Chapter 409: Apology
It must be said that Kabakas is a veritable old fox and an extremely intelligent person. Of course, this is also inseparable from his life encounters, just imagine a person who has a deep hatred, but grew up hiding among enemies, and dreams of destroying Gaia civilization all the time in his heart, but shows himself as a Gaia and a loyal servant to the outside world, such a person's inner world is not at all imaginable by ordinary people.
Su Yichen and his wife guessed correctly, and as expected, a few days after they arrived at Lin Huai's place, a senior official came to the door on behalf of the federal president and the military.
"Mr. Su, Mrs. Su, Mr. President, Marshal Mossen, and Marshal Connie asked me to bring greetings before I came, and these small gifts are also ...... specially prepared for the two of them." This high-ranking official named Paulus was once a member of the Space Fleet, and after retiring as a lieutenant general, he was transferred to a government agency, and as an important figure on both the military and political sides, he was the most suitable representative to come forward. And the Marshal Mussen he mentioned is the current commander-in-chief of the Federal Space Fleet, and Marshal Connie is the supreme commander of the Solar System Defense Committee, which means that the three people represented by Paulus are the three highest-ranking people in the entire Earth Civilization Rights Organization.
The gift is not expensive, just three very ordinary but practical small gifts, and it can be seen that some thought has gone into choosing a gift. As for Paulus, this person did not pose as a high-ranking government official in front of Su Yichen and his wife, on the contrary, he respected them very much as a junior.
"Thank you, Mr. President, and the two marshals, it's a nice gift, and I like it very much." Su Yichen smiled politely, Luo Yan got up to make tea for the guests, and soon a pot of refreshing tea was served, and Paulus quickly stood up and apologized and said thank you.
"This is the new tea brewed by Xiaolin himself, and I, a guest, can be regarded as borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, come! How about a taste. Su Yichen picked up the tea and smiled and made a gesture to the guests. Of course, Paulus knew who the other party's Xiaolin was, smiled and nodded again and again, took a sip of tea, and then praised this tea as really good.
"Hehe, Xiao Lin is not here, so don't praise him like that."
"This is not a boast, I have heard that Lin Lao's tea-making skills are a must. I never had a chance to taste it, but I didn't expect to come here this time to give me a taste of freshness. Paulus could speak, and replied in a serious manner.
After a few polite words and a cup of tea, Paulus saw that Su Yichen and his wife had never asked him about his intentions, and after thinking about it for a while, Paulus decided to get straight to the point.
"Mr. Su and Mrs. Su, I think the two of you already know about Gaia's civilization, right?"
"You're referring to the rebellion of the Gaia civilization and the escape of Kabakas to the solar system, right?"
"That's right! That's it. Paulus nodded. Then he said: "This matter has attracted the attention of the entire Earth Federation, especially the special identity of Kabakas, the federal government and the military have discussed it many times, and now it is ......." Saying this, Paulus paused, and then said, "The federal government and the military feel that this is a good opportunity to directly intervene in the Gaian civilization. ”
"Good chance?" Hearing this, Su Yichen frowned slightly: "I'm sorry, can you explain what a good opportunity is?" Or how do the federal government and military intend to directly intervene in the events of Gaia? ”
Paulus didn't hide it either, he told Su Yichen and his wife. According to the analysis of the situation described by Kabakas, the Gaian civilization has suffered greatly as a result of this rebellion. In addition, the defeat of the Gaia civilization in the second war between the earth civilization and the Gaia civilization also greatly damaged the vitality of this civilization, although the current Gaia civilization is still a second-level cosmic civilization, its overall strength is not even compared to one-third of its heyday.
Looking at the earth civilization, after winning the second war, the earth civilization directly stepped into the ranks of the second-level civilization, and the entire civilization can be said to be thriving. Its civilization is far stronger than it was at the beginning. Coupled with the cooperation with the Blue Star Civilization over the years, the Earth Civilization has long surpassed the Gaia Civilization in terms of military strength and economic strength. In addition, there is one most important one, that is, the homeland spaceship that Su Yichen and they brought back, with the research and cracking over the years, plus the absorption of technology from the Pluto base and the earth base. The earth civilization now has faint signs of breaking through the second-level civilization and stepping into the third-level cosmic civilization, if there are no accidents, at most a hundred years, the earth civilization will stand at the top of the primary cosmic civilization, so as to move towards the ranks of the middle cosmic civilization.
