Chapter 341, Fofana
On the Flying Wing Star, a prosperous hotel is now closed to the public.

Gu and Fofana have completely booked this place for the engagement ceremony in the near future.

Many people from afar who came specifically to attend this ceremony have already stayed in the hotel.

Among them are many descendants of the Fofana family.

A group of young people wearing navy uniforms or naval academy uniforms gathered together to chat:
"What do you mean, the representative of the younger generation in Fofana is not going to get married?"

"From now on, we still have to look at the brothers!"

"I think Ruota is very good. You have to shoulder everyone's hopes."

"It's still far, far away..."

"At least you won't 'marry' someone else, right? Hahaha..."

The young people had a high-spirited attitude, with their chests held high, and they told recent stories about their families.It's not necessarily how much malice there is, but the original jealousy has more or less an outlet to vent through this matter.

This is normal.

Among the group of people, leaving aside those who were still studying hard at the Naval Academy, the one with the highest military rank among those who had already taken up positions was just a major.

A major at this age is already quite impressive in the navy.He is still young, and with the support of his family, and with a few more years and more seniority, if he can make some military exploits, he will not be unable to hope for the rank of general in the future.

But this kind of thing also depends on who you compare it with.

There is a woman in the family who is about the same age and is already a general.

It's hard not to be jealous.

They didn't think much about anything else, they just complained that the Yu family was too partial and gave Yelicia too much preferential treatment.

After graduating from the Naval Academy, why should Yelicia be able to get the position of acting captain while everyone has to work their way up from a junior officer?Why did they set up a stage specifically for her, conduct an exercise, and just rely on the results of the naval exercise to let her skip another level, become the captain of a large cruiser like the Quintet, and obtain the rank of commodore?

Now he is mobilizing the family's connections in the upper echelons, bragging wildly, and directly promoting Yelicia as a star from the sky, an unparalleled genius fleet commander...

Come on!
A pig can fly up with such an opportunity, but if you give it to me, I can definitely do better than Ye Lixia!

How many of the young descendants of the Fofana family would have such thoughts?

I don’t know, but at least there are probably some people gathered here.

However, these jealous words are not easy to express.Yelicia is truly a representative of the younger generation, and her position here is no longer on the same level as them.Saying those words will only make people laugh.

But now, Yelicia is getting married, and some words can be said in another way using this excuse.

During the chat, one person suddenly pulled his companion next to him and made a look.

Others followed his gaze and saw that a young woman wearing an Imperial Rear Admiral uniform was walking by not far away.

Everyone immediately stopped talking.

Even if it was under the pretext of Yelicia's marriage, some things could be said in private, but there was no need to do so in person - I didn't have the guts.

But Yelicia walked straight towards them.

Her head was held high, her neck extending from the tight neckline of the dress was fair and slender, her eyes looked down at everyone with arrogance and contempt, and the general star shone brightly on her epaulettes.

Feeling uncomfortable being looked at by her, and feeling a little guilty, someone said sarcastically: "Sister..."

As soon as the title came out, Yelicia waved her hand.

"Major, you are to call me General."

"Yes." The major, the highest-ranking young man, instinctively stood at attention, saluted, and said: "Hello, General!"

Yelicia's eyes immediately looked at the others.

Everyone she saw could only stand at attention and salute.

This scene, in the eyes of others, does not feel inconsistent at all.

A group of junior navy officers stood at attention and lined up to receive instructions from a general. Is there any problem?

Looking at these cousins ​​and junior officers in front of her, Yelicia originally wanted to say some sarcastic words, such as ridiculing them. None of them had much achievements in the military academy, and their performance in the army was not outstanding. Even if It's the family that wants to support, but you guys are all a bunch of mud who can't support the wall.

She is qualified to say that.

They all come from the same family, is there any difference in their starting points?The family's influence has helped a lot, such as the Naval Academy, which is extremely difficult for civilians and normal people to get into. The Fofana children can get in as soon as they want, and they are all in the top class.

But within the family, aren’t everyone the same?
And I, Yelicia, am top-notch in all the grades in the Naval Academy, and I am the first in my class in many areas, and have maintained this status for many years, throughout my entire academic career.In this way, she would have the confidence to qualify as an outstanding graduate of the Naval Academy. If she could graduate, she would be awarded the rank of colonel and become an acting captain.

Her cousins ​​all had poor grades in school, so why should they compare with her?

He also talked about the military exercise that made Yelicia jump from acting captain to brigadier general. It was not specially prepared for her. She just had such an opportunity. She went in, the family set up the stage, and she was good at singing. To become the protagonist.Only when the foundation of one's own ability is established can the family's efforts be effective.

She was not the only member of the Fofana family to participate in that exercise, so why didn’t you guys sing any tricks?
Yelicia never denied that the Fofana family had given her everything.Without her family, it would be a luxury for her to even enter the Naval Academy; even if she got in, even if she got straight A's, without her family, even if she got an outstanding graduate, she wouldn't be able to become a captain directly. A certain position on the starship began to pass seniority.

However, others can say that only the younger members of the family like her are not worthy of saying so.

You have the same conditions, but you can't do one-tenth of what I do. Why are you so embarrassed here?

However, Yelicia still said nothing in the end.

When she was about to say these words, she looked at the young people standing in front of her, looking a little uneasy, and suddenly felt very boring.

It’s pointless to bully people who are far below your own level;
These unpromising younger members of the family are not interesting themselves;
The words they said about 'getting married' made her even more bored.

All the words he wanted to spit out disappeared in a sigh.

She waved her hand and shouted for dismissal.

The young people rushed to salute as if they had been granted amnesty, and then ran away one after another.

