    Chapter 225 Promise farther (5)

    The next day, the official residence in Area A of the Blue Mother Star once again welcomed the envoys from the empire.

    According to the habit of the nobles in Yongyuan, since they are sent to the lower-level star city, it is indispensable to have an extravagant banquet.

    Last time the atmosphere was tense and time was tight. But now that the dust has settled, this practice has been restored-the banquet to wash away the dust is set in the reception room of the official residence.

    When the national anthem of the Old Empire was played by the orchestra, the envoys strode into the hall, surrounded by guards.

    Bin Fiennes seemed to gain weight again, and the golden robe was held tighter than last year. Obviously, this year has been a good year. His eyes wandered unhurriedly, and immediately saw the young man who advised him back then.

    "Your Excellency, please stay safe."

    Jiang Jianming was wearing a pure black dress, only the cuffs and the lace scarf on the chest were white.

    He toasted Fiennes from a distance. Crystal chandeliers on the ceiling cast sparkling light in the swaying red wine.

    "Oh, isn't this Lord Aslan?"

    A smile appeared on Fiennes' face: "The envoys are here today, and the great migration strategy is about to enter the second stage. Why didn't Prince Kaios show up?"

    "Adults know it well, please don't push each other."

    Jiang Jianming said lightly: "We persuaded him for two months, and we finally persuaded His Highness not to do stupid things. After all, he is still young and frivolous, please forgive me."

    "Hehe, of course, of course." The smile on Fiennes' face was even more complacent, "It's just a small section, as long as you can complete the entrustment of His Majesty the Emperor, haha..."

    A year has passed, and the Blue Mother Star City has been depressed a lot. The riot never happened again, and even though the fleet landed in the port, the people nearby just bowed their heads silently.

    It seems that in the face of this general trend, even if he is as strong as Kaios, he can only choose to surrender.

    Fiennes swept his eyes again. The Star City Civil Affairs Officer, the General Security Officer, the Head of the Science and Technology Department, the Secretary General of the Mansion... Those guys who didn't leave last year are all here. So the last trace of suspicion disappeared.

    The bright golden lights confuse people's eyes, and the strong aroma of barbecue pickles will lure the ministers to the banquet.

    The wine glasses collided, and the laughter, accompanied by the music, echoed up and down.

    ...

    Area A, Starship Harbor.

    The official residence is staggered, and the soldiers here are not so lucky.

    Under Fiennes' orders, all Imperial soldiers had to work in shifts 24 hours a day, urging workers to carry out the hauling work.

    It gets dark early in winter.

    After working for a long time, the local workers of Blue Mother Star have already started to slack off.

    Several commanders of soldiers walked around with whips and shouted like ancient shepherds driving their livestock:

    "Be quick, let me move!"

    "Who told you to take a break with that stubby?"

    "Get up! One by one, don't be afraid of death, right!?"

    "Damn, you have to see a little red to be obedient..."

    Finally, a black-faced soldier showed his crystal bone and walked towards a little old man who was sitting on the ground and refused to move.

    Suddenly, the top of his head flashed. With a snap, all the lights in the entire Starship Harbor went out.

    It was pitch black all around.

    "Fuck, what's the matter?"

    "power cut!?"

    The black-faced soldier spat fiercely on the ground.

    "Fucking Starbreaker City, it can't even supply electricity! Bastards, where's your backup energy!? Within three minutes..."

    boom!

    The blood flowers flew, and the back of the black-faced soldier opened a penetrating hole covered by a crystal block.

    The new crystal machine bullet penetrated his crystal bone instinct defense, and the inertia made the guy stagger forward a few steps before falling to the ground.

    The little old man who was sitting on the ground just now suddenly raised his head. In the darkness, his wrinkled face flashed with a fierce light like a cheetah.

    "Someone shot! Enemy attack—"

    The little old man jumped up suddenly, and a frightened and shouted imperial soldier had his throat broken by his crystal bone.

    The next moment, the ceiling of the Starship Harbor bounced off countless interlayers, and with loud "bang" and "bang", figures like iron buckets smashed the ground, causing smoke and dust.

    The machine guns spit out flaming bullets, and the group of "iron barrels" held weapons. With the piercing cracking sound, the crystal bones were shattered by the new crystal machine bullets, and the bodies of the imperial soldiers fell to the ground one after another, and the blood mist filled the air.

