He Xuyang smiled and said, "Of course. Lingtian was able to take down those two ace mechas because of the support of our allies." Of course, He Xuyang understood what it meant to quit while he was ahead. It wasn't unacceptable for him to give up some benefits.
He Xuyang's words made the other representatives relax. This meant that the 23rd Division didn't want to kick them out. They could still negotiate.
Thus, they began the next round of negotiations in full swing. At this moment, the other divisions weren't as aggressive as before. After all, He Xuyang had the upper hand. They didn't dare to go overboard. This made He Xuyang feel less pressured.
However, it wasn't easy to satisfy everyone. He Xuyang didn't want to give up the benefits of the 23rd Division. At most, he was willing to let the other divisions follow the 23rd Division and apply to the military headquarters for some benefits. However, how could this not satisfy the desires of the other divisions?
Seven to eight hours passed. He Xuyang felt that he had reached his limit. He didn't want to give in anymore. Thus, the negotiations reached a stalemate. They had no choice but to stop.
While the representatives of the various divisions were trying to negotiate for the benefits of their division, there were also many small movements going on behind the scenes. A few of the generals went to find the second and third marshals in hopes that they could pressure Ling Xiao and make Ling Xiao give in.
Even the First Marshal received a request from the general of the 1st Division. He hoped that Ling Xiao could give in. Helpless, the three marshals contacted Ling Xiao. However, they received news that Ling Xiao was on his second honeymoon with his wife. In order not to disturb the two of them, his communication device had been turned off.
F * ck, this brat Ling Xiao is really cunning! He actually dared to use such a reason to avoid their greetings. How shameless.
The three marshals were all sly old foxes. They knew why Ling Xiao did this. It was obvious that he didn't want to give in. Compared to the Second and Third Marshals, the First Marshal was laughing happily. The young man he had his eyes on had indeed become a qualified general. The First Marshal's faction had a successor.
The commanders couldn't find Ling Xiao and couldn't force He Xuyang to retreat, so they finally decided to shed all pretenses. They looked at the Feiyang Ship that was returning to the Federation. The commanders made a decision in private. They would work together and strike first to gain the advantage!
The other divisions were in charge of monitoring the movements of the 23rd Division. They forbade any of the divisions from getting close to the Feiyang Ship. On the other hand, the 17th division's base was on standby. Once Feiyang Ship entered the base, they would send a large number of soldiers to control the two ace mechas from Caesar.
That was the only way to force the cunning Ling Xiao to show up, and then talk about the subsequent benefits.
However, just as they started to move, the Feiyang Ship that had just arrived at the Federation's astral realm received a piece of news that made them want to vomit blood …
In the captain's room of the Feiyang Ship, the captain had already received orders from above. They were to enter the Federation's territory and not stop at any of the spaceports. They were to head straight to the 17th division's base. At the same time, they had to keep the people from the Lingtian Battle Team in check. They couldn't let them take away the two ace mechas from Caesar.
When the captain saw the orders from above, he couldn't help but sigh. The adviser beside him asked anxiously, "Captain, is this alright?"
"We are soldiers. We must listen to our superiors' orders! Don't think too much about it, "the captain replied calmly.
There were many things that the commanders of the headquarters had to consider. The low-level officers might not understand the orders they gave at the time, but in the end, it proved that the decisions made by the commanders were more beneficial than harmful … they just had to follow the orders from above.
Under the captain's orders, the Feiyang Ship entered the Federation's territory and headed straight to the 17th division's base. The various defense fleets also received orders from above. They gave the Feiyang Ship the green light and didn't stop it at all.
Just like that, the Feiyang Ship flew for three hours and entered the maze where the magnetic energy was the most chaotic in the Federation's territory. Once they entered the maze, all the radar signals would stop working. Only the navigator could use his innate talent to find the correct route and guide the starship out of the maze.
Although the Feiyang Ship was a low-level warship, it was equipped with all the necessary equipment. There was also a navigator so it wasn't afraid of the maze. Under the guidance of the navigator, the Feiyang Ship maintained a constant speed as it headed towards its destination.
"Something's wrong!" The navigator suddenly shouted. It woke up the soldiers who were sleepy.
"What's wrong?" The navigator beside him asked nervously. The lives of all the people on the starship were in the hands of the navigator and him. He was under a lot of pressure.
"I think I can feel something approaching us," the navigator replied with a serious expression.
"Approaching? Could it be a meteorite? Or a space ruin in the maze? "The navigator thought of this possibility and his expression changed.
"I don't know." The navigator replied regretfully. He had only activated the lowest level of navigator. He could only sense the correct direction and the things that were approaching him. However, he couldn't sense the situation around him clearly like a high level navigator.
