[Interstellar] The king who doesn't want to return

The last battleship disappeared into the universe. There was silence on the Anyuan for a long time. Suddenly, cheers erupted. No matter what position they were in, they all hugged each other, crying and laughing.

"It succeeded..." Tu Hong sat down on the ground, unable to get up for a long time.

"Yeah, I didn't expect that we really held on." Zhao Min also simply sat down, back to back with him, with an incredible expression on his face, "We really pushed Ray Olins back."

"Hehe..." Tu Hong just laughed, but he didn't know what he was laughing at.

Starting from the Anyuan, the entire Federation Fleet fell into a sea of ​​joy.

"However, the war on that side has just begun." Zhao Min whispered.

Tu Hong glanced around, and didn't want to spoil the mood of the soldiers who were completely unaware, he also lowered his voice and said, "I hope that everything goes well with the Marshal."

"We have nothing to do here, we can only wish." Zhao Min sighed, and then smiled wryly, "The imperial army has retreated, but our task is not light."

"That's right." Tu Hong also said.

You must know that they fought and retreated all the way, burning the flames of war into the territory of the Federation. Now that the empire has returned to the army, it is not so easy to clean up the huge mess left behind.

However, fortunately, Tang Rui had absolute command during the war, otherwise, according to their behavior of deliberately preserving strength and attracting the enemy into the country, they would be able to add guilt to the previous defeat.

After a while, Tu Hong staggered up and opened his mouth to shout, but he couldn't make a sound after shouting a few times. Only then did he realize that he was too focused in the battle, and he had exhausted too much energy. Now not only did he stand up quickly Unsteady, even the voice is completely hoarse.

"Really, I'm old and useless." Zhao Min also got up, and the two looked at each other speechlessly.

At this moment, more than a dozen small images were cut on the big screen, which were sent from several other command ships.

The celebratory voice finally slowly quieted down.

"Report the situation." Zhao Min coughed twice and said in place of Tu Hong.

After the solution, the casualties reported by the various fleets made the final cheers completely disappear.

To be honest, this is really not a victory.

Even if Tang Rui was able to successfully provoke a civil war in the empire and let the battle last for several years, the federation was also seriously injured this time. For at least ten years, it could only cultivate its health and rest, and survived under the oppression of the empire.

Almost all of the huge fleet has been destroyed. It will take a long time for recruits to replenish and form a stable combat force. However, the interstellar warships and various military supplies that have been eliminated in the flames of war, according to the financial situation of the Federation, will not last for ten years. It cannot be restored to its pre-war size.

"It would be great if that kid came out earlier." Zhao Min couldn't help muttering.

Tu Hong didn't speak, just raised a finger and pointed at it.

"Hey..." Zhao Min let out a long sigh.

It's not that I don't know. When the army set off, who would have thought that it would be defeated suddenly?Before that, even if Tang Rui wanted to do something, the people above would not take it seriously.What's more, Tang Rui's temperament is not the kind of person who will be unyielding in the face of difficulties and devote himself to the country, and the Federation...is not qualified to ask him to do so.

When the army was defeated and the country collapsed, Tang Rui dared to stand up and clean up the mess, which was already very good.After all, in such a situation, it is simply beyond the power of the individual to turn the tide.However, Tang Rui came, as Ye Ling.

Even if he only gambled on a tiny bit of hope.

Regardless of the reason, in short, Tang Rui created the current situation that is acceptable to the Federation.

Boy, if you want to succeed, you must come back safely.

"Leo Olins has returned to the army." In the Imperial Hotel, Tang Rui also got the news immediately.

"His Royal Highness sent it?" Zhou Yuze stood behind his chair, bent slightly, and lay on his shoulders.

"Your Highness is in a hurry." Tang Rui smiled.

"Calculating the time, Lan Yao and the others have almost reached the meteor belt outside the planet Aivia," Zhou Yuze said.

"How to put it, that is also the most elite special operations team I have selected from the entire federal army. I believe they are capable of handling any unexpected incident." Tang Rui said, clapping his hands around his chest .

"En." Zhou Yuze nodded, simply grabbed his hand and played with it.

Tang Rui tugged, pulled him over, and sat directly on his lap.

Under various influences, when there were no outsiders, Zhou Yuze's shy personality had changed a lot, and he just froze slightly, so he let him hold her.

"Tu Shuai has completed what they can do. Although it is not perfect, it has reached the extreme. Even if I am here, it is impossible to do better than him." Tang Rui said in a deep voice, "So, now it's our turn Here, we must not let the old man's hard work be in vain."

"The whole army of Leo Lins will return to the imperial capital. It will take five days at most before they can reach the imperial capital. Although there are troops stationed in the empire, the situation is unclear. Except Elise's confidants, no one will be foolish enough to intercept the legitimate The first heir, Prince Lei Ao, who holds a heavy army. Therefore, his journey will be unimpeded." Zhou Yuze said.

"Indeed, if Elise wants to gain righteousness in her name, there is only one way." Tang Rui said.

