Qu Ruiyi stared at the small house, which was only a few dozen square meters at most, for a long time before saying, "Major Chu, is this your base?"
"Yes. What kind of base do you think a major can have?"
"Where are the other bases?"
"It should still be on this planet, right? I can't find it."
"Can't find it? Major Chu, I hope you can understand that now is not the time to joke!" Qu Ruiyi's voice rose an octave.
Chu Jungui's face darkened and he said coldly: "Colonel Qu, I hope you can understand where you are and who you are talking to! My base is on this planet, but all you can see is this one. I think. For other things, you can find them yourself."
Qu Ruiyi was about to have a seizure, but Lin Lang, who had been silent until now, pulled him, stood in front of him, and asked, "Major Chu, what do you mean by letting us find it ourselves?"
Chu Jun said calmly: "It means literally, my people and my starship will be taken away, but this house can be left for you, at least it can protect you from wind and rain. Oh, by the way, I want to leave this planet If so, I'm afraid you will have to build your own starship. Just a reminder, storm clouds are not easy to survive. If you are not careful, you may die in the line of duty, and you cannot even be called a martyr."
Qu Ruiyi's face was livid, Lin Lang pulled him again and said, "It seems that we are not well prepared this time. We have also seen the base. Can Major Chu send us back to orbit?"
"……Can."
A moment later, the transport ship once again returned to the planet's orbit without any danger. Qu Ruiyi and Lin Lang gathered their men back to the frigate. Before leaving, they left a message to Chu Jungui: "I will report everything this time, so you can take care of yourself. In addition, I see that you have reached the stage of major, which is the end." ”
Chu Jungui smiled and just said, "Welcome again."
"I'll come again, soon!" Qu Ruiyi gritted his teeth, boarded the ship and left.
The frigate gradually moved away, and Lin Lang in the starship silently placed a set of numbers in front of Qu Ruiyi.
"Five legions, with a total investment of 150,000 troops, ended up with 80,000 casualties and 22,000 missing people... What is this?"
Lin Lang said: "This is the number of troops and casualties the Federation invested in Planet 4 in the last battle. In addition, there are more than a dozen generals from the former Federation in the special company of Chu Jungui."
Qu Ruiyi's face was ugly: "No wonder he is so rampant! If we want to uproot him, the fleet will suffer heavy losses. The war is coming, and we may not be able to afford it."
Lin Lang smiled mysteriously and said, "It seems that you are not well informed! No matter how high the price is, you have to pay it. I heard that how this matter is handled may affect whether General Su can be promoted to marshal."
Qu Ruiyi's eyebrows gradually opened and she made up her mind: "If this is the case, then let's work harder!"
At the No. 4 planetary orbital station, Chu Jungui watched as more than a dozen engineers attached engines to the orbital station that had been thoroughly marked, pushing the orbital station to fly to high orbit. This orbital station will be pushed into orbit around the star, waiting for the 4th Fleet to come and receive it.
Regardless of the outcome, the process must be rigorous. Now that the 4th Fleet has sent people to mark this orbital station, Chu Jungui has to offer it with both hands. Whether the price assessment is outrageous or not is not important at least at this time point. If you have any objections, you can appeal afterwards. If you are not satisfied with the appeal result, it is okay. Continue to appeal to the next higher authority. But for now, the orbital station must be handed over without discounts.
Although this orbital station was temporarily created by Chu Jungui to fool the 4th Fleet, its value was not low. Because of this, Chu Jungui was inevitably a little unhappy. And the 4th Fleet made a surprise attack and came with great fanfare. In the end, they only took so little, which was naturally even more unpleasant. Since both parties are unhappy, of course the matter will not end there, there must be sequels.
After experiencing a judicial battle in the Federation, Chu Jungui had roughly understood how the game should be played under the system. By analogy, a lot of experience gained in the Federation could also be used in the dynasty.
With the idea in mind, Chu Jungui let the starship construction base take off and rise from low orbit to high orbit. During the construction of the starship, many of the equipment were unprotected and could not be deployed or installed in low orbits that were too close to storm clouds. Another orbital station used to replenish energy was also returned to high orbit.
Chu Jungui wants to speed up production. Only by improving his strength will he have more space and leeway.
At the 4th Fleet Mobile Base, Su Jian stood in front of the window and listened quietly to Qu Ruiyi and Lin Lang's report on the entire investigation process. He picked up the investigation report, glanced at it, put it aside, and said in a deep voice: "That's all?"
"There are only so many. We proposed to go to his planet base to investigate, but he only showed us an empty room and directly threatened us."
Su Jian's face was as dark as water, and he said slowly: "How presumptuous!"
Qu Ruiyi and Lin Lang stood in silence, not daring to say a word. They knew that Su Jian would be extremely angry if he could make him say such things. Su Jiancheng was a very deep man, and usually kept his emotions and anger hidden. However, he was famous for his sharp and ruthless methods, and he attached great importance to hierarchy and obedience. In Su Jian's eyes, even if the order is wrong, his subordinates must carry it out. Even if they are allowed to die, as long as the order is given, all the subordinates must die. As for whether the order is right or wrong, it is not something that the subordinates should consider at all. They only need to obey.
