Chapter 117: Gambling
Eder Planet, the headquarters base of the Fifth War Zone, in the spacious and luxurious commander's office, the short and fat Auston was leaning on a leather sofa, listening to Lin Bin's report with his eyes closed.
"According to the latest clues obtained by the intelligence department, Hao Yi and his wife have returned to the St. Proli Star Zone, but it is said that the star sector is currently suffering from a large-scale invasion by alien alien alien Zergs, and the war situation has reached a very critical moment, and the humans in this star area may be swallowed up by those alien alien alien Zerg at any time!" Lin Bin closed the ultra-thin multi-functional holographic microcomputer in his hand and reported to Auston in a summary manner.
"Finished?" After Lin Bin finished saying one word for half a minute, Auston slowly opened his old eyes and asked slowly.
"Huh? Uh, it's over, father-in-law! Lin Bin seemed to have something in his heart, and he seemed to be distracted for a while, and was a little dazed by Bob's abrupt question, so he had to stammer.
"I used a whole reinforced armored division, and I couldn't even catch a small big soldier?" Auston's fat face, which was originally fair and round, was a little gloomy at the moment. Pulling a cigar from the cigarette box on his desk, he lit it and spat out a long smoke ring, and Auston squinted his old eyes as if he were questioning the ceiling coldly.
"Well, father-in-law, please listen to me! We ......" Seeing that Auston looked very dissatisfied, Lin Bin's forehead suddenly oozed cold sweat, and he was busy opening his mouth to explain.
"Forget it! Run away, run away, anyway, it won't be long before the entire St. Proli Star District loses its original value! Without waiting for Lin Bin to continue to explain, Auston waved his hand and frowned and interrupted in a deep voice: "And these are no longer the focus of my concern!" What I want to know is that the Weishenme Seymour POW camp will suddenly appear with alien creatures of this size, and the defense department responsible for the security of the entire planet has not even reacted in advance? Also, you haven't given me a reasonable explanation for the matter of the forward outpost in the Hack Star Zone! As far as I know, during this period, there have been incidents of sudden attacks by alien creatures of different scales in the Poole Star Region and the other two Star Regions, and there is not a single word in the report you submitted to me! ”
Speaking of this, Auston suddenly snuffed out the cigar in his hand, his short and fat body suddenly pulled up from the soft and comfortable seat, and a pair of small mung bean eyes stared at Lin Bin's fair and handsome face, and his tone was a little cold: "My good son-in-law, I really hope you can give me a very satisfactory explanation!" ”
"Father-in-law, I ......" Facing Auston's cold questioning, Lin Bin didn't know how to explain for a while, and the fine sweat on his forehead was even more dripping.
"Okay, let's go back and sort out our thoughts first, and then report back to me!" Seeing this, Auston snorted coldly, and his round face inadvertently showed a few traces of disappointment, and he raised his hand at Lin Bin a little tiredly and said.
"Yes, father-in-law! Then, the son-in-law retired first? Lin Bin didn't care to wipe the cold sweat that flowed down his cheeks, and said cautiously, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Auston's slight forehead, and hurriedly turned around and hurried out of this luxurious office. And when he had just stepped out of the threshold with his hind feet, Lin Bin seemed to vaguely hear a heavy and faintly disappointed sigh behind him.
"What the hell do you mean by this old guy?" He breathed a long sigh of relief, and the cold sweat on his body made Lin Bin very irritable, and while subconsciously walking outward, he pondered Auston's words that seemed to hide the sound of the strings.
Regarding the appearance of alien creatures attacking humans in the Poole Star Region and the other two Star Regions, because he was trying his best to deal with Haoyi at that time, Lin Bin ordered the local garrison troops near the incident area to "deal with it", and on the other hand, strictly ordered no one to skip the level and report directly to Auston, the head of the war zone, who had not yet been in the division. According to Lin Bin's idea, everything that is not related to him must wait for him to clean up Haoyi, and then slowly sort out a clue, so as to give Auston a satisfactory report.
However, judging from the words that Auston Shicai seemed to inadvertently revealed, it is obvious that there are still some secrets in the Fifth War Zone that are only loyal to Auston and are not controlled by Lin Bin.
Thinking of this, Lin Bin suddenly became a spirit, only to feel that behind him was a gloomy and cold cautious person.
"General!" Just when Lin Bin's thoughts were a little chaotic and irritable, the figure of Hua Wu, the captain of the First Special Operations Brigade directly under the war zone, suddenly appeared in his sight.
"Ah, Colonel Hua! Is there something wrong? Lin Bin, who came to his senses, put on his usual reserved smile and asked lightly.
"General, my subordinates have come to bid you farewell! According to the order of the Supreme Commander, the 1st Special Operations Brigade must be returned to its establishment immediately, and the subordinates can no longer serve you, the general! Hua Wu's face was a little gloomy, he bowed his head apologetically, and said respectfully to Lin Bin: "My subordinates are incompetent and have not completed the tasks assigned by you, general, I am deeply sorry!" ”
"Colonel Hua, you have done a good job!" Seeing that the captain, who originally only obeyed the supreme commander of the war zone, was still respectful to him, Lin Bin's heart suddenly warmed, and he raised his hand and gently patted Hua Wu's shoulder to comfort him. And just when Hua Wu opened his mouth and wanted to continue to say something, Lin Bin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he stepped forward and attached it to Hua Wu's ear and said in a low voice: "Colonel, take a step to speak, I have something very important to discuss with you!" ”
After that, Lin Bin continued to walk ahead without looking back, and Hua Wu, who was a little stunned, frowned and hesitated slightly, then turned around and followed quickly.
