Chapter 269: Let's Go Back to the Azure Star
Han Li accepted the challenge and won, giving the B72 Highlands a 48-hour buffer.
It's very similar to the previous one of Ji Xinghe, but it's a little different.
The Empire's attack on Base 6 during the Dust Storm can be continued, but the Empire's attack on the B72 Heights must accumulate enough strength, otherwise it will sink into the sea and not stir up the slightest wave.
Even without this front-of-battle challenge, they would need to take a break before they can attack again.
However, judging from the footage captured by the reconnaissance satellite, the Empire's troop movement against the B72 heights is indeed much slower than before, and it is also much more than before.
When the war was about to resume, Ji Xinghe was a little lonely.
The improvised Starship Mecha Corps was training, and he, the titular commander, had become an outsider.
There weren't many mechs that had been damaged in the previous battles, and the mechanics in the B72 Heights were more than enough, and as a professional mechanic who didn't mind repairing mechs, he didn't have a chance to show his abilities.
"Uncle Ji, you can use this time to record your teaching video."
Han Li found Ji Xinghe, who was suddenly idle.
In fact, Ji Xinghe is not idle, he is in armor-piercing training, and he is alone in the open area of the camp to control the mecha punching, and the moves are slow.
It's just because everyone else is too busy to take care of him that he seems to be idle.
"I've already recorded it before."
Ji Xinghe did not stop his maneuvering movements in boxing, just like he had practiced diligently every day for the past fifty-six years.
A biological clock that has taken half a century to develop is probably more accurate than many clocks.
"Recorded in advance?"
Han Li was a little surprised, but he figured it out in a flash, and said in a deep tone: "Is it for Xinxin?" ”
"Yes." Ji Xinghe didn't hide it: "Xinxin's body, you know, following me to practice boxing is good for her body, I'm afraid that one day when I'm gone, no one will teach her to practice boxing." ”
Han Li was silent.
He didn't say anything like 'anyone will die, but you Ji Xinghe can't die', he has experienced too many life and death after fighting on another planet for many years.
Everyone can die, and he who has become an ace mecha warrior is actually no different from Ji Chenxing, who has already died, sooner or later.
It is precisely for this reason that he didn't say anything like 'Xinxin's kung fu, I'll teach it', if Ji Xinghe was killed in battle, then what strength and face did he Han Li have to live?
"I've asked the doctor."
Han Li didn't wear armor, his mecha was still under repair, he was wearing a set of individual exoskeleton armor, standing next to Ji Xinghe's general armor and looking up and talking.
"The doctor said that in about five months, Xinxin will be able to return to Azure Star, Uncle Ji, what do you think?"
Before Ji Xinghe came to Azure Star, Tu Yuan once said that Xinxin needed about two years of treatment.
At this time, it is only a little more than a year away from Ji Xinghe, and it is only a year and a half if you count five months.
The improvement of the treatment effect has a lot to do with Ji Xinghe's resume and merits, and the relevant departments of the federation can also be described as treating Ji Rong Xinyue at all costs.
Everyone knows that Ji Rong Xinyue is Ji Xinghe's weakness, not to mention anything else, just to say that if Ji Rong Xinyue has an accident, Ji Xinghe will inevitably have the will to die.
It's like when Ji Xinghe learned the news of Ji Chenxing's sacrifice.
An ace mech warrior who wants to live to protect his granddaughter, and an ace mech warrior who wants to die, and the Federation has no reason to choose the latter.
There is another reason, that is, Ji Rong Xinyue is practicing kung fu with Ji Xinghe, and it has achieved initial results.
"What do I think......"
Ji Xinghe finally stopped driving the mecha to practice boxing, and stood there looking in the direction of Base Five.
He crossed a distance of more than 1,000 kilometers at this glance, and directly saw Ji Rong Xinyue who was taking a cultural class.
As an ace mecha warrior, Ji Xinghe, who has the privilege, never skimps on this communication resource in non-combat periods, and connects to the only classroom in Base No. 5, and you can see Ji Rong Xinyue's appearance.
On the visual window in the cockpit of the mecha, Ji Rong Xinyue, who was sitting upright, looked very serious listening to the lecture.
The children around her like her also listened very carefully, including Ma Ergou and Lin Shu, who were usually very noisy, and they all seemed to be dealing with a battle when they were in cultural class.
After only nine seconds of watching, Ji Xinghe turned off the communication.
During this process, Han Li waited in silence.
Finally, Ji Xinghe mustered up his courage and said, "I don't know. ”
It takes more courage to say you don't know than to make a decision.
"Alas......" Han Li sighed before he said, "Uncle Ji, before you became an ace mecha warrior, strictly speaking, it should be before you completed the time when you cut the mountain, I often think about a question. ”
Ji Xinghe asked, "Are you thinking about how to persuade me to take Xinxin back to Azure Star?" ”
"Yes, I have always thought this way before, and I have prepared a lot of words for this, and I have also consulted with Su reporters." Han Li hesitated: "But now ......"
