Chapter 20: Slowly Unfolding Wings
The base camp of the Supreme Command of the Yanhuang Federation is really an example in the history of architecture, especially when comparing the central military building cluster of the Yanhuang Federation with the gorgeous luxury of the Jade Palace, the military powerhouse of the Galactic Empire, the comparison between the two is really speechless. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Sometimes Lu Lu will unconsciously think: "Even this has to be compared, do you have to fight?" Does it mean that we can't be the most gorgeous, so let's be the ugliest? However, such an idea can only be pondered in the heart, otherwise let the Supreme Inspector know, then even if Lu Lu is dragged out and shot for ten minutes, it will be useless.
Just when the Galactic Empire's Jade Palace held a meeting, the Military Intelligence Department of the Federation, the confidential place of the Yanhuang Capital Star, also secretly held an important meeting that gathered dozens of generals, and the content was also the wonderful weapons and equipment that suddenly appeared in Emma's territory. The level of this meeting can almost be considered the highest core meeting apart from the highest alert.
Of course, as far as the content and process discussed in this meeting of senior generals, which almost gathered the essence of the Yanhuang Federation Army, it was the result of private discussions with Lu Lu and Falcon, and they were all surprisingly consistent. The only difference is that the generals who can eat in the intelligence bureau are all natives of Yanhuang, and there will definitely be no common-sense cognitive impairment of Lu Lu, a traverser.
For example, Lu Lu still firmly believes that machines are stronger than human bodies, which is absolutely not the wrong view in the new era, because in the days of space drifting, if human beings do not evolve themselves, then what awaits the human species on the earth can only be eliminated or assimilated, instead of becoming the absolute ruler of various countries as it is now, so not only the improvement of adaptability, but most of the time, the human beings in the cosmic period who have been trained are only inferior to machines in terms of accuracy and stability, and the others are stronger than rigid machines.
"It has been confirmed that this equipment is not provided by our federal intelligence system, and the intelligence agents embedded on the side of the Akatz clan have not investigated anything abnormal." Although this uprising had a lot of benefits for the Yanhuang Federation, whether it was diplomacy or anything else, the intelligence services were slow to respond to this matter, and did not allow the federal government and the federal navy to get the most benefits, so in this case, the military took the lead in showing serious dissatisfaction with the intelligence system.
Although a long time ago, the fleet commander and the people of the intelligence system attacked each other for reasons that they simply did not understand. But the basket that appeared in the Ministry of Intelligence this time completely made the intelligence chief unable to raise his head at the Grand Admiral's meeting.
"As far as you can conclude, this thing is just a delusion that popped up out of nowhere?" Admiral An Wei's eyes widened, and with the momentum of not being angry and arrogant brought by a hundred battles, in an instant, he forced the officer who was making the report two steps back.
"That's the final conclusion of you guys who only get paid and don't work!" In an instant, he ripped off all the masks of peace and disguise, and the old man's eyes suddenly shone like stagnant water, his snow-white eyebrows were raised upward, and his eyes were blazing, not angry and arrogant.
"Yes, yes, at first the rioters simply operated construction machinery and wielded long strips of metal sticks that were originally used as construction supports, and later installed industrial laser cutters. Until now, according to the latest intelligence reality from the front, they actually installed a small Vulcan cannon used by ground armored units on the robot. ”
Facing the somewhat angry old man, the innocent young officer swallowed his saliva with difficulty, his eyes were 100,000 helpless, but he could only read the contents of the report word by word with a look of death. "This thing, in just a few days, has gone from a production tool to a murderous weapon. But even then, it's just waste. ”
This young staff officer only read through the intelligence conclusions transferred by the analysis department to the commanders attending the meeting, and the contents of this had nothing to do with him.
After hearing the words of the officers, the generals present all showed expressions of "sure enough", and the style of the assessment report was written by the weapons experts of the Federal Academy of Sciences, and these people who have dedicated their lives to scientific research always use some wonderful words when reporting. Either it's data that people can't understand, or it's a sentence structure that people can only show a helpless expression when they look at it.
It's just that these scientific research freaks who are full of formulas and data are the real cornerstones that ensure the competitiveness of the Yanhuang Federation Navy, without them, there would be no design of those new warships of the fleet, and there would be no weapons that the Yanhuang Federation Navy is proud of. Sometimes, the so-called blood and courage alone cannot be exchanged for a victory.
"From the fact that the upgrading process of these construction machines can be concluded, from the original design, the rioters did not add defensive armor to the humanoid machines, or rather, the use of these machines was very hasty. But the strange thing is that according to the information transmitted back in the middle and late stages, the rioting Mi slaves not only have the ability to add weapons to the engineering robots used, but also have the ability to produce and manufacture. And this kind of robot with defensive external armor is clearly beyond the scope of technology that these slaves can reach. After repeated deductions from data models and actual intelligence, our analysis division unanimously agreed that there was still an empire-level force pushing for the renewal of this weapon. ”
The head of the Information Analysis Division of the Federal Intelligence Agency, a lieutenant general with a long office belly and a beer belly, stood up and made a conclusive report. Although they did not really make achievements on the front line, they also deserve respect for fighting on the intelligence front, because the guys who fought day and night in the office, desperately squeezing their energy with coffee, so as to exchange the soldiers on the front line for valuable fighters are also the defenders of this country.
