Chapter 496 Duke Thomas(1/2)
"Here you go, calm down the shock!" After entering Sifang City, Zhou Sen bought two cups of milk tea and handed one cup to Liao San, who was still in shock.
"Ah...thank you."
Liao San took the milk tea without hesitation. At this time, he was still immersed in the thrilling battle just now and couldn't extricate himself. You know, at that time, he thought he was going to die there, but it turned out that Zhou Sen actually escaped with him.
, the whole process was like a dream.
"Do you have any grudge against that Mark?" Zhou Sen asked, staring at Liao San.
"He..." Liao San hesitated.
"If it's not convenient to say it, just say it." Zhou Sen said calmly.
"There's nothing inconvenient." Liao San had a look of loneliness on his face.
"I don't care." Zhou Sen shrugged.
"Mark and I used to be brothers." Liao San sighed.
"Brother?" Zhou Sen was stunned.
"Yes, we established a public welfare organization together. He served as the president and I served as the secretary-general. It mainly assisted the human interstellar federal government in combating illegal fishing and indiscriminate mining in the interstellar. Later, I discovered that he actually used
He sought private gain under the banner of public welfare. Later, during a crackdown on illegal interstellar fishing, he discovered that he had actually sold the illegally caught prey privately, and seized some illegal mining ships on behalf of law enforcement agencies, and then used them to extort money... According to humankind at the time
The laws of the interstellar federal government stipulate that private public welfare organizations have no law enforcement rights, which means that we can only assist relevant government departments in law enforcement... During this operation, I was injured, and I started to think about quitting..."
"You are thinking of quitting, why does he still hold a grudge against you? Did you report him?"
"No, I don't know the reason. In short, after I resigned, he went out to slander me in various ways, and I didn't bother to argue with him...until a year ago, when sporadic iron-clad giant cockroaches began to break out on Roni, he
He came to me again and asked me to help him, but I refused. After that, he was involved in several coups one after another. He followed the royal family for a while, followed the Duke of Windsor for a while, and the four major empires allied forces invaded the Ronnie planet. He immediately attached himself to the four major empires.
The imperial coalition forces and attacked the Roni resistance army. In short, they just followed the wind and followed whoever was more powerful... In the end, the four imperial coalition forces withdrew, but because the Roni empire was in disarray, he was not liquidated. Instead, he was used for public welfare.
An armed team was formed in the name of the organization... These are some of the messages I heard one after another, but I don't have the specific information. I didn't know that the mecha club had fallen into his hands.
Otherwise I wouldn’t take you there.” Liao San said with a bitter smile.
"In other words, this Mark now has a military force in his hands?" Zhou Sen frowned.
"Yes, and it is said that he has a lot of power, second only to the third princess."
"Will he attack Sifang City?"
"That won't happen." Liao San shook his head.
"Why not?"
"Ronnie Star is now divided among warlords, and there are countless various armed forces. On the surface, the armed force led by the third princess is the most powerful, but in fact, the truly powerful one is the Howard family, that is, Sifang City.
But because the Howard family has never thought about ruling Roni Planet, they have been on the sidelines and have not participated in the competition between various forces, so everyone does not regard the Howard family as an armed force."
“Are there any armed forces supported or funded by Quad City?”
"I don't know about this, but as far as I know, there should be no such thing, because the Howard family just wants to do business in peace and peace of mind, and there is no need to wade into troubled waters."
"No, this is not wading in troubled waters, this is life and death." Zhou Sen's face turned serious.
"What do you mean?" Liao San looked confused.
"Then the Mecha Club is only more than a hundred kilometers away from here. What is the concept of more than a hundred kilometers? For military mechas and suspended armored vehicles, it is only about an hour and a half away. Moreover, Mark's mechas are all equipped with fire engines. Control system, once they break through Sifang City's defense line, Sifang City will instantly turn into a sea of fire."
"Ah... so serious?" Liao San looked shocked.
"It will only be more serious than you think. There may not be a problem if the mecha club is occupied by someone else, but there is definitely a problem with Mark. At least, judging from his previous performance, he is just a speculator who takes advantage of the wind. If the interests are big enough, he will definitely take risks."
"The question is, what benefits will he gain from capturing Sifang City?" Liao San looked confused.
"No, he won't capture it, he will only destroy it."
"destroy……"
"Yes, destruction! Think about it, now is a good opportunity for mechas to flourish. Mecha companies in the five major star regions are all expanding production capacity competition. If the production base of Meteor Mecha Company is destroyed, how much space will be vacated? market share?"
"In other words, someone will bribe Mark?" Liao San was shocked.
"I'm not sure, but the suspicion is high, because Mark has arranged military mechas in the mecha club, so Sifang City has to be on guard." Zhou Sen looked at the night sky in Sifang City. In the night sky, it can be seen that When I saw a suspended armored vehicle cruising in the air, the cold barrel made me feel heartbroken.
