Section 70 Transactions
This is not the first time Lu Wu has been here. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The last time, he attended a training course here - well, for him, he also learned something about the military. But the bigger effect of this training course is to suddenly make Aqi's prestige swept away.
Yes, as Ombudsman, she had the power to terrify everyone - because she could theoretically arrest any officer at will, or appoint any temporary officer, for a false reason. Moreover, these arrested people are not able to make any effective resistance in this situation. However, after this training, the remnants of the local army instantly reduced their awe of Aqi to a limit. So much so that Ah Qi couldn't organize a team in the future, so he finally went out by himself and hired two warlocks to help, so that he could make the trip.
Of course, that's all in the past. According to the earth, this is the so-called blessing of misfortune. It is precisely because she had to go out in person that Aqi made outstanding achievements. On the contrary, if you easily organize a team from the remnants of the army, it is estimated that what Aqi can get is the news of failure again and again.
So far, no one seems to be able to repeat Aki's success.
"It's here. The voice of the messenger pulled Lu Wu back to reality from his chaotic thoughts. Did you slowly integrate into the world? Or did you learn a lot of new things because you have experienced too much? Looking back now, it seems that what happened in the past is ...... Well, if you look at the problem with a different eye, you will come to different conclusions.
Now, Lu Wu came to the door of a room next to the original classroom. The messenger made a gesture of "please come in", and Lu Wu walked in, while the messenger didn't follow up, just put it outside
This room is not large, and there is a small window higher in the corner of the room that provides the most basic light here. But even with this window, the room still looks dim, giving people a strange sense of oppression. There was no furniture in the room, the only thing was the machine on one side of the room, which I couldn't understand - how to put it, almost a mixture of punk and sci-fi.
What does this mean? What is here? Lu Wu quickly focused his attention on the machine. I can't see any buttons or handles on it. Could it be that this is the contact screen type?
A flash of light startled Lu Wuyi, and directly above the machine, a projection of a man appeared.
It was a middle-aged man of forty-five, sitting at a table. Because of sitting, I can't see my figure clearly, but I feel that my shoulders are quite broad. Men wear regular army uniforms, and they belong to the type that only soldiers of high status are qualified to wear at a glance.
"What, I thought I was here...... It turned out to be just a remote communication. "Lu Wu has seen something similar, and in fact, his terminal also has a similar function. However, perhaps due to the limited bandwidth, communication in this world is still dominated by sound and text, and video communication is relatively rare.
"Ah, it's rude not to really face to face, and I apologize. But I can't help it, and now I don't have time to get to the city of Gashe. "The tone of the other party's speech is very polite.,There's no condescending attitude at all.,It's the type that naturally gives people a good impression.。 "You should be Lu Wu......, right? Should he be the temporary commander of the 16th Legion?"
"It's me, may I ask you ......?"
"Ah, it doesn't really matter who I am. I'm a little sorry, but it doesn't matter if you know my name or not. The content of the other party's speech is obviously quite rude, but combined with his expression and body movements, it is very strange that it does not give people special disgust. "Anyway, I'm sorry to ask you to come here...... But I do have a hurry. ”
"If it's urgent, just contact me directly, right? ”
"Contact you? ha...... Sure enough, you are a halfway monk and don't understand the mystery of this terminal. The other chuckled. "The terminal is only directly connected within a relatively short distance, and if the two sides are a little farther away, a transfer tower is needed to carry out the transfer. This means that no matter what you send to your friends, there will be a backup on the side of the turret, you know? That is, using a regular officer terminal to communicate with each other, although it seems to be private, is actually all exposed to high-level surveillance, and there is no secret at all. And even more than that...... Later on, it can be copied as evidence or whatever. Only this," he made a gesture to the machine in front of Lu Wu. "This kind of ultra-remote contact device is the only way to really have a conversation without anyone else being watching. Unless we happen to have a spy sent by the higher-ups, this conversation is only known to you. ”
So that's what happened...... Lu Wu understood.
"So, what do you want to tell me?"
"To put it simply, I want you to save Aki. The other party said.
"Aqi, but she ......" the other party made a gesture to stop Lu Wu from continuing. "You don't necessarily know the situation, so I'll get straight to the point. Aki has already lost, and Kecha Goat's power is stronger than expected. She is now surrounded, and there is only a dead end if there is no rescue. And on the edge of the city of Gashe, you are the only one left in the army. ”
"I only have half a legion. Lu Wu said. "This little force is going to deal with Kecha Goat, isn't it a mantis arm blocking the car?"
