Chapter 70: Dreves' Sincerity
From the end of the war, when he sailed with the fleet to the southeast base, Drevis kept himself locked in the captain's room, unconcerned about his work, and no one knew what he was doing.
"Knock knock."
There was a low knock on the door, Drevis took a deep puff of the cigar in his hand, crushed the cigarette butt in the ashtray, and roared out the door: "I didn't say it, no one is allowed to disturb me!" ”
The knock on the door abruptly stopped, and Drevis shook his head, took another cigar from the cigarette case on the table, and put it to his mouth.
The door of the room was gently pushed open, and a beam of light shot out of the dark room, and the dazzling light made Drevis can't help but close his eyes, and shouted angrily: "No matter who you are, get out of here immediately!" ”
"Why, are you hiding in the dark?"
A soft, grief-filled voice rang out, and Drevis was shaken, his anger vanished, and the cigar he hadn't had time to light was thrown onto the table at will. With his hands on his head, Drevis whispered, "I'm thinking about things, and the darkness can make me mentally focused." ”
"What's the problem that makes you don't even want to see me?"
Someone closes the door and turns on the lights in the room. She stared at the decadent man in front of her, and tears couldn't stop flowing.
"Look at you, what has become of you now!"
The woman pressed quickly on the wrist-shaped light brain, and soon two stereoscopic images appeared in front of Dreves.
The man on the left is handsome and dashing, neatly dressed in a military uniform, with a confident face and star-like eyes staring into the distance. The man on the right, with a jagged beard on his chin, unkempt hair, godless eyes, and sleek-yellow skin. The military uniform on his body was crumpled and not even buttoned.
"Look at yourself! Is there still a little bit of Federalism now? ”
The woman grabbed him by the shoulders and shook him vigorously. Perhaps too excited, or choking on the smoke that filled the room, she began to cough violently.
Drevis panicked a little and jumped to the door with a lunge to turn on the exhaust fan.
The thick green smoke in the room was quickly inhaled, and the fresh air poured in, and for only a few seconds, there was no trace of smoke in the room.
"Wife, I'm sorry...... Federation...... Hehe, the Federation is no longer the Federation it used to be. ”
Drevis took off his military uniform and tossed it aside, not looking at the glittering star on his shoulder. He pulled the woman into his arms, hugged her, and muttered, "I've been thinking, what am I going to do if I leave the Federation?" ”
The woman stroked his cheek: "Didn't your childhood friend serve as a high-ranking official in Gato, Poland?" Why not go to him? ”
"That's why I'm worried, I don't want to tell you, I'm afraid you'll worry." Drevis sighed deeply, shook his head, and said, "Marshal Werner is not an ordinary person, he discovered my contact with Gato in Poland very early, so he transferred me to the southeast base. There's no way I'm going to get over Gato, Poland......"
"That'...... Do we have no other way? Seeing that Drevis was silent for a while, the woman's heart gradually sank, and she suddenly smiled: "No matter what happens, I will always be by your side." Don't leave, don't give up, live together, die together......"
Drevis was shocked and hugged the woman tightly in his arms.
At this moment, he seemed to have made up his mind.
……
"Boss, when will Syrumis be fixed!"
In the mecha cabin of the flagship of the 21st Fleet, Yun Yi was inspecting his own [Yi Xun], and when he heard a coquettish voice in his ears from time to time, Yun Yi couldn't help but shake his head, jumped down from the mecha, clapped his hands, looked at Syrumis and said, "I said, can you change the name of your mecha?" It's easy to get confused. ”
Silopher pouted, looked at him dissatisfied, then snorted, tilted her head with her back to him and said: "Silopher is Hilopher of Hilopher, not Silopher of Yunyi, and Yunyi has no right to change the name of Hilopher." ”
Yun Yi patted his head: "Okay, okay, you can call it whatever you want." Your mech is badly damaged, and I estimate it will take more than a month to repair it. ”
"Really?" Syrumis immediately smiled, and looked at Yunyi with big sparkling eyes: "You can't deceive Hilofice." ”
"Don't worry, no matter how much I lie, I can't lie to you, not to mention that I haven't deceived anyone yet." Yun Yi smiled, thinking about it carefully, it seems that he really didn't deceive anyone.
"Boss, you're such a nice guy."
Without saying a word, Hiluffis handed over a good guy card. Looking at this child-like deputy god general, Yun Yi couldn't help but shake his head, and was about to go to the mecha simulator with her to learn and hone his mecha martial arts skills, but the communicator rang.
