The first thousand one hundred and eighty chapters give up
Revakli Base·Artificial meteorite No. 273.
Federal special garrison base conference room.
I saw several senior federal officials having a heated argument, the most vehement of which was a man who looked quite young, with sharp eyes and a strong aura.
He said very forcefully: "If there is no hope, you must give up!"
Everyone present could not help but lower their heads.
"What does Kimanbu mean? There are our companions on that fortress, and each one of them is very important to us."
At this moment, a steady voice retorted.
Everyone looked over, and the one who spoke to retort was none other than Augustolas!
Since the last time the Stargate was opened and Spade returned to the Federation, Augustus has been assigned to the front line.
"Lord Augustus, there is nothing wrong with what you said. I am also very sad to make this decision. But you have to understand one thing. Freedom Fortress has been missing for more than two years. From the beginning of the disappearance, we have
No matter how many ships and manpower were sent to search, the financial and material resources spent could be used to build another one. But the result? We still found nothing. We have tried every method, and even entrusted the task to the Star Ring City.
Isn’t this enough?”
"Hmph, can our companions be measured in terms of money?"
Augustus objected forcefully.
"Yes, our companions cannot be measured in terms of money. But you also have to consider the search and rescue personnel. How many people have we lost or injured since the beginning of the search? Their lives are also lives. I can't let this happen.
The tragedy keeps repeating itself."
Kimambu stared straight at Augulas without any intention of flinching.
Many non-commissioned officers and congressmen present did not dare to say a word.
Kimambu is a representative of the new generation of hard-liners who are rising in power. He does things vigorously and resolutely and never drags his feet.
That is to say, only the veteran Vice President Augustolas dared to refute this.
"Any act of giving up on a comrade in despair is shameful. No matter how high the price is, we cannot give up. The search and rescue mission is not allowed to be suspended!"
Augustus remained unmoved and must search and rescue to the end. He knew better than anyone else that the people on the fortress were elites from the Federation, not to mention that Li Ruiqi was still on top.
Back then, Li Ruiqi commanded the Federation's first exploration ship, the Black Yao. No one knew his talent better than him.
"Augulas, you are right, but we must also consider the federation. This search and rescue plan consumes too much money from the federation. The federation has finally entered the great era, and it is about to rise. It is impossible to do so in this era.
The project continues to invest money. Let me tell you the truth, just yesterday the federal government parliament passed a decision to suspend financial support for this search and rescue plan, and will cancel the missions on the Star Ring City."
Kimambu showed his cards directly to Augustolas.
Augustus slammed the table and said in a deep voice: "Humph, even if the parliament does not provide financial support, I will continue the search and rescue. I will solve the problems of funds and personnel myself."
"I'm afraid I can't do this, Lord Augustus."
Kimambu rejected it without hesitation.
"It's not your turn to take care of what I want to do, right?"
Augustolas was also a little angry. Although he knew that Kimambu's words made sense, he might have gone too far.
At this time, Kimambu clicked the electronic bracelet on his hand several times, opened an electronic authorization document, and said to Auglas.
"Augulas, the Federal Council has a special order requiring you to set sail from Revaklis and return to the Federation immediately. The Federal Council has a new appointment for you. I hope you can follow the Federation's order, put the overall situation first, and do not
We have no hope for those hopeless things. You know better than anyone what it is like to be lost in the starry sky. There is basically no hope. And don’t count on the Star Ring City. No one will help us for no reason.
The world is so cruel."
After listening to Kimambu's words, Auglas also fell into silence.
At this time, the companions beside Augustolas suddenly became anxious and said to Augustolas one after another.
"Sir, this..."
"Hey~"
Auglas finally sighed helplessly, raised his hand to signal everyone to stop talking, and said to Kimambu: "I will follow the order."
After hearing what Augustolas said, many non-commissioned officers present showed expressions of despair.
But none of them complained, because everyone present knew that what Kimambu said was not unreasonable.
The Federation has paid an extremely high price for the search for the Freedom Fortress, and Augustolas has tried his best. If he hadn't persisted, the search and rescue plan might have been aborted today.
Suddenly the entire conference room fell into dead silence.
A level 5 flagship, the Barracuda, sits quietly there.
A petty officer was delivering some items to the ship.
At the entrance, Kimambu personally led many non-commissioned officers to see off Augustolas.
Kimambu stretched out his hand to Augustolas, and the two held it together.
"Sir Augustus, your contribution to the Federation is obvious to all of us. You will definitely be reused by the Parliament this time and hold a more important position when you return."
"I just did what I had to do."
Augustus replied calmly.
"Sir Augustus, you are so humble..."
Just when Kimambu was about to say goodbye to Augulas.
A subordinate suddenly ran over in a hurry. He was about to report something. When he saw Augulas, he suddenly changed his words and said to Kimambu: "Sir, there is a document that needs you to deal with."
Kimambu's expression moved slightly, and then he said to Auglas.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Augustolas, I have something to do. Let me deal with it first."
"Um."
Augustus didn't say much.
Immediately, Kimanbu and the subordinate walked out into the distance.
Augustolas looked at Kimambu's back with a hint of doubt, and then he glanced sideways at a blond beauty next to him.
The blonde beauty understood and left.
In the distance, Kimanbu looked at his subordinates in front of him and asked, "What's going on?"
The subordinates in front of me were excitedly reporting to Jiman.
"Lord Kimambu, I just got the news that someone has taken the mission we posted in the Ring City."
Kimanbu frowned and then said: "How is it possible? Who will take over our mission?"
Under normal circumstances, no one would take the task listed by the federation, not to mention that this task is very dangerous.
"Sir, does this mean that the search and rescue can continue?"
