can not live up to

In the late autumn of 5332, Yun Tianxiao made a surprise attack on planet Disu No. 10, officially kicking off the prelude to declaring war on the empire.

After that, from autumn to winter, from spring to summer, in just one year, the battle situation changed several times.

The AFAR Army and the Imperial Fleet have fought against each other several times, and each has its own outcome.

In the unpredictable battle, both sides have experienced unprecedented heavy losses, and both have suffered unprecedented serious injuries.

This one is like a disparity struggle between ants and elephants. As time goes by, it seems to become more and more impossible to see the end and guess the ending.

It is another year of autumn wind and rustling.

Emperor Qin Xuan, who cleared away the adverse effects of Fu Yuxia's defection, personally took over the research and development of the dark matter engine that was originally controlled by Fu Yuxia.

If the Imperial Fleet wants to return to its peak military strength as quickly as possible, the dark matter engine will undoubtedly be the biggest boost.

The Qiankun seems to be powerful, but what can be loaded is only a semi-finished dark matter engine.

This appalling fact also caused quite a shock to the top management of the empire.

After the gravitational wave arrest warrant was issued, Fu Yuxia, who defected, was not arrested and brought to justice.

As if the Qiankun had disappeared into the vast universe, it was still unable to detect a trace of it.

Qi Mengliang asked Ying to take charge of the pursuit of Fu Yuxia, and continued to expand the scope of the search.Under his persistent tracking, he finally detected a small number of suspected Qiankun at the edge of the tail Mars area.

The finely divided material of the wreckage.

Qi Mengliang reported the matter to Qin Xuan immediately, and followed Qin Xuan's instructions, and directly sent the suspected debris to the current dark matter engine research and development core team.After their careful inspection

According to an authoritative explanation, the fact that Fu Yuxia concealed the fact that the first-generation dark matter engine was actually only a semi-finished product was revealed to the world.

The upper echelons of the empire were in an uproar.

As for the specific whereabouts of the Qiankun and Fu Yuxia, according to further analysis and speculation by the R&D team, it is very likely that Fu Yuxia caused the performance disorder of the semi-finished dark matter engine during his defection, which eventually led to

This caused the dark matter engine to self-destruct and trigger a powerful explosion.Because the degree of fineness of the suspected wreckage is obviously caused by a short-term violent shock wave, and such a powerful

The destructive power also comes from inside the Qiankun.

At this point, both the man and the machine on the Qiankun died, and there were no bones left, which marked the end of Fu Yuxia's defection.

The arrogant and arrogant Fu Yuxia brought her own demise just like this with her favorite work, Qiankun, which really makes people want to sigh and sigh that it's her own fault.

The upper echelons of the empire originally placed great expectations on the dark matter engine, but after learning the "truth" about the self-destruct of the Qiankun, no one dared to venture into it again.

After all, life is precious, they know it better than anyone else, and they cherish it more than anyone else.

Qin Xuan, the emperor of the empire, was naturally more calm. While steadily controlling the development process of the dark matter engine, he stepped up the manufacture of the empire's level 9 warp starship according to the original arrangement, and slowly restored the empire's frontier.

The military equipment in each star area in the domain.

This time, Qin Yuan, the economic minister, did not stop him, but instead gave Qin Xuan the greatest financial support he could give.

After all, although Fu Yuxia died, the influence of the Fu faction in the empire has almost disappeared, and other factions are too An Ansheng to dare to make mistakes, but the AFAR army is still there, even if Yun Tianxiao is dead,

However, the AFAR army is still eyeing the empire in the Xinyue star area.

In Qin Yuan's heart, he did not want the empire and the AFAR army to continue this state of confrontation where they hated each other and could fight at any time.

However, from her position as the Minister of Economy, she also knew that one day, she had to face such a day.

On the other side, the Xinyue star area.

The morale of the AFAR army, which has lost its coach, is indeed unprecedentedly high. Everyone is full of energy and fire.

They are not afraid of war, they look forward to war.

Tang Di, who took over as the head coach of the AFAR army, was as calm as ever.

After the news of the self-destruction of the Qiankun was confirmed, it didn't take long for it to spread to the Xinyue star area, and then to the AFAR army.

