From the mouth of Major General Garcia, Ouyang Yu and they obtained the basic situation of the Hod Empire, which is a huge interstellar empire under the rule of many ecological planets, developed science and technology, population and resources, with hundreds of thousands of large and small space warships of various types, and an army with a scale of hundreds of millions, and the home continent and the earth combined are not comparable to a single hair of people.

The previous victory was actually quite lucky, if it weren't for the fact that the vast majority of the heavy weapons of the opponent were not deployed, it would definitely cost a lot to win.

"General Garcia, you just said that reinforcements will arrive in the near future, can you introduce the size and arrival time of the reinforcements?"

"I'm sorry, this is a secret of our army, and I have nothing to say. Major General Garcia looked stiff with his hands on his chest.

"General Garcia, it seems that I am going to use some special means against you before you speak. Ouyang Yu pretended to be regretful and shook his head and said, "Tia, come in!"

The big demon Tia walked into the room wearing a Russian women's military uniform, Ouyang Yu pointed at Major General Garcia and said, "Tia, this gentleman does not cooperate with our interrogation, so please let him speak." ”

"Yes, master, promise to get the job done. Tia gave Ouyang Yu a military salute in a matter-of-fact manner, then turned her head to stare at Major General Garcia and slowly walked to his side.

Major General Garcia looked at Tia with some apprehension, thinking that she was a master of torture, and he didn't think that he would persist under torture.

Tia smiled and walked behind Major General Garcia, her hands gently hugged his neck, and the girl's faint body fragrance poured into Major General Garcia's nose, and he couldn't help but take two more sips. Tia leaned her face close to Major General Garcia's left ear and whispered, "General, can you answer my master's question obediently? ”

Tia's voice was like a whisper between lovers. The demon's voice is all magical, accompanied by seemingly intimate body movements. Major General Garcia was quickly taken into account by Tia for his own thoughts and turned into his slave.

"Master, it's okay, from now on he will tell the truth whatever you ask him. Tia proudly asked Ouyang Yu for credit.

"Well done Tia, I'll reward you in the evening. Ouyang Yu asked Tia to step back first and then repeated the question just now, and this time Major General Garcia answered truthfully.

"The reinforcements that are coming are the Empire's elite Seventh Fleet, which will arrive in about a month, with twenty-two two-thousand-meter battleships and twelve large carriers of 1,200 meters. There are 20 1,000-meter heavy cruisers, 40 600-meter light cruisers, 120 300-meter destroyers, 80 130-meter frigates, 20 250-meter assault landing ships, more than 4,800 Pioneer fighters, and 1 million marines. ”

"Shhhh......h

Major General Garcia's words caused a gasp in the room, and if he was telling the truth, then the ensuing battle was absolutely desperate, which made everyone's confidence to continue to resist quickly disappear.

"Then how many more fleets like this are there in the Hod Empire?" Ouyang Yu asked again.

"The empire has a total of twelve elite fleets, all of which are under the direct command of His Majesty King Hodder. There are two hundred and thirty-four ordinary fleets in general, although there are many of them, but they are only half of the elite fleets in terms of size and quality, and they are stationed in various territories of the empire, and the worst equipped is the planetary garrison fleet. There were one thousand and twenty-seven, and the size and quality of the warships were high and low, but the highest was only one-third of the ordinary fleet, and the morale and training were not high. It mainly performs patrol and anti-smuggling duties. ”

Major General Garcia finished speaking calmly, but the hearts of Ouyang Yu and the others were not calm. Ouyang Yu roughly calculated according to his statement, the total number of warships owned by the Hod Empire was as high as one million.

"You go out first. Ouyang Yu waved his hand without much energy and let Major General Garcia leave the room.

"Huh...... We're really frogs at the bottom of the well. I was confident that I could defeat the alien invaders, but I didn't expect our enemy to be so powerful. Ouyang Yu's heart was full of pessimism, a month later, when the seventh elite fleet of the Hod Empire arrived, it would be the moment of defeat.

Antti and the officers of the Combine Army also hung their heads in frustration, although they didn't want to believe it, Major General Garcia, who was accused by Tia, would never lie.

"What should we do now?" asked a sudden officer of the Combine.

"Convene a joint meeting and prepare for the ...... Let's move on to the final solution. Ouyang Yu said disheartenedly holding his forehead.

