Chapter 475: No one can replace the old man
In the era when mecha was king, the king was leaving.
Thinking of this, Davis wanted to stop talking, he didn't want Ji Xinghe to leave.
Not to leave the Western Theater, but to leave the alien battlefield, he knew that Ji Xinghe was going to take Ji Rong Xinyue back to the Azure Star, which in his opinion was a loss for the Federation.
That's why we have this conversation today.
The words he and Liu Mian said were not so much answering Ji Xinghe's questions, but rather that they were expressing their thoughts to Ji Xinghe.
But when it came to this, Ji Xinghe didn't give the response they wanted.
"Here they are."
Ji Xinghe, who was on the front line, ended his communication with Davis and others when he saw the great noble mecha of the empire appear on the battlefield, and entered the cockpit of the Divine Punishment Armor that he had completed repairing.
This move can be done in advance, but it doesn't make sense, because those of the empire's great noble mechs have just joined the battlefield, and the independent regiment and the mecha legions in the western theater of operations are temporarily unable to curb their mobility.
Ji Xinghe has joined the war early, and those big noble mechs will not hesitate to retreat.
They are afraid of death.
Activating the optical stealth function of the Divine Punishment Armor, Ji Xinghe left the parking area of the front line, drove the mecha to follow a tank formation, and gradually approached the frontline theater in the mode of coordinated travel between the machine and the tank.
He's still going to wait.
In the command center of the Western Theater, Davis glanced at Liu Mian, and between the two of them, they both felt the helplessness of the other party.
As the colonel staff officer of the Independent Regiment, Liu Mian didn't want Davis to be disappointed in Ji Xinghe, because Davis had outstanding ability and a bright future, and he could become a help to Ji Xinghe or the Independent Regiment in the future.
Moreover, from Davis's distrust of the Independent Regiment at the beginning, to the current conditional support for the Independent Regiment, Ji Xinghe's efforts in it should not be disappointed by Ji Xinghe's desire to return to Azure Star.
Leaned over and took the initiative to speak.
"Actually, his mission is complete."
"You mean, you single-handedly created an independent regiment and trained more than a dozen ace mecha warriors?"
"Yes." Liu Mian nodded slightly: "And he killed so many imperial dukes, giving us an advantage, so we shouldn't force him to stay." ”
"But with him, we have a bigger advantage."
Davis took a deep breath: "You know very well that if he goes back, our advantage will soon disappear. As we said earlier, those Duke Armor may often appear on the battlefield in the future, no longer only targeting our ace mecha warriors and mecha warriors who are about to be promoted to ace as before. ”
Liu Mian was a little speechless for a while.
He and Davis, as well as many, many people, knew very well that if the war mode on the alien planet was still the same as before, then the advantages brought by Ji Xinghe would be very obvious.
Therefore, Ji Xinghe said that he wanted to return to Azure Star, but not many people would stop him, such as Han Li who also took the initiative to ask Ji Xinghe to return to Azure Star.
But when the mode of war changes, the combat power represented by Ji Xinghe, as well as his ability to cultivate ace mecha warriors, are very important to the Federation.
And at this point, there are very many people in the Federation who can see it clearly, so people like Davis, who have the conditions to support Ji Xinghe, hope that Ji Xinghe will stay.
In the era when mecha is king, the Federation must have a king.
"General Li Yuanba, Colonel Han Li, Colonel Kaidilin, Colonel Rovich, Colonel Qin Tong......"
Liu Mian read out a bunch of names, looked at Davis and said, "They can all replace him." Especially Colonel Han Li, if he can successfully take over the Independent Regiment, I think the glory of the Independent Regiment will always shine on the alien battlefield. ”
Davis was silent.
He understood what Liu Mian meant, there was no doubt about who would take over the independent group after Ji Xinghe returned to Azure Star, Han Li was the most suitable candidate in all aspects, even if Han Li personally told Ji Xinghe that Ji Chenxing was killed by him.
But now it's different.
The combat effectiveness of the independent regiment is so strong that all theater commanders want the independent regiment to be incorporated into their command sequence.
And when this is not possible, and when the commanders of all major theaters want to form independent regiments, it is very likely that the independent regiments of Ji Xinghe will be split up and become the cornerstone of the four new independent regiments that the Federation is preparing to build.
In particular, after Kentwiss took over the position of commander-in-chief and Ji Xinghe returned to the Azure Star, the split of the Independent Regiment had a sense of imperativeness.
Liu Mian is enlisting Davis's help.
And Davis doesn't have that much ability, even if he will inevitably be promoted after this fight.
