Counterattack [Interstellar] - Chapter 59
Alan looked at Admiral Barker quietly, unexpectedly calm in his heart.
“You probably also know that Pei Xuan was doing spy work at the time, assassinating, stealing information, buying manpower among the Leisting officers, he did almost all the work that you can think of and made public during the war. Of course, this is not the most important thing. The thing that made Emperor Leistine gritted his teeth the most is that Pei Xuan has never missed his hand…As the right arm of Alston, as a knight of His Majesty the Emperor for many years, Pei Xuan has naturally had many experiences. People’s place, but almost always retreat when performing tasks. This is not something that everyone can do.” Admiral Balk sighed and shook his head when thinking of the time when most of the star field was in war. Said, “Even before Admiral Pei Xuan was killed, Leistine’s people didn’t know whether this spy, codenamed Dagger, was a male or female, fat or thin.”
Admiral Barker whispered: “For such a person, such a person who has wandered on the blade for seven years, do you think he will easily expose his whereabouts and be surrounded by Leistine?”
Allen narrowed his eyes slightly: “It was Alston who betrayed him.”
Admiral Barker smiled bitterly.
“I did make such an assumption before. First, Alston was afraid of Pei Xuan’s meritorious service, so he would cross the river to demolish the bridge, but if this is the case, the time will not match. After Pei Xuan’s death, the war continued for another five years. Even if Alston wants to do it, it should be on the eve of the end of the war.” Allen pursed his lips slightly and said lightly, “And I checked, although Pei Xuan’s expeditionary force was equipped with the most advanced starships and mechas of the empire at the time, But there are not many soldiers in his hand, far from enough to pose a threat to Auston’s rule.”
“The role of Pei Xuan in the battle with Leistine is very important. It can make Auston break this arm cruelly. There must be something more important waiting for him to exchange Pei Xuan’s life…” Allen Looking at Admiral Barker, “Is that what I thought?”
Barker nodded in silence for a while: “Yes.”
“In the seventh year of the war with Leisting, Auston had a major command error accident. The specific situation has not been found out. At the time, I was on the Western Front and I didn’t know much, I just knew The situation is endangered, and the war has burned to the main line star field battlefield where Alston is located.”
“Now I have to say that it was a mistake to start the war with Leisting from beginning to end. Their star field is not as vast as ours, and there are very few star fields that need to be secured. Moreover, this kind of star thief-born nation is good at working in various environments. In the next battle, their starships are far more than ours. They are very mobile and can move the capital almost at any time. We were given the upper hand from the beginning, so after the main line troops were disintegrated, they were almost defeated. “
“Alston’s command error exacerbated this situation. At that time, Lesting’s main force was under pressure and threatened Allston’s life on the front line. I and Lieutenant General Karl on the southern front were receiving news. We immediately sent troops back to support, but unexpectedly we did not encounter the big troops mentioned by Aston. A few days later, the expeditionary force where Admiral Pei Xuan was located revealed that it was besieged and suppressed by the main troops of Leistin. I just passed it back.” Aston was exhausted when he mentioned this disgraceful past, he shook his head and said in a low voice, “The situation at that time was very complicated, and I couldn’t explain many details to you one by one. In short,… When Leistin was smashed into the hinterland and threatened his life, Alston betrayed Pei Xuan and let people reveal much information about the expeditionary army to Leistin.”
Bark closed his eyes: “Emperor Leisting’s eldest son died under Pei Xuan’s gun. Can you imagine how much Emperor Leisting hates him? After learning that Pei Xuan’s news was true, Leisting turned around immediately. Attacked, and Allston won a respite.”
“At that time, both Lieutenant General Karl and I realized that Alston was going to use Pei Xuan as bait. Lieutenant General Karl had a big fight with Alston in the command room for this reason, and almost did something. It has already happened. We have no way to return to the sky. We can only do our best to cover up this scandal and hope that Admiral Pei Xuan will be able to perform miracles again, but it is a pity… what a military genius is to bow our heads in the face of suppressive firepower. The battle that dragged on for several months finally ended in the expeditionary force being wiped out.”
