Coming out of the technical department, Lu Fenghan thought of Lorenz's dark face and felt a secret pleasure. Then he suddenly realized that he seemed a little... childish.

Passing by the porthole, Qi Yan discovered at a glance: "The Chanyuan fleet is gone."

Outside the command ship, the fleet that was originally floating quietly was no longer in place.

"Metierin and several others have received patrol missions and are gone for the time being. The Dingyuan was temporarily recalled and usually cruises at the border."

Qi Yan was not familiar with the situation on the front line: "Will there be no war for the time being?"

"Yes, in the past few days the battle line has been pushed from York to Lisbon, and now it has directly crossed the Thousand Islands battle line. Hundreds of planets and more than twenty rare mineral stars need to be sorted out and defended. If the attack is too hasty, it is easy to make mistakes. Especially the mineral stars, which were robbed before and now they are taken back. Odin will send people and transport ships again."

Since the beginning of the interstellar era at the beginning of Earth's history, space has become a natural mine for mankind. Today, two hundred years later, exploration and mining between planets are still one of the foundations of human survival and technological development.

Lu Fenghan recalled the look of his subordinates with green eyes: "They all like to patrol the star field, because more or less, they can always find a lot of supply stations set up by the rebels, and the supplies inside are often not evacuated in time, giving them the opportunity to pick up leaks."

Seeing that Qi Yan listened seriously, Lu Fenghan smiled and asked: "Do you like to hear these?"

Qi Yan nodded, and the strands of hair on his forehead moved slightly with the movement: "I want to hear everything about you."

Lu Fenghan smiled even more.

After a few steps, he looked towards the dark star field that was even farther away. "But a new war won't be too far away."

Qi Yan followed his gaze: "Because the rebels won't tolerate your step-by-step attack?"

Lu Fenghan's brows were a little cold. "Of course, since the 145th year of the star calendar, the rebels and the alliance have been growing while the other has been declining. It's either the east wind suppressing the west wind, or vice versa. The star field we are in now has fallen into the hands of the rebels many times, and has also been trampled under our feet many times."

"Just like the Alliance had the upper hand because of the central control system you made. But within a few years, there was a big defeat, and the rebels were aggressive again."

Qi Yan said: "What do you think?"

Lu Fenghan raised the corner of his lips, showing his sharpness, and said firmly: "Yes, I think so."

Both parties understood what the other party did not say directly.

I want to drive thousands of miles and completely destroy the rebel's temple in the smoke of gunpowder.

I want to end this long war.

I want to stop the sacrifice of countless people.

I want the three words "rebels" to eventually become history, and in the torrent of time, they will fall into ashes.

This is the ambition of Lu Fenghan as a brigadier general of the Alliance.

July 14th is Lu Fenghan's day off.

It was rare for him to take off his military jacket and uniform and put on a long grey windbreaker, which weakened the cold and fierce aura on his body. Lu Fenghan was tall and had long legs, and after changing into clothes, his proportions were even better. He went to the kitchen as usual to see if there was anything Qi Yan could eat today.

On the way, he met Vincent, who was walking hurriedly.

As the adjutant of the commander-in-chief, Vincent had been very busy with the communication in the past few days. When he saw Lu Fenghan, he rushed over with shining eyes and began to report: "Commander! Captain Metierin sent back a message that the remnants of the 11th Regiment of the rebel army were wiped out with a medium-sized ship and three small ships, as well as a lot of weapons and supplies."

Lu Fenghan replied as he walked: "Okay, record it." "

Captain Dushan reported that the migration channel No. Y377 is unstable, requesting support from the technical department."

"Contact Lorenz and let him make arrangements."

"Lorenz complained that the technical department didn't have enough espresso."

Lu Fenghan paused: "Do you need to ask me about such trivial matters?"

Vincent felt that the commander seemed very irritable today, and answered his question a little late: "Contact the logistics department to replenish the espresso supply of the technical department."

