Chapter 093 Dramat
One day after talking with Martin, Huo Xiu suddenly received a message from a busy man.
"Shouldn't you be at war? Why do you have time to come to me?"
Huo Xiu held his arms and looked at Song Peran's holographic projection in front of him. She stood with her back and behind her back, her legs slightly separated from her shoulders, and stood with her head held high, all with a heroic posture on her body.
"Can't I find you in a war?" Song Peilan asked, "Besides, I haven't seen you for several years, but I miss you, a handsome little guy."
Huo Xiu frowned and automatically filtered out the following sentence. He had a long period of contact with Song Peilan, and this person's words were half true and half false. Although it sounded casual, it took a long time to feel her mentality that was ready to give people many traps at any time.
"Oc well, don't make a face. You can't make a joke. I don't know, but I thought you were my officer." Song Peilan said with a smile, "But what I said is the truth."
"Are you idle?" Huo Xiu asked her.
"No, no, no, things are unexpected." Song Peilan shook his head, "It's just that I suddenly thought of you at some point, so I really want to talk to you in my busy schedule and tell you something by the way."
I'm afraid her sentence "by the way" is this fan mu.
"I said it's no wonder that I also use the encrypted channel of the Military Intelligence Agency to chat with someone, and I thought that the current intelligence agencies of the alliance are worthless."
Song Peilan still smiled and said, "Of course, who calls you my subordinate? There are always some things to say to you. And I guess with your nature, even if I don't say it, you will try your best to find an answer. Now I'll tell you, so that you don't have to bother a committee member to hint at me in person.
Huo Xiu also had a smile on his face, which proved that Song Peilan's statement was completely correct. He planned to ask for more information from General Eaton.
"The relevant military information agency reports have been sorted out and sent to you. I don't want to repeat the content. You can read it by yourself later."
"I just want to remind you to be careful at present." Song Peilan put away her smile and said solemnly, "Pay attention to the people around you. Although the alliance is not in chaos now, the leaders must have been worried. If someone plans to launch something at this time, you have to take care of yourself. Don't think that the battlefield is far away from you and do nothing all day long. You are an officer. I don't need to say more about what to do during the war.
Huo Xiu nodded. Although every word of Song Peilan seemed to be half true and half false, these words were indeed her heartfelt care, which he could feel.
"Alle!" Song Peilan stared at Huo Xiu for a few seconds, " Take care, that's all I want to say." She took a step forward and seemed to want to hang up the communication.
"Wait a minute..." Huo Xiu looked at Song Peilan and hesitated.
"What?" She stopped reaching out.
"I also have something to tell you." Huo Xiu said.
"You still know how to exchange secrets." She smiled, but she didn't seem to take Huo Xiu's words too seriously. "If there is anything, just tell me that this is an encrypted channel, and no one will eavesdrop."
"It's about the munitions a few years ago." Huo Xiu thought for a moment and felt that it was necessary to remind Song Pélan that although she probably knew everything, he still told Song Pélan what he heard from Martin and the results he speculated, but avoided the problems of the Brown family.
"Thank you for telling me this." Song Peilan said, "Although I know a part of it, with your prompt, my thinking is smoother. By the way, since you told me this, I also have a small task for you - don't be too excited, it's just a very ordinary thing.
Huo Xiu listened carefully.
Since it is estimated that the goods transported by the Brown Group are secretly supported by independent organizations in remote areas, it is certainly not only the support of private groups, but also the secret help of government personnel. This group of people plotted rebellion is huge and their whereabouts are changeable. I ask you to take advantage of your relationship with the Brown family to find opportunities to track the trade routes of arms transportation and record them. The more routes, the better. Is it's okay?
Huo Xiu thought for a moment and said, "There have indeed been a lot of goods transported out of the border recently. If you want to track them, it's really a good time."
"When you take on this task." Song Peilan knew that he had agreed when she saw Huo Xiu's expression, "But the premise of everything is to be confidential. These secret routes may be very useful in the future. You can't expose yourself or boldly go forward to fight with them, understand?"
"I understand, sir." Huo Xiu used a formal tone.
"You can contact me at any time if you need anything." Song Pélan saluted him, "Song Pélan is offline."
Huo Xiu returned the gift to the disappeared image.
"You take care, too."
Hoshu got some recent spacecraft ready for arms transport from Martin and Daniel. Although it is a secret route and the relevant decrees are also complete, after all, it is through the hands of the future company. The Brown family is very ghostly and will leave behind wherever they go.
A few days later, Huo Xiu's "Fly" also quietly followed the other party.
"Shir, the other party has entered a long-distance fixed transition point." A radar observed and reported, "It is now maintaining a connection with the other signal transmitter. Please indicate the next step."
