The light of the main cannon shone brightly in the starry sky of the far north.

But the universe is so vast that without the help of interstellar passages, the new events there would have traveled at the speed of light according to the normal channels, and would not have reached the capital until 1,200 years later.

1,200 years, the era of human interstellar civilization, is only a thousand years.

According to the 100-year life span of human beings, such time and distance are like vicissitudes of life separated by several lifetimes.

Therefore, although preparations have been made, once the passage is closed, the backup will be cut off, so Ding Ruchang's only choice is to open up the channel.

But after the announcement, he now faces a big problem, occupying the channel is the Su-2 Military Region Air Force Unit, the Sunbird Corps led by Lieutenant General Yuichi Tanaka, a famous general in Tokyo.

The corps has a total of 30,000 men and two aircraft carrier formations, one of which is also a heavy aircraft carrier.

Behind him was another general of the Tokyo Department who came at a gallop, the Tiger Fleet led by Rear Admiral Li Weiran, with 10,000 people, an aircraft carrier, and a double formation configuration.

This is also 50 percent of Tokyo's space combat power in the Su-2 Military Region.

So now the enemy has three aircraft carriers, twelve battleships, thirty-six escorts, as well as twenty small destroyers, fifteen reconnaissance, twenty electronic combat ships.

They are in the front, occupying the nearest passage, they have arranged a long formation in the rear, they have gradually formed a circle, and the moment the encirclement is successful, the external information of Ding Ruchang's battle formation has been blocked.

The other party's purpose is so simple, Ding Ruchang can only go here, and Ding Ruchang will definitely not escape, taking it from the battlefield will be a complete shock to the federal military, especially what impact it will have on the navy and the federal air force, it is self-evident.

Kong Zheng, who let the tiger return to the mountain, have given an order at all costs, because he knows that after losing a naval legend like Ding Ruchang, Xu's status has already been calculated, and as long as Xu is finished, then everything will be different.

The envoy had secretly traveled through the commercial channel to contact the Hebei faction, who were wartime and were now former allies of the enemy.

And will bring, the news of the split of the Cossacks, the entrant is the team of Asian pirates who surrender to Cheng, Kong Zheng believes that throwing such news at a critical moment will definitely make some people shake their faith, but the premise is to take down Ding Ruchang in front of him first.

Tanaka, as Kong Zheng's confidant, naturally knows this truth.

So, at the first time when the encirclement was successful, he contacted Ding Ruchang, and as he expected, the arrogant old man did not refuse, and Tanaka's narrow face showed a smile.

Even if he knew that connecting the information would allow us to confirm the ship he was on, the old soldier would still face the enemy head-on, as has been the case for decades, and he deserves admiration, but this is war.

The Long Wind connected the communication.

Ding Ruchang appeared in front of him, looked at him silently, Tanaka took off his military hat, straightened his spine and looked at the target on the screen, he spoke: "Old general, put down your weapons." ”

"Is it because of your temporary advantage?"

Tanaka smiled faintly, put away his respectful demeanor, and said with a smile: "No, the situation is not what you think, we already have conclusive evidence to prove that Xu's assassination was not committed by Qin." ”

"That's why you're doing that?"

"Yes, justice sometimes has to be sustained through violent resistance, and we need to have a voice."

"For example, unconstitutional monitoring of national defense, such as framing the rear out of selfish desires, and violating the appointment of the Ministry of War to confront the head of the headquarters, etc., your actions have proven you wrong, and it is still too late to lay down your arms, General Tanaka."

"No, Qin's other problems have nothing to do with us, and Chen's problems should be resolved."

"Chen, the instigator of Qin's actions, the planner and participant in the conspiracy? If Qin is guilty and Chen is guilty, since your heart has been decided, why do you need to say these meaningless words, let's use the sword to speak. ”

"Out of respect for you, I hope that the general will carefully consider my suggestion."

