Chapter 89: The Crisis of War (2nd Update)
Heishi Xing, Heining City, a large conference room in the highest administrative building of the military region.
On the oval conference table, Cheng Guohao, dressed in military uniform, sits at the top, a neat row of uniformed personnel on the right, and a neat row of government personnel in straight shirts on the left.
If you look closely, you will find that many of them are just virtual three-dimensional projections.
"So, that Sky-Shaking Giant Eagle was dealt with by the Imperial Legion's mecha division?" Cheng Guohao frowned, his expression was complicated, both relieved because the Heaven-Shaking Giant Eagle Beast had solved it, and worried because there was actually a high-level mecha master on the planet.
"Indeed, how can we Blackstone Star be mechists?" Like Cheng Guohao, the planet chief, who was also sitting alone at the other end of the oval table, opened his mouth with a full headache.
Because the Imperial Starship has left, the security of this planet has been relaxed again, but at this moment, a big man suddenly appeared? It's still staring at them!
"The people of the Imperial Legion last time also left a recruiting office in our Blackstone Star." The rugged man, the boss of the Inspection Division, spoke, "Their plan is to train recruits on our Blackstone Star. β
"What, that is, after the conscription, they will not leave?"
"What are you kidding, there will be a mecha division of this level in the recruitment office?"
"Wait, why are you training in our Blackstone Star? Isn't it time to go to the unexplored desert star or the military star? β
"yes, what if they make a bunch of half-orcs who have failed to evolve?"
"It's too dangerous, Commander, Captain, we should send a message asking them to leave!"
"They're out of line!"
β¦β¦
The crowd began to gossip.
"Alright, stop arguing!" Cheng Guohao knocked on the table, "Who is the person in charge of the conscription office?" β
"I only know that the surname is Xiao, he is an imperial major, and he should have come out of the big family of the super planet to practice, and there is no other information for the time being."
"Can you investigate in detail?"
"It's difficult, people from the big family, how can we be qualified to investigate them."
"Your Ministry of Affairs won't take advantage of the relationship to trick them?" Cheng Guohao rubbed his forehead with a headache.
"What does it matter, every time we go, we ask for money, how dare we go!" The boss of the Finance Division, a Sven man wearing glasses, said angrily, his face a little ugly, "Just five minutes ago, I received a reimbursement list from the Imperial Military Recruitment Office, and the other party said that because of the loss of the mecha caused by the action against the Sky Shaking Giant Eagle Beast for us, we were asked to bear the maintenance cost of the mecha. β
"How much do you want to speak?" The planet chief asked with a frown.
"Pay S$500,000,000 ......"
"Lie down, why don't they rob it!" Someone in the military burst into foul language.
Bullying them for not seeing a mecha! The lion opened his mouth.
"They're robbing us." A faint voice came from the corner.
All:......
"Forget it, 500 million is 500 million." The planet chief rubbed his head, "Negotiate with them, get the corpse of that S-class sky-shaking giant eagle beast, we will process it into a high-level evolution liquid, and we won't lose." β
"Captain, I haven't finished my sentence yet." The treasurer pushed his glasses.
Narrator: The Empire's legions are all stinking dead rascals, and you think that's all they want? How naΓ―ve!
"Uh, and the request?" The planet chief was stunned.
The Finance Department continued, "The other party also asked us to process the corpse of the Sky Shaking Giant Eagle into an evolution liquid for them for free. Well, the ingredient labor is all sponsored by us free of charge. β
"Damn, shameless!"
"I'm going to rob our Blackstone Star bank!"
"It's just too much! This request must not be granted! β
β¦β¦
"Alright, be quiet." The Planet Commander felt that his head hurt even more, "Old Cheng, what do you mean by them?" β
Cheng Guohao sighed, his face solemn, "Because I didn't receive an exact notice, I didn't want to say it, but now, there are all kinds of signs that something is really wrong." β
"What's wrong?"
"Based on the information, I suspect that there is a Zerg invasion on Redstone."
"What! Zerg? β
"How is it possible, how can we have Zerg in the Shiyao Department?"
"Aren't we still a few small galaxies away from the front line? Could it be that the Zerg have invaded the Nanjiang system next door? β
"According to our investigation, the six planets in the Nanjiang system are all normal, and only the Red Rock Star is very abnormal. However, the Empire has not yet issued an official document for Redstone to be listed as a war star. β
The Finance Department pushed his glasses again, his expression was a little gloomy, "Their intention is obvious, this is to consume the human and financial resources of our Blackstone Star, to send combat power to the front-line Redstone Star, and to focus the war on the Redstone Star, if it is not successful, it will be benevolent." β
"Sss The Planet Leader took a breath, and his face sank suddenly, "In other words, if the Red Stone Star completely clears out the Zerg, everyone will be happy, but if the war spreads, the other six planets of our Shiyao system are very likely to be abandoned!" β
"Yes, I suspect that's what the Empire is doing when it doesn't issue official documents." Cheng Guohao summed up with a heavy expression.
"So what do we do?"
"Will the Zerg invade?"
"With the armed forces of our Black Rock Star, how can we resist it?"
"What should I do?"
β¦β¦
"What's the noise!" Cheng Guohao slapped the table again, and swept around the row of political personnel in straight suits with disdain, "What's wrong with the Zerg, as long as the Zerg finds out early, what's so scary!" β
"Yes, don't be like ordinary citizens who don't know anything." The planet chief spoke, issuing a series of orders in an orderly manner, "Although it is just a guess, it is imperative to take precautions." To make a detailed statement of income and expenditure, I need to know our specific financial reserves. The production of the Arsenal and the Evolution Liquid Potion Factory should be arranged as soon as possible, and the reserves of the nutrient solution should also keep up with the ......"
"Lao Cheng, you find a reasonable reason to arrange the conscription plan, we also want to expand the army, not afraid of 10,000, just in case. Don't worry about military spending. β
"Yes, if there is no problem with military spending, it is not a problem for all the people to be soldiers."
β¦β¦
At the end of the meeting, most of the virtual avatars of the participants disappeared in place, and a small number of uniformed personnel also left the conference room.
In the end, there were only two people left in the entire huge conference room.
"Father, the Sky-Shaking Giant Eagle Beast attacked Black Landing City." Cheng Rong opened his mouth and said calmly, "Xiaoyu is in Heilin City. β
"That little rabbit cub ......" Although the tone was very casual, Cheng Guohao's body stiffened honestly and tensed, "It should be fine, right?" β
"He just contacted me, it's fine."
Quietly, Cheng Guohao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "Doesn't he like music, Ah Rong, you can use the name of music to get him to another planet as soon as possible, the farther away from the Black Rock Star, the better." β
"Yes, father."
After arranging his youngest son, Cheng Guohao glanced at Cheng Rong fixedly, "Ah Rong, I'll apply for a place for you to go to the Higher Military Region of the Military Star for a period of time." β
"Father, as a soldier, I will not flee from the battlefield." Cheng Rong was straight, and his face refused firmly.
"You ......" Cheng Guohao was stunned and sighed, "Then let's live and die with the Black Stone Star." β
