Interstellar Soldier

Chapter 95

Before dawn, Yang Yi, Lin Feng, Jackson, Justin, No. 11 and NO.[-] left Dwenk City.

Because he was worried about being attacked and protected by the enemy, Jackson asked Bake and others to stay and assist Paul and other militiamen to transfer the residents of Dwenk City to the outskirts of the farm.

Port Alede is located south of Dwenk City, facing the Narrow Sea. It is also a small town with less than [-] permanent residents.

On the opposite side of the Narrow Sea are the Sunshine Continent and the Sunset Continent. From the Zonghai between these two continents to the south, across the Ocean of Storms covering the entire southern hemisphere of Shennong, you will reach the Southern Continent.Because it is covered by ice and snow, the natural environment is extremely harsh, and there is polar night for half a year, so the southern continent has no permanent residents, no towns, only a few scientific research weather stations, and a few left-behind scientific researchers.

It was already evening when the group arrived in Port Alede.

Although it was possible to sneak into the city disguised as the occupying army of the "Red Dragon Legion", Yang Yi and the others waited outside the city until dark just to be on the safe side.Zhang Tengyi is dead, and the occupying forces in Dwenk City have all surrendered. The news will leak out soon, and the occupying forces in other places will definitely strengthen their precautions.

Entering Port Alede under the cover of night is not the slightest challenge for Yang Yi and the others.

After avoiding the patrol, everyone slipped into the port without any risk.

Although Port Alede has less than [-] residents, it has the best natural harbor on the deserted grass continent, and it is also the largest seaport on the wild grass continent.

Dozens of large ground-effect freighters are moored neatly in the vast harbor.

To be precise, these freighters are aircraft, not ships sailing in the water.

During normal sailing, these cargo ships can leave the sea surface under the effect of ground effect and fly quickly at a height within 20 meters from the sea surface.Compared with ships, the biggest advantage is speed.Although more energy is required, it saves a lot of time.

"There are 87 ships, all of which are large cargo ships with a total load capacity of more than 500 million tons."

Yang Yi didn't say much. If these freighters were dispatched together, they could empty the granaries of ten towns at a time.With the transportation efficiency of the ground-effect freighter, all the food on the barren grassland can be transported away in at most three months.The question is, why do the occupying forces want so much food?

Besides, ground-effect freighters can only sail on the ocean of Shennong, and the occupying forces cannot use this to send food on Shennong to other planets.

If all the food is shipped to the southern continent, what is the Luo family doing there?
"What should we do now?"

"there."

Jackson looked in the direction of Yang Yi's finger, only to find that on the pier not far away, a ground-effect freighter was loading cargo.

"Pay attention to those freighters nearby."

Jackson took a closer look and said, "It's all fully loaded, and it looks like it's about to set sail."

When mooring, the ground-effect freighter is no different from ordinary ships. The hull is immersed in the water, and it can be judged from the draft whether the freighter is fully loaded.

"Also, have you noticed that these freighters are all of the same model."

"It belongs to the Luo family." Justin said at this time, "I asked Paul. The sea transport on Shennong Star is not well developed. There are less than a hundred ground-effect freighters in total, and they are all very old models. These freighters are The new model must have been built recently.”

"You mean, this is the freighter sent by the Luo family?"

Justin nodded, indicating that was exactly what he meant.The Shennong planet is blocked by the Luo family's fleet, and only the Luo family can send so many ground-effect freighters to the Shennong star.

This lineup is also too big.Yang Yi was suspicious.

"Slip up?" Lin Feng asked.

Yang Yi nodded slightly, and said, "Since you're here, you can't leave just by looking at it. Luo Changying let the occupying army plunder food everywhere, there must be some hidden secret. If all the food is shipped to one place, it must be with It is related to Luo Zhenyu's conspiracy."

"In this case, we need to find out more clearly."

"Let's swim over and board the freighter quietly. We will occupy the freighter after it leaves the port," Jackson said.

No one objected. Although everyone's combat power is very strong, it is not a problem to deal with the occupying forces in Port Alede, but it is not good to alert the enemy now.

Half an hour later, the six people approached the loading freighter from underwater.

Because there are still several freighters loading cargo, the fleet will not leave the port for the time being, so Jackson and Justin took this opportunity to sneak on the freighter to investigate.

Although it is a large freighter with a displacement of nearly [-] tons, it is highly automated. Each freighter has only six crew members, and only two crew members can operate it.Because Port Alede is far away from the desert in the hinterland of the wild grass continent, and the nearby towns are controlled by the occupying forces, the crew on the freighter is very relaxed and not vigilant at all.In fact, the whole of Port Alede is the same, and the defensive deployment of the occupying forces is almost useless.

A few hours later, in the light of daylight, the freighter lifted anchor.

Port Alede is a good natural harbor, that is, a huge inlet, with only one main waterway in the southwest direction.Twenty freighters lined up in a single file and passed through the waterway one by one.After reaching the open sea outside the harbor, the fleet began to speed up.

At this time, Yang Yi and other six people had already waited for the freighter.

