Chapter 8 Chapter 6 The General

However, no matter how much she cried, she couldn't bring back the girl's sixteen-year-old life.A low-explosive ricochet hit her heart, puncturing a wound, and fatal blood loss claimed her life in just a few minutes. At this moment, Yao De's life was also changed. The same panic-stricken Yuan Jixiang wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, took out a heavy gun from the bar, and took Ding Yu, Shui Kesi, and Hai Zhiyao to the dark alley next to the back door, but they did not find the Tianlongtang members. trace. However, this matter can never be so kind. The death of Ren Qinghe has turned this simple conflict into a deep hatred that cannot be resolved.

In the early hours of the morning, Ren Qinghe's body was still quietly lying on a long table in the "Wandering Ruins", her face was still elegant and beautiful, Yuan Jixiang carefully cleaned the blood on her face, Put on the most expensive make-up. Yuan Jixiang sat quietly in the darkness, and after a long time, she heard a "wow" sound from the back door of the bar. From behind the door came out like a ghost, Tiao De with a dull complexion. He was haggard at the moment, and in just one night, a few strands of white hair had appeared on his hairline. And Jeff Ren didn't wear a mask or any makeup on his face, his peerless handsome face was like a vengeful ghost at the moment, cold and silent.

Yuan Jixiang sat behind the bar, and pressed a small remote control in her hand, and the stage of the bar opened up a huge space, which was filled with all kinds of golden weapons in an orderly manner! Yuan Gang, the former owner of the "Wandering Ruins" bar, was originally a formidable character straddling black and white. Although he left the rivers and lakes after middle age, he still has the most terrifying and powerful heavy weapon in the city. Yao De, Ren Jiefu, Ding Yu, Shui Kesi, and Hai Zhiyao quietly selected a weapon they used, and weighed it in their hands. Yao De and Ren Jiefu looked at each other, then walked out slowly.

However, after walking a few steps, everyone stopped in unison, showing surprise. Because Yuan Jixiang, the current owner of the bar, also copied two heavy weapons and followed behind them. Jeff Ren coughed lightly and shook his head. "Xiao Xiang, it's okay," he said softly, his beautiful blue eyes shining under the dim light, "You still have to take care of Uncle Yuan's bar, our business, let us go! As long as there is a fate , we will definitely be back.” Yuan Jixiang smiled lightly and shook her head. "Qinghe once said this to me once," Yuan Jixiang seemed to be in a calm mood, as if she was narrating a girl's heart, but two lines of tears flowed down her face, "She said, 'Xiaoxiang, if I To marry Yao De, I don’t want anyone, I just want you to be my bridesmaid!’” She freed her hand and wiped away her tears, “I know my father’s hard work is here, but I also know that Qing He will be very lonely , wouldn't it be the best thing if we could go and accompany her together?"

Jeff Ren looked at her determined expression, and wanted to say something more, but he didn't speak again. "There is something I have never told you," Yuan Jixiang said: "I know a little about the 'Tianlongtang'. Their power is definitely not just in a small place like our city. Their backstage points directly at the big families in the imperial capital." She looked at Yao De and the others with a self-deprecating smile, "and what you are going to do, no matter whether it is successful or not, is in the eyes of these gang leaders. , you are already a few people who can no longer let you live in this world."

Tall and bright, she continued to speak leisurely, as if she was not talking about a matter of life and death, but just a daily trivial matter. "If you don't come back, I don't have to open my bar anymore. After all, it's impossible to find a rock team like 'Rainbow Poison', right?" She laughed: "So I I want to go with you, and if I want to come back, I will come back with you!" Yao De nodded, and suddenly, he also shed tears. "Everything happened because of me. Jeff was right. I was an idiot. In the end, I killed Qing He." His tears flowed down his cheeks like an endless river. He didn't wipe it down, he just let it flow down his face, "I can't say anything about what happened today, I just want to tell everyone that one day, I will return all the kindness I owe you , it doesn’t matter even if you take my life, because even if I die ten times, I won’t be able to repay your kindness.”

