The sky of planet Africa seems to be forever so pure and clear, and it is refreshing. Quick reading for mobile phones: Ă p.1(6)Îșx text version debuts
The star "Solo's Gate" "emitted" a gentle light that slowly streaked across the sky. The wheat 'waves' on the earth are surging, and the wind supports the willows, which is completely a peaceful and beautiful pastoral scenery.
For the New Roman Empire and the entire Perseus spiral arm human world, the planet of Africa has always been of great significance. Because it has a very ideal environment, especially for agricultural and animal husbandry, when humans arrived, the planet was built according to the standards of agricultural bases.
Today, this planet has become the most important food supply base for the entire Perseus Spiral Human World. It not only met 90% of the food needs of the entire New Roman Empire, but also exported a large number of grain, wine and cash crops to the Perseus Interstellar Federation every year through the entrepot trade of the planet "Taiji".
The planet Afrika also has a major responsibility for a planet nearly 10,000 light-years away. This planet is the homeland of mankind that has become history in the eyes of most ordinary people, the Earth. The planet of Africa did not have an independent government before it was accepted by the Senate as an imperial province. It has always belonged to Earth, an extrasolar food base of the Food and Agriculture Administration of the United Nations. Although it has been supplying Perseus Spiral Arm food for a long time, and is economically closely connected to the complex Perseus Spiral Arm countries, politically, it has always been under the management of the United Nations on Earth.
It was not until nearly a hundred years ago, when the Senate 'planted' the double-headed eagle banner on the planet, that Africa was politically freed from the old planet. However, the Senate made an agreement with the Earth United Nations to provide a free batch of food to the Earth every year to make up for the huge gap in the Earth's own food supply.
Therefore, when people think of the planet Africa, people often think of the beautiful pastoral scenery of golden ears of wheat, rice 'flowers', vineyards, pastures and fine wines. Jiang Ziyue is happy to be able to live here.
Lotta? Stoldt's mother, Cornelia, had been a wheat grower in Africa, managing a farm of nearly 300 acres. After Jiang Ziyue and Lota left the army, they couldn't find a job, so Conelia simply called her 'daughter' and 'daughter' in law to help.
It has been several months since she arrived in Africa, and Jiang Ziyue has fully adapted to life here. During the day, he followed the agricultural robot to work in the field, and returned to his mother-in-law's house at night, holding his wife with full of 'fine' energy to live a carefree life.
On this day, Jiang Ziyue returned home with a full body of exhaustion, but Lota said with a heavy face: "The Privy Council and the Military Department have announced the battle report for June. â
"Is it that the interstellar planet is 'easy' to lose?"
Jiang Ziyue asked nonchalantly. After the second Battle of the "Yi" Star Field, he had long expected that the Immortal Interstellar Federation would not rest on its laurels and would definitely do its best to seize the "Yi" Star Field.
"There's more." "Gus is dead. â
"What?" Jiang Ziyue could hardly believe his ears.
"More than 300,000 soldiers, including Reichsal Bogdorff, were killed. More than 2,000 battleships were destroyed. "Retired General Albrecht? After saying this, Staudt sighed, "What a catastrophe, this is the worst loss in 2890 years. â
Jiang Ziyue sat beside Lota in a daze, not saying a word. Good friend, white-haired Gus? Whitehead died, in the distant "easy" star field, floating like interstellar dust, in the desolate extraterrestrial space. Perhaps one day, his soul will be able to be absorbed by the powerful gravitational pull of the galaxy and return to this beautiful world.
On 15 July, the New Roman Empire issued the results of the Third Battle of the Yi Star Field, and announced the Senate's posthumous order for the war victims. Needless to say, Bergdorf gave all the titles that could be given to a dead man, and the commander of the "Napoleon" detachment, Zeng Tai, was posthumously awarded the rank of imperial general that only a dead admiral had, and the commander of the "Haraldi" detachment, Gus? Whitehead was posthumously awarded Major General.
"To be a general when you die, is this the fate of Gus?"
Jiang Ziyue sighed. He couldn't help but think of the time when Gus had booked a coffin for himself at the Battle of the Neu-Rhine.
"Ziyue." Lota said as she gently hugged her husband.
After being silent for a long time, Jiang Ziyue said sadly: "He is not married yet." â
At this time, Cornelia walked into the living room and comforted, "Okay, don't be too sad, everyone. Let's have dinner. â
Jiang Ziyue and Lota had no choice but to stand up and go to dinner.
But dinner didn't go well. Because during the meal, a call-up order from the defense headquarters was served.
"Sure enough, the losses are so great that you young reserve officers have to be reinstated." Albrecht sighed, "It reminds me of the re-enlistment order that was issued to me by the military headquarters after the disastrous defeat at the 'Machu Picchu' Star Field in 2890. â
"It said that because it is a husband and wife, as long as one of me and Lota returns to the team." Jiang Ziyue explained.
