    Chapter 144: Depressing Contact

    "Government troops?" A frivolous young man was waiting for him in the room. "Since the last base in the mountains was captured by the Empire, the government troops have never been seen in the entire Tesno. Some of them  People became our comrades, and some became corpses. Well, my friend, your appearance really surprised me."

    Yi Lexiang was very unaccustomed to the young man's aristocratic way of speaking. In his impression, the underground organizations seemed to be rough-looking, passionate men, with a little bit of slovenliness and impoliteness.

    "Let me guess, according to my friends in the Imperial Intelligence Bureau, they have been tracking a group of people falling from the sky these days. It should be you and your friends."

    Yi Lexiang did not expect that the people who had just contacted the underground organization would give him a big surprise. Apparently, the Empire people had indeed discovered the self-destructing survival shuttle and were still tracking all of them.  If what this young man said is accurate, at least those Imperial people should not have discovered his identity yet.  "Yes, I need to talk to your person in charge."

    "Now the Imperial spies are pervasive, and many people have surrendered to those hateful Imperials and become their lackeys. How can I trust you?" The young man pouted and shook his head, fiddling with the table in his hands.  semi-automatic dead-bolt pistol.

    Yi Lexiang was angry and amused as he watched this pretentious young man show off in front of him. Ever since he left Anpiao Astronomy, he had clearly sensed that in the mezzanine of the wall, two old men in their fifties were secretly observing him.  .  He slowly raised his left arm and pressed a few times on the wrist-based optical brain with his right hand.  For the sake of safety, he only activated the general password just now. If things go wrong, this can at least relax the opponent's vigilance.

    In the doubtful eyes of the young people, the personal identification system hidden in the metal wall has risen from green security warning to blue and continues to rise.  This means that the visitor's confidentiality authority is quite high, at least much higher than that of everyone in this room.  Several cries of surprise came from the wall. It was obvious that no matter what the identity of the young man outside was, such authority was completely trustworthy. After all, Lieutenant Colonel Li Shaojun, the head of Minsk's secret service, only had blue authority.  A secret door opened silently in the metal wall, and the two old men whom Yi Lexiang had just sensed walked out of the metal wall one after the other.

    "Hello, young man. I am the person in charge of the underground resistance organization Minsk." The tall man in his fifties walking in front waved his hand to the surprised young man to signal that he did not need to continue acting.  Yes, there is no problem with the other party¡¯s identity.

    "What should we call you?" Another slightly shorter old man looked at Yi Lexiang with twinkling eyes.  It seems that this young man should not have such high authority at his age.  However, this identification code must be completed through genetic binding, and cheating is completely impossible.

    "Mu Yi" Without thinking, Yi Lexiang reported the pseudonym he used when he was in Starfleet Academy.  It's not that he did this for his own safety or because he didn't trust the other party. Those who can persist in resisting the imperial army in such an environment have no doubt about their loyalty to Charno.  It's just that Yi Lexiang's identity is too sensitive, and his military rank is too far away from these militia-like organizations.  He didn't want to be protected as a precious creature.

    "Mu Yi?" The two old men looked at each other. This name was probably the other's pseudonym.  The tall old man seemed to have a more straightforward personality, and a hint of displeasure immediately appeared on his face.  No matter what noble status this young man originally had, he was just an ordinary person who fell into the land occupied by the empire at the moment.  At this time, you still have to keep your identity secret. Do you have any doubts about people like you who are fighting behind enemy lines?  Of course, the old man regarded Yi Lexiang as the descendant of a powerful figure at the top of the Republic.  This is not surprising.  Everyone who meets Yi Lexiang for the first time has a hard time imagining him as a general commanding thousands of troops. He is too young.  In particular, the unprepossessing face that always has a smiling expression does not have any majesty or momentum of a superior person at all. It is no different from ordinary young people of his age. It is extremely ordinary.

    The shorter old man knew the temper of his old friend, so he quickly took over the conversation, "Mu Yi, right? I want to know how you found our hiding place?"

    "Well I found this place through a friend." Yi Lexiang hesitated. Since the secret society did not want to get involved in the struggle between countries, it would be better not to mention Yaris's name.

    Now, even the short old man had a sulky look on his face. The hiding place of this underground resistance organization had just been changed.  Someone will come to your door right now.??.  Not to mention whether the other party did this because they did not trust themselves and others. This was likely to involve a serious leak that directly affected the personal safety of hundreds of members of the resistance organization.

    The young man who had been standing aside to receive Yi Lexiang took a few steps forward and whispered a few words into the ears of the two old men.

