Chapter 213 The warriors have not returned the expedition, leaving a will for Tianqing
Chen Feng couldn't figure out Lei's motives.
But no matter which angle you look at it, radium has no mercy on humans.
Since humans fled to other planets, radium has never stopped invading and pursuing humans.
On average, there are hundreds of small battles every year, and there are only one or two big battles.
On average, every ten years, there will be at least one major battle that may be initiated by humans or caused by radium.
Human warships are completely backward, and their performance in all aspects is inferior to the war weapons developed by radium.
If it weren't for the excellent performance of the Eagle Strike Armor, which allowed individual weapons that should have become cannon fodder in interstellar wars to break the balance of power, human freedom would have been destroyed long ago under the iron heel of radium.
But even so, the Freedom Front still suffered heavy casualties. Today, with such advanced medical conditions, casualties in each war still number in the hundreds of millions.
The most recent war occurred six years ago.
Tang Tianxin, who was only eighteen years old at the time, was just a captain of a small battleship.
The column she originally belonged to was defeated in a fierce battle, and even the column leader was killed.
At the same time, Lei suddenly took out the Halo War Beast that had just been successfully developed. Even though there were not many of these extremely powerful special warfare machines, it caught the Freedom Front off guard.
Large-scale defeats continued to spread, and the Freedom Front was in danger.
Tang Tianxin persuaded the captains of several other small battleships that remained from the defeated column, and all of them hid in the wreckage of the half-destroyed mothership, floating and sneaking in the universe for two months, close to the bio-battery at the south pole of the Dyson membrane.
A large space station suddenly burst out of the wreckage
came out, launched a life-saving surprise attack, and used the battleship engines and the power of countless Eagle Strikers to charge and self-destruct to destroy tens of thousands of radium transport ships and briefly cut off the supply line of radium. The Freedom Front took advantage of the situation to counterattack, and mankind was spared.
Take some time to recuperate.
Nearly 200 million human beings died in this battle.
Tang Tianxin rose to prominence and established the Tianxin Column.
This kind of thing is not an isolated case, it has been going on for nearly a hundred years.
If non-human beings can still obtain the energy supply of Dyson membrane, under the new medical technology, human beings can independently choose the mode of reproduction, have a strong intention to reproduce, and the survival rate of newborns is extremely high. Intelligent nannies and teachers can solve many problems.
Mostly regarding raising and education issues, the Freedom Front has pushed the great cause of racial reproduction to the extreme in the long war, and the population of free humans may have already dropped to the point where it can no longer be seen.
It can be seen that the logic of destroying mankind must have a very high priority in Lei's will.
Nearly twenty hours later, the battleship finally arrived at the Tianxin Column base in the northern hemisphere of Mars.
Tang Tianxin returned to the commander's cabin first, "Chen Feng, your situation needs to be kept secret now, so I have to lock you in a box so that no one else can see you. Please be patient."
Chen Feng nodded angrily, "Okay."
Tang Tianxin added: "Don't worry, this kind of box is a one-way shield. People outside can't see it, but you can see the outside, and the brainwave communication between the two of us is always connected. You can tell me anything you need."
I will release you immediately when I return to the base. To avoid causing trouble, you will live in the closet in my bedroom for the time being. If you find it too boring, I can leave the closet door open."
Chen Feng silently praised, your intention to reproduce is really strong!
The Tianxin Column Base, shrouded in a huge force field cover, covers a large area, and the layout makes Chen Feng feel a little familiar. It is at least 70-80% similar to the former Daxue Mountain Base.
Even if we change the planet, some things seem to be destined by God.
However, the architectural layout is still somewhat different from the Daxueshan base.
Almost no building is completely fixed on the ground. At first glance, you may think that these are buildings, but if you look closely, you can find that the design of the building is very exquisite, with a modular layout and can be disassembled and assembled freely.
For example, the dormitory building about 150 meters high that can be seen from a distance is made up of at least eight parts, and each part can be switched to fully enclosed mode. There are some diagonal parts in the middle of the splicing position.
