Chapter 20 Rational

On the way back to the city center, militiamen and soldiers surrounded Qin Mo, and when he walked to a church, the people who took refuge inside came out.

Most of them were wounded, with only two exceptions.

A middle-aged man wearing the rank of Legion Commander on his shoulders, and a female police officer wearing the Hive Capital's Ministry of Justice.

"The head of the Lawn Legion of the logistics force, and Riley, the intelligence officer of the Hive Capital's Legal Department." The officers who fought side by side with Qin Mo before stepped forward to introduce.

Qin Mo was not surprised that there was a legion commander here, after all, Lawn was a member of the Planetary Defense Force.

But how could Lena, an intelligence officer from the Ministry of Justice, appear here?Could it be that the legal department of Tailong Hive Capital is extremely dedicated, and can even manage the bottom nest?

"You are the marshal's guards?" Lawn raised his eyebrows and looked at the power armor on Qin Mo's body. "Why haven't I seen this model of power armor?"

"We are not the marshal's guards." Qin Mo shook his head.

"You came too late, soldier." Lawn frowned and complained, "My lord, we have been fighting here for nearly a week, why did you come?"

"My lord, if you hadn't popped out suddenly, I would have thought that the highest ranking officer here was the regiment commander!" Gray said in a strange way.

When everyone was fighting against the rebels just now, Lawn and Riley hid in the church, hiding with the wounded.

They were not discussing the battle plan or what, because they hadn't received a single order since just now, and everyone was fighting on their own.

Lawn frowned, but saw that the faces of the people present were not good, so he didn't dare to reprimand him. He just changed the subject: "Are there any higher-ranking officers alive?"

"It's gone, sir." Qin Mo shook his head indifferently.

Hearing this answer, Gray looked at Qin Mo, very surprised.

From the moment he saw Lawn, Qin Mo acted very naturally, as if he was ready to hand over his command.

To actually call Lawn the officer in the answer, this is really...

"Although you came a bit late, I still want to praise you. You have done a good job, soldier." Lawn patted Qin Mo's arm in satisfaction and praised him.

After seeing Qin Mo's submissive appearance, Lao En became more courageous: "From now on, you must obey my orders, understand?"

"Yes." Qin Mo nodded.

"Now take me to a safe place. The lady from the legal department and I need shelter." Lawn glanced at Riley beside him.

Laili smiled and nodded to Qin Mo.

"Okay." Qin Mo agreed again, then looked at Gray, motioning for him to call the unmanned transport plane over.

Gray had a lot to say, he even wanted to rush over to slap Qin Mo, and ask him if you know what you are doing, you are sending out the army you have managed to assemble!

But Gray finally held back, he chose to obey, and immediately called the unmanned transport plane.

...

night.

The 47 regiment is stationed.

"Sir!"

"Hello."

Klein signaled the soldiers on both sides of the corridor not to salute, and then went straight into the room where Qin Mo was.

Qin Mo, who was drawing a picture, heard the sound of the door opening and turned to look at Klein.

Klein raised his hand to signal Qin Mo not to speak, then walked up to him and asked eagerly, "Do you know what the person you brought back is doing?"

"What are you doing?" Qin Mo knew that Klein was talking about Lawn.

"He is yelling at my soldiers, ordering us to clear out the largest room and find him the best bed, or order one for him." Klein looked at Qin Mo with a smile, "What were you thinking when you brought them back?"

"This guy is so stupid? Ask your soldiers to order beds?" Qin Mo was amused.

"He is an aristocrat who went to the nest. None of these aristocrats are stupid. They can use conspiracy to kill you without knowing it. In their eyes, asking for a bed is a matter of course." Klein was extremely serious.

Klein would never question Qin Mo before, but this time is different, he really can't bear it.

Seeing Qin Mo's grinning face, Klein warned: "Do you know what will happen next? Your command authority will be taken away, your identity as a soldier will be revealed, and then the line of defense that you have painstakingly assembled after running around becomes someone else's, and you are still a soldier, even lower than my rank."

"Why?" Qin Mo asked.

Klein was taken aback by the question, not knowing how to answer.

"Why did my integrated line of defense become his?" Qin Mo continued to ask, "Can he unleash flames and lightning to kill a large group of enemies, can he create powerful weapons and equipment, or does he have a strategy that ordinary people can't match, and can hang up the commander of the rebel army?"

This series of questions made Klein think deeply.

After all, it is a time of war, and Qin Mo has accumulated prestige through the integration of the defense line. Now people in all positions on the entire defense line have either seen him fighting or heard of him.

And now almost all soldiers have a judgment in their hearts, that is, they have been betrayed by the higher-ups, and the attack plan is a conspiracy.

In this case, it would be useless for Lawn to conspire again, unless he could provide stronger military support than Qin Mo, or be able to bring everyone out of the nest.

After reaching the conclusion, Klein scratched the back of his head and asked with a frown, "But... But if you are not afraid that he will snatch your command and you cannot kill him, then why don't you keep him in that city? Why don't you bring him here?"

"I have a backup plan, I thought of it when I saw Lawn." Qin Mo glanced at the door of the room, saw that the door was closed by Klein when he came in, so he continued to talk with confidence.

"I have a backup plan."

"The plan is to start digging the collapsed passage from now on, and try to open up a road to the next nest as much as possible."

"Then we use Lawn, and all the people like Lawn we can find, to make a deal with the higher-ups and get a chance to be allowed to go back to the nest."

After hearing the whole plan, Klein's pupils suddenly dilated, and Qin Mo became strange to him.

"You want to run away? I can't believe you think so." Klein said.

"I don't want to run away, this is a backup plan. I have to rationally consider any outcome, good or bad." Qin Mo said seriously, "I will try to find the possibility of defeating the rebels at all costs, but if we really can't do it, I have to think of another way instead of sitting on the ground and waiting to die."

"You're very rational." Klein understood Qin Mo's thoughts, and nodded in agreement, "Should I arrest Lawen or something?"

"You can bring him by your side, and tell him what to say, such as where his family is. This will be useful when the passage is dug and we have to evacuate." Qin Mo said.

"Okay." Klein left immediately.

Qin Mo turned around and began to think.

Everything he and Klein said was bullshit.

If the attack plan was a conspiracy, then Lawn, who was involved in the conspiracy, would not be allowed to evacuate when he wanted to evacuate the Bottom Nest because of his noble status.

Qin Mo wanted to get rid of Lao En, but he couldn't execute a legion commander in front of others.

"I have to find a way..." Qin Mo muttered to himself.
