I, from 1000 years ago

Chapter 84

The Seventh Fleet of the Empire has [-] warships, which is a fleet with a small number of warships among all the fleets of the Empire.But even so, it took nearly seven days for the fleet to resupply at the front fortress, which was far from the three days required by the military.Although there was a lot of delay in time, the commander of the fleet, Admiral Hughes, insisted that the fleet should not set sail until the replenishment was completed.

He only said one sentence to the urging military affairs officer: "This is the farthest journey in the empire. It must be fully supplied. At least the 260 million soldiers under me must be able to eat every day."

It will take nearly two months for the Mankira galaxy to be away from the capital star capital, let alone the front-end fortress in the other direction.Admiral Hughes used this method to protest the military's arrangement for the Seventh Fleet to go out instead of mobilizing fleets from nearby galaxies such as Fisichella.Although the nearly fifty-year-old admiral complained about this matter, he still meticulously began to arrange the fleet's travel plan.This is not only the habit of obeying orders developed in the past 30 years in the army, but also responsible for the life of every soldier.

Standing on the bridge of the deputy flagship, Lin Zi looked at the endless dark universe outside the window, and remembered that Lin Mo had also spoken highly of Admiral Hughes. [Although he has a headstrong personality, he will not suppress the development of his subordinates, and he has his own way of fighting. ] Lin Mo is indeed right.Just like now, even though Lin Zi is nominally the chief staff member of the Seventh Fleet, he still can only stay on the sub-flagship. Admiral Hughes is used to acting arbitrarily and rarely asks his staff for their opinions. He prefers to make his own decisions , he usually only has his adjutant who has been with him for more than ten years by his side.

"What are you thinking? You look fascinated."

Lin Zi looked back and saw Major Plum, who was also an aide, came over with two cups of coffee.They were the only two of the same age in the staff team of the Seventh Fleet.For Lin Zi who was awarded the rank of lieutenant colonel at the age of 25 and became the chief staff member of the Seventh Fleet, those majors in their thirties to forties obviously felt quite uncomfortable.Therefore, Lin Zi is currently only friendly with Major Plum.Major Plum even claimed that it was Lin Zi who saved him. Before Lin Zi arrived, he was the only member of the staff who was under 40 years old and was excluded by everyone.This situation is also related to the fact that Admiral Hughes rarely let his staff set foot on the flagship, but let them each stay on their own sub-flagship.

"Plum, how old is your sister?" Lin Zi asked casually after taking the coffee.

"...cough." Lin Zi's question made Plum almost choke on his coffee, and finally calmed down before looking at Lin Zi like a monster, "Emily already has a child, and Rebecca just turned 15 this year. At [-], none of them are suitable for you!"

"...do I look that horny?"

"You who have been a female officer of the Seventh Fleet ask such a question, how can you not let me think about it."

"Okay..." Lin Zi was a little helpless, he couldn't be as exaggerated as spending time in the Seventh Fleet, "How is your relationship with them?"

"Emily and I are only one year apart, so our relationship was always bad before we were teenagers, but now we have a good relationship, and even feel that the previous behavior was too childish. I was 14 years old when Rebecca was born.对于我们家来说是一个巨大的节日，我跟艾米丽都非常爱瑞贝卡。我甚至揍过瑞贝卡的小男友，哈哈！”

"Plum, you are still naive."

"What the hell? Who made him want to abduct my sister, my cutest sister!"

"It seems that you get along well with your younger sisters." Seeing Plum's complacent look when he talked about beating up his younger sister's boyfriend, Lin Zi felt a little uncomfortable.

"How do you talk about this?" Plum noticed Lin Zi's strangeness, and put away his troubles.

"A few days ago, I saw my sister."

"Your sister?" Plum was at a loss, "Isn't your sister in the logistics department? I remember she was a captain. How did you see her in the front fortress?"

"It's not that, it's my youngest sister."

"You still have a younger sister?" Plum always thought that Lin Zi had only one younger sister, but in fact, he found out after seeing Lin Zi and Lin Hong communicate by chance.Ever since he met Lin Hong on the electronic crystal screen, the second youngest bachelor among the officers of the Seventh Fleet has always had some thoughts, but he never found a chance to talk to Lin Zi about it.So, when Lin Zi talked about seeing his sister, Plum's first reaction was that Lin Zi met Lin Hong.

Although the rank is up to lieutenant colonel, in the fleet of the empire, the lieutenant colonel does not know how many, so in the Seventh Fleet, except for some old aides and Commander Admiral Hughes, most people don't know Lin Zi's background .Not to mention Plum, who has a carefree personality.

"Yeah, it's supposed to be 17 this year, or it is."

"..." Lin Zi's words made Pulum speechless again, would anyone not remember the age of his younger siblings?

"I've been living at school since she was five, and she was in foster care at St. Seth's Abbey [-]/[-], and we didn't see each other very often. Later on, you know boys in their teens are always I'm impatient." Lin Zi said, unknowingly, there was a sense of justifying himself, "You know...I..." Lin Zi felt that he couldn't say anything, he used to hate Lin Jian, hated her The idea of ​​taking away his mother had accompanied him for nearly ten years. During those ten years, every time he saw Lin Jian, he had the urge to run away.Later, although he realized that his mother's death was not Lin Jian's fault, a long-term estrangement had already formed, and as Lin Jian's reputation became more and more unsightly, he never thought of easing or improving their relationship.In his opinion, being a stranger to such a younger sister is actually pretty good.

"It sounds like you are indeed a very bad brother, but then again, why is your sister in the front fort." Lin Zi's words made Plum even more at a loss.

"Because the four misbehaving noble children were beaten beyond recognition in the imperial capital." Having said this, Lin Zi shook his head mockingly, "But on the surface, it is because of her excellent grades in the school year. I heard that she was a freshman in the military academy. She won the No.1 result in the competition, and the Grand Duke awarded her a medal."

"..." Plum opened his mouth wide in surprise, and it took him a while to realize. Just as he was about to say something, the signalman sent a message, and Admiral Hughes asked all his staff to go to the flagship Napoleon.

After looking at each other, the two walked off the bridge and walked towards the flight passage.

This is the first tactical meeting in COIN!
