Chapter 333: Fish and Meat Knife

"It seems that we have been forgotten by some people."

"That's not a bad thing." Yang Yi glanced at Shen Chengwen, who was full of complaints, and said, "Let's all go and rest, don't run around if you're fine." ”

Complaining is complaining, Shen Cheng heard that he knew the severity and beckoned his officers and soldiers to leave.

Yang Yi shook his head with a wry smile, glanced at Jackson, and asked him to take his officers and soldiers to rest.

Before, Yang Yi's guess was not wrong, the hidden spirit man who was waiting for them on the dock was a low-level official, who was only in charge of the pick-up and drop-off work at the spaceport. For this reason, Yang Yi changed his decision, and did not let Lin Feng come forward, but let Yujiao come forward and contact the other party as a businessman.

Of course, Yang Yi knows that the significance of doing so is not very great.

Although the official didn't recognize Yang Yi and them, it was obviously not a coincidence that a human Federation spaceship arrived at this time.

Yang Yi and they were not noticed, not because they were not recognized, but for other reasons.

Thinking of this, Yang Yi looked at Lin Feng and Yujiao. He could send Shen Chengwen and Jackson and the others away, but he was not qualified to order Lin Feng to leave, and he couldn't let Yujiao listen to him. In addition, Yang Yi also had to discuss with them, so he couldn't go to the Hidden Spirit Star with both eyes.

"Like you said, that's not necessarily a bad thing."

As soon as Lin Feng said this, Yang Yi nodded slightly and asked her to continue.

"Our arrival is not a secret, the Heavenly Saint Emperor must know about it, and not only did he not send a member of the royal family to greet us, but he also only sent an ordinary official, obviously in a low-key manner. It was clear that the Heavenly Saint Emperor had already thought that it was no accident that we escaped from the attack, and it was no coincidence that we came to the Hidden Spirit Star. The attitude he showed at this time was obviously to make us forget what had happened before. ”

Yang Yi nodded again. He looked at Yujiao.

"I'm afraid not necessarily." Yujiao glanced at Lin Feng and said, "Even if we don't deal with it in a low-key manner, can we still hold a grudge against the Heavenly Saint Emperor?" In other words, even if we remember what happened before, what can we do? Don't forget. We are here to ask for help. Not to mention that Brother Yang is the special envoy of the Human Federation, even if he is not, he can only swallow his anger, and he will not destroy the relationship between the Human Federation and the Hidden Spirit Clan because of the previous incident, let alone delve into this. Clearly, we have no other choice, or even any other way out. Whether or not we can win the support and assistance of the Hidden Spirit Race will determine the fate of the Human Federation, and the fate of all of us. ”

"You ......"

Lin Feng was a little angry. Because whether it's right or wrong, Yujiao always works against her, and the purpose of doing so is only to show her existence.

Yang Yi pressed his head, stopped Lin Feng's words, and let Yujiao continue.

"I feel that the Heavenly Saint Emperor is testing us."

"Temptation? Do you think there's anything else to try? ”

"Of course there is, and it's necessary."

Lin Feng gritted his teeth. With Yang Yi present, she is not easy to get angry. After all, Yujiao is just a sixteen-year-old child.

"The invading army of the Silicon Alliance has broken through the Greenwich Line and is about to besiege the home system, regardless of whether the Galactic Alliance Council has passed a war resolution, war has broken out, and no one can change it. Obviously, including the Hidden Spirits. None of the civilizations of the Galactic Alliance will be immune to this war, and it is a matter of time before they enter the war. As long as the Heavenly Saint Emperor was not too stupid, he would be able to think that the collapse of the Human Federation would not only not bring any benefit to the Hidden Spirit Clan, but would make the Hidden Spirit Race extremely passive in the subsequent war. Other words. Even if we don't come to the Hidden Spirit Star, the Hidden Spirit Clan will send troops to fight, and at least provide all the necessary assistance to prevent the Human Federation from being defeated. ”

"What do you mean......"

"Of course, there's a big difference between going directly to war and providing aid, and what kind of aid is provided."

Yang Yi was slightly stunned, and his brows locked together.

"For our Human Federation, these attitudes of the Hidden Spirit Race are also of great importance."

"Make your words clear, don't play dumb riddles." Lin Feng said impatiently.

Yu Jiao smiled faintly and said, "Obviously, in the eyes of many people, the Hidden Spirit Clan's direct participation in the war is the best result. The question is, have you ever wondered what are the prerequisites for the Hidden Spirit Clan to directly send troops to the war? Don't tell me that the Hidden Spirits won't ask for anything. ”

Yang Yi nodded thoughtfully, and Lin Feng also frowned.

"Actually, it's not like this hasn't happened before."

"Before?"

Yu Jiao smiled faintly and said, "Obviously, you don't know much about the last Greenwich War. ”

Yang Yi and Lin Feng were both stunned, and Lin Feng didn't interrupt Yujiao's words again.

"Although in the Fifth Greenwich War, the Hidden Spirits provided us with great help, and it can even be said that it was the support and assistance provided by the Hidden Spirits that allowed the Human Federation to defend its home galaxy, but the Hidden Spirits not only did not unconditionally support the Human Federation, but also put forward a lot of harsh requirements." Yu Jiao paused slightly, and then said, "The most important and crucial thing in this is that the Hidden Spirit Clan has taken over the intelligence system of the Human Federation. Before the outbreak of the Fifth Greenwich War, the Human Federation had its own intelligence network, which could not be compared to that of the Hidden Spirits, but it was not too bad, at least it allowed us to keep track of every move of the Silicon Alliance. ”

"But ......"

