The daily life of a poor husband [Interstellar]

Chapter 138

Simon thinks this world is quite wonderful. From the time he was involved in the interstellar storm, to the Federation stealing/transporting, to returning to the northern border star smoothly, it was only a dozen or 20 days. , like a Gongdou drama with constant climax/climax, one wave of unrest and another wave, every day can bring new tricks to people.

"What's your expression like?"

Simon, who finally returned to the base camp, stepped out of the sensor door, and saw the delicate face of his adjutant, with very meaningful eyes.

The long and narrow red phoenix eyes hidden behind the transparent lenses rolled around on the dog-like Shangguan of his family, making sure that there was nothing wrong with him. , Stretching out his hand to adjust his glasses, he complained silently from the bottom of his heart, ah, this unstoppable feeling of itchy hands is definitely the deity.

"Seeing that you have returned safely, the subordinates are very happy."

Jiang Xi said the exact opposite with a flat poker face and a calm tone without waves.

Simon looked around disapprovingly. He had already contacted the other party on the way back, and he probably knew the situation of the border and the empire during his absence.He quickly walked to the console, called up the latest star map, and browsed quickly but not perfunctorily.

The Leicester plan and Rocker used fakes to tear apart the border line and severely damaged the border troops. However, Jiang Xi, who was informed of the plan in advance, made a plan and used an old warship that was about to be scrapped as a bait to lure out the enemy troops who were about to destroy them. , Outflanked from the rear, surrounded the people, and disabled half of the Tulip Army.

The remaining large troops of the Tulip Legion, under the leadership of Leicester himself, are preparing to dispatch advance troops, using pheromone simulators to induce sentries into mental riots, causing chaos in the border army, and taking the opportunity to wipe out the border army. For the breakthrough point, enter the empire and cause heavy damage to the empire.

Because Gu Yanzhi and Meng Zhiyuan, who were executors, were taken down by them before the pheromone simulator took effect, so the border army chaos envisioned by Leicester naturally did not happen.

Without interference from external forces, the two sides fought with real machines and guns.

They have been on guard for a long time, but Leicester is not a waste. After the fierce battle between the two sides, each has casualties.

They failed to swallow the Tulip Legion completely, but Leicester, who led the troops out of trouble, did not take advantage of it. Even the army he specially arranged to stay in the base camp as a backup was defeated by Jiang Xi. In front of it, someone led a team to sneak through from the rear, and a praying mantis catching cicadas and orioles came behind, and took the pit unceremoniously.

Therefore, on the current star map, the distribution of troops of the Tulip Legion shown on the current star map has shrunk a lot compared to before Simon left, and many of them have moved their positions and moved back. The distance is much different than when we first met face to face.

"Where are those two people now?"

It sounded like a nonsensical sentence, but Jiang Xi immediately realized who the other party was referring to. "The joints were removed and locked in the confinement room."

Having learned the lesson from the previous visit to the stone pagoda, this time Jiang Xi simply put the person under his nose to keep an eye on him. Considering that Gu Yanzhi is a guide with strong spiritual power, he simply stuffed the person into a place that can block the release of mental power. In the confinement room, lest the other party want to use mental power to make trouble.

Simon nodded slightly, satisfied with Jiang Xi's handling.

He glanced at the position of the enemy's main battleship again, and asked intently, "Is there any news from the other legions?"

During the limited communication time with Jiang Xi on the return trip, the two mostly talked about the situation on the northern frontier star, and the other frontier stars didn't say much, so he didn't have enough information about that side.

"The situation on the east and west sides is okay, but the situation on the southern border is not good."

Regardless of the character of the current legion commanders, they were able to sit in this position at the beginning because of their own ability.Hearing Jiang Xi say that the eastern and western borders are fine, Simon is not surprised, but the southern border, the Third Army?

It doesn't matter whether he is overhearted or looks at people with tinted glasses, but Simon always believes that the failure on the southern border is inseparable from Augustus.

The Third Legion has always been the direct line of the royal family. No matter who the head of the legion is, he cannot get rid of the shadow of the royal family. Now, under the control of Augustus, the imperial people's impression of the royal family has been completed. The transition from fan to black, from respect to resentment, only took a few days.

A little love affair and jealousy will make the public disgusted, but it will not rise to the point where the public is excited and completely disappointed with the royal family.

But human/human experiments are different. It is known that the royal family has been secretly arresting people for so many years to conduct research on awakening potions. Sin, sold to the federation through the black market, are unwilling to let the people of the empire know about it, who would really love such a selfish and black-hearted royal family?

