At the military airport in the western suburbs, the large snow blower spewed foam-like chemicals, and the snow-covered apron looked like an incomparably wide laundry tub. The light warship that was going to Xilin looked like a Funny as a bar of old-fashioned soap.
Xu Le stood under the warship, erecting the collar of his military trench coat to block the cold wind. Although these biting cold winds had no effect on his strong body, for some reason, he always felt that his body penetrated from the inside out. A chill.
Because he knew that after leaving, there would be no chance of seeing the old man again. The next time he received the news, it should be the day the old man passed away. Going to Xilin today is in a sense saying goodbye to the old man.
Because it was involved in insider trading between the government and the judiciary, Xu Le chose to leave quietly. There were no reporters or official personnel at the Xijiao Military Airport, only friends who came on a special trip.
"Xilin looks far away, and it only takes ten days for the warship to sail at full speed." Zou Yu looked at him calmly and said, "It's better to avoid the limelight, just consider it a vacation."
Nan Xiangmei stood beside Zou Yu and smiled at him without saying anything.
"The rest of the troops are coming back soon. Among them are Du Shaoqing's Seventh Tie Division and your division." Li Xiaotong lit a cigarette for Xu Le and said in a low voice, "Thank God you are willing to leave, if you really want to investigate, you will definitely It's a repeat of the Medellin incident, and as your investor, I'm really worried about losing everything."
Xu Le smiled, thinking that the comrades of the Seventeenth Division were coming back soon, but he couldn't meet them, and he felt a little depressed.
The so-called shelter-in-place vacations are all fake. Vice President Byron and the military radicals, as well as those mercenary family members, just don’t want his Donglin stone to check the ancient bell again. In a certain sense They seem to have had a temporary victory.
"A vacation is a vacation, don't think about anything else." Zou Yu raised his finger and stared at him sternly, "You lied to us for so many years, and now you know that you are really a stinky stone in Donglin, but at least now, You have to put away the temper of this stinky stone."
"clear."
Xu Le replied calmly, then bowed his body and hugged Zou Yunan Xiangmei gently, and shook hands with Li Xiaotong tightly. Tai Zhiyuan was preparing for next year's parliamentary election, so he didn't come, but looking around, he never saw Shi Qinghai. His warm heart just now gave birth to some unease.
He turned around and took Zhong Fireworks' soft little hand, and the two walked up the gangway.
Zhong Yanhua, who had been standing quietly beside him, didn't say a word, suddenly asked curiously, "Just go home like this?"
"How is that possible?" Xu Le held her hand, and suddenly found that in just a few days, the little girl seemed to have grown taller, and gradually she was going to develop in the direction of a beautiful girl, and said with a smile: "A gentleman is not too late to take revenge in ten years. ."
"Brother, after you entered the empire, the federation thought you were dead, and made a documentary. Your subordinates said... You once said that you are used to the revenge of small people, from morning to night?"
Zhong Yanhua looked at him with wide innocent eyes and asked seriously.
Xu Le laughed and rubbed her smooth black short hair without saying anything.
Zhong Fireworks laughed happily, leaning against his arm, shaking his body gently.
The battleship roared and shook. Xu Le led the little girl on the journey back to Xilin. Through the surveillance light curtain, he looked at the white and wild Capital Special Administrative Region. Thinking of the politicians in the buildings, his eyes narrowed. .
Next year will be the general election. He is looking forward to the successful re-election of President Pabble. General Li Zaidao will take a firmer seat in the position of the chairman of the Federal Joint Chiefs of Staff. Together with Minister Zou, he will suppress the radicals in the military, and he will have a comprehensive strategic advantage.
At that time he will come back and demand from those men, by means of politeness or rudeness, the price and interest they owe.
The 72nd year of the constitutional calendar passed quietly, and the thing that worried everyone did not happen. The Federation, which had won the glory of victory in the war and had actual resource benefits, was peaceful.
The front-line troops started the first phase of rotation. Eight ground field troops who had undertaken severe tasks in entering the Empire's mainland military operations returned to the capital star circle by warships.
The 7th Mechanic Division of the 3rd Federal Military Region and the 17th Armored Division of the 1st Military Region landed on the ground amid the cheers of the enthusiastic people after a short rest at Jiuyue Base.
The Seventh Iron Division did not return to the original location of S3. This change surprised some military analysts, but it did not cause any repercussions within the government, because it is well known that President Pabble has always placed great trust in Division Commander Shaoqing, not to mention this is a charter In the capital star circle under the protection of radiance, no one will think in those dangerous directions.
No one knows how the officers and soldiers of the New 17th Division reacted to the accusations that Xu Le was once subjected to. No one knows. People only know that Commander Yu Chenghai, who is known for his slack, rushed at the fastest speed like a red-eyed madman. Arrived in Philadelphia, rushed to his teacher's sickbed.
In the early morning of the next day, Du Shaoqing also rushed to Philadelphia. In fact, all the military chiefs of the first wave of rotation did not go home, but came directly to Philadelphia.
The troops withdrawn from the front line are mainly affiliated to the first and third military regions. The second wave of troops that set off into the front line of the empire two months in advance naturally mostly came from the second and fourth military regions. For some other reason, most of the ground troops transferred to the front line of the empire were from Xilin, including the Special First Army of Qinglong Mountain.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a means of the federal government to disrupt the military establishment of the Xilin Military Region and thus completely control the military power. However, now that the Xilin Zhong family has been divided, the civil strife is difficult to end, and a unified and powerful voice cannot be formed. It is impossible to stop this kind of situation. trend.
Xilin has no tigers.
It was in such a situation that Colonel Xu Le, who was caught in the turmoil, took the little princess of the Zhong family by the hand and returned to Xilin Luori Prefecture.
Donglin people are as silent and tenacious as stones, but Xilin people have the most distinct and strong simple love and hatred. They don't care how many federal laws Colonel Xu Le has violated. The young warriors got their revenge. They only knew that Xu Le won the lawsuit for the old house and became the guardian of the little princess.
So they welcomed Xu Le with the greatest enthusiasm.
The representatives of the Imperial Underground Resistance Organization were still on their way, and the ordnance tests at the final assembly base were being carried out in an orderly manner. Xu Le lived a very relaxed and casual life in Xilin. Looking at the blue sky above his head, it was hard for him not to think about the old man's body. Whenever he thought that the old man would never have another New Year, his mood began to dim.
Lakeside Philadelphia.
The old man lying on the hospital bed like a statue slowly opened his eyes and squinted at the shadow in the corner of the room. After a moment of silence, he reached out and pressed a button. The transparent glass partition in the room instantly turned black, and all the monitoring facilities All interrupted.
"You are finally willing to go home."
The old man's voice was very weak and tired, it seemed extremely indifferent, and there was a touch of sadness.
