Interstellar Soldier

Chapter 457
Both Tumont and Joyce were legion commanders, and they were inferior to Somme only because of their slightly lower qualifications.Although both of them participated in the Fifth Greenwich War 1000 years ago, at the end of the war, the two were still junior officers and were promoted to the commander of the army after the war.Like Som, both of them are loyal to Wanluo War Emperor. Not only can they not instigate rebellion, but they will not betray because of coercion.

They knew Carlson, knew that Carlson was the engineering commander of the Ninth Corps, and knew that Carlson and Som were old friends who had been in contact for more than 1000 years, so when Carlson came forward, they said that Som was negotiating with Fleet Commander Nathan The important thing is that after being unable to meet with them for the time being, the two did not become suspicious. They followed Carlson to the room dedicated to entertaining senior officers, and asked Carlson to tell Som to come see them when he was free.

However, after a few hours, the two couldn't wait anymore.

"Two, the meeting is not over yet, Commander Som is not free to see you now."

"Nonsense, are we looking for him just to chat? We also have important matters, so we need to see him now." Tumont had a bad temper, and after being chilled for several hours, he couldn't bear it any longer.If he was not facing Carlson, but a staff officer, he would have lost his temper.

"Commander Tumont, I have already told Commander Somme that he will come after the meeting, so please stay calm."

"No, we need to see him now." Joyce was relatively calm, and he had already seen the problem.

After a few hours, all the people who came to see them were Carlson. The staff officer of the headquarters did not show up, and neither of them saw anyone else.Besides, what meeting needs to last for several hours?If there was something important, Fleet Admiral Nathan would certainly not only discuss it with Som, but would call Tumont and Joyce.

"Commander Joyce, I said..."

"I know, you don't want to offend Som because of this matter, but we are not afraid." Joyce stepped forward, "We will go there now, and we will take care of what happens, and you don't need to be responsible."

"Yes, let's go find him. I don't believe that Som will get angry with us." Tumont also reacted, and rushed forward immediately, pushing away Carlson who was in front of him.

Obviously, in terms of strength, Carlson is definitely not an opponent of the two legion commanders, and he can't stop them at all.

At this moment, the door opened and a person walked in.

Seeing this person, Tumont and Joyce were taken aback, and their expressions froze immediately.Carlson looked back, secretly surprised.

"Why, the current legion commanders are so ignorant of the rules?"

"Your Highness, why are you here?" Carlson reacted very quickly, and immediately turned to greet him.

It was none other than Prince Arlington who entered.

Both Tumont and Joyce were veterans who participated in the Fifth Greenwich War. Although they were only small soldiers 1000 years ago, Prince Arlington was no stranger to them.Like Carrison, they always believed that Prince Arlington disappeared during the battle with the army of silicon ghosts.

"His Royal Highness."

"His Royal Highness."

Carlson's respectful appearance made Tumont and Joyce not dare to think too much, and immediately paid tribute to Arlington.

"Carlson, you didn't tell them?"

"Your Highness, this is a top secret, and only a few people know about it, so I... I didn't handle it well, please forgive me, Your Highness." Carlson lowered his head, as if he knew his mistake and corrected it.

"Okay, back off."

Carlson didn't dare to say anything more. Although he didn't know why Arlington came here, but with the prince present, the two army commanders didn't dare to make a fuss.

When Carlson left, Arlington walked over and sat down.

"Sit down, don't stand."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Joyce sat down first, and Tumont followed him.

"Obviously, you must be surprised to see me here." Arlington glanced at the two of them and said, "Carlson has already said that I am here as a top secret, and only a few people know about it. You know, it's just that you are clamoring to see Som, leaving me with no choice."

"Your Highness..."

"Som has left, and now I am in charge of the legion's combat operations."

Joyce was very puzzled, but he didn't show it.

"With His Highness here, we will obey His Highness's orders." Tumont was a little excited, but he did not lose his mind. "It's just that the purpose of His Highness coming here..."

"Your performance disappointed me and His Majesty." Arlington smiled coldly, and said with a serious face, "According to the plan, the barracks should be completed, but this is not the case now. The large troops are about to arrive, once A decisive military operation is about to begin, but the Legion has no place to stay. Who do you think is responsible for this? Som has paid the price for it, and the two of you..."

"Your Highness, Som has been responsible for the construction of the barracks, and Carlson..."

"Carlson did what he was supposed to do, and what about you?"

Joyce shut his mouth, and Tumont simply lowered his head.

"Don't blame me for not reminding you, you'd better think carefully now, how to explain to His Majesty that the barracks are not finished after seeing His Majesty."

