Chapter 591: The Eight Star Spaceship
"Urgent gathering! Urgent gathering! All personnel arrive at their respective posts within five minutes, and those who fail to meet the deadline will be killed on the spot! ”
Still asleep, Russo was awakened by the harsh emergency assembly order. Although Russo was only one of the thirty cooks who served the roughly 3,000 soldiers serving on the city-level ship, and although he was not a combatant, he did not dare to disobey the order.
Since the order says that it is all personnel, then it is all personnel. Even the cleaning staff in charge of sanitation and the staff responsible for maintaining the entertainment facilities must be at their posts within the stipulated time.
Russo had long been accustomed to such an emergency assembly order. Over the past few decades, since the destruction of the Deathflower Galaxy's stars and the flight of the entire Alliance, such emergency gatherings have become more frequent. The order after the emergency assembly is generally the same, that is, they quickly came to their respective jobs, controlled their "Eight Star" municipal spaceship, and set off to fight with the "Splendid" provincial spaceship, the flagship of the team, but some time ago, the Brilliant provincial spaceship was killed by the Shenzhou civilization, so their squad flagship spaceship was replaced by the "Edge" provincial spacecraft.
"Is there any urgent task again?" Russo muttered to himself, quickly putting on his clothes and equipment, and made his way to the back room, quickly standing in front of his post. Before him, several chefs with the same duties as him had already arrived.
Outside, there was a constant thump of limbs touching the ground. Russo knew it was the sound of soldiers running urgently.
"I don't know what the task is again this time. Some time ago, didn't we already receive an order, because the Shenzhou civilization carried a star over to detonate it, so let us all hide behind the Planet 8 battle star? Russo asked his colleague a little strangely.
The spirit of the colleague was a little sluggish. This is quite a normal thing, in fact. Most people aren't in good spirits right now. Because they received an order to hide and rest the day before yesterday, most of the staff thought that there would be nothing to do in the near future, so they all went out to indulge. Of course, even if it is indulgent, it is not allowed to leave the spaceship, anyway, on the spaceship, all kinds of entertainment facilities are readily available. So there is less time to rest, so at this time, they are not in good spirits.
"I don't know, it's probably some training and transportation or escort missions." The colleague replied listlessly.
This speculation is quite reasonable. Since the Shenzhou civilization has increased its attack on the alliance, warships are sometimes used for material transportation tasks between different planets, and some warships will be dispatched to escort ordinary civilian spaceships.
"Perhaps." Russo replied, but his heart was a little uneasy.
As usual, the task is scheduled after the emergency assembly. It was soon transmitted to the minds of each individual through the personal communication terminal. At the same time, it was conveyed. There is also a penalty message. An unlucky ghost was summarily executed by the supervising team because he played too late the day before yesterday and drank too many narcotic drinks, and did not arrive at his post within five minutes.
If it had been before, there would have been a lot of discussion about the punishment of this unlucky ghost, but now there is none. Because of the hearts of all. Everyone was attracted to that order, including Russo.
"All the combatants adjust to their status for 20 minutes, and the logistics staff prepare breakfast within 20 minutes, and eat starts after 20 minutes. Dining time is 10 minutes. Ten minutes later. Follow the Edgeship and go to meet the invading fleet of the Shenzhou civilization. ”
This order made everyone's hearts chuckle. Russo almost reflexively wanted to ask: "The explosion of the star carried by the Shenzhou civilization is imminent, leaving the cover of the planetary battle star at this time, isn't this going to die?" ”
But Russo didn't ask the question. Years in the military made Russo understand that anyone who questioned Shangguan's decision would be killed on the spot. But the fear in my heart spread uncontrollably. Russo looked at his colleague, and he found that his colleague, who had been depressed a moment ago, immediately became nervous after hearing this order.
Russo was waiting for the next message from Shangguan, that is, waiting for Shangguan to explain the order. But Russo waited a long time, but did not hear any explanation.
The order is simple and at the same time heavy.
