At this time, Yang Yi finally understood why the relationship between Zhan Ruilin and the Hidden Spirits had taken a turn for the worse after the Fifth Greenwich War. In another position, if it was Yang Yi, after seeing through the hypocritical faces of the top civilization, he would definitely make the same choice.
The question is, is it wise to do so
If it's just an individual, there is nothing to blame. However, Zhan Ruilin is the commander of the third theater, one of the nine most influential marshals in the human confederation. His every move can never be regarded as a personal act, and his break with the Heavenly Sage Emperor means that the Human Federation, at least the Third War Zone, breaks with the Hidden Spirit Race. If the war breaks out again, without the support of the Hidden Spirit Race, the Human Federation will definitely be more fortunate.
Thinking of this, Yang Yi sighed secretly.
"Actually, all we need is time."
"Marshal..."
"You have to believe that as long as there is enough time, mankind will definitely be able to surpass the seven top civilizations." Zhan Ruilin probably feels that Yang Yi has been hit and needs encouragement. "More than a thousand years ago, I was a soldier. When I was about the same as you now, I had a question. For thousands of years, after experiencing several full-scale wars, the nearby powerful civilizations fell one by one to the enemy. Under the iron hoof, why did the seemingly weak human confederation not only suffered from annihilation, but also became the only civilization in the south of the Greenwich Meteor Belt? Could it be said that human beings are born for war, or human beings and Are there differences in other civilizations?"
Yang Yi was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Zhan Ruilin in surprise.
"Obviously, you have similar questions."
"Marshal, the answer to this question..."
"I don't know, nor can I say it clearly. However, one person knows, and you know it."
"Who?"
Zhan Ruilin smiled faintly, and said: "Wait, Lin Xiaoting will arrange a task for you, and see me again after it's finished. Then we will discuss the matter of going to Yinlingxing to go to the appointment. However, I suggest that you do it before performing the task. Go home and have a look. You have been in the army for a while, so it's time to go back and see."
Yang Yi was taken aback again, wondering why Zhan Ruilin had to change the subject.
However, Zhan Ruilin didn't explain much. After speaking, he sat on the sofa and waved his hand to signal Yang Yi to salute and leave.
Doubts turned to doubts, Zhan Ruilin issued an order to chase off the guests, and Yang Yi was not so cheeky to stay away.
Lin Xiaoting and Lin Liexun did not leave, but waited outside.
Seeing Yang Yi coming out, Lin Xiaoting gave Lin Liexun an order and let Lin Liexun take Yang Yi away.
"Colonel..."
"The mission has come down. You will lead the team to the Greenwich Meteorite Belt to investigate the situation and obtain evidence of the Silicon Charm Alliance launching an offensive. I have contacted the Third Fleet and Du Wantu will fully support it. Because it is only a reconnaissance operation, and it is related to whether to proceed. War mobilization, so you have to act low-key. According to Lin Shuai's instructions, you can only bring a small team. I call all the personnel of the special investigation team and you choose."
Yang Yi was stunned for a while, as if Lin Liexun had already made arrangements.
"Time is pressing. The Shadow is ready. After selecting the personnel, it will set off immediately."
"What about the plan?"
"Plan?" Lin Liexun glanced at Yang Yi and said, "You are the commander of this operation, so you decide what to do. I only provide support and guarantee."
Yang Yi is very speechless and has nothing to say.
"Boy, this is a task that Lin Shuai personally arranged. It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you successfully complete the task, you will definitely become a martyr after you return. Even if you fail, you will be chased as a martyr. To put it bluntly, everyone else wants to have such an opportunity in their dreams, you Don't know how to praise."
"Uncle Qi, this obviously pushed me into the pan."
"Come on, it's just a reconnaissance mission, and it's not a big deal. Besides, Du Wantu led the Third Fleet to oppose the formation, no matter how bad it is."
"Do you think I can count on Du Wantu?"
"Don't say it, you really have to count on him."
"What's the meaning?"
Lin Liexun smiled and patted Yang Yi's shoulder a few times. "I know, you have had a relationship with Du Wantu. To be honest, I found it a long time ago. Du Wantu was the one who threw you on the Lava Star. It's just that you should be clear about public and private, and you can't hold grudges for private enmity. mind."
"According to you, do I have to thank him?"
"you can say so."
Yang Yi rolled his eyes and really didn't know which end Lin Liexun belonged to.
"In Du Wantu's habitual style of doing things, if you have no value, he will kill you directly instead of throwing you on the lava star where the bird does not shit."
"value?"
"Do you know why he did this? At that time, your surveillance post No. 7777 was attacked. After receiving the signal from the Fissot, Du Wantu led the fleet in the first time. Of course. , Not to save people, but to obtain evidence that the Silicon Magic Alliance launched a war. In other words, he is a full-fledged war madman who has been encouraging the Federation to mobilize war ahead of time, and even advocated preemptive strikes. Before that, he was like this. People are not welcome, not to mention the wine and rice bags of the federal authorities, even in the war zone, no one supports him. But now, we need people like him, and he needs us."
