93 Chapter ninety-three
Gao Li's thinking was a bit leaping. Just as he was talking about whether Colonel Carter was very concerned about Major Lan Shan's topic. In a blink of an eye, he jumped to an interesting piece of news I just heard yesterday.
I didn't see Colonel Carter hitting his shoulder and asked mysteriously, "Hey, I heard yesterday that you actually ordered a Newman Star Gem Rose worth 60 million from Salina's uncle some time ago. They thought you were going to propose to, but after waiting for so long, I was quite disappointed."
Salina is Gao Li’s closest girlfriend, and her uncle is the largest jeweler in Capital Star.
Colonel Carter was very dissatisfied. “Does these people still have credit? How do they do business?! They can actually leak customers’ information! Don’t want me to buy his stuff next time.”
Gao Li laughed dryly, "It's not that serious. Salina was so curious that she came to ask me quietly. Everyone else promised not to know, even your mother, Princess Anne, didn't know anything."
Major Carter snorted, "If he dares to let my mother know about this, I will let my father buy his jewelry company! See how he will leak customer information in the future."
Gao Li wiped his cold sweat from Salina's uncle, thinking that you were just like you, and he was so embarrassed to say that I was spoiled by my father!
This kind of behavior of wanting his father to acquire someone else's company is really spoiled, okay?
It is not an exaggeration to say that Mr. Carter's money is enough to form the Fourth Legion of the Empire. Looking at his son, Colonel Carter, who is very rich, Gao Li often couldn't help but want to hit him even if he was Colonel Carter's friend.
Shaking his head, he shook out the violent thought that would definitely affect friendship between friends, and asked again, "You are so generous, who do you like?" He frowned and confused, "I have seen you have been alone recently, and it seems that you have not found a new girlfriend."
Colonel Carter shut his mouth and showed his actions that he refused to answer this very eye-loss question.
Gao Li was even more curious, "Who is it? What's the relationship between us? You won't even hide it from me!"
After asking for a long time, Colonel Carter spoke awkwardly, "It's the woman your brother just wanted to have a terminal certification signature." Then he explained, "Because she helped me a lot when working in Agatha's temporary affairs team, I gave her these Newman Star gems to express my gratitude."
Gao Li kept twitching. Because he had a relationship with Colonel Carter from childhood to adulthood, he had a good relationship, so he didn't have to tactfully interfere with each other and directly exposed him, "You don't have to cover up this, expressing gratitude, why don't you give me a gem rose?" He touched his chin and thought, "But I think Major Lan Shan is a person with a personality and is definitely not easy to be impressed. In this image, if you hold the 60 million Newman Star Gem Rose to confess to others, the success rate is 100% higher than 99%, but it is not necessarily true for her."
Colonel Carter was not upset, "Yes, you can see it once."
Gao Li suddenly laughed out loud, "You were rejected by saying so!" He patted his friend's shoulder to comfort him, "Eddie, think about it, this should not be your problem, it is because Major Lanshan is a bit special. I guess we are all little guys in her eyes and are not mature enough."
Colonel Carter wondered, "Why do you say that?"
Gao Li's upturned mouth suddenly closed and he said depressedly, "Because she said that." After thinking about it, he felt that it was too shameful to just give himself an example, so he pulled out another one to serve as his companion, "She also commented on Mr. Thomas this way."
By analogy, Colonel Carter must also be classified as the [little guy] in Lan Shan's eyes.
Colonel Carter was very dissatisfied with this, thinking that he was careless about making friends, so why did he get a childish and unintentional guy like Gao Li, "She said you are little guys, you are little guys? Why are you so unconfident? Are you still Major Lan Shan's instructor? Did you teach her or she teach you? Anyway, I definitely won't think I am a little guy."
It is obvious that he is more steady and mature between him and Lan Shan. He always has to worry about the important things about money and medicine.
Gao Li, "—" He is just a physical instructor!