Finally, someone couldn't stand it anymore, and in the public communication channel, a soldier couldn't help but ask: "The star explosion is imminent, let's go out on a mission at this time, isn't this sending us to death?" ”
"This kid is in danger." Russo thought to himself, "The Overseers will execute him soon." ”
Russo couldn't help but feel a little admiration and sympathy for this kid who dared to question Shangguan, and at the same time a little grateful to this kid, because this kid asked what he had always wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask.
However, unexpectedly, Russo waited for a long time, but the announcement about the execution of the soldiers by the supervision team was never issued, but unexpectedly waited for the Shangguan's explanation for this.
Shangguan's explanation was also very concise: "First, the Shenzhou civilization took advantage of the loopholes in our defense line and sent a large number of fleets to attack our defense line, so we must send Liliang to drive this Liliang out." The Union needs us. Second, I will always stay on our eight-star spaceship to command the battle and be with you. ”
In the spacecraft, more than 3,400 combat personnel, staff officers, command personnel, and logistics personnel fell silent at the same time. Shangguan's explanation was very concise but clear, so clear that no one could think of opposing it.
Yes, the alliance needs us, the people need us, the leaders need us...... At this time, if we don't send them to death, who will send them to die? We are soldiers, we are soldiers!
It was in this dull and depressive atmosphere that all the personnel of the Eight Star spacecraft began their pre-battle preparations. Russo, one of the thirty chefs in logistics, also began to work intensively. He began to methodically put the raw materials into the making equipment, and then took out the items one by one in order, put them in the tableware, and the robot would send them to the canteen outside......
"Maybe Rosa put a little more." This thought came to Russo's mind after the food was made, but it was too late, and the food had already been delivered.
Since the alliance of twenty fifth-level civilizations was formed, under the strong leadership of the leader, civilizations began to merge with each other, and various living customs and cultures began to penetrate each other, including food. Rocha was a seasoning that was introduced in cultural exchanges, and because of its special taste, it was quickly welcomed by the soldiers. Of course, there is a certain standard for how much rosa to add to food, and if you put too much, it will have a great damage to the taste of the food. Mastering the standard takes a long time to practice, and Russo has not fully mastered it until now.
The soldiers outside began to eat in an orderly manner. Having completed his mission, Russo began to rest in the logistics room. Because it was not known how long the battle would last, the logistics personnel had to set off with the ship every time they went out, and this time it was obviously the same.
Russo had a hunch in his heart that this was probably his own expedition.
Originally, Russo thought that he would be very frightened at such a time, but until it really happened, Russo found that he was unusually calm, and the fear of death suddenly dissipated without a trace.
As Shangguan said, the alliance needs them, the people need them, and the leaders need them. And from the moment Russo stepped on the "Eight Stars" spacecraft, this kind of responsibility fell on his shoulders and would stay with him for the rest of his life until his death.
Russo has been living up to this responsibility for more than 100 years. He witnessed the leader's high spirits, integrating the five-level civilization alliance, the alliance's strength increased rapidly, and the scientific and technological strength advanced by leaps and bounds, and then the alliance ushered in the Shenzhou civilization, the most powerful enemy, he witnessed the destruction of the stars of the Flower of Death galaxy, and then fled with the large army, in the process, Russo experienced countless battles and felt the changes brought about by the rapid progress of the alliance's science and technology.
This technological advancement has really affected everyone involved. It's like the eight-star spaceship that is becoming more and more mobile, safer, and more and more attackable. This technological advancement has brought an expectation to everyone, including Russo. Everyone believes that although they are now at a disadvantage, the Shenzhou civilization will eventually be defeated by themselves.
"But I don't see that day anymore." Russo thought with some emotion.
The ship eventually set off, with the Eight Stars following the Edge provincial spacecraft, the Edge following the Blue Flag national spacecraft, and the Blue Flag following the Morris Continental-class spacecraft......
The Eight Star Ship is just an inconspicuous member of this huge fleet, but in the end, whether it is the Eight Star Ship or the Morris Spaceship, it is the same.
After hearing Shangguan say the words "Zaijian boys, I hope we can meet again in hell", Russo knew that the time for Zuihou had come. Russo knew that the star had been detonated, and death was just around the corner.
At this time, another thought that had nothing to do with the current situation came to Russo's mind very strangely: "It's a pity that Rosa has put too much. (To be continued......)
