Star Sea Hunter

Celestial Mercury Star Domain.

The capital of the star field is located in a small star system with two administrative planets, and the headquarters of the local garrison is located on a nearby waste resource planet, only a few hundred light seconds away from the capital planet.

Since this place is near the main channel of the empire's cvf-9607, its strategic location is relatively important, so the scale of this military region is relatively large. There are about [-] warships guarding the base at ordinary times, and nearly a thousand people with supernatural abilities.The size of the fleet patrolling outside the country all year round is around [-] ships.

However, at this time, the entire base was already under martial law, and more than [-] elite warships came from nowhere, surrounded the planet, and confronted tensely with the [-] warships in the planet's atmosphere. If you don't agree, you will fight!

The battleships outside did not have any identification marks on their bodies, so it was impossible to determine where they came from.The battleships in the inner layer are all engraved with the unique hexagonal silver dragon pattern of the royal family, indicating that they are all belonging to the emperor's imperial guards.

Inside the base, in the living room of a senior officer's villa, Marshal Gurungs stared angrily at the general-level officers in front of him, and said with a slight sneer:

"You guys are quite courageous, and the masters behind you are lawless people! You dare to hijack the Marshal of the Empire to plot wrongdoing, aren't you afraid of being wiped out after the incident?"

The leading major general named Lin Yingfeng was the commander of the Tianshui Starfield Garrison. Hearing the marshal's reprimand, he hesitated for a moment, then insisted:

"Why should the marshal get angry? I'm just following orders! As long as the marshal doesn't leave the base, no matter what the request is, I will do my best to meet it! I hope you don't make it difficult for me."

Gu Longsi squinted his eyes and looked at him for a few seconds, and said sarcastically: "It seems that the master behind you is very calm! Since he is planning to make trouble and refuses to kill me immediately, is he still planning to recruit me?" No?"

A look of joy flashed in Lin Yingfeng's eyes, and he immediately said: "Your Excellency the Marshal is the elder of the Five Dynasties, the pillar of the empire, if you can cooperate with us, when the world is settled, a title of hereditary prince will be indispensable! In addition, you will get the title of imperial prince." The positions of Minister of Military Affairs and Director of the Imperial Army are entrusted to [-] star fields, and the various treatment and privileges can be compared to the future princes of the royal family! Of course, if you have other requirements, you may wish to put them forward together, as long as you can do it We will all agree!"

"Really? The price is quite good!" Gu Longsi leaned back on the sofa lazily, "In order to buy me, an old man, your master really spared no expense! Well, let me listen, your master Where exactly is it sacred?"

"This..." Lin Yingfeng hesitated for a moment, then said:

"If Marshal agrees to cooperate now, then please sign the alliance letter and make a public statement. After that, my master will come to greet Marshal in person! Discuss the plan with you!"

Gu Longsi shook his head, and sighed with some disappointment: "After all, your master may have a lot of power at hand, but he still doesn't have enough confidence! He has refused to reveal his identity until now, maybe he still plans to Leave yourself a way out?"

Lin Yingfeng said with a bit of embarrassment: "I'm sorry, Marshal, this is my master's order, and I can't make the decision, so..."

"Then there's nothing to talk about!" Gu Longsi waved his hand and said, "A guy who doesn't even dare to reveal his name wants me to swear an oath of allegiance? Don't you think it's ridiculous? Could it be that he is recruiting other people? Is it always like this when you talk about it? I am afraid that few people are willing to seek refuge without knowing why?"

"Okay! Since you don't want to now, you don't have to force it." Lin Yingfeng said calmly, "I will tell you exactly what you think. As for now, Marshal please rest at ease!"

After finishing speaking, he gave a military salute, turned around and left the door with a group of subordinates.

After the gang of eyes-obscuring guys left, Gurungs lightly pressed a hidden button under the table, and a school-level officer turned out from behind the screen.

"Your Excellency, Marshal, our people have already figured out the size of the opponent's force!" The officer said after saluting, "There are a total of [-] warships in outer space, all of which are the latest 'Kun' class, but the various signs on the ship It has been erased, so it is impossible to tell which legion you belong to! Of course, with the combat power of our fleet, it should not be difficult to escort you out!"

