Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Sky Has Fallen (2)
Interstellar Federation Era 217, September 25. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The six administrative systems of the Interstellar Federation, the forty-five civilization stars, almost all the celestial news TV and radio, are overwhelming, and the interstellar Federation and the Shadow Empire are about to go to war.
Many military and current affairs commentators, in talk shows, swore that the Interstellar Federation and the Shadow Empire would never go to war, and stated various reasons.
However, these comments, only three days later, became the most ridiculous joke of their lives.
Because on the third day, the president of the Interstellar Federation issued a presidential decree, in addition to stopping all economic and trade cooperation with the Shadow Empire, it also clearly stated that the Interstellar Federation and the Shadow Empire are now hostile countries.
The issuance of the presidential decree shocked everyone.
In the central area of the city, in the streets and alleys, the three-dimensional news hanging in the air was rendered by the media in turn, and after the news of the imminent war, many people collapsed on the spot.
The Star Federation is at war with the Shadow Empire!!
What does war mean? Means death! Meaning inflation! It means that for a long time to come, their current lives will be ruthlessly changed by war.
In almost every major shopping mall and department store in the city, the life, food and drink supplies on the shelves were all swept into the shopping cart by the panicked crowd.
Salarymen, who usually live by counting money, seem to have become super-rich, and the things they buy from the supermarket are brought home in big cars and small cars.
Almost everyone is worried that if there is a war with the Shadow Empire, it will cause prices to skyrocket, and the money in their hands will no longer be money, and what is not used will become pieces of waste paper.
The chaos of the market, like a plague, quickly spread from large and medium-sized cities to every corner village.
Although the federal government, through various media channels, has repeatedly called for the people to remain calm and restrained, the federal government will ensure that the daily life of the residents is provided.
However, the effect of all kinds of reassurance is minimal, and the chaotic trend of the market continues unabated.
In many shopping malls and department stores, there is a shortage of goods due to too many people buying, resulting in an emergency of looting.
On the first day of the presidential decree alone, the reporting rate of various crimes and robberies in the entire Interstellar Federation exceeded the total number of previous years.
Various government departments and police departments are busy with all kinds of things, and the entire Interstellar Federation seems to be the end of the world.
In the Interstellar Federation Military Department, Marshal Calvin should be the busiest person, in addition to attending various military meetings to prepare for war, government and military assistance meetings, but also to draw up a series of battle plans to present to the president.
In just a few days, the few black hairs on Marshal Calvin's head turned white.
Long Xiaotian knocked on the door, waited for permission, and entered the marshal's office.
Seeing the old man with bloodshot eyes, Long Xiaotian, an iron-blooded man with a height of one meter eight, his eyes turned slightly red.
"Oh my God, you're here!" Marshal Calvin saw Long Xiaotian, and his tired eyes showed a hint of joy.
Long Xiaotian gently put the insulated food box in his hand on the tea table next to him, carefully poured out a bowl of soup, and brought it to Calvin, "Uncle, you can drink some soup first, this is the black chicken and ginseng soup that my aunt got up at four o'clock in the morning and stewed for you personally!" ”
"You put it aside, I can't eat it now!" Marshal Calvin, shook his head slightly.
Long Xiaotian, who has always been obedient to Calvin, did not listen this time, but said persistently with the soup: "Uncle, you better drink the soup first, you have always taught me that people are iron and steel, and if you don't have a full stomach, how can you serve the Federation!" ”
Marshal Calvin was slightly stunned for a moment, and his face, which had been tense for many days, finally showed a little smile, "Okay!" Good! Can't I drink it? ”
A bowl of chicken soup was poured into his stomach, and Marshal Calvin's pale face finally regained a little blood.
Just as Long Xiaotian was about to pour the second bowl, Marshal Calvin waved his hand, signaling that there was no need to pour it again.
"Is there any news from the Xuanwu fleet?" Calvin's face returned to normal.
Long Xiaotian had a look of wanting to speak and stopped, he really didn't want to add a little trouble to the old man in front of him.
Under Calvin's scrutinizing gaze, Long Xiaotian finally gave in, and immediately reported: "Although General Ji Anlan led the Suzaku fleet to the battlefield in time to support, but because Colonel Donnaxiu was the first to flee the battlefield, the entire Xuanwu fleet was in a state of extreme chaos, and now the thirty-second and forty-eighth Xuanwu fleets, with a total of less than three thousand ships left, broke through and joined General Ji Anlan. ”
"Hmmm! Ji Anlan is indeed a tiger general! It is already very rare to be able to rescue 3,000 warships under the heavy encirclement of the black bear fleet. Calvin nodded, the situation was better than he expected.
Calvin got up from his chair, walked to the floor-to-ceiling glass window, looked into the distance, and said lightly: "As long as Ji Anlan insists on holding on for another five days, the three fleets of the Qinglong Galaxy will be able to arrive, and the pressure on Ji Anlan's shoulders will be much smaller!" ”
"The White Tiger Galaxy, the sixty-eighth, sixty-ninth, and seventy-second, aren't these three fleets the closest to General Ji Anlan? Why don't you let them rush to help? Long Xiaotian showed a puzzled look on his face, the outpost planet where the three fleets were stationed was only a three-day interstellar voyage away from the Newry system.
Previously, Marshal Calvin ordered the fleet of Suzaku and the Xuanwu Galaxy to set off, and Long Xiaotian was a little puzzled, so he took advantage of this and said it together.
Marshal Calvin glanced at Long Xiaotian approvingly, this nephew does have military talent, but he is not experienced enough, he knows too little, and said lightly: "The three fleets of the White Tiger Galaxy must not be mobilized, the reason why the Goshawk Fleet and the Wolf Warrior Fleet of the Shadow Empire have not yet attacked is because the three fleets of the White Tiger Galaxy are pulling them!" ”
"Oh!" Long Xiaotian nodded abruptly, blushing and scolding in a low voice: "Damn, such a simple truth, why didn't I think of it!" ”
"I can't blame you, there are a lot of things, with your current military position, I don't know yet!" Marshal Calvin said with a smile.
"Uncle, this time, will we really go to war with the Shadow Empire?" Long Xiaotian threw out the questions that he had been thinking about for a long time and couldn't find an answer.
"This ...... I'm afraid even I can't answer! Marshal Calvin shook his head lightly with a solemn face.
After a pause for a few seconds, Marshal Calvin sighed and said, "I hope that with the arrival of the White Tiger Galaxy fleet, the two sides are evenly matched, and the Shadow Empire can stop attacking, and the two sides will sit down and negotiate!" ”
At present, it is only a local battle, and whether it will develop into a full-scale war is also what Calvin is most worried about.
