    Chapter 418 Dialogue

    The soldiers have returned to their comfortable barracks to rest, but Yi Lexiang, as the commander-in-chief, cannot.  He, Chen Yatian, and Xin Qiang were in a small meeting watching the newly received images of the Left Star battlefield.

    The logistics of the Free Army may be the best in the entire galaxy.  Each soldier has his own single room. The room is not big but has all the equipment.  If you are an officer, the room will be larger. The only disadvantage is that they do not live on stable land, but in space.  However, as long as you don¡¯t cancel the virtual animated portrait that obscures the porthole, you won¡¯t even realize it most of the time.  Another drawback is that it is difficult to eat natural food here.  But the soldiers didn't care much about this.  After all, even in peaceful times, it is rare for ordinary people like them to taste food made from natural ingredients.  It is reported that the Logistics Department and the Scientific Research Department are working together to build a space farm. Once completed, the food problem can be solved.  However, this news was not confirmed by higher-level commanders.

    With the support of almost endless resources and the efforts of over-energetic engineering soldiers, everything here is perfect!  Many officers and soldiers are considering whether they can bring their families to this isolated place, and the headquarters is also considering this issue.  The Black Star Area is not Anokhi. Anokki is an ecological planet that can support a limited population.  But the Black Star Area is different. It is surrounded by an empty and void space. The Logistics Department can build more space cities at any time as long as necessary.  To this end, the Logistics Support Department sent a questionnaire to the officers and soldiers' personal computers to consult the officers and soldiers for their opinions.  This matter was approved by Yi Lexiang.  However, the Ministry of Intelligence opposed this. They pointed out that if military families were allowed to stay in the Black Star District, it would be difficult to ensure that there would be no leaks.  Unless, all military family members also practice spiritual mysticism.  This was also included in the questionnaire, and surprisingly, most soldiers held a positive attitude towards this.  Of course, regardless of whether you practice spiritual magic or not, external communications in the Black Star Region will always be closed.

    "Send these to Wu Wei." Yi Lexiang said after reading the final image just sent from the left neighbor star, making slight modifications.

    The images were sent back by spy satellites left behind when the fleet retreated.  Judging from the images, the Barbarian's losses were probably greater than he originally imagined.  However, since the image was taken from a very far distance, it is difficult to determine whether Yang Haojun is the person leading the team this time.

    "I hope that Yang Haojun won't be blown to death so easily." Xin Qiang said bitterly.

    "Probably not." Chen Yatian pointed to the enlarged image and said, "Here and here, these small red dots should be the barbarians who survived the destructive energy of the left neighbor star. If Yang Haojun is really among them, then he  There must be a way to survive.¡±

    "Yang Haojun is here!" Yi Lexiang replied decisively.

    Chen Yatian and Xin Qiang looked at him in confusion. The scene was so chaotic. The destructive energy generated when the Left Neighbor Star finally disintegrated seriously interfered with the spy satellite images. The images were very blurry. They did not understand Yi Lexiang's confidence for a while.  Where did it come from.

    Yi Lexiang moved the image forward for a while, "Look here." He pointed at the three-dimensional projection curtain wall and said, "The main force of the barbarians was clearly moving toward the left neighbor star, but it suddenly stopped." Chen Yatianhe  Xin Qiang observed carefully, and the three-dimensional image projected on the curtain wall showed that not long after the barbarians stopped, they began to retreat rapidly.  "If there is anyone among the barbarians who knows our tactics the most, I think it is Yang Haojun who has held a high-level position in the Charno Military Department. Not only has he held a high-level position in Charno, he has also fought against us many times.  If it were anyone else, the most normal reaction would be to stay where they are and wait for further reconnaissance reports. But they chose to retreat immediately. Based on this alone, it can be concluded that the leader of the barbarians is Yang Haojun. "

    Yi Lexiang smiled and pointed to a small red dot flying at a speed far faster than others, "Maybe, this little red dot is Yang Haojun." Although he was not present, everything was as seen with his own eyes, speculation and facts.  Basically consistent.

