Spy Family

"Sister Zhen has not changed at all." Lu Linbei whispered, not worried about her safety, and turned around to return to his mission.

This is a converted basement, hidden and solid, filled with machines, leaving only a one-meter-wide passage in the middle, like a metal cave.

Besides Lu Linbei, there were five people in the room. Four of them were each in charge of a stall. They were all staring at the monitor nervously and performing some operations from time to time. There was also one person who was walking back and forth like a supervisor, issuing instructions from his mouth. He muttered softly, looking more nervous than the others.

"Dr. Dong, it's still early, you should take a rest." Lu Linbei advised. He is the most leisurely person here and does not need to stare at a certain monitor.

Dong Tianchai strode over and stood beside Lu Linbei, with his hands on his hips and his eyes full of anger, as if a good dream had been disturbed, "If it doesn't work, it definitely won't work."

"Gotta give it a try."

"Try it with tens of thousands of lives?"

"There are not that many people. Shi Liangbi is a picky commander-in-chief. There are less than 1,500 residents on board the ship and about 5,000 soldiers. They are all elites he considers."

"That's still 6,500 lives, no different from tens of thousands."

"Well, there is no difference. What we are doing now is no different from killing soldiers on the battlefield."

"There is a difference, it's a big difference..." Dong Tianchai did not explain the difference in detail. He looked anxious and annoyed, and his face turned slightly red.

Lu Linbei must persuade Dong Tianchai, "This is to save more people. Dr. Dong has already seen Shi Liangbi's plan. He wants to lure the independent army into the city and then wipe it out in one fell swoop. That's not six thousand five hundred people." people, but ten times that number, or even more.”

"I understand, I understand, but..."

"This is war."

Dong Tianchai sighed dejectedly, "That's why I don't want to get involved. War is always... so cruel. It's nothing more than comparing which side is less cruel."

"Shi Liangbi's cruelty has no limit. Even if there is only one bullet left in his hand, he will shoot at the crowd without hesitation."

"It's better to kill him directly, there will be fewer casualties and more saved."

"It's useless. Minister Qiu and the others used a computer program to analyze it. Part of the program was written by Dr. Dong. The conclusion is very clear. Shi Liangbi's plan has advanced to the final stage and has penetrated into the minds of every officer on the staff. He is dead. After that, no matter who the successor is, they will continue to implement similar plans under the promotion of the staff. This is not the whim of one person, but the determination of an army. There is only one solution: defeat this army. Instead of killing his commander-in-chief, leaving Shi Liangbi without bullets is much more effective than getting rid of him directly."

"The 'bullets' you mentioned are all live people."

"Not necessarily. The best result is not to cause too many casualties, or even no casualties. As long as Dr. Dong can control the two ground-to-air spaceships and successfully seize the space station, Shi Liangbi will have no 'bullets' to use. By then, he will Accept negotiations."

"Control a spaceship without killing the passengers inside?"

"This is the best result. If the struggle for control is not smooth, then destroying the ground-to-air spacecraft is the second option. It is at least not the worst result."

"I want the best outcome."

"Let's work together." Lu Linbei said with a smile.

Dong Tianchai squeezed out a movement that sounded like a smile but not like a smile, "Let's go over the plan again."

"good."

"The first step is to build a network center in Paradise City. It has been completed. When the time comes, we can release the drones and form a network."

"Well, this step is all due to Dr. Dong. You have worked hard for this for a month."

"That's nothing." Dong Tianchai waved his hand, really not caring, "The second step is that our network must be connected to the network of Uranus. From this point on, we will encounter the first difficulty. The war is going on. Now, the network protection level of Dawang is very high, and they have also cut off the public network and only retain the military's private network, making it more difficult to intrude."

"Leave this step to me. Network offense and defense have reached a state of balance, and it is difficult to determine the winner. I will use more traditional methods to connect the two networks together."

"Now can you tell me what the 'traditional means' are? Let me gain a little more confidence."

Lu Linbei took a look at the four technicians who were busy working and felt that there was no need to hide it anymore, "The traditional method is to recruit intelligence agents from within the enemy, ask them to cooperate, and open a backdoor to make Dr. Dong's intrusion process easier. Get in."

"you made it?"

"certainly."

Dong Tianchai let out a long breath, "What level is the other party? If it's just a guard, it won't be helpful to me."

Lu Linbei smiled and said: "The level must be higher than that of the guards, and there is more than one person, all of whom are technicians. They are willing to help, not for money or fame, but simply to end the war as soon as possible. They sympathize with the Zhao Wangxing people , and at the same time, we don’t want the Uranians to continue taking risks.”

"Do they know your 'second option'?" Dong Tianchai asked coldly.

Lu Linbei shook his head, his expression unchanged, "They don't know."

"So if they have to implement the second option, they will also die in the spaceship?"

"Yes."

Dong Tianchai was silent for a while, "You are much more cruel than you were a year ago."

"War changes everything, including people. Dr. Dong was on the plane when the nuclear missile exploded over Guangyuan City. What did you think at that time?"

