Him and their stars

You know, who is Yang Xiyi? In the Imperial Army, many people have called him and Yu Lian the "double evil" of the Earthlings. And in the eyes of experts, his evaluation is even higher than the latter.

After all, Yu Lian's record can be called brilliant, but he has the vast majority of the Earthlings' main forces in his hands. But Yang Xiyi, relying on a small fleet without even a main battleship, completed the feat of destroying the Destroyer of the Unity Fortress, sinking the Titan, and killing King Soren.

After that, the entire Dawn Nebula became a battleground for his small fleet. And now, the Imperial fleet gathered here has reached five or six times that of Yang's fleet, but it has always been played around by the other side.

For the Holy Galactic Empire, which is full of martial virtues, such an opponent is certainly respectable, but also dangerous. Of course, it is possible to persuade them to surrender, but it must be defeated and forced into a desperate situation. Why would they start broadcasting to persuade them to surrender now? Not to mention that the surrender treatment was told in advance.

Even when King Suliuka tried to persuade Yu Lian to surrender, the treatment was only discussed in private.

But now, there is a broadcast to the entire star field to persuade him to surrender, which always has a bit of a soft taste. For the New World War Zone of the Imperial Army, this should be quite a shame.

Luo Zeshi said: "The resistance of the Yang Fleet, Yaochi and Miracle Ring is still going on. Among them, the biggest threat to the Empire is still the Yang Fleet. We don't have the exact loss report of the Empire in the New World War Zone, but in November last year, our intelligence department determined that the battlecruiser Yeqi, which was being repaired at the Weiguang Shipyard, had been seriously injured. And she was still serving in the Dawn Star Field in the first half of last year, and participated in the Battle of Miracle Ring."

"Wow, although the Commissioner and the Law are both good-for-nothings, they can still do some work occasionally." Yu Lian nodded in approval.

"This information actually comes from the Imperial Student Association and old contacts in the embassy in Tianyu." Luo Zeshi explained seriously. He was not prepared to save face for the Commission and the Law.

"Let's not talk about Tan Jize's friends, the legacy left by Major General Watt Lar is really inexhaustible!" Yu Lian sighed, and threw a look at the former ambassador that only he could understand.

Mr. Qi snorted: "That person was originally a very good intelligence manager... uh, I mean an excellent embassy military attaché. I just think they are too tense."

This, you are all like this. If Major General Lar and others relax, what will happen if the embassy collapses like the latest Olympic Games.

After Major General Watt Lar left the embassy in Tianyu, he was recommended by Yu Lian to become the chief of staff of Lieutenant General Sayo, the director of the Community Marine Corps. After the Battle of Miracle Ring, Sayo was appointed as the deputy commander of the New World Theater by the National Defense Committee and was also promoted to general. Both of them were trapped in the Ring of Miracles. Yu Lian certainly knew that the Empire had launched a full-scale attack on the plates controlled by them in the Ring of Miracles and won.

However, there were still a small number of troops that broke through successfully and were persisting in resistance. Yu Lian hoped that Admiral Saiyo and Major General Lar could also be together with the breakout troops, and he was leading everyone to continue fighting.

Before the Empire came up with a definitive list of prisoners of war and the dead, Yu Lian still had some hope.

In addition, he was still worried about the situation of Yang's fleet.

Although the enemy began to persuade them to surrender by broadcasting, it showed that even the wealthy Galactic Empire was having a headache for this protracted game of hide-and-seek. But Yu Lian knew that the Empire might be very uncomfortable, and the situation of Teacher Yang and Senior Sister was even more difficult. They walked in the vast Dawn Nebula. Although there was plenty of room for maneuvering, under the Empire's overwhelming encirclement, every step they took was actually treading on thin ice.

It was also difficult for them to get supplies and repairs. The entire fleet is dancing on a tightrope, and the entire army should be stretched to the limit of their body and mind.

Then, the early opening of the eighth star gate should be a good thing. The problem now is how to contact Teacher Yang and the others

When Yu Lian was thinking, he heard Mr. Qi ask: "So, what about the Lone Ranger? Where is the Lone Ranger now? Is it still on standby opposite the star gate?"

"Well, the last message we received was sent by the Lone Ranger 12 hours ago." Xiao Bai said. He quickly added with the same rigorous attitude as a technician or officer: "That is, it was sent on January 14, 834, at 03:17 standard time."

Yu Lian reacted instantly. Although gravitational waves are not as instant as source waves that can be separated by tens of thousands of light years, they are also an advanced superluminal communication method. If it is only separated by a star gate, the delay will not exceed one hour no matter how far the distance is.

This can only mean that the Lone Ranger has gone to another galaxy.

Wow! It's really spirited!