Augustus has always been worried about the death of his only daughter, and he will not easily let go of the culprit who killed his daughter.He has endured it for so many years, and now when he erupts, he doesn't leave room for his opponent at all.First, through the awakening potion, the Federation was tied to this thief ship, and a powerful opponent comparable to the Empire was used to declare war on the Empire, causing the Empire to fall into the flames of war.Later, he planted all the charges on the royal family, causing the royal family's reputation to drop to freezing point. This was his second step in revenge.No one wants war, but what will the people who have always thought that the Federation is the perpetrator of violence, when they find out that this jackal is clearly attracted by their own people, how will they react?He wove an exquisite and impenetrable trap, and watched his prey fall into the net step by step. The more he struggled, the tighter he was bound, unable to break free, and his feet sank deep into the mud.

From the very beginning, Augustus didn't go for simple murder. His beloved daughter was abandoned by her lover because of the so-called portal class, and was blocked from the door of happiness because of the so-called identity.If he just wanted Edward Butterfield to sacrifice his life for Winnie, then with his ability, even if Edward was the Emperor of the Empire, he would have died several times in the past ten years.

What he wanted to take revenge was not only the heartbroken man who failed his daughter's love, but also the root cause that prompted the heartless scumbag to make this choice.

Since between feelings and reality, you choose reality and abandon your former lover, then I will let you destroy reality together.

And he has indeed done it, internal and external troubles, the empire now has both.

The reputation of the royal family has long since disappeared under his black hands, but Augustus also knows that reputation is very important, but it is not that important at the same time. As long as there is enough strength and the means are strong enough, even if the reputation is temporarily lost It doesn't matter if you lose, after all, history is always written by the winners.As long as this turmoil passes, it will not be difficult to restore his reputation.

Therefore, the failure of the Third Army had already been written in Augustus' script.As the direct line of the royal family, only the third legion is always different from its third and third legions.

Augustus will not leave a chance for Edward, and all possible comebacks have been snuffed out by him one by one before the bud.

As for what happened after this...

From the fact that Augustus has kept himself well hidden and has not been exposed to others, it can be seen that his ambition is not only to overthrow the royal family, it is not impossible to say that he wants to replace it.

As an outsider, Simon connected all the information with the recent developments. After thinking about it carefully, he found that the conjecture that Augustus wanted to clear all obstacles and become No. 1 himself was not unfounded.

First of all, if Augustus just wants to bring down the royal family, he doesn't have to stay behind the scenes and not show up.

He completely disclosed Winnie's matter to the public, and then pinned all the black material on Edward's head. You must know that although the public is now excited about those leaking posts, if Augustus does not disclose If the vest is used in person, the effect will be as simple as one plus one, but one multiplied by ten, one multiplied by one hundred, and the roof of the royal family can be blown off by the people.

Secondly, a person who is really desperate and wants revenge will not spend so many years planning little by little, and still beat him to death all at once.

It is precisely because I have other plans that I pay attention to every step and write the script early.

Simon closed his eyes and tried to put himself in the identity of Augustus to observe the current situation.

After a while, he opened his eyes.

"One hour after the release, I will bring news of people coming back from the Northwest."

He came back this time, because the stronghold of the Tulip Legion moved, and the two sides avoided it, so Lester didn't know about it.

Jiang Xi, who understood that the other party was about to set him off, nodded, "I'll bring someone to help."

Simon nodded. The Federation people have been here for more than a month, and it's time to go back to their hometown.

After finishing the Tulip Legion, he planned to sneak back to Emperor Star to have a look.

The east, south, and north may all be at a stalemate with the Federation, but the eastern border where Augustus himself sits is impossible.

The news from the eastern border star has never been abnormal, but the storm on the emperor star is getting more and more intense. If he is Augustus, he will definitely not be on the eastern border star, but secretly return to the emperor star, for the final Prepare for the final chapter.

Thinking of going back to Emperor Star, he suddenly remembered that the end of the term was approaching, and Xie Yang was taking his final exams. It was a pity - the tradition of the military academy is that the campus is completely closed during the final exams, and it is impossible to even access the star network.

After thinking about it, let the child take the exam well. When the school is unsealed and everything is over, he can just take someone to Iris Star for vacation.

Jiang Xi, who was arranging personnel, happened to hear Simon's muttering, and was taken aback for a moment, "Lieutenant General, you... haven't contacted Xie Yang?"

"? When he finishes his exams and everything is over, then take him out to play."

I have contacted, but still haven't contacted. I looked at the date afterwards and realized that it is the time for the child's final exam. The other party can't access the Internet now, so I didn't bother anymore. I just left a message to let the child take the exam.

Jiang Xi: "..."

For a moment, he looked at his Shangguan with sympathy.

you are done.

There was love in his eyes, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help looking up at Simon, and he couldn't hide the words gloating all over his body.