"But now, you don't want me to go back to Azure Star." Ji Xinghe seemed to have suddenly learned the art of mind reading, and said: "But you still really want Xinxin to return to Azure Star, and you, like me, don't trust other people, so you don't want others to take care of Xinxin, and want me to take care of Xinxin." Is that so? ”
Han Li was stunned, and only spoke again after a while.
"Uncle Ji, is your Heart Slashing Knife so powerful now? Are there any relevant knowledge points in your teaching videos? ”
"This is not a heart-cutting knife, this is human affection, this is human affection, this is the reason why you have to call me uncle. However, there is indeed a heart-cutting knife in the instructional video. ”
"Okay."
Han Li organized his words a little, and then spoke.
"Uncle Ji, apart from you in this world, I should be the one who hopes that Xinxin can grow up safely and happily. So I think you should be in the same trouble as I am right now. ”
"I hope that you and Shin Shin will both go back, because I want you and Shin Shin to live well. But I am reluctant to let you go back, because your combat effectiveness is stronger than mine, and in terms of your current performance, the role you can play in this war is definitely much higher than mine. ”
"If you want revenge, you must want to stay in the alien planet and continue to fight. But you don't feel at ease and want to keep her by your side to take care of her, and her body may return to Azure Star...... You also want to come back to Azure Star to take care of her. ”
"I've been thinking about this a lot these days, and you can guess what I'm thinking, and I'm thinking about it."
"I don't know what decision you made, and I don't know what your final choice was. In every way, I'm actually the least qualified person to talk to you about this, let alone give you any advice. ”
"But."
Han Li took a deep breath and his tone became resolute.
"Uncle Ji, I think you should take Xinxin back."
Ji Xinghe listened to Han Li's words and was silent for a while before speaking.
"It's because you've broken through now and think you're done, so you want to say you're going to help me get revenge?"
Han Li said frankly: "Yes, I really didn't have the courage to say these words to you before. ”
Ji Xinghe was silent again.
The two mechas, one large and one small, look very harmonious in the afterglow of the light blue sunset of the alien star.
In a sense, the individual exoskeleton armor that Han Li was wearing at this time was a small mecha.
But the atmosphere between the two is not as harmonious as it seems.
There are some things that Han Li didn't say, it doesn't mean that Ji Xinghe can't guess it, he can guess Han Li's heart, and naturally he can also guess Han Li's words that he doesn't want to say.
Like what.
"If I don't go back, are you going to stop what I'm going to do?"
Ji Xinghe directly singled out.
Han Li didn't hesitate.
"Yes, I will stop it, although I don't want to stop it at all. But if you choose to go back with Shin Shin, I will do what you want to do for you. ”
Ji Xinghe suddenly smiled, but he was in the cockpit, and no one could see how helpless his smile was at this time.
The fact that he was able to create so many miracles in such a short period of time and reach the current level had a great deal to do with the challenge that Han Li had launched against him at the beginning.
If it weren't for Han Li's self-stigmatizing behavior, he might have needed to repair regular vehicles for a long time before he could go to the mechanic area to be able to access the real mech.
The identity of the instructor in the training area, the identity of the mechanic, the actual machine test in the machine repair area, etc., are the cornerstones for him to be able to obtain the second-level mecha warrior qualification certificate and participate in the search and rescue mission of the blind.
Not only does it take more time and effort to get a real chance, but it also delays the treatment of Shin Shin.
When he first arrived, he was very poor, and it was Han Li who transferred him a sum of money.
After that, he spared no effort to give back to Han Li, until today Han Li dared to say such things to him.
"It's really more appropriate for you to do that thing than I do, because you're young, because you've been fighting in aliens for many years, and because you're a more pure professional soldier than me."
Ji Xinghe slowly spoke.
"However, you do it and I do it, for me to do two things, even if the result is the same, for me it is also two results."
Han Li didn't mean Ji Xinghe's attitude, he didn't debate with Ji Xinghe, but asked questions.
"But you always have to make decisions, so why can't you make decisions sooner? This is very important for you, for Xinxin, for Chen Xun, Su He, Shen Mu, the blind man, for me, and for the Federation. ”
Ji Xinghe asked rhetorically, "Do you really know what we're going to do?" ”
"Of course."
Han Li's tone was confirmed.
"We want to prevent the Federation from negotiating peace with the Empire, and we want to fight directly to the Empire while we can still fight. We want our children and grandchildren to never have to worry about war again. ”
Both of them use the word we, but the topics they discuss have the potential to make us us and you.
Ji Xinghe didn't respond immediately, he opened the cockpit door of the mecha, jumped out of it, and stood in front of Han Li.
Wearing only a protective suit and a helmet, he looked much thinner than Han Li, and the height of the two of them was also the same because of Han Li's individual exoskeleton armor.
Looking at each other on an equal footing, this is the first time for the two.
Both in stature and mentality.
"Xiao Han." Ji Xinghe asked seriously: "Are you afraid that I will sacrifice, are you ashamed of Morning Star?" ”
Han Li's tall figure collapsed in an instant.
