"The support for the new federation stems from the preservation and support of the two civilizational ideals of freedom and democracy, and we have seen in this imperial military operation the determination of the empire to destroy the new federal government.

"We can't help but wonder if the new federation falls, will it be me or us next.

"We have not reached any agreement with the new federation and the United States of Freedom, and this aid is purely based on morality and justice, and is also to protect the interests and security of our own people......

Moral?

Yang Wei looked at the Prime Minister of the Güell Union in the picture, the kind old lady, who gave a speech half a day ago.

He always felt that this lady was telling a joke about the galaxy that never existed.

What was the real reason for their troops?

Yang Wei stood in front of the big screen with his hands behind his back, constantly thinking.

"Commander Hanton!"

There were anxious shouts from the rear.

When the commander shouted, Yang Wei's whole person was in good spirits. - After all, the generals of the military department all call him Mr. Ghost and Mr. Hanton, indicating that he is only the nominal commander.

"Another meeting?"

"No, it's not," the mid-ranking officer calmed his breath and said busily, "Her Royal Highness Devonne is about to arrive in the rear army, and she has brought a letter of commendation from Her Majesty to you personally. ”

Yang Wei was stunned.

A letter of commendation?

After losing the battle, losing the occupied territory, and dying so many people, the emperor wants to give him a letter of commendation?

Is this to make him an enemy of the military?

Not right either.

Yang Wei asked, "Is there a mistake?" Did we win? That's a letter of commendation for me? ”

"Well, why don't you ask Her Highness Daphne in person."

"Well, I'll go over and report this matter to Lieutenant General Thomas, but don't make a public announcement."

"Yes, Commander!"

Yang Wei pursed his lips slightly, didn't say anything, and rushed straight towards the tail cabin of the command ship.

……

Devany did bring a letter of commendation from His Majesty the Emperor, but Yang Wei took a few glances and judged that it was not written by the Emperor himself, but only added the Emperor's 'high-level watermark'.

Nothing else, the old emperor is afraid that he does not have this culture.

Devany looked at the detailed battle report brought by Yang Wei and sighed softly: "There are so many soldiers killed and wounded in one war. ”

There was a sadness on her delicate face that did not look like a fake.

"Are you performing?" Yang Wei asked.

"I also have a basic personal feeling and a sense of belonging," Daphne retorted unceremoniously, "but you are so calm in the face of so many soldiers' deaths." ”

"This is war."

Yang Wei put his hands in his pockets and asked calmly: "I accepted the letter of commendation, don't publicize this matter to the public." ”

"Well, it's not a good time to preach," said Daphne, "and I've brought you what you've always wanted most." ”

Yang Wei turned his head and looked over: "Cell mass? ”

Daphne seemed to like Yang Wei's expression, looked at him carefully for a few seconds, and then nodded slightly: "It's on my ship, and I can send it to you later." ”

Yang Wei smiled: "Why are you so generous this time?" Is there a fraud? ”

"This is what your uncle and grandfather promised to you, this time you help the empire carry the public opinion of the war, and your uncle and grandfather should always express it."

Devine took a sip of the hot drink, held the teacup in her thin palms, and said softly:

"Hanton, do you want to get it now?"

"Don't worry," Yang Wei said indifferently, "After I get it, I also have to find a way to see how to absorb it, they mean to let me engage in gene fusion and improve my gene purity, which may also require some instruments." ”

"Really?"

Yang Wei smiled: "I don't know, maybe if I come into contact with this mass of cells, I can directly absorb the strange energy inside." ”

"Then I'll have someone bring it to you."

"Why didn't you just bring it here?"

"The main thing is that I was hesitating just now, whether I should give it to you directly," Devany lowered her head and sent out a message, "I was still thinking about whether I would like to get a little benefit from you." ”

Yang Wei walked up to her and sat down, leaned back on the soft sofa, and exhaled softly:

"The Empire Lost ......"

