After being able to stand up, Gavin, who was physically disabled and strong, began to deal with related official duties.
The original members of the 149th Fleet were not one in ten.When we got together, more than 90 people lined up together. It was sad to see that it was not as big as a military training team.
But the momentum is full.
We were all in the dark together before, and the situation was urgent, and Gavin didn't have time to take a closer look.Now standing under the incandescent lamp, everyone is fat and strong, which is very satisfying to watch.
Gavin also noticed that the reconnaissance platoon had two fewer members out of fourteen.
Probably because his gaze stayed too long, Si Kang took the initiative to explain: "Before retreating, when they were about to be overtaken, they took the initiative to apply for cover. Then they never came back."
Si Kang has also been on the battlefield for six or seven years, but obviously he has no way to see through life and death. When he speaks, his voice trembles violently, as if he is about to cry at any time.
Gavin sighed inwardly.
"Understood. The current organization will remain unchanged, and we will reorganize after we reach Gele Star."
In his current state, he needs ships but not ships, and people... There are not many people, and he is only a little better than the bare commander.
Not to mention making great achievements, even contracting the canteen is not enough.
A day later, the transport ship finally landed on Gele Star.
As a living planet with a small number of fourteen galaxies, it has also become the rear of this battlefield. Now the airport of Gele Star is extremely busy.Countless fleets take off and land every day.
The original government building in the first district of Gele Star was forcibly requisitioned and became a command tower for the military headquarters. The nearby civilians were even isolated, leaving a vacuum.
These civilians did not even receive any compensation when they were forced to evacuate, only a flimsy IOU from the military, promising to compensate after the war.
The local officials of Gele star were miserable about this. After all, it was not known how long it had been since the war compensation was settled. The cost of post-war reconstruction must still be paid by the local finance.
The person responsible for meeting them is You Ziyin.
Gavin didn't expect to see him here again, and was pleasantly surprised for a while, but what bothered him afterwards was another matter.
Gavin turned his head and said to You Ziyin thoughtfully, "I thought you would follow Qingyi."
After all, when he was still in school, You Ziyin said more than once that he wanted to be Qingyi's adjutant.
You Ziyin: "I would like to, but my parents don't agree, so that's it."
His tone was sad like a little mandarin duck being beaten by his parents.
When he got to a place where there were fewer people, You Ziyin's expression suddenly sank.
"The supreme commander here is Li Qingzhou...he has the highest authority, so he has become a temporary commander." He said, "Moreover, the only order given to us is to protect Li Qingzhou's safety, and our task does not include guarding the Gele Starfield. "
...was truly astounding.
"Really." After a moment of silence, Gavin asked lightly.
The information he revealed was enough. You Ziyin still had a lot of business to deal with, so he sent Gavin to the camp and left in a hurry.
The other fleets have ships, but because the starship has not yet been approved, Gavin's team only has a wide open space, not even a place to live.
So Gavin had no choice but to organize his soldiers to set up camp first.
The fleet next door didn't go on a mission today, and it was the first time I saw my peers whose ships were gone. They stood in a row on the deck to watch the excitement, and only had to say "wonderful" with popcorn in their arms.
"Hey, where is the ship of this fleet?"
"Captured, or blown up, who knows?"
"It's so miserable, I suddenly feel that our team is doing well..."
Don't say it, it's embarrassing.
Yun Zhong looked at his captain sadly, with a hint of anticipation in his sorrow: "Can you urge the logistics department? When will we get another patrol ship?"
Not to mention, the bearded Yun Zhong spoke like that...it's really shabby.
Gavin replied without changing his face: "A reminder, I will make a reminder today."
Si Kang, who was trying to make fire to bake bread, squeaked at this moment: "Captain! Someone is looking for you!"
Jia Wen thought to himself that someone who is unfamiliar with the place here would come to him, but when he turned around, he saw New Year's Eve.
It was the first time he had seen him put on the officer's uniform of the Third Regiment on New Year's Eve.
The military ranks of the two people are the same, so the military uniforms they wear are not bad. The standard configuration is an officer's uniform with epaulettes and white gloves.
A good-looking person looks good even in a sack.Not to mention that this military uniform is quite energetic.
An obvious smile suddenly appeared on Gavin's face.
He stood up, then walked over, and asked him in a low voice: "Why are you here?"
Gavin took his hand.He slipped his gloved hand through the wrist opening of New Year's Eve's glove, and then clasped New Year's Eve's knuckles.
New Year's Eve's fingers trembled, but he didn't break free.
There are no calluses or scars on New Year's Eve's hands. The fingers are slender but not thin. It should feel good to hold.
Gavin suddenly felt that wearing gloves was a waste of money.
New Year's Eve blinked and replied in a low voice: "I just finished my work and came to see you."
"That's not what I meant." Gavin stared at New Year's Eve's golden eyes and forced him to look at himself. His tone was not serious, but he sounded very persistent, "I want to ask, why did you come Fourteen galaxies."
It stands to reason that at this time of New Year's Eve, he should still be in the rear, working as a secretary for Xun Liangzhou, waiting for promotion, instead of leading the team to the front.
In fact, Gavin already knew the answer.
It's nothing more than worrying about him.
In fact, Gavin has gradually come to accept that New Year's Eve has become better than him, and sometimes he thinks bitterly whether he has raised a golden thigh, but in his heart, he still doesn't want to see New Year's Eve become better than him. risky.
It's like seeing him in trouble even on New Year's Eve.
No matter how powerful New Year's Eve is, Gavin will never forget how the little ball of New Year's Eve lay in his palm and called him "papa" limply and crying.
He wanted to protect him when he had nothing at the beginning, and it is naturally the same now.This has become his instinct.
Hearing Gavin's question, New Year's Eve's eyes suddenly began to wander, he hesitated and couldn't say a word for a long time.
At this moment, the person who clasped his fingers restlessly rubbed the skin on the base of his fingers. The skin from the gap felt strange, crisp and numb, and he almost couldn't hold it back. Withdrew his hand.
Before New Year's Eve had time to think of a reason, the prompt sounded from the personal terminal saved him in time.
