No. 3 Gnaku, rows of Wasp fighters lined up. The pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info gives people the illusion of a knight standing on both sides.

Liao Fan walked side by side with Xiucai, followed by Natalie and three other new faces, this is the newly formed Apple Squadron.

The record of sinking destroyers in battle was too eye-catching, and Liao Fan became one of the trump cards. He has surpassed Jack to become the youngest squadron leader on the Wanderer. Edlaide deserves to be appointed vice-captain at the same time due to his solid strength and outstanding performance among the newcomers.

To be able to have such an astonishing rate of promotion, the main thing is to learn about the war. The death of a large number of veteran fighters naturally made room for them to ascend. This phenomenon is commonly known as firing line promotion.

Walking into the hangar, the Apple squadron was divided into two groups, the two captains walked to the makeshift conference room, and the subordinates went to the fighter plane to make the final preparations before the battle.

The appearance of two new faces did not cause much repercussions at the squadron commander-level meeting. Because a third of the people here are new faces.

The meeting was chaired by Zuma, who was the real commander of the warplanes. This tall, bald black man was very majestic, and under the glance of his sharp eyes, the squadron leaders immediately quieted down. Making eye contact, he nodded at Liao Fan, making him feel flattered.

Translucent tactical boards are placed in the center of the venue. Under Zuma's control, the indicator board demonstrates the battlefield situation.

L1 Spaceport has fallen. Several blue arrows representing your fleet are escaping in the narrow passage. Less than 60,000 kilometers away from the fleet, it is the sphere of influence of the defenders of the moon.

A safe place at hand, but a world away. Because the Imperial fleet, marked with a red arrow, cruises the course.

"This is the situation we are facing, the enemy is blocking the way out, and the earth side cannot count on it."

The audience was silent.

Liao Fan had already estimated the severity of the situation, but he didn't expect the problem to be so serious. He and Xiucai looked at each other and were speechless.

"Colonel Falken will now explain our plans."

Falken still looks like a cadet instructor. He was calm and calm, and his expression of confidence made Liao Fan's nervous mood relaxed.

The instructor stands in front of the signboard. The same location, with a different style from Zouma. He is quiet and serious, which makes people think of elders and leaders. He is the true leader of the group, the well-deserved king of the fall.

"The enemy has an advantage, and a detour is not a good choice. Our plan was to leave the non-combat ships behind and keep them away from the battlefield. The Wanderer battle group launched a breakout battle alone. The specific breakthrough steps are as follows... ”

"Why don't you call in reinforcements from the defenders of the moon?"

Under the incredulous gaze of the squadron leaders, Xiucai was like a sinner who had offended the gods.

"Questioning the Scythe of Death, I really don't know how heavy I am!"

In the crowd, someone muttered, causing a chorus of approval.

Xiucai's expression was calm, and he didn't hear it. He just waited quietly for the instructor's answer. Liao Fan admires Edlaide's courage very much. Thinking that he is worthy of being the squad leader, the courage is different.

The instructor nodded slightly, which was an affirmation of Xiucai.

"We've tried to contact the moon. Citing the absence of the main fleet, they rejected the request for reinforcements. ”

The crowd erupted in shouting and swearing. When the Imperial fleet attacked Earth, it was already unbelievable that it did not send a fleet to attack. Now that friendly forces are close at hand, the Moon Fleet is still cowering in the fortress and cannot come out, which is beyond the bottom line of many people.

Zuma's stern cough stopped the denunciation rally.

"Anyway, it's impossible to count on them. In this battle, our army was at a disadvantage in terms of troops, training, geographical advantages, and other factors. The replenishment of battle groups has also bottomed out. The situation is dire. I hope you understand that if you don't succeed in this battle, you will become a benevolent, and everyone's life is in your own hands... ”

The commotion came to an abrupt end. The squadron leaders all turned pale. Falken turned to look at Zuma in surprise, and the tall black man smiled back with confidence. The former slapped his forehead with his palm with a helpless expression.

It took Liao Fan a while to realise that Zuma was boosting morale. As for its efficacy, it can only be said that it is not satisfactory.

