian reflected after hearing this. However, since one Commander and nine Centurions perished, given his achievements in Sea City, he thought he should be promoted to Centurion now, right?

Centurion, commanding a thousand men, is already a decent rank.

In half a year, Qin Tian had advanced from Squad Leader to Centurion... an almost rocket-like promotion speed.

"This time, Centurion Qin Tian achieved miraculous feats in defending Sea City. Both the City Lord and Governor Xiao Zhan were greatly pleased and personally instructed for a special commendation. At Governor Xiao Zhan's recommendation, Qin Tian is hereby promoted to Commander of the Seventh Army, effective immediately!"

On the second day of returning to East Capital City, Qin Tian received his promotion order.

However, to his immense shock, he was not promoted to Centurion but directly two ranks up to Commander!

A Commander commanding ten thousand troops!