"This……"

"Clearly, the casual questioning of orders given by the command speaks volumes."

Joyce was speechless, but Arlington was right.If they have any doubts about the orders issued by Som, the efficiency of the legion will inevitably be affected.According to Arlington, Som has been called back.If Som shifted the responsibility to the Seventh and Eighth Legions for not obeying the deployment and command when reporting to the Wanluo War Emperor, then Som would not be the only one facing the Thunder Wrath of the Wanluo War Emperor.

Thinking of this, both Joyce and Tumont broke into a cold sweat.

They were not afraid of Som, not even very worried about Nathan, but even if they were given a chance, they would not dare to face the wrathful War Emperor Wanluo.

Also, the sudden appearance of Prince Arlington also made Joyce and Tumont secretly startled.

Although there have long been rumors that the disappearance of Prince Arlington was related to the Emperor Wanluo, because at that time, Prince Arlington was the only member of the royal family who posed a serious threat to the Emperor Wanluo, but no one can deny that Prince Arlington was The uncle of the Wanluo War Emperor, a member of the prominent royal family, and the former God of War of the Leiling Clan.Not only was he alive, but he also came here after the outbreak of the Sixth Greenwich War, which is obviously extraordinary.

Joyce and Tumont had to believe that the sudden appearance of Prince Arlington must be related to the next combat operation.

More importantly, the actions of the Leiling Clan Legion here must be crucial, otherwise the Wanluo War Emperor would not have allowed Prince Arlington to come here to supervise the battle.

Thinking of this, Joyce and Tumont couldn't relax at all.

If this is the case, then the unfinished military camp is extremely important.Although the main person in charge is Som, the Seventh and Eighth Corps also participated in the construction.If Som is punished for this, then Joyce and Tumont will not be able to escape, and it will definitely not end well.

But, is this a foregone conclusion?

Joyce looked towards Prince Arlington, and seemed to see hope.

Although he has never worked under Prince Arlington, Joyce has long heard that Prince Arlington and Wanluo War Emperor are two completely different people.Back then, Prince Arlington led the guards to the North Fourth District to participate in the war. The soldiers under him served, not because he was very powerful, but because he was extremely protective of his weaknesses, and he valued the soldiers under him very much. He always thought of the soldiers under him. He worked hard.

"Your Highness, we have done our best in the construction of the barracks, and we have completed the construction of the barracks in accordance with the orders issued by the Fleet Command."

"that's it."

Joyce sighed secretly. Although Prince Arlington's tone was very cold, he didn't stop talking, which gave him a glimmer of hope.

Of course, to make Prince Arlington lenient, it is not enough to say a few words, but also to show something.

At this point, Carlson had returned to the command center.

When he saw Yang Yi, he realized that it was Yang Yi who asked Arlington to rescue Joyce and Tumont when he saw that he could not hold back Joyce and Tumont.

Although it was a bit hasty, it was much better than letting the two legion commanders rush out.

However, it is no longer the commanders of the two legions that deserve attention at this time.

The transport convoy has arrived and joined Nethan's fleet.A small fleet of one hundred transport ships has just entered the orbit of Slag Planet and is flying over here.According to the news sent by the Fleet Command, these are the ten legions that landed on Slag Star first, as well as the engineering troops who came to help.Although the barracks have been built to accommodate the entire regiment, much of the barracks' infrastructure remains unfinished.The engineering troops accompanying the large force brought a large amount of heavy engineering equipment, and planned to complete the construction of other infrastructure in five days.At that time, the other ninety legions will land on Slag Star and enter the already built barracks.

"Look, this is from the Fleet Command."

Carlson was already looking at it. It was an engineering plan to expand the barracks.

"These one hundred legions are just the vanguard." Carlson quickly browsed, and said, "According to this plan, the size of the barracks will be expanded, not only can accommodate more legions, but also will become a real forward base, Capable of supporting the Corps in conducting combat missions in the immediate area."

"Or go to the northern region."

Carlson nodded, and said: "Perhaps, the Wanluo War Emperor has ordered the mobilization of war, and more legions are being formed. If you send troops to the northern region and take the lead in the war, this force is far from enough. Of course , which is enough to prove that this barracks is extremely important."

"It seems that we have come to the right place." Shen Chengwen said beside him.

"Anyway, the big troops have arrived, let's start." Yang Yi let out a long breath and said, "Since this barracks is extremely important, it must not fall into the hands of the enemy no matter what. Old Shen, you arrange it. Carlson, Then it's up to you."

Both of them agreed and didn't say much.
