The group fell silent for a while.

Gu Che let out a long sigh. “We didn’t search for Your Highness’s whereabouts before. Major General Ding Hui and I planned to join forces with the Wild Lion Legion and lead a few teams to rescue His Majesty, His Highness, my father, and Lieutenant General Chu Lie, before the memorial. And make long-term plans and other plans after…”

“I didn’t expect that, before we set off, you would send news from Jiuwei Star. At first, when we first received the news, we didn’t dare hope, and came here with the mentality of giving it a try… I didn’t expect you to be fine. It’s great you’re fine.” He was filled with emotion.

As long as Moodys is still alive, no matter how chaotic the situation in Osphia is, it has not yet reached the point where it cannot be solved.

As long as Moodys is still alive…

Moodys frowned slightly. “How were you planning to deploy forces to rescue my father and the others before you knew I was still alive? Tell me about your plan.”

“Queen Catherine has went people to shut down all the space stations of Emperor Star, and set up an external defense network… so that the legions stationed outside Emperor Star cannot directly jump back to Emperor Star through military channels. Even if they go return, as long as a ship lands, Emperor Star will also receive news.” Gu Che explained. “Our arms have been almost exhausted after the Lyra battle and the Heart of the Rose battle. Before the Heart of the Rose, they blew up the arsenal of Volstar… After your accident, the military has never provided us with arms, and we have almost run out of ammunition and food.”

“Not only does Emperor Star have sufficient ammunition, but also three major legions plus half of the Rising Sun Legion are stationed there. Our chances with direct confrontation is not high.” Gu Che explained the plan. “So, Major General Ding Hui and I planned to keep the Dawn and Glory Legions in Lyra, and let the Wild Lion Legion stay in place. We will select a team of elite troops to sneak into the capital to rescue people, and then let them communicate with outside, and jump back to Lyra again.

Moodys pondered for a while, and then asked: “So, when were you planning to carry out this mission?”

“The day of your memorial service.” Ding Hui and Gu Che said in unison.

The two looked at each other, and Gu Che spoke again: “On the day Queen Catherine holds a memorial service for you, everyone’s attention will definitely be on the scene of the memorial service. All important people will be at the scene to mourn you. At that time, everyone’s defense will be the most lax, and it is a good time for us to rescue His Majesty and General Chu Lie.”

“Have you confirmed where they are locked up?” Moodys asked.

Gu Che replied: “You can rest assured. I grew up in Emperor Star, and I still have some basic connections present. Although His Majesty and the General are detained separately, we can still determine their respective positions.”

“The plan is well arranged.” After a while, Moodys said such a sentence.

Gu Che frowned. “What does Your Highness mean?”

“We will follow your original plan. I will also return to Emperor Star with you.” Moodys said. “It’s just that the Glory, Dawn, and Wild Lion Legions won’t stay where they are. Let’s quietly take down Otto star near Emperor Star, and station warships of all three legions there… I will sneak back to the capital together with the elite troops you have selected to rescue people and directly lead the three major legions to attack Emperor Star…”

Since Emperor Star is already in chaos, he can only do this.

Legions with betrayal in their hearts should not stay.

Gu Che was not surprised that Moodys would make such a decision. “But, we no longer have arms, and the arms of the Wild Lion Legion alone are not enough for our three legions… Besides, Emperor Star has sufficient ammunition and arms. I’m afraid attacking won’t be easy.”

The most feared thing in the army is not having insufficient ammunition when marching outside.

They even lack weapons; how can they fight others?

Moodys frowned, ready to say something.

Feng Bai was the first to speak. “Do you want arms? I have it here. How much is needed?”

As the biggest arms dealer in the universe, the most important resource in his hand is arms.

“Mr. Feng…” Gu Che was a little surprised. He didn’t expect that this arms dealer, who was rumored to hate the royal family of Osphia, would be so straightforward and righteous that he would lend them unlimited arms.

They originally intended to open their mouths and borrow a batch of arms from the Old Yellow Fox at a high price… After the Emperor Star was recaptured, they would return the money to him.

Unexpectedly, before he even opened his mouth, Feng Bai offered it – he didn’t even mention any exchange.

He has no idea what kind of adventure happened on Jiuwei Star to make this arms dealer who hated the royal family of Osphia become so friendly towards them, and even take the initiative to lend a helping hand.