"Even if we can rush out, the casualties will definitely not be small?" Gu Longsi said with a wry smile.

"For the Marshal, for the empire! We are not afraid of sacrifice!" The officer said solemnly, "The situation in the imperial capital is unknown, and those rogue officials and thieves are trying to take advantage of His Majesty's entrapment to usurp the throne. Marshal, you must rush back to sit in the town immediately to deter those young people. generation!"

Gu Longsi seemed a little moved, thought for a moment, and rejected her opinion:

"No, even if we can break through the blockade and leave the Tianshui star field, we are still thousands of light-years away from the imperial capital. Since the opponent has already started to act, they will never give up easily. Since they dare to attack His Majesty's palace, we The interceptions encountered along the way will definitely not be less! It is impossible to return to the imperial capital safely with our strength, so forget it, I don’t want the children’s sacrifices to become meaningless!”

"Then what should we do now?" The officer asked anxiously, "Could it be that we are wasting our time here? Aren't those guys getting more and more lawless in the imperial capital?"

"No, they won't succeed!" Gurungs said slowly, "Unless all the legions of the empire have betrayed His Majesty, their final end is the guillotine!"

"As for us, it's okay to just rest here for a few days, let's see what tricks their master can come up with!"

……

The imperial capital, the fifth planet, a magnificent mansion somewhere.

In the secret room, a slender figure stood quietly in front of a hyperspace communicator. After listening to his subordinate's report, he was silent for a moment, and then said leisurely:

"I see, let's just leave it like this for now, don't embarrass him! After a while, he will naturally change his mind!"

After speaking, he turned off the communicator, turned around and sat down on the sofa again.

There are already more than ten people waiting in the room, nearly half of them are soldiers, and their shoulders are full of general stars, and two of them have three huge ruby ​​general stars on their epaulets!

Seeing him sitting down, a middle-aged man on the left who was closest to him asked, "Your Excellency, is the marshal unwilling to cooperate?"

"Yes!" He sighed softly, "Not only this one, but even Su Shangqing replied in the same way, and some of the rest either directly refused, or evaded, evaded and delayed, and were willing to make a clear statement Very little!"

The middle-aged man analyzed: "They are unwilling to express their opinion immediately, and they still want to wait and see for a while? After all, they don't even know our origin, nor our strength, so naturally they won't take refuge easily!"

He nodded and said: "Yes, the current situation is unclear. Many people and forces do not believe that the empire may change in the future, so even if they have an idea, they cannot take action immediately. Even if they really want to change course, You have to pick the one that is the easiest to get things done, and you have to guarantee enough benefits in return! This is human nature, nothing surprising!"

"But the status and influence of these two people are too important," the middle-aged man frowned, "If we can bring them over as soon as possible, our plan will go much smoother, so, I think you can consider telling them in advance What the hell! Gu Longsi is old, cunning, and extremely shrewd, let’s not mention him for now, but Su Shangqing should be easier to be persuaded by you."

"This...does make some sense!" He pondered, "Okay! Let me think about this again. Now let's see where His Majesty's palace is."

The optical brain on the coffee table was turned on silently, and a stereoscopic projection star map appeared in front of everyone.

In the star map, nearly a million warships surrounded by an asteroid with a diameter of [-] kilometers have just passed through a wormhole, then readjusted into a marching formation in the void, and then continued to rush to the next wormhole at high speed. The whole process was orderly , crisp and neat, not at all sloppy, fully demonstrating the excellent qualities of the most elite army in the empire!

Of course, due to the observation distance being too far away, the image was not very clear, but it was enough for those present to see the state of the legion.

The general sitting first on the right got up and explained: "This is the image sent back by our eyeliner two hours ago. His Majesty's palace has passed through the entire southern border area and entered the territory of the Empire's mainland. , it is estimated that it will reach the vicinity of the Tianhua Starfield in at most two weeks."

