For a son of man, this was a very difficult question, but Li Feng's answer was not difficult at all. He looked at the few wisps of smoke in the depths of the tombs and replied with an expressionless face, "I don't know."
Three years ago, when he rushed back to the capital ring from the frontlines, he kicked open the door to Lee Jae-do's office and roared in anger to the point of madness, but in the end, he could not take out the gun at his waist and shoot his biological father behind the desk into a beehive. In the countless nights after that, the young Federation colonel had thought about this situation that made him feel cold and sad many times, but he could not find any conclusion.
After Du Shaoqing heard his answer, after a moment of silence, he slowly took off the black lambskin glove and held it in his hand. He pointed at the mountains behind the tombs and changed the topic, "That princess is definitely waiting for me to leave. Although I am not arrogant, I must admit that the imperial people will definitely think that my departure is their opportunity."
He looked at Li Feng and slowly said, "But although I am leaving, you must deliver the gift I left for that princess. In the battle of the straits, if we can tear off the fattest piece of meat on the Imperial armies, Mo Hua Planet can at least maintain the balance for half a year, and by that time, I should probably be back."
Li Feng thought of the top secret military deployment plan that had been passed around in the command center last night, and the way he looked back at Du Shaoqing had some subtle changes. If that deployment was really successful, the imperial army that intended to take advantage of the situation to launch a large-scale counterattack would suffer a heavy blow at the straits. After a slight pause, he used ordinary words to give the most powerful promise.
"Commander, I will definitely deliver the surprise you gave to Huai Caoshi personally."
"Although I will be bringing the seventh division back this time, it will not affect the balance of power between the two sides. I even wanted to bring the seventeenth division back, but I was stopped."
Du Shaoqing's eyebrows suddenly furrowed, and a rare trace of irritation appeared in his indifferent eyes. He said coldly, "Commander Yu is officially retired. I am a bit worried about leaving your grandfather's iron division on Mo Hua Planet."
He came from the third military region, and the undefeated Iron Seventh Division and the seventeenth armored division that carried the glory of the god of war were the two peaks of the Federal military that could not coexist, but Li Feng did not doubt the truth of the other's words.
The so-called bearing, vision, and breadth of mind decided how far a person could go on the road of life. Du Shaoqing was already the Federation's frontline commander, and in his eyes, every Federal forces, every Federation soldier was an important point that he had to pay attention to, let alone an important unit like the seventeenth division.
However, as a famous general, Du Shaoqing was actually worried that the frontline troops would be harmed by some invisible force. It was really hard to imagine. Only Li Feng, who was on the frontline and knew the Federation's political situation and the changes in the upper echelons, understood why he was worried.
Because of the explosion of the Antique Bell, the terrorist attack on Parliament Hill, and Xu Le's defection, the Federation's capital ring had a strange political atmosphere in the past few years. The Federation government led by President Pabre seized more power through elections and street campaigns. In the face of the counterattacks launched by the big families and the rumors circulating in society, the government began to use tough means and formed a joint unit made up of the Bureau of Proclamation, the Federation Investigation Bureau, and a special operations department. After an unprecedentedly fierce debate on Parliament Hill, the joint unit obtained a very rare high-level authority and began to silently wander among the various departments of the government, investigating the spies that the big families had planted in the government and cleaning up the employees who disobeyed the government's orders.
At the same time, the Federation government asked the people to make sacrifices for this costly space war and the internal strife in society. They vigorously promoted the spirit of self-discipline and dedication and tried to use powerful media to suppress most of the opposing opinions, making the entire Federation a powerful fist. However, both Mr. President and Lee Jae-do seemed to have forgotten that once they began to protect the government's authority through secret investigations, the government would always rely on the deterrence brought by the secret investigations. Once they began to suppress opposing opinions through the media, the government would always rely on the surface peace brought by the suppression of news. Once they began to use the extremely impactful crimes of sabotaging the war and attempting to betray the country to protect their rule, they would have to face the reality that these crimes were becoming more and more boring by the day. They could only come up with new and more explosive words.
A political scholar from the Capital University had already named the changes in the Federation politics in the past three years as the Pabre Doctrine. He commented with undisguised mockery that if creating a panic atmosphere was the only way to keep the Federation government going, then it would be better to invite the Emperor of Empire to be the president. It should be known that the Emperor of Empire was definitely better at this than Mr. Pabre.
Afterward, this political scholar was invited by the Joint Investigation Department, which had extremely high authority, to investigate. Although the Joint Investigation Department released the scholar ten days later under pressure from many parties, at the hearing, the government presented evidence that the scholar had received funding from the Xiu Shu Foundation.
The next day, the Federation Academic Committee criticized the scholar in the name of improper acceptance of academic donations and involvement in academic corruption. Although the Capital University did not fire the scholar, they still persuaded him to resign from his position as the dean of the department.
…
…
Xu Le was exposed as a citizen of Empire. The two people that President Pabre admired the most were only left with Du Shaoqing, and he did not disappoint the president and many people. Whether it was when he was the commander of the Iron Seventh Division or when he later commanded all the Federal forces on the frontline, every victory that Du Shaoqing had in the Zuotian Galaxy increased President Pabre's public support by a few percentage points. The endless news of victories on the frontline also successfully diluted the current dark color of the Federation politics.
Because the former commander-in-chief Du Shaoqing was deeply trusted by the Federation, the secret investigation department that echoed like a cold wind among the Federation's administrative districts was temporarily unable to extend its tentacles into the military. At least, it did not have the power to have any influence on the situation on the frontline.
However, something happened two months ago. Zhou Yu, who was now the commander of the second regiment of the Iron Seventh Division, was ordered to return to the Capital Star Ring to enlist resources. When he was about to embark on his return journey, he was forcibly taken away by the secret investigation department at the military base. They accused him of receiving secret funding from the Xiu Shu Foundation while he was studying at the First Military Academy. He had to undergo strict investigation to prevent the evil family forces from infiltrating the pure and solemn Federal forces.
Did the seven families infiltrate the Federal military? Of course, except for the Zhong family in the West Woods. The Li family had always wanted to marry the Lees of Philadelphia. Li Xiaotong still maintained his status as an active military officer. The Nan family had always been inextricably linked with the military logistics system. As for the only heir of the Mochou family, he had once fought in the frontline.
However, when the old man by the Lake of Philadelphia was alive, these families could not have any influence on the Federal forces. Now that the old man had passed away, how could President Pabre and Lee Jae-do allow this to happen?
