Chapter 164: Extraneous Branches (Part II)
After a few more space jumps, Gao Hesuo no longer recorded these, carefully maintained the armband, and by the way, checked all the conventional weapons of the Ice Brake, and then sat down and waited again.
The landing seemed normal, and the soldiers on the battleship came over to inform the two that they had arrived at the base. When I came out of the battleship, I saw a very unfamiliar base in front of me, and I didn't know any of the personnel. It was night, and the starry sky seemed to have never been seen before, obviously not from any of the several colonizing planets. The environment here seems to be very suitable for human life, and it seems that it is a hidden planet.
A lieutenant colonel came over and led the two into the base, the main building of the base is underground, and the ground part is only defensive fire and battleship berths. The lieutenant colonel didn't say much, just led the two into the elevator, and then pressed a floor, but he didn't go in.
With the idea of not entering the tiger's den, the two of them also asked themselves to cooperate tacitly, they were not afraid of anything, and they stood in the elevator with a relaxed expression, watching the indicator light slowly arrive.
The elevator door opens and there is a large hallway, the corridor is not long, and there is only one door at the end. The door was ajar, and it was hard to see inside, only some light leaking out. The two of them looked at each other, smiled, and strode through the door.
Silently, the door behind him was closed. It's a big room, with a few chairs and a conference table and a big screen, it looks like a conference room, but nothing else, that's all.
"You may be seated!" An unfamiliar voice came from a speaker in the corner of the room. The two looked at each other and smiled, said nothing, and sat down. As they sat down, the large screen began to light up, revealing a huge image of a person.
"I'm so presumptuous to invite you here." The person on the other side of the screen was sitting elegantly on a retro sofa that was very comfortable at first glance, the military uniform on his body was very fitting, and looking at his military rank, he was actually a major general.
No matter what his purpose was, but now after all, he was a commander with a higher rank than himself, and the good military training quality made Gao He and the others immediately stand up and salute. The general on the opposite side was also unambiguous, and got up to return the salute.
"I greatly appreciate your excellent military qualities." After motioning for the two to sit down, the major general opposite said this without a beginning.
"So you brought us in this way?" Gao He replied-for-tat.
"When did you find out?" He already knew that this would happen, and when Gao He's first words when he came in were not to ask about his identity or the whereabouts of General Zhao Qi, the major general knew that they already knew everything.
"Board the battleship for half an hour!" At this time, Gao He didn't say any kind words, and directly told him the result.
The major general's face on the other side changed slightly, and then immediately turned off the voice here, as if he was talking to someone, and his face showed a relaxed expression.
"You have tried to contact General Zhao Qi on the battleship, it seems that what you said is true!" The major general seemed to have suddenly increased his interest in Gao He: "It seems that I still underestimated the two of you, and it is indeed not in vain to be able to find clues in just a few months." It's a pity, it's a pity! ”
Neither of them accosted a word, and the major general on the opposite side sighed as if watching the play. It took about ten minutes to see his regretful expression before the major general turned his attention to Gao He again: "Aren't you afraid? Immediately, seeing them sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai platform, he immediately laughed: "Want to delay time? ”
"Don't be delusional!" Thinking that he realized Gao He's intentions, the major general shook his head gently: "Impossible." Your communications on the battleship have been completely cut off, and it is not to mention here that it is impossible to get the information out there. Blinked: "Also, you don't have to count on the positioning system in your equipment, not to mention that we have blocked the information, just at such a distance, that poor little instrument can't send the location information back." There is no military scanning system here, and besides, it is still 300 meters underground, so it is impossible to find your location. ”
"Now can you identify yourself? Checkmate! Anyway, now that the two of them are already turtles in the urn in each other's eyes, Gao He is now putting on a posture of cooperating with the other party's proud application, and obtaining information little by little.
"Didn't you guess?" The major general was very stunned, could it be that he was too careful? But the matter has come to this point, there is no turning back from the bow, and the surname Suo is not doing anything: "I am Major General Jones of the Operations Staff of the Military Department, I believe you should have heard my name." ”
Major General Jones, Gao He and Bing Sha glanced at each other, and the last military liaison revealed by the vampire old man turned out to be this guy. However, this guy is also a well-informed person, and as soon as the general's order to transfer warships was issued, he knew the specific target address and immediately deployed another warship. Such authority clearly shows that it is very easy to add some false orders to the combat order. The Operational Staff seems to be doing just that.
