nebula story

Turning back slowly, he asked, "General, I don't understand."

"You don't need to understand, all you need to know is that I am the only person in charge on this warship." General Xie Zhan said indifferently, watching the soldiers under him step forward silently, and quickly and effectively handed over the weapons of the former Bi Hai's subordinates .

Watching his subordinates being pushed away with resentment on their faces, Yuan Bihai held back his words, his eyes flickering.

Coming to Feng Zhuan, Xie Zhan stretched out his hand to Yuan Bihai: "The key?"

After receiving the handcuff key from Yuan Bihai, the cold-blooded general with gray temples opened Feng Zhuan's handcuffs with his own hands.Squinting his eyes and looking at him, Feng Zhuan stood beside Chesu silently.

Seeing Feng Zhu'an and Chesu standing side by side, Xie Zhan seemed to be absent-minded for a very brief moment.

Soon, he waved again: "Take them away."

"General, where do you want to take Chesu?" Yuan Bihai asked in a deep voice, standing alone on the spot.As soon as his arm moved, more than a dozen guns around him were pointed at his head, and he raised his hands helplessly, Yuan Bihai didn't dare to move again.

After a moment of silence, the man opposite showed a strange expression.

"Now that you are as smart as you, can't you really guess it?" He asked back.

Pursing his extremely blood-colored lips, Yuan Bihai didn't seem to see the dozen or so ion guns behind his head at all, and said indifferently: "General, is this going to be like Colonel Feng Zhu'an, robbing people and then releasing them?"

Raising his head in astonishment, Chesu, who had been silent all the time, suddenly looked at Xie Zhan.But beside him, Feng Zhuan's gloomy eyes suddenly lit up with a cluster of faint sparks, bright and scorching, full of unbelievable joy!

Yuan Bihai finally nodded, with a complicated and helpless expression: "The most cold-blooded and ruthless general in the Federation is a mortal after all. For the sake of his son, willing to commit treason and spend the rest of his life under the sanction of a military court?"

His complexion suddenly darkened like rust, and the cold-blooded general of the Federation sneered: "Son? I thanked Zhan, how many lives and deaths I have seen, and how many years I have stood on the front line for the Federation. In the end, I did this for my own son?"

With anger and thunder that could no longer be suppressed on his face, he said word by word: "If anyone changes today, I will take the same position! I, Xie Zhan, will not allow anyone in my army, on the front line that I stick to, to Our Federation’s own people are handed over in exchange for peace under the threat of interstellar terrorism!”

Looking at Yuan Bihai, he sternly said: "It is a shame to compromise with terrorism at any time. But now, on this front line maintained with the blood of federal soldiers, we want to bow to the enemy's terrorist threat instead? What if What’s the point of this battle if we can’t protect innocent civilians and our families behind us!?”

Looking at him silently, Yuan Bihai shook his head, insisting: "General, this is not an excuse to make claims and disobey military orders."

Sighing slightly, he looked at Xie Zhan: "As a soldier, you know better than anyone else that personal judgment and opinions should not override military orders."

With a blank face, General Xie Zhan said slowly: "In this warship, my orders are military orders."

Staring at his face as hard as a stone, Yuan Bihai suddenly turned his head and shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Military Intelligence Director Yuan Bihai is ordered to escort the son of General Xie Zhan to participate in the prisoner exchange immediately. The secret order of the military department is on him, General Xie Zhan refuses to carry out the military order, what about you?!"

Looking at the shock in the eyes of the group of soldiers, he said coldly: "No matter what you think, from now on, anyone who obeys General Xie Zhan's orders will definitely go to court-martial in the future. — General Xie, I It has been made clear, even if you want to shoulder everything in the future, these people are also accomplices, you have the heart to implicate them again?!"

As if to meet his threat, a strange sound suddenly sounded inside the warship where everyone was standing!

There was an inaudible metal mechanical closing sound, and a dark silver alloy door was raised, isolating hundreds of soldiers, leaving only four or five closest soldiers and a high-ranking adjutant around Xie Zhan .

On this side of the alloy gate, only Chesu, Feng Zhuan, Yuan Bihai, and Xie Zhan and his party remained.

"Not too many people are involved now." General Xie Zhan said indifferently.

"But general, can I ask, what exactly do you want to do?" Yuan Bihai frowned, silently looking at Chesu who had been silent all this time.

Finally, the middle-aged man who had always looked indifferent and majestic cast his eyes on Chesu who was opposite him.

"Follow me." He said simply.

"Where are you going?" Feng Zhuan looked confused.

"Come on, you'll find out soon."

