Him and their stars

As mentioned before, the "original" mission of the Thirteenth Fleet was to conduct exercises in the Luna system with a squadron of the Ninth Fleet.

Of course, as a result of the exercise, we encountered cults and pirates entering the country. As the responsibility of the community navy, it is reasonable to destroy the enemy on sight. In addition, if the war situation is unfavorable, isn't it also very reasonable for the far-coast fleet that came to exercise according to the original plan to provide reinforcements?

Of course, the commanders of the far shore fleet really did not expect that the newly formed small fleet, after destroying the cultists and defeating the pirates, would actually plunge into the nebula with such determination.

Lieutenant General Sylvester felt that this was indeed brave but a little bit stubborn. However, considering that the leader of the troops was his old captain, Commodore Marklov, he was a little relieved. That was a cautious and steady old sailor, and he should be able to calm down the fanatical young people before things got out of hand.

However, before that, he had ordered his fleet to be ready to respond in the Luna system.

Then, the Thirteenth Fleet, which was originally thought to be a head-on collision, came back like a bandit who successfully ransacked the landlord's house. They even had to drag and eat, and had fun.

After listening to Markloff's explanation of the situation, Vice Admiral Brandon Sylvester, commander of the Far Coast Defense Fleet and governor of the Far Coast Military Region, looked at the proud old general behind the holographic projection and was speechless for half a minute. minute.

Is the Empire behind all this? Well, this sounds reasonable, but it's not surprising.

The Empire built a fortress in the Far Shore Nebula? This sounds completely like a fantasy, and it feels like someone built a Yumen Pass on the pass of Tanggula Mountain during the cold weapon era. However, if I think about it more carefully, it seems to be quite consistent with the style of the empire. Lieutenant General Sylvester has dealt with the opponent too many times, and he knows very well what a group of arrogant, cruel and stubborn guys they are.

The Empire's fortress was demolished by the Thirteenth Fleet? this……

Lieutenant General Brandon Sylvester has been guarding the frontiers of the Far Coast Sector for ten years. He faces the imperial military pressure on the opposite side of the Nebula every day. He feels that he has experienced all kinds of storms and waves, and has received professional training. He feels that no matter what You will not be surprised by anything you encounter. But at this time, he still felt that the amount of information in this matter was too great, and he could not continue to think about it for a while.

If you can't think clearly, then don't think about it. Vice Admiral Sylvester simply gave up thinking and focused on the two giant ships that were towed back.

Those are the new warships of the empire that I have never seen before.

Use new ships to explore paths and build new ships under extreme conditions... This seems to be in line with the behavior of the Imperial devils.

He looked longingly at Commodore Marklov, the first captain when he served. Thirty years have passed, and I have changed from a rookie officer to a lieutenant general, while the other party was still an ordinary captain more than three months ago.

Time really flies as fast as a shuttle, which makes people sigh!

He showed a simple and honest smile, his fifty-year-old face, but his smile was full of the charm of his thirties: "So, old captain, as a new admiral, you must now learn to act from the perspective of a fleet commander. Think about the problem! Don’t be obsessed with aircraft carriers. The ship you got..."

"Don't even think about it!" Marklov said as if he was going to risk his life on anyone who dared to touch my ship.

"At my age, I don't have any hobbies except playing with aircraft carriers! I just work as a nanny and play with aircraft carriers, so I can spend my old age peacefully!" Marklov thought for a while, and then said: "Then again Well, the new sublight speed interceptor aircraft released by the Griffin Factory, I heard that the first batch has been assigned to three or four brigades of your fleet. Why don't you lend me a few for experimental training first."

"Old guy, don't even think about it!" Lieutenant General Sylvester was furious. He was about to fight the opponent for three hundred rounds, but at this time, both of them received a reminder from the adjutant. Subsequently, the holographic projection of a third person was inserted into the communication channel. It was an old man with completely white hair and a face full of wrinkles, but his body was still tall and strong, as if he were a strong man. However, he was the one who had just taken office. Marshal Norm Paris, Chief of Military Command.

Did it reach the earth so quickly? Lieutenant General Sylvester looked at Marshal Paris and then at Brigadier General Marklov, saluting with the latter while thinking deeply.

"Let's get straight to the point." The marshal responded with a hasty military salute and got straight to the point: "Steve, what's the current situation in the Far Coast Nebula and Luna Galaxy?"

You two old guys really have some kind of deal! Vice Admiral Sylvester rolled his eyes inwardly, knowing that his new ship was indeed a rare one.

Commodore Marklov, who was born as an aircraft carrier operator, is indeed far inferior to the officers of the "elite bureaucratic group" who are highly educated and eloquent, at least in terms of eloquence. He used slightly long-winded words, and it took him more than ten minutes to finally explain in general what happened during this period.

