This was Yang Ming's first time to attend a high-level official meeting of the Sherman Empire.
I always feel that... except that everyone is very restrained and does not directly curse, other places are very similar to the heated atmosphere when the company's regular meetings set KPI targets for the next quarter.
Several deputy directors of the Military Intelligence Bureau lined up in front of them, all with dark faces and a sense of oppression.
More than a dozen imperial intelligence chiefs with the rank of lieutenant colonel and senior colonel sat on both sides and were the main speakers.
Yang Ming was sitting in the corner, with the virtual sign in front of him saying ‘Specially Invited Participants’.
He never said anything and listened to them discussing the paper. The current problem focused on one point - they could not use a paper to convince the highest level of the Imperial Military to make such a large-scale fleet arrangement.
The meeting lasted for half an hour, and Yang Ming couldn't help but yawn.
"Oh, Mr. Hanton..."
The major general presiding over the meeting caught Yang Ming off guard. The gray-haired old man asked warmly:
"You gave us this information, and we are grateful for it, but now you can see that we can't reach a unified opinion."
Lieutenant Colonel Atero, who was beside Yang Ming, immediately added: "What the general means is whether we can provide more accurate intelligence information to better prove that this paper is credible, so that we can convince the military."
Hera's research on the Zerg was based on her own infection with Zerg microorganisms. She even directly attracted an army of Zerg before, directly proving the existence of higher-order Zerg swarms on the periphery of the galaxy.
"Most of them are chasing, and there is a high probability that they cannot catch up directly," Lu's voice was filled with helplessness. "The target point they went to avoided the empire's local defense system... This is the result of the CIA's work.
."
"Don't worry, that's all part of the plan.
There was a smile on Professor Pat's lips: "Regret? Why regret? This is our job, Nardo, this is also the meaning of half of our lives."
If they don't do something, this entire plan, all these years of hard work, will be completely meaningless.
"I'm an atheist."
Could those anti-human politicians of the New Federation want to... directly detonate the remaining insect swarms in the empire?
Yang Ming asked: "What is the empire's reaction to this?"
"Boss, I'm here."
Yang Ming: Is this a roundabout way of calling the elders of the Presbytery an idiot?
"We once conducted intelligence collection around Professor Pat, but the results were not obvious. This brought together many elite generals in our Military Intelligence Agency and made a lot of sacrifices."
Yang Ming said calmly: "In terms of intelligence work, the Military Intelligence Bureau is several levels behind the New Federal CIA in terms of intelligence capabilities."
"But... you know, many elders of the Presbyterian Council don't really believe in science and technology, and they don't understand scientific argumentation. They want more direct evidence."
Of course, it would be a "short-term pain" for the empire to explode the insect swarm that has not yet fully grown at once, but it is better than continuing to torment and let the empire's national power decline rapidly.
Yang Ming held his waist and walked back and forth beside the bed, trying to recall the plot of the imperial camp in "The Abyss".
The plot of the game was not that outrageous. At most, four or five insect swarms were discovered together, and then it became a carnival for players in the camp.
Yang Ming looked out the window and regained consciousness. He didn't know what he thought of and curled his lips slightly.
This guy is probably just trying to show off his face. A group of intelligence officers are trying to get information?
In this case……
…
Yang Ming raised his eyebrows.
"This is actually not a big deal. We are just raising a possibility. What the empire needs to do is to nip it in the bud."
The conference room was silent for more than ten seconds, and an old general's curse came from the corner:
There was a scream from nearby.
Yang Ming laughed dumbly.
"It's a little slower than us, but the relevant ships have been detected," Lu said softly. "The optical stealth of these ships is very low-level. They can only make themselves transparent, but they cannot perfectly handle the interaction of electromagnetic waves between different media.
The spread rate is poor. The empire has sent a fleet to intercept and pursue it."
The virtual meeting room was silent.
A major general suddenly said: "Go to the conference room next door first. There is some situation at the border. They detected traces of a large number of ships jumping half an hour ago, but they can't find where those ships went. They suspect that the New Federation is up to something."
Atero stood up and gave a military salute, but he cursed calmly in his heart.
"We believe in the conclusions of this paper. It lists a lot of data, which is the same as the data in our database. We have also asked experts to verify it.
"Mad! If dozens of insect swarms are active together, the empire's military power will not be fully deployed for a while. Is the New Federation deliberately letting the insect swarms kill civilians?
This also means that Yang Ming will not be able to find a place to 'upgrade' in the future.
Yang Ming slid his fingers gently, and a list document landed on Atero's network access terminal.
