Chapter 113

In the official communication letter between the two galaxies this time, the central army of the seven galaxies headed by Ankru lowered their posture very low, and first solemnly apologized for their behavior of blocking the waterway last time, and then explained in detail The reasons, from the evidence of Lin Jingheng's presence in the Eighth Galaxy leaked from the Pirates Glory Legion, to the cause and effect of the Alliance's questioning that he was suspected of colluding with the pirates if he left without saying goodbye, are all very clear.

"Ankelu said that the Central Army of the Seventh Galaxy was only following orders. When they blocked the waterway, they didn't know that the pirates from the Anti-Ukraine Society were approaching and almost caused serious consequences." Lin Jingheng stretched out his hand and waved the page of the reader, and said to Chief Edward "They want to make some compensation for that," he said.

The chief had just finished reading the government's monthly financial report, and was restless because his tailbone hurt from the huge military expenditure. At this time, he heard the word "compensation". ?”

As the chairman of the special committee, Lu Bixing hastily coughed forcefully beside him, signaling the chief to pay attention to his personal qualities.

Chief Edward came back to his senses, and worked his poor, rusty brain with difficulty: "This... he said so, it is not necessarily an excuse. Although the Central Army blocked the road at the time, it did not do anything, and after the withdrawal of the troops It was discovered that there were anti-Ukraine pirates approaching the eight galaxies, and they even went around and kicked their asses—by the way, they didn’t say...Since it was ordered by the alliance, why did they suddenly retreat?"

"By the way, Ankelu claimed that he only wanted to get the Anti-Ukraine Society out of the seventh galaxy at the time, and he didn't want to take orders from the alliance, so he just put on a show." Lin Jingheng said lightly, "And just now When he acted as a roadblock, Ye Lifu, the former head of the Little Hummingbird Fortress of the Alliance, accidentally committed suicide, and leaked the evidence that the Eden Management Committee framed General Lu Xin, including a bunch of evidence they forged, and illegally used Eden to micro-stimulate the people, Inducing public opinion and the opinion of the national jury, etc., most of the central armies in various places are Lu Xin’s old troops, and they announced their separation from the alliance on the spot. Ankelu was happy to advance and retreat with his old comrades, so he withdrew his troops.”

After Lin Jingheng finished speaking, he found that all the elderly people in the conference room were staring at him blankly.

Chief Edward was stunned for a while, then murmured: "So...they didn't wrong him, but deliberately framed him...Why? How can he be so sinful that others can't bear it?"

The one-eyed eagle slammed the table, stood up suddenly and went out.

Lin Jingheng's gaze was slightly lowered, as if he was watching the hem of the one-eyed eagle flying up, and he seemed to be letting himself go.

He didn't answer, and followed the crowd in silence for a moment, then rolled his eyelids, and said indifferently, "I'm sorry, everyone laughed at these shitty things about the alliance."

Lu Bixing was the only one among these people who was able to talk and was young enough to have nothing to do with Lu Xin. Seeing that everyone was not in the mood, he quickly sorted out his thoughts: "Before collecting more information, just from On the surface, I think this passage makes sense. So what does General An want?"

"Geographically speaking, the connection between the seven and eight galaxies is a little closer than that of the six and seven galaxies, and the direction adjacent to the six galaxies is the territory of the Anti-Ukraine Society. Ankru is somewhat powerless. Now the alliance is torn apart, everywhere In the scuffle, he showed his favor to us in order to seek an alliance." Lin Jingheng said, "Including but not limited to connecting the intranet of the seven or eight galaxies, opening up the waterways between the two sides, signing a military mutual assistance agreement, resuming trade, etc., to show sincerity, he also said, He knows that the life of the eight galaxies is difficult, and he is willing to support us with supplies."

Lu Bixing asked suspiciously: "It's so good, help the poor?"

"That's not true. He said that he could donate a batch of medical equipment as an apology for blocking the waterway, but if he wants other things, it should be regarded as an inter-galactic loan with interest. The specific terms can be discussed at that time, but in advance It is stated that the interest rate during wartime cannot be too low, and the eight galaxies will be returned slowly after production resumes. Of course, supplies are only for civilian use, and military supplies are not given.”

