A pale gray-metallic Federation transport ship sailing at a constant speed in the low-scale space of the Evening Scorpion Nebula.
The 3,000 officers and men of the New 17th Division on the transport ship were forced to concentrate on the journey again after they had returned to their hometowns for less than 100 days of vacation, and their mood was naturally not too pleasant.
For the commanders, this sentiment in the ranks was undoubtedly negative and dangerous, but fortunately, the purpose of their trip was not to attack the empire itself, but to take care of the security of the forward base.
For Xu Le, nostalgia was not his main emotion at this time, he looked at the black-haired shawl in front of him, and the woman with unusual beauty was more surprised and burdened.
He couldn't have imagined that Jian Shui'er would actually appear in the transport ship and become a female reporter with the army, and what surprised him even more was that the national girl who had not been seen by the people for a long time poured out her black hair like a waterfall after taking off her white hat, and she didn't see the vigorous purple in the deepest part of her memory.
A little-heated but somewhat stubborn argument took place between two young men and women, and Magnolia and a group of officers were very interested in leaving the cabin early.
Looking at Qingli's still touching and beautiful face in front of her, and the long black hair that was slightly spread out on her shoulders, Xu Le faintly understood why she had made such a big change, sighed in her heart, and was about to say something, but her eyes narrowed.
"I have a few things to take care of."
He said to Jian Shui'er, then turned around and went back to his cabin.
Jian Shui'er looked at his resolute back, with an innocent look on his face, and spread his hands cutely and said, "This is my own hair, what are you doing so angry?"
Xu Le knew that he had no reason to be angry at someone for changing their hairstyle, it was boring and ridiculous, but he was still angry, because that purple meant too many memories and traces of life to him.
But he walked back to his room quickly, leaving the other party with a cold back, but not playing childish, but because a line of white characters suddenly appeared in the pupil of his black left eye.
After that night in the barracks, the old thing rarely took the initiative to contact him, so at that moment, he was a little surprised and nervous about what had happened.
"There is no specific data" Xu Le sat on the edge of the bed and asked puzzledly: "But you are based on logic and information capture, without any effective information, how do you judge that something big will happen in the Federation?"
"Chaotic computing, I can't list the calculation process, only know that countless subtle variables are leading to a data turbulence over time."
"Based on your first-order clearances, I formally report the first variable to you."
"After the Medellín project, the Charter Bureau cooperated with the federal purge work, but on November 23 of the previous year, the authorization for the data cleaning work I was engaged in was suspended, and according to the pre-event data, there was an imperial seed, which was outside the scope of surveillance at this time."
Hearing this, Xu Le's brows furrowed even more, clasped his hands tightly, and asked quickly, "Where is this seed now?"
"No authorization, no corresponding monitoring report generation."
The Federal Central Computer replied.
"I authorize, I know you know where he is."
Xu Le lowered his head and clenched his fists.
"The Imperial Seed Suspect is now in S2."
"Who is the person authorized to suspend the investigation?"
"Assistant Director Cui Judong."
Xu Le's eyes narrowed, he knew this assistant Cui Judong, and knew that this person was the only candidate for the next director of the Charter Bureau by the default of the Federation, why would he suspend the investigation authorization If even a federal official at this level has a problem, how serious will the matter be "Then you are such a foolish calculation" He changed a verb: "The problem that you guessed, where did it happen" "Can't be sure."
"Why didn't you warn me before" "Because these things have nothing to do with you, and now according to my Chaos calculations, this matter will be about you."
"Fuck you chaotic calculations."
Xu Le said a dirty word softly, rubbing his hair vigorously, his heart was full of unprecedented confusion and unknown fear.
The alarm sounded poignantly Accompanied by the soft music and the smell of coffee, the ancient bell spaceship, which had been sailing peacefully for many days, suddenly the alarm sounded, the ship's defense system automatically switched the energy supply interface, the dim light replaced the bright light, and countless indicator light strips flashed constantly.
