Chapter 2: Retirement
Vast fields were burning, and thick smoke covered the sky. Boulders fell from the sky, piercing through the smoke and crashing to the ground, and there were sporadic gunshots in the distance.
This tunnel is closed by a huge and heavy iron gate more than 6 meters high, the iron door is full of traces of melting by particle beams, the bloody boy is lying under the iron door, the whole right half of his body is blurred with flesh and blood, the red metal knife held in his left hand has been broken, his right eye is closed and covered with blood, and his blurred left eye seems to be telling the end of life, but the corners of his mouth are curled with comfort.
He was actually laughing.
The boy was surrounded by a large number of destroyed robots, and further on, corpses were strewn all over the field, rivers of blood flowed, countless broken blades and bullet casings flashed in the blood water, it was an army that was almost wiped out.
The war is over, the mission of "holding the tunnel" is complete, and they didn't let an alien robot enter the next city through the tunnel!
The battle was called the Battle of Fu'an, and it was won at the cost of almost the total annihilation of one brigade, and the opponent was only 11 alien unmanned robots!
What a desperate disparity in combat power! And this gap has been repeated everywhere for more than two hundred years!
Half a year has been since then.
Whoosh, the white curtains were pulled open, and sunlight poured into view.
"It's glaring."
It was a white, neat single room, with a young man in a suit standing in front of the window, a long black case that might contain a wind instrument standing on his right, and a small suitcase on his left, with white curtains fluttering in the breeze.
The windows reveal a partial view of the huge cavern, with towers supporting the wide roof like pillars, high-rise buildings, angular houses embedded in the walls, and all roofs covered with greenery. Cable car systems, roads and rail transit stretch like spider webs from the four walls to the center of the city, through large wooded areas, and across the many lakes and rivers. In the distance, the walls of the cave are covered by countless houses, except for the gray-white walls and evergreen roofs, and the rectangular houses represent the edge of this world.
Yuheng City, the fifth metropolis in the capital area, has a volume of more than 20 cubic kilometers, a maximum width of 15 kilometers, and a maximum of 400 meters, covering an area of nearly 110 square kilometers and a population of 200,000. Some people think that such a world is big enough, while others look up at the false sky and sigh unwillingly.
"It's a pity I can't see the sun."
It is said that the screen on the roof of the cave imitates the trajectory of the sun and moon on the ground more than 200 years ago, and has been repeated for more than 200 years, with no cloudy days, no rainy days, no changes, just simple repetition day after day.
Humans have not seen the sun for more than 200 years.
The brutal battle between humans and drones continues to this day.
In the street outside the hospital, about 300 people were marching, holding up posters with children with guns, shouting: "No minors to join the army!" Give the child a happy childhood! slogans like that.
The man sighed, "Is the farce going on?" β
In the six months he has been living in this ward, he has heard and seen similar demonstrations countless times.
With flesh and blood in close combat with alien steel machines, wielding cold weapons that may collapse at any time, you can imagine how high the mortality rate of soldiers is. In order to reduce the mortality rate of soldiers, it is necessary to improve the combat quality of soldiers, so many soldiers have been trained and studied in reserve military academies since they were 16 or even 13 years old.
Squeak~
The door of the ward opened, and a nurse sister with a turbulent and excellent figure walked in, her sexy body that was convex and backward was all covered by the nurse's uniform, and her pure appearance matched with the long legs of temptation was simply the perfect YY object in the heart of a virgin.
"Is there anything wrong with the field of view in the right eye?" The nurse sister asked softly.
The man at the window turned around, and the young face of no matter how you look at it is no more than 18 years old is covered with a smile, and then he raises his gloved right hand to cover his left eye, and the beautiful nurse in the artificial right eye is black and white, and he laughs: "If you want to talk about the problem, why do you look beautiful again today?" β
"I hate it, Mr. Yi Ersan is really." The nurse covered her face shyly and twisted.
"Seeing such a cute expression, my neuralgia is gone." The man named Yi Ersan continued to flirt with his sister.
The nurse suddenly showed a worried expression: "Which side of the neuralgia?" Arm or leg? β
Yi Ersan raised his right hand, raised his right leg and moved it again, revealing a puzzled expression: "It doesn't hurt, it's really cured by your smile." β
"You, the whole right half of your body is almost gone, and you still have a hippie smile."
Yi Ersan stretched out his right hand wearing white gloves and kept opening his fist: "The prosthetic leg is no different from the real hand, it's very convenient." β
"Don't be naughty after you get out of the hospital, you know? Contact me if you have something. β
"I've been together for half a year but I'm going to separate...... Yi Ersan said a little sadly, and then suddenly laughed, "So how about a farewell date today?" β
"I'd love to, but ......," the nurse took a step to the left and pointed in the direction of the ward door, "Your former subordinates don't seem to give me a chance." β
ββ¦β¦ The bunch of guys. Yi Ersan let out a long sigh, carried the long black box with his right hand, and dragged the suitcase out of the ward with his left hand.
"Hello battalion commander!" On both sides of the corridor, more than a dozen soldiers wearing sunglasses saluted solemnly.
