Chapter 2206

Li Yao sighed in his heart.

The real situation of all classes in the Empire was very different from what he had imagined before he came to the center of Xinghai.

At that time, he had been foolishly expecting that the real Empire would be "the people who live in dire straits, hate those in power, and cherish the true cultivation of the previous dynasty. As long as he can raise his arms, he will surely follow."!

The reality is too complicated. The practitioners of the Empire are good and bad, and they can't distinguish between the true and the false. Even general Lei Chenghu, who is a little better in the smoke and mud, also has a great misunderstanding of the road of Xiuzhen.

"Just say two things, you can roughly understand the character of general Lei Chenghu."

Li Linghai said, "first of all, the eldest son of general Lei Chenghu also worked in the army. He used the Starship of the thunder fleet to do some smuggling business.

"In fact, this kind of thing is too normal to be normal any more. Most of the fleet of the Empire was originally private soldiers of nobles and warlords. No matter how they used it, it was natural.

"What's more, after general Lei Chenghu broke up with all the forces in his hometown and came to the front line, he became a rootless Piaoping. The only thing he owned was this fleet.

"The materials allocated by the Senate alone may be able to maintain the normal operation of the fleet, but what about the resources needed for self-cultivation?

"So, at that time, almost all the fleets, especially the deep space fleet, which had the ability to cross the world and gallop deep into the sea of stars, were more or less running their own" business ", which was a mixture of battle groups, transport caravans and privateering fleets.

"It's an open secret. Even the Senate can only turn a blind eye.

"But general Lei Chenghu, knowing that his eldest son was using the fleet for personal gain, made the matter public, and selflessly sent his eldest son to the military court to be sentenced to death in accordance with the Imperial military law thousands of years ago!

"Later, it was the Senate, who was shocked, who mediated and implemented an" amnesty "on his eldest son. Only in this way could his eldest son's life be saved. But since then, his eldest son has carried a permanent stain on him and never been promoted to the top decision-making level of the" thunder fleet. ".

"Jinglei fleet is a super elite that general Lei Chenghu has been working hard for a hundred years. It is the most powerful armed force in the Empire except for the private soldiers of the four general election emperors and marquis. It's not acting when it's harsh on the eldest son. It's really selfless and has no ambition."

Li Yao slowly exhaled a mouthful of turbid air.

The noble character of general Lei Chenghu is really... Not to mention the cultivator, even among the cultivators, it is extremely rare.

At least, many of the military leaders in Xingyao Federation are closely related to the political and commercial circles. Although they are not able to use the federal fleet to smuggle, they can never do the same as general Lei Chenghu.

"The second thing is that general Lei Chenghu's second son was originally a middle-level immortal cultivator in jiedan period. If he wanted to attack the crucial" golden elixir "realm, he naturally needed to consume a lot of resources."

Li Linghai continued, "he knows his father's temper and doesn't dare to play tricks in private, but he honestly reports to the high-level of the fleet.

"For ordinary nobles and warlords, if their own flesh and blood want to impact the realm of the golden elixir, it is natural to smash down as many resources as they have, and even use resources far more than ten times of those in poor families to escort them, improve the probability of success, and reduce the risk of being possessed.

"No matter how fair, honest and selfless they are, they should at least allocate the right resources according to the standards set by the black star emperor in the past?

"After all, it's good for the thunder fleet and the whole empire to rush to the golden elixir, even if you are a first-class master.

"However, general Lei Chenghu refused to approve the application for the resources of his own flesh and blood. He did not even want to give his youngest son a" golden elixir activator ". He even repeatedly ordered him not to attack the golden elixir!"

Li Yao was stunned: "why?"

"General Lei said that his own son knows best that his younger son has mediocre talent, average qualification and extremely poor bone. He is not the material for cultivation at all. He was destined to be an" original person. "

Li Linghai explained, "as a result, his family secretly consumed a lot of resources to wash marrow and cut sutras for the little son, remould himself, and constantly stimulate the spiritual roots. Finally, relying on the astronomical number of crystal stones and natural resources, the little son was forced to accumulate a" jiedan period "of cultivation.

"Although the youngest son became an immortal in the jiedan period, it was a serious waste of resources, if they were not consumed by his youngest son, they would be allocated to those" right people ", such as those who came from the poor but had great cultivation potential, even for ten jiedan periods, Or a primordial period.