"Hanton," a deputy director said, "these are just your rhetoric."
As soon as Yang Ming turned off the conference projector, Lu's voice came out from his network access terminal.
Who came up with the idea for the New Federation?
That's right. If you think about it carefully, the New Federation has invested a lot of resources in the insect burial plan, and it is impossible to just sit back and watch the empire squeeze out the abscess little by little.
"Our mission has been completed, Nardo," Professor Pat pointed the gun at Nardo's forehead and turned on the biosafety, "I'm really sorry about your daughter."
"law?"
"How did I get this information?
"I can tell you that I got the first piece of information by instigating people in the New Federation-related research team.
"What are you doing standing still? Arrest him quickly! Arrest him and interrogate him!"
Naldo took a sip of his hot drink: "We are serving this country, right?"
A flashing light on the big screen suddenly dimmed.
"yes!"
There was chatter and laughter in the living room. Catherine and Hanton's mother returned from shopping. Yang Ming adjusted his expression and opened the bedroom door with a smile on his face.
This is simply terrible!
"Publish information through the White Ghost organization on the Internet and collect as much evidence as possible to prove that the New Federation is doing evil."
Needless to say, he had already thought of some possibility.
One person asked: "How do the high-level insect swarms that exist on the periphery of the galaxy communicate with the insect swarms buried in the empire?"
"A ship has already arrived at this point," Professor Pat said calmly. "After impacting the surface, the ship will release enough energy to shake the earth's crust, and after the explosion, it will release a special gas that makes the insect swarm aggressive.
The group will be activated quickly."
The base hall looks a little empty.
Yang Ming said: "These are two lists. One list is for three mid-level officers within the Military Intelligence Bureau, and evidence of their contact with senior agents of the New Federation.
Naldo whispered: "This will allow us to reduce the damage to federal soldiers, we can think of it this way."
If the New Federation detonates all the remaining insect burial sites, then he can only eat this wave of 'experience'. If he wants to improve his strength in the future, he must go to the outer reaches of the galaxy to find those powerful and abnormally powerful bugs, or raise some small bugs to kill himself.
Playing.
Yang Ming continued: "Military Intelligence's overseas intelligence capabilities are extremely lagging behind. You have been tricked by the CIA. Many of the secret lines you have developed are double agents of the CIA. They have infiltrated the empire into a sieve.
But the Imperial Military Intelligence Bureau doesn’t care about this.”
Professor Pat didn't pay much attention to the source of these noises.
"A system like the empire should not exist. Moreover, even if some people are killed or injured, it will not have any impact. From a macro perspective, the population will recover quickly.
New Federation, a secret underground base on a remote resource star.
The bald Naldo slowly walked over from the side with a cup of hot drink in hand, looking up at the big screen as well.
Yang Ming stood up, turned around and was about to exit the virtual meeting room.
"You're wrong again, Nardo."
"Yes, Mr. Hanton, where did you get so much information about the New Federation's buried bugs?"
"Atro, you are responsible for the arrest!"
"Why do you think this is okay? Law is very curious about this."
"It's useless, Lieutenant Colonel, they are already questioning me," Yang Ming said calmly, "I am barely a veteran in dealing with the Zerg and the New Federal CIA. Please understand, I don't have to cooperate with you."
"I also want to add a question, Mr. Hanton, how did you get this paper?"
The expressions of a group of senior officers changed.
Chirp!
At the slight sound, Naldo's eyes widened, and the edges of the blood hole on his forehead were scorched black.
Professor Pat smiled and said:
Yang Ming immediately sat down, his eyes looking a little thoughtful.
"Send a message to Captain Gris and tell him to prepare for the storm.
"teach……"
Artero sat there and kept shaking his head.
"yes."
Later, he truthfully reported the unpleasantness that happened here to his third uncle.
"What matters is what ideology these populations follow."
They seemed to have seen it, and saw a silver-white battleship entering the atmosphere. The mechanical soldiers inside stayed at their posts, quietly watching the rapidly magnifying surface below.
Yang Ming nodded calmly: "I am just a blower, not an igniter. I only provide ironclad evidence to the empire, and I will not interfere with the decisions made by the empire's high-level officials, even if I have to bear a certain amount of sins and suffer from gods.
There is no harm in condemning him."
"Law, report this matter to Lieutenant General Thomas and ask him to activate the empire's military system as soon as possible.
"Later, the ancient god gene in my body had a special ability to sense the insect swarm, so I could sense the location of some insect swarms.
He smiled calmly and said slowly:
"yes!"