Lu Fenghan gave him a "continue" look.

In order to avoid being despised by his superiors for his poor work ability, Vincent quickly picked out the most important thing: "Captain Long Xiyun found a base where the rebels were "preaching" to the civilians in the Southern Cross Region during his inspection."

To put it nicely, it was preaching, but to put it bluntly, it was brainwashing.

Lu Fenghan said: "Tell Long Xiyun to see if he can get more melons on each vine. If not, just clean it up."

When they arrived at the kitchen door, Vincent wanted to continue talking, but Lu Fenghan raised his chin towards him: "Don't you know what day it is today?"

This question made Vincent look confused, and he asked tentatively: "Commander, is it your birthday?"

Lu Fenghan pointed to the casual clothes he was wearing: "I'm on duty today."

Vincent was even more confused: "Commander, you actually have a day off?"

"..."

Seeing Vincent's reaction, Lu Fenghan remembered his previous style - there was no problem in commenting on the model worker of the Expeditionary Force.

He patted Vincent on the shoulder: "Times are different now. Put away your clipboard, and find Eric if you have anything to do. Don't disturb me unless it's urgent."

Thinking of how Lorenz always used the personal terminal to discuss problems with Qiyan in the past two days, Lu Fenghan gave another instruction, "By the way, tell Lorenz that the knowledge gained through independent thinking and sweat is more valuable."

Because the star of the Milky Way is far away from the stars in the galaxy, the average annual temperature is not high. Although it is late summer and early autumn, the wind is already a bit cold.

Lu Fenghan specially found a beige windbreaker for Qiyan, and the white sweater underneath was specially chosen with a high collar to make his face look cleaner.

After leaving the Star Harbor, Qi Yan and Lu Fenghan walked side by side on the busy streets, and there was a brief moment of discomfort.

"I haven't seen so many pedestrians for a long time."

Lu Fenghan helped him straighten the collar of his shirt: "Me too." Po Jun,

who was temporarily at Lu Fenghan's personal terminal, also spoke up: "I'm different. I've never seen so many people."

That's right, he had been on the starship after half a year on Chenxi Star, but Lu Fenghan had no sympathy: "You can be quiet."

Po Jun: "Okay, General, I know clearly that my presence will disturb your date."

Lu Fenghan thought, it's good to know.

The two walked on the street, their appearance and figure were dazzling, attracting the attention of many passers-by.

Lu Fenghan mentioned today's arrangements: "There is a specialty on the planet Mickno called star flower mushrooms. The noodles made from them after being ground into powder are delicious. We can go and try them."

"Okay," Qi Yan put his hands in his pockets, still feeling a little cold, and asked Lu Fenghan, "Have you been to this planet?"

"No, this is my first time here too."

As a commander-in-chief who rarely takes vacations and works diligently, Lu Fenghan can describe the strategic deployment of this star field and calculate the safety factor of this planet in three seconds, but he has no idea about some delicious, beautiful, and fun things.

He knew that there were star flower mushrooms on the planet Mickno, but he pretended to be careless and listened to people chatting on the command ship to extract information.

Seeing that the tip of Qiyan's nose was frozen to a light pink by the cold wind, Lu Fenghan pulled his hand over, touched it, and put it in his pocket.

The sudden warmth made Qiyan shiver. He looked at the fallen leaves under his feet uncomfortably, but his fingertips instinctively drilled into Lu Fenghan's warm palm.

Lu Fenghan couldn't help but think of when he was in Leto, he took a starship to travel to Woz. Qiyan told him that because of the danger, he had only been to Leto except for the Lagoon Nebula.

Qiyan has a great curiosity about this world.

Looking at the beautiful eyes and frosty neck of the person next to him, Lu Fenghan tightened the slender fingers in his palm.

I want to wipe out the rebels.

Let you do what you want to do and go where you want to go.

Let you be fearless, safe and unthreatening at all times.

This is Lu Fenghan's ambition.
