XY-1986 Star Field on standby on the Alliance One express ship.

Ticking interrupted conversation in the office, alerting them to a comm coming in, and Lady Ahmeda, dressed in a crisp white robe, apologized slightly to her guest, a middle-aged man in his forties, and after the Confederacy leader stood up and walked over to her desk, she glanced at the communication device, which was from her adjutant, Lieutenant Wyndé.

"What's the matter? Wyndi! She connected to the communication.

"Madam," the head of Lieutenant appeared on the screen: "Sorry to bother you, you told you to notify you when the fleet arrived, and now they have arrived." ”

"Thank you, Lieutenant, I'll be right there." She nodded and asked, "How's the new subspace communication system being renovated?" ”

"It's going well, and so far, Mrs. Lippmann estimates that the communication test will be available in three hours at the latest, except for other problems, of course."

"Hurry up, keep me informed of any progress or problems, and our friends may not be able to wait for so long."

"Yes, ma'am."

She turned, and an expression of joy, pride, and relief was evident on her face: "It seems that the renovation is going well, and in a few hours there will be a few hours before the communications test can be conducted, but before the test, Mr. Landley, may I have the honour of inviting you to a brief welcoming ceremony for the triumph of a fleet?" ”

"It's an honor." The man politely stood up and smiled. "I already knew before I went out that the emperor ** was carrying out the largest clean-up operation against your army, I am very concerned and sympathetic to the difficult situation faced by your army, but unfortunately I have not received any news during the whole voyage, since you said it was triumphant, then I would guess that your army must have broken the emperor's purge operation."

Mrs. Elmeida chuckled twice at such a compliment. "How can it be so fast? However, it is true that our army has achieved a major victory. Four invading Imperial fleets. There has already been an Imperial fleet that has been completely wiped out in this battle, but even after the elimination of four enemy space carriers, the Emperor still retains absolute superiority over our army, and the forced abandonment of the Siberian galaxy, the new alliance headquarters has still not been established, and the situation we are facing is still very serious. ”

"However, we are confident that the Alliance has been able to wipe out an Imperial fleet. Then you can wipe out another rice, and you have to eat it bite by bite, do you say? She glanced at the middle-aged man, her purpose was to convey her firmness and confidence, to convey the strength and tenacity of the Resistance Alliance, and to invite him to visit the Alliance's fleet.

"Yes, ma'am, I have to say. In the absence of our assistance. It is truly admirable that your army has achieved such results, and I have seen and heard it today. It's all out of our imagination, and I can't believe it, and I'm sure they'll be surprised when they hear my report. ”

"But even though we have achieved such a victory, the cost is not small, and your assistance and support are indispensable."

"I know what Madame meant, and I also know that the general policy is to do everything we can to help you, but at the moment, we are really powerless, without a smooth aid channel, all the aid materials, personnel, equipment, and even ships cannot be delivered, and I can not bring much when I come alone this time, so the place in place is the newly developed subspace communication system, and it is a top priority to restore communication and intelligence exchanges between you and us."

They talked softly as they walked along the passage inside the ship

On the upper deck of the Confederate One, there were already countless Confederate crew members in full costume standing neatly in front of the various portholes, their hands behind their backs, their chests straight, their eyes facing ahead, the same scene appeared not only on the Confederate One, but also on every Confederate ship participating in the ceremony. The frigates were also non-combat transports, and they were arranged in two parallel rows on the left and right, leaving a sufficiently wide passage between the two columns of ships for the triumphant returning warriors to be reviewed.

The participating ships that had won a hearty victory had already been reorganized in the distance, forming a long snake formation, and at the front, the flagship of the Third Fleet, the Liberator space carrier, was the first, followed by the fourth, fifth, seventh, The Ninth Fleet's several lightning starfighters accompanied each ship in the fleet like a moon of stars, stretching out in a long column around each ship in the fleet, and the end of the column could not be seen at a glance, demonstrating the power of the Alliance for the first time in the eyes of many, and this was the first time to see the unprecedented concentrated display of the Alliance's military power, leaving them with surprise, shock, ecstasy, pride, and growing confidence.

Under the watchful gaze, the first ship to be reviewed, the Liberator space carrier, slowly entered the review channel, and at the sound of an order, all the crew raised their right hands in salute, and the civilian personnel touched their left chests to express their highest respect to the ships participating in the battle.

