The officer who was handcuffed was Zhou Yu, head of the Second Regiment of the Seventh Iron Division.
The top students of the First Military Academy of that year were recognized by Du Shaoqing's eyes and talents. With a wave of iron hands, Mochou Houshan and Xu Le's men were forcibly summoned to the Tieqi Division, and then the gentle and jade-like youth gradually grew up on the battlefield in the military camp. And mature and calm.
Under the care of Du Shaoqing, as an officer in the army famous for his tactical deductions, Zhou Yu's position in the Seventh Iron Division is very important, but now he is just a prisoner in the back row of a military vehicle.
The phone call from the presidential residence arrived at the station of the Seventh Railway Division. Du Shaoqing ordered all the troops to start marching towards the Capital Special Administrative Region. No one in the entire Seventh Railway Division questioned the military order. At this time, Zhou Yu stood up, in front of everyone. He took out his pistol and placed it on the table in front of Du Shaoqing silently, expressing his strongest opposition with this most extreme move.
Zhou Yu's brave statement did not have any impact on Du Shaoqing's decision, at least on the surface. After his arrest, the 7th Iron Division's troops set off on time, while he was stuffed into the back seat of Du Shaoqing's military vehicle and was forced to follow him to the capital. Forward.
"Master, you made a mistake just now."
The current commander of the Tieqi Division is Liu Yongfu, but as long as Du Shaoqing appears in this unit, the Tieqi Division will only call him the division commander from top to bottom.
Zhou Yu, who was handcuffed behind his back, didn't look at Du Shaoqing, his eyes fell on the valley on the right front of the road, and said, "Why did you make a mistake? Because even you don't know whether it is right or not."
"And I firmly believe that this is wrong! Federal troops interfere in political affairs, which is a serious violation of the spirit of the charter! Commander, even the imperial people in the valley understand this, and even risk it to stop you, why don't you understand!"
There was an angry voice of objection and questioning from the subordinates in the back row. The expression on Du Shaoqing's face did not change in the slightest. His indifferent eyes drifted slightly with the jerking of the military vehicle. I once pointed to my nose and said, the army should not have its own thoughts, the duty of a soldier is to obey orders."
"Mr. Pabble is the democratically elected president. As a soldier, what's wrong with me obeying his orders? If this military deployment goes against the spirit of the Charter as you said, why hasn't the Charter Bureau responded?"
Listening to Du Shaoqing's explanation, Zhou Yu laughed a little hard and stopped trying to convince the other party. He knew very well His Excellency the General who was sitting in front of him. He was a man who didn't talk much and was more disdainful to explain any details of the plan to his subordinates. Today, he actually explained it very rarely. What does this mean? It just shows that he is constantly looking for reasons to help him strengthen his resolve.
The engine hummed, the military vehicle started slowly, the cool breeze blew from the window, and the temperature dropped a bit, but Du Shaoqing, who was expressionless, still seemed to feel a little hot, and unbuttoned the second button of his military uniform.
Precise calculations, powerful action, and an impeccable plan to lure the enemy have created the opportunity to run down the valley, which seems desperately futile, but actually hides murderous intentions. However, when he was about to implement the plan, a wave of giant When the waves were raging, they found that the nearest black MX mecha that was chasing behind had quietly withdrawn, leaving two trees vacant here.
It's like a best boxer holding his head passively and being beaten until his nose is bruised and his face is swollen and blood is flowing to show his enemy. He delays time and finally finds the moment of the fatal blow. Found out that the glove was a piece of air.
Xu Le, whose face was stained with blood and water, stared blankly at the two trees, at the dozen or so Iron Seventh Division mechas receding into the wilderness at the bottom of the mountain range, standing in the same place like the poor boxer.
Running back to the edge of the cliff near the highway in the mountains, he couldn't help frowning deeply when he saw the steel troops who had already completed the formation and marched neatly towards the capital.
