January 24, 2036, the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month.

In the restaurant of the White Horn, a grand banquet is underway.

Because it coincides with the traditional Christmas in the West, and the Spring Festival is approaching, and the Wang Jian is about to leave the Diviby galaxy to set up a defense line in the new airspace on the Auriga, this party is endowed with more meaning.

In addition to the crew of the White Rise, most of the crews of the other three flagships also gathered here on the landing ship, leaving only the necessary personnel on duty, so that the normally spacious dining room actually became crowded, and even the chief officers of the former enemy headquarters were crowded in the corner.

"Lao Yang, go to the office to drink? These boys are beaten down in such a circle, even if they drink cold water, they can't stand it. ”

Zeng Yuanhai loosened the button of a belt and scolded with a smile to drive away the correspondent who wanted to come to toast on his boat.

"Okay, it's a bit noisy here." Yang Wenzhi smiled and nodded.

As a former enemy commander, he usually behaves a lot of calm, but today...... On such a special day, it is not appropriate to be tense again. It was he who stood up and made a simple summary congratulatory message to all the front-line officers and men as the commander-in-chief of the former enemy headquarters - well, it is to let everyone eat and drink well.

As for whether there will be trouble, this is completely out of his mind - Aita's gendarmerie mode has long been online, specializing in all kinds of disobedience.

Soon, the group of commanders got up and went to the conference room.

When the machine guards re-served good food and drinks, everyone didn't have much interest in drinking, and they didn't know who mentioned the training two years ago, and everyone's thoughts instantly returned to the scene of the moon base.

"Speaking of which, we've been wandering outside for more than a year." Colonel Smir is now unusually proficient in Mandarin, and he doesn't even have a single accent. He picked up his wine glass and drank it all to himself: "Lao Tzu hasn't been home for a year." ”

"Who has ever been home, by the way, has Lao Ao ever been home? Isn't there an artificial wormhole over there? It's easy to go back. ”

"He was busy with Miss Paokerong all day, and apparently he didn't come home."

"Tsk, really?"

"What do you say?"

", then next time I have to ask what the Kerong woman tastes like."

"Aren't all the same when the lights are off?"

The crowd laughed.

Although all of you are officers of the new era, and all of them are high-level intellectuals, the topics of men, non-present companions, and women will never go out of style.

It's just that everyone is still measured after all, and they don't continue to slip.

"Lao Yang, is there any news? We can't just stay here all the time, can we? After laughing, Smir looked at Yang Wenzhi: "I asked for leave to go back a week ago, and the above directly rejected it, I think something big is brewing." ”

As he spoke, he looked at the others: "Do you say?" ”

Everyone didn't answer, and they all looked at Yang Wenzhi at the same time - this is the chief of staff of their former enemy headquarters, and he has the private communication numbers of multiple bigwigs, even Academician Ye Ming's! He is the only one who is well-informed.

Facing everyone's eyes, Yang Wenzhi just smiled and shook his head.

"Lao Yang, is it true or not?"

"Not really."

"What's the matter...... If you don't fight, you can't fake it, you really just stare at it and engage in a new cool war in space? ”

"Cool War, now we don't even know where the main fleet is, and we don't even know how much the enemy's overall strength is......"

"What's more, can't we hang a colonel to command dozens of nearly a hundred warships, right? Even the Navy didn't bring such a low-level one at the beginning! ”

Everyone talked and poured out the irritability in their hearts one by one.

As professional soldiers, of course, they take obedience as their duty, but they are not robots, they only know obedience.

In the Battle of Aurigaya the year before, they made great achievements, and then began to advance into the Karatu Galaxy, completing the prototype of the civilization circle alliance of the Milky Way, the Andromeda Galaxy, the Triangulum Galaxy, the Karatu Galaxy, and the Tara Galaxy. Then he advanced into the Dekka system and completed a beautiful annihilation battle in the Tara system...

So far, they have been adrift for at least a year and a half.

Although communication is now developed and it is possible to communicate with family members in real time without barriers, how can this kind of virtual picture be compared with being in the same room with relatives and having close contact?

And they are willingly adrift like this, in addition to performing the duty of soldiers, in addition to guarding the glory of human civilization ... They also want to be able to fight and rise all the way.