。。。。。。

The meeting ended in gloom. Instead of immediately dispersing, people formed small groups to discuss specific matters of cooperation. Liao Fan and Xiucai were left to dry. It seems that the effects of the head-on impact on the Death Scythe have not yet dissipated.

"It's really surprising, do you usually pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger? Got me looking away. Let's work together in the future! ”

Facing Jack stretching out his hand, Liao Fan was stunned at first, and then shook hands with him.

After getting acquainted, he learned that Jack was a person with a big gap between what he was on the outside and what he was doing. Behind his lofty expression, a sincere heart was revealed.

Liao Fan accurately grasped Jack's intentions, and in response to this sincerity, he increased the intensity of the handshake.

Jack also stepped up. For further sincerity, Liao Fan continued to increase his efforts.

The expressions of the two of them were a little stiff, and the clenched parts in front of them made a creaking sound.

Their actions quickly attracted attention. The two people who were inexplicably involved in the wrestling were unwilling to let go first. The situation reached an impasse, and the green tendons on the heads of the two burst out one by one.

"And in the mood to play wrestling games. It's really morale available. ”

"Aren't the two of us not fighting and not knowing each other! If they survive to the end of the war, they will surely become friends. ”

The two colonels looked at each other and laughed, no longer worried about morale.

。。。。。。

Slow, low tunes reverberate. Port 1 is dimly illuminated. Falken, Liao Fan, Edlaide, Ivan, Natalie, Avina, and the other five surviving Lightning School students stood in a line.

Brewster-class fighters in the atmosphere, after dismantling the onboard intelligence system, draped the flag of the Solar System Federation, waiting to go to their final destination.

Natalie sobbed under her, and Avina's eyes were red. Liao Fan sighed that the girls were emotional, and he was not feeling good.

Preparing for a breakout battle, which is useless at this stage and the Brewster fighter can only be scrapped.

According to the tradition of the Space Force. Any fighter that has participated in actual combat and survived will receive a funeral worthy of their honor.

This is where Brewster's funeral takes place.

At the ejection port, the indicator lights jump to green one by one, indicating that the funeral has entered its final stage. The mournful music became intense, and Falken took the lead in saluting, and the people behind him also threw out the standard etiquette.

In the distance, the officers and men of the Wanderer were observing the funeral, and no one came to disturb them. This is a sacred moment for the Space Army. The users of the fighter planes need to say goodbye to their close 'comrades-in-arms'.

The alloy door slowly split into four pieces from the center, and the tractor carried the Brewsters up to the lift. Having lost their armament and precision parts, the eight fighters lost their vitality and lay quietly on the platform waiting for the final moments.

The alloy door is closed and the hum gradually becomes louder, which is a special vibration caused by the alternation of the magnetic field. At the other end of the ejection port, the passage was cleared, and green bands of light outlined the whole picture of the passage. Bands of light that resemble a flowing effect are wriggling regularly.

The mourning music stopped abruptly, and at the same time, the eight fighters turned into gray bands of light and disappeared from everyone's field of vision.

"Rite over!"

After Falken's command, people did not lower their right arms for a long time.

"Well, where will the Brewsters go? Lagrange cemetery? It is said that this is the final destination of all spacecraft. Natalie's mood had not yet calmed down, and with red eyes, she asked about the whereabouts of the fighter.

"No, it won't be sent there, Brewster is not a spacecraft, they are aircraft and will be sent to Earth. They will meet their final moments in the atmosphere. ”

In Falken's voice, there was a certain low mood.

It turns out that this person also has feelings, and Liao Fan is not without emotion.

Ivan hurried away without greeting everyone. Liao Fan thought that he didn't want anyone to look at his emotional side.

The Marines were not spectators during the breakout battle, and would go to the enemy ships to engage in broadside battles when necessary. Liao Fan, who had seen a broadside battle, felt that the danger faced by the man and bear was no less than his own, and maybe it was a little more dangerous.

Looking at the back of the man and bear leaving, there is a feeling of watching his family go to the battlefield. He prayed in his heart to the gods who knew and didn't know, hoping that his friend would survive the battle.