Glancing at the name on it, Yun Yi's face did not change in the slightest: "I'm going to a meeting, you can find a place to play." As soon as he took two steps, Yun Yi turned his head again and said, "Remember, don't bully those mecha warriors!" ”
Hiluffis pouted, grimaced at him, and hopped out. Looking at her back, Yun Yi smiled wryly and strode towards the room.
Closing the door, Yun Yi immediately turned on the communicator, and Liang Zecheng's avatar soon appeared in front of him.
"Old Liang, what happened, why are you in such a hurry?"
The excitement and excitement on Liang Lao's face could not be suppressed: "Yun Yi, agreed, he agreed!" ”
"What agreed, who?" Yun Yi didn't understand it for a while, and looked at the excited Liang Lao confused.
"Dreves! He agreed to join us. But there is one condition......"
"Drevis agreed?" Although Yun Yi had already expected that he would agree, he couldn't stop being excited when he heard the news, and he didn't even know what Liang Lao was saying later, and shouted excitedly: "Drevis agreed!" In this way, our combat effectiveness can almost double, and there are no more Federation troops on this side of the southeast, so it can be said that it is completely our own territory! ”
Liang Lao wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Yunyi, Drevis is still conditional......"
"It doesn't matter, I'll promise him anything...... Uh, what conditions does he have? ”
Looking at the excited Yun Yi, Liang Lao couldn't help but shake his head, it seems that this guy is really not a political material.
"Drevis asks to be naturalized in Chu Tang, only to accept orders from you or the two commanders Lin and Yang, and if necessary, to protect him and his family as they go to Chu Tang. In addition, he demanded funds of ten million imperial gold dollars. However, this money was not for himself, but he wanted to use it to appease his subordinates and buy the high-ranking officials of the Eleventh and Sixteenth Fleets. ”
"It seems that this guy Drevis looks down on our Restoration Army." Yun Yi groaned slightly and said, "How much money does the Fuguo Military Government have now?" ”
"Although there is no war expenditure during this time, a lot of money has been spent on things such as bribing planetary government officials and expanding our influence. Moreover, due to the lack of raw materials, the factories cannot operate normally, and the tax revenue is less than one-tenth of what it was at the time of the victory. In addition, most of the businesses that used to belong to the rebels have been relocated and moved to Berwick, so there is not much income during this time......"
Yun Yi interrupted him: "You just need to tell me how much is left now." ”
Liang Lao hesitated for a moment, and said honestly: "There are more than 78 million left, of which 75 million is the ...... of this month's government activities."
Yun Yi frowned slightly, he didn't expect that the Restoration Army was now so poor that it could almost be said to be about to go out of business. It seems that we need to ask for support from the blue sky. Thinking of this, he waved his hand: "Allocate 20 million to Drevis and tell him to work hard, and I can agree to him on the conditions he proposes." As long as he can make outstanding contributions, there will be a place for him in Chu Tang's army! ”
Chu Tang's nationality and the protection provided to Drevis can be easily done by Yun Yi, who only needs to send a message to his brother-in-law Bleteag. But it was almost impossible to get a high-ranking federal official like Drevis to join Chu Tang's military system. The officer system of Chu and Tang is extremely strict, even if it is Yun Yi, he can only earn the title of military adviser, let alone Drevis.
This guy is completely unscrupulous, but Yun Yi has also figured it out, now is the time to need Drevis to help, so he might as well give him more sweetness. After the destruction of Iseras and the rebuilding of the Zhao and Song empires, it would be decades later, and who knows what the situation will be at that time.
Yun Yi here has already made up his mind, but Liang Lao is a little embarrassed over there: "Yun Yi, this money is all government activity funds, if it is not enough, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be other changes on the planets that have secretly taken refuge in us." ”
"Elder Liang, just do as I say." Yun Yi smiled slightly: "Don't forget, there are many companies under my hands." ”
Liang Lao glanced at him with admiration, those companies were all worked hard by Yunyi, and he was willing to take them out to the Restoration Army, which was enough to make Liang Lao admire from the bottom of his heart.
"I understand, Yunyi, no matter what you do in the future, my old man will support you wholeheartedly. In my opinion, it's better to ......"
Liang Lao hesitated for a moment before he whispered, "Why don't you marry Her Royal Highness the Princess?" ”
"What!"
Yun Yi's face changed, and he was stunned on the spot.