It's human nature.

If a soldier doesn't fight, he can only slowly improve his qualifications...... It's not that you can't make it up...... But is it time to stay up?

Apparently not!

Who here doesn't want to see the day when the human fleet will be led by them to level the universe.

"Let's not talk about that, we're mainly waiting now. You must believe that the General Headquarters is definitely more professional than us, and it is more comprehensive. Yang Wenzhi saw that everyone was full of complaints, so he picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "Come, drink!" ”

"Still drinking? Are you really not afraid of the enemy raiding you? Zeng Yuanhai shook his head with a smile, but also raised his wine glass.

"Well, you'd love the enemy to come, would you? And then it's good to run in a fight? ”

"Cut! If the enemy really wants to come over now, then it only means one thing, they know us well, and then there is an internal response. Otherwise......"

Just before Zeng Yuanhai's words fell, Aita's voice suddenly sounded above his head.

"Commander Yang Wenzhi, I received the communication from the Taiyue command center, and it will be automatically connected after thirty seconds, please prepare."

Hearing Aita's voice, everyone was stunned!

Zeng Yuanhai's face was even more weird - it wouldn't really be said, right? Did Taiyo receive any news?

But then, everyone came to their senses and quickly put away the bottles and glasses.

Thirty seconds later, the light curtain fell, and Lao Qin of the Taiyue Command Center appeared in the picture with a serious face.

"It's good that everybody's here. Former enemy command. ”

"Here!" As soon as Yang Wenzhi heard Qin Weiguo's voice, he immediately knew that this was a military order and immediately stood up. The rest of the people looked at each other and stood up.

"After receiving the order of the Military Executive Committee of the Human Community, the former enemy command of the White Qi, Alexander, Mengtian, and Mercury and their affiliated fleets were ordered to enter the first level combat state immediately. The mission of the former enemy command Wang Jian and its fleet remained unchanged, and they went to the Auriga-LC system for strategic garrison. ”

Yang Wenzhi's expression remained unchanged, he didn't even look away, and he didn't answer immediately—he knew that there must be orders next.

Sure enough, after a pause, Qin Weiguo continued: "At the same time, the former enemy command must complete the in-depth simulation and deduction analysis of the enemy's surprise attack within a week, and collect and sort out all the results. Special attention should be paid to the chain reaction caused by the second generation of rice grains. ”

"Yes!" Yang Wenzhi's eyes flashed, and he responded instantly.

"Hmm." Qin Weiguo's serious expression softened slightly, and he said with a slight smile: "Don't guess, just wait for the next order." ”

"Boss, what you said, how can we not guess!" Zeng Yuanhai immediately hit the snake with the stick: "Are you going to fight?" ”

"That's none of your business."

"I..." Zeng Yuanhai was speechless for a while.

"Well, knowing you're drinking today, I wish you all a Happy New Year and a Merry Christmas."

"Then, get ready, lads. If you really want to fight...... So next..."Qin Weiguo's gaze swept over everyone one by one, his expression was serious and resolute: "This is not a question of war, not a matter of sacrifice, but a question of strategic planning for the entire human civilization in the coming decades or even hundreds of years, and a question of confidence in the entire human civilization!" ”

"So, we must not lose!"

……

The picture of Qin Weiguo disappeared, but everyone in the office fell into a collective silence.

There is a fight, which is really good.

But when there is a huge disparity in the number of enemies and friends, you must complete the battle that you must win...... This kind of pressure instantly made everyone as heavy as Mount Tai on their backs and speechless.

A few seconds later, Yang Wenzhi's eyes flashed, and he took a deep breath and sat down quickly.

"Keep drinking!"

…

…

500 million light-years away, the Sacred Galaxy.

Mobis, a planet No. 4 located in the outer ring of the habitable zone of the main-sequence star. If you look at it from the far reaches of space, this planet has long lost the shape of a natural planet.

With the planet Mobis as the center, it is surrounded by several extremely large artificial star rings, which are intertwined and scattered, as if the trajectory of electrons orbiting the nucleus of an atom, enveloping the planet Mobis.

