The fourth Ray Island Strategic Meeting was held on the morning of the 19th to discuss how to curb the pessimism of the soldiers.

"That's a problem...... But...... Looking at a thing from multiple perspectives..... At the very least, it proved that our operation was worthwhile...... Although the current situation does not allow for optimism...... But at least what we have done and what we have worked so far is not meaningless...... Ray Island will be the key to opening up all doubts, and a new era will be unfolded by us. ”

Bavin's tone was unusually firm, and his cold gaze swept over the strategic command room, but fortunately what he feared most did not happen.

"It's gratifying to see that all of you here are united. Truth be told, the pessimism of the soldiers is a normal reaction, it is human nature, when faced with an unfamiliar environment, their own lives are threatened...... But they are all well-trained soldiers in the Alliance, and they are the best, if not theirs, for Operation Thunder Island...... It's going to be worse......"

Bavin crossed his hands and dragged his head as if he were holding something heavy.

"In war, the pessimism of soldiers can be devastating. If you are not careful, it is not impossible that you will be wiped out like the naval battle of Ray Island a hundred years ago......"

"Your Excellency, what should we do to dispel the fear in the hearts of the soldiers......?

Zhu Daofu, commander of the Fourth Corps of Shuguo, interrupted.

Although this seems a little out of order, since the war has begun, etiquette is naturally not so important.

"Great question..... I'm sure you're well aware of what has changed in your subordinates, from arrogance about the ease of victory, to loneliness when you leave your homeland, and now you are questioning your illusions before stepping into battle...... So what's next...... What happened next? When they actually came to Thunder Island, but when they brought weapons to attack Thunder Island, when they saw their comrades around them being struck by lightning, what kind of mood would they have felt at that time?"

Bavin spoke in a language as calm as a lake, speaking uncalm. Like a breeze blowing the waves on the sea, a huge tsunami was eventually formed.

He kept observing the expressions of everyone in the command room, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Luckily...... Fortunately...... All of you here are true warriors, and I am 80% sure that you are brave warriors. ”

The moment he stood up and straightened his back, his fist-clenched right hand had slammed into his left chest, where his heart was beating.

"Here, on behalf of your soldiers, I salute you. ”

"On behalf of the Alliance, I salute you. ”

"On behalf of the Terrans, I salute you. ”

The words fell, and Ba Wen, who was brow-browed, sat down under the gaze of everyone.

Whether it is the most powerful inheritor of the Alliance, or the general of the Tree Country who is above 10,000 people under one person, or those lucky people who became the captain of the alliance at a young age.

At this moment, the contest between countries, the discrimination between ethnic groups, and the suspicion between people, everything disappeared.

This is the second time General Wind Chime has seen such a person-

A guy who can really bring the hope of victory to humanity -

Gu Monroe can't do it, Hua Ze can't do it, Autumn Wind Jianhao can't do it, the king can't do it, and the cabinet chairman can't do it.

You can't even do it yourself.

- Is this what Bawen really looks like?

A person who is a hundred times stronger than the belief in his heart, what he does is not for the dragon country, not for the alliance, but for the human beings who are afraid of not going out to see the outside world.

Wind Chime said in a deep voice, in a tone similar to what Ba Wen had just spoken.

"—I'm sorry, General Bavin, I beg your pardon for the offense. ”

She stood up slowly, her long pink hair draped over her shoulders as the sun set, and she looked at Ba Wen, who was sitting opposite, with mixed emotions in her deep eyes.

Guilt, respect, trust.

With indescribable emotion, the wind chime said in the voice of a warrior.

"From this moment on, 50,000 soldiers from the top and bottom of the tree country are at your disposal, the honor of the tree country will never be extinguished, and the justice of the alliance will last forever——"

I don't know if it's an imitation or the original habit, the wind chime actually made the same action as Bawen. The moment he straightened his spine, he struck his right hand with a fist on his left chest, where his heart was beating.

Without too much eye contact, Zhang Lingzhi, the commander of the First Legion of the Tree Country, Manstein, the commander of the Second Legion, Zax, the commander of the Third Legion, Zhu Daofu, the commander of the Fourth Legion, and Mo Desan, the commander of the Fifth Legion, stood up almost at the same moment and made the same movements as their own commanders.

"The First Legion of the Tree Country Thunder Island Operation is at your disposal, the honor of the Tree Country will never be extinguished, the justice of the alliance will last forever, long live the Terrans-"

"The Second Legion of Operation Thunder Island in the Tree Country is at your disposal, the honor of the Tree Country will never be extinguished, the justice of the alliance will last forever, long live the Terrans——"

"The Third Legion of the Tree Country Thunder Island Operation is at your disposal, the honor of the Tree Country will never be extinguished, the justice of the alliance will last forever, long live the Terrans-"

"The Fourth Legion of the Tree Country Thunder Island Operation is at your disposal, the honor of the Tree Country will never be extinguished, the justice of the alliance will last forever, long live the Terrans——"

"The Fifth Legion of the Tree Country Thunder Island Operation is at your disposal, the honor of the Tree Country will never be extinguished, the justice of the alliance will last forever, long live the Terrans——"

This is followed by the wood forest and the flower forest guarding the wind chimes on both sides.

They did not take an oath but stood after the crowd. Mu Linsen slapped his left chest through the thick armor, and the sound of the silver armor in his right hand and the armor on his chest colliding was very crisp, like a flame igniting something indescribable in everyone's hearts.