While weeping, he walked over, tied Ren Qinghe's body on his back, passed the crowd, and walked out proudly. However, in his mouth, he softly whispered to Ren Qinghe who had been dead for a long time. "Qing He, I'm going, you watch carefully, those who killed you, as long as they did something wrong, I must let them know that as long as there is me in this world, there must be justice and justice!" At this time, at the time when night and day meet, the sky is extremely dark, and it is the brightest and darkest moment before dawn. Yao De, Ren Jiefu, Yuan Jixiang and others cast long shadows in the night.

In the distant sky, the gigantic figure of the centaur starship is still quietly suspended in the air. On the way to the headquarters of the "Tianlongtang", Yao De occasionally looked up at the centaur starship in the sky, and felt a subtle feeling in his heart. Thinking of it, I may not be able to see the sun of tomorrow. When the flames of the fierce explosion lit up in a corner of the city, Morido, the famous general of the French Republic, was looking out of the window, quietly looking at the Centaur giant ship, looking down from the tall buildings of the Federal Military Council Hall, the flames did not It wasn't obvious, because it was almost noon at the moment, and even though it was so far away, the light could still be seen and the violence of the explosion could be seen, but from his perspective, it looked like a small wildfire on the plain in the distance.

At the beginning, when Morido first saw the flame, he felt a sudden shock in his heart, worried that the centaur starship suspended in mid-air had already started to attack. However, the fire only appeared in a fixed area, and did not spread in all directions. It didn't look like a bombing from the sky, but rather a strong explosive was cited. But for the sake of caution, he beckoned a young staff officer from the city and pointed to the flame. "Come and see," he asked, "what's that place?" The young staff officer glanced over his head and frowned suspiciously.

"It's an animal slaughterhouse in the city, at least on the surface," said the young staff officer's badge, which indicated that he was a member of the Intelligence Headquarters. "However, it's actually the headquarters of the gang 'Tianlongtang' in the city." "Oh!" Morido nodded, indicating that he could leave. If it wasn't for the events related to Star Wars, Morido would be relieved, because the real big trouble comes from time and space thousands of light-years away. Once Star Wars breaks out, the explosions of these gangsters will be trivial.