During this period, Sylvester felt a little anxious several times. If he hadn't been just a bystander from beginning to end, he would have wanted to add explanations for him.

Fortunately, Marshal Paris was not impatient at all. He calmly listened to the Brigadier General's words, pondered for a moment, and then couldn't help showing a troubled expression: "Ha... I originally just thought about taking this opportunity to take advantage of Lu. The Mina rebels were wiped out in one fell swoop. If it can teach the pirates of the Far Shore Nebula a lesson, it would be a surprise. But I really didn’t expect that this surprise would be so unexpected! The bandits were suppressed and they directly fought against the imperial army. ...Bran, your Ninth Fleet is the first line of defense that directly faces the empire. But have you ever had this experience in more than ten years? Not with second-class lackeys like Bakvi Birdman and Angang Monkey, but with And the Imperial Army?”

"Never." Lieutenant General Sylvester smiled bitterly. The Star Gap of Earl I and the Lucknar Corridor that he was guarding were not suitable star areas for large fleets to fight. Although they faced the empire's sphere of influence, there were small-scale border conflicts every year, but there were also serious gunshots. Less than one.

How could the empire personally come forward in such a small scene? Not to mention the empire, even the Bakvi bird people, who were better at shipping and trading than Fela, did not end up.

So far, the far-shore defense fleet commanded by Vice Admiral Sylvester has beaten the red monkeys of the Principality of Ammans and the giant moles of the United Elder Kingdom of Embu, but there are no birdmen, let alone the pretentious empire. people.

Thinking of this, the lieutenant general couldn't help but look at his old captain with an expression of envy and jealousy.

"Very good, very energetic." Marshal Paris suddenly smiled.

The lieutenant general was stunned for a moment, thinking that I didn't speak, and then realized that the marshal should be talking about himself.

"I'm talking about the look in your eyes." The marshal smiled and explained: "After you heard that we had a conflict with the empire, your first reaction was not worry, but envy. In this regard, you are different from most of your classmates. They are completely different, but they are very similar to your junior classmates."

Therefore, I am also the least popular among my classmates. Of course, he is also the only one who has become the commander of the first-line main fleet. Lieutenant General Sylvester didn't know whether he should smile bitterly or be complacent.

Brigadier General Marklov smiled at this time: "Looking at you, have we gone too far?"

"Anyway, neither the empire nor us will admit that we fought in the nebula on the far coast. Even if we report it to the outside world, they will only say that you wiped out a pirate nest in the nebula." The marshal smiled: "And , This really proves what that kid said..."

That boy? The two generals were puzzled.

"Your juniors are the most outstanding figures this year." Marshal Paris said to Lieutenant General: "He told me that there may be loopholes in the defense line of the far coast sector. In this way, I can have a reason Convince the Congress to replenish the combat power of the far coast fleet."

Lieutenant General Sylvester was overjoyed, but he heard the marshal say again: "I will try my best to persuade the parliament and the military committee to add at least ten new heavy cruisers to this place. According to that guy's opinion, These new ships should form a cruise fleet to patrol and monitor the border star area. It is up to you and your staff to discuss the specific cruise route. Anyway, now we also have the star map of the Far Coast Nebula. Haha. , Steve, based on this alone, all of you in the Thirteenth Fleet deserve a medal."

Lieutenant General Sylvester reconsidered. Any admiral would be pleased to know how many new ships he has, and of course he would not care about the rest of the details.

Marshal Paris paused for a moment and then said: "In addition, we should build two more fortresses in the Luna system and the Bedo 12 system, equipped with high-power gravity well jamming devices. In this way, the defense of the far coast star area It should be much more stable.”

The old marshal was truly worthy of being a lifelong military general. He just glanced at the star map and saw the biggest loophole in the border area of ​​the star sector, so he quickly came up with a solution.

Lieutenant General Sylvester was even happier. As the number of fortresses increases, the number of troops under him will naturally increase. Which general would be unhappy?

However, in the final analysis, the solution given by the marshal still costs money. To spend money, it must go through the National Defense Committee and Parliament.

However, Marshal Paris is different from his predecessor, Marshal Aylwin. He has a more rigid and serious military style, and he does not seem to be the type who is good at wrangling with bureaucrats and politicians.

"It doesn't matter, Chairman Nicita will be on my side." Marshal Paris said.

The two generals immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Indeed, everyone sees the various measures taken by Chairman Keith Nichta to strongly support the military. What's more, after the Navy Day incident, President Maria Merson who came to power was just a transitional figure with little prestige and no skills, and it was even less possible to have any checks and balances on the Chairman of the National Defense Commission.

