Chapter 126: News Eighteen Years Later
Yu Lian didn't know if Yang Xiyi had set off a bloody storm in Lumina; I don't know if Eleanor is addicted to fishing and treasure hunting in the New World, or if she is absorbing outlaws and secretly expanding her army. He said that he was just an ordinary student waiting for graduation, and what could those big events have to do with him?
Of course, if I revealed some things in the future as rumors I occasionally heard to my senior sister, it was really just a mouthpiece when I ate charcoal-grilled ground pluck. Young boys and girls exchange feelings during meals, so there's no need to tell the elderly.
For Yu Lian, who showed a confused expression, the old marshal just snorted noncommittally. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Fei Fei had already put down the tea and appetizing refreshments, and gave Yu Lian an inexplicable look.
As soon as the girl left, the old marshal snapped the tea, frowned slightly, and seemed to be not very accustomed to this pure Chinese-style tea, but he still seriously experienced the taste in his lips and teeth, and then smiled and said, "Your daughter-in-law?" ”
Yu Lian rolled his eyes and directly changed the topic: "So, you are now at the Military Research Institute, not the National Defense Integration Headquarters, isn't it good to live a few days of leisure comfortably?" ”
"I thought that was the case, too. However, Keith kept asking me to help him again. I was so entangled that I couldn't help it, so I agreed as soon as my heart softened, and I had more part-time jobs in the cabinet and the military council in the parliament. After receiving so many salaries, I can only take advantage of the fact that the old bones have not fallen apart and work hard to do something. Now, I have a copy of the latest military information received by the National Defense Strategy Headquarters, the General Staff, and the Cabinet. That kid Keith, you're not afraid to tire me out! ”
Although he seemed to be complaining, his face was full of a sense of exhilaration, and even a sense of mission to die for his confidant.
Yu Lian also sighed. It is really understandable that the head of the National Defense Commission will have such a large number of people to support him in the future.
Yu Lian was very helpless, he couldn't say to the marshal, that was an embroidered pillow, you must not be fooled.
Zhou Gong is afraid of rumors, Wang Mang is humble and has not usurped the time!
When Yu Lianzheng was struggling, he heard the old man say again: "The reason why Yang Xiyi was able to find the location of Taks and his separatist rebels is because of the information that your classmate, Horatio Vain, captured from the Rumina rebel ship when he was the third officer. ”
Subsequently, Brigadier General Yang Xiyi, who was the chief of the intelligence chief of the Outer Ring Fleet and the Outer Ring Military Region, made a quick decision, and after consulting the newly appointed commander, General Bonaparte, he quickly mobilized the nearest Hell Paratrooper Division to rush to the scene and carried out an orbital airborne operation, destroying the main force of the separatist rebels in one fell swoop.
"Well, this is good news, and it is worth ...... for Yang Lao General Yang celebrates! Congratulations to the Hell Paratrooper Division! ”
"You really didn't play any role in this?"
"What the hell do you think of me!" Yu Lian really felt wronged this time.
What's more, the Lumina praying mantis, no matter how big the trouble is, is it at the level of a terrorist, do you still need my special distraction to take care of it? Do they have such a high hand?
"Then, it's the New World. After Eleanor Bonaparte left New Arthur with her fleet, there had been no news for almost a week. This side of the New World is not like the Milky Way itself, there are not so many essentia wave centers, and communication is inconvenient. I have seen the little girl of the Bonaparte family, she is an overly radical character, and I just hope that there will be no trouble. Although the New World is far away from the Galactic mainland, it can be regarded as a power vacuum area of various countries, but it is precisely because of this that it is too chaotic. It is in this way that it is possible to affect the whole body! The current international situation is very delicate, and I really don't want any more chaos. ”
Who was the reckless old man who said that he had the "right to take the initiative to defend himself" and directly threw the fleet that was in the "exercise" - at least in legal theory - to the top of the super-iron?
Sure enough, is it still the ass that decides the position?
"So, it doesn't have anything to do with us...... this time, Yu Lian was a little weak-hearted.
"I also think it's like I'm thinking too much. When you're older, you're always suspicious, I hope you understand. Marshal Perris glanced at Yu Lian, still not completely relieved.
“…… Your Excellency, you are not here to ask the teacher about your sins this time, are you? ”
"No, I'm really here to accept your invitation to taste something that has been supposedly delicious for fifteen hundred years. After all, I'm just a consultant, so it's reasonable to take some time to look around and participate in some activities along the way. The girl of Jincheng is as famous as the food of Jincheng, and it is really worthy of its name. Who are you that pretty little girl just now? The old marshal laughed, and his smile became more and more salty.
A few minutes later, my uncle's prepared six cold meals, eight hot dishes, and four dim sum were served one after another. Marshal Perris picked up his chopsticks and prepared to open the table.
"Aren't you going to be together?" Yu Lian began to greet the others again.
This time, along with Marshal Perris, there were five servicemen. A lieutenant colonel, two lieutenants and two non-commissioned officers should be his assistant secretary, bodyguard, health doctor or something. A dignified marshal, even if he is now only an adviser without military power, this is not an exaggeration.
Considering that everyone who is a soldier can eat it, six cold dishes, eight hot dishes, four snacks and two soups are just enough, and they will not be wasted.
"We are escorting the marshal to this brigade...... Patrol assistants and bodyguards! We don't eat! They loudly said no.
You just just roar!