"As long as he can get evidence of starting a war, he will cooperate with us?"
Lin Liexun nodded. "Du Wantu is a very simple person. What he wants is war, not someone to replace, let alone usurp power. Besides, if it weren't for his gift, how could you meet Princess Sika on Lava Star? How can there be subsequent experiences?"
"Uncle Seven..."
"As long as there is no harm to the overall situation, you will find Du Wantu to settle the account. I not only have no objection, but also fully support it. But now, I hope you can put the overall situation first.
Yang Yi sighed secretly, nodded and agreed.
"Okay, you can talk to the captain, and I'll bring the others over."
When Yang Yi was sent outside the cabin where Lin Feng was, Lin Liexun said goodbye and left.
Seeing Lin Feng, Yang Yi roughly recounted the meeting with Zhan Ruilin. Lin Feng was very surprised, but after thinking about it, she didn't feel any need to make a fuss.
"Lin Shuai asked me to go home and have a look first, and also mentioned that he was old acquaintance with my grandpa."
"I just said casually, or..."
"Special mention."
"This… "
Yang Yi exhaled and said, "Although Lin Shuai didn't say it clearly, there must be a reason. Anyway, I have to go back and talk to Grandpa."
"In that case, let's start early."
"There must be a very important reason for this." Yang Yi gritted his teeth and said, "The things about me, especially the secrets of me, should not be known to too many people. Although Uncle Qi asked me to select personnel, I I don't think this is necessary, just call Jackson and the others."
"This… "
"If it's just a reconnaissance operation, the problem won't be too big. Even if it's not, there will be the Third Fleet. Besides, Jackson and the others need a chance to perform."
After pondering for a while, Lin Feng nodded and said, "You think it's fine. I have no opinion. It's just that I can't let other people sit idle. Anyway, I am the captain of the special investigation team. If you are partial to the newcomer, definitely It will cause criticism, and it is best for everyone to benefit from this action."
"Let them follow the fleet and be responsible for responding."
"all?"
Yang Yi nodded and said: "Since it is to take credit, everyone has a share. Besides, if the Third Fleet is required to come forward, the more manpower the better."
"Well, I'll go talk to them."
"Okay, I'll go to Jackson and the others, and I will meet up directly on the "Shadow" in a while."
After making the deal, the two moved separately.
Yang Yi didn't delay much, found Jackson and others, and after confirming that Jackson's injuries were not serious, he took them to the "Shadow". More than ten minutes later, Lin Feng also rushed over. Although several squadron leaders had some complaints, they did not make Lin Feng feel embarrassed.
After reporting to Lin Liexun, Yang Yi issued a sailing order to Allen.
Destination: Burial Star.
It was a distant colonial planet, about a hundred light-years away from Shennong Star, just south of the Greenwich Meteorite Belt, and like Shennong Star, it was also the "trophies" of the Human Federation in the Greenwich War. After the first Greenwich War thousands of years ago, it was assigned to the Human Federation. Just like this, the Burial Star is one of the longest deadly demands of the human federation.
Unfortunately, a long history does not mean prosperity.
Because of over-exploitation, the resources of Burial Stars were exhausted more than a thousand years ago. Although it was a blessing in disguise, during the Fifth Greenwich War, Burial Star not only was not invaded, but also ushered in a short-lived prosperity, but the harsh living environment made all this seem like a passing smoke. Before the end of the Fifth Greenwich War, as the human federation regained its lost ground, the Burial Star was abandoned by the war Nan Ming.
Of course, for Yang Yi, these are all the past.
In Yang Yi's cognition, Bone Bone Star is a garbage dump dedicated to scum. Although the environment is pretty good, not as bad as Lava Star, but those who have the conditions, without exception, want to leave Bone Burying Star. In fact, this is also the ideal that Yang Yi has set up since he was a child.
Simply put, the Bone Burying Star is a sinful star.
On this highly developed and thoroughly urbanized planet, more than 80% of the residents are criminals or fugitives, with at least criminal convictions. It is rare to be able to get out of the silt without being stained. Without the strict discipline of his grandfather, Yang Yi might not even be able to pass the conscription review.
It can be said that Yang Yi's sturdy nerve and the virtue of bluffing are closely related to the environment in which he grew up.
When the "Shadow" rushed out of the jumping channel and saw the bright planet ahead, Yang Yi had a special feeling in his heart.
When signing up to join the army, Yang Yi secretly vowed to return home without clothes or a shroud in horse leather. The former is definitely not mentioned, and the latter can only be said to be reluctant.
"Coming?"
Looking back at Lin Feng, Yang Yi's mood suddenly improved a lot.
Although the rank of captain is a bit hard to get, but taking a flowery daughter-in-law back, it must be very face, and it will make people envy the beauty of death.
