Crossing to the Future, it's Not Easy to Be a Man Chapter 1234

Chapter 1234 Base Satellite Feiyu

“Maybe Lingtian had already finished cleaning up the sc.r.a.ps of their mechas.” Major General Di expressed his opinion after seeing the logisticians of Lingtian dragging every salvageable Twilight mecha back to their starship systematically.

“That's true. No wonder they asked us to wait for a long time. If the battle ended quickly, they would have the time to clean up the battlefield.” Major General Xu agreed.

The three of them didn't dare to look down on the Lingtian Independent Army anymore. Maybe the military sent them over not because they wanted to give them an easy way to gain merits, but because they trusted them. The military was confident in Lingtian's abilities to escort the transport fleet safely to their destination.

Even after finishing off the final mecha operator from Twilight, Ling Lan still didn't meet up with the transport fleet. Yang Mingzhi and the escort team were in charge of cleaning up the battlefield so she didn't have to do it. Thus, when the transport fleet arrived, Ling Lan was already moving to her next destination with Base Nebula.

This time, the destination was Base Satellite Feiyu, the frontline logistics headquarters of the Federation.

The transport fleet had a smooth journey after pa.s.sing through the Qingri wormhole.

Satellite Feiyu was a man-made satellite. It was as big as the moon. The Federation created this satellite to guard against Twilight.

Unlike the rare moving bases, Satellite Feiyu wasn't able to move freely like Base Nebula. Its movements were restricted. It could only spin around a certain path.

It didn't have strong defensive or offensive capabilities but as a frontline base, this much was enough.

Ling Lan didn't choose to enter the base. She stopped a few thousand kilometers away. She asked Little Four to hide Base Nebula from anyone's sight. As long as Base Nebula didn't move or produce any heat, no one would be able to find them.

Yang Mingzhi followed the transport fleet into Base Feiyu after receiving Ling Lan's order.

From the moment Ling Lan moved Base Nebula out of the Nebula boundary, Yang Mingzhi and Liu Furong never contacted her. They only communicated with her when she contacted them.

Ling Lan did this because she didn't want them to be implicated by her decision. Ever since she received the order from the military headquarters, a sense of crisis lingered in her heart. It was still there, even now.

After reaching a certain stage in physical skills, the human body would naturally be able to detect danger. This was the reason why Ling Xiao prepared his legacy before he left for his mission that year. This time, Ling Lan was prepared to face the worst case scenario.

After Qi Yaoyang received the news that the Lingtian Independent Army had escorted the transport fleet safely to Base Feiyu, he heaved a sigh of relief. He trusted Ling Lan but as a father, he was worried about his son.

When his staff officer told him that an imperial mecha team had ambushed the transport fleet, Qi Yaoyang's heart pounded furiously in fear. He knew that the transport fleet was fine now so he didn't jump out of his chair. An imperial mecha team wasn't a threat to official divisions but it could easily annihilate a newly formed independent army as well as a weak transport fleet.

“Are you saying that the Lingtian Independent Army only suffered a few casualties after destroying an imperial mecha team?” Qi Yaoyang was flabbergasted. If his mecha clan met such an imperial mecha team, it would still suffer heavy losses before defeating them.

Base Nebula was hidden from public sight so the condition of the two heavily injured mecha operators were not released. Hence, Qi Yaoyang only knew about the injured people resting on the three Destruction Devils. He wondered if Lingtian concealed the poor details of their fight because they wanted to gain more merits.

However, he knew that it was impossible. Other armies might need military exploits but the Lingtian Independent Army didn't.

“Let's go to Base Feiyu.” Qi Yaoyang believed in Ling Lan but he still wanted to make sure that Lingtian was safe.

The moment Qi Yaoyang reached Base Feiyu, he went directly to find the Lingtian Independent Army. He saw the brigade leaders waiting at the entrance of their starships.

They saluted when they saw Qi Yaoyang.

Qi Yaoyang glanced at the energetic little brat who was smiling stupidly. He said, “Let's go to your control room. Tell me about what happened in the Qingri wormhole.”

Yang Mingzhi and Liu Furong exchanged glances with each other and smiled at each other knowingly. They led Qi Yaoyang to the control room. When they entered the control room, they saw a beautiful lieutenant colonel talking to the mainframe of the ship in a gentle tone.

The lieutenant colonel heard the commotion, she turned around. Her eyes lit up when she saw Qi Yaoyang. “General.” She stood up and saluted.

“Luo Chao, long time no see. Look at how much you've grown.” Qi Yaoyang's expression softened when he saw Luo Chao. After the twins from the Luo family followed Ling Lan, his relationship with the Luo family had gotten better. Every holiday, the children from the Luo family and the Han family would come and visit him. Qi Yaoyang had a strong impression of the twins. After all, it was hard to see such identical twins with different gender.

“Come, come. Have a seat.” Qi Yaoyang asked everyone to sit down.

Yang Mingzhi and Liu Furong weren't in the same caliber as Qi Yaoyang but the difference between them wasn't huge. Thus, they didn't appear fl.u.s.tered and found a seat casually. On the other hand, the younger soldiers were nervous when they saw the undefeatable G.o.d of war, Qi Yaoyang, in person. Fortunately, the vicious training from Ling Lan allowed them to regain their composure quickly.

“Where is your commander?” Qi Yaoyang asked in surprise when he didn't see Ling Lan.

“Our commander tasked us to lead ten mecha brigades to escort the transport fleet,” Yang Mingzhi replied calmly, “The commander is protecting us secretly.”

Yang Mingzhi knew that they couldn't hide the truth from experienced soldiers like Qi Yaoyang. Thus, he told him the truth. He knew that Qi Yaoyang was on their side since he was Qi Long's father. Hence, he would definitely do them no harm.
