June 3, 456 A.D.

On the frontal battlefield of the vast ocean plate, the Battle of Hanging Island broke out.

Hanging Island, as the name suggests, is a volcanic island that looks like it is hanging in the sky.

When the crustal plates collide, in addition to the uplift, there will also be a subduction state in which the plate is squeezed below another plate. And this plate subduction creates ocean trenches. Volcanoes erupt in trenches, and volcanoes erupt from the bottom of the trench to condense, then erupt and accumulate. Like a bulging shield, it grows out of a trench of nearly 10,000 meters.

From the bottom of the trench, the island is taller than the highest mountain on land. As the waters receded and sea levels dropped wildly, these giant active volcanoes looked particularly spectacular.

The location of the hanging island area is the central sea area of the Haoyang plate. Today, only 10 percent of the oceans remain, and the Great Lakes region in the middle of the oceanic plate occupies 4.54% of the planet's surface. The waterway communicates in all directions and is an important transportation center.

In the virtual communication space of the Burning Wheel.

Lu Boya, Zeuyou, and 345 heads of relevant departments from the three bases are discussing the situation of the frontal battle between the Federation and Titanium Steel. Prepare for what's next.

In the interface, on the waves on the sea surface, the large weapons of the Titanium Steel Divine Society fired a large number of laser missiles, and carried out a strike on the federal air strike formation without missing a calculation.

This is a six-legged mecha, which is a composite of two sets of three-legged walking turf, codenamed Doomsday. The gross tonnage is 50,000 tons.

The entire mecha chassis is two hundred meters in diameter and can walk on the seabed, of course, when encountering a trench, the rotating fan blades of the mecha chassis will stir up the downward jet of water, lift the mecha to move, and let the doomsday mecha directly cross the trench.

In addition to the Doomsday Mecha, the Titanium Steel God Society also successfully launched 18 large battleships, these battleships, the turret layout is not the central axis. Rather, one in the front and two on the left and two on the left and right (the arrangement of the turrets of the Nassau-class battleships), this is a battleship of nearly 20,000 tons by the indicators of battleships of the early twentieth century.

Amphibious warships, when the carbon fiber armor is not filled with water, has only six thousand tons of tonnage. After the completion of water injection, the tonnage is 10,000 tons.

Zeyou couldn't help but widen his eyes as he watched the battleship unfold its mechanical feet crawling on the ground, and then commented, "Very good." This expression, in Lu Boya's eyes, was like a child staring at a model of a battleship in a toy window.

Lu Boya reminded: "It is difficult for the salamander warship to maintain its armor for a long time after landing, because the armor of carbon fiber and water composite will continue to weaken due to water penetration, and when it lands, the bottom track is propulsing, and the mechanical foot on the side is only adjusting the direction. ”

On the side of Zhou You, he clicked on the large shipyard of the Federation, took a look at the titanium alloy body, and spread his hands on the equilateral triangular porcelain: "Got it, there is no need to engage in this thing." ”

Lu Boya looked at Zhou You's eyes again and confirmed that it was 'can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour'.

Other panelists at the meeting also discussed the supply of various materials in the war, the security and defense issues of various regions, and the plans for accepting refugees in public facilities such as education and medical care.

……

While the discussion was going on on on the Ranlun side, a large-scale offensive and defensive battle began near the Hanging Island.

This war is very apocalyptic.

The pitch-black nuclear bomb detonated near the mountain island, and a burst of powerful nuclear flashes created a large amount of white foam on the surface of the seawater.

And under this terrifying bright light, on the nearby potholes and salt ground full of brine, the battleship on the shore stretched out its arthropod-like mechanical legs and dragged the hull out of the deep water at the trench.

The shell of the battleship is soaked in brine, and there are white lines on its waterline, which is a salt shell, and the disc-shaped aircraft suspended by air currents on the sea level is like a dense water spider floating on the sea surface.

On the side of the Hanging Island, a rain of missiles like doomsday raindrops bombarded the sea, of course, the laser defense towers on the sea did not show weakness, and a beam of lasers intercepted the missiles in the sky like a screen window intercepting mosquitoes.

