Chapter 60

In the middle of the night, the Alliance Headquarters was brightly lit.

In the conference room on the top floor, dignitaries in suits and leather ties were arguing together, their faces still as hard as a rock, and only the slight trembling of facial muscles, crooked bow ties and missing cufflinks could slightly reveal the urgency of the situation.

Sitting at the end of the conference table was Herman.

He was awakened from a deep sleep, and he felt less dreamy due to physical reasons, but now his face could not hide his fatigue.

Beside him was Edwin with an extremely ugly face.

Neither of them spoke.

Not long after, the secretary hurriedly pushed the door open and whispered into Herman's ear, "Admiral Zhan is here."

Edwin's lips moved slightly, like a slight twitch.

But in the end, he remained silent.

It's just that his face became more gloomy.

Herman's eyes fluctuated slightly, he straightened up, coughed twice before saying, "Let him in."

Soon, an alpha figure appeared at the door.

Zhan Zheng was still wearing the casual clothes he had when he went out with Huo Lening.

Time was tight, and he didn't have time to change it.

The off-white cashmere sweater was paired with slacks, leather shoes, and a long coat, making him look like a gentle and harmless nobleman, but as soon as he walked in, several people stood up immediately.

One of them knocked against the corner of the table because of being too excited, and made a dull sound.

"...Everyone, don't be polite, don't be so polite."

Zhan Zheng coughed.

He just came in from the outside and he felt quite cold.

This sentence is really a little short, so that a few people who stood up finally remembered that Admiral Zhan had always been soft and stubborn against them, and their faces changed.

The younger generation didn't have such a bad relationship with Zhan Zheng, but they were used to his tone and gave a light snort helplessly.

It's just that as soon as these words came out, the tense and anxious mood in the room actually eased a little.

Most people calmed down from the shock and anger.

Herman saw it, and even though he was nervous during the war, he couldn't help smiling, and then said, "Xiao Zheng, come here."

Zhan Zheng didn't talk nonsense, walked over and turned on the virtual screen.

Before coming, Zhan Zheng was mentally prepared.

He has fought against the Yata people for so many years, and he knows each other very well.

The Yatta family is known for their rationality and ruthlessness. Although their military power has far exceeded that of several small countries in space, they are still very cautious.If it is not without certainty, they will not launch an attack rashly.

But looking at the real-time battle situation from the border on the screen to restore the simulation, he still frowned.

The battle situation on the screen is not one place, but several places.

Connecting these several firefighting points in series can just constitute Nott's continuous border.

Yatta's military strength relies more on heavy weapons, but even so, because the star field where it is located is barren and the population is not too large, even if the warlike sentiment has been very high, they still use sneak attacks and fast breaks to gain an advantage, thusStrategies to gain some advantage through diplomatic negotiations.

But now it's like an all-out attack.

...Yatta really came prepared.

Zhan Zheng took a deep breath, and said decisively: "I can't wait."

If you wait any longer, something will really happen.

Behind him, he fell into silence at an unknown time.

After hearing this, everyone's faces showed solemn expressions.

Herman looked at Zhan Zheng, with light trembling in his cloudy eyes: "I'm issuing an order now."

"Wait." Edwin frowned, "We haven't figured out what the Yatta people want..."

Zhan Zheng walked out quickly, and without looking back, he dropped a sentence: "Deputy Consul Edwin, at this point, there is only one situation where you can get through the office communication of the Yatta leader, that is, the Yatta people have already calledArrived at Capital Star."

Edwin's face was livid.

He did call several times just now but failed to get through the Yatta leader's communication.

He looked at the war-torn border on the screen, and he let out a breath after a while, leaning back on the cold chair back.

When Zhan Zheng went out, he went directly to the base of the Shining One in Capital Star.

He notified Ji Yang before he came, and the base was quiet, and everyone was ready to go.

Zhan Zheng took a glance and then withdrew his gaze:

"lets go."

Countless mechs and warships soared into the sky silently in the night sky, like twinkling sparks in the dark night.

Zhan Zheng, Ji Yang and several commanders were on the same mech.

The lights in the cabin were on, and the current battle situation on the front line was played in real time on the floating screen. Several people gathered around the floating screen to discuss the current situation and the battle situation in low voices. They didn't take a short break for five minutes until half an hour later.

The robot poured him a glass of water, and Zhan Zheng took a sip with his eyes closed, slowly rubbing his temples, his mind still full of various tactical deduction.

He just paused when he opened his eyes and glanced at the personal terminal.

As expected, there was no news.

Huo Lening was always very nervous about disturbing him. Knowing that he was going to fight the Yata people, he would definitely not contact him until he got definite news that he was safe and free.

