Tang Qiao has been doing very well recently.

Kentwis's death had made a mountain above his head disappear, and although there were two other mountains pressing down on him, he was now convinced that one of them would be able to overturn the other, which he once thought was impossible.

Because the mountain he is really following now is the mountain with the highest personal force in the Federation.

No, it's not just personal force.

Every time he thought of Kentwis's normal and extremely strange violent death, Tang Qiao felt that the mountain had become even more mysterious, like the top of the mountain that could have been looked up to, but it had risen into the clouds at this time.

The clouds can be white or black.

When it is white, it is gentle with harsh sunlight, and when it is dark, thunderstorms are generated in it.

"General Tang Qiao."

Hearing this title, Tang Qiao was still a little unaccustomed to it, especially since the person who called him like this was Han Lishi.

"Colonel Han Li."

The title of the response made Tang Qiao feel ashamed in his heart, Han Li was just a colonel, how could he be promoted to the rank of general?

But a lot of the time that's it.

"I wonder, why didn't the command pass the combat plan of our separate regiment?"

After Ji Xinghe left the alien planet and Han Li took over the independent group, some things naturally changed. For example, the combat plan of the independent regiment can no longer be formulated and implemented by the will of the regiment commander, and it needs to be reviewed and authorized by the Western Theater Command of the Battle Scar Canyon, which is temporarily subordinate to the independent regiment.

And Tang Qiao is now the ground commander in the Western Theater of Operations.

The previous commander, Davis, who was also promoted to major general, has now gone to the Battle Scar Canyon Command on the South Tianmen space station.

There is news that Davis may become the next Kenteves, certainly not as suddenly as Kenteves, but with a bright future.

Some of his policy decisions in the Western Theater have proved his personal ability, and he has also won a large number of military merits in commanding the operations in the Western Theater, and it is very normal for him to be promoted.

The only thing that is abnormal is Tang Qiao, he was promoted before Kenteves's death, and his biggest credit to Kenteves's greatest credit is to successfully make Ji Xinghe's independent regiment become Kenteves's independent regiment.

It's a pity that the predecessors planted trees and the later people enjoyed the shade.

If Kentweiss had a chance to do it all over again, he wouldn't have promoted Tang Qiao because of this.

"Because it's too risky."

Tang Qiao is capable, when he has been a staff officer for many years, when faced with Han Li's problem, he reasoned and said some reasons, making Han Li irrefutable.

Han Li is not Ji Xinghe, and he can't guarantee that he can create miracles.

"But if we don't pass our battle plan, then we won't be able to attack the Empire's jump base in the Canyon of Warscars."

Half a year after Ji Xinghe left the alien star, and half a year after Little Ivan's explosion, the Federation still failed to capture the Empire's jump base in the Warscar Canyon.

It was just that the forces of the empire were blocked within a section of sixty kilometers.

However, due to the reduction of the defensive area, the Empire's forces have become more concentrated, and the simultaneous attack from the east and west of the Scar Canyon has not been able to make progress for some time.

To this end, Han Li proposed a Ji Xinghe-style combat plan.

"If your plan can guarantee that we will capture the Empire's jump base, then I will agree. But, can you guarantee it? ”

Tang Qiao asked angrily, and when Han Li was speechless, his tone softened again.

"Colonel Han Li, I really don't want to see any more sacrifices in your independent regiment. Yes, I can replenish you with mecha warriors, but if you continue to fight like this, how many more people can I replenish you, and how many resources will I have to maintain your mountain slashers? ”

Upon hearing this, Han Li frowned.

"If you don't want to build a third or fourth independent regiment, resources won't be so scarce."

There are two existing independent regiments in the Federation, the Starship Mecha Independent Corps and the Bald Eagle Mecha Independent Corps.

Because the head of the Bald Eagle is Kadilin, and the deputy commander is Jackson, it is difficult for Han Li to say anything.

However, Han Li had a great opinion about the third and fourth independent regiments that were being formed, which made them lack maintenance resources for the mountain slashers.

"That's not something I can decide, and it's not something you should care about."

Tang Qiao said with some bitterness: "Colonel Han Li, please abide by the battle plan formulated by the headquarters, we still have a lot of time, take your time, in your Long Zhou's words, it is to slowly figure it out." ”

Han Li glanced at Tang Qiao, then at the rest of the command, and turned to leave.

