Him and their stars

Lieutenant General Sylvester and the soldiers in the Far Coast Military Region felt that this so-called "adaptive response" did not sound like a serious order that a serious person could figure out.

They originally thought that the Lords of the Earth were already very unhuman in terms of their behavior, but they never expected that they would always refresh their lower limit of knowledge.

Lieutenant General Sylvester looked at the face of the young secretary behind the holographic projection. Although he knew that this kind of clerk should not be responsible, he just wanted to punch him in the nose.

Yang Mingzhao probably guessed it, so he could only say sincerely:

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Commander, the President and the Cabinet are convening an emergency meeting. There has been no similar example since the founding of the Community. It is indeed necessary to conduct a comprehensive assessment and calculation. Even the decision-makers of the central government will naturally behave Please show some hesitation and caution. Please understand.”

Having said this, the other party clasped his hands together, and a proper apology suddenly appeared on his kind face.

Seeing that the other party's attitude was so upright and his words were pleasant, Lieutenant General Sylvester suddenly felt that he could no longer be angry, and just muttered: "But haven't pilots and warships defected before... ah no, An example of surrendering to freedom?”

"That was during the War of Independence. And the most famous one was just a whole destroyer, and most of the crew members on it were born on Earth or related to Earth. However, senior officials like Mr. Hector Hewen But this is the first time. We have already checked his resume. Although he is young, he has also served as the mayor of a space city with 300,000 people in the imperial capital. Before joining the Generalissimo's Palace, he also served as a second-class government official in the Prime Minister's Palace. Secretary. Well, I’m probably at my level. He’s such a good and outstanding talent!”

Lieutenant General Sylvester felt that this guy was vaguely flaunting himself, but he really couldn't produce any evidence for a while. However, he did realize that such people defecting... ah no, defecting to the free world is indeed different from the one or two ships that came here in the past.

"Especially, he is the brother of Peleliu Hewen. You also know that due to pressure from the empire, the Community also listed the Franmore Free Army as an illegal violent organization." Yang Mingzhao showed a compassionate expression .

Of course, Yang Mingzhao believes that there should be no support for these imperial rebel organizations if the community has ever supported them, at least the Earth government must not. On the one hand, it lacks strength, on the other hand, it lacks channels, and it also lacks courage.

As for whether there are organizations other than the Earth government within the community that have done something that is not humanitarian enough for outsiders... Yang Mingzhao believes that if his emotions are stable, it should not be a big problem.

"Of course, for senior officials of this level, the empire and the alliance often exchange their needs." Yang Mingzhao couldn't help but add.

The word "mutual exchange" was used very well. Everyone in the Ninth Fleet headquarters burst into laughter, and the scene was suddenly filled with a happy atmosphere. The slight discomfort before was temporarily relieved a lot.

At this time, the cruiser Annunciation Bird, which was still waiting for the result on the cordon, sent new news.

Compared with the last communication, Hector River, the former senior civil servant of the empire, was a little more anxious than before, but at least he still maintained the most basic demeanor and decency. On behalf of all members of the ship, he said: This defection... ah no, the final destination of defecting to freedom is actually not the community, but the alliance. In fact, they don't want to cause trouble for the community. They just hope to get temporary shelter from the people on earth and gain another way.

Oh, so you want to defect to the Alliance? That makes perfect sense.

The generals and Yang Mingzhao all breathed a sigh of relief, but inexplicably felt like an arrow had been hit in their knees. They always feel that the other party is secretly mocking the community for not taking it seriously. How dare they claim to be the third largest military power in the galaxy?

Later, Mr. Hector Hewen said very solemnly: "Of course, in return, we are prepared to provide the intelligence to the alliance and are willing to share it with the community."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Kaitai general named Pibeard had sincerely sent an electronic document, which was the detailed plan of the Kaitai Kingdom's staff.

In this plan, these two young men, who were heavily armed by the Galactic Empire because of their "loyalty", have mobilized 90% of the fleet, including all seven dreadnoughts, and everything is ready. Prepare for all-out war.

Their coalition forces have assembled into two clusters, preparing to launch a sudden attack on the community from the Far Coast Nebula and the Gibraltar Galaxy at the same time.

