Chapter 962 The Past (Part 2)
Queen Qi knew in her heart that the army of the Starry Empire would never be able to blackmail some property, territorial resources or the like this. It would be to completely erase the entire Bojiang clan from the Star Sea world. Therefore, she had no way out regardless of whether she fought or not.
Of course, there is not a hope for peace, but it comes at the expense of her own status, dignity, and even her life. Unless it is at the last moment, she does not want to be willing to come to her door to get a knife, even if her actions may bring more serious consequences.
"What is the current situation on the border? Have humans launched an attack?" she asked gritted her teeth.
Feng Jing replied: "Hou Yufeng has been calmed down during this period. It seems that he is planning to wait until His Majesty Yun Emperor's main force arrives before launching it. Of course, small-scale harassment still happens from time to time."
"Since the Starlight Empire has sent troops, it will take no more than a month to go from the imperial capital to the northwest border. It will probably take less than a month to attack the Mengluan Star Domain," said Empress Qi quietly.
"In other words, our Bojiang Empire has only lasted for two months, or about three months. From then on, there will be no Bojiang tribe in the starry sea."
In the empty hall, dozens of important officials almost all looked blue, and some of them were weak-willed, and their bodies couldn't help but tremble slightly.
At this time, even the most arrogant elders had to admit that the Bojiang Empire was in trouble this time.
Queen Qi's eyes flew over the faces of the courtiers one by one. Although she felt secretly contempt in her heart, she resisted it and did not attack. She just continued to ask: "How much military force can we mobilize now?"
Feng Jing hesitated for a moment and said, "After the last war, the Empire has stepped up its recruitment and tried its best to expand its military strength. So far, there have been more than 600 supernatural legions, and there are also 14 million fleets, interstellar fortresses of various specifications, and several war fortresses. This... is the entire family of the Emperor's Court now."
"It seems like a lot, so I should spend some time with them." She said to herself.
"There are many big families in the imperial capital, each of which has a lot of force. If they can contribute all of these forces, then our military strength can be doubled. As long as the command is properly, we can fight the Star Light Empire."
"As long as you are lucky enough, it is not impossible for them to suffer some losses. At that time, we will ask for negotiations, which is feasible."
Under the imperial throne, an old man with gray hair and a haggard face whispered:
"Your Majesty's idea is correct, but the Starlight Empire has the Death Starship. I heard that the asteroid obtained from the Borostaus has also been put into use, so we..."
Yes, at first glance, the Bojiang Empire's military power is indeed strong, but it is just conventional forces. Once you encounter a strategic weapon like the Dead Starship, you will only be slaughtered. Unless the Bojiang tribe can also have strategic weapons of the same level, it can form a new strategic balance of power.
Queen Qi looked slightly angry and said patiently:
"So, can we get two such powerful tools, such as buying a few senior generals, no matter how much it costs, let them turn against each other and take the Death Starship to us."
The old man glanced at the queen with the idiot's eyes and said helplessly:
"Your Majesty, we have very little power in the human world. If we want to penetrate into the Death Starship, it is simply an impossible task. Besides, the Starlight Empire must have been extremely controlled by such important strategic weapons. All the senior commanders must be the ones who are most loyal to Emperor Yun, and it is not so easy to buy them."
Queen Qi's face turned red, and she couldn't help but feel a little angry and scolded:
"Then you have to find a way to do it. Our clan is in danger, and the inheritance of civilization will be destroyed by the barbaric human hands, but you will only complain in front of me. It's really outrageous."
She stared at the ministers below and said coldly:
"I am now ordering that all the heads of the imperial capital must hand over all the high-level psychics and private fleets in the clan for free, and be uniformly dispatched and commanded by the Imperial Court Deputy Corps to fight the invading human legion. No matter how much the price it costs, they cannot allow those savage and rude guys to break into the sacred and inviolable territory of our clan."
“…”
After the court meeting, the lost ministers left the palace gate and were speechless to each other. Finally, the old man in the Chinese uniform invited several familiar colleagues into his spaceship, and then said to them in an inaudible voice:
"Last time, I've seen the former Queen."
The elders couldn't help but look excited and asked one after another: "Dear Elder Koumron, what do the former queen say?"
Elder Koumron said: "She is also very disappointed with her daughter, so she has already acquiesced to our plan. If we can successfully launch it, she will stand up and support us at a critical moment."
"However, this Queen Qi has some foundation, and there are still many people in the court who support her. If she takes action rashly, she will not be sure of success. Instead, she will deal with us." An elder said with concern.
