As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the stadium suddenly changed.
Not to mention how ugly the faces of the marshals of the empire became after receiving the bad news from the edge star area, even the faces of the marshals of the federation became gloomy, and the terrifying atmosphere suddenly filled the entire surroundings.
But the most obvious change was not here, but on the field. The mecha soldiers on both sides, who were originally assisting each other, suddenly turned against each other the next moment.
The strange beast did not try to stop the imperial mecha soldiers above the stadium, but instead attacked the federal mecha soldiers closest to him.
The sound of the energy cannon storing energy very close to him immediately aroused Tang Sheng's vigilance. He turned around and suddenly found that the imperial mecha soldier who was assisting in the battle just now had pointed the muzzle of the energy cannon in his direction and had begun to store energy in the energy cannon. The next moment, the energy cannon shell would attack him.
But what was worse was that the energy cannon shells on Tang Sheng's mecha had been used up just now, and there was no time to replenish them. He was completely unable to engage in a direct confrontation with the opponent and destroy the opponent's energy shells to increase his chances of survival.
Of course, since Tang Sheng could feel that the energy cannon was storing energy at the first moment, he was also able to react at the first moment and avoid the attack range of the opponent's energy cannon.
However, at this moment, Tang Sheng was unable to do so.
Because behind him was a team of support soldiers who were struggling to treat the seriously injured and unconscious people. There were too many wounded who had been knocked unconscious by the impact, and the support soldiers were short of manpower and unable to transfer these seriously injured and unconscious people to a safer place. They could only activate the emergency treatment plan and awaken the consciousness of the wounded while carrying out emergency treatment.
But this process will take more or less some time. If Tang Sheng dodges at this time, the ones who will bear the bombardment will be the support soldiers and the wounded below.
We can only bet on the thickness of the mecha and whether it can withstand this bombardment.
But just as the energy cannon was fired and was about to hit Tang Sheng, another mecha suddenly rushed over and blocked the cannon fire.
However, the mecha that rushed up did not use the energy cannon to blow away the opposite imperial mecha soldier, but directly deployed the mecha's energy shield. But because the distance of this attack was too close, it failed to completely block this energy cannon. It could only unload part of the force, and the rest of the aftermath was still borne directly by the mecha's body.
Fortunately, this is the Federation's most advanced mecha, and its endurance is obviously two points better than Tang Sheng's mecha. After this blow, the back of the mecha was burnt, and even a large piece of iron on the surface was burned, revealing the internal structural parts. But overall, the damage to the mecha was not high, and its driver did not encounter any accidents.
The next moment, Huo Yan's voice rang out from this advanced mecha. He spoke in an extremely serious and calm tone:
"Calm down. Even if the lives of us Federation people are worthless, aren't the lives of you Imperial people worthless too? Open your eyes and see clearly. Whose people are these wounded soldiers our support soldiers are rescuing?!"
Huo Yan's aura was not low, although it was not as strong as those marshals, but his serious and sharp words were still heard by many imperial soldiers present, and they subconsciously looked in the direction indicated by Huo Yan.
And the next moment, he suddenly realized what Huo Yan meant.
The unconscious wounded soldiers below were not only from the Federation, but also many of them were civilians from the Empire who came to watch the game. They were now being rescued by the Federation support troops.
"Our Federation isn't that stupid. If we had planned to devour your Empire, we wouldn't have left so many civilians here. Furthermore, there are elite talents here who are on par with your Empire in every aspect. We can't afford such a loss, and our support troops don't need to go to such great lengths to rescue your people."
"Also, just now, I received a message, but it conveyed a completely different and contradictory message. They said, 'It was the Empire that declared war on our Federation. These interstellar beasts were released by the Empire. They even caused pheromone riots in the Federation's central military district, signal blockage, and inability to send troops.'"
Before Huo Yan could finish his words, the oldest marshal in the empire shouted angrily, repeatedly saying:
"No way! Even if our Empire were to declare war on your Federation, we wouldn't resort to such inhumane tactics!! With our Empire's military might, do we even need to resort to such petty tactics to fight you?!"
"So do you think our Federation's military strength is inferior to yours?! Tactics are one thing, conspiracy tactics are another. Our Federation wouldn't resort to such tactics. If they wanted to harass your Empire's outer star regions, our border troops stationed near the border could bomb your intelligence stations at any time, giving you no chance to react, rather than leaving them the chance to inform you stubborn old men."
Just as the old marshal of the empire had finished speaking, Marshal Huo of the Federation snorted coldly. Of course, he would just retort without giving in. At the same time, he moved his hands on his light brain. After a while, a virtual light screen popped up in the air, showing the people of the opposite empire the deployment map of the federal armaments in the border area.
