Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

"How's the situation?"

Youssel looked at Z on the hospital bed. He had fallen into a coma. Several doctors shook their heads feebly, and one of them said.

"Let everyone come and see him off for the last time."

Yussel's expression was solemn. He was feeling sad at this moment because Z was about to leave them. Yussel had known him for 4 years. In the past 4 years, Yussel had learned too much from Z. thing.

Yussel still clearly remembers that four years ago in Space Station No. 51, he was just an ordinary clerk, but he was involved in a dispute. Fortunately, Z helped him at that time. Since then, Yussel I started to pay attention to this man.

Until one day, he witnessed this man killing several people from the Star Force. He completely changed. He thought this man would kill him, but this man took him somewhere.

After learning that he was a clone, Yussel felt powerless for a time. He began to be autistic and even felt that such a life was meaningless, but the Z point awakened Yussel.

Yussel joined the clone front, and he knew exactly what he was fighting for.

After a while, the cadres came over, and everyone's expressions looked solemn. Now the entire clone front is discussing Helt's defection. This incident is quite shocking to the entire clone group now. .

Many people are saying that it was the constant pressure from the top management on Space Station 69 that led to Hult's defection.

The cadres were collectively silent. The defection of Space Station No. 69 led by Hult has now been settled. The clone front has returned to its former tranquility, and now the cadres will not force those space stations to pay some supplies.

Many people feel that it was because of Hult that the officials made changes.

A group of cadres gathered in front of the ward, waiting. Z's condition was getting worse and worse. His body values ​​were still declining, and he would die soon.

This kind of separation between life and death is very uncomfortable for the clones, because they are also creatures with emotions.

The clone cadres here are all second-generation cadres. Many of them grew up watching the first-generation cadres gradually die.

Everyone has grown up step by step under Z's teachings. Although their lives are running out, the current situation is better for them than before. They can gain a foothold on the moon. Stand firm.

The current situation is very good for their clone front, all thanks to the young Helt, but now they have completely separated from him, and the old Helt is almost dead.

At this time, there was a sound, and the cadres in the corridor fell into silence. The elderly Hert opened his eyes, and he seemed to want to speak, and then the doctor went in. After a while, the doctor called Yussel in.

Ussel sat on the edge of the bed, holding the hand of the old Helt, and the old Helt said with difficulty.

"give it to you!"

Ussel nodded, but the tears still fell. The old Hert held Ussel's hand tightly. Soon as the heart rate became a straight line, the old Hert closed his eyes.

The cadres in the corridor came in, and many of them started to cry. With the current situation, there was no time for them to grieve. Helt had planned everything before he left. Now the clone front must follow Helt's instructions. plans began to develop.

At this time, there was a burst of contact. It was people from the First Army of the Empire who came over and wanted to see the cadres immediately.

Yussel said after wiping his tears.

"Come on everyone, we have to get down to business now."

Everyone bowed and left. Now many people knew very well what they were going to do next.

After a while, a group of cadres came to the conference room. The people from the First Army who came this time were obviously different from before. There were more than ten people, and among them were people from the Second and Third Army.

"Your Majesty needs you now. He will immediately send people to investigate where Space Station No. 69 is."

After a non-commissioned officer finished speaking, Yussel smiled and said: "We are not subordinates of the empire, nor are we directly affiliated with the queen. Please change your tone."

Several noncommissioned officers had serious expressions, and the leader continued.

"You don't have the right to choose, you can only"

"You can continue to be arrogant and treat us as subordinates. But we also have the right to choose our own bosses, right?"

As soon as Yussel said this, more than a dozen non-commissioned officers of the Imperial Army seemed a little shocked. Yussel's meaning was obvious. At this time, the leading non-commissioned officer said.

"Are you just going to let the defectors go?"

Yussel suddenly slapped the table angrily and stood up. More than a dozen non-commissioned officers showed solemn expressions, and he spoke directly.

"Go back and tell the Queen that you will either give us full support or give up the negotiation and we will find others to cooperate. If you feel that you do not intend to cooperate with us but intend to order us, it does not matter even if it means starting a war."

Yussel took a tough stance, and then Maxi said.

"We are no one's slaves. Please understand this. If you still haven't figured it out, you can come over at any time. We don't have much time, and we are no longer afraid of destruction and death."

The sergeants' faces were ashen. They didn't know why the people on the clone front suddenly changed their faces, the leader of the sergeants said.

"Okay, I'll go back and tell the boss."

Then the non-commissioned officers turned and left. All the cadres looked very angry at this time. This condescending attitude was the reason for their anger. Hert had already said before leaving that after they defected, once the empire sends people over, They have to be tough and not give in at all. Only in this way can they develop.

If they act weak, they will be manipulated by the empire.

"Okay, everyone, sit down and let's have a meeting. The two mines are now stable. What we need now is a complete set of industrialization so that we can independently use raw materials to manufacture weapons and ammunition, as well as develop agriculture."

After Youssel finished speaking, everyone began to discuss. It was obvious that the empire's attitude toward them now was that they neither wanted them to develop well, but also wanted them to do things.

Such a best of both worlds is clearly not possible, Ussel said.

"Everyone, start making arrangements as soon as possible. We have to start moving the main base to other places."