"Captain Bai has commanded the ship to arrive at the DL364 star system, and has re-arranged the gravitational wave signal tower in the asteroid belt there." Xiao Bai replied: "What he meant was that since they are here anyway, and they only have one exploration ship, they can just sneak in for reconnaissance."

There was a brief silence at the scene.

"Lieutenant Piri on the ship also said that they will try to repair their gravitational wave beacons and open encrypted channel calls as they explore. In this way, we may be able to contact Yang Xiyi's fleet, or even Yaochi and the direction of the Ring of Miracles." Xiaobai continued to report.

Because the unfolding was so magnificent, everyone became even quieter.

This Lieutenant Piri, who was unknown in the previous life, is a talent! Yu Lian felt very sad for a while. When he thought that such a talent would be buried in the turbulent war era in the previous life, he felt extremely regretful.

But at the same time, his heart was also filled with a surging sense of accomplishment.

According to the experience of the previous life, collecting gold cards step by step, making these outstanding young people mature in advance, and making them better than in the previous life, this is certainly a wonderful feeling. However, discovering the heroes who were buried in the previous life and letting them shine in advance, isn't this also an admirable achievement?

This is true for Tamir, who he called "Great Skill Master No. 3"; for Brigadier General Bazin and Major General Maklov, who are old but strong; and for Simon Vayali of Yaochi.

Now, there is another card with the potential to be at least SR in front of him, how can he not be excited?

"How lucky!" Yu Lian sighed.

"Oh, it's really a relief." Mr. Qi laughed.

"In a sense, sir, you are too!" Yu Lian patted the old writer on the shoulder.

In another timeline, his encyclopedia is "a great writer and thinker", but now, he is destined to add the title of politician and revolutionary.

There are talented people in every generation! Who said that the people on Earth are destined to be divided, destined to be slaves of a conquered country, and destined to kneel down to the Dragon Kings?

Professor Zinov took a sip of vodka and said with a smile: "Indeed, I have also seen Lieutenant Rayman Piri. He is a spirited and fearless young man. Haha, I heard that he is also a moon man. This is different from my stereotype!"

Mr. Qi smiled and said: "It is different from my stereotype. However, before I met Yu Lian, I always felt that the elite bureaucratic group was a fighting cock wrapped in a feather blanket pretending to be a big eagle, and the moon man was not even a fighting cock, at most a black chicken with reverse feathers."

The two "moon men" present could only say that they were sorry for misunderstanding the virtues of their predecessors.

"However, a few golden phoenixes can also get into the black chicken group. If the genes of the chicken group can be changed because of this, it would be a great merit." Mr. Qi smiled.

It sounded like breeding. Yu Lian rolled his eyes secretly.

"The Lone Ranger has also reported. For safety reasons, they try to report to us every twelve hours. If nothing goes wrong, the next report should be received in 30 minutes." Xiaobai reported.

He paused, and then said embarrassedly: "But, considering that the Lone Ranger will go farther and farther, the communication delay will also increase."

"... Well, my math is not good. Does this mean that I don't know how long it will take for the next report to arrive?" Mr. Qi asked.

Xiaobai lowered his head and smiled awkwardly.

It was Rozes who calculated: "The speed of the Lone Ranger is just like that. It is the first gear below the light wing ship. The sublight cruising speed is not as fast as the high-speed interceptor. The cooling time of the small jump engine is not short. They will not run too far. They will send back timely news."

"I understand!" The other party bowed his head slightly, and his attitude was still sincere.

Well, since the current situation is very detailed, we can only wait a little. Anyway, we are here, so we still have to do what we can do well.

Moreover, Yu Lian did leave enough time for the inspection work when he came to New Shenzhou this time.

So everyone took a short break.

Tianshu also sent tea and snacks. What Yu Lian cared about most was a plate of thinly sliced ​​braised beef. To be honest, the braised food was just the level of ordinary home-cooked dishes, but the meat was chewy and delicious, and the meaty aroma was fragrant. It felt that the protein content was more than six times that of ordinary beef.

After asking a little, I learned that the pioneers had opened up a small pasture on Tianshu No. 1, the holy planet called "Penglai", and tried to raise livestock.

Facts have proved that the things raised on the holy planet, whether crops or livestock, are full of vitality and spirituality.

These "little points" sent now are the first batch of agricultural products from Yaochi and the livestock that grew up there.

The scale of cultivation in Penglai is not too large at present, but the prospects are indeed promising. Mr. Qi really felt that if the war had not broken out, Penglai might have been able to provide special food for psychics in three to five years.

The future is promising! The future is promising!

So, everyone was looking forward to the future, but Yu Lian, who was busy with all kinds of affairs, could not sit still. He went to the commander of the New Shenzhou Guard Fleet, Brigadier General Ducas, to learn about the situation.

Brigadier General Ducas said: "Now, the New Shenzhou Guard Fleet can still mobilize six Sentinel-class arsenal ships and four Spartan-class frigates. After the star gate was opened, I have hit them all in Tianshu."

