"Stay in the Red Giant, follow the commander's orders, and continue to complete the mission of the Red Giant's outer space to strike meteorites!"

Hao Zhigang took a breath and finished saying this sentence in clear and loud words, and immediately sat on the chair, as if he had done something hurtful, his face was flushed with shame, his head was lowered, and he bent down, not daring to look at his colleagues sitting at the same conference table, for fear of seeing the look of contempt on his faces. 《7∞x.netbsp; The other officers in the audience were not very surprised, Hao Zhigang was the captain of this starship, among the people, the one with the highest position, if he took refuge in the commander, the reward in the future should be the greatest, a fleet commander, an imperial marshal, maybe in front of his eyes.

"Commander, I have also decided to stay on the Meteorite Scavenger No. 1 starship and continue to complete the meteorite strike mission!"

Deputy Captain Bi Jiangong also stood up and said his decision more calmly...... With Hao Zhigang, the person who took the lead in eating crabs, even if he was still reluctant in his heart, it was always more comfortable than the second one to stand up than the first, just like the teacher announced the penultimate place in the class, and then announced the penultimate place, although he was still ashamed, but the heart of the second-to-last person was always a little better.

With two crab eaters, there was a crab feast behind, and more than twenty officers stood up one after another, expressing the idea of "wanting to stay in the red giant".

On the Meteorite Scavenger No. 1 starship, in addition to a full captain, three deputy captains, six staff officers, twenty-four technical officers and three star destroyer captains, a total of 37 officers, a total of 26 of these people stood up and made their position clear: stay in the red giant.

As for the remaining eleven people, most of them were technical officers, but there were also two staff officers, as well as the captains of the three Star Destroyer Brigades, Chen Ning, Ling Fei, and Lin Mo, who surprised Tianming very much.

Chen Ning, Ling Fei, and Lin Mo did not express their position. Like three statues, he sat there with a blank face and a straight posture.

"Commander, the cultivation and care of the state has helped me a lot, I can't join an organization outside the state and serve others. I'm so sorry, I think my mission on the side of the red superstar has been completed, and I applied to return to the country and serve the country and the people. ”

A technical officer stood up. He saluted Tianming and said with a resolute face.

"Peng Zheng, you have to think about it." A technical officer next to him took the hand of the man and persuaded him.

"I have decided that for me personally, the greatest value is to be able to contribute a little bit to the country and seek some well-being for the people, and if I stay in the red superstar, I can reflect these values. I'll stay here. But these values can no longer be reflected, I understand what the commander means, but personal selfish desires are endless. Human greed, lust. Hope, after all, will expand with the expansion of power, and eventually tend to decay and collapse, which is not in line with the trend of history. Even if I can benefit from it. But I still don't want to be part of this group. ”

Peng Zheng is an idealist, and believes that the law of social development must be from the primitive, feudal, decadent, and backward old era. Finally, it will be displayed in a new era of advancement, civilization, democracy, and freedom...... This is irreversible, the so-called imperial state, the individual alone. Cutting the country has always run counter to the trend, and the people living in this kind of country will only live more and more miserable, and the more they live, the worse they will become, how can he serve this kind of country? This is clearly at odds with his philosophy.

"Commander, like Peng Zheng, I also think that the new country and new system you are talking about are not a good system for human happiness and democracy, I don't recognize it, and I personally can't believe that an emperor who controls the life and death of hundreds of millions of people can always be wise and not do foolish things, because there are no saints and perfect people in this world...... So, I also decided to return to Earth and serve the country and the people. ”

Another technical officer stepped forward and said with a righteous face.

This is a conflict of ideas, the officers present all know that the country that Tianming wants to establish is a kind of country similar to a constitutional monarchy or a feudal monarchy, and when he becomes the emperor who is high, holds monstrous authority, and controls the life and death of ten thousand trillions, and everyone's joys and sorrows, joys and sorrows, are in his hands, and he has a temper, and there may be hundreds of heads rolling to the ground...... Although this is only a hypothesis, if there really is someone sitting in that position, without any restrictions and supervision of the application of rights, who can guarantee that such a thing will not happen?

