Face Slapping the General

Chapter 61: Unit split

The next day, it was like Wu Qiao thought, with all sorts of reluctance to leave. Before each parting, I was ignorant, and I didn't understand what those feelings of parting meant until after we were together.

Wu Qiao had already said goodbye, but when he reached the door, he couldn't hold back and ran back. He kissed Tan Yan's lips, bridge of nose, eyebrows, eyelashes, cheeks, forehead, everywhere, and kissed again and again.

Tan Yan didn't speak either, he just took it.

After repeating it twice, Wu Qiao finally said, "I really have to go this time." He had previously left a little longer to say goodbye, because he had already guessed it would be like this.

"Ok."

"Then... Come on, take care."

"Yes." Tan Yan looked at Wu Qiao, "You are the same."

Wu Qiao returned to the base.

After arriving at the base, he held another celebration ceremony, because this victory really deserves to be celebrated.

The atmosphere at the base was very relaxed during the celebration. Ling Zhi and Ren Shen had no objection to Wu Qiao, because Wu Qiao did an excellent job.

Wu Qiao's military rank is one level higher. Because of a series of coincidences and Darrell's maverick, Wu Qiao magically rose two consecutive levels and became the youngest major general in the empire, a few years younger than when Tan Yan became a major general.

At the end of the celebration ceremony, Wu Qiao mentioned the spin-off.

He has discussed with Ling Zhi Renshen, and Ling Zhi will continue to guard this base in the future. As for Wu Qiao, he will lead Renshen's army and another army awaiting military appointment.

While waiting for his appointment, Wu Qiao also did several things, only two of which had nothing to do with army building.

The first is that Darrell was buried. Darrell said that he wanted to sleep in this base. Because Darrell insisted on letting Wu Qiao carry the coffin on the expedition and "with his own eyes" see the victory in the battle, when he returned, the body was decayed and the soldiers around could not bear the nausea, so Wu Qiao did it himself.

The second thing is that he brought back Sheng Chongguang's body intact. The message before Akash's death was correct, Sheng Zhongguang was really buried in the place he said. Wu Qiao was very sure that Sheng Zhongguang would not be willing to stay in that cold place. After bringing the body back, he asked someone to send the coffin back to Capital Star and to Sheng Zhongguang's parents.

The waiting time for the order is much longer than expected.

The reason is not complicated. The Empire suffered a terrible defeat during this period, and Sean also experienced the worst defeat in his career.

The Republic completely disregarded military conventions and did not do any rest and reorganization after a **** battle, but directly tried to invade the empire's homeland. In order to win a forward base and cut off an empire's supply line, the Republic really laid its blood. This round of offensive is really stormy, and it is advancing rapidly with unprecedented strength and determination.

In this battle, the only thing worth celebrating is that one of the "four kings" of the Republic is finally killed. In the past, he and three other air fighters created countless problems for the empire. This time he was cut from the air by Sean himself, and fell into a watermelon field on the border of the empire. A farmer who was rushed to hear the news. They pulled him out of the rescue cabin, and then the farmers smashed him to death with watermelon nearby.

This is the only gain.

Otherwise, it's all bad news.

The second largest planet of the empire is very close, and the Republic is clearly moving towards it.

The second planet is in a hurry. This planet, second only to the capital star in size, is the economic center of the empire. At the same time, it has a long history and a strong cultural atmosphere.

However, Wu Qiao knew that the current imperial army really didn't have the confidence to hold on, or in other words, after a big defeat, even if it sent reinforcements, it might still be unable to win.

In this case, the imperial emperor personally gave instructions. The content of "Shengjuan" is to resolve the crisis through diplomatic means, get a respite, recharge your energy, and launch a major counterattack after you are properly prepared.

The emperor considered that since it might not be victorious, then don't risk fighting an unsure battle. He chose the latter conservatively in the two roads of "blood fight to the end" and "wronged and seeking completeness".

He did not dare to imagine the fall of the second planet. The wings of the dragon had just been defeated, and the people of the empire rejoiced. If the main star field is lost at this time, they will definitely lose their support, and the whole country is pessimistic.

After thinking about it, the emperor decided to send the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs Kevin to carry out his orders.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs has been in this post for more than 100 years, and he has delayed the war for several years by himself, and is regarded by the empires as the hero behind the scenes.