He immediately withdrew his hand as if he was saved, and read the news in a panic.
"Send a message to inform me to hold a meeting... saying that they are going to discuss the next strategic arrangement." After thinking for a moment on New Year's Eve, he said, "Would you like to listen to it with me?"
He knew that Song Shaoyu gave Gavin a very high level of authority, so high... Except for the military headquarters, he can enter almost anywhere without hindrance.
Gavin didn't refuse, after all, he really wanted to know what the higher-ups were planning to do.
So the two of them changed the subject at the same time, and began to exchange information.
"The battle outside is actually not very good, more losses than wins, but the overall defense line has not yet collapsed, and I don't know how long the fight will last. General Xun looks at the empty warehouse and his hair is turning gray..."
"The commanders of the five armies, except for Chen Siwei who are still guarding the front line, the other four are all on the battlefield outside the territory. The news of that level is too high, I don't know the specific situation.
What I can know is that the Zerg side has already lost the Holy Order, and I am a little worried about the teacher. "
"Energy stones are getting more and more expensive, and now the supply of energy stones is temporarily stopped in the school...to prevent people from reselling and speculating on prices."
……
The two of them went all the way to the highest floor of the command tower.
After swiping the card, the door opened towards them, and the goal was a wide corridor, at the end of which was today's meeting room.
There were only twelve people sitting in the huge conference room.Gavin glanced around calmly, and found that he only knew Li Qingzhou who was sitting in the front.
In addition, there is a dark-skinned young man who looks familiar... I just can't remember where I met him.
Probably because he didn't expect to see Gavin here, Li Qingzhou's expression was a little surprised.
He was surprised at the speed of the rescue team, but he didn't know that the reason why he came back so quickly had nothing to do with the support he sent.
Waiting for the transfer order from the headquarters, waiting for the general to receive the mission, the logistics department getting ready, and finally sending the fleet to rescue... After this lengthy procedure, it is enough to break through the opponent on New Year's Eve.
Obviously, after ordering to go down, Li Qingzhou didn't pay attention to the progress, and no one even came to report to him.
Gavin didn't think too much, he calmly followed the New Year's Eve and took his seat.
Including New Year's Eve and Gavin here, there are a total of fourteen participants, each of whom has a photon screen in front of them, and can look up information.
So Gavin inserted his military ID card and flipped through the information on the screen.
The first thing to look at is the news sent back by the scout ship ahead.
...Well, the army of the Zerg is mainly in the southwest direction, guarding the star field passages in the Gele star field and other places in the fourteen galaxies.
Because the front line is tight, the Zerg recently secretly transferred some starships back...
But there are still a lot of starships left in the Gele Starfield.
After finding that everyone was present, Li Qingzhou began to speak.
"This is Lieutenant Lin, who was sent by the empire to support." Li Qingzhou smiled and introduced New Year's Eve, who had just entered the arena. "He is the adopted son of Marshal Song."
Everyone here suddenly showed a look of enlightenment, and their expressions were much gentler.
Another old man spoke. The epaulets he wore were the unified army ranks of the empire, and his surname was Zhou.
Captain Zhou said: "Your Highness, what about this one...?" He looked at Gavin.
Li Qingzhou narrowed his eyes slightly, and then said very calmly: "I don't know either, maybe it's Lieutenant Lin's adjutant."
This was obviously talking nonsense with open eyes, and it could be seen that His Highness did not introduce Gavin's plan by the way...or rather, he really wanted to see what Gavin planned to do.
After hearing the reply, the old man showed a look of "as expected".
After all, Gavin looks really too young now.
So, he simply passed Gavin and asked about the New Year's Eve at the side.
"Lieutenant Lin," the captain said with a serious frown, "this meeting is mainly to decide the future strategic plan, in order to avoid unnecessary leaks, do you think we should let the idlers with insufficient authority leave?"
His words are actually not unreasonable, but his tone is a bit aggressive, yin and yang, and it is very shocking to listen to.
New Year's Eve opened his mouth to say something, but was stopped by Gavin raising his hand.
He looked at Captain Zhou with a smile, and asked, "How can I have enough authority?"
Probably because he didn't expect to be attacked again, Captain Zhou's expression is not very good-looking.
The captain snorted coldly, "Look at your age, at most you just graduated from the military academy, and you have never seen you in the central command tower of Gele Star before, so you must have come with Lieutenant Lin?"
"Yes." Gavin replied.
Ashamed to say, he was still rescued... If he hadn't come on New Year's Eve, he would still be eating tree bark with his team members on the asteroid.
"At your age, unless you are a special imperial officer like Lieutenant Lin," the old man surnamed Zhou continued, with a look of admiration on his face, and he made a bow in the air, "or like Lieutenant Chen, There is a special permit from the Marshal. You are eligible to sit with us, get it..."
……?
The words of the old man surnamed Zhou stopped abruptly, and shock and bewilderment flashed alternately on his face.
Because at the same time as he heard his words, Gavin suddenly took out a black card and threw it on the table with a "snap".
He didn't seem to use any force, but the small black card was slammed into the long alloy table abruptly, and the indestructible alloy sank like cheese with hot oil.
"Sorry... I just got promoted, so I didn't pay attention." Gavin said what he said from the bottom of his heart, but judging from the expressions of other people, it seemed that he didn't quite believe it.
He looked at the captain and asked earnestly and sincerely, "Is this the special license you mentioned?"
The people around were a little dumbfounded.
The special license is very difficult to forge, and there is a special magnetic card inside, basically you only need to swipe to know if it is genuine.
Moreover, forging a special license is subject to court-martial.In this case, there should be no head-scratching.
Still feeling lucky, the captain said, "It's still time to check..."
The dark-faced young man who had been silent all this time spoke up: "It's true."
He had a special permit from Chen Siwei, and he could tell at a glance that Gavin hadn't cheated.
He could even vaguely discover based on the code... It is also a special license, and Gavin's authority seems to be higher than his.
Sitting next to Gavin, New Year's Eve couldn't hold back a smile.
