Chapter 138 is completely different

The Battle of the Jet Galaxy was recorded in the history of the alliance's war. The focus of later generations on the battle was not how the commander used the strategy or what the enemy made. It is a battle that determines the future of the alliance, and its victory or defeat determines the survival of the alliance - although people at that time were not clear.

But the facts are irrefutable. It is precisely because the Fourth and Fifth Fleets of the Alliance abandoned their respective camps and boldly united that they could defeat the Federal Third Fleet that contained the Fifth Fleet and severely damaged the Federal Fourth Fleet, and completely let the Fifth Fleet escape from the near regional junction and devote its strength to the alliance's battle against the enemy. Medium.

It is a turning point in history, and it has gradually made commander Huo Xiu's reputation known all over the world. In his subordinates, the commander is an invincible "god", and the gradually changing war situation has made everyone firm. Affected by this atmosphere, more people know the pillar of this alliance. Things.

Unlike the scenery of Huo Xiu, Austin Cruz, who was defeated again, escaped from the Jeta Galaxy, returned to the federal-controlled star domain, and rested the severely damaged Third Fleet. At the same time, a military conference was held to determine the future fate of Cruz's family.

This is the worst defeat since the federal war. Everyone vented their anger on the commander Austin Cruz* (why not Qi Guowen* of the Fourth Fleet)? Originally, he also had his share, but unfortunately, he himself had already died in the explosion of the Ceta Galaxy nucleus*), and even Ye Qilong*, the commander-in-chief who had always represented authority, received many complaints from the parliament.

"General Cruz, you should understand the seriousness of this incident." The face of the United Speaker is very ugly. The major losses of the Third and Fourth Fleet have greatly weakened the strength of the Federal Fleet, and it is also at a critical moment of the current offensive war. A lack of strength will have a huge impact on the battle situation.

Austin Cruz didn't say anything.

"The parliament proposes to remove your status as the commander of the Third Fleet." York continued, and the faces of the other officers present changed slightly.

York also found that he said it too bluntly and explained, "But it still needs to be discussed by the military committee. Here, I would like to ask General Ye's opinion?"

There is no doubt that York threw this difficult problem to Ye Qilong. Ye Qilong frowned slightly. At the beginning of the establishment of the Federation, the status of each fleet commander was decided by themselves to join, such as Austin Cruz, who was originally the commander of the Fifth Fleet of the Alliance, then secretly united, and finally betrayed the alliance with a large group of loyal subordinates, although he was fought against the Federation. The addition of strength, but the high-level of the Third Fleet is still his confidant.

The federal high-level officials really want to weaken the power of those senior officers, but this kind of thing is not urgent at all - at least it also needs to be dealt with step by step after the war is settled. Now the parliament actually wants to directly remove Cruz's position as commander. As soon as this is said, whether it is a good relationship or ordinary generals are in a complicated mood. Come on.

Ye Qilong is not in a good mood at this moment. He knows that the failure of this battle is also his responsibility. He despised his opponent's mortal determination. But now he has the impulse to scold York - you can't do it in private, but on this occasion? Do you mean to embarrass me?

"I admit my major mistake in military command." Cruz said with serious, "I have no objection to all the subsequent resolutions made by General Ye."

Now everyone's face is more wonderful. Cruz released this sentence and also put the decision on Ye Qilong - but can he easily decide to change the authority of the fleet commander? Ye Qilong doesn't want to offend on both sides, but the current situation has to force him to offend people.

"We will discuss this matter later." He said coldly, with a doubt in his tone, "This is a critical moment to attack the alliance. Neither of you think about how to defeat the alliance to the maximum extent, but discuss behind the scenes how to deal with the defeat - what's the difference between this and the enemy?"

"Only when we are united can we completely eradicate the alliance!" Ye Qilong said loudly, "If everyone knows this, don't worry about someone's fault - people will make mistakes. Why don't we amplify our stomachs and wait until the end of the war?"

"I respect General Ye's opinion." York said at this time that he finally gave in.

"About the decision of General Austin Cruz." Ye Qilong looked at Austin, "Due to the serious losses of the Third and Fourth Fleets and the death of Qi Guowen* of the Fourth Fleet, I have decided to temporarily merge the Third and Fourth Fleets and propose Austin Cruz* as commander. What do you think?"

Some people agree, some people are silent, and the opinions have not been unified.

"I think it still needs to be discussed by the parliament to decide whether General Austin Cruz will continue to take command of the fleet?" York said, "After all, the Federation is a democratic society, and we should let more people decide the position of General Cruz."

