Chapter 141 The starry sky is so big, where is home
(Congratulations to the new protector "tadashi"!)
Behind the Zeg group, a giant insect arrived belatedly. Perhaps because of its huge size, the movement speed of the beetles carrying it was reduced by more than half.
The vestigial wings split on both sides, and the fat and bulging abdomen lay lazily behind it.
This is a plasma bug that is slightly larger than the previous four.
The timing of its appearance was so clever that it happened to avoid the Nova nuclear explosion.
Subsequently, Zeg rushed into the vacuum zone again, and the fat plasma worm stepped into the deep pit of the red field that was still warm.
At this time, the federal troops on the ground had disappeared, and the No. 2 star-carrying ship floating on the periphery became the biggest target. However, except for the stone bullets spewed by the cliff worms that could occasionally touch the bottom armor of the star-carrying ship, the rest of the
Ge continued to charge under unknown mysterious command.
The biggest shortcoming of these Zegers has finally been exposed, that is, they have no air superiority capabilities!
However, this shortcoming was obviously also known to the unknown leader, and follow-up air troops were quickly arriving.
What they have to do now is to leave these two star-carrying ships behind.
The plasma bug fell to the ground, turned around awkwardly, inserted its four pairs of appendages into the soil, and tried to lift its heavy tail.
A faint blue light began to flicker from it, and soon the abdomen swelled up like air.
The blue light is getting stronger and stronger, and the tip of the tail has even begun to crack.
In five seconds at most, the violent giant plasma ball inside will spurt out.
Judging from the size of this plasma bug, the volume of the plasma ball will definitely exceed that of any previous one.
The tail has been split to a diameter of more than 2 meters and is still opening.
That bright light finally caught the attention of Lin Hao and all the officers in the command room.
"Major Zheng Rui and the others are about to enter the spacecraft."
"Major, look, what is that?"
“The blue is getting brighter and brighter there!”
"How is that possible!"
"How is that possible!"
When the screen was enlarged and the scene there was clearly seen, it was like an electric current passed through everyone's back, and all their hairs exploded.
The huge insect's tail was raised high, as if aiming at the sky.
And in the sky...
Now there are only star-borne ships!
"Why is this insect so big! Wasn't it completely eliminated just now?"
"Why is it this kind of monster again? We don't know what other creatures there are among Zege!"
"It's going to attack..."
"Star, carrier, ship." Lin Hao's tone was extremely dry.
The star-carrying ship hovering above the battlefield is now a fixed target.
"Major Lin Hao, we are about to land on the spacecraft." Zheng Rui's voice came.
"Major Zheng Rui, be careful on the ground behind you, there is a giant Zeg that can spit out plasma balls!"
Um!?
Zheng Rui, who was driving an air combat mecha, looked behind him and his eyes instantly locked on the huge bug!
Without any hesitation, he raised his hand and unleashed a series of "Little Fighting Cat" air-to-ground missiles.
The six missiles rotated and crossed directly towards the giant plasma bug.
The tail had expanded to a diameter of nearly three meters, and at this moment the missile flashed past in the sky.
In just half a second, the muzzle velocity exceeded Mach 3.
The missile hit the plasma bug directly.
Boom boom boom boom!
The smoke filled the place and covered it.
Is it over?
A bright blue light suddenly appeared, and a blue plasma ball broke through the smoke and pierced the sky.
The ultra-high-temperature plasma ball directly hit the No. 2 star-carrying ship.
The huge energy shield activated by the ship instantly made a depression diagonally below, and the invisible force field was clearly outlined in the spread of azure plasma.
The energy shield, which was enough to withstand the strength of level 5 weapons, only lasted for less than 1 second before shattering.
The plasma ball broke through the defensive force field, hit the bottom armor hard, and then exploded violently.
Plasma shoots out.
At the bottom of the ship, which was more than 300 meters away, a hole with a diameter of more than five meters suddenly appeared.
The red warning light flashed rapidly inside the hull.
In the command room of another star-borne ship where Lin Hao was located, in the three-dimensional structural diagram representing the No. 2 star-borne ship, the bottom isolation cabin suffered heavy damage, and there was an energy reactor near the isolation cabin.
"Report to the Major! The insect's plasma ball interferes with energy very much. Reactivation of the energy shield needs to be delayed for ten seconds."
"Fortunately...they were eliminated by Major Zheng Rui."
By this time, Mu Fan had been taken into the command room by soldiers.
I happened to hear these words from Lin Hao.
"Are these people blind?! Five more appeared behind them! What kind of planet is this? How could there be large-scale plasma worms?"
Hei's voice suddenly sounded, and through the ship's surveillance system, it had discovered these abnormalities in advance.
So under Hei's secret operation, a red mark appeared somewhere on the holographic map!