In addition, the chairman's own party, the Alternative for Nationality, is the third largest party in parliament, but he has a wife who was born into a wealthy family in the alliance. Therefore, the largest party in Congress, the pro-alliance Blue Star political ally, became his potential political ally. In a sense, Congress will not be a shackles to him.

As a result, Keith Nichta was strengthening the community's military power in an almost arrogant manner. Of course, his prestige in the military and among ordinary people has naturally increased.

Many people are looking forward to next year's general election. Everyone believes that after so many years of literati and bureaucratic leadership in Nanshan, it is time for the community to have an energetic and determined leader.

"Have we encountered a good time?" Lieutenant General Sylvester sighed with satisfaction.

No, if these things are created but never used, that would be the best time! Marklov thought.

However, before the old man could say any more sad words, another older man in the communication channel said directly: "Steve, take your fleet back to Gibraltar as soon as possible, and dispatch the most elite personnel from the Intelligence Department and the Armament Department. Our manpower will be waiting for you there. By the way, I will rush there as soon as possible!"

Marklov immediately had a grimace on his face at a speed that was visible to the naked eye: "You, you are so unfair! According to the regulations of the navies of various countries, whoever seizes it should belong to whom..."

"Those are unspoken rules, not regulations!" Marshal Paris said coldly. Seeing that the other party once again showed that I will fight anyone who dares to touch my ship, he added: "Don't worry, it will take two or three months." , I have figured out the empire’s shipbuilding ideas and the application concepts of some new technologies, let’s talk about it then.”

"What? What do you mean we will talk again? You can give me an accurate answer on this matter right now! Moreover, as for those rubbish in the Equipment and Technology Department, can you get through it in two or three months? Your Excellency, minister, old leader, let's talk about it again Talk. Let me talk to you..."

At the same time, on the Corsica, Yu Lian also connected to the instant communication of seismic waves that reached directly to the earth. The person on the call was his theoretical direct boss, Major General Azisha Mallowan, the commander of the Blue Guard.

"This is the list of all the secret agents of the All Souls Church in the army. In the Blue Guard, the secret agent is Major John Fryer. You can use him as a breakthrough point to conduct a general sweep of the Community Guard." Yu Liandao.

"...It's really nerve-wracking! Although Major Fryer is not a combat-oriented talent, he is one of the rare people in this gang who has some administrative ability. I am also planning to promote him to be a logistics director or a foreign affairs director or something like that." Ma. Major General Luo Wen showed a troubled expression.

"Don't you think that this type of person is more suitable to be a spy?" Yu Liandao said.

"Yeah, that's why it's so nerve-wracking!"

However, there is something even more troublesome. When Yu Lian revealed the existence of the World Serpent, the opponent's right eye suddenly twitched uncontrollably.

The major general quickly covered his right eye: "...In other words, behind the Wanling Sect is the World-Wide Snake!"

"It seems that you are not unfamiliar with this name." Yu Liandao.

"Not only that, we have also fought against each other several times. Thanks to them, I have changed teammates several times! Tsk, but, I have not killed any of their members until now, and I don't even know their true identities." Major General Mallowan gritted his teeth, even with a little hysteria of impotent rage.

Fortunately, the eldest sister calmed down quickly: "The World Serpent is the most mysterious and terrifying terrorist organization in the universe. All intelligence departments in the universe will be eager to find clues about them. Based on this, we This time I showed my face in front of the whole universe. Thank you, Captain!"

"You are too polite, Your Excellency. This is my duty. In other words, it is precisely because of the wise leadership of my childhood idol like you that my work efficiency is so high!"

Major General Mallowan looked at Yu Lian seriously, and was just about to say "tsk tsk tsk" a few times to ridicule, "A guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes like you can actually flatter me", but he heard the other party say again: "In addition, the official Jianshe , the information about the Krait can be shared with other countries without reservation. We can even take the opportunity to exchange some information from the Guerrilla Association and the Astral Knights."

Major General Mallowan looked at Yu Lian seriously again and nodded thoughtfully.

"I will consider it, but when it comes to the Astral Knights, I think of happy things." Major General Mallowan smiled: "I still have to thank you for this! Yu Lian."

There is only this update today...

There was nothing wrong with the nucleic acid test. I finally didn’t get infected, but I was a bit tangled up in having to wait four hours in the hospital. In short, it is just a common cold, not even a viral cold... However, the cold caused me to have a fever of 39 degrees, which is a bit scary. Am I really getting old?

Anyway, I took some antipyretic medicine yesterday and I don’t have a fever today. I’m finally not feeling weak and cold, and I still feel pain everywhere. Of course, now I’m starting to have a sore throat, it’s really a normal process!