All of them are lieutenants, and active duty soldiers above the rank of lieutenant have "social contribution knowledge", and through the sunglasses, you can see a number on the left side of Yi Ersan's head: 86.73, and there are four hollow five-pointed stars below the number.
The so-called "social contribution" is the government's rating of a person's social contribution level, including his professional contribution, public welfare contribution, social contribution, national contribution and other bits and pieces of life, the degree of contribution determines the amount of power and social resources that citizens can enjoy, and is divided into five classes from one star to five stars. Any citizen is born with a score of 60 points and one star, and then points are added according to his or her performance in life, study, and work, while the only subtraction item is "illegal", that is, as long as he does not violate the law, he will not fall below 60 points.
So, what happens when the social contribution score is less than 60 points?
Criminal citizens aged 12-18 are required to enter military academies, criminal citizens aged 18-30 are forced to join the army and enter combat units, criminal citizens aged 30-70 are compulsory to join the army's logistics forces, and criminal citizens over the age of 70 are considered to have lost their social value......
Euthanasia.
This harsh system is an inevitable product of the current resource-poor underground living environment and the fight against the alien threat, and all resources are used in an extremely rational manner for the continuation of the race, and there is no room for waste.
The state does not waste a single resource on people who are useless to society, except: military personnel. Even disabled and retired soldiers, although theoretically no longer contribute to society, will still be treated favorably by the government.
Therefore, the military is the highest status profession in this era, and they have many enviable privileges, but only active duty soldiers with the rank of second lieutenant and above have the authority to check the social contribution of others.
With a four-star score of 86.73, which is comparable to the social contribution of a major general, how can a young retired wounded soldier get such a high score? You know, it's only 1 point to destroy an alien body!
Yi Ersan lamented these soldiers who ranged from 20 to 30 years old: "How many times have I said it, I have already retired, and I have only been a temporary battalion commander for 6 days. β
"That's 6 days worth bragging about, battalion commander!" Everyone said in unison.
"Okay, okay." Yi Ersan sighed helplessly and took the steps to leave.
"Battalion commander, where are you going, we will look for you later!"
Yi Ersan took two steps, turned around and smiled: "Go back to your hometown and get married." β
"Oh...... Yes? The innocent soldiers let out a sound of surprise.
"Bye-bye."
"Battalion commander...... Bon voyage! β
Yi Er and Santou left without looking back, because he was carrying luggage in his hand, he couldn't even wave his hand, but the high-pitched voices of his subordinates behind him still made the feelings he had been hiding collapse.
The back that exudes a strong resolute temperament that is admirable makes everyone fascinated, but the current expression of the owner of the back is not nostalgia and moving.
It's a demonic twist and resentment.
The junction between the robotic arm and the nerve even caused severe pain due to intense hatred, stimulating every cell in the body, and the cerebral cortex seemed to tremble.
This shocking pain is so innocent and kind compared to the truth of the world.
At the same time, the border town of Yandang, an agricultural town that had been developed for less than 20 years, was surrounded by rice paddies and a circular forest covering the bottom of the cave, while all 20,000 residents lived in standard dwellings attached to the rock wall.
At the junction of the rice paddies and the central circular forest, there is a bare circular playground, next to which are two four-storey buildings, which are the base of the local garrison. In a separate one-room office on the fourth floor of the smaller building, a petite girl in a black-on-red men's military uniform yells excitedly.
"What! I'm only 16 years old! Why retire! β
In front of the girl is an uncle with a standard soldier's flat head, and there is a small scar in the hair on the left side of the head, whose name is: Huang Haiping, the battalion commander of the 1st Battalion of the 63rd Regiment of the 22nd Division of the Ninth Army of the Northern Army, military rank: captain.
Taking out a document from the drawer, Huang Haiping said, "Second Lieutenant Zhou Nan, the central government's disarmament policy has been officially issued, and compulsory retirement will be implemented for minors serving in the army and non-non-commissioned officers and soldiers over the age of 30 in the front-line troops. β
"I refuse to enforce the decommissioning policy!"
"There's no need to talk about it."
"I don't care! I don't care! β
"Don't be fooled, you're a child!"
"I'm a kid, how's that!"
"The military also doesn't want to force a talent like you to retire, mainly because the voice of opposition to minors joining the army is too high, and the military has no choice but to make this decision. Rest assured, for talents like you, the military has already made arrangements for future recalls. Huang Haiping sighed, and then pushed a holographic tablet in front of Zhou Nan.
It reads: Admission Notice of the Ninth Central Preparatory Military Academy.
On this day, nearly 100 juvenile active-duty soldiers in the same situation as Zhou Nan were discharged, and the vast majority of them received admission letters from the preparatory military academy.
"Haha, go to school? On the day of the report, I saw the naked body of a beautiful woman for various reasons, and after that, there was a duel plot! Although the other party is super strong, but there are weaknesses, I am a blockbuster, by the way, I get the heart of the girl, ho ho ho, white hole, white tomorrow is waiting for us! β
"I want to be low-key first, pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, abuse vegetables at full level, flirt with girls every day, and enjoy the pleasure of pretending!"
"I'm going to be the king of the harem!"
β¦β¦
Fantasy like that, it's everywhere.
In the military academy that has always been peaceful, I am afraid that there will be a huge wave of trouble because of the report of this group of wild horses.
