Chapter 017: The Wisdom of a Foodie
In the outer space of the planet Solomy in the new Miami Star Sector, there is a small detachment composed of all five Behemoth-class battleships.
With a length of 5,000 meters and a width of more than 1,000 meters, these Behemoth-class battlecruisers are veritable space giants. In addition to the powerful Yamato cannon and nuclear bombs for orbital bombing, each cruiser carried up to 300 Phantom escort fighters and a varying number of auxiliary fighters such as medical transport planes and landing planes. With great combat power and strong protection formed by the armor of improved second-generation ships, the Behemoth-class battleship is invincible in human space. As a result, most of the senior commanders in the Union army would have chosen the battlecruiser as their flagship.
"Your Excellency, Honorable Deputy Commander, what do you mean by this Richard? Did you just send us away? In a large and luxurious room in the bow of the battlecruiser numbered 050001, a gray-haired general with four shining stars on his shoulder, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, asked with a smile.
"Bart, don't gloat here!" In the room, another middle-aged man with four stars on his shoulders and a fat body turned back a little impatiently and said: "The military department asked you and me to inspect the local defense of the new Miami star area, in fact, let us pay attention to the movements of the local garrison army in this star area!" But what do you see right now? In addition to singing and dancing, everything is still business as usual! ”
"Hmm!" The four-star general, who was about sixty years old and emaciated, stood up with a wine glass, nodded and said, "It is undeniable that the old fox Richard is indeed well disguised, and he doesn't see any changes in the local army at all. But then again, even now that we've smelled the smell of it, what can we do in the Fifth War Zone? Although the local garrison of the Star Sector under the command of Richard is nominally under the command of the Fifth War Zone, in fact, you and I cannot mobilize him! ”
"Hey! At the moment, I'm afraid all we can do is to brake quietly, and wait for the old fox to jump out when he can't bear to jump out, and then turn back to clean him up! Auston sighed lightly and continued: "The Federation has been calm for so many years, and it is estimated that this storm is not small! In my guess, I'm afraid that not only the new Miami star sector is moving, but other colonial star sectors are probably also a little troubled! Otherwise, the military department would not be so nervous, and ordered you and me to personally inspect the defense of the two Supreme Commanders of the Fifth Theater! ”
"Well, those old men in the military department probably want you and me to come over and knock on the mountain and shake the tiger, I hope Richard can get to know each other and stop the precipice!" Bart raised his head and drank the red wine in his hand, and said with a slight sigh: "However, I think the military department is probably going to miscalculate this time, so I'm afraid Richard won't stop there!" We ......"
As the two were talking, a huge display screen flashed in front of the room, and the figure of a federal colonel was revealed.
"Report to the two commanders, Major Gree, the commander of the forward outpost on the planet Solomi, who requests to speak with His Excellency the Commander in person!" The colonel saluted and said respectfully.
"Received XZ Confidential Channel!" Batllium groaned and ordered.
"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander!" The colonel agreed, and the display suddenly lost its brightness.
About ten seconds later, the originally black display screen flashed again, and a major in his early thirties saluted in the picture and said to Bart and the others: "Report to the two commanders, there is an important intelligence report from the subordinates!" ”
"Say!" Auston replied with a frown.
"All the forward posts under the jurisdiction of our ministry have reported in recent days that they have found suspicious secret posts with unknown identities swimming near the bases of the posts. According to the analysis of his subordinates, these secret posts are likely to be sent by the local garrison. ”
"Oh? Are you so sure it's the local garrison? Bart asked curiously.
"Your Excellency, Commander, please see, this armor part was found by our 13th Commander in pursuit of a discovered outpost. This kind of part is something that only the individual light armor of the main force of our federal army and the local garrison force can have! The major held up a small white piece the size of his thumbnail to the screen and explained to the two Barths.
Seeing this, Bart and the two took a few steps forward, came to the monitor to carefully identify the small part, and then looked at each other and smiled meaningfully.
"Major, the information you reported is very important, and the deputy commander and I hope you can keep it a secret!" Bart turned around and said.
"Your subordinates understand, Your Excellency Commander!" The major saluted, and the image vanished.
"Auston, I think we'd better go back quickly! Urge all army groups to speed up their combat readiness, I am afraid that a storm is coming! ”
"Okay, order the fleet to make a space jump! After returning to the base, I personally inspected the garrisons of the various army groups below! Auston nodded back.
On the planet Eder in the Poole Star Zone, the logistics base directly under the 115th Army Group on the outskirts of Sadra City was busy, and all kinds of transport planes, large and small, frequently took off and landed over the base.
The 9th Maintenance Company, which used to be able to sit on a cold bench, was unprecedentedly busy at this time. Groups of maintenance soldiers are like ants, working nervously around the chariots and mechs.
Diametrically opposed to the busy scene in the maintenance area, two people squatting at the door of the company's canteen, one fat and one thin, were idle and panicked.
"Brother Hao, I found that it's actually quite good to be a cook!" Hu Erfat, who was wearing a white cook's apron and a chef's hat, was biting half a persimmon in his hand. He really looks like a chef.
