"Is this morning's battle report sorted out?" Qin Hai's footsteps were hurried. Illya hurriedly looked up and pulled out a copy of the mess on the table, "Here!" ”

Qin Hai took it, and walked towards the command room without stopping for a moment, and met Mobi in the corridor, "Qin Hai, Zhao Yi was looking for you just now!" ”

Qin Hai nodded, and the two passed by quickly. The sound of dull footsteps sounded in the corridor at a fast pace, the sensor door opened automatically, and Qin Hai plunged into the busy and tense command room.

Rhine turned around in front of the communication desk and casually handed over an electronic message, "The latest battle damage report. ”

Qin Hai handed over the copy in his hand, and the two of them lowered their heads at the same time to read it, and their brows couldn't help frowning. Turning his head to look at the other side of the room, Qin Hai walked over and propped himself on the back of Zhang Chaosheng's chair with one hand, "How is it?" ”

"Tangchuan has restored all communications with the outside world, and I am building a communication network directly to the front line." Zhang Chaosheng said, the movements in his hands did not stop, "This morning, the communication of the space fortress was interrupted for a while, and the opponent's attack was very strong. Helan meant to build this place into the general headquarters of the Musore theater of operations. ”

Qin Hai nodded, "There is no safer place than here now." ”

"The Ninth Army has already made a move, and there is no reason to change people again." Helan's grim voice sounded beside him. Qin Hai turned his head to look, and saw Helan with his hands propped up on the table, looking at the communication light screen opposite with a solemn expression, "In fact, if it weren't for the Ninth Legion here, Tandin would not have been able to continue to launch such a big attack. We had only transferred two regiments of the 7th Division, and the other side obviously wanted to swallow us in one gulp. ”

"But it's impossible for the Ninth Legion to transfer more people over, and the Southeast Star Domain is our main battlefield all along." On the opposite side of the light screen, a cadre of generals was sitting in danger.

"So, that's all there is to it." Helan's eyes were sharp, "I just need you to deploy some more people from the border army." ”

Everyone discussed, and Qian Tong said: "Our original plan was to transfer you and the Sufeng team back from Mussol. ”

"But IMHO, this plan is not very viable." Helan said bluntly, "Instead of being beaten passively, it is better to take the initiative to attack." ”

Saint Suri was full of busyness, and Tang Chuan, who was sitting on the twelfth floor, was not idle. His body has improved a lot after these days, and he can at least stand up and walk around. It's just that Saint-Suri's renewal is still the last point, so the catheters are still stuck in him, like countless vines enveloping him.

But this does not mean that he is tied hand and foot, he has been committed to developing his own new functions in the past few days, such as the communication side is what he cooperated with Zhang Chaosheng to do, if you want to fight an information war, Tang Chuan can guarantee an absolute victory.

Seeing the world through the eyes of a human being and seeing the world through the eyes of an artificial intelligence are two very different experiences. Tang Chuan was excited about this, and he found that many of the problems that had plagued him before could be solved, especially when it came to mecha manufacturing. It was as if he was standing on the shoulders of a giant, looking out at the world of colors.

He immersed himself in that magnificent world, day and night, forgetting to sleep and eat.

Helan came over after the meeting and saw that Tang Chuan still maintained the movements he had made when he left, wearing loose white clothes and sitting cross-legged on the ground. The diamond-shaped instrument above his head shimmered constantly, his eyes closed, and his drooping wrists were visibly scarred. His face was still sickly pale, and his handsome eyebrows were stained with a hint of weak beauty.

Helan knelt down on one knee in front of him, reached out and touched his cheek, and called softly, "Tang Chuan? ”

Tang Chuan didn't open his eyes, he was still building new design drawings in his mind, but the corners of his mouth were smiling, and he reached out and put his hand on the back of Helan's hand, "What's wrong?" ”

"I" Helan had just spoken, and suddenly there was a sharp knock at the door.

Rhine's face was grim, and Joey, who was as elegant and calm as ever, was behind him.