Mu Fan pointed to that area, and the small voice silenced the whole place again.
"There's more there."
Five more huge plasma bugs appeared!
They appeared so suddenly, as if they were emerging from the ground.
Zheng Rui, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, froze when he heard the message from the command room.
Those bugs emerged from the ground?!?
Zeger has opened the passage near the base?
Now the small transport ship has sailed halfway in, and twenty-six mechas are escorting it in the air.
If these huge monsters spit out plasma balls again, the star-borne ship that has lost its energy shield will be in danger!
Five plasma worms, an unknown cave.
…
His own life, and even the military's future hope - those young men were in the ship behind him.
You can look down on them, but they are indeed the future of the military.
In this case, then...
The young major had a suggestive look on his face.
Star carrier No. 1 has taken off and is in the command room.
Mu Fan looked up at Lin Hao again, just like his calm expression on the ground.
"Major, student Mu Fan, please apply for an air combat mecha attack."
Lin Hao looked at the young man in front of him whose eyes were filled with fighting spirit again, but he shook his head.
"Among the two star-borne ships... there is no longer a mecha."
At this moment, it felt like I had returned to the days when I followed Colonel Qi Longxiang, and I was just an ordinary officer sitting among the people surrounding Colonel Qi.
What would Colonel Qi do if he encountered this situation?
A heroic and indifferent man, he used his wise eyes to see through every fatal situation. Whenever he was in a desperate situation, he would always say the words that lead to victory in a calm and outrageous tone——
"Don't tell me the number of casualties, I just want victory!"
"Tell the First Squadron that the Federation needs their lives."
…
If we can win the final victory, then no matter how big the sacrifice is, it will be worth it.
If the hope of the military's future can be preserved, then no matter how great the sacrifice is...
While taking a breath, Lin Hao made a careful decision and picked up the communicator.
At this moment, there was pain in his eyes, but his voice was firm.
"Starship No. 2, now the Federation needs your lives! I, Lin Hao, ask you to preserve the last chance of survival for the seeds of hope for the Federation army!"
"So now, I order you to do your best to resist the Zerg tribe's air attack and strive for the final chance for Starship No. 1 to take off!"
At the end, the pained tone finally turned into determination!
Everyone in the command room, including Mu Fan, did not expect Lin Hao to say such words.
The Tiger Hunter captain he was familiar with, Luo Jianjin, was on the No. 2 ship at the moment, and the order issued by Lin Hao now represented his death.
"...Starship No. 2 received, salute to glory. Guaranteed, ship No. 1 will take off!"
After a brief pause, the voice from the other end of the communicator came, with a decisiveness that is unique to soldiers.
Mu Fan was exposed to such a cruel scene in a peaceful environment for the first time.
Even when he faced the swarms of insects alone, he never despaired.
Because he knows that behind him are those companions and teammates he can trust.
But now, the order clearly tells them——
I will give up on you and ask you to die!
And the replies from those soldiers had only one meaning - received.
Cold and cruel, with orders and prohibitions.
The world of soldiers was nakedly presented in front of Mu Fan.
He didn't know how he felt now. This was the first time someone would die generously to protect his group.
When the No. 2 starship in the holographic map began to slowly transfer its hull, a sudden sentence cut into the channel.
"I am Zheng Rui, please take off Starship No. 2 normally."
"I am to blame for the failure of this expedition. My fellow soldiers, you are the best warriors, and the Federation still needs you to continue fighting. Students from Dingchuan, please forgive me for my previous arrogance, you are the army
There is hope for the future, so you must live well."
"So... after this break, please leave it to me, Major Zheng Rui of the Expeditionary Force, to ensure that the star-carrying ship takes off normally!"
Calm words are like telling a plain thing.
"The starry sky is so vast, where is home... Farewell." No one could hear the last muttered to himself, because Zheng Rui had turned off the audio.
After these words were spoken, there was silence in the command room, as well as silence among the officers and soldiers on the ship.
Then involuntarily, first one person saluted silently, and then one by one, all the students, officers and soldiers saluted.
The expeditionary force soldiers who had just entered the No. 2 star-carrying ship burst into tears instantly.

ps: (To make a digression, Zheng Rui is the image that Dangdang has always wanted to portray. Only when the character has flesh and blood can it come alive. Soldiers have always been a noble profession. No matter how the political situation changes, for those who are protected, the real struggle is
Soldiers on the front line are always worthy of respect. When their loyalists are in need, they have only one thing to do - to die bravely. Even if they have different personalities, even if they have shortcomings of one kind or another, when
When the national justice requires it, they will form a high degree of unity of belief. Without the sacrifices of these soldiers, the territory would not be so large and the national power would not be so strong. Even if there are moths and garbage under any circumstances, those beliefs have never collapsed.
People, always exist.)