One by one

The marks and wounds that provoked them could still be faintly seen on the many ships that passed before people's eyes, and they did not have time to repair or repaint them at all, but this did not affect people's perception of them, but increased their authenticity and reflected the hard-won victory.

Risson's black lightning fighter and Sonia's pink lightning entered the review channel simultaneously with the Archangel space carrier, his eyes were good, and when he passed the Alliance One clipper, he saw a row of people standing in front of the porthole of the bridge at a glance, and the right hand in the middle caressed his left chest. He could feel the obvious white figure, his blazing eyes moving slowly with his lightning fighter, he could feel her smile, her pride, her relief, he knew who it was, he carefully controlled the fighter with his right hand, and his temporarily free left hand was raised vigorously to the front of the flying helmet to salute the honored lady.

Rysson didn't notice the person standing next to Lady Elmeda, after all, he was still a little farther away, even Lady Elmeda's face didn't see him clearly, he only recognized Lady Elmeida from the white robe and the concerned eyes, he just glanced at it, anyway, he couldn't feel that there was much difference between that person and the others, at least he didn't feel that he was paying attention to him.

The middle-aged man really didn't pay much attention to him, he was just slightly surprised by the black and pink lightning that were different from the other fighters, and then turned his attention to another big target.

What he really focused on was the space carrier in the middle of those lightning bolts, she was different from the two Alliance space carriers that he had passed by earlier, those two Alliance space carriers were Raider-class, and this space carrier was undoubtedly the Imperial class.

"This ship is numbered SC-3, and the space carrier is the Archangel." The middle-aged man asked slowly.

He asked this as an extra move, and the names of the white SC-3 and the Archangel were clearly visible on the side of the space carrier, which was much more than Ryson's Lightning fighter, and the reason why he asked was just to confirm it.

"Yes, Mr. Landley, is there anything wrong?" Mrs. Elmeida felt a little strange, didn't this show very clearly?

"Nothing, just curiosity, it's not like the other space carriers in the Alliance, ma'am, can you tell me the name of the captain of this space carrier?" There was a hint of anticipation in his voice.

"Of course, this is not a special secret, Lieutenant Commander Yao Feilun, the captain of the Archangel space carrier, and also the fleet commander of the Fifth Independent Mobile Fleet, speaking of which, she turned out to be a former soldier of your federal army."

"Sure enough, it's great that she is still safe and sound, Senator Yao and General Hamilton can finally rest assured now." The middle-aged man said happily.

"It seems that your mission is more than just contacting us and bringing new subspace communication technology, Mr. Randley."

"Where the official mission is like this, but before it came out, the general and Mr. Senator asked me to keep an eye on this space carrier, you know, we have lost contact with you for a long time, and the senator is very concerned about the safety of his daughter, which is also the normal feeling of a father."

"As long as the new subspace communication system works successfully, then Senator Yao will soon be able to meet with his daughter, it has only been a few years, Senator Yao probably didn't expect that her daughter has not only become the captain of a space carrier, but also promoted to the commander of the fleet, and led this fleet to a series of brilliant victories, I really hope to see the expression on the senator's face soon." She said jokingly.

"I really didn't expect it, I'm sure the senator must have been surprised," the middle-aged man replied honestly. Originally, we just estimated that Miss Yao might have served on this Archangel, and judged that she might be the captain of this mothership, you know, it is basically impossible to be the captain of a space carrier at such a young age in the Federation, and it is already very special to be the captain of a cruiser at this age in the Federation with her qualifications, not to mention the commander of the fleet, to put it mildly, I think that a big reason for her to be the captain of the cruiser is that her identity and the Blue Angels are all composed of women. ”

"We are not like your alliance is short of people, we can only be promoted exceptionally, as long as we have this ability, we don't care too much about age, seniority and gender, and she still has many people helping her, her former Blue Angels colleagues in the Federation Army, they are all on this ship, and we have also sent the best pilots to serve as the air captain of this fleet, and the facts have proven that she is fully competent, if she remains in the Federation, it is a waste of her ability, it seems that I really want to thank you for helping us cultivate such a good fleet commander."

The middle-aged man really didn't know what to say, he couldn't tell whether Mrs. Almeda's last words were genuinely grateful, or with a hint of mockery.