At this time, the door of the meeting hall opened with a bang, and the highest chiefs of various military regions with bright costumes walked in one after another. Many of them held powerful force enough to destroy an area, but seeing such a battle, Morido I always feel that the most absurd thing in life is this. The fate of millions of people is often decided by such a bunch of middle-aged and elderly guys. Today's topic of discussion is a major issue related to the direction of the earth's army in the future, because the term of the original military committee chairman, General Crewe, has expired, and a new chairman must be elected today. And General Bo Xiu is a well-known military madman. Facing the pressure of the centaur giant ship, he advocated an immediate attack. Although he had various high-sounding reasons, everyone knew that he was just extremely bloodthirsty. That's all. There was a sound of heavy footsteps of "Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes". Bo Xiu, who was wearing a light blue uniform, led a group of Asian generals and walked in with their chests puffed out. sneer. "General Crewe," Bo Xiu said with a sly smile, "I've worked hard on you old man these days, but it doesn't matter, you are about to be able to rest and enjoy life in peace." The gray-haired Crewe snorted and did not answer. This time, Morido was in charge of the briefing at the military meeting. After all the generals were seated, he turned on the three-dimensional virtual device used for the briefing and began to explain the world situation for more than a month. "With regard to the centaur giant ship coming to the earth, we have already had a preliminary understanding during this period of more than a month. According to the information transferred from the interstellar allies, the one that appeared on the earth this time is the 40th star of the centaur constellation. The star people of the six-star group, their galaxy, we temporarily translate it as "Shaji Trills", which means Sagittarius star. However, we can't find any information about the civilization of this Sagittarius galaxy, because they have almost no I have been in contact with other interstellar civilizations, and I don’t even know if they have the same communication method as us. The only thing I know is that they are also the same as us, which is the biological structure of organic organisms.” In the world of the 22nd century, "alien creature" is already a completely different definition term than a century ago. A century ago, humans still only defined aliens as being different from us in appearance, but their biological tissues are different. Roughly similar races.Therefore, in ancient sci-fi movies, the images of aliens designed seem to be changeable, but in fact they are just the arrangement and combination of various animals on the earth, and there is nothing surprising about them. However, after the earth and the interstellar civilization gradually came into contact, human beings realized that there are still so many unbelievable creatures in this world, like the "Lu Ji" star in the M56 nebula, whose body structure is completely mineral, and it is said that in the galaxy of Sirius Among them, there is also a kind of "cloud man". This kind of biological form is even more peculiar, because in that galaxy, all living things are just faint clouds. Such a topic is of course very fascinating in ordinary speech occasions, but General Bo Xiu, who has a different ambition, became a little impatient to hear it. "It's not a museum excursion for elementary school kids. Why talk so much nonsense? Why not get down to business?" Morido glanced at him, ignored him, and continued to report intently. "For more than a month, governments and diplomatic agencies at all levels have called and contacted the Centaur giant ship through various channels, but they have not received a clear response, and we don't know that our communication methods are completely different from theirs. Or the other party deliberately did not respond." At this time, many generals said "Oh" and whispered to each other. One general from the Middle East couldn't help but said: "In this way, their hostility tends to be a little bit more. I remember that General Bo Xiu was more than a month ago. He advocated the need to counterattack, so it seems that General Bo Xiu's judgment is indeed correct." Bo Xiu sneered complacently, and listened to his opinion with pleasure. "That's right," another general from North Africa said, "We also agree with General Bosio's tough proposition." "For more than a month, there have been reports of small unidentified aircraft appearing in various places. We have reason to believe that these aircraft may be related to the Centaurs. Therefore, their intentions have become more and more obvious," Morido said solemnly: "Therefore, their hostility is indeed very obvious." "That's right!" General Bo Xiu said loudly: "That's why I said from the beginning, let's fuck!" He couldn't hold back anymore, and stood up: "Generals, we don't have to say so much anymore Nonsense, if we don't take decisive measures, we will be left to be slaughtered in the future, so I said, if you want to win this war, elect me as the military chairman, and I will lead you all to defeat These alien bastards!" As soon as the words came out, the generals had different reactions, some nodded in agreement, while others showed hesitation.The current chairman, Crewe, looked solemn and didn't say a word. Morido stood quietly in front of the conference table, and waited until the discussion of the crowd subsided a little, then said in a deep voice: "It may be an inevitable fate to declare war on the centaurs, and of course all the officers can see this because of their extraordinary insight. , However, here we have to ask you a very serious question - if we declare war on the centaurs now, what are our