"Everyone, stay alert. Be careful of any meteorites and space ruins. Don't let the Feiyang Ship collide with them. "The captain received the news and rushed over. He immediately gave the order.
The entire control room started to get busy. The radar was useless so they could only use many ancient telescopes to observe the situation …
"Ah, look, what is that?" One of the starship soldiers saw a huge object through the telescope and immediately cried out in shock.
The soldier was very fast. He immediately sent the image he saw to the big screen in the control room.
"It's a giant starship!" Someone shouted.
"It's the most powerful giant starship. It's a flag ship!" The starship's full appearance appeared. The unique and domineering design and the dense cannons on the starship proved that this was a general-class starship. There must be a general in this starship.
The giant starship finally revealed itself. It tilted its body and revealed the phoenix totem on the bow of the starship. There was also a huge number 23 beside the totem.
Everyone opened their mouths in shock. The army's idol, Ling Xiao, who could only be seen on the screen, suddenly appeared in front of them? Wasn't this a dream?
"Di di, an unknown starship is requesting to communicate." The starship's optical supercomputer reminded everyone that there was a signal.
The captain picked up the call without hesitation. A clear voice sounded, "Hello, everyone on the Feiyang Ship. This is the 23rd Division's General Ling Xiao's Phoenix. Please prepare immediately. The general will be boarding the ship and coming to the Feiyang Ship."
"Okay, okay … I'll prepare immediately." The captain hung up the call excitedly. He didn't expect to meet General Ling Xiao in the maze. He also didn't expect that the general would be interested in boarding the Feiyang Ship for inspection. This was definitely an honor for the Feiyang Ship.
Although the Feiyang Ship didn't belong to the 23rd Division and Ling Xiao wasn't their direct leader, Ling Xiao was the idol of the entire Federation. Who wouldn't be excited when they saw Ling Xiao? No one could resist the temptation of meeting Ling Xiao. Soon, the entire Feiyang Ship started moving. Every starship soldier was excited as they waited for General Ling Xiao's arrival.
Soon, a giant mecha flew out of the Phoenix. Everyone looked greedily at the god-class mecha that they had only seen in videos. They watched as the mecha landed at the launch port and entered the Feiyang Ship.
Almost all the starship soldiers gathered in the mecha cabin. They watched as the god-class mecha, [Belief], was automatically sent to the mecha's deck.
The cockpit opened. Everyone knew that General Ling Xiao was coming out. Soon, Ling Xiao stepped on the platform and came down. There was a beautiful woman beside him. She was Ling Xiao's wife, Lan Luofeng. She was wearing a senior colonel's uniform. When she stood beside Ling Xiao who was wearing a general's uniform, they looked surprisingly harmonious.
The moment Ling Xiao and Lan Luofeng landed, the captain stepped forward excitedly and gave a standard military salute. "General, how are you?"
Ling Xiao smiled and saluted back, "Thank you for your hard work."
The captain's face turned red when he heard Ling Xiao's response. He didn't know what to say for a moment.
Ling Xiao didn't mind. He brought Lan Luofeng to the two mechas from Caesar and looked at them carefully. Then, he asked, "Are these the spoils of war that our division's Lingtian Battle Team obtained?" Ling Xiao gave the two mechas to the Lingtian Battle Team with just one sentence.
The captains and team leaders of the various battle clans, who were still excited to see Ling Xiao, calmed down when they heard this. It was as though a bucket of cold water had been poured over their heads. Only then did they remember that their general was also interested in these two mecha …
The captain smiled bitterly in his heart. Since General Ling Xiao was here, the result was obvious. These two mechas would definitely be taken away by the 23rd Division. Their headquarters' plans would be ruined. Who would dare to stop General Ling Xiao from making a decision? Unless their general came personally. Unfortunately, he didn't. There were only a bunch of small fries at the scene. They could only listen to Ling Xiao obediently.
The captain couldn't help but look at Ling Lan's group with jealousy. With such a caring general, the future of the Lingtian Battle Team was limitless.
The other battle teams also understood that there was nothing they could do. After all, no one would have thought that Ling Xiao would personally run to the frontlines to collect the spoils of war in order to protect the merits of his subordinates … One wrong move and the whole game was lost!
Meng Shangyuan smiled as he looked at Ling Lan's group of six. With General Ling Xiao's appearance, they wouldn't lose what belonged to them.
In reality, when he knew that the other divisions were fighting for this merit, he was indeed worried for Ling Lan's group. After all, they were just new recruits in the 23rd Division. If they didn't have a powerful faction supporting them, they would definitely not be able to get this merit.
Luckily, they had a fair general, Ling Xiao. This was their fortune and the entire Federation's fortune.
