Chapter 1731 Who are you looking down upon?
When Jing Yuexin returned to the Link Nebula, a group of military leaders were having a fierce argument on the empire's central planet.
The core of the dispute is how to treat the digital phantom that has come back to rest.
After learning about this team's amazing achievements, there is no doubt that everyone in the military hopes to have these people fight with the army.
However, this is unrealistic, and everyone knows that this team's interest lies in fighting aliens.
Digital Phantom had fought against enemy armies before in the Alliance and the Federation, but that was now a thing of the past.
The military also tried to exert pressure, but the effect was not good. The government did not believe it and ended up facing a strong backlash.
This team has so many incredible and magical technologies, how can I put it? No one dares to think about it for the time being.
Yes, it is only temporary. Currently, the government and the military are discussing the feasibility of purchasing the technology.
It’s just that the other party’s offer was too high, and the empire was still facing a battle on two fronts, so it was too difficult to withdraw funds.
While raising funds, they are also waiting for the other party's technology to cool down - maybe it won't be so expensive by then.
Just like last time, didn’t the other party send an extra-large and stable space ring?
What everyone is arguing about now is whether or not to agree to the deal with Digital Phantom, which is to exchange battleships for intelligence.
Many people do not agree to the change because there has never been such expensive intelligence.
And if Digital Phantom gets four more division-level ships, the team will have seven Imperial-standard division-level ships.
Such combat power is enough to make any military district in a star field nervous.
Considering the superb tactical level demonstrated by Digital Phantom in Star Wars, it can easily wipe out the military forces of any star field.
Once this level of armed force appears, will the top leaders of the empire still be able to sleep well at night?
Of course, everyone is very sure that the Digital Phantom only wants to fight against alien races and is not interested in the rights of human society at all.
But... people change!
If we allow or even strongly support the rise of such an armed force, who can take responsibility if something goes wrong?
However, the military also urgently needs news about the alien race Ashura.
Opponents even believe that the intelligence may not be true, and that the claim that the digital phantom hit the entrance of the passage is questionable.
But this is just a very small sound. The damage on the four division-level ships cannot be faked.
The bigwigs who supported this decision pointed out, "Intelligence shows that they originally had at least eight alliance division-level ships."
"So far, seven ships have been severely damaged... Do they really have other intentions? Would they fight at such a high cost?"
If this team does not fight with alien races, it will have at least ten division-level ships, which is enough to cause a bloody storm in the empire.
But there are still many people who insist that exchanging four division-level ships for intelligence is too high a price to pay.
They believed that giving out two division-level ships was definitely the upper limit.
After final discussion, the military decided to put forward these two plans for the government to consider comprehensively.
The government clearly supported the second option and only provided two division-level ships.
Moreover, not only can division-level ships not fight in the Empire, they also don't give out much ammunition.
This is not an intentional embarrassment by the government; it is simply a subconscious risk control instinct.
Building warships requires a very high level of industry, and the same goes for ammunition. Among rebels or pirates, it is common to have guns but no bullets.
The military subconsciously felt that something was wrong because... the Digital Phantom was fighting against aliens!
Many division-level ships were destroyed like that, which shows how fierce the battle was. The ammunition they needed was definitely huge.
The military argued that if the Digital Phantom encountered danger due to insufficient ammunition, it could cause huge losses.
But the government’s attitude is also very clear: this is an uncontrolled team, and their losses...should we be responsible?
All choices are decided by Digital Phantom itself, so why should we take responsibility?
The military had to point out once again: the team that repaired the alliance's division-level ships had to pay for it out of their own pockets, otherwise they would rather not repair it!
What does this mean? It means that they are gradually cutting ties with the Empire, and we can’t push them further away!
The government was also angry: What would happen if they cut off the uncontrollable forces?
However, considering that if the empire was too indifferent, it might force the other side to form an alliance or federation, the government finally backed down.
They authorized the military to have detailed discussions with Digital Phantom and to make appropriate concessions - that's how negotiations should be.
Then, the military told Digital Phantom that after review, two division-level ships had been approved.
However, there may not be a lot of ammunition. If you need it, you can apply to the military separately.
Those four Alliance division-level ships can also be given to you after they are repaired - although they are a bit old, they are better than nothing.
However, at this time, Jing Yuexin had returned again.
She brought the boss's message: Sorry, we are not interested in this deal!
The military was quite surprised by this answer and could hardly believe their ears: This can enhance your combat effectiveness.
We put so much effort into applying for it, and you're actually... not interested?
