Spy Family

(Thanks to the leader for the reward: smoked cheese.)

Just after returning to King Zhai, the commercial spacecraft was drafted by the military and temporarily converted into a battleship.

The passengers left the ship, and engineers and a large number of robots boarded the ship to carry out simple repairs and modifications. The necessary cabins were not moved, and only three cabins were reserved for people. The remaining space was used to store military supplies.

Lu Yezhou could tell what was in those standard boxes at a glance. "Most of them are batteries and robots. It seems that I guessed it right. The military will use electric weapons. Director Cui guessed it right. Those robots are likely to be used for carrying out operations." The military is really prepared for cyber warfare this time."

Cui Zhuning didn't answer a word.

Most of the engineers and maintenance robots left the scene, and military personnel settled in. There were only a small number of them, only about two hundred people, one-third of whom were command and staff personnel, one-third were logistics personnel, and the other third were combat personnel. They are not soldiers who go into battle in person, but professional officers who sit in the cabin and operate robots remotely.

Lu Linbei guessed at least one thing right. This was a space battle that did not require the participation of infantry.

Intelligence belongs to the staff work, but Lu Linbei and others are assigned to the combat department.

Several rest cabins have been transformed into war rooms, and the dining tables are filled with microcomputers and various equipment. They look like they are dedicated to games, but are more complex and advanced.

Lu Yezhou looked extremely excited as soon as he came in, and whispered: "The combat seat is a weapon specially developed by the military. It can control a master robot and multiple slave robots at the same time. It is borrowed from the seat in that game. But it’s much more advanced. Wow, I really want to sit on it and give it a try. This is not a simulation game, but... a battle without a trace of falsehood.”

There are ten sets of seats in the cabin, and two people work in groups to operate one set of equipment. Guests from outside can only watch, cannot use, or even touch.

Lu Yezhou could only watch helplessly.

The commander-in-chief is also the captain, staying in the command module. There is an on-site commander and two staff officers in each war room, staring at a huge holographic display. There is no actual content at the moment, but a miniature of the spacecraft floating there. The model rotates slowly.

A young staff officer came over and introduced himself, "Hello, I am Staff Major Huang Pingchu. I am responsible for connecting with the Military Intelligence Department and the General Intelligence Bureau. If you have any needs, you can tell me."

Lu Linbei, who has the rank of captain, saluted the major. The other three shook hands. Cui Zhuning had a higher position, so he spoke first, "We have received orders from the General Administration to fully cooperate with the military's actions. Major Huang, don't be polite. What do you need us to do? Despite the orders.”

Huang Pingchu has an ordinary appearance, with only a pair of slanted eyebrows showing a bit of military masculinity, but it is somewhat diluted by his smile. After you get the information, just notify me in time."

Cui Zhuning said a few more polite words. He already knew what he was going to do. In fact, it was a very simple job. He had to keep in touch with the General Intelligence Bureau at all times, transmit the battle data from the front line back, and at the same time, send the expert team’s information from the rear. Guidance is passed to the on-site commander.

The work of Mei Wangzhen and Lu Yezhou is similar, but the focus is different. The General Intelligence Bureau focuses on cyber warfare, while the Military Intelligence Department focuses more on battlefield details, such as the location of the Latitude and Latitude, how many robots are sent, what combat methods are used, and so on.

Lu Linbei was considered a member of the General Intelligence Bureau. Cui Zhuning and Mei Wangzhen were responsible for contacting their departments respectively. Lu Linbei and Lu Yezhou helped run errands and specifically contacted Staff Major Huang Pingchu.

No matter how you look at it, this is an ordinary job without any challenge. Although Huang Pingchu is very polite, he is of a lower level. Not to mention the captain, even the on-site commander in the war room has no regard for the four intelligence personnel. Ignore it.

The four of them were sitting in the corner, staring blankly at the microcomputer. No information came from the Military Intelligence Department or the General Intelligence Bureau.

Lu Yezhou looked at the holographic display on the command table and whispered, "Should we at least invite us to go over there and watch it?"

Mei Wangzhen said coldly: "This is someone else's territory, we all have to be more honest."

"We have been on the boat for at least ten days, and less than an hour after they came on board, this place has actually become their territory. This is really... unreasonable, but I know how to treat guests in the future."

Cui Zhuning smiled and said: "Our General Intelligence Bureau is the guest. Your Military Intelligence Office and the military should be one family."

"The family is also divided into close ones and close ones. I know a lot of officers, but unfortunately there is no one here. Alas, the Military Intelligence Office is also too short of manpower, so they let us take on such a small job."

Cui Zhuning snorted and didn't answer. Lu Yezhou chattered for a while and then shut up as he felt it was boring.

"It's boring" was just the beginning. Five hours after the spacecraft entered the port, it set off again and headed to the designated location. It would take at least six hours to fly, which was almost just in time for the battle to begin.

The first hour is the drill stage. After each department is familiar with the situation, it enters the primary combat readiness state and can take turns to rest.

Cui Zhuning didn't like this arrangement, because it meant that he couldn't "keep an eye on" Lu Linbei all the time. After much hesitation, he accepted the arrangement and let Lu Linbei rest first.

Over at the Military Intelligence Office, Mei Wangzhen will rest first.

Looking at the two people leaving, Cui Zhuning always felt uneasy. Lu Yezhou next to him smiled and said: "Director Cui really cares about Captain Lu. A lover who is passionately in love may not have eyes like yours."