In order to prevent the empire from launching a surprise attack one day and destroying the clone front in one fell swoop, Hult has discussed with the officials some places that are very suitable for building the main base. In the future, they will need to split the main base into these places.

As long as they can spread out, they don't need to fear any threats.

After several hours of discussion, Youssel decided on the current course of action, and they only needed to strictly implement it according to this plan.

"This is the end of the meeting. Everyone, we must work as soon as possible. We will win the third mine within the next month."

Yussel said, pulling up a map, which Hert had marked, the route to capture the mine. This is a small mine located more than 60 kilometers west of their main base. It is very easy to capture. As long as they send troops there, the mine should be evacuated.

There are some things densely marked on the map. This is the attack route discussed by Helt and the old Helt. In a few months, Helt will start to attack some facilities of the empire, and they must cooperate with Helt. action, taking action against the family's facilities.

After seizing the mines twice, the family probably no longer wants to continue fighting the clone front. They probably want to use Hult to contain the empire and their clone front.

But what they didn't know was that this was part of Helt's plan. The clone front would just advance to the west, while Helt would advance from the east, and there wouldn't be much intersection between the two.

"What we need now is to act steadily and completely cut off the empire's intention to destroy us."

All the cadres nodded one after another, and then everyone stood up and left the conference room, and began to work on their own. Yussel looked at the mountain base in front of him. This base was established eight years ago. When Yussel came here , the base is already what it is now.

Some memories kept coming back, Yusel closed his eyes and said.

"We don't have much time."

Now the cadres need to complete the strategy conceived by Hert on the one hand, and on the other hand they must start cultivating the third generation of cadres. These cadres will be selected from the space stations that have landed, and from those clones that have just been cloned. There's still plenty of time.

Now Yussel has drawn up a list, which is why he personally went to the space station to assign tasks. The most important thing is to see if any of these fresh clones can serve as cadres.

The negotiations with the family have also ended. The family will exchange materials with them for resources. The resources in the two mines already belong to the clone front.

Regarding the mine being taken away, the family members were obviously more concerned about the power struggle within the empire.

"It all started."

Yussel said, turning and walking towards the only factory in the cave. He now had to discuss with the technicians and start splitting the factories into the wilderness, so that they would not collapse directly when they were attacked by the empire in the future.

At this time, more than 50 kilometers away from the clone front base to the south, a fleet was docked on the sand dunes.

"It looks like it's what you thought."

Nigel said after listening to an adjutant reporting the situation. Hert's face was solemn, and the attitude of the clone front suddenly became tougher, completely different from before.

"What about their demands?"

Hurt asked.

"They said they just wanted to work together, not be subordinate to us."

Helt stood up and Nigel laughed and said.

"These guys really dare to do it, but there is nothing we can do now. We can only agree to their request, give them enough weapons and ammunition, and let them continue to seize some family mines."

Hurt fell into deep thought, and after a while he spoke.

"You go ahead and listen to their requests."

The adjutant nodded and turned to leave, Nigel smiled.

"They're definitely going to have their mouths open."

Hult hummed. He had a very deep understanding of the current situation. If they did not allow the clone front to develop, the harm to the family would be minimal. But once Space Station 69 develops, their impact on the empire would be Facilities on the lunar surface can cause very serious hazards.

"The chess game has begun, and we can no longer stay on our own, let alone develop as we want."

After Nigel finished speaking, he looked at the now captured take-off and landing points on the map and said.

"This place is currently stocked with many clone front soldiers. If they cooperate with the family, they can directly threaten a granary of the empire."

Nigel drew a line on the map, and Hurt nodded.

"What do you think they'll want?"

Nigel laughed.

"You should know better than me."

Helt said after sitting down, looking a little unhappy.

"They will want a complete industrial system, a food production system, and a complement of human clones. Once they get these in a few years, this disaster will last for a long time."

Nigel shook his head.

"But if the strength of the family is not destroyed, they will definitely try every means to override their power. Do you think what will happen to this empire if any of its current founders comes to power?"

Hurt nodded. He knew very well that if any of the founders came to power now, the country would be finished and would forever be in the hands of capital.

"I have prepared everything. Although it is some older mechanical equipment, they should be very satisfied."

Hurt nodded.

"It's better to ship it directly. Continuing to delay is not an option. We have to get them to move as soon as possible. The situation in China is not optimistic."

The two originally planned to rest for a few days, but after the Queen's large-scale investigation, many families united and began to fight back against the Queen's investigation.

In the Moon City, only the central area among the ten areas was relatively stable, while large-scale protests and demonstrations had broken out in the other nine areas.

The family began to cut off supplies, and many daily necessities experienced skyrocketing prices and goods were out of stock. This was not due to problems with the raw materials caused by the clone front's attacks on the mines, but because the family members had done so deliberately.

Now the family's ambitions have become more and more obvious. The founders have been constantly making trouble in Congress. Now the queen's status is in jeopardy. Their next step is to force the queen to abdicate. If the queen does not abdicate, such a severance will It will break out every once in a while.

"We've reached a point where we're struggling."

After Nigel finished speaking, Helt smiled.

"This situation will be reversed within a month."