A staff officer next to him asked worriedly: "General, Colonel Han Li is General Ji's apprentice, is it possible that he will follow the example of General Ji and lead the independent regiment to directly implement the battle plan they formulated?" ”

Tang Qiao shook his head: "No, the current independent regiment is no longer the previous independent regiment, even if General Ji comes back, it will be difficult for the independent regiment to follow him unconditionally." ”

After half a year of fighting, the veterans of the original independent regiment, including the original Xinghe squad, plus Han Li, a latecomer, were only seventy-six people, and the other two hundred and ninety-five people were all mecha warriors selected by Tang Qiao, most of whom were from Yingzhou.

There are only three hundred and one mecha independent regiment, judging from the composition of the personnel, it is indeed not something that Han Li can say.

But if it's Ji Xinghe......

There were many people in the headquarters, all of whom had taken Ji Xinghe's classes before, and they looked at Tang Qiao's eyes a little weirdly at this time.

Among them, there is a lot of resentment and even malice.

Tang Qiao felt those eyes, and he knew what the people around him thought of him, but he didn't care.

He had to behave like this in order to gain the trust of another mountain that weighed down on him.

The battle continued, and Tang Qiao, who had been in the headquarters for seventeen hours, got into a sleeping bag at the headquarters and rested.

When the rest of the command saw him like this, some of the resentment and disgust that had just arisen because of the independent regiment dissipated a lot at this time.

As a general and the supreme commander of the ground command, there must have been some privileges, but Tang Qiao didn't ask for those privileges, such as a separate room......

Tang Qiao, who got into the sleeping bag, did not rest, but opened an encrypted communication channel, and did not receive any news he was expecting, so he closed his eyes in some disappointment.

…………

In the virtual world, the roundtable organized by the top of the tower was once again held.

With the sea of stars in the background, nine of the twelve cards around the huge round table lit up.

When the numbers on card number one flashed, a voice sounded in this small virtual world.

"Let's get started."

The numbers on card number three flashed, and another voice rang out.

"My research base has been breached, which of you did it, now speak out, and hand over that embryo and Dr. Essen, and I'll act as if nothing happened."

The other cards lit up.

"Your research base? What a research base. ”

"Are you crazy, why are we attacking your base and stealing your research results?"

"What is an embryo and what are you working on?"

"I didn't find any information about what you asked me to check for you, and although I suspect that one of us did it, I don't think even one of us could have done it so cleanly."

"Can you tell me what happened?"

From their conversations, it can be seen that the nine apostles are not monolithic, and their relationship is not strong.

Card number one lit up.

"Three, let's be clear first."

Apostle No. 3 regrets that he can't see the expressions of the others now, so it's unclear if these people are lying. But even if he could see it, he couldn't guarantee that he could tell it.

"I have a research base, and the research project is to use the genes of Ji Xinghe to clone and create the most powerful clone soldier. And now, just as I have made a breakthrough in my research project, my research base has been breached by a group of people, and now, I will send you some of the information I have. ”

The transmission of information was very fast, and some of the other eight apostles knew about it before, and some did only know about it.

"Clone Ji Xinghe and create the strongest clone soldier? Hahaha, although I admit that Ji Xinghe is very strong, I don't think this project makes any sense. If we want the strongest soldiers, we might as well be the orangutans of the Clone Empire. ”

"Interesting, really interesting, Ji Xinghe's strength is beyond doubt, if his clone has half his strength, he can be called the strongest soldier. Because this kind of clone soldier can be manufactured in batches. ”

"What I don't understand is why such a simple thing as cloning Ji Xinghe would be described as having a breakthrough. If you want to clone Ji Xinghe, get me the genes of Ji Xinghe, and my research base can help you clone it. ”

The apostles spoke out, and from what they said, Apostle No. 3 was still unable to make any worthy judgments.

So, he said the killer idea.

"The cloning breakthrough I am talking about is not simply cloning Ji Xinghe, but using Ji Xinghe's genes to fuse the genes of the imperial prince. My research base has succeeded in creating an embryo, and the project leader, Dr. Essen, says that as long as the embryo can grow, it is born with the power of qi. ”

All the apostles fell silent, and after a moment they all exclaimed, and the round table seemed to have turned into a vegetable market, showing their shock.

"Quiet."

Apostle No. 1 spoke up and asked, "So, the embryo you mentioned, as well as Dr. Essen, have now been snatched away?" And, you haven't been able to find anything? ”

"Yes, I teamed up with Seven and Nine, and I couldn't find anything."

"Then from now on, let's all look it up together."

After the number one was confirmed, the number three no longer dwelled on this topic.

The meeting continued.

