Chapter 635: Send your comrades
The Southwestern Federation was plunged into a sea of joy because of the FΓΌhrer's deafening speech.
The entire starry sky was stunned by the sharp declaration of the head of the Southwest Federation.
Are the three integrated fleets of the Black Eagle Company mercenary group of the Great Eagle Empire buried in the starry sky like this?
They didn't need to look for any answers, and after announcing this important announcement of the evening, part of the Sunset Gorge passage was shown on the screen, where the battle had ended.
The starry sky is full of warship wrecks, large and small, twisted and torn, all kinds of steel show the horror of human technology.
The video broadcast to the entire starry sky is very clear, the mercenary logo on the wreckage of the battleship is deliberately magnified, and the main body of the broken battleship is still spewing flames, like a pile of garbage burned in the void.
The person who chose the video didn't even shy away from it, there are countless escape pods floating in the void, there should be a lot of starship crew members who are still alive, and even, there are some people floating in the void wearing spacesuits, if the spacesuits are not torn apart by the energy of the battleship's explosion, with current technology, they can still survive in the void for more than four hours.
On the battlefield, small assault ships are constantly shuttling back and forth in the void, and according to the identification signal of friend or foe, one by one the rescue pods and individual personnel with the logo of the Federation Army are pulled back to the starship with mechanical arms or mechanical cables, and then sent into larger warships.
It's just that the rescue pod with the mercenary logo is ignored like this, even if it is close at hand, and no starship pays attention to it.
Those who witnessed all this remembered the true meaning of what the FΓΌhrer had just said: We have no surplus food to feed an enemy who does not have the protections of the Star War Treaty.
The Southwest Federation not only does not provide food, but even the air is extremely stingy.
Cold, the revenge of the Southwest Federation turned out to be so fierce and decisive.
These mercenaries who survived should be envious of their comrades who were reduced to pieces along with the warship, at least, those who have already died, do not have to float in the cold void like them, and eventually run out of oxygen and food and die.
If they want to live, then they must wait for reinforcements from the Great Eagle Empire to arrive. And that, not to mention whether the Great Eagle Empire will declare war on the Southwest Federation because of them, even if they want to get here, I don't know if it is the Year of the Monkey. Spatial jumps? That terrifying energy catharsis would tear their survival pods to shreds in an instant, and whoever made the jump here would be the murderer who killed them.
If nothing else, they are prisoners banished to the stars, and the final outcome can only be death.
As for the fact that some human rights activists will jump out and accuse the cruel Southwest Federation, not to mention that mercenaries are not included in the war protection clause in the first place, even if it is, will the Southwest Federation, which has been enraged by the massacre, take these accusations seriously? Didn't you see that the head of state was forced to even say the miscellaneous pieces of the Great Eagle Empire! It's almost time to draw a circle curse on the spot.
The barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes, and the horizontal are afraid of dying, this is the truth.
The steel wreckage is scattered over an area of more than 200,000 kilometers, forming a huge steel graveyard throughout the middle of the Sunset Gorge Passage. It also shows everyone how big a war this place is.
"That's the least, it's six integrated fleets to participate in the battle!" There are neutral generals standing in front of the screen, with some difficulty to say a terrible number.
In the history of mankind, there is actually no shortage of large-scale wars, and that starry sky war, wasn't it hundreds of fleets and tens of millions of soldiers who participated in the war? There are more than ten records of large-scale battles above the level of twenty fleets alone, and the scale of the battles of six fleets is actually not large.
However, the battlefield where the twenty fleets will fight is usually one or even a few galaxies, but it will never be like the scene in front of them, but it is concentrated on a small channel. In a small space, hundreds of warships from both sides were concentrated to fight, which is also rare in the history of human civilization.
What's even more terrifying is that the three integrated fleets that gathered the scientific and technological civilization of the Great Eagle Empire were all wiped out in the airspace of the Southwest Federation. And the main fleet of the Southwest Federation on the bright side, even only one was dispatched, could it be said that this is the hole card of the Southwest Federation, and they still hide a power comparable to the top ten fleets?
If this is the case, the war potential of the Southwestern Federation is much more terrifying than the military experts who sit in front of the screen every day and talk about it have been assessed. You must know that those guys who only know how to talk about cannons can only classify the Southwest Federation as a third-level military potential, two levels behind a super military power like the Great Eagle Empire.
But the truth is a slap in the face, slapping those military experts in the face is just a passing, and the real face is swollen by the Great Eagle Empire.
Until now, the government of the Great Eagle Empire has not spoken out for these dead minions in the mainstream media, and it is estimated that they are also a little confused, and they are still thinking of a way not to lose face.
Anyway, no one would think that the dignified Great Eagle Empire was rubbed like this, and it didn't even make a "moan".
Everyone would think that the Great Eagle Empire was reacting, but no one would know that the Great Eagle Empire's counterattack was just as violent.