"The average age of these ships has exceeded that of my grandfather." Yu Lian sighed.

“…This is actually older than my grandfather.” Brigadier General Ducas, who is more than twice as old as Yu Lian, was helpless: “So I just deployed these fleets near the star gate. If there is a problem, I can use fierce firepower to cover it.”

As for the mobile forces, Brigadier General Ducas sold everything he had and scraped the ground to only save four destroyers. Although the age of the ships is not as old as that of Brigadier General Ducas’ grandfather, it is almost the same as his own, but it can still run. In addition, there are five newly manufactured torpedo ships, which are new ships.

“But if this number of troops passes the star gate and encounters any imperial patrol fleet, they will have no ability to protect themselves.” Yu Lian was still very impolite.

But what else can Brigadier General Ducas say? He could only express his determination and said, "Although the guard fleet is only a second-line local security force, it can fight to the death when it encounters the main fleet of the Imperial Army. The pioneers of the New Shenzhou are all good men, much tougher than those young men on Earth in the local fleet!"

"I was also born on Earth." Yu Lian looked at the other party with a smile.

Some people look like old-fashioned hardcore middle-aged uncles, but their career development is always unsatisfactory. Sure enough, we can't always look for reasons from the direction of society, right?

"Uh, sir, this... this subordinate does not mean that." Brigadier General Ducas said helplessly.

"Hahaha, so I just made a bad joke. Brigadier General, I don't need you to fight to the death, and I also hope that you can perform your duties and do a good job of guarding this side of the star gate." Yu Lian said.

Brigadier General Ducas did not hide his emotions and immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "To be honest, this subordinate is really afraid that you will order the guard fleet to pass through the star gate."

This person is indeed a real person.

Yu Lian said: "Reinforcements will come from the theater command."

Brigadier General Ducas immediately showed a touching expression of "I can't repay Commander Yu Lian's kindness."

In fact, after learning about the recovery of the star gate, Yu Lian had already sent a report to the theater command. It is difficult for the far shore to squeeze out a soldier at present, so he can only trouble Marshal Bonaparte in the direction of Nantianmen. He had just handed over all the new battle cruisers in his hands to Yu Lian, but now he is being fleeced again, which made the latter a little embarrassed.

However, now the enemy's land in front of Nantianmen has been burned to scorched earth, and that place serves as a large rear area and the second line of defense.

So, Marshal Bonaparte did not hesitate, and squeezed out two battle cruisers and two aircraft carriers from the gap in his pocket, and together with the remaining 67 small and medium-sized warships, he has set off from Nantianmen to the direction of New Shenzhou.

...Well, these warships have been in service for quite a while, but they are much tougher than the old ladies in the New Shenzhou Guard Fleet. They can be considered as old aunts, and they are still very capable.

Yu Lian felt that if he could contact Yang Xiyi, this amount of troops should be able to take on the task of receiving.

The half-hour break was over soon, but the report from Tianshu Laboratory certainly could not arrive on time as Xiaobai expected, and the atmosphere on the scene suddenly became a little heavy.

Yu Lian smiled and said, "This is actually good news. Of course, it can be said that the Lone Ranger is no longer in its original place and is moving closer to the depths of the Dawn Nebula. Of course, from the outside world's point of view, they are in the deepest part of the Dawn Star Region."

Everyone said that what the general said made sense, and the atmosphere naturally relaxed a little.

Of course, it can also be said that the Lone Ranger has been sunk, but it is estimated that even the person with the lowest emotional intelligence should not be able to say such a thing. But even so, it is inevitable that some people will have wild thoughts, and everyone is still a little panicked. Especially Xiaobai, who had a worried and anxious expression.

This child was indeed a child with obvious advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantage was that he could not hide his faults and had a baby-like herbivorous face, which always made him look easy to bully; the advantage was that he was actually a real man who would rather die than surrender, and he was also a genius engineer and scientist called "Big Skill Master No. 2" by Yu Lian, and a psychic who was not sure if he was a genius...

With this calculation, the disadvantages did not seem to be a big deal at all.

Then, less than an hour later, the report from the Lone Ranger finally came. Xiaobai, who had a very understanding face, let out a long sigh of relief.

They did receive a new report. Captain Bai and Lieutenant Piri of the Lone Ranger reported that they had now fled to the DL354 system.

The reason why the word "flee" was used was because the expedition ship did encounter the Imperial fleet on the way, so it had to deviate from the original planned trajectory and entered a state of evasion and escape.

Fortunately, the Imperial Army seemed to have not noticed the small boat at all, just like a pride of lions that didn't bother to pay attention to a passing mouse.

However, in the DL354 system, the Lone Ranger finally found the traces of Yang's fleet.