The Seventh Tie Division responded to his thousands of changes with natural stature, and the power of the level difference was too large. What else can be done with uninteresting harassment along the way
More than 100 black MX mechas are scattered in the fields, seven of which are not far from the dark green military vehicle on the road, which tightly shields the long-range sniper range from any angle, and hundreds of armored combat vehicles follow behind. , The troops of more than 10,000 people maintained a perfect formation and moved slowly towards the capital. Except for the roar of the engine, they could not hear any noisy notes, giving people a feeling of silence, depression and unstoppableness.
Xu Le calmed down his rapid breathing, rubbed ACW's hot gun with his palm, and watched the Tie Qi Division marching silently under his feet. He couldn't help but feel a strong sense of frustration in his heart. There is no force around the capital that can be Du Shaoqing Tie Qi. The division's opponent, and once this unit is allowed to enter the capital, what will be faced by those who also claim to be marching in silence
Long-range sniping all the way, someone did his best, but he was still as powerless as the mosquitoes flying around the bison on the Donglin electronic fence. It will swing its tail and slap it, and someone must retreat into the mountain area at high speed like a mosquito fleeing for life.
It seemed that there was no longer any force that could prevent the Seventh Iron Division from entering the Capital Special Administrative Region. However, at this moment, the steel torrent, which was advancing silently, suddenly stopped outside an inconspicuous town.
It wasn't the Seventh Group, the Black Eagle Security Company, or the Xilin Zhong family's troops who had suddenly learned to travel through space, nor the imperial army that madly followed the prince, but only one person, a beggar-like body covered in dirt and wounds. Bleeding man.
No beggar, even the beggar gang leader in Schiller's eight-part series, could make Tie Qi Shi's footsteps slow in the slightest, but this beggar was Dongfang Yu, the former head of the first regiment of the Tie Qi Shi Shi. I don't know how many of the officers and soldiers of the Iron Seventh Division in the armored vehicle mecha were his subordinates who were personally picked into the recruit camp and promoted!
Dongfang Yu, leaning on crutches, looked at the armored vehicle that was slowly stopping in front of him, and there was a trace of abnormal excitement and blush on his face. He shivered nervously and moved forward with difficulty. The wound that came down was splattered with blood.
Liu Yongfu, the current teacher of Tie Qi Division, who received the news, quickly rushed to the front of the team, looking at Dongfang Yu, who was as desolate as a beggar, his pupils shrank, he reached out to help him and then took him away, but Dongfang Yu suddenly took him away. Pushing it away, he shouted in a deep voice, "Go away!"
As the oldest officer of Tieqi Division, as the first subordinate to follow Du Shaoqing, and as one of the arms as famous as Ximen Jin, in Dongfangyu's eyes, no one in Tieqi Division is qualified to have a dialogue with him, except for The real teacher, Du Shaoqing.
Before reaching the dark green military vehicle, Dongfang Yu broke free from the support of the two majors, threw away her crutches, walked forward with a limp, and shouted to Du Shaoqing beside the vehicle, "Master, you can't go! You can't sacrifice your fame for those shameless politicians!"
"You are wronged."
Du Shaoqing looked at Dongfang Yu, who was crying like a wronged child, and looked at this man who started following him more than ten years ago, rubbed his head very rarely, and explained gently: "I know about the things on the ink flower planet. That's what this crap Hu Lian came up with, but I can assure you that Mr. President did not know about it beforehand."
Dongfang Yu wiped away the tears on his face with his sour sleeves. Hearing the teacher's explanation, he took two steps back angrily and shouted loudly, "The president doesn't know? What about the ancient bell!"
"That's what Simon did, doesn't the president know? Master, can we just let him be the scapegoat for that black-faced president if Simon is dead?"
Du Shaoqing's cheeks suddenly stiffened, and he scolded in a deep voice, "Enough!"
"not enough!"
Dongfangyu's temper has always been sour and irritable. Otherwise, he would not have caused such a big mess with the seventh group. Among the oldest officers of the Tieqi Division, Ximen Jin was known for his ability to guess Du Shaoqing's intentions, while he was the He is famous for being the only person who dares to have a head-to-head debate with Du Shaoqing.
"Because of the bad things of those politicians, I was shot on the battlefield and my intestines flowed twice and then stuffed it back! I lay on a stretcher in the southwest theater of Mohua planet for several months! I was looked down on by those little cubs. Carrying things and running around to hide, only to survive!"