As for Yelicia, she no longer cares whether these little guys will use this incident to make up their own words like "showing off one's prestige".

She was quite disinterested and wandered from the hotel lobby to a temporary office.

She knocked on the door, got permission, and walked in.In the office, there was an old man sitting.

The anchor and cornerstone of the family, he is known to outsiders as Old Fofana. He is a war hero who retired from the Imperial Navy with the rank of general.

He has retired for many years, but his influence still exists in the Pegasus fleet and the Imperial Navy in the entire star field.

Yelicia also admired this great-grandfather.

Although, the old Fofana now looks like an ordinary kind old man.

She sat down in front of her great-grandfather.

Old Fofana raised his head and said, "In a bad mood?"

Yelicia hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

There is nothing to hide.

"Because of the engagement?"

"...Yes." Yelicia said, "I understand that a family like ours needs to establish and expand our influence through marriage. However, I thought that I no longer need to be a candidate for marriage. , can you show your own value.”

"Of course." Old Fofana said, "Of course not. You are the most shining pearl in Fofana. You don't need to prove your worth. You are the value yourself. The family will do its best to help you become a general. In the future It will also help you reach a higher position, and I hope you will lead the whole family further in the future. If you don't want this marriage, of course you have a choice. Now I can tell Ms. Wang Qi to end it all. .”

Now that the words have come to this point, Yelicia hesitates:
"...No, that's not necessary. I just..."

Having said this, she ruffled her hair in annoyance.

Old Fofana sighed and said: "You see, little Yelicia, this is our fate. We bear the responsibility on ourselves, and even if no one really forces us, we will still bear it all involuntarily. "

"Little Yelicia, you have to remember that our Fofana family has never been good at fighting for power. We have always established our prestige based on our family's dedication to the empire and placing ourselves in the sea of ​​stars. Our standing The foundation is our ability and our merits.”

"But for a long time, I can only watch with disappointment that the younger generations are becoming less and less elegant than the elders. The family was supposed to be your help, but now it seems that it has become a constraint for many people. They are in the family It has been raised so 'well' that it cannot withstand the wind and rain from the outside world."

"Your appearance makes me very happy, little Ye Licia, you have inherited the style of your predecessors. You are the best Fofana among the younger generation, and that boy Gu Hang seems to be among their Gu family, The best one. There is no talk of you marrying Gu or him becoming Fofana. What Wang Qi and I mean is very simple. In the future, we need a 'union', a deeper combination."

"The situation in the Pegasus Star Region will become increasingly chaotic, and the war between the Dragon Eagle Star Region and the iron-toothed green-skinned aliens will become more and more intense. Everything in the future will undergo great changes. But, my child, it is possible for me We can no longer see that day. And the Gu family has a natural bond with us."

"Let the best people from both sides come together and we need to fight the storm together."

Great-grandfather's words made Yelicia lose her mind for a while.

Old Fofana didn't say anything more. He just pushed a document on the table forward.

Yelicia asked: "What is this?"

Old Fofana said with a smile: "Marriage will never be a shackle for you. Look at this first."

She picked up the document, glanced at it, and looked at Old Fofana in surprise.

"Great-grandfather...this...do you...do you suggest that I accept it?"

"I don't make any suggestions. To be honest, I don't know whether this is bad or good. How you choose is entirely up to you."

Yelicia was in a lot of trouble.

"There's no need to rush to give me an answer now. Maybe you should discuss it with your fiancé."

"Fiancé..." Yelicia was quite embarrassed when she heard this title.

……

"I don't make any suggestions. To be honest, I don't know whether this is bad or good. How you choose is entirely up to you."

Gu Hang said this to Ye Lixia.

He just arrived at Feiyi Star today and checked into the hotel.

There is no custom that the two parties cannot meet before the engagement ceremony. After Gu Hang came here and settled down, the first person he met was his mother Wang Qi, and the second person he met was his future daughter-in-law, Yelicia Fofana.

When the two first met, the atmosphere between them was still a bit unfamiliar and even awkward.

But Gu Hang was pretty good in this regard. He used the topic of fighting side by side before to bring the atmosphere between the two of them back to normal.

Then, Yelicia mentioned one thing:

She now had an 'opportunity', or 'challenge' in front of her.The Navy Headquarters in the Dragon Eagle Star Region wants to mobilize half of the Pegasus fleet to leave the defense areas of Pegasus and several surrounding star regions and go to the star regions occupied by the iron-toothed greenskin aliens to participate in the greenskin war.

This matter is not small.

In the past, the Pegasus fleet has received several orders to participate in the Greenskin War. Almost every time, the war reached the point where the Pegasus fleet had to be mobilized, which meant that the intensity of the war had risen to a certain level.

That means the stakes become very high.

The Iron-toothed Greenskins are not primitive greenskins. Their plundering fleets have dozens of numbers, including large battleships.

After Yelicia led the team to the occupied star area, she not only did safe work such as ground support, she might have to have a head-on decisive battle with the greenskin fleet.

In something like a naval battle, if you lose, you will have no way to survive. If the ship explodes, you will definitely not survive.

This is a war that really kills people and is no joke.

Yelicia doesn't have to go. She is a general trained by the Fofana family and the hope of the next generation. She cannot be given away casually.

But equally, this is also an opportunity to earn merit.

She expressed her confusion about this matter to Gu Hang.

Gu Hang, on the other hand, said the same thing as old Fofana, leaving the choice completely to Yelicia herself.

Then, he added: "Although I'm not sure, I think that if you want to go, I fully support you. Because this is you, this is the Ye Lisia that I know and appreciate."

Yelicia smiled like a flower.
