Liu Yi said: "If Tang Lun really takes the position of the Armaments Committee of this alliance, he will naturally give the green light to the Star Alliance, and other Yaqiu enterprises will not have this kind of treatment." ”

After listening to Liu Yi's analysis, Ye Na also frowned and said, "Then what should we do now?" ”

Liu Yi thought for a while, and said slowly: "It seems that we have to change our thinking, I planned to join this alliance before, but now it seems that I may have to reconsider." ”

"Are we going to join the Alliance?" Ye Na asked, "I don't have any opinion, it depends on what other people think." ”

"It's a bit hasty to draw conclusions now, I think we might as well investigate it first and see if Tang Lun really wants to hold the position of this armaments committee."

"I understand, I'll find someone to investigate right away." Ye Na said.

After Ye Na left, Liu Yi couldn't stay idle, so he activated the clone system and used the powerful search ability of artificial intelligence to start investigating all kinds of information about the security alliance.

There is really a lot of discussion about this matter on the Internet, and many people think that Li Xingqi made this security alliance with the intention of gradually replacing the empire's management system, and sooner or later Li Xingqi will become the king independently and establish his own dynasty.

There are some people who support and oppose Li Xingqi's approach, and these are all predictable reactions.

However, Liu Yi was intrigued by the views of some people, who believed that Li Xingqi's efforts would not last long, and that he would soon encounter great difficulties, either political or economic, and that in short, Li Xingqi's intentions might not be realized.

In fact, Liu Yi also thought so in his heart, Li Xingqi's pace of conquest was too fast, and he couldn't wait to pocket all the other colonies at once. The consequence of this is that Li Xingqi's foundation is very weak, and once he is militarily defeated, I am afraid that the entire group will collapse.

This battle with Zhang Jin should have caused Li Xingqi to wake up, but the victory of the war made Li Xingqi not see the problem clearly at all, but intensified the pace of conquest.

Liu Yi shook his head, now that it is no longer his turn to take care of these things, it is better to find a way to protect Yaqiu first.

After retrieving and analyzing a large amount of information, Liu Yi still found something useful, and he found from some announcements of Li Xingqi Group that Starlink has indeed made a lot of moves recently, such as developing new weapons for Li Xingqi and so on.

Through these clues, Liu Yi saw some clues, Tang Lun may indeed have secretly taken refuge in Li Xingqi, so it may be true that Li Xingqi asked him to serve as a member of the Armaments Commission.

A few days later, Ye Na also reported the results of the investigation to Liu Yi, and through some connections in the army, Ye Na heard that there were indeed such rumors, and it was not a fiction that the Security Alliance would adopt a uniform price for weapons in the future.

Hearing this, Liu Yi had to rethink his refusal to join the security alliance, and although Liu Yi believed that Li Xingqi would not regard himself as an enemy, it was entirely possible to isolate Yaqiu economically.

After some contemplation, Liu Yi had to accept the fact that Yaqiu's economy was not enough to function on its own, and that it was necessary to strengthen ties with other colonies anyway, rather than be isolated.

Although Liu Yi was unwilling, he could only change his original mind and choose to continue to cooperate with Li Xingqi and accept the conditions proposed by Li Xingqi.

This is a very helpless decision, and to some extent, it is indeed humiliating, but for the sake of Yaqiu's future, Liu Yi can only bury this humiliation in his heart.

Two days later, at the regular meeting of the Political Affairs Committee, Liu Yi officially announced his decision to everyone.

"Guys, today I have an important decision to announce." Liu Yi said at the meeting.

When everyone at the meeting heard this, they all cheered up, because Liu Yi rarely used the word "important decision", and since he said so, it must be really important.

Liu Yi continued: "I have already made a decision about whether or not to participate in the Colonial Security Alliance, which was discussed many times some time ago. ”

Hearing this, everyone in the conference room pricked up their ears and waited intently for Liu Yi to announce his final decision.

Today's meeting happens to be Tang Lun's arrival, he hasn't attended a regular meeting for a while, and it's rare that he happened to come to the meeting today. Among the crowd, his expression was different, everyone else looked very nervous, but he seemed to be confident, as if he had already known the answer.

Tang Lun thought that he still knew Liu Yi well, and he guessed that Liu Yi would most likely not accept Li Xingqi's conditions, after all, it was more humiliating for Liu Yi, once he joined this alliance, Yaqiu would be one of Li Xingqi's vassal colonies in the future.

Therefore, Tang Lun dared to make contact with Li Xingqi in private, and secretly accepted the position of the Armaments Commission.