Captain Zhou's expression suddenly became a little embarrassing, and his old face turned red and white. After a long time, he finally choked out a sentence: "It's because the old man has eyes but doesn't know Mount Tai..."
The atmosphere was suddenly awkward.
"Okay, it's all a misunderstanding." Li Qingzhou finally said condescendingly again, "The business is important. Let's have a meeting first."
As a result, no one talked about the small disputes before the meeting.He listened carefully to Li Qingzhou's speech.
"There have been two meetings before, and this is the last meeting. A final decision must be made." Li Qingzhou supported his chin with his hand, "About whether we should retreat or stay behind."
"Retreat means abandoning the Gele galaxy, leading the fleet to rush out from the weak point of the Zerg guard, and join the army of the empire."
"To stay is to live and die with the Gele galaxy, waiting for the rescue of the empire. Of course, it is very likely that we will not be able to wait..."
"The pros and cons of the two options have been analyzed, and you can think about it again."
As soon as Li Qingzhou finished speaking, a file box popped up on the electronic screen in front of everyone, listing the pros and cons of the two plans.
The first thing Gavin looked at was the evacuation option and the accompanying evacuation route.
The entire universe is indeed uncovered, and it stands to reason that one can also leave the encirclement of the Zerg from other places.However, the danger of the unknown star field is too high. You may encounter cosmic black holes, wormholes, or lose the standard star field map at any time.
If it is difficult to understand, you can regard the entire starry sky as the sea.
If it is said that when the era of great navigation began, the normal route of large cargo ships from England to East Asia was from the Atlantic Ocean through the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa, and then to East Asia; then Li Qingzhou's current choice is to break through the Arctic Ocean from England, and then across the entire Atlantic Ocean , the Pacific Ocean, and finally circled to the destination.
Judging from this document alone, this plan is not impossible, but it is a bit troublesome.
From this transmitted document, we can basically see the above selection tendency.
There is a long list of plans for retreat, but there are not many follow-up steps for staying and resisting, and there is not even a plan for strategic deployment...
Gavin couldn't help frowning.
"My lords," at this moment, a middle-aged man with a ring on his hand stood up. He took off the hat on his head and put it on his chest. After taking off his hat, Zhongzheng said peacefully. Said, "Please listen to me. The evacuation plan is not safe... Just from the deployment of armaments alone, it may arouse the vigilance of the Zerg. Even if they don't find it at the beginning, they will definitely wake up within three days.
It is said that arrogant soldiers are bound to be defeated. A team that has lost the desire to fight may not be able to deal with powerful enemies on the road. "
What he said is not unreasonable, but obviously it cannot convince everyone.
The white-haired Captain Zhou replied: "Our top priority is to ensure the safety of the prince. The fleet dispatched is all the elite troops of the Third Army, and we are not worried about ambushes in a small area."
What's more, to occupy a place, some people must be sent to guard it, just enough to share the troops of the Zerg.
The middle-aged man was speechless for a moment. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but met Li Qingzhou's gaze.
Probe, doubt...and, cold.
The middle-aged man was the original consul of Gele Star, named Feng Cheng.
If the troops stationed here retreat, it will be the ordinary imperial people at the bottom who will bear the brunt of the disaster.
These people don't have weapons, and they can't cultivate Yuanli. Facing the Zerg, they have no choice but to escape.
It is precisely because of knowing this that the residents of Gele Star's entire first district retreated collectively. Many houses were bulldozed and turned into military camps, and few people complained.
Imperial soldiers burn money.
Zerg soldiers eat people.
Money can be earned again, but if life is gone, it is really gone.
But now... the Empire's original warrior army actually said that it would retreat...
And there was nothing he could do about it.
This meeting adopts an anonymous ballot to vote.
There are a total of fourteen people here, and the three local officials of Basil Star will definitely vote against it. However...the two new members are excluded, and the black-faced boy holding Marshal Chen's special permit is also excluded.
There were at least eight of them, all of whom were close to Li Qingzhou.
Feng Cheng sat down a little slumped, and once again felt sorry for his insignificance.Thinking of the billions of civilians in the Gele star field, if they were not still in the serious conference room, tears would almost fall.
The room fell silent again.
Li Qingzhou glanced around and asked, "Does anyone have any questions?"
Gavin's calm voice sounded at this moment, expressing what Feng Cheng had just said: "If the army leaves, what will happen to the people on Gele?"
Li Qingzhou lifted his chin slightly, and kept his back straight.He is the jewel in His Majesty's crown, the jewel in the heart of King Qin. He grew up pampered and pampered, which allowed him to develop an extremely elegant demeanor...and an extremely vicious arrogance.
He spoke with a smile on his face: "It is a great honor to die for the empire."
Does Li Qingzhou know that Gele Star will be breached after they retreat?
of course.
But wouldn't that be nice?There just happened to be another planet blocking the knife for him.
Probably in Li Qingzhou's eyes, or in other words, in the eyes of many aristocratic children, there is no difference between dying for him and dying for the empire.
One percent of aristocratic families control 90.00% of the resources of the entire empire.
Thousands of years have passed, and no one has been able to shake this system.
Anyway, the commoners of the empire will always be like livestock raised in captivity, and the descendants of these famous families are the shepherds for generations.
It doesn't matter if the sheep die, it's just the sheep that die anyway.There will be a slight loss in this quarter, and new lambs will be born in the next quarter.
Gavin used to be a son of an aristocratic family. Li Qingzhou's idea is not unique in the aristocratic circle. Everyone has long been familiar with it. It is just for the sake of maintaining social stability.
An unexplained anger came from the bottom of my heart, and it was very hot.Gavin's hands were itchy because of the burning.
Gavin didn't answer right away, but seriously thought about... the possibility of killing Li Qingzhou.
Even when he led the team in the school practice competition and was frequently provoked by Li Qingzhou, Gavin never thought of doing it.
Because this person is just very loud, the task of the person who is arranged will still be completed, coupled with his noble status, the price of killing him is too high, Gavin has always chosen to ignore it.
However, in this case, if it can be planted on the Zerg, it is not impossible...
Feeling something on New Year's Eve, she gently held his hand under the table.
