After Ji Xinghe's "escape", everyone who knew the inside story was worried, but what they worried about did not happen.

Han Li, Jackson, and Lowitch did not lead the Enemy Independence Group, the Bald Eagle Independence Group, or the Holy Independence Group to follow Ji Xinghe, but obeyed orders as always.

There have not been a large number of mechanics and mechanics who have threatened to retire or leave the alien planet and apply to go to Base 6.

The most important thing is that Su He, who did not follow Ji Xinghe to Base 6 but wandered around filming interviews, also did not make any movements.

It's like Ji Xinghe really just went to be the commander of the No. 6 base theater, and the behavior of running away at the high-level meeting of federal generals did not exist.

Neither side disclosed the true inside story, let alone used public opinion as a weapon.

No one had any doubts because of the sudden 'disappearance' of Ji Xinghe and the Independent Regiment. The alien planet was really too big and there were still many war zones. It was actually normal for them to disappear for a short period of time due to some combat mission they had accepted.

People were even looking forward to it, and the news that the Independent Regiment won again would appear in the army briefing.

As a result, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, including Ji Xinghe and the others.

On the seventh day after Ji Xinghe and his independent regiment arrived at Base 6, news about Ji Xinghe and the independent regiment finally appeared. It was different from the victory news that people expected, but it was accepted by people.

Ji Xinghe became the commander of the No. 6 Base Theater. At the same time, based on war needs, the independent regiment changed from a ground mecha corps to an orbital airborne mecha corps.

Without the latter sentence, this news would definitely cause an uproar. How could Ji Xinghe and his independent regiment go to the No. 6 base theater where there is no war?

But with this latter sentence, the meaning is completely different.

Although the Azure Independent Regiment, which was previously responsible for orbital airborne support, was equipped with 300 Mountain Killer Armors as standard, its combat power was never as good as that of the Trap Independent Regiment, the Bald Eagle Independent Regiment, and the Holy Independent Regiment.

Under intense war conditions, it is even more difficult to provide more comprehensive and effective support.

Naturally, no one doubted the fighting strength of the independent regiment, so this news even improved the morale of the entire army.

Which army doesn't want to see an independent regiment falling from the sky when it encounters difficulties?

Even if there is only one hope, then people will not despair.

Even if there is no independent group, only Ji Xinghe, the hope it can bring is worthy of everyone's expectations.

In the official announcement, Ji Xinghe, who had just been promoted to three-star general of the Federation, in addition to becoming the commander of the No. 6 base theater, also became the commander of the federal orbital airborne mecha corps, making it more reasonable for the independent regiment to become an orbital airborne mecha corps.

, and is more in line with Ji Xinghe’s three-star general’s military rank and military achievements.

You must know that the newly established Federal Orbital Airborne Mecha Corps does not have a prefix like 'First' in front of it, nor does it have a prefix like Trap, Holy, or Bald Eagle. This also means that Ji Xinghe is theoretically responsible for

The Federation's most powerful mecha unit.

It is indeed the most powerful mecha unit, because before, only special-grade mecha warriors were able to carry out orbital airborne combat missions.

Of course, most people don't know that Ji Xinghe's position as commander of the army is very prestigious.

The Azure Independent Regiment, which belongs to the command sequence of the Orbital Airborne Mecha Corps, is only nominally under the jurisdiction of Ji Xinghe, and actually only accepts orders from the Nantianmen Command. The second orbital airborne mecha that is being formed is similar to the Azure Independent Regiment.

Corps, same thing.

The only thing Ji Xinghe can manage is his independent group, but that's not important.

Another issue that was not mentioned in the official announcement but is inevitable is that Ji Xinghe and his independent group will have to obtain logistical supplies, weapons resources, etc. according to the relevant standards of mercenaries.

But it can be said that Ji Xinghe has had a privilege a long time ago, which is to exchange military achievements for resources. This privilege was later carried forward by the ace mecha warriors of the independent group, so now it is actually a matter of changing the soup without changing it.

Medicine also did not cause any controversy.

Everything was in order, and the waves disappeared before splashing, as if Ji Xinghe had not left.

…………

Empire Star.

Seventeen days and thirteen hours have passed in Azure Star standard time since the death of King Zhenbei.

The imperial prince, who had narrowed his defense lines and finally stabilized the situation in the Gods Mountain, once again appeared on the planet where he was born.

In fact, not much time had passed since it left this planet to go to another planet, but its state of mind was extremely different.

The high spirits of the past have long since disappeared, and he is filled with fear of his own fate.

After arriving at the outskirts of Emperor Wu City in a spaceship without any weapon configuration, the prince hesitated not to enter the city, but he could not delay for long, and there was no point in delaying any longer, so he could only arrive as if he had accepted his fate.