Gaia civilization, the name of this civilization is the eternal pain of all earth civilization human beings, it is the emergence of Gaia civilization that has caused indelible damage to earth civilization, although the earth civilization finally won in the second war, but in fact this victory is still a tragic victory, and the Gaia civilization as an enemy is still there, I don't know how many earthlings hate to destroy this civilization that brings painful memories to the earth civilization directly, but in view of the universal norms of cosmic civilization, At present, the earth civilization can only maintain very little contact with the Gaia civilization, but there is a state of mutual hostility.
Now, the escape of Kabakas has brought a chance to the civilization of Earth, a chance for real revenge. If you can take this opportunity to directly strangle the Gaia civilization, or even destroy this civilization, from the perspective of the earth's civilization, it is hopeful. Although there are many people in the government and military who oppose this proposal, after all, in the face of an old second-level cosmic civilization, once the war breaks out again, even if the earth civilization finally wins, it will have to suffer a lot of losses. In addition, the Gaia civilization is not without alliances and friends, once other cosmic civilizations are involved, then the situation will be more complicated, let alone revenge at that time, if it is not good, it will bring greater losses to the earth civilization.
However, these views were suppressed by other views, and more people felt that Kabakas's defection was the best chance for the earth's civilization to be given by God. Moreover, the current Gaia civilization has just experienced the end of the largest rebellion in the entire civilization, and the entire civilization is now a mess, as long as the earth civilization intervenes in the internal affairs of the Gaia civilization in a surprising way under the banner of Kabakas, its success rate is very high.
"Under his banner?" Luo Yan couldn't help but interject, didn't Kabakas admit that he was not from Gaia?
"Kabakas's true identity is still a secret in the Gaia civilization, according to him, the person who knows his true identity in the Gaia civilization no longer exists, and he is an important figure in the Paradise Flower family, although the Paradise Flower family has suffered a heavy blow in this rebellion, it can even be said that it has been completely destroyed. But in any case, this identity can make us famous. Everyone thinks that this is an excellent opportunity for us to use our status as an ally of Kabakas to directly intervene in the turbulent Gaia civilization, if not to destroy this civilization, at least when the plan is successful, the Gaia civilization will become a vassal of our Earth civilization. ”
Paulus then carefully told Mr. and Mrs. Su what the federal government and military thought about the plan. It includes the entire program implementation. Although Su Yichen and his wife have held military positions and even received high military ranks, they have never been real soldiers, and they don't know much about these. But judging from Paulus's story, the probability of success of the whole plan seems to be very high, and both the government and the military are extremely optimistic about the implementation of this plan.
Paulus's words made Su Yichen a little strange, he originally thought that Paulus came to visit them because he considered the special reasons of himself and Gaia's civilization, and asked them some questions. But who would have thought that what Paulus said was completely unexpected, which made Su Yichen and his wife a little strange.
"You mean the government and the military have already decided on this plan?" Su Yichen thought for a while and asked.
Paulus nodded: "Yes." The plan has been approved, and the specific plan for the whole plan has been preliminary, and if there are no accidents, the plan will be perfected soon....... ”
"I'm sorry Mr. Paulus." Luo Yan interjected, and she asked puzzledly, "Since that's the case, why did you come to us?" You know, my husband and I are just scientists, we are not soldiers, we are not politicians. ”
The smile on Paulus's face froze slightly, and he explained with a wry smile, "Yes, you're right. But you have to know that there is one person who is indispensable for the implementation of the whole plan, without the cooperation of this person. The unfolding of this plan is simply impossible. ”
"This man is Kabakas?" Su Yichen raised his eyebrows and asked, and then he shook his head again: "No, if according to Kabakas, as a member of the Balk civilization, he has a common enmity with the Gaia civilization, and our earth civilization will help him." It was something that was unwanted, and how could he refuse? ”
Paulus smiled bitterly and explained, "You're right, Kabakas didn't refuse, but he had one condition. ”
"Conditions?" Su Yichen couldn't help but glance at his wife Luo Yan, and vaguely guessed something in his heart.