"Indeed, after the Federal Academy of Sciences analyzed the wreckage obtained by our intelligence officers, it also confirmed that this matter could not be modified to this extent by relying solely on the strength of the local Mi elements." With the nod of approval from the intelligence chief, General Li Cheng, the head of the Supreme Inspector, who was already a little bald, became even more entangled: "What's the matter, is the Emma Empire really a fragrant bun?" ”
For everything, it is necessary not only to take into account a small aspect, but also to coordinate the overall situation with supreme supervision, which is almost equivalent to carrying the security of the entire country. Such a heavy responsibility is placed on the shoulders of an old man, and everyone present is a little unbearable, but these generals with generals on their shoulders know better that even if the military ranks are not far apart, this first-class admiral is the only existence in the federal navy after all.
Whether it is qualifications, ability, or even prestige, among the people present, there is no one who can compare. So, I could only look at this old man and take this heavy responsibility for granted. Of course, many times, the old man can always find a way to relax. Although the relaxation of the top superintendent will always make some juniors cry and laugh.
Unlike the Supreme Command of the Yan and Yellow Federation, which is not the parliament but the supreme command, and unlike the family empire of the Emma Empire, the palace of the Galactic Empire with the highest dictatorial power, the golden and splendid Emerald Palace is the only supreme symbol of this country with a long history and vast territory, and it is also the place where the ruler who occupies the largest world in the known universe discusses state affairs with his staff.
This complex of buildings in the typical Baroque luxury style strives to prove to the world that human beings are the ultimate in art and beauty, with various Roman columns, reliefs and retro cloister halls, this royal palace that fully inherits the architectural concept of the Earth Age is the symbol of the empire established by the earliest earth settlers.
This empire that has been standing for thousands of years and has also experienced degradation and destruction and has been reborn has a background that is enough to make other countries fearful, even the Yanhuang Federation, which is now developing rapidly, is just a part of this behemoth that has been independent from this behemoth a few centuries ago because of political opinions, or other reasons that have long been obliterated on the back side of history, and for a long time, the only country in the Galactic Empire armed with the Galactic Army is the number one imaginary enemy of the Yanhuang Federation Navy.
However, at this time, in the Jade Palace, the symbol of imperial power and empire, the first star of the Galactic Empire, which is 10,000 light-years away from the central star of Yanhuang, there was a conversation similar to the content and topic of the top-secret meeting of the Supreme Command of the Yanhuang Federation, and the same views and opinions on the slave rebellion and related humanoid weapons in the Emma Empire, one of the powers at the imperial level.
"Have you read this information? Do you think ours should develop such equipment? The emperor on the throne sat rather casually, and in an unhurried tone, asked his courtiers. Gentle in tone but unquestionably authoritative, Gregory III was closer to the image of a superior in the minds of ordinary people to the disrespectful old man at the head of Lulu.
It seems to be gentle but there is no lack of courage to make decisions in the face of problems, but it is full of cold and resolute and independent judgment and discriminating thinking that is not affected by anything, no matter what kind of things are faced, it is always an indifferent look. Such a superior person, once angry, will inevitably make everyone feel afraid. Unfortunately, however, for various reasons, today, this group of courtiers is bound to be subjected to the wrath of the emperor.
"Do you think that such a brief report can shirk responsibility for your poor implementation? Intelligence requires patience and accuracy, but it also needs to be timely. The news of the armed insurrection was not on my desk until a week later, and if there was chaos in the country, how long were you going to make me wait? The emperor threw the paperwork in his hand to the head of the intelligence department. The poor fellow, although he can be regarded as a big man on the outside, can only bow his head in the face of Emperor Gregory III.
"No, Your Majesty, this report is a matter of routine. As for the detailed report, allow me to report back to you separately later. "Raeder. Ma Feide, as the emperor's most trusted courtier, has always had a graceful and elegant look, and when he answered, he was extraordinarily calm.
Even though the emperor was furious at the court meeting and dismissed the head of the CIA's Emma Division on the spot, in fact, the emperor was just taking this opportunity to fight for more power in the regime.
For the Galactic Empire, which rarely interferes in domestic administration and only firmly holds military power in the hands of the royal family, the supreme body of its day-to-day administrative power is called, the Parliament of the Galactic Empire. And all intelligence work under the Galactic Empire is indeed under the jurisdiction of the Council. In fact, in a healthy country, there will be multiple intelligence services, and they are in charge of intelligence work in different fields, so these departments sometimes work together, and sometimes they fight.
The highest department of the Galactic Empire's intelligence system, called the National Security Joint Council, an intelligence review council composed of several parliamentarians, is just an ordinary bureaucratic organization. Of course, as a country that retains the imperial system, the imperial family also has a powerful intelligence system, the Galactic Empire's Naval Intelligence Bureau, and at present, the head of this intelligence bureau is concurrently served by the Imperial Minister of War.
