I, from 1000 years ago

Chapter 81

Turning off the communication with Lin Jian, Lin Mo stood up from the sofa and walked to the huge French window in the office.It was the darkest moment before dawn, and it was dark when looking outside.There is only a light in the distance, which is the direction of the palace.Even at such a moment, the Golden Rose Palace where the royal family lives is still brightly lit.

The door of the office was opened, and Lin Mo turned his head to look, and it was Edward who walked in, and he was the only one who would enter here without knocking.

Edward looked haggard and looked a little bit aggrieved. Behind him was Fisher, the aide. He was holding a tray, and after pouring two cups of coffee for the two superiors, he quietly left the office.

"Is the task of changing the defense clear?" Lin Mo didn't move, he stood still and watched Edward go to the sofa and sit down hard, sinking himself deeply, Edward didn't answer, but Lin Mo didn't urge him, Watching him drink the coffee in front of him in one gulp.

"The task has been negotiated, and I just handed over the deployment task. Huestia led the first squadron to the fourth star, Becici led the second squadron to the ninth star, and the third squadron is still on standby in the military port. "

The capital galaxy, the Aschet galaxy, has seventeen planets that can be naturally inhabited by humans. Among them, the capital star, Aschet, is located in the sixth rotation orbit, which can be said to be in the middle of the entire galaxy.The reason why this planet originally named the sixth star is positioned as the capital star is not only because of its most favorable living environment, but also because of its excellent geographical location.Among the seventeen habitable planets in the galaxy, except No.16 and No.17, which only have a few heavy industry bases due to the harsh living environment, the remaining thirteen planets are inhabited by a large number of imperial citizens and have deployed military defenses.

Among them, the third, fourth, fifth, seventh, and ninth stars are heavily guarded as the capital star's protective stars because their rotation period is similar to Aschet's star and the distance is moderate.

In the past, the protection tasks of the capital galaxy were carried out by the First Fleet.Although the First Fleet has complained about this heavy garrison mission for a long time, but because it is closer to the capital planet, a large number of sergeants think that the mission is more humane than stationing in distant galaxies, so the complainers complain that they did not make a request Divide this task among other fleets.In the current vacancy, the Minister of Military Affairs proposed to assign this task to the Third Fleet, so people have to think about his intentions.

"Because the First Fleet is stationed on the capital star, the Minister of Defense has always left our fleet on the capital star when arranging fleet missions. Now our general warships are assigned to the outer planets, which is obviously a division The power of the Third Fleet." Edward put down the coffee cup in his hand, and picked up Lin Mo's cup again.

At the just-concluded military meeting, although Lin Mo, the commander of the fleet, had the right to attend, he did not have the right to speak. The right to assign the fleet was still in the hands of the Minister of Military Affairs, the Minister of Defense, and the Commander-in-Chief of the Space Fleet.His first duty as a soldier is to obey orders.At this time, the capital star belongs to the Grand Duke's fleet. In addition to their third fleet, there is also the seventh fleet that is about to return from the fierce battle. This will indeed make some people feel uneasy.

"Thank you." Lin Mo nodded and looked at Edward, "It's not the first day Huestia and Becici have led the team. They don't understand the handover tasks behind this kind of politics. What should they do?" It's very clear." Huestia is a veteran who he promoted from the middle and lower ranks of the fleet soldiers, and he is more cunning than anyone else in terms of mind.And Becici is a talented student who graduated from Starfleet Academy, and he is also an excellent staff member. Edward arranged these two clever guys to switch defenses, and his intention was obvious.

"I understand." Edward nodded as expected. He had cooperated with Lin Mo for a long time, so he naturally knew what kind of deployment was the most suitable, otherwise Lin Mo would not have given him such power without hesitation. "I heard that the Seventh Fleet is going to be sent to suppress the turmoil in the Mankira galaxy?"

For another important order in the military meeting not long ago, Lin Mo obviously paid more attention to it. At this time, Edward frowned after raising this question, "The Mankira galaxy is located at the far end of the empire, and the natural conditions are not very good. There has also been turmoil for years. This time it is obviously more serious. They and several small galaxies around them have established their own political power. It seems a bit unusual. So the military department sent out the currently fully organized Seventh Fleet. But obviously this order is a bit strange .”

"Yeah, the Seventh Fleet should have been transferred back from the fierce battle, and the Eighth Fleet is currently stationed in the Cinderella Galaxy. The Cinderella Galaxy is only a week away from the Mankira Galaxy. The Seventh Fleet transferred there instead of directly mobilizing the Eighth Fleet from the Cinderella galaxy." Edward shook his head and rubbed his chin, "Could it be that those people really can't wait? To use such an obvious method?"

"Although it seems obvious, it does restrict us. But this is the emperor's order. If we don't intend to take action, we can only obey the order."

After listening to Lin Mo's words, Edward was also a little silent, and asked after a while, "This should be the first time Lin Zi has actually done something as the chief aide, right?"

Although Lin Zi participated in the garrison mission in the fierce battle area as the chief staff member of the Seventh Fleet, it was all small friction.But this time the rebellion is different, the Mankira galaxy has its own defense system, plus the private fleets of the minor nobles in the surrounding galaxies, the total number of fleets may exceed fifteen thousand.Regardless of the quality, but judging from the number of warships, this is a duel of comparable strength.

Seeing that Lin Mo was silent, Edward smiled, "Hey, don't worry. He has long been an adult, and it is inevitable to go this way. At his age, you don't know how many battles he has fought Yes. I still remember the first battle between you and me. You are just a rookie who just graduated from the military academy. With two hundred warships, you told me with a tragic face, if you can’t come back, help you take care of your brother Sister. Thinking about it now, you were actually cuter back then, haha."

Edward's ridicule eased the depressing atmosphere in the office just now, Lin Mo smiled lightly, walked over and sat opposite Edward, "The Seventh Fleet will leave for the Mankira Galaxy from the fierce battle in three days, and the front fortress will be responsible for Its initial supply mission. Although Admiral Hughes of the Seventh Fleet is a bit too willful and indirect in terms of interpersonal relationships, he has his own way of fighting, and Lin Zi will learn a lot as the chief staff under him."

"Ah, yes, there is one more thing." Recalling the report he received from a distant galaxy not long ago, Edward's expression became serious, "Our secret troops have reached the outer edge of the Tisifer galaxy. They are currently staying at the outer supply base for a short time. , in the name of the Mobile Patrol, the pass I got from Samuel before. You have been in meetings this afternoon, and then I went to dispatch troops and now I have the opportunity to tell you about it."

Lin Mo nodded, "Can we communicate?"

"It should be possible." Edward walked to the communicator in front of the electronic crystal screen, stretched out his hand and clicked a few times, a long string of passwords plus fingerprint detection, a private communication channel began to connect.