It was precisely because of this conceptual distrust that four technical officers and two staff officers stood up and said: I don't want to stay in Red Giant, I want to return to Earth.

"Yes, yes, this is your freedom, and I will not force you to stay where you don't want to be."

Tianming nodded and agreed, people have their own aspirations, these people have their persistence and ideas, if they want to go, then they will be fulfilled.

However, what made Tianming feel a little embarrassed was that the three captains of the Star Destroying Brigade, Chen Ning, Ling Fei and Lin Mo, had not yet made a clear statement, and they didn't know whether they were willing to stay or not?

Tianming hoped that the three of them would stay, the reason was very simple, the three of them were the first group of people to come to this plane, they had been in Blue Mercury for four years, and Red Giant Star for four years, adding up to seven or eight years, and they rarely returned to the earth.

Especially Chen Ning, the captain of the Star Destroyer Brigade, according to his actual age, he is 52 years old this year, half a round older than Ling Fei and Lin Mo, plus he has been on a long-term flight mission, his body is burdened, he ages very quickly, his temples are like frost, and he now looks like an old man in his sixties...... Pilots of his age are logically going to retire, and Tianming also has plans to train him to become a starship commander, from the pilot position to the commander position.

For this matter, Tianming has discussed with Chen Ning several times, but he politely refused, according to his meaning: he is a person who can't sit still, he doesn't fly twice a day and he feels uncomfortable, and he is addicted to flying, and he can't quit at all.

In addition, Ling Fei and Lin Mo, Tianming didn't want the two of them to go, one reason was that the two of them were the captains of the Star Destroyer Brigade and had excellent flying skills, and the other reason was privately. Tianming has a very good relationship with the two of them, especially Lin Mo, who is often referred to as brothers, and if they are leaving, he will not only lose two excellent talents, but also two important friends.

"Captain Chen, Ling Fei, Lin Mo, I want to hear your thoughts."

Tianming Dynasty looked at the area where the three of them were sitting, facing the three of them.

Chen Ning's face was still calm, and his eyes were like water. Lin Mo was also silent and sat steadily, but Ling Fei, who was the youngest, had a trace of anxiety on his face, twisted his body slightly, turned his head, and looked at Chen Ning, the captain next to him...... He was the captain, Ling Fei and Lin Mo were only squadron leaders, Chen Ning was the direct superior of the two of them, and Chen Ning did not express his position. He and Lin Mo expressed their position, then there was a suspicion of disrespecting their superiors, which was a very taboo thing.

Feeling the gaze from all around, Chen Ning, who had not made a statement. "Alas" sighed, stood up, first saluted Tianming, and then met Tianming's expectant eyes. He said, "Commander, I, Chen Ning, thank you for a while. You have cultivated me, but I have to say sorry, because of physical reasons, I am no longer suitable, continue to stay on the side of the red giant, participate in the meteorite strike mission, and at my age, I am almost at the end of my career as a pilot, so, I apply to you, commander, to leave the Star Destroyer Brigade and return to Earth. ”

Tianming stood up, "Captain Chen, you are not very old, if you feel that your body is not as good as that of a young person, you can inject and use longevity elixirs, and some other auxiliary drugs to improve your physical quality, you just have no problem flying for another fifty years, why do you want to leave?" ”

Chen Ning sighed again, "Commander, I heard the bad news some time ago, my father, because of advanced lymphoma, unfortunately passed away, in order not to worry me, in order not to affect my work, the family did not tell me about it, by the time I knew, it was already too late, my father is also a pilot, is the most respected person in my life, I feel very sad to hear the news of his death......

Pilots, there is the freedom to soar in the air, but because of this freedom, we have also lost a lot of precious things, sons, husbands, fathers, I have not fulfilled these responsibilities, that is, from that moment on, I feel that I am really tired, I can't fly, I should go back to the ground, be with my family, and live an ordinary life.

So, I decided to go back to Earth to support my elderly mother, to spend time with my wife and children, and to fulfill my obligations as a son, husband, and father. ”

"Then you can bring your family to the Red Giant, I can send someone to settle them properly, if you don't get used to the Red Giant, you can also go to Blue Mercury, I am building two large cities on the Blue Mercury side, where the environment your family should like very much." Tianming Road.

