The deep, rich voice of the deputy head of the federal delegation echoed in the hall, and the irregular hall had a wonderful echo. “Based on the simplest humanitarianism, in order to avoid further casualties and to allow those who were forced to be separated from their families to The soldiers can be reunited with their families as soon as possible. With the greatest sincerity, we hope to reach an armistice with you..."
He was only halfway through his words when he was interrupted by Lin Xi: "No, you don't want to."
The deputy leader was stunned: "What don't you want?"
"You don't want a truce at all."
The deputy leader glanced at Hathaway quietly. The little princess's eyes were slightly closed, as if she was concentrating with her eyes closed, and there was no reaction at all. He frowned and said: "Like your side, we are quite sincere about the armistice..."
"You're wrong. We don't want a truce. But on this point, we are quite consistent."
The deputy head of the delegation was already angry: "This is a diplomatic occasion. If your representative does not understand what diplomatic etiquette is, then please find someone else to talk to."
"Very good, let's talk about it next time." Lin Xi actually stood up, turned around and left.
The deputy commander was stunned. He had been engaged in diplomacy for many years and had never encountered such a thing. However, during the negotiation, both parties used many tricks, and it cannot be ruled out that the other party deliberately made gestures in order to obtain a higher price. The deputy leader knew that he had to keep his composure at this time and not lose his momentum.
However, Lin Xi was about to walk out the door and had no intention of looking back. At this time, the little princess shouted: "Wait a minute!"
Lin Xi stopped, smiled slightly, and said, "Now is not the time for negotiation. You should take good care of yourself first."
No matter what Hathaway said, it was stuffed back into his stomach. However, she was not in a hurry and just sat there, but the deputy leader couldn't bear it anymore and stood up, shouting: "With your attitude, you will be fully responsible for the breakdown of this negotiation! To be precise, it is you, Lin Xi, take full responsibility! All consequences arising from this will be borne by you!"
"No problem." Lin Xi actually agreed, then turned and left.
The deputy leader stayed for a while before he realized that Lin Xi and the Guangnian delegation had really left, and the armistice negotiations had ended. When he came back to his senses, he suddenly trembled with anger and roared: "These barbarians, bastards, liars, stinky hooligans! Iberico pigs with no manners! Spoiled cheese slices!..."
Queen looked at Hathaway and asked, "What now?"
Hathaway stood up slowly and said, "What else can be done? Go back, prepare for war, and continue to fight. The big shots on the war committee have just the right reason to continue the war, but this is also their last reason."
Kun only felt that the little princess's words were a bit unfathomable, so he planned to check who were the members of the war committee as soon as he returned to the base, what their backgrounds and factions were, what their usual opinions were, and what they thought about this war. What proposition. With his connections, he can still get most of the meeting minutes, but only those meetings with the highest level of confidentiality cannot be seen. From these meeting minutes, we can clearly see the direction of the meeting, the respective positions and reasons of the big shots, and the process of competing, debating and compromising. Of course, if you are a real expert, you can also see many clues of the transactions under the table.
This knowledge has been taught by Kun's family since he was a child. In ancient families, politics has always had the supreme status. Kun used to study just to pass the exam, but now he has been stimulated personally and is ready to work hard and manage his career and status well. Speaking of which, Kun feels that he is not young anymore. He will soon be 30, and it is time to pick up the family business.
On the way back, he had already sketched out a detailed plan in his mind and was waiting to be implemented.
But after returning to the base, Kun tried to contact the family's contact person, but due to well-known environmental reasons, the first contact was unsuccessful, and the second contact 10 minutes later was also unsuccessful. So Kun felt a little annoyed and decided to wait until tomorrow to discuss this matter.
Then, nothing more happened.
In the orbital base, Crassus stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the eternal blue sun while listening to Hathaway's report. What happened was very simple, and the little princess explained it clearly in less than ten minutes.
After listening, he was silent for a long time, and then said: "Neutral force, this word is very good. I think many friends on the other side would like to hear this word very much. I will send them the materials they want."
Hathaway asked: "Are we going to win him over to our side?"
Crassus shook his head: "It's difficult. This time the three elite marines were nearly wiped out, which made the military bosses very embarrassed! I guess there will be a lot of internal opposition."
"The most shameless boss, isn't it you?"
