Yu Lian said that this was the first time he saw a troubled expression on this old marshal whose will was as strong as steel.
However, this hesitation only passed for a moment, and he quickly said with a straight face: "Many people think that the Empire is very sincere in this matter, so sincere that it is not the usual style of the Empire. What do you think?
Woolen cloth?"
"When anything goes wrong, there must be a demon! Your Excellency, there must be something fishy about this matter!"
"Then, if it is true...I mean to say the least, if there is a conflict with the empire, can we ensure a balanced situation while maintaining the same strength of troops? In the past year, you have almost
You have been operating with the Imperial fleet, and no one in the entire army understands the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Army better than you. Only you are the most qualified to answer this question."
"To put it bluntly, if we fight with the same forces as the empire under the same conditions, can we win?" Yu Lian sighed: "Sir, what do you think?"
This rhetorical question was enough to explain a lot of problems. The old marshal also sighed: "So, it is difficult for the commander-in-chief and the cabinet to make this decision. Even if they want to withdraw their troops, they must wait and see."
If the cabinet cannot make up its mind, the National Defense Committee cannot issue an order, and the military command headquarters can only hesitate.
"...But, we maintain more than 2,000 warships on the front line of the New World. Can we still afford this kind of consumption?" After Yu Lian said this, he immediately regretted it.
To put it bluntly, if the troops are not withdrawn, the loss of supplies will be too great. Tens of millions of soldiers on the front line have not returned for a year and they cannot even make an instant phone call to their families. The morale of the army can be imagined. However, if the troops are withdrawn, they are afraid of the other side.
The empire is suddenly in trouble. Isn't this a dilemma?
Regardless of national strength, military strength, or even the average combat effectiveness of units, the people on earth are no match for the empire, so this is naturally an unsolvable conspiracy.
Marshal Paris also sighed, but still said: "The three-year period of the Mugubai Agreement is the buffer period. There is always a way to support it. This is not a problem you need to consider. I will
Discuss with the frontline commander to find a balance. As for you, you still have to do your job well, and fate will not let you down. Everything will be fine."
What exactly does this "everything" include? Yu Lian didn't ask, nor did the other party say.
Then, Marshal Paris said again: "You have been stationed in the Fire Galaxy for such a long time, but what do you already know from the alliance?"
"Are you talking about destroying the snake's lair? Such a major situation happened too frivolously. I feel a little lack of reality right now and I need some time to sort out my emotions."
"You can continue to sort it out, but you have to start taking action while sorting it out." Marshal Paris said with his hands on his hands: "The Alliance and the Empire have produced sufficient evidence to prove that this long-standing terrorist organization is responsible for this predator invasion."
The biggest behind-the-scenes pushers are also responsible for countless public safety disasters in the past. Then, we must treat them as enemy countries. The alliance took the initiative to propose a tripartite joint execution of the snake eradication operation, and we have no reason to refuse.
.”
"When the alliance put forward this suggestion, the Lords on the other side of the earth must have been very pleased, right?"
Just kidding, those are the Alliance and the Empire! They ask the community to act together. What does this mean? It means that we are equal allies and true brothers! Like the other "vassals" who serve as sons of the two major countries,
What's Cherk, what's Minlan, what's the covenant, we earthlings can all be considered their uncles.
Even if it's just to make things sound good, the people on Earth will definitely help out in this operation.
What's more, the suggestions put forward by the alliance have been positively recognized by the empire. Does this mean that the dragon kings on the opposite side didn't want to cause trouble to the people on earth, but just wanted to get the big snake with a long history?
Being a snake soup? If the process of our cooperation in suppressing bandits is pleasant, doesn't it mean that the possibility of war between the two countries will be reduced again?
Compared with the above benefits, the World Snake may have dark materials in the hands of high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen, and needs to be silenced. This is already the lowest demand.
In short, every faction in the court has the same demands on this matter.
"In the past few years, you alone have caused more damage to the World Serpent than the Empire and the Alliance combined. Major General Yu Lian, in fact, this honor that belongs to the entire community was created by you. All
The politicians on Earth who are so complacent about this matter should all thank you."
"...So, are you going to be promoted again?" Yu Lian showed an expectant look.
"After all, you already have two generals. Even if you continue to rise, you still have to pay attention to basic personnel ethics." Father Paris said helplessly: "I know, with your current strength, theoretically you should be more
To get a general star, you should have to wait until next year."
Yu Lian said "Oh" in disappointment, thinking that Uncle Wang was the sixth ring and I was also the sixth ring. Why was he a lieutenant general in the first place?
