Him and their stars.

Chapter 733 New Continent Army Chief

The following period of time can be described as calm and harmonious.The imperial warships accompanying the Scarlet Throne actually began to withdraw, leaving only one special medical ship and three destroyers in the end, ensuring safe navigation in the lowest state.

Later, before the Scarlet Throne arrived at the Gate of Glory, an engineering ship from the Empire even flew over to install two more shield generators on the Throne, saying that it was for the "joint reconnaissance team of the two countries" some insignificant benefits. Small support and so on.

From this perspective, Admiral Farrell is really a fastidious person.

"Feifei, no one in this world is a fool!" Yu Lian said.

He had to admit that Admiral Farrell's actions were indeed a bit beyond his expectations.When the old man did this, he characterized the matter as a joint investigation operation between the empire and the community, which gave both parties a step forward.It will not let the two countries tear their skins apart because of King Suliuka's little willfulness.

The community is afraid that its tiger skin will be punctured, so why is the empire not afraid that the community will completely fall to the alliance?
In addition, since it is a joint investigation operation between the two countries, the empire can send representatives to board the Throne.Of course, Yu Lian could completely refuse.However, if he really planned to pass through the Gate of Glory, no matter what he planned to do, Shibi would pass through the empire's colony.In this way, having someone familiar with the local conditions on board will indeed save a lot of trouble.

In the subsequent operations in the New World, no matter what Yu Lian did with the Marauder warship, there was always a contribution from the Empire.

However, Yu Lian also had to accept this love.He is actually taking a risk now, betting that the empire will not turn the tables.However, the Tiriro people are a nation with a flexible moral bottom line, and there is no precedent for turning the table in history.Now, the other party has given out the conditions.If you are still unwilling to accept it, you must be prepared to bear uncontrollable consequences.

"One more point." Feifei analyzed: "Yu'er, you are an active military officer of the community. It is said that it is a so-called joint operation, but it has not been approved by the superior. In the eyes of the princes of the earth, this at least proves that , you are not a well-behaved boy."

Big people like capable children, but they must prefer well-behaved children.

"It's putting nails between you and the real power in the community. Even if smart people don't get fooled immediately, they will have discord. Fish, the power people just need to sit in that high chair and have a little bit of heart Doubts will gradually turn into real wariness over time." Feifei spread her hands: "Fish, what if you are suppressed in the community? What if you can't stand it anymore? What if you can't even bear What about the injustice of Bai Zhi?"

"General Yue, the wing of the sky!" Yu Lian was stunned, and even sighed.

"What is that?" Feifei was taken aback.

"Uh, some imperial-style secondary school descriptions." Yu Lian shrugged, but felt inexplicably proud: "Hehe, it's not like he has thought of a way to deal with it in such a short time, and has hidden several layers of meaning. Admiral Farrell's handwriting. It looks like Miss Ostana."

Feifei tilted her head and thought for a while before recalling the lady chief of staff "wearing" a smiling mask.This female general of the empire, who looks like a literary young woman, does not have much fame at present, but is regarded as one of the accessories of King Suliuka, but I don't know why Yu Lian values ​​her so much.

"You can also refuse." Feifei smiled.

"Why bother? Since the empire is so concerned about integrity, it means that it is not ready to play hooligans for a while. If this is the case, then let's do it openly." Yu Lian held his chin and thought for a while: "Besides, this is not good for us either. There's no benefit at all."

For example, isn't the two shields that were just turned on one of the benefits?
Ever since, Yu Lian completely put the matter aside, and began to make the final statistics for the refugees on board.

There were a total of 537 civilians on board. When they were first liberated, most of them were in a state of extreme malnutrition, and a few were already endangered.Fortunately, after this period of recuperation, everyone's physical condition has recovered a lot.Even those poor people who were on the verge of death were brought back by Yu Lian with the "touch of life".

The refugees all sighed.When they fell into the hands of the predators for the second time, they never thought that there would be a time to see the sun again. They never thought that there would still be a savior riding a giant dragon soaring down into the sky.

In addition, some refugees said that even if they were rescued by the regular fleet of the empire or the alliance, they would never have the treatment during this period of time.Not to mention that the psyker will personally save people.

Yu Lian had nothing to say for a while.When conditions permit, soldiers should try their best to rescue innocent civilians. This should be the basic ethics of the army... No, even if conditions are not allowed, conditions should be created.However, in this universe, everyone does not think so.

Thinking about it carefully, even on the earth in his previous life, such an army has always been unique.

