Face Slapping the General

Chapter 18: New beginning

Wu Qiao and Acquash are getting closer and closer. He told Akash that he wanted to get more of the "truth" hidden by the empire from the other party.

Finally one day, Wu Qiao said to Akash: "I want to leave the imperial army now."

"I have to confirm," Akash said, "you are not kidding."

"of course not."

"I really want to congratulate you, Wu Qiao, it's not for you." Akash said cheerfully, "We should toast to this!"

"I am indeed relieved."

"However, there is one more question." Akash's words changed. "You said, you want to do something meaningful to help the innocent people of the Empire. Do you think about what you want to do?"

"This..." Wu Qiao made a very mechanical voice.

"You said, if you come to the wings of the dragon and defeat the decayed empire, is it a meaningful thing?"

"No, I didn't want to join you." Wu Qiao's tone was firm.

"...Wu Qiao," Akash sighed, "you still don't understand the empire."

"What do you mean?"

"Wu Qiao, are we friends?"

"of course."

"So, can I discuss this with you as a friend, not as a member of Xianglong's Wings?"

"That's the best." Wu Qiao replied.

"What will happen to you when you leave? Have you thought about it?"

"What will happen?"

Akash’s voice was cold: "As a deserter, you will never see the light, you can only hide for life, and live in chaos every day—is this what you want? If you don’t protect yourself, you will even Caught back and put to death. Oh, yes, and your family will also be affected by it."

"The wings of the dragon... won't it protect me?"

"Does it have any responsibility to you?" Akash asked rhetorically.

"..."

"But if you become a part of it, of course the situation is different."

"..."

"Wu Qiao, I have no intention of forcing you to do anything. I just analyze the situation for you. As I said before, my organization respects personal choice."

"But you caused civilian casualties..."

"No, they are all dead and guilty!" Akash said, "We kill politicians, soldiers, police, and abuse reporters, bankers, judges, lawyers... Don't get us wrong, these are all for jihad. ."

"..." Wu Qiao clenched his fists, his nails pierced into the skin and pained. But he knew that at this time, he could not express anger.

Wu Qiao just said: "Let me think about it...Leaving the imperial army and joining the Wings of the Dragon, to me, are completely inconsistent or even different."

"Why don't you think of it like this, you are using us. Haven't you always been very confident? When you lead the troops independently, you can order them. You can't form a fleet by yourself."

"I...I still think about it."

"Okay, we give you time to think."

A few days later, Wu Qiao said that he was afraid of leaving the imperial army. He didn't think so much before, but now he felt that he really needed an organization to protect him.

"I...may I go over and take a look? See if it's what you said...then I will decide whether to join."

"Of course." Acquash said.

"I also hope... in the future you can reduce the target of your attack."

"I can refer you to someone who has the right to speak."

In the end, the two decided to act during the time when Wuqiao applied to go out on the weekend.

They will try their best to leave Wu Qiao behind, that is to say, pretending that Wu Qiao was forcibly taken away.

Students can apply to go out every weekend, but general instructors will only approve one-third of the applications. Wu Qiao's situation is different. He has been living in the hospital and conducting various training under the guise of the hospital. Therefore, Wu Qiao needs the dual approval of the hospital and the instructor to go out.

Early in the morning of the operation, Wu Qiao went to the Military Academy to take some photos.

He likes to take pictures, and he especially likes to leave photos that feel majestic.

His computer desktop is himself. In the picture, he is on the top of a high mountain, posing his usual style, full of vigor and vigor.

Wu Qiao likes to put the photos in the web log, and look through it from time to time, recalling the ups and downs of each experience.

He just didn't release it this time, and didn't save it in the computer, but left it to Tan Yan for safekeeping.

After that, Wu Qiao went to apply for going out, and naturally he was quickly approved.

He walked into the downtown area of ​​Capital Star, waiting for the appointment time.

There were shouts from the surrounding vendors, but Wu Qiao felt a little dizzy to suffocate.

Time finally reached ten o'clock.

Accompanied by a scream, Wu Qiao saw a black levitating car rushing towards him, and deafening music came from the car, drowning all the screams and calls for help.

Then the car door opened, and a man in a hat rushed down. Wu Qiao immediately backed up, but it was too late. The other party grabbed his wrist, and then the other hand caught Wu Qiao’s neck, and when he couldn’t stand a violent cough, he was beaten by him. Dump into the car!

"..."

The car drove away quickly and left.

"How is it?" Akash said with a smile in the car, "all came according to your wishes."

"...Aquash." Wu Qiao asked, "How did you cross the imperial border?"

"You believe me, as long as you master the skills, it's not difficult at all. The Border Fleet is not as omnipotent as you think."

"..."

"Wu Qiao, my friend, you are finally here." Acquash sighed, "The spaceship is actually very close to this. We will definitely have time. We won't be overtaken by the imperial police."

"..."

"However, I also ask you to blindfold."

"…it is good."

Wu Qiao knew that Xianglong Wings had many bases, and the addresses were constantly changing, each of which was a secret.

Wu Qiao didn't know how long he stayed on the spacecraft.

When the blindfold was taken off, he felt a strong discomfort, the light was very dazzling, and the Buddha would burn his pupils.

