The detailed battle report of the Shanhai Pass battle was quickly sent to Earth Presidential Palace.
President Lin Zhen, Vice President Ed, Interstellar Fleet Commander-in-Chief Saunders and a group of staff once again gathered in the Presidential Palace highest conference room.
"Actually, Lin Fan has done a good enough job. Speaking of which, there is still a shortcoming in military strength!"
"Yes, it is indeed difficult for him to have a battleship that is less than one million!"
"This result, even if it is replaced with Liang Xingchen, it may not be better than Lin Fan!"
"Indeed, the minimum loss we originally estimated would be as high as 100,000 warships, and about 200 million federal soldiers would be killed!"
More than 50 million federal soldiers were killed, which was definitely a heavy blow to the federation.
It can even be said that the Federation has not experienced such great damage since its re-emergence.
However, no one in the entire conference room said that Lin Fan had misdirected and needed to take responsibility.
Everyone understands that Lin Fan has done well enough, even better than the best results they had expected before!
"Okay, the death of 50 million federal soldiers is not a small matter. The follow-up and aftermath work must be done well! Saunders, there must be no problems in this regard!"
In fact, Lin Zhen specifically took care of Saunders and ensured that there would be no problems in the aftermath. This was not because he did not trust Saunders, but in fact, he was reminding Saunders to do a good job in supervision.
After all, the aftermath of the death of federal soldiers has always been handled by Interstellar Fleet, not Presidential Palace. However, in Interstellar Fleet headquarters, even if all Establishment Faction are now cleared away, it cannot be said that there are no moths at all.
Since the establishment of the Federation, there have been problems with the pensions for soldiers killed in action. After all, greed is human nature. Under huge interests, there will always be people who take risks. This is not surprising.
In fact, there were very few people who did such things in Establishment Faction. After all, most people in Establishment Faction pursue power and status, not money!
Although through the efforts of high-level federal officials over the years, this phenomenon has been suppressed to the greatest extent, there are very few people who have the courage to make mistakes regarding pensions.
But the problem is that this time, the number of casualties was a full 50 million!
In addition, the Federation is now rich, richer than ever before! The benefits of federal soldiers have increased several times. The most important thing is that the current pension for federal soldiers killed in action is ten times what it was before!
With such a large number of casualties and huge pensions, some people will definitely take risks.
If no one is using their brains in this regard, Lin Zhen will definitely not believe it.
Therefore, Lin Zhen specially reminds Saunders here.
"President, I understand!"
As for Saunders, who has been an old marshal for decades, how could he not understand the meaning of Lin Zhen, and how could he not understand the inherent greed of some people.
In fact, Saunders has already thought about setting up multiple overt or covert supervision teams this time to strictly supervise every penny of every link and never let anyone take advantage of it!
However, at this moment Saunders still doesn't know that some people are even more courageous than he could imagine!
One day later, Federal Presidential Palace held a press conference to inform the relevant details of the Shanhai Pass battle.
When Lin Zhen said that the number of human casualties in this battle was 50 million, the atmosphere in the entire hall instantly became depressing.
The number of 50 million people is like a huge stone, weighing on the hearts of everyone in the hall.
Maybe it's because they are used to fighting low-level civilizations. Humans have become accustomed to extremely low casualty rates, but they have forgotten that they are just low-level civilizations!
But now, the Shanhai Pass battle is facing a civilization at the same level as the Federation, and its military strength is more than three times that of the Federation.
Subsequently, Lin Fan also announced that pension benefits would begin to be distributed one after another in three days, and asked all federal citizens to supervise to ensure that every pension reaches the right person.
After the press conference, the Internet was naturally abuzz. The death of 50 million people immediately became a topic of discussion for everyone, and even sounded the alarm for some people.
Don't just look at Federal Fleet's extremely generous salary, and everyone wants to come in. You have to understand that in Federal Fleet, you really have to work hard, and it's not that easy to get along.
At the same time, there will always be discordant voices, and the world will never be short of idiots.
There were even several voices on the Internet demanding that Lin Fan be responsible for the death of 50 million people, but they were quickly criticized by others. After all, the people of the Federation are not the people of the Federation who have been rich for decades, and they are not so easy to be led by others.
There are more than 800,000 warships, and 3 million warships of the same level have been wiped out. You still have to set the pace. If you don't want to criticize anyone, who will you criticize!
Soon, a month passed. What Lin Zhen and Saunders didn't expect was that no tampering was found. This was obviously very different from their expectations.
Lin Zhen absolutely does not believe that in the face of such a huge amount of wealth, no one should use their brains.
Then there is only one possibility, and that is that some people's methods are too clever and they have perfectly avoided their supervision.
But if this is the case, what method was used?
In the President's Office, Lin Zhen was looking at the payment of the pension and frowning because he found some abnormalities.
Just now, when he was filtering and retrieving the pension payment situation, he discovered an unnatural data.
Normally, the payment of pensions will definitely encounter a problem, that is, if the fallen federal soldier has no immediate relatives, the pension will be given to the second heir who is not an immediate relative. Every time the pension of federal soldiers is distributed, the proportion of this type of people is between 2-3%.
However, Lin Zhen discovered that this time the pensions were distributed to 50 million people, all of which were received by their immediate family members, which was obviously very abnormal.
But unfortunately, all the pension recipients have their certificates, and no loopholes can be found.
If you want to do this.
Lin Zhen thought of a possibility, a possibility of being able to do this kind of thing. If this is the case, I'm afraid there will be too many people involved this time!
However, no matter how big the involvement was, Lin Zhen decided to uproot them.
Thinking of this, Lin Zhen immediately called Ed and told him about the problem he had discovered. Ed was also very surprised after hearing this!
The two then talked secretly in the President's Office for two full hours before Ed left.
Three days later, Ed came to Lin Zhen's presidential office again.
"It's confirmed, just as you guessed!"
Ed entered the office, looked at Lin Zhen with an ugly expression and said.
