Mecha and Knife

Like a tacit understanding.

When Ji Rong Xinyue drove Xingyue and landed on the hangar of Xinyuehu, Ji Xinghe opened his eyes.

Just as he unfastened his seat belt, a small figure in combat uniform and helmet rushed over.

Ji Rong Xinyue, who is already over 1.3 meters tall, can actually be described as tall compared to her peers on Azure Star, but when she runs among the mechas over 4 meters in height, she looks extraordinarily tall. Petite.

Fortunately, Ji Xinghe is tall enough, at 1.95 meters tall, he can still hold Ji Rong Xinyue in his arms.

In a few years, I won't be able to hug my granddaughter like this.

Ji Xinghe suddenly felt a little regretful. Compared with a normal grandfather, he spent too little time holding his granddaughter.

It's not as good as the medical staff at Base No. 6 who watched Ji Rong Xinyue grow up.

The grandpa and grandson, who didn't make a sound, enjoyed a moment of tranquility.

But in this tranquility, Ji Xinghe felt that something was wrong, this space battleship... was flying.

Before she had time to think about it, Ji Rong Xinyue let go of her hand, and Ji Xinghe also let go.

The child took three steps back, his gaze gradually became firmer, and he stood at attention and saluted.

"Galaxy Mecha Independent Corps, captain of the youth training team, Ji Rong Xinyue, reports to the regiment leader."

Ji Xinghe did not stand at attention to salute, he took a step forward, touched Ji Rong Xinyue's head, and asked softly, "What happened?"

Ji Rong Xinyue pouted, somewhat dissatisfied with Ji Xinghe's response, but immediately explained happily.

"Uncle Su said that three imperial space battleships appeared above us. In order to prevent us from being chased and beaten by them, we must first land on the space battleship Xinyuehu..."

Time went back to five minutes ago.

Just when Xinyuehu arrived at the location where Jirong Xinyue and others were located, the siren sounded in the command center of Xinyuehu.

In fact, the sound should have sounded in the hangar, but the crew who didn't want to disturb Ji Xinghe's rest turned off the hangar's broadcasting system in advance.

All crew members on the Xinyuehu in wartime must wear protective helmets to avoid death due to lack of oxygen caused by air leakage caused by the breach of the bulkhead.

The helmets all have communication functions, so when the alarm sounds on the communication channel of everyone except Ji Xinghe, they will know what happened immediately.

"We're locked down."

"It's an Imperial spaceship."

"Our warship is within the attack range of the enemy warship and is being locked by the enemy warship."

Of the six space battleships sent by the empire, three of them appeared in the airspace over Base No. 5, and they were about to land on the Xinyuehu, which was more than 40 kilometers away from Base No. 5, and Ji Rong Xinyue and others were waiting here. , are all within their strike range.

"Board, get them on board immediately, everyone, all on board."

Temporary captain Zhao Chenguang gave the order very decisively.

After receiving the order, the 30 federal mechas and the reconnaissance vehicle where Su He was located started to board the ship without any hesitation after letting Ji Rong Xinyue drive Xingyue to board the ship first.

This order, as well as their behavior, is actually against the rules. The Xinyuehu should not land when it is within the attack range of the imperial warship.

After the forced landing, it should also take off as soon as Jirong Xinyue boarded the ship. In about a minute at night, the Xinyuehu may be destroyed.

The 30 federal mecha fighters who stayed in place, as well as Su He, would replace the Xinyuehu space battleship and become the attack target of the imperial space battleship.

For Zhao Chenguang, he shouldn't care.

Compared to the value of Xinyuehu, they can be sacrificed.

But because of Ji Xinghe and Ji Rong Xinyue, Zhao Chenguang made a decisive decision.

It is impossible for him to keep Ji Rong Xinyue here. If Ji Rong Xinyue and others are discovered by the imperial space battleship, the consequences will be beyond his imagination and many people.

After letting Ji Rongxinyue board the ship, it was only natural for Su He and others to board the ship. The boarding speed of the 30 mechas was very fast, and Su He's reconnaissance vehicle could stay in place or use the automatic driving program. Let it return to base five by itself.

