Seeing that Hayes kept denying it, Little Feiton continued to pester him even more.
"Oh, I heard about it. Uncle, were you called by the Astartes? Did you also go to the command center? Did you meet...that adult?"
"Huh? How did you know?"
"I've always been well-informed, so that's it, right?"
Hayes rolled his eyes and took out a piece of dry and hard bread from his backpack. This kind of food called naan has become their most common staple food since it came to the archdiocese. When paired with the thickened soup after being heated,
The thick canned food and some unique spices are also very appetizing and good for the spleen.
"So what, just meeting someone I know."
As he spoke, Hayes tore open the dough, dipped a small piece into the bubbling canned soup, picked up the meat inside with two fingers, and stuffed the dough into his mouth.
It has to be said that canned ant-cow is indeed much more delicious than other cans. No wonder it is supplied by senior military officers.
"That's the Chapter Leader who took a photo with you, right?"
When Little Phaidon's hand quietly reached for the can, Hayes patted the back of his hand hard.
"I've been hungry for a long time, why are you kid..."
"Uncle, look, you've already eaten canned ant-cow, and you still lied to me."
"This is a military camp. How many times have I told you that you must fulfill your duties! You are acting carelessly in front of your superiors. Do you have any discipline? And what did I lie to you? Don't talk nonsense. You will be punished for slandering your superiors at will.
"
"Company~Commander~"
Little Feiton shook his shoulders again.
"You see, our regiment commander may not even know a big shot in the Astartes, and the division commander may not even be qualified to meet that one. Not only have you been appreciated by Commander Bahram, but you also know a chapter commander.
I also met that gentleman. Isn’t it a sure thing that I will be promoted to regimental commander? I might even become a division commander directly!”
His words immediately aroused the approval of the people around him. These were all children who came from the same brigade, and they all regarded Hayes as their uncle.
"That's right, Uncle Hayes will be a general soon!"
"We heard that there is a marshal above the general!"
"When the time comes, I will be my uncle's chief of guard!"
The boy's call left Hayes speechless.
"Well, you guys."
Hayes shook the fork in his hand while chewing.
"Don't say these things randomly, and don't say them everywhere. There are many people here and it will cause trouble if word spreads."
"Uncle, you are too modest. I am not the only one who knows about this. There were so many people in the regiment watching at that time. Uncle~ Seriously, when will you take office?"
"Go, go, go back to your tent if you have nothing to do. Don't stir up those unknown things in my place and affect my meal."
"Tanzuo, my good Tuanzuo, then you went to see that gentleman and he didn't say anything?"
"Tsk, I didn't say anything, I just asked about the situation. I'm just an ordinary person. I'm a disabled person who has lost an arm, a leg, and only one eyeball. I don't know a few Chinese characters, and I don't have any outstanding military exploits. What can you do?
If you think about it, you know, how could you appoint me to an important command position just because you met me once? And I was promoted to three levels in a row. This is unreasonable and unreasonable. Besides, I am tired of taking care of you. I really can’t.
A regiment, not to mention a regiment, not even a battalion. If you really have the idea to develop in the military, just do it honestly, don't have so many weird ideas, be more steady, I'll see if you can help me through some connections in the future.
If you go to the sergeant academy to further your studies, I won’t have any hope for myself.”
"I don't think that's the case. Uncle, you've done a good job. You see, no other company has the combat effectiveness of our company. Everyone respects you. You are...what is the word my dad said, oh, yes,
A natural born general! Much better than those who come out of some military academy!"
"Ha, you, I am not a general, you are the stubborn one. Stop daydreaming. Have the wounded been arranged?"
"Everything has been arranged. I have also collected the medicines and first aid supplies and distributed them."
"Everyone is tired. Go and take a rest. Maybe there will be a combat mission soon. Then you will be standing and dozing off again. Go and go."
With some coaxing and coaxing, Hayes got the boys out of the tent, then collected the trash from the meal, rolled out the camp bed, and lay down on it.
"General..."
Although he didn't take Feiton's nonsense to heart at the time, when he was alone, Hayes could not help but feel some ripples in his heart.
Putting his left arm behind his head, Hayes stared at the lighting ball hanging on the top of the tent. In his mind, he unconsciously pictured him wearing a gorgeous military uniform, holding a command knife, standing on a huge overweight tank, surrounded by thousands of flags and clouds.
A scene of thousands of troops.
"well."
With a sigh, he turned over, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
He was confused and didn't know how long he had been asleep, but Hayes suddenly felt someone pushing on his back, accompanied by an urgent voice.
"Company commander, company commander."
"Well?"
Hayes turned around and dimly saw the anxious face of the correspondent, and then the piercing sirens and calls echoing outside the tent.
With a start, he jumped up from the bed and grabbed the helmet and weapons hanging aside.
"what happened?"
"The regiment has issued a combat mission, and we must head to the defense area immediately!"
"Quick! Go gather the others!"
Hayes put on his helmet and walked out of the tent. At this time, various sounds mixed into a chaotic song. He raised his head and saw that the colorful bubble-like barrier in the sky was flashing, and the large flying Tyranids were like
Like vultures seeing prey, they gathered in the sky crazily and attacked continuously towards the void shield. At the same time, a large number of gargoyles directly passed through the void shield at a slower speed, but they were greeted by dense bullets.
Rain and laser storms, and volleys of airburst rockets.
At the same time, heavy artillery and heavy tanks were also roaring, and the shells they fired caused a series of explosive ripples farther away.
As far as the naked eye can see, there are busy running soldiers everywhere.
"Hurry! Hurry! Gather! Gather!"
"Finish counting all the heavy equipment! Get the ammunition! Here's the transport truck!"
Hayes loudly organized his company, and within five minutes, the company got on the armored transport vehicle and arrived at a garden on the west side of the Snow Palace. There was a three-meter-high wall here, and beyond the wall was a nearly vertical cliff.
When they arrived, the battle had already begun. Other companies in the regiment had built a buffer embankment with sandbags and other items, and the soldiers stood on the buffer embankment and fired.
"Hurry up!"
Hayes strode to the area they were responsible for, and then looked down.
In the poisonous mist under the cliff, countless knife bugs and gun bugs were climbing up. Their limbs seemed to have undergone special evolution, becoming more slender and more adhesive, like some kind of arthropod.
legs, and there are still four more lower limbs, and they are swarming upward like a swarm of crazy spiders.
