After the knighthood ceremony was completed, the three envoys said goodbye at the right time and left with Ouyang Zhiyu, accompanied by a large number of heavily armed guards.

From this moment on, they were under the close supervision of the military and special services, and were not allowed to meet with outsiders without permission, and were not allowed to communicate with the outside world at will, until the end of the secrecy period.

"Alright, now let's talk about your job adjustment."

Admiral Wu Xingyang sat down in his place, raised his hand and motioned for Qin Feng to sit down as well: "According to the relevant regulations, your military rank has been promoted from major general to lieutenant general, and the vacancy of the deputy commander of the Silver Shark Legion has also been filled by you, and Ling Shuai has already issued an official order on this matter, so from now on, you will be the deputy commander of the legion, and continue to serve as the division commander of the First Special Assault Division." ”

According to the interstellar calendar, more than half a month ago was the New Year of the empire, and he had enough military exploits, so Qin Feng promoted his military rank from brigadier general to major general, and now after cultivating to set foot in the realm of the Polar Star God General, according to the practice in the army, he can get another opportunity to unconditionally improve his rank, so he is now a lieutenant general, and his authority status has been further improved.

Counting up, from Qin Feng to the present from leaving the United Prison and officially entering the Empire-Legion service, it has actually been less than a full year, and he has changed from the rank of captain to the lieutenant general of the Empire, and his position has also changed from an ordinary mecha warrior to the number two person in the Ace Legion, and the promotion speed is unbelievably fast. Perhaps looking back at the history of the empire over the past thousand years, it is difficult to find similar precedents.

Of course, on the one hand, it was because Qin Feng had enough combat exploits, and on the other hand, his strength was improved fast enough, and the two sides added up to create such an exaggerated effect. Otherwise, according to normal circumstances, he would be able to mix up as a lieutenant colonel now, which would be considered a very hard performance.

Qin Feng thought for a while and asked, "I'm afraid the distance from lieutenant general to general won't be too easy to cross, right?" ”

Admiral Wu Xingyang glared at him, and said in an unkind tone: "You kid should be content, after a year's time, others may not be able to achieve the achievements that they may not be able to achieve in half their lives, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?" ”

"That's right, I was abrupt."

Qin Feng didn't say anything anymore, not mentioning anyone else, it was His Excellency the commander in front of him, who also started as a lieutenant when he joined the army, experienced countless battles, suffered dozens of large and small injuries, was born and died, and survived for nearly sixty years before he mixed into his current position.

One will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, especially in the interstellar era where wars are frequent, the fate of soldiers is like this, Wu Xingyang is lucky, more people have stayed on the battlefield forever, and even the bones may not be recovered.

"So, can I still go on a solo mission in the future?" Qin Feng asked again.

"Absolutely,"

Wu Xingyang replied: "And the degree of freedom in choosing tasks is higher, but I don't recommend you to do this, how can you give the people below some opportunities, can't all the credit be left alone?" ”

Qin Feng said: "I agree with what I said to you in principle, but I am younger after all, and many generals are older than me for more than two rounds, if I don't have enough combat exploits, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public." ”

Although there is no problem with his promotion from the point of view of the procedure, it still seems a bit shocking from the point of view of the results, and it is inevitable to attract criticism. Under such circumstances, the only way to silence the voices of opposition and questioning from all sides is to prove oneself with a large number of military exploits.

Wu Xingyang groaned: "Well, your idea is not unreasonable, so be it." ”

……

Headquarters of the Expeditionary Force.

Marshal Terrence stared at the secret report that had just been sent in front of him, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he didn't say anything for a long time.

The content of the report is very simple, that is, about the attack on the major logistics bases, the intelligence department has used almost all the hidden lines, and has pursued it at all costs, and there is still no eyebrow.

What's even more troubling is that even though the expeditionary force has greatly increased its alert level and sent many fleets to patrol important interstellar waterways, such attacks have never stopped, and every day news of the destruction of a base or a transport fleet comes in.

Due to the loss of so many supplies, even the daily use of the expeditionary force has been affected, and the transportation system in the rear tends to stagnate, and until this problem is solved, the large logistics and material transport fleet does not dare to set off again.

The Sky Eye Wise Team at the Expeditionary Force Headquarters suffered heavy losses due to the forcible deference of the attacker's true identity, and now it basically has no ability to fight again, and if the intelligence system still does not have a bright performance, things will be difficult to do.

"There's no answer to this question, is there?"

Marshal Terrence's gaze swept over the lieutenant general opposite, and his tone was cold: "Whether the lifeline of logistics and transportation is smooth or not is related to the outcome of the entire war, if you still can't give a satisfactory answer, the good situation won by hundreds of millions of soldiers in bloody battles is likely to be ruined!" ”

The lieutenant general of the intelligence system said helplessly: "Your Excellency Marshal, we have indeed tried our best, and we have tried all the methods we can use, but there has been no progress, and we can conclude that this is not something that the Incathir Empire is capable of doing at all, and the attack should be carried out by someone else, most likely other powers secretly intervened......

Marshal Terrence waved his hand impatiently: "I'm not interested in listening to your analysis and speculation, as the supreme commander of the expeditionary force, I only want the result, not the process!" Your intelligence system will give you a letter, how long will it take to solve such a problem? Get our logistical lines of traffic back to normal? ”

The lieutenant general gritted his teeth and said, "In a month, we promise to get those damn guys out!" ”

"A month?"

Marshal Terrence stared at him coldly: "The scheduled time for the next large-scale offensive has been pushed again and again, how can there be so much time for you?" Half a month at most, if you mess up, you're ready to submit your resignation! ”

"Yes, Your Excellency."