Jing Yuexin's answer was, "I'm really not interested. We are short of division-level ships, so we will naturally go to the Alliance and the Federation to grab them."
"Seriously, you said there were four ships before, but now it's only two. You're also controlling the ammunition. This attitude is extremely unfriendly!"
The military repeatedly emphasized its own difficulties and said that as a civilian organization, the military force you possess... is really too strong.
However, Jing Yuexin’s answer was, we didn’t intend to accept it from the beginning, it was you who offered to give it to us.
Now that you have halved your warships, we are not interested in them anymore.
The military was really panicked when they heard this and hurried to report to their superiors, but their superiors asked in return: Did the other party tell us about the entrance to the other world?
The military’s answer was: This is simply impossible. The fact that they are not angry is already a sign of good self-control.
It has to be said that if the people above issue a random order, all the hard work of the people below can be destroyed in an instant.
But the government still requires that you try hard to get information, and the matter of the division-level ship... can be discussed later.
The military had no choice but to bite the bullet and contact Digital Phantom again.
But this time Jing Yuexin didn't bother to hide it, "You want to send four division-level ships, is it really to strengthen our strength?"
"It's nothing more than someone is thinking about it and using the news of the Asura entrance to put pressure on the Federation."
"If there is no such reason, it would be fine for Bai to tell you, but now... we don't want to talk about it."
This is the real reason why they refused the deal.
If it can strengthen the team's strength, who would be willing to refuse easily?
But the government underestimated them because they didn't think of this.
Qu Jianlei thought about it and felt that this possibility was too great. Even though the Federation and the Empire were big enemies, they still maintained information communication.
Our team has figured out the mechanism and source of Asura's invasion and even grasped the entrance. Is this news explosive enough?
The pressure that Asura brings to the Federation is extremely great.
I believe that once the Federation hears similar news, it will definitely be willing to pay any price to obtain detailed intelligence.
Of course, the Empire had this information and was willing to tip off the other side, and this was also because... the pressure of war was too great.
Moreover, although the Federation is currently fighting a desperate battle with the Empire, Guojia itself is on the front line of the battle against alien races.
If the Federation really collapses, it will be the Empire's army that will have to face the Ashura invasion.
Even from the perspective of the loss of one's teeth and lips, the Empire will not sit idly by and watch the Federation collapse.
It would be best if the Federation could respond and make corresponding arrangements after receiving the intelligence, so that the bleeding would continue but not lead to sudden death.
It would be in the best interests of the country only if the Federation's blood was almost shed and the Empire stepped in to clean up the mess.
Therefore, the Empire was certain that with this information, it could gain huge benefits from the Federation.
It is precisely because of this that the military is willing to invest four division-level ships in exchange for the most detailed relevant intelligence.
Otherwise, both the military and the government are quite sensitive, so how could they have strengthened the power of Digital Phantom so much?
There is never love without reason in the world.
But they really underestimated the Digital Phantom. They actually thought that these warriors could not think of this.
Jing Yuexin and others felt that being looked down upon for their intelligence was simply too insulting!
The military personnel understood as soon as they heard it. Well, it turns out that someone had already thought of it.
After the government received the feedback, it was suddenly at a loss as the other party had already figured out who was the one asking for help.
Then they couldn't hold on any longer, so they had to agree to the previous agreement, four ships would be enough, and the ammunition should be supplied as much as possible.
However, this time, the people from Digital Phantom refused to agree. Four ships were not enough, and eight ships were needed to trade intelligence!
This team has always been like this. They don't bully others casually, but if they encounter unfair treatment, they will never tolerate it.
The military will definitely refuse, because doubling the amount is really too much.
Let’s not talk about how powerful Digital Phantom will become after obtaining these eight warships.
Right now, the Empire is fighting on two fronts, and the production of warships is also in short supply!
Then the two sides negotiated again and finally reached a deal of six division-level ships.
However, since they had made more efforts, the military put forward an additional condition: they wanted to obtain complete video footage.
The last time Digital Phantom said something like "the technology is too advanced to be displayed", it really shocked the military.
Unfortunately, Digital Phantom still refused, stating that some of the images still needed to be cut.
What they deleted was the existence of the flaw. The power of this thing is really against the will of heaven.
The serious thing is the existence of the Boundary-Breaking Shuttle, so it’s not a big deal if it’s exposed.
The military obtained a large amount of video footage, and when they went back to study it, everyone was really shocked.
Looking at the densely packed Asura nests that covered the sky, exclamations rang out one after another in the training room!