Tang Lun only waited for Liu Yi to officially announce his refusal to join the alliance, and he would announce that he had assumed the position of the Armaments Commission, and at that time, these military enterprises in Yaqiu would come to him one after another, and he would virtually have the power above Yaqiu.

As soon as he thought of this, Tang Lun couldn't wait, and he wished that Liu Yi would quickly announce the result.

Liu Yi looked at everyone's expressions, and suddenly found that Tang Lun was also there, and a mysterious smile appeared on his face.

"Looks like you can't wait...... It's a pity that I can't let you get your wish, Aqiu will still be mine in the future, and my power will continue to be above you. Liu Yi smiled in his heart.

So, Liu Yi continued: "My decision is like this, considering the current environment, as well as the political situation of the empire, although this will be criticized a little, I still think that joining the colonial security alliance is the best choice at the moment. ”

After speaking, Liu Yi looked at everyone's reactions, some had a smile on their faces, some had a disappointed face, and Tang Lun's face was full of surprise and disbelief.

Liu Yi smiled secretly: "Aren't you surprised? I'm so sorry, I won't give you this chance......"

"My decision has been decided, and you can put forward any comments now." Liu Yi asked slowly.

Although his tone was very calm, Liu Yi's eyes told everyone that this decision could not be changed, and even if he raised objections, he would not change anything.

Everyone didn't speak, and Ye Na was the first to take the lead and said: "I support the decision of the adults, now Yaqiu cannot be isolated, we still need to strengthen cooperation with the outside world to continue to make Yaqiu's economic development continue." ”

With Ye Na taking the lead, those who supported joining the alliance immediately expressed their opinions, praising it as a wise decision that was crucial to Yaqiu's development.

Those who held opposing opinions saw that the matter was already settled, and it was useless to say anything, Liu Yi's eyes had already told them that he was very firm in this matter.

As a result, these opponents only raised some questions about the details, and the public objections were no longer raised.

Seeing that the situation had been decided, Liu Yi struck while the iron was hot and said: "Since everyone has no objection in principle, and we can discuss the details slowly, then now I will officially reply to Li Xingqi and tell him about this decision." Everyone just wait a few minutes and don't leave. ”

With that, Liu Yi asked his secretary to contact Li Xingqi.

Liu Yi did this because he didn't want things to change again, so he immediately determined it, which made Tang Lun here anxious.

Tang Lun was very shocked when he heard Liu Yi's decision, he really didn't expect Liu Yi to accept Li Xingqi's conditions. In this way, he, a member of the Armaments Commission, is still under Liu Yi, and he has to be suspected of fornicating with Li Xingqi, which really outweighs the loss.

Originally, Tang Lun still thought that he would contact Li Xingqi as soon as the meeting ended, and tell Li Xingqi about Liu Yi's decision first, and at the same time find a way to get Li Xingqi to change the original conditions, even if he couldn't mess with the matter, he couldn't let Liu Yi get the position of vice chairman of the Military Commission.

However, Liu Yi asked everyone to wait in the conference room, so that Tang Lun could not contact Li Xingqi first, and everything would be determined immediately.

Tang Lun was so anxious that he fidgeted, but he couldn't leave, so he could only helplessly watch Liu Yi connect the video call and communicate with Li Xingqi.

During the video call, Liu Yi officially told Li Xingqi that he agreed to let Yaqiu join the security alliance, and he would also accept the positions offered to him by Li Xingqi, including the vice chairman of the alliance's military committee and the chairman of the economic development committee.

In fact, Li Xingqi also thought that Liu Yi might not agree, but he had two preparations, once Liu Yi refused to join the alliance, he would support Tang Lun, and Tang Lun would restrain Yaqiu economically, and Yaqiu would definitely not be allowed to become a potential opponent.

However, now Liu Yi not only agreed to join the alliance, but also accepted those positions, which made Li Xingqi feel overjoyed, and praised Liu Yi for his general knowledge, knowing how to adapt to the situation, and definitely playing a greater role in the future.

Seeing that things could not be changed, everyone present was naturally even more happy when they were happy, and those who were unhappy had to sigh secretly, while Tang Lun seemed to have been poured a basin of ice water on his head, which was cold from the top of his head to the soles of his feet.

A month later, Liu Yi personally flew to the Sea Eagle system to attend the inaugural meeting of Li Xingqi's Colonial Security Alliance.

Representatives from dozens of colonial galaxies gathered at Lan Shengxing to participate in this grand event, at which Li Xingqi announced a series of alliance conventions, and also introduced the various power structures in the alliance one by one.

Liu Yi first came into the limelight as the vice president of the Military Council, and before that, the name Liu Yi was rarely known.

Many of the attendees wondered how a small governor from a fringe colony could hold such an important position.
