At Qingping base, Lu Queyun was pacing back and forth in the office, feeling a little uncontrollably irritated.
There were several generals in the office, all of whom were excited and chatting endlessly around Lu Queyun.
"General! When did our Ninth Fleet suffer such humiliation?"
"It's really too much!"
"We are all soldiers, how can we be humiliated by villains? I, Old Zhu, would rather die in battle with dignity, than suffer such cowardice! I will lead the team to set off tomorrow, and I will not repay you until I die!"
Lu Queyun smiled bitterly, stretched out his hand to hold the excited veteran's shoulders, pushed him back into the chair, and then glanced around. These are all his old subordinates, some of whom have been together for decades.
He cleared his throat and said slowly: "You have all been in the army for many years. Don't you still know what the situation is now? No matter what the reason is, the originally planned supplies will definitely not be delivered on time. Our ammunition is only enough to support one week, one week What are we going to ask the soldiers to use to fight with? Are they going to hit us with starships?"
All the generals were silent.
Lu Queyun sighed and said, "The situation is unsolvable right now. Only the Xu family's supplies can sustain us until formal supplies and reinforcements arrive. We can now make what Xu Zhanfeng has done public, but in this way Come, the Xu family will definitely not have any more supplies in the future."
A general said angrily: "If you don't have it, you won't have it! What's the big deal? With less guns, you can't even fight a war?"
The lieutenant general smiled bitterly and said: "This is the era of interstellar development, not the Middle Ages of the home planet. Deep space ship battles involve strength. Without reinforcements, it will be difficult for us to garrison. What will we do if we have no supplies, especially no ammunition? Beat? These are hundreds of thousands of lives, are they used to fulfill your loyalty?"
The general opened his mouth and stopped talking.
"Since you can't hold on, then withdraw! Why are you still here?"
"Withdraw? It's easy to say. What a big crime it is to lose the entire war zone. We will definitely be held accountable. Are you and I able to bear this responsibility? When the higher authorities are held accountable, the finger will only be pointed at Marshal Xuan Shang. We all After following the marshal for many years, if I implicate the marshal because of my incompetence, how can I have the face to face my colleagues in the future?" Lu Queyun still shook his head.
"The marshal hasn't taken office yet, hasn't he? Besides, I don't believe it anymore. Who can win this kind of battle? Old Lu, you are used to being cautious and act decisively! If you ask me, don't worry about it. Eleven, go directly to the higher authorities! We can’t survive, and we can’t let the Xu family live easy!"
Lu Queyun just smiled bitterly and shook his head.
In the room, Lin Xi was sitting at the table, reading the battle report page by page. She is using general authority at the moment and has the right to read most battle reports. The more he looked, the more he understood how dangerous the battle situation was at this moment. An image suddenly popped up in a battle report. It was a starship with only two-thirds left, and the entire head was missing. But miraculously it drove back. On the berth, corpses were being lifted out of the ship in a long queue, and the other end was out of the screen.
As she looked at it, she suddenly called up Lu Queyun's resume and looked at it carefully. Lin Xi does not have the authority to view Lu Queyun's evaluation of each period of service, but most of his experiences are public, and his major achievements and faults are within the scope of his authority. Seeing these, you can roughly understand the evaluation.
In fact, without looking at it, Lin Xi could tell a lot about him based on her understanding of him. The reason why I watched it was just to confirm one more layer.
After reading it carefully, Lin Xi silently closed the terminal, sighed softly, and said to himself: "Uncle Lu has always been a cautious person!"
She stood up, came to the mirror, looked at herself in the mirror, smiled self-deprecatingly, and said, "Look, you don't even look like you anymore. Do you have to lose your edges when you grow up? That way. If you do, it really won’t be you anymore.”
Lin Xi opened the drawer, took out a small tool bag, and took out a thread and a small scalpel.
She looked at the blade of the scalpel and tried it gently with her finger. A thin scratch appeared on her fingertip, and a drop of blood oozed out.
The knife is very sharp.
Lin Xi bit the thread in her mouth, lifted her hair, and tied it on the top of her head. Then she touched the personal chip interface on the back of her neck and slowly opened it with a scalpel.
The incision was very long and deep, so deep that it had to be cut back and forth several times until the surface of the personal chip was exposed. Blood continued to gush from the wound and soaked the clothes on his back.
Lin Xi bit her lip lightly, beads of sweat leaked from her forehead, and her lips lost some color. She didn't use narcotics, not at all.
At this time, she needed pain. Only pain can wash away the humiliation.
She inserted her fingers into the wound, and this action made her face pale again. After stroking the personal chip, Lin Xi memorized the distribution of all microdevices on the chip surface. She inserted the thin metal wire into the wound and tapped two places on the surface of the chip. An extremely thin nano-needle immediately stretched out from the chip, pierced her central nervous system, and injected the pre-existing gene unlocking medicine.
When another switch is opened, all the locked areas of the personal chip are unlocked, and the chip performance is instantly improved.
In an instant, Lin Xi felt that his range of perception had doubled, and his speed of thinking had also increased to a new level, almost doubling. However, what followed was a severe headache, which made her vision go dark.
Lin Xi knew that this was because the chip's performance was too high and exceeded the load on his own nervous system. She tried to slow down her thinking speed, all the way down to 150%, and then she felt better.
After heaving a sigh of relief, Lin Xi felt a damp heat behind her back. The severe pain just now made her tighten her body subconsciously, causing more blood to bleed.
However, all the restrictions on the chip have been lifted; the Lin family's traditional blockade on body functions has also been opened.
Now Lin Xi doesn't need to take things step by step, nor does he need to accumulate knowledge. Even if it will affect the upper limit of future development, that is still a matter of the future. What she is focusing on right now is just the present. Ten thousand years is too long to seize the day!
She broke all the restrictions on herself and would no longer obey her family's arrangements. She will still shoulder the responsibility, but how to complete it will only be done in her own way.
Lin Xi stained some blood, smeared her lips red, then tore off the blood-stained top and put on a new one. As for the wound on the back of the neck, I just sprayed some trauma medicine to seal it, then put the collar up to block it, and let it go.
Lin Xi walked out of the room and strode towards the speed car on the other side of the square. Many officers in the square were noisy, but when they saw Lin Xi, they suddenly became quiet.
Lin Xi boarded the speed car and only said: "Go to where Xu Zhanfeng lives."
The speeding car automatically took off and flew away. Many officers heard her last words and felt excited. For some reason, they boarded the speeding car and followed Lin Xi.
After a while, Xu Zhanfeng opened the door and saw Lin Xi unexpectedly, so he smiled and said: "What, you figured it out? That's good! I will send out the subsequent supply ships immediately, and I will not detain any of them!"
"No, I came here just to give you a chance." Lin Xi said calmly.
"Opportunity? What opportunity?"
"This is an opportunity to show how powerful you are as a core member of the Xu family."
Xu Zhanfeng looked at the more and more officers gathering behind Lin Xi, and felt something was wrong. But he was confident and said bravely: "Okay, how to show it?"
"Let's go to the arena and play ten games. As long as you can survive three seconds in one of the ten games, I will lose!"
Xu Zhanfeng was stunned.
