Chapter 754, before returning
"It's really like a dream..."
"Is it a sweet dream?" Gu Hang asked with a smile.
Ye Lixia's performance was a little hesitant. She hesitated for a while, then sighed leisurely and said: "I can't say... For many people, they can't become a high lord, but being able to become a high lord's wife is also a big deal. It's a very good thing, not to mention that the ultimate goal of some canaries' lives is like this..."
"But you are not a canary, you are an eagle." Gu Hang said seriously.
Ye Lixia laughed, patted Gu Hang, and said: "What about the eagle? I once had great ambitions, thinking that I could reach the highest position by myself, but I didn't expect that in the end I would still have to There is someone to rely on..."
Gu Hang hugged Ye Lixia.
Yelicia struggled a little, and Gu Hang let go slightly. She just adjusted a little to a more comfortable position, and continued to lie half in Gu Hang's arms: "But there is nothing to say. The so-called highest I have ever thought about At the same time, it is nothing more than being able to reach the level of Vice Admiral of the Imperial Navy, which is already tied. The highest level of our Fofana family. My grandfather, and even the ancestors who created the Fofana navy family earlier, have no one who has exceeded this rank in the Pegasus star region and the Dragon Eagle star field where we are located. , being a naval admiral has come to an end, and in the end there will only be a lieutenant general.”
"Even the most arrogant delusions when I was young and frivolous could not achieve what I have today."
"Admiral, Lady High Lord... Oh my god, I have never even imagined this in my life."
"But the more times like this come, the more fear I get."
At this time, Gu Hang comforted him: "There is nothing to be afraid of. Everything you have now is due to your own efforts. You have always been the supreme commander of the alliance navy. On the way to the alliance's growth, you have made countless mistakes, big and small." You are indispensable for every battle. I need you, and the alliance also needs you. You will be one of the most important roles in the alliance. This is not a guarantee I give you, but what you deserve with your wisdom and courage. Power.”
"Yes, I am very proud that I can do all this. But the more proud I am, the more scared I am. All this happened so fast, how can I keep it all? Whenever I think about it, I feel like walking on thin ice." Ye Lixia's The words were quite sad.
She paused and continued: "I rarely thought like this before. After Xiaojing was born, my thoughts became more and more different. Maybe this is the change after becoming a mother? I am more worried about the future than before. , I want to leave a better environment for Xiao Jing..."
"It's just like doing it in the past. Every time we take the alliance to a new place, we are building a better world."
"You know I don't just mean that, he will inherit from us in the future..."
"No." Gu Hang interrupted his wife and said, "He will inherit nothing from us."
Yelicia suddenly turned her head and stared at Gu Hang in surprise.
Gu Hang's attitude was calm.
After looking at each other for a moment, and watching Ye Lixia's expression gradually change into that of a mother animal protecting her cubs, Gu Hang finally sighed slightly and said: "We will have a long life, and you will be more than sixty years old." I gave birth to Xiao Jing at the age of 5, but I can ensure that you will live to be over 560 years old. When you are old enough to need a successor, Xiao Jing is already over 500 years old. What do you expect him to take over at that time? At the end of life.”
Yelicia opened her mouth slightly, but didn't know what to say.
It's not like she hasn't thought about these things. But she didn't realize how long her life would be. After all, in her previous life, there were not a few seniors in the family or dignitaries in the Star Territory who had the right and status to undergo life-extending surgery. However, once or twice, it would be the end. After all, life-extending surgery is expensive, and the more you go to the end, the more expensive it becomes. Only some of the most powerful people have the greatest wealth, and more importantly, the power to perform their fourth or fifth life-extending surgery.
Her thoughts did not change for a while, but now after Gu Hang reminded her, she was shocked to realize that from the perspective of the top dignitaries in the human empire, there was a sixty-year age difference between her and his son. A lot, but they are actually the same generation.
In fact, these words were only about Ye Lixia and did not mention Gu Hang himself.
He is an immortal, which means that hundreds of years have no essential difference to him. By then, his son Gu Jing has become an old man, and his appearance will not even change from what it is now.
Heir?
No heir could outlive him.
And if Gu Hang had a personal accident midway and needed someone else to take over, the probability was very low. If with Gu Hang's current strength and condition, he will die, what kind of successor will be able to turn the tide and reverse the overall situation?
However, even so, Yelicia was still unwilling to give in.
"That's our son, our only son."
"So you have to believe in him." Gu Hang said, "You have to fully trust him. In the future, he will not be a waste who can only rely on his father's protection. In this turbulent era, the stage has been set for him. He has a lot of potential. With a high starting point, he will have the best education, and he will start from Growing up in the political center of the alliance, he can always be exposed to the thoughts of the supreme ruler of the alliance, that is, his parents. When he grows up, he can go where he wants according to his abilities and interests. Where he can shine ”
"No one can be greedy for his achievements, or in other words, as long as he gets out of trouble, he will be the most outstanding hero. Unlike normal parents, we can really watch how he finishes his life. ”
"At this level, what's not possible?"
Yelicia: "But... what if we really have an accident? What if you are held back for a moment, just like in the Battle of Alamita, and you are trapped in a cruel confrontation in the subspace? What should we do if the situation is more critical and lasts longer? No matter what, we need someone who can be trusted to take the lead at this time. Who can be more important than our son? To take on this role?”
"This does not conflict with what I said." Gu Hang said patiently, "It is precisely because he has to bear these responsibilities that he needs more training. But on the other hand, this is not a benefit, but a true Real responsibility, kinship and bloodline are meaningless. After all, no matter what the final situation becomes, as long as I come back successfully in the end, I can Everything is back on track; and if I can't come back, then everything will be meaningless. Therefore, the prerequisite for taking on an important role is to have enough ability to prevent the situation from getting too bad before I come back. It would be great to be able to take on a big responsibility, but if he is not qualified, he cannot force his way into power.”
