Watching the departure of his three good brothers, the Minotaur suppressed the pain in his heart, still sat in his place, and gave his final order - "Son of Keha, attack!" ”

All the warships and the sons of Keha, shoot every shot, even if they hit their heads!

They did not lose the word "elite", and the federal army did not capture a single prisoner in this battle. So much so that Gerald gave a very high support: "The son of Keha is even more terrible than I imagined, I dare not imagine how many such enemies there are on the other side?" ”

Whether it is the Federation or many other civilizations, they will respect this spirit and courage of seeing death as home. I remember a famous movie "The Man in the Iron Mask" in which Prince Philippe was imprisoned in the Bastille by his younger brother King Louis, and the knights loyal to Prince Philip risked his rescue, but he was ambushed by King Louis' musketeers and suffered heavy losses.

But in the end, even if all of them were killed in battle, the knights' spirit of fearless sacrifice touched everyone. Even when King Louis gave the order to fire, the musketeers not only did not pull the trigger, but discarded all their guns and solemnly saluted the last few remaining knights!

Gerald may be an enemy of the Son of Keha, but as a soldier, he has reason to respect it. At the same time, he also has concerns about the actions below!

-- Dividing line --

Planet Keha.

After receiving the news of the death of the Minotaur, Ishtar immediately came to the conference room of the government building and urgently called a meeting of all the military generals!

"I'm going to slaughter Gerald, this bastard!"

As the head of state, in order to pay attention to the image, Ishtar has not exploded in foul language for a long time. And the adjutant has been teaching him how not to control his brain with emotions.

But now I can't help it, you know, whether it's public or private. The Minotaur affair will continue to ferment, first of all, the excessive losses of the expeditionary force, which is certainly inevitable. Even under Amazon's leadership for the time being, the front line can barely confront the Federal Expeditionary Force, but the overall balance of forces is already on the weak side.

The second is the stability of the new government, and a large part of the interest is the war dividends brought by this expeditionary force. Harvesting the wealth of planet after planet can quickly improve the financial level of the new government. Now that the Expeditionary Force and the Federation have entered a state of confrontation, once they enter a protracted war of attrition, it will be necessary for the new government to transport a steady stream of strategic materials to the front line to ensure combat.

Of course, Ishtar's anger must have been more of a personal affair. The Minotaur can be said to be the first manufacturer of base production, and it can be said that he has been with him for the longest time. And the Minotaur is an excellent military talent, and the money can be earned when the money is gone, but who can estimate the loss of an excellent talent?

The son of Keha started as a "revolutionary" and has a lot of military talents. Soon, some military generals who were at their posts immediately rushed over for a meeting. When they learned the news of Minotaur's death, most of them were also surprised, and some people who had a good relationship with him also made angry scolding and fist clenching sounds.

Warfield looked at Ishtar and said, "Führer, did you summon us here for any arrangement?" You say it, just a word from you! ”

His words made all the military generals stop the noise and quietly look at Ista . Because he is the head of state, theoretically speaking, he is the supreme commander of the army, and if he does not speak, others are not qualified to speak.

Ista understood this, of course, glanced at the people present, and said: "You should know more or less about the relationship between Minotaur and me, whether it is public or private, I will avenge him!" ”

Everyone nodded, and it looked like they were going to increase their troops to the front, which should be inevitable.

But there is one more thing here: "Because Minotaur is the Minister of Defense of our country, but because of his death this position is vacant." ”

There is a characteristic of the army, that is, there must be a cohesive force. As the Minister of Defense, he must be one of the highest rights of the entire military department. There has to be someone who can convince the public, or at least be recognized by everyone.

The reason why Minotaur can be elected, in addition to being the base's own people, is because he is enough to convince the public! From the founding of the Son of Keha to the Kailian War to the War of Independence, he has been present in almost every major battle. This is definitely an unshakable position!

But now after the death of the Minotaur, who will be able to take his place? Ishtar glanced at the crowd, and their eyes began to tilt toward one person, Hores. Warfield!

"Me?" Hores. When Warfield saw everyone, they all looked at him in unison, and said with some embarrassment: "If I am allowed to fight and charge ahead, I will naturally be the one who will not give in!" But in this position of Minister of Defense, I don't think I'm up to the task. ”

"Hehe, Hores, don't be modest!" Barbara said: "There is a saying in the army that a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier. The Minister of Defense is the apex of the military position and the highest recognition for a military man. If I could, I would like to sit in this position, but unfortunately, I am only a military staff officer, and I can't fight for it now! ”

In fact, if it were only a military position, it would not be that there was no equivalent to Warfield. For example, the commanders of the fleet, Gore and Eva, are actually not much different. However, their prestige is absolutely not convincing to the public, and they cannot hold the position of minister of defense.

Ishtar looked at Warfield and said, "Originally, I thought of Amazon, she is very capable and talented, but her personality tends to be gentle and stable. The army needs to have indomitable courage, which she is not suitable, but you are charging forward countless times, I believe you know what I mean? ”

The reason why Amazon became the Minister of Defense is not considered is because her personality is more stable, and the battle of defensive counterattacks is her specialty. It can be said that there is more defense and less offense.

But now the Son of Keha needs a situation where he must be led by a rather aggressive general. When Warfield was still in the Union Army, he was shot several times during the Kailian War, but still led his brothers into battle.

It is precisely because of this that Horace is judged in terms of his tactical play, style, or prestige for being able to convince the public. Warfield is the first choice!
