Please pull the trigger for this world one more time.

Mo Zian and Han Dafu took the document. Looking at it, they saw three words written at the top: "Commendation Order".

The commendation order was not long, and the two of them finished reading it in no time.

"Have you finished watching?"

Mo Zian: "Reporting to the Vice Principal, I've finished reading it."

"What are your thoughts?"

Mo Zian: "Reporting to the Vice Principal, I'm delighted."

"That's it?"

Mo Zian: "Reporting to the vice principal, that's all."

The old man then turned to Han Dafu, "And you, daughter?"

"Huh? Oh, report to the vice principal, I don't feel anything..."

"You don't feel anything?" The old man, Chen Zhiming, was slightly taken aback.

"Yeah, it's not really that practical..."

Feeling someone tug at his clothes, Han Dafu shrank back sheepishly. "Ah... of course I'm very happy. A soldier's honor is priceless. I'm just being blunt, please don't mind."

Mo Zian rubbed his temples with a hint of helplessness.

"Hahahaha! This is interesting, so interesting! In all these years, you're the first girl to talk to me like this, hahahahaha!"

The old man sat in his chair, looked up at the sky, and laughed heartily: "However, I think this is quite good! Soldiers should be patriots, loyal to their country, outspoken, brave, and straightforward. I think that's great! There shouldn't be so many twists and turns here!"

Mo Zian and Han Dafu exchanged glances, unsure how to respond.

"Alright, let's get back to the main topic."

The old man pushed two exquisite square boxes in front of the two of them. "These are the bronze medals of bravery mentioned in the commendation order. This is the highest level of commendation that can be awarded in an exercise, not a real battle. Come, take a look."

Mo Zian opened the wooden box, inside which lay a bright yellow medal with a relief pattern of two overlapping blades on its surface.

The back is inscribed with the words "Fight bravely and defeat the enemy first" in a hollowed-out design.

"You did a great job in this exercise, especially in giving those foreign soldiers a good beating, severely dampening their spirits and greatly boosting the prestige of our Guangwu Army. Although there are some high-level issues involved, you don't need to worry about them. I'll take care of everything."

All you need to know is that some people at the top are extremely satisfied with the results of this exercise, even to the point of being pleasantly surprised.

The old man looked seriously at the two young men in front of him. "Originally, awarding bronze medals, even if it's simple, would require a ceremony, but I canceled it. Soldiers don't have that kind of fuss."

Mo Zian put down the badge and solemnly said to the old man, "Thank you, Vice Principal."

"Oh? Interesting. What are you thanking me for? The medal was awarded by the higher-ups, not by me." The old man looked at Mo Zian with great interest.

"No, the student wanted to thank you for canceling the award ceremony."

Mo Zian explained, "My master once taught me that 'the tallest tree in the forest will be felled by the wind.' Keep things simple. True skills are your own and cannot be given by others."

"Great! Excellent!"

The old man, Chen Zhiming, looked on with admiration. "I am very pleased to have spoken with you two young people today. With such talented individuals in our empire, how can we not hope for the prosperity of our nation?"

"You flatter me, Vice Principal."

The old man seemed very happy, picked up a cigar next to him and took a big puff: "Alright, we've finished talking about the important matters. This old man has a few more things to say to you."

As the old man spoke, he took a letter from the drawer and handed it to Han Dafu: "Daughter, it's hard for outsiders to get through here. Deputy Commander Guo from Tianhe Port asked me to pass on a message to you, saying that everything is fine at home, so don't worry. It's all in the letter. Go back and read it yourself."

"Yes." Han Dafu took the letter.

The old man turned to Mo Zian and said, "Child, there are some things I'd like to discuss with you in detail, or rather, explore with you."

Mo Zian sat in his chair and bowed slightly, saying, "I dare not presume to discuss this. Please tell me what you think, and I will answer to the best of my knowledge."

"You don't need to be modest. I've read your exercise report, and it's very well written, especially the many specific suggestions for improvement that have sparked a lot of discussion."

The old man took another puff of his cigar. "I mainly want to talk to you in detail about the airship on Shuhu Lake. I've read your report, and it's very insightful."

Mo Zian was somewhat surprised that his idea was actually taken seriously, but he wasn't too surprised either.

After all, I frequently used helicopters for missions in my previous life, and many of my tactics were already well-established.

Mo Zian organized his thoughts and replied, "That's right, my idea is based on the performance of the [Shuhu] airship in the exercise."

Seeing the old man nod encouragingly, Mo Zian continued, "Many people believe that the speed of the [Shuhu] airship is its key advantage, and that is indeed true. However, I believe that the [Shuhu] airship's main advantage does not lie in this."

The old man showed interest: "Tell me in detail."

"Yes. I have read through the Empire's equipment catalog. In fact, if we're talking about speed, the Empire's [Peng-type] airship is not slower than the [Shu-hu] airship, and its capacity is also much larger than the [Shu-hu].

I believe that the biggest advantage of the Shuhu is actually its stealth flight and ease of landing. Compared with traditional airships, the Shuhu airship is very flexible in its use. It does not require a special take-off and landing field. As long as there is a slightly flat area, it can take off and land quickly.

Moreover, at its most extreme, the [Shuhu] airship can even fly close to the treeline, which I believe is its greatest advantage.

The old man nodded. "Well said... please continue."

"Yes. So I think the [Shuhu] airship is a piece of equipment that is different from all the airships currently in service with the Empire. Its role should not be limited to transportation or service with the air force, because in terms of transport capacity alone, the [Shuhu] is actually not very qualified."

"Then tell me, what should be the positioning of the [Shuhu] airship?" the old man asked, squinting his eyes and resting his chin on his hand.

"I believe that the [Shuhu] airship should be a weapon primarily designed for infiltration, rapid breakthrough, and even rapid reconnaissance."

However, the current [Shuhu] is at a disadvantage in terms of rapid penetration, mainly due to its insufficient defenses and lack of firepower.

Chen Zhiming: "So, you mentioned your improvement ideas in the report?"

Mo Zian: "Yes, but they are just some superficial ideas."

"But it is precisely these ideas that are valuable." The old man, Chen Zhiming, pointed at Mo Zian. "Most people don't have these basic ideas."

"You flatter me, Vice Principal."

The old man, Chen Zhiming, said to Mo Zian with a serious expression, "It was the right decision for me to talk to you today. It seems I need to listen to your ideas more often in the future... Alright, let's stop here for today. You should go back and rest."

"Yes, Vice Principal."