"If the president didn't know about the murder at the beginning, then what happened later! What about when I come back? Why do they still want to kill me when I come back to the federation!"
Dongfang Yu violently tore off his tattered clothes, revealing his bony chest and abdomen. In addition to the terrifying old scar on his abdomen, there were countless wounds from recent days. The foul-smelling pus was washed away, and it was horrible to see.
The surrounding officers of the Seventh Iron Division looked at these tragic wounds on his body, and their faces became very ugly.
"Master, look at the wounds on my body." Dongfang Yu glared at Du Shaoqing's face and roared: "From the first day I returned to the Federation, the government's special forces began to hunt us down, and the NTR who followed me The team only lasted for two days before dying!"
"I'm sorry for him, if I had let him leave with the seventh group even with Xu Le, or he wouldn't have died! He shouldn't have died, we have survived for so long and suffered so much before we escaped from Mohuaxing. , but ended up dying in the Federation! I'm not reconciled, Master!"
His voice was full of resentment towards the federal government and the president, and he shouted sternly: "They want to kill me, but am I dead? No! Even if I have rotted into this ghostly appearance, I am still Alive! Why? Because they forgot that I was once a soldier of the Seventh Iron Division!"
"Master, the day you volunteered to go to the seventh division to be the battalion commander of the independent battalion, you told me and Ximen that you can't just die just because you were born in the seventh division."
"Master, I'm not dead."
"Master, I went to NTR to endure for four years. People are not like people, and ghosts are not like ghosts. I refuse to commit suicide. I survived. Why? Because I don't want to embarrass the seventh teacher!"
Dongfang Yu stared at his bloodshot eyes, raised his jaw, looked at Du Shaoqing proudly and said loudly: "So I don't want my most respected teacher, Shaoqing, to do something that will embarrass the entire Seventh Iron Division! Unless you don't recognize me, teacher. It's from the Seventh Tie Division, then let the mecha run over me!"
Du Shaoqing looked at him silently, the chest under the dark blue general's suit rose slightly, suddenly raised his arm and slashed Dongfangyu's left neck, then he didn't look at the man who fainted in the arms of the officers, he turned and walked directly to the military vehicle. Before boarding the car, he shouted: "Medic!"
"exist!"
"Let him live."
"Yes."
Sitting in the passenger seat of the military vehicle, the corner of his eye fell on Zhou Yu's face, who was handcuffed in the back row. Obviously Zhou Yu had no expression on his face at this time, but Du Shaoqing always felt that he saw a few traces of light ridicule.
Dongfang Yu used to be the commander of the first regiment, and Zhou Yu was the current commander of the second regiment. These two soldiers with the word "jade" in their names were his once most trusted subordinates, but today...
Du Shaoqing suddenly felt a little inexplicable anxiety, his body was a little hot, the pair of sword eyebrows slowly wrinkled, and he subconsciously untied the third button from the top to the bottom of the straight general's obedience.
Perhaps it was the arrangement of fate. On this day, the Seventh Iron Division's march to the capital seemed to have no strength to stop it, but it was constantly forced to stop on the road.
After the troops entered the suburbs of Wangdu, they stopped again. All the mecha combat vehicles and soldiers watched the surroundings vigilantly, guarding against attacks that might come at any time.
This time, the advance was forced to be suspended because of the serious traffic jam on the No. 2 highway from Wangdu to the capital. The military MX mech can naturally continue to dash through the fields at high speed, but hundreds of armored vehicles and military convoys cannot. If you want to enter the capital to control the situation and maintain order, then relying on heavy killing weapons alone is not enough.
Hundreds of armored vehicles and military vehicles of the Seventh Iron Division did not enter the No. 2 highway. The team was waiting for the engineering mecha to open up the interchange and auxiliary roads, and then enter the armament channel.
This was a situation that had been planned for a long time, so Du Shaoqing was not anxious at this time. He looked at the traffic jam outside the window, and slowly relaxed his frown for a long time.