After Gavin paused, reason gradually regained the upper hand.
Not now...at least, not here.
Gavin met Li Qingzhou's gaze, and asked in an neither humble nor overbearing way: "Aren't we going to the battlefield to protect civilians? Why did we become civilians to protect us when we came to Your Highness? Or, what does His Highness think he went to the battlefield for?"
Do you want His Royal Highness Qin Wang to think of you in the future, and think that you left a civilian in the star field and escaped alone?
Most of you here are young and middle-aged military officers. Do you want to be unable to look up when you see your peers in the future? "
You don't need to see your peers. At this moment, under Gavin's questioning, some people feel a little bit embarrassed.
Li Qingzhou's lips were pursed into a thin line, and the light in his blue eyes moved slightly.
No matter how much he thought in his heart, he couldn't say "my life is naturally more important than the lives of millions of other people" on this occasion.
"I have nothing else to say. I just hope that if the result of the final vote is to evacuate, please allow me to stay with my fleet and live and die with Gele Star."
He sat down slowly.
Li Qingzhou's expression suddenly became very gloomy and ugly.
"Anyone else have anything to say?"
The meeting room fell into a deathly silence. Obviously, this group of people had nothing to say.
So, Li Qingzhou made a decision, and he said in a neutral tone: "Then start voting."
Voting is anonymous, voters will not be registered, and they can choose by themselves on the electronic screen.
After a few minutes, the result came out.
7:7, it turned out to be a tie.
"How...how is this good?"
"It's impossible to find another person. It's not suitable to find anyone now."
There was a whisper in the conference room.
A mechanical sound sounded at this moment.
"Hello everyone, I am Maya, the artificial intelligence of the military department. After comparing and analyzing the data, I have calculated the survival rate of the two plans." Maya's voice sounded without emotion, "Since the vote is tied, please allow I cast a vote based on the calculation and analysis results."
Many people looked hesitant, unable to make up their minds.
In my memory, there are very few tie votes, and there are even fewer cases where artificial intelligence voting is required.
But it seems... not bad?
All eyes focused on Li Qingzhou's face.
Li Qingzhou looked gloomy, and unconsciously raised Erlang's legs, and put his hand on the long whip on his waist. He was silent for a moment, and replied: "Yes."
Maya replied: "Scheme 40.00, the survival rate is [-]% [-].
Option two, the survival rate is 40.00% [-].
The calculation process is too long, and the analysis process has been sent to your personal terminals.
Therefore, I vote for option two. "
The voice fell, and the numbers on the screen jumped.Suddenly changed from 7:7 to 7:8.
This means that the evacuation plan was rejected.
……
The first galaxy, Emperor Star.
The electric light on Yuanyuan's face flickered, and it took a long time before he came back to his senses.
"Oops!" it cried, "It's over! The eggs are fried!"
Honey Cub doesn't like to eat!When it was time to eat, he took advantage of his small stature and hid everywhere in the house. Yuanyuan had to look for it for a long time every time.
Damn, this time the custard is gone.There is even more reason not to eat honey!
So angry.
When Yuanyuan was not a domestic robot, it actually had another name.
It is called "Pangu".
Pangu is the first generation of artificial intelligence eliminated by the military.
It stands to reason that the military has completely destroyed it.It shouldn't continue to exist.
However, considering that Yuanyuan is a housekeeping robot given to Song Shaoyu by Yi Yansheng, and that Yi Yansheng is one of the chief designers of "Maya", this matter is not impossible.
……
The meeting is over and the results are out.No joy could be seen on Li Qingzhou's face, and he chose to end the meeting expressionlessly.leave first.
In fact, he himself... also voted against it.
But when you see that the result is different from what you think, it is inevitable that you will be a little angry.
The black-faced young man who had been silent in the corner of the conference room was the second to leave. He was carrying a big knife, but he couldn't make a sound. He moved even more nimbly like a cheetah, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
There's really nothing to do in the conference room.Gavin and New Year's Eve walked out of the gate, and before they could say a few words, a thin middle-aged man with thinning hair stopped them.
"Lieutenant, please wait—"
Gavin turned his head, and stretched out an extremely withered hand.
If you want to dodge it, it's not difficult at all, but Gavin didn't dodge it.
Because Feng Cheng had tears in his eyes.
He was tightly held by these hands that looked like old farmers.
"On behalf of the people in the Basil Starfield, I thank you. It is my luck to meet an officer like you who cares about the people!" Feng Cheng couldn't help but burst into tears.
Gavin looked at him with a smile on his face, but he felt a little guilty about Feng Cheng's statement in his heart.
He cares about the common people, and he is too flattering.
When Li Qingzhou said that at first, he was indeed a little angry.
But if Li Qingzhou's plan is foolproof, he may not object to it.
The problem is that Li Qingzhou, an academic, really thinks everything too simply, and his retreat plan is simply not feasible in Gavin's eyes.
Li Zhifei should have sent an experienced old man around him to teach Li Qingzhou, but for various reasons, Li Qingzhou did not accept the teaching and threw away the people Li Zhifei sent.
Otherwise, Li Zhifei would never let Li Qingzhou fall into this situation.
Gavin's guess is eight or nine. Li Qingzhou really ran out alone behind the back of the royal guards assigned to him by Li Zhifei.
Gavin had already thought about what to do when he wanted to kill Li Qingzhou.
He would find a way to tell the Zerg about the whereabouts and route of Li Qingzhou and his group before Li Qingzhou's army withdrew.
After discovering that the information was correct, the Zerg army would definitely fight Li Qingzhou, and this was his chance.
He will go to attack the star field channel leading to the outside world from the Gele galaxy.
Even if he didn't succeed - he could still use the source pattern array to escape with Lunar New Year's Eve.
In such a huge star field, it is not easy to find two people.
……
So, Gavin just made a choice that was more in line with his own interests, and he couldn't bear such high praise from Feng Cheng.
However, he still helped the person up with kindness, and replied with a smile: "I just did what I should do, and I didn't vote alone, so don't thank me."
No matter the mind, no one is perfect in the world. *
He accepted Feng Cheng's thanks.