"Yes, I was shocked when I heard the news," said Daphne, "and the three great powers are attacking at the same time, and we are afraid that we will have a hard time in the future." ”

Yang Wei asked: "Do you know the inside story?" ”

"I've heard a few, and before I came, my uncle and grandfather had an emergency meeting, and I was listening."

Devany moaned softly, with a bit of memory and thought in her eyes.

"They suspect that this is the interference of high-dimensional civilizations, and they also say that it may be for the cyclical balance of the millennium, a kind of regulation of the strength of the camp."

Yang Wei raised his eyebrows.

Devany asked, "Do you know what that means?" Can you tell me? As an exchange of information with each other. ”

"Of course, you can also get this information from your uncle and grandfather."

Yang Wei said:

"A trial of a low-level civilization called the Fayat Game, where low-level civilizations are scattered in the space-time bubble in all corners of the galaxy.

"Trials are conducted in a five-in-three format, and each low-level civilization is connected to a game called Abyss, which is set in a moment in the galaxy to digitize.

"Of course, this digitization is just a general term, and they will simplify a lot of things and then extend them backwards autonomously.

"I come from one of these civilizations, known as the Precursors, whose mission is to pick up their home planet...... Well, that's my biggest secret, you're now the third person in the Empire to know. ”

Devany stared at Yang Wei: "You're not from the Empire?" ”

"I'm from the Imperial, it's complicated," Yang Wei pointed to his brain, "Consciousness fusion. ”

"This is really shocking information," Daphne subconsciously checked the surrounding shielding devices, and found that the devices were working properly, and then breathed a sigh of relief, "You can't let anyone else know about this, or your public opinion will be destroyed." ”

Yang Wei smiled: "Don't worry, Faya's game is secret, and no one dares to offend the high-dimensional civilization." Since it's an exchange of information, it's time for you to give me some valuable information. ”

"Well, allow me to think about it."

Daphne leaned back on the couch and closed her eyes.

Yang Wei turned his head to look at the side of her face, her crystal smooth skin, and her long eyelashes that trembled slightly, like a red apple.

"As a partner, I don't have much to tell you because I still have very little access to core intelligence."

Devany said:

"What are you more interested in? Forget it, I'll share all these messages with you.

"The most shocking news to me was that my uncle and grandfather had actually confirmed with the higher echelons of the United Free States and the Güell Alliance that they had received orders from the Fayacs.

"The content of the order is much the same, which is to defeat the Empire's expeditionary legion head-on, weaken the Empire's strength at all costs, and balance the military influence of the four major factions in the galaxy.

"They also mentioned that the order was signed by the "Faya's Game" project team.

Yang Wei raised his eyebrows, and then smiled dumbly.

He really doesn't understand the Faya civilization.

What is the main purpose of Faya's game? Isn't it to populate the galaxy? Or is it the so-called 'possibility' that Brother Faya has been emphasizing?

This made Yang Wei a little confused.

Devany said softly, "Other than that, the Imperial Guard system seems to be broken. ”

"Broken?"

"Yes, there have been many instances of inresponsiveness," Devany said, "and they're supposed to be rebuilding a new Imperial Guard system, an upgraded version of the Imperial Guard system?" ”

Yang Wei's expression was a little playful.

Devany keenly captures this: "What's wrong? ”

"It's nothing," Yang Wei smiled calmly, "Upgrade is upgrade, it has nothing to do with us." ”

"Well, on the contrary, I think they rely too much on the Imperial Guard system."

"There's no way around it, Devany," Yang Wei leaned towards her, "You have to remember one thing, the empire's territory is too big, and if you want to rule such a large territory and span such a large spatial dimension, you must rely on some unconventional means. ”

"Well, that's what I feel."

Daphne smiled, turned her head to look at Yang Wei, and then the two of them staggered their gaze.

"Is that all there is to it?" Yang Wei asked.

"Everything else is a trivial matter, and although the top management of the Foreign Affairs Bureau has been purged, the Foreign Affairs Bureau cannot stop operating, especially at a time like this, when a new elder has taken over the Foreign Affairs Bureau."