However, there are always missiles that can break into the defense system and explode sparks under the nano-energy shield of the battleship's outer hexagonal system.

[This is the apocalyptic style of war, and the apocalyptic wind is not equal to the future wind. 】

Futuristic style of warfare is fierce, precise, and fast, and a lot of people are thinking about fighting around this purpose, that is, in a very short time, the firepower will be knocked out, and then the legion will be directly poked out.

And now the apocalyptic wind gives people the feeling that they are venting their confusion, and the so-called bravery is not "thinking in the place of life and death", but "forgetting death and going to the kamikaze after taking drugs".

In this war, both sides used a large number of advanced weapons and a huge amount of firepower.

As for the problem of insufficient command, both sides have forgotten about it. The Eight-Petal Flower Federation and the Titanium Divine Order, in this area, are 7 commanders versus 8 commanders, respectively. In the chaotic electromagnetic environment, each area is played separately.

As for these commanders, the sociality is an isolated upper-class aristocracy.

So this war - the air tour: "Playing bells and whistles." ”

……

However, when Zhou You complained about this war, the reality was that he gave himself "out of sight" after all.

When Lu Boya was attending the meeting, the titanium steel particle stealth bomber, the control area of the saline security army. At an altitude of 10,000 meters, the special raid regiment of the Titanium Steel God Society leaked out, and they spread out their carbon fiber gliders and quietly infiltrated the coordinate area.

Looking down from the sky on the area controlled by the saline-alkali security forces, on the rocky terrain with ravines and ravines, a large amount of fog shrouded the sky due to the geothermal mining system, which certainly reduced the accuracy of the guided weapons, but also brought great concealment to the commandos of the rose blade.

The one hundred and fifty experienced killer weapons sent by the Titanium Steel God Society quickly broke through a factory in the outer circle of the territory of the Saline Security Army and infiltrated the underground tunnel.

They used advanced equipment to trick open the code gate and enter the tunnel

The control post was found at the first time, and the information network was destroyed.

The guards of the Burning Wheel were slaughtered by the infiltrators with nanobug weapons, and the entire corridor was littered with bloody corpses.

Nanoworm Weapons - small insects composed of tiny silicon carbide structures, which use heavy nuclear elements as energy inside, and can bite through targets in groups under overclocking communication.

The victim who was hit by the nanoworm weapon was like a person who had been hit by a strange poison in Xianxia, and a small and dense hole appeared all over his body, and a large amount of blood flowed all over the ground, even revealing Sensen's white bones.

Since nanoworms are very sensitive to bioelectricity and will bite through neurons at the first time, there is no screaming in the underground tunnel, only blood.

……

In the report of the Ranlun Investigation Team after the fact:

Nanoworm weapons are limited weapons that are only suitable for latent infiltration, and on a large-scale battlefield, with the release of various magnetic pulse energies, such nanoworms can be easily destroyed.

However, in tunnel warfare, the lethality of unprotected personnel is greater than that of flamethrowers, and the effectiveness is accurate, and after the nanoworm surge has passed, its own soldiers can quickly enter the tunnel for assault combat.

Fifteen minutes after the Rose Blade penetrated, a terrible red alarm sounded in the Burning Wheel's underground network.

And by this time it was too late.

On the surface, I can only see the land within two kilometers, just like the smoke and ink of a landscape painting suddenly spent, and the smoke and ink on the ground rose in a circle. This is the scene of an underground nuclear explosion.

A few minutes later, Lu Boya took a fighter plane and circled over the scene, looking at the scene of a large area of the ground collapsing, and he was furious.

She has been slapped in the face more than once in this world. Anger, humiliation, and a strong sense of revenge.

……

Six hours later.

The stealth fighter plane on which the Celestial Tour was flying docked in the east. After getting off the plane, he put on eyepieces and communicated with Lu Boya.

Zhou You looked at the tired Lu Boya on the screen, paused and said, "Is the injured arranged?" ”

Lu Boya: "The rescue team, rescuing" was glanced at by Zhou You, she added: "The investigation team has investigated the results of the loss, as well as the process of our infiltration. ”

On the stereogram, the route of the opponent's invasion underground was played. A vulnerability in your own defense system in this operation.