The original members of the 149th Fleet were not one in ten.When we got together, more than 90 people lined up together. It was sad to see that it was not as big as a military training team.
But the momentum is full.
We were all in the dark together before, and the situation was urgent, and Gavin didn't have time to take a closer look.Now standing under the incandescent lamp, everyone is fat and strong, which is very satisfying to watch.
Gavin also noticed that the reconnaissance platoon had two fewer members out of fourteen.
Probably because his gaze stayed too long, Si Kang took the initiative to explain: "Before retreating, when they were about to be overtaken, they took the initiative to apply for cover. Then they never came back."
Si Kang has also been on the battlefield for six or seven years, but obviously he has no way to see through life and death. When he speaks, his voice trembles violently, as if he is about to cry at any time.
Gavin sighed inwardly.
"Understood. The current organization will remain unchanged, and we will reorganize after we reach Gele Star."
In his current state, he needs ships but not ships, and people... There are not many people, and he is only a little better than the bare commander.
Not to mention making great achievements, even contracting the canteen is not enough.
A day later, the transport ship finally landed on Gele Star.
As a living planet with a small number of fourteen galaxies, it has also become the rear of this battlefield. Now the airport of Gele Star is extremely busy.Countless fleets take off and land every day.
The original government building in the first district of Gele Star was forcibly requisitioned and became a command tower for the military headquarters. The nearby civilians were even isolated, leaving a vacuum.
These civilians did not even receive any compensation when they were forced to evacuate, only a flimsy IOU from the military, promising to compensate after the war.
The local officials of Gele star were miserable about this. After all, it was not known how long it had been since the war compensation was settled. The cost of post-war reconstruction must still be paid by the local finance.
The person responsible for meeting them is You Ziyin.
Gavin didn't expect to see him here again, and was pleasantly surprised for a while, but what bothered him afterwards was another matter.
Gavin turned his head and said to You Ziyin thoughtfully, "I thought you would follow Qingyi."
After all, when he was still in school, You Ziyin said more than once that he wanted to be Qingyi's adjutant.
You Ziyin: "I would like to, but my parents don't agree, so that's it."
His tone was sad like a little mandarin duck being beaten by his parents.
When he got to a place where there were fewer people, You Ziyin's expression suddenly sank.
"The supreme commander here is Li Qingzhou...he has the highest authority, so he has become a temporary commander." He said, "Moreover, the only order given to us is to protect Li Qingzhou's safety, and our task does not include guarding the Gele Starfield. "
...was truly astounding.
"Really." After a moment of silence, Gavin asked lightly.
The information he revealed was enough. You Ziyin still had a lot of business to deal with, so he sent Gavin to the camp and left in a hurry.
The other fleets have ships, but because the starship has not yet been approved, Gavin's team only has a wide open space, not even a place to live.
So Gavin had no choice but to organize his soldiers to set up camp first.
The fleet next door didn't go on a mission today, and it was the first time I saw my peers whose ships were gone. They stood in a row on the deck to watch the excitement, and only had to say "wonderful" with popcorn in their arms.
"Hey, where is the ship of this fleet?"
"Captured, or blown up, who knows?"
"It's so miserable, I suddenly feel that our team is doing well..."
Don't say it, it's embarrassing.
Yun Zhong looked at his captain sadly, with a hint of anticipation in his sorrow: "Can you urge the logistics department? When will we get another patrol ship?"
Not to mention, the bearded Yun Zhong spoke like that...it's really shabby.
Gavin replied without changing his face: "A reminder, I will make a reminder today."
Si Kang, who was trying to make fire to bake bread, squeaked at this moment: "Captain! Someone is looking for you!"
Jia Wen thought to himself that someone who is unfamiliar with the place here would come to him, but when he turned around, he saw New Year's Eve.
It was the first time he had seen him put on the officer's uniform of the Third Regiment on New Year's Eve.
The military ranks of the two people are the same, so the military uniforms they wear are not bad. The standard configuration is an officer's uniform with epaulettes and white gloves.
A good-looking person looks good even in a sack.Not to mention that this military uniform is quite energetic.
An obvious smile suddenly appeared on Gavin's face.
He stood up, then walked over, and asked him in a low voice: "Why are you here?"
Gavin took his hand.He slipped his gloved hand through the wrist opening of New Year's Eve's glove, and then clasped New Year's Eve's knuckles.
New Year's Eve's fingers trembled, but he didn't break free.
There are no calluses or scars on New Year's Eve's hands. The fingers are slender but not thin. It should feel good to hold.
Gavin suddenly felt that wearing gloves was a waste of money.
New Year's Eve blinked and replied in a low voice: "I just finished my work and came to see you."
"That's not what I meant." Gavin stared at New Year's Eve's golden eyes and forced him to look at himself. His tone was not serious, but he sounded very persistent, "I want to ask, why did you come Fourteen galaxies."
It stands to reason that at this time of New Year's Eve, he should still be in the rear, working as a secretary for Xun Liangzhou, waiting for promotion, instead of leading the team to the front.
In fact, Gavin already knew the answer.
It's nothing more than worrying about him.
In fact, Gavin has gradually come to accept that New Year's Eve has become better than him, and sometimes he thinks bitterly whether he has raised a golden thigh, but in his heart, he still doesn't want to see New Year's Eve become better than him. risky.
It's like seeing him in trouble even on New Year's Eve.
No matter how powerful New Year's Eve is, Gavin will never forget how the little ball of New Year's Eve lay in his palm and called him "papa" limply and crying.
He wanted to protect him when he had nothing at the beginning, and it is naturally the same now.This has become his instinct.
Hearing Gavin's question, New Year's Eve's eyes suddenly began to wander, he hesitated and couldn't say a word for a long time.
At this moment, the person who clasped his fingers restlessly rubbed the skin on the base of his fingers. The skin from the gap felt strange, crisp and numb, and he almost couldn't hold it back. Withdrew his hand.
Before New Year's Eve had time to think of a reason, the prompt sounded from the personal terminal saved him in time.
