Although it is in a parallel world, the so-called "promotion to lieutenant general of the aviation army" is also quite a novelty for Long Yun.

But seriously, he also feels that this promotion is a little abrupt - after all, the shape of the Southern Theater is still very serious at the moment, and the offensive momentum of the Americans has not diminished in the slightest, even if he did make outstanding contributions in the battle, it is still a little too early to talk about meritorious deeds. And in addition, he also has a trace of doubt, that is, although he, or Viktor Rezenov, has become the number one ace of the Red Air Force and has always been a top performer, but is it too much to praise and promote him?

Leaving aside the fact that General Secretary Konstantin Malenkov, who was busy for the time being, not only made a phone call and chatted with him for a while tonight, but also revealed to him in advance about his promotion; Why did the supreme leader of the Red Empire, who was in a hurry, pay so much attention to Victor?

- Oh, looking at the current appearance, Long Yun felt that this general secretary was not only concerned, but also had some appreciation and value, which made him quite puzzled.

However, the thoughts in his heart were surging, and Long Yun responded very neatly, which was also his true thought all along:

"In my opinion, military rank carries more than just honor, but also more responsibility. Therefore, personally, I hope to continue to fight side by side with my comrades-in-arms and open up a new situation in the Southern Theater in one fell swoop; In this way, we will be qualified to accept personal arrangements calmly, Comrade General Secretary. ”

"Oh...... That's a good idea, boy! ”

Hearing Viktor's words that seemed to be a refusal, but also seemed to be an oath, Malenkov pondered for a moment, and then laughed on the phone. "Yes. What a man who was born for war. Your words. I remember that the Americans are quite in the Caucasus right now, and it's up to you how you open up the situation; I look forward to seeing you again, in the columned hall of the Supreme Soviet Building! ”

"Understood, Comrade General Secretary! - We will do our best. ”

Hearing Victor's powerful response and nodding silently on the other end of the phone, a subtle change in the general secretary's face appeared. There was also a little more concern in his tone:

"The battle must be fought fiercely, and it must be carefully planned. I said, Viktor, I will take this opportunity to nag a few more words: you must know this, you are now the spiritual pillar of the Red Air Force, and an indispensable defender of the Soviet Union...... In short, one cannot be forced, and all affairs must be cautious; Do you understand that only by surviving the war can you better fight the enemy? ”

"Understood! - 'Save yourself, destroy the enemy', I remembered. ”

I heard the concern in the general secretary's tone. Long Yun quickly remembered such a summary of Grandpa Mao's military thoughts, although the wars in this world are endless, and it is not clear who first thought of this wise sentence that summarizes the essence of war. But he himself agrees.

There are many things that are familiar to ordinary people, such as the so-called "war is a bloody political * rule, and political * rule is a bloodless war", but such a sentence may be of profound significance, but it has no guiding value for soldiers fighting on the front line. From the moment they took up arms and went to the battlefield, "victory or perdition" became the central question faced by every participant in the war; There may never be a perfect answer to this question, but "preserving oneself and destroying the enemy" can be said to be an important criterion for measuring the value of military operations.

Having experienced battles in parallel worlds, Long Yun's feelings for such a sentence were naturally extremely profound.

On the other end of the phone, hearing Viktor's concise acronym and feeling that this creed was a little déjà vu, Malenkov laughed happily, "Very good, then I'll rest assured!" You are an expert in front-line operations, so I won't say much about it. Rest early, Victor! ”

"Understood, Comrade General Secretary! Please don't get too busy with your official duties and make sure you have a rest. ”

Hearing Malenkov's instructions, Long Yun also responded, wondering if this would end a conversation; However, just as he was holding the earpiece and preparing to say goodbye to the general secretary, Malenkov's greeting came from inside:

"Well...... Victor, are you still there? ”

"I-I'm here, what other instructions do you have?"

"Oh, of course instructions can't be talked about,"

Malenkov on the phone, whose calm and resolute voice just now seemed to have a rare hint of gentleness:

"Just a casual conversation with you about life. I recently learned that 'Lyudmila Pavlyuchenko' is the famous singer from Moscow, and the two of you are in love, aren't you? - Well, there is no way to fight a war normally, but when you have time to go back to Moscow, remember to spend more time with your lover. ”

“……？”

Suddenly, hearing Malenkov talk about this matter, Long Yun was a little dazed for a while; Although he has the superpower of snooping consciously, he is just talking to the general secretary on the phone, and he naturally doesn't know what the general secretary's words are, but he just subconsciously responds vaguely, "En...... Understood, I'll pay attention to the arrangement. ”

"Okay. So—goodbye, Victor! ”

"Goodbye, Comrade General Secretary!"

After saying goodbye to Malenkov, Long Yun, who hung up the phone, slowly walked out of the communication room.

Along the way, he walked slowly, thinking and walking, and when he returned to the dormitory, it was already late at night, he washed and changed clothes lightly, climbed into bed, and looked up at the ceiling in the dark; Although I am very sleepy now, my head is still full of thoughts.

On the phone call before, I heard General Secretary Malenkov say that he would "be promoted to lieutenant general of the aviation corps", which was not bad for Long Yun, who was a traverser, and originally he was not fighting in this parallel world for rank and fame; However, thinking that at the end of the call, the general secretary reminded him unexpectedly and asked him to "spend more time with his lover", which made Long Yun a little confused.

This kind of trivial matter of spending money before and after the moon and in the parents, will also make the general secretary so concerned?

For this unusual detail, Long Yun thought for a moment, but couldn't think of any reason, so he didn't dwell on it for too long; Clarifying the complicated clues in his mind one by one, he felt that it was okay to say about Liuda or Sophia, and the most important thing now was to repel the NATO offensive in the Caucasus theater, and then to continue the secret investigation of the "energy media" and "dead city" as much as possible.

With such thoughts, and at the same time felt a burst of tiredness hit, he subconsciously turned over, and the girl who fell asleep next to him got a little closer, and before he really fell asleep, he kept thinking, now is it time to end the crossing, temporarily return to reality, right?

After all, there are a lot of things going on in the parallel world, and there are a lot of things to be busy in the real world.