The anti-missile system of the Xinyuehu has been activated, and it is ready to meet the fire attack of the imperial warship.

Zhao Chenguang firmly believed that the three Imperial Space Battleships being pursued by the Federation Fleet could not successfully hit the Central Moon Fox.

The hatch, which was already open, began to close after Su He and others boarded the ship, and the engine roared before the hatch closed.

The space battleship Xinyuehu took off smoothly, and then began to accelerate.

"Warning, our ship has been locked by an enemy ship."

"Missile attack detected."

"The interception program has been activated, evade immediately..."

In the command center of the Xinyuehu, all the crew members performed their duties. After the Xinyuehu successfully took off, this situation was a bit normal for them.

In the sky of alien stars, the Federal Fleet they represent has the final say.

Ji Xinghe, who finally knew the cause and effect, had no right to speak at this time. This was something he was not good at, so he could only nervously grab Ji Rong Xinyue's arm and return to the safety seat.

Hold on and hold on.

In fact, he doesn't need to do this, he can maintain his balance no matter how bumpy the situation is, but when Ji Rong Xinyue is by his side, he must go all out.

The unexpected situation did not make Ji Rong Xinyue panic, she was calmer than many adults in the hangar.

There is some obvious joy in the eyes: it's good that you don't have to be separated from grandpa.

Su He, who was wearing the individual exoskeleton armor, came over at this moment. There was a magnetic attraction device on the soles of his feet, and he walked on the ground in the shaky space battleship.

Taking off his helmet, Su He lowered his head in shame.

"Old Ji, I..."

"You didn't do anything wrong, you did a good job, and it's not your fault."

Ji Xinghe interrupted Su He's words, causing Su He to look up in surprise. When the two looked at each other, Su He felt Ji Xinghe's sincere eyes.

"sorry."

"There's really no need to say I'm sorry."

"kindness."

After Su He responded, he fell silent, and stood quietly beside Ji Xinghe and Ji Rong Xinyue. Wearing individual exoskeleton armor, he didn't look like a war reporter, but a personal guard.

He actually has a lot to say and a lot to ask, but he knows the timing is wrong.

In the silence, an excited voice suddenly sounded from the reopened PA system of the hangar.

"Our side successfully shot down an enemy warship."

Cheers followed, and out of the six space battleships dispatched by the empire this time, there are only two left.

"The enemy's remaining warships have been forced to leave the airspace above the No. 5 base theater, and our ship has withdrawn from the pursuit sequence."

This sound made many people in the hangar take off their protective helmets.

Knowing that they were safe, Ji Xinghe breathed a sigh of relief, but a new problem suddenly appeared.

What should Ji Rong Xinyue do?

Let Xinyuehu return to base No. 5, and send Ji Rong Xinyue back?

Ji Xinghe looked at the viewing window on the helmet, and with the focus of his eyes and the specific brain waves released, he completed the operation without using his hands.

The position and course of Xinyuehu appeared in his sight.

After being pursued briefly, and then participating in the pursuit sequence of the federal fleet, the Xinyuehu has appeared in the airspace more than a thousand kilometers away from the No. 5 base.

It is closer to the Xinghe team that was hunted down, and the current course is exactly where the Xinghe team is.

"Colonel Ji Xinghe."

When Ji Xinghe was hesitating, Zhao Chenguang's voice rang in his ears.

"Because the current chasing troops of the Galaxy Squad are very close to them, and the area is within the firing range of the main force of the Empire, we cannot rescue them by landing and taking them away."

"We want to send you and the Xingyue you are driving to the predetermined combat area to support your Xinghe team according to the original plan. Then, we will cruise over your area and provide fire support to you and the Xinghe team. "

"Colonel Ji Xinghe, what is your order?"

Tu Yuan, who was listening, suddenly felt very hurt.

Just now when he was on the same communication channel as Ji Xinghe and Ji Rong Xinyue, Ji Rong Xinyue hung up the communication without hesitation, and then Ji Xinghe also hung up the communication, and went to find a place to fall asleep.

