    Chapter 142 Minsk

    Yi Lexiang looked at the Charno uniforms worn by everyone with a wry smile. Obviously, if you want to enter this heavily guarded city, you must first solve the clothing problem.  At this time, the only person in the entire team wearing civilian clothes was Xiong Jianming, who joined later.  Xiong Jianming seemed to be aware of this. He glanced hesitantly at the soldiers who were still wary of him, wondering whether he should offer to enter the city to get replacement clothes for everyone.  He didn't want these soldiers to misunderstand him.

    "Xiong Jianming, I'm afraid you have to venture into the city to get us some casual clothes and come back." Yi Lexiang smiled slightly and said to Xiong Jianming.  Along the way, he had sensed the soldiers' resistance to this former veteran, which was normal.  The soldiers in the squad were not only comrades who shared life and death with each other, but also experienced a life-and-death escape together.  This kind of trust established between life and death undoubtedly made them reject Xiong Jianming.  However, his mental strength could sense that Xiong Jianming was sincerely helping him and others, so he still trusted this respectable veteran compared to other people's doubts.

    Xiong Jianming nodded, with a simple and honest smile on his rough face.  Yi Lexiang's trust in him made him feel warm in his heart.  "No problem, but I can only bring back a few pieces of clothing." Yi Lexiang nodded. It would be too suspicious for a person to walk into the mountainous area with clothing for two hundred people.  As long as there are a few pieces of clothing and a few trips back and forth, you can change all the clothes on everyone's body, and there is no need to rush.

    Under the gaze of everyone, Xiong Jianming¡¯s tall body gradually disappeared around the corner of the hill.  "General, do you trust him so much?" A Marine guarding Yi Lexiang couldn't help but ask, "Don't be so nervous. Xiong Jianming was once our comrade. We must believe that he has great influence on the country and the army.  Loyalty." Yi Lexiang explained a few words. He could understand that after experiencing a suspicious ambush, the trust in people in these soldiers' hearts dropped to the extreme.  The death of nearly 20,000 close comrades was a heavy blow to everyone, and more importantly, the ambushed warships were likely to come from behind.  Compared with these ordinary soldiers, Yi Lexiang's heart was filled with suppressed anger and regret.  He knew very well that the target of the ambushers was him, and the soldiers who died for them died because of him.  It was my own negligence that caused such a big loss. I clearly felt that something was wrong but did not take any measures.  Thinking of this, Yi Lexiang's heart felt as painful as a knife. For the first time, he felt the pain caused by the war.

    "I am not living for myself now. I am carrying the wronged souls of tens of thousands of soldiers who died in vain. Sooner or later, I will have to settle this blood debt with Yang Haojun."  He was certain that Yang Haojun, who had always regarded him as a thorn in his side, was the one who planned all of this, although he didn't know why Yang Haojun wanted to plot against him in this way.  But none of this matters anymore.

    Yi Lexiang looked at the orange-red atmosphere of Planet Tesno III, and his cold eyes seemed to see the hateful face of Yang Haojun of Capital Planet through the thick atmosphere.  Blood debts can only be repaid with blood.  Not for myself, but for the more than 10,000 souls who died unjustly.  Yang Haojun, you must live well and wait for my sword of revenge to pierce your chest.  No matter how difficult it is, I will use your blood to pay tribute to the soldiers who sacrificed for me.  Yi Lexiang swore secretly, and the coldness and ruthlessness emanating from his body made the soldiers around him shiver secretly.  The killing intent in the air not only did not chill the soldiers' hearts, but instead made everyone's blood boil.  No matter who you are, what awaits you will be the flames of revenge from all the officers and men of the Ninth Fleet.

    After waiting for about an hour, Xiong Jianming¡¯s figure reappeared in everyone¡¯s sight, carrying several large bags in his hands and a transparent plastic bucket filled with water on his back.  The hot weather had already caused everyone to drink up the small amount of water brought from the gathering area, but there was still a small amount of dry food left.  After putting on some old clothes brought back by Xiong Jianming and replenishing their physical strength, Yi Lexiang and several marines got up again and walked out of the hiding place with Xiong Jianming into the bustling urban area.  "Old Xiong, where did you get these clothes? Why do they smell like sweat?" Maybe it was Yi Lexiang's enlightenment that worked, or maybe it was Xiong Jianming's actions that finally won the trust of the soldiers.  , a Marine couldn't help but make a joke about Xiong Jianming.

    "I got it from the scrapyard." Xiong Jianming smiled sheepishly. He had no money.  He could only obtain the clothes he needed through this method. Even the bucket filled with water was picked up by someone else who had just thrown it away.

    Yi Lexiang patted his head. He had just asked Xiong Jianming to get clothes, but he forgot that it costs money to get these things. Looking at Xiong Jianming's embarrassment, he probably spent a lot of effort to get these things.

    "Don't the government provide monthly subsidies to retired veterans? You don'tIt must be so difficult!  "A soldier asked strangely.

