40,000 Years of Cultivation

The imperial defenders garrisoning Qinglan Star finally arrived late.

But at this time, the chaos of nearly a million people has reached an uncontrollable degree.

Although not all of these blood alliance assassins' comrades were involved in the conspiracy, under the stimulation of the friendship of life and death for more than ten years, they still intentionally or unintentionally expanded the chaos and interfered with the response of the local defenders.

"There isn't a lot of good stuff from the Logistics Department and the Quartermaster Department!"

"It is because the supply of ammunition and spar fuel is not up, that we have not been able to expand the results!"

"The soldiers at the front are heroes, and the high-ranking officials at the rear are bastards!"

This is the consensus of almost all front-line troops.

Even if the frontline troops directly belonging to the four major electoral families have been fighting for more than ten years, they would instinctively think so.

When the furious local garrison finally rushed to the parade, the assault ship, which was set to burn with jade, had already slammed into it.

Although various anti-aircraft weapons can shoot this assault ship full of holes, there is no way to annihilate tens of thousands of tons of heavy metal.

The shattered and burning assault ship resembled a screaming meteor, smashing **** the parade. The shock wave threw all the soldiers who came for rescue hundreds of meters away. The flames evaporated and the gunpowder was full of smoke. What? I can't see it anymore!

Up to this moment, the empire's veteran Dongfang Tuo had not died.

His loyal personal guards all blocked the assassins on the parade stage, and even some people did not hesitate to overdraw their lives, intertwining their souls and psychic energy into a powerful defensive shield, helping the empire veteran to block the impact damage caused by the assault ship's impact.

"Protect the elders, the elders go!"

A team of Qinglan Star local defenders escorted the seriously injured Dongfang Tuo away.

They slapped the oval magic weapon around their waists, and a translucent arc-shaped shield appeared behind everyone. Seven or eight shields overlapped, like a solid turtle shell, which stretched the east tightly. Solid and airtight.

Before that, a leaflet was floating, crawling through the gap in the shield, and falling onto Dongfang Tuo's face.

Dongfang Tuo raised his head strenuously from the suspended stretcher, barely enough energy to read the contents of the leaflet carefully, only halfway through it, his face was pale, blood spilled from the corners of his mouth, and he was extremely angry.

"This bunch of **** are rebellious and lawless!"

The empire elder gritted his teeth and shouted, "The army... has been infiltrated to such an extent, it's almost, almost, almost—"

Before he could say what was behind "Almost", he heard a heavy and messy gasp from around him.

Slightly startled, he turned his head to look, only to see a local defender of the Qinglan star staring straight at him, also sweating, with red eyes and neurotic twitching at the corners of his mouth.

Dongfang Tuo's pupils instantly shrank into needle points: "...Wait, this is not true!"

"Slay the country thief and defend the empire!"

The local defender of the Qing Lan star roared wildly and tore away his crystal armor, revealing it underneath, undergoing a modification operation, removing most of the internal organs, filling it with a terrifying body with super destructive spar bombs, and heading eastward The topology came up, and before the rest of the soldiers could react, they hugged the elder of the empire.

"Long live the empire!"

The soldier laughed wildly, and shouted hoarsely amidst wild laughter.

"boom!"

Inside the light ball formed by the overlapping of the psychic shields, an extremely dazzling red fireball burst out, and the empire veteran Dongfang Taku who was seriously injured was killed on the spot.

The opponent's spar bomb seems to have adopted a special design and extremely insidious formula, specifically aimed at the destruction of the soul.

When the situation was finally under control, when the defenders sent Dongfang Tuo's torn apart scorched corpse to the hospital for rescue, they could not save even a ray of soul and were completely gone.

——This is the "Blood League Event" that happened three days ago and will soon shock the entire empire.

The huge real human empire controls hundreds of great worlds, but in all areas, there are only 500 veterans in total.

The status and value of each empire veteran can be imagined.

In the past, it was not that the Holy League assassins assassinated the elders of the empire.

But in broad daylight, especially during the triumphal ceremony of the imperial army gathered by millions of people, an imperial veteran was assassinated by his own army, which is the first time since the empire opened up.

The spar bomb embedded in the members of the Blood League only bloomed for 0.5 seconds, but the shock wave it set off was far from stopping. After killing Dongfang Tuo, it still surpassed the speed of light, rippling through the entire empire. Since then, there has been an uproar in all major worlds, various forces, countless fleets, sects, and planets.

Three days later, this shock wave shook the bridge of the flagship of the Deep Sea Fleet, Long Yuan, with a deadly silence, causing Li Linghai, the Queen of the Empire, to stare at the information on the light curtain, unable to utter a word for a long time.