"In addition to our country... and the Republic of Bakwi, the fleets of the Principality of Hayar and the Principality of Angmans are also mobilizing, and they should serve as reserve forces." Major General Pibeard probably felt that there was something wrong with his attitude, and he looked at his big furry face. A sad, even desolate expression emerged.

"I am still opposed to the policies of my country. Although we are allies of the empire, we should not be the dogs of the empire! We should not serve as cannon fodder for the Tyrero Dragon Kings! However, Charon just put forward his own opinions. Crown Prince Starmane then deprived me of all honors and chopped off my hand."

The Cathay general raised his left hand tremblingly, and sure enough he saw the metal prosthetic body.

... To be honest, in this era, genetic medical technology for the restoration of amputated limbs is not a rare black technology. This guy either thinks that the prosthetic body is very useful, or the move to "run to freedom" is temporary and there is really no time for surgery.

"I am familiar with all the country's proposed combat plans and their operational schedules."

Everyone can guess that this should be the certificate of surrender provided by these defectors.

However, Lieutenant General Sylvester and Yang Mingzhao generally felt that their emotions were relatively stable.

To be honest, although this news is shocking, it is not completely unexpected. After all, provocations by the combined fleets of the two countries on the border are no longer a matter of a day or two. If we are not prepared to do something substantial, is it because we have too much money and no place to spend it?

The Bakvi people are okay, that is, the interstellar shipping and industrial equipment manufacturing industries that they rely on as the backbone of the national economy have been robbed of many markets in the past two years.

But in comparison, the situation of the Kingdom of Katai is not very good. Since the border battle of the West End System Battle in early 830, in order to restore the fleet, these big cats almost pawned the underwear of the concubines of the Protector of the Country. In the majestic interstellar era, the big cats began to adopt a rationing system for their daily necessities and food.

This is true even for the Cathays, not to mention the second-class citizens the Terrabis.

The current Kingdom of Cathay is sitting on a big powder keg, which will either make others boom or blow itself up.

More importantly, the two countries did not sign the "peace for a generation" treaty.

"What time?" Lieutenant General Sylvester asked in a deep voice.

"Very, very close, within a month." Major General Pibeard's answer finally contained some information. Of course, if you want more information, you probably have to open the border to let them in.

The generals of the Ninth Fleet felt calm and didn't seem too surprised.

Yang Mingzhao still didn't completely believe the other party. He observed the other party's lost face through the projection of two light screens, trying to see some clues from it.

"Where is the Empire?" the lieutenant general asked again.

Thanks to the revitalized Red Maple Factory, a large amount of Taishi alloy saved a lot of man-hours in the construction of the space fortress. In just the past two years, the Far Coast Military District has built 6 fortresses in Earl Star Gap and Lucknar Corridor. Relying on these fortifications, Vice Admiral Sylvester is confident that he can block all the main fleets of the two countries behind the nebula.

Similarly, Gibraltar is the territory of the Outer Rim Fleet.

This main fleet with the strongest combat effectiveness and the most complete combat readiness in the community did not go to the New World. It is still the most trustworthy mainstay of the community and the most important weapon of the country.

As long as the empire doesn't end up personally, everything is under control.

Hector Hewen replied: "As far as I know, the Grand Marshal's Office is currently mainly trying to quell the increasingly fierce resistance organizations in the border galaxies. The focus of the Prime Minister's Office is the development of the New World and the Dawn Star Territory, and has nothing to do with the Community. , as well as the preparations of the alliance behind them for war...the empire only provided them with a considerable amount of arms purchases and loans, and did not prevent them from following up."

Yang Mingzhao looked at the other party deeply: "I will convey the latest situation to President Nikita and the cabinet ministers as soon as possible. I believe that they will make a decision quickly."

"I sincerely look forward to it." Hector Hewen showed a sad and desolate smile for the first time: "I don't want to rush you, but I am just a loser who has lost everything, desperate, sensitive, Cowardly. Now, apart from wanting to survive, I have no other needs."

After the communication with the Far Coast Nebula was interrupted, Yang Mingzhao closed the terminal and quickly rushed to the president's office.

It was already late at night. In fact, the so-called emergency meeting was never held at all. As for the senior cabinet officials who dominate the community, they are not staying up late to conduct what Yang Mingzhao called "extensive assessment and deliberations."

In fact, they had left the presidential palace three hours ago and went back to their homes to find their mothers.