Joey glanced at them and spread his hands, "Although I know that it is not appropriate to interrupt your affection, I still think I should tell you this news as soon as possible - Dean has a new order, asking Major General to take you to the front line with Su Feng's team." Tang Chuan stayed alone in Saint-Suri. ”

Hearing this, Tang Chuan suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes were fierce and unmatched by his weak appearance. Joey approached, "You can't change any facts from me staring at me like this, now that the Kirin and you have become one, for Dean, apart from you, the Sufeng team is of no use." And Helan is the object he hopes to eradicate, he has made up his mind, you have to go, you have to go, if you don't go, you have to go. ”

The feeling of being grabbed by someone was really uncomfortable, Tang Chuan only felt that there was nowhere to vent his anger, "His ambition is inevitably exposed too quickly." ”

Helan had already predicted, "The military department is pressing, His Majesty is not doing anything, and Dean can only strive to achieve his goal as much as possible in the shortest possible time." This is not unexpected, but I can't take the entire Sufeng team with me. ”

"I'm afraid you can't help it." Joey muttered.

Twilight, the monthly meeting is underway.

"Your Majesty, the People's Court has been adjourned for nearly a month and a half, and recently our Council has received inquiries from all sides. As for the outcome of the revisit to Saint-Suri, I feel that we should hurry. An old official with a gray beard said.

Someone from the military headquarters immediately replied, "It's not that we don't hurry, Your Majesty." Relevant evidence has been transmitted back to Huajing, Major General Helan did find traces of mercenaries in Saint-Suli, and now that the war in Mussol has broken out again, and Tang Chuan, the leader of Sufeng's team, has also been injured, I think that many things should not be rushed. ”

In fact, the vast majority of people in the military department did not know the real situation of Saint-Suri, especially about Tangchuan. However, the biggest difference between the military department and the parliament is its centripetal force and cohesion, and He Jingshan's prestige in the army is enough to make most people trust him unconditionally.

He Jingshan learned the ins and outs of the whole matter from his son, and for the safety of Tang Chuan, he could only temporarily check and balance with Dean.

Councillor Pompey continued: "The court of the whole people can be convened at any time, and war is indeed more important. Your Majesty, I think that since Major General Helan and Su Feng's team are there, as an imperial soldier, they should do their best to resolve the dispute. Moreover, as far as I know, Major General Helan was on the front line at the beginning, but then Tang Chuan had an accident, and he went to Saint-Suri, I can understand that he was eager to save people, and Saint-Suri is indeed one of his tasks, but which is more important, I think"

"Councilor Pompey, I don't think there's anything wrong with Major General Helan's behavior." A general interrupted him coldly, "At that time, Major General Helan had already sent Tanding back, and reinforcements from the Ninth Army had arrived, and Tang Chuan's accident was before that. He made the right choice and coped with it very well, please don't feel free to slander the Imperial soldiers who were born and died on the front line, I would consider it an insult to us! ”

"General Ma is serious, I don't mean to blame Major General Helan, I just said, now, is it time for Major General Helan to go back to the front line?" Pompey pressed step by step, "We can be sympathetic to the duties of the military department, and the matter of the national court can be put aside, I think it is more important to protect the homeland security of the empire, don't you say?" ”

"yes." Qian Tongpi didn't smile, "It's rare that you understand the righteousness so well, do you want to explain to us now what happened to Saint Suri back then?" It's obviously a mission you issued, where did the mercenaries come out, and they came out of the yellow sand? Well? ”

Qian Tong has always been ruthless in his words, saying that he will be on the bar with you, and he will turn his face when he says that he will turn his face. Pompeii was bitten by him, and the corners of his mouth twitched, and Qian Tong didn't stop pouring beans into a bamboo tube for a second, and he was still saying: "I see that Councilor Pompeii, you have been very idle recently, and you have the leisure to worry about us, have you settled the matter at hand?" I remember that the Shuangleng Building still receives many protest letters every day, have you read them all? If you are so eloquent, why don't you tell them? ”

Fuck slut. Pompey's anger skyrocketed, "Admiral Qian, I'm not here to quarrel with you. ”

"Do you hear that I want to quarrel with you?" Money spreads hands.

