Chapter 657: Not an Outcast After All
The army of the Jeppen people was retreating frantically, and the mechs under Tang Lang's command were gathering, and they were falling from the sky on the entire position of the Eagle Head Heights.
As soon as Tang Lang finished issuing the military order, he saw that a team of more than 3,000 mecha was rushing towards him from the mountains and forests behind him like a winding dragon.
Judging from the badge and mecha style, it was the mecha unit of the Qingyu Military Academy.
The soldiers on the position were at a loss, Commander Tang's order had just been issued! How did they get there? Especially for those people who lived for the rest of their lives after the war, they knew that more than 3,000 mechas, the strength of a mecha division, that is, as Tang Lang said, took out all the training mechas, not only took out the old books of the mechas, but also took out the old books of the students.
But now, shouldn't they be in the Academy, making a last-ditch effort to preserve the Academy's last hope?
Although the senior management of the academy has made them, the former proud sons of the academy, the last line of defense, the tail that survives with a broken tail, but the vast majority of people are actually proud in their hearts, they are proud that they can become the strongest support of the academy, they are not only fighting for themselves and fighting for the academy, but also for the future of the academy. Such glory is not something that ordinary people can do.
However, this does not mean that the sadness of being abandoned can be completely eliminated. No matter how sensible they are, no matter how proud and glorious they are, they are just a group of young people, the academy is like parents, they are children, and every child is abandoned by their parents, there will be sadness!
Then, three thousand mechs appeared in front of them like this, judging from the distance and time, they had been maneuvering to the front line since ten minutes ago, otherwise, they would never have arrived at the battlefield so quickly, and at that time, the independent fleet had not yet landed on the planet, and no one knew that rescue had arrived.
If the independent fleet does not arrive, then these 3,000 mechs will definitely not hesitate to enter the battlefield.
Surprised, but there was an inexplicable surprise that lingered in the hearts of the remaining mecha warriors.
The time is set back to fifteen minutes ago.
According to the military order of the academy's supreme management committee, Changsun Xueqing had already led the last six hundred elites of the academy to retreat to forty kilometers away from the Eagle Head Heights.
The eldest grandson Xueqing's mecha stood a little lonely on the hill and looked at the Eagle Head Heights, the optical observation instrument was still flashing with blue light from the ion beam, but she could no longer see the battle situation on the high ground, the electronic suppression was still there, and all long-distance communications were cut off.
"The fighting is going on there!" The voice of the eldest grandson Xueqing was cold and sad.
As the commander of the Eagle Head Heights, she obeyed orders, but lost the best students and the most elite soldiers under her command, and that feeling was really hard for her to let go.
At this moment, she understood Tang Lang better, she understood that Tang Lang could leave first, and he still had to go to the battlefield, even if there was a terrible enemy there that he couldn't match. The reason is very simple, he has comrades-in-arms on the battlefield, even if they are comrades-in-arms who have only known each other for two days, he will not abandon them.
"Yes, Mentor Eldest Sun! They are still fighting. A female student answered her with a crying voice. We, on the other hand, became deserters. β
"Do you think the order of the academy management committee is wrong?" The eldest grandson Xueqing stared ahead, and replied coldly, but there was a flame in her heart, as if she was about to explode.
She didn't know what the flame was trying to do. She just quietly opened the newsletter and connected to the newsletter of the college's top management committee.
"Yes, mentor, no matter how noble the academy may be, but if we abandon our comrades, we are deserters." This female student, who was not very elite, had tears on her face, but she answered the always stern mentor with an unusually firm answer. "Personally, I understand and obey military orders, but as their comrades-in-arms, I don't want to hide in the advanced laboratory at all, even if we finally wait for reinforcements to survive because of this, I will live in the shadows for the rest of my life because I have abandoned my comrades. The seeds that the academy finally preserved, whenever they think back to this scene, may not be able to face it.
Yes, we are alive, and in the future we may have the opportunity to enjoy coffee and dessert in an afternoon, watching the children play and frolic in the courtyard, and let the sun shine on us. But what about the young people who stopped the bullets for us? They can only lie in the cold ground, and all our happiness is exchanged for those young lives. Thinking of this, maybe we will not be happy for the rest of our lives, I don't know, a person who will not be happy can still become the backbone of a country.
If I had a choice, I would rather stand with them, even if it was to meet death, but because they did not live up to me, I did not live up to them, and I could be calm! β
The eldest grandson, Xueqing, was silent for a long time.