The situation was not quite as expected. In addition to the [-] freighters, there were also four D-class warships escorting them.

Although these warships are not large and cannot serve as the main force on the space battlefield, thanks to their smaller tonnage and the ability to fly in the atmosphere, they have irreplaceable value.In previous wars, such small warships often served as forward support platforms for landing operations, providing artillery cover for landing troops, destroying enemy fortifications, and sometimes even attacking enemy fortresses.

Of course, escort missions are also often performed.

The four D-class warships should not be underestimated. Even if the "Fire Phoenix" and "Ice Snow Tiger" were used to easily destroy these four warships, the enemy would be alarmed.

With four warships around, capturing the freighter won't work.

Because the freighter had risen above the water and was flying above the sea, Yang Yi and the others could not continue hiding at the bottom of the freighter, but could only climb onto the freighter and hide in the cargo hold.

The cargo hold is full of standard containers full of grain.

Fortunately, the cruising speed of the ground-effect freighter is as high as [-] kilometers per hour. Even if the destination is the southern continent on the opposite side of the storm ocean, it only takes more than ten hours to reach it.Limited by the port's throughput capacity, it takes a whole day for the fleet to load goods in Port Alede.

Jackson and Justin are very conscious, and No. 11 and NO.[-] are not lazy.

The four people were divided into two shifts, and took turns standing guard outside the cargo door, without bothering Yang Yi and Lin Feng.

Yang Yi planned to take this opportunity to get a good night's sleep. After coming to Shennong, he hadn't rested yet.It's just that Lin Feng couldn't fall asleep no matter what, so he didn't let Yang Yi live.

"Tell me, what the hell is the Luo family doing on the southern continent?"

"Grandma, if I want to know, do I need to make a special trip?"

"What do you mean?"

Yang Yi was speechless, but he didn't dare to offend Lin Feng.Having been in contact with Jackson a lot, Yang Yi knew a long time ago that it is best not to offend women who are close to him, because such women dare to mess around and don't care about the feelings of the other party when messing around.

"Don't you think that what happened on Shennong is too strange, and there are many things that don't make sense at all."

Yang Yi sighed secretly, neither turning his head away nor responding.

"Shennong Star is the granary of the third war zone. Even if the chief of staff does not come forward, because a large part of the third fleet's daily supplies come from Shennong Star, Du Wantu will also intervene. At that time, even if Luo Zhenyu is the commander of the garrison, what happened What happened here can't be hidden. With Luo Zhenyu's shrewdness, he is not fully sure, and he will never start a war with Du Wantu, let alone give someone a handle."

"What if you are fully sure?"

"How can he be sure? Although the garrison is a regular army, its combat power is very limited, and it is not an opponent of the Third Fleet. Besides, Du Wantu has the support of the military department. Even if he defeats the Third Fleet, Luo Zhenyu will not contend with the military department. Strength. Unless..."

Lin Feng seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly stopped.

"Unless what?"

"Unless he has a bigger backer."

"Railing Clan?"

Lin Feng shook his head slightly, and said: "The Human Federation has been on good terms with the Hidden Spirit Race for a long time, and the relationship between Lin Shuai and the Hidden Spirit Race royal family is extraordinary. With the Hidden Spirit Race, unless Lei Sha plans to turn against the Heavenly Sage Emperor, Otherwise, there is no reason to seize the power of the third war zone through Luo Zhenyu. Luo Zhenyu is so shrewd, it is impossible not to know. If the two top civilizations clash, let alone him, even the Human Federation will suffer disaster."

"Besides the Leiling clan, is there a bigger backer?"

Lin Feng shook his head again, but this time he didn't say anything.

"Perhaps, Luo Zhenyu's move is desperate."

"What do you mean?" Lin Feng frowned, looking at Yang Yi in confusion.

"After the outbreak of the Sixth Greenwich War, Lin Shuai will definitely come back, and the status of the theater command will be greatly improved. Fortunately, Du Wantu said that he has the support of the military department, and the fleet is deployed by the military department during the war. It's too much, Lin Shuai won't take him under the knife. Luo Zhenyu is different. The garrison troops are organized under the theater and have nothing to do with the military headquarters. During wartime, they must unconditionally obey the dispatch of the theater headquarters. More trust in the chief of staff of the theater, and the chief of staff's number one duty in wartime is to assist the commander of the theater in commanding, planning, and deploying combat operations. Obviously, as long as a war breaks out, the chief of staff will become the leader under one man and above ten thousand in the theater Existence. The commander of the garrison will be reduced to the point of being ordered, and will lose all privileges."

"You mean..."

"Even if the chief of staff is magnanimous, considering the overall situation, he won't take the commander of the garrison force seriously, but from Luo Zhenyu's standpoint, would he see it that way?"

"The question is, what else can he do?"

"Seize power."

Lin Feng was startled. She didn't think of such a simple question. It wasn't until Yang Yi said it directly that she suddenly understood it.

"Grandma, are you done asking? There are no other questions. I'll go to bed."

"you……"

Before Lin Feng could speak, Yang Yi closed his eyes and snored loudly.
