As soon as I arrived at Elmendorf Air Base, the plane had not yet stopped, and many colleagues ran out of the hangar. They gathered around Su Yang's plane, waiting for the wing commander to come down.

"What's really going on with ATF3? Is it what it shows on TV? Someone suddenly asked.

Su Yang was stunned, he didn't expect this kind of negative news to be broadcast so quickly, it didn't quite look like the style of the media control department of the United Army. "News......"

"No, the unknown signal suddenly cut off the normal TV broadcast, and a 45-second live video was played. Before the signal is cut off, we see CVL131 being hit directly. The person who recorded the video appears to be the attacker. ”

Su Yang was silent for a while, "ATF3 has been attacked by unknown militants!" In this dastardly attack, ATF3 suffered heavy casualties. When our two-plane formation arrived, the filthy rats all ran away and couldn't catch up. If...... No, definitely! We must make them pay with blood! ”

"Blood debt and blood payment!"

As Su Yang raised his arms and shouted, everyone present was in blood, and the mountain shouted "blood debt and blood repayment".

Getting out of the way, Su Yang took Natasha and Rick straight to the cafeteria, they had been eating a meal for a long time, and their bodies were extremely tired.

"You can really mobilize the morale of the army." Rick spread his hands.

Su Yang turned his head and glanced at it, "Don't you want to avenge your comrades-in-arms?" ”

"Is that anything to say?! Shit, these goddamn Jetrattis! Rick said viciously.

"The purpose of these people is to demoralize us and show our prestige. I just mobilized the emotions of my brothers and avoided demoralization. This is my duty as a wing commander. ”

Natasha tapped Rick's forehead with her finger, "Sure enough, you're still too young!" ”

"You're only two years older than me!" Rick said unconvinced.

"It's also a big sin to reveal the lady's age in disguise!" Natasha pinched Rick's face with both hands.

Just as Su Yang and the three were about to enter the cafeteria to eat, a soldier came running to report that Colonel Claudia was looking for him. Regardless of fatigue, Su Yang rushed to her office alone.

As a result, as soon as he came in, Colonel Claudia put several battle reports in front of Su Yang. Su Yang couldn't help but be taken aback when he looked at it.

"Yatis, they were able to launch multiple attacks on the entire Pacific Rim in such a short period of time! How can they have so many troops? And it's moving right under our noses, and we don't know it? Claudia suppressed her anger, barely keeping her reserved, "What do you think about this? ”

After pondering for a moment, Su Yang said: "Judging from the battle report, there are two conclusions that can be drawn from the humble position: diverting the tiger from the mountain, or emptying the city. ”

"Turn the tiger away from the mountain? How? ”

"They are attacking the strongholds on the Pacific coast everywhere, probably in an attempt to divert all our main forces to other places, so as to void our garrison. Judging from the observation of the strongholds they have raided in the past few days, most of them are civilian or weakly garrisoned facilities. By attacking these facilities, their own losses can be controlled to a minimum, but the people's hearts are in constant fear, but in fact, there is almost no loss to the military strength of our unified army, and they are only forced to pursue and destroy them under the pressure of public opinion. ”

"What about the empty city plan?"

"They simply use this series of events to create the impression that they are powerful and attract more potential Jetratti rebels to join them."

"Or maybe both." Claudia was silent for a moment, "We really didn't carry out Yatis's intelligence work at all, it was completely after-the-fact and passively analyzed. But we're going to put in a bait that they have to take the bait and believe it. ”

"Then we have to perfect the channel, otherwise Artis won't bite the hook easily." Su Yang added.

"I'll let the intelligence services figure it out." Claudia said helplessly, "The sea style of the CVS-125 Saratoga will be completed in the near future, and your CVW-10 will soon be transferred from Elmendorf Air Force Base to the Saratoga and use Port Anchorage as its home port." Because of the matter of Artis, those old men in the staff department are constantly urging you to form combat effectiveness as soon as possible, so that the CVS-123 Lexington can join forces and destroy Artis and them as soon as possible. ”

Su Yang nodded, saying that relevant training would be arranged as soon as possible.

