Regarding this news, the people of the Federation had different reactions. After being shocked, they were curious, and after being curious, they gave their blessings. However, among those related to Xu Le and Jian Shui'er, Nan Xiangmei was disappointed and sad, Zhang Xiaomeng had mixed feelings, and Li Xiuzhu was about to go crazy under his calm expression.
The second young master of the West Woods Zhong Zisi smashed the television angrily. Zou Yu, who was continuing her studies in Linhai, held her son Zou Liuhuo and looked at the snow outside the window. She sneered, thinking that Xu Le was really a lucky bastard.
Xu Le and Jian Shui'er had different reactions from everyone else. This was because they knew that this news was fake, so they started to speculate about the origin of this incident, or rather, the intentions of the perpetrator. The more they speculated, the heavier their mood became.
In the preparation for the Universal War with the Empire, the Federation needed a hero to unite the will of the Federation citizens and mobilize the entire society to fight together. This was the reason they could think of.
Of course, Xu Le did not have this kind of influence now. He had not even been to the frontlines, but whether it was the development of the MX mecha, his personal combat strength, or his legendary life, he already had some kind of foundation or embryonic form. As the saying went, everything was ready, except for the east wind. The only thing he lacked now was outstanding military achievements.
If there were no accidents, the Iron Seventh Division and their commander, Du Shaoqing, would be another Federation hero and collective hero created by the cooperation of the President and the military.
However, the part that Xu Le represented could not be replaced. This was because he had once displayed that kind of heroic spirit during the assassination of Macklin. Within the Federation, on the battlefield, this kind of heroic spirit was severely criticized. However, in terms of publicity, this kind of spirit was what the military's propaganda department needed the most.
It must be known that many years ago, when the Federation's expeditionary army was in desperate straits and society was in turmoil, it was Li Pifu's most famous act of heroism that turned the tide … The people of the Federation liked this kind of person and needed this kind of person to inspire the courage in their hearts and overcome the fear of the Empire's invaders.
The Federation needed a hero, so they would create one. They had already built a large stage for Xu Le on the battlefield. They were just waiting for him to control his mecha and slaughter his enemies. At that time, they would once again activate the propaganda machine and paint his military uniform with a layer of golden light that could not be looked directly at.
Of course, this would depend on Xu Le's future performance on the battlefield. War God Li Pifu was a hero created by the collective will of the Federation many years ago. But if it wasn't for this legendary character who had written countless legendary stories that were difficult to replicate, what use would the Federation's propaganda machine be?
However, the Federation already had War God Li Pifu. Why were they already preparing for something that would happen many years later?
"My brother said that the marshal's health is quite good. I don't know if it's true," Jian Shui 'er said worriedly as she hung up the phone and frowned slightly. She was worried about the same thing as Xu Le, so she no longer referred to the War God as' old man '.
War God Li Pifu's health condition was definitely the most important matter in the Federation. It was also the highest level of secret. Although they were the descendants of that old man, they could not be completely sure.
One hundred and ninety-seven Federation standard hours later, the light warship left the core star region of the West Forest Region. Under the protection of a Federation fleet, it quietly entered the Huiming Corridor. After flying in space for a period of time, they could see a planet with an extremely strange color appear above the porthole.
This planet was of average size. Because of the tilt angle, the planet's surface received extremely uneven sunlight. They could clearly see that one-third of the surface of the northern hemisphere was covered in ice and snow, while two-thirds of the lower hemisphere was green and blue. It was very beautiful.
"Every three thousand years, this planet will automatically correct its tilt angle. The snow and ice in the northern hemisphere will melt in large amounts and rush into the low-lying areas in the southern hemisphere, bringing the most spectacular and terrifying ice flow."
Bai Yulan stood beside Xu Le and explained softly, "The early developers of the Federation paid an extremely heavy price in order to establish an administrative region on this planet. At that time, Commander Zhong of the West Woods Region asked the people who developed the planet to ignore the ice flow … So this most remote administrative planet of the Federation was named 5460. "
Xu Le narrowed his eyes and looked at the planet. Although his eyes were sharp, he still could not see the Empire's warship on the other side of the planet. However, he knew that the Empire's people were there.
The Empire's expeditionary force had established a base in the northern hemisphere of 5460, and the location of Jian Shui'er's victory concert was in the southern hemisphere.
…
…
He narrowed his eyes and looked at the lonely planet in space. He suddenly said, "It wasn't until I got the details of the plan that I found out that the Empire's expeditionary force still occupied the three administrative planets in the West Woods Region."