The female student who said this should also have a retrospective, she was so heartbroken as a classmate, so what should the eldest grandson Xueqing, who is the commander and mentor, feel uncomfortable when she hears this? Hurriedly wiped away his tears with the back of his hand, "Mentor Eldest Sun, I'm sorry, I'm still a little too fragile." β
"No, you're good! It's really nice and I'm proud to have students like you. The eldest grandson Xueqing waved her hand lightly and said into the communication channel: "How many people, did you hear it?" β
Halfway through, a desolate sigh came from the communication channel: "Eldest grandson, what do you want to say!" β
"I ask you, change the military order, I have a clear reputation for the Military Academy, there are no soldiers who escaped from the battle, the so-called seeds are not as important as you think, I am an outstanding person in the Southwest Federation, and outstanding talents will emerge in endlessly. And those of us who only need to leave our spirit on this land, there will eventually be thousands of young people who are better than us to stand up and carry the Federation forward, and I believe that time will prove all this. β
"Eldest grandson, have you really thought about it?" Zhang Hatshui's once clear face was extremely haggard. "Maybe because of you, the eldest grandson and Tang Lang will go crazy."
"My father, as the commander of an army, has his own decisions." The eldest grandson Xueqing's beautiful face remained unchanged, but when Tang Lang's name was mentioned, it was rare to show a trace of tenderness. "And Tang Lang is also the strongest warrior in the world, how can he be tied up for his children's private affairs? Besides, killing all the Jeppen dogs in the world because of my anger is not a blessing for my Southwest Federation. β
Eldest Sun Xueqing's voice was not loud, but several old men in the office of the academy management committee intuitively felt a chill rushing out from the soles of their feet. They almost forgot that this was the daughter of Changsun Hong, the most iron-blooded military chief in the thousands of years of history of the Southwest Federation, and she might be some kind of soft-hearted person.
If she knew that she was using herself as a guide to provoke those two men to be angry and murderous towards the Jeppen family, she would not have taken the initiative to do it! Can this stop her now?
"Just think it through!" Zhang Hatshui's voice sounded. "The last two thousand five hundred training mechs of the academy have all been used and lined up."
"Since you choose to fight, then this battle, but there is no advance or retreat!"
"Thank you, Elder!" Eldest Sun Xueqing's eyes flashed with gratitude.
Of course, she knew how difficult it was to let these old men make such an order that was almost jade-burning, after this battle, whether it was victory or defeat, the Qingyu Military Academy, which had destroyed the essence of the First World War, could no longer be the First Military Academy of the Federation, and thousands of years of glory were lost.
The best mentors, the best students, will all die on this battlefield, and moreover, under orders. This was even more painful for the older professors who considered the academy their home than killing them. Or, they accumulate a lifetime of honor and cut it off. After the war, all the blame will be borne by them.
But they did it anyway, perhaps it was the words of the female students that touched them: how can an unhappy person become a pillar of the country.
How can a seed, if it loses its spirit, grow into a towering tree? Even if you are lucky, there is a high chance that it will be crooked.
That's not as good, just like General Qingyu, the eldest grandson a hundred years ago, compared with what he wants to protect, honor and even life are really not the most precious.
All the mechs began to line up.
A formation of mechs galloping from the academy.
The mecha piloted by the eldest grandson Xueqing is at the top.
Their faces were neat, and there was not the slightest fear on their faces in the face of the imminent Jeppen army, and their fiery eyes were fixed on their commander, they knew that under this battle, they would die or live, and they would charge and kill the enemy with the commander, and they would stand with those comrades who were still fighting.
It's pride! It's glory!
"Thank you, everyone, for being with me and protecting me to this moment."
"Tell me, are you still willing to fight with me?"
Countless soldiers said in unison, "Our glory, Your Excellency Commander!" β
"Our clan is a nation that has been inherited for thousands of years, has experienced countless invasions and has stood up again countless times, we are their glorious descendants, the glory of our ancestors will be inherited and guarded by us, we are willing to fight!" The Young Guards collectively clenched their fists at the mech's cuirass.
"Bang! Boom! The dull sound of cuirasses and mechanical fists striking resounded in the sky, like the drums of war when two armies fought in ancient times.
The eldest grandson Xueqing appeared on the screens of all the mecha with a resolute smile on her face, "The kings will not live up to me, and I will not live alone when you fight and die for the country." From this moment to the last moment, I will fight side by side with everyone, life and death! β
In the military formation, everyone had red eyes.
A uniform voice, flooding public channels.
"Fight!"
"Fight to the death!"
The eldest grandson Xueqing's mecha took the lead in turning into a shocking shadow and rushed forward, "Charge!" β
Behind him, thousands of mechs, followed.
Their comrades are still waiting, and they need to use their fastest speed to catch up with their footsteps on the Nai He Bridge.