"Why did this happen? It simply broke my entire plan, and immediately pushed our reformers to the cusp of the storm, on the verge of life and death!"

Li Linghai couldn't wait to burn a few holes in the light curtain, and then stared at Li Yao next to him for a while.

"It's really nothing to do with me."

Li Yao said innocently, after a pause, and said, "It wasn't your people? The purpose of this blood alliance sounds very similar to the revolutionary ideas!"

"Of course not. We weren't ready to completely break with the four major electoral families. How could we do such a serious matter as the assassination of an empire veteran!"

Li Linghai squinted his eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "The Blood League is a radical organization spontaneously established by young and middle-aged officers in the imperial frontline forces. There are now dozens of large worlds on the frontline, and there are many similar organizations. What is the "True Dragon Society", "Wan Ying "Ye", "Charge Club" and the like, as I said a few days ago, are the products of grass-roots young military officers who have no way out and feel the injustice and vent their anger at will.

"The Blood League is the most radical and extreme among many young officer organizations.

"It's not that I have never thought about incorporating these young officers' organizations and uniting them all.

"But things in the army have always been particularly sensitive. Young officers with swords, guns, and crystal armor starships in their hands will cause uncontrollable troubles when their heads become hot. Therefore, we have always been very careful about infiltration in the army. At most, I exchanged ideas with these young officers about "respecting the emperor and rebelling and reforming the empire". The statements are quite cryptic, but they have never been asked to organize such a destructive assassination operation!

"This is all right. An empire veteran is assassinated, and the whole Senate will be furious. Although this matter has nothing to do with us, under the thunder strike of the Senate, the blood alliance will certainly disappear, but other things It is inevitable that young officers' organizations and even our reformist forces will be affected. In the end, our cause will be dealt a heavy blow!

"The strategy we originally thought of, lurking minions, connecting secretly, and waiting for the time to come to the surface, is completely unworkable!"

Li Yao thought for a while: "This empire veteran Dongfang Tuo, is it so important?"

"Of course it's important!"

Li Linghai’s voice is full of ice, "He is a pivotal older generation figure in the Eastern family, and he is very influential in the financial, banking and economic circles of the Empire. It is also the president of the Empire Development Bank, the Empire Development Bank, who is responsible for this'Empire In the counterattack, 30% of the Expeditionary Army's military resources are operated. He is in the base camp of the Expeditionary Army to coordinate logistical affairs. Every day, astronomical amounts of funds and resources flow through his fingers. Is it important?

"However, the position of the head of the logistics department of the Expeditionary Force Base Camp is also a hot potato with hidden barbs. After so many years of coordinating the military supplies and logistics, there are many people who resent Dongfang Tuo."

Li Linghai explained it carefully, and Li Yao understood the truth.

This time, the true human empire has exhausted the nation's efforts to launch a counterattack against the Covenant Alliance. The fleets and battle groups that cover the galaxy overwhelmingly cover the sky and the military supplies consumed every day are naturally a terrifying figure.

With so many munitions and supplies, it is impossible to rely on a certain large world to supply, but all large worlds work together to support the army's frontline operations.

Here comes the question. Each world has different levels of fertility and barrenness, and has a different view of this war. It also has different confidence in how much benefit you can get after the war. How to collect enough resources from these large worlds , Is a very delicate art.

Honestly squeezing the resources of one's own great world and helping the empire win the war, it was not himself who had gained a lot of benefits-no realm master or warlord would be willing to do such a stupid thing.

"Lao Tzu's world has obviously taken out so many resources to supply to the front line, but the front line Lao Tzu's fleet is often unable to get supplies, so hungry that he has to lick the rust on the screws, and he has to take on the most difficult combat tasks; on the contrary, It is the troops directly under the four major electors’ families that eat red and fart every day—did I feed all the resources of Lao Tzu to these wine sacs and rice bags?"

Warlords and landlords from the outer world often have such complaints.

In all fairness, Dongfang Tuo may not have really done the matter of secretly supplying the four major elector family fleets with the resources of the outer world.

But every day there is an astronomical amount of military resources that need to be coordinated. It is really impossible to supply the world's fleet with the resources collected by which world-such a difficult thing.

What's more, for many warlords and landlords in the outer world, the facts are not important at all. They just want to use an extremely tough stand to gain some benefits for their fleet.

Although the empire is vast and rich, its resources are always limited, especially as the front line gets longer and longer, the distribution of the various fleets ahead becomes more and more stretched.

No matter how it is allocated, there is always a fleet that is dissatisfied, thinking that Dongfang Tuo's "logistics moth, munitions rat" deliberately aimed at himself and deeply resented this empire veteran.

Therefore, the truth of the "Blood League Event" is still hidden in the mist, it is unknown!