The so-called final solution is to temporarily transfer the people and property and industrial equipment of Kadesh and Carlos to Earth when they are about to be defeated, and then find a new planet in the universe where the Earth is located as a new home for the people of the two countries, during which more than 10 million people from both countries will be placed in the vast and sparsely populated Great Siberian Plain of Russia, and only Siberia can accommodate so many people.

The joint meeting was held on Earth two days later, at the meeting, Ouyang Yu showed the interrogation video of Major General Garcia and the confessions of other captured people, all the evidence showed that the enemy was currently invincible on the two planets, so the final solution was very smooth, the five hooligans will provide paid materials for the refugees on the homeland continent, and the period of temporary residence is also time, and after fifty years, they must all be withdrawn, otherwise it means declaring war on the whole earth, and the refugees can only operate in a limited area during the temporary stay, and the vicinity of the activity area is jointly supervised by the armies of the five countries, Ouyang Yu and Antti signed their names on the settlement treaty on behalf of the Kadesh Empire and the Carlos Empire, respectively.

Because the time was only one month, and it was a huge project to transfer all the personnel and industrial equipment, militarily Kadesh and Carlos continued to pretend to know nothing and aggressively approached the advance base of the expeditionary force, and a large number of propaganda teams in the rear went deep into every place in the two countries to call on the people to obey the arrangement, Ouyang Yu and Antti had a high prestige among the vast grassroots masses in the two countries. In addition, Ouyang Yu and Antti promised to subsidize, and nearly ninety percent of the people consciously dragged their families and followed the staff to migrate in an orderly manner. The rest are those who are under the illusion that the alien invaders will not do anything to themselves, and that they also need someone to cultivate the land to pay their taxes. Whoever pays taxes is not the same, and the diehards who refuse to leave live or die, Ouyang Yu doesn't care about their lives or deaths for these people.

But the most troublesome thing is always those nobles, the nobles live on the land, they have never had an economic source after leaving the land on which they live, the nobles of the Kadesh Empire are okay, they have made a lot of money over the years by relying on industrial dividends, and they don't have to worry about having no money to use when they go to another world, but the nobles of the Carlos Empire cannot. They didn't share much of the fruits of Anti's industrialization at all, and the main output was still dependent on the land, and now asking them to abandon the land seemed to these people to be no different from killing them, and most of the nobles also had luck in their hearts, they thought that no matter who ruled the land, there would always be a need for the nobles to help rule, and it had been like this for thousands of years on the mainland, countless empires and kingdoms had risen and fallen, and the victors generally did not slaughter the noble class. Instead, he tried his best to secure the place, so he refused to leave and prevented the staff of the Carlos Empire from mobilizing the civilians in the territory to leave.

These nobles are the basis of the ruling of the Carlos Empire, and they are also the heroes who raised Lawrence to the throne of God. scolded and couldn't scold, which made Antti and Lawrence very sad, and time waited for no one for Antti to learn from Ouyang Yu and no longer care about their life or death. It's your business to find your own death, and the ruthless Antti and Lawrence sent an army to forcibly take away half of the population under the nobles' territory. Antti and Lawrence's hard-line attitude made some of the more intelligent nobles understand that the invaders who came across the sea of stars were likely to be as advertised. Whether you are a nobleman or a commoner, you are a good slave in their eyes, so these more intelligent nobles secretly take care of their property, mingle with the ranks of the commoners and quietly leave.

"Huh, you said that the Hod Empire sent an envoy?" Ouyang Yu asked as he looked at Toris in surprise.

"Yes, master, the envoy came by flying machine and landed in the square outside the palace, and then took the initiative to identify herself and is now waiting outside the palace, do you need to see her?"

"Bring it in and hear what they have to say. ”

"Yes. ”

Soon, Adora's adjutant Yashaki Julius and Toris walked into Ouyang Yu's office together.

"Smack!" Yashaji saluted Ouyang Yu with a touch of heels and said, "The commander of the Marines of the Hodder Imperial Expeditionary Force, and the adjutant of Her Royal Highness Princess Admira Hodder, Yashaji Julius, salute the honorable Prime Minister!" The tone was neither humble nor arrogant, neither showing the contempt of the huge imperial soldiers for the local aborigines, nor excessively lowering their status.

Ouyang Yu got up and returned a PAL military salute: "Please take a seat, Doris serves tea." ”

"Thank you, Your Excellency. Yashaji sat opposite Ouyang Yu generously without any restraint.

