Chapter 17: Hyogo No. 1

Stepping forward along the stairs of the parade platform, Fang Mingwei saw Lin Yitian high above him at a glance.

During this time, the etiquette of meeting His Majesty the Emperor had already been practiced many times. Although no one can be sure that he will be summoned by His Majesty, being prepared is a necessary lesson for all those in position.

Coming to the bottom of the steps, Fang Mingwei knelt down without hesitation.

Although the Earth Alliance is not an imperial country, the ritual of prostrations has long been abolished. But Fang Mingwei knew that second-level civilized countries did not have any status in the eyes of these people. If he had shown himself to be unruly at the beginning, then His Majesty the Emperor would be furious, and the guy who ate on his neck would be a little dangerous.

When he was approaching an absolute disadvantage, Fang Mingwei didn't mind clamping his tail and being a man, and he was confident that his subsequent performance would leave a deep impression on these people, so that they would not dare to underestimate themselves from now on.

Nodding slightly, Lin Yitian said: "Fang Mingwei, yes, he is really the best among people." ”

Fang Mingwei was stunned, His Majesty the Emperor seemed to have known his name for a long time, could it be arranged by the Hua family? Thinking about it again, it is a little unlikely, if the Hua family has so much energy, they will not let themselves shrink at the beginning of training.

As soon as Lin Yitian opened his mouth to speak, the entire parade platform was suddenly silent. It's just that there are a little more doubts in the eyes of countless pairs of people looking at Fang Mingwei, how did His Majesty know about this person.

"Fang Qing, I heard that you are from the Earth Alliance, right?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"The first time you went to the empire and saw my world, how did you feel?" Lin Yitian asked with a pleasant face.

Seeing His Majesty the Emperor's expression, many ministers below were making plans in their hearts, this little guy is really lucky, he can get His Majesty's favor, and his future is limitless, and there will be one more person in his family who needs to pay attention.

Fang Mingwei swallowed a mouthful of spit, and his heart was full of slander.

After he came to the Newman Empire, he stayed in the satellite fortress all day to train, and never went out at all. As far as the eye can see, in addition to mecha weapons, it is a battleship fortress. If this can still produce some kind of bullshit feeling, then it is called strange.

However, His Majesty the Emperor's question could not be answered, Fang Mingwei's heart moved, and he immediately said respectfully: "Your Majesty, since I came to the Empire, although I have only seen the tip of the iceberg of the Empire, I have been deeply shocked by the strength of the Empire. ”

Lin Yitian nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, in that case, are you willing to join the empire and serve me?" ”

"I can't ask for it." Fang Mingwei lowered his head deeply, not showing a single expression.

"Okay." Lin Yitian laughed loudly and said, "I have given you a second-class citizen of the empire, and you are allowed to hold a weapon and join my army to serve me." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Fang Mingwei kowtowed three times according to the instructions of the instructor of the prior etiquette.

Lin Yitian glanced at Stephen and the others casually, and granted them the rights of imperial citizens. It's just that Stephen is a third-class citizen, while the rest are only fifth-class citizens.

After the reward was completed, Lin Yitian asked with a habitual surname: "If you have any other requirements, just bring them." ”

According to the rules, when His Majesty the Emperor asked this sentence, Fang Mingwei and the others should hurriedly thank him, saying that the emperor's grace was vast and he was already satisfied. Then the people withdrew, and the summons were finished.

Stephen and the others did this, but Fang Mingwei had other plans, he said respectfully: "Your Majesty, we still have one matter, please be gracious to Your Majesty." ”

Lin Yitian was slightly stunned, for so many years, it was the first time that someone had made a request in such a situation, for a while, not only did he not have any anger in his heart, but he was very amused, and couldn't help laughing: "What's the matter, you just say it." ”

All the ministers were shocked in their hearts, and their evaluation of Fang Mingwei became more and more overestimated, it seems that His Majesty the Emperor really loves this courtier.

Fang Mingwei thanked Lin Yitian for his grace first, and said, "Your Majesty, before I set off, I heard General Lin say that as long as we can drive as many warships and mechas, then these equipment will belong to us. ”

"Yes, this is a tradition of the Empire." Lin Yitian smiled: "Is Qing dissatisfied? ”

"Exactly." Fang Mingwei slapped the snake with the stick and said, "Your Majesty, although General Lin said it well, in fact, he was too stingy. ”

"Stingy?"

There was a slight exclamation in the field, and Fang Mingwei was the first to dare to say that the Newman Empire was stingy.