Undoubtedly good news.

Some senior generals in the AFAR army suggested that we might as well take advantage of the chaos within the empire and the end of the crisis on the Qiankun to directly dispatch starships to recover the lost territories of the previously occupied star regions, and even

Take the opportunity to capture more empire territory in one fell swoop.

But Tang Di did not agree, thinking that for the current AFAR army, such a move is still too presumptuous and too aggressive.

Some people are not convinced, and some are puzzled.

Tang Di's usual style was not to explain too much, even when Yun Tianxiao was alive before, it was naturally still the case this time.

Tang Di ordered the troops to divide into two groups, and continue to follow his and Yun Tianxiao's previous strategy to attack the marginal and weak planets in the star regions of the empire in small groups.

Form teams and starships.After all, when the two armies are facing each other, hard power is the most important thing.Thanks to the previous infiltration plan of the AFAR army, the planets that Tang Di arranged to attack all resisted very passively, and some planets could even

It is said that they are quite cooperative, so the AFAR army has successfully recruited many teams, and even recruited many imperial starships.

This kind of situation is a bit like, the empire spends time, effort and money to manufacture new starships in a hurry, but in the end, if you don't pay attention, it may be in the hands of the AFAR army.

The few doubts about Tang Di in the AFAR army disappeared easily with this situation.

The other group of elites arranged by Tang Di is responsible for leading the remaining soldiers of the AFAR army, strict military discipline, hard training, and only one purpose, to prepare for the war.

Between the AFAR Army and the Empire, sooner or later, the Great War will break out.

They have been preparing.

They are always waiting.

Prepare to wait until that order is given, they will fight to the end with all their strength.

For their unfulfilled wishes and ideals of General Yun.

For all beings in this universe to survive with more dignity.

Tang Di firmly turned the AFAR army's belief in Yun Tianxiao into an invincible force that held the AFAR army together.

It was night, Qin Xuan and Tang Di connected their exclusive subspace communicator as before, and exchanged their respective progress.

"When spring comes, my side will be almost ready." Tang Di said.This is news that will make everyone in the AFAR army excited, but Tang Di's voice is a little downcast.

"Well, there is not much difference in the strength of the two armies, and the imperial fleet is estimated to be retreating steadily." Qin Xuan predicted the future situation in advance.

"At that time, you will really become the only foolish emperor in the history of the empire." Tang Di's voice became even more unhappy.

History speaks for itself.Qin Xuan didn't mind being a fatuous master temporarily.

"General Tang can just take this opportunity to show off his demeanor." Although the two of them corresponded daily, most of the things they talked about were business matters.Speaking of which, it seems that neither of them understand anything.

People who are emotional are too serious.Qin Xuan prefers a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere between the two of them. Although the situation does not allow it completely, he will still pay attention to adjusting it if possible, such as

Just like now, in the middle of this very serious topic, there is a slightly joking sentence interspersed.

In this way, it has always been very effective for Tang Di on the other end of the screen.

"Brother..." Sure enough, Tang Di's voice softened, not at all like General Tang who ordered the AFAR army to go up and down.

On the sofa, "Brother, I really want to end this confrontation as soon as possible."

Tang Di acted coquettishly in a rare way.

He and Qin Xuan met when they were young and ignorant, and they got along day and night in the first two years, but in the following many years, they had to live a life separated from each other.The subspace communicator became the two of them

closest companions.

Although he has no complaints or regrets, it would be a lie if he said he didn't miss her.

But Tang Di seldom expresses such emotions directly.

But today, for some reason, he woke up early in the morning with a surge of emotion in his heart. It's been a whole day, and he finally persisted until now, but he couldn't hold it back anymore.

He missed Qin Xuan very much today, and then couldn't wait to blurt out this miss.

This was very uncomfortable for Tang Di, so Tang Di's face turned slightly red, and he almost pinched his fingertips again.

"That would be difficult. After all, the emaciated camels of the empire are bigger than horses. The confrontation between the AFAR army and the empire will not be short." As for being a master at destroying the atmosphere, Qin Xuan should really do his part.