Daphne paused, then sighed softly:

"With this defeat, we will probably have to rest for more than three months.

"Now that the three great powers have joined forces, we will be in a very difficult situation, and if we continue the war, we will inevitably pay a heavy price, and the results we can achieve will be very limited.

"But if we retreat now, the overall deterrent power of the empire will be greatly reduced, and the alliance of the three great powers will be dissolved, but if they do not dissolve, the empire will fall into complete passivity."

Yang Wei said: "This is a reciprocal war, the empire has fought too many asymmetric wars. ”

"But what we need is a clean war that can keep flowing resources and people against the Empire, not a quagmire that constantly consumes our resources and population," Daphne said, clasping her arms, "Three months may be nothing, but with a long time, such as half a year, we will have internal problems." ”

Yang Wei nodded slowly.

He asked, "What do you think?" ”

"In the face of such a big event, personal political pursuits must be pressed backwards," said Daphne, "I hope you will have this kind of awareness, Hanton, if you want the Empire to protect your home planet, you must first make sure that it does not decline." ”

Yang Wei looked at Devonie: "Director Eno wants me to kill the high-level of the three great powers?" ”

Devany laughed: "It's worthy of you, what you always think about in your mind is to solve everything by personal force, that's useless, it's only the person who holds power, not the power itself, and the structure of power will not have an impact, and soon someone will come up and continue to follow the will of the dead politician." It's like our Foreign Affairs Bureau, and it is said that the first thing the new uncle and grandfather did was to consult all the files of the deceased person in charge and continue to move forward with the dozens of projects that had been underway. ”

Yang Wei's fingers trembled slightly.

Devany sighed, "The Foreign Affairs Bureau may have to levy a large military budget on the subject countries next. ”

"Aren't you afraid of a revolt from your subjects?"

"Most of the vassal states are controlled by the empire from political economy to military culture, and only a small number of the stronger vassal states may have their own thoughts," Devany said, "I don't know much about these either, and the Foreign Affairs Bureau is usually the area where Lorna and my sister are active. ”

Yang Wei nodded slightly, bringing the topic back to the current war.

The two chatted without saying a word, occasionally exchanging some unimportant information.

About half an hour later.

Yang Wei suddenly throbbed.

He stood up in his seat and looked out the door with a frown.

He heard a strange heartbeat, felt some unspeakable longing, and seemed to want to tear through the alloy wall and rush through.

Ancient God Cell Cluster!

Yes, that's it.

Only it can make Yang Wei feel so impulsive.

Devany watched closely, silently.

There was a knock on the door, and Yang Wei rushed forward with a brisk step, pulled open the thick explosion-proof door, and glared at the maid outside.

The maid was obviously taken aback, and subconsciously handed the silver-white box in her hand forward, and Yang Wei grabbed the box and hugged it tightly in her arms.

He knew that it was a bit exaggerated and immature, but the desire in his heart made him unable to help himself.

'Got it, get out of here. ’

This thought came to Yang Wei's heart.

But reason is still there, reason is not lost, he began to consciously adjust his breathing, let himself adapt to the existence of this mass of cells, and the figure of the swaying constantly appeared in the bottom of his heart.

There can be no rush, absolutely no rush.

He has to be calm now, this could be a trap, and if he runs away now, everything he has done before will be in vain.

What if his strength is doubled?

Yang Wei's mind shone with the light of the dreadnought's main gun.

He was gasping for breath.

After about three or five minutes, Yang Wei held the box in his hand and gently stroked the edge of the box, as if caressing his lover's skin.

"It's wonderful, that's how it feels."

Devany laughed, "You're a bit out of shape. ”

"What's wrong with the gaffe?"

Yang Wei pursed his lips slightly, walked back to the inside of the shield, and the maid hurriedly closed the explosion-proof door.

