The two people who were about to have a verbal conflict instantly panicked.
"A Gaian fleet is bombarding the Smurf base." A veteran with dark olive skin who controls radars and detectors reported mechanically.
"Supreme God..." Backstein closed his eyes sadly, his knife-like wrinkles trembling slightly, "The call of Valhalla."
"No... Kalki, nothing will happen. These instruments are too old! This is not true!" Xuanji was as stubborn as ever, even though she looked like she was about to cry.
"The Punishment Regiment uses the oldest infantry tactics to fill enemy positions with people. We don't even have drones and shooting robots. Once encountering close-to-ground artillery fire from warships or gunboats... almost no one survives. This is how former regiment leader Ural was killed.
"." Buckstein said sadly, "I think you'd better accept that this is the fate of the Punishment Corps, it's just a matter of time."
"No! Kalki is not dead! I know... I can feel that he is still alive!"
Holding her chest tightly with her right hand, she said, "He is still alive. I am his wife. I feel that my husband's heart is still beating, and his heart is closely connected with mine."
At this moment, there was silence in the "Urustiva" command room. It was eerily silent. This was the silence of a group of men who had been deprived of their families.
"You are indeed very similar to Kalki. You two have never really lived in this world and have been dreaming." Backstein narrowed his slender eyes with droopy eyelids and looked intently at the young woman in front of him.
"I want to land on that planet, Smurf." She straightened her body like the most proud warrior, and her face looked so pale under the spotlight.
"Karki has taken away all the landing troops, and we have no reserve troops. Moreover, in principle, the mothership will not rush to rescue if it encounters artillery fire. This is meaningless except to bring in more people. This is
Punishment Corps.”
"Your captain is trapped on this star, why don't you go and rescue him?"
"What can I do to rescue him? All combat forces have been dispatched!"
"Have you forgotten how good he was to you? He told me about you and his expectations... He established order here and everything was in order. He did not treat you as cannon fodder and improved logistics and equipment.
Fight side by side with you, share joys and sorrows together, and treat you as brothers...'How can I say that I have no clothes and share the same robe with my son?' When I feel cold, he will not hesitate to take off his clothes and give them to me.
I will never forget his purity and nobility, how can you forget it?" Xuanji said, choking up, "To such a person, do you just stand by, do nothing, and sit back and watch his demise?"
Backstein was silent.
"I want to live and die with my husband. There is no one like him in this world. Just give me a single-seater space plane. I will fly there and be with him forever."
"She raised her head, her slender neck straight, like a swan on alert, "As for you, old knight, you can continue to live in this terrible place and live as the most sensible and knowledgeable punishment group.
Keep living according to the rules and regulations."
"Let's go together. We still have the last landing ship. Let's bring back as many people as we can! It's better than doing nothing!" Backstein gave a straightforward order, "Go quickly! Hurry!"
This time, Xuanji was stunned. The old knight looked back at her and said, "Karki is lucky. He found a woman who is worthy of him."
A landing ship carried dozens of veterans and auxiliary personnel who volunteered to rescue and flew to the Smurf planet. On the surface of the planet, there were bright spots of light, which were traces of shelling from outer space. War always emits the most passionate
and bright radiance.
"Boss, it's Major General Kupu." Bess said softly.
A three-dimensional bust of a high-ranking commander appeared on the screen. It was a Polynesian with some Caucasian features. He had a square face and a bronzed skin, obviously with a sullen look.
"Stop the shelling! Major Xu, you are shelling your own base fortifications without approval from your superiors!"
"We can confirm that the Platos have occupied the command center and must stop them! Otherwise we..."
"You are also shelling your own people!" the major general interrupted his subordinates, "Smov's defenders sent us a distress message. You did not have any warning and the shelling without on-site command and guidance also killed a large number of defenders. What happened?
?Stop the shelling immediately!”
The group of young people in the command post of the "Xuanji" who were no more than 30 years old were stunned.
"Yes..." Lancer lowered his head in disappointment, "But the opportunity must not be missed and must be grasped quickly... Just like sometimes medical treatment can also damage healthy cells..."
"Young people must learn to communicate with superior commanders in a timely manner. Although you are the darling of the War Department, you are not yet the top commander of a fleet."
After Major General Kupp's image completely disappeared, Tan Lin took a breath and said, "Fortunately, he didn't threaten to send us to a military court. He just had a problem with not asking for instructions on the bombardment."
"Okay, okay, let's quickly withdraw to the formation." Battelle from the flight crew interjected.
Lancer Xu looked lonely at Smurf Star quickly moving away, a glimmer of light flashed in his brown eyes, and he murmured to himself in a voice that he could only hear:
"One day, I will become the supreme commander of a Gaian fleet."
At this time, the above-ground command headquarters area of Smurf Star was almost reduced to scorched earth. All the above-ground buildings had become dilapidated under the proton bombardment from extraterrestrial space. Some had collapsed, and some were left with broken walls and ruins, lying in the dark.
Standing like a crumbling monster against the gray sky background.
Smoov's environmental maintenance system was obviously no longer operating normally. The temperature dropped suddenly, and gusts of cold wind blew up, blowing all kinds of pungent burning smells, and wisps of black smoke after burning, rising like black veils.
Rising in the dim sky.
A Plato landing ship took advantage of the Gaia bombardment to stop and landed on the ruins from the black smoke like a spiritual flag.
A group of soldiers wearing black armor from the Punishment Regiment filed out of the landing ship.
"We don't have any detectors, so we can only spread out and search within 5 kilometers." Backstein's voice came out, "Bring back as many people as possible who are still alive!"
"I'm going to find Kalki!" Xuanji ran out alone, her armor carrying her running aid, and she ran very fast.
"You only have one and a half hours... Of course, you can stay here. If my guess is correct, you are a woman of Platonic blood, but you are serving in the Gaia army." There was a hint of sarcasm in the old knight's voice.