The middle-aged man's face was a bit solemn: "It seems that the second and third interceptions we arranged didn't have much effect at all! The other party didn't even say that they were delayed, and even the casualties weren't serious. The first interception Forget it, in the next two times, the fleet we dispatched can be regarded as the elite division of the empire, could it be that the performance in front of the imperial guards is so unbearable?"

An admiral sighed: "Your Excellency, our fleet is indeed an elite fleet, but whether it can exert its due strength depends on the specific situation! His Majesty's legion is commanded by Yang Wentao, and there is also the destruction of the Death Starship." With the main cannon as the backing, aren’t our interstellar fortresses delivering food to others?”

"As for the specific situation of these interceptions, everyone has already understood, so I don't need to repeat it? So I think we can't make such mistakes again. We must save our strength and wait until the critical moment to start an incident instead of doing it like this now. , wasting a large amount of troops needlessly on the road!"

Everyone knew what he was referring to. Although the generals in charge of these fleets had already pledged their allegiance to their leaders and were willing to take great risks to besiege His Majesty's palace, but the large number of mid- and lower-level officers may not all follow them blindly. Yes, every time the two sides engage in battle, Yang Wentao will use the super-powerful electronic warfare system on the Death Star ship to block all signals from the opponent's command center, and then launch a propaganda offensive against the battleships below, persuading them to abandon their dark side and turn to the bright side!

Due to the high prestige of His Majesty the Emperor in the Imperial Legion, the effect of this approach is quite significant. Even if those warships will not immediately turn against each other, they will become hesitant to attack the palace. With Yang Wentao's ability, the outcome of the battle is natural Needless to say.

This is the bad consequence of a hasty uprising!Although the leader has a different ambition for a long time, and is secretly operating, buying and wooing the court officials, as well as many senior generals, but after all, he has to be cautious about the eyes and ears of the empire's intelligence system, and dare not be too impatient in everything, so as not to make too much noise and be watched superior.It is impossible to cultivate too many fleets that are blindly obedient to themselves from top to bottom.

The young leader was silent for a long while, and finally said: "Everyone, our action is indeed too hasty! But there is no way to do it. Our family is not the only one staring at that position. If we don't act as soon as possible, it is inevitable that others will get there first." Already!"

"His Royal Highness is already starting to do it, not to mention the Xiao family. After all, the little princess is the genuine first-in-line heir, and has an orthodox status advantage. If she ascends the throne, many officials in the court will not object! We Although the current advantage is large enough, it is still very difficult to suppress these two, plus some other forces!"

"So I propose, let's stop thinking about the palace, and leave this headache to them! I think they are less willing than us to see His Majesty return to the imperial capital, so they will definitely do it with all their strength. !"

This proposal was reasonable, and everyone immediately approved it unanimously.

……

In the harem, Luo Qingyue and Zhong Suying were sitting opposite each other.

I haven't seen her for several months, and her abdomen is getting more and more bulging. It is less than a month before the due date of delivery. It stands to reason that she should rest in peace, but the situation in the imperial capital is complicated and inexplicable, and drastic changes may happen at any time, so she has to hold on Continue to perform your duties.

"Sister, those guys are getting more and more crazy!" Luo Qingyue gently stroked her stomach, trying to suppress the anger in her heart:

"It's only been a few days! His Majesty's palace has been besieged several times, and those guys clearly don't plan to let His Majesty return to the imperial capital!"

"The temptation of the highest power is enough to make anyone lose their minds and become insane!" Zhong Yuying sighed helplessly, "Let's just talk about my elder brother! Isn't he just moving around now? He even asked me to come here yesterday , asked me to use the imperial guards in my hand to help him, but I scolded him back! But with his temperament, it is absolutely impossible to give up just like that!"

"Then what should we do now?" Luo Qingyue gritted her teeth, "It will take at least two weeks for the palace to arrive at the imperial capital. There is also considerable damage, I am afraid it will not last that long!"

Zhong Xingying bit her lower lip, and a flash of determination flashed in her eyes: "In that case, I'll go and gather the fleet to set off immediately to meet Your Majesty!"