"One more thing, the intelligence analysis department did an analysis based on your battle data with that SV-51, which was almost certainly piloted by Yatis herself." Claudia didn't seem to be willing to talk about it, but she had to open her mouth anyway, "I have done a simulation of the benchmark in turn, and I have come to the conclusion that retreat is the best option. Whatever else you do, you'll be shot down by it. ”

Hearing this, Su Yang showed a very unhappy look on his face, but he didn't say anything, just silently saluted and said goodbye, and then exited Claudia's office.

On the way back to the cafeteria, Su Yang silently said viciously: "Yatisi ......"

As soon as Su Yang entered the cafeteria, he saw Ma Ao rushing over, threw himself into his arms, and cried loudly.

"Brother, do you know how much I can worry about you these days?" Ma Ao buried her head vigorously, unwilling to let Su Yang see her face, "You haven't heard anything for so many days, I thought ...... Thought it was ......"

Su Yang gently stroked Ma Ao's head, "I'm sorry, I'm on military affairs after all, and I can't tell you a lot of news." ”

In this way, Mao cried for ten minutes before releasing all her emotions. Looking at Mao, whose eyes were red and swollen, Natasha gently wiped tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and kissed her cheek deeply.

"Hey, what about me?! You didn't pounce like this just now! Rick, who was slightly embarrassed at this time, opened his arms and waited for Mao to pounce on him.

"Don't." Mao secretly grimaced at Rick, "Alright, let's eat." ”

In fact, when it was time to eat, Su Yang found out that this meal was made by Mao himself, but it was just one chicken thigh less than Rick.

Ma Ao showed a happy smile while watching Rick gobble up his meal, and Su Yang on the side also felt warm in his heart.

After the meal, Su Yang and Natasha drove back to their residence in the city, and Mao stayed at the base with Rick, who lived in a single dormitory, because of the night shift.

They strolled along the empty runway, looking up at the sky where the stars were scattered. The two of them seemed to have a stomach full of things to say, and they didn't seem to know where to start, just quietly, quietly staying together.

"That's right." Rick suddenly sighed.

"What's right?"

"The co-captain said that even though he is on Earth, as long as he looks up at the night sky, he can feel like he is back in the universe......" Rick looked up at the sky.

Mao frowned, "yes." ”

Seeing Mao's surprised reaction, Rick didn't know what to do for a while, just prevaricated with a smirk.

Mao put her arm around Rick, "Alright, alright! I really didn't expect you to be able to bring me a gift back when you were so busy. Also, I didn't expect that Mayan Island has begun to recover, and I'm sure Grandpa will be very happy when he sees it. ”

"Here's this!" Rick suddenly pulled out a wooden spear pendant from his coat and placed it in front of Mao, "Captain Rang can only give you a gift when only you and I are here, so I'm giving it to you now." It is said that it is a special folk item on the island of Mayan. ”

Mao stared blankly at what was in Rick's hand and didn't speak for a long time.

"Don't like it?" Rick panicked a little and tried to take it back.

Ma Ao quickly snatched it over and hugged it tightly in his arms, "No, I like it the most!" ”

"Great! I'm afraid the Captain lied to me......" Rick scratched his head.

Maao's eyes widened, "I said~~~ This kind of thing, if you hadn't been to Mayang Island before the war, it would be impossible for ordinary people to know." Do you know what that means? ”

"The co-captain didn't tell me. So what does that mean? A wooden gun was given to a girl, but I really couldn't understand it. I've always thought of it as an ornament. ”

"Oh~~~ Then I won't tell you. You go and guess. Mao took a few steps forward.

Rick pretended to be angry and said, "Hurry up and tell me what you mean?!" ”

"No!" Mao trotted up.

Rick immediately chased after him, "Bad girl! ”

The two of them giggled and played, and the pleasant atmosphere overflowed.
