Wall's military building.

"Very well, repeat this a few more times."

A huge ring-shaped virtual screen was dropped in the conference hall, and data and images flowed on it like water.

The rebels from the Blue Mother Planet, as well as several generals who had surrendered from Wall Star City, stood there, listening to Aslan's voice coming from the communicator.

"This battle will be a protracted one. After a long time, there will inevitably be leaks in the defense cover of Star City, but as long as the enemy is confused and fearful, we will have enough time to deal with it."

The commander's tone has always been gentle and calm, unhurried.Even if I am not here at the moment, it gives people a sense of peace of mind that everything is under control.

Luther sighed with emotion in a low voice: "So that's the case, this is the strategy of combining fiction and reality."

Chen: "That's right, if things go on like this, even if one day the defensive cover really shatters in the future, the enemy troops will not dare to attack Star City rashly because they are afraid of being tricked, and it may even achieve the effect of the 'empty city strategy'."

The newly surrendered General Zhou frowned, "Your Excellency, with all due respect, with Wall's small Star City, you may be able to persist for a month or two with these tricks, but it is absolutely impossible to persist for half a year."

Standing behind him were several of Wall's newly surrendered generals, who also nodded at this time.

This group of people has always held a somewhat disapproving attitude towards this young and frail commander-in-chief who pretends to be sick every day and does not show his face.

General Zhou snorted with a stern face: "If the commander-in-chief can only teach us to be cowards, I think it's better to surrender as soon as possible, at least the lives of the soldiers and civilians can be saved."

These words are ugly, and the generals in the rebel army couldn't hold back.Tang Ren respected the commander the most, and raised his fist with his eyebrows raised.

But before he could make a sound, he heard a faint voice from the communicator:

"As soon as Wall fell, you surrendered to the rebel army; now that the imperial soldiers are overwhelming, you have to return to the empire."

"So, if Wall Star City changes hands repeatedly, is the general planning to... open a hotel here?"

Immediately, General Zhou's eyes widened, and his face turned pale.

"Pfft." "Hahaha..."

A few uncontrollable laughs came quietly from everywhere.

Many people couldn't help laughing, while muttering in their hearts: Their commander-in-chief usually looks calm and steady, but he didn't expect his sharp tongue to be so powerful.

"All you have to do is obey orders."

Aslan said quietly: "You can rest assured about the rest. If we persist for a while, reinforcements will come to help us."

reinforcements?

Everyone stopped laughing and looked at each other, not understanding what it meant.

The rebel army is only a small group from the blue mother planet, and the enemies are endless. Where can there be reinforcements?

Does the commander mean to continue to cultivate new sources of soldiers from the blue mother planet?...But in just a few months, it's too late.

Not long after, the meeting ended amidst the doubts of most people.

In Wall's mansion, Jiang Jianming half-lyed on the bed, staring at the video and data flashing on the optical brain, and took off the miniature microphone hanging by his ear.

... Logically speaking, he was speaking to several important generals of the rebel army. He should be wearing a military uniform and sitting upright in the center of the conference room.

Instead of wearing a warm cotton robe, lying on the bed and taking a bottle like now.

Next to him, Lai An reached out and handed him a freshly peeled and diced apple: "Who are the reinforcements?"

Jiang Jianming still had an infusion needle hanging on his right hand, and held the wheat that he had just removed in his left hand, so he opened his mouth and took a bite.

Since the Battle of Wall, he has learned from the painful experience: he really can't show his face in front of people casually in the future.

One day, maybe one day, he will perform a paralyzed human being falling ill in front of all the soldiers. Can this commander still do it?

At first, Lai An expressed great dissatisfaction with Jiang Jianming's "hiding" mentality.

Jiang Jianming had no choice but to ask for advice, and said after a while: "But I have to deal with those meetings every day and run around, my body really can't bear it."

After a while, he said: "Where can I hide? Your Highness took me in... You will take me in, right?"

His Royal Highness Keos put on a ruthless look at first, but after being grinded and grinded by him like this, it softened within a few days.

"His Highness, have you ever heard of the saying 'time, place, and harmony'?"

Jiang Jianming looked at the time and stopped the infusion, sat up straight and talked to Lai An, "These are the three conditions that are conducive to combat as summed up by scholars in the old Blue Mother Planet era."

"I've heard of it before." Lai An took out the needle for him with ease, put on the infusion patch to stop the bleeding, and then held the cold hand in his palm and rubbed it to keep warm.

Jiang Jianming pulled his hand away, so he had to let him go, "The empire has been tyrannical for a long time, and now it is even disregarding the lives of the Vol people to adopt a comprehensive bombing strategy. The rebel army is born to occupy the peace."

Lai An pondered: "The so-called right time and place?"