    Chen Yatian and Xin Qiang nodded in agreement. Yi Lexiang's analysis made some sense.  These days the Free Army and the Barbarians have clashed many times, and most of the time the Barbarians are in an offensive posture.  Choosing to retreat when the situation is unclear does not seem like the fighting style of the barbarians.

    "Just run away. When the barbarian is defeated, I will definitely capture him to sacrifice the flag for his dead comrades." Xin Qiang slapped his thigh fiercely.

    "I will definitely do it!" Yi Lexiang nodded.  He was still in a daze, and the aftereffects of the huge difference in the curvature of time between the two worlds gave him the illusion of being in a dream.  This feeling has been lingering in my heart.

    "General, I see you are very tired. Do you want to take a rest? I will inform them that the meeting is cancelled."?" Chen Yatian noticed that Yi Lexiang was in a daze.

    "No need," Yi Lexiang shook his head vigorously. This illusory sense of unreality would not affect his judgment.  "There should be results from Wu Wei soon. We need to make some preparations in advance."

    "With this in hand, the position of commander of the coalition forces is not yet certain. What else should be prepared?" Xin Qiang looked at the video record that was still playing and asked in confusion.

    Yi Lexiang and Chen Yatian had unspeakable wry smiles on their faces at the same time.  If only things were that simple.  The problem is that there are many things that are not something you can get if you have the ability.  It is difficult for the simple-minded Xin Qiang to realize this.  Take the competition for the position of commander-in-chief of the coalition forces as an example. It involves various forces, multi-party games, and weights. It is really difficult to predict who will win this position in the end.

    "General, what should we do if an accident occurs?" It was Chen Yatian who spoke.  Wu Wei is absent. Under normal circumstances, he will temporarily replace Wu Wei to exercise the powers of chief of staff.  He must be prepared for every eventuality.  "Are we still joining the coalition?"

    "So what if we don't join? If we want to get the commander-in-chief of the coalition, Wu Wei must show our trump cards to other member forces. New starships and biological mechas, just because of the existence of these two things, others will not let us  Just let it go. Don¡¯t participate? I¡¯m afraid the first target of the coalition¡¯s crusade will be the Free Army.¡±

    "They dare! If we run to the Black Star District, will they still be able to find us?"

    "The Free Army can hide, but what should Charno do?" Yi Lexiang asked Xin Qiang.

    "This" Xin Qiang was speechless for a moment, "They can't do anything to Charno." He was not sure about this, and there was a bit of hesitation in his voice.

    "What is the purpose of our efforts? Isn't it just to protect Charno and our motherland? If not, we wouldn't even have to wade through this muddy water. We might as well hide in the Black Star District and wait for everything to settle.  , come out and clean up the mess. The key is that we can't do this. The existence of the Free Army is not to protect ourselves, but to protect our country."

    Xin Qiang was stunned for a moment and lowered his head dejectedly.  He is not afraid of fighting, nor is he afraid of death, but when it comes to politics, Xin Qiang feels both confused and overwhelmed.  Xin Qiang is not stupid, otherwise Yi Lexiang would not let him command such an important armed force of the God of War.  However, he is open-minded and straightforward by nature, and has a natural rejection of political struggles for power and intrigues on the battlefield. His personality is destined to make him a fierce general who charges into battles and sieges cities, but not a general.  A general who assesses the situation and coordinates the overall situation.  "There is no explanation for the interstellar war between the three major alliances. Now there is an extra barbarian. It is really a headache." Xin Qiang wailed tirelessly.

    ¡°There is also the threat of ¡®evil creatures¡¯.¡± Chen Yatian reminded at the side.

    "" Xin Qiang looked like he was silently asking the sky, and looked up to the sky with a long sigh, "You guys are busy, I'm going to see how my boys are doing. The battle images of the ghost mecha brought them a lot of excitement.  , I have to keep a close eye on them to prevent them from developing any problems." As he spoke, Xin Qiang turned and left the room.  Looking at Xin Qiang's disappearing figure, Yi Lexiang and Chen Yatian looked at each other and laughed.  No matter how difficult the future is, we must face it directly. Instead of worrying about it, it is better to face it calmly.

    "General, what if something really goes wrong at Wu Wei's place?" Chen Yatian put away the smile on his face and asked seriously. This question is unavoidable.