After hesitating for a while, Chesu and Feng Zhuan looked at each other, and finally raised their legs.

Yuan Bihai was anxious, and was about to follow up, when his forehead felt cold, and a cold gun barrel had already touched his head!

The lieutenant with the rank of captain had firm eyes and heroic brows, and the gun in his hand was aimed firmly at Yuan Bihai.Behind him, Xie Zhan had already led Chesu and Feng Zhuan to the other side of the ship.

Staring at him sharply, Yuan Bihai sneered: "You know that your boss disobeyed military orders and was suspected of treason, but you still obey his orders?"

"I am a subordinate of the general, and I only obey the orders of my immediate superiors." The adjutant was expressionless, "In addition, I also agree with General Xie's words."

"what?"

"If we can't protect the civilians and families behind us, what's the point of this battle and our bloody battle?" The adjutant asked quietly, with a slight anger on his brows tempered by the flames of war, "That person is I am not the son of General Xie, and I absolutely do not agree with the compromise and cowardice of the Federation!"

……

Standing at the bottom of the spaceship, Feng Zhuan looked at the slowly rising giant hatch, and suddenly his heart beat wildly.A quiet small reconnaissance ship was parked on the scheduled launch path of the mothership, a bright light curtain flashed, and a pretty and heroic face appeared on it.

Xie Wei'an!

"Xiao Su!" The young federal female captain smiled and waved to her younger brother on the screen, "Come on, get on my ship. I'll see you off."

Looking at her in amazement, Chesu finally realized: that is the scout ship Viian that captured him back then!And Xie Wei'an is now inside!

"Where are you going?" He asked in a daze, looking at Xie Wei'an in confusion.

"When I was performing reconnaissance missions, I once discovered some uninhabited barren asteroids. Because they have no strategic significance, I did not mention them in detail in the mission briefing." Xie Wei'an looked relaxed, "I will send you to one of them, and then give You left behind a great mecha, and enough high-energy crystal energy bars."

"...And then?" Chesu asked.

"Leave it alone, live and hide there, or look for other asteroids nearby to transfer to, I think, no one will find you." Xie Wei'an looked gentle, and there was harmony with Chesu in her bright eyes. The same brilliance is compelling, "Don't worry, this battle has always been evenly matched. Maybe after you hide for a few years, the war will subside. At that time, I will drive the ship to pick you up."

"Great!" Feng Zhuan whispered excitedly, turned to look at Chesu, he grabbed his hand vigorously, and pushed towards the ship, "This road works, hurry up !"

Throwing his hand away abruptly, Chesu was so shocked that his face turned pale.

"Father, I've already told you about this problem!" He finally understood everything, the confusion and shock in his heart were mixed together, and his mind became dizzy.

"You child, why are you so stubborn!" Feng Zhuan yelled, "Your father and your sister are willing to take such a big risk just to save your life, can you not be confused?!"

Looking at Xie Zhan who had been silent all this time, Chesu's lips trembled, but he finally couldn't say anything. He turned to look at Xie Wei'an, and he shook his head slightly: "Sister, no need..."

The girl who had always looked relaxed and had a gentle smile suddenly had red eyes.Sniffing hard, she smiled: "This is the first time you call me sister."

Ever since Chesu moved into the house again, she had only guarded her sleeping brother for a few days before being recalled to the front line.Whether it was in sleep, or in the very accidental phone call afterwards, Chesu and Xie Wei'an, a pair of real siblings, had indeed never had a long conversation and heart-to-heart conversation.

There was some cloudiness in his eyes, Chesu's eyes were soft and his heart was sour.

"Sister, even if the war ceases, you have no chance to drive a ship to pick me up." He shook his head, "The military court will not condone your behavior, and you will go to jail for it."

Xie Wei'an smiled slightly: "That's not a problem."

"No, sister, I have already made up my mind." Chesu shook his head with a gentle expression, but there was no room for negotiation.

"Xiao Su, just listen to us, just this once, okay?" Xie Wei'an said softly, "I know you are kind-hearted, and I can't bear to watch strangers die because of you, but please also think about your worst love. People close to you, your mother, your grandfather, me, and your two fathers—”

Her voice was choked up, she stared at Chesu, stubbornly insisted: "More than ten years ago, we have already lost you once, don't let us lose you a second time."

There was silence, several people heard Chesu's sudden rapid breathing, they all closed their mouths and looked at him closely.

Biting her lips firmly, Chesu slowly turned her gaze to Xie Zhan.

There seemed to be some extremely weak tremors in the body, and the cold and iron-blooded first general of the Federation finally looked at his son.