In any case, Empress Qi legally inherited the throne and has never made any major mistakes since taking office, so it is probably much more difficult to get her to step down than imagined.
Kumron smiled and said, "Don't worry about this. I have my own way. I will choose a time in the past two days and go to visit His Majesty quietly. After obtaining her consent, I will go to the Starlight Empire to see the Cloud Emperor and explore the other party's bottom line. In any case, the survival of our clan is the first priority."
...
On the sea of Duyunxing, the blue sun had already emerged, and the dark night sky slowly turned into ink blue, and then light blue... The three bright satellites gradually dimmed and their figures became blurred.
At the port, a large group of crew members rushed onto their respective ships like a tide, then started anchoring, sailing, and looking for opportunities and wealth in the vast sea.
"Brother Hao, didn't you only participate on weekends before? Why did you come here today?" Captain Flud asked with a bottle of wine.
"I... just came to see it." He hesitated.
"Aren't you... dead? Why are you still going out to sea to catch fish? Didn't the Yun family kill you?"
Captain Drunkard looked at him blankly, then looked at himself, and said inexplicably: "What are you talking about? I go out to sea every day, Yun family, what is Yun family..."
...
The golden "dream rose" lightly crossed the night sky and landed slowly in front of him.
The cabin door slid open silently, and the woman in red, who was like a flame, appeared, looked at him with a big, captivating eyes, and greeted with a smile:
"Dear, you have been hiding where you have been these days. People are still waiting for you to propose. Could it be that they have found another good friend and forgot my sister."
"Xiao Muhan..." He became more and more confused. Isn't the other party his imperial concubine? Why... where is he?
"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Seeing that he didn't say anything, Xiao Muhan walked over and hugged him, and gently stroked his face with his jade hands.
He was about to hug her, but the woman in front of him suddenly changed into a charming woman in white with a teasing eyes. He proudly pinched his shoulder and said, "Little guy, I finally caught you. Go and have fun with my sister."
"Lan Shixia..." He was suddenly shocked and reached out and was about to draw the sword, but found that his hands could not move, but the other party's plump body slowly pressed down.
...
"You bad guy, you ran to the beach to pick up shells again." In the basement, a slightly complaining gentle voice came from behind, jumping up in shock, who was busy dealing with the "stolen goods".
Looking back, the familiar face that had been missing for a long time came into view, and the eyes of looking at him were filled with a strong sense of pampering and lovingness.
"Mom, I..." He said embarrassedly.
"I was so bored at home, so I just went out for a walk. My younger brother and sister went together."
A low and thick voice rang out: "Although the beach is fun, occasionally there will be many deadly creatures rushing to the beach with the tide. Maybe something will happen. I will not be able to do this again next time."
"Yes, I will never dare again." He answered honestly.
Dad has always had a high prestige in his heart, so he dare not make any mistakes.
Yun Yuxi smiled and patted his son's head, saying, "Since you like beautiful shells so much, next time you go to sea, dad will bring you some back, there are better ones in the sea."
"Ah, you are going to sea again..." He said in a disappointment.
"Yes." Yun Yuxi said.
"Your mother's genes are a little unstable again, and there are not many medicines stored at home, so my father went to the Ability Association this time to take on an important task. As long as he finishes this order, he will have money to solve your mother's condition."
"You can go to Xiying and their house these days. I have greeted your uncle and aunt."
There seemed to be a flash of lightning in his mind, causing his brain, which had been confused, to suddenly wake up.
He suddenly realized that this was the day before his parents had an accident when he was twelve years old. Since then, he has never heard of them again.
"No, you...you can't go." He shouted with all his strength, while holding his mother's clothes tightly with both hands.
The couple was surprised by their son's unusual and fierce reaction. Yun Yuxi said gently: "Don't worry, son, dad won't have any trouble. He will come back in three days at most. After his mother's illness is cured, we will go out to play."
"No, you can't go, you must not... like this..." He grabbed his parents' hands like crazy, trying to persuade them to change their minds.
However, the development of things was not changed by his will. The tragedy of that year reappeared in front of him, but he could only watch and could not interfere at all.
The figures of parents gradually faded away. He kept chasing behind him, but still failed to let them turn back...
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you..."
A slightly panic-like call made him wake up.
It turned out that it was just a dream.
Yun Yingxue's beautiful face slowly became clear in front of her eyes, with strong concern in her beautiful eyes.
