Chapter 16: Beside the stream, where the rocks are

While Huai Cao Shi was shocked by Xu Le's level of mechanics, Xu Le's heart was filled with endless praise and even awe of fear. He had never seen such a person in his life.

In addition to focusing on mechanics, Xu Le has always maintained a normal rest because his weak body kept ringing. However, Huai Caoshi, who was responsible for controlling the Taojian mecha, had to escape the pursuit of the rebel troops, and constantly attack the other party's mecha, and there was no time to rest.

During the tense escape for many days, Xu Le never saw this nobleman even if he closed his eyes once, but the other party was able to maintain a high concentration and could not even see a trace of fatigue!

The rebels outside the atmosphere of Libanxing, in addition to controlling the Red Rose, were continuously deploying troops into this sea of ​​mulberry trees, like endless waves, constantly slapping on the black reefs, one wave higher than the other, and their strength became stronger and stronger every time. However, Huai Caoshi, who had no rest time, controlled the Taomias mecha and calmly resisted all these attacks in a calm and almost cold manner.

Humans are the first sequence of machines. Xu Le's heart once again heard the words that the uncle said. The longer he contacted, the more shocked he was. It turned out that there was really steel in the world.

The tattered mecha was walking through the dark forest at high speed, and a young man and woman in torn clothes were silent in the dark cockpit.

The roaring Taojian broke through the heavy infantry barrier in the Xinma hills. The encirclement under the heavy rain only left violent combat figures. A certain imperial rebel division that urgently landed into Sanghai was suddenly attacked by Taojian. The division commander died tragically in the beheading plan...

In order to make a promise to die with dignity, for the responsibility of the country, and for some perhaps completely different reasons, Xu Le and Huai Caoshi worked together to continue to escape and fight back day after day with thrilling but violent storm and fierce battles became their entire lives.

The nobles who betrayed the imperial family could not have imagined that they would almost madly look for His Royal Highness in the Mulberry Tree Sea to find His Royal Highness. In fact, no one could have imagined how amazing combat effectiveness would be revealed once the two most extraordinary people in the younger generation of the Empire cooperated together and accomplished their almost incredible goals.

...

In the early morning, the Taomias mecha that had escaped the first air attack of the rebels ushered in a rare temporary rest time. The powerful Your Highness did not need rest like a god or a demon, but the rebel officers and soldiers could not hold on forever under this intensity of battle.

The dim morning light failed to spread the entire earth. The fog around the stream reduced the visibility very much. The broken peach miasma mecha squatted silently in the rocky land by the stream.

Xu Le squatted by the stream and held the stream and slapped the stubble face. The cold stream flowed down the tangled and messy dirty hair, spreading from his neck to his naked upper body, making his body tremble, feeling much more awake, and he couldn't help but smile happily.

Looking back, Huai Caoshi was looking at the electronic manual in her hand silently. The pen pinched between her fingers kept scratching, probably because she was making some contact. The silk coat on her body had long been torn into silk. She changed into a mecha combat uniform. She had not washed it for many days. She seemed to smell the sour smell on it from afar. With the face full of dust, she did not look like a noble princess.

By hunting the rebel mechas, they learned some of the situation on Libanxing, especially after Xu Le successfully repaired the electronic mecha equipment, Huai Caoshi contacted more loyal subordinates and gained more knowledge about the current situation and the inside story of this shocking assassination.

The rebel fleet has controlled the pan-space area outside Lizhan Star. Although warships lacking long-range attack capabilities and cannot control the situation on the entire planet, they have successfully cut off the contact between Tianjing Star and Lizhan Star. Now no one knows what happened on Tianjing Star. His Majesty the Emperor in the great palace group that is as beautiful as a sea of ​​great people.

This was the first rebellion led by aristocrats in a century. Unlike the civilian slaves who once burned like wildfires, the aristocratic rebels had more resources and more powerful force.

The situation on Liban Star was dangerous but strange. Several great lords had surrendered to the rebels one after another. However, the several reorganized mechanics controlled by the Governor's Office - the most powerful army force on this planet - have always maintained a strange quietness. They seemed to have no idea what was happening on this planet, nor did they see those fleets that were showing off their power outside the atmosphere.

By spreading the intelligence from the adventures of subordinates of the intelligence agencies in various places, coupled with Xu Le's analysis and judgment last time, Huai Caoshi guessed the reason for the current situation. The Governor's Office should have been controlled by the rebels, but Governor Ke Baoning did not surrender. The rebels were worried that killing him would trigger a counterattack from the controlled troops of the Governor's Office, so he saved his life.

