So from the afternoon of the same day, one phone call after another went out from the Military Investigation Committee in the Capital Star, layer by layer from the Intelligence Bureau to the headquarters of the Military Investigation Committee, to the president's office, and then to the office of the Joint Conference of the Ministry of Defense, and finally to the office of Marshal Williams, commander-in-chief of the Third and Fourth Combined Fleets in Ophiuchus.

In the evening, Williams, who had just had dinner, was sitting on the sofa in his office with his eyes closed, when the sudden ringing of the phone made his brow furrow.

The call came from the secretary general of the Office of the Joint Conference of Defence. A few minutes later, Williams patiently listened to the Secretary-General's account of the whole incident.

After putting down the phone, Williams remembered President Johnson's advice to secretly assist the Intelligence Service, so he immediately dialed Rear Admiral Douglas, commander of the Fourth Fleet.

Douglas quickly understood what the old marshal was about to explain, and when he put down the phone, he was very annoyed.

These guys from the Military Investigation Committee are really not things, and they didn't say that they wouldn't help them, but in just one afternoon, they made such a big detour to sue Lao Tzu!

But annoyance is annoyance, now that the marshal has come to greet him in person, it is even more impossible for him to push this matter outside.

In desperation, Douglas reluctantly called Bai Jie and asked her to attend the military joint meeting of the United Fleet tomorrow.

Some people are troubled and some people are happy.

After answering the phone, Bai Jie was in a good mood and had a good night's sleep!

Early the next morning, Bai Jie rarely changed into a lieutenant colonel military uniform of the Saitan Federation. She exuded the charm of a mature woman all over her body, and walked into the conference room of the United Fleet command in a heroic manner.

Just behind her ass, followed by a lewd fat man with a hippie smiley face.

Of course, if it weren't for the military commission's work card hanging on the white uniform, Tom would not have been able to walk into this huge luxurious conference room as a special adviser to the intelligence agency.

At first, the fat man was also a thousand and ten thousand unwilling to come.

He thought to himself that he used to be a mecha warrior of the Glorian guerrillas, fighting the puppet government's army all day long, killing the sky in the dark and flesh flying. Now that he has become an intelligence officer of the guerrillas, all he thinks about all he is thinking about how to dig into the corners of the puppet government and seek benefits for the guerrillas. Isn't it to suddenly ask him to sit in a room with a whole bunch of high-ranking officers of the puppet government now?

But under the white and obscene power, where is Tom still able to find an excuse to slip away. When Bai Jie talked to the fat man about this matter this morning, he used a notice tone, and there was no room for negotiation at all!

At this time, there were already many people sitting in the conference room, and the two major generals on the shoulders were the two major generals, sitting in the left and right positions at the front of the extended conference table, and then the senior officers with the rank of colonel and colonel were sitting down in turn, and a lieutenant colonel Bai Jie sat in the corner at the back of the conference table.

Of course, there was no Tom's seat, so he had to stand crookedly behind Bai Jie.

Not long after Bai Jie sat down, the adjutant at the door shouted: "The marshal has arrived!" Rise! ”

"Wow!" With a bang, the officers and men in the conference room collectively stood up from their chairs and clamped their buttocks and straightened up!

After seeing Williams walk into the conference room, more than a dozen senior officers raised their hands at the same time to salute the marshal!

After Williams sat down, he raised his hands and pressed them down, and said in a deep voice: "Sit down!" ”

After all the officers sat down, Williams glanced around the room before asking, "How is the situation of Basel lately?" ”

A colonel officer immediately got up from his seat and said loudly: "Report to the marshal!" By the time Basel's ground forces retreated to Ophiuchus, the small force we had left behind had been reduced to pieces, and we were doing our best to destroy the expanding military interstellar space port of the Vilia Empire's Blood Wolf Legion in order to delay their attack on Alpha. ”

"Well, that's good!" Williams waved his hand and motioned for the officer to sit down, then continued, "But what I want to ask now is about the ordinary people who remain on Basel. ”

At this time, another colonel officer hurriedly stood up and reported: "Report to the marshal!" There are a total of thirteen small and medium-sized interstellar cities on the planet Basel, and in addition to the more than 6 million citizens who died innocently in the bloody July 14 tragedy in the capital city of Doha, there are currently more than 50 million permanent residents on the planet. Now the Blood Wolf Legion has implemented military closure and unified control on the planet Basel, and the rations of ordinary people are rationed according to the head. However, according to the reliable information we have received, the daily ration quota for ordinary people is now very small! ”

"That means our people are starving!" Williams slammed his fist on the conference table in anger, spilling some of the tea in his cup.

