Chapter 57 Heroic Spirit (4)

Jiang Jianming was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed: "What am I going to do when I go back, it's not a real crown princess anymore, what birthday banquet will I be attending?"

Then he couldn't help frowning slowly and asked, "What's more, isn't Yin Beidou unable to return to China without any special reason?"

This sentence is absolutely true, no matter what festivals the empire celebrates, it is the iron rule of Yin Beidou that you cannot leave the alien star where you are stationed at will.

In other legions, it would be rude for the emperor not to come to see him after his birthday, but the two special legions of the empire, the Golden Sun Wheel and the Yin Beidou, are exceptions.

——Think about it, if the generals went back to celebrate the birthday of His Majesty the Emperor, the thieves and alien creatures would not be able to join hands and join in happily?

Like Xie Yuduo, at most, on the emperor's birthday, he could project remotely and take a form. It is absolutely impossible to return to his real body.

"Yeah, but..." Xie Yuduo nodded, he seemed to want to say something, but when he was about to say it, he showed a hesitant expression.

He waved at Jiang Jianming, pointed to a white tablet closest to them, and said, "Little Your Excellency, come here."

Jiang Jianming walked over, Xie Yuduo stroked his back and motioned him to look down.

In the darkness, at the bottom of the glowing white tablet, where the name had not yet been engraved, there were a few lines of smaller characters.

Jiang Jianming stepped forward to take a closer look, and was suddenly stunned.

I saw the inscription on the inscription:

Sacrifice the heroic soul of mankind through the ages:

Even if it is difficult to bury the bones in the homeland, the heaven and the universe can be buried. I saw the heroic soul fly to the sea of ​​​​stars, and it should be like a white bird returning to its nest. Still delicious.

Seeing these words for the first time, Jiang Jianming immediately thought of the last sentence of a mourning poem dedicated to Prince Le'an that made him unhappy.

It was also the fuse that made him decide to come to the distant stars.

During the field training, on the snowy night when he slept in the electric shock, he once said to Tang Zhen that the poem was "very badly written".

Indeed, what is in front of the "unruly golden rose" and what is the "eternal sun", the flattery is too obvious, but it is ridiculous and tasteless after reading it.

But at that time he also added a premise, "except the last sentence is a little interesting."

Unexpectedly, this sentence that made him feel a little interesting turned out to be a metamorphosis. The original sentence came from the Heroic Spirit Monument of Yin Beidou.

Xie Yuduo reached out and touched the white stele, and said slowly: "This is the famous sentence in the sacrifice made by the first commander-in-chief of the empire for the emperors who sacrificed, especially the soldiers who died in the distant stars. , also from this hand."

Jiang Jianming's brows softened for a moment: "It's Commander Aslan, and my little highness and I also studied his books back then."

Xie Yuduo nodded: "After the death of the new crystal species, a large number of crystal particles in the body will quickly escape. Many people think that the ultimate destination of these crystal particles is the crystal nest in the depths of the universe. The crystal particles that escape are translucent. White, so it was compared by the commander to a white bird returning to its nest."

"Your Excellency Jiang Xiao, I will leave my name here one day."

Xie Yu stared fixedly at the Heroic Spirit Monument, and suddenly said such a sentence, there was something very complicated in his eyes. Under the gleam of white stele, the Major General's profile looked even more handsome than usual.

"The sea of ​​​​stars is so vast, and the arrow from the string does not have to return. Step on this road, and then never come back - this is the fate of Yin Beidou."

Jiang Jianming's expression moved slightly: "Major General."

"—But my lord, you are different from us."

Xie Yuduo turned his head and said sternly, "You are not a real Yin Beidou person yet. In my heart, I don't want to demand you with Yin Beidou's discipline."

The major general patted his chest and curled the corners of his mouth: "We, the gang, handed over our lives from the moment we joined the Yin Beidou."

"We are loyal to the empire and the people, to this snow-silver military emblem and the fate behind it, and you..."

"And I'm just an ordinary person."

Jiang Jianming took it and said lightly, "I didn't come here to protect the people of the empire, nor to expand the territory for the empire, nor to believe in Yin Beidou."

He raised his head as he spoke, and then countless tall white obelisks slanted and fell into the dark eyes, like the Milky Way hanging upside down in the night.

"I don't have such a high level of consciousness, and I don't have the qualities that a hero should have. I just want to collect a person's corpse, that's all."

Xie Yuduo laughed. His laughter spread among the white tablets, creating a new echo, which was mixed with the next sentence: "Really, Your Excellency Jiang Xiao?"