Lin Debiao's face turned red in an instant, he stepped forward, a powerful momentum burst out from his body, and asked, "Where do you say I'm stingy?" ”

Looking at him, it seemed that he wanted to kill Fang Mingwei directly under his palm, but because of His Majesty the Emperor, he didn't dare to be impulsive after all.

"General Lin." Fang Mingwei raised his head and looked at him without flinching: "You said that no matter what equipment we need, as long as the empire has it, you can get it, right?" ”

"Not bad."

"Okay, now that you've admitted it, isn't that stingy?"

Lin Debiao was stunned for a moment, he quickly circled his words in his head a few times, but he didn't find anything related to stinginess. couldn't help but be furious, and said, "Fang Mingwei, what do you want to say?" ”

"I mean......" Fang Mingwei cleared his throat, and under the gaze of everyone, he said unhurriedly: "I mean, the equipment you have prepared for us is too little, it is really too little. ”

"Impossible." Lin Debiao quickly calmed down and said, "Everyone has taken the equipment, but we still have thousands of warships and tens of thousands of mecha in our camp, how can it be too few?" ”

Fang Mingwei raised his eyebrows, and a trace of essence also flashed in his eyes, and said: "General Lin, the warships you are talking about are all ordinary goods, if they are really complete, may I ask you old, how many Qingsong-class battleships are there?" ”

"Green Pine?" Lin Debiao opened his mouth slightly, glanced at the huge battleship docked in front of the parade platform, and said slowly: "Your Majesty has always paraded troops, and only ten Qingsong-class battleships will be prepared. It's just that no one can drive these ten battleships at once. ”

"Oh, not once?"

"Nope." Lin Debiao said categorically: "If you have the ability, you might as well drive them all away alone." ”

Fang Mingwei touched his nose and suddenly smiled: "General Lin, it's only ten ships, it seems that it is not enough for me." ”

Lin Debiao was silent, Lin Yitian was silent, all the ministers in the field were silent, only the eyes of Mr. Yan behind the emperor shot a hint of surprise.

The people who are qualified to come here are all the temporary choices in the empire, and they naturally know what the Green Pine-class battleship represents. Moreover, they also knew that this behemoth, while possessing great power, was also one of the most difficult warships that the Empire could build on its own.

Even the most veteran Spiritual Department Level 15 quasi-master with dual-purpose qualifications didn't dare to say that he could take on more than ten Green Pine-class battleships at the same time.

But at this moment, the young man in front of him, who came from a second-level civilized country and only had a twelfth-level spiritual power, actually boasted of such a haikou.

If it was in normal times, it is estimated that no one would believe his words, and when he made a lot of nonsense, someone had already taken him down and punished him for the crime of bullying the king.

However, looking at the huge Qingsong-class battleship docked not far away, as well as his miraculous performance just now, for a moment, everyone had a vague illusion that this person might really be able to create miracles.

"Someone." Lin Yitian said suddenly: "Take him to the No. 1 arsenal, all the warships and mecha in it, he can choose." ”

"Yes."

Naturally, someone stepped forward and respectfully took Fang Mingwei away.

The ministers looked at each other, they naturally knew what place No. 1 was located, which was the largest storage place for mechs and warships in the empire.

There, except for the special decree of His Majesty the Emperor, only a handwritten letter signed by the ministers of the military department can be opened.

I really can't imagine that His Majesty the Emperor's favor for this person is so deep that even the No. 1 arsenal is open for him.

However, thinking about Fang Mingwei's words just now, everyone was suddenly relieved. If Fang Mingwei really had the strength to control more than ten Qingsong-class warships at the same time, then let alone open the No. 1 arsenal, even if all the arsenals were open to him, it would be a matter of course.

Lin Yitian waved his hand and said, "It's not too early, let's eat with me." ”

Suddenly, countless attendants stepped forward and served Lin Yitian on the parade platform, and held a banquet in the rear.

Although everyone ate delicacies from the mountains and seas, they felt tasteless, and their minds were focused on Fang Mingwei, who had already left.

They were all waiting, wanting to see if Fang Mingwei was an arrogant person who spoke his mouth or a figure with extraordinary strength.

However, after they finished their meal and returned to the parade platform for half a day, there was still no news. For a while, the whispers below gradually increased.

Lin Yitian hesitated for a moment and handed down the order to see what the hell Fang Mingwei was doing.

The No. 1 arsenal is not far from the parade platform, and this time is enough for any warship to make more than three trips, but there has been no news so far, which is naturally incomprehensible.