Vulnerability 1: The monitoring of various areas is not intensive, and there is no timely alarm.

Loophole 2: In the defense level base of the cave, the personnel on duty are not wearing combat uniforms, and the number of combat uniforms is small, and they do not carry equipment such as electromagnetic interference systems.

Vulnerability 3: Lack of long-term monitoring of the inspection network at high altitude.

……

After reading Lu Boya's list of 'remedial measures', Zhou You sighed: "List the prevention plans in the future, and then, you are ready to accept the organizational punishment and give up your position." ”

Lu Boya was stunned.

Zhou You said solemnly: "In the past few years, you have also promoted some talents, bring one up, and give me a list of personnel resources in the Haoyang region." At the moment you're concentrating on experimentation. ”

Lu Boya said in a low voice: "Yes." ”

Zhou You: "Eh, you're a little wronged now, aren't you?" ”

Lu Boya retracted all his frustrated expressions, smiled, and said, "It's nothing, if you make a mistake, you should be responsible." ”

At this time, a group of drones took a photo of Zhouyou above his head and landed on the tarmac in the distance. This is the personnel review mechanism that Lu Boya quickly drafted after the attack.

At the airport, two teams of inspectors stopped Zhouyou, who took out the metal chip ID and slid it on their detector, and the monitoring team placed a hovering robot on Zhouyou's shoulder, which catapulted a laser on the ground to guide Zhouyou to the exclusive area. After passing this series of tests.

The expression on Zhou You's face was a little relaxed, and slowly Lu Boya explained: "Boya, we are here to cast Ding, what is Ding?" It is a thing that carries hope, where is the hope? Hope is the vigor and upward movement in people's hearts, and the sharpness of overcoming obstacles. This kind of sharpness is most likely to be unfairly frustrated, and only the great tripod of public law can carry the sharpness of everyone. Public law is very difficult to determine. ”

Zhou You pointed at himself, and at the same time pointed at Lu Boya: "For people in this world, people like you and me are now strongmen. The law of export can also be overwritten by the backhand. Well, this kind of law in their eyes is not a ding, but a strong shackle. Only this Fa can even restrain us, and that is Ding. At the end, he explained: "You brought a lot of young people and let them come up, so you can be in charge of technology with peace of mind during this time." ”

With such a big reason, Lu Boya could only nod, and still complained a few words in his heart: "You can't comfort me in private." ”

However, Zeyu's expression became more solemn. After taking a deep breath: "This responsibility cannot be completely borne by you, otherwise, in the eyes of those young people, it will be interpreted as a political struggle, so you and I will have to withdraw temporarily." ”

Zhou You submitted his own treatment plan to Lu Boya, temporarily performed his duties for one year, and when the internal personnel of the organization took over the work, he was relieved of his duties and went to work in the Northern Ice Plain area.

Lu Boya paused: "Mentor, you, it's not necessary!" ”

According to the latest appointment of Zhou You, after Lu Boya was demoted, he was arranged to go to the Western Wilderness Region, and he still held a certain amount of political power, while Zhou You himself was demoted, not only as a deputy, but also completely hollowed out.

In Lu Boya's view, a year later, the steering wheel of the burning wheel was directly stuffed into those young people. The heart of the sea is really too big. - Lu Boya complained in his heart: "You are assigning me a new task, within a year, I will be promoted quickly by virtue of my contribution and re-participate in the decision-making of the burning wheel." ”

[Zhou You and Lu Boya belong to the existence of "outstanding talents" compared to most of Fang Xingxing, as long as the promotion system of Ranlun is completed, even if they make mistakes and take responsibility according to discipline, they can quickly return to the decision-making level by virtue of their industrial and military talents. So at the beginning, Lu Boya did not dwell on the lack of power, and now Lu Boya found that the sky tour is exactly this kind of idea, and the mission time limit is also delineated. 】

Zhou You breathed a sigh and said: "You and I both know what the other party thinks, we are ahead of this era, chasing wisdom, not obsessed with human rights, but this world ...... Well, lead by example and tell them the weight of organization and discipline. ”

The understanding of the times is limited, and we must pay some price to interpret the ideas we want to expound.

