Volume 2: Snow Day Chapter 19. Cold and indifferent

Earth?

In just two words, it is like a boulder, which is tantamount to smashing down on the head, making Lu Yuan's chest tightness and shortness of breath, unbelievable.

In the pitch-black deployment base, only the screen of this control terminal is shooting blue light, reflecting Lu Yuan's face into a lifeless gray-blue-gray-white, just like this planet that only exists in textbooks now, called Earth

He didn't need to ask the AI any more to know that Earth was thousands of light-years away from Zeus, a desperately long journey that took two generations of the previous Celestial fleet to reach Zeus, even after folding and jumping. Until now, even if a space battleship shuttles to the outermost light monument of Zeus, and travels a few centuries, it will probably be able to touch the Kuiper belt.

No one wants to travel to a planet that is nothing but the ashes of war, even if it was once an old home.

O Earth.

Lu Yuan stared intently at a yellow dwarf star on the screen revolving around the earth, and his eyelids didn't move, as if even the AI felt that his heart was turning over the river and the sea, and the terminal screen continued to burst out dense white bars, disturbing the galaxy map in chaos, and it was only after a long time that it flashed back to normal.

Lu Yuan carefully examined the galaxy map and planetary data displayed on the terminal screen, he rubbed his eyes, and said bitterly: "Earth, number: M34-4602151-B. ”

After reading it, Lu Yuan raised his head and stared at the overhead lamp that exploded, as if it was the sun 150 million kilometers away, the old sun of mankind, this astronomical unit is just a time to kill a cigarette for the fleet, but for Lu Yuan at this moment, maybe there will be a rescue spaceship to pick it up the next day, or he may spend his whole life here.

It was only dim for a while, and in the fragments of memory that appeared intermittently, Zhang Yueyang jumped out of the appearance of banging and shouting in front of the dormant hatch, and he suddenly felt a sense of resentment, this damn old man, why did he have to pull him Lu Yuan, a guy who had died countless times, from the bottom of one pot, and then throw it into the bottom of another pot. Why don't you just be cooler and turn into ashes at the moment when the warship is martyred, how beautiful this fate is for a soldier and a paratrooper

Lu Yuan was speechless for a long time, holding the railing, lowering his head slightly, looking directly at the hillock of the remains of the sailors of the Xiyun next to the blocked door, those closed or opened eyes seemed to be looking at Lu Yuan together, making Lu Yuan tremble and wake up.

Lu Yuan slammed his fist on the console, since he had fallen into this field, what was it if he fell to the earth? Compared to the countless fleet robes that died on the Corona, he Lu Yuan has been favored by Lady Luck more than once, what right does he have to complain?

If nothing else, at least find the three surviving comrades who didn't know where they fell to Earth.

Let them know that there are still their compatriots in this heaven and earth, in this land that has been soaked in the blood of their ancestors.

"Brethren." Lu Yuan pressed his right hand to his chest and said to the corpses of the sailors.

"I, Lu Yuan, the captain commander of the 28th Parachute Brigade under the 1st Mobile Division, swear here."

The lightning medallion of the gladius of honor flowed with a little brilliance, like the souls of the thirteen conquered planets that Lu Yuan had set foot on gathered here. Lu Yuan drew his sword sonorously, although it was only half cut, but just like this shattered sword, the only thing that could repair it was glory and victory.

"I must have found the three compatriots who were scattered and brought them home with me."

Lu Yuan raised his right arm, straightened his chest and back, saluted the military salute, saluted the dead, and saluted the soldiers who fought to the last moment for their family and country!

Putting away his arms, Lu Yuan also put away other miscellaneous emotions, and let the calmness return to his mind, so that he could play the level that a paratrooper captain should have.

"Report on the damage to the Yugumo, the available compartments, and the remaining fuel, armaments, with a focus on aircraft and land vehicles." Lu Yuan commanded the AI. First call up the overview map of the ship's interior and look at it.

The AI immediately responded: "The damage assessment of the ship, 'big break', the rear half of the hull is separated and lost, the fuel reserve is 3%, the main guns of the bow 1 to 4 are automatically in an unadjusted state due to lack of fuel, the secondary turret has all been damaged due to shock, the all-domain aircraft has burned the circuit due to the huge overload of the shuttle, and the rear half of the hull has been detached, and all heavy land vehicles and surface modification vehicles have been lost." The specific list is as follows......"

Lu Yuan's brows ached faintly, and he didn't know if it was due to the sequelae of dormancy or the fact that the Xiyun couldn't be worse.

In terms of the current damage of the Xiyun, unless there is an airport dock next to it, even if it is surrounded by a large fleet, there is only one way to abandon the ship, at most leave some more time for the sailors to leave. The remaining fuel, supplies, and usable cabins are pitifully small, so it's no wonder that AI has to concentrate energy and "transfer power" to open a door.

Lu Yuan pondered for a moment, knowing that he was going to leave the wrecked ship of the Xiyun sooner or later, rather than leaving the fuel and waiting for it to evaporate, it would be better to come in handy as soon as possible, so he said: "Activate external feelings, scan the surrounding environment specifically, and focus on confirming whether there are signs of life." ”

"The request is refused, and according to Article 3 of the State of Emergency Ordinance on the Crash of a Warship, all actions that use more than 1% of the backup energy must be manually confirmed by the requester. Please go to the bridge to confirm. At the same time, you, as the sole survivor, need to keep a post-crash log. ”

With that, a crack cracked in the lockdown door of the deployment base leading to the bridge. What a budget-conscious woman. Lu Yuan thought about it, and didn't say much, just left.

