I, from 1000 years ago

Chapter 173

Edward led the military police to take Messarian out of Lin Mo's office.At this time, only Lin Jian and Lin Mo were left in the big room.The atmosphere was a little cold for a moment, Lin Jian stood by the window, watching Edward take Messarian into the transport speed car, and drove towards the Eighth Fleet station.

Messarian will be taken to the naval port where the Eighth Fleet is stationed in a short while, and four Gendarmerie members will accompany them to the Federation.

Lin Jian turned to look at Lin Mo, now he should tell her what happened in detail.

After knocking on the door, the adjutant entered, served tea to the two, and left respectfully without saying a word.Lin Jian looked at the young and new face, and remembered that not long ago, Fisher was the one who did this kind of thing.But for more than a year, everyone has a new position and a new direction.Suddenly, there is a feeling that things are right and people are wrong.

"What are you thinking about?"

A very close voice sounded in her ears, Lin Jian turned her head in surprise, and saw Lin Mo was beside her, looking out of the window as well, watching the speeding car fly away from the tarmac.

"It's nothing." Lin Jian walked away from the window uncomfortably, went to sit on the sofa, calmed down, and decided not to continue making such awkward gestures because of what happened that night. It felt a little naive.So she looked at Lin Mo who came and sat down opposite her and said, "I need to fully understand this matter."

"I know." Lin Mo nodded, and his voice sounded a lot more relaxed than before, "Messarian was under the command of the Federation General Radisna when he was in the Federation. In the Federation's military rank system , there is no first-level general, and the marshal was a general before. And General Radisson came from an old-school military family, and the old-school soldiers have always disagreed with the new leader's approach. Seven years ago, there was a purge between the federal military departments Disputes. Admiral Redis's faction was almost wiped out, and Messarian was one of the few officers who escaped from the federal government."

"Then who is he going to meet this time? Why did the Ministry of National Defense agree or arrange for his operation?"

"Messarian recalled that before the military department was purged, Admiral Radisna believed that Marshal Susekran intended to control the government. And in the past few years, the information sent back by the intelligence agency was indeed the same. The federal government The cabinet is now ineffective, and the military has controlled almost all state affairs. Marshal Susekland has now become the de facto controller of the federal government."

"You mean that the federal government has now become an actual military dictatorship?" Lin Mo's words surprised Lin Jian, but this should still not be the main reason, "Even so, it is a matter within the federal government. Why do we Want to ask about this matter? Democracy or dictatorship, this is their own choice. The cabinet members who appointed the marshal were also voted by themselves, and it is their own business to end up like this.”

"The people of the federal government don't think that their original choice was wrong. On the contrary, they may now think that this is the most correct vote they have made. After taking control of the cabinet, Marshal Sessaclan showed a strong political power. Means, the national income of the 24 galaxies of the federal government has increased significantly. Compared with the previous corrupt and bloated cabinet government, this marshal is now a sacred existence in the hearts of the federal citizens." Lin Mo paused here, as if I want to see Lin Jian's opinion on this matter.

"So what." Seeing Lin Mo's gaze, Lin Jian smiled. She is not really a child under 20 years old. "In a democratic government, the purpose of the army is to serve the government. Once the army replaces the If the government becomes the supreme ruler, sooner or later this army will become a political army with power supremacy, and the country will gradually transform into a similar political group. Political rights are no longer part of life but the whole of life So, what is the essential difference between this and an empire? After all, the federal government is not an empire. Their citizens have been under a democratic value system for hundreds of years, and it is absolutely impossible for everyone to agree with this system. Maybe the current The whole government looks positive, but that's only for the short term, and it won't be long before they think they got the last election right."

"I didn't expect you to have a deep understanding of democracy. I thought you were not interested in these." Lin Mo showed a smile on his face.

Lin Jian twitched the corners of her mouth, but did not return. She was born in a democratic society, and these things were almost just the foundation of the political class back then. "You haven't answered my question yet."

"If it's just a matter within the federal government, of course we don't need to intervene." Lin Mo nodded and began to talk about business, "The key is that the federal government has been vigorously developing its armaments in the past few years. Redis The admiral has always suspected that Marshal Susekland is too ambitious. He may not be willing to be partial to a corner of the Milky Way. In recent years, the federal government's attitude towards us and the Democratic League seems to have become tougher. This time May Sarian will go to meet a person who is a close friend of Admiral Radisna, who is now serving in the federal military. When we meet him, we can try our best to find out what the marshal really thinks."