“Thank you, great-grandfather.” After solving the big problem of arms, Moodys immediately let out a long sigh of relief, and thanked the Old Yellow Fox with great respect under Gu Che’s surprised eyes.

As soon as the ‘great-grandfather’ came out, everyone present was surprised.

Feng Bai said angrily, “I can’t bear this great-grandfather, Your Royal Highness. But my daughter and son-in-law’s justice still requires me to go to Emperor Star in person to find your good father. Who asked him to sit peacefully and easily, and leave guilt for future generations.”

He didn’t need such an ugly person calling him great-grandfather.

“Then I’ll call you great-grandfather and thank you for His Royal Highness.” Zhuo Yang immediately stepped forward and took his hand. He knew that his great-grandfather was stubborn but soft-hearted.

Feng Bai was grabbed by his own great-grandson, and his heart softened, no longer bothering to argue with Moodys who was unpleasant to his eyes.

Zhuo Yang looked at the surprised eyes of several people, and then introduced him to Gu Che and the rest. “This is my great-grandfather who I’ve been separated from for many years. We did a DNA test a few days ago and just met each other.”

Suddenly, they understood why the Old Yellow Fox was willing to inform them of the whereabouts of the crown prince, and was willing to lend them arms.

Unexpectedly, the crown princess still has such a life experience…

“In this way, we don’t have to worry about arms and ammunition.” Ding Hui was very familiar with him. After knowing that the Old Yellow Fox was on the same side, he unceremoniously regarded the Old Yellow Fox’s equipment as his own arsenal.

Seeing that he had something to say, Moodys immediately asked, “What opinion does Major General Ding Hui have?”

“We have more than enough to deal with Emperor Star, and we can be sure, as long as we save people, there will be no problem. It’s just that the Black Eagle Legion and Houyi Legion, none of us know what their plans are… If they secretly form a line with Emperor Star and attack from behind us, it will be bad.” This is worth worrying about.

In the end, the attitudes of Houyi and Black Eagle are too ambiguous they don’t know what to do.

Even if the Vulture Legion is gone, they can barely count as three legions now, and they may have to deal with the Emperor Star politicians and the other six major legions.

“If you are worried about the lack of manpower, the Xue Family Army can find several planets of forces near Jiuwei Star. As long as you don’t dislike them as interstellar pirates now. In worst case, if you can see eye to eye with my people, you can also take them as you like…” Although Feng Bai is very old, he also knows that it is too difficult for them to attack Emperor Star that had six legions.

Ding Hui was shocked all of a sudden. “Xue Family Army? Can you let Xue Family Army obey you and let you dispatch it? They are also willing to help the crown prince fight Emperor Star?”

Although Xue Family Army is now the largest star thief organization in the interstellar— it was originally a legion under the serious Marshal Xue Zhanting.

It was raised as a serious army.

If they help, it means that there is another legion in hand.

It’s just that, can Feng Bai really order the Xue family’s army?

Although they also knew that all their arms came from Old Yellow Fox, and they would help if the Old. Yellow Fox asked for help with anything.

But this time, they are sending troops to fight to save the emperor who killed Marshal Xue and attacked them—

Even if the Old. Yellow Fox opens his mouth, will Xue Family Army really agree?

Ding Hui and Gu Che looked at each other, their eyes filled with concerns.

Seeing their distrusting attitudes, Feng Bai immediately said with anger: “My daughter’s name is Feng Chu.”

Gu Che: “…”

Ding Hui: “…”

Everyone present was silent. They were all born too late, and didn’t know who Feng Chu was. Even if his daughter is Feng Chu, why does he think he can the Xue Family Army?

Could it be that Feng Chu is currently a high-level figure in the Xue Family Army star thief organization?

“Her husband is Xue Zhanting.” Seeing that they were all silent, Feng Bai announced the name of his son-in-law who was more famous than his daughter.

This time, everyone present was finally shocked, and no longer doubted that he could order the Xue Family Army.

The other members of the Dawn and Glory Legions even felt that even God was helping the crown prince. When he was almost at the end, he was actually sent such a great-grandfather-in-law…

With ammunition in hands, they are simply waiting to go to war.

Although it would still be 4 against 6 with the added Xue Family Army, as people who have been fighting year around, they have more than enough weapons and ammunition to win those embroidered pillows and wine bags.

The morale of the Dawn Legion and the Glory Legion immediately became high.

Feng Bai is one of my favorite characters. Insulting Moodys’ face (more than once) and his random outbursts.
