Chapter 239: Bearing the Burden

With Jackson's order, dozens of independent legions withdrew from the battlefield in an orderly manner under the orders of Mendozo and other elders, and only a few independent soldiers stayed behind to assist the human soldiers in cleaning up the battlefield, mainly to deal with those silicon warriors who had not yet lost their breath. Of course, it also assists human soldiers in collecting loot. Don't forget, in the Special Station Brigade, it is not necessary to confiscate the captured loot.

In fact, Jackson didn't want to lead the Dumen Legion to evacuate at this time, because he also knew that Yang Yi was in danger, and he also wanted to stay and assist Yang Yi. It's just that Jackson also knows that even if all of them stay, they may not be able to let Yang Yi get out of danger.

It's not that Jackson isn't confident enough, it's that Dibab is just too strong.

When discussing combat operations with Yang Yi, Jackson raised the issue that all of them were not opponents of the top battle kings together.

Although Yang Yi didn't believe it at the time, Jackson didn't say anything.

Before meeting Yang Yi, Jackson led the "Warrior Army" to go deep into the northern region of the Greenwich meteorite belt many times, and even went to the North Alpha system. Although I haven't met a top war king like Dibabu, I have met some friends who don't like war so much, and it's not wrong to say that they are business partners. Through these businessmen of the Silicon Charm Alliance, Jackson has a more comprehensive understanding of the top battle kings.

In the Silicon Charm Alliance, the top war king is the supreme existence.

Although the strongest existence in the Silicon Charm Alliance is the War Emperor, for almost all silicon-based intelligent civilizations, the War Emperor is only a vague concept. The reason is very simple, even during the all-out war with the Galactic Alliance, the War Emperor rarely directly manages the Silicon Charm Alliance, but exercises the right to rule through the War King below. In fact, even in the Silicon Charm Alliance, whether the War Emperor really exists is also questioned.

Arguably. The status of the eight top war kings in the Silicon Charm Alliance is equivalent to the status of the Wanluo War Emperor, the Heavenly Saint Emperor, and the Star Soul Empress in the Galactic Alliance. Although the combat power of the top war king is far inferior to that of super powerhouses such as Wanluo War Emperor, it is definitely not comparable to ordinary soldiers.

In fact, no one doubted that the combat power of the top war king was above that of the Earth Soul Warriors.

Don't forget, according to the level of combat power, the definition of "Human Warrior", "Earth Soul Warrior" and "Heavenly Warrior" is the Human Federation. And not the top civilization of the Galactic Alliance. Obviously, the combat power of human beings is not strong in the first place, so compared to the top civilization of the Galactic Alliance, the strong in the eyes of human beings is nothing. The most powerful proof is that in the Fifth Greenwich War, only Xiao Wentian fought against the super powerhouses of the Silicon Charm Alliance. After Xiao Wentian, even Zhan Ruilin, who has the strongest combat power, does not have such a chance. In other words, the human Earth Soul Warrior has never dueled with the top war king of the Silicon Charm Alliance, and the combat power of the two is only the result of indirect comparison. Therefore, no one knows, no one can tell, no one can make up their minds.

It is said that the Earth Soul Warrior is on par with the top Battle King, mainly because both rely on SS-level origin energy converters.

Clearly, this contrast ignores a crucial issue. That is, the vitality of silicon-based creatures is inherently stronger than that of carbon-based creatures, and the War King has an almost infinite lifespan, and the top War King has lived for more than a thousand years. Some have even existed for more than 2,000 years, and the strongest earth soul warriors in the human race. That is, Zhan Ruilin, has a lifespan of more than 1,500 years, and it is already very old.

In addition, Xiao Wentian's use of the strength of the Tianyu warrior to fight against the Emperor of the Silicon Charm Alliance was also an important basis.

The question is, how strong is Xiao Wentian. Nobody knows.

If Xiao Wentian's combat power has surpassed that of the Heavenly Domain Warriors and is a more powerful existence, then the combat power of the War Emperor will definitely be above the Heavenly Domain Warriors.

All in all, the combat power of the top war king is definitely not blown out, but fought on the battlefield.

Exactly. Jackson thought Yang Yi's plan was too risky.

It's a pity that although Jackson tried his best to oppose and dissuade, he couldn't make Yang Yi change his mind. Of course, Jackson knew Yang Yi very well, and he also knew that the method proposed by Yang Yi was the only way to rescue Shen Chengwen and defeat the Silicon Charm army, and there was no second way to go.

In the end, it was not Yang Yi who was convinced, but Jackson.

In addition, there was one thing that Jackson did not tell Shen Chengwen. It's not that he can't tell Shen Chengwen, but it's not time.

Although he made up his mind and did not listen to Jackson's advice, Yang Yi did not doubt Jackson and listened to Jackson's advice. As a result, Yang Yi made arrangements for what happened after his death. According to Yang Yi's deployment, it was not Lin Feng who replaced him, but Shen Chengwen. It's not that Lin Feng is not qualified enough, but Yang Yi knows that Lin Feng will never leave him, and if he must die at the hands of Di Babu, Lin Feng will go to Huangquan with him. For this reason, Yang Yi specially told Jackson that he should leave the battlefield with Shen Chengwen no matter what, and as long as Shen Chengwen was okay, he would be the commander. As for whether to continue to stay and assist the Dumen clan, that was Shen Chengwen's decision.

