Chapter 1180 Give up (One More)
Revakri Base No. 273 artificial meteorite.
Federal Special Base and Conference Room.
I saw a heated debate among senior federal officials, and the most powerful one was a young man with sharp eyes and a strong aura.
He said very strongly: "If there is no hope, you must give up!"
Everyone present couldn't help but bow their heads.
"What is Kimanbu meaningless? There are our companions in that fortress, and everyone is very important to us."
At this moment, a calm voice retorted.
Everyone looked over one after another, and the one who refuted was none other than Augustus!
Since the last time the star gate opened and Spade returned to the Federation, Augustus has been assigned to the front line.
"Master Augustus, there is nothing wrong with what you said, and I am also very heartbroken to make this kind of decision. But you have to understand one thing, Liberty Fortress has been missing for more than two years. From the beginning of the disappearance, we have How many ships and manpower were sent to search, and the financial and material resources it spent could build another one. But the result? Still nothing, we tried everything, even entrusted the task to the city of the star ring, Isn't that enough?"
"Hmph, can our companions be measured by money?"
Augustus strongly objected.
"That's right, our companions can't be measured by money. But you also have to think about the search and rescue personnel. From the beginning of the search to the present, how many people have been killed or injured? Their lives are also their lives. I can't let this kind of situation happen." The tragedy keeps repeating itself."
Kimanbu stared straight at Augustus, without any sign of flinching.
Many non-commissioned officers and congressmen present did not dare to say anything.
Kimanbu is a representative of the new generation of rising hardliners. He does things vigorously and resolutely, and never procrastinates.
It was the once-veteran Vice President of the Council, Augustus, who dared to refute.
"Any act of abandoning a companion in despair is shameful. No matter how high the price is, you cannot give up. The search and rescue mission is not allowed to be suspended!"
Augustus was still unmoved, and must search and rescue to the end. He knew better than anyone else that the people in the fortress were all elites from the Federation, not to mention that Li Ruiqi was still on it.
Back then, Li Ruiqi commanded the Federation's first exploration ship, Hei Yao. No one knew better than him how talented he was.
"Augulas, you are right, but we also have to think about the federation. This search and rescue plan has cost the federation too much money. The federation has finally stepped into the great era, and it is just when it is about to rise. It is impossible to The project continues to invest money. Let me tell you the truth, just yesterday the Federal Government Parliament passed a decision to suspend the financial support for this search and rescue plan, and will revoke the missions hanging on the Star Ring City later.”
Kimanbu said directly to Augustus.
Augustus slammed the table and said in a deep voice, "Hmph, even if the council doesn't provide financial support, I will continue to search and rescue. I will solve the problem of funds and personnel myself."
"Master Augustus, I'm afraid this won't work."
Kimanbu rejected it without hesitation.
"It's not your turn to take care of what I want to do, right?"
Augustus was also a little angry. Although he knew that what Kimanbu said had some truth, he probably took it too far.
At this time, Kimanbu tapped the electronic bracelet on his hand a few times, opened an electronic authorization document, and said to Augustus.
"Augulas, the federal parliament has issued a special order to request you to set sail and leave Revacris and return to the federation immediately. The federal parliament has a new appointment for you. I hope you can follow the federal order and put the overall situation first. Have expectations for things that have no hope. You know better than anyone what is lost in the starry sky, basically there is no hope. And don't count on the city of Star Ring, no one will help us for no reason, this The world is so cruel."
After hearing Kimanbu's words, Augustus also fell silent.
At this moment, the companions beside Augustus became anxious and said to Augustus one after another.
"My lord, this."
"Hey~"
Augustus finally sighed helplessly, raised his hand to signal everyone not to speak, and said to Kimanbu, "I will follow the order."
Hearing what Augustus said, many non-commissioned officers present all showed expressions of despair.
But none of them complained, because everyone present knew very well that what Kimanbu said was not unreasonable.
The Federation has paid an extremely high price for searching Fort Liberty, and Augustus has done his best. If he hadn't been standing up, maybe the search and rescue plan would have died before today.
Suddenly the whole conference room fell into dead silence.
at dusk.
No. 273 Artificial Meteor Interstellar Airport.
A level 5 flagship Barracuda sits quietly there.
A non-commissioned officer is sending some belongings to the ship.
At the entrance, Kimanbu personally led many non-commissioned officers to see Augustus off.
Kimanbu held out his hand to Augustus, and they held each other.
"Master Augustus, your contribution to the Federation is obvious to all of us. This time you will definitely be reused by the Parliament and hold a more important position."
"I just did what I had to do."
Augustus replied indifferently.
"Master Augustus, you are being humble."
Just when Kimanbu was about to say goodbye to Augustus.
A subordinate suddenly ran over in a hurry. He was about to report something, but when he saw Augustus, he suddenly changed his words and said to Kimanbu: "My lord, there is a document that needs to be processed by you."
Kimanbu's expression moved slightly, and then he said to Augustus.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Augustus, I have something to do, let's deal with it first."
"Um."
Augustus didn't say much.
Immediately, Kimanbu and that subordinate walked out towards the distance.
Augustus looked at Kimanbu's back, showing a trace of doubt, and then he squinted at a blond beauty beside him.
The blond beauty left knowingly.
In the distance, Kimanbu looked at the subordinate in front of him and asked, "What is it?"
The subordinate in front of him excitedly reported to Kidman Bush.
"Master Kimanbu, just got the news that someone has taken over the mission we posted in the Star Ring City."
Kimanbu frowned, and then said: "How is it possible, who will take over our mission?"
Under normal circumstances, no one will take up the tasks assigned by the Federation, not to mention that this task is still very dangerous.
"Then, does that mean that the search and rescue can continue?"
The subordinate asked tentatively.
