Escorted by an entire A-class fleet, the President sailed towards Heidfeld, the capital of the Republic of Fyan.For the people on the spaceship, floating in the boundless universe for two whole days is really boring enough.However, much better than in wartime, such a journey can at least have a drink in the living quarters, chat and play cards, and watch TV programs through the accompanying electronic ships or the ubiquitous annunciators of the domestic waterways.The flames of war are still burning in every human city.The TV channels are full of news about the war.In addition to the news that it is not surprising that an important department of a certain country was attacked by a sleeper agent of the Western Covenant, or that a certain Fijian Alliance fleet in the northern theater and the fleet of a Western Treaty member state encountered a fierce battle, it was also revealed that a certain Fijian Alliance member state in the Northwest Star Region and its western neighbor secretly maintained a tacit understanding, and the actual casualties of the hundreds of fierce battles announced were not in double digits.There are unlucky people who were arrested for embezzling military funds, there are those who are arrogant and bold before going out to fight, but they are defeated in less than a day after arriving at the front line, there are politicians who fight in election campaigns, there are a certain rich man who has been found to be making and selling counterfeit and shoddy smuggling strategic materials, and there are spies who have been caught.
Piece together a world of human warfare that is fragmented and fragmented in the midst of war.And the focus of the most attention in the past two days is the people in the battleship who are watching the TV news themselves.Hundreds of television stations are tracking and reporting on Hastings's whereabouts.At this crucial moment after the assassination of Francis, Hastings returned with the aura of Thunderpeak's victory, and the itinerary itself was newsworthy enough and could give people more room for reverie.The news hosts and guests on TV frothed at the mouth and analyzed what impact Hastings's return to Fiyan would have on the political situation of Fiyan, what kind of challenges would Li Fo, who had become a new generation of military gods in the minds of the people, face, and how much damage the struggle between the two sides would cause to Fijimeng Looking at the battleship he was riding on the TV screen, it was a very strange experience to think of himself in the battleship on TV, and he was staying watching the battleship on TV.It's like two mirrors coming together opposite each other, an infinite and boring cycle.By the time Feiyan's Heidenfeld 5 finally put out a series of TV station and program logos on the screen, with a shocking and uplifting music to announce the news, the President's largest bar was already packed with officers from different countries.These men in different uniforms, one by one, hooked their shoulders and backs, their faces were full of red light, and they looked excitedly at the fat man at the end of the bar.The fat man estimated the length of the smooth wooden bar, and in a burst of cheering, pushed the beer glass hard.The frothy beer slid past a face of excitement and slid to the other end of the bar, and finally, just when everyone thought the fat man's glass was about to rush out of the counter, the glass came to a halt when it slid to the side of the bar and leaned out of its body.Than the other cup next to it, over almost two cups.There was a bang, the bar was thunderous, and the officers and soldiers whistled in a profligate manner, slapping the table desperately, stomping their feet, clapping, laughing and scolding, and shouting A chakner officer with a pale face turned around and wanted to run out, but was pounced on and crushed by a group of officers who had already taken precautions.By the time everyone dispersed, the unlucky guy who was trying to repay the debt had all the money in his pocket, and even his clothes and pants had been stripped off, and he stood in the middle of the bar wearing only a pair of stuffy underwear with a rusty white bear, smirking at several snickering female officers.The fat man squeezed in the crowd, grabbed and grabbed his share of the gambling money, stuffed it into his underwear and hid it with the second child, and shouted: "Who is next?"