"Obviously only fools like Louis would do such a stupid thing. They successfully attacked the Governor's Mansion, but they trapped themselves in the mud."

Huai Caoshi thought expressionlessly, then frowned slightly, thinking of several key information sent by her subordinates. It was from these information that she knew that she had not figured out after she was attacked.

Even though the empire's reform measures in recent years have damaged the interests of some great nobles, under the powerful sense of urgency of the father, these nobles still dare to rebel so hastily?

"They actually thought that I killed the Katon."

Huai Caoshi subconsciously looked at the stream. The federal man was taking a bath in the stream at this time, revealing his neat white teeth, which made people smile a little annoyed.

If he knew that he had killed Prince Katon and caused this great turmoil in the empire, could he still be so heartless and blindly happy?

No, he should be happier, Huai Caoshi thought unhappily with her eyebrows frowned.

...

Xu Le felt her gaze, scratched her head for some reason, walked up from the stream, stepped barefoot on the hard stone, and walked in front of her.

He stood calmly in front of Huai Caoshi, not rushing to cover his naked upper body with clothes, because after the luxurious silk coat turned into silk threads, there was no more clothing around him, and he did not have the habit of peeling clothes from the dead rebels.

The more important reason is that it is difficult for Xu Le to regard the Your Highness in front of him as the opposite sex, so there is nothing unnatural.

There was once a joke: A man asked a strong-willed woman resentfully, why are you so unlike a woman? The woman replied coldly, because you are so different from a man. In front of a powerful woman like Huai Caoshi, it is probably difficult for most men to find a clear sense of gender.

"I can answer you the question you mentioned last time." Huai Caoshi looked into his eyes and said calmly: "Your Majesty is not dead."

The intelligence channels on the direction of Tianjing Star were blocked, and the people on Liban Star had no idea what was going on there. She was in the sea of ​​mulberry trees and had no information to confirm. However, it was this suffocating silence that allowed her to confirm the safety of the emperor. If the rebels really succeeded in assassinating the Lord of the Zuotian Star Domain, how could it be so quiet?

"This should be good news for you." Xu Le said after a pause: "But it won't help us much. I must warn you again that this Taomias mech will not last long."

"There is already a problem with the central connection of the multi-engine accommodation room. I am a mechanic, not a magician. Once this core component is destroyed, there is no way to replace it. The problem is that we do not have large-scale equipment for suspension dismantling. Even if there is...the entire Mulberry Sea area, there is no trace of any new wolf-tooth mecha."

He spread his hands and stared at her eyes and asked seriously: "How many days will your people have to escape in this damn mulberry sea before they can get there?"

Huai Caoshi was silent for a long time and did not answer this question positively, saying, "The longer the time, the better."

Xu Le narrowed his eyes and frowned and said, "Are you thinking about delaying it longer?"

Huacao Shi smiled slightly.

The imperial emperor was not dead, and the rebels could not fully control the situation. As long as the situation on Tianjing Star is stable, the powerful royal fleet could easily solve the problem on Liban Star like a blade breaking through a piece of paper, which would take time.

Huai Caoshi insisted on running away and fighting with extraordinary perseverance in this dangerous sea of ​​mulberry trees. Even though her subordinates were ready to pick her up three days ago, she still did not leave, just delaying time.

Only when she is alive and proves to the Governor's Office through battle will Governor Ke Baoning continue to persevere.

"So that's it." Hearing Huai Caoshi's calm explanation, Xu Le said: "If things really develop according to your ideas, that Governor Ke Baoning will definitely be killed by the crazy and desperate nobles."

"I think Governor Ke Baoning should have the awareness of dying for the empire." Huai Caoshi said coldly.

Xu Le shook his head, picked up a stone beside her and sat down, covered his lips with his palm, and began to cough silently and violently again.

...

The tragic battle in the mulberry tree sea came to an abrupt end on a sunny afternoon. The large rebel army, which was occupied by the double emotions of excitement and fear, finally successfully forced the ghost mecha to appear. Surrounded by countless heavy firepower weapons, the tattered peach miasma mecha stopped silently in a farm like a scared metal statue.

However, there was no one in the Taomias mecha.

The spies invaded the rebels at the cost of death successfully lured a small rift in the rebels' encirclement.

Huai Cao's poem, who received the latest information feedback, resolutely abandoned the sound of her shaking the universe, swept across the four fields, and rushed to a silk processing workshop in the southwest along this crack along a secret path in the sea of ​​mulberry trees.