With a "bang", Hao Yi didn't look back, and shook the long-handled pot and spoon that was originally on his shoulder, and gave Hu Er's fat head a blow! "Foodie!" Haoyi scolded coldly, and continued to look at his comrades who were busy in front of him with resentment.
Before completing the task of cleaning the toilet, because of the "toilet" explosion, Haoyi and the two were given an additional punishment by the eccentric company commander - to work as a cook in the cooking class for two weeks. Although this punishment is not heavy, and the work in the cooking class is no more tiring than repairing chariots, Haoyi is still unhappy in his heart.
In the blink of an eye, it has been almost a month since the 9th Maintenance Company, but Haoyi and the others have not even touched the maintenance wrench, so they were inexplicably confined and confined to clean the toilet and used as a cook. Although the maintenance soldier is a military with an extremely bleak future, the incomparably "great dream" in Haoyi's heart has never been shattered. However, if they continue in their current state, under the double torture and destruction of the eccentric company commander and the high-flying Li Yuangao, Haoyi and the others may really have no way to raise their heads.
"Dog's company commander, I have to give you some color to see, our young master Hao is not scared!" Haoyi's eyes rolled, pondering how to retaliate, and the company commander who knew how to punish him all day long.
"Haoyi, Hu Liangtao, come and help prepare lunch!" There was a loud voice from the canteen, the elder of the cooking class, Wang.
"Lao Wang, what a delicious dish to cook at noon!" As soon as Hu Erpang heard that he was going to have lunch, his two little black eyes immediately lit up.
"Braised pork, steamed crab!"
"Huh? Steamed crabs! Hu Erpang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then showed an extremely miserable expression and wailed: "Oh my God, I knew I wouldn't eat persimmons!" ”
"Huh? What does it mean to be fat? Haoyi, who had just gotten up and was about to enter the house, turned his head and asked curiously.
"My mother said that crabs and persimmons can't be eaten together, otherwise they will have diarrhea!" Hu Erpang stopped wailing and said with a straight face.
"Do you have diarrhea?" Haoyi's eyes widened suddenly, and he asked, "Erfat, what you said is true?" ”
"What my mother said should be true, and there are so many things that I can't eat together, I can't remember exactly." Hu Erpang scratched his head, with some doubts in his eyes, how could Brother Hao, who had never been interested in eating, suddenly look like this.
"Haha, there it is!" Haoyi's heart flashed, and he suddenly jumped up and grabbed Hu Erpang excitedly and shook it: "Erfat, hurry up and hand over how many persimmons you still have!" ”
"Ahh Brother Hao, what are you going to do? Hu Erpang hurriedly held the remaining half of the persimmon in his hand tightly in his arms, and asked nervously: "Brother Hao, I remember you said that you don't like to eat persimmons and these fruits!" These persimmons are what I finally asked Lao Wang to buy from outside, you can eat them if you want, but you can't snatch them all! ”
"You just take care of the second fat, can Brother Hao take care of what you borrow? At most, next time, Brother Hao will ask Lao Wang to bring you double fruits and snacks! Hao Yi held back the excitement in his heart, exaggeratedly helped Er Fat sort out the wrinkled military uniform, and stammered with an extremely flattering smile.
"Okay!" Hu Erpang hesitated, and finally chose to believe in his brother Hao unconditionally.
After lunch, Haoyi snatched the errand of going to the company commander's office to clean up the tableware from Lao Wang, and specially brought a whole bag of persimmons deceived from Er Fat.
"Elder Lian, this is a small after-dinner fruit specially prepared for you, please enjoy!" Haoyi nodded, put the persimmon on Li Yi's desk, and smiled flatteringly.
"Hehe, the kid has learned to be sensible?" Li Yi burped, picked up the food in his mouth with a toothpick, and asked with a sneer, "What?" Don't hold a grudge against this company commander punishing you one after another? ”
"Don't dare, don't dare! That's even the elder man's earnest teachings to me, and it's too late to be grateful! Hao Yi smiled with that shameless face.
"Well, good boy! In the future, follow your platoon leader, and remember not to cause trouble again! Seeing that this recruit was obedient to his own training, Li Yi said with satisfaction: "Go down!" ”
Hearing this, Haoyi hurriedly hid haha, cleaned up the tableware used by Li Yi, and hurried out of the company commander's office.
About half an hour later, Li Yi began to rush into the toilet again and again, and the momentum was almost catching up with the speed of the death squad on the battlefield. Hao Yi, who was quietly observing from a distance, roughly calculated, in a whole afternoon, Li Yi went to the toilet nearly twenty times, and Hao Yi was happy to dance his unique hip twisting dance in the corner.
By the time of dinner, Li Yi was already pale and sweating, his legs were weak and he had no strength, so he had to go into the medical room and hang up the drip. The shrewd Li Yi naturally thought that it was likely that he had been plotted by others. But after checking and checking, he still couldn't find the slightest clue, so angry that Li Yi lay in bed for three whole days.