It's fine for the grandpa and grandson to ignore him.

Now, even Zhao Chenguang, who he had just promoted, as the captain of the only two space battleships in his command sequence, ignored him as the supreme commander and asked Ji Xinghe for orders...

when i die?

Tu Yuan still didn't give up, he expected Ji Xinghe to ask him, the commander, for advice at such a time.

But Ji Xinghe really ignored him.

"So be it."

that's all? So what? People ask you for orders, and you say that's it?

This unruly answer gave Tu Yuan the urge to mention Ji Xinghe, but he couldn't say anything after all.

Bowl……

"yes."

Zhao Chenguang understood the meaning of "that's it", and ordered the Xinyuehu to approach the location of the Xinghe team, and then prepared to land in a safe area.

They didn't load the orbital airborne launch platform, so they could only put Ji Xinghe down in this way.

Inside the hangar, Ji Xinghe looked at Ji Rong Xinyue with eyes full of expectation. He knew what Ji Rong Xinyue was looking forward to.

"When you grow up a bit, I'll take you with me."

"But if I get older, Xingyue's cockpit won't be able to fit the two of us."

"After this time, I will ask Uncle Shen to modify Xingyue. In addition to the twelfth-generation core engine, there is also a tungsten steel alloy. By then, Xingyue can be made bigger."

"Where is the extra tungsten steel alloy? Aren't we using it to make new general armor for you, Grandpa?"

"The empire has them. They have sent three duke-level mechas this time, all of which are made of tungsten steel alloy. Grandpa is going to get them back."

"Okay, grandpa is going to grab it back, and then transform Xingyue. From now on, grandpa and I will go grab it together, and give each of the uncles in the Xinghe team a mecha made of tungsten steel alloy."

"Then we're going to grab a lot, you forgot, the Xinghe team is no longer a team."

"With Grandpa here, I will definitely be able to grab enough, and I am also very strong."

"Yeah, Xinxin is very strong, and Xinxin is very good at driving Xingyue."

While the grandfather and grandson were talking, the Xinyuehu had successfully landed, 70 kilometers away from where the Xinghe team was at this time.

This is a safe distance that the empire cannot find.

Ji Xinghe had already entered Xingyue's cockpit, he glanced at Ji Rong Xinyue sitting on the safety seat, and waved.

Ji Rong Xinyue sat upright and saluted.

She wanted to get up and stand at attention, but Ji Xinghe just told her not to take off her seat belt, and not to leave the sight of Su He, Jin Hai and other mecha fighters.

At this time, she is very obedient.

The hatch finally opened, Xingyue Yijia took the lead, and behind her were sixty Federation mechas, and they were going to support the Xinghe team with Ji Xinghe.

From a certain point of view, they left Xinyuehu also to lose weight for Xinyuehu. In addition to the burden brought by the hundreds of captured imperial mechas, the thirty mechas in the No. 5 base have already allowed Xinyuehu to reach the maximum load-bearing capacity.

If Xinyuehu hadn't poured a large amount of ammunition before, in the high-altitude combat of being chased and counter-chased just now, problems had already occurred due to the high load.

When the sixty-one Federation mechs began to run across the alien planet, Xinyuehu closed the hatch and took off again.

"Colonel Ji Xinghe."

Zhao Chenguang's voice rang in Ji Xinghe's ear alone.

"The final fortress has been recovered and is being repaired. The God's Light of Retribution has cooled down and can be launched again. If necessary, please don't hesitate to order directly."

Ji Xinghe glanced at the sixty federal mechas following him, and he hesitated slightly as he thought about the fifteen Zhanshan-level mechas of the Xinghe team.

None of these mechs can block the divine punishment that does not distinguish between friend and foe.

If the Light of God's Retribution is used, it means that even their mech's electronic components will be destroyed together. This time, the empire sent three duke-level mechas, because they are made of tungsten steel alloy, they can all block the light of God's Retribution. Light.

so……

Ji Xinghe thought of Ji Rong Xinyue who was inside the Xinyuehu, and then spoke.

"I see."

"Then Xie Rui?"

"Let him out."

"yes."