"Should we report to the Howard family?" Liao San asked.
"unnecessary."
"Why?"
"If the Howard family can't see clearly, then they won't be able to survive for more than eight hundred years... However, the Howard family is currently very passive, because they don't want to become a warlord on one side of the separatist regime, so they can't take the initiative to eliminate the cancer, or The division is unknown and can only be passively defended. However, the results of passive defense will be very bad. After all, Sifang City is not a military base, but the production base of Meteor Mecha Company. It is impossible to build a defense line in a short time. It is easy to The destruction affects production. Once production is affected, Meteor Mecha Company will not only be unable to complete orders and suffer huge claims, but its market share will also be eroded by mecha companies of all sizes." Zhou Sen's brain was running rapidly.
"What should we do?"
"Dead end. Unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Unless the Howard family competes in the five star regions, but from the current point of view, they don't seem to have such plans, so this unless it doesn't make any sense... By the way, there is another way."
"What can we do?" Liao San was a little anxious, because his wife and children were all in Sifang City. If Sifang City was destroyed or destroyed, the residents living in Sifang City would bear the brunt.
"That is, sending private armed forces to secretly attack."
"Private armed forces..." Liao San's eyes lit up.
"Third brother, don't worry. We have thought that the Howard family can also think of it. I think they will find a way. After all, they are a big family that has stood for thousands of years. There is no need for us to worry about it. It's getting late. We have to go to work tomorrow, so go to bed early. Right." Zhou Sen patted Liao San on the shoulder.
"Um."
…
Zhou Sen returned to the villa to practice.
Liao San went home, but when he was in front of his home, he was stopped by a person - Zheng Changgong, director of the security department of Meteor Mecha Company.
Zheng Changgong should be in his early thirties. His figure is not majestic, but he is upright and exudes a military temperament. He looks much younger than Liao San. He is standing alone in front of Liao San's house. In the distance, there are
A group of security personnel wearing exoskeleton armor.
"Hello, Mr. Minister!" Liao San's heart was beating crazily. He didn't expect that Minister Zheng Changgong, who he had only seen in the holographic image, would actually come to him. You know, in the Meteor Mecha Company, Zheng Changgong is a mythical figure. He usually doesn't like him at all.
No trace of it can be seen.
Zhou Sen is the director of the Maintenance Department, and Zheng Changgong is the director of the Security Department. Although they are both directors, the huge gap in their status in the Meteor Mecha Company cannot be overstated.
The total number of employees of Meteor Mecha Company in the five star regions exceeds 10 million. Zheng Changgong is responsible for the overall security work of Meteor Mecha Company in the five star regions. He has at least more than 30,000 subordinates. Zhou Sen is just one of the maintenance workers at the headquarters.
The minister and all his subordinates add up to more than forty people.
"Hello, third brother." Zheng Changgong was very polite.
"..." Liao San was so flattered that he couldn't say a word.
"Third brother, the Duke wants to see you."
"Your Majesty the Duke!" Liao San exclaimed.
"Yes. Please!"
Liao San was completely stunned, his brain went blank, and his whole person became chaotic. In a daze, he didn't know when he followed Zheng Changgong into an extremely powerful armed hover vehicle.
After sitting on the hovercar, Liao San discovered that there was an armed convoy around him, and high-speed aircraft were hovering in the sky.
"Mr. Minister, may I ask..." Liao San was a little uneasy.
"Don't worry, the Duke just wants to ask about your situation tonight. Just tell the truth." Zheng Changgong could see Liao San's inner anxiety, and his tone was very gentle.
"Tonight...are you talking about the Mecha Club?"
"Yes."
"Mecha Club..."
"Don't worry, the Duke will ask you later, just answer truthfully." Zheng Changgong said with a smile.
"Uh-huh."
…
The suspended armored convoy flew along the Sifang City at lightning speed. After making a half circle, it landed in a dense forest. There were some places to park the suspended vehicles in the dense forest, but the ground was paved with simulated turf.
In the courtyard, there are several movable armed fortresses. This kind of fortress is actually a turret, equipped with high-speed laser cannons, which can destroy any near-earth aircraft and is extremely powerful.
There is a low building in the dense forest. Around the building, there are some security personnel wearing exoskeleton armors on duty. In addition to the security personnel wearing exoskeleton armors, there are also some standing in the darkness of the dense forest.
Steel mecha.
The security is tight.
Obviously, this is a secret official residence of the Howard family.
Under the leadership of Zheng Changgong, Liao San passed through a security machine and then entered the building.
The decoration inside the building is not luxurious, but it looks simple and clean...
…
We walked through a twisting classical corridor, and then turned into a small garden. Next to the garden was a small reception room.
To be continued...