Ye Qilong glanced at Austin and nodded expressionlessly. Ye Qilong then said, "I agree with the suggestion of the Speaker to let the parliament come to hear this matter, but the fleet cannot be without a commander for a day. I need General Austin Cruz as the interim commander. What's your opinion?"

"I agree."

"No problem."

This time, no one dared to refute the face of the commander-in-chief, and the government representative, H.E. Alfred York, finally nodded and acquiesced to Cruz as interim commander.

"The meeting is off."

At the end of the holographic meeting, Austin Cruz stood quietly, and Joni Cruz next to him looked at him and said nothing.

"After today, our status in the Federation will become extremely awkward." Austin said slowly, "In fact, you don't have to think about it. Parliament definitely doesn't agree with me to continue to be the fleet commander."

Jonny smiled bitterly and said, "Who let us meet such an extremely difficult and cunning opponent? We can only say that we are unlucky."

"Maybe the number of alliances is not exhausted." Austin said.

"Maybe, the biggest key to whether they can continue to survive is Huo Xiu." Jonny said, "If we had been with him at the beginning, we wouldn't have to face this kind of opponent - I personally feel that as long as he has enough strength, even General Ye will not be his opponent."

"Do you feel the same way?" Austin looked at Johnny.

Jony shrugged his shoulders and said, "Think about it, we have given a set of light and dark - assassination can't threaten him, and it's even more difficult to defeat him. I can't think of any other way for this person to collapse."

"Ason Eaton is a shrewd guy." Austin said, "General Ye once invited him, but this man resolutely refused. At first, I thought he was short-sighted, but now, he not only became the commander-in-chief of the air force, but also became popular."

"Yes, a choice, a completely different result." Johnny sighed, "He will get better and better, and we may completely decline in a few months. As long as you fall, all the premises established will slowly collapse... Dreams are dreams after all."

"I just want the young people in my family to live a stable life now." Austin said, "The fight for power is more fierce and unexpected than fighting the enemy."

"Why don't we..." Jonny looked at Austin.

"Go on."

"Why don't we just join the alliance while we still have power?" Jonny said a bold idea.

"Go on." But Austin didn't stop it.

"I have thought that the Third and Fourth Fleet is still a powerful fleet after the reorganization. The alliance is currently facing a crisis. They desperately need strength. Once we defect, it will directly affect the war situation. To a large extent, they can't refuse this **! Besides, we still have the Oshik galaxy colonial star and the Zeta galaxy colonial star in our hands - it is also a big gift for the alliance!"

Austin's eyes flashed and asked, "Do you think the alliance can reassure us?"

"No." Jonny replied, "But they will accept our surrender - although we will certainly not be able to control the army in the future, this is the most critical moment for the alliance, and our defection is of great significance to them. Of course, if you plan to live a stable life in the future.

"Then we might as well resign and settle down in the federal colonial star." Austin said, but his heart wavered.

"It's different." Jonny said, "It is reasonable for us to resign, and we will not make anyone absolutely ashamed of us. But if we join the alliance, we are the key figures who have had an impact on the war. Think about history, such people can even get glory and wealth.

"But in the end, it was also very miserable." Austin said.

"We also have a guarantee plan." Jonny said, "The condition for our defection is that we must have a political marriage with some people - such as Huo Xiu, the hottest at present. We can let Eleanor marry him, or let his sister Huo Sixin marry the young people of our family. As long as the Eaton family is unmarried people of the same age, the most important thing is to attract a relationship. With this relationship, the position will be stronger in the future.

"Political marriage?" Austin thought that this is rare for ordinary families, but for some high-level officials in power, they generally like to use this method to bind the interests of both sides.

"I'll give you a plan." Jonny continued, "I have studied Huo Xiu and Eleanor. They are both single at present - as long as this is possible, let them combine, and we will give up the fleet and let Huo Xiu as commander. Anyway, no one is more suitable than him. Then we two old guys can be on the second line or withdraw directly, but some descendants can let Huo Xiu promote them appropriately.

"Your plan is not a day or two, is it?" Austin asked.

Jony smiled a few times and said, "I have to be fully prepared. I can't threaten the development of the family because of his few decisions."

"Brother, how's your decision?"

Austin has been silent for a long time. As the most right to speak in the family, he must consider carefully, not only to develop, but also to maximize benefits.

Finally, he made a decision.

"Talk to Harrison Barton first to see how he is."