Outside the window was a crowd of people and traffic, and countless civilian cars rushed into the No. 2 Highway with their cheerful horns, and then drove towards the city in the distance.
The shadows of more than 100 military mechas covered both sides of the road. Hundreds of armored vehicles continued to grow in silence. The sudden arrival of the federal troops brought great shock to the citizens of Wangdu.
There was a small car accident, more civilian vehicles subconsciously turned away, the crowd quickly dispersed, and countless pairs of eyes fell on the armored vehicles and mechas vigilantly.
"Where is this unit? Why is it here?"
"What do they want to do?"
"Don't be afraid, it seems... it's Tie Qi Shi?"
"It's the Seventh Master of Iron!"
Among the onlookers on both sides of the road, civilian military enthusiasts recognized the number of this unit through equipment and painted logos, and quickly spread around by whispering.
The shocked eyes mixed with fear turned into doubts, and then turned into curiosity. The facial expressions of the citizens of Wangdu changed from stiff to relaxed, and many people even laughed, pointing to the mecha in the distance, and talking with the people beside them. The advanced equipment of the Seventh Iron Division was discussed.
Since the start of the Xilin Counterattack in the 67th year of the Constitutional Calendar, the most frequently seen troops of the federal military on the TV screen are the Tie 7th Division and the 7th Group. With the exposure of Xu Le's identity, the 7th group has long been forgotten by people, while the Tieqi 7th group has long been forgotten. The teacher still firmly occupies the first place in the exposure rate, and also occupies the first place in the hearts of the federal people who are loved and respected.
In the hearts of all the people of the Federation, the Seventh Iron Division is the banner of resistance to imperial aggression, the embodiment of federal justice, and the most reliable iron division of the Federation.
The people on the roadside and the people in the car don't know why this silent and solemn federal iron division appeared in Wangdu. They are curious about where the seventh iron division is going and what to do, but no one even reacts to this. Worry and worry, because they firmly believe that no matter what this heroic force of the Federation does, it is to protect the interests of the Federation to protect the people.
The daring boy broke free from his companion's hand and ran to the black MX mecha. He ran past the shadow of the mecha on the ground, ran to the palm of the mecha that was taller than himself, and looked up curiously at the huge giant in the sky. The mighty mecha body, carefully stretched out a finger to touch it.
A vegetarian girl who had just bought fresh vegetables and was about to drive back to Wangdu Youth Apartment walked out of the suburban vegetable market and saw the armored car in front of her. She screamed in fright, and quickly covered her mouth. Knowing which army this is from the discussion of the aunt next to her, she looked at the expressionless but very handsome young soldier on the armored vehicle, her eyes became obsessed, and she raised her hand to send her shy air kiss.
The interchange and auxiliary roads in front have been opened, and the seventh iron division is about to enter the special channel for armaments. The armored vehicle starts slowly. The young soldier in the car looks at the air kiss sent by the girl enthusiastically. It is difficult to maintain a glacier-like cold expression. Embarrassedly waved his hand in response.
In the turbulent situation in the Federation at this moment, any small unconscious actions may bring about a lot of interesting conjectures or misunderstandings, let alone the Seventh Iron Division
Looking at the waving responses of several young soldiers on the armored vehicle, there were rookie citizens who had just started hanging out in the Military History Saturn Forum on the side of the road. They came to the wrong conclusion and began to excitedly announce their speculations to the people around them. Their response was more than enthusiastic, and some even began to whistle welcome.
With a soft pop, a lump of things smashed over from the crowd, passed through the half-dropped window glass, and landed on Du Shaoqing's knee in the car.
The officers of the guards of the Seventh Division of the Iron Division were suddenly startled, and they reacted very quickly and took out their pistols to fight back. Du Shaoqing waved his hand to signal not to be nervous, and said calmly, "A person like Xu Le would not shoot in such a place."
After saying this, he picked up the fresh flower on his knees and fell into silence.
With the infuriating energy in his body and the compressed energy bar in his rucksack, Xu Le ran 170 kilometers in the steep mountains and finally arrived at the suburb of Wangdu, which he was familiar with.
