Restoration [Interstellar]

In the middle of the night, the watery moonlight shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows on the big bed in the room.The person on the bed turned over and looked at the vast night sky outside the window.Under the night sky, densely packed mechs stood on the wide field, glowing with a warm metallic luster.

Xia Xi sighed, and finally resigned herself to jumping off the bed, put on her nightgown and came to the window, looking at the starry sky.

He identified the constellations in the night sky and looked for the direction where Ludwig's army left. It is said that the light from the stars of the galaxy where the central star is located can also be captured here.Xia Xi didn't know which one of the stars in the sky that light came from, but when he looked up in that direction, he had the feeling that he could see Ludwig.

The battle ahead is changing rapidly, coupled with the information blockade, every time Xia Xi gets all the latest information about Ludwig, it is old news that has been delayed.He was extremely worried, but thinking about it from another perspective, he was also relieved.The country has just recovered a little bit of vitality, and it cannot stand a long and protracted battle. It is best to attack quickly and retreat quickly. After the enemy is forced back to the original border, it is best to retreat a little more.The Federation has also stretched to the limit, and a single defeat can knock them back to their original form.Judging from the news obtained, everything is developing as Ludwig expected, which proves that in less than two months, he will be able to usher in a victorious army at the port.

Xia Xi stroked the brain on his wrist. At this time, he wanted to see Ludwig especially, but when he thought of what he saw when he turned on the video yesterday, he immediately blushed again.

Forget it, let's not disturb Ludwig's sleep... Xia Xi turned and went back to the bed, counting sheep with her eyes closed.Let's honestly send a video invitation tomorrow morning.

However, at the same time, Ludwig was not resting as Xia Xi thought. He was sitting in the meeting room with several generals, looking at the big screen in front of him. dialogue translated.And at the other end invisible on the screen is Wen Zheng, their first spy in ambush in the Federation, the personal butler of the Generalissimo.

The simple matter of instigating Wenzheng's rebellion almost made the imperial authorities unbelievable, because he took the initiative to join him, and the reason for his treason was that his mother, who was the housekeeper of the Herman family, was given to others as a plaything. In just a few months, he was tortured to death.

However, the teenage Wen Zheng immediately decided not to be loyal to the real culprit, the Federation, and defected to the Empire without hesitation.At that time, no one knew that Reinheide Hermann, whom he served, would become a generalissimo, but from such a family, he would at least be a general.After several trials, Wen Zheng's information was entered into the files of the empire, and he became a spy. When he wanted to quit all of this, the empire was obliged to take him back to the country and make him a citizen of the country.

Lines of military secrets were translated into the imperial language and presented on the screen, but there was nothing critical about it.Ludwig frowned, usually he didn't need to deal with the information, but this time, Wen Zheng asked to report directly to him.Is that all that is said?

At this time, a new line of text suddenly appeared: "I think the Generalissimo has discovered what I am doing, but his attitude is very strange, as if he is actively providing information to me, the defense work of the Generalissimo's office has never been like it is now So lax, he even linked his office computer to his bedroom computer, knowing that doing so would only increase the vulnerability and insecurity of the system."

"Exposed?" Ludwig clicked his tongue, "Ask him if he will stop all this now and prepare to return to the empire. If so, we will deploy now."

The code breaker entered a series of words that seemed to be asking about the weather, and Wen Zheng quickly replied: "The Generalissimo believes that this battle must be defeated, and he is worried that if he fails, he will be responsible for the failure of the Federation and be thrown into a military prison." .I thought we might be able to get him to defect to the Union and become our citizen."

Ludwig narrowed his eyes, tapped the table with his knuckles, and asked the people beside him, "What do you think?"

"This may be a trap." An admiral whispered, "Maybe Herman has discovered everything, and then deliberately let down his vigilance, just to lure other nails in our ambush, and take the opportunity to catch them all."

"But it's not impossible to send someone to get in touch." Another major general said, "Even if he disagrees, he can take the opportunity to release rumors that the generalissimo will surrender and treason, to shake his prestige in the army."

"Give it a try." Ludwig finally made a decision, "Make a personal choice, and this matter should be done as soon as possible. Tell Wen Zheng that I welcome Mr. Hermann as a citizen of the Empire."

The code breaker nodded, and entered a paragraph again.

On the other side, seeing the response from the empire, Wen Zheng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then he breathed out again.The empire sent people to test Reinheide. It would be fine if they reached an agreement, but what if they couldn't?What if the empire didn't want to accept him and sent someone to assassinate Reinheide?

His relationship with the empire was just cooperation. He never believed that if he was imprisoned, the empire would send someone to rescue him.He served the Empire only for revenge.Adhering to the principle of absolutely not trusting anyone, he has lived carefully until now, serving as the personal butler of the Grand Marshal and also serving as the spy of the empire.

According to his original idea, he was going to die with the Federation on the road of revenge.But now...

Wen Zheng touched the hickey on his shoulder hidden in his clothes, and sighed again.

Despite the worries in his heart, Wen Zheng's face remained calm and expressionless, doing what he should do until Reinheide returned to the bedroom.

"Are you in a bad mood?" Reinheide hugged him immediately, rubbing his stubbled chin against his face, "What happened?"

Wen Zheng hesitated for a moment, then asked in a low voice: "You said that after the war is over, you will take me away from here, away from the hustle and bustle of the city and power struggles, and live in seclusion, right?"

"I'm so glad you remembered my oath." Reinheide smiled immediately, "Everything I said is true, I promise."

"I know." Wen Zheng touched the badge on his shoulder, "Then... since you live in seclusion, do you have a plan for where to go?"
