The Wheel of Chronos

After a night of chaotic dreams, when Xue Lun was awakened by the nightmare, it was only five o'clock in the morning on the 28th.She had slept less than four hours and had a splitting headache.Getting up tiredly, she walked into the bathroom in the room to freshen up.In the mirror, she looked haggard, and the dark circle around her left eye got worse.After applying a hot towel, she closed her eyes and rested her mind, involuntarily recalling the dream of last night in her mind.That dream remained clearly in her mind, and she never forgot it.

She dreamed that she was back to six years ago when Josephine was still alive, on the spiral staircase of Westminster Abbey, she gave herself the pocket watch like history repeating itself.She tried to shout, struggle, and pull her away, but she couldn't move or make a sound as if she was held in place by some terrible force. In the end, she could only watch the tragedy happen. Collapsed, watching Josephine push her away again, watching her favorite sister die like this... She dialed the dial countless times, went back to six years ago countless times, failed countless times, and felt sad for countless times. Absolutely, that is, everything cannot be reversed.The feeling of suffocation tightened her completely...

She jerked off the cold towel covering her face, took a deep breath, and stared at herself in the mirror.She silently recited "Focus" three times, forcing herself to put those terrible thoughts out of her mind, then walked out of the bathroom, changed her clothes and left the room.

Old Jack was preparing breakfast in the restaurant, and the two big suitcases he had packed had already been placed in the corner of the restaurant.To Xue Lun's surprise, Tian Yang had also got up and was sitting at the dining table having breakfast.Seeing Sharon coming, she greeted with a smile:

"Good morning, Count. Did you sleep well last night?"

"Very good, the princess wakes up really early." Sharon smiled politely, and sat down on the chair that Old Jack had pulled out.

"Of course I have to be early. I will board the helicopter at 9 o'clock today and go to the East China Sea combat readiness area. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, I will take the destroyer Zhiyuan to the sea and arrive at Shule Island, the southernmost end of the first island chain. Tonight at the latest 12 Before midnight, I will enter the front line to start a three-month combat readiness service. It is said to be a three-month period, but in fact this time will be extended indefinitely. According to the frontline battle situation, I am afraid it will change at any time. I know what time it is." Tianyang said in detail like a report.

"Thank you, Princess, take care all the way." Xue Lun said.

"Hey, Earl, your answer is too perfunctory." Tianyang said dissatisfied, "I am someone who may never return."

"Please don't say unlucky words." Sharon said indifferently, then spread the napkin in front of her, picked up the knife and fork, and began to cut the tender bacon on the plate.

Angrily, Tianyang inserted a piece of scrambled egg into his mouth with a fork, his red lips pursed, and he stared at Xue Lun.Sharon continued to enjoy her breakfast calmly as if she didn't exist.

"Count, follow me to the front line." Tian Yang finally couldn't help it.

Sharon didn't answer.

"You go to the front line with me, which will help to investigate the cause of your sister's death. The collapse of Westminster that year was inseparable from the third princess Latia of Atlantis. You can only have it on the front line." Possibly in direct contact with Latia. Don't you want to avenge her?"

"Then, in what capacity should I go to the front with the princess?" Sharon asked, "I have no military rank now, and I am no longer a member of the army. Could it be that the princess wants to use the privilege to bring me into the army?" A military martial law zone?"

"It's no problem, you can be my staff officer, and I can quickly handle your military relationship," Tian Yang said.

"So, since I'm your staff officer, can I just follow you? If the princess can't return to the mainland for a day, can I also not go back to the mainland for a day? Otherwise, wouldn't I be regarded as A deserter, committed treason and shot?" Xue Lun said.

"This..." Tian Yang was speechless for a moment, "If you really want to come back, I can apply for a temporary transfer order from above."

Sharon sighed, put down the knife and fork, looked at her and said seriously: "Princess, I don't want to go to the front line right now, there are still many things waiting for me to investigate. If I go to the front line, I can't help myself. I am very grateful Your help, but this matter can only be done by myself."