"But, no one ever mentions it, does it?" Yujiao glanced at Lin Feng, who was full of surprise, and said with a smile, "This is a secret agreement signed between the federal authorities and the Hidden Spirit Clan, and it is after the Beacon Star Offensive and Defensive War. Prior to this, the Hidden Spirit Clan had made the same request, but Xiao Wentian refused. As far as I know, it was after Xiao Wentian, that is, before the Galactic Alliance launched a strategic counterattack, that the federal authorities were forced to accept the demands of the Hidden Spirits. It was from this time that the Hidden Spirits fully supported the Human Federation. For example, four legendary fighters were provided for the Third Theater of Operations. Because this matter involves the sovereignty of the Human Federation, and it is related to Generalissimo Xiao Wentian, it has never been made public, let alone widely publicized. To put it simply, the Hidden Spirits used this method to eradicate the intelligence network of the Human Federation. Although the legions of the Human Federation are still strong, they do not have their own intelligence network, which is equivalent to losing most of their military autonomy. ”

Lin Feng's brows twitched a few times, and he did not refute Yujiao's statement.

"According to what you mean, the Heavenly Saint Emperor will put forward conditions for sending troops?"

"There is no doubt about it." Yujiao turned her gaze to Yang Yi and said, "It's just that it may not be to send troops, maybe it's just to provide assistance in other aspects." Of course, there will also be conditions, and by no means gratuitous assistance. In fact, for us, the direct dispatch of troops by the Hidden Spirit Clan may not be the best outcome. ”

Yang Yi rubbed his forehead and thought carefully.

"If the Hidden Spirits directly send troops to the war, it means that we will have to pay a great price, and this time it is obviously not just the intelligence network that will be lost, but something more important. Although the Hidden Spirit Clan does not send troops, but only provides assistance in other aspects, it is difficult to quickly change the situation of the battle, and the human army will inevitably suffer greater losses on the battlefield, but this also means that we do not need to carry a heavy burden. ”

"The premise is that we can rely on the assistance of the Hidden Spirit Clan to withstand the attack of the Silicon Phantom Alliance."

Yu Jiao smiled faintly and said to Lin Feng who asked the question: "Before, I said that the defeat of the Human Federation will not only not bring any benefits to the Hidden Spirit Clan, but will also make the Hidden Spirit Clan suffer greater losses in the subsequent war, so the Heavenly Saint Emperor will definitely not let this happen." ”

"Are you sure?"

"I'm just analyzing the actual situation, not predicting the future......"

"So, you can't be sure."

"So, what can you be sure of?"

"You ......"

"Enough!" Yang Yi pressed his hand, stopped the quarrel between the two women, and said, "Yujiao is right, the Heavenly Saint Emperor is indeed testing us. ”

Yujiao glanced at Lin Feng, but Lin Feng didn't take it seriously at all.

"Perhaps, the Heavenly Saint Emperor is worried about sending troops at this time, or only providing assistance. For him, the first thing to figure out is the attitude of the Human Federation. Yang Yi let out a long sigh and said, "Even if we can contact the federal authorities directly, many things will have to be explained clearly in person, so the Heavenly Saint Emperor must first find out our position." As Yujiao said, the Heavenly Saint Emperor is using this method to test us. ”

"The question is, is this necessary?"

Yang Yi was slightly stunned and looked at Lin Feng.

"Now, I am the fish and the meat, and he is the sword, and we have no right to decide at all, and we are not even qualified to bargain."

"Obviously, it's not that bad."

"You ......"

"You're right, the decision is indeed in the hands of the Heavenly Saint Emperor, but we haven't even gotten to the point where we don't even have the qualifications to bargain." Yu Jiao smiled faintly and said, "Don't forget, in the Alliance Star, you have had contact with the Star Weaver Clan, and Brother Yang has also had a relationship with the Star Soul Empress. ”

Lin Feng was slightly stunned and closed his mouth.

"Obviously, the Heavenly Saint Emperor has received the news and knows that we have a second option, although not so reliable, but it is much better than nothing. What's more, if we had no choice but to join forces with the Weavers, the Hidden Spirits would lose more than just an ally. It can be said that as long as such a thing happens, the position of the Hidden Spirit Race in the Galactic Alliance will plummet. ”

"You mean, the Heavenly Saint Emperor wants to woo us?"

Yu Jiao nodded and said, "Of course, it's not just to woo us, but to maintain the relationship with the Human Federation, but I don't want to pay too much price for this, so I have to test us first to see how much money we need to spend to stop us from defecting to the Weaver Clan." ”

Lin Feng sighed secretly and looked at Yang Yi.

"It doesn't make much sense to say that now." Yang Yi smiled faintly and said, "Whether it's a blessing or a curse, I'll know soon." Anyway, we've come here, and all we have to do now is to calm down, and we must not be impatient, let alone do wrong things because of anxiety. Perhaps, the Heavenly Saint Emperor is waiting for us to make a mistake. Of course, we have to be prepared, especially mentally prepared. This trip to the Hidden Spirit Star will definitely not be easy. (To be continued......)