"Is there anything wrong with your envoy coming to see me this time?" Ouyang Yu didn't like nonsense and asked straight to the point.

Taking the teacup from Doris's hand and saying thank you, Asaki put the teacup on the table and replied, "I have come to convey a word to you on the orders of Princess Adora. ”

"What?"

"Princess Adora would like to meet you and your sister, Her Royal Highness Princess Anti. ”

"See me and Antti?" This was completely out of Ouyang Yu's expectations, and he thought that Yasha Ji was here to persuade him to surrender, but he didn't expect that it was the princess of her family who wanted to meet him, but could he see him? Ouyang Yu quickly made a decision.

"When?where?"

"Three days later, our troops advanced to the base. ”

"Okay, I'll be there on time. ”

Yashaji couldn't imagine that the prime minister in front of her would agree so happily, isn't she afraid of entering the base and being detained? With that, he stood up and saluted again, then left the office after Doris.

"Do you want to kidnap that Princess Adora at that time?" Ouyang Yu leaned back in his chair and thought with his head in his hands, "Maybe it's a good idea, but all bad ideas look like a good idea before execution, it depends." ”

Three days later, the Hodder Imperial Expeditionary Force advanced base. Adora led the generals in the base to look at the Griffon slowly landing on the tarmac, in fact, let Asagi say that meeting at the forward base was just a negotiation technique. I just casually said that the original intention was to meet at the junction of the two armies, but I didn't expect that both of them agreed to meet in the base. Therefore, Adora admired Ouyang Yu and Antti in her heart for daring to come to the enemy's base camp alone, but she would never be able to do it.

"Welcome to my forward base, I'm Adora Hodder, which of you is Prime Minister Catherine, and which one is Princess Antti?" asked Adora, looking at the two men who looked and were identical in appearance and body to the Griffin walking together.

Antti pointed at Ouyang Yu and said, "I'm Antti, it's Catherine with my eyes closed, one of us has closed eyes, and the other has open eyes that are easy to distinguish." ”

"It's rude, please come with me. Military music sounded, and two teams of salute soldiers lined up on either side. Adora, Ouyang Yu and Antti got into a hovercar and drove towards the castle as the headquarters, in the car Adora looked at the two curiously, and the two also looked at the princess curiously, with long golden hair and white skin, neither pure-blooded Hod, nor mixed-race Hod, but they had the title and rights and treatment of the princess, which made the two people who had already understood the basic situation of the Hod Empire feel strange.

Adora seemed to know the doubts in the hearts of the two and took the initiative to explain: "I am the adopted daughter of my father Hodak. Father, he is the younger brother of King Holder, and my father conquered the planet where I was born sixteen years ago and destroyed my country. I was picked up in the ruins of the royal castle as a baby, and for more than ten years I was raised as my own daughter and treated me very well, and he also said good things for me in front of King Hod. I was recognized by the Hodder royal family and personally bestowed the title of Princess Ciri. ”

"Hmm...... Don't you hate your adoptive father? He's the one who took over your planet, anyway. Destroy your country, and maybe your parents will ...... too. Antti asked curiously.

Adora smiled slightly: "I don't hate him. This world is the law of the jungle, the weak is the original sin, it is a matter of course for the weak to be ruled by the strong, occupying the planet where I was born and destroying my country is the embodiment of this phenomenon, as for my biological parents, they are now living very well, because of my relationship they are now rebuilding their country on their own planet, vassal under the rule of the empire, and the people's living standards have also been greatly improved, although they do not have as many rights as pure-blooded Holders and mixed-race Holders, but the life is much better than other non-blue-skinned peoples, so I am grateful to my father for what he did for me, and work hard to learn all kinds of knowledge in the hope of helping him and help the empire become stronger and stronger. ”

Adora's remarks shocked Ouyang Yu and Antti, but when they thought that she had been raised by her adoptive father since she was a child, she would definitely be greatly affected in her thoughts, words and deeds, and her biological parents and people were also loved by Hodaq because of her, and her fundamental interests and human rights could be protected, so it was not surprising that there was such a special case for her.

"Is Her Highness Catherine's eyes invisible because she is sick or injured? After all, Adora is still a sixteen-year-old girl, and her nature is not bad, so she offered to help Ouyang Yu treat her eyes.