The moment they saw the map of the Border Federation's military deployment, the faces of the marshals of the opposite empire suddenly became uglier, blue and black.
It's clear that the military equipment on this map is new, and the quantity is extraordinary. The Federation wouldn't be so idle as to spend so much money on unnecessary military supplies, and the quantity is extraordinary. So, there's only one possibility: the Federation does intend to declare war on their Empire! But not at this time. At least not yet, there's no sign that the Federation has used this military equipment!
In this way, their empire would have to admit that there was really no need for the opposite federation to take action against them now. Someone was instigating and challenging the friction between their two political systems.
At that moment, the marshals of the empire were brainstorming for a while.
But the old marshal was an old marshal after all, so he would not take too long to give orders. Instead, he was quite decisive. The next moment, the empire issued the following order:
"Control the beasts first and rescue the wounded first. All those who can move must cooperate with the Federation first. We can deal with other situations later!"
Fortunately, with the addition of powerful marshals and other strong people, the tide of monsters on the field was quickly brought under control. The most difficult Sky Zerg seemed to be more interested in filling their stomachs and had no intention of attacking them.
After the Sky Zerg had almost eaten up all the special metal, an experienced marshal and several lieutenants quickly led the Sky Zerg away.
Almost two hours after the incident, the situation on the field finally stabilized, and even the participating military academy students joined the support troops to help rescue the wounded.
On the contrary, the marshals from both the Empire and the Federation, Huo Yan and Mecha Team 2, etc., all moved to the largest VIP room on the stadium side to discuss the most tense situation.
The situation on both sides was very tense, and the Empire's position was expressed very quickly. Almost as soon as they sat down, they gave a detailed explanation of the specific intelligence they had received previously.
The location of the attack was in the edge star area near the border line, and the attack happened very suddenly, catching the edge star areas of the empire off guard and causing several people to be seriously injured.
But soon, military support from the edge star area arrived. However, when they arrived at the scene, the attackers had already disappeared without a trace. Only some traces of federal weapons and some picked-up information about plans such as "deliberately creating a tide of alien beasts" were left at the scene. Their faces changed and they did not dare to delay at all, so they passed the news to the old marshal of the empire.
Hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but frown, and they all smelled an unusual smell.
After a long while, Huo Yan finally spoke to break the silence at the scene after Marshal Huo nodded in agreement. While speaking, Huo Yan projected the information received on the light computer into the air in the form of a virtual light screen.
"The circumstances of this 'alien beast invasion' have been investigated. Just an hour ago, Marshal Lin sent me an urgent military report. They discovered that the wormhole they were supposed to have closed had been artificially reopened at some point. Around the wormhole, there are traces of alien beasts moving around. Marshal Lin and his men strongly suspect that the alien beasts that caused the commotion in the Federation Center followed them and sneaked in through the wormhole. Furthermore, they also discovered traces of weapons accidentally left behind by Imperial soldiers near the wormhole..."
"So, General Huo Yan, are you saying that this is why Marshal Lin believes the Empire has declared war on us?"
"That's right. Marshal Lin thought so at first, but not long ago, he corrected this assumption. The traces left by those 'Imperial Soldiers' were too obvious. They didn't seem like the usual habits of Imperial Soldiers at all. They seemed more like traces left 'intentionally' by someone. Moreover, the same extremely bad situation was encountered near Marshal Lin and in the Federal Central Military District. This prevented them from sending out reinforcements and from communicating with us. Marshal Lin can communicate with me now because he was once my mentor and had another little-known communication channel..."
Huo Yan had just finished speaking when the light computer signal from Marshal Lin on the opposite side also came through. The moment they saw the situation on the other side of the light screen, the faces of everyone present couldn't help but change.
On the light screen, an extremely chaotic scene was displayed. Countless corpses and debris of strange beasts were lying on the side. The ground and faces were covered in blood. It was not difficult to tell what kind of horrific battle had taken place there.
But this is not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is that the ground around them is covered with many used pheromone inhibition needle syringes. However, it is obvious that the pheromone inhibition needles are not enough. In order to prevent their soldiers from suffering secondary injuries, many soldiers have shackles on their wrists to prevent them from causing harm to their companions.
The only thing to be thankful for was that they didn't have any Omega companions on this trip, so they didn't have to wear bite masks, otherwise the situation would have been unimaginable.
The situation of the entire team is relatively controllable, and the only one who is affected is Marshal Lin. This is because Marshal Lin is older and his pheromone level is much lower.
With such a scene, what could anyone at the scene not understand? This was clearly a man-made disaster. Someone had deliberately released an information riot factor into Marshal Lin's military aircraft, causing a pheromone riot. However, pheromone riots like this were rare. It looked like...