Before stepping into the deeper darkness, Lu Yuan looked back silently, took one last look at the deployment base, nodded slightly, and then no longer hesitated.

A frigate is no more than a kilometer long, and Lu Yuan is already in the amidships, and it doesn't take much time to get to the bridge at the bow. The Yunon is a standard frigate design, focusing on assault speed and hull defense, so although it is judged to be in a "big break" state by artificial intelligence, the interior is not too bad, and the passage above the keel still maintains relative integrity.

Lu Yuan stepped out of the deployment base and went around more than a dozen times, the air was extremely turbid, and the floating dust was all around, and the cold was unbearable. He removed the oxygen mask from the skull of a skeletal sailor from the side of the aisle, and searched all the way for an emergency breathing hole, sometimes forcing him to take a deep breath until he could barely hold himself before he could find the next one that still had a stock.

On the way, he also passed through several dormant cabins, Lu Yuan unsealed dozens of fully armed dormant sailors, none of them woke up, Lu Yuan sighed a few times, he couldn't imagine how dense the fire towards the Xiyun was when he shuttled through the light monument at that time, so that few people rushed to the close

Walking across the crumbling covered bridge, the snow-white light seeping in was particularly dazzling, and the leaky armor plate of the "brush" shook slightly, Lu Yuan ignored the warning of the radiation value of the artificial intelligence, took off his mask, and took a hard breath of the air above the earth.

Cold, indifferent, and not sweet.

The visor jumps back to green, and around the corner is the slightly cramped command bridge of the Sunset. The circular gravity capsule had long since been cut off from the energy supply and fell into the groove. The 360-degree real-time holographic film inside is rolled up and blown like waste paper, while the central levitating magnet for the captain is fixed in place. All the bridge crews were in place, wearing seat belts, and would rather die of suffocation due to lack of oxygen than leave their positions.

Lu Yuan was careful not to touch the bones of the fallen sailor, but as soon as he touched the captain, the soldier who was still holding the sword on the command board with one hand and the other suddenly collapsed into a pile of powder, and only the helmet was swirling "in the bones".

Lu Yuan's heart was extremely heavy to brush off the dust on the command board, pressed the start button of the external equipment, the weak power signal passed quickly, the sunset clouds gradually woke up, the bridge illuminated the long-lost daylight, did not wait for a moment, this daylight seemed to send a breath of life to the sailors who turned into plastics, a faint breeze blew, and the dust in the bridge danced.

Lu Yuan stepped down from the command position, sat on the steps, pulled his unkempt hair, and put away the captain's ashes one by one. The equipment outside the ship rumbled back and forth, the AI was working happily like a hamster seeing the rice warehouse, and Lu Yuan picked up a small token, which was the exclusive recorder of the captain's logbook.

It will take at least a quarter of an hour for the scanning outside the ship to have an initial effect, Lu Yuan naturally inserted the log recorder into a supercomputer computer that can still run, and used the highest authority to skip the captain's password, Lu Yuan directly turned to the date of the Battle of Eagle Valley Star and began to read, skipping the routine record of the course, speed, navigation, meteorology, turbulence and other data that can only be understood by professional sailors, and jumped to the column of major events written by the captain

"On the 7th day of the frost month of the year 228 of the Celestial Calendar...... The Yunon participated in the ground support operation against the Eagle Valley Star, consuming some ammunition, and our ship needs to return to the mothership for quarterly repairs as soon as possible, otherwise it is easy to have too long of a long time for the main gun to be adjusted. ”

"Frost Moon 9th...... The flagship has set up a light monument, which should be a sign that the return journey is approaching, the boys are homesick, and so am I, it has been five years, and my son should enter the lower basic education at this time, and then it should not only be shouting 'Dad'. ”

"Frost Moon 14th...... After the light monument was set up and the route was being finally checked, the Xiyun was ordered to patrol the light monument, and it was also good to return to the home port for preparation. ”

The captain's private log came to an abrupt end on the 15th, the day the fleet was attacked. Lu Yuan had no choice but to replace it with a backup combat log automatically generated by the system.

"December 15th in the Celestial Calendar...... Detected unidentified spatial disorder of the flagship light monument...... Battle Alert! The enemy steals our Light Monument to make a reverse jump! The enemy ships have appeared, all ready for the main guns! …… The number of the enemy ship has been confirmed! The Kyushu-class heavy cruiser, with the port number 49, was confirmed to be the 'Ranki'. ”

Lu Yuan closed the battle log irritably, what do you mean? Confirm that it was the "Orchid" who took the lead in breaking through the light monument and attacking your own fleet? This is the flagship of the decoy fleet after the Battle of Sentinel, and now it has turned around and hit its own fleet?

Mutiny?!

No way! This is the cruiser she is on!

All kinds of thoughts rushed through the tip of her heart, and the throbbing almost clenched Lu Yuan's heart into a ball, Rao is has experienced so much in just a few hours, Lu Yuan thought that she would not be invaded by all poisons, but when she heard that the cruiser she was on had become the vanguard of the enemy's front, how could she accept this!

Lu Yuan tugged at his forehead angrily. He didn't dare to think about what happened to her for a while, if she lived, she would either die in pain on the captured Orchid, or even ...... Even...... No way!

But do you still want her to die!