    "The coalition forces must participate." Yi Lexiang touched his chin and said thoughtfully, "The Akashic Secret Society, plus the Long clan, even if we do not get the position of commander-in-chief, we will definitely be in the coalition forces.  We have a lot of say. Let¡¯s see then! On the other hand, not to mention that if we don¡¯t join the coalition, we may be regarded as a thorn in the coalition¡¯s side. Without us, there will be no one in the coalition who can confront the barbarians.  Sharp knife. No matter what, we must buy some time for humans."

    "But I don't understand. This matter is obviously closely related to the fate of the entire human race. Why should we form a new alliance outside the three major alliances? The forces in the new alliance now are actually all the stars in the world besides the Holy Alliance.  As the main people in power in the empire, I don¡¯t see the practical significance of forming such an alliance. Apart from the ordinary people, I think the return of the barbarians is no secret.¡±

    ¡°That¡¯s the problem. Those in power don¡¯t want ordinary people to know the truth. Have you ever heard of ¡®doomsday psychology¡¯?¡±

    "The psychological manifestation of mass hysteria caused by the sudden appearance of incomprehensible things or extreme panic? Will this really happen? I think people's psychological quality will not be so vulnerable."

    "Doomsday psychology first appeared in human beings"??The era before leaving the earth's mother planet and heading towards the stars.  At the beginning, this psychological theory was a theoretical speculation used by some scholars to explain the religious doomsday belief doctrine, and later it gradually evolved into a complete discipline.  Literally, no one has ever actually seen this happen.  However, similar situations did occur under certain special political circumstances.  Therefore, the extreme outbreaks described by doomsday psychology are not entirely imaginary.  But in the final analysis, those who are truly wary of this doctrine are those with power, because even in the most extreme cases, what humans in a state of hysteria ultimately destroy is the social superstructure, administrative system, and privileges.  Class, and of course the long-standing civilization system accumulated by mankind.  Think about it, if the people of this world knew that there really are "gods", there are unexplainable alien spaces, and there is a world where time is eternally stagnant, even all the myths and legends of ancient times can find their shadow in the real world.  , what a strong impact that would be?  Human emotions are so complex and changeable. Maybe some people are willing to live under the rule of barbarians, and there are also conspirators, careerists, anti-human beings, etc. who will definitely use this to cause trouble.  Who will clean up this mess then?  The war has not yet started, but there is already a fire in the backyard. I think this battle has not even started yet, and mankind has already lost three points.  "

    ¡°But once a war breaks out, won¡¯t the people know the truth?¡±

    "You underestimate the government's propaganda agencies. As long as everyone maintains a tacit agreement not to tell the truth, how will ordinary people know?"

    "But the soldiers know."

    "So what? The military itself is a violent institution that maintains national rule. It is subject to strict discipline. Their bounden duty is to obey orders. When the war itself is just, how many people do you think would be willing to disturb the peace?  world?"

    "But there will always be news."

    "That's a rumor, it's the enemy's psychological warfare. You can just find a reason to evade it. Yatian, this is the art of scheming." Yi Lexiang sighed, "And human beings have long been accustomed to the art of scheming.  Life. To break these, we pay a price we cannot afford.¡±

    Chen Yatian couldn't help being speechless and could only respond in silence.  Human beings' complex and ever-changing nature has also shaped a complex and ever-changing social system. Good and bad, justice and evil are difficult to explain clearly at a time.

    "However, from our standpoint, no matter what the true purpose of those in power is, forming such a new alliance has its advantages after all. When they see with their own eyes the strength displayed by the Barbarians and what they may bring to the world  After bringing huge threats, this human civil war that has lasted for several years has seen the dawn of an end."

    "But the price we paid in Charno is too great." Chen Yatian shook his head in pain,

    "Yes, but there are some things we have no choice about. Fate has chosen us to endure all this suffering, but we have no way to choose our own destiny." Yi Lexiang looked melancholy.  There is nothing he can do about the rest of the world.  But for the soldiers of the Free Army, perhaps they still have the opportunity to choose their own destiny in another world that is completely different from this one.
