Didi, Didi, Jim's communicator thought, and after opening it, a holographic figure appeared in front of him, a tall young man, with the rank of lieutenant colonel, and a captain's uniform.

"Boss Jim, something is wrong. ”

"What's the matter, Matt, is it news from Kerrigan?"

"Yes, Boss Jim, Councillor Mengsk ordered the Hyperion to retreat, abandoning the provincial capital planet TL-ZC0043 and the nearby star field, the Fifth Fleet is now evacuating, and Hercules 2 and Hercules 3 are trapped on the planet's surface. ”

"What? Tasanis has close to 100 million civilians, and our 1.5 million Mobile Suits, and Kerrigan. Do you want to give up together?" not only Jim was stunned, but everyone present was stunned. Crazy, crazy.

"I'm afraid yes, sir, you know, I don't have the right to change orders, and one of my ships can't stand up to the entire Zerg army. Matt was helpless.

"Ah...... Bastard" Jim pounded the table almost like crazy. "No, Mengsk can't do that. ”

The other people who heard the news were also dumbfounded, and there was no sound of discussion, and the hall was almost audible in the room, and the silence was terrifying. No one has ever seen this kind of battle, giving up hundreds of millions of people at every turn, these are all living kind, not livestock, bed bugs, how can you say give up and give up?

"I can't help much, sir, but I can use my authority to contact Councillor Monsk, do you need to talk to him?"

Jim calmed down, "Okay, come on, Matt, I'm going to see what this old guy wants to do?"

"I'll get through, Jim, don't be impulsive, the status of the First Councillor is not something we can shake. And I must remind you that I overstepped the level of reporting, and I must inform General Stilwell afterwards. ”

"Got it. I'll explain to Stilwell that this is to avoid getting him in trouble. ”

A minute later, the figure of the First Councillor appeared in the middle of the hall.

What kind of person should be described as this? On the inland planet, videos of his speeches are seen almost every day, and there is no other feeling than admiration for his legendary experience and respect for his leader. But at this time, it was an almost face-to-face conversation, and the people who stood behind Jim as supporting characters couldn't say that they weren't excited. This is the most powerful man outside of the Federal President. He is known as a pioneer of the revolution, leader of the Free Army, leader of the House of Deputies, and son of Keha. Behind the many titles, it represents the people's respect and worship for him, and even fanatical faith.

Unfortunately, these cults and beliefs do not exist now, and those present are all Jim Reynolds' hardcore men, who now only want a reasonable explanation and hope that the federal top brass will take back their fate.

Especially the Blue Cat Squad, they have been fighting in Tasanis for more than a month, and they have seen too many painful scenes, and the desperate eyes of those poor people are still vivid in their minds, if the fleet is evacuated urgently, then their month's battle will not be in vain? There are more than a million soldiers who have worked hard to fight, and their blood and tears have not been shed in vain? The five major fleets of the Federation have come for two and a half, can't they resist for a month? It's okay for half a month, and the military and civilian spacecraft will go down to pick up people, and I believe that most of them can be picked up within this time.

There is also Kai Ruigan, a goddess-like figure, her personal strength and influence, the meaning of her existence is definitely worthy of half a fleet, no matter what, she must be picked up. Something that can be accomplished with just one Swift-class ship. The turbulence in Zhang Wen's heart is definitely no smaller than that of Jim Renault.

"I'm afraid there's something wrong with that. He clenched his fists and forced himself to calm down, thinking about the crux of the problem and the remedy.

At this time, everyone in the audience had their own thoughts, and opposite, the high leader of the people, Akturs Monsk, stood there alive, with a kind face and a majestic look in his eyes. The temperament of the superior completely ignored the minions, and his eyes were fixed on Jim without speaking. The feeling was completely different from watching a video on a screen, the atmosphere in the room was oppressive, and the majesty of the leader made people bow their heads and try to resist, but there were still people who couldn't help but tremble.

"Mengsk...... "Only Jim clenched his fists and stared at the First Councillor, almost squeezing out.

"Jim Reno, what's the matter with me?"

Jim tried to stabilize the mood, "What I want to ask is why give up the planet Tassanis, where there are still 100 million civilians, 1.5 million warriors. Why give up. What about your armada?Do you want to be a deserter?Don't you even dare to kill worms??What about your courage??," Jim became angrier and angrier, and then almost roared.

Zhang Wen and the others were completely stupid, and they didn't know whether to stop Jim Leno or put him in confinement. No one can understand what kind of audacity a lieutenant colonel has to be so bold in insulting the head of the Union? Or that he is crazy. Even Admiral Stilwell, the commander in chief of the Fifth Fleet, did not dare to speak to the leaders of the Federation like this.

However, Lord Mengsk actually watched calmly like that, and did not say a word. It wasn't until Jim was out of breath that he looked around, finally locked onto Jim Renaud and sighed.

"My old fellow, my brother, my Sergeant Renault, I perfectly understand your feelings, I empathize. In the face of the barbaric invasion of foreign races, countless people have lost their homes and relatives. ”

"But the bloody slaughter of the enemy will not end because of our suffering. For these demons, we can only fight strongly, counter violence with violence, and stop killing with killing, this is my political philosophy of dealing with foreign enemies, and it will never change. This is also where my courage lies, instead of hiding in the rear and enjoying a luxurious life like a high-ranking federal official, I followed the troops to the front of the front against the insects. Moreover, I will be the last to evacuate, and I will lead the First Fleet to retreat only after you Federation soldiers have left safely. ”

"Renault, do you think I am acting cowardly and cowardly in doing so? As to why I should retreat, and forsake Tassanis and the soldiers above, I can tell you unequivocally that this is a plan that has been put forward by the General Staff and ordered by me to be carried out according to the situation of the battle. As a soldier, don't you understand that obeying orders is higher than your life?"

The more he spoke, the more severe he became, and when the last sentence came out, the momentum exploded, and Jim Renaud couldn't stand it and was forced to take a big step back.

But Jim Renaud was no ordinary man, clenched his fists, strode forward, and almost face-to-face with Lord Mengsk before stopping, roaring madly.

"No, absolutely not, Kerrigan, she's still on the planet, she can't die, she's the leader of the Ghost Force, there are still 1.5 million brothers there, close to 100 million civilians, you and those bastards in the staff don't have any reason to abandon them. ”
