At this time, Yang Yi finally understood why the relationship between Zhan Ruilin and the Hidden Spirit Clan had taken a sharp turn for the worse after the Fifth Greenwich War. In another position, if it was Yang Yi, after seeing through the hypocritical face of the top civilization, he would definitely make the same choice.

The question is, is it wise to do so?

If it's just an individual, there's nothing wrong with it. However, Zhan Ruilin is the commander of the Third Theater and one of the nine most influential marshals of the Human Federation. His every move must not be regarded as a personal act, and his break with the Heavenly Saint Emperor meant that the Human Federation, at least the Third War Zone, broke with the Hidden Spirit Clan. If the war breaks out again, without the support of the Hidden Spirit Race, the Human Federation will definitely be more than lucky.

Thinking of this, Yang Yi sighed secretly.

"Actually, all we need is time."

"Marshal ......"

"You have to believe that with enough time, humanity will definitely be able to surpass the seven top civilizations." Zhan Ruilin probably felt that Yang Yi had been hit and needed encouragement. "More than a thousand years ago, when I was a soldier, I had a question when I was about the same time as you are now. For thousands of years, after several full-scale wars, the powerful civilizations in the vicinity fell one after another under the iron hooves of the enemy, why did the seemingly weak human federation not only not suffer the catastrophe, but also became stronger and stronger, becoming the only civilization in the south of the Greenwich meteorite belt? Could it be that human beings are inherently a civilization born for war, or that human beings are different from other civilizations? ”

Yang Yi was slightly stunned, and looked at Zhan Ruilin in surprise.

"Obviously, you have similar questions."

"Marshal, the answer to this question ......"

"I don't know, and I can't tell. Still, there's one person who knows, and you know that. ”

"Who?"

Zhan Ruilin smiled faintly and said, "Wait a minute, Lin Xiaoting will arrange a task for you, and come to see me after it is completed, and then we will discuss the matter of going to the Hidden Spirit Star for an appointment." Only, I suggest you go home and have a look before you go on a mission. You've been in the military for a while, so it's time to go back and check it out. ”

Yang Yi was stunned again, not knowing why Zhan Ruilin wanted to change the topic.

It's just that Zhan Ruilin didn't explain much, and after finishing speaking, he sat on the sofa and waved his hand, signaling that Yang Yi should salute and leave.

Doubts are doubts, Zhan Ruilin gave an order to evict customers, and Yang Yi is not cheeky and does not leave.

Lin Xiaoting and Lin Liexun did not leave, but waited outside.

Seeing Yang Yi come out, Lin Xiaoting gave Lin Liexun an order, and asked Lin Liexun to take Yang Yi away.

"Colonel ......"

"The mission has come down, and it's up to you to lead the team to the Greenwich Meteorite Belt to investigate the situation and get evidence of the Silicon Alliance's attack. I have contacted the Third Fleet and Du Wantu will give it his full support. Because it's just a reconnaissance operation, and it's about whether or not to mobilize for war, you have to keep a low profile. According to Lin Shuai's orders, you can only lead one team. I've called all the members of the Special Reconnaissance Brigade and you're up to you. ”

Yang Yi was stunned when he heard this, it seemed that Lin Liexun had already made arrangements.

"Time is of the essence, the Shadow is ready, and after selecting the personnel, it will set off immediately."

"What about the plan?"

"Plan?" Lin Liexun glanced at Yang Yi and said, "You are the commander of this operation, so it's up to you to decide what to do, and I will only provide support and support." ”

Yang Yi was speechless and had nothing to say.

"Boy, this is a mission personally arranged by Lin Shuai, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Successfully complete the task, and when you come back, you will definitely soar. Even if he fails, he will be posthumously recognized as a martyr. To put it bluntly, everyone else dreams of getting such an opportunity, and you don't know how to lift it. ”

"Uncle Seven, this is obviously pushing me into the oil pot."

"Come on, it's just a reconnaissance mission, and it's not a big deal. Besides, with Du Wantu leading the Third Fleet to suppress the formation, no matter how bad it is, it can't be much worse. ”

"Do you think I can count on Du Wantu?"

"Don't say it, you really have to count on him."

"What do you mean?"

Lin Liexun smiled and patted Yang Yi on the shoulder a few times. "I know, you have a relationship with Du Wantu. To tell you the truth, I've long found out that it was Du Wantu who threw you on Lava Star in the first place. It's just that you can distinguish between public and private, and you can't hold grudges for personal vendettas. ”

"I have to thank him for your words?"

"So to speak."

Yang Yi rolled his eyes, he really didn't know which one Lin Liexun was from.

"In Du Wantu's usual style of doing things, if you have no value, he will just kill you instead of throwing you on the lava star where birds don't."

"Value?"

"Any idea why he did it? At that time, the No. 7777 surveillance post where you were located was attacked, and after receiving the signal from the 'Flying Shuttle', Du Wantu led the fleet to rush over as soon as possible. Of course, not to save people, but to get evidence that the Silicon Charm Alliance is waging war. In other words, he is a complete war maniac, who has been agitating the Federation to mobilize for war in advance, and even advocating that it should strike first. Before that, people like him were not welcomed, not to mention those wine bags and rice bags from the federal authorities, even inside the war zone, no one supported him. It's just that right now, we need people like him, and he needs us. ”

"As long as we can get the evidence to start a war, he will cooperate with us?"