"Before Lei Ao comes back, take the throne first." Zhou Yuze said in a deep voice.

"If you were Leo, what would you do?" Tang Rui asked.

"Taking advantage of Elise's unstable foundation, I will attack the imperial capital in one go." Zhou Yuze thought for a while, and then said clearly, "Leo is the number one heir to the empire, as long as he can kill Elise, we can guide public opinion." , It takes some time to eliminate the impact."

"Leo also thinks the same as you." Tang Rui nodded, but he was noncommittal.

"What will senior do?" Zhou Yuze heard disapproval from his words.

"Me?" Tang Rui sneered, "If it were me, I wouldn't return troops at all, but would directly hit the capital star and take down the Galactic Federation first!"

"But conquering the entire Federation will delay his time. In this way, Elise will have a chance to breathe. When Leo returns to the army, he will find it difficult to conquer the Imperial Capital." Zhou Yuze retorted.

"It won't take time to come back and clean up the civil strife in Elise and the imperial capital? Will it be easier to go back and fight the federation after the respite?" Tang Rui asked rhetorically.

"This..." Zhou Yuze was speechless.

"Although the reasoning is the same, there is a difference. Elise may be able to stabilize the imperial capital, but it will take ten or even decades for her to completely eliminate Leo's influence in the entire empire." Tang Rui said lightly, "It's also a chance to breathe, but you say, is it easier to fight the Empire or the Federation?"

Zhou Yuze opened his mouth, paused for a while, and then continued, "What about the public opinion of the empire?"

"What is public opinion?" Tang Rui curled his lips in disdain, and sneered, "The Federation is gone, and only Leo and Elise are left in the universe. As long as Leo kills Elise and ascends to the throne, the public opinion This kind of thing can be cleaned up slowly. Besides, even if everyone says that his throne has been wronged, so what? Can it make him lose a piece of meat? It’s just a winner and a loser.”

"But Leo didn't dare to go this way." Zhou Yuze said, "He's back."

"So..." Tang Rui's eyes flashed a flash of nostalgia, and he chuckled slightly, "Leo is very talented, he deserves the title of the Imperial Army God, but after all, he lost a few soldiers and left. The courage of the risky move, or perhaps, this is the limitation of being born in the royal family."

"Senior is the strongest." Zhou Yuze said.

"Yes, yes." Tang Rui smiled, and slapped his butt frivolously, "Get up, let's go out."

"Where are you going?" Zhou Yuze immediately jumped up.

"It's a bit embarrassing to keep waiting for the Queen to come down to invite you. Let's go buy some door-to-door gifts. Let's pay a visit." Tang Rui said, getting up and putting on his coat.

"Yeah." Zhou Yuze raised his eyebrows knowingly.

The visit is fake, but the ignition is real.After all, if Elise loses too quickly, their plan will be meaningless. Taking advantage of the civil war in the empire, Leo will be unable to send troops to the Federation for at least five years.

Although the buffer of five years is not enough, at least it is enough to parry.

Tang Rui is a man but not a god, so it is impossible to turn the world upside down.

If the federation is really doomed, he has no intention of dying for the country.

Do your best with no regrets.

After going out, Tang Rui knocked on the door next door again.

The driver who opened the door looked depressed, but there was nothing he could do. Anyway, his identity had been exposed long ago, and the princess had also ordered that the two distinguished guests not be neglected.

This time, the "door-to-door gift" that Tang Rui bought was...a big watermelon.

While the driver's face was twitching, Tang Rui walked into the gate with the watermelon in one hand and Zhou Yuze in the other.

"Both, congratulations." After glancing at the watermelon, Elise ignored it, and finally landed on their clasped hands and paired rings, smiling sweetly.

"Thank you." Tang Rui nodded, and handed the watermelon to the maid.

Elise's smile froze for a moment, and she waved her hand to signal everyone to go down.

"Your Highness, will you give me a red envelope?" Tang Rui held Zhou Yuze's hand and raised it, deliberately showing the rings on their ring fingers.

"How about I give an extra [-]% as a red envelope when these shipments arrive?" Elise said.

"Okay." Tang Rui shrugged.

What a pity, the red envelope flew away...

"You two came at the right time. Originally, I also wanted to treat you to dinner." Elise smiled.

"Your Highness's treat, we naturally appreciate it." Tang Rui said with a smile.

"Actually, I want to invite the two of you to attend my coronation ceremony." Elise put down the exquisite teacup, and said lightly.

"The enthronement ceremony?" Tang Rui couldn't help being taken aback, with genuine surprise flashing across his eyes.

Although he knew that Elise would definitely do this, he was still shocked by this woman's action and determination, and this quality of Elise, to a large extent, was exactly what Leo lacked.If...these two become one, the federation is really in danger.

The fire of this civil war must burn as big as possible.

In an instant, Tang Rui had a decision in his mind.

"Also, there is one more thing, I would like to ask Mr. Ling for help." Elise said.