At this time, death is their greatest wish.
The army of the dead saw a meteor shower falling from the sky just before arriving at the battlefield.
"What's that?"
The eyes of the eldest grandson Xueqing, who were incomparably clear but now full of shock, reflected the light and shadow of those meteors falling from the sky.
Then, Tang Lang's familiar voice came from the channel: "I am Tang Lang of the Independent Fleetγγγγγγ β
Reinforcements are coming.
Here we are, too.
The mechs who returned to the battlefield burst into tears.
They didn't know that the grievances of the remnants of the Young Guards, who were standing under the protection of the reinforcements, were also released the moment they appeared.
They were not abandoned, they were not abandoned by the academy and their mentors and classmates, it was the best gift they could give after a hard battle and still breathe.
They are not afraid of death, not at all, but they don't want to be outcasts.
"Woohoo! Michelle, let me tell you one thing, the eldest grandson mentor is back again, and they haven't abandoned us. Zhou Feng held Mi Xue's hand, which was already lying in the medical cabin, and cried loudly.
This is definitely a strong young man, he didn't cry when his comrades-in-arms kept falling, he didn't cry when his lover suffered a heavy blow and life and death were separated by a line, and he didn't cry when he was almost out of gas, and he didn't cry when he wanted to blow himself up and pull a few unlucky eggs, but at the moment when his comrades-in-arms finally returned, tears rained down.
All choices on the battlefield are just choices made by commanders based on gains and losses, but for ordinary officers and soldiers, what they want to do most is nothing more than not to abandon or give up. Even if it's dead, brother, please let me find you, I don't want to be in a daze for years to come, just looking at your name.
"! The eldest grandson chick is here, and she looks very strong. "Hob meat saw the eldest grandson Xueqing for the first time, and called to greet Tang Lang who stepped forward." She lied to you on Rafi Star, her mecha control skills are definitely not below the intermediate level 2 mecha master. β
"It's okay!" Tang Lang breathed a long sigh of relief.
The battle was so fierce that after a general glance at the list of casualties, he saw that many of the mentors he was familiar with appeared on it, and he was really afraid to see the name of the eldest grandson Xueqing.
However, perhaps because of the long parting, he didn't know what to say for a while, and it was on such an occasion.
The commanders of the independent fleet, who are qualified to participate in this chain of communication, collectively held their breath.
With Chen Shi's big mouth, who in the top echelons of the independent fleet doesn't know that the woman in front of him, who combines talent and beauty, is also Tang Lang's ambiguous object? Thinking that Tang Lang is omnipotent on the battlefield, and there are excellent women such as Ming Yueshang and Qiu Ruge on the starship, he should be invincible in the love field.
Many young commanders who regarded Tang Lang as their idol naturally watched the exchange between the two best young generals in the Southwest Federation with an attitude of learning.
However, what happened next γγγγγγ
"You're here!" According to the Dragon's Tooth Mecha Zhi Brain, which has the supreme command of the battlefield, the eldest Sun Xueqing, who handed over the command, connected with the Xiang Yu mecha standing in front of him.
"Well, I'm here." Tang Lang nodded a little sneeringly.
"That! The commander of the Eagle Head Heights, Changsun Xueqing, reports to His Excellency the Commander of Major General Tang Lang! Seeing Tang Lang's somewhat stunned appearance, the eldest grandson Xueqing saluted Tang Lang very solemnly.
"Mentor Eldest Sun is serious!" Tang Lang was excited, and hurriedly raised his hand to return the salute.
It turns out that the love affair of a soldier is like this! Salute to each other!
It seems that there is nothing wrong with it, but it is a bit old-fashioned, and a few young commanders who have not had time to experience love can't help but feel a little regretful. But I didn't notice that a bunch of old birds were all weird.
It is really rare to make Tang Lang lose his temper so much! It seems that the legend is true.
That is, what should those two do? No one dared to look at the faces of the other two female officers who were also qualified to participate, and they must not have looked good.
"On behalf of the Supreme Management Committee of the Academy, I would like to pay tribute to all the officers and men of the Southwest Military Region Fleet, the 9th Fleet, and the Independent Fleet who returned to Kunlun Star." The eldest grandson Xueqing replied softly.
Some formulaic greetings, Tang Lang also replied: "I will convey to the three fleetsγγγγγγ β
"Also, on behalf of the Academy's Supreme Management Committee, I welcome you back." The eldest grandson, Xueqing, grinned toothily and brightly. "That's what I should say as the commander of Eagle Head Heights."
"And as the eldest grandson Xueqing herself, what I want to say is, I miss you!"