"Are you going to use the power of going back in time to do dangerous things?" Tian Yang asked suddenly.

Sharon pursed her lips, but did not answer.

"I'm speaking from the bottom of my heart. I hope this ability can be fully utilized, especially on the battlefield. Every minute of intelligence acquisition may completely change the battle situation. Your ability is invincible on the battlefield, Sharon, you understand ?"

This was the first time Tianyang called Xuelun's name, Xuelun's heart skipped a beat, but she lowered her head and didn't look at her.

"Don't forget, I am a person who is not affected by time backwards. If the two of us can cooperate well, we can take down Lemuria and eliminate this huge threat. Find Latia and avenge your sister." , It is by no means impossible. What can you do even if you stay on the mainland? It is nothing more than continuing to investigate the National Security Bureau and follow the clues to find the culprit that caused the collapse of the Westminster space. There is a shortcut to copy, why do you take a long way?"

"I said, Bob's words are unsubstantiated, I must find evidence. I want to get back the lost hard drive."

"Why do you..." Tianyang became anxious, "If you really want to see the investigation information of the National Security Bureau, I can ask my mother to use the authority to access it directly. You don't have to take this risk!"

"But the National Security Bureau has been infiltrated! What Her Majesty sees may not be true! And if you alarm your mother, you will definitely alarm the enemy, which will also affect the frontline battle situation. I want to get that hard drive, I have to get the hard drive and confirm the information inside the National Security Bureau, and the two sides match before I can believe it."

"Is what's on the hard drive real?"

"That's why I said that I want to confirm with both ends and investigate the matter clearly!"

"You stupid brain!"

"It's you who want to use me!"

Tianyang stood up angrily, and stared at Xue Lun fiercely.Xue Lun's lips were drawn into a straight line, her expression was serious, and she looked at her without flinching.

"Earl Spencer, listen carefully. If your time goes backwards and affects my command at the front, I will order you to be arrested for obstructing the execution of military operations!"

After that, she immediately turned around and strode away.

"Clang", Xue Lun threw the knife and fork on the plate, fell on the back of the chair, picked up the napkin and wiped her mouth, and sat down for a while.Glancing at Old Jack standing silently beside her, she said:

"Pack up, let's go."

***

Tianyang sat on the back seat of the helicopter with a sullen face. The safety helmet goggles on her head covered most of her face. She silently stared at the scenery outside the helicopter, and she faintly exuded anger.

Lieutenant Colonel Durant, who was sitting next to her, trembled slightly, and he was a little afraid to talk to her.She became a princess, oh no, she should be the staff officer of the major general for three years, and this is the first time she has seen the major general so angry.What the hell is she mad about?Lieutenant Colonel Durant dared not ask.It's just that she doesn't feel good seeing the usual cheerful major general like this.The major general is ten years younger than her, but her military rank is several ranks higher than her. In front of the major general, she always has some inexplicable inferiority complex, even though Durant himself is one of the most outstanding graduates of the highest military school .

Such a silent voyage lasted for more than two hours, until the blue sea appeared in front of the voyage, Tianyang's mood seemed to improve.

The helicopter began to descend, and finally landed on the apron on the roof of the Naval Command Building in the First District of Donghai Prefecture.More than half of the commanders in the combat readiness area stood on the edge of the apron, welcoming Tian Yang's arrival.The leader, a well-dressed navy vice admiral, is the current supreme commander of the first combat readiness area - Lieutenant General Cheng Zhenyi.This is a tall, old soldier who is over fifty years old. As early as the Libyron Revolution, he was a lieutenant in the Revolutionary Army. , Working hard step by step, he has obtained his current position, and he is a well-deserved general in actual combat.

Tianyang got off the helicopter, a dark blue double-breasted navy uniform made her taller and slender.His long hair was coiled up meticulously, and in the center of the snow-white hat with a large brim, the silver light of the anchor-shaped military emblem was shining.She stepped on high leather military boots, pressed the brim of her hat with one hand, and strode up to Lieutenant General Cheng Zhenyi against the strong wind blown by the helicopter propeller.