"Follow them into the fault space and pay attention to concealment."
On the cruise ship's bridge, Huo Xiu, sitting on the captain's chair, gave orders, and a large group of operators next to him buried themselves in the electric virtual keyboard and their fingers danced. After several years of practice, the crew has also become familiar with Huo Xiu's personality and can carry out every order he gives.
A short acceleration, the ephemerium entered the fault space.
Huo Xiu looked up at the star map of the Alliance colonial area displayed on the central display screen. Each colonial area controlled by the alliance is marked above, including the detected area and the undiscovered area. Although it sounds only more than a thousand light-years, it has taken hundreds of years for alliance researchers to explore all areas. It can be imagined that although it is in an extremely fast interstellar era, human beings are still a small species relative to the universe.
"Eve." Huo Xiu shouted, "You will take over the control of the cruise ship and prompt us three hours before the end of the trip."
"No problem, sir."
The virtual image of Eve appeared in mid-air and nodded to Huo Xiu.
"Now, the crew immediately returned to the area of their dormant cabins." Huo Xiu stood up and looked around. This time, because it was a secret operation, there were not many people carrying. The first mate Zhou Jun was with the ship at any time. In addition, there was Eleanor Cruz, an air force officer. In case, the Veloraptor team also traveled with the ship.
Star Trek is fast, but it is also long. Under the deliberate control of Eve, the Perilla is not slow - it only follows the previous transport spacecraft, records their travel routes, backs them, compresses and stores them. The hard-working artificial intelligence is always always I'm not busy.
After about ten days, the Perseilan followed the spacecraft deep into the remote colonial area, but it avoided the colonial planet area and failed to see any war. On the contrary, it stayed in a small warship for more than ten days and almost isolated all their communications with the outside world.
Of course, their final actions have also paid off.
"Shir, the last landing of the transport spacecraft is located on the Colony Star of the Orosta Galaxy, a planet that has not yet been colonized. It is currently behind the Union Army, where the Eighth Fleet is stationed."
Zhou Jun reported the results to Huo Xiu.
"What about the commander's information of the Eighth Fleet?" Huo Xiu asked that it can be concluded that the purpose and motivation of the military leaders of the Eighth Fleet are not pure.
"All the information about Nord Buck* is here." Eve personally displayed the information on the big screen, so that everyone on the bridge could see it clearly.
Huo Xiu read the materials he had seen several times one by one. He has to admit that Nord Barker is indeed a great figure. Because he has been stationed in remote areas, he served in an army aviation regiment in his youth, and then went to space to participate in nearly 100 large and small missions to eliminate pirates, anti-terrorism and other missions. He was promoted to * in his sixties and served as the commander of the Eighth Fleet in his early 70s and a member of the Military Commission.
It can be said that his power is almost comparable to that of General Eaison Eaton. Both of them have the same rank, fleet commander and member of the Military Commission, but General Eaton also serves as Air Force Chief of Staff, with a slightly higher position. However, when it comes to practical experience, I'm afraid Buck* will have a slight advantage, but Huo Xiu is also clear that General Eaton is also a very strategic talent.
But it is such a person who is actually involved in a conspiracy that may threaten the stability of the alliance, which shows that if things continue to deteriorate, someone will one day fight against him on the battlefield. Who will it be? I'm afraid there are only a few fleets left in the vicinity of the alliance.
The terrier did not approach the Orosta colonial star, and even dared to look at the rotating planet from afar, because there is the Eighth Fleet stationed nearby. There are more than 100 warships plus supply ships, logistics transport ships and so on, and there are nearly 300 ships of various types. If a small cruiser dares to approach, it can only live. I'm impatient.
They left the Orosta Galaxy and continued to track the departing transport spacecraft through the frontier star, the most remote colonial star of the alliance.
But at this time, the messenger reported an abnormal situation.
"Shir, the jump communication is not available." A sergeant reported, "The transition fault communicators near this galaxy have been turned off, and external communication has been completely blocked."
"What will be the reason?" Huo Xiu asked.
"If it is a fault, the scope is too wide. It is the first time I have heard of the collective damage of the jump communicator for so many years; but if it is artificial, it is much simpler. You only need to give an instruction to the artificial intelligence that controls the communicator, and the planet will completely cut off contact with the outside world."
"Eve, record the symptoms and find a coordinate point to leave. We need to send the sorted information to the Military Intelligence Agency."
"Failure Record Alliance 333, 1135 on October 21..."
"Shir, there is a communication device near the nearby ε Orion. Maybe I can try it there." The messenger just made a suggestion.
"Implement immediately." Huo Xiu turned around and sat on the chair, "Go forward at full speed."
"I understand."