The large metal cylinders distributed at a 45-degree angle are clearly the shrunk particle engine injection nozzles.
If something unexpected happens, all buildings can take off quickly and escape.
They really took the guerrilla strategy to the extreme.
There is no other way.
All for survival.
Everyone in the battleship simply tidied up their appearance.
Counting Chen Feng, the remnants of the Tianxin Column, a total of 271 people, walked toward the battleship's exit hatch one after another.
The small square in front was packed with hundreds of thousands of people.
Some of these are non-combatant members of the Tianxin Column Base, and some are ordinary soldiers who are not so elite.
Among them, five to six thousand people gathered at the front.
There were old and young people in the crowd in front, but they were almost exclusively young and old.
There are not many young and middle-aged people, accounting for only about one tenth.
The elders have gray hair, the younger ones are toddlers, and some are under ten years old.
The elder is usually the elder of the warrior's family, and the younger is the descendant of the warrior.
Almost everyone craned their necks to look at the soldiers walking down the steps, hoping to find familiar faces inside.
They want to know if their family and friends are alive.
In fact, this news could have been sent back earlier through data communication, but now all the major columns of the Freedom Front have agreed on what is commonly known as a spontaneous custom.
If there are still surviving soldiers in the column, the bad news will be revealed to the families and friends of the fallen only at the end.
Only if the team is completely wiped out will the message be returned immediately.
The dead bring sorrow, the survivors bring hope.
When you see soldiers returning from war, even if they are not your own relatives, you will always feel stronger.
The soldiers walked down the steps of the battleship one after another and opened the family communication channel.
The surviving soldiers were recognized by family members and friends near and far, and the crowd sometimes burst into warm cheers.
But more areas in front of the square were still dead silent.
Until the end, the box containing Chen Feng was at the forefront, and Tang Tianxin followed slowly out.
Every time he returned from an expedition, Tang Tianxin was the last one to step out of the battleship.
When Tang Tianxin's figure appeared at the hatch, it meant that there were no more survivors.
Most of the relatives and friends who are watching already know the result of waiting.
This time, a total of thirteen warships went out for the expedition, but only one came back, and it was the number of a special warship.
Eleven thousand three hundred of the most elite Eagle Fighters were sent out for the expedition, but only two hundred and seventy returned, and no more.
How tragic and how heavy the losses were.
Eagle Strike Armor requires extremely high comprehensive qualities of warriors.
In this era, warriors who can control the Eagle Strike Armor usually have a higher level of gene awakening.
The combination of two people with high arousal and comprehensive qualities suitable for controlling Eagle Strike Armor and with fighting talents will indeed make it easier for new warriors to be born.
In the past hundred years, except for some new warriors who were genetically mutated, most of the Eagle Strikers have characteristics inherited from their families.
Therefore, most of the families of soldiers here have lost more than just one relative.
Today, when the average life expectancy of a normal person has reached more than 190 years, most of the elderly have lost their sons, daughters, nephews, nieces, grandchildren, grandchildren, great-grandchildren...
Most children have lost their father, mother, uncle, aunt, grandpa, grandma, grandpa, grandma, grandpa...
How could they not be sad?
At first, everything in the square was completely silent.
It wasn't just who cried first.
Immediately afterwards, the sobs seemed to be contagious and slowly resounded throughout the square.
But not a single person cried loudly.
People were holding back tears, clenching their teeth, their eyes were bloodshot, their eye sockets suddenly turned red, and sweat was dripping from their temples.
Obviously nothing has changed, but the scorching sun in the distance in the sky has also become darker.
The soldiers who went on the expedition have not returned, leaving only their last wishes for Tianqing.
Tang Tianxin also had red eyes.
She took a deep breath and said loudly: "Everyone, our mission was successful."
As soon as she finished speaking, the square suddenly burst into mourning.
Everyone knows how important this task is.
Now that we have succeeded, we can finally cry a little more freely.