Lu Bixing nodded slowly.

The "not low" in diplomatic rhetoric is probably similar to usury, but in this period, it is not too much to ask for usury.Ankruti's conditions can be said to be reasonable, clearly stated what they want, and clearly marked the price, which is a bit like "ugly words first". At the same time, he subtly expressed his trust in Lin Jingheng and the eighth galaxy ——If the so-called "government" of the eighth galaxy disbands in three or two days, then all the "usury" and "low interest" are nonsense.

Can't fault it.

"It sounds real, more reliable than a free lunch," Lu Bixing asked Lin Jingheng, "What do you think?"

Lin Jingheng glanced at him.

Only then did Lu Bixing come to his senses, and he asked a superfluous question—because General Lin has now changed from the role of "making money to support his family" in the eighth galaxy to a big loser.

At the beginning of the robbery business, it was profitable. Later, as the war situation became more and more chaotic and the war became more and more tragic, "war support war" became unreliable.The eighth galaxy can only stumble and develop its own military industry, and the military industry is like a black hole that spends money. Those recruits who keep pouring in and will not be able to train for a while will have to pay a lot of cost.

As a "prodigal family", Lin Jingheng didn't rush directly when he learned of the possible source of income, which already showed his attitude.

The chief raised his head and asked, "General Lin doesn't seem to trust Ankelu's sincerity. Is it because there is something wrong with this person's character?"

"It's hard to say, I don't have much contact with Ankelu, and I don't know much about him. He was transferred out early, and then he went directly to the Central Army of the Seventh Galaxy. For so many years, he hasn't caused any trouble, and he hasn't made any trouble. He didn’t make any achievements either, the only impression I have of him is that he is popular, and this matter mainly depends on the chief’s intentions.” Lin Jingheng paused, and then said, “But I’m more used to guessing others maliciously, so there are two things I need to bring it up for your reference—"

"First, when Ankelu blocked the waterway, the situation was urgent. We have tried to establish contact with him many times, but the other party ignored them all; second, if everything he said is true, then we are too lucky Well, I really don't have much experience with 'good luck' stuff."

In the eighth galaxy, isn't it just that he has no experience with "good luck"?Birds of a feather flock together, and everyone here is a senior unlucky person. Everyone gathered together to watch this big pie hanging in the sky that was about to crumble. It was very frightening, and it was very unpleasant, so they had to leave the meeting one after another in shame.

Taking advantage of no one around, Lu Bixing slipped to Lin Jingheng's side, pinched his legs and thumped his back: "The general ran back and forth between the war zone and Capital Star, it's hard work."

Lin Jingheng was still thinking about Lu Xin, thinking that if that person knew that he was wronged more than 30 years after his death, and brought such a result, he didn't know how he would feel. Seeing Lu Bixing, his eyes softened a little. She raised her hand to brush the hair on the young man's forehead, and rubbed the corner of his eyes with the back of her hand...but five seconds later, his tenderness collapsed, and Lin Jingheng grabbed Lu Bixing's paw: "Where can I touch it?" ?”

Lu Bixing took advantage of the situation and hooked his palm: "General, don't worry so much. Isn't the blasting device at the jump point installed? This time, the new blasting device can be controlled remotely, so you don't have to run over to launch the missile yourself. In case Anke Lu has bad intentions, so we will separate him by the Chu River and Han border. Then you will be completely me..."

Lin Jingheng glanced at him.

Lu Bixing changed his words without changing his face: "...we are people from the eighth galaxy. If you don't pay your debts, you turn around and run away. How exciting."

Lin Jingheng heard that Lu Xin's own son was thinking about breaking with human society all day long, and plotting to cheat his old department, planning to not pay back the money owed.

Why don't parents set up a qualification certificate?Let these people live blindly with their eyes closed, and they don't care what they give birth to.

"Mr. Lu, are you saying something that a teacher by example should say?"