"Yes. Condition! Paulus said: "Kabacas wants to meet with the two, to be precise, he wants to meet with Mr. Su and discuss some matters privately, as long as he meets this condition, he will fully cooperate with our plan against the Gaia civilization." ”
"See us? Privately negotiating? This request was unexpected by Su Yichen and Luo Yan, to be honest, they had never had direct contact with Kabakas, but why did Kabakas make this request? Could it be that this old guy has some secret secrets? Or is it an unknowable calculation to outsiders?
For a while, Su Yichen and Luo Yan couldn't guess the true intention of Kabakas's request, and they were even more hesitant to see this old guy. And Paulus didn't urge, he sat quietly on the side, patiently waiting for Su Yichen and his wife's answer.
As earthlings, as a member of the earth's civilization, they don't have any good feelings for the Gaia civilization, whether it is Su Yichen or Luo Yan, and even hate this cosmic civilization like ordinary people. If it is said that they can see the Gaia civilization disappearing in the ranks of cosmic civilizations, Su Yichen and his wife will not only not sigh with emotion, but on the contrary, they will clap their hands and applaud. But as scientists, as ordinary people, they don't understand the reason why Kabakas insists on seeing him first, because they can't think of this reason at all.
However, in the end, after thinking about it, Su Yichen and his wife still accepted the request and decided to meet Kabakas, this time for their own civilization, and secondly, they were also surprised that Kabakas insisted on seeing their purpose. It can be said that curiosity prevails a little more.
Paulus was very happy with the consent of Su Yichen and his wife, he immediately reported to his superiors, and the next day a small shuttle came directly to meet them, Su Yichen and his wife took the small shuttle, and it only took dozens of minutes to arrive at a secret base, where Kabakas and his people were temporarily placed.
The base is very large, and there are a lot of people in the base, but since the shuttle came down, there was no one on the way. According to Paulus, the residence where Kabakas is placed is in one of the most heavily guarded places in the base, not to mention outsiders, even the base workers cannot enter without special access permissions, so the rest of the people here are basically in charge of robots and brains except for the security personnel.
Arriving at a building, Paulus invited Su Yichen and his wife to wait in a room, and after a while he came back and invited Su Yichen and his wife to go with him, and they passed through a corridor to another place, through several heavily guarded gates, and inside was a very delicately decorated and natural dwelling.
This is a place similar to a garden, the small bridge and flowing water are very beautiful, the small garden is very delicately arranged, there is a pavilion on the left side of the small pond in the middle, an old man is sitting in the pavilion and admiring the fish swimming in the pond, a leisurely look.
Looking from a distance, Su Yichen recognized this old man as Kabakas at a glance, he was not much different from the way he looked back then, except that he looked a little older, everything was as in his memory. Paulus stepped forward first, said a word to Kabakas, and then raised his hand to point to Su Yichen and his wife not far away, Kabakas turned to look at the place where Su Yichen and his wife were standing, and then stood up with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Su, Mrs. Su, thank you for coming, it's an honor to meet you for the first time." Kabakas said politely.
"Hehe, I've seen you for the second time, Mr. Kabakas, and I don't think it's too much of an honor." Although Su Yichen knew that Kabakas was just an accomplice when the earth was invaded, and with his true identity, what he did at that time was understandable. But when he saw this old guy, Su Yichen's mind suddenly flashed the scene of the earth being attacked and fighting everywhere.
Pauluston was stunned on the side, but before he could try to explain, Kabakas laughed first: "Yes, yes, what Mr. Su said is not wrong at all, you should have seen me back then, but it's a pity that I couldn't meet you, including your beautiful lady." As for what happened back then, I apologize to you, including all the earthlings of the entire earth civilization, although I know that this kind of apology does not mean anything, but I can express one of my attitudes.