chances of winning?" The generals present at the meeting looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing how to answer this question for a while. Bo Xiu let out a heavy "hum", but didn't answer. On the projection screen, a map of the distribution of the troop structure was displayed. "The lethality of the weapons on our earth is absolutely no problem. From the traditional nuclear weapons and neutron weapons left over from the early years to the current quantum system, we have always maintained above the level of interstellar civilization in the research and development of weapons. However, in this part of the interstellar battle, we don't have a strong backing." "Among the most elite aircraft of the Earth Legion, only 3% have the ability to fly out of the earth, and those spacecraft capable of interstellar flight are only at the stage of civil and commercial use. Among the interstellar aircraft, what we have The strongest firepower is at most the "Ace Lang" class Venus and Mercury colony frigates. As for the fighter jets and warships needed in Star Wars, we don't have any! That is to say, in terms of our current force, Once an interstellar war breaks out, if you go out of the atmosphere, there is nothing you can do!" "Who is afraid of whom?" Bo Xiu said angrily, "As long as everyone is united and united, I don't believe there is a battle that cannot be won!" Morido ignored him, and he never looked at Bo Xiu from the beginning to the end. "However, this situation is not permanent, because General Crewe has a short-term army building plan. Please see, this is the result of the Earth Defense Force's construction in just one month..." At this time, a huge gray space battleship appeared on the projection screen. The appearance of the gray giant ship was a bit old, and traces of refitting could be seen everywhere. "This is a Star Wars giant ship rebuilt from the ancient American aircraft carrier 'Midway Island'. Our plan is to use the old ancient ship as the outer shell, add the anti-gravity proton engine developed by the military, and build it in a short period of time. Create a Star Wars ship that can fight in the solar system, so that it will not be powerless before the centaurs." "And the most important thing is that this Star Wars fleet is scheduled to be initially formed within five months, and that happens to be the deadline of the Interstellar Agreement. The threat from the stars is minimized." Having said that, Morido paused skillfully, looked around at all the generals, but still didn't look directly at Bo Xiu. "All in all, war may be inevitable, but war must be fought with certainty. It's okay to fight wildly, but in the face of such a large-scale interstellar war, only relying on screaming and jumping Boy scouts are useless. Moreover, if you want to start a war blindly just for your own selfishness, I beg all the officers to think deeply. If this kind of people are allowed to take over the military control of the earth, I think the earth will never have peace It's..." This sentence was too blatant, how could Bo Xiu hold back after being robbed by him like this?He slapped the table heavily and roared loudly. "Morido, what are you? How dare you speak to me like this?" He shouted angrily, "Come on, come on, if you want to fight, I'll take off your rank and we'll have a good fight." Such a scene became a little chaotic, several generals who had good friends with Bo Xiu went over to persuade him one after another, some glared at Morido, and some felt cold sweat for him. But Morido didn't care, just sat solemnly and stopped talking. After such a noisy quarrel for a while, the military chairman coughed lightly and tapped the metal deliberative gavel. "I think everyone already has a certain understanding of the current situation, so..." He calmly looked around the generals for a week, and said slowly: "We will elect the next chairman of the military committee now." According to the regulations of the military committee, the general who wants to be the chairman must first be elected by more than three people, determine the number of candidates, and then choose the chairman from among these candidates. Except for the current chairman, the rest of the generals weighed in on the major changes in the current centaur army, and all retreated. No one wanted to take this extremely hot potato. However, Bo Xiu, who had obvious ambitions, was still nominated by several Asian generals to run for the chairmanship. Therefore, in the end, the only ones who competed for the chairmanship were General Crew and General Bo Xiu. However, because of Morido's incisive military analysis before, several main combat generals who originally planned to support Bo Xiu also changed their original intentions and turned to support the current chairman, General Crewe.Even so, everyone knew that they were not supporting General Crewe himself, but Colonel Morido, the military genius of the time. It didn't take long for the generals to count the votes, and the results were not unexpected. In the end, the current Chairman Crewe repelled the challenged General Bosch with seventeen votes to four. "Seniors, now announce the result of the election of the new Chairman of the Military Committee," Moridor said loudly: "The Krut Army has been re-elected!" The generals stood up and applauded unanimously to show their approval. Amidst the applause, General Bo Xiu sat on his seat indifferently, with a fierce look on his face. Unexpectedly, he didn't fly into a rage because of such a result, but just sat quietly on his seat. After the applause paused for a while, the gray-haired General Crewe smiled slightly, and was about to speak, when he heard the low sound of machine guns coming from all directions in the chamber. The generals also heard the monotonous mechanical sound at this time, and looked around in surprise. With several loud bangs, the