Yang Wei hugged the box, turned his head to look at Daphne, and whispered, "Your uncle and grandfather let you observe me, right?" ”

There was a faint look on Daphne's expression.

Yang Wei smiled: "He gave me this thing so happily, in fact, just to see if I have the ability to use it, right?" ”

"Yes."

"I've gradually figured out your style," Yang Wei laughed, opened the box, and saw the familiar hourglass inside.

Antimatter bombs.

This thing seems to be the standard configuration of the Ancient God Cell Cluster.

Yang Wei exhaled, closed the box, and slowly placed it next to Daphne's lap.

"I need a genetic dissociation device," Yang said, "I ask Director Ino to help me make a device, which is the device that Professor Kigrove once made, and put it on my Saka star, and when the war is over, I will go to Saka star for surgery." ”

"Okay."

Daphne laughed, "You're really good at making conditions." ”

"I deserve it," Yang said with a smile, "It's good to work with the Sherman family." ”

Daphne asked, "And when are you going to do our business?" ”

"Do you have a need?"

Devine was stunned for a moment, then looked to the side: "I can do it all." ”

"Then you can wait," Yang Wei rubbed his eyes, "Catherly and I haven't broken up yet." ”

"Captain Catherine is a good woman," said Daphne suddenly, "let me negotiate with her." ”

"Stay away from her," Yang Wei stared at Daphne, "You seem to be more interested in Catherine than in me." ”

"Really?" Daphne laughed, "We're going to be husband and wife, darling. ”

Yang Wei pouted slightly: "I'm still going to sell myself, let's go, the military department is holding a meeting intensively, this is a good opportunity for me to brush my face with the generals." ”

Devine got up to see her off, and when Yang Wei opened the door, she still held her hands and bowed slightly to Yang Wei.

"Good luck with your work."

Yang Wei: ......

Fortunately, he didn't say 'Yang Sang', otherwise he would really have to dance.

One thing to say, is the family status of the men of the empire so high? Don't you need to hand in your salary card after marriage?

……

On the way back to the flagship, Yang Wei took the opportunity to take the ferry transport ship and sent a few text messages to Lu in one go.

The Foreign Affairs Bureau is still moving forward with the previous plan;

The arrogant Sherman family is experimenting with the Imperial Guard System 2.0;

The Empire will levy high military spending on its subjects.

Ritsu also sent several pieces of information, all of which were about the Foreign Affairs Bureau.

Although the Foreign Affairs Bureau's plan to strangle the wind has been delayed for a while, now, this plan seems to be still running, and the wind environment is a little relaxed, and it is starting to be tense again.

It's endless.

Moreover, the law also made some not-so-good predictions.

Now that the Empire is at a disadvantage on the frontal battlefield, it will not only give Falling Wind a chance, but also create a new challenge to Falling Wind.

The Falling Wind Alliance has been expanded outward for the second time, opening up a direct route with the United Kingdom of Nonal, and now, the Falling Wind Alliance has nine political systems, with the Falling Wind as the absolute center inside, and the external government is watching and helping each other, and the next step is how to divide the United Kingdom of Nonal, and the military escalation of the member countries of the Falling Wind Alliance.

Time, these take time.

According to the calculations of the law, even if you rely on mechanical civilization, it will take two or three years to complete the set goal.

Luofeng must survive two or three years under the strangulation of the empire.

[Rhythm, be prepared with both hands, once the wind goes wrong, the dark star enters the undeveloped area and operates independently. 】

[Yes.] 】

Yang Wei exhaled softly.

In some dimly lit cabins, his expression was slightly uncertain.

[Boss, the latest news, the Foreign Affairs Bureau is about to convene the emperors and kings of all vassal countries to hold a fundraising ceremony in the Imperial Star Circle to raise military funds for the empire. 】

Yang Wei subconsciously frowned.

[Law, don't let Edwan pass, don't forget Edwin's father's lessons. Let him take sick leave or something, pay the money, everything cooperates. 】

[Yes.] 】