Yes, although it only happened within the Southwest Federation, everyone would think that it was inseparable from the Great Eagle Empire.
Otherwise, no country or organization would have been able to bear such terrible consequences.
If the Southwest Federation was just a wolf that was bullied, showing cold and shining teeth, then in the future, they may become a mad bear who will destroy all the enemies they think are the most precious.
γγγγγγγ
And more than a hundred light years away from Kunlun Star, the three Federation fleets, which had basically cleaned up the battlefield, quietly lined up in a horizontal line, facing the battlefield that had gradually become quiet, the engines turned off and the lights went out.
On the deck of the Immortal Bird, everyone was wearing spacesuits, and there were about hundreds of people standing on the deck in space.
Except for Zhao Yun, Yu Qian, and several other warships cruising outside the formation, almost all the ships in the formation maintained the minimum safe distance from each other at this moment, and on each ship, there were dense crews.
From time to time, some stars reflected the light of nearby stars shining on them, and large figures of people were skewed as they moved forward on the deck of the battleship, dragging long and timeless.
In the era of the ancient blue star.
The army will bury their fallen comrades on the ground, because then when they prostrate their bodies, they can still feel the heartbeat of their comrades.
The navy will send their fallen comrades to the cold seabed, because then, when they meet the stormy seas, they will feel the protection of their comrades.
And in the Starry Sky Age, the Southwest Federation Starfleet also has its own unique ceremony to bid farewell to its comrades.
Countless people look at the starry sky to express their thoughts, and those starry sky warriors who miss home, will they be scattered in that corner of the starry sky? Then, let them find their way home! Perhaps, in a certain month of a certain year, when the living people streaked through the void in a starship, they could still see their peaceful faces sleeping in the void.
Generally speaking, the dead who are packed in coffins are sent to eternal space, but the captains of Yao Yuan, Cheng Shaoning, and Chu Shanqiu, who died on the battlefield, their bodies have been reduced to dust along with the battleship, so everyone can only commemorate and mourn in such a way of silently gazing at the battlefield.
On the deck of the Immortal Bird, there were officers from the Southwest Military Region Fleet and the 9th Fleet, including Tang Yunsheng and Feng Qin, and Tang Lang, who fell half a step behind them, naturally represented the United Fleet.
Tang Yunsheng, who was still wearing a general's dress in the space suit, stood in the middle of the three people, staring at the void that had gradually calmed down, the veteran's expression remained unchanged behind the glass mask, but his white hair trembled slightly.
Only those who are familiar with him know the inner turmoil of this veteran who is as violent as fire but now does not move like a mountain.
In this battle, although the three fleets of the mercenaries were wiped out, only five ships of the 9th Fleet survived, and the last heavy cruiser and the mothership of the tactical core were also destroyed; Of the more than 300 starships of the Combined Fleet, only 100 survived to the end of the war, and the loss of assault ships exceeded 80 percent. As the final blow, the 60 warships of the Southwest Military Region Fleet also paid a huge price for 20 crashes and 10 heavy losses in order to complete the tactics of annihilating the mercenaries.
It can be said that the mercenaries sank 140 starships, and the Southwest Federation was full of calculations, but it also paid almost no less than their battle losses. It's not that the Southwest Federation is weak, but that the opponent is strong, whether it is the quality of equipment and personnel or its commanders, they are all the best choice, otherwise they will hardly be called the "Dark Claws" of the Great Eagle Empire.
In this battle, two heavy cruisers under the command of the commander of the military district, along with one of his most promising commodore captains and the commander of the rear admiral detachment, all fell here.
"Zhang Yang, a graduate of the Southwest Military Academy back then, in fact, in front of many high-achieving students of the Qingyu Military Academy, he was not outstanding, but as the chief officer of the assessment, I just gave up those high-achieving students and recruited him into my fleet, do you know why?" Tang Yunsheng stood straight like that, and his words, through the communicator, sounded in the helmets of every officer and soldier.
Perhaps only soldiers over the age of 50 will know this past, in the past, Tang Yunsheng was promoted from vice admiral to general, and was ordered to integrate the fleet of the Southwest Military Region, he did not draw elites from each fleet, but selected a large number of outstanding graduates from the three major military academies of the Federation, the three major academies exploded, and everyone expected to be valued by him. You must know that Vice Admiral Tang Yunsheng was one of the popular candidates for military affairs chief at that time, and at that time, he could become a member of the military district fleet formed by Tang Yunsheng, but the hometown residence of those graduates could be hung with celebratory banners, and everyone's face was bright.
But countless people were shocked, because Tang Yunsheng recruited not the most outstanding and talented people in the three major colleges, and the people with the deepest backgrounds who kept looking for him to pull relationships, but a group of young people who didn't seem to be outstanding.