He was in a hurry when he left, although he explained the situation to Huo Lening, but...

Still in a hurry.

Especially, before that emergency communication, they still had that vibe.

What did Huo Lening want to say?

In fact, Zhan Zheng didn't dare to guess, or he guessed it, and he didn't dare to believe it.

This kind of worry about gains and losses is unlikely to appear on him.

Zhan Zheng used to think that when he was 26 or 27, even if he fell in love, he wouldn't be as green and reserved as a seventeen-eighth boy.

But it seems not.

Zhan Zheng looked at the night sky outside the window.

Regardless of whether what Huo Lening wanted to say was what he wanted to hear, he would win this tough battle and come back safely.

Once upon a time it was for the alliance.

Now behind "for" there is already one more person.

Huo Lening was holding the bag at this moment, and was sitting on the suspension car a little cautiously.

He was entrusted to Yan Pei by Zhan Zheng.

Or to use a more accurate term, Fu Heyin.

Zhan Zheng originally wanted to take Huo Lening away, but on the one hand, the battle this time was no better than last time. Although no one would say anything on the surface, someone would gossip about Huo Lening in private, which was nothing to Huo Lening.good thing.

On the other hand, Huo Lening is an important pawn for the Yata people, and inquiries about him are still going on.

He didn't feel at ease just leaving Huo Lening at home alone.

After hesitating and hesitating, it was Fu Heyin who specially called Zhan Zheng.

"Let Le Ning come to my house." She said, "Your mother is running all over the galaxy, and it's not convenient. I'm here at two o'clock and one line. He was supposed to come to the experimental garden during the day, and stay at our house at night. I'll take care of him.", you can rest assured."

She paused, "When I'm not free, Yan Pei can also accompany him."

So Zhan Zheng came to seek Huo Lening's opinion.

Huo Lening has no objections, it doesn't matter where he is.

So he followed Yan Pei and Fu Heyin back home.

He was both reserved and a little restless.

Because of Zhan Zheng on the front line.

"Le Ning?" Fu Heyin's voice called Huo Lening back.

He straightened up nervously: "Teacher Fu."

"Oh, don't call me that." Fu Heyin smiled, "In private, you and Zhan Zheng can call me Aunt Fu."

She paused, and asked with concern, "Are you worried about Xiao Zheng?"

Huo Lening hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"It's okay, Ning Ning." Yan Pei who was on the side opened his mouth.

After Zhan Zheng left, he obviously relaxed a lot towards Huo Lening. Not only did he change his address, he even finally got his hands on Huo Lening's rua-like hair. Fu Heyin gave him a glare before withdrawing his hand embarrassingly.

Then he continued, "It's not unreasonable why brother is called the God of War, just wait."

In fact, he was also worried, but he couldn't reveal it in front of his family.

So he changed the subject: "Is there any supper you want to eat?"

Huo Lening: "..."

"Dumplings? Noodles? Crayfish? BBQ? Ouch!"

Fu Heyin knocked Yan Pei on the head once, and said angrily: "I just know how to eat."

"...Food is the most important thing for the people." Yan Pei said.

The suspension car stopped, Huo Lening was led home by Yan Pei, and Fu Heyin walked behind them, suddenly lost his mind for a while.

Huo Lening was dizzy by Yan Pei's words, and turned around to see Fu Heyin standing there.

He froze for a moment, and tugged Yan Pei's arm.

Yan Pei was startled, looked back, and said:

"fine."

He took Huo Lening to the house and gave him a new pair of slippers.

Huo Lening followed him, and had to inform the kitchen robot of tonight's supper menu before arriving in a warmly furnished guest room.

Yan Pei carried the bedding off for him.

Then, he said: "My mother is in love with the scene."

Huo Lening looked at him and blinked.

"I have an uncle." Yan Pei thought for a while, "The whole family... died on the front line. If his child can grow up safely, he will probably be your age."

Huo Lening let out a soft "ah".

Yan Pei thought about it, and spread the quilt for him, Huo Lening hurried over to spread the quilt with him, and the two of them held a corner each.

Yan Pei inexplicably found this scene very funny, and enjoyed it for a long time.

Then he said: "So she took the initiative to call brother, hoping you don't go to the battlefield with him, she doesn't feel safe. Of course, I know brother will not do that."

He paused: "He cares about you very much."

So all aspects can be imagined, and there is no need for others to remind.

Huo Lening was a little embarrassed when he heard the last sentence.

Yan Pei only talked to him a few words to prevent him from being overwhelmed, but Huo Lening really took his heart.

He thought about it differently, and felt that if he were Fu Heyin, he would be sad for many, many years, so the next morning, when Yan Pei asked him where he was going for a stroll, he mentioned a place.