Teacher Lu spread his hands: "I hate that my child can't be caught by a wolf, and I can't bear that I can't be caught by a hooligan."

The trapped hooligan loosened the collar of his shirt and said, "Get lost."

The eighth galaxy did not give a clear reply for a long time. A few days later, Ankelu spoke again, wanting to visit the eighth galaxy Venus in person.

Lin Jingheng responded politely to him and welcomed him as a guest. However, military mechs are absolutely not allowed to enter the eighth galaxy. The starship on board cannot be armed, including guns. The guards cannot exceed ten people. Accept the security check.

An Kelu received this unfriendly response, turned his face away from him on the spot, skipped over the official spokesperson of the Seven Galaxy, said that he would accept the invitation shirtless, and that he must take a shower and shave before coming, lest the chest hair is too long and blind Lin The young master's delicate dog eyes—but this uncivilized speech was withdrawn by the Seven Star System after a few minutes. The Seven Star System Central Army stated that they would strictly abide by the requirements of their neighbors and look forward to the meeting with the Venus.

During the special period, there were not so many red tapes. Four days later, Ankelu really came alone, without even ten guards. He only brought two secretaries with him, responsible for paperwork and his daily life.

Although Ankelu himself was dirty and rude, he was meticulous in his handling of affairs. When he arrived in the eighth galaxy, he parked his starship outside and handed over the medical supplies they brought to the eighth galaxy. The Galactic Self-Defense Forces, then offered to ask the chief to borrow his car.After entering the Eighth Galaxy, he did not go straight to the new capital Venus, but stayed on Gloria Star for a long time, wearing an isolation suit, and placed a bouquet of flowers on the scorched earth of the former capital of the Eighth Galaxy to express his condolences. Then he followed Chief Edward back to Galaxy City.

When the chief was in the Union Parliament, he was pissed off by the hypocritical politicians. It was rare to see a bold and unrestrained Ankelu. He had a good chat with him and had a meeting all day. What kind of character, I almost regarded him as a friend, if it wasn't for Lin Jingheng's cold face, I almost agreed to pay a return visit on the spot.

A group of people completed the bargaining very efficiently. On behalf of seven or eight galaxies, Ankelu and Chief Edward signed a military mutual assistance agreement and the first batch of material loan agreement. An interstellar supply station will be built in the place to connect the seven or eight inter-galaxy channels.

Then the chief arranged for Ankelu to visit Galaxy City, and just walked to the square.

Ankelu looked at the huge stone statue of Lu Xin, and seemed a little stunned. He rubbed his eyes, managed to maintain a smile, and said incoherently to Chief Edward: "Wotto also had one, and then they removed the stone statue... This... is this General Lu Xin? Am I right?"

The chief patted him on the shoulder.

Ankelu nodded, his cheeks were tense, as if he was clenching his teeth, he opened his mouth several times to say something, but he pursed his lips again. He lowered his head and raised his head several times, as if he didn't know how to face this old boss Similarly, the eye circles slowly turned red, and his eyeballs were clouded with blood. Ankelu stood stiffly under the stone statue, unable to speak for a full 5 minutes.

All the people who had followed Lu Xin and participated in the eighth galaxy struggle stood silently with him.

The one-eyed eagle had inexplicably sore eye sockets, walked away unbearably, lit a cigarette and hid himself inside. When he turned his head, he saw Lin Jingheng standing aside expressionlessly, and Zhanlu in human form followed him like an ordinary guard—— Lin Jingheng and Ankelu hated each other, and the two had already rubbed each other once when they handed over supplies at the border of the seven or eight galaxies. Therefore, he did not participate in the reception, but followed along with the chief's guard not far or near , always beware of Ankelu's schemes.

The one-eyed eagle said: "Since we haven't bombed the transition point, we must communicate with the outside world. The Central Army of the Seventh Galaxy is better than the pirates and the lackeys of the Alliance."

Lin Jingheng: "Otherwise, would he still be standing here alive?"

The one-eyed eagle was a little helpless: "I said, have you been used to singing bad faces all these years, and the way to play has narrowed?"