The general knowledge of the person who decided not to confess to this love was the one who failed, "Okay, okay, we are naive and you are mature."
Colonel Carter immediately left after getting the advanced mental soothing agent obtained by his childish friend. Although he would follow the next batch of material supply ships to the Giza Star Group this time, he would not go to the front line. Judging from what the meaning there, Lan Shan would soon go to Elsa Star. Colonel Carter had to arrange a safe person to send the mental soothing agent to her.
Lan Shan was also preparing for the departure at this time. The Noah, the large starship in the Noah fleet, was seriously damaged in the Battle of Mastaba, and could not be used for the time being, so there were no large starships in the second legion of the attack on Aisha Star this time.
However, several large starships of the Vess were also lost in the Battle of Mastaba Star. Now they definitely do not have large starships that can be used on Isa Star, so this is not a problem.
It is just because the carrying capacity of large starships is super strong, if there are large starships in a fleet, most of the supplies of the entire fleet will be loaded on this large starship to improve the speed and flexibility of the entire fleet.
What you need to do now is to disperse the supplies brought by the Noah to other starships before departure.
Lan Shan took someone to take a look and felt that the number of energy stones, nutrients, various agents, and even small therapeutic devices was insufficient, so it should be increased by at least another 50%.
Gu Han calculated again in his mind, and then asked in surprise, "Is it still so much? Why do I think enough? Carrying too many of these things will also affect the speed of the fleet."
Lan Shan shook her head, "It should be enough to go to Elsa Star to carry out a small-scale battle, but just in case, we still need to be more accurate."
Gu Han didn't understand why he had to go to Aisha to fight a small-scale battle just in case, wasn't their mission to go to Aisha to expel the remaining troops of Vis? After fighting this small-scale battle mission, it was completed.
But seeing Lan Shan wink at him very lightly, she knew that there were too many people around her at this moment. She probably had any ideas that were inconvenient to say in public, so she closed her mouth and swallowed the question behind her back.
Lan Shan whispered to Meryl, "Meryl, you can prepare the supplies we need on that starship and try to bring as many physical supplements and mental soothing agents as possible."
The last one left in the advanced mental soothing agent that Colonel Carter prepared for her. Although Lan Shan was not prepared for Elsa Star and led the mecha team to fight, on the safe side, she still had to prepare everything she should prepare. At this time, there was no place to get advanced mental soothing agent, so she had to settle for the second best and use the ordinary one to make do.
Meryl knew that Lan Shan was worried that someone would take care of the matter on her starship, so she immediately agreed and turned around and left, "I'll go now."
Her advantage is that she recognizes people but not things. After she recognizes Lan Shan, she trusts unconditionally and never questions. She does whatever Lan Shan asks her to do. As for the fact that it is necessary to prepare more physical supplements, and the mental soothing agent is not enough but what to do, such issues will be directly ignored by Meryl. Anyway, Lan Shan must have her reason for bringing these things.
Although this is a bit unwitting, it is because it is less nonsense and high efficiency. Lan Shan is definitely relieved to tell Meryl what he has to do.
Time is tight. After getting the data counted by Gu Han and Luke, Lan Shan immediately applied for the part that was insufficient.
According to convention, Secretary Nawen needs to review this kind of thing before being shown to General Song.
Lan Shan then took the statistics and his requests to Secretary Nawen first.
Secretary Nawen's reaction was the same as Gu Han. After reading it, he was very surprised, but he still brought her to General Song. However, he expressed his estimates and opinions in a realistic manner. "These supplies are sufficient for Colonel Lanshan's next actions. To be safe, it should be enough to add about 10%."
General Song looked at Lan Shan, "Then why did you ask for another 50% increase? If it's just for the sake of safety, it's really unnecessary. You should know that many things are too much, and the more materials and equipment you don't bring, the better. Carrying too much these things will also affect the flexibility and speed of the fleet's attack."
Lan Shan, "I understand this principle. The reason why I made this request is precisely to increase the flexibility of the Noah fleet's action after arriving at Aisha."