The cold water is not enough, and I have to add another bucket of ice cubes, "Besides, Qin Ming still has a little experience, so he won't be able to use it for the time being." There was a bit of anger at his brother's progress not fast enough in his tone, what an emperor

It's not easy to be my younger brother.

When Qin Ming was mentioned, it was easy to think of Yun Tianxiao.

"Speaking of which, Yun Tianxiao is actually a very good instructor." Qin Xuan sighed quietly.

Although he just ran on his younger brother who was not present, it must be admitted that during the time when he was by Yun Tianxiao's side, Qin Ming can be said to have undergone a complete growth and change.

And Yun Tianxiao is a very outstanding military genius, Qin Xuan and Tang Di always sigh when thinking about the ending he chose for himself.

Although Qin Xuan had different beliefs, he always respected Yun Tianxiao.

Tang Di and Yun Tianxiao have cooperated for many years, so naturally they also have a kind of sympathy for him as both a teacher and a friend.

Originally, they might be able to smile at the many pasts one day in the future, and then walk on the same road.

"Okay, don't mention this." Qin Xuan and Tang Di have enough things to deal with every day, so there is no reason for them to continue to be serious and united during the rare communication time between the two.

"There is another reason, I forgot to mention just now, although I am about to launch the Hunjun Renren design, but I have not yet reached the level of smiling for a confidante and playing with the princes, this concubine, don't you think so?" Qin Xuan not only

Good at destroying the atmosphere, but also quite good at creating the atmosphere.And I still haven't forgotten the previous topic, that is, although the character set of the faint king has not been launched yet, the character set of the absurd man is acting smoothly and naturally.

"Brother! No, Your Majesty the Emperor! How decent are you!" Tang Di was still a little melancholy, but he was really ashamed and angry after hearing Qin Xuan's words.What beauty?Could it be that he has become a disaster for the country?

Nothing?

Seeing this, Qin Xuan covered his lips with a sullen smile, and then coaxed people as if admitting defeat, "Slip of the tongue, pure slip of the tongue, the suave young man opposite me should be Lan Yan."

What blue face and red face, this is not the key at all.

He just thought of something today, and wanted to hear a few more words about himself, but in the end, the teasing words filled his ears first.

Tang Di really didn't want to talk to Qin Xuan anymore, he couldn't have a good chat at all.

General Tang's little thoughtfulness had never been able to hide from Qin Xuan before, and now naturally he couldn't hide from the wise and mighty emperor in front of him.

Qin Xuan first took advantage of his mouth, and then began to show affection.

"What day is it today, I will naturally remember."

Today is really a special day.

In the past, on a certain day of a certain year, a certain month and a certain day, people at both ends of the screen were like this, and for some reason they were inattentive, confessed their sincerity and confessed their love to each other, and incidentally made each other blush.

I think it's a day that should be remembered well.

Hearing this, Tang Di raised his head and looked at Qin Xuan, his eyes were shining with stars, exactly the same as him that night that year.

Qin Xuan couldn't help but feel flustered in his heart, the person in front of him was becoming more and more provocative now without knowing it.

"The situation does not permit, so the gift will be waived first. However, you can keep an account, and you can ask me for it in the future." Qin Xuan is old and should be generous, so he said it very proudly.

"What about you, big brother, what gift do you want?" Tang Di is naturally a very polite person who comes here and does not reciprocate.

"I've thought about it earlier, and I will remember it for you every year. In the future, I will pay you back one by one, and I will never take advantage of you." Anyway, there is no business tonight, and it seems that it doesn't matter if you tease me again.

It was rare for Qin Xuan to let himself go.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, you really care about pennies and pennies."

"Properly managed, diligent and thrifty housekeeping, it should be."

This night, the night was beautiful and the stars were shining brightly. Because of the two people at both ends of the screen, the subspace communicator seemed to be filled with honey, exuding a tempting sweetness.

The winter of this year in the empire was particularly long, and it seemed that the shadow of spring could not be seen.

But no matter how long the winter is, there will be a day when it will pass.

The footsteps of spring are approaching step by step.

When the spring flowers are finally blooming and the willows are finally turning green, the AFAR army, under the leadership of Tang Di, took the initiative to start a new battle that has been brewing for a long time, directly targeting the central star area of ​​the empire!