"Hehe, thank you for your concern, my eyes are normal, and the reason why my eyes are closed is because I am practicing some kind of exercise. Ouyang Yu's eyes had no problem and didn't need the so-called treatment, so he simply refused.

After Adora's sigh, both sides had no interest in talking, the car fell silent for a while, the speed of the hovering car was very fast, and it came to the castle after ten minutes, Ouyang Yu immediately found out that this was the main city of the castle clan after getting out of the car, since the death of Roland and Queen Catherine, it can be said that it has been abolished, and I didn't expect it to be used as a command headquarters by Adora.

Ouyang Yu, Antti, and Adora sat down in the castle's reception room, and Cullen, dressed in maid costumes, walked in with a few other maids and served them tea and snacks.

"Karen's Majesty!" Γ—2, Ouyang Yu and Antti exclaimed at the same time.

Castren didn't respond to the two of them expressionlessly, but saluted Adora and left the room with the maids.

"Your Royal Highness Princess Adora, don't you think it's immoral to treat a monarch like this?" Antti couldn't stand it, she and Karen had a good relationship, and loudly fought for Karen.

Adora looked her in the eye and said lightly: "Karen is just a former monarch, her United Kingdom of Higra has been destroyed, so she is nothing now, and when I found her, she was imprisoned, I rescued her, she was grateful to volunteer to be my maid to serve me, I didn't force her." ”

"You ....... Antti wanted to say something but was stopped by Ouyang Yu, "Calm down, we'll talk about Karen's majesty later." Then Ouyang Yu turned his head to Adora and asked, "Your Royal Highness Princess, you and I are now in a hostile relationship, I don't think you invited us here to drink tea and eat snacks, so can you explain your intentions?"

Adora curled the corners of her mouth and looked at Ouyang Yu with an approving gaze and said, "Actually, inviting the two of you to come over is indeed not to drink tea and eat snacks." She paused before saying, "Surrender to me, become my subordinate and fight for the Empire, and I promise that you will continue to rule the two countries of Kadesh and Carlos, just as my own father once ruled." ”

"Why?" Ouyang Yu wondered why Adora wanted her and Antti to be her subordinates, and what did she fancy about them?

"Because you have the most remarkable and far-sighted vision on this planet, because you are not influenced by the ignorant culture of this planet, you have found a different path and achieved success, you are the most powerful and influential people on this planet, you are qualified to be my subordinates, and enjoy the same rights as the pure-blood Hodders of the Empire. ”

"But as far as we know, the ethnic policy of the Hodder Empire is the harshest and most cruel, and non-blue-skinned nations like us are at the bottom of the social ladder in the Hodder Empire, and belong to the oppressed and enslaved objects, Your Highness, you are just a special case, and you cannot guarantee that every non-blue-skinned nation can enjoy the same rights as pure-blooded Hodders. ”

"I just said that you are different, compared with other people of non-blue-skinned peoples, you are strong and excellent people, such people should join the empire, not stand on the opposite side of the empire, His Majesty King Hodder has actually intended to reform the national policy over the years and improve the treatment of non-blue peoples, and I am the model of reform, otherwise even if my father is the younger brother of His Majesty, His Majesty will not canonize me as a princess, His Majesty hopes that more non-blue-skinned national powerhouses will join the ruling class of the empire and contribute to the strength of the empire。 ”

Ouyang Yu applauded Adora's words lightly, "Your Highness's words sound very good, but what if we don't agree to fight the Hod Empire to the end?"

Adora looked regretful, " If that's the case, then I can only be disappointed to say that there is a problem with my vision of people, because people who can't see the reality clearly don't need to live, I admit that you two are very strong, but no matter how powerful people are, they can't fight our space battleships, although there are other planetary forces behind you to help you, but all the enemies who stand in front of my Hod Empire will eventually be destroyed, I have always believed in this, not to mention that the people who help you are also very weak, and the people who stand behind you after conquering your planet are the next target of the empire, and if you dare to oppose the empire, you must pay the price。 ”

"We will never submit to anyone, nor will we be anyone's slaves, you don't know how powerful we are, we'll see you on the battlefield later. Antti stood up with that.

Ouyang Yu also stood up and said: "I also mean the same thing, you are indeed very strong, but we are not weak, you have not seen our strength, and when you see it, I hope you will not regret it, goodbye, Your Highness." After speaking, Ouyang Yu and Antti left the castle without looking back. (To be continued......)