He discovered that at this moment he was on a planet he had never seen before. The land was a large area of ​​gray, and many volcanoes stood majestically as far as he could see. It seems that the gray land was left over after the volcanoes erupted all the year round. Down product. It seems... is a planet where no one lives...

Wu Qiao raised his eyes and could see the sun, so he speculated that he is now in the asteroid belt of the solar system.

"Are you okay?" Akash asked.

"...Not very comfortable." Wu Qiao replied.

This kind of sailing is always uncomfortable, and his eyes are always covered.

A middle-aged man greeted him.

"Wu Qiao," Akash introduced, "This is Jose, my boss, the leader of this base. I told him you are excellent, and he personally came to pick you up."

"…Thank you."

Acquas continued: "José came here from a neutral country."

"Neutral country?" Wu Qiao was puzzled. Neutral countries have never participated in politics. Why does he hate empire so much?

"Do you know the government-in-exile of a neutral country?"

"of course."

Calling it a "government in exile" actually happened hundreds of years ago. The people who lived in neutral countries before were not the current group of people. A thousand years ago, due to severe natural disasters, all members of the royal family moved. After the natural disasters ended, because the residual toxic substances in the air would greatly shorten the life span of people, those members did not immediately. Return to the devastated place, but temporarily stay in the empire. Ten years later, a group of interstellar pirates who were chased out of nowhere landed on the land of a neutral country in despair, and chose to thrive there regardless of the harsh environment. Later, as the number of people increased, they also established a new government, which has developed better and better over the past few hundred years. However, a few decades ago, the descendants of those royal family members suddenly claimed sovereignty over neutral countries, and did not recognize that they were legal governments who established power in neutral countries after they left.

Akwas smiled strangely: "José's parents were both soldiers from a neutral country and died in the battle between the neutral country and the government in exile."

"what."

"José had always wondered why such a large neutral country could not handle a small so-called "government in exile."

"..."

"Until he finally figured out that it was the empire behind it! The empire supports the government in exile! Only because the imperial concubine has a little blood in the exiled royal family! The empire is neither willing to go too deep nor withdraw, and support the government in exile from time to time. Or sell them the obsolete weapons, causing the dispute to remain unresolved!"

"..." In fact, in this matter, Wu Qiao also felt that the choice of the imperial emperor was related to selfishness.

"Don't mention this." Jose smiled. "Everyone was very happy. What do you want to do with this."

"Sorry," Akash said, "I hate when it comes to empire."

"This is a good thing." Jose comforted Akwas, then turned to Wu Qiao and said, "You haven't decided to join yet, have you?"

"Actually," Wu Qiao hesitated, "I suddenly realized that since I have come here, I must join."

Wu Qiao knew that if he really wanted to go back, he could only lie down and go back.

Jose laughed loudly over there: "If there is nothing, you can just look at it and make a decision."

Wu Qiao was arranged in the same room as Akwas.

Walking all the way from the spaceship to the camp, Wu Qiao felt secretly shocked, because the richness of Xianglong's wings far exceeded his imagination.

Where did so much money come from?

Suddenly, Wu Qiao felt that it might be more useful to figure out where their money came from, rather than getting regular information about base locations and planned activities. Because even if the base is bombed and activities are blocked, there is no way to shake the foundation of this organization, but once the empire starts economically and cuts off their capital chain, they will definitely weaken rapidly.

But... it's too difficult to figure out this, I can only rely on a bug.

Before Wu Qiao left the empire, the military department gave him the latest bug. The bug does not see any abnormality from the outside. It is just a pair of ordinary glasses, but it uses the most advanced technology. It can emit a wave that cannot be detected by the naked eye or detection equipment, and collects the reflection from the glass or other objects. Send it directly back to the Imperial Army, and the Imperial Army can derive the conversation content of the people in the room based on the slight vibrations emitted by the glass or other objects. Its advantage is that the bug does not need to be placed very close to the speaker, or even in the room, and its shell is hard, it is difficult to find the mystery without melting, and the internal device has a lower melting point. Usually it turns into a puddle of molten iron before the outer casing of the glasses is melted.

Wu Qiao used a needle to switch on the bug, put on his glasses, and planned to go out to try his luck to see if he could "hear" something outside of Jose's office.

He just arrived here, he didn't know much, and he was allowed to watch it casually, and he wouldn't be suspected of walking around. When he waited a few days... it would seem very strange to be sneaky.

But no... the people at the base were very curious about him, and several people came up to talk to him just after they left.

"Yo~! I heard that you are the number one in the entrance examination for the military training course?"

"…Ok."

"It seems that Tan Yan likes you very much."

"…I do not know."

"I also heard that the one on TV is not really talking about it."

"Yeah." The other party pointed to the counterfeit general, and he gestured a lot in each speech.

"It seems that Tan Yan is really handsome?"

"..." Tan Yan is indeed very beautiful. Wu Qiao has never seen a better-looking person in his life, but it is definitely not a good thing for the people of Xianglong Wings to recognize the general of the empire based on this.

It's better to interfere...

Aesthetics is a very personal thing...

After making up his mind, Wu Qiao replied: "I think he is quite ugly."

Over there, Tan Yan, who was paying close attention to Wu Qiao undercover for the first day, became suspicious of his face for the first time after "hearing" these words.