Su Jian had a bottom line for this material requisition. In his idea, it would be enough to requisition 70% as the first step. He had to leave some money for Chu Jungui to maintain his family. As for what new requirements the Xu family will have in the future, his focus right now is how to defend the N77 star field. But I didn't expect Chu Jungui to be so bold. Not to mention 70%, not even 7% was spit out!
This is really not taking him seriously as an admiral!
Su Jian's face gradually calmed down, but anyone who knew him well knew that this was exactly the characteristic of him being extremely angry. Su Jian clicked on the table, and a major general came in a moment later.
"You take your own fleet and follow Colonel Qu and Colonel Lin to carry out another mission. This time you must see his orbital shipyard and planetary base. If that Major Chu still dares to stop it, you can say it is mine. Meaning. Go!"
The three officers filed away, while Su Jian stayed in front of the star map, meditating in silence. His first priority now is to arrange the defense of the entire battle, and he really doesn't have much energy to take care of such a trivial matter as material requisition. In his view, the Federation was the real threat. If he can't defend the N77 star field, no matter how much he does for the Xu family, he will never get his hands on the marshal's scepter.
24 hours later, while Chu Jungui was inspecting a new batch of energy capsules shipped from the energy supply orbital station, he received another message that people from the 4th Fleet had arrived again.
This time the 4th Fleet sent no longer two frail frigates, but a lineup headed by a light cruiser, carrying a destroyer and a frigate, and also carried two landing craft and a transport ship with the ship. At first glance, this lineup is here to move things.
"We meet again, Major Chu. You didn't expect me to come back so soon, right?" Qu Ruiyi flew to Chu Jungui and landed. This energy-supplementing orbital base is large enough and has been equipped with an artificial gravity system. He looked around and sneered: "What, you won't hide it this time?"
Chu Jungui was very calm, "It's already here, there's no need to hide it."
"You finally got smarter. It's not too late. Where is your base that can build starships? Bring it over. In addition, the bases on the planet's ground must also be requisitioned. This is what Admiral Su Jian means. I heard that Do you still have a lot of starships? Take them out, don’t worry, I will leave one for you. Oh, by the way, where is your special force company? Let them assemble. From today on, they will be temporarily under the command of the 4th Fleet!"
After finishing his long speech, Qu Ruiyi glanced at Chu Jungui and said sarcastically: "If you had been so obedient last time, you would still have a little more left over. But this time you are not at a huge loss, at least I will leave something for you." I bought a starship. If I had it my way, it would be enough to give you a commercial ship ticket, at least you wouldn’t have to pay for it yourself. Now, pack your things and get out!"
Chu Jungui looked at the group of soldiers behind Qu Ruiyi, then glanced at the silent major general, and said, "Is this the style of the 4th Fleet?"
Qu Ruiyi's face darkened and he shouted: "Chu Jungui! Don't be so shameless! If you do this again, then don't leave and come back to the fleet with us for investigation!"
Chu Jungui sneered: "Idiot!"
"What did you say?!" Qu Ruiyi's voice rose an octave and her hand was already on the gun.
Chu Jun Guining said calmly: "There are not many colonels in the Federation who dare to shoot in front of me. Those who dare to do so and are still alive are basically in my special company."
Qu Ruiyi's face was a little distorted, and she gritted her teeth and said, "You dare to threaten me?!"
Chu Jungui ignored him, looked at the major general, and said, "Since it is a requisition investigation, why don't you put a mark?"
The major general was silent for a moment and said, "There's no rush."
Chu Jungui sneered: "If you don't mark it, there will be no record. When I receive the compensation afterwards, there will probably be only a pile of steel in the account, right? If you leave me ten tons, do I still have to thank you? This is a bit unnecessary. Face!"
The major general did not speak. Qu Ruiyi stepped forward and shouted: "Chu Jungui! You have the last ten minutes, hand over the hidden assets immediately, otherwise you will never leave!"
"Want a starship? Yes, it's over there. It's already here."
Chu Jun pointed towards the distance. Qu Ruiyi looked in the direction of his finger and saw three starships approaching at high speed. These three starships are very different from the Dynasty standard starships. They all have particularly huge beam main guns, which is a typical feature of the Lightyear starships.
The three starships approached at high speed, but did not get close to each other at the berth. Instead, they flew directly around the light cruiser in outer space. The finished font surrounded the light cruiser, and one even occupied the key position of the engine nozzle. Then the bow armor shell opened, revealing the muzzle of the beam cannon.
The change came suddenly. The officers and soldiers of the 4th Fleet did not expect such a change at all, and were not prepared at all. By the time they reacted, the flagship was already surrounded.
Li Ruobai's projection appeared on the platform of the orbital station, and said with a bit of murderous intent: "I heard that someone wants to commandeer the Li family's starship in our space?"
Only then did Qu Ruiyi discover that the three starships all had the emblems of the Tianyu Li family, but the painting process was a bit rough, and it looked like the paint didn't even have time to dry.