Chen Ning shook his head: "I have received the commander's wishes, people are old, pay attention to a fallen leaf to return to the roots, although the environment on the other side of the earth is not as good as here, but I grew up there since I was a child, and I still have deep feelings for my hometown, I hope to retire on the earth and spend the rest of my time." ”

"Captain Chen, ...... you" Tianming was a little anxious, staying in the red giant star and bringing his family here was obviously a better choice, why was he so stubborn?

"Commander, I have made up my mind, you don't need to persuade me anymore."

"Captain, since you have decided to return to Earth, I, Lin Mo, have also decided to return to Earth with you."

Lin Mo stood up and said.

"Captain, I have also decided to return to Earth with you."

Ling Fei also stood up, and had to say something he didn't really want to say, but the captain had said so, if they stayed, wouldn't it be too nostalgic and selfish?

What's more, Chen Ning has always been known for being strict, even if Ling Fei and Lin Mo have the best flying skills, and they are pilots at the squadron leader level, they are often criticized and taught lessons, Ling Fei used to think that Captain Chen was targeting him, picking bones in the eggs, but after a long time, he only appeared, Captain Chen Ning is indeed a good instructor, and the things he taught him, none of them are useless, although some things are simple and ordinary, as long as they develop inertia, they can bring a lot of benefits...... This is also an important change in Ling Fei's life after understanding the captain's hard work, and his attitude towards the captain has also changed to respect from his heart.

Even, even Lin Mo, who has the best flying skills in the Star Destroyer Brigade, once sighed: "I have learned a lot from Captain Chen. ”

Now that Chen Ning is leaving, Ling Fei and Lin Mo are naturally very reluctant, but they can't keep it, so they can only ask Tianming to resign, hoping to return to Earth together.

"No!" Chen Ning turned to look at Lin Mo and Ling Fei and said, "I applied to return to Earth because I was old and it was time to retire, you two are different, you are still young, you must stay and continue to complete your mission!" ”

Chen Ning looked at Lin Mo and said, "Lin Mo, you are a genius, a real genius I have seen in my decades of flying career, your flying skills are far superior to mine!" With your ability, not just to be a pilot, but to become the captain of a starship, the commander of a fleet, your future achievements will be far greater than my little flight captain, so you can't leave this stage, you have to stay! ”

Chen Ning said to Ling Fei again: "Ling Fei, your potential is not less than Lin Mo, but you have to be good at excavating and learning, just relying on the things I taught you is not enough, in the future, you can start as the captain of the Star Destroyer team, learn to analyze, learn to judge, and most importantly, you have to learn from Lin Mo, learn from his kind of sensitivity and intuition, I know, you have been competing with Lin Mo, you have always thought about him, your competitiveness is very good, only keep this competitiveness!" In the future, it is not necessarily that Lin Mo will not have the opportunity. ”

"Captain!" Lin Mo and Ling Fei said in unison, their eyes extremely reluctant.

"And Commander," Chen Ning turned his head and looked at Tianming and said, "Commander, the time I have spent with you is not very long, but I know that although you are young, Commander, you are not the kind of person who is very evil, and you are even very receptive to other people's opinions, and you will not do whatever you want because of your strong ability, which is a very rare point for me."

I am very confident in what you said, Commander, to build a better and more perfect new country, because I believe that there must be more good than evil in the Commander, and that the Commander wants to build a better country, and it must be feasible to achieve it, and I am very much looking forward to this.

If in the future, I can really see such a country appear, maybe, I also want to come here to see, after all, I have also worked here for a few years, but I don't know if Commander Huan is welcome? ”

"Captain Chen......"

Tianming's mouth opened, wanting to continue to stay, but seeing that he had made up his mind, he had to sigh and said: "Captain Chen, in the future, whether you want to come here to have a look or settle here, I will welcome it with open arms, and I will build a special villa for people to clean and wait for you to live." ”

"Okay, thank you, Commander!"

Chen Ning laughed happily.

Ling Fei and Lin Mo appeared, they had never seen each other, Captain Chen, who usually had a stern face, also had such a bright side of smiling, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be extremely relieved...... (To be continued!)