Imperial City.

It once thought that it could inherit this imperial city like a military fortress and the planet beneath its feet, but now...

"I'm back."

Aida Kang came to greet the prince's return with a kind expression, really like an uncle who loves his nephew.

"I'm sorry." The prince knew very well what Aida Kang's attitude was towards him, and also knew that Aida Kang's attitude was now very important to him. He admitted his mistake as soon as they met: "When you failed before, I didn't know that it was not you.

's fault."

The smile on Aida Kang's face tends to expand.

"It doesn't matter, you just laughed a little too loudly, I don't care."

The prince's heart tightened, and after apologizing again and again, he asked: "Who is my father?"

"Your father is not too angry. As you just said, he knows very well that it is not your fault."

"Then I..."

"You are still the prince."

"Really?" The prince didn't believe it, but he still had hope.

"Really." Aida Kang said in a gentle tone: "Your father has no intention of changing the prince, and they may not be able to do better than you."

"But I..."

"I've said it before, it's not your fault, it's Ji Xinghe's fault. You have to know that even I lost to him. Although you shouldn't have lost to him, it's really not your fault."

"Uncle Wang, I feel much better when you say this. Please believe me, I will definitely do it in the future..."

While they were talking, the two orangutans had already arrived at the Political Palace.

It was not the time for a court meeting, but all the important officials of the empire were gathered here, which made the prince's heart, which had just been relaxed, become tense again.

After following Aida Kang in, it didn't even dare to raise its head to look at Emperor Wu III sitting on the throne. When it lowered its head and was about to say something, it heard Emperor Wu III's voice.

"You go to Mine Star No. 3 and don't come back again."

The prince looked up in horror and saw the indifferent expression of Emperor Wu III.

He opened his mouth to say something, but found that invisible pressure had already hit his face, solidifying his body like the eternal ice in the polar regions.

It used its last strength to turn its head and look at Aida Kang.

Aida Kang looked at it expressionlessly, saying nothing, but his eyes seemed to be repeating the words it just said, but the meaning had a huge change - you laughed too loudly before

Already.

"Take him out."

Emperor Wu III really didn't give the prince any chance. After letting his personal guards take the immobile prince away, he looked at the orangutans and monkeys in the palace and asked: "You just said that we should negotiate with the Federation? I

I want to hear your reasons again."

"..."

No one dared to speak again.

The prince was just defeated. He didn't even have a chance to say a word, and was thrown to the No. 3 mine star by Emperor Wu III. What else could they say?

They don't want to go to the Empire's No. 3 Mineral Planet. The environment there is more than ten times worse than that of the alien planet. Plus, there is a new crown prince who must be going crazy...

"Aren't you talking anymore?" Emperor Wu III called by name: "Aida Kang, please tell me."

Aida Kang stood up: "I think we can't negotiate with the Federation, let alone give the Federation a chance to breathe. The Federation's technology is developing very fast, especially after they have the formula of tungsten steel alloy, their energy weapon technology

It will definitely develop rapidly. If you give them more time, they may even develop the jump gate technology, and then the war will spread to our empire. So, I think we should continue to fight."

Didn’t you tell the formula of tungsten steel alloy after you were captured by Ji Xinghe?

The Federation has a chance to crack the jump gate technology, isn't it because you lost the jump base in Battle Scar Canyon?

The important ministers of the empire were full of accusations, but they did not dare to accuse him.

Emperor Wu III did not blame Aida Kang, but instead gave the power of inheritance to Aida Kang. What can they say?

Emperor Wu III still has the final say over the entire empire. Does it really make sense whether they say it or not?

The last struggle from the imperial ministers was forcibly suppressed by Emperor Wu III.

"Then who do you think should be allowed to go?" Emperor Wu III asked again.

When the current crown prince returned to the Imperial Star, the Imperial Expeditionary Force was temporarily led by a Grand Duke similar to Yinan, but he was obviously not qualified.

Aida Kang bowed and said: "I think the most important thing is not who should go to the alien planet to lead the expeditionary force, but to find a way to let Ji Xinghe and the elite mecha warriors of the Federation come to our empire star."

An important minister couldn't hold back and said: "But you just said that the war should not be allowed to spread to our empire star."

"It's different." Aida Kang said: "It's like a mountain fire. If it is not controlled, it will spread to the entire mountain range. But as long as the path of the mountain fire is blocked, the mountain fire will be limited to a certain range.

.”

"How to control it?" Another important minister stood up and said: "The Federation has space battleships, orbital-class ballistic missiles, and nuclear weapons. If we let them come, we will have no control at all."
To be continued...