"It's exactly the same as the 'pheromone inducer accident' over thirty years ago. No, it could even be said to be even more serious than before. It's not injected, but sprayed, and it can infect all of us. And the potency of the drug is significantly stronger than before. I'm afraid the 'dangerous inducer experiment' that caused the accident over thirty years ago hasn't been terminated as required, and someone is still secretly conducting related research..."
Marshal Lin conveyed the information he currently knew in the briefest terms.
Moreover, none of the Beta scouts he sent to the military area to investigate the situation have returned yet, and no information has been sent back.
If he guessed correctly, the situation in the Federal Central Military District was probably similar to his, or even more serious. For example, someone had sneaked into the military district and controlled the remaining Beta soldiers who were still able to move.
Of course, these situations are just speculations now. We have to wait for their people to go to the Federal Military District to investigate before we can know the specific situation.
But this wasn't the most serious information. From the intelligence Marshal Lin had described, it wasn't hard to find a fatal point, which was...
"Someone has rebelled. Right? Marshal Lin, there are two people missing around you who should have appeared in the report."
At this moment, Marshal Huo opened his mouth, seemingly peacefully, but uttered an extremely terrifying sentence.
"Yes." Marshal Lin, who was over sixty years old, closed his eyes and spoke with some difficulty for the first time. He said:
"After the incident, I quickly discovered that Lieutenant General Lin Shoucheng and Major Tang Cheng had disappeared. My adopted granddaughter Lin Ke's laptop was also left at the scene. Following that laptop, our people found clues to the blocking of military communication signals and interference in the empire's outer star regions, including the wormhole incident... These clues are enough to prove that Lieutenant General Lin Shoucheng and Major Tang Cheng...had betrayed me. My adopted granddaughter Lin Ke's laptop was found at the scene, and it's very likely that she was taken away by them..."
Marshal Lin had great difficulty saying these words, and the superiors on the federal side all fell silent.
But it seems that what is happening in the Federation now may not have much to do with the Empire.
Upon seeing this, the marshals on the Empire's side looked at each other. Just in case, they proposed the idea of ​​returning to the center of the Empire first. After a few days, they would send another star ship to pick up their wounded and bring them back to the Empire.
Of course, their empire will pay all the medical expenses for the wounded.
The Federation had no intention of dealing with the Empire at the moment, and without saying much, they just waved their hands and sent them out, including the Mecha Team 2 and others. They had been assigned the task of "investigating the situation in the Federation's central military district."
Accompanying them were Huo Yan, Mu Changfeng and Luo Yang.
Not long after leaving the meeting room where the bigwigs gathered, Mu Changfeng, who had been holding back for a long time, finally couldn't help it anymore and asked:
"Old Huo, do you really believe that Lieutenant General Lin and Major Tang have really defected? Especially that guy Tang Cheng. Although he's a little dumb, his practical skills aren't very good, and he's a bit mean, he's the kind of guy who would risk his life to defend the line! No matter how you look at it, he doesn't seem like the type to defect, right?! And that Lin Ke, I didn't expect she's actually Marshal Lin's granddaughter. Even though she's adopted, I think she's even stranger, isn't she? Several previous incidents all point to Lin Ke, and are they related to that 'induced experimental drug'?!"
Huo Yan had thought about this problem. His reaction was even faster than Mu Changfeng's. After realizing that Marshal Lin was indicating that Lieutenant General Lin and Major Tang might "rebel", Huo Yan immediately explained to Marshal Lin all the strange signs that Lin Ke had shown before.
However, the information provided by Huo Yan not only failed to clear Lieutenant General Lin and Major Tang, but instead allowed Marshal Lin to follow the clues and find other conclusive evidence.
For example, after Lin Ke got into trouble, it was Major Tang Cheng who bailed her out, so it is hard to say that there is no connection at all.
"Also, Lieutenant Lin and Major Tang aren't completely without motive. In some ways, they probably harbor resentment towards the Federation Center. Do you remember when Lieutenant General Lin's beloved wife died unexpectedly during a space voyage? That wasn't actually an accident. The true target of that space voyage disaster was Lieutenant General Lin Shoucheng, not his wife. But Lieutenant General Lin was called back to a mission just before departure, so he survived. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been Lieutenant General Lin's beloved wife and their two children who died in the accident, but Lieutenant General Lin himself would have been on the list of casualties..."
"Wait, Old Huo, what you're saying is... that deliberately caused 'accident' is related to the upper echelons of the Federation?"