General Song also felt that it was impossible for her to not understand such a simple truth. After hearing this answer, he showed an interesting expression, "Tell me, let me see."
Lan Shan explained, "After the Battle of Mastaba, the strength of the Ves army was already very weak. I guess even if they remained on Essa Star, they must have been ready to evacuate at any time. So this battle of Essa Star is not difficult to fight. For us, the most important thing now is not to regain Essa Star, but to reoccupy the Nasca Mining Belt, because there is a space transfer station established by the Vess. The Vess had fought so hard with us in the Giza Star group, and it was impossible for us to have troops left at the Nasca Space Transfer Station. The Nasca Space Transfer Station should now be the weakest time for defense, so if it goes well, my opinion is that after we recover Essa Star, we should advance to the Nasca Mining Belt immediately, and before their subsequent forces arrived, the Vess had no place to settle down and could only completely retreat."
General Song's eyes flashed slightly, "So what you mean is to bring enough supplies that will allow the Noah fleet to continue attacking the Nasca Mining Star Belt?"
Lan Shan, "Yes."
General Song thoughtfully and said, "Your analysis makes sense, but there are many uncertainties in it. The situation may not be suitable for you to advance to the Nasca Mining Belt immediately after you recover the Aesa Star."
Lan Shan, "I made this request to increase the flexibility of the fleet's offensive, so as not to miss out on opportunities when the situation goes well. If it is not suitable to continue attacking the NASCAR Mine Star, I will not be forced to come."
General Song considered it again and approved her application to increase supplies. "Col. Lanshan, I trust your ability, but I still want to remind you: be cautious!" said in a deep tone, "This caution is not only aimed at Weis' side, but also at our friendly forces."
Lan Shan, "I understand, sir."
After she left, General Song asked Secretary Nawen, "Nawen, what did you think when you first brought Colonel Lanshan in?"
Secretary Nawen touched his nose, "I think it's unlikely that the calculation is wrong. There should be other reasons for her to add so many things, but she didn't expect that she could do this - like this -" She couldn't find the right vocabulary for a while, and paused before she said it, "So enterprising! Before she recovered Elsa Star, she already thought of the Nasca Mining Star Belt behind."
General Song narrowed his eyes and looked at the unknown place and sighed softly, "Yes, be enterprising."
Secretary Nawen couldn't see the emotion on his face and asked tentatively, "Is Colonel Lanshan a bit radical?"
General Song waved his hand, "You said this when she just brought a mecha team to the Narcissus Galaxy One. Looking back now, do you think the word radical is appropriate to describe it?"
Secretary Nawen immediately replied, "That certainly won't work. Colonel Lanshan should be a typical manifestation of ability and confidence."
General Song nodded, "That's right, it's appropriate to say that she is enterprising," he smiled at Secretary Nawen, "You don't have to worry. I am very pleased with my subordinates in this spirit. I just worry that if the advancement speed is too fast, the relationship between us and the First Legion will be difficult to coordinate."
…………
On the way back, Lan Shan met Colonel Neville of the First Legion.
Colonel Neville stood tall by the passage, as if he was coming to find her specifically. When he saw Lanshan coming over, he came to meet him, "Col. Lanshan."
Lan Shan stopped, "Is there anything wrong?"
Colonel Neville, "Yes, I want to invite you to come to me tonight."
Lan Shan said nothing and raised her eyebrows to look at him.
Colonel Neville also felt that his words were a little ambiguous, and coughed and explained, "Sorry, please don't get me wrong. It's not that I'm asking you for something, but that Prince Lance wants to talk to you."
Lan Shan, “Okay, I'll go by at 8 o'clock in the evening.
"Nod to him, "See you tonight." After saying that, he walked over by mistake.
Colonel Neville didn't expect that she would agree so happily, so he was stunned. He wanted to say something more, but found that Lan Shan had left very neatly.
Chapter completed!
