Interstellar Fairy Tale

It has been nearly a month since the Golden Empire cosmos fleet occupied the artificial celestial body of Royce. During this time, both the Republic of Seth and the military regime of Mars have taken a cautious attitude towards this alien galaxy fleet. . Regardless of the fact that the Republic of Seth, which was unable to retake the artificial celestial body of Royce, was the officers and men of the Sixth Fleet and Eighth Fleet of the Mars Space Fleet who had barely escaped the last battle, they were still brooding about the last battle, of course. , they are not afraid of death, uphold the worship of absolute power, and they even look forward to competing with this fleet again, and it will become more and more intense with time. However, it is very obvious that the Mars military government and the commander of the Kanon fortress, Terry, will not allow them to do so. Even the fleet commanders, Colonel Edgar and Colonel Hansen, are also trying to calm the soldiers' occasional agitation. Emotional effort.

As a commander who has always been unpretentious, but is still respected by the soldiers of the fleet, Colonel Edgar seldom used severe and rude orders to stop a certain behavior of the soldiers, but this time, he unusually used a very serious and undeniable tone. , conveyed an order from Hercules, the capital of the planet Mars: "You guys, as a proud member of the Mars universe fleet, before realizing your personal heroic plot, the first thing you need to consider is to defend the country and the people! You are now in the Kanon military fortress, standing here unharmed and listening to my speech. Your comrades exchanged their lives and blood for it! Before you are carried away by blood and war, you must realize that once you board Get on the battleship, set up the light cannons, you will carry more than yourself! Think about how to escape for you—yes, escape! Those soldiers who died in battle, can you spend such money without any scruples? life?! Answer me, can you?!"

Colonel Edgar's heavy question, through the light transmission device in the fortress command center, sounded throughout the Canon military fortress. Including the soldiers who experienced the last war, and those who stayed in the Kanon military fortress and witnessed the entire battle, all stood up straight, their expressions were solemn, and they did not say a word.

Colonel Edgar scanned the audience. Since he entered the army, starting from a soldier, he has followed the Sixth Fleet to gallop in the universe that can be reached. In these decades, from ordinary soldiers to single fighter pilots , the single ship commander, the staff of the chief commander, and until he became the commander of the sixth fleet, standing in front of the podium, he experienced a total of more than 130 battles, and almost every battle was won. Even in the battle that lost its goodwill at the beginning, the entire mixed fleet still occupied the planet that stubbornly resisted until the end after paying a heavy price. Even if the planet has become scarred, the strong and resilient Mars people, after setting foot on the planet, facing the eyes of the planet's aborigines or hatred or fear, still strictly follow the military regulations, maintain law and order, develop energy, Set up an economic structure and a government organization with the characteristics of Mars. After the transitional government left office, half of the first democratically elected government was the planet's natives, and the other half were Mars soldiers who voluntarily stayed in the occupation of the planet. They were more or less wounded in battle and could no longer serve in the army. In the words of the Mars military: "Since we can't continue to fly one-man fighter jets and operate light cannons, let's do what we can."

Edgar always thought that one day in the future, he would also become one of these soldiers. In the distant future, he would stay on a certain frontier planet and be an idler working in a government agency. Of course, baby Shang Ping It's even better to be by his side.

However, after the battle with the Golden Fleet, Edgar's belief in the first half of his life was slightly shaken.

If he had never felt anything wrong with occupying other planets by force before, Edgar could feel the helplessness and indignation of the aborigines of the occupied planets after changing roles and becoming a weaker party. Although the Mars people have always believed that their occupation brought advancement and civilization - as some countries of the Earth Age have claimed in certain centuries - this is the case when Shang Ping talked to Edgar about the Mars army system at a certain time. It was mentioned by chance, at the time, Edgar just laughed it off. Now it seems that perhaps Baby Shang Ping is right.

Mars people, are you a little self-righteous?

Just like the current Golden Empire fleet, relying on its strength, it completely dominates the Muse Galaxy.

Edgar thought about it a lot, but realized that these words could not be said to anyone, not even Hansen, let alone Fortress Commander Terry. That stubborn guy will only bring him to court-martial as a heretic radical.

"Hey... baby, uncle misses you so much..."

Edgar left the conference hall and walked to the huge landing screen. Since the Golden Empire cosmos fleet occupied Royce, the commander of the Kanon military fortress announced that the entire fortress had entered the first level of martial law, and the lifting period had not yet been determined. The landing screen in front of Edgar was actually an isolation barrier covering the entire fortress, which could minimize the impact of particle cannons and laser cannons on the fortress. Although it may not be able to block all the shells, it is enough to make some people in the fort feel relatively safe. The premise is that they have not personally experienced the last battle, and have not seen with their own eyes how terrible the firepower of the Golden Empire's space fleet is.

"Lord Colonel."

A somewhat unfamiliar voice came from behind Edgar, in a very polite and polite tone. Colonel Edgar turned his head and recognized that the young man behind him was the Madoff Military Academy graduate who had appeared in Commander Terry's office when he and Hansen had retreated from the battlefield in embarrassment.

"You are…"

"Reporting Colonel, I am Rochette, I belong to the Eighth Fleet, the second detachment of the single fighter."

"Oh, it's you."

Edgar was not good at remembering people's names, but he was impressed by Rochette. This young man had to witness the most embarrassing scene in his 41-year life, which had to be impressive.