The refugees were indeed very moved, but the vast majority of civilians still wanted to disembark at the Gate of Glory.After all, they have endured too much suffering, and they really want to return to a normal life.Yu Lian expressed his blessings to them, gave each of them [-] Faith Stars, and told them that this was the reward they deserved for working on the ship during this period.

However, Yu Lian's approach was not without effect.There are still more than fifty people willing to stay on the ship.Most of them have experience in sailing and engineering. During this time, they got along very happily with Yu Lian, and now they are all homeless and alone all their lives.Even when I got off the boat, I didn't know where I was going.

"I thought that "Investigator of the Million Golden Dragon" was just a half-truth and half-false legend, but I didn't expect that there would be so many real examples." Feifei said.

"Actually, happy people have similar happiness, but as long as it is a tragedy created by the times, miserable people must also have similar pain." Yu Lian said.

However, these refugees who wanted to become official crew members did not feel pain at all. On the contrary, they were full of expectations for the future. They even invited a representative to come to discuss the labor contract with Yu Lian with great interest.

"If you really want to stay, you may have to change your community nationality and get a military rank in a few months." Yu Lian said to their representative.

"Well, of course some people will be willing. Especially those gentlemen who were born on the earth. However, more people may still want to be treated as mercenaries. After all, we value you and are willing to obey It is you, not the government of the community," said the representative.

Yu Lian nodded, and directly took out a prepared standard contract from under the desk in the captain's room, and asked the representative to take it back and copy it for signature.

Before the other party was ready to leave with satisfaction, Yu Lian asked again: "They are homeless and want to find a way out. But what about you? Dr. Xie. You are a nobleman, and now you are regarded as an empire A hero, and not without a family."

In order to commend Dr. Xie Yiwei for leading a large group of refugees to escape from the clutches of the predators, the Academy of Heraldry of the Empire has prepared to award him the Order of the Imperial Sapphire Knight.In this way, his title of "Third Class Servant Knight" has been upgraded to "Second Class Lord Sir", and he can be called "Sir".Still, apparently, he prefers to be called "Doctor."

The former meritorious designer of the Hand of Glory shipyard, he obviously would receive the highest courtesy when he returned to his hometown, and enjoy a happy old age full of glory and admiration as a hero, but he was willing to stay on the Scarlet Throne.

"The nephews are actually not bad, at least not the type who are eagerly waiting for my death to get a windy inheritance. And I don't have any inheritance at all." Dr. Xie laughed: "But, last time I was robbed When they were kidnapped, the oldest of them was only ten years old, so there really can't be any deep feelings. Why bother to go back and trouble them?"

Yu Lian reckoned that Dr. Xie's nephews were planning to serve him as a leader.

"Besides, the Academy of Arms notified me just now that I have returned to active duty. I will be stationed on this ship as one of the representatives of the imperial side for this joint investigation operation." Dr. Xie added.

As the former meritorious designer of the Hand of Glory, the doctor also has a reserve colonel rank.

This is another situation that Yu Lian did not expect.He originally thought that the empire would at least forcefully drag two star knights from some corner to board the ship, but he didn't expect Dr. Xie to be on top.

Is it because the other party really can't find a star knight who can step up to him for a while, or is the empire more particular than Yu Lian thought?
But in any case, this joint operation that has been "authorized" by the two countries, at least in the initial stage of the operation, is proceeding in an orderly manner.Both parties in the operation have no hostility towards their opponents, and are basically still in a normal stage.

The Scarlet Throne stopped at the No. 12 space starport outside the Gate of Glory, waiting for all the civilians who wanted to disembark to leave, and completed the handover with the people from the Imperial Entry Administration.

This process will last about six hours.

During this period, the empire will also deliver a batch of supplies and conduct a second round of maintenance on the hull.

Under the supervision of the friends, the engineers of the empire repaired the interior of the hull, replaced a new isolation compartment, installed two spare power furnaces, and sent replaceable star batteries.

Several semi-automatic engineering ships, under the driver's operation, waved their flexible mechanical arms, laying an additional layer of emerald steel alloy armor on the key positions of the hull.

As a result, the blood bar of the Scarlet Throne grew again.

Of course, overhaul is absolutely impossible.On the one hand, it is too late, and if it is really repaired, won't it change from a "special reconnaissance ship" to a fearless ship?Wouldn't that really violate the "New Continental Arms Limitation Treaty"?
As for the representatives of the empire, they should use this time to come as soon as possible.

While waiting, Yu Lian received a communication request again.This time, it's from within the country.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he was even more relieved when he saw the identity of the person who came.

"Teacher Yang, I haven't seen you for a while, you really... have become more immortal!"

