033. Eviction

Zhao Yu was really stunned for the first time.

Go home?

That's right, when I was looking for a glimmer of life in the United States, it was indeed my greatest wish to return home alive one day. But he never expected that he would really regain consciousness and be alive one day, let alone that this day would be a hundred years later. What's even more ironic is that the place where he has lived for the longest time has nothing to do with him, and the living people he still knows now all live on the North American continent.

In the past few months since he woke up, he has also thought about his hometown, but it was his hometown more than a hundred years ago, and it is a memory that he can never go back to. Go home? Maybe you can go back to the city where you have lived for 20 years, and even find the street where you once lived, but is it still the same thing as the place you remember?

Relatives, friends, classmates, neighbors - no one you know is gone.

The furnishings of the house, the books I like, the games I indulged in, the restaurant I loved - nothing has survived.

Is it really a home to go back to the place with the same name as you remember?

If you go back there and you can't find yourself at home, where are you going?

"That, Mr. Zhao Yu?" Wang Feng coughed, "Are you okay?" ”

Zhao Yu was stunned and came back to his senses: "I'm sorry, I'm distracted." ”

"I understand that many people in the old era have similar reactions, after all, the old era is very different from the present, and it is normal to be undecided."

"Well, that's what I meant." Zhao Yu scratched his head in annoyance, "I haven't thought about it yet." ”

"It doesn't matter, if you want to go back to Asia, you can do it at any time, and the door of the motherland is open for you at any time." Wang Feng paused when he said this, "But there is one more thing to emphasize...... Even if you don't want to go back for a while, it's best to leave the city of Wide and leave the army. This is the front line, and the probability of casualties is still very high. ”

"Leaving the army?"

"I have confirmed that you originally belonged to the Seventh Theater of the West Coast Republic, although you have now entered the Fifth Theater sequence, but you have not been assigned to a combat unit, in this case, you can apply for retirement at any time, and the West Coast National Guard has no right to refuse." When Wang Feng said this, his voice lowered a little, "Let me tell you in private, we are not optimistic about this war...... The West Coast Republic may not last long, and the mutiny in the Seventh Theater is just a prelude, but it could also be the beginning of a domino effect, and the defense line is likely to collapse faster than our most pessimistic expectations. ”

Zhao Yu was taken aback: "It's just that you lost a war zone, and you can't support it right away?" ”

"No matter how the WPA assists, after all, it is separated by a Pacific Ocean, because the existence of inhibition particles cannot even be achieved by air, the efficiency of transporting materials is actually very low, it is okay in peacetime, it is difficult to catch up with demand in wartime, and the coalition army has the upper hand from the beginning in terms of resources, manpower, transportation and other aspects, and it is a miracle that the West Coast Republic has survived in this war until now, and this is not a gap that can be made up with courage and fighting spirit." Wang Feng looked out the window, "Don't underestimate the impact of the surrender of the Seventh War Zone, it is a front-line war zone, the West Coast Republic has invested most of its resources in the front line, and this time these resources have been sent to the enemy, it is inevitable that the vitality will be greatly damaged, you understand...... The Fifth Theater has not been directly involved in the war before, and exists as the rear of the West Coast Republic, but now the war will soon burn in, and it will be dangerous for you to remain in the army. ”

Zhao Yu didn't care about this: "West Coast Republic...... Is it going to be defeated? Is it going to destroy the country? ”

"Defeat is almost inevitable, but the destruction of the country is not necessarily." Wang Feng showed a disapproving expression, "The biggest possibility is that the West Coast government will cede the North American continent and retreat to the Hawaiian Islands, the first war zone. We believe this is the bottom line that is acceptable to the Coalition Army. ”

Zhao Yu didn't speak for a while.

I finally fought until now, but I found that the overall situation was decided and there was no way to recover...... So what's the point of all this I'm doing? So many soldiers who died in battle, did they only get defeat after paying with their lives?

Wang Feng stood up and patted Zhao Yu lightly on the shoulder: "Don't be too sad, on this planet, wars that are darker, more desperate, and sadder than the North American battlefield have happened countless times. If you find it really hard to accept, you can think about it, this is all for the sake of the eventual survival of the earth's civilization. ”

"Is this the only way?"

"We're trying other ways as well, but so far, war is still essential."

Seeing that Zhao Yu was still a little dazed, Wang Feng coughed lightly: "If you haven't decided, think about it again, Yoko and I will leave Weide City at three o'clock this afternoon, if you make a decision after this, you will have to go to San Francisco, where there will be a ship to Hawaii every week, as long as you prove your WPA citizenship to the dock, your information has been filed, so don't worry - of course, I suggest that if you want to leave, it's best to get involved in the war as soon as possible, the entire Fifth War Zone is involved in the war, It was only a matter of time before they were besieged by the overwhelmingly superior coalition forces, and when the time came, even the WPA status was estimated to have to queue up on board. ”

"I'll think about it again." Zhao Yu replied.