After all, staying up late is the enemy of beauty and health. After all, we have to consider the average age of senior cabinet officials.

It can be seen that whether it is Commander Tatos from the Alliance finally showing up, or the defection of the Far Shore Nebula here, it is not a major event worth staying up late for.

At least that's what the cabinet members of Earth's central government think.

Thankfully, the energetic President Nishita is not resting yet.

When Yang Mingzhao found him, the President and his wife had already put on light sportswear and were sweating profusely in the gym.

It's not some difficult gym play, it's just a very serious and normal exercise. The former is lifting irons, while the latter is walking on the treadmill.

There is a saying that Yang Mingzhao actually admires President Nikita. No matter how busy you are, you never cancel your daily exercise. This kind of self-discipline, or obsession, is already better than 99% of people.

It's just that the president's wife stepped on the treadmill a bit deliberately. He is obviously a psychic, but can jogging at a speed of 10 kilometers per hour really have an exercise effect?

"Hahahaha, Mingzhao, judging from your expression, Chairman Maxel must have guessed it right? Right? Cat and Birdman are preparing to cause trouble? Is that so?" With the help of the guards, the Commander-in-Chief said While wearing a belt, he let out a hearty laugh.

Yang Mingzhao nodded slightly, his face full of sincere admiration: "You are worthy of being a veteran on the battlefield!"

"That old man is not a veteran. He has never been in a few battles. At most, he is just a politician in uniform. This kind of person is not uncommon." Mr. President gestured to the guards to weigh the barbell and said he was not polite. The place comments on the highest military and political officer in the country.

"However, after all, old Mike has worn military uniforms all his life. He can at least be regarded as a qualified staff officer and should have such judgment. Of course, Mingzhao, this is actually also thanks to Xiaona and you. You guys. Help me reorganize the internal affairs department and the intelligence department, so that we can receive information about the movements of the Cat Man and the Bird Man early."

Yang Mingzhao quickly lowered his head to show his modesty, a little embarrassed.

He felt that no matter how useless the personnel of the National Government and the Communist Party of China were, they would not be able to detect that the enemy's fleet was fully mobilized. What's more, the enemy is not prepared to hide it. Joint training and actual combat exercises have been carried out so many times.

At this time, President Nishita firmly grasped the barbell in his hand, showing a ferocious expression as if he was constipated.

However, he still lifted the barbell steadily.

"The world is under my control!" he said solemnly, feeling like a majestic and mighty king.

Yang Mingzhao watched the president with some admiration and admiration after completing a set of 240-pound deadlifts, and then said: "However, Your Excellency, it is different from what the General Staff predicted for next year. It is very likely that their full-scale attack time will be It’s next month. This is information from the defectors over there.”

President Nishita was slightly startled, dropped the barbell, and fell into deep thought.

Yang Mingzhao keenly saw a trace of hesitation on the other party's face. However, just a moment later, when Mrs. Melalie's half-smiling gaze moved over, President Nishita seemed to have been injected with infinite power, and his figure suddenly stood up and looked even taller and taller. .

Then, his whole spirit changed from a middle-aged man in crisis who was always hesitating, to a great leader full of courage and fighting spirit.

"Hehehe, it's nothing more than trying to steal a piece of it while our main god-level one hasn't returned home and our expedition fleet is still in the New World. However, none of this exceeds our expectations."

He added: "Even if it is not expected, it must be within the range that we can handle. Is that so? Ming Zhao."

Haven't you already asked Chairman Maxell and Marshal Paris about this question? Haven't they already responded positively? If you ask the same question too many times, wouldn’t it make you look guilty?

Although Yang Mingzhao thought so in his heart, he still said with confidence: "I only know that speculation is useful and effective, but it must be limited. There has never been anyone who has achieved great things through this in ancient times."

The president couldn't help but be startled: "Which imperial proverb is this? Or is it a Taoist motto?"

"No, it was Mr. Qi Bingwen who said it."

President Nishita's face stiffened for a moment.

He actually didn't really want to hear the name, and he always felt as if he was being ridiculed for being uneducated.

However, Yang Mingzhao is his trusted secretary after all, so it must be an illusion. So, after being so stiff that he could hardly see the real thing, he seamlessly switched to a hearty and admiring smile again, nodded and said: "You are indeed a literary treasure of the earth, every sentence is a wise saying!"