"Locked by a ranged weaponLocked by a ranged weapon" "32 degrees rush to hold on" The hoarse shouts of nervousness kept sounding in the command system, and the engine group of the Ancient Bell suddenly accelerated, avoiding the calm starry sky above at high speed, and after a violent tremor, there was a loud bang behind the ship There was an explosion on the right rear hull of the Gu Zhong, and the huge force knocked the people in the cabin to the ground, and at that moment, it seemed that there were more than ten dangerous jet rays outside the wide porthole, and if all these weapons hit the spaceship just now, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"What's going on" The officers on the Ancient Bell struggled to their feet, rushed back to their posts, and roared angrily and confusedly, this is in the space of the Federation, how dare those pirates of the Bermuda Triangle attack the Ancient Bell "The other party has our electronic code frequency immediately change the data and find them out" The rapid sound in the chain of command continued, and suddenly under attack, the Ancient Bell and the four frigates beside it had brushed shoulders with death several times, but the people on the ship still did not know what was happening, and they were angry and helpless trying to change the current passive situation, thinking that the stupidest pirates in Bermuda did not recognize the Xilin logo on the Ancient Bell, and some of the Xilin soldiers even thought coldly that it could be a conspiracy of the political axe, but no one associated this attack with the Imperials.
The electronic codes on the Gu Zhong and the four warships were quickly and randomly moved, and the scene of the surrounding dark space was converted into a visual picture and entered into the light curtain in the command hall, and the officers and men saw a picture that shocked and speechless, and the battleship fell into a deathly silence.
In the dark distance of space, with the beautiful stars of the Evening Scorpion Nebula as the background, dozens of light warships with black and awe-inspiring forests appeared around the Ancient Bell, like ghosts crawling out of hell, silently blocking all passages.
The officers and soldiers of Xilin looked at the light curtain with shocked expressions, looking at the black fleet that ambushed them, they were very unfamiliar with this kind of warship, but they were very familiar, strange because the other party had never appeared in the starry sky of the Federation, and familiar because there were many wrecks of such warships in the barren star field outside the border of Xilin.
Each of these ships had a beast-shaped bow, and the black hibiscus flag was deeply engraved into the hull with a laser knife, claiming to be immortal.
"It's an Imperial" There was a loud shout from the ancient bell, followed by countless exclamations, everyone's eyes shrank at this moment, and the officers and soldiers of Xilin were angry and shocked, and they were puzzled that the fleet of the imperial people actually appeared in the starry sky of the Federation Regarding this attack that shocked the entire universe, the Federation conducted a special investigation for two years, and those heavy reviews and reflections lasted for decades.
Two years later, when Parliament Hill reviewed the investigation report, a middle-aged councillor from the West Forest Region angrily and sadly asked many whys and ifs.
Why does the important commander-in-chief of the federal military travel, there is no federal fleet to escort the Xilin Military Region has never accepted the escort of the federal fleet, this is an old practice that has lasted for many years, a powerful habit that the military acquiesces in, if there is no such old routine and habit, but in strict accordance with the federal military regulations, is it possible for the shameless sneak attack of the imperial people to fail The Federation General and the representative of the Xilin Zhong family on the defense stand were silent and did not express any opinion.
Why is the Gary Corridor and the Evening Scorpion Nebula, the two most important space passages, the cruising density of the Federation fleet so low, that after the attack on the Ancient Bell, it is impossible to get timely assistance, in addition to the first transport ship, the first to rush to the rescue is actually Xilin's civilian spaceship If the budget of the Federal Political Axe can first meet the requirements of the Charter Bureau to lay the net over there, if the Federal Fleet can increase its cruising efforts, is it possible to avoid this tragedy Admiral Hong Yuliang of the Federation Fleet explained that the scope of the space passage is too wide, and it is not a small torsion hole recognized by the general public, even if all the warships of the Federation are closely defended here, they can only be like an ant trying to hold the entire Charter Square, but this point will be significantly improved after the forward base is put into use.