A moment later, the two walked into Lin Bin's office as the chief of staff of the theater one after the other. After Hua Wu entered the house, Lin Bin suddenly turned on the office's anti-eavesdropping security mode, blocking all wired or wireless signals in the entire office to communicate with the outside world.
"Colonel Hua, if there is a big gamble in front of you, if you win, the glory and wealth are limitless, and if you lose, you will be ruined and your life will be in danger, then are you willing to let go of the gamble with General Ben?" Hua Wu, who was confused by Lin Bin's mysterious actions, suddenly heard Lin Bin's words full of mystery.
"Gamble, gamble? General, general, I don't understand what you mean? Hua Wu, who vaguely guessed some signs, trembled suddenly, and stammered in response.
"One person is below ten thousand people, are you willing to do it?" Lin Bin's pair of slender triangular eyes flashed with a crystal and abnormal light, and Leng Buding was another sentence that shocked Hua Wu to the point of being stunned.
※※※ "Please rest assured, in the end of my life, Guo Ling, I will do my best to assist Aunt Haoyi, even if I go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire, I will not die!" At the Longtan Base of Tikru Planet in the St. Proli Star Area, after solemnly listening to what Bob explained to him in the communication secret room, Guo Ling solemnly swore to Bob with a solemn face: "If I violate this statement, I, Guo Ling, will be hit by five thunderbolts and will not die well!" ”
"Actually, you don't have to, General Guo!" Bob, who was sitting in a wheelchair, sighed lightly, and motioned Guo Ling with his eyes to put down his raised right hand, and his pale bearded face showed a smile of relief: "I'm old, and it's almost time for the old guys who followed me to fight the world, and the future of St. Prory belongs to you young people after all!" As long as you follow Hao Yi well, the glory and wealth of power will naturally be no problem! ”
"Why did the Prime Minister say that? My subordinates take the liberty of saying that you are in the prime of life, and it is the time for you to show your might, and our St. Prory's Star Region will definitely become strong in your hands! Hearing that Bob had the idea of retiring, Guo Ling couldn't help but be a little surprised, half respectful and half tentative.
"Look, can I still show my majesty as I am?" Hearing Guo Ling's words, Bob smiled helplessly and looked down at his body paralyzed in a wheelchair.
"You, Prime Minister?" Guo Ling's eyes widened in astonishment, as if he had vaguely guessed something, but he looked incredulous.
"That's right! I'm a wreck now! Bob naturally understood the surprise in Guo Ling's eyes, nodded affirmatively and explained: "Although Haoyi's kid used his miraculous antibody blood to save my life. But according to the doctors, because the venom of the insect has invaded deep into the bone marrow of my limbs, destroying my whole body motor nervous system, even if I can pick up an old life, I can only survive to become a vegetative guy! ”
"Your Excellency!" After listening to Bob's explanation, Guo Ling suddenly remembered that Bob had been sitting in a wheelchair talking all along, except for his head moving slightly and some facial expressions, he couldn't even move a finger below the neck. Seeing that this iron-blooded figure who used to be dominant in St. Prorie had become like this, Guo Ling was a little choked up for a while.
"No big deal! I guess it's because the old man has seen me jump for most of my life, and I'm a little too tired, and he wants me to take a good rest! Seeing Guo Ling's sincere concern, Bob's heart warmed and he laughed self-deprecatingly.
"Prime Minister, when this insect plague passes, my subordinates will definitely try to find the most skilled doctor in the whole federation to cure this strange disease for you! I don't believe it, now that medicine is so advanced, it will definitely be able to get you back on your feet! After choking for a moment, Guo Ling suddenly said to Bob Zhengse with an awe-inspiring face.
"Okay child, if you have this heart, I will be content! Don't bother your brain, anyway, my old bones won't live for a few years! What I hope to see most now is that St. Prory can be truly powerful in the hands of Haoyi and you young people, and no longer have to look at the faces of the Federation and other shili as before, and exist in a low voice! This is also the dream of those of us of the older generation of St. Prori, who do everything we want to achieve! Bob smiled and then changed his face again, and said to Guo Ling in a solemn voice: "General Guo, these three things I just told you are related to the entire St. Proli Star District and our Teutonic family, I hope you can keep it a secret!" There is also the secret list handed over to you, which must not be leaked, and you can only use it at critical moments! Do you understand? General Guo! ”
"Your Excellency, please rest assured! I, Guo Ling, swear to the gods that I will use my life to keep these secrets! Guo Ling hurriedly swore an oath.
"Okay, then I won't bother you! I'm sure you'll have enough of a mess for you young people to clean up! Bob nodded in satisfaction, motioning for the secret talk to be over, and letting Guo Ling push himself out of the secret room.
"General, you've finally come out!" As soon as the two of them left the communication room, a colonel's staff officer hurriedly rushed over, panting and shouting to Guo Ling with a miserable face: "Something happened!" ”