Jiang Jianming: "Although the current interstellar war has long been separated from the influence of the climate and terrain in a single star city, in the final analysis: the weather essentially refers to the external factors that change with time;external causes of change."

"Wall is far away from Eternal Paradise, the environment of Yu Region is easy to defend and difficult to attack, the movement of giant fleets is difficult, and the defense system of Star City is very strong. This is exactly our geographical advantage."

"And our time of day will soon come."

...

In the blink of an eye, the one-month deadline passed, and Wall Star City was still unbroken.

The siege continued into the second month, and the Imperial Army began to come under new pressure.

——The time has come for the frequent activities of alien creatures.

Known as the "Border Wall", Wall has been harassed by alien creatures for many years. The local soldiers and civilians have become accustomed to it and have their own set of systematic ways to deal with it.

But the situation is different now, the Imperial Army has completely surrounded Star City.No matter which direction the alien creatures come from, the first to attack is the fleet of the empire.

The imperial army was caught off guard, like a hunter who was aiming with a gun was suddenly bitten by a snake, so he had to temporarily allocate troops to turn around and meet the alien creatures.

The following Wall Star City is still fueling the fire, played affectionately on a loudspeaker loop:

"Grateful! Thanks! Thanks to His Majesty the Holy Emperor for his kind heart, and to the brave and fearless general who sent troops to defend Wall Star City against disasters. Let us live in Wall for decades, and live such a stable life for the first time!"

That is, on the fifth day when the imperial army was exhausted by alien creatures, the rebel fleet that had been hiding in the Yu Region suddenly launched an attack, storming the relatively chaotic First Fleet.

The Wall Star City, which has been holding on for a long time, suddenly sent troops. Kaios personally led the main force to attack, and cooperated with Lin Song to form a pincer attack, repeatedly charging and killing.The formation of the poor First Fleet was penetrated more than a dozen times, and a large number of soldiers fled.

However, the rebel army recovered a large number of corpses of alien creatures during the attack.The extracted true crystal ore will become a new round of energy to support the defense system of Star City after processing.

After this battle, General Zhou and a group of Wall's surrendered generals were completely convinced, and no one questioned the commander's ability anymore.

But the imperial fleet had no choice but to retreat, changing from a tight encirclement to a long-range encirclement.

After the quick-fix strategy failed, they were caught in a dilemma, so they had to procrastinate, hoping that the defense system of Wall Star City would be exhausted for a day.

But when it comes to consumption, it's hard to say who consumes who.

Lin Song said with a smile: "Millions of troops came here from afar, and the initial idea was to make a quick decision. We can completely worry about whether they are hungry or not."

"We are in Star City. We have land, a factory, a bed and a house. Wall's resources are enough for the army to be self-sufficient. It won't be a problem to delay it for a year or two...but they are different."

Sure enough, the imperial army dragged on and fell into a stalemate. In the later stage, they even had to transfer resources from the Star City of Eden. Their morale became increasingly exhausted, and they were more just holding on for face.

But at this moment, a large number of people in the empire have already been exploited by the continuous "protection tax" so that every day is unbearable, and the land is ineffective.

If we talk about the first month, the people at the bottom are still looking forward to the early return of the imperial army in victory to appease the emperor's anger.

Then in the third month, the fourth month... When the Wall Star City has almost become an unbreakable myth, and when the nobles are forced to panic, another idea begins to sprout quietly.

Some people began to think to themselves: What if Wall Star City can really hold on?What if the Rebels can keep winning?

If one day, Prince Keos can really break through Eternal Paradise, does it mean that they can get rid of the dire times?

After such a delay, it actually dragged on until the 56th year of the old imperial calendar.

Eternal Paradise did not wait for the good news of victory, but waited for another shocking shock.

This year, the White Pigeon Akaba Club revolted.

Perhaps inspired by the rebellion of the blue mother planet, the members of the long-lost white pigeon Akaba Club raised the battle flag and started the war in the main galaxy of the empire.

In the same year, under the leadership of Joshua Song, the second-generation leader of the White Pigeon Akaba Club, the White Pigeon Akaba Club captured the Angel Hall Star City and changed its name to the Glory Land.

The Angel Hall was built on a semi-artificial planet, and it has always existed as the companion star to protect the Eternal Paradise.

If the fall of Wall is like being hit on the back with a stick, then the fall of Angel Hall is like being slapped with a big mouth, making Andrew Odin stare at him.

All the troops of the empire suddenly tilted towards the Angel Hall, and the army besieging Wall slowly withdrew, and was chased and beaten several times by the rebel starships on the way, and finally pulled their feet out of the mud.

When he came, he was fierce, but when he returned, he was disheveled.

After a year of persistence, the defense of Wall Star City was won in a way that no one expected.

That is to say, in the starship that returned from the victory after chasing the imperial army.

None of the ecstatic soldiers realized that just a few meters away, their commander-in-chief was cornered by His Royal Highness Kaios.