At first, he was only suspicious of some high-ranking figures and tried to look around for evidence, but now Major General Jones's actions have given Gao He another choice, is there something wrong with the entire operational staff or a few key people in it? When I thought about the responsibilities of these departments that I had learned in military training, the more I thought about it, the more likely it became.
After a little distraction, Major General Jones thought that Gao He had seen through his intentions, and he was a little proud. However, Gao He's words immediately made him feel that the worry just now was a bit superfluous, and if he didn't bring Gao He and them over, something big would probably happen.
"You were the one who revealed the military's secrets to that vampire family!" Things have come to this point, and it doesn't matter if Gao He knows about General Jones or not, anyway, the result is the same.
"As I said, your investigation has been very effective, and I am very impressed by it. Especially the two of you almost rely on your own strength to find clues, it's not easy, you are the best soldiers. Jones understood that he had not made a wrong judgment this time, and the expression on his face seemed to be getting more and more serious: "It's a pity! ”
Turning his head to listen to the report of someone next to him, General Jones also turned his head around. Gao He and Bing Sha also heard some unusual sounds in the corridor, but no one paid much attention to them.
"You can't get out anyway, just ask any questions!" General Jones seemed to be suddenly generous, probably because of the voices outside.
"Why?" Three simple words is Gao He's problem.
"No, the current social system is unreasonable......" Before Jones could continue his possible tirade attacking the rationality of the social system, Gao He interrupted him: "To be practical, there is no need to cover up with such clumsy excuses and seemingly upright revolutionary reasons, which cannot be used as a reason for you to divulge military secrets!" ”
"What do you know about a little brat?" Jones yelled with red eyes as if he was a little annoyed, trying to refute Gao He, but there seemed to be no more reasonable reason, just sitting there panting after yelling, not knowing what he was thinking. However, even in the screen, he seems to have been avoiding Gao He's gaze, and from his face, there seems to be some ashamed red.
"So, can you give me a reason for your betrayal?" Gao He and Bing Sha had been sitting on two chairs side by side in a standard military posture since the beginning of their conversation, and they had not moved. The words spoken lightly at this moment seemed to have a great majesty to Jones, and Jones was a little restless at this moment.
Suddenly, as if Jones didn't know where to run away from the shame just now, he instantly regained his majesty as a general: "Don't care why I did this, you just need to know that this time you are dead!" ”
"Not necessarily!" Gao He smiled softly, as if he had never cared about his life or death.
"Not necessarily?" Jones sneered: "The room specially prepared for the two of you, the entire three hundred meters underground, there is only one room like you, the elevator room has been filled with fast-drying cement, and there is a special thing called the formation outside in your words, even if you are not an ordinary person, even if you have the ability to reach the sky, it is impossible to get out of it." ”
"In that case!" Gao He still had no intention of standing up, and so did Bingsha. Sitting in place, Gao He asked calmly again: "Then, I won't ask you about the reason for leaking military secrets, I just want to know how important the 3.8 million soldiers can occupy in your mind?" ”
"What did you say?" Jones was shocked, his body had already trembled and ejected from the old sofa, and he was so athletic that he definitely had a fight with a soldier in the front-line army like Gao He. Pointing at Gao He, his fingers trembled a little: "You, you, what the hell are you talking about?" ”
"I say, what conflict do the 3.8 million people in the energy war have with you or your comrades' so-called revolutionary cause, and why should they all be sacrificed?" This time, Gao He was no longer a calm word, but a direct roar. Seeing Jones on the other side, his body trembled.
"You, what you said, I don't understand!" Jones stuttered for a moment, but the obvious tone of weakness was evident to anyone with a discerning eye who could see why.
"You better wait until you have a chance to go to the court-martial!" Gao He let out a long sigh and stood up. Raise the arm cuff and hook the trigger. The large screen that occupies the entire wall and the several cameras and speakers scattered around it are all reduced to fragments in an instant.