"I heard about your time as an adjustment officer. That boy who was sent back... Joe Brown, why did you turn around to save him before he mistakenly blasted your mech off the cliff?"

"At present, human life is as it should be."

"In the melee with the pirates in front of the valley, why did you risk shooting Chilong?"

"Probably the top. I was a little angry at the time."

"You are quiet, intelligent, transparent, and you have experienced so many things. I used to think that your temperament would be colder."

Jiang Jianming: "What do you want to say?"

"Whether it is the consciousness that puts life and death aside, or the noble and pure character, there are few people who can match you in the entire Yin Beidou."

Xie Yuduo said, "But you still don't look like a real Yin Beidou person, which is very similar to His Highness..."

"The one thing you both lack."

The major general's eyes suddenly lit up, like the cold light on the tip of the sword when it was unsheathed: "It's called loyalty."

"You and Your Highness are both the kind of people who don't want to bow their heads and become ministers. There is a kind of person in the world whose backbone is not bent. They are born with the fate of emperors, and Ziwei Xing goes down to earth."

"So, you will never become a soldier who is subordinate to Yin Beidou and devoted to your faith. My Yin Beidou is destined to not be able to keep you unless..."

The next moment, under the vast and silent Heroic Spirit Monument, witnessed by countless dead souls from ancient times to the present.

The top commander of the fortress, Major General Xie Yuduo - his face calmly lowered himself in front of the twenty-one-year-old new lieutenant!

He got down on one knee.

Gently caress her heart with her right hand.

Jiang Jianming raised his eyes suddenly: "Major General!"

He took a half step back calmly, his military boots rubbing against the floor tiles, "Please don't do this."

"Your Excellency!" Xie Yuduo raised his eyebrows sharply, and there was a snort in his mouth, his eyebrows seemed to be burning, "Unless you can become the one who leads the Yin Beidou, it is up to you to accept our loyalty, it is up to you Be our faith!"

"Until then, it is possible that the military emblem of Yin Beidou can be placed on your chest, and we can truly have your existence."

Jiang Jianming's eyes were cold: "Major General Xie, did you drink fake wine before you came?"

He pursed his lips slightly, his eyes fell condescendingly on Xie Yuduo, and he was a little abnormally calm: "Do you still know what you are talking about?"

"Your Excellency Jiang Xiao, you know that the lower official is not joking." Xie Yuduo knelt on the ground, but his expression was like an aggressive tiger, "Now the situation in the distant interstellar space is getting worse day by day. I turned my fingers and counted: the marchers and the contractionists, the nobles and the commoners, the new humans and the disabled... a group of wine bags and rice bags can be noisy from morning to night! The empire's three-star nine-star city seems to be stable, but once the war comes, how many contradictions will there be? Exploding at the same time!?"

"I... I have a premonition, no, I have seen it with my own eyes," the major general closed his eyes and took a deep breath, his brows couldn't tell whether it was fatigue or pain, "the sun of prosperous times is setting, before it rises again We have a tough battle to fight in the cold night."

"..."

Jiang Jianming sighed, his expression seemed to be a little sad. He looked around at the white monuments on all sides, and at this moment, the names of Wan Wanyinghun seemed to flash, staring at him tenderly.

"But I," Jiang Jianming said softly, "is just a crippled civilian, Major General."

The rest of the words are unspoken: what do you expect me to do?

"Yeah." Xie Yuduo sneered, "You are a commoner, the kind of commoner who can participate in the emperor's birthday banquet; you are also a disabled human, the kind of disabled human who can join the army Yin Beidou."

Jiang Jianming: "..."

Xie Yuduo: "You are still a former crown princess with no name and no standing, the kind of former crown princess who can elope with His Royal Highness Garcia at any time."

Jiang Jianming: "..."

"You have infinite possibilities, the key is whether you want it or not, little lord." Xie Yuduo sighed, and he firmly held Jiang Jianming's wrist, "As the general of Yin Beidou, I start from my loyalty to Yin Beidou and the empire, and the two On balance, I don’t want to let the military and the empire lose talents like you.”

"Just like an early investment..."

"Little Your Excellency, I hope you can get close to the core of the empire, and there will definitely be the truth you want. If you return from the empire this time, you are willing to stay in Yinbeidou and join us in this cold night. war"

Xie Yuduo stroked his chest with his hands, bowed his head and bowed his head, but the corners of his mouth became more and more mad, "Then, please accept the future loyalty of Xiguan."