    "The official car of Siatus Pan-Interstellar United Mining Company?" The two old men glanced at Yi Lexiang in surprise at the same time. This young man who looked young really had great powers.  The organization had just received a tip that the Imperials had discovered a crashed survival shuttle on the other side of the mountain.  Today, this man not only traveled through the maze-like mountainous area, but also directly contacted the senior personnel of the mineral company.

    ??Siatus Pan-Interstellar United Minerals Company is not an ordinary enterprise.  This interstellar giant-like enterprise operates more than nearly one-third of the mineral resources in the human star domain, integrating mining, transportation and sales.  It is said that this company, which was founded in the early stages of interstellar development, holds the actual mining rights of a large number of resource stars and has its own administrative stars and private armed forces.  Many interstellar empires, including those of the three major alliances, maintain good relations with it.  When the Imperials captured Minsk, they even deliberately avoided the senior staff residential area in Siatus, which shows the deep background of this company.

    "Since friend Mu Yi has such a profound background, why should he ask us?" The displeasure on the tall old man's face became even stronger, and his original suspicion that this young man had a good background deepened.

    Yi Lexiang smiled bitterly and repeated his idea of ??contacting the spy organization.  Even in Charno, a free country that advocates democracy, conflicts between those in power, the powerful and the common people have always existed.  Ordinary people seem to have a natural rejection of special classes.  Faced with the rejection of the members of the resistance organization in front of him, it may be more convenient to contact the government's secret service.

    Originally, after listening to the young man's words, the two old men thought that the man in front of them who called himself Mu Yi had obtained the address of themselves and others by contacting the secret service organization through the relationship of Siatus Mineral Company.  But from what he meant, it seemed that this was not the case.  The two looked at each other, and it was clear that the power of this pan-interstellar company was much greater than they originally estimated.  Yi Lexiang looked at the two people who kept exchanging glances inexplicably. He didn't understand what his words just reminded these two senior leaders of the underground resistance organization who seemed to be full of vague hostility.

    The two motioned to the young man to continue receiving Yi Lexiang and then walked out of the closed room side by side.  Yi Lexiang was confused. No matter how good his temper was, he was still a little angry at the moment. These members of the resistance organization had been behind enemy lines for too long, and their brains were also showing off.  He was eager to know information from the outside world at this moment, and there were more than two hundred comrades waiting for him anxiously in the crisis-ridden city.  Not only were they hostile to themselves, they also left themselves here like this.  Yi Lexiang suppressed the anger in his heart and sat silently on the wooden high-backed chair in the room, completely ignoring the young man's side-stepping remarks.

    About half an hour later, two old men accompanied an ordinary-looking middle-aged man into the closed room.  The visitor looked Yi Lexiang up and down, with a look of disbelief but uncertainty on his face, as if he recognized Yi Lexiang's true identity.  Yi Lexiang secretly glanced at the visitor and extended his right hand in a friendly manner, "Mu Yi, a fugitive."

    "Li Shaojun, the temporary head of the Republic's Secret Service in Minsk." Li Shaojun subconsciously wiped his hands on his clothes and held Yi Lexiang's hand with some excitement.  This was the first time he had seen his comrades from Charno since the fall of the Tesno planetary system, and he was also the commander of the ninth main fleet, which was hailed as the 'Light of Victory' by the people.  But after he calmed down a little, a puzzled expression appeared on his face.  How could a commander of the main fleet come to the enemy-occupied area? Moreover, Yi Lexiang's clothes were in tatters and exuded a strange smell, and he looked embarrassed.  Fortunately, as a well-trained agent, he was not so stupid as to think that the Kador defense line had been breached by the enemy army.  However, the empire's military transport ships have indeed been coming and going frequently in the past few days, which seems to indicate that they have another major military operation. Is this why Lieutenant General Yi is here?  This seems a bit fanciful.  How could the High Command agree to a main fleet commander carrying out such a dangerous mission?

    Yi Lexiang saw the other party's confusion from Li Shaojun's face, and said with a wry smile: "I was chased here." Li Shaojun nodded subconsciously, but the confusion on his face not only did not lighten, but became more intense.  He didn't quite understand that unless the Ninth Fleet under the general was defeated by the enemy, a fleet commander would not be chased to this point anyway.  Besides, even if the battle is lost, you should evacuate to the star field controlled by Charno. How come you come to Tesno???And the intelligence obtained by his own insiders showed that it seemed that the Empire had just suffered a huge defeat in Kador, with a loss of 300,000 troops.  It was the young general in front of him who commanded this exciting victory.  In just a short period of time, Li Shaojun had already had several thoughts, but the more he thought about it, the more confused he became.  What happened to Kador?
