Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Immortal
A large battleship with a length of more than 10,000 meters slowly approached and stopped in front of the "Shadow".
"These guys are coming pretty fast."
Lin Feng held Yang Yi's hand and said in a low voice: "That's the 'Steel Ambition', the flagship of the Third War Zone, and Grandpa rushed here after receiving the news." ”
Yang Yi was slightly stunned and didn't talk nonsense.
Although Yang Yi, like all grassroots officers and soldiers, has an instinctive resistance to the high-ranking generals, Lin Xiaoting is Lin Feng's grandfather, no matter how presumptuous Yang Yi is, he doesn't dare to say bad things about Lin Xiaoting in front of Lin Feng, even if he just complains.
"Wait to see grandpa, do your part, shut your mouth."
"Understood. You let me speak, and I speak. If you don't let me speak, even if you kill me, you won't say anything. ”
"It's still poor."
Yang Yi smiled and gently squeezed Lin Feng's little hand.
Lin Feng glanced at Yang Yi, but did not retract his hand.
On the secret related to life and death, Yang Yi chose to trust Lin Feng. As it turned out, he was not wrong in his choice. Although the two have only known each other for a few days, after experiencing the battle and escape of life and death, the relationship between the two has changed qualitatively, and it is unbreakable.
When the airlock opened and the general walked in, Lin Feng and Yang Yi's hands were still tightly clasped together.
It's a small move, but the meaning is clear. Yang Yi knew that Lin Feng was telling Lin Xiaoting in this way that she had fallen in love with the man next to her, and was willing to live with this man for the rest of her life, and would never be shaken by her family's opposition.
Feeling Lin Feng's true feelings, Yang Yi couldn't help but clench the Qianqianyu hand.
Since life and death are shared, we will never give up.
As he walked over, the general's gaze swept over the two of them, and a smile appeared immediately.
"Uncle Seven...... General Lin! ”
Uncle Seven!? Yang Yi glanced at the general carefully. is a major general, and he is a middle-aged man from his appearance, but judging his age from his appearance is very unreliable.
"Xiaofeng, you girl......" The middle-aged man glanced at Yang Yi meaningfully, and shook his head with a smile.
At this time, Lin Fengcai retracted his hand, and his face was flushed, looking embarrassed.
"Hello General Lin!"
The major general just nodded slightly and did not greet Yang Yi.
"Yang Yi, second lieutenant officer of the Special Investigation Brigade. However, when you go back, you can get promoted. Lin Feng deliberately added a sentence to improve Yang Yi's status.
"Yes, he was a second lieutenant at the age of eighteen, and he was promoted on his first mission."
"Seventh Uncle......
"Let's go, come back with me." The major general took his eyes off Yang Yi and said to Lin Feng, "The old man cares about you very much, let me personally take you back." If there's anything, go tell the old man. Uncle Seven loves you, but Uncle Seven doesn't have much say in this matter. ”
Lin Feng nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
Yang Yi was stunned, not knowing what kind of dumb riddle the uncle and nephew were playing. It was inconvenient for Yang Yi to ask more, so he had to follow behind the two honestly.
The Steel Ambition is an S-class battleship and the third ship to bear this name. The first "Iron Ambition" was built 1,500 years ago and was a great success in the Fourth Greenwich War, but it was decommissioned and dismantled shortly after the war because of its age. The second "Iron Ambition" was built during the Fifth Greenwich War and served as the flagship of the Third Theater, participating in hundreds of battles and battles, large and small, and making great contributions. After the war, Zhan Ruilin personally ordered that "Steel Ambition" be the exclusive name of the flagship of the Third War Zone. It is in this way that after the decommissioning of the second "Steel Ambition", the third "Steel Ambition" was born.
Although it is several laps smaller than the Third Fleet's "Bloody Battle", the "Iron Ambition" is still a giant ship.
Boarding the "Iron Ambition", the rear admiral left the two and left alone.
"He is my seventh uncle Lin Liexun, among all the elders, he loves me the most and spoils me the most." Lin Feng smiled faintly and said, "Uncle Seventh is not married and has no children, and he has always treated me as a daughter. I heard that when Uncle Seven was young, he was very similar to me. ”
"What do you mean?"
"I don't want to listen to my family's arrangement, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten married until now."
Yang Yi was slightly stunned, and said with a smile: "Obviously, this is also the reason why he loves you." ”
"Maybe." Lin Feng sighed and said, "Let's go, I'll take you on a tour." Although the "Iron Ambition" is only an S-class battleship, not as good as the "Bloody War" of the Third Fleet, it is by no means less advanced than the "Bloody War", and in terms of combat power, it even surpasses the "Bloody War". ”
"More than SS-class ships?"
"The 'Blood War' was built more than 100 years ago, and the 'Iron Ambition' was built three years ago and was officially incorporated into the Third War Zone last year. More than 100 years ago, the technology used on the Blood War was outdated. Besides, the "Iron Ambition" is the flagship of the Third Theater of Operations, and the "Bloody Battle" is only the flagship of the Third Fleet. With the relationship between the theater and the fleet, the status of the "Iron Ambition" is still above the "Bloody War". ”
As soon as Lin Feng said this, Yang Yi understood.