Ye Lixia's eyes were already a little red. A strong female general like her was no different from ordinary mothers when it came to their first child: "I just want him to live a good life. He is so So cute, so smart..."
"He will live a good life, at least he will have a peaceful and prosperous life."
…………
Gu Hang's family, as well as many senior figures in the alliance who brought Holy Terra to him, naturally had to leave together.
In fact, everyone has their own work and tasks when they come to Holy Terra, and so far, on the whole, they have been completed relatively smoothly.
It goes without saying that Gu Hang’s own mission goes without saying.
Yelicia is actually very busy. Not only did she have to attend many formal occasions as Gu Hang's wife, but there were also many 'ladies' parties' where she also had to attend and socialize with the spouses of other high-ranking officials in the empire.
In addition to these, there are also some gatherings within the Imperial Navy system that she must also actively participate in.
Although, her status as an admiral was not a traditional one who rose up from the Imperial Navy system, but the last time Gu Hang came to Holy Terra, as one of the benefits gained by the alliance in the political transaction, it fell to him. On the head. However, this was within the Imperial Navy's system anyway, and as an admiral, no one could veto her decision.
At this time, she also had to shoulder the responsibility of the connection between the Alliance Navy and the Imperial Navy.
There are contradictions between the two sides.
The Alliance Navy is supposed to be connected to the command system of the Imperial Navy Central Headquarters. Financial allocations come from the Ministry of Military Affairs, go to the Navy Center, and then to the Alliance Navy; the actions of the Alliance Navy must also obey the command of the higher-level headquarters. If necessary, the higher-level headquarters can also send a commander to take over the Alliance Navy.
But these are theoretical claims.
Would the Alliance Navy accept it? Obviously it's impossible.
Would Naval Central Command accept that?
It really works.
Although, they are also very greedy. If they can gain control of the Alliance Navy, just like they control other imperial naval forces, it will be equivalent to gaining a powerful frontier fleet in vain, which is of great significance.
However, they themselves also understood that the Alliance Navy was not funded by the Imperial Navy.
Similar cases abound throughout the empire. Many fleets built by local governments are not willing to allow the central government of the empire to intervene. The lower the naval command's allocation ratio, the weaker its natural control.
The Alliance is not that easy to plunder. The leader of the Alliance, Gu Hang, is now the most popular political figure in Holy Terra; the entire Alliance Navy is built from the Alliance's own system, and there is no room for the Imperial Navy Command to intervene. , it’s useless to try to change.
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
However, even so, it does not prevent them from using these things to fight against the autumn wind.
The important thing is to mobilize the power of the alliance navy; the light thing is also to install officers and commanders.
Gu Hang gave clear instructions: Eat shit if you want!
If the Central Headquarters doesn't give you a dime, then don't even get a dime from the Alliance Navy.
The right to mobilize is not given at all, not even by the commander. On the other hand, some officer positions on the ship can be considered and discussed, but the quality of the personnel must be high.
This was to prostitute some talents from the Imperial Navy for free.
However, they need to maintain a certain proportion, go through an inspection period, and find opportunities for retraining at the Alliance's Zhongsi Academy.
Yelicia is responsible for all these communications with the Imperial Navy Central Committee.
She is really busy.
But fortunately, the final result is quite good.
The Supreme Commander of the Imperial Navy, Sean Edwards, personally had a meeting with Yelicia, and also roped in an envoy sent by Prime Minister Gallardo of the Ministry of Military Affairs to finalize many details together.
Many parties are quite satisfied. The Navy Center is not excessive. There is a thousand-person officer corps that will set off to the alliance to serve the alliance. The Alliance purchased some warships that were abolished by the Navy Center at a relatively high price. The Alliance Navy has established relatively smooth communication with the Navy Center. , established a 'joint command center' that was far larger than the actual form...
There are also generals from the Alliance Army who have negotiated similar cooperation with the Astra Militarum.
On the government side, some alliance government officials brought by Gu Hang were discussing with the Imperial Taxation Department many detailed implementation issues within the general framework of the "Alliance Plan".
Even among the Space Marines, the two Chapter Masters, Martins and Ewing, have their own work to do.
Martins wants to bring the glory of the Phoenix back to the Phoenix family and rebuild the glory of the Phoenix family.
The current Phoenix Chapter has a vague demeanor like the second in command of the Phoenix family. In addition to not having the Glory Queen-class battleship, in real comparison, the parent group that is now crippled is definitely not as strong as the Phoenix before it is rebuilt.
As the Chapter Leader, Ewing also had to represent the Blood Shark Chapter, which had just returned to the Empire's territory, to re-establish various connections with the Empire's officials.
He also has some other little ideas.
Although the cooperation between the Blood Sharks and the Alliance was quite pleasant during the last war, if they could have a better future, who wouldn't want it?
The strong comprehensive strength shown by the Blood Shark Chapter has also made many people look at them in a new light. There are indeed many forces who came to contact Ewing.
Gu Hang was laissez-faire about this.
Just talk.
After Ewing came into contact with a large number of politicians on Holy Terra, his mood changed from high to low.
They all say nice things, but in fact, very few offer conditions that can exceed those of the Alliance. The few conditions offered by the alliance are better, or even much better, than those of the alliance. In fact, they are just rhetoric and pure pie-in-the-sky, and their credibility is questionable.
Ewing is not a fool and can see it.
In the end, he realized it, calmed down, and followed Gu Hang faithfully back to Eastern Xinjiang.
Following the alliance, looking around, it is still the best choice.