Therefore, although the current activities in the Emma Empire are the responsibility of the Imperial Intelligence Agency under the Parliament, due to various problems, it is the members of the Naval Intelligence Department who are now responsible for the Emperor's wrath.
In the Emerald Palace, in the emperor's study, only a few high-ranking officials were qualified to enter, the emperor changed his previous angry appearance, and just calmly asked his courtiers.
"Well, Maffy, I'm sure you can tell? It's a terrible weapon, or at the very least, it will greatly improve the combat capabilities of other races. "The emperor is not a simple politician, and if you want to become the emperor of the largest empire in the universe, you need to have a considerable degree of qualifications. At the very least, a sharper sense of politics than a politician and a clearer mind than a scientist are essential qualities.
"That's true, but it's also a piece of equipment with obvious flaws, and these things aren't necessary for strong people of the Empire. Of course, the emergence of this kind of thing makes a huge plan carried out by the imperial intelligence system even more perfect. "The man who could speak without haste or slowness under the pressure of Gregory III's supreme majesty was this old man standing to the right of the throne, with gray hair and an equally gray beard.
However, if this person is despised by defining this person as an old man, he will definitely pay a heavy price for this contempt. Jiang is still old and spicy, this proverb that came out of the earth's Yanhuang language a long, long time ago has been widely recognized by many rising stars who have suffered a big loss at the hands of this old fox, and the strength of this unattractive old man can be seen from this.
"Oh? Do you mean, is this a massive strategic fraud? The emperor, who was by no means a mediocre person, frowned tightly, and from the short words of his courtiers, the leader could vaguely hear some meaning.
"Exactly, my wise majesty." Facing the emperor on the throne, he bowed slightly respectfully, and placed his right hand horizontally on his chest, which is a noble etiquette that has been handed down since ancient times. This has always stood firmly by the emperor's side, and is one of the few powerful ministers who can be trusted by the imperial family.
A seemingly ordinary old man is none other than the largest military entity in this universe, the de facto highest official of the Galactic Empire's army, Raeder. The Minister of War of Malfeld is a human being who is over two hundred and fifty years old in both appearance and fact, and has entered the final stage of his life, and it is this old man who is only in the last years of his life in the eyes of many people, but he is still an important pillar of the behemoth of the Galactic Empire. Some people may be confused by the grace and sluggishness of this old man, but it is the existence of this old man that has made the fact that the Federation Navy has not been able to cross the borders of the Galactic Empire since the 100 years of the Revolutionary War.
"The old foxes on the other side of the Federation won't be fooled." Because it was just a private meeting, the emperor who didn't care too much about his image showed an elegant smile in the face of his trusted courtiers, and it was rare to have a little ridicule in his tone. Although there has always been a struggle between the royal family and the parliament for the actual executive power of the empire, the royal family has gradually regained the lost power in recent years. However, even in the current situation, the majestic Gregory III was not satisfied.
"With the shrewdness of that old fellow, of course he will not be fooled. However, with such a well-targeted solution, they will be happy to help us fill the loopholes in the plan. The face of the Minister of War, Mafeld, showed the same smile as the emperor, although in many ways, the two countries always want to pull each other's back, but as long as there are common interests, the two countries will spare no effort to cooperate.
This old guy with a certain black belly is a difficult character who has been fighting with the Supreme Overseer all his life and has not been able to distinguish the winner or loser. However, given the grievances between the two countries, it is not uncommon for such entangled rivals to be between the Yanhuang Federation and the Galactic Empire.
"Although it is not important in terms of military strategy, I think basic civilian research is still necessary, because science always gives birth to truth in countless coincidences." To use half-jokingly, the Supreme Emperor simply decided the final direction of this proposal.
"Yes, Your Majesty, the General Staff of the Galactic Imperial Army has begun to study countermeasures on the issue of the proliferation of humanoid mobile weapons. As long as the intelligence work is in place, the powerful Galactic Starship Army can carry out counter-attacks at any time. "Just as the Federation Navy never doubts its own strength, the Starship Army, which the Galactic Empire is proud of, will not doubt either. After all, they have the largest fleet in the universe.
"Let's do what they set up this time, as long as the results don't disappoint me." A faint word of expectation was not only a summary of the meeting, but also a signal that the emperor hinted that his cronies could leave.
After the few courtiers left, only the lonely figure remained in the empty hall. Maybe this is the price of standing at the pinnacle of power, whether people are lonely because they are excellent, or excellent because they are lonely, no one can say clearly. It's just that no one will see that behind the badge condensed by glory is an indelible loneliness.
Finally, in the silence, the emperor of the Galactic Empire stood up, as always, unhurried off the throne, this middle-aged emperor is still tall, neat steps accompanied by the smooth military boots heel and marble floor and the crisp echo, but this eloquent monarch suddenly remembered the war deep in his heart when he was young, like a knife-sharpened jaw part shows incomparable perseverance, but finally in a corridor corner, through the transformation of light and shadow, There was still a vague hint of helpless mockery, and there was a sigh of muttering. "Animation... Such a precious monument to the earth.