    "They're wearing invisibility armor!!"

    An imperial soldier commander exclaimed in disbelief, "There is an ambush in this starship port, line up, line up!!"

    Invisibility armor, that was the battle armor for people that was once popular in the melee era of the base. Developed with special materials, it can achieve the effect of anti-radar, anti-infrared, anti-electronic and anti-sound detection.

    But the disadvantages are also obvious. This kind of armor that is sealed all over the body has a weight of 100 jins at least, which is a heavy load on the human body. Wearing this for a few hours and lurking around is half exhausted, let alone fighting.

    In today's big interstellar era, it has long been eliminated.

    And this group of people... If the ambush started before the starship landed, it would have been more than ten hours now!

    boom!

    The red crystal bone shattered the invisibility armor from the inside, Lin Ge kicked the cumbersome armor away, and wiped his sweaty face with his arm: "Kill my mother!!"

    "kill!!!"

    The insurgents followed suit and got rid of their heavy armor. A thunderous roar shattered the night, and they charged at the Imperial soldiers.

    Inside and outside the Starship Harbor, whether in the building or on the open-air berthing yard, was swept away by the flames of war in the blink of an eye.

    The Imperial Army was caught off guard. They had no idea where this group of demon-like "armies" came from. They were frightened by the momentum and fell behind in a few minutes.

    "Ma'am!"

    During the fight, the little old man dragged his injured half leg and rushed in front of Lin Ge, "They want to withdraw to the starship, where there are their military mechas!"

    Lin Ge's face was stained red with blood, and the technological prosthetic eye on the left flickered, locking on a soldier who was trying to approach her from the shadows.

    She flew up a crystal bone, smashed most of the opponent's head, and roared viciously: "Fuck your grandma's eldest sister's head, I will call you general in the future, General Lin!"

    The corpse of the enemy fell in front of him, Lin Ge gasped fiercely, and the voice resounded in his mind again.

    "This time," the black-haired youth smiled at her, "do you want to be a general?"

    The last time she was the lord, Jiang Jianming helped her lay down the first piece of land.

    But this time, Jiang mysteriously claimed that being a general is not the same as being a lord, and only instructed her two things until the end.

    "First, you can't let the imperial army open the starship and mecha. Otherwise, you will lose your advantage immediately."

    "Second, under the premise of Article 1, the loss of the starship should be minimized as much as possible, which are all our future materials."

    She knew it was different. The lord can be on the sidelines, but the general is called a general only when he fights.

    Lin Ge took a deep breath. She raised her arms suddenly, her black hair danced wildly, and the folded mecha on her wrist burst into a dazzling light——

    "Everyone, listen to my mother! The success or failure of life and death is a matter of life and death. Those who don't want to starve and freeze again, come with me!!"

    "After winning the Starship Port, my mother invites all my brothers and sisters to eat meat, three pounds per person!!"

    ...

    crackling—

    The wine glass fell to the ground, making a crisp cracking sound.

    "Report! Report Lord Fiennes, the central starship port in Area A was attacked! The Blue Mothers set up an ambush here, we were suppressed, and the starship was occupied by them - ah!!"

    The second half of the speech was drowned out by the sound of gunfire and screams, and the rustling noise of communication echoed in the banquet hall with melodious music, which was extremely abrupt.

    Fiennes stared blankly at the wrist phone, like a nightmare.

    Suddenly the temple was cold.

    Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the cold muzzle.

    "you you……"

    Dawn Aslan's expression was light, he held a gun in his right hand, raised a glass in his left, and drank the last sip of wine.

    Suddenly, there was an uproar in the audience. The guards brought by Fiennes drew their guns one after another, and several people from the Blue Mother Star immediately showed their crystal bones.

    But no one moved rashly, because Jiang Jianming pointed a gun at Fiennes: "Don't move, be careful of getting caught."

    ——No one thought that Aslan would be the first to do it, let alone that the young man who looked sick and bones would move so quickly.

    Even the rebel army's own people couldn't help but complained inappropriately in the back, and it was that sentence again:

    "So what's wrong with Your Excellency Aslan? Isn't he a sickly civil servant?"

    "Put down the gun... Do you know what you are doing, the Empire will not let you go..."

    Fear made Fiennes' lips turn blue, his teeth chattering: "You, you said it yourself last year!"

    Jiang Jianming smiled contemptuously: "Yes, but we have already taken this step."