The moment the waves crashed against the hull of the Light, a strong wind hit like it had never been seen before. All the soldiers sighed as they looked at the storm that loomed in the direction of Ray Island in the distance. In the command room, more than a dozen high-ranking officers of the Dragon Kingdom stood up one after another, tearing apart the fear in their hearts with their shouts, and venting the anger in their hearts with roars.

"The First Army of Operation Thunder Island in the Dragon Country is on standby at any time, long live Your Majesty Mossfield, the glory will last forever, long live the Terrans-"

"The Second Army of Operation Thunder Island in the Dragon Country is on standby at any time, long live Your Majesty Mossfield, the glory will last forever, long live the Terrans-"

"The Third Army of Operation Thunder Island in the Dragon Country is on standby at any time, long live Your Majesty Mosfield, glory forever, long live the Terrans-"

"The Fourth Army of Operation Thunder Island in the Dragon Country is on standby at any time, long live Your Majesty Mossfield, glory forever, long live the Terrans-"

"Operation Thunder Island of the Dragon Country, the Glory-class battleship Hagermore is on standby, long live Your Majesty Mossfield, glory forever, long live the Terrans-"

"Operation Thunder Island of the Dragon Country, the star-class battleship Zinatina, is on standby, long live Your Majesty Mossfield, glory forever, long live the Terrans-"

.......

"Operation Thunder Island in the Dragon Country, the star-class battleship Wave Wheel is on standby at any time, long live Your Majesty Mossfield, glory forever, long live the human race-"

The strategic command room, which had just fallen into the freezing point, was suddenly ignited by the blood that I don't know how to describe, and the legendary mage stood up respectfully, and Morton and Rhodes, who were over sixty years old, forcibly suppressed the shock in their hearts. But his eyes inadvertently revealed his admiration for Bawen.

"The Blue Robed Mage of the Sacred Ningguo Calagon is willing to cooperate with Your Excellency, long live the Holy Spring, long live the Ning Kingdom. ”

"Morton, the green-robed mage of the Sacred Ningguo Calagon is willing to cooperate with Your Excellency, long live the Holy Spring, long live the Ning Kingdom. ”

Under the light of the legendary Philosopher's Stone, the dark night in my heart seemed to come to an end.

Howell, who was sitting on the side, also got up, and his rough face was full of calm. If there was good wine here, people like him would drink it all in one gulp, even if they would get drunk and not be able to get out of bed for three days.

"The special operations team of the Sacred Beast Country's Thunder Island operation is far away from General Bawen's dispatch. ”

The last to stand up were Qiu Feng Jianhao and Gu Monroe, who did not take an oath and did not express anything.

Bawen smiled, an expression that no one had ever seen on the face of a twenty-eight-year-old young general. Only in this moment did he seem to have human emotions.

"Thank you...... There you ...... That's enough."

Taking a deep breath, Bawen stood up, his robe emblazoned with the Alliance logo and the dragon kingdom's royal family pattern fluttering through the command room as if it had been infused with the wind. He unfastened his cloak and let the elaborate token, symbolizing the supreme command of the Thunder Island operation, go with the wind.

“...... Right now...... I don't need that anymore because I have the bravest generals in this league. Tomorrow is unknown for everyone...... Fear or happiness...... Everyone, everyone, including myself...... You can choose to wake up at home tomorrow, wake up next to your loved ones, and then sit in front of the yard, lie on the lawn, and enjoy the warmest sunshine of the day...... Perhaps, we don't need to do anything to know that we have nothing to lose...... Those must be beautiful days...... Who hasn't made a promise....... Before I set out, I promised my friend that I would live to go back and read his poems....... Although we both know that this operation is likely to be gone forever....... But we still promised it. ”

"—yes, that's how cruel the world is...... So ruthless...... However, as General Feng Chime said yesterday, are we going to live in fear and confusion about the unknown all the time? Is there no one who can unveil the truth of the world?........... I don't believe it....... When I see all of you....... When I see the hope for the future in your eyes, and the desire to tear apart your fears....... It's possible to ...... together."

"As many people say...... I'm not for good generals...... There is no long-term vision, no perfect military thinking, and no strong combat effectiveness....... However, I know what I need, I know what humanity needs, what do we do when creatures like Thundertooth that make everyone feared appear, when humans stop at Thunder Island and abandon the farther oceans, when humans are intriguing and fighting each other to tear apart this alliance that is not easy to build and choose to cooperate and explore the unknown......."

The voice stopped abruptly, there was no intonation, no superfluous movements, and even the facial expressions followed the movements of the mouth.

Bavin doesn't seem to be good at oratory. It was also one of the few times he had it.

All of the people present, at least more than half, were able to bring more lively speeches.

However, only Bavin can touch the heartstrings.

In his eyes, there is no regrets, and it is unforgettable heaviness.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this battle is about the future of humanity, and it is a mission on your shoulders, the mission of humanity—"

As the words fell, so did Bavin's speech.

"You may be seated. ”

Those were the last words he spoke, and he collapsed in his chair.

However, no one sat down, their eyes still fixed on Bavin.

He didn't run away, but told everyone what they had to do with a look that was more pure and deep than the Silver Mirror Lake.

A look that should have been misinterpreted is more effective than a thousand words. The senior generals from different places got the answers they wanted from Bavin's eyes.

The man who understood left the room, and before he could see the eyes of Bavin, he still stood there and stared at the strange man.