"Your Excellency, should we immediately launch a general assault on the planet of Barcelium and save our people from fire and water?" Major General Douglas next to him seemed to hear what Williams meant, so he asked deliberately flatteringly.

Before Williams could speak, a strange voice suddenly came from the back of the extended conference table, "I don't need you to fight!" It won't be long before the Blood Wolf Legion will take the initiative to fight you, so let's take care of yourself first! ”

A group of officers turned their heads to look over, and found that it was a fat man standing behind a female lieutenant colonel.

What's even more strange is that this fat man didn't actually wear a military uniform, how did he get in?

Bai Jie hurriedly made a look in his eyes and reminded Tom to shut up immediately! In a meeting of this level, where can he casually interject and give opinions?

Major General Douglas's face was a little unbearable, and he shouted, "Who are you?" ”

Bai Jie hurriedly stood up, saluted Douglas, and explained, "I'm sorry, Your Excellency General!" He is a special adviser to the Intelligence Directorate of our Military Investigation Commission, and I ask your pardon for his recklessness and rudeness. ”

Douglas snorted coldly, turned his head away, and didn't look at Bai Jie again.

Unexpectedly, the old marshal Williams next to him said with a smile: "The meeting, just to ask everyone to put forward more opinions together, this is nothing." ”

Then he looked at Tom and continued, "Tell me, what do you think?" ”

Tom saw a room full of puppet government officers staring at him with contempt, and he suddenly felt a great sense of unhappiness in his heart.

Look at the hammer and look!

A person who looks like a dog, don't think that only you know how to fight!

The fat man pursed his lips, coughed his throat again, and said loudly, "Why did the Blood Wolf Legion reduce the ration quota for the people on the planet Basel?" In fact, it's very simple, because they didn't have much comprehensive supplies this time! As we all know, Basel used to be a mineral planet, with basically no agricultural production capacity, and the daily necessities before the occupation were mainly dependent on the constant input of other planets in the Federation. But now that the Blood Wolf Legion has completely sealed off Basel, it is impossible for the Federation's transport ships to enter the atmosphere and reach the ground, so the food and clothing of ordinary people have been seriously threatened. And the Blood Wolf Legion is preparing to attack the Alpha Star, and they will never be able to use their own military rations to relieve the people of our Federation! So, I believe that it won't be long before there will be riots everywhere on Basel because of famine! People who are hungry can do anything! At that time, the Blood Wolf Legion will definitely divide its forces to suppress the riots in various places first. ”

Speaking of this, Tom, who felt that his mouth was starting to dry a little, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and saw that Williams was nodding slightly, and the contemptuous expressions on the faces of the other puppet government officers were slowly fading, of course, it was impossible for anyone to stand up and interrupt him at this time.

So the fat man couldn't help but feel a little proud, and he continued: "If riots start to break out everywhere on Basel, and there are two Federation aircraft carrier fleets in space. In this case, how dare the Blood Wolf Legion attack Alpha Star so easily? Therefore, they will definitely divide their forces to quell the chaos while dividing their forces to contain the Federation's fleet, and when the balance of power on all sides is reached, they will send excess troops to attack Alpha Star. ”

Speaking of this, Tom deliberately paused and glanced at the large and small officers at the conference table before slowly continuing: "So I think it won't be long before the Blood Wolf Legion will take the initiative to attack the Federation fleet. Of course, not for the decisive battle, their purpose is to contain! Only by completely blocking the Federation's two aircraft carrier fleets in Ophiuchus can they have no worries and free up their hands to attack Alpha Star! ”

"Shhh A bunch of federal officers in the conference room gasped, where the hell did this fat man come from? The current situation of Basel Star has been analyzed so thoroughly!