"But there's no one else but you. As you know, the city of Gasha is now empty. Aqi took all the troops with him, and now it's just you. And I don't ask for much, I just ask you to get Aqi back...... As for the rest, I can only say how much can be done. ”
"Hey, don't make such a difficult request with such a relaxed expression!" Lu Wu finally came back to his senses. Although the other party spoke softly, politely and gently, the request was not ordinary. What does it mean to "I don't ask for much"? What does it mean to "do as much as I can"? If it weren't for Lu Wu's plug-in, wouldn't this request make it clear that he would risk his life? It would not be an exaggeration to even call it "sending him to death."
More than a dozen of Aqi's legions have been defeated and surrounded, what can Lu Wu do with the half of the legions?
"Well, I remember that you and Aqi had an agreement, and it should have been an offensive and defensive alliance agreement, right? Isn't it a natural obligation to help friendly troops get out of danger?"
"Aqi just asked me to attack the mines and attract the Destroyers in the vicinity. And I've done it, so I don't owe her anything as far as the agreement goes!"
"But your soldiers have nothing to lose. You can do this task alone. Although it is remarkable, the way of choice can be described as bold...... It's simply out of military common sense. ”
"I'm really sorry, I'm a half-tone. ”
"So...... Well, I offer a condition. If you get Aqi out, the city of Gasha will be yours. ”
"What?!"
"As you know, the city, as a key point on the front line, has hoarded a very large number of material troops. Although the army is gone, a large part of the supplies are left. Of course, sooner or later the army will take over after the war, but until the next regular army arrives, everything inside is at your disposal...... If you have enough supplies, your clan will be able to fully recover in a short time. This should be good, right?"
If it was before, maybe this price could make Lu Wu tempted. But now the situation is different. Because the whole mine is already in his hands. If ore production can be fully restored, it means that he will not be short of money at all.
Ivan and Redcoat were still worried that Kecha Goat would counterattack and retake the mining area (most of them were suspicious of this, fearing that Aqi would provoke Kaicha Goat), but Lu Wu himself was not worried at all. Even if there is, it's pretended. Since Kecha Goyat is trying to make him have to stay in this world, he must be given enough benefits, at least he must secretly support him, protect him, and prevent him from accidentally hanging up.
"This condition is not enough. Lu Wu shook his head. "If you want to save Aki, it's too difficult and too risky. ”
"I can make your Legion Captain no longer 'deputy'. The other party continued.
"Ha, although you are the senior commander of the regular army, you are not the governor of the Banshee Gate......" Lu Wu has been in the hotel for a long time, and he naturally knows some of the relationships in this world. Regardless of the fact that both the local army and the regular army can belong to the same camp, but in terms of specific command, personnel, and logistics, the two are actually two parallels and completely unrelated. In fact, the regular army only had the right to supervise - essentially, to ensure that the governor would not rebel and defect to the Stygian camp.
So no matter what kind of identity this person is, how big his military position is, his power is not good for Lu Wu. That's why he can only negotiate terms with Lu Wu, but he can't give orders to him directly. Lu Wu can completely be false and wrong, or yang and yin.
"Yes, I am not a governor, but even if I am a governor, I must obey the consuls. The orders of the consuls were also valid for the local army. So you don't need the governor's approval, just an order from the consul to get rid of the word "acting". ”
"Wouldn't it be better for me to be promoted to Governor?"
"It's beyond my reach. A little trick in some small corner that no one cares about, it won't lead to any consequences. But if it is a major matter of the appointment and dismissal of the governor...... It is impossible to hide it from the consuls. ”
"Well, that's a good condition, but ...... It's not enough. Lu Wu asked.
"You're really a greedy guy, then I'll give you one last condition. On the south side of the Banshee's Gate, far from the city of Gasher, but close to XXX," he said, a proper noun. "There's a floating fortress that crashed by Kecha Goat. Of all the floating fortresses that crashed, this one was in the best condition - it crashed, but its core structure was not disintegrated by the fall, and its main cannon and energy system were intact...... This means that it can be repaired. ”
"You know, under normal circumstances, it's impossible for you to get the Floating Fortress. But if you can make it safe and sound, I promise that this floating fortress will be yours. You don't have to worry about the technical aspects, I will send a professional to repair it, of course, you need to bear the relevant repair costs. ”
"Agree to this request!" suddenly sounded in the headphones, the voice of the master, although very soft, but very clear. By the way, I asked him on what basis he made a guarantee. ”
"Why should I trust you?" Lu Wu asked. "I don't even know you, how do I know if what you're saying is true or not?"