“In contrast, Yin Peixuan dragged Leistin’s main force for us, and we won very easily on the other battlefields in the next few months.”
Bark looked at Alan with a bleak smile: “Now you know, it’s normal that Alston is better to Pei Yao than to others… One more thing, Alston firmly believes that Pei Xuan will be as loyal as his father. When the safety of his son is threatened in the future, Pei Yao will do everything for the empire like his father…”
Bark sneered: “Think about the Pearl, imagine the Fairy Island, Alston once again bet the right treasure.”
“Now you know everything, Ellen, listen to me, don’t mention it again, Admiral Pei Xuan was completely killed by Alston, if Pei Yao knew the truth back then…” Bark After a pause, it goes without saying, “You know the consequences.”
“What is the consequence?” Allen raised his eyes to look at Bark, and said calmly, “Pei Yao will break up with me for this? Don’t be kidding, it is Auston who killed Pei Xuan. What does it have to do with me?”
Admiral Barker was dumb: “You…”
“Although I don’t quite understand what you are worried about, I have to state my position first.” Allen said in a deep voice, “If Pei Yao wanted to do to Alston because of what happened in the beginning, I would definitely not stop him. “
“We are not the heroes and heroines with ill-fated fate in the movie, and Pei Yao is not the fool who is unsure whether it is right or wrong to anger everything. Alston killed Pei Xuan. That is the grievance between Alston and Pei Xuan, Pei Yao. If you want to avenge your father, it is another grievance between Pei Yao and Alston. From the beginning to the end, he has nothing to do with me.” Allen smiled clearly, “Do you think I will kill Pei Yao? If you lose your own father and then attack Pei Yao? Hand blade this my father-killing enemy? Ha ha… Don’t worry, it’s impossible.”
“In order to save his life, Allen betrayed Pei Xuan and sold the entire expeditionary army that had worked for him for many years. Even if he was killed, he deserved the crime.” Allen was not disturbed, and said, “Take a step back and say, if I were with Allston. Father and son are deeply affectionate, so I might be in a dilemma because I have to protect my relatives, but obviously this kind of situation does not exist.”
Alan sneered with a sneer at the corner of his mouth: “My mother was ruined by him for a lifetime. I was under house arrest by him for ten years. Then he let his mistress and **** take the place of Queen Marian and me. This’great grace’ I haven’t repaid him yet, want me to defend him? Dreaming.”
“The cause he planted, the result he inherited, he will do it himself in the future.” Allen quietly distinguished his position from Auston, “It has nothing to do with me.”
Barker was speechless for a long time, and after a while he suddenly chuckled out: “I… actually think what you said makes sense, haha…”
Allen smiled faintly: “So your concerns are non-existent, and I am very grateful that you can tell me the truth of the year.”
“But do you dare to let Pei Yao know this?” Bark suppressed his smile, with a faint worry in his eyes, “Can you guarantee that Pei Yao will see through like you?”
Allen paused and said sinkingly: “He will…I will let him understand.”
Allen smiled suddenly: “Even if it doesn’t work, I have one last resort, did my grandfather forget? I am a guide. After joining me, Pei Yao will never have the heart to alienate me because of other people’s affairs. The kind of people who are unclear about right and wrong, who like to be immersed in the apocalyptic atmosphere that they have created and can’t get out of it.”
“But…I don’t want to make him sad, so please continue to keep Pei Yao a secret about this matter.” Thinking of Pei Yao Allen’s heart is soft, “Let him always think that his parents died for the empire. “
Barker nodded: “That’s natural.”
Allen prepares everything with both hands. After receiving the assurance from General Barker, he said: “But if Pei Yao knows all this in the future, please be silent about what I already knew. I’m not afraid that he will know. The truth of the year, but I can’t let him know that I was also hiding it from him.”
Barker laughed and promised: “Well, I will treat it as if nothing happened today.”
Allen smiled: “That’s good, as for Pei Yao’s hatred… I will avenge him.”