Moreover, in the spring of the 70th year of the Xian calendar, part of the main force of the Federation Fleet was transferred to the barren star field on the outer edge of the Xilin Region to annihilate the backup fleet of the Imperial Expeditionary Force.
The Federal Budget Agency's reply was that President Pabul had raised the budget of the Charter Bureau to the maximum amount since he took office, and that additional additions could lead to serious financial problems, and the most important thing was that Charter 1 clearly stipulated a floating range for the budget of the Charter Bureau, and the Political Axe had no authority to change it.
There were many questions and many reasons for replying, but in fact, everyone from the president to ordinary citizens knew in their hearts that the tragedy happened entirely because the Federation had never imagined that the Empire was capable of successfully sending an entire fleet, even just a medium-sized fleet, through the space passage.
No one thought of it, not a single one.
This terrible habit of thinking has cost the Federation dearly.

Of course, if what the Councillor said about Cillin had been successful, perhaps the attack would not have turned out to be the final one.
It's a pity that history has no ifs, so at this moment, the Gu Zhong spaceship and the man with a special identity on board are in the tragic situation of being ruthlessly hunted by the imperial fleet and fighting alone.
The quiet space directly in front of the Evening Scorpion Nebula was filled with silent explosions and circular dust rings fluctuating at the moment, and dozens of modified black warships of the Empire were shuttling through space at high speed, and the battleship weapons were firing fiercely.
With the ultra-solid alloy armor of the hull, the Gu Zhong, which withstood the first round of sneak attacks, lost part of its power because of the explosion at the rear left and rear of the ship, and one of the four corvettes has become a firework in the universe, not lonely, only tragic.
Under the desperate cover of the remaining three Xilin warships, the Ancient Bell engine group risked a second stage merge in an attempt to forcibly accelerate and escape, but in the even more fatal suicidal attack of the Imperial Ghost Fleet, the acceleration process was interrupted, and the situation was extremely dangerous.
"Commander, the nearest force with a signal to feedback is a transport ship 337 AU away."
In the dim flickering light, a Xilin officer with sweat and blood flowing on his face, looked at the back outside the porthole and said in a trembling voice, he is not afraid of death, let alone the imperial people, but he is very afraid that the back in front of him will disappear into this universe because of the incompetence of himself and his comrades.
"Continue to call for support but not limit it to military channels, don't let those civilian spacecraft rush over and send them to their deaths."
Zhong Shouhu Qingxing's looming right hand held the back of the chair hard, and looked at the fierce battle picture outside the window expressionlessly, until this time, the two sides were still attacking with long-range weapons, and did not use the carrier-based aircraft group, but when the Gu Zhong and the three battleships used up all their main guns, but they still couldn't be lucky enough to destroy the command ship in the imperial ambush fleet, the outcome of this ambush battle was extremely clear.
The disparity between the strength of the enemy and us is too great, even if his military talent has been in the universe for many years, dominating one side, and coldly disdainful of Du Shaoqing, he still can't turn the situation around.
"Commanding warships is not my forte, tell the troops, go and fight happily, and if you can fight a few ships, you can fight a few ships, Commander, my favorite thing to see is these fireworks."
The corners of Zhong Shouhu's lips curled slightly, smiled, and gently patted his wife's shoulder beside him.
Mrs.
Zhong sat in the chair with a pale face, her left hand clutched the hem of his military uniform, she hit the corner of the wall in the first wave of attacks, a trace of blood flowed from the corner of her forehead, and her calm and atmospheric expression looked a little timid and helpless at the moment.
"Yes, Commander," Officer Cillin replied in a trembling voice, almost roaring, and then ran quickly towards the control room holding on to the bulkhead.
"Count the number of warships of the Imperials, and send back the panoramic shot to S1, telling the Federation that the Imperials are able to pass through the space channel."