Dong Tianchai was silent for a longer time. The explosion had an unspeakable and profound impact on him and all the members of the Independence Army on the plane. Everyone thought that they had chosen a life. Before the plane landed, they all swore together that they would Dedicating the rest of his life to achieve one goal: defeating the Uranian army.

"There are no more nuclear weapons on Uranus..." Dong Tianchai murmured.

"But they have laser weapons. Although they are small in number, they have an overwhelming absolute advantage. The same conclusion reached by computer analysis: If laser weapons are used to attack Guangye Farm on Zhaowang Planet, we will have no ability to protect ourselves. Half Within this month, more than 80% of the farms will be paralyzed. A month later, King Zhao will face an energy crisis. In three months at most, all power will be exhausted. However, King Zhao can still obtain a steady supply of power by relying on the space station. "

"I believe in the analytical capabilities of computers, but I always find it a bit...unbelievable. Everyone says that the King of Kings is seizing King Zhao for First Light and destroying all the farms. What can First Light get? A useless planet."

"This is a big gamble. King Zhao is betting that the people of King Zhao will not last until the end. After the first batch of farms are paralyzed, all forces in King Zhao will fall into chaos. When half of the farms are destroyed and the energy crisis is imminent, King Zhao The Stars will voluntarily surrender, and as a price, the Independent Army will be massacred again."

"This is the best outcome in the eyes of the Uranians."

"Yes, this is the nature of war. Each side is striving for the best outcome for themselves."

Dong Tianchai finally showed a real smile, "Am I doing something for you?"

"Well, Dr. Dong works for me, and I bear all moral responsibilities. You only need to do the technical things."

"Thanks."

"Why is Dr. Dong so polite?" Lu Linbei said with a smile.

"Thank you for being willing to take on these responsibilities. It's not that I don't want to... I admit that I am relatively weak in this area and far inferior to you."

"We all have our own strengths. I am more hard-hearted. Dr. Dong is unparalleled in professional aspects."

"I only care about professional matters." Dong Tianchai returned to normal and strode towards the four assistants to discuss the details and prepare for the upcoming "battle".

Lu Linbei often has similar conversations with Dong Tianchai. This is one of his jobs and a very important part.

He didn't like this kind of thing. Dong Tianchai was like a "conscience" in human form, always asking the most difficult-to-explain questions straightforwardly. After the conversation, he was relieved, but the other party was in trouble.

Lu Linbei's method of coping was to refuse to think deeply. He drew an area in his heart and circled all the thoughts that should not have occurred. For him, persuading Dong Tianchai was just a way of talking. He said No matter how reasonable his words may sound, they will never enter his own heart.

War requires action.

Someone knocked on the door outside, using a code word. Lu Linbei stood up to greet him.

A man stood outside with a serious expression. He nodded, handed over a ring, turned and left without saying a word.

Lu Linbei returned to his seat, checked the contents of the memory, looked at it for a while, and said loudly: "Dr. Dong!"

Dong Tianchai came over and recognized what it was just by looking at it. He raised his hand and patted Lu Linbei hard on the shoulder, "This is the network roadmap of the Uranus military. With it, the success of the invasion will be greatly improved." It’ll add a few points.”

"The back door I promised will still be there."

"I really wonder how you can buy so many intelligence agents? And they all hold very important positions."

"The number is not large, and it is not bribery. Every intelligence agent has his own reasons, and money is definitely not one of them."

"I used the wrong word." Dong Tianchai walked back happily, retrieved the information Lu Linbei had just obtained, and reviewed and analyzed it with four assistants to fine-tune the intrusion program.

Someone knocked on the door again. The person who came was Ma Juntu. He straightened his body outside the door and gave a military salute. "Miss Miao has been sent home. Shi Liangbi has indeed taken action in advance. The soldiers of King Star are picking people up all over the city."

"Very good. Go to this address. The next task is to let more people know about Uranus' plan, especially those who are not on the list. They should fight for their own rights to board the ship."

Ma Juntu smiled. Unlike Dong Tianchai, he had no psychological barriers to his task and was full of confidence and enthusiasm. "The mutual aid group will definitely complete the task successfully."

Lu Linbei nodded with a serious look on his face. He rarely used pretense towards Ma Juntu and always dealt with business matters.

Not long after Ma Juntu left, Zhu Canchen came back. He didn't knock on the door, but opened the door and walked into the house. He walked to Lu Linbei and stood there silently.

"Where is the real team leader?"

"We should go find Miao Ruofeng. There are too many soldiers there and I can't follow them."

"The real team leader has her own ideas, let her do it."

"Before the public network was cut off, I received a message from Intelligence Agent No. 9. He said -" Zhu Canchen leaned forward slightly and lowered his voice: "His authority has been withdrawn and he can no longer help."

Lu Linbei's heart sank slightly. The "back door" he promised was all based on this intelligence agent, but now it has come to nothing. This is the first bad news for the entire plan.