He immediately withdrew his hand as if he was saved, and read the news in a panic.
"Send a message to inform me to hold a meeting... saying that they are going to discuss the next strategic arrangement." After thinking for a moment on New Year's Eve, he said, "Would you like to listen to it with me?"
He knew that Song Shaoyu gave Gavin a very high level of authority, so high... Except for the military headquarters, he can enter almost anywhere without hindrance.
Gavin didn't refuse, after all, he really wanted to know what the higher-ups were planning to do.
So the two of them changed the subject at the same time, and began to exchange information.
"The battle outside is actually not very good, more losses than wins, but the overall defense line has not yet collapsed, and I don't know how long the fight will last. General Xun looks at the empty warehouse and his hair is turning gray..."
"The commanders of the five armies, except for Chen Siwei who are still guarding the front line, the other four are all on the battlefield outside the territory. The news of that level is too high, I don't know the specific situation.
What I can know is that the Zerg side has already lost the Holy Order, and I am a little worried about the teacher. "
"Energy stones are getting more and more expensive, and now the supply of energy stones is temporarily stopped in the school...to prevent people from reselling and speculating on prices."
……
The two of them went all the way to the highest floor of the command tower.
After swiping the card, the door opened towards them, and the goal was a wide corridor, at the end of which was today's meeting room.
There were only twelve people sitting in the huge conference room.Gavin glanced around calmly, and found that he only knew Li Qingzhou who was sitting in the front.
In addition, there is a dark-skinned young man who looks familiar... I just can't remember where I met him.
Probably because he didn't expect to see Gavin here, Li Qingzhou's expression was a little surprised.
He was surprised at the speed of the rescue team, but he didn't know that the reason why he came back so quickly had nothing to do with the support he sent.
Waiting for the transfer order from the headquarters, waiting for the general to receive the mission, the logistics department getting ready, and finally sending the fleet to rescue... After this lengthy procedure, it is enough to break through the opponent on New Year's Eve.
Obviously, after ordering to go down, Li Qingzhou didn't pay attention to the progress, and no one even came to report to him.
Gavin didn't think too much, he calmly followed the New Year's Eve and took his seat.
Including New Year's Eve and Gavin here, there are a total of fourteen participants, each of whom has a photon screen in front of them, and can look up information.
So Gavin inserted his military ID card and flipped through the information on the screen.
The first thing to look at is the news sent back by the scout ship ahead.
...Well, the army of the Zerg is mainly in the southwest direction, guarding the star field passages in the Gele star field and other places in the fourteen galaxies.
Because the front line is tight, the Zerg recently secretly transferred some starships back...
But there are still a lot of starships left in the Gele Starfield.
After finding that everyone was present, Li Qingzhou began to speak.
"This is Lieutenant Lin, who was sent by the empire to support." Li Qingzhou smiled and introduced New Year's Eve, who had just entered the arena. "He is the adopted son of Marshal Song."
Everyone here suddenly showed a look of enlightenment, and their expressions were much gentler.
Another old man spoke. The epaulets he wore were the unified army ranks of the empire, and his surname was Zhou.
Captain Zhou said: "Your Highness, what about this one...?" He looked at Gavin.
Li Qingzhou narrowed his eyes slightly, and then said very calmly: "I don't know either, maybe it's Lieutenant Lin's adjutant."
This was obviously talking nonsense with open eyes, and it could be seen that His Highness did not introduce Gavin's plan by the way...or rather, he really wanted to see what Gavin planned to do.
After hearing the reply, the old man showed a look of "as expected".
After all, Gavin looks really too young now.
So, he simply passed Gavin and asked about the New Year's Eve at the side.
"Lieutenant Lin," the captain said with a serious frown, "this meeting is mainly to decide the future strategic plan, in order to avoid unnecessary leaks, do you think we should let the idlers with insufficient authority leave?"
His words are actually not unreasonable, but his tone is a bit aggressive, yin and yang, and it is very shocking to listen to.
New Year's Eve opened his mouth to say something, but was stopped by Gavin raising his hand.
He looked at Captain Zhou with a smile, and asked, "How can I have enough authority?"
Probably because he didn't expect to be attacked again, Captain Zhou's expression is not very good-looking.
The captain snorted coldly, "Look at your age, at most you just graduated from the military academy, and you have never seen you in the central command tower of Gele Star before, so you must have come with Lieutenant Lin?"
"Yes." Gavin replied.
Ashamed to say, he was still rescued... If he hadn't come on New Year's Eve, he would still be eating tree bark with his team members on the asteroid.
"At your age, unless you are a special imperial officer like Lieutenant Lin," the old man surnamed Zhou continued, with a look of admiration on his face, and he made a bow in the air, "or like Lieutenant Chen, There is a special permit from the Marshal. You are eligible to sit with us, get it..."
……?
The words of the old man surnamed Zhou stopped abruptly, and shock and bewilderment flashed alternately on his face.
Because at the same time as he heard his words, Gavin suddenly took out a black card and threw it on the table with a "snap".
He didn't seem to use any force, but the small black card was slammed into the long alloy table abruptly, and the indestructible alloy sank like cheese with hot oil.
"Sorry... I just got promoted, so I didn't pay attention." Gavin said what he said from the bottom of his heart, but judging from the expressions of other people, it seemed that he didn't quite believe it.
He looked at the captain and asked earnestly and sincerely, "Is this the special license you mentioned?"
The people around were a little dumbfounded.
The special license is very difficult to forge, and there is a special magnetic card inside, basically you only need to swipe to know if it is genuine.
Moreover, forging a special license is subject to court-martial.In this case, there should be no head-scratching.
Still feeling lucky, the captain said, "It's still time to check..."
The dark-faced young man who had been silent all this time spoke up: "It's true."
He had a special permit from Chen Siwei, and he could tell at a glance that Gavin hadn't cheated.
He could even vaguely discover based on the code... It is also a special license, and Gavin's authority seems to be higher than his.
Sitting next to Gavin, New Year's Eve couldn't hold back a smile.
Captain Zhou's expression suddenly became a little embarrassing, and his old face turned red and white. After a long time, he finally choked out a sentence: "It's because the old man has eyes but doesn't know Mount Tai..."