"Now, the younger son wants to impact the golden elixir realm, and according to his repeated evaluation, the probability of success is very low, no more than 5%. In most cases, he will waste a lot of resources and damage the overall interests of the Empire.

"The so-called way to cultivate immortals is to break through the old and hypocritical ethics, allocate precious resources to the right people in the most ruthless way, and finally promote the rapid progress of the whole civilization.

"In a word, only the strong are entitled to resources, and the weak are not worthy of them, and they should never waste any resources.

"His youngest son is a weak man and a waste. It is his biggest concession to be a father that he did not let him live his life as an" original person ". As the commander of the thunder fleet and the general of the real Empire, he will never allow such a waste of resources to happen again.

"So, he hopes that his little son can completely die of this heart, and keep his cultivation in jiedan period. With such strength, he will be loyal to his country."

Li Yao was stunned: "ah?"

This general Lei Chenghu is too... Inhuman, isn't he?

Although it is true that "optimal allocation of resources" is the truth that human civilization continues in the dark universe, this practice is really extremely cold!

"Don't think that general ray is just talking big."

Li Linghai said faintly, "general Lei thinks so, says so, and does so.

"He has been guarding the front line for a hundred years and has made countless contributions. The Senate has never owed him any meritorious service or resources, and even more hopes to win him over with high officials. Therefore, whether in the name of the Senate or in the name of the four election emperors' families, there are countless kinds of resources, talents and treasures that are rewarded, presented or allocated to him.

"If he left all these things behind, even if he piled them up by cramming, he would be able to pile up his offspring and blood into a master of higher grades.

"But at most, he left only one tenth for himself and his family, and the rest nine tenths were sent to the grassroots officers and soldiers in the front-line war zones, to the poor officers and even ordinary soldiers who came from poor families and didn't have enough resources to stand out in the battle.

"After a hundred years of selfless training, many officers of the expeditionary force in the front fleet have been favored by general Lei. Some officers who were favored a hundred years ago and thus changed their fate have even climbed to the decision-making level of their own fleet, that is, general Lei's prestige, half of which is from fighting, and the other half is from this."

Li Yao was moved and stunned for a long time before he said: "so... What happened to general Lei's little son?"

"Dead."

Li Linghai said faintly, "although general Lei repeatedly forbids his younger son to attack the golden elixir realm, who can resist the temptation of becoming stronger in the world where the law of the jungle and the winner is king? General Lei's youngest son secretly collects resources and takes risks to rush through the customs. As a result, he is possessed and dies.

"It is said that he was not killed on the spot when he was possessed. If he threw a lot of resources, he might be rescued, but general Lei himself sentenced the death of his youngest son. General Lei said that he had no judgment and was controlled by ambition. There was no need to waste national resources.

"General Lei said that looking at his little son's face. Not long after that, his little son vomited blood and died."

When Li Yao heard this, he was already sweating.

"What kind of immortal is this?"

He asked again in disbelief.

"This is what a true immortal should be; This is the real Xiuxian Avenue! "

Li Linghai's eyes once again showed respect and admiration. "If not such a noble and selfless person, how can he lead human civilization through the dark fog of heavy siege, and how dare he boast that Xiuxian Avenue must be a more advanced idea than Xiuzhen Avenue?"

Li Yao didn't want to argue with Li Linghai about this topic. He pondered for a moment and said, "in a word, I have understood that general Lei Chenghu really plays an important role in the military and even the whole empire. If he can be rescued successfully, and if he can fully support the reformers, there will be hope for the cause of" respecting the emperor, fighting against the enemy, and innovating with supernatural force. "

"Yes, in the past, general Lei still had illusions about the Senate. We did not dare to have in-depth contact with him, let alone expose our real strength and purpose to him."

Li Linghai narrowed his eyes and cut off the railway. "But now, we have no way out. As the saying goes," the arrow is on the way, we have to go. "No matter how much we pay, we have to save general Lei Chenghu!"

Li Yao said: "well, where has general Lei been invited to" assist in the investigation "

Li Linghai gave Li Yao a very strange look and said, "you just broke the beehive prison in the city of the sky and manjushahua.

"However, beehive prison's defense level is the top five in the whole empire at most.

"Looking at the whole empire, the prison with the most strict defense and the highest level of criminal detention is Shenwei prison!"