"Can't you just not go?" The mother-in-law, Conelia, asked worriedly, "Does someone have to go?" â
"I'm afraid not, Mom."
Lota shook her head and said. Her movements were striking because of her ear-length hair. For the sake of her beloved man, she violated her oath to enlist in the army and went for a hair transplant, so that her bald head had a black and bright hair for more than half a year, which looked more beautiful and more 'female' and 'sexual'.
"General Karios has been appointed acting commander of the Central Fleet. He used to take care of Ziyue very much, and now he definitely wants Ziyue to go back. â
"Not only General Karios, but Your Excellency the Consul may also call me." Jiang Ziyue said, "When Lota and I applied for discharge, he personally persuaded me to stay in the army. â
"It seems to be the expectation of everyone." Albrecht smiled and said, "The king is back!" â
"The Return of the King?"
Jiang Ziyue couldn't help but let out a wry smile. Thinking that Gus, who was so wise and brave, died in battle, he began to worry about his fate.
"Okay, let's leave those things alone for now, let's eat." Lota said.
On July 28, 2919, Jiang Ziyue walked into the spaceport accompanied by Lotta.
"Ziyue, if you leave, I'll have a very bad night." Lota said bitterly.
"Will be back soon. I'll take you on a tour when you come back, and then we're going to have kids, okay? Jiang Ziyue asked softly with her arms around Lota.
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you." Lota sweetly agreed.
"Then I'm leaving." Jiang Ziyue finished speaking and was ready to say goodbye.
Lota grabbed him and gave him a long, deep 'kiss'.
The Imperial Frontier Fleet transport ship "Yue Fei" crossed the starry sky, 'excited' the Akuberi engine, jumped into the space 'wave', and carried Jiang Ziyue straight to the star Iserlon.
As soon as Jiang Ziyue arrived, Blake? Admiral Karios called him to his office.
The death of Marshal Bergdorf gave Karios a good opportunity, and with the support of the consul Wang Zeren, he successfully served as the acting commander of the Central Fleet, temporarily concentrating the power of both fleets in his own hands. Although the commander of the Central Fleet often controlled the Frontier Fleet in wartime, this was the first time that the Commander of the Frontier Fleet controlled the Central Fleet. Therefore, although the three sub-fleets of the Central Fleet were completely wiped out in the "Yi" Star Domain, the new acting commander was still full of 'spring' wind. It was as if the fiasco was a good thing for him.
Seeing Jiang Ziyue, Karios shouted happily: "Haha, my Jiang Ziyue, have a happy newlywed life?" Our Major Stoddt is still happy with you, isn't he? â
"Thank you, sir, for your concern." Jiang Ziyue replied with a smile, "She is very satisfied with me, but she is full of firepower, and sometimes I am really a little overwhelmed." â
Karios laughed heartily and said, "You've been in space for too long. Your weapon system isn't well adapted to gravity. â
For his "professional" explanation, Jiang Ziyue could only show an expression of approval on his face to show his approval.
"Let's get down to business. This time, Bogdorf lost so badly that he lost his life, and it is said that his body could not be found. An imperial marshal is just shattered in a distant star field. It's a boast when you think about it. Karios sighed heavily.
"Your Excellency Bergdorf is dead, and we no longer have an Imperial Marshal."
"Yes. Unless there is another great warrior, the Senate will not casually confer the highest rank. â
"Sir, the Senate asked you to act as commander of the Central Fleet, why didn't you grant you the rank of Imperial Marshal?"
"Me? Imperial Marshal? Ziyue, no kidding. You wear the Medal of Caesar in oak leaf gold on your chest, but I don't have any. So, at most, I can 'mix' with the Imperial General after death. As for the Imperial Marshal, I don't have extravagant expectations. I'm content with the status quo. â
Karios was clearly aware of his own pounds. Although he can achieve the position of Bergdorf, he is far from the bravery, exploits and courage of Bergdorf.
"However, I am very optimistic about you, maybe in another ten or twenty years, you may be the Imperial Marshal Jiang Ziyue."
"The chief has won the prize."
"I will directly promote you to the chief of staff of the newly formed *** fleet and the commander of the first detachment, and award you the rank of colonel." Karios announced.
"*** fleet?" Jiang Ziyue asked in surprise.
"Don't be happy, there aren't many fleets in formation." "From June last year to now, we have lost half of our battleships, but we have only replenished thirty percent," Karios reminded. So our current situation is quite grim, the 'Mao' fleet currently has only 300 battleships, and the remaining 1,000 are all cruisers. â
"With so many cruisers, the power is already huge." Jiang Ziyue said confidently, "Who is my commander?" â
"Lieutenant General Li Jingxian, '*** party leader'." Karios teased, "This is a good opportunity, and it's also a bright and smooth path to 'mingle' with you." â
"I don't have a choice." Jiang Ziyue said helplessly that he didn't know much about Li Jingxian and had never served under him, but his image of his "*** party leader" was not good.
"This is the result of the struggle and compromise of the Senate." Karios also looked helpless.