"They will eat themselves after we finish eating. These guys are all from the Security Bureau, and theoretically it is now working time, so they still pay attention to these! Sit down, little one. As he spoke, the old marshal picked up his chopsticks and carefully picked up a slice of beef that was as thin as a cicada's wing, a little surprised.
"I know, this should be boiled beef in Sichuan cuisine, right?"
"You're a knowledgeable person." Yu Lian praised sincerely.
"But, so thin?"
"Yes, although it is called boiled, this dish is the best way to do it, but you need to blanch the beef with boiling oil!"
Marshal Perris nodded convincingly and put the beef in his mouth.
Of course, this is not a gastronomic worldview, so there will be no reaction to tears and violent clothes (meow) commotion as if taking spring (meow) medicine, but Yu Lian can still feel that the old man's spirit seems to have been filled with happiness.
After the feast was over, the old man was obviously not ready to leave, and he looked like he was in high spirits and wanted to twist Yu Lian waste.
Yu Lian was helpless, he couldn't really drive people away, so he could only find a place by the window, made a pot of tea and invited the master, and began to play chess with the old man. Anyway, he is used to doing this kind of thing on the blue swan, but he is not unfamiliar with it at all.
At this moment, Rongxialou and Pu Street have also returned to their former liveliness, with guests coming and going, and the flow of people is in full swing.
The old man seemed to enjoy the feeling, holding the teacup in one hand and the chess pieces in the other, squinting and shaking his head. If it weren't for the fact that he would always take the next step after a few minutes, Yu Lian might have felt that he would have fallen asleep.
"Yesterday, Keith finally won everyone's support in Congress, and the nature of the battle in the West End system can be considered qualitative. All soldiers who died in battle had state funerals, medals and generous pensions. In addition, meritorious service recipients will receive corresponding medals according to their merits, and all soldiers participating in the war will also receive war commemorative medals. ”
However, if the National Assembly takes the opportunity to ask the National Defense Commission and the Military Command Headquarters to withdraw all "active self-defense rights," that is another matter. The old man was not ready to say it.
"Finally, we didn't let the tragedy of New Paris 18 years ago repeat itself!" The old marshal sighed, but thought of Yu Lian's life experience, and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, when people are old, they will start to talk confused." ”
Yu Lian shook his head, indicating that he didn't mind. He was a little puzzled, where did the so-called "tragedy" begin? His mother died in battle, but the military still gave her enough pension and various honors. Wasn't this the treatment for all those who died in that incident?
"I'm talking about Lieutenant General Minch Vinson. I only met him last week. In eighteen years, it has changed people a lot...... At that time, he was a very high-spirited, brave champion of the three armies, and he seemed to be full of inexhaustible energy! But now, on the contrary, he is a bit of a businessman. It took the old marshal half a day to finally find a fairly positive review. It seems that the current image of "Lieutenant General Vincent" has a great impact on him.
Yu Lian buried his head to hide his eyes. He really didn't expect to hear this name at this time. However, he still said calmly in a voice that was so calm that he surprised everyone: "Oh, he appeared? Lieutenant General Vinson, I remember that after the events in New Paris, he disappeared? ”
"Yes, at first we thought he was afraid to take responsibility and defected. He and all the crew of the Wallenstein were considered defectors...... But now I know that in fact, they all fought until the last moment, and were forced to surrender until they ran out of ammunition and food. Lieutenant General Vincennes imprisoned the raiders for several years before he managed to escape. At that time, he was the last person left among the officers and soldiers of our army who were imprisoned with him. However, before he escaped, he was imprisoned by the empire on suspicion of being a marauder and a spy. It wasn't until recently that we heard from him! ”
“…… Isn't this the equivalent of the Empire's rude detention of our generals? Yu Lian had finished managing his expression, raised his head, and sighed empathetically.
"The Imperial side said that everything was a misunderstanding, and agreed to compensate Lieutenant General Vincent for all the mental losses, and paid a large sum of money. Then, he said that in order to fight the marauders, it is understandable to be careful, and I hope we can understand...... It's a pity that such a famous seed is like this in this life. ”
“…… The empire also said that everything was the fault of the predators. Now that the tragedy has been brewed, I hope we can arrange it properly. Can't let the indomitable hero shed blood and then shed tears? Yu Lian sneered.
The marshal also sneered, but he was a little helpless.
"But, now that he's back, there's no place for him, right?"
"Yes, although the reputation has been restored, the medal and all the salaries for more than ten years have been reissued, and there will be an annual salary of a general every year in the future, there is really no position to place. He has applied for retirement, saying that he wants to do something for veterans like him, and has decided to form a charity mutual aid organization or something. Hope to get my help. So, the day after tomorrow, he plans to have a party in the fog. Invited me, Marshal Guerrero, oh, and some political and business celebrities. ”
Yu Lian's fists shrunk under the table were secretly clenched, but he was smiling on the surface: "This is a good thing!" ”
"Yu Lian, the reason why I am telling you is because I hope you can understand...... Eighteen years of events in New Paris were not the responsibility of Lieutenant General Vincennes. ”
"Don't worry. I wouldn't blame him. If that mutual aid organization can do it, I'm willing to do what I can. Yu Lian smiled with relief, looking like he had already put it down.
Oh, yes! I already knew the whole story and the truth of the events in New Paris, and I certainly did not blame him for it.
It's just that I want to kill him for some other reason!
The mastermind of the "726 Incident", which theoretically will only happen the year after tomorrow, appeared so soon? Then die early!