    "After the Imperials came, the original Charno coins were invalidated. Now I can only get corresponding rewards by working for them, but I" Xiong Jianming did not continue, but everyone understood what he meant.  .  He doesn't want to work for the Empire!  Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but stand in awe of this nearly forty-year-old man.  Although this thing seems trivial, but looking at the people coming and going on the street, I am afraid that there are very few people who can actually do this.  Most people chose to surrender in order to make a living.

    Walking into Minsk, it¡¯s not as glamorous as it looks from the outside. The war that happened some time ago obviously seriously damaged this bustling city.  Many houses in the city were hit by artillery fire, collapsed metal houses could be seen everywhere, and some streets were still completely impassable.  High-explosive bombs from ground tanks formed huge craters on the all-metal ground. Strange iron lumps formed by the melted and cooled metal solidified on the edges of the huge craters. Some craters were covered with simple steel plates to facilitate civilian use.  The transport truck passes.  From time to time, heavily armed imperial patrols walked back and forth on the streets. Above the patrols' heads, the round detection probes of two short-wing combat helicopters emitted red light, as if they were scanning the crowd like a giant, monster eye.

    "Currently, only some Pan-Interstellar Minerals companies and hover vehicles approved by the Imperial Security Bureau can obtain the right to use air passages. In addition to taking the Imperial public transportation system, ordinary people can only travel on the ground." Xiong Jianming walked.  While explaining in a low voice to Yi Lexiang and others.

    Yi Lexiang nodded. No wonder there were so many pedestrians on the streets of Minsk. The streets that were originally used for leisure were now crowded with people coming and going. Everyone's face was confused and uneasy.  Some young people secretly looked at the imperial patrols with a hint of resentment in their eyes. When the patrols turned their eyes towards them, they hurriedly lowered their heads unwillingly to avoid the contemptuous and scrutinizing eyes of these imperial men.  The whole city was filled with a commotion of oppressive silence.

    Following Xiong Jianming¡¯s twists and turns in the crowded streets, Yi Lexiang and others finally found the dilapidated-looking abandoned house in a narrow street.  The war destroyed the original administrative system, and the abandoned place without automatic cleaning trucks now exudes an unpleasant smell. Apparently this is where Xiong Jianming obtained his clothes.  Mountains of old garbage were mixed with tattered clothing and electronic equipment. Xiong Jianming probably spent a lot of energy just searching for wearable clothes in this pile of rags.

    "You first find some wearable clothes and send them back to the hiding place, so that our people can sneak into the city first." Yi Lexiang looked around and pointed at what looked like a farmer's market covered with awnings not far away.  Jianzhuang said, "Everyone will gather there for the time being. I'll look around to see if I can contact the underground resistance organization or our hidden agents." Several soldiers who were already looking through their clothes nodded, in a building completely occupied by the Empire.  It doesn't matter whether there is anyone protecting Yi Lexiang in the city. It is impossible for them to resist the heavily armed imperial soldiers with their bare hands.

    Yi Lexiang turned around and blended into the crowded crowd, his eyes constantly searching the metal walls for any secret marks left by the agents.  With his left hand, he casually rolled up his sleeve to cover the wrist-based optical brain on his wrist. Under the cover of the sleeve, the small red light on one side of the wrist-based optical brain kept flashing.  This is the internal connection code of the members of the secret society. It constantly emits a faint spiritual power coordinate to the surroundings in a way that is different from modern technology. Only the members of the secret society can sense each other.

    After the Imperials occupy Tesno, they will inevitably cleanse the agent organization and underground resistance organization left by Charno. Yi Lexiang is not sure whether they have deciphered the contact code.  According to Xiong Jianming's description, Charno's underground power was greatly damaged.  Even if the resistance organization still exists, they may have changed the original password.  However, fortunately, Yi Lexiang also has another secret identity: the owner of the ninth level authority of the Akashic Society.  He believed that no matter how arrogant and dictatorial the empire was, it could only adopt a tolerant attitude in the face of a pan-interstellar non-military organization like the "Akashic Society" with great power.

    Yi Lexiang walked along the damaged streets until he reached a sparsely populated high-end residential area when a slight vibration came from the wrist-based optical brain on his wrist.  This intact building complex is entirely made of silver alloy metal that is higher-end than the civilian area. Under the strong sunlight of the Tesno sun, the tall silver walls reflect a layer of silver brilliance, and there are beautiful carvings on the walls.  pattern decoration.  The entire residential area was not hit by artillery fire. Apparently, the Imperial Alliance deliberately avoided this area during the siege.  The clothes worn by the people coming and going are obviously much better than those worn by ordinary citizens on the crowded streets just now. From time to time, there areSuspension vehicles passed over Yi Lexiang's head.

    "Weird!" Yi Lexiang secretly muttered in his heart. The first time he came to Minsk, he looked at the luxurious residential area here with confusion, which was very different from other places. If he hadn't seen the chaos outside and the city that had been baptized by war, he would have almost thought that he was  Back to the central city of Munro: Gamma.