On the star ring, there are countless man-made cities, each of which is brightly lit up like a pearl in the night sky. The star rings that connect these cities are also incomparably shining, like strips of light in the night sky.

And at the intersection of the star rings, a huge fully enclosed sphere emitted a dazzling white light, it was incomparably huge, like an artificial sun, shining in space.

Countless spaceships docked at the various exits of the ring, and from time to time the ships took off and landed, and then flew towards a giant artificial ring in space.

If human beings see it, they can know at a glance that this ring is the legendary man-made singularity.

……

The light flowed on the ring, and in an instant, a spaceship appeared from the void. After a few moments, it took off to a fast start, skimming towards a corner of the artificial ring.

On the ship, Hall sat by the window and slowly opened his eyes.

He first glanced at the star ring like a light strip, then looked at the ball of light that looked like a satellite and connected to the artificial star ring, and in silence, he bowed his head slightly, and at the same time stroked his left hand to his right chest.

This is every Holy Empire's tribute to Promised Land.

Yes, that ball of light is the "Promised Land".

After leaving behind a cosmic miracle, the godlike ancestors of the Holy Empire went to the Promised Land and never appeared "in person" again.

But everyone knows that the ancestors have not disappeared, but have always guarded the sacred civilization, guarded their descendants, and given future generations a legacy that is enough to shine forever.

After saluting, Hall slowly withdrew his gaze and closed his eyes again.

Half a month ago, he left the base of the No. 31 galaxy, and originally planned to return directly to the home planet, but when he left, he changed his mind and went to the No. 32 and No. 30 bases first.

These two bases, numbered close to his base, are also located closest to his mission area, which means that in case of a situation that gets out of control, these two bases can directly support him.

It's just that the people in charge of these two bases don't usually have much contact with him, and they can only be regarded as nodding friends, so to get their assistance suddenly, in addition to the direct orders of the legion, he also needs a personal relationship - fortunately, the heads of those two bases are quite good, and after he promised the phase change metal, these people quickly agreed to support him.

Well, Hall knew that these people were willing to help him, and probably more from the perspective of having fun - the two bases had been stable for hundreds of years. In their words, they are almost sick with bedsores.

There's an enemy that looks quite interesting, and they don't want to miss it.

And they also agree with Hall's philosophy, that is, compared to such a rapidly developing civilization, although the Execution Legion is powerful, many of its technologies are still thousands of years old. The process is cooked, the cost is low... But it's lagging behind!

A non-military organization like the Sumaya Enlightenment Association, the spaceship can run so fast...... How can you make the Legion embarrassed?

The militants of the Legion have long had a suggestion to destroy those Sumaya, but as soon as they mention Sumaya's spaceship, they hate it - they can't beat it, but you can't catch up!

Now, if there is a real opportunity to get the new technology of the Enlightenment Association and complete the equipment upgrade of the legion, it is always a good thing for the legion.

Even if humans are not a dish, they can counterattack Sumaya in the future and borrow his bones to boil his oil!

"Your Excellency, the merger will take place in a minute, so please be ready."

A hint from the autopilot system sounded in his ears, and Hall opened his eyes again.

By this time, his ship had reached the top of the ring.

From a distance, the entire ring belt can be seen. He could even see the fast-flying orbital passage in the transparent loop diagonally above, as well as some pedestrians taking a leisurely stroll.

Looking down, he could also see the "farmers" who were hoeing and plowing in the fields.

Well, the farmers here, they are purely retro lovers.

Long before 10,000 years, the sages of Promised Land built artificial food factories on the ground, completely freeing civilization from labor, and also allowing the people of the empire to move to... A road of no return where you eat and wait for death.

The ship docked, and Hall slowly walked out of the bin, and a moment later, a legion's exclusive orbital pass stopped in front of him.

"Where are you going, Chief Hall?" The driver was a young-looking young man, and looking back, the young man had no hiding his adoration for Hall.

After all, Hall is one of the top 10 CEOs out of 108.

"Well, let's go to the Prophet's House first."

"Okay, sit down, we're going to go down 200,000 kilometers."

As the young man's voice fell, the passer began to slowly activate, and a moment later it drove into an avenue that pointed to the ground.

This road, which is directly connected to the ground, is called Tongtian.