Saying goodbye outside the ward, separated by the cold door, they have never met before.And to this day, even the phone has never been connected.

"If you really die in the empire, your mother... will go crazy." He said softly, "Go. Leave the federation, leave the empire, and live alone."

"...What about you?" Chesu said suddenly, and there was a strange expression in his dark eyes, which seemed to be mixed with sadness and desolation, and also seemed to be disappointed with hope, "You are willing to commit treason. Are you unwilling to bow to the terrorist threat of the empire, or because... simply want to save me?"

There was silence.

The rock-hard federal general met his gaze and didn't answer immediately.

But at this moment, there was a sudden and loud alarm sound in the entire spaceship!

An urgent warning sounded quickly: "Level [-] alert, level [-]! Our ship has been locked by unknown missiles, and combatants from all departments please get in place quickly! Attention, level [-] battle preparation!"

"General!" The adjutant who guarded Yuan Bihai rushed over with an anxious expression, "Please hurry to the main control room, Vice General Wei wants to talk to you!"

What?Deputy General Wei who is in charge of the Western Front on the Federation Fisher star?

Xie Zhan's face changed slightly, he thought for a while, and then turned his attention to Feng Zhu'an: "Please, send him to the ship."

Without waiting for Feng Zhuan to nod his head, and without waiting for Chesu's fierce opposition, an astonishing change happened again in this medium-sized spaceship!

In the entire ship, from all the microphones, Vice General Wei's voice suddenly sounded, tepid but extremely tough: "All federal soldiers, no matter what rank, must obey the following orders!"

After a pause, he asked the people on the ship to digest it for a while: "10. The Federal Assembly has just passed a resolution to remove General Xie Zhan's military command and take back all the power to dispatch troops; [-]. The spaceship 'Infinity' is temporarily suspended. All actions, wait for [-] minutes and take over, and no one can resist; [-]. The missile attack system of the Western Air Force has locked on the "Infinity", and any aircraft that attempt to fly away from it will be shot down and will not be tolerated."

The entire Infinity was shocked!Hundreds of soldiers stared at the microphone in astonishment. People with keen minds had already grasped the reason from Yuan Bihai's words just now.

The federal government and the military really want to hand over the son of General Xie Zhan, the spy hero of the Federation; and General Xie Zhan, whom they respect the most, really turned against the military because of this incident!

Suddenly, a sergeant shouted angrily: "Fart! We have been with General Xie for several years, and this ship has been used by the legion directly under us. What is it to take over?!"

"Tell me the reason for dismissing General Xie, and see if there is any shameful reason!" Another officer yelled into the microphone, "Let's say it clearly, you want to send General Xie's son to the imperial people, right!? "

"Yes! We will never listen to any bullshit military orders! We only recognize General Xie!"

"Shameless, shameless? General Xie has been sticking to the front line in the entire Federation, and now he wants his own son to go out to die?!..."

Hundreds of federal soldiers were excited, and their eyes were bloodshot: what kind of softies are there in the rear of the federation, and how bloodless are those senior officials in the parliament? !

"General Xie Zhan!" Vice General Wei ignored the angry scolding of those young men, his voice could not hear the ups and downs, "Are your subordinates planning to mutiny?"

Standing there quietly, the corners of Xie Zhan's lips curled up in sarcasm.

"Before Yuan Bihai came, apart from accepting the secret order, did he also make other agreements with the military?" He asked lightly.

"Yes." General Wei didn't hide anything, "According to the agreement, after Yuan Bihai boarded your ship, if he didn't contact me within a period of time, it means that the situation has changed, and I will start an emergency plan here."

Sighing deeply, he said, "General Xie, you should know the military's position and determination. I repeat, if anyone tries to fly away, the parliament and the military authorize me to activate the missile interception system immediately."

His face was so gloomy that water was about to drip, Feng Zhuan's fist on one side was tightly clenched, and he clenched his teeth.

Xie Wei'an's expression finally changed.

With such a close-range missile lock, it is almost impossible for any slightly larger ship to escape calmly!Especially the initial start-up time, the slow initial acceleration of tens of seconds, absolutely cannot escape monitoring and locking.

The sarcasm on Xie Zhan's face became even stronger.

Looking up at the microphone, he said word by word: "I, Xie Zhan, have never been afraid of war. I want to see if the firepower of my 'Infinity' is enough to cover a small scout ship from flying away." Star Fisher! I, Xie Zhan, really want to try it out, does the Federation Parliament really dare to bombard my ship and kill a Federation frontline general on the spot?!"