So this shows that the independent group itself is also very aware of their fate of being split, and it will be difficult to stop it with the departure of Ji Xinghe, and they need to get as much help as possible.
This also means that the matter of Ji Xinghe returning to Azure Star is a doomed fact.
Davis, who remained silent, looked at the point of light on the big screen that represented Ji Xinghe, and kept holding back.
At the same time, with the participation of the mechs of the great nobles of the empire, the mechs of the independent regiment and the western theater of operations have been more and more damaged.
He spoke suddenly.
"You actually know very well that no one can replace Ji Xinghe, including General Li Yuanba."
This is a clear refusal.
Liu Mian sighed in his heart, he knew that if Ji Xinghe returned to Azure Star, then Davis would not only not help the Independent Regiment maintain its current establishment, but would also vigorously promote the split of the Independent Regiment.
Because from a strategic point of view, this is of great benefit to the Federation.
"Why?" Liu Mian was very puzzled, he asked directly: "I don't understand, why do you have so much confidence in him." ”
"Because of Kadilin." Davis also replied without concealment: "Kadilin watched the video of Han Li's defeat of Yinan, and then he told me that no one can replace Ji Xinghe. ”
Liu Mian understood, because he also watched the video of that battle.
Although he couldn't understand it, the end of that battle was not long, but many people in the Federation watched the video of that battle, including Qin Tong and others, and watched the video for the first time after they fell asleep.
Everyone wants to know what kind of backhand Ji Xinghe left for Han Li, which can be described as Bao Win.
Many people have seen the answer they can see, that is, the six tungsten steel gold spike spears behind Xingyue can always give Han Li the greatest help at the most critical moment, and can seize every opportunity to bring Yinan attack that has to be blocked or avoided.
After reading it, the mecha warrior thought that the six stabbing spears were like being manipulated by six ace mecha warriors at the same time, and they had a good heart.
Therefore, the battle between Han Li and Yinan is equivalent to seven ace mecha warriors joining forces at the same time to fight Yinan, an imperial general.
How can you not win?
But how did Xingyue do it? Or rather, how did Ji Xinghe do it?
Regarding this point, Shen Mu gave an answer: Xingyue activated the God of War mode, and used Ji Xinghe as a template, combined with the auxiliary combat mechanism that Ji Xinghe preset for Xingyue.
At the same time, evidence was given, the recording of Ji Xinghe.
Everyone who heard this recording was convinced of the answer given by Shen Mu, because the recording contained almost all the auxiliary attacks that Xingyue made on his own when Han Li drove Xingyue to fight Yinan.
To put it simply, Ji Xinghe predicted 67% of Yinan's maneuvers before Han Li and Yinan started fighting, and informed Xingyue in advance that he had set up an auxiliary combat mechanism similar to the Q&A mechanism.
No one knows that this recording was supplemented by Ji Xinghe after the end of that war, and then the recording time was modified by Xingyue. If it weren't for the fear of being too scary, Ji Xinghe's prediction accuracy could reach 100%.
But 67% is already incredible, and all those who have watched the video and listened to it have once again had a shocking feeling about Ji Xinghe.
Combined with the previous record of Ji Xinghe driving Xingyue to defeat more than 400 Imperial Mechas, and almost killing Han Li, and solving the record of one Duke Armor with a 1.5-second operation delay, Ji Xinghe's prediction has reached the level of predicting the future in the eyes of many people.
In this case, Kadilin said that no one can replace Ji Xinghe, and there is no problem.
But Liu Mian knew that Kaidilin must have seen another fact that Qin Tong and the others also saw, that is, Ji Xinghe left another backhand to Han Li.
In contrast, this is the one who can really win: Yinan doesn't want to kill Ji Xinghe, it wants to capture Ji Xinghe alive.
The difference in combat effectiveness between the two sides seems to be, one side has no murderous intent, and the other side has murderous intent, and there will naturally be no accidents as a result.
By the time Yinan saw that he was about to be killed and finally had the intent to kill, Han Li had already established an absolute advantage, that is, he took the opportunity to break through another Duke Armor and caused serious damage to its mecha.
Unable to return to the sky.
As for the reason why Yinan was reluctant to kill Ji Xinghe at the beginning, it didn't matter.
Because compared to killing Ji Xinghe, capturing Ji Xinghe can have a greater impact on the Federation.
If it weren't for Han Li's inability to stop, he would have died, and he wouldn't have killed Yinan, even if he didn't know that the one inside the general's armor was Yinan.
Capturing an enemy of this level is worth far more than a direct kill.