    Fiennes's wrist phone was still ringing, and the window kept popping up, and the prompt sound was rapid like a drum.

    "Come on, Your Excellency."

    Fiennes said in horror: "You..."

    Jiang Jianming increased his tone: "Yes."

    The small life was restrained, and Fiennes had to open the pop-up windows one by one tremblingly.

    "Lord Fiennes! The subordinate is the captain of the seventh division of the fleet, Parker. The second starship port in the K area was occupied by the mob. We can only withdraw from the port... The subordinate should be punished!"

    "Report to your Excellency the envoy, the starship port in Area B was attacked, the enemy is the mob of the blue mother planet, ask for support!"

    "Report, the starship port in the R area was lost, and the commander died, please instruct..."

    Gradually, Bin Fiennes turned paler and more desperate.

    He grumbled nervously and repeatedly: "No, no... boy, you must have used tricks to deceive me..."

    "How could the Imperial Army of His Majesty the Holy Emperor be defeated!"

    "We have 10,000 starships! There are 100,000 mechas!! How could we possibly be defeated!!"

    The pop-up windows are still ringing, and the bad news is still coming one by one.

    Same moment, different place.

    This human mother planet, wrapped in azure and snow-white, finally erupted in unison after humiliation and forbearance for too long.

    Why is this happening? Fiennes couldn't figure it out.

    This should have been a glorious and comfortable mission. He was waiting for the addition of officials and titles in front of the emperor, waiting for the honor of the family to fall on his head.

    And the young man named Dwayne Aslan touched his heartstrings even more.

    Oh, that's a wise and docile lamb, Fiennes once thought, and he even moved his compassionate heart, which he hadn't touched in decades, to take Aslan away and make him his own personal slave.

    So he didn't know when the sheep developed their tusks.

    He couldn't figure out where the fighting power of a barren planet like the Blue Mother Planet came from, and why people who grew up eating garbage can defeat the imperial warriors who are full of fish and meat every day!

    Jiang Jianming's expression was indifferent, and he tapped Fiennes' temple with the muzzle, "Lord Fiennes, you must be able to understand the current situation."

    "Blue Mother Star has already revolted, and your life is of no value to us. Rebellion itself is a capital crime to punish the Nine Clan, and I don't care about adding another envoy's life."

    "And what about you? You mistrusted the traitor, causing the Great Human Migration Project to fail in such a shameful way."

    Jiang Jianming sneered: "You know better than us how much the Empire attaches importance to this plan."

    "I might as well tell you one more thing, Odin II is not only jealous of His Highness Kaios, but there is even a personal hatred between the two."

    "The emperor wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of this emperor's brother justifiably, but now he has asked His Highness to lead the entire Star City uprising. It is as brutal as the second generation. Even if the rebellion is finally quelled, you will not escape the death penalty..."

    "Bin Fiennes, aren't you afraid?"

    Fiennes's face trembled with cramps, "You, you want me to surrender...?"

    His eyes were bloodshot, and he roared, "I, Bin Fiennes of the Golden Snake family, surrender to such a trash star city!?"

    "Don't move." Tang Ren's crystal bone immediately suppressed him, causing the minister to fall to the ground in a state of embarrassment.

    At this moment, Fiennes's wrist phone rang again.

    "Lord Fiennes... This is the Starship Port in Area A."

    The voice on the other side was no longer urgent, but a gray-like depression. The sounds of battles and gunshots are no more.

    "Prince Kaios appeared here, we..."

    Prince Kaios' cold voice suddenly replaced the imperial soldiers:

    "I came, so they surrendered."

    In the hall, the guards gasped and looked at each other in horror.

    What a joke, the Imperial Army in Starship Harbor in Area A has surrendered... so many people have surrendered! ?

    Then what are they in the official residence, the turtle in the urn?

    Jiang Jianming narrowed his eyes and tightened his index finger on the trigger: "Look, you and I, there is no other way to choose. Sir, are you right?"

    "Don't!" Fiennes screamed, his throat squirming painfully and hard, as if swallowing a stone, "Don't shoot, don't shoot..."

    A few seconds later, two lines of tears fell from the face of the great nobleman.

    "Don't shoot... I surrender, I surrender..."

    Jiang Jianming didn't change his face: "Order all the imperial army to lay down their weapons and capture them."

    victory.

    It was a perfect victory.