Jackson has no objection to this.

Although he is also a colonel, in terms of qualifications, Jackson is far inferior to Shen Chengwen. In addition, most of the soldiers who followed Yang Yi to Green Star were officers and soldiers of the strategic squadron, and Jackson's men were only a small part. What's more, if Yang Yi has any mistakes, Jackson has no reason to stay in the special investigation team. It was clear that Jackson had taken over the baton and had little enthusiasm to continue the cause that Yang Yi had worked so hard for.

It was precisely because of Yang Yi's entrustment that Jackson stayed in the rear to command the battle of the Dumen Army, and did not go forward to assist Yang Yi in dealing with Di Babu and those top generals.

In fact, only Jackson knew Yang Yi's overall plan, and even Lin Feng only knew part of it.

It's not that Yang Yi doesn't trust other people, but he can't tell others, especially Lin Feng, because as long as he knows that he is ready for self-sacrifice, other officers and soldiers will not agree. Although as the only person in the know, Jackson knew that Yang Yi trusted and valued him the most, but he was not happy at all. It's not just trust, it's trust, a heavy burden, and it's a heavy burden of blame.

It can be said that by the time the retreat was ordered, Jackson was already disheartened.

As the last of the Dumen Legion was withdrawn from the battlefield, Jackson gave Mendozo some orders, and left with Shen Chengwen and the other soldiers.

Jackson didn't look back, and he didn't dare to look back.

Thinking of Yang Yi facing Di Babu alone, thinking of Yang Yi's determination to die, Jackson knew that as long as he looked back, he would lose control.

For Jackson, Yang Yi is not only a life-saving benefactor, but also a gift of knowledge.

Although before meeting Yang Yi, Jackson was already well-known in the mercenary world, and his "Warrior Army" was also famous, but Jackson did not want to do this profession for the rest of his life, like all mercenaries, Jackson hopes to be recognized by more people one day. In other words, in my lifetime, I can do something that I am proud enough and proud enough to look back on in the future and feel that this life was not in vain.

Yang Yi gave Jackson this opportunity and let Jackson find the value of existence.

Jackson's feelings for Yang Yi are not only the loyalty of his subordinates to their superiors, but also the friendship between brothers, the kind of friendship tempered by war and life and death. Although he is Yang Yi's subordinate, in many cases, Jackson regards himself as Yang Yi's brother, a brother who can provide him with valuable advice, a brother who can help him solve problems, and a brother who can fight side by side with him.

It's just that now, Jackson had to leave Yang Yi behind and leave the battlefield with the Dumen Army.

For other people, the same mood is at this time.

Between reason and emotion, Jackson had to make a decision, and it was a wise decision, and he had to suppress the surging emotions.

It's like being tormented in a frying pan.

Of course, Jackson didn't do nothing, but did what he could, and made the most important sacrifice that he had no choice but to make.

Don't let me down, Justin!

Thinking of this, Jackson's eyes moistened.

After being unable to change Yang Yi's decision, Jackson found Justin and told Justin about Yang Yi's thoughts. Although he didn't say it explicitly, Justin understood what he meant, and immediately agreed. Jackson had to carry the burden, but Justin did not have such a burden.

Jackson can't stay and fight alongside Yang Yi, but Justin can.

Of course, Jackson didn't tell Yang Yi about this, because he knew that Yang Yi would not only not agree, but would also order Justin to evacuate.

According to Jackson's arrangement, after Justin led his soldiers to attack the enemy's spaceship, he had to return to the battlefield and do his best to assist Yang Yi, even if it was self-sacrifice, to let Yang Yi come back alive. Justin also made a promise that even if he died, he would die in front of Yang Yi.

For Jackson, it was the greatest pain.

Justin is his lover and the only woman he cares about in his life. It was for Justin that he ventured into the space fragments of the "Kuhn-Barleon Fortress", and thus met Yang Yi, and established an unbreakable friendship and mutual trust with Yang Yi.

If he could, Jackson was willing to sacrifice himself and didn't want Justin to be hurt in the slightest.

It's just that Jackson has no other choice.

All he could do was to follow Yang Yi's footsteps and reunite with Justin under Jiuquan after the irreversible disaster occurred, after he completed Yang Yi's entrustment.

That's Jackson's assurance, the only guarantee he can make to Justin.

What's the point of living without a loved one?

Jackson's heart was heavy, and it was completely visible to anyone. It's just that at this moment, no one is in a happy mood, and no one can guess Jackson's thoughts. Even Shen Chengwen only felt that Jackson was depressed because he had to obey orders and lead the legion to evacuate the battlefield. For any soldier with a sense of honor, he will feel depressed about leaving his comrades. (To be continued......)
