Jane felt like she was sick.
Her body was weak, her cheeks were as hot as fire, her head was a little dizzy, and the whole world was shaking when she looked out. The people around me seemed to be saying something, but it sounded like a swarm of giant flies flying around, and I couldn't hear anything except annoyance.
She saw that she was holding a wine glass in her hand, but the wine in the glass was shaking for no reason, and the shaking became more and more violent. Finally, most of the wine flew out of the glass.
The ground was tilting, as if it was standing up, kissing her face.
At this moment, several hands stretched out and put them on her body, and the ground finally stopped moving.
Jane suddenly woke up, and the world became clear again. Someone was asking loudly in her ear: "Miss Jane, what's wrong with you?"
Jane looked around, she was still at the cocktail party, and the chip record showed that she almost fainted just now. Fortunately, most people's attention was on the panoramic screen in the sky, and only a few people around noticed something strange about themselves.
Fortunately... Jian calmed down, straightened her body, and said with her usual expression: "I've been too tired these past few days. I just got drunk. I'm fine now. Thank you."
While the people around her were still trying to comfort her, Jane pointed to the screen above and said, "Listen to what she is saying."
As expected, people's attention was attracted by the big screen. Jane took a deep breath and said to herself: It's not a big deal, the maximum loss is only 18 billion. Boston Credit can afford this loss...
Is it affordable? Jane felt that she knew the answer. The assets she had worked so hard to acquire, the profits hidden by the bank behind the statements over the years, and the overdraft of part of the future, allowed her to make a statement with a 100% increase this year. The incremental part was 40 billion. As a result, half of it was suddenly gone.
"No, nothing has been decided yet..." Jane encouraged herself and looked at the screen. No matter what kind of news it was, she was used to facing it directly.
On the big screen, the host looked serious and heavy and said: "According to the latest news from the Canfu Galaxy, the federal rescue fleet was defeated in a fleet battle with the King's Banner Star Pirates. It is initially confirmed that the rescue fleet lost three starships. Two of the destroyers were destroyed, and one light cruiser was suspected of being... captured?"
After reading this, the host was stunned. Space is different from ground warfare. You can escape in all directions, and being captured is quite rare. It was an incredible humiliation for a regular federal fleet warship to be captured by a star pirate.
The host continued: "Next, I will read out the statement issued by the Wang Banner mercenaries."
The host paused deliberately before continuing: "The full text of Wang Qi's mercenary statement is as follows:
An important asset of our group was lost and I heard that it had been transferred to the Souo Galaxy, so I came to look for it. However, during the search process, they encountered malicious obstructions from some individuals, and the forwards of the regiment had no choice but to defend themselves. This is the second search. In order to ensure that the process is not hindered, the group has tried its best to piece together a dilapidated fleet for self-defense.
Sure enough, our group was attacked as soon as they entered the Aangfu galaxy. Unfortunately, although the people who came had ulterior motives, their abilities did not match their greed, and they were defeated in one attack without any challenge.
In order to make up for the loss of the group and to warn against similar incidents in the future, the group will confiscate the assets of the federal government in the Sogo system as compensation. In addition, another 1,100 federal soldiers will stay temporarily in our regiment. We hope that the federal government will resolve the matter as soon as possible and take them home. Although their battle was heroic, no matter how brave the warriors were, they could not save the stupid commander, and the defeat was not their responsibility.
Finally, if similar incidents happen again in the future, I hope the federal government will send some generals who can fight. This group is also a dynasty registered Star Thief, with a long history and brilliant achievements. We have fought too many water battles like this, which is an insult to the history of our group.
Sincerely. "
After reading a statement, the host had to digest it for a few seconds before asking Trudeau next to him: "What do you think of this statement?"
Trudeau carefully considered his words and said: "No matter what prejudices we had against Wang Qi before, after this battle, any evaluation of it must be cautious. This is the most basic respect for a powerful enemy. This statement is very What's interesting is that it has a long history. It was registered less than a month ago. If it can be said to have a long history, then the Federation can be said to have existed forever. But the word "brilliant achievements" is really hard to evaluate. The recorded battles are two Let’s simply call them the first and second battles of Sogo. On paper, both sides were equally strong in these two battles, but the result was a complete victory for Wang Banner, and the fight was quite good. As for the second battle of Sogo Whether it counts as a water battle or not, my opinion is hard to say. After all, there is indeed a lot of room for improvement in our command in this battle..."
At the reception venue, the young man turned to the old man and said, "Did you hear that? Wang Qi said this was a water fight, and then in your mouth Chennault became a famous general? It's because there are too many people like you, real talents You can't stand out! Who said that children from a big family must be playboys, and that they must be given more opportunities if they come from a poor family? In our family, if anyone had fought such a complete defeat, he would have been withdrawn to the end, and there would be a second time Opportunity? Why give Chennault a second chance? Just because his family is poor?"
Another young man said coldly: "He is poor? Brother, how naive are you? Didn't you listen to what Wang Qi said? He lost something important, but Chennault rushed over to stop him. If there is no trick behind this, I'll beat him to death. I don’t believe it either. Think about it, how valuable is something so important that it requires a fleet to find it? If Chennault takes some hard work, you and I will never be able to earn it in our lifetime.”
The old man's lips were trembling with anger and he couldn't say anything. He turned to Jian and said, "Miss Jian, I can't bear guests like you. I'm leaving now!"
Jane was in a trance at this time and nodded without listening to what the old man said.
The old man didn't expect to be humiliated again. He stamped his feet angrily, turned around and left.
Jane's reaction was a little slow, and just when she wanted to chase him, she was surrounded by a group of fanatical young people. These young people suddenly not only introduced Jian as a confidant, but also regarded her as a leader.
These hot-blooded guys hated the decay and incompetence of their own fleet more than they hated Wang Qi. Instead, they were impressed by the unabashed arrogance in its statement.
Several young people immediately wanted to follow suit. They planned to invest together and register a Star Thieves group called War Flag Mercenaries. They also planned to go to the dynasty and confiscate some government assets. They planned to push Jian to take the lead, but Jian was not in such a mood at the moment, and she knew that war was by no means a child's play. There are not many star areas bordering the Dynasty and the Federation. The most convenient place to fight apart from the vertical line is N77.
There is Xu Bingyan on the vertical line. N77 has no government assets, but it has a light-year base camp. Where do these young people plan to go?
However, being disturbed by these young people, Jane remembered that there was a special fleet in N77 than Linde, and now she just hoped that they could do something.
