Start with Planetary Governor

Chapter 12, Commodore Captain

Yelicia felt a little annoyed at the thought of dealing with Gu Hang.

As a serious imperial commodore and captain of a strike cruiser, she was a real big shot in the Pegasus sector.

Who is more important, the identity of a commodore or the governor of the planet?

From the Imperial Navy stationed in the entire Tianma Star District, there are only seven cruisers in total; in comparison, there are nine planets in the Tianma Star District, which is about the same in number.

Neither is a system.The planetary governor has a special status, but generally belongs to the administrative system of the empire; the captain of the starship belongs to the military system of the imperial navy.

In theory, Sector Masters do not have the ability to directly command the Imperial Navy.

Of course, this is not the case.

The Pegasus Fleet was established by the Pegasus Star District. Most of the officers and soldiers were recruited and selected from various planets in the Star District; the starships were also purchased with money from the Star District’s treasury; and the logistics supplies were also provided by the Star District.In terms of missions, the Tianma Fleet is also responsible for the defense of the Tianma star area. It has to cooperate with the star area government, and its independence is indeed not that strong.

In short, the status of the seven cruiser captains and the nine planetary governors in the Tianma star area is not easy to compare, and the difference is probably the same.

But it's different if it's embodied in Gu Hang and Yelicia.

There are nine planetary worlds in the Tianma star area, and although the other eight are of varying levels, they are all vassals at any rate.Only this angry owl star is a big problem.

According to the past practice, Gu Hang became the governor, which is not much different from being sentenced to death with a two-year reprieve. How does it compare with Yelicia?
Yelicia also came from a family. The Fofana family she belongs to is an ally of the Gu family, and they are also supporters of the current head of the star region.

And she herself is a rising star in the military world, the most dazzling rising star in the navy of the Tianma Star Region, the only female and the youngest among the seven captains.

To be able to sit in this position, family background is of course important, but her own ability cannot be ignored.

Gu Hang and Yelicia are very different.

However, the brigadier general also has her own troubles.

It has been nearly two years since she was promoted to the captain of the Quintet, and doubts are still coming and going.Age, seniority, gender... have all become targets of attack.

As for ability?Talking about ability is too idealistic, and it can't be eaten unless it is transformed into unquestionable achievements.

She really suffocated and wanted to fight a beautiful battle.Punch green-skinned warlords, kick chaos traitors, exterminate void zerg...

You can do anything, anyway, you just want to fight a hearty and hearty victory, and return home with honor, who dares to point fingers at the old lady in the future.

In the end, the battle didn't make much money, instead, Nu Xiaoxing came to escort the family's political ally, the young man who was sent to be the governor.

One squat is two years.

She was very upset, but she had no way to resist, so she could only go to the post angrily.

It was already annoying, but that guy was always making trouble for her.

She also doesn't know now whether Gu's side attaches importance to Gu Hang or not.

Speaking of paying attention, why did they get assigned to such a place?It's not impossible to take on the big task of developing Fury Star, but I haven't seen how much resources your Gu family has invested?
But if you don't pay much attention to it, why would the star region government send one of the only seven cruisers in the Pegasus Fleet, that is, the Quintet led by him, to stay for two years?
Can't figure it out.

Don't even think about it.

She considers herself a soldier, so she should be pure and follow orders.

Her order was to ensure that the Owl Star remained loyal to the Empire, to assist the planetary governor, and to provide military support.

In this matter, she never thought of creating difficulties for Gu Hang.She will perform the duties of the Imperial Navy as long as the Governor-General requests it.

In her mind, what she needs to do is nothing more than to deter the surface from the orbit, and strike when necessary. There is no pressure, just do things step by step.

But Gu Hang didn't ask her to help bomb anything, instead he wanted to leave a group of servants and soldiers.

This she did not expect.

She didn't want to give it to her at first, but she was fooled by that guy Gu Hang, so she still gave it away.

Looking back, she still felt regretful.

My old lady can help you fight wars, but you can't abduct my old lady's people!
This is not within the scope of her duties.

Moreover, she is here with the Imperial Navy, and it is true that there are 10 people on board. It seems like a lot, but it takes so many people to start a giant ship with a total length of eleven kilometers.

If Gu Hang took away too many people, it would directly affect the combat effectiveness of the starship.

What's more, the combat power of the navy is all on the starship.Breaking away from the starship, with a population of 10, thrown on the surface, there is not even a splash on the scale of the planet.

Compared with the Imperial Guard, which is specialized in land warfare and consists of millions of people in a legion, their numbers are not an order of magnitude.

Gu Hang took away more than 3000 people, so it wouldn't affect the operation of the starship, but it's a matter of course.

This time, after receiving another communication request from Gu Hang, Yelicia made up her mind that she would not satisfy any request unless there was some combat mission.

After adjusting her mood, she sat upright and asked the technician to connect Gu Hang's communication signal.

Gu Hang's head appeared on the screen in the center of the podium.

"Brigadier General Yelicia, hello, I haven't seen you in half a month, you have become more beautiful!"

The female brigadier general said with a straight face: "Your Excellency Governor, please don't be glib, just talk about things."

"Don't be so serious, I have good news for you."

"what news?"

"Our troops wiped out a rebel army on Fury Owl today, and nearly two hundred enemies of the empire were wiped out."

A group of looters and wasteland bandits, in Gu Hang's description, became 'rebels' and 'enemies of the empire'.

Strictly speaking, there is nothing wrong with what he said.

Yelicia didn't know much about the specific situation on Fury Owl, but despite this, she also knew that what Gu Hang said was moist.

But most importantly...

"Two hundred enemies?" She showed disdain.

Do you have the nerve to bring this victory to me?

"I know, Madam Brigadier General, you don't care about these 200 people, but what if the number in the future may be 20, [-], [-]?"

"Or, to wipe out a green-skinned warlord? To eradicate a heretical cult that doesn't believe in the emperor? Or even destroy the indigenous evil gods?"

Yelicia's expression became serious.

Hearing what Gu Hang said, she subconsciously began to think, if, as he said, hundreds of thousands of traitors to the empire were wiped out, a green-skinned warlord was wiped out, and the evil god was killed, what would this merit be?

Isn't what she is looking for is merit?
Isn't the thing she was most dissatisfied with when she came to Nu Xiaoxing, because it was a waste of time to stay in the pit for two years?
But she is not so easily fooled.

"How do you say that the entire Nu Xiaoxing is about to be turned upside down? Is there such an enemy on Nu Xiaoxing?" She expressed doubts.

"Yes." There was an inexplicable taste in Gu Hang's smile.