Pompey was furious, and then Garcy finally spoke, "Okay, don't fight." ”

As he spoke, he looked at He Jingshan, "How is Tang Chuan injured?" After all, that place in Saint-Suri is remote, so it is better to take it back to Huajing, and it is easy to recuperate. ”

"Your Majesty has a heart," He Jingshan replied, "Young man, it's okay to be hurt a little. When I was young, I was injured a lot, but I also accumulated some experience. ”

"Yes, I think that Admiral He was born and died on the battlefield back then, and he was also scarred. However, young people still have a long way to go, and the body is still very important. Major General Helan took Su Feng's team to the front line, Tang Chuan didn't let him go, stayed in Shengsuli, where it was safe, and there was no need to travel long distances back to Huajing. What does Admiral He think? ”

Dean said, looking at He Jingshan with a smile on his face. He Jingshan is as calm as a mountain, looking back calmly, like the calm before the storm.

"You were planning to go to the front from the beginning, didn't you?" In the tower, Tang Chuan looked at Helan.

"Yes." Helan nodded.

Tang Chuan took a deep breath, "Okay, you go." ”

Helan is right, instead of being beaten passively, it is better to take the initiative to attack. It is the duty of a soldier to go to the front line, and there is no difference between being forced or not. But

Tang Chuan stared at him, "Dean's hole cards have not been fully revealed, and the front line is the most dangerous place." Although I have to stay here, Saint-Suri is safe, no one can hurt me here, so I don't need anyone to protect me, you take them all. ”

Helan was silent, obviously disagreeing with this decision. There is no absolute guarantee in this world, Tang Chuan was kidnapped by Dean once, and he had already tasted enough remorse, and he definitely didn't want to try it a second time.

The two were at a stalemate, with Joey and Rhein standing behind them. As soon as Joey wanted to speak, Rhein glared at him fiercely, and he had to spread his hands and shut up.

Tang Chuan's face seemed to be a little whiter, but his eyes were resolute, "Helan, I'm a soldier, not a storage that should be protected, do you understand?" ”

Helan was stunned, and a little complicated look appeared in her deep eyes. All kinds of distress was hidden in his heart, and in the end, all that was revealed was a hug and a sentence, "I understand." ”

Rhein winked at Joey, and the two exited the house. Joey looked at his tall back, and finally spoke to him for the first time, "Are you sure you want to go?" ”

Rhine did not look back, "If we don't go, who will?" ”

His footsteps did not stop, and the resolute back went farther and farther, and Joey suddenly had a real feeling at this time, that the little follower who had been chasing behind him had already embarked on his own path.

However, he suddenly felt an impulse and regret in his heart, he quickly chased after him, grabbed Rhine's hand, and said sternly, "Don't go." ”

Only then did Rhine stop and turn around, "What identity do you use to tell me this?" ”

Joey himself was surprised by this sudden move, paused, and said: "You won't not know what kind of person Dean is, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, he has been planning for so long, no one knows what else he has behind, and even he may have colluded with Tandin. Stay in Saint-Suri, you stay and take care of Tang Chuan. ”

However, Rhine's tone was indifferent, "Since you played this game, you should have considered all the consequences of him, shouldn't you?" Isn't that part of your plan? It's just me, whether it's life or death, so why bother with you. ”

"You"

Rhein broke away from his hand and turned around, his long eyelashes casting a shadow that obscured the true emotion in his eyes, "Don't look down on me, Joey. I came to Huajing to attend a military academy despite the opposition of others, and even abandoned my family's property for this reason, and it was indeed for you partly because of you. But that's only part of it, and it's part of the past. ”

With that, Rhine strode away and never looked back.

