In the universe, a maroon planet is quietly suspended.

Half of the planet glows with a cold white light, and the other half is hidden in the dark void.

Countless floating tumbling large and small rubble and dust. Form a white belt. Drift silently along their respective trajectories. From a distance, it looks like a slow but unstoppable mudslide.

Suddenly. A shadow shifted. devoured a few tumbling pumice stones.

Moments later. The majestic bow of a warship breaks through the dark void of the universe. Emerges behind it in the light of a star. Hundreds of warships were scattered in front or behind. Form a huge spindle-shaped ship array. Like a black lead cloud that obscures the sky.

Shrouded the entire planet.

A fleet passed. Before the planets could light up in the light of the stars, another fleet squatted in.

For the next three full hours, the planet could only watch as countless warships flew over it one after another, shadows one after another. Skimming over its body.

It was a completely different celestial body. They sail freely through the void, cold, tough, and proud on the outside. The straight bow of the ship stood high. Long ionic wake of tail thruster. In the void, there is a blue light that seems to be still, elegant and calm.

In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the bridge of the flagship Heidfield, Admiral McKinley withdrew his gaze from the distant scourge of the red planet. Looked at the Skynet screen. To Hastings said: Marshal. We've missed the fifth leg. About to enter the krait corridor.

Hastings, who had been closing his eyes and recuperating, thought for a moment and asked, "Has the reconnaissance ship in front sent back news of the Mikami Yuto fleet?" "Not yet." McKinley said: "In recent days, Admiral Qian Berlin and Admiral Li Yawu have intensified their harassment of the Mikami Yuto fleet, trying to lure it out of the krait corridor several times.

But. Mikami Yuto was very vigilant, his fleet only stuck to strategic points, never took the initiative to attack, and the defense line shrank quite tightly. So. Our scout ship until now. No trace of the enemy fleet has yet been detected. ”

"I want to delay the time for Sober to go south." Hastings' old face. Full of tiredness.

He pinched his eyebrows. Open your eyes: "Order the fleet, shrink into a spherical defensive formation at the entrance of the krait corridor." "Yes." McKinley replied, quickly issuing instructions to the staff officer beside him.

Looking back, the old man in front of him. is quietly looking at the Skynet screen and is distracted. On the face, there are deep wrinkles carved by the blade of the years, and although the eyelids of a pair of eyes have been a little loose, those eyes. But the road is still deep and clear, and there is no turbidity at all for ordinary people.

"McKinley." Hastings said slowly, "I remember the first time I met you. Let's be a refresher course for officers of the Space Navy in the Mema Military Region. "That's you." McKinley smiled and said, "I was already your student when I was in military school. Although I only listened to you one class at the time. However, for our students of that class, the harvest of that class is enough to benefit us for life. ”

Hastings laughed. Nodding his head, he said, "Speaking of which. That's been more than twenty years old. At that time, the five tiger generals of Feiyang. is still a high-spirited young handsome. Heard. Many girls don't know your troop numbers and locations. Just write to the Ministry of Defense to court. ”

"Teacher, should I be proud of this?" McKinley couldn't help but laugh......

He is nearly fifty years old. Listening to the teacher mention the years, I can't help but have a feeling of going back in time. It seems that the day when I was young and proud was just yesterday.

"Don't be complacent in front of me." A playful smile appeared on Hastings' lips: "When my leg didn't hurt any more, I received more love letters than you combined.

"I'm not comparing myself to you, it's not fair." McKinley shook his head: "The love letter I received is the second place in the five tiger generals of Feiyang.

More than money Berlin. ”

"Isn't it the first?" Hastings asked, surprised.

"No," the smile on McKinley's face faded slowly, and after a long time, he said that he was the most handsome and talented at that time. Also the most attractive to girls is Li Fo, who recalled: "At that time, Li Fo. Already a man of the hour. Young and talented. Handsome and golden, coupled with a natural cold temperament, many girls are fascinated by it.

But he doesn't look down on anyone. is full of military affairs, the more he is like this, the more girls admire him. ”

Speaking of this, McKinley suddenly laughed and said self-deprecatingly: "I sometimes think unconvinced. Li Feneng ranked first among the five tiger generals of Feiyang. I'm afraid it's because he has more admirers! ”

"Hahaha" f Hastings has been nearly fifty years old. The disciple, who was still competitive, couldn't help but laugh. There was also a hint of blood on his pale face. He pointed his finger at McKinley. While laughing. While shaking his head, he said, "You. I didn't expect you to have such a mandrel.

"Huh." McKinley lifted his military hat and gave him a haircut.

"Still. Now I'm not jealous of him.

"Oh?" Hastings asked, "Why?" , "The back waves of the Yangtze River push Guan Lang, there are always people who are more worthy of jealousy than Li Fo." McKinley looked at Hastings and said with emotion: "For example, your grandson-in-law." ”

"You're jealous of him?" Hastings snorted suddenly, his face unkind.

McKinley, of course, knew what the old man was depressed about, and quickly explained: "I'm not jealous of his peach blossom luck. Although the women around the fat man are one by one"

The turn is not finished yet. McKinley's words were swallowed back into his stomach by Hastings's glare, and he turned the conversation around and said, "Before, I always thought that Li Buddha was like a snow peak. Ruthless and insurmountable. I didn't expect that. Your son-in-law. Better than him.

．

As if thinking of the fat man's appearance, McKinley laughed as he spoke: "The first time the fat man saw Li Fo. As soon as he opened his mouth, he scolded Li Fo for being bloody. It was the first time I'd ever seen Li Fo so embarrassed. Admiral Fiyan. was actually taught a lesson by a fat man. "If that time . . I just think that Tian Xingjian's confrontation with Li Fo is not afraid of the powerful and take down the Humphrey fleet, which is also far away. Then later. I was truly impressed by this guy's military talent. ”

McKinley said with emotion: "From a destroyer in the free world to this bandit army. He did something I couldn't even think about. As far as I know. After the First World War in the Newton Galaxy, the bandit army has been labeled as a special force by various ** departments. No matter who they fight against. From the bottom of our hearts, everyone is looking forward to the miracle happening. ”

"It's like the current battle of the Metis system," Hastings said, "I'm afraid, including you, have the same expectations in my heart."

"Yes." McKinley frankly admitted: "Sober marched south with a fleet ten times larger than the bandits. Even if the troops of its forward Banning are two or three times the strength of the bandits, it is difficult for us to believe this battle if there is no miracle.