Wang Feng nodded and walked out of the room.

Zhao Yu was stunned for a few more minutes before finally letting out a long sigh.

He stood up and left the town hall.

The streets were still bustling with people, heavy chariots roaring by, mechs and infantry passing by in formations, and a handful of people dressed in ordinary citizen clothes flashing around the corners, like a drop of ink dripping into a pool of water that would not make any difference.

The city of Weide has been completely turned into a military camp, and according to Wang Feng, it will soon become a battlefield, and the defenders have almost no chance of victory.

So what's the point of staying here, can becoming a dead person prove that you have existed? Even if you have an extra plug-in on your body now, can you guarantee that you will survive this kind of battlefield to the end?

Raymond Martin is still dead.

"Yo, old man, are you back?" Hunter's voice came from above, and Zhao Yu was shocked to realize that he had unconsciously walked back to the barracks dormitory, Hunter was leaning on the railing on the second floor, holding a can of beer in his hand, and when he saw Zhao Yu looking up, he threw a can down, "I must say, the wine here is not bad." ”

Zhao Yu was not as repulsive to beer as he was to cigarettes, so he opened it and poured two sips, but he could only shrug his shoulders: "Hunter, how long have you not drunk beer?" ”

"Ah, I forgot, I haven't drunk since I got into the sergeant's car......"

At this time, Zhao Yu had already turned to the second floor: "What about the commander?" ”

"I went to the headquarters of the 601 Mecha Regiment, you know that he can't be idle." Hunter said and took a sip of wine, "Where have you been, old man?" I don't remember you having acquaintances here. ”

"City Hall, the WPA guys are looking for me." Zhao Yu hesitated for a moment, but still said, "They persuaded me to leave Weide City, this place is about to become a battlefield." ”

Hunter didn't even blink an eye: "Oh, that's big news, I bet I'm the only one in the city who doesn't know about it." ”

"We've just escaped from the Seventh War Zone, can you be a little more emotional?"

Hunter laughed and threw the beer can into the trash bin next to him, reached out and took another can, and raised the wine can towards Zhao Yu: "Old man, we are soldiers, and war is our destiny." We're not like you, you've only been in this era for less than a year, and we were born knowing what we're going to face, so don't worry, everyone here is ready. ”

Zhao Yu smiled bitterly: "It seems that I am the only one who is not in tune." ”

"I envy your incompatibility." Borg, who didn't know when he appeared in the hallway, walked towards the two men, "It means that you were in a carefree era - of course, old man, you may not be carefree yourself, but most ordinary people in your time can enjoy peace, no war, no death countdown, no flight limits, and your imagination can run wild to the end of the universe without worrying about a terrifying supernova popping up somewhere while looking up at the stars...... To be honest, I'm a little jealous. ”

Zhao Yu looked at him: "Commander, please withdraw your middle finger, I have fully understood what you mean." ”

"Alright, old man, are all the formalities on the WPA side done?" Borg also picked up a can of beer and pointed to the dormitory door, "Now hurry up and pack my things and get back to Asia, don't be an eyesore here." ”

"Commander, you know everything?"

"Nonsense, you're a citizen of the WPA, can the WPA have anything else to do with you? They take good care of their own people! Borg made a chaser gesture, "Or are they just trying to treat you to dinner?" ”

Zhao Yu could only nod and admit: "That's right, the people from WPA asked me if I wanted to quit the army, and they could arrange for me to go back to Asia immediately." ”

"So what are you doing here?"

"But I didn't say yes right away......"

Borg's eyes widened, and he tilted his head in front of Zhao Yu: "Old man, are you really so old that your mind is confused?" Do you know how many people want to escape the continent but can't find a way? What are you going to do here? Think you can turn the tide of battle on your own? Or do you think it's worth dying here? ”

"There are no heroes here, and there is no need for heroes." Hunter answered, "Old man, I think you should go home, too." ”

Zhao Yu rolled his eyes: "You are really my good comrades-in-arms, you are going to drive me away after only a day of rest?" ”

"No, I didn't mean to drive you away." A dangerous smile appeared on Borg's face, and Zhao Yu's heart tightened - the commander's expression usually meant that he had some bad ideas, "Actually, I've already driven you away." ”

"What?!"

"I've just submitted a list of crew members to the 601 Mech Regiment," Borg said, "and I'll be able to get a new MF1 as soon as this afternoon, and then I'll be able to get back into the ranks." ”

"A new Deathbringer." Hunter grunted.

"But you're not on the membership list." Borg poked Zhao Yu in the chest, "I talked to Private Ethan Paxton, and he would love to be my co-pilot. ”

Zhao Yu stared at Borg, and in the end, a thousand words could only be combined into one sentence: "Commander, you are such a bastard." ”

"You've known that for a long time, haven't you?"