"What to consider? Foreign enemies have entered the land with your connivance. ”

Ding Ruchang looked at him coldly, but Tanaka sighed: "No, general, you misunderstood, the Cossacks who entered the country were Asian pirates, they were coup failures, and they came to surrender." ”

But hearing this, Ding Ruchang laughed: "What about Asians, even if they are the descendants of pure adventurers, the Su-2 Military Region can accept pirates on behalf of the Federation to surrender first, and allow entry without permission later, and pursue the goal of justice by illegal means, Tanaka, you are bewitching your subordinates in this way." ”

Tanaka was short of words and was silent for a while.

Ding Ruchang looked at him disdainfully, but there was no one, and Ding Ruchang was even more disdainful: "What is behind the elegance of pretense?" Forget the oath you took when you were in the army, whether the enemy is a native or a foreigner..."

"Enough, General Ding, I know what I'm doing and why I'm doing it, that's enough, now we are strong, and you are weak, soldiers speak with strength, you make a choice, I'll give you the last three minutes."

"Goodbye."

Ding Ruchang put down the communication, and he looked at the other person on the screen, Major General Li Weiran: "Now what do you want to say." ”

"Get out of here, old general, wherever you want."

"What about you?"

"I have a fleet in my hands, and they can't do anything to me yet."

"This is only one step away from standing on the side of justice."

"Yes, this step is related to the life and death of my family, old general, you are also a soldier, you will not be like those politicians who like to sing about sacrifice and dedication, right..."

"Because I am a soldier, Li Weiran, I have no right to order you to sacrifice your family to accomplish my deeds, but as a commander, I can order you to sacrifice, but I am not prepared to do so."

“……”

Zhao Jingyao stepped forward: "Humble Zhao Jingyao, I have seen the general." ”

"Lieutenant Colonel Zhao, hello."

"Before communicating with you, the commander has already concluded that you will not be like Tanaka, and I can't help but admire the commander's accuracy here."

Zhao Jingyao looked at him with a smile, but Li Weiran couldn't laugh, he was a little confused, the situation is so critical, but you are patting on the back?

However, Zhao Jingyao's following words moved Li Weiran's team, Zhao Jingyao looked at Ding Ruchang, who was standing on the side with a calm face, and then said: "And my patriarch said that because he told me at that time that if someone had to sacrifice, it could only be him, and he only hoped that when we juniors turned to the battleship, you would not attack in the rear, so as to leave a fire for the navy." ”

"Then he..."

"We're going to get out of the field, sir." After Zhao Jingyao calmed down his emotions slightly, he endured his grief and said, "The chief will use the aircraft carrier Changfeng to attack the Tanaka fleet to cover our escape." ”

"Also, I'm here to inform you that the Federation will be getting word soon, and we've made pre-arrangements when we come."

Zhao Jingyao bowed his head and retreated, and Li Weiran's team saw the young lieutenant colonel on the screen, standing behind Ding Ruchang, whose face was still calm, and took a deep look at his old commander, and then turned around and strode out of the command room, and a large number of young officers withdrew at the same time as him.

They were all in tears, afraid to look back, but their steps were firm.

At this moment, no one thinks they are cowards, because Li Weiran knows that once the Federation wins and Ding Ruchang is killed, they will be whipped by superficial people and will never be freed, but as they say, the young people of the navy will live after all.

Li Weiran knew that before he was unsure of his intentions, they were holding the heart of death and standing firmly by their chief's side.

So, the general of the Tokyo Department was gloomy, and he was silent, as if in torment, justice, family, justice... This entanglement stems from the fact that he was first and foremost a son, a husband and a father, a living man.

Ding Ruchang understood his mood, and didn't say more, but pressed the close button.

At this time, the three-minute time given by Tanaka was up, and the opponent's main gun had locked onto the Nagakaze, and the Nagaze had immediately locked onto the other party, and the rest of the fleet was firmly guarding them.

At the same time, the launch hatch opened, and dense air and space fighters roared out of it, and then plunged into the dark universe, and more than 100 of them quietly entered the other one, facing the aircraft carrier Endeavor of Li Weiran's corps.