Many of the people present were also selected that year. Over the years, they have experienced the southern conquest and the northern war, and they have become famous generals under Tang Yunsheng, and they have become familiar to many people in the two major galaxies in the southwest. Sometimes in the face of the envy of their classmates in the military academy back then, they occasionally wonder why there were so many outstanding people at the beginning, but General Tang Yunsheng was not the tallest among the short people, but chose them who were not outstanding in comprehensive ability, and they were unknown ordinary people.
Tang Yunsheng seemed to be recalling, "Actually, before I made that decision, I had already observed you young people through the central brain of the academy, and the past of each of you was carefully examined by me, and even, your life, words and deeds would not be missed."
For example, Zhang Yang, his family background is ordinary, his father is just an ordinary teacher, and his son is his greatest pride. The young man is handsome and quite realistic, so he has a very beautiful girlfriend, but this girl's family is superior, in terms of family education background, in fact, the two are far from each other, however, this kid has been carefully maintained, for which he gave the professor a hand in the academy laboratory, and also went to the star network to stay up late to fight the mecha battle for hegemony to get bonuses, just to buy some gifts that look good for the girl at the beginning of school.
It's just that the love that starts with the appearance and getting along happily can't resist the reality gap after all, the reality gap makes the girl's friends unnaturally point fingers, so that the girl naturally treats him coldly and alienated, there are not so many perfect story endings in this world, maybe some people will say that such a boy, girls should cherish it more. But in fact, when the passion of love is over, the girl who gradually recovers herself may not see the gap between the two sides, and wants to use this method to forget the rivers and lakes, so that he will not be bruised in the future.
It has nothing to do with right or wrong, this is the reality, and asymmetrical love will always end because one party is too rational. That day, I happened to be in front of the screen of the Central Brain and saw them on the street through the Tianyan system, it was raining, and I saw Zhang Yang smiling stupidly, and I didn't know whether it was rain or tears on my face, and the girl was also full of tears mixed with rain and said a cruel breakup.
Everyone is like this, when saying goodbye to a relationship, there will be reluctance after all, because, no matter how dislike there is in the future, it is also their own choice, and the person who wants to say goodbye may never see each other again in this life.
I saw that Zhang Yang, a silly boy whose face was covered with water marks, was stunned for a while, and then knelt down lightly, tied the loose shoelaces for the girl who was crying goodbye to his last relationship, and tied the shoelaces for her, and he endured the pain and turned around resolutely, leaving only the girl with tears and a stunned face. β
It's hard for me to say anything about such a boy, but at that time I was extremely determined to come up with a decision, even if his skills were mediocre, I couldn't miss such a young man. I hope that one day he can become strong without fear of any class gap, and I believe that his qualities will make him a well-known figure in the future! β
The Immortal Bird unleashed a special energy projectile that bloomed in circles of fireworks-like light over the steel tombs that surrounded hundreds of thousands of kilometers.
"He became the general of the Federation as I wished, and became the person I wanted him to be, he was a stupid boy, and when he stepped through the endless galaxy, he also found his love, and his daughter would call me Grandpa Tang whenever she saw me, even at that time, I was only in my fiftiesγγγγγγ"
"It's just that I didn't expect it!" Under the light of the continuous explosion of energy bombs, Tang Yunsheng behind the glass mask burst into tears, "I have achieved him, but I will bid him farewell here!" If I could, I would even have wished that on that day, I hadn't called his name and didn't see the silly boy tying his shoelaces for the girl he had first loved. β
"And Lu Li's bastard boy, he is a tail swing student of Qingyu Military Academy, his grades are sparse, I don't know how he graduated, but I just like this guy who seems to be useless but can get just right to score 60 points in every course, he entered my fleet, became a lieutenant, and then a captain, a major, and at least the commander of the fleet, but this is all he deserves, not just because he became my son-in-law ten years ago, but now, I am a white-haired person to a black-haired person!"
Tears finally slipped down the face of the stubborn veteran.
Generals, not afraid of war, but afraid of farewell.
"There are also Rear Admiral Chen Kun of the 9th Fleet, Honorary Commodore Cheng Shaoning of the Combined Fleet, Honorary Commodore Chu Shanqiu, and Honorary Commodore Yao Yuanγγγγγγ" The veteran's deep voice continued on the communicator, "Their brilliance will surely shine in the starry sky of the Federation, and their names will be remembered by the people of our Federation!" β
Tang Lang took a step forward and saluted: "Salute!" β
All the soldiers on the deck took a step forward and stood up and saluted: "Salute!" β
After a moment of silence, one by one energy bombs rose above the ship group, blooming one after another.
It's not so dense and dazzling, on the contrary, it's a bit monotonous. But in everyone's eyes, it is so bright and magnificent.
This is not only a farewell to their comrades-in-arms, but also to illuminate the way they are about to go.
The blue light of the engines lit up, and the starship group gradually disappeared into darkness.