The source of the communication is Yu Lian's military history teacher when he was a military student, and now he has been promoted to the deputy chief of staff of the Outer Ring Fleet, Brigadier General Yang Xiyi.

He said angrily, "You want to say that I've lost weight again, don't you?"

"The student just remembers that you said last time that you wanted to put on weight. This way you will look like a housewife, and the success rate of applying for retirement will be higher. But now..."

"Isn't that also thanks to some unscrupulous student? Ever since you went to the empire to become a military attache, the underground world has become a mess! The intelligence and security department has to deal with various rampages of the empire every day, the police department All the vacations have been canceled, and there have been shootings even in the Eternal City of the Earth! Do you think I have gained weight?"

Indeed, since the incident in the Feilin laboratory, the all-out war between the empire and the snake has actually begun.The assassination of King Slein can even be regarded as an attack on the empire by snakes.

Of course, Yu Lian reckoned that if in the mainland of the empire, the snake, the mysterious No. [-] behind-the-scenes villain organization, could never be the opponent of the empire, and it should have completely retreated.The death of King Slein should only be a small probability event.

However, outside of the mainland of the empire, it is really not clear, especially when the foreign government will definitely pull sideways.

In this situation, the underground war between the empire and the snake might really turn into a tug of war.

Of course, it is a matter of celebration for the entire galaxy to suffer a little loss for the empire, but we must know that the intelligence agencies will definitely have various py relationships with various black (meow) organizations, and more Not to mention the mysterious villain behind the scenes like the snake.Once the fight becomes fierce, the two sides will definitely make friends and make friends forever.The security situation will also be affected to some extent.

You're saying this as if it's all because of me.

Well, even before the will of the big universe, I can only admit that I lost the first little spark.But to make things worse, isn't it all because you have ghosts in your heart?
"Even if it wasn't caused by you, it must have something to do with your luck! To put it bluntly, isn't it because you became a broom star?" He rolled his eyes, then forced a smile, raised the black teacup in his hand to Yu Lian Ask: "How is it? How does it feel to drink coffee surrounded by a swarm of Imperial warships?"

"I can only say, be a real man!" Yu Lian also raised his coffee cup in return.

"Hehe, the young man is indeed full of anger!" Yang Xiyi laughed and said, "I hope you can catch the more angry situation."

He pondered for a while, and then said: "The empire has notified the Earth side about the so-called joint investigation operation."

It's so fast!Yu Lian thought.However, given the nature of those Tiriello people, it was strange to be unhappy.

"I guess you're not interested in the reaction of the big shots above, and you don't want to know. I'll just say the conclusion."

Yu Lian thought to himself that I'm still very interested, as long as you can do a little bit of artistic processing.

"In principle, the National Defense Committee has pinched its nose and acquiesced to this. Of course, it has also acquiesced to your credit. It is estimated that there will be another medal of the sword soon. In addition, as a psychic with the four rings, you really have a role to play." A general star is also added. However, you have only been a colonel for less than half a year, and further promotion is considered a special promotion, which needs to be approved by the Congress. You know, once it involves that damn place, it will always take Some time."

Yu Lian felt that the description of "pinching his nose" was very expressive, and it could very clearly show the struggle and twisting of the princes on the other side of the earth.

"Of course, in principle, the predator's dreadnought ship is also a reconnaissance ship, and it cannot be incorporated into our fleet sequence. As for you, the earth has also agreed in principle to you as the commander of this joint reconnaissance operation. Hehe, Yu Lian, how does it feel to lead an actual combat army for the first time, but not your own country's army?" Yang Xiyi smiled.

"It's okay, I'm familiar with it!" Yu Lian also smiled.

Speaking of this, Yang Xiyi restrained his smile, and hid his helplessness in his eyes with a seriousness that was not suitable for him: "According to the decision of the National Defense Commission and the Military Command Headquarters, before the "New Continental Armament Restriction Treaty" has not been completely abolished, our side The main fleet cannot go directly to the New World for support. Then, one person is needed to urgently unify the military and political forces of all the colonies in the New World, and organize defenses on the spot, so as not to let the looters and other guys take advantage of the loopholes."

"So you are the unlucky ... new military and political chief?" Yu Lian's sympathy suddenly arose spontaneously.

"Yes, being a teacher is that unlucky guy! Probably because I knew I would be blamed, so I was promoted to a level." Yang Xiyi showed an expression that was about to break, and pointed to the extra one on the collar badge Jiang Xing: "The only consolation is that I am not the only one who is unlucky!"

Speaking of this, he showed a malicious smile that was obvious, and said, "Yu Lian, do you think Papa Paris will let you go?"