……

June 29, 456 A.D., Western Wilderness Saline Security Army, Supreme Conference Hall.

Zhou You and Lu Boya looked at the six young people attending the meeting in front of them,

Among them, the historical record is the most excellent: "On the June 3rd raid, he was directly at the post, and he took the lead in making early warnings and responses. ”

Zhou You looked at their information: "The organization has been decided, Lilan, Junfeng, You Wei, Xun Fei, Lu Yi, Meng Xi, and you will be the leader of the responsible team of the burning wheel." (The original core of the organization was Zhou You and Lu Boya, but now it has doubled and expanded)

Comrade Lu Boya was primarily responsible for the 3 June incident and was temporarily dismissed from his post as the head of the Eastern District. ”

After hearing the order, these six people suddenly looked at Lu Boya.

Lu Boya nodded: "If you make a mistake, you have to take responsibility, I agree with the organization's regulations, the burning wheel is in a dangerous state at the moment, if you can't reflect on your mistakes in time, you will perish overnight." ”

Zhou You turned the page of the document: "If you have no opinion on the organization, then proceed to the next step, and the organization will punish Comrade Pollenkes, well, that is, me, in the 6.3 incident." ”

The atmosphere of the meeting froze again, and after the tour was over, the young people who had just entered the organization found themselves completely unable to understand the situation.

People are always used to the old way of thinking. Unless the old thinking does not explain the situation at all, the new thinking will begin.

Lu Boya looked at the performance of the students he brought out, and couldn't help but acquiesce to Zhou You: "It seems that you are right, only by fulfilling the responsibility of this lesson, can the new thinking mode be stuffed into the brain by habit." ”

……

The meeting of the group of eight in the saline security area began.

At the meeting, the content discussed by the six young people was equivalent to the duplication of Lu Boya and Zhouyou's report on the handling of the incident, that is, increasing the monitoring of various regions, strengthening personnel protection, and other measures. At this time, although they appeared, they felt even more depressed in the face of the two old-timers who wanted to give them power.

Half an hour later.

Zhou You saw that the time was almost up, and said: "Everyone, the internal situation plan has been documented, and it will be handed over to the person selected by the organization after the meeting. ”

At the meeting, the young people couldn't help but look up at Zhou You and Lu Boya.

Between Zhou You and Lu Boya, taking responsibility for their own handling made the young people a little less Showa style and very cautious about all kinds of things, but for a while, they were a little overkill, and they were a little less bold in making decisions about major decisions.

Zhou You looked at Lu Boya.

Lu Boya understood the meaning of Zhou You, and said helplessly with his eyes: "These disciples are still young people, and they have no grassroots experience. Therefore, he has the ability to analyze and count things, but he does not have the determination to make decisions about things, and he is only at the level of a secretary. ”

This made Zhou You, who was about to hand over power, sigh, so he could only continue to make decisions by himself.

Zeyou picked up the pen and drew a circle on the eastern battlefield area, preparing to intervene in the battlefield here and assist the Federation in the operation.

Zhou You raised his head and looked at the participants and said: "I suggest organizing volunteers to intervene in the battlefield, although we have losses in joining the battlefield, but we can't shake our position because of losses, titanium steel takes the initiative to provoke the battle, I will sign this order." ”

[After the titanium steel strike, after the internal personnel punished, the burning wheel also had to vote externally, and after the nuclear explosion, the eight-petal flower side immediately put forward condolences, which is not kind to comfort, but a tentative attitude, if you don't fight, the eight-petal flower federation will determine that the policy of the burning wheel has changed, and then make some decisions. 】

After the meeting.

Zhou You looked at the order that he was still the only one who had signed, and sighed.

Here Lu Boya rubbed her head, obviously very depressed, she was removed from her post now, otherwise she would definitely sign.

Lu Boya: "My students are not qualified enough. ”

Zhou You waved his hand: "The lack of qualifications is due to our previous negligence in our previous work, and the training system for grassroots cadres is not perfect. But this problem should not hinder the progress of other processes. According to the previous circular, I will be dismissed from my post in accordance with the organizational document next month, but the transfer of posts will be suspended, and the promotion of cadres during the war will be strengthened, and after a year, I will be transferred to my post on time. ”