The atmosphere was suddenly awkward.
"Okay, it's all a misunderstanding." Li Qingzhou finally said condescendingly again, "The business is important. Let's have a meeting first."
As a result, no one talked about the small disputes before the meeting.He listened carefully to Li Qingzhou's speech.
"There have been two meetings before, and this is the last meeting. A final decision must be made." Li Qingzhou supported his chin with his hand, "About whether we should retreat or stay behind."
"Retreat means abandoning the Gele galaxy, leading the fleet to rush out from the weak point of the Zerg guard, and join the army of the empire."
"To stay is to live and die with the Gele galaxy, waiting for the rescue of the empire. Of course, it is very likely that we will not be able to wait..."
"The pros and cons of the two options have been analyzed, and you can think about it again."
As soon as Li Qingzhou finished speaking, a file box popped up on the electronic screen in front of everyone, listing the pros and cons of the two plans.
The first thing Gavin looked at was the evacuation option and the accompanying evacuation route.
The entire universe is indeed uncovered, and it stands to reason that one can also leave the encirclement of the Zerg from other places.However, the danger of the unknown star field is too high. You may encounter cosmic black holes, wormholes, or lose the standard star field map at any time.
If it is difficult to understand, you can regard the entire starry sky as the sea.
If it is said that when the era of great navigation began, the normal route of large cargo ships from England to East Asia was from the Atlantic Ocean through the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa, and then to East Asia; then Li Qingzhou's current choice is to break through the Arctic Ocean from England, and then across the entire Atlantic Ocean , the Pacific Ocean, and finally circled to the destination.
Judging from this document alone, this plan is not impossible, but it is a bit troublesome.
From this transmitted document, we can basically see the above selection tendency.
There is a long list of plans for retreat, but there are not many follow-up steps for staying and resisting, and there is not even a plan for strategic deployment...
Gavin couldn't help frowning.
"My lords," at this moment, a middle-aged man with a ring on his hand stood up. He took off the hat on his head and put it on his chest. After taking off his hat, Zhongzheng said peacefully. Said, "Please listen to me. The evacuation plan is not safe... Just from the deployment of armaments alone, it may arouse the vigilance of the Zerg. Even if they don't find it at the beginning, they will definitely wake up within three days.
It is said that arrogant soldiers are bound to be defeated. A team that has lost the desire to fight may not be able to deal with powerful enemies on the road. "
What he said is not unreasonable, but obviously it cannot convince everyone.
The white-haired Captain Zhou replied: "Our top priority is to ensure the safety of the prince. The fleet dispatched is all the elite troops of the Third Army, and we are not worried about ambushes in a small area."
What's more, to occupy a place, some people must be sent to guard it, just enough to share the troops of the Zerg.
The middle-aged man was speechless for a moment. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but met Li Qingzhou's gaze.
Probe, doubt...and, cold.
The middle-aged man was the original consul of Gele Star, named Feng Cheng.
If the troops stationed here retreat, it will be the ordinary imperial people at the bottom who will bear the brunt of the disaster.
These people don't have weapons, and they can't cultivate Yuanli. Facing the Zerg, they have no choice but to escape.
It is precisely because of knowing this that the residents of Gele Star's entire first district retreated collectively. Many houses were bulldozed and turned into military camps, and few people complained.
Imperial soldiers burn money.
Zerg soldiers eat people.
Money can be earned again, but if life is gone, it is really gone.
But now... the Empire's original warrior army actually said that it would retreat...
And there was nothing he could do about it.
This meeting adopts an anonymous ballot to vote.
There are a total of fourteen people here, and the three local officials of Basil Star will definitely vote against it. However...the two new members are excluded, and the black-faced boy holding Marshal Chen's special permit is also excluded.
There were at least eight of them, all of whom were close to Li Qingzhou.
Feng Cheng sat down a little slumped, and once again felt sorry for his insignificance.Thinking of the billions of civilians in the Gele star field, if they were not still in the serious conference room, tears would almost fall.
The room fell silent again.
Li Qingzhou glanced around and asked, "Does anyone have any questions?"
Gavin's calm voice sounded at this moment, expressing what Feng Cheng had just said: "If the army leaves, what will happen to the people on Gele?"
Li Qingzhou lifted his chin slightly, and kept his back straight.He is the jewel in His Majesty's crown, the jewel in the heart of King Qin. He grew up pampered and pampered, which allowed him to develop an extremely elegant demeanor...and an extremely vicious arrogance.
He spoke with a smile on his face: "It is a great honor to die for the empire."
Does Li Qingzhou know that Gele Star will be breached after they retreat?
of course.
But wouldn't that be nice?There just happened to be another planet blocking the knife for him.
Probably in Li Qingzhou's eyes, or in other words, in the eyes of many aristocratic children, there is no difference between dying for him and dying for the empire.
One percent of aristocratic families control 90.00% of the resources of the entire empire.
Thousands of years have passed, and no one has been able to shake this system.
Anyway, the commoners of the empire will always be like livestock raised in captivity, and the descendants of these famous families are the shepherds for generations.
It doesn't matter if the sheep die, it's just the sheep that die anyway.There will be a slight loss in this quarter, and new lambs will be born in the next quarter.
Gavin used to be a son of an aristocratic family. Li Qingzhou's idea is not unique in the aristocratic circle. Everyone has long been familiar with it. It is just for the sake of maintaining social stability.
An unexplained anger came from the bottom of my heart, and it was very hot.Gavin's hands were itchy because of the burning.
Gavin didn't answer right away, but seriously thought about... the possibility of killing Li Qingzhou.
Even when he led the team in the school practice competition and was frequently provoked by Li Qingzhou, Gavin never thought of doing it.
Because this person is just very loud, the task of the person who is arranged will still be completed, coupled with his noble status, the price of killing him is too high, Gavin has always chosen to ignore it.
However, in this case, if it can be planted on the Zerg, it is not impossible...
Feeling something on New Year's Eve, she gently held his hand under the table.
