“Military purchase? How do we have the money to buy warships from the Sherman Empire now?”
Edwan’s exaggerated expression was vividly displayed by the 3D projection.
“Ming, have you gone mad? At this critical juncture, we are implementing the royal bailout plan. Finances are incredibly tight, the treasury nearly depleted by public welfare. Father won’t allow me to use any more of the royal assets, and most of them abroad are real estate, difficult to liquidate in the short term!”
In the captain’s lounge of the Star Patrol Ship, Yang Ming placed his feet on the table, leaned back in his chair, and said earnestly, “If we have no money, we can seek a loan from the Sherman Empire.”
“That would add unnecessarily to our debts; their interest rates are terrifying.”
“No, Edwan, you must start planning for this now. The trip must commence in three days, staying in the Sherman Empire for at least half a month.”
Yang Ming’s tone was very firm.
Edwan frowned and said, “Is something happening? You look really serious… Ming, you need to be honest with me about these things. Our trust is based on complete openness.”
“The New Federation is about to launch a full-scale attack.”
“Full-scale attack? What does that mean?”
“Literally,” Yang Ming said calmly, “Targeted at overthrowing the monarchy of this nation, they’ve mobilized two strong and advanced full-capacity star fleets. Thousands of agents are merely the vanguard; they will deploy large special forces, including semi-mechanical, genetically modified special warriors, using the Fifth Administrative Star as a base. The primary target should be Ilando Star.”
It went silent on Edwan’s end.
Yang Ming said gravely, “Do you understand now why I suggest you go to Sherman? You’re not being a deserter; you need to get Sherman’s attention and seek timely assistance at the critical moment.”
“Can’t we request help in advance?”
“Unfortunately, no,” replied Yang Ming. “Only when the New Federation Fleet appears will the Sherman Empire’s fleet potentially mobilize. They have been running errands for our Wind side a few times, each time testing their patience to the limit. Their generals are tired of wars that seem never to happen.”
Edwan ran his hands through his hair, looking as if he were in a trance.
“Those damned New Federation Freedom Warriors!”
Edwan cursed through gritted teeth,
“They invade my country so recklessly, while I can only hide in my Sovereign Country! Can a powerful nation do whatever it wants?”
“I’m sorry,” Yang Ming gazed at Edwan, “but a powerful nation can indeed do whatever it wants. Edwan, I once heard a saying, ‘Within the galaxy, there is no balance.’ If you don’t want to be bullied, you must seize every opportunity to make yourself stronger.”
Edwan remained silent.
He leaned back in his chair, imitating Yang Ming, placed his long legs on the table, and rested his hands behind his head, trying to relax.
“I understand, Ming.”
Edwan said in a low voice,
“Don’t worry, I’ll arrange this matter. We can depart in two days; we need to first apply for a loan from the central bank of the Sovereign Country. They’ll definitely impose killer interest rates.”
“This needs to create a sensation, right?
“A hundred billion Empire Coin military purchase, the Wind royal family’s exclusive fleet, how does that sound?”
“Great,” Yang Ming smiled and asked, “Can you persuade your father?”
“I’ve figured out my father’s current temperament,” Edwan glanced around to ensure no one was there, then frowned and said, “He’s kind of childish, and I mean that seriously.”
Yang Ming: …
Quite an accurate assessment.
They discussed the details for a while, and Edwan hurriedly ended the video and began implementing this counter plan.
Edwan asked a question that Yang Ming didn’t know how to answer.
‘What will it take for the New Federation to stop?’
Yang Ming pondered carefully.
The New Federation’s subversive actions toward the Luofeng Empire were essentially a capital plunder, with the underlying theme of rivalry between the New Federation and the Sherman Empire.
‘Got to find a way to make Sherman and the New Federation truly clash.’
Ideas flashed one after another in Yang Ming’s mind.
The captain’s lounge was quiet, with officers and technicians occasionally passing by and chatting outside.
Ding-Ding!
A sheet popped up in front of Yang Ming. This was a list of federal agents captured by Lyu through various methods, from senior agents to temporary workers, comprehensively listed here.
Two-thirds of them, Lyu couldn’t confirm the detailed information, only knowing that this person probably existed.
The total counted…
Four thousand six hundred and sixty-two people.
And this was just the team responsible for intelligence, information, public opinion warfare, and technical warfare.
Below the table were a few more lines of notes.
Confirmed that the New Federation’s special forces have been deployed, several semi-mechanical squads exposed their tracks while moving within the New Federation, and photos were taken and posted online.
Yang Ming rubbed his temples and put the sheet aside.
He couldn’t be confused, needed to proceed according to his plan.
“Lyu, did you manage to seize General Joble’s assets?”
Lyu’s voice came on, “Got seventy-five percent, but some hidden assets haven’t been extracted.”

“Throw Joble in front of the Imperial Palace this afternoon,” Yang Ming said, “send a big gift to our Emperor, slip a warning letter on Joble.”
“Boss, how should the letter be written?”
“Just write… seven days to demise, Wind will fall,” Yang Ming huffed, “let Princess Dana play a role.”
“Okay, boss.”
In Lyu’s Thought Space.
She looked at Yang Ming’s deep face on the screen in front of her, pondered slightly, and silently… pressed the screenshot button.