Lin Liexun nodded. "Du Wantu is a very simple person, he only wants war, not to replace anyone, let alone usurp power. Besides, if it weren't for him, how would you have met Princess Siga on Lava Star, and how would you have had the experience that followed? ”

"Seventh Uncle......

"As long as it doesn't harm the overall situation, you go to Du Wantu to settle accounts, not only do I not object, but I also fully support it. Just for now, hopefully you'll focus on the big picture. ”

Yang Yi sighed secretly and nodded in agreement.

"Alright, you go talk to the captain, and I'll bring the others over later."

Sending Yang Yi outside the cabin where Lin Feng was, Lin Liexun said goodbye and left.

Seeing Lin Feng, Yang Yi roughly told him about meeting Zhan Ruilin. Lin Feng was very surprised, but after thinking about it, he also felt that there was no need to make a fuss.

"Lin Shuai asked me to go home first, and mentioned that I was an old acquaintance with my grandfather."

"It's casual or ......"

"Specifically mentioned."

"This ......"

Yang Yi let out a long breath and said, "Although Lin Shuai didn't say it explicitly, there must be a reason. Anyway, I'll have to go back to Grandpa and have a good talk. ”

"In that case, let's leave early."

"There must be a very important reason for this." Yang Yi gritted his teeth and said, "Things about me, especially the secrets on my body, can't be known to too many people." Although Uncle Seven asked me to choose personnel, I didn't think it was necessary, just call Jackson and them. ”

"This ......"

"If it's just a reconnaissance operation, it's not too much of a problem. Even if not, there is a Third Fleet to press the formation. Besides, Jackson they need a chance to perform. ”

After pondering for a while, Lin Feng nodded and said, "If you think it's okay, I have no opinion." It's just that you can't let others sit idle. Anyway, I'm the captain of the Special Reconnaissance Brigade, and if I favor newcomers, it will definitely cause criticism, and it's best for everyone to benefit from this operation. ”

"Let them follow the fleet and take care of it."

"All?"

Yang Yi nodded and said, "Since it's to get credit, everyone has to have a share." Besides, if the Third Fleet needs to intervene, the more manpower the better. ”

"Okay, I'll talk to them."

"Okay, I'll go find Jackson and the others, and then we'll meet up directly on the Shadow."

After deciding on the matter, the two went their separate ways.

Yang Yi didn't delay much, found Jackson and the others, and after confirming that Jackson's injuries were fine, he took them to the "Shadow". More than ten minutes later, Lin Feng also rushed over. Although several squadron leaders had some complaints, they did not make Lin Feng feel embarrassed.

After reporting to Lin Liexun, Yang Yi gave Alun a sailing order.

Destination: Bone Star.

It is a distant colonized planet, about a hundred light-years from Shennong, just south of the Greenwich Meteorite Belt, and like Shennong, it is also the "trophy" of the Human Federation in the Greenwich War, only even more recently, after the First Greenwich War more than 4,000 years ago. As such, the Bone Planet is one of the deadly claims of the longest reign of the Human Federation.

Unfortunately, a long history does not equal prosperity.

Due to overexploitation, the resources of the Bone Burial Star were depleted more than a thousand years ago. Although it was a blessing in disguise that during the Fifth Greenwich War, the Bone Burial Star was not invaded and ushered in a flash in the pan, but the harsh living environment made it all a thing of the past. Before the end of the Fifth Greenwich War, with the Human Federation regaining lost territory, the Bone Burial Star was abandoned by the war Nanming.

Of course, for Yang Yi, these are all in the past.

In Yang Yi's understanding, the Bone Burial Star is a garbage dump dedicated to containing scum. Although the environment is not bad, not as bad as Lava Star, people who have the conditions want to leave the Bone Star without exception. In fact, this is also the ideal that Yang Yi has set since he was a child.

To put it simply, the Bone Burial Star is a Sin Star.

On a planet that is heavily urbanized due to high development, more than eighty percent of its inhabitants are criminals or fugitives, at least with criminal records. It is very rare to be able to get out of the mud without being stained, and if it were not for his grandfather's strict discipline, Yang Yi would probably not even be able to pass the conscription review.

It can be said that Yang Yi's somewhat bizarre nerves and his virtue of slipping the tongue are closely related to the environment in which he grew up.

When the "Shadow" rushed out of the jump passage and saw the bright planet in front of him, Yang Yi had a special feeling in his heart.

When signing up to join the army, Yang Yi secretly swore that he would either shroud himself in horse leather or return to his hometown in fine clothes. The former is certainly not to be talked about, and the latter can only be said to be reluctant.

"Coming soon?"

Looking back at Lin Feng, Yang Yi's mood suddenly improved a lot.

Although the rank of captain is a little unreachable, bringing a daughter-in-law who is like a flower and jade back must be very face-saving and can make people envy the beautiful things of death.
