Chapter 148: The military flag is sleeping or fluttering (Part 1)
Cold and dead, like a stone thrown deep in the 5460 glacier. Xu Le is not unfamiliar with this personality. After leaving Donglin, he has also met many such people.
He had made some speculations about the character of the mysterious Charter Bureau official in advance, but he did not expect that such a cold and hard-working official with absolute power could maintain a calm silence during these dozens of days of work, and remain calm and silent so much that he had no sense of existence.
Until this man was sunny lunch time, Xu Le was a little surprised to find that he still didn't remember the other person's name.
"It can't be a robot, right?" He smiled bitterly and looked at the curly hair on the Charter Bureau's official post. He looked at such a guy who was not in the air and salt. He seemed to have no better way than turning around and leaving to prepare for the afternoon mission.
After lunch, the seven team members who had long been accustomed to the task process skillfully sorted out their light equipment and firearms, divided them into two teams, stepped out of the gate of the military camp, and drove to the forwarding base in military vehicles.
The simple road outside the military camp was filled with various vehicles, and there were heavy military m52 mechas moving slowly on the hills in the distance, and the convoy was moving much slower than usual.
Xu Le sat in the passenger seat and said worriedly: "Is the general attack about to start? But the progress of the website is still much worse."
Starting six days ago, the Federation fleet hanging in the space of Planet 163 began to release combatants and various heavy equipment to the ground at a frequency of several times or even dozens of times. The sky was illuminated by the lights of heavy transport ships for several nights. Under the cover of fierce aerial firepower, at least seven reorganized mechanics landed in various areas of the planet.
The seventh convoy parked on the side of the road and made way for the multi-axle heavy trucks coming ahead. The team members looked at the missiles carried above the heavy truck in silence. They were slightly excited and felt a little nervous.
"The Xilin Military Region is under too much pressure. The ground military operations of 163 and 3320 have been stagnant for more than two months. The Federal Parliament has long been unable to hold back, and the President cannot let Commander Zhong drag it on forever."
Magnolia lit a cigarette with a bang and continued: "This is a Hurricane II missile. The missile base behind the mountain should be on standby, and the general attack will not exceed this week at the latest."
"Why are you so anxious?" Xu Le said in disagreement: "So many groups are laying the Internet and spending more than one day. When the general attack is on the battlefield, the soldiers can have more protection. It is impossible to have to be advanced because of political pressure."
Magnolia took a puff of cigarette and sighed softly. They were just ordinary members of the army and could not affect the command of the big battle situation.
More than a dozen multi-axle heavy trucks that had been continuously traveling slowly towards the missile base behind the mountain. The convoy of seven groups restarted. Half an hour had passed. However, the convoy had just started, but it was forced to stop.
"Fuck!" Xipeng, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, cursed in annoyance.
After entering the front line, the nephew of the Deputy Speaker of the Federal Government was transferred to Xu Le as a battlefield command liaison soldier. It seemed that people deliberately brought him closer to the leadership of the troops because of his identity to make him safer. But in fact, everyone in the seventh group knew that this was not the case...
In few battles, Xu Le, the highest military commander, always appears in the most tense area and is the last to leave the battlefield. Following this young master, not only does he not enjoy the treatment of the leader first, but he has to bear more dangers.
Maybe it was an individual difference, maybe it was because of feeling the hostility of the seven groups of officers, or maybe it was because of thinking that they were being deliberately tortured, so Xipeng's mood in the past few dozen days was not as pleasant as his companions. On the contrary, he was a little depressed. Today, he was blocked on the road for so long, and finally couldn't help but say a rough sentence.
"Shut up!" Xu Le turned around and looked at him, took off the sunglasses on his nose, a hint of anger and coldness flashed in his eyes, and the others sitting in the car also glared at him fiercely.
Xipeng was suffocated, but he could not have the courage to refute. The seven groups were a strange team. Except for the direct military order of the Ministry of National Defense, all the rules were... Lieutenant Colonel Xu Le's words. This may be a hidden rule, but it is a hidden rule that each seven groups of members dare not resist.
A lonely military vehicle drove in front of the base. The body was worn and inconspicuous. However, including seven convoys, hundreds of military vehicles were parked on the side of the road at the same time, waiting quietly and respectfully for the military vehicle to pass through.
A hint of shock flashed through Xipeng's pupils, and he finally understood why the officers in the car looked at him with that kind of eyes.
...
"The tentative attack on the Rocky Mountains began last night." Magnolia looked at the military vehicle quietly and said in a low voice: "More than 300 people were killed."
After saying this, he pushed open the car door and walked down. Xu Le held his sunglasses tightly and walked down. Then everyone walked under the military car, stood on both sides of the road, took off the military caps above his head, and raised his hand silently to salute.
On that lonely military vehicle, there was a black coffin with only symbolic meaning. The cruelty of modern interstellar wars was difficult to keep the horse-dressed corpse on the battlefield. The federal military has always used this simple ceremony to say goodbye to his comrades.
The black coffin is covered with a bright federal military flag, and countless fragrant bones are buried on this planet.
