interstellar fairy tale

When the sad news of the disappearance of the Fourth Fleet came back to the Republic of Seth, the President of the Republic, Franz, was having lunch with the Speaker of the House of Lords, Jeffrey.While tasting delicious wine, Franz extended an olive branch to Jeffrey, hoping that Jeffrey would continue to support him in the general election, and similarly, he would repay the kindness of the House of Lords accordingly.

"Sorry, Mr. President, I have to interrupt your lunch time, I have something important to report to you..."

Confidential secretary Kent reported the message sent back from the Royce artificial celestial body to Franz in a panic.

"what?!"

Franz and Geoffrey were stunned and pale at the same time.Jeffrey took out a snow-white handkerchief and kept wiping the cold sweat on his forehead. The tall crystal glass in Franz's hand was poured on the table. The crimson wine soaked the tablecloth, like blood from a dying soldier.

"how can that be!"

After confirming the facts, President Franz realized the seriousness of the matter, and decisively decided to summon the main officers of the military department, the Minister of Finance, and the main officials of the Interstellar Colonization Bureau to explain the situation as soon as possible.After everyone listened to the explanation, the room fell into a suffocating and terrifying silence.

Marshal Helu, the commander-in-chief of the Seth Space Fleet, clenched his fists. This tall, burly, middle-aged man like a hill has been a close friend for 20 years with the Commander of the Fourth Fleet, Lieutenant Colonel George. After hearing the terrible news , brown eyes almost spewing fire.Thumping the table like an angry lion and roaring: "We must find out the truth of the matter!"

House of Lords Speaker Geoffrey and House of Commons Speaker Derry sat at the end of the long table. They didn't care about the reason for the disappearance of the Fourth Fleet. Without the Fourth Fleet, there would be nine remaining fleets, wouldn't they?As long as the finances allow it, it is not a big problem to reorganize the Fourth Fleet in a short period of time.After the initial shock, compared with the toughness of the military and the ambiguous attitude of government officials, the two natural politicians began to think about using this incident to make some articles and gain more capital and benefits for themselves.When things developed, the disappearance of the Fourth Fleet turned out to be the trigger for politicians to fight and criticize each other. After the media reported it, the whole country was in an uproar.Many citizens, including the families of the victims, took to the streets to protest the government's inaction and wrangling attitude?discuss.President Franz had to fight?The discussion ended his term early, after all, he personally signed the presidential decree to suppress the riots of the people of the Alpha system.

On August 25, 360 in the Galactic calendar, the Fourth Fleet disappeared for less than a week. The 24th and [-]th president of the Seth Republic, Franz?Mill took the blame and resigned with only half a year left in his presidency.With the resignation of Franz, the vice president temporarily acts as the president. After half a year, the general election will elect the youngest president of the Republic—Liu Xi, who is only [-] years old.This dark horse in the political arena defeated all opponents by a landslide and ascended to the pinnacle of the power of the republic.At the same time, a new page of historical development was opened.

The news of the disappearance of the Fourth Fleet of the Republic of Seth also spread to the fourth planet Mars and Planet γ.The strange thing is that the Mars government completely took a rare indifferent attitude towards this incident, but it was the γ-planet city federation that expressed overly eager attention.

However, at that time, government officials of the Republic of Seth and members of the upper and lower houses of the House of Representatives were arguing endlessly about forming a cabinet for the successor of the interim president, so they naturally ignored this strange phenomenon.

Only Marshal Helu's staff Rhodes?Lieutenant Colonel Cherry submitted a report to the military department, but it was put on the marshal's desk, leaving him in the dust.

October [-], [-] Galactic Calendar Madoff Military Academy

Shang Ping stood in front of the single-player fighter training cabin with a headache. If close combat and shooting classes were nightmares for Shang Ping, then the single-player fighter simulation practice class was a nightmare within nightmares.

Shang Ping cursed these three courses since he stepped into the Madoff Military Academy and got the required schedule.

Of course, this does not mean that Shang Ping knows nothing about this course.On the contrary, Shang Ping's performance in this class is often among the best, and he rarely has the chance to be defeated by the students of the same period. Even in the face of senior students, he often has unexpected performances.This made the instructor who taught Shang Ping's shooting class very puzzled. Shang Ping's poor grades in the shooting class were obvious to all, so how did he accurately shoot down the enemy plane?The answer is probably only Shang Ping himself and God know.

The simulation practice program of the training cabin is completely designed according to the actual combat. Shangping has not been able to adapt well to the short-term dizziness and tinnitus caused by the simulated subspace jump and weightless flight.In the worst case, after shooting down the last "enemy plane", Shang Ping almost crawled out of the training cabin, with a pale face, and vomited out all his undigested lunch.The student who was defeated by him rubbed his eyes in disbelief, it was hard to believe that he was sent to "heaven" by such a useless guy.

"Yo!"

John walked behind Shang Ping and patted his friend on the back hard.

"That group of arrogant guys, you must give them some color today! Shang Ping, you can't wait too, right?"

John Jonathan is still brooding over his back-to-back losses to Austin South.In terms of stand-alone combat capability, he thought he would never be worse than that woman, but every time he was shot down, he was always himself!

"John, please, stay away from me. Seeing you look so excited makes me want to blow your head off with a laser gun."

After finishing these words in a hoarse voice, Shang Ping took a deep breath, and entered the training cabin with a feeling of death, sitting in the driver's seat, the thermal sensor automatically scanned his whole body, the safety device was fixed, and the safety light was on Get up, and the door of the training cabin closes.Looking at the various buttons and joysticks neatly arranged under the operation display screen, Shang Ping kept telling himself that this is for the precious credits, this is for being able to graduate safely, and this is for not wielding a laser shovel on a wild planet, This is for the great dream of his third fleet logistics supply reserve officer!

The smart computer in the practice cabin sends out a signal to start the test. The elevation angle is 35 degrees. A familiar sense of weightlessness spreads all over the body. He clenches the joystick tightly and stares at the display screen. Ping finally broke out a series of foul words: "Fuck him $&$&!"

After swearing, Shang Ping stared at the moving light spot on the screen, the coordinates were tilted by [-] degrees, aimed at the enemy plane, the simulated laser cannon attack program was in place, and beautifully shot down the first planned enemy plane.

Very good, there are nine more...

Licking his lips, a frenzy flashed in Shang Ping's eyes, just to end the torment in the practice cabin as soon as possible.

The system operator and course instructor in the main control room naturally received this strange sentence through the message transceiver. Several people looked at each other, but none of them could understand what Shang Ping's strangely pronounced sentence meant.

If they meet a professor who specializes in the study of human language and culture on Earth one day in the future, they may be able to explain their doubts.However, now, they were only puzzled for a moment, and then turned their attention back to the performance evaluation of the practical class.

The students in this period are all excellent, and their job is to select the best seeds from this batch of outstanding students and send them to the national army.

As the assessment gradually came to an end, the column of the course instructor's report card clearly stated: student Shang Ping, shot down six enemy planes, damaged four, returned safely, suffered four levels of fighter damage, was not good at overall cooperation, and got an A grade.