"East Linjie?" Yan Pei said, "Yes."

"It's Chinese New Year recently, it should be quite lively over there, so I'll go with you."

He was very happy to play with Huo Lening, Liao Yang laughed at him and said that a robot can still say cute, Officer Yan, you are purely childish and you can't stop Yan Pei's playfulness.

He is used to being casual, and he gets close to anyone he has eyes for.

Huo Lening was going to Donglin Street, so he generously carried people there.

He thought it was the kid who really wanted to play, so he specially made a play guide, but Huo Lening took him to another place.

In a quaint courtyard, a huge old tree stands quietly.

On the old tree, several wooden signs with red strings were swayingly tied, and some words could be vaguely seen on them.

"This is a wishing tree." Huo Lening explained, "You can write anything you want on it, I saw it on the Star Network."

Even so...

Yan Pei looked around and found that there were quite a lot of people who believed this.

Huo Lening had already gone to the stall next to him to pay the money.

Yan Pei followed behind him, watching him kneel down to write on the tree trunk with two cards in his hand, each stroke with seriousness.

He touched his nose.

I'm just curious, hmm.

He comforted himself like this, and then sneaked up to see what Huo Lening was writing.

Huo Lening didn't care about his reading, and wrote on his own.

In the first block, write:

I hope Aunt Fu is happy every day and safe every year.

Yan Pei was stunned.

He looked at Huo Lening's back with mixed feelings for a moment.

After Huo Lening finished writing, he naturally handed him the sign and asked him to hold it for him.

"Thank you, Brother Yan Pei." He said obediently.

Brother Yan Pei took it, and put a scarf on him without any complaints, so that the tail of the scarf would not fall to the ground.

Huo Lening started to write the second piece.

The second block...

He looked at the wooden sign in front of him and was dazzled for a few seconds.

Then, stroke by stroke, he solemnly wrote:

I hope Zhan Zheng is safe and sound.

From now on, every day will be safe.

Nott border, Cha Yunxing.

The two battleships lined up like neatly arranged star points. Countless laser cannons and magnetic cannons drew long and gorgeous arcs in space. Sparks splashed on the battleships, igniting thick black, and the wreckage andDebris floated around.

Above the ground, the missile exploded with a bang, and the roar was deafening.

As the war progressed, the artillery fire gradually subsided, and Ji Yang's calm voice came from the communication channel:

"General, they're gone."

"Don't chase." Zhan Zheng looked at the red dot on the virtual screen and let out a light breath.

The firefight just now consumed a lot of his mind, but right now, he has no intention of resting at all.

Beside him is an experienced major general.

"General." He whispered, "I feel something is wrong."

"It's really not right." Zhan Zheng said, "The Yata people are going all out this time. The purpose of their leader is no longer to get any benefits, but..."

He paused and sneered, "a man who is never content is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant."

"But this way of fighting." The major general said hesitantly, "Now the entire border is facing fire suppression, and the Yata people are mobilizing. Without this focus point, there will be another one. This..."

Nott has only one Zhan Zheng.

He is at his wits end.

Zhan Zheng looked at the firefight point on the map with a condensed expression.

The major general on the side stood on his right side, watching the virtual screen with him, stepping forward to mark a few points from time to time.

Just when he took another step forward to prepare for punctuation, a bright and sharp saber suddenly appeared in his hand out of thin air, and he stabbed Zhan Zheng from the back with almost no hesitation.

"puff"

There was a muffled sound of a sharp knife piercing into flesh.

Zhan Zheng put away the knife and pinned the man to the ground with his backhand.

The man curled up in pain on the ground: "You, you have already discovered..."

Zhan Zheng squatted down and stared at his face for a while.

"You are as arrogant as your leader," he said.

There was a weird smile on the man's face, and a "ho ho" sound came from his throat, but he still stared at Zhan Zheng, with only the regret of not completing the task in his eyes, without the slightest fear of death.

He died quickly.

Zhan Zheng asked someone to clean up the body, and squatted there without moving.

He is not familiar with this major general, but he has dealt with him several times.

Not to mention a veteran, this major general has stayed at the border for at least many years, and many people know him.

Zhan Zheng really didn't expect that he would be infiltrated by Yatta just now.

The reason why he found the knife was because he just suddenly lost his mind.

He once told Huo Lening that when fighting, never leave your back to the opponent, and then he subconsciously glanced back.

... Ning Ning.

Zhan Zheng took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

After a while, he opened his eyes and switched on the communication channel.

"Ji Yang." He said, "Notify the commanders in charge of each firefight point, and report the real-time battle situation and the number of armaments."

"From now on, take back the supreme command of all firefighting points, and I will take full command."