Artro frowned and said: "What do you guys mean? Do you think Mr. Ghost will have any connection with the New Federation? This is simply an insult to the White Ghost!"
call out!
Yang Ming made a move to open the door, and the virtual projection disappeared in a blink of an eye.
"Boss, we captured several special ships of the New Federation!"
Now, the empire is clearing out those 'hidden' insect swarms at an alarming rate.
"Actually, everyone has made this matter too complicated. The reason why I gave this paper is to remind the empire that it must beware of sneak attacks by high-level insect swarms.
"A list is of one hundred and twenty-six suspected New Federation intelligence agents on the planet where I am at this moment.
"Before the empire showed up, I had been fighting against the new federal CIA in various fields."
"Professor," Naldo asked suddenly, "will you regret it?"
Yang Ming whispered:
"They will definitely deny it vigorously. We must find irrefutable evidence that they cannot deny. This will maximize the probability of a full-scale war between the Empire and the New Federation."
"We are going to an uninhabited planet," Lu Kuai said. "Based on the previously detected jump reactions and the detection of the vibration amplitude of space ripples, it is estimated that there are at least thirty similar warships. After they completed the jump together, they quickly disappeared.
The gap in the empire's border defenses has been filled."
"Can you stop me?"
"Now, I suggest that the meeting be suspended for a few hours. You can arrest them for interrogation. After the interrogation is over, you can decide how to communicate with me."
"Let me ask you a simple question again, what are the levels of senior CIA agents?"
The major general who presided over the meeting said seriously:
Lu's voice disappeared.
Professor Pat, who had gray hair on his temples, stood in front of a large screen with his hands behind his back.
This smooth curved surface and flowing lines are indeed the craftsmanship used by the New Federation.
"Professor Pat?"
"yes."
He saw the laser pistol that Professor Pat took out from his arms.
"Ask Hera if she has any way to stop it."
Several projection screens jumped out, carrying several smooth-shaped 300-meter-class special ships.
…
"Where did they go?" Yang Ming asked.
They must activate a backup plan now.
"Yes, but this is our scientific research result," Professor Pat said with a smile, "We are just black gloves for doing this kind of thing. We will not be recognized, accepted, or get any honors. We
His descendants will bear endless sins."
"The military department can mobilize several elite fleets as a quick reaction force. Once a high-level insect swarm appears, they will immediately encircle and annihilate them.
Yang Ming rubbed his eyebrows.
If there is anyone who knows more about the Zerg than Hera, it can only be Professor Pat's team in the New Federation, where Hera's father Nardo is a member.
Of course he believed in Hera's abilities.
Naldo frowned slightly.
"A lot of people are going to die, aren't they?"
Professor Pat and Naldo looked over at the same time, and all they saw was a cold display screen.
But the existence of Hera cannot be known to the empire.
"Hanton!" Lieutenant Colonel Artero shouted, "I believe you."
Lieutenant Colonel Atero acted quickly and immediately submitted the list to the deputy director.
Ludao: "Okay boss, as your parasitic mechanical thinking body, I must remind you again that a full-scale war will inevitably cause a large number of human casualties."
Yang Ming could only say: "Indeed, this paper alone allows the empire to make large-scale military arrangements. This is something I did not consider before."
Yang Ming said calmly:
"You haven't even found out where the name White Ghost comes from. This is the name of the operation set by a former female director of the new federal CIA. They wanted to catch me hiding in the dark, and I was killed in the end.
That’s all.
Naldo mused.
"In this case, I will give you some more gifts."
Nardo said calmly: "If we are so radical, we will also attract revenge from the empire."
On the big screen were forty-six flashing light spots.
He was right when he criticized the Imperial Military Intelligence Agency just now.
The instruments have been removed, most of the jobs are empty, and the giant petri dishes used to raise insects now have no traces of the insects.
"It's civilization," Professor Pat whispered. "The New Federation is a civilization, free, democratic, prosperous, and full of vitality. We are here to help this civilization develop and grow, and to allow this ideology to spread to a larger planet.
domain, and dedicate everything you have.”
Professor Pat naturally knew what was happening now. This was a plan they had planned before, but it had never been approved by the superiors.
These people have never had any offline contact with Hanton or communicated with Hanton's father. At heart, he is an officer who has deep feelings for the empire, and Hanton's father can completely prove it.
He stared at the screen, as if he saw planets one after another being hit by battleships, and the muzzle of the pistol was already aimed at his chin.
"for freedom."
Two more flashes of light dimmed on the screen.
Professor Pat fell to the ground, his white coat stained with a hint of red.