After Gavin paused, reason gradually regained the upper hand.
Not now...at least, not here.
Gavin met Li Qingzhou's gaze, and asked in an neither humble nor overbearing way: "Aren't we going to the battlefield to protect civilians? Why did we become civilians to protect us when we came to Your Highness? Or, what does His Highness think he went to the battlefield for?"
Do you want His Royal Highness Qin Wang to think of you in the future, and think that you left a civilian in the star field and escaped alone?
Most of you here are young and middle-aged military officers. Do you want to be unable to look up when you see your peers in the future? "
You don't need to see your peers. At this moment, under Gavin's questioning, some people feel a little bit embarrassed.
Li Qingzhou's lips were pursed into a thin line, and the light in his blue eyes moved slightly.
No matter how much he thought in his heart, he couldn't say "my life is naturally more important than the lives of millions of other people" on this occasion.
"I have nothing else to say. I just hope that if the result of the final vote is to evacuate, please allow me to stay with my fleet and live and die with Gele Star."
He sat down slowly.
Li Qingzhou's expression suddenly became very gloomy and ugly.
"Anyone else have anything to say?"
The meeting room fell into a deathly silence. Obviously, this group of people had nothing to say.
So, Li Qingzhou made a decision, and he said in a neutral tone: "Then start voting."
Voting is anonymous, voters will not be registered, and they can choose by themselves on the electronic screen.
After a few minutes, the result came out.
7:7, it turned out to be a tie.
"How...how is this good?"
"It's impossible to find another person. It's not suitable to find anyone now."
There was a whisper in the conference room.
A mechanical sound sounded at this moment.
"Hello everyone, I am Maya, the artificial intelligence of the military department. After comparing and analyzing the data, I have calculated the survival rate of the two plans." Maya's voice sounded without emotion, "Since the vote is tied, please allow I cast a vote based on the calculation and analysis results."
Many people looked hesitant, unable to make up their minds.
In my memory, there are very few tie votes, and there are even fewer cases where artificial intelligence voting is required.
But it seems... not bad?
All eyes focused on Li Qingzhou's face.
Li Qingzhou looked gloomy, and unconsciously raised Erlang's legs, and put his hand on the long whip on his waist. He was silent for a moment, and replied: "Yes."
Maya replied: "Scheme 40.00, the survival rate is [-]% [-].
Option two, the survival rate is 40.00% [-].
The calculation process is too long, and the analysis process has been sent to your personal terminals.
Therefore, I vote for option two. "
The voice fell, and the numbers on the screen jumped.Suddenly changed from 7:7 to 7:8.
This means that the evacuation plan was rejected.
……
The first galaxy, Emperor Star.
The electric light on Yuanyuan's face flickered, and it took a long time before he came back to his senses.
"Oops!" it cried, "It's over! The eggs are fried!"
Honey Cub doesn't like to eat!When it was time to eat, he took advantage of his small stature and hid everywhere in the house. Yuanyuan had to look for it for a long time every time.
Damn, this time the custard is gone.There is even more reason not to eat honey!
So angry.
When Yuanyuan was not a domestic robot, it actually had another name.
It is called "Pangu".
Pangu is the first generation of artificial intelligence eliminated by the military.
It stands to reason that the military has completely destroyed it.It shouldn't continue to exist.
However, considering that Yuanyuan is a housekeeping robot given to Song Shaoyu by Yi Yansheng, and that Yi Yansheng is one of the chief designers of "Maya", this matter is not impossible.
……
The meeting is over and the results are out.No joy could be seen on Li Qingzhou's face, and he chose to end the meeting expressionlessly.leave first.
In fact, he himself... also voted against it.
But when you see that the result is different from what you think, it is inevitable that you will be a little angry.
The black-faced young man who had been silent in the corner of the conference room was the second to leave. He was carrying a big knife, but he couldn't make a sound. He moved even more nimbly like a cheetah, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
There's really nothing to do in the conference room.Gavin and New Year's Eve walked out of the gate, and before they could say a few words, a thin middle-aged man with thinning hair stopped them.
"Lieutenant, please wait—"
Gavin turned his head, and stretched out an extremely withered hand.
If you want to dodge it, it's not difficult at all, but Gavin didn't dodge it.
Because Feng Cheng had tears in his eyes.
He was tightly held by these hands that looked like old farmers.
"On behalf of the people in the Basil Starfield, I thank you. It is my luck to meet an officer like you who cares about the people!" Feng Cheng couldn't help but burst into tears.
Gavin looked at him with a smile on his face, but he felt a little guilty about Feng Cheng's statement in his heart.
He cares about the common people, and he is too flattering.
When Li Qingzhou said that at first, he was indeed a little angry.
But if Li Qingzhou's plan is foolproof, he may not object to it.
The problem is that Li Qingzhou, an academic, really thinks everything too simply, and his retreat plan is simply not feasible in Gavin's eyes.
Li Zhifei should have sent an experienced old man around him to teach Li Qingzhou, but for various reasons, Li Qingzhou did not accept the teaching and threw away the people Li Zhifei sent.
Otherwise, Li Zhifei would never let Li Qingzhou fall into this situation.
Gavin's guess is eight or nine. Li Qingzhou really ran out alone behind the back of the royal guards assigned to him by Li Zhifei.
Gavin had already thought about what to do when he wanted to kill Li Qingzhou.
He would find a way to tell the Zerg about the whereabouts and route of Li Qingzhou and his group before Li Qingzhou's army withdrew.
After discovering that the information was correct, the Zerg army would definitely fight Li Qingzhou, and this was his chance.
He will go to attack the star field channel leading to the outside world from the Gele galaxy.
Even if he didn't succeed - he could still use the source pattern array to escape with Lunar New Year's Eve.
In such a huge star field, it is not easy to find two people.
……
So, Gavin just made a choice that was more in line with his own interests, and he couldn't bear such high praise from Feng Cheng.
However, he still helped the person up with kindness, and replied with a smile: "I just did what I should do, and I didn't vote alone, so don't thank me."
No matter the mind, no one is perfect in the world. *
He accepted Feng Cheng's thanks.