"Regarding the investigation of Tang Qiao, we did not find any problems, so I propose that Tang Qiao take the place of Kentwis, and become the new Apostle Walker."

"I still think Davis is a better fit than Don Joe."

"Davis has a lot of respect for Ji Xinghe, which doesn't meet our requirements. And Tang Qiao has a very poor relationship with Ji Xinghe, and the relationship with the independent group now led by Han Li is also very poor. ”

"We can give it a try, compared to Ji Xinghe, we can help Davis a lot, he will know how to choose."

"It's possible to start reaching out to Davis, but the new Apostle Walker is better off being Don Joe. The unexpected death of Kenteves, which has stalled many of our plans, needs to be accelerated. ”

"I agree."

"Agreed."

With the vote passed, Tang Qiao, the newly promoted major general of the Federation, became the apostle walker used to replace Kenteves.

Although Tang Qiao's military rank was relatively low, when Kentveth became the Apostle Walker of the Tower Summit, his military rank was only a colonel.

Another thing was said, but the meeting was not over.

"Because of Kenteves's death, Li Anbang stepped down half a year late, but he will step down after all, so I hope that you can do your best to push Ivanovic to take over the post of commander-in-chief."

Apostle One said, "We have no one but him, and if you have any ideas, you can speak now." ”

"I agree."

"I agree."

The third topic did not cause any controversy, everyone agreed, and after talking about the three topics, they discussed a few more things, and the meeting ended.

As at a previous meeting, Apostle One did not leave, but remained.

Card 10 lit up again.

"We have already decided to let Ivanovich take over the post of commander-in-chief, you, do you have any opinions?"

"I have an opinion, is it useful?"

"Useful, if you change your mind now, I'll make you the true Ten Apostle and have them all come to support you as the new Commander-in-Chief."

"Forget it then."

Apostle No. 1 was silent for a moment, and then said, "Tang Qiao has become an Apostle Walker, and I will give you his access when I tell him about this." You can use him to control the Independence Regiment. ”

"You're going to tell him who I am?"

"Of course, but you don't have to worry, Tang Qiao is a very smart person, after Kentwis's death, I was always worried that he would do something that he shouldn't do, say something that shouldn't be said, and even think about killing him, but because it involved the Independent Regiment, I didn't do it.

As a result, he didn't do anything, or rather, he did what Kentwiss asked him to do before he died. So, he can be trusted, just as Kentevess trusts him. ”

"What about the other apostles?"

"I will tell Tang Qiao to keep this matter secret for the time being, but you should know that this matter can't be kept secret for too long, even if you don't want to make that choice, you should make some action."

"Okay."

After the tenth apostle agreed, the first apostle said: "After Ivanovich takes over as commander-in-chief, Li Anbang will officially step down, and I hope that you can convince Li Anbang." If you can do it, you will be the next commander-in-chief. ”

"I said it, I can't guarantee it."

"But you have a lot of hope of succeeding, don't you?"

"If nothing else, so be it."

"Yes."

The conversation ended, and the virtual little world dissipated again.

A few hours later, Tang Qiao, who woke up at the Western Theater Command of the Alien Warscar Canyon, as usual, first opened an encrypted communication channel and looked at it.

This time, he was not disappointed, and the news that he had been waiting for for a long time finally came.

But after seeing the content of the message, his expression became shocked, and then it became very complicated.

But he quickly regained control of his emotions and left his sleeping bag and entered the command state again.

For a day, two days, three days, he didn't make any moves.

But sometime on the fourth day, he avoided all the surveillance cameras, avoided everyone, and found an opportunity to send a message using a communication device that Ji Xinghe had left him before.

And this message, carried by Xingyue, soon came to the Azure Star.

Ji Xinghe, who was watching the relevant personnel and implanting Kazeman with a brain-computer interface for an experiment, heard the voice of Xingyue in his ears.

"My lord, Tang Qiao has news that he has become an Apostle Walker, which is the role of Kenteves's previous organization at the top of the tower. He also knew the composition of the organization at the top of the tower, the highest position was the Twelve Apostles, but now there were only nine official Apostles. Below are the Apostles, the exact number of which is unknown.

But judging from the identity of Kentwis, as well as Tang Qiao's waiting time, Tang Qiao believes that the number of apostle walkers will not exceed twenty, and these twenty people, as well as the nine official apostles, are eligible to access the real secrets of the tower top organization, and the most confidential information and permissions and resources are still in the hands of the nine official apostles. ”

Xingyue hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Tang Qiao also said that he received an order from the No. 1 Apostle to obey...... Tu Yuan's instructions. ”