"Do you have something to say to me? Or do you think my previous remarks were inappropriate?"

"No, Colonel, on the contrary, I agree with you completely."

"Oh?"

"I believe you will not forget the simulated battle that Madoff Military Academy students fought with the Eighth Fleet's single-man fighter unit. I was also one of them. Having experienced that battle, I deeply understand a truth. An enemy who is stronger than oneself, with an irrational and full of blood, will not work at all."

Rochette's expression was serious and his speech was slow, but with a persuasive force, Colonel Edgar believed his words.

"So, I don't think it's a shame to accumulate strength and show weakness before there is no strength to contend with the enemy."

"Young man, are you interested in coming to the Sixth Fleet?"

Colonel Edgar smiled, but Rochette shook his head.

"Thank you for your appreciation, but Xiaguan has no such plans at present."

From "I" to "Xiaguan", obviously, Rochette has consciously stopped this topic, and Colonel Edgar does not intend to continue to embarrass him. He had a rare admiration for this young man, even though his performance in the last mock battle was a little bad. However, this appreciation only lasted until Lochte said another thing.

"Lord Colonel, in fact, before I came to the Kanon military fortress, I confessed to my sweetheart. Because of this, I need to be more strict with myself. When I meet again one day in the future, I will be qualified to give him a gift. Bunch of bright red roses."

"Sweetheart?"

Colonel Edgar clasped Rochette's shoulders, "Can you tell me?"

Rochette had no intention of concealing, and felt that there was no need to conceal it, but soon, he would regret his frankness.

"Black-haired boy? Participated in the last mock battle and performed very well?"

"Yes. He has flowing black hair and charming black eyes. Although he is not tall, he is very manly! After the last mock battle, many graduating students fell in love with him, but, I took advantage of the opportunity to speak on behalf of all the graduate students to make a confession..."

The young man talked about his love incessantly without noticing Colonel Edgar's blue face and complicated eyes.

Well, he said that the baby is old enough to find a lover, but that doesn't mean he doesn't care about the guy who goes after the baby!

Colonel Edgar looked at Rochette in front of him and had to admit that he was in a very complicated mood right now. Punch, knock out a few of his front teeth, and make him shut his mouth.

Commander Terry of Canon Fortress was sitting at the large desk. Staff Crete had returned from Hercules, bringing back the order of Commander-in-Chief David South and the authorization document of Chief Executive Martin. Both powerful figures gave Commander Terry the right to act in his own right when necessary.

"What exactly does that mean?"

Commander Terry frowned. On the one hand, he wanted to suppress the belligerent mood, and on the other hand, he authorized him to act in his rights?

How can this be explained?

Crete apparently also had a headache for this order. He believes that this order is inseparable from Liu Xi, the president of the Republic of Seth who is currently staying in Hercules, the capital of Mars.

The young president, personable, handsome, intelligent and long-sleeved dancers. He is not like a politician, but more like a performer. At least through his efforts during this period of time, most of the Mars media has been full of goodwill towards his reports, and public opinion has gradually turned to Mars and Seth to work together to catch up with him. Walk closer to the alien enemy entrenched in the Royce artificial celestial body.

"It's a really puzzling thing."

Commander Terry and his staff, Crete, looked at each other. The Kanon military fortress could also receive news reports from Mars. Commander Terry did not comment on the president from the Republic of Seth. I like this kind of political figure, but Colonel Edgar described Liu Xi as a friend with fangs.

"This friend's fangs are currently well hidden. When he needs Mars' help, he will not show his sharp fangs. Accepting him temporarily is not necessarily a bad thing."

It is a pity that Colonel Edgar's remarks were only privately spoken to Colonel Hansen. His laziness made him never think of writing this point of view into a report to the military, which made Commander Terry very He had a headache, but he couldn't find any reason to accuse him.

According to Colonel Edgar, he is a soldier, a fleet commander, and there is no need to waste time on this kind of government think tank and staff need to do.

"Until things become clear, at least until Mars has not decided whether to cooperate with Seth, I hope the current situation can be maintained, provided that the fleet in the Royce celestial body does not make some moves."

Commander Terry's worries are not without reason. Not long ago, the artificial celestial body of Royce occupied by the Golden Empire space fleet did undergo some changes. A small group of black battleships left the artificial celestial body and passed through the warp outside the celestial body. The jumping particle left the celestial body. After Commander Terry got the news, he immediately summoned Colonel Hansen and Colonel Edgar. Both Seth and Mars people knew that Royce and Canon, who guarded the cosmic waterway, were outside the celestial body. The space jumping particle, apart from leading to the currently occupied colonial planet, the only place it can reach is the Muse Galaxy!

As long as the correct coordinates and distance are mastered, the Golden Empire Space Fleet can even enter the Muse Galaxy without disturbing the patrol fleet stationed outside the Muse Galaxy!

Hopefully the people at Seth are smart enough to have taken the relevant steps. At least when Commander Terry sent the message back to the capital, the report from the capital already indicated that Mars had managed to shut down the warp jumping particle that connected Royce and Mars after the Royce artificial celestial body was occupied. .

However, Commander Terry ignored another planet, or rather, he never thought that the Golden Empire space fleet would be related to that planet.

This is not a big mistake, but it is equally troublesome.