He turned to look at Bai Yulan and asked, "When I was young, I watched the news on TV. I only knew that the Federal Army was invincible and that the Empire's people were defeated. I thought that these beasts had been driven to the mineral planets where it was difficult to survive. Why didn't the Federation ever mention these things? "
Bai Yulan explained softly, "This is necessary for publicity. As long as the military is not determined to take back the three administrative planets occupied by the Empire, they will deliberately downplay this fact. When the Empire's expeditionary force attacked, most of the residents had already evacuated, and the three star systems, including 5460, were too remote. It was easy to forget. "
"What about the Federation's news media? Most of the people evacuated, which means that there must be some people left on those planets. Our compatriots fell under the iron hooves of the Empire's people. After so many years, did no one think of rescuing them? "Xu Le's furrowed brows were full of shock and doubt.
Bai Yulan replied, "This is the desolate edge of the universe. It is the outermost area of the Federation's colonization and development. It is not very valuable. The most important thing is that without the close protection of the military, the reporters cannot enter the frontlines."
"I can roughly understand. If the news media agitates too much, and the military is not prepared, they will be kidnapped by public opinion and launch a counterattack. It is very likely to destroy the entire plan … but it feels a little strange."
Xu Le slowly lowered his head and looked at the white, green, and blue tri-colored planets that were getting closer and closer. He said, "In order to bypass the Gary Corridor and the Night Scorpion Nebula, the Empire did not hesitate to spend seven years on long-distance space travel to launch a magnificent expedition. But this is the Federation. We have the glory of the charter. How can they still survive? "
"Six years and nine months." Bai Yulan reported a time that all the Federation's soldiers remembered. "The Empire expeditionary force needs six years and nine months to leave the mainland and reach the West Woods."
"In the decades after the first space war, the successive emperors of the Empire sent 7.3 million soldiers to invade the West Woods. This is equivalent to two-thirds of the Federation's total number of soldiers at the same time."
"In the face of such powerful invaders, the Federation and The Glory Of The Charter made them pay a heavy price. Now, there are at most 700,000 people left, and they are scattered across three galaxies."
"Speaking of The Glory Of The Charter … the first thing any Empire soldier has to do when invading a Federation planet is to destroy all the aircrafts and official electronic devices of the Federation in the controlled area of the planet. This is because they know better than us how terrifying the charter is."
"They want to destroy the eyes and ears of the charter." Xu Le was thoughtful.
"Yes, but they have spent decades and only managed to make the space above their heads slightly safer."
Bai Yulan smiled elegantly, but her smile was full of mockery. It was unknown whether she was mocking the Empire's people or the Federation's big shots. She continued, "The Federation has never admitted that any territory has been occupied because of this … Without the complete The Glory Of The Charter, of course, cannot be considered as the Federation's territory."
"Bullsh * t logic." Xu Le shook his head.
Unknowingly, all the members of Group 7 stood behind Xu Le and Bai Yulan. Even the staff of Jian Shui'er's performance team walked out of their respective rooms. Dozens of people silently looked at the planet that was becoming clearer and clearer outside the porthole. They could even faintly see the bright lights that occasionally lit up at the boundary between light and dark on the planet.
"Hydralisk II Bomb Dense Firing Array." Xiong Linquan stared at the lights in a daze and said subconsciously.
Whether it was the first time for people to come to the real front line or not, at this moment, they could feel a solemn and bloody aura spreading from the inconspicuous planet in front of them.
Because this planet was 5460, a battlefield.
…
…
In the boundary between the glaciers and forests in the northern hemisphere of the planet, a circular defense base was hidden in the middle. Countless heavy firepower weapons were placed behind the base's bulletproof automatic armor. Within a radius of 130 kilometers around the base, there were also countless sophisticated radar arrays and carefully disguised mechas.
The resources transported from the controlled mineral planets were not enough to support the daily logistics of this army. Therefore, whether it was the base or the densely packed barracks, the buildings were often built with local materials. Although they were sturdy, they looked particularly simple and crude, and they couldn't reflect the royal style that these soldiers were most passionate about.
The heavy alloy gate on the ground slowly opened. The black three-speed space missile painted with hibiscus patterns followed the precise positioning of the radar and slowly adjusted its direction. With the command of the commander, the base of the giant missile began to spew out flames. The powerful driving force made the whole earth begin to tremble. The forest was filled with the angry protesting cries of native animals.
The missile dragged a long white tail and flew at high speed toward the dark sky. It was impossible to see its target with the naked eye. It seemed that this missile powered by liquid hydrogen fuel could only penetrate a large hole in the sky of the planet, and then powerlessly break free from the gravitational force and drift forever in the quiet and gloomy universe.
"Target hit." A soldier wearing an old gray coat and a mink hat looked at the display on the master control system, coughed violently twice, and numbly reported, "The enemy's self-changing orbit satellite was successfully destroyed."
In front of the command room, the senior general with an aged face held a cup of hot tea and drank two mouthfuls. His eyes were a little cloudy and lifeless as he sighed with a hoarse voice, "Sometimes, I really envy those guys in the south for being rich. Orbit changing satellites are so expensive. They know that we will definitely take them down, but they still put them on top of us every day. "