This time, he was in danger and was ordered to negotiate.

For a while, the foreign minister became the focus of domestic attention.

Before he could talk, he was scolded.

In the empire, there was a lot of shouting for war, and they all wanted to turn defeat into a shameful victory, and many young people had applied for enlistment. The emperor did not dare to say that he wanted to make peace and was unwilling to bear the infamy of cowardice. Therefore, all the external media reported: The Minister of Foreign Affairs strongly advocated talks between the two sides and promised that he would resolve the crisis. The emperor's approach is equivalent to replacing the person who made this idea with the minister of foreign affairs.

Therefore, those who are fighting in the country hate the Minister of Foreign Affairs very much, thinking that he is a timid and fearful person. After the Minister of Foreign Affairs set off, some people threw rotten eggs at his yard.

Others scolded the emperor who had let the minister of foreign affairs go. The emperor was afraid of being scolded, and asked the media to report that "the Minister of Foreign Affairs promised that he would retreat the enemy without a single **** and a stroke", which convinced the people that the Minister of Foreign Affairs would be able to achieve satisfactory results with his talents. . After this round of propaganda offensive, there was finally less opposition.

The negotiation progressed slowly. The two sides kept testing each other's bottom line. The tug-of-war went on extremely hard. After 16 hours of negotiation, the two sides finally reached a consensus.

The content is that the Republic gave up moving forward and retreated to the border, and could only stay in the few star regions that had just been struck down.

This treaty, in fact, is tantamount to acknowledging the Republic's actual control over those star regions, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a cession of territories. It's just that the border area is sparsely populated, and the impact is far less than the second largest planet.

Wu Qiao was not very surprised by this result.

I want to know that in modern warfare, it is an impossible task for the disadvantaged party to persuade a strong enemy to retreat by the advantage of tongues alone.

The empire must lose something. It seems that the empire intends to retreat first, and then regain the lost territory after the rest is complete. The emperor also knew very well that since he wanted to keep the planet, he must pay the price and give the other party enough benefits.

However, in the eyes of the people, this result can only be described as shame and totally unacceptable. They realized that the Minister of Foreign Affairs was self-reliant, and that the promise of "retreating the enemy without a single **** and a tree" had not even been fulfilled at all. They were surprised and excited, and they protested one after another.

On the second day after the results appeared, in order to appease the people, the emperor gave a public speech, strongly reprimanding Kevin, saying that he had lost the face of the empire and should be nailed to the pillar of shame.

The emperor's tone was very excited, and at the end, he immediately dismissed Kevin from his post and let him "step down" to apologize.

That night, Tan Yan and Wu Qiao talked about it.

Tan Yan made no secret of his sympathy for Kevin.

"Kevin is willing to take this hot potato. He is already very loyal." He said.

"..."

"He said that he had won the best conditions, and he had done everything according to the emperor's will."

"Then," Wu Qiao asked Tan Yan, "What will Kevin do in the future?"

"The emperor intends to leave him to do secretly," Tan Yan said, "but Kevin decided to retire completely."

"..."

"Under the current atmosphere, the emperor did not dare to take responsibility. He actually understood it. However, what made him very sad was that the emperor asked people to record his reprimands against Kevin as video materials."

"Um... how did you know?" Wu Qiao asked Tan Yan.

"He has a very good relationship with me, and he confided to me a little bit sadly."

"Oh...what happened to the video data? Didn't you say that he had no opinion on the emperor's criticism?"

"Shhh, yes." Tan Yan nodded, "The thing that makes Kevin uncomfortable is that the emperor deliberately left information in order to prove that he is advocating a war when someone mentions this history in later generations. Absolutely Not the cowardly who confessed the ground for peace."

"..."

"Understood? Kevin believes that the emperor should return him innocence in history, and let people understand the truth at that time when it has nothing to do with the battle. But such a big crime has to be carried to the time when the universe disappears... let him treat the emperor. I am very disappointed, so I plan to retire completely."

"..." Wu Qiao thought for a while, feeling a pity.

If he were the emperor, he would definitely fight hard, but the emperor's thoughts were not incomprehensible.

