At this moment, a series of hurried footsteps could be heard from outside.
A group of high-ranking officers had already rushed in from outside. They did not hear what General Liu Jinyi had said to Ling Zichen earlier, but they heard the voice that Ling Zichen had released through his divine sense.
"Commander, what's going on? That's the Tangmen's fleet. Why did we receive the order to be ready to attack? "A lieutenant general could not help but ask.
"Shut up. This is an order from the military. "Liu Jinyi stood up abruptly and swept his cold gaze across the high-ranking officers in front of him.
The lieutenant general who had spoken frowned but did not say anything else. A thin general said, "Commander, do we really have an order to go against the Shrek Academy and the Tangmen? That doesn't seem possible. "
Liu Jinyi said calmly, "Our order is to guard this place. We will expel all those who come to harass us. "
The general frowned and said, "Including the Shrek Academy and the Tangmen? Shouldn't we at least listen to what they have to say? Otherwise, I'm afraid the morale of the military will be shaken. "
Liu Jinyi looked at him with a burning gaze and said, "Tang Yaotong, as the chief of staff, you should understand that it is the duty of a soldier to obey orders. Furthermore, we don't really want to attack them. We just want them to leave as soon as possible. This involves a game between the higher-ups. What we need to do is to obey orders and do what soldiers should do. "
General Tang Yaotong sighed and said, "I understand. However, please take a look first. "
As he spoke, he pointed at the battle screen in the command center.
This screen displayed the mothership's radar system, which could monitor very far away places. There were also twelve screens showing the situation around the fleet.
General Liu Jinyi turned his head to look at the big screen. His eyes instantly widened.
This was because the screen showed that there were battleships leaving the fourth fleet and flying towards the Shrek Academy and the Tangmen's fleet.
"I didn't give the order to attack! Quick, send the order and tell them to return. "Liu Jingyi was shocked.
One had to know that as a space fleet, following orders was the most important thing! The mobilization of all warships required his approval, especially warships that were battleships and above.
At this time, two Dragon King class frigates, seven Ares class battleships, and some small warships had already flown out after them.
"Take a closer look. Are they going to launch an attack?" Tang Yaotong said helplessly.
Liu Jinyi took a closer look. Attack? How could these flying battleships have any intention of attacking? The protective shields on their battleships had all been shut down, and none of the cannons had the slightest intention of recharging. Everything that could be stored inside the battleship had already been retracted. Rather than an attack, it was more like a surrender.
More importantly, not a single warship had reported to him, nor had there been any other reports.
"Tang Yaotong, what's going on?" He abruptly turned around and glared angrily at his partner who had always been on good terms with him. The one in charge of intelligence and communications was this Chief of Staff!
Tang Yaotong sighed and said, "I was the one who gave the order not to inform you. Brother Jin Yi, you still don't understand the influence of Shrek Academy. No fleet of the Federation would dare to attack Shrek Academy. Let's not talk about the Tangmen. Do you know how many powerhouses have been born in Shrek Academy? How many students have they nurtured? "
"You too?" Liu Jinyi stared at him with a burning gaze.
Tang Yaotong shook his head and said, "I'm not, because I don't have the qualifications. I didn't get in that year. But my grandfather did. Before he died, he told my father that Shrek's glory will always shine. No matter what, our family's descendants are not allowed to be enemies with Shrek. Shrek Academy only takes in a few direct students every year. But don't forget, the academy has been the continent's number one academy for more than twenty thousand years. Whether it's the students or the descendants of the students, it's fine. How great is its influence? "
Liu Jinyi roared, "But this is the army, and you are all soldiers. Did your personal feelings make you forget your duties as soldiers? "
Tang Yaotong smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, you're right. This is personal feelings. But you have to understand one thing, Shrek has never been wrong. They have never made a wrong choice, and they have saved the Federation more than once. Without Shrek, the Federation would have ceased to exist. So, when Shrek appeared, the first thing we thought was that his decision was right, and if we stood against him, then we would most likely be wrong. Also, Shrek Academy and Tangmen have never lacked fanatics. Shrek is no longer just long live! Don't you understand? "
Liu Jinyi took two steps back in a daze. The Fourth Fleet, directly under the military, was known as the monolithic Fourth Fleet!
If it wasn't for the military's absolute trust in him, they wouldn't have given him such a not-so-glorious mission. But he didn't expect that there were so many people in the Fourth Fleet who were directly or indirectly trusted by Shrek Academy.
He understood that even if he gave the order to attack now, there wouldn't be many battleships willing to attack the Shrek Academy and Tangmen's fleets.
Only today did he know how much influence the Shrek Academy, which had always been in a neutral position and kept a low profile, had.
They might have never thought of ruling the Federation, but their influence was definitely everywhere.
He took a deep breath and closed his eyes in pain. He said quietly, "Then what should we do now?"
Tang Yaotong sighed and said, "You should know why they're here. Let them pass. Let them pass. We won't be able to stop this from happening. "
Liu Jinyi smiled bitterly and said, "If we let them pass, how will I explain it to the military?"
Tang Yaotong shook his head and said, "No, it should be the military who explains it to the Shrek Academy. The military openly disobeyed the decision of the parliament and went against the order to support the Ryuma Federation. This is a mistake on the side of justice. Since the Shrek Academy and Tangmen's fleets have appeared here, I'm afraid they're really going to make a move. We're soldiers, soldiers who exist to protect the Federation. Let's just wait for the results. We're really not suitable to participate in a political struggle. "
Liu Jinyi looked at Tang Yaotong, then at the high-ranking officers behind him. "Are all of you also involved with the Shrek Academy and Tangmen?"
The lieutenant general who spoke first smiled bitterly and said, "Even if we weren't involved, we wouldn't be willing to go against the Shrek Academy and Tangmen! Don't forget, who doesn't want their descendants to enter the Shrek Academy to study? And the Shrek Academy's Eternal Tree is the life core of the entire Douluo planet. "
Liu Jinyi was silent. After a long while, he slowly said, "I understand. Remove all attack preparations. Contact the Shrek Academy's flagship. "
Tang Yaotong walked to his side and saluted him.
After making a decision, Liu Jinyi relaxed a little. After all, he was a general of the military and controlled a fleet. Even if the military wanted to punish him, it wouldn't be so easy.
He said with a half-smile, "If I don't agree with your decision, are you going to make a move on me too?"
Tang Yaotong smiled bitterly and said, "How can that be? We're old partners after all. We've been brothers for so many years. At most, we'll obstruct you and prevent you from giving orders. Anyway, after this matter is over, I'll accept any punishment. "
Liu Jinyi looked at him deeply and saw Tang Yaotong's calm gaze. He couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "I understand. You're doing this for my own good. Let's meet the Pavilion Master together. "