"Lieutenant General, Mu Tianyang is reporting!"

"Okay! You are welcome." Lieutenant General Cheng Zhenyi raised his hand in return, and then shook hands with Tianyang with a smile.Behind him, Lieutenant Colonel Durant hurriedly followed her and Tianyang's suitcases.

A group of people walked off the apron and walked towards the interior of the command center building.Along the way, Cheng Zhenyi and Tian Yang chatted happily, and the joy of reunion after a long absence was overflowing between the two.

In the early years, Cheng Zhenyi served as Tianyang's superior commander.At that time, Tian Yang was still a ten-year-old child, but because she was the first genius girl who could pilot the third-generation mecha, she became a military member at the age of nine and started serving.Cheng Zhenyi was the commander of the mech unit at the time, and the two had a deep friendship.Two years ago, Tian Yang went to the front line for the third time, and he also worked under Cheng Zhenyi's subordinates.This is also the reason why Tianyang is only 22 years old and has already ranked as the rank of Rear Admiral of the Navy.In fact, she has 13 years of military experience, coupled with her high education in the highest military school and the addition of three first-class merits and four second-class merits on the frontline battlefield, she has created the youngest in the history of the Federation and the Empire. Major General Records.

During the federal period, the Rudolf government developed the first generation of mechas, which were clumsy, heavy, and inconvenient to move. The main strategic purpose was to resist and effectively kill Zergs and predators.After entering the early days of the empire, due to the threat of the floating continent Lemuria, the empire began to develop the second generation of flying mechs. Air maneuvering combat functions such as take-off, staying in the air, and air combat make mechs evolve into land-air amphibious mechs.

As the land of Lemuria landed in the Pacific Ocean, the sea became the main battlefield of the two continents.For this reason, the development of the third-generation amphibious mech for land, sea and air began, and it was born soon after.Just due to the increasing number of functions, the driver's burden is also increasing.Because the mecha still relies on the driver's spiritual connection to drive, the amphibious mecha has extremely high requirements on the driver's mental strength and willpower.In this regard, Tianyang has a natural advantage. As a genius who can pilot an amphibious mech at the age of nine, she has since become the new generation of the Empire's God of War, shouldering the expectations of the people of the entire Empire, and playing an irreplaceable role on the battlefield. effect.Now Tianyang is the supreme commander of the amphibious mecha special forces, and all the most elite mecha pilots of the empire are concentrated under her. She is the sharpest tip of the empire's blade and the most feared enemy of the Lemurians.

This time the imperial blade came again, which made the naval combat readiness zone [-] excited.And this also brings a signal that the real war is about to start.

The time Tianyang arrived at the first combat readiness zone was at 28:11 am on the 35th. The commanders of the first combat readiness zone led by Cheng Zhenyi received Tianyang in the VIP restaurant of the command center.The atmosphere of the luncheon was very good, and the dishes were all military-style stews in small pots. Most pilots in the military had this standard of food, which was also the highest food standard in the military.Since Tian Yang loved Chinese food since he was a child, following Her Majesty's living habits, this welcome banquet was also a round-table Chinese meal.

At the end of the luncheon, there was still some time before Tianyang set off on the destroyer Zhiyuan. At the dinner table, Lieutenant General Cheng Zhenyi talked in detail about her main mission to the first island chain this time to Tianyang.Tianyang listened carefully, and his expression became more and more dignified.In the end, Cheng Zhenyi patted her on the shoulder and said:

"The shock wave force field near the Lemuria mainland has fluctuated frequently recently, especially in the direction of the first island chain to the west. The opponent must be deploying troops. It is difficult for us to predict the timing of the opponent's air strike, but it may be right now. After you get to the front, the most important task is to intercept and strike precisely, and make sure that no fish slips through the net. Do you understand?"

"Don't worry, Lieutenant General, I will live up to my trust."

The author has something to say: The huge difference in value orientation has led to natural conflicts between Xue Lun and Tian Yang. From the first meeting of the two to the present, the first conflict broke out.Haha, there is a long way to go if the two of you want to cooperate.