Joey stood on the spiraling staircase and watched his back, silent as a rock. The light shone in through the window, elongating his figure, and after a long time, he suddenly lost his smile, his eyelashes fluttering slightly, and he regained his usual calmness.

It's just that those eyes are as deep as the sea.

The young man who has faded away is about to set off again.

The orders of the military headquarters were given quickly, and everyone prepared quickly, and the next morning, everyone was assembled in a line outside the tower.

It had just dawned, and it was still a foggy pale cyan.

Everyone put on their combat uniforms, packed their bags, and waited quietly for the order to go. After a while, Helan strode out of the tower, his eyes scanning everyone, "Rhine." ”

Rhine stepped out, stood still, turned around, put his hands behind his back, "Turn back!" Let's go! ”

Turning in unison, the team pulled out and made sonorous footsteps.

At the same time, with a ding, the progress bar, which had been stuck at ninety-nine percent, finally came to the end, and all the catheters automatically contracted, returning freedom to Tang Chuan. Tang Chuan hurriedly stood up, rushed out, heard footsteps outside, and looked downstairs again - it was too late.

He turned and rushed to the top floor.

"Helan!"

After a while, Helan heard a familiar voice behind him, causing the whole team to stop.

Everyone turned around and saw Tang Chuan standing on the top floor in the lighthouse-like place. That's not a hologram, it's a real person. Everyone couldn't help but be a little excited, and before leaving, they could see Tang Chuan coming out of the twelfth floor, and everyone was very happy.

But now it was on the march, and everyone stood straight, and no one dared to move.

Then, they saw Helan standing at the front, and suddenly raised his hand and saluted Tang Chuan Yaoyao.

The young major general's back was like a mountain, and in the morning light, he saluted his lover and comrades-in-arms. The atmosphere suddenly became solemn, and everyone looked at each other as if they had seen the same thing in each other's eyes, and then raised their hands in unison.

"Salute!"

At this time, the morning fog dissipated, the sun rose from the distant horizon, and the figures of the soldiers cast neat shadows on the ground, one by one, with their heads held high and heroic.

No one spoke, as if they didn't need to speak.

A thousand words are not as stirring as this one action.

The oncoming wind carried the slight coolness of the morning, Tang Chuan looked at this scene in a daze, and his eyes suddenly flashed with long-lost sourness. His fingertips were trembling, and his weak body seemed to be unable to resist a gust of wind, but the iron bones were still there.

He raised his hand and paid his highest respect to his comrades-in-arms.

Eyes met in mid-air, Helan lowered her hand and nodded lightly to him.

My love for you is like a sea, but I don't need to say it, you know it.

I also pay you the supreme respect, respect the person I love the most, and the years will not change.

Helan turned around, "Let's go." ”

The team set off again, stepping on the avenue paved with morning light, and moving forward.

However, Tang Chuan stood on the top floor of the tower, and the tear ducts like a dry riverbed suddenly flowed again, and tears slipped down his eyes. He stretched out his hand to wipe it off, still a little stunned.

Then, clench your fists.

Unwillingly, he was originally one of them, and he was in his prime. He will shed his blood and sweat on the battlefield and die without regrets, instead of just standing here and watching.

Protected, left behind, even coerced but powerless to resist.

Helan understood him, so he used a military salute as a farewell. Frank and generous.

But the tears couldn't be stopped, Tang Chuan squatted down, very glad that he was not seen by them. The unicorn appeared beside him, and also squatted down silently holding his knees, his big eyes staring at him from time to time, full of eagerness, but he could only accompany him silently.

I opened my mouth several times, but I still couldn't speak.

He felt a little sad and felt useless.

However, after a while, Tang Chuan, who was crying profusely, suddenly raised his head again, choked up and asked him, "Am I handsome?" ”

Qilin looked at the big flower face and was stunned for a long time before nodding.

Tang Chuan cried and hiccuped, "Forgive me, can you help me go to the staircase to see if there is anyone?" If I'm seen like this, I might as well jump off the building and cry and can't stop crying? ”

Kirin: ""