There was already a fire in the starry sky in the distance, and Zhao Jingyao, who boarded the ship, looked back blankly, looking at the darkness 100,000 kilometers away, but he couldn't see anything, except on the star map radar in front of him, the seat signs of one comrade after another were extinguished..."Go!" Zhao Jingyao roared in a low voice.

But at this moment, the white light of the main cannon emitted by the other party came towards the battleship he was on, and swept farther into space along the aircraft carrier Endeavour where he was located, and then disappeared into the depths with an electronic ship of the Tanaka fleet.

The power of the main cannon was unstoppable, and even when the Tiger Ben and Sunbird Legion were now allies, the defensive shield of that battleship instantly turned red.

Zhao Jingyao couldn't help but raise his head in surprise, and a line of words flashed on the screen: I'm sorry sir, your son, how can you entrust it to the Air Force -- all the officers and soldiers of the Tiger Ben Legion unanimously decided to report to Commander Ding Ruchang and apply to join the attack sequence, for the sake of the Federation!

“…… Sir, it's an open channel, it's an open channel, sir, the electronic blockade of the Tiger Ben army has been lifted, sir, the Tiger Ben legion applies for a friendly system connection... Sir, the Tiger Legion is only half a million kilometers away from us... Sir. ”

The screen flickered: Lieutenant Colonel Zhao, your commander is fighting bloodily!

"Switched on, all approved, all ships, right full rudder, target Tanaka fleet, full power, forward!"

"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander."

The former commander of the aircraft carrier, Rear Admiral Shi Jianyin, took a step back and said loudly to Zhao Jingyao.

Yuichi Tanaka at the other end of the battlefield was shocked by this change, but Ding Ruchang's voice had already sounded in the system, and this time, due to the intervention of Li Weiran's fleet, he couldn't block it, Ding Ruchang asked loudly: "Soldiers of the Federation, have you forgotten the oath you made when you joined the army?" ”

He hurriedly gave the order, but the system caused his team to almost collapse on the spot.

It turned out that because Li Weiran and Zhao Jingyao's friendly forces were connected, the war stopped instantly, and the air force and navy fighters circled aimlessly, and the muzzles of the main guns were automatically evaded... This is because Tian Zhongzhong and Li Weiran's troops are friendly forces, Li Weiran's troops and Zhao Jingyao's troops are friendly forces, and Zhao Jingyao's troops and Ding Ruchang's troops are friendly forces, so everyone is a friendly army.

What's more worth mentioning is that Admiral Ding Ruchang has the highest military rank and was judged by the system to be the commander ship in the region where the Changfeng is located and was awarded the highest command authority.

The soldiers looked around blankly, their commanders looked around blankly, and the high-ranking officer Tanaka was angry and panicked, at 1 a.m. on May 22, 3016.

General Ding Ruchang's slightly hoarse voice was already echoing in the starry sky.

He said:

No matter what happens, no matter what excuse is used, whoever colludes with foreign thieves and deals with this [***] team is an enemy of the Federation, but whoever acts like this is a nation and a nation annihilated, an enemy who is more hateful than the enemy.

History has told us that they are destined to end, these people will eventually be chained to the pillar of shame by the people, and they will be stinking for 10,000 years!

And at this juncture of federal crisis, where will you go?

Now I order, the officers and men of the Tanaka troops lay down their weapons and get out of the way of the interstellar passage, otherwise you will be regarded as traitors...... "Li Weiran!" Tanaka's howl rang out.

"For the sake of the Federation, General Tanaka, please obey the orders of the commander of the military district and do not make unnecessary resistance."

"You!"

But looking at the tears in Li Weiran's eyes on the screen, Tanaka could no longer say half a threatening word, and the person standing next to Li Weiran, he knew that it was Kong Zheng's cronies, just like the adjutant next to him, carrying out the mission of surveillance.

But Li Weiran's adjutant has now forgotten his mission, and he has made a choice.

Why is that? Tanaka looked blankly at the decadent colleagues around him, and then at Li Weiran on the screen, he couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Are you crazy?" ”

"If they are unlucky, I will avenge them, I am a son, husband, and father, but first and foremost, I am a soldier, General Tanaka, please make the right choice, for the sake of the Federation."