    The good news spread all over the streets and alleys, and the entire Blue Mother Star was lit up. Countless people ran out of the house, waving their hands and crying: Win, win.

    An abandoned star city that deserved to die, actually defeated the fleet of the empire, what a feat!

    The rebel army took this day as a New Year's Day. The preparatory operations some time ago made them miss the real New Year's Day, and now they can finally make it up.

    "It's cool! It's cool, two years ago, who would have thought that Lao Tzu would also have today, do it!"

    "Hahaha, you don't know. At that time, His Highness showed up, oh, the crystal bone released was higher than the ceiling, and it scared the imperial soldiers directly... Come on, do it!"

    "Your Majesty Aslan's strategy is amazing, and his bright gun, handsome!"

    "That is to say, what kind of staff is he? He doesn't seem to be seriously ill. Why don't he just be the commander-in-chief in the future? But His Highness will be reluctant to part with it, hahaha..."

    At the celebration feast, there were wine and meat, singing and crying, and several of them were completely drunk.

    Jiang Jianming didn't follow along, but just said a few words lightly, then said he was tired, and left alone.

    He knew that at this time, someone had to take a cold shoulder, so that everyone would not get carried away and be overjoyed.

    He knows the battle he decides. The strength gap between the Blue Mother Star and the Empire is still very large, including this victory, he also cheated Fiennes.

    Starship ports in various places, he only arranged a few places with the right time and place and the most certain places to concentrate on breaking them.

    Even so, it has not been able to achieve everything.

    However, the Imperial Army lives under tyranny, and is afraid of being held accountable for dereliction of duty. In this way, only news of the defeat reaches Fiennes.

    The envoy had not passed the battlefield, but was frightened and let the whole army surrender, which saved a lot of trouble.

    On the observation deck of the official residence, the evening breeze is breezy.

    "ginger."

    Suddenly, someone called him softly from behind.

    Jiang Jianming returned to his senses, tilted his head with a soft expression, and raised his index finger: "Shh."

    He turned around. There is still hilarity below, clearly illustrious, passing through the depths of those quiet black eyes, like a match lit and then extinguished.

    Ryan was standing there, in a gorgeous double-breasted gown and a cape with curly platinum hair, staring deeply.

    He should have been drinking a lot, but he looked sober and didn't look drunk.

    "Aslan," Ryan stepped forward, his delicate and sharp eyebrows also illuminated, "how is it, do you like it, it belongs to you and me?"

    He raised his arm, as if he wanted to hug the other's waist, but he changed direction halfway through and gently held Jiang Jianming's upper arm.

    The shadows of the two people were reflected on the ground.

    "Why did Your Highness come here?" Jiang Jianming stretched out his hand habitually, rubbed the top of Ryan's hair with a smile, and suddenly found that the boy was taller than himself.

    "Actually, you can play with everyone for a while. Lin Ge is drunk. I hide out because I'm tired."

    "...but I see you here."

    Ryan pursed his lips, his voice was hoarse, but his eyes seemed to be coquettish with resentment.

    He took Jiang Jianming to the sheltered place for two steps, and said angrily, "If you stand here alone, I'm afraid that you will get dizzy and be blown off."

    "Okay." Jiang Jianming couldn't help but laugh, "Then tonight, His Highness Kaios will accompany me. If I feel uncomfortable again, you will take me back."

    Ryan's eyes lit up. Such words were considered very intimate. Jiang Pingjian didn't say it. It seemed that he was really happy tonight.

    He tentatively approached, and stood side by side with Jiang Jianming on the observation deck.

    Jiang Jianming glanced at him: "Do you have something to tell me?"

    "...Cough," His Highness Kaios cleared his throat, stared at the starry sky in the distance, and said solemnly, "Aslan, in a few months, I will be an adult."

    Jiang Jianming laughed: "Want a gift?"

    Kaios' soft voice sounded at the same time:

    "I love you."

    Jiang Jianming's expression was stagnant, and he felt his spine numb.

    "Ginger, I've thought about it."

    Ryan turned his face to the side, staring at him against the grand lantern, his expression firm and natural, like the winner who came to take away the spoils, "I think..."

    "Love you."

    The author has something to say:

    Lai: After winning the battle, while Jiang was in a good mood, quietly came over to confess to World War II.

    Lai: Actually, was very nervous. had to drink a lot of alcohol before dared to come.