floor-to-ceiling windows around the meeting hall shattered at the same time, and more than a dozen special forces personnel jumped in from the floor-to-ceiling windows, each holding a powerful high-explosive heavy weapon in their hands. . General Bo Xiu laughed. "How? As I said, I am the next chairman of the military committee. Who will fight me?" According to the Federal Military Law, weapons and armed entourage are not allowed in the meeting hall, so although the generals have been in battle for a long time, it seems that they have no choice but to catch such a team of well-armed special forces at this time. "If the mountain doesn't turn around, this throne will eventually fall into my hands!" Bo Xiu smirked triumphantly and said, "Old Crewe, what else do you have to say?" General Crewe looked solemn, staring at Bo Xiu's complacent look without saying a word. "And you, you bastard who can only talk on paper," Bo Xiu turned his head to look at Morido, "You have so much nonsense, what about now? Say it again! Say it again!" Morido still showed no trace of fear, and actually showed a relaxed smile. "Of course I have something to say. Apart from the summons from the court-martial, I guess..." He smiled calmly, "You are also responsible for repairing all the glass in the chamber!" When Bo Xiu heard this, he didn't know what he meant by saying that. However, Morido didn't let him think about it any further. At this moment, he lightly clenched his fist, and the entire conference hall was filled with strange buzzing sounds. At this moment of lightning and flint, the special forces members screamed in panic, because the equipment and weapons on their bodies were beating like crazy at the moment, pulling on their hands and bodies, and then "bang!" "Bang, pound, pound", they left their hands one after another, flew into the air, and stuck firmly to the ceiling. Such a change, such a sudden turn, left everyone dumbfounded. "Proton force field absorber, haven't you heard of it?" Morido said with a smile: "This is a very secret new equipment of the military. It can disarm all weapons with lethality. That's why there is no security force in this chamber. General Bo Xiu." He pressed a button on the table, and then looked at the dozen or so stunned special forces members around him, "Now, unless your team members can kill lions and tigers with bare hands, they can still receive high-explosive The power of the bullet, otherwise you have only two choices now." Bo Xiu snorted: "What two choices?" Morido smiled. "When sending it to the military court, do you want to take a car or a plane?" Bo Xiu's body suddenly trembled, his face was livid, and he ran away. The dozen or so special forces surrounded him and jumped out of the broken glass window. The aircraft outside the window caught these people and hurried away. "Remember it!" Bo Xiu shouted before leaving, "I will settle this account with you!" Morido didn't take any action, just let him flee in such a panic. He walked to the broken French window, and the strong wind blew outside the window, blowing away the blond hair on his forehead. The accident just now seemed to be nothing unusual, but he knew that if it was not handled properly, it would lead to a catastrophe with great influence. Because the function of the quantum absorber disarmed all the weapons of the troops, but fortunately Bo Xiu and those special personnel were frightened by this accident, and did not expect that without weapons, General Crewe could still be taken away, or simply He pushed down a tall building. In this way, in the absence of a leader, Bo Xiu is still very likely to seize the throne of the military chairman. Fortunately, Bo Xiu is just an idiot after all, and after scaring him with a military trial, he ran away like a bereaved dog. But... would the giant centaur ship from thousands of light-years away be easily dismissed like this? The wind outside the window is still strong, and the giant ship parked above Angel City can still be seen from here. "It will rain..." After a long time, Morido murmured like this. In a distant corner of the city, the flames of the base camp of "Tianlongtang" have not stopped. The bright fire is quite eye-catching in the iron-gray cityscape, like a delicate but cruel flower. At this time, from the distant Imperial Capital, many cities around the world have quietly delivered a killing order, on which the photos of Yao De, Ren Jiefu, Yuan Jixiang and others were clearly printed. "These people are extremely dangerous. They wiped out the Tianlongtang headquarters of the 'Angel's House' overnight," said the hunting order: "Here, I order to organize all my colleagues. If you meet these people, you will be killed!" The "Tenryudo", which dominates the entire city and has power in every corner of the "Capital of Angels", was reduced to ashes overnight, and has since become a historical term. The bottom line is that they underestimated one thing. "A person who does something wrong, no matter who he is, how high his status is, or how famous his reputation is, as long as he does something wrong, he must be punished." This is the most famous sentence of Yao De, the future Star Wars hero. After all, it is a world with justice and axioms, maybe it will come very late, but one day, it will still come.” Within a few days, there was an unusually chilling atmosphere on the streets of Angel City. Gangsters from all over the streets searched almost all the streets, but they couldn't find Yao De and others at all. And the most famous bar in the city, "Waste Ruin", has also become an empty city. Since then, the wild and happy atmosphere of the year has never been seen again. "A long, long time ago!" In the future, someone once sighed in front of the ruins of the bar: "There used to be a lot of joy, wine, and music here. Back then, the heroes of Star Wars Yao De and Ren Jie sang here. husband……"