"So, you will get the Order of the Crown of Two Swords and the Order of the Blue Guardian. Haha, you already have three of the former. As for the latter, only a hundred people have received it since the founding of the community. Even I became a marshal.
I just got it.”
Okay, another medal. Yu Lian said he was emotionally stable. He had even received high-level medals of honor from the Empire and the Alliance. There were already so many of them that he could fill the lake wall. If he really wanted to be more serious, maybe he could get them all.
Mr. Xunzong was so ashamed that he hid his face and ran away.
Although I say this, as a mature adult, of course I can only salute to show my gratitude.
"You are still holding the position of deputy commander of the Blue Guard, and you have this kind of relationship with Princess Rainbow Rose of the Alliance. It is reasonable and reasonable for you to preside over this operation."
So what kind of relationship is it? Is it a very identifiable alliance?
"The auxiliary support ship supporting the Fuxi has received the alliance's entry application. You will serve as the commander of the entire fleet and participate in this joint snake suppression operation."
Yu Lian felt a little surprised, but not completely surprised.
If the Earth really wants to participate, I am indeed the most suitable and the only candidate. However, among the Gong Gong princes in the court, there must be many people with a bit of a mentality. If you want them to pinch their noses and give themselves military power,
But it was even more unbearable than letting them leave their wives and a group of energetic young men in a small dark room for three days.
However, they gave it after all, even if it was only temporary.
"After the snake-suppression operation is completed, you will take the fleet to the alliance, join the other three main god ships, and return home from the direction of Nantianmen. Then, you will serve as the director of the Third Operations Division of the General Staff Headquarters and concurrently as the commander-in-chief.
Chief Attendant."
As the leader of the 830th class, Yu Lian has been traveling around for more than two years. For reasons and reasons, he should be transferred back to the headquarters. The position given by the National Defense Commission is also very sincere. It is also a high-power staff position.
The operations department and the attendant's office where you often get along with the president and cabinet ministers day and night. No matter how you look at it, this is the only way to become the number one person in the uniform team. Even if it is replaced by those fleet admirals or military commanders who have military and political power outside.
Warlord, this is an absolute promotion.
However, Marshal Paris squeezed out a friendly expression that was not very skillful, and said in an even less skillful comforting tone: "Commander Nichta feels that being away for a long time is not good for your development. I personally feel that this
It is a meaningless consideration, but we are soldiers and should obey the orders of the National Defense Commission."
"I understand what you mean... No, according to the wishes of some masters, it seems that I may disobey the order. Your subordinate is also a professional soldier with a professional background, and he understands his vocation." Yu Liandao.
"Really no emotions?"
"It is impossible to have absolutely no emotions. But even if there are emotions, it is human nature, so how can it violate military rules and disciplines? Your Excellency, after all, Xianguan is not a warlord. Neither are Xianguan's companions.
"
Marshal Paris glanced at Yu Lian meaningfully: "I don't care what you think. However, there are too many chores at the Military Command Headquarters that require dealing with gentlemen in formal wear. I do also need a reliable person.
Helper. Moreover, if the situation really develops into the most dangerous situation, you may be able to maximize your power from the most macro position."
Yu Lian felt that at least 80% to 90% of what the old marshal said was sincere. Given the other party's character, if he could discuss it with him in such a consultative tone, he was already taking his own emotions into consideration, which made him somewhat a little nervous.
grateful.
Of course, he personally didn't quite agree with what Father Paris said.
"I understand. Your Excellency, I will bring the dreadnoughts back home safely on time. As for this snake-suppression operation, our army is not the main force, but we will definitely produce corresponding results. We will never let you and
Your Excellency the President is disappointed."
"You have never let us down. I have never doubted this." The old marshal showed a happy smile, and then said: "The commander of the empire who participated in the joint operation is His Highness King Wilente.
"
Yu Lian's heart couldn't help but jump: "This person was still in the New World at the beginning of the year, right? It's like he rushed here non-stop after returning to the Sky Territory from the New World? I always thought that King Wilente was an excellent arms manager.
Writers and scientists, but have such power of action?"
"After all, he is choosing the emperor. If he wants to be recognized by the Tirello nobles, he always needs military merit." The marshal said: "Moreover, we have confirmed that the Colossus has also arrived in the Flame Wing Star District of the empire.
Maybe he will also take part in the operation. King Wilent presided over the construction of the colossus. Since this is the first actual battle, he should be present."
Yu Lian only felt that things should not be simple at all.