Crassus laughed and said: "I don't count. Oh, the military rank is barely enough, but the qualifications are far behind. After all, I am still young! Haha! But the truce now is a bit reluctant, and it is just a good time to explore the bottom of Light Years. .By the way, I just reviewed the entire battle process and made several interesting discoveries. Do you want to take a look?"
"Okay." Of course the little princess would not refuse.
Crassus stretched out his hand and pressed it, and a holographic map appeared in the center of the hall, which was the entire battlefield. The map can be zoomed in infinitely until the details of a certain tank can be clearly seen. This map brings together the data collected by all basic combat units, resulting in this map with countless details.
Crassus set a point in time, and the map immediately changed, showing the situation at the beginning of the war. Then the situation rapidly evolved, demonstrating the entire process of the war at a time flow rate of 20 times. Of course, there is a large area on the outer edge of the battlefield that is dark, which is an area that federal combat units have never set foot on.
The two watched in silence until the entire battle was over and the 9th Army surrendered.
Crassus saw no problem with the 20 times flow rate. To him, this was considered a deliberately slowed down speed. However, the little princess looked down silently, which made Crassus look at him differently.
"How is it? Did you see anything?" Crassus asked.
Hathaway thought and said slowly: "The key to the victory or defeat of the battle is the four giant beam cannons, one big, three small and four. Especially the big one, which is almost as powerful as the main gun of a battleship, and the small one is as powerful as the main gun of a battleship. Patrol guns. These are weapons that should not appear on the planet. Their appearance brings one-sided killing on the battlefield, and is also the main reason for the collapse of the morale of the frontline troops. Otherwise, we can continue to compete with light years, and their Although the number of tanks is large, but the quality is not good, our victory rate is still higher."
Crassus nodded and said: "According to past data, Lightyear's warriors are not complete war machines. Their combat power will drop sharply when the battle damage reaches a certain level. Although they have not collapsed, they are almost there. Originally, the war of attrition If it continues for another hour or two, it is possible that this threshold will be triggered, but there are no ifs in war. Apart from that, what else can be seen?"
"Lightyear's command is very precise. Every big move hits our vital points, or is at the key node of our deployment. Maybe there is a traitor within us?"
Crassus glanced at her appreciatively and said: "I don't think there will be a traitor among us, even if it's Kun, he's just a little stupid, a little lazy, doesn't like to use his brain, and doesn't have a big picture. Other than that, Apart from that, he doesn’t have many shortcomings. But he is a principled person and will not betray the interests of the Federation. On the other hand, on this damn planet, even if there is a traitor, there is no way to pass the news to the other party. "
After a pause, Crassus said: "If there is no traitor, some things will not make sense. Looking at Guangnian's movements, it is like he has a pair of God's eyes and can see every corner on the battlefield. He has the eyes of God. ?"
The little princess's heart tightened slightly and she said nothing.
In fact, Crassus already had the answer and did not need her answer. He continued: "To a certain extent, it can be said that there is! Don't forget that Lightyear has made incredible achievements in biotechnology. The mysterious creatures in their tanks It is still a mystery to us. The top scientific team in the Federation has not even found a reliable research idea until now. Moreover, according to past intelligence records, Lightyear has obvious signs of manipulating local native life. .”
"So after analyzing this, even if there is not enough direct evidence, we can almost draw a conclusion." Crassus said with a vague smile on his face: "There must be something, or something, on this planet. It's some magical creature we don't know about that is helping him, and maybe it has wisdom beyond imagination."
"Isn't this impossible? We have explored more than 2,000 light-years and have not found intelligent life." Hathaway said.
"Maybe I'm wrong. It doesn't have the wisdom to develop into a civilization. However, regardless of whether it has wisdom or not, it should be the key help it gave Lightyear, similar to the help of the Eye of God. So now our question is, How to find it. And based on existing data analysis, its most likely hiding place..."
"...It's the storm clouds!"
Hathaway said: "Even if we know it is in the storm clouds, there is nothing we can do, right? In addition, can any living thing really survive there? The instantaneous temperature of an ion lightning storm can reach hundreds of millions of degrees, right?"
"The universe is incredibly magical, and we have only explored a small corner of the Milky Way. To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if we encounter life that can survive in the blue sun."
"So what do we do now?"
Crassus smiled slightly and said: "Dr. Ben Turk's team has developed a weapon that can help us locate life forms in storm clouds. As long as we can find its location, we have many methods that we can try. Of course, the simplest way is antimatter bombs. Even ion storms cannot be compared with antimatter annihilation."