Tanaka hesitated.

Then at this time, Li Weiran smiled miserably: "That's it, release a report, saying that I betrayed him, and you are about to be held hostage by me, so how about protecting your family." ”

"General."

Tanaka looked up in surprise at the major general who had decided to sacrifice his family to save him, a colleague he had never looked up to.

"Make a decision before you lose your value." Li Weiran reminded that he noticed that there were some complicated eyes flickering behind Tanaka, and as a person who was connected to the fate in some aspects, his euphemistic reminder was actually a warning.

Tanaka had an epiphany: "Carry out the orders of the commander." ”

At the sound of an order, 49,850 people were disarmed at the same time, but in a short moment of engagement, fifteen Sunbird air and space pilots have been killed, and eleven naval aviation pilots have been killed.

No one can give a standard answer, especially to the fifteen Sunbird Sky Pilots who were ordered to act, because they were all heroic in their deaths.

… Because of the recent opening of the interstellar passage, the latest news has arrived in the capital earlier than we expected.

It was late at night.

Xu Chongzhi, who was woken up by Song Jiani with a pillow, looked at the girl who rushed into his bedroom in horror, but soon he woke up from his fantasy, and the chief in shorts rushed out of the bedroom regardless of his image and came to the office desk.

The document is already on the table, the latest briefing on the specifics of the Su-2 military district.

Due to the rebellion of Tanaka and Li Weiran, as well as the confession of Kong Zheng's confidants, the situation is so detailed, although it is not comprehensive, but it is enough for the Federation to understand the general face of the Su-2 military mutiny.

In this regard, Xu Chongzhi said: "Immediately convene an emergency military meeting. ”

"I've arranged it for you, I'm sorry I overstepped my authority."

"No, you're doing the right thing."

"Okay, what you have to do now is put on your clothes, although I'm really surprised that you still have abs at your age."

… Xu Chongzhi looked down and fled back to the bedroom in embarrassment, leaving behind Song Jiani's crisp series of laughter, and then he heard Song Jiani say: "But I promise, Your Excellency, I will not overstep my authority so much." ”

"I believe it."

"No, no one is worth trusting."

“… I'm wearing pants, can you not discuss these with me? Xu Chongzhi shouted, he was embarrassed to put his trousers on the back, oh, and he had to brush his teeth, Xu Chongzhi complained, and rushed into the bedroom again.

But when he found that the toothbrush had been put away, he couldn't help but stick out his head in surprise: "You had these ready before you woke me up." ”

"Hmph." Song Jiani glanced at him proudly, her eyes swept over his bare upper body, and suddenly her eyes tightened: "You also have a mole here?" ”

“…… yes, you have that too? What a coincidence. ”

"Xu Chongzhi!"

Xu Chongzhi hurriedly lowered his head to brush his teeth, wash his face, and then walked out of the bedroom, Song Jiani, who had regained her calm, handed him the military uniform without military rank, and then said: "Okay, I'm sleepy, you have to know that staying up late is not good for women." ”

"Good work."

Xu Chongzhi was ashamed, he didn't know that Song Jiani had worked for himself until now.

He felt really sorry, but time was tight, he had to smile apologetically, turned around and hurried downstairs, Song Jiani watched him leave, tilted his head to look at the time, sighed, it was already two o'clock in the morning, so she simply entered the bedroom behind the chief room, lay on the bed with Xu Chongzhi's body temperature, and closed her eyes tiredly.

Three hours later.

Xu Chongzhi stood in front of the bed, he quietly looked at her in her sleep was so quiet, just like Xu Yue was when he was a child, Xu Chongzhi suddenly wondered if he was a little unworthy of her, but then he touched his abdominal muscles and told himself, no, I'm still young.

Then he lay down beside her with a smug smile, but God is always fair.

The same is true for the chief of the Federation, victory on the battlefield means a temporary setback in the love field, and soon Xu Chongzhi's face was covered with clouds.