His speed is not much slower than that of the fully mechanized Iron Seventh Division. However, in order to achieve this, he also paid a lot. His body was so exhausted that he had no time or energy to wipe the sweat and sweat from his cheeks. Bloodstained, looking embarrassed.
In a certain electrician's room under the overpass, he looked at the group of armored vehicles of the Iron Seventh Division entering the special channel for armaments one by one, and slowly released his index finger on the ACW trigger.
Still, Schiller said: The one who knows you best is often not your friend, but your enemy.
Du Shaoqing and Xu Le knew each other very well, so as expected by Du Shaoqing calmly, he did not choose to shoot in a crowded place.
"Fei Gu, have you joined in?" Xu Le licked his dry lips and said to the system exhausted, "We can't stop Seventh Master Tie! We can only try the last foolish solution."
The interior space of the military vehicle is huge. In addition to the three rows of seats, there is also the most important command system of the Seventh Iron Division.
The communications officer with the headset suddenly turned his head and said nervously, "Master, someone has synchronized the communication system in the division and asked to have a direct conversation with you. He said... he is Xu Le."
Du Shaoqing frowned slightly, took the intercom after a moment of silence, and said indifferently, "I'm Du Shaoqing."
When he was a teenager, Xu Le could occasionally show his sharp and sour mouth, but after he started to flee, he became more and more silent. Make a few simple and blunt declarations that can smash people to death.
So no matter how you look at it, he is not a suitable negotiator, but at this time the Federation is facing unprecedented danger, and there are not many people who can make Du Shaoqing interested in negotiating with him.
"Du Shaoqing, I hate you very much."
The straight-to-the-point first sentence fully demonstrated Xu Le's negotiating style, or in other words, it showed that he had no other ability other than angering Du Shaoqing and making the Seventh Tie Division advance faster.
"I hate your straight military uniform that is ironed three times a day, I hate your dead face like everyone in the Commonwealth owes you money, I hate the smell of ice cubes on your body, I hate your neat comb like freezing Prairie hair, of course your sunglasses are not bad."
"I hate the way you scold Zhou Yu and the others as shit in the training base, I hate your arrogance and ruthlessness, thinking that Lao Tzu will always be the best in the world, I hate you and your troops living like shit Cold machine."
"And in order to prove that you adhere to the concept of governing the army that the collective always precedes the individual, even though the Seventh Iron Division has completely changed to MX, you yourself still refuse to enter the cockpit of the mecha... Don't you think it's disgusting to be so hypocritical. ?"
"But no matter how much I hate you, it's hard to be suspicious of you on the battlefield. Many years ago, at the front line of Huangshanling, Lonely Mountain, 5460, my mecha had been running for the night, it couldn't be more miserable, you For the ambush plan of the Seventh Iron Division, I took the risk to kill the enemy, I did not hesitate to follow your order, because I trust you will not shoot in the back of your comrades."
"For the same reason, Shi Qinghai found out that Ximen Jin participated in the Linhai Prefecture assassination and planned the explosion of the ancient bell, but I insist that these things have nothing to do with you."
"I think I know you very well, I always thought you were a model professional soldier, you are just doing your duty as a federal soldier and obeying the orders of the federal president and the government, but I must remind you that you are doing The matter has already passed that range!"
"Stop it, Du Shaoqing! Even if you are still hypocritical and want to die for Pabul and his government and those ideals, even if you insist on being a professional soldier, why can't you wait any longer? Just wait for a short period of time. Time, until the impeachment case is over!"
"If the impeachment case passes, Pabble is no longer the president of the federal government, and you don't need to obey his orders; if the impeachment case does not pass, he is still the president of the federal government, so why do you and your troops need to make the situation any more Complex turmoil?"
"If you insist, it proves that you are afraid. You are afraid of Mr. Pabble, who you have followed for many years. The ideal you have believed in for many years has been abandoned by the people, and you are unstable."
"Du Shaoqing, why are you silent? Because I tore off the glorious mask of your professional soldier, so that you can see clearly that the premise of this order is that Pabul is no longer the president of the Federation?"
