1534 Reckless Epitaph(2/2)
...The computer has calculated that with me personally commanding, the ground defense intensity will increase by 21%. If I leave, they will suffer more losses and lose their positions faster. How dare I leave such an important command job to those people?
Recruits do it?" The lieutenant general finished speaking in one breath, waiting for the person on the other end of the phone to continue speaking.
Finally, I don't know whether he compromised or finally gave up. The person over there sighed again and muttered: "God, for the sake of His Majesty the Emperor... I hope your choice is right."
"No one will know the answer, General Medias! I only hope that many years later, a group of children will come to my tombstone and lay beautiful flowers. My epitaph must be written by you yourself... Just write 'Reckless'."
And loyal Andre." The general named Andre said with his chin raised.
After saying that, he hung up the phone and looked at the officer who walked in holding his helmet: "What's the matter?"
"General, you should take the last spaceship to leave here. This is already the front line and it is very dangerous." The school officer did not answer the general's question, but began to persuade.
There is also a QR code on his forehead. Obviously, he is also a clone and a "consumable product created for use in war."
"Lieutenant colonel! There are more than 20 million soldiers here... They only protect me. Is there any place safer than here?" General Andre asked.
"You're right! General! There are 20 million soldiers here, who are sworn to protect your safety!" The lieutenant colonel saluted a military salute very solemnly and replied.
"Okay, what bad news have you brought?" General Andre asked. Before he came to the Higgs 5 area to serve as commander, he was actually just the most inconspicuous among the many unknown generals in the empire.
If someone sees his resume, they will only think that this general seems to be very closely related to the word "ordinary". His promotion is always in order, and his resume is not surprising.
After receiving a Golden Eagle Medal and being selected to study in the military academy, he became a typical office general in the military.
In fact, he only met Chris once, and that was at the ceremony for his promotion to lieutenant general. The 17 generals who were promoted with him were received by His Majesty the Emperor.
The empire is so big that even Chris can't meet all the major generals and current captains of the military, and even the marshals of the empire like Waggron can't meet.
"The 1st Fleet retreated back. They sent a message, confirming the intelligence we observed before. The Imperial Fleet gave up the front of the Higgs 5. In about 40 minutes, the enemy's landing force may launch an attack.
Our ground attack," reported the officer holding his helmet.
"I understand." Unable to tell the commander in front of him the true intention of the empire, Andre nodded and said that he already knew the news: "According to the predetermined defense plan, let the troops prepare for the battle!
"
"Yes! General!" The lieutenant colonel stood at attention and returned the greeting, then turned and walked out of the slightly empty surface headquarters.
As this place became a frontline, some conspicuous buildings on the surface have been voluntarily abandoned. After all, everyone is afraid that these obvious landmarks will attract long-range attacks from the enemy.
The real headquarters has gone underground, and the headquarters personnel who were originally in charge of work here have also left the planet with the evacuation rocket.
The people left here today are basically clones. Even in the headquarters, 99% of the people have obvious signs similar to QR codes on their foreheads.
"Report!" Another officer with words on his forehead came in, stood at attention and saluted, and said: "The last spacecraft is ready and can be launched at any time!"
"Approved to launch! Jack... after you go to convey the order, as the last officer on board, enter the spacecraft and leave here." Andre signed his name on the launch order, and then said.
"General! I was ordered to stay here, but I didn't get the order to leave." The officer was stunned for a moment, and then said.
"I order you to leave here and execute it!" Andre returned the military salute and ordered.
"You know...I can't disobey your order!" The officer named Jack saluted and explained with difficulty.
"Go, kid!" Andre patted his shoulder and nodded.
When Jack turned to leave, Andre turned his head and looked at the operation panels and monitors around him, most of which had been cut off and had some dust on them. He looked at the slightly messy seats and those around him.
Abandoned documents scattered on the ground, I don't know what I feel in my heart.
He personally supervised the construction of a large number of fortifications here and worked here for two years.
This is like a world he built, a super weapon specially used for defense and killing!
Two years have made him full of affection for this place, so he is not willing to give up here, not willing to leave, and not willing to let go of the familiar clones who live with him day and night.
"Humans are really animals with complicated emotions." He shook his head, walked out of the room, and when he walked to the door, he looked back reluctantly for the last time.
Ten minutes later, on the hour... According to the plan, the rocket should be launched at this time. At the same time, the power supply here, which serves as the rocket launch center and temporary headquarters, will also be cut off.
Sure enough, the lights were turned off on time. At the same time, the rocket outside was also launched into the sky, and a huge roar came from the headquarters. Because the headquarters was close to the launch tower, it could feel obvious vibrations.
After the shock, the light of the tail flame illuminated everything in the headquarters. Because the main power supply had been cut off, the lights here were dim, and only the emergency lights were still faithfully performing their duties.
The tail flame illuminated the only medal on General Andre's chest, which he had earned with all the scars on his body when he was still a soldier.
He walked down the stairs under the dim light and walked step by step to the elevator. The adjutant and security guard waiting there pressed the elevator button.
Several people walked into the elevator box and pressed the terrifying number -15th floor. It was prepared for commanders and was the safest place on the entire planet.
Fifteen minutes later, the Watcher's troops descended from the sky and started a fierce battle with the Airansil Empire Air Force guarding Higgs 5.
There were explosions everywhere in the sky, and you could see fighter jets from the Airanthil Empire falling at any time. At the same time, a large number of fighter jets from the Watcher's atmosphere, the Prowler, fell down.
The live broadcast swordsman of the Heavenly Sword Shen Sect stationed on the battlefield turned on his mobile phone again, only to find that the signals of civilian equipment had been completely interfered with and could not connect to the Internet at all.
"What should we do?" Looking at the cell phone with no signal, the swordsman muttered depressedly. He also hoped that the live broadcast could wake up his sleeping classmates.
"There is no way..." The clone grenadier beside him looked at the sky and muttered: "There are many more enemies than we imagined..."——