The cruiser started at full speed and is currently more than 100 light years away from the star ε Orion, but it only takes more than four hours to reach its destination.
ε star (Bamboo2) is a dazzling blue supergiant. The light of the second-class star can almost illuminate several small galaxies around it. At the same time, it is also the easiest star to observe. In addition to its hot light, the most attractive thing is its blue body, which is full of psychedelic.
"Eve, open the viewing window and let's enjoy the demeanor of Sansu II."
Huo Xiu said that he wanted everyone to relax, especially the women in the Air Force, who must want to enjoy this scenery up close.
However, when a layer of alloy armor above the head is opened and everyone looks at the top of the head at the same time, the surprise comes - the original beautiful scenery is ignored, and the only thing you can see is the battlefield-like dead space - full of a pile of aimless floating space garbage - battleship fragments; explore Strong radiation detected by the detector; some of the wreckage can faintly see the appearance of a warship.
"What's going on?" Eleanor subconsciously asked, which is also a question that has piled up in everyone's hearts. What's going on here?
"Let's have a fight." Huo Xiu stared at the top of his head and gave an answer that everyone could guess, "Eve, check the communication here to see if there are any living people. Communicator, try the jump communicator near here. We must send out the information as soon as possible.
After a while.
Eve replied, "I received some signals, but they were full of static noise, and some were just residual communications, but it turned out that this was left by a group of alliance soldiers. They seemed to try their best to attack a civilian spacecraft, and later met... alliance warships..."
Eve shook her head and couldn't figure it out for a while.
"Shir, the jump communicator cannot be used." At this time, the messenger reported, "It has also been closed, but if necessary, Eve may be able to give us some help."
"Do you want me to invade it?" Eve said.
"Yes, you can do it." The communication soldier said, "You are the smartest artificial intelligence I have ever seen." But he also knows the charm of words.
"Thank you for your compliment." She smiled.
The perilla found a nearby jumping communicator disguised as an asteroid floating, and invaded the artificial intelligence prepared by Eve into the artificial intelligence to control the communicator through wireless communication. After a smoke-free battle, Eve appeared in front of everyone again.
"It's really not worth mentioning." She said proudly, "But unfortunately, all the communicators around here have been turned off. Even if we can control this, we can't send messages."
"But artificial intelligence recorded an emergency jump communicator. It originally wanted to intercept, but it was autonomous, and it failed to intercept."
"Emergency jump communicator? This is an emergency communication for the military!" Huo Xiu stood up and said, "Eve, do you know the specific coordinates?"
"I know."
"Okay, track it and intercept it!"
Huo Xiu affirmed that he had been able to predict that some major event would happen in more than ten days, and this emergency jump communicator became the focus of unraveling the mystery.
The perilla entered the fault space and once again exerted its extremely fast speed. Thirteen hours later, it contacted the military's emergency jump communicator in time and downloaded the information it stored.
"The files inside are randomly sent to anyone and have not been encrypted by any program." Eve said while displaying the documents on the big screen.

Shocking!
Huo Xiu has never heard of Brigadier General Wei Youguo, and he doesn't know who Dr. Melinda Hurley is, and he doesn't even know much about the "Tiger Corps" of Emperor Engaio's personal guard, but now, he opens his eyes wide and stares at the lists listed inside and the orders they have given with a ghostly look. , even holographic communication video.
With so much evidence, there is only one thing to prove--
This is an alliance crisis that has been planned for more than 20 years!
General Nord Buck, his core group and the current rebels have been in the same group for more than a decade. They plotted to betray the alliance, misappropriate the alliance's funds for security issues in remote areas, develop technology, cooperate with some members of the Brown family, buy the company's most advanced munitions equipment and strengthen their fleet in the future, etc.
However, when it was detected by the Military Service and carried out an extermination operation by the Union Space Command, the core group had to abandon some unimportant chess pieces as a cover-up*. O'Miken's extermination activities are an example, but under this uneasiness, some of them actually united and began to resist and war broke out in remote areas.
The war was caused by the core group abandoning its partners at will. At the same time, the core group tried its best to protect its own army and used other fleets or some unfinished soldiers to rush to the front line of the battlefield, while their main force enjoyed all kinds of glory in the rear safely. Honor.
This is the truth of the war!
"Look at these lists, the alliance military, the third division of the Military Service, members of the Central Government, the vice president of the alliance... Tut, you human beings are really aggressive!"
Eve commented in a sarcastic tone.
I'm afraid only she can really look down on the upcoming storm.
"Eve, enter the coordinates of the Epsylon Galaxy, and we will return immediately!"
Huo Xiu decisively issued the order to return. Now things are going faster than he can imagine, and he must return to his post, although it is impossible to predict what is waiting for him.