”The fat man's invitation to fight was quickly answered.An officer from Tatania rolled up his sleeves and stood with the fat man in hand.There was another howl at the bar.The officers waved the banknotes in their hands and scrambled to place their bets.Buzz and Mountbatten and other bandit soldiers who followed the fat man were busy collecting money and keeping accounts, looking at the elated fat man in front of the bar, and Margaret, who was helpless, glanced at the TV that no one had paid attention to for a long time, and walked out of the bar with An Lei in her arms.The hustle and bustle behind him flickered as the bar door opened frequently.The officers who heard the wind were trotting all the way down the aisle and burrowing into the bar.Radio 5 is the largest news station in Fiyan.Almost all important current affairs programs are concentrated on this channel.Whenever there is a major incident, the first reaction of the people is to turn on the news channel of Channel 5 and learn the truth of the matter from the 24-hour uninterrupted follow-up report.Unfortunately, few people understand that in this world, there is actually nothing absolute true.Even President Fiyan lives with the lies and embellished statements of the officials around him.Moreover, even if you see things with your own eyes, there will be errors due to your angle at the time, and even the quality of your eyesight.At least this time, the truth was not in the hands of the beautiful presenter who was flushed with excitement.Outside the porthole of the spaceship, a star in the distance, starting with a small bean, is getting bigger and bigger.Dazzling light flowed over the hulls of the escorted warships until the fleet entered the great shadow of a half-light, half-dark earth-yellow star.The weirdness of the Battle of the Bentley Galaxy is known to Hastings, as do the Wimpy and the Fat Man.Francis's death meant that Liver's march to the pinnacle of power had accelerated.And the victory of the bandit army in the Southeast Star Field, the return of Hastings, made him instinctively feel threatened.No one knows how he managed to achieve this victory, and the populace is obviously even less likely to figure it out.Never try to expect all people to be sane and judge when it comes to something where there is no way to find the truth.Margaret has understood this truth since she was a child.Neither Hastings nor Fat Man is prepared to seize on these irrational places to seek a blow to Liver.At this moment, on the TV, a video is playing that makes people's blood boil, and several hosts are excitedly explaining.The news of Duke Bentley's victory in the galaxy came silently.Didn't cause the slightest fluctuation - at least not on this ship.If Barbara and Lever had known that Hastings was reading a book when the news of their victory came, and the fat man was gambling and drinking with his hat crooked, the old and the young would have been so indifferent that they didn't even have the interest to look at it, and I don't know what their expressions would be."
How long is it until you get to Heidfield?
An Lei, whose voice, surname, and appearance were equally soft, asked Margaret casually."
It's already here."
Margaret turned the corner at the end of the aisle, and Laanne walked to the wide, transparent, semi-curved balcony.The two girls stood side by side.The fleet turned, and a huge planet emerged from the backside of the earthy planet.Heidfeld, the airport of the largest and most prosperous city in the human world, is already close at hand.———————— largest airport in Feiyang is Airport No. 72, which was completed only a year ago.As the fleet approached, the huge white space building between Duxing and the No. 1 satellite had slowly unfolded the hemispherical main entrance to the airport, which was usually closed.The return of Hastings is a big event for the entire Republic of Fijan.Dozens of patrol warships, large and small, have been cruising along the inbound waterways, and more than 20 inbound passages under the airway have been temporarily closed, and passenger ships and cargo spacecraft in the airways have been required to temporarily stop outside the range of the inbound passages.No one has any complaints about this decision.Because, the object of their way is Hastings, the military god who single-handedly forged Feiyang, the first-level power in the universe!
Not to mention waiting for just twenty or thirty minutes, even if it is a day, no one will complain.People are more concerned about Hastings' safety than a little waiting time.Looking up at the President Chackner spacecraft slowly approaching the berth, the crowd waiting on the dock gradually stopped whispering and all fell silent.The No. 1 pier of the airport and several nearby piers have been placed under martial law by the Feiyang army.Even the port staff were asked to leave and replaced by the military's security forces.Every two meters, there was a heavily armed soldier with a grim face, as if he was facing a great enemy.You must know that in order to welcome Hastings, almost all the political and military dignitaries of the Republic of Feiyang gathered on this dock.Among them were not only Hastings' supporters, but also his opponents.Not to mention others, several generals under Li Fo, some of the members of the Congress who support him the most, are also among them.In addition, there are high-ranking officials and military generals in the political axe departments of commerce, defense, energy, interior affairs, transportation, finance, justice, homeland security, etc.If a battleship can break through the port defenses and fire a cannon at the dock, the Republic of Feiyang will be finished.Under the gaze of the people, the spacecraft finally stopped at the berth.As the tractor snapped onto the ship's docking port, the green light lit up, and the main hatch, located at the bottom of the port side, slowly opened.Hastings, who was in a wheelchair, was pushed by Margaret and stepped out of the hatch.The crowd of greetings, led by Gambier, the chairman of Congress, walked briskly, and from a long distance, everyone could already see Hastings's weak face without a trace of blood.Some are grieving, some are sighing, some are calculating, some are snickering.The news that circulated among the top leaders of the Filipino Alliance seems to be true.The sky is about to change!.