Cui Zhuning withdrew his gaze, and disliked Lu Yezhou's overly intimate behavior more and more, and said coldly: "It's not about caring, I brought Captain Lu to Jiazi Planet, and I will be responsible for him as long as he has not returned to King Zhai. "

"Tsk, tsk, Lao Bei is so lucky to have a boss like Director Cui."

"I am not Captain Lu's boss either. He is a soldier and is temporarily seconded to the General Administration. He has no superior-subordinate relationship with me."

"Not everyone can think so clearly. Look here -" Lu Yezhou glanced at the command table in the distance. There was only an unfamiliar staff officer on duty. "We were also seconded here, so they didn't take us." Taking it too seriously.”

"Yeah." Cui Zhuning didn't want to talk anymore. He moved the microcomputer slightly, avoided Lu Yezhou's eyes, and contacted the General Administration via text.

Cui Zhuning thought too much, and Mei Wangzhen did not use this opportunity to plot a conspiracy. He and Lu Linbei just chatted for a few words, and then went to rest.

Two hours later, Lu Linbei and Mei Wangzhen came over to change shifts.

Cui Zhuning has already said hello to the General Administration, all previous communication messages have been deleted, and the General Administration will not send sensitive content in the future.

Cui Zhuning was indeed a little tired and left first, not wanting to be with Lu Yezhou.

Lu Yezhou smiled and said: "Director Cui has started to avoid me. I don't know when I have offended him."

Mei Wangzhen said: "He is hiding from your mouth, not from you. Go and have a rest. In a few hours, there will be no chance to sleep."

"I have a chance to sleep forever." Lu Yezhou felt that he had told a very interesting joke and left with a laugh.

Mei Wangzhen shook his head, "Ye Zi is good everywhere, but this mouth is so broken that it makes people upset. How did you survive it when you lived in the same house?"

"Whenever he nags me, I go to sleep. After I get used to it, I sleep soundly."

Mei Wangzhen smiled and said: "You two are a perfect match." She checked the information sent by the Military Intelligence Office for a while, "There are still three hours and thirty-seven minutes. The Longitude and Latitude is about to end its interstellar voyage and enter our galaxy. Two battleships and five spaceships have formed an encirclement. As soon as the Longitude and Latitude appeared, they immediately launched an attack. Our ship belongs to the third echelon and may not have a chance to participate in the battle."

"The Longitude and Latitude always surprises people, so the military has become cautious."

"Yes, for this battle, the military has requisitioned thirty merchant ships, and the power reserve is enough to destroy the Meridian and Latitude ten times."

Staff Major Huang Pingchu walked over from the command table and signaled to Lu Linbei that he did not need to salute, "Everything is normal here. We will enter the second level combat readiness state in two hours, and all combatants will be in place. After three hours, flying robots will be dispatched to conduct combat patrols. "

Mei Wangzhen smiled and said: "There is no new news from the Military Intelligence Department yet."

Lu Linbei looked at the empty contact interface and said, "Not even the General Intelligence Bureau."

"Well, let's keep in communication at all times." Huang Pingchu turned and walked away.

"He is the nephew of the chairman of the Huang family," Mei Wangzhen whispered.

"Oh." Lu Linbei didn't know what to say.

"He only joined the army last year and is now a major. His future is limitless."

Lu Linbei nodded. He neither knew nor was interested in upper-level family politics.

"The military actually wants to keep you here, and the three of us are just the ringleaders."

"Am I that important?" Lu Linbei was a little surprised.

"Anyway, that's what I heard. It is said that Huang Pingchu was temporarily transferred to this ship, probably specifically to dock with you."

"It doesn't look like it."

"That's what we should be most vigilant about."

"Even if the chairman wants to take revenge on me, he won't be so anxious, right?"

"I don't know about this. Maybe the chairman wants to thank you."

"Hey." Lu Linbei knew that Mei Wang was joking.

"But you really have to be on your guard."

"Yeah, I will."

"If you need help..."

"No need." Lu Linbei said firmly.

"Why, are you afraid that I will ask you for too high a reward?"

"Some things are difficult to end once they start. Instead of getting involved in bigger troubles, I would rather accept my fate."

"Accept your fate?" Mei Wangzhen turned to look at Lu Linbei, a little unbelieving that this was what he said, "Whatever you want. By the way, there is something I should tell you."

"Um."

"The person who leaked the information about you entering the chairman's office was Dr. Zeng."

"Dr. Zeng?"

"Strictly speaking, it cannot be considered a leak. Dr. Zeng is just doing his duty. His understanding and control of you is deeper than we expected. He is in control of all your actions on the Internet."

"but……"

"Well, I've manipulated your brain. I was confident that I could hide it from Dr. Zeng, but now I'm not so sure."

"Look, I don't seem to have any other choice but to accept my fate."

"Don't worry, maybe it's just that the time hasn't come yet."

Lu Linbei smiled and nodded, unable to think of another opportunity.

Cui Zhuning and Lu Yezhou returned from rest, and military personnel began to arrive, sending a large number of robots outside the ship.

The information from the Military Intelligence Department and the General Intelligence Bureau began to increase, but there was still no important content. Lu Linbei and Lu Yezhou were still busy because of this. They had to meet Huang Pingchu every few minutes to deliver those trivial matters.

An important piece of information finally broke the dullness. The two departments sent intelligence almost at the same time. Mei Wangzhen and Cui Zhuning's expressions changed suddenly at almost the same time, and they said in unison: "The Jingwei is missing!"
