The reason for hesitating on whether to save or not is not that the imperial center still doubts Ren Zhong's loyalty, but that the price to be paid to save the Red Front Legion is too high. It is so high that even if Ren Zhong is now
The Fenghou and the newly appointed Chosen Ones represent the future of the empire, which makes people unable to make up their minds for a while.
It may be to completely strangle the Red Edge Legion, or it may be that the three parties realize that too many things were exposed in the previous battle between the Second-Class Mother Queen and the Red Edge Legion. The Ascendants, Pilgrims, and Psychic Demons are also thinking that the Mechanical Empire is not a fool after all, secretly
The matter of the alliance has been exposed, so there is no need to hide it. Anyway, the Machinery Empire is already in a weak position. Even if it knows that the three parties have united, they can't do much. Therefore, the three parties really bring out the bottom of the box.
Today, the Ascendants are in charge of the battle, the Pilgrims are in charge of the management, and the Psychic Demons are in charge of the slave control. After the three factions united, they managed the Yupan Star Territory into an unprecedented three-party complex and deep occupation area in a very short period of time.
.
For today's mechanical empire, the Yupan Star Territory is already someone else's territory.
Instead, the Red Front Legion became a lone army trapped deep in the enemy camp.
In fact, in the second half of this millennium, the Red Front Legion has not received supplies from the Machinery Empire for more than a hundred years. The main energy and material supplies rely entirely on the improved dark matter capture technology and scrap metal recycling.
technology.
If we want to break through the enemy's blockade and give the Red Front Legion a chance to escape, God knows how much troops the Machinery Empire will need to invest.
But no matter what, the Imperial Center did not announce that it would give up Marquis Chifeng, and was still thinking of ways.
In a heated meeting, Duke Ivan Romanov of Wenle got the point right.
He pointed out that with the astonishing personal strength of Chifeng Hou and the capabilities of the giant war machine named Starry Sky Chifeng Armor, no matter how bad the situation of the entire Red Front Army was, Ren Zhong himself would actually have nothing to worry about anyway.
If Ren Zhong really wants to escape, he only needs to transfer his core tribesmen to the Starry Sky Red Front Armor, reserve enough energy, and then let the rest of the entire legion stay behind and be able to evacuate at any time.
But as we all know, Marquis Chifeng has a very weird temperament. He is not like an orthodox imperial noble at all. Not only does he like to charge into battle personally, but he is also never willing to sacrifice his people easily.
If it were left to his own temperament, the probability that he and his clansmen would die together was much greater than the probability of him escaping alone.
Therefore, what the empire should do now is to issue a clear retreat order to Ren Zhong, ordering him to abandon his people and retreat alone.
Prince Ivan's proposal was widely recognized.
Later, Duke Ivan said that based on his research on Chifenghou, if he wants to violate his original intention, he must provide him with a sufficiently reasonable step. It can be clearly stated in the order that if Chifenghou refuses to carry out the order, he will be
will be punished with treason.
This sounds a bit bluffing. But since Marquis Chifeng is so loyal to the empire, he will definitely understand the difficulties of the center when he is safe.
The Prince Regent agreed to Duke Ivan's proposal and entered the plan into the Imperial Supernet for simulation demonstration.
The evaluation result given by Supernet is that the solution is feasible, has a very high success rate, and is the best option at present.
At this meeting, only Zhenjiang Hou Jinshi, the commander-in-chief of the Three Domains War, slightly expressed a different opinion.
Jin Shi thinks this is simply ridiculous. Others are working hard for the empire on the front lines, but those of you who stay comfortably at the center of the empire can think of threatening the frontline generals with treason.
What a talent!
But after all, Jin Shi is a soft-spoken person, so she can't change anything, and she can't tell her true conjecture yet.
According to the logic of the center of the Mechanical Empire, Chifeng Hou Ren Zhong is a person who is mindless and foolishly loyal to His Majesty. Then Duke Ivan’s proposal will not be rejected, nor will it be difficult for Ren Chong to get off. Instead, it will be a life-saving step.
But deep down in her heart, Jin Shi didn't really believe in Ren Zhong's psychological review report.
The reason is very simple. When she first participated in the psychological examination, she was evaluated as "loyalty is questionable."
It is precisely because of this evaluation that, despite her military exploits, she is only a mere marquis, and cannot be admitted to the center of the empire. The reason why she has been able to achieve great success in the Far Frontier Star Territory has never been a gift from the royal family, but
It's my own abilities and the old team I brought back from my hometown.
Ren Zhong's situation is similar to her own, even better than others.
Then Jin Shi has reason to believe that Ren Zhong and herself are actually the same kind of people. Therefore, Ren Zhong's psychological examination report is not reliable.
But she couldn't say it out loud.
…
Ren Zhong, who was sitting in the control room of the Starry Sky Red Front Armor, saw this jointly signed order from the center.
He didn't take it seriously, just smiled and threw it into the dustbin of the watch system.
Sun Ai actually said something fair.
"This Ivan Romanov is indeed insidious. Although he has never seen you at all, he actually saw through you. This is to make it difficult for you to get off the ground."
Ren Zhong chuckled, "It doesn't matter. This treason is just a thing to scare people. Even if I really disobey, the Mechanical Empire will still support me honestly. Throughout history, the relationship between the Chosen One and the Mechanical Empire,
In fact, it is not that the former is dependent on the latter. When each Chosen One was at its peak, the two sides were in a cooperative relationship."
"The so-called loyalty and treason are meaningless. What binds the relationship between the two parties is nothing more than the natural and absolute alliance status of being both native humans. The reason why the chosen ones in the past eventually became vassals of the empire, in the final analysis
Or they don't have eternal lifespan. They will either age and die, or they will have to freeze and sleep and leave offspring to show the meaning of their struggling life. But I am different. I don't have such worries. I can't leave offspring, but
He won’t die either.”
Ren Zhong thought about it again, and then made arrangements: "Okay, we have been going around in the Yupan Star Territory for too long, and we have enough energy reserves. It's almost time to leave. Help me bring up the star map. I'll
Look again."
Sun Ai hummed, and a large star map covering the three major star regions appeared in front of Ren Zhong.
Ren Zhong's eyes first fell on the edge of the disc-shaped Jade Disk Starfield. That represented the location of the Red Front Legion.
Then, Ren Zhong's eyes turned to the other side, and he zoomed in slightly.
His eyes gradually became a little fiery, and his heartbeat accelerated slightly.
It was an ultra-long arc that spanned the entire Far Frontier Star Territory. It was a subspace passage that should not have existed in the universe.
In this passage, a planet ship is coming at ten times the speed of light.
Ren Zhong waited in the Yupan Star Territory for a thousand years, and finally arrived at his true hometown in the Gupan Galaxy.