Lin Jingheng relaxed his standing posture, folded his arms on his chest, leaned against the wall of the alley outside the square, and said softly: "Someone has to pour cold water, and someone has to take care of the villain's heart. Besides, I proposed at the meeting that day The other two questions, the other party has not given a reasonable explanation - Zhanlu, send a message to the chief's personal terminal, asking him to take the opportunity to talk to Ankrut, saying that we want to see the full set that Ye Lifu leaked after committing suicide What's the matter, don't listen to the transcribed version... Maybe he wants to connect seven or eight galaxies to the Internet, let him hand over a long-distance communication key to communicate with other galaxies."

The one-eyed eagle suddenly asked: "Where's Lu Bixing?"

"I went to inspect the satellite for resettling immigrants on behalf of the chief."

The one-eyed eagle squinted, looked at Ankelu's crooked back, and said in a low voice: "Everyone knows what the stone statue of Lu Xin means to him, but he doesn't know."

"I'm about to tell you about this." Lin Jingheng glanced around calmly to confirm that there were no outsiders nearby, and then he said vaguely, "Zhan Lu, encrypted document No. '081' is the document about The results of his brain scan..."

The one-eyed eagle realized what he was talking about and turned to look at him.

Lin Jingheng: "Smash it."

Zhan Lu asked: "Sir, after the relevant documents are shredded, I will not remember that I have scanned them..."

Lin Jingheng interrupted him: "Well, let's break it."

As soon as he finished speaking, the pupils of Zhanlu's eyes that looked like real people suddenly expanded, revealing an inorganic background, and countless complicated codes flashed.

The one-eyed eagle looked at him in surprise.

"Brother Lu, from now on, you know this matter, I know it, don't let it flow into the ears of the third person." Lin Jingheng's voice was very low.

The one-eyed eagle looked at Ankelu, then at him again: "You can't believe it..."

Lin Jingheng shook her head slowly: "I've been thinking about one thing for the past few days."

"what?"

"When I went to investigate the underground channel leading to the outside of the eighth galaxy, I found an illegal transition point left by Lu Xin in the asteroid belt, code-named 'surprise'. There is no record left on Lu Shang.” Lin Jingheng said softly, “When the top ten famous swords were designed, their spiritual threshold was extremely high, and few people could match them. Zhan Lu has always been used by him. After being an admiral, Zhanlu has been refurbished and upgraded, added his gene lock, and became his exclusive mech... Who deleted Zhanlu's record? If he deleted it himself, why, who is he guarding against?"

The one-eyed eagle couldn't keep up for a while, the soot fell and forgot to flick.

"I can feel that before Lu Xin's accident, he lost trust in many people." Lin Jingheng glanced at An Kelu with deep eyes. They had already worshiped their common spiritual idol in the square. Back to the government administration building, Lin Jingheng snapped his fingers at Zhanlu, motioning him to follow, "I don't believe in anyone, cooperation is fine, but we have to be vigilant—Brother Lu, unless one person dies, we can't make a conclusion ah."

The one-eyed eagle shivered slightly and was speechless.

After signing the agreement, Ankelu received an urgent notice from the Seven Galaxy System that night. He learned that there was another change in the Anti-Uganda Society entrenched in the Seven Galaxy System. He didn't even have time to eat dinner, so he left in a hurry and went back to preside over the defense.

Lin Jingheng asked Turan to escort him to the junction of the two galaxies, handed over Ankelu to his own soldiers, and watched them leave before returning to his command.

Ankelu threw a bunch of interstellar contracts to the secretary to sort out, claiming that he was going to rest, and retreated left and right.

Along with the special key, he connected the remote communication leading to the Angel City Fortress.

"The immigration of the eighth galaxy has been completed. Judging from the defense distribution of the guard posts along the way, I guess they have installed explosive devices on the outer jump point. Lin Jingheng is cautious and suspicious, and he cannot be allowed to seal the eighth galaxy. Secretary Wang Boss, I'm afraid I won't be able to save some money this time, what can you give me? I don't want a bad promise."