The lieutenant general said helplessly, saluted, and turned to leave the office area.

The surrounding generals looked at each other, and their intuition told them that it was impossible to achieve anything in half a month, so it would be difficult to gather the materials needed for the next battle in time.

So, how long can this war be fought?

……

Early the next morning, the imperial envoy's ship set off under the escort of tens of thousands of warships and a large number of mechas.

Before leaving, the head of the Internal Affairs Office, Anyali, had a separate conversation with Qin Feng again, hinting that he had changed his mind, the underage princesses of the royal family were very good, as long as he was willing to wait a little longer, he could settle down now, and the marriage would be completed in a few years.

Qin Feng still politely refused, the national fortunes of the Ingeti Empire were getting worse, and the change of dynasty was not far away, and rashly mixing in it would also hinder his own luck, so he would not do such a thankless thing.

“…… Your Excellency, if you insist on not changing your mind, perhaps His Majesty the Emperor will consider giving you a direct marriage, and then you will not be able to do so. Anyali said with a needle hidden in his head.

Qin Feng said calmly: "According to the laws of the empire, even His Majesty the Emperor has no right to interfere with the abolition of the formal marriage contract between nobles, and the marriage contract between me and the Ling family has been officially agreed, it seems that it is too late for His Majesty to do anything now." ”

The law is like this, but in fact it is very problematic to implement, and the small and medium-sized nobles naturally have no way to deal with the pressure of His Majesty the Emperor, but as the thirteen top gate valves of the empire, they still have the confidence to refuse the interference of the royal family in this regard.

Since Qin Feng had already established a relationship with Ling Yihua, unless it was a serious crime such as treason, rebellion and rebellion, there was no reason for the emperor to forcibly intervene.

Managing Anyali's face changed several times, and finally he just sighed: "Your Excellency, isn't the royal family the biggest backer of the empire?" Why should you compromise on easy things? ”

"It's very simple, as a man, I don't want to live with just one woman!" Qin Feng took it for granted.

The laws of the empire do not prohibit men from marrying more, and the form of marriage depends on the status of both parties, but as a princess, it is obviously impossible to allow her concubine to provoke other women.

However, the women who choose the family of the gate valve are different, if the husband is good enough, there will be a large group of women from the side branch clan and maids who will marry. Therefore, even in the past history, the outstanding sons of the thirteenth-level top gate lords often refused to choose royal women, because they didn't want to marry a living ancestor and come back to suffer.

Manager Anyali couldn't help but widen his eyes, staring at Qin Feng up and down for a while before he shook his head helplessly: "That's it, you guy is really ......"

"It's just that everything about you, I will truthfully report it to His Majesty the Emperor when I go back, so you have to be mentally prepared for what will happen later."

With that, she got up and took her leave.

Qin Feng frowned slightly, and secretly communicated with the starship: "This woman is in some trouble, do you want to cross her?" ”

"It's not proper, after all, this is the person next to the emperor, and there must be a strong person who can often come into contact with the realm of the Extreme Star Martial God and above, if they see the clues, it will be a big trouble." Ship Spirit Yu Yu replied.

"Forget it."

Qin Feng sighed secretly in his heart, fortunately, with Ling Shuai and Ouyang Zhiyu watching, plus his own secret protection, Ling Yihua's safety was still guaranteed.

When the envoy's ship disappeared into the wormhole, Qin Feng immediately went to the cultivation room, called Ling Yihua over again, and asked, "Have you finished taking all the pills you gave you last time?" ”

"Well, yes,"

Ling Yihua, who was beautiful and radiant, nodded vigorously, leaned on him and asked, "This thing works really well, where did you get it?" Haven't you heard of such a special resource in the Polestar Temple? ”

The pill that Qin Feng took out was naturally not a big deal, coupled with the effect of genetic optimization surgery, so she is now also a four-star peak pole star general, her physique has been greatly strengthened, and due to the significant enhancement of the stability of the genetic structure, there is still room for continuous rapid improvement in the future.

The improvement of strength has won Ling Yihua more family support, so compared with before, the guard force around her has increased a lot, and the equipment on her body has also been changed, comparing Liu Shuqin and Yu Ruohuan to the noble girls.

"This is the Nine Transformations Spirit Creation Pill, from ...... Coming from a very mysterious place, the benefits of continuous taking will not be clear for a while, and you will slowly know it in the future. ”

Qin Feng said ominously, this kind of holy elixir in the Void Starry Sky can reshape the root bone physique and strengthen the divine soul, even an idiot like a pig can become a cultivation genius, not to mention Ling Yihua's qualifications are not bad.

He thought about it, then took out two more holy elixirs, as well as a thick silver antique scroll and handed it to her: "Hide it yourself and use it, don't let outsiders know, you can take this elixir now." ”

The silver scroll is full of powerful magic spells that he carefully made, and there are all types of attack and defense recovery, and you can activate and use it when you tear off a page, and the attack and defense are invincible to the enemy, even if you encounter the sniper of the Polestar Martial God, you can guarantee that you can get out of the whole body.

Ling Yihua meekly agreed, and after taking the pill, he digested and absorbed it under Qin Feng's support.

Just then, the sky outside darkened dramatically, a suffocating coercion enveloped everything, and the sound of piercing sirens resounded over the entire base.

"Has there been another invasion? And it looks powerful? ”

"Yes, Your Excellency."

The lieutenant general said helplessly, saluted, and turned to leave the office area.

The surrounding generals looked at each other, and their intuition told them that it was impossible to achieve anything in half a month, so it would be difficult to gather the materials needed for the next battle in time.

So, how long can this war be fought?