"You mean, the federal government may take action against us or the Democratic League?" Lin Mo's words surprised Lin Jian. The Three Kingdoms has been in the pattern for hundreds of years. Although there have been frictions from time to time during these hundreds of years, but There has not been a large-scale invasion.And if the Federation really has such a plan, for the Democratic League, the reason for the war is actually not easy to find.But the empire is different, and institutional issues are a big banner to hold high.Therefore, once a war breaks out, the empire will bear the brunt of it and become their first opponent, while the Democratic League on the other side of the galaxy, it is okay to watch the fire from the other side, and maybe they will make some kind of agreement with the federation to deal with the empire together. "What about the Democratic League? Is it possible that they would think of this?"

"This kind of thing is just speculation." Lin Mo shook his head. "We can't influence the NLD's thoughts now. All we can do is to find out the facts and make preparations. Of course, the NLD and the Minister of Foreign Affairs will also go there Try to mediate as much as possible, this is not our business."

"Okay, I understand. Don't worry, I will definitely take care of this matter." This is no longer a personal matter, it is related to the survival of the empire and the interests of the people.Even if her soul does not belong to this country, all her ties at this time—relatives, friends, and subordinates are all closely related to this country, so she must do her best to maintain this country.She doesn't hate war, but she understands the harm of war, so if she can avoid it, she should avoid it as much as possible.

"No, I'm worried." Lin Mo's voice suddenly became louder.

Lin Jian was stunned, and looked up at Lin Mo who stood up from the sofa and walked over.He pressed his hands heavily on her shoulders, bent his tall and straight body, and looked at her: "Remember! This is just an extra task. The main task of your trip to the Federation is Take those students to participate in the competition. No matter what happens, remember, safety first! This is not something you should do, and I don't agree with you doing it, but... ..."

"I know." Looking at Lin Mobing's blue eyes, Lin Jian smiled slowly, "Don't worry, I will come back safely."

Being in this position means taking on the responsibility of this position.Lin Jian understood that Lin Mo might not want her to do this.But this is indeed the best opportunity. There are a large number of teams going to the Federation this time, and there is no better opportunity than this. Messarian can easily sneak into the Federation, and at the same time, he can use this time to investigate .Therefore, although Lin Mo would be worried, the proposal of the military department could not be firmly refuted.After all, he is that kind of person.But now, this rare and straightforward expression of worry is already his maximum limit.

They seem to have been arguing about some things during this period of time, maybe it all comes from her inner entanglement, whether it is surrendering to the emperor or blowing up the ship, she has no intention of challenging his bottom line, but she has to obey heart.This also made the relationship between them seem to be far away, but at this moment, facing Lin Mo's straightforward concern, Lin Jian felt a long-lost warmth in his heart.

The heart that is still missing a corner even though it is filled by friends, finally has a solid feeling of being filled.

The problem of belonging, whenever she felt that she had completely solved it, always inadvertently reappeared in front of her in the small things around her.Sometimes she chooses to escape, and sometimes she chooses to fight back more violently, but these are not the solution. Those problems are accumulated in her heart, and a gap will be corroded in her heart over time.

Perhaps, she still needs this kind of temperature to fill up this vacant corner.Only in this way can we truly feel that we are living in this world after a thousand years.

The warmth gradually penetrated into the bone marrow, colliding with the cold soul, causing bursts of stinging pain.For a moment, the defense mechanism that always surrounds the whole body froze, and Lin Jian's eye sockets began to be a little foggy.

"What's wrong?" Lin Mo's voice sounded from the top of his head, and he sounded a little helpless. He didn't understand why Lin Jian, who had always been hard and calm for the past two years, was shedding tears at this time.The broad palm gently stroked Lin Jian's hair, trying to calm her down.

"It's nothing, I don't know why it seems a little weak." Lin Jian shook his head, reached out to wipe away a tear that had condensed in the corner of his eyes, and shook his head, as if he wanted to shake the weakness in his heart out of his body.Unprepared, Lin Mo hugged him into his arms.

His mind was blank, and his ability to think completely disappeared. Lin Jian intuitively put his face on the hard button of the military uniform, and heard Lin Mo's voice above his head: "It's my fault, I always hope that you can become more Be strong, I have been too strict with you all these years. You are a girl, it’s okay to be weak occasionally, and I’m still there.”