"At the same time..." Tan Yan sighed, "He also had doubts about this system, which means... he had doubts about this emperor's one-person decision-making system. He was very angry, is it because the emperor is the emperor? , So whoever wants to hold the scapegoat must be the scapegoat?"

"System?" Wu Qiao was taken aback for a moment.

The empire is a complete monarchy, and the emperor represents absolute power.

In the past, the empire also had a republic period, but the current system has lasted for hundreds of years.

For hundreds of years, some people wanted to restore the republic, but the rebels all failed.

The most recent one happened less than two hundred years ago, and those people were almost about to succeed.

That difficult settlement left a bad debt, and this time the war between the two countries is also related to this bad debt.

At that time, the rebels almost took the capital star, and the first heir at that time led a team to the rebels. Later, the battle situation turned into a shocking reversal, and the rebels finally lost. The first heir as a traitor was naturally unable to be accepted by the empire. From then on, the days of wandering in the Republic began, and the second heir, the father of the current emperor, obtained the qualifications to become the emperor. However, the former first heir has always claimed that his surrender was a false surrender. It was negotiated by several heirs in order to preserve the royal fire and rebuild the dynasty. On the day the rebels were suppressed, the younger brothers should have told the truth. Welcoming themselves back, however, they collectively chose to remain silent, because they did not want to see their brother, who had been living peacefully with the enemy army, sit on the throne, while the **** fighting themselves had to bow their heads.

The reason it is said to be a bad debt is because no one except a few parties knew what was going on at that time. Some people believe in the "former first heir", but most of the empire believes that the "former first heir" is lying. He is just a big **** who betrays his country and is full of lies.

Originally, this matter had subsided.

Who knows, after decades of fleeing, the "former first heir" suddenly announced that he would regain his throne, saying that the empire must not be controlled by betrayers, conspirators, and liars like his younger brother. For decades of life in the Republic, he intends to implement a constitutional monarchy system and return the country to its people. In the eyes of the empires, he was catering to the Republic, because he wanted the support of the Republic.

He said that, of course, the imperial royal family could not tolerate it, and immediately demanded that the Republic return people to the empire.

As a result, the Republic publicly stated that they supported the "former first heir" and would help him regain power, and published a lot of evidence at the time, proving that the imperial emperor indeed used dishonorable means to drive away his brother and obtain the throne. Of course, no one knows whether the evidence is true or false. The empires think it is false, and the Republicans think it is true, and it is very messy.

After going back and forth, the two countries actually fought.

At first it was small-scale, but later the war became more and more intense.

However, all the people of the empire knew in their hearts that the emperor’s formality and dictatorship were all excuses.

The real reason is that the Republic wants green sand mines.

Traditional resources are about to be exhausted. The substitute is Qingsha found in Qiuyanting, and Qingsha is in the empire. If you can only count on the empire to export green sand, it is tantamount to saying that the lifeblood of the future of the Republic is in the hands of the empire. As a country, it will be very deadly. Therefore, the Republic will definitely launch a war against the empire before the traditional resources are exhausted, no matter how confident they are.

Moreover, it is said that the two countries were rivals when they were still on the earth. Later they explored the universe and expanded their fields separately. During this period, the boundaries were unclear and territorial problems continued. The grievances and hatreds that have lasted for hundreds of years always require a battle To solve it.

Wu Qiao thought back.

Now...system...heard the word again.

Generally speaking, the emperor is still quite capable now, so... will it really be worse than the Republic? Wu Qiao thinks, it should be...no?

"Also," Tan Yan said again, "The Republic has temporarily retired, and your transfer has also come down. An official notification will be made in two days."

"What is it?" Wu Qiao felt nervous to breathe.

"Join the frontal battlefield and fight against the Republic."

"...Yes." This result is no different from what I thought before.

"The Empire intends to drive the Republic out of the mainland within three months."

"Yes."

"You are assigned to the Fifth Army, and the officer is called Robin, not Robin, but Robyn. The gender is female. By the way, the Fifth Army is also under my command. I will be the highest level you may come into contact with. Sir."

"……Oh."

"So, when you are in the army, you have to listen to my orders."

"I got it."

"But to make up," Tan Yan said sweetly, "I listen to you when I'm at home."

"..."

Wu Qiao didn't take it seriously, because they both knew it, and it was impossible for Wu Qiao to make any unreasonable demands.
