Chapter 226

During the year when the new emperor ascended the throne, the Galactic Empire made a lot of preparations for the possible Galactic War.The first thing is to add fourteen warp space jump stations between the capital galaxy and the front fortress.However, these subspace jumping stations are all one-way.It can be used from the capital galaxy to the front fortress, but it can only be used when returning.

"It's because of financial constraints." Brant, who was standing on the bridge with Lin Jian, said, and then he showed his trademark sarcastic smile, "However, that being said, who knows if the court is in a state of crisis? The mentality of going with the flow.”

With the new emperor ascending the throne and experiencing civil war, the empire's finances are definitely not abundant.But since the intention to build the jumping station is one-way, even if the Minister of Finance clearly stated that this is entirely due to financial constraints, everyone is not a fool.

This is also understandable, the position of the emperor is such a place, not to mention the side of the couch, no one else can sleep soundly in the whole house.Lin Hong acted so tough back then, to put it bluntly, she gave up the throne of the emperor now.Although he is not a narrow-minded person in terms of the little emperor's personality, as an emperor, he always has the pride of being an emperor.

After the fleet traveled for thirteen days, it was about to reach the third jumping station.Lin Jian stood on the bridge with his hands behind his back, looking at the front screen from the wide-angle detector, but did not answer Brandt's words.The construction of a one-way subspace jump station connecting the capital galaxy and the front-end fortress was not mentioned by the court, the military, or even the Ministry of Finance. No one is a fool in this whirlpool. Everyone wisely kept silent about this move by the court.

Compared with the civil war that Lin Jian participated in, the deployment of this operation is obviously much stricter. This is a large-scale military operation actively participated by a relatively powerful country.The steps that were simplified due to the situation during the civil war were indispensable at this time. Although in Lin Jian's opinion, some steps were too formal, she was not an angry young man. The emperor is rectifying military affairs, and what she thinks may not be completely correct.

This time Lin Jian is currently receiving instructions to follow Lin Mo all the way to the Tiranmat galaxy. She only needs to obey the orders, and then understand the war from the perspective of an observer, and then she is still shrouded in thick fog in her heart. A frame that is not fully formed carries out some simulated structural design.

Three hours later, the Vanguard Fleet sent back a message and began sorting into the jumping station.

This is the first jump of this mixed fleet, and it is also the first time that this jumping station transmits such a large number of warships at the same time, so the procedure has been arranged before the fleet departs, and the fleet will stay here for ten hours. , to facilitate the jumping station to submit the transmission data to several other jumping stations that will undertake the transmission task along the way.

The pit stop process was orderly and without any issues.

It was the evening of standard time, so Lin Jian and Brant left the flagship to eat.A small subspace jumping station usually doesn't have many staff and garrisons, but it's self-contained anyway, and it's not too difficult to find a restaurant.In fact, Lin Jian quite agrees with Brant's practice of foraging for food first when he arrives in a new place, although for example, the restaurants in such places will never be more appetizing than the restaurants on the flagship.

An hour later, Brant was somewhat regretting his decision to leave the flagship restaurant.At this time, he and Lin Jian were eating in a small staff restaurant outside the arrival and departure hall.According to him, the unrecognizable food on the dinner plate, the low-strength low-strength wine that even smelled of fuel, and all the waiters made him lose his appetite.

"It's a bit strange." Lin Jian didn't complain about the food problem. In her eyes, there was another direction of observation.

"What's weird?" Brandt asked.

"It's all men. I haven't seen a woman at this jumping station since I got off the flagship." Lin Jian looked at the waiters shuttled between the tables, judging from their slightly unfamiliar movements, they It doesn't seem like you've been doing this job for a long time.

"This..." Brant rubbed his chin with blue stubble, nodded and replied, "This is really unusual, the ratio of men and women in the military has shrunk a lot over the past few decades, and This kind of military site basically has a fixed number of personnel, so generally speaking, there are quite a few families who are placed in the military area. Places like restaurants are the most common choice for female employment."

Lin Jian agreed with Brant's point of view. At this time, she nodded silently, picked up the wine glass in front of her as a cover, and carefully looked at the few male waiters in the restaurant.

"However, maybe this is what the officers here requested. This kind of independent military area far away from the capital galaxy, the highest officer has no prospects for development, so many of them have been sent down here, even equivalent to exile in disguise, which is a bit annoying Personality is not a strange thing." Brant pouted as he looked at the male waiters who were tall and rough.

Will it be so?Lin Jian is not very sure, after all, she has not been in this era for a long time, and all the personnel and affairs she has experienced are changes in the regular military. These trivial things are indeed only for low-level officers like Brant for many years. Only then is it clear.

However, just to be careful, Lin Jian turned on the communicator on his wrist and began to check the details of this subspace jumping station.The military database quickly gave Lin Jian detailed information.

This subspace jumping station, labeled C-α175-3, is a purely military jumping station, so all the staff members belong to the regular establishment of the national army.The chief executive is named Lex Starkey and ranks up to Lieutenant Colonel.He is 64 years old this year, and he has been in the position of lieutenant colonel for 16 years.He should be being interviewed by Lin Mo at present. If it weren't for this war, he might never have the chance to be interviewed by the Marshal of the Empire in his whole life.

The second executive was a young man, Major Dalia von Elancks, 27 years old.Still a nobleman.If, as Brandt said, this kind of space station belongs to the place of devolution of officers with no future, how could this Major Elanks be sent here. The 27-year-old major is not very promising among military officers, but he is also in the upper middle class.

"Some incompetent children of down-and-out low-level nobles will also work in this kind of place. After all, they have a secure life and a decent official title." Brandt glanced at Lin Jian's communicator, and immediately knew what his boss was thinking. .

Lin Jian nodded, turned off the communicator, and said to Brant, "We've eaten enough, let's go back to the flagship." I always felt that the atmosphere was a bit weird, and the male waiters kept looking at them secretly.Coupled with the poor environment and dim lighting of this restaurant, the scattered guests make people feel very uncomfortable.

Brant didn't have a good impression of this restaurant either, and stood up with the napkin to wipe his hands still on the table.

And at this moment, an unexpected situation happened.

Those male waiters walked towards the two of them with particle beam submachine guns. Under the dim light of the restaurant, the crystalline fiber muzzle of the particle beam gun glowed with cold light.

"Lieutenant General Lin Jian, please don't act rashly, stand up immediately and follow us!" A bearded man came out from the direction of the back kitchen of the restaurant, facing Lin Jian and Brant, and said coldly.