"Accepting an order that is not the president or not having to take an order from the president or waiting is a good choice! This is not a twin paradox in physics! This is a clear fact!"
Du Shaoqing, who had been silent for a long time, finally replied calmly: "It has been many years, I know how the tiger looked at me back then, and how many people in the federation looked at me, they all think I am an idealist with a calm appearance and a fanatical heart. who, in fact, they were wrong or right.”
"Unlike other people in the Trinity Association, I have never had any ideals to overthrow the Seven Great Families. The whole point of my life is to make the Federation stronger and completely defeat the Empire. I'm not interested in anything other than that. ."
"I don't care if the Seven Great Families control the Federation, or if a grassroots president rules the Federation, I only care who rules the Federation to be strong enough to completely defeat the Empire. You and I know very well that the carrion like the Seven Great Families is like the previous president. No politician can do this, only Mr. Pabble can eliminate the Seven Families and make the Federation really strong."
Xu Le's voice rang again after a period of silence.
"Du Shaoqing, if the whole point of your life is to defeat the empire, then you should be more aware that in the current situation, if you insist on standing on the side of President Pabur, the Federation will inevitably fall into civil war, and your ideal of life can only be transformed into A bubble."
Listening to the hoarse voice coming from the communication system, Du Shaoqing was expressionless, slowly loosening the fourth button of the military uniform, and the blue veins on the back of his right hand disappeared immediately.
The military uniform is always straight, the military boots are always shiny, black lambskin gloves, black sunglasses, neatly combed and meticulous hair, standard to impeccable military appearance, is the only thing this federal famous general and national idol left to everyone. screen impression.
However, at this moment, the tips of his hair are a little messy, and his straight military uniform is very rarely open, which is far from the image of a perfect general.
"Xu Le, I used to think I knew you very well, but this day, I still have a question that I haven't found the answer to - why did you, an imperial man, come to the Federation to do these things?"
"Why did you tempt me just now with the result of the Federation defeating the Empire? You may not know that Huaicao Shi has already started a counter-offensive on Mohua Planet taking advantage of the Federation's civil strife. If you are like her, trying to take advantage of the Federation The chaos is for the benefit of the Empire, then you should be very happy to see this scene, as you said, Xilin will declare independence, and then the Federation will be plunged into civil war."
"Why? Because this is not a war between the two countries."
There was no emotion in Xu Le's voice, and he replied in a deep voice: "There may be no such thing as justice in wars between countries, but at other times, this can be."
Du Shaoqing said slightly sarcastically: "The youth of the Four You Empire is about to talk about justice again."
"I admit that this matter should be more of a personal vendetta for me. My ultimate goal is very simple, I just want Pabble and those people to be tried, but whether this result can be achieved, for those who have died, Saying it is justice, even if it is late justice."
"There is no justice in national wars, and no heroes in civil wars..."
Inside the dark green military vehicle, Du Shaoqing looked at the flower that he was twiddling with his fingertips for a long time and was quiet for a long time, then the corners of his lips were slightly raised, and he said in a mocking tone: "If you want me to stop, then you beg me..."
After a moment of silence in the communication system, Xu Le's unprecedented serious and sincere voice sounded.
"Master Shaoqing, I beg you."
Crossing the metal bridge temporarily built by the huge engineering mecha, hundreds of armored vehicles were silently parked at the entrance of the special armament passage in the suburbs of Wangdu. More than a hundred black MX mechas were scattered in the fields beside the passage, vigilantly watching the surrounding movement. Always be ready to suppress fire.
Xu Le, who was closely guarded by the Tie 7th Division, did not feel too proud at this time. Through the ACW's aiming equipment, he watched the general in the military uniform walk into the gunship under heavy protection, and watched the seven deep vehicles. The color armed helicopter took to the sky in the light of the snow above Wangdu...
The string that had been tense all along suddenly loosened, fatigue and pain instantly took over his entire body, and he held the wall of the electrician's room with his hands and did not fall down.
Negotiating with Du Shaoqing seems to be more stressful than a life-and-death battle with Madman Li, but is this a success? He didn't know, he didn't even understand why Du Shaoqing was so persuaded by himself that he left the Iron Seventh Division with only one company.