The Third Fleet is subordinate to the Third Theater of Operations, and the status of the theater flagship is naturally above that of the fleet flagship.
Lin Feng took Yang Yi around the battleship, which opened Yang Yi's eyes. In fact, Lin Feng also wanted to take this opportunity to let Yang Yi gain more knowledge.
Yang Yi did gain insight and discovered the secret of the "Steel Ambition".
This battleship was built by the third theater of war at its own expense, and was designed according to the standard of the SS class, because the human federation is a sixth-class civilization within the Galactic Alliance, so the construction standard was lowered. According to the regulations of the Galactic Alliance, the military strength of a civilization is directly linked to the level of civilization, and among the many criteria that determine military strength, the level and number of warships are the number one indicator. A sixth-tier civilization can only have a maximum of ten SS-class warships.
The Human Federation has nine theaters, and each of the nine theaters has an SS-class warship.
Although there is still a quota for one SS-class battleship, it does not belong to the 3rd theater of operations, but is in the hands of the federal authorities.
"It costs a lot of money to build an SS-class battleship, especially the SS-class Origin Energy Converter that drives the battleship, which can only be purchased from the seven top civilizations." Lin Feng sighed, "A thousand years of peace and prosperity are like a chronic poison that makes people forget the threat that is just around the corner. In order to curry favor with voters, federal politicians were reluctant to spend a penny on military construction, so they did not start the construction of new warships after the decommissioning of the "Federal Star". ”
"In that case, why not give the quota to the war zone?"
"To which war zone?" Lin Feng smiled bitterly. "No matter which theater of war, after having the second SS-class battleship, the strength will surpass that of other theaters and break the existing pattern. Nominally, the nine theaters were subordinate to the federal authorities and were an integral part of the human federation, but after the Fifth Greenwich War, the nine theaters were all independent, and the federal authorities only had nominal jurisdiction. This situation has been maintained for a thousand years, and no one wants to break the current situation without triggering large-scale civil unrest. Lin Shuai once said that if the Human Federation remained the same, after the outbreak of the Sixth Greenwich War, even if Generalissimo Xiao Wentian was reborn, he would not be able to turn the tide. ”
"Generalissimo Xiao Wentian......"
"You don't even know that Generalissimo Xiao Wentian, do you?"
"How is it possible, it's just that Lin Shuai is too full of words." Yang Yi smiled awkwardly. In the Human Federation, no one knows Xiao Wentian.
At the beginning of the Fifth Greenwich War, the Galactic Alliance was defeated, and the Human Federation was no exception. In just fifty years, he lost all of his colonized planets and was forced to retreat to his home system. When the Silicon Charm Alliance's soldiers were overwhelmed, no one believed that if they could defend their home galaxy, humanity would be wiped out like other nearby civilizations. At that time, the rich, powerful, and powerful people rushed to flee their home galaxy and seek refuge in higher civilizations. It was at this time that Xiao Wentian, who was still a major general at the time, stood up and took over the garrison of the home galaxy, leading a hundred legions to station on the lighthouse star, and blocking the invading Silicon Charm army here.
The offensive and defensive battle of the Lighthouse Star lasted for twenty years, and Xiao Wentian also held on here for twenty years.
Although Xiao Wentian failed to hold out until the moment of victory and was martyred in the final battle, countless generals were born in the hundred legions he brought, and the commanders of the nine theaters, including Zhan Ruilin, became famous in this battle. It is precisely because of this that after Zhan Ruilin and other commanders of the nine theaters were awarded the rank of marshal, the nine people jointly signed a joint name and asked the federal authorities to posthumously award Xiao Wentian as the generalissimo of the Federation.
Xiao Wentian was the only generalissimo of the Fifth Greenwich War and the second generalissimo of the Third Age.
"When I was a child, my grandfather, father and seventh uncle often told me about the deeds of Generalissimo Xiao Wentian, and lamented that he was not born in that era." Looking at the starry sky outside the porthole, Lin Feng sighed. "At the time, I couldn't understand why they were lamenting. It wasn't until I joined the Special Detective Brigade that I understood how they felt. For a soldier, born in the era of Generalissimo Xiao Wentian, it is a great honor to follow the generalissimo to fight in the starry sky. ”
"I don't see it that way."
Lin Feng was slightly stunned and looked at Yang Yi.
"For a soldier, it is a great honor to follow the generalissimo, start his own era, and leave a strong mark in the vast chapter of history."
Yang Yi said this sentence with confidence.
Looking at Yang Yi standing beside him, Lin Feng couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Yang Yi's arrogance, as well as his tone and demeanor when he said this, did not look like a second lieutenant officer at all, but more like a general commanding thousands of troops.
Could it be that he is an immortal like Xiao Wentian!?
As long as you can follow him to the stars, accompany him to the pinnacle of glory, and become his lifelong companion, what kind of pain and suffering is not worth mentioning.
Lin Feng believes that Yang Yi is the man who is worth everything for her.