Hearing this, Mu Changfeng was a little dumbfounded, but Huo Yan nodded with a heavy expression and said in a hoarse voice:
"To be more precise, it's related to Marshal Jiang, who stepped down over twenty years ago. That Marshal had radical ideas and was at odds with Marshals Lin and Huo, who had just been promoted to marshals at the time. He also initiated the pheromone induction experiment, and the use of this dangerous drug wasn't discontinued until he stepped down. Coincidentally, Lieutenant General Lin Shoucheng at the time happened to be assigned the task of investigating the harmful effects of the induction drug, and so... Lieutenant General Lin Shoucheng became a target."
Huo Yan didn't finish the rest of his words, but everyone understood.
It was obvious that the person responsible for the man-made "accident" that caused the spacecraft crash more than 20 years ago was none other than the retired Marshal Jiang. However, Marshal Jiang died suddenly a few years after he stepped down due to an over-injection of "pheromone-inducing drugs" in private.
If Lin Shoucheng couldn't think straight for a moment, it was not impossible that he would blame the Federal Center for this incident. After all, Lieutenant General Lin's beloved wife and two children were indeed political victims.
"Come to think of it, Old Huo, I remember when we were little, you and I seemed to have met General Lin's youngest son? I think we even played with him for a while?"
"Yes." Huo Yan nodded and replied, "That's little brother Yuesheng. If I remember correctly, Lieutenant General Lin's son is about the same age as us. I think his name is 'Lin Yuesheng'..."
Because it involves dangerous drugs such as "inducing drugs", Luo Yang and several Beta therapists went first, while Huo Yan, Mu Changfeng and the second mecha team went there later. After they were sure that the information riot in the military district would not affect them, they would speed up to rush to the military district.
So, at this moment, Mecha Team 2 was quite close to Huo Yan and Mu Changfeng in front, and unfortunately, Tang Sheng and Geng Zhiqiu happened to be walking in front of Mecha Team 2, leading the team.
So, naturally, the conversation between Huo Yan and Mu Changfeng was heard by Tang Sheng, Geng Zhiqiu and others.
At the beginning, Tang Sheng didn't feel much about what Huo Yan said.
After all, Tang Sheng was not as familiar with the Federal Center as Huo Yan and others. He was just lamenting that such sad things had happened to Marshal Lin's family. But if there was conclusive evidence that Lieutenant General Lin and Major Tang had really rebelled, Tang Sheng would only execute them according to federal military law.
Until he heard the last sentence that Huo Yan said. The moment the name "Lin Yuesheng" came out, Tang Sheng's steps couldn't help but stop, as if he suddenly remembered something, and his face couldn't help but turn pale.
In that instant, a lot of fragmented images flashed through his mind. It was the scene not long after he and his sister were picked up by a passing pirate. An old pirate pointed at a sign and asked him what his name was, was it "Yuesheng" or "Sheng".
At that time, the little Tang Sheng had suffered brain damage and could not remember many things. He only remembered that his mother was missing and that he survived by holding his sister tightly. He could not even remember his own name, even though the badge was picked up from him by the old star pirate, he did not remember it.
But at that time, Tang Sheng was often bullied by other pirates because he was young and not good at work. He often lost the fights. For the sake of food for himself and his sister, Tang Sheng had no choice but to endure it. So when he heard the word "Sheng", Tang Sheng, who had been bullied, said without hesitation that his name was "Sheng", the "Sheng" who could beat many people.
The surname "Tang" was given by the old star pirate who saved them.
It was not until a few years later that the old star pirate felt that he would not live long, so he sent the two half-grown children, Tang Sheng and Tang Tang, to an orphanage in a secondary star district. After moving around several star districts, they finally settled down in an orphanage in the A5 secondary star district.
This happened a long time ago, so long that Tang Sheng almost forgot about it. It was not until the name "Yuesheng" appeared again that this detail suddenly emerged in Tang Sheng's mind, and he had an extremely subtle feeling.
Because according to the timeline, the time when the star navigation crash occurred was very close to the time when the brothers and sisters were picked up by the star pirates.
Before the old pirate sent them away, he mentioned that they might be survivors of a spacecraft crash. They found them not far from the lifeboat, but because they were pirates, they couldn't stay for too long or they would be arrested. So the old pirate quickly took Tang Sheng and Tang Tang away.
These details are so overlapping that it's frightening.
But before Tang Sheng could think about it, Luo Qingmei, Gu Yang and Wen Xiaole came over anxiously, and the first words they said to Tang Sheng and the others were:
"Oh no, Tang Sheng! Tang Tang, Dong Yang, Zhang Shang, and quite a few other spectators are missing. The optical computer can't get in touch with them at all. We've lost contact with them!"