Already the young monarch was clearly taller than his commander-in-chief.

His back is broad and powerful, his arms are slender and tight, and his emerald green eyes are sharp and wild, like a lion king who has just grown up on the grassland.

If he wanted, he could completely suppress the sick and disabled human beings in his palms or under his body, even without using the power of crystal bones.

The monarch did indeed do so, and the starry sky outside the porthole witnessed the two figures entangled together, and their rapid breathing was also entangled.

"Aslan..."

The corners of Lai An's eyes are slightly red, and the possessiveness in her voice is almost overflowing, even with some kind of pain because she has endured her desire to the limit.

"I love you."

"Can you make me love you?"

He repeated this sentence, trying to force Jiang Jianming to agree.

But today, both of them actually have the answer in their hearts, whether they say it or not, it's the same.

"..." Jiang Jianming was forced to raise his head, his eyes were hazy, and his delicate Adam's apple rolled when he was panting, propping up a piece of pale skin.

Just like he knew a long time ago that Lai An would say that he loved him at this time... Lai An must have known a long time ago that he would not agree.

The evidence is that he either declined or was indifferent, but His Highness not only didn't show the slightest bit of frustration or anger, but kept pestering him like a fool.

On the contrary, it was when he slipped his tongue and said "I can't stay with you for too long" that really caught Lai An's eyes.

He knew it, and he knew it.

Jiang Jianming closed his eyes, his eyelashes trembling.

Unknowingly, they have connected to this point.

And it is impossible for the emperor and the commander-in-chief to really part ways, so what can he refuse when he refuses?

Love.

Jiang Jianming really didn't know if he had that kind of affection for Lai An.

But in the more than twenty years of dirty life, he seemed to have been walking hard in the boundless darkness, trudging through the cold suffering.

He died for beating his mother madly, and he raised the little trash who had revenge for his kindness to become a female general.

He lit bonfires in the wild for month after month, and he asked the refugees who were willing to be humble to raise the spears of resistance.

In fact, he has saved many people and raised many people. Although it is just such a weak and tired spark, he tries to light up a long night beyond his control.

But no one can save him.

He never expected anything to save him.

Jiang Jianming knew that his heart was cold.He felt that he should die alone under the stars, on the road chasing the dawn.

So that night, facing the young boy with a strange background, he just tried to share his fire as usual.

But then things were different.

The boy went back and forth, rescued him when he was dying, pulled him up when he was tired, lit a powerful flame, and continued the weak candle.

People are not plants and trees, and their hearts are not iron and stone, so how could it be possible that they really have no feelings?

"Are you angry again?"

In the ambiguous dark corner, Lai An narrowed his eyes and looked at him.

Jiang Jianming silently fiddled with the platinum curly hair winding around his neck, staring at the handsome young man... Maybe he should be called a youth soon.

He can't say I love you to Lai An.

But he couldn't even open his mouth and told Lai An that I don't love you.

He said slowly, "If you don't love me that much..."

If Lai An didn't love him so passionately, he didn't really mind... Let the little Highness tear off his collar and do whatever he wants to do next.

But Lai An immediately said: "No."

Jiang Jianming sighed: "Then my answer is no."

He has actually backed down.If Lai An changes his love method, he is willing to try to be an unknown male favorite on the emperor's bed, and let this hidden emotion and love. Desire be submerged in the secret history.

But Lai An said no.

Jiang Jianming knew him too well.With Lai An's temper, if he becomes an emperor, he must be a pair of emperors and empresses with the one he loves.

And it is definitely the kind that sits on an equal footing and governs the country together, and it is completely different from the "mother's harem" in the old blue mother star period.

As the commander-in-chief, Jiang Jianming believes that he can rely on his ability to stand up, and then hide his sense of existence, and he can also suppress gossip.

But being a queen is really impossible.

His lifespan, his physique, his race, his origin... All of these can generate huge chaos enough to shake the rebel army and even hurt Lai An himself.

So no.

"Let's go, it's time to go out." Jiang Jianming shook his head, he had completely recovered his composure, "His Royal Highness disappeared for too long, the soldiers should panic."

"Wait, don't run." Lai An clasped his shoulders and pulled him back, "Don't talk about that, let's talk about business."

Jiang Jianming was helpless, knowing that the other party just wanted to stay by his side for a while: "...you say it."

"The location of the White Pigeon Akaba Club is not well chosen. The Glory Leader is too close to the Eternal Paradise. If things go on like this, they won't last long."

Lai An pointedly said, "...without our support."

Jiang Jianming laughed: "Your Highness is bolder than me."

"Can it be done?"

"As you wish."

The author has something to say:

Lai: As the number of confession failures increases, gradually get used to it. can even switch mentality in seconds to discuss business after being rejected.