The smile on Zhong Shouhu's face gradually faded, and he said in a deep voice to the officers behind him: "The number of warships they can send over at most at one time is probably what we saw. ” This judgment comes from his sober understanding of his important surname, the empire has developed the technology to travel through the space channel, trying to hunt himself, that will inevitably put all the power they can into it at once.
If you want to hunt this tiger of Xilin, how dare you say that you will win without going all out Hearing the commander's words, the Xilin officers on the Ancient Bell were silent for a moment, and quickly returned to their posts to prepare for the last battle of their lives.
As the most important commander of the federal military, at the moment when his life is facing the greatest danger and may end at any time, Zhong Shouhu is still most concerned about the fate of the Federation At this most dangerous moment, the Ancient Bell reassembled its intact engine cluster, made new torque adjustments, and attempted to make one last attempt at acceleration under the cover of the suicide of the three frigates.
The three frigates turned into fireworks one by one in front of the eyes of everyone on the Ancient Bell, and when they saw that the Ancient Bell was about to reach a critical speed, flee the battlefield, and shake off those ghostly Imperial warship groups, suddenly, a gap opened in the belly shell of the Imperial warship, and more than 100 Imperial mecha densely rushed towards the Ancient Bell at high speed.
Seeing his subordinates turned to ashes in the silent space, Zhong Shouhu in front of the porthole squinted slightly, and then saw the next move of the imperial fleet, his eyes narrowed even more, and said in a cold voice: "Your Majesty the Emperor of the Departure Battle, you really did whatever it took to kill me." ” The Imperial mechs that ventured to vacuum boarding the ship had not had time to touch the hull of the Ancient Bell, and many of them were destroyed by the dense near-field firepower of the Ancient Bell's watch, but the remaining Imperial wolf tooth mechs were still fearless and gradually approaching.
Zhong Shouhu's eyes fell on those mecha that were getting closer and closer, and found that the shape of these mecha was very peculiar, and the speed was obviously beyond the past, his gray eyebrows slowly raised, and he said to his subordinates: "Tell the Federation another not very good news, the new mecha of the Imperial people has also been successfully developed." ” "In addition, remind them that the Imperials have the ability to go back through the space passage."
"Because they're going to capture me alive."
"Finally, tell S1 and Xilin that there is an internal annihilation among us."
The Empire's ghost fleet actually knew the electronic code of the Ancient Bell, and the other party was able to escape the brilliance of the Charter, and all kinds of details proved that there were some characters hidden in the darkness within the Federation, and even around him.
A mocking smile appeared on Zhong Shouhu's face at the thought of a loyal subordinate, not knowing whether he was laughing at the attempts of the Empire's enemies to try to capture him alive, or laughing at himself for being a hero, but he was in a desperate situation because of some spy or traitor.
At this time, the Imperial Mecha Group finally broke through the Ancient Bell's near-field firepower network, and like countless nails, it drove into the solid and thick alloy outer wall of the spaceship, and the inside of the spaceship clearly resounded with a heavy metal impact, and the officers and soldiers were pale, and they rushed over one after another, shouting loudly: "Protect the commander and his wife to leave." ” However, what happened next proved Zhong Shouhu's previous judgment, the three major systems of the Gu Zhong have been strongly supported in the fierce battle, but there is a problem with the release system of the escape spacecraft.
"It's okay to be with the fighters at the end."
Zhong Shouhu was expressionless, took the hand of his wife next to him, bowed his head and said gently: "After graduating from the First Academy, in front of the public, I always walk in front of you, I have never held your hand, let alone hugged you, can you give me a chance to make up for it today?"
Mrs.
Zhong calmed down a little at this time, took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood from the corner of her forehead, looked at him and smiled reluctantly, and said as easily as possible: "I will only give you this last chance." ” Zhong Shouhu gently picked her up, just like holding the bride back then, and walked towards the mecha that belonged to him not far behind him.