This is because he did not know Zhou Yu who was handcuffed in the back row of the military vehicle, Dongfang Yu who was still in a coma like a beggar in the medical vehicle, nor did he know the delicate flower that was thrown into the military vehicle, nor did he know about it. Knowing that Du Shaoqing untied four buttons in a row.
Xu Le is now even more puzzled by the other party's previous words about the meaning of life. Thinking of the violent and even cold-blooded offensive that this person has launched against the imperial troops on the Mohua planet over the years, he really wants to know what Du Shaoqing has done to the imperial people. Where does the deep hatred come from
Everyone's heart has that part that is as tender as jade, it just needs to be carefully honed to peel off the hard shell that may be ideal, obsession, or desire, and then let the jade heart gently shine. , to illuminate yourself and others.
The hard shell of Dongfang Jade was worn away bit by bit by Xu Le and Qi Group's attitudes and actions on Mohua Planet.
On this day, Du Shaoqing, Xu Le's bullets couldn't stop him, and Xu Le's words couldn't convince him, just because Zhou Yu Dongfangyu and the flower were probably slowly unbuttoning the military uniform that he never unbuttoned in front of outsiders. He had already made his own decision when he was deducted.
No matter how important external factors may seem, the hardest choices are ultimately yours to make.
Dozens of Secret Service agents in black formal suits quickly pulled up the cordon, and seven dark-colored armed helicopters landed on the broad lawn in front of the presidential residence. The strong wind blown by the fighter's rotor rolled up the snow covered on the lawn, tearing the snow flakes and flying around like a blizzard.
President Pabble stood by the window of the Oval Office, looking at the officers and soldiers of the Seventh Iron Division who stepped down from the armed helicopters one after another, and the general walking towards the mansion at the forefront. The expression on his face changed from anger to deep. Disappointment finally turned into a dead silence.
He walked to the desk and listened to the sound of the heavy door opening behind him. Without looking back, he slowly filled the glass with a glass of strong wine, and then quietly watched the amber liquid in the glass for a long time.
"I already thought that Shen Li might have a problem, so now is it your turn to have a problem?"
President Pabble asked in a complicated mood. He stretched out his hand to hold the wine glass, as if he wanted to drink it, but he slowly released it for some unknown reason. He supported the edge of the table with both hands, and leaned forward slightly and lowered his head.
Du Shaoqing, who walked into the oval office with a blank face, took off his military cap and held it in his arms, stood at attention with a snap, and said after a moment of silence, "Yes, I have a problem."
President Pabble didn't ask Du Shaoqing what the problem was, and said with a mockery: "When everyone has problems, then obviously the person with the problem should be me."
After saying this, his body seemed to be extremely heavy, the tired hands holding the edge of the table could no longer bear it, and his generous back trembled slightly, like a mountain that was about to collapse.
His wife refused to come down in the upstairs bedroom, and his daughter had not eaten at the same table with him for three years in the upstairs bedroom. The slogans of the silent marching crowd could be heard in the distance outside the window of the mansion, and those who Man was his strongest supporter three years ago.
Countless staff inside and outside the official residence are still busy busy, hundreds of Secret Service agents dutifully stick to their posts, the supporters are still there by the railing outside the lawn, Du Shaoqing is behind, but the figure of President Pabul is extraordinarily lonely. , as if there was only one person.
"Mr. President, I think there is something wrong with this contingency plan from Chairman Lee Jae-do. At the same time, I insist that he is not a real soldier or a simple politician, but an odd deformity. If the federation goes according to his design, It would be very dangerous."
Du Shaoqing looked at the back of Mr. President, feeling complicated and apologetic.
President Pabble put his hands on the table and was silent for a long time. Then he didn't know if he felt something. He raised his head subconsciously and looked at the people who supported him outside the lawn.
He looked at the middle-aged men who were angry and even crying to stop the silent march, looked at the young students cheering for the arrival of the 7th Iron Division's armed fighter jets, and seemed to see himself who was passionately distributing leaflets and protesting loudly in the streets back then. There was a thunderous sound in his mind.