In the Federation, there are only two mecha warriors who are worthy of being captured by the Empire, Ji Xinghe and Li Yuanba, and the other generals do not have the opportunity to be captured. But Li Yuanba can't make Ji Xinghe's prediction like predicting the future.
"Yes, no one can replace him, not even General Li Yuanba."
After Liu Mian understood the reason for Davis's attitude, he suddenly had confidence, he looked into Davis's eyes, and said seriously: "So, he will definitely come back." ”
"Do you think we're making a movie? Return of the king. ”
Davis's words became more and more unkind: "Only those unpopular authors who have never seen a real war, and only know conjectures, will write such a ridiculous war plot." ”
Liu Mian was not angry, he saw that on the big screen, the point of light representing Ji Xinghe finally moved.
"Every story will have a protagonist, and in every history, there will be a most glorious person. One day, our war will also become a story in people's mouths, a history that people learn from textbooks, and the protagonist of this story, the most glorious man in this history, why can't he be him? ”
"He's sixty-six, no, after this month, he's almost sixty-seven."
"Yes, he didn't start to shine until he was sixty-five years old, but isn't this even more legendary?"
"Then wait for him to prove that he can still fight at the age of seventy, and then you can say that the king will return."
"Yes, he will prove it, and I will also shout out the return of the king, if I haven't sacrificed at that time."
Liu Mian looked at Davis and said: "But there is no regret medicine in this world, I think, you will never forget in your life, why did he bring the independent regiment to the Western Theater." ”
Davis was stunned.
Of course, he will not forget that Ji Xinghe came to the Western Theater with an independent regiment, in a sense, just to avenge Chen Xuan, just to take Chen Xuan home, and everything else can be said to be incidental.
And Chen Xuan is just Ji Xinghe's apprentice in the Xinfengcheng Auto Repair Factory.
Is that really an apprentice?
It doesn't matter if it's counted or not, the important thing is that these people in the Independent Regiment are all apprentices of Ji Xinghe.
If these people are killed or injured because they have been divided, or even killed......
The returning king will surely be able to drive the most powerful mecha in the world and have the sharpest sword in the world.
But where will the king's blade point?
As the blade points to, how many people will look forward to this day and follow it at all costs?
Davis's determination to return to Azure Star was suddenly shaken because Ji Xinghe wanted to return to the Azure Star.
And this conversation between him and Liu Mian did not shy away from anyone in the command center of the Western Theater, and it was recorded.
There will be a lot of people who will hear it, but will more people be shaken?
Or is it doomed to sacrifice a small number of people because the federal will is higher than the will of the individual, the federal interest is higher than the individual interest, and the federal legal system is higher than the rules of the individual?
"Hehe......"
Kentwiss, who also heard this conversation, suddenly sneered twice.
"This Liu Mian is very interesting."
It doesn't matter if others waver or not, anyway, he will never waver in his idea of creating another independent regiment.
The era of mechs being king is coming, and he can see it.
Yingzhou has already begun to prepare for the application before it has been approved, and the same three hundred mountain-cutting mechas, including the necessary spare parts, have all entered the manufacturing process.
And that's just the bright side.
Kentveth thought of the mechs prepared by the organization at the top of the tower, as well as the high-synchronization personnel secretly selected.
The empire has undergone some inevitable changes because of this war, and why hasn't the Federation undergone inevitable changes?
If the Emperor was working towards a high degree of centralization, then the Tower of the Towers was working to prevent a high degree of centralization in the Federation.
They don't want to continue fighting, but they can't guarantee that this war will enter the stage of peace talks. If the fight continues, the federal military, which cannot hold on, will inevitably try to create a military government.
When everything is controlled by the military, capital and politics are two jokes, and the power they have will disappear in an instant. Even if the federation in the future will embark on the path of repetition, the owners of capital power and political power will inevitably change a group of people.
For this, those who are now preparing for it with another hand.
By the time he becomes commander-in-chief, the people who fight on the alien planet will not only be federal soldiers.
They can be called mercenaries, but in essence, they are just armed forces in the hands of capital, helping them to obtain the benefits they have longed for from this war.
and, to guarantee that the power of capital would not be violated, and that if it did, they would not mind the Union descending into civil strife.
"King? You can never be king, even in the days when mechs are king. ”
Kentveth looked at Ji Xinghe, who had already rushed into the battlefield, and saw those imperial noble mecha that began to retreat because of Ji Xinghe's appearance.
Some respect appeared in his heart, which was forcibly extinguished by himself.
"Because the mecha that can make you king is in our hands, and if we don't give it to you, what use are you? No one is irreplaceable, let alone ......
You're just an old man who can fight. ”
