Chapter 72 Chapter 72 Tang En just left the recruit camp just like that...

Tang En just left the recruit camp just like that.

When Felix walked back to the training square, he was still cheering himself up.

- It will be soon, that is, within this week.

He will not stay in the recruit camp for too long. After completing the tasks assigned to him, he can be with Tang En.

Tang En said that he would transfer him to be an adjutant, and he did not doubt it at all.

Tang En would not lie about such things, so it seemed better for him to ask Tang En that question when the time comes.

Felix did not know what happened to him. In the past, he may have expressed his love to Tang En many times, but after a few years, after experiencing the battlefield, he did not become more and more brave, but became a little cowardly.

This cowardice comes from peace.

He thought, he understood who talked more about choice.

Choice is virtual, the meaning behind it is - with a better and more stable life, the edges will be smoothed by the safe and comfortable atmosphere, and only when you are separated from this safety will you be aroused to be fierce again. Some people spend their entire lives looking for such a stable life, but they are limited by their own past experiences and can only find a balance in the middle.

Calus has found it.

He didn't think clearly before, so he proposed to Tang En. Later, he thought he had thought clearly, but in fact he knew that Tang En would not respond to him, so he still proposed, but now it is different.

Time will change a person's thinking.

Oscar has changed so obviously, maybe the model sent by Tang En also means that her thoughts have changed.

The assessment mission for their military academy students came not long after.

"The mission is patrol."

said their temporary instructor.

There are six people in the team of Phylus. Phylus only roughly remembers their appearances until now, but fortunately they have temporary numbers.

Phylus is number 1, the short man B with a flat nose is number 2, the handsome man A is number 3, the strong woman A is number 4, the thinnest woman B is number 5, and the man B who obviously knows the man A number 3 is number 6.

This time they patrolled the star closest to the Federation in the Epsilon galaxy. It was the first transit point after the Federation landed. Because the distance to the next destination is far, many merchants who do not want to go deep into the Empire and whose goods are not very valuable will choose to sell their goods here. Therefore, this planet is also the largest distribution center for small-volume goods. It is very important.

Philus and a group of people went to this planet together. There were about a thousand people traveling together.

When they landed, they were stunned. There was white snow everywhere.

No. 3 saw the stunned scene of Philus and others and sneered.

"You are from another galaxy. You have never seen it." No. 3 pointed to the snow.

"This place is the farthest from the artificial sun in this galaxy, so it is covered with ice and snow all year round, and the days are very short. Merchants like this kind of weather very much."

Not only is it a natural cold storage to prevent goods from rotting, but some sick creatures will also die in such weather. As for the short days, it doesn't matter. The lights invented by humans have already solved this problem.

Phyllus felt the cold air hitting his face and his eyelashes were covered with white frost.

The gloomy weather here reminded him of Sigma, but Sigma would not be so cold. The sky looked gray entirely because of air pollution.

Their team was assigned to a local residential area.

This is not a trading place, so it is relatively not a mixed crowd. Although they said they were patrolling when they first came, their superiors saw that they were newcomers and were worried that they would not be able to handle emergencies, so they sent them here to stand guard.

Felix and No. 4 female A stood at the entrance of the town, and the others stood guard in other parts of the town.

A man A who was pulling a sled passed by and spat on the ground. He stared at Felix and No. 4 for a while, as if he was wondering why the guards had changed.

The female B beside him cursed and walked into the town with him.

"What the hell!"

Felix heard female B say.

"Sigma has already taken back three stars. These Federation guys will go back to their Valentine sooner or later. They are so picky when buying and selling things!"

"Okay, okay, stop talking."

The couple just walked over.

Philus thought that maybe it was because Sigma was taken back that these businessmen wanted to take Sigma's trade route.

There were many people coming and going. When Philus changed shifts, he felt that his legs were frozen. But nothing happened. Instead, I heard from No. 5 that there were two people fighting over there, but they were quickly stopped and the two people were sent to the police.

This place is even more peaceful than the capital star.

Philus felt that the climate here was a little cold, but everyone was living a peaceful life.

Suddenly, someone broke into their tent directly. There was a chaos, and Philus and the others in the tent were so scared that they stood up and prepared to take action. But Philus didn't even see clearly whether the person who broke in was a man or a woman. He could only see that the other person was very thin, and that person was pulled out by the people outside the tent.

Philus and No. 4 chased out with weapons.

On the road that had been cleared of snow, the couple they saw in the morning were pulling a dark child. They pressed the ragged struggling child to the ground and kicked him a few times.

"What are you doing! Don't hit the child!" No. 4 walked over.

When Phaerus came closer, he saw that the girl was wearing relatively warm clothes, but she was not yet 10 years old, so he directly pulled the man aside.

Female A No. 4 also pulled the woman away, but she was obviously unconvinced, "This is a federal slave we bought, we can do whatever we want."

Phaerus remembered that there was indeed something on the sled they were pulling, but he didn't think it was a person at the time.

"She was like crazy when she was just released. I shouldn't have bought her if I had known. She's like a lunatic."

Female A No. 4 smacked her lips in annoyance, while Phaerus was looking at the child.

Felix looked at the child lying on the ground, with some dirty snow falling on her mouth. She looked up and happened to meet Felix's eyes, but her eyes were strangely empty, and her gaze was always focused on the empty sky. At this

moment, Felix felt as if his brain had been hit hard, and he suddenly thought of himself one day a long time ago.

Felix seemed to be watching from a bystander's perspective how he lay on the ground many years ago, and then saw his former adoptive father.

Felix pulled her up.

"Sun... Sun..." the girl murmured to herself.

The sun in the sky had been blocked by clouds and looked like a blurry white dinner plate.

Although there are no slaves in most parts of the empire, buying servants is still quite common. This situation is still protected private property in the empire. Phyllus and No. 4 have no power to deal with it. The most they can do is to criticize the couple verbally, and others will also make moral accusations against the abuse of human cubs.

This is just a small episode.

A week passed quickly, and it was almost time for Phyllus and his team to change shifts, which was when Phyllus' first mission was about to end.

Phyllus was not in a very good mood before, but the little girl seemed to be doing well now. Although she was still often scolded by the couple, she could have enough food to eat every day and had a place to live.

And he was about to go back, and after he went back, according to what Tang En said, he would be transferred to her side. The adjutant actually did work similar to that of a secretary's assistant, organizing documents, conveying orders, bodyguarding, taking care of the superior's daily life and so on.

But on the day they were about to leave, the people who came were not here to replace them.

"Quick! Evacuate the residents immediately to the nearest local port, and then transfer to the backup starport of this planet!"

"What happened?" No. 6 grabbed the person who came to deliver the message.

It was very strange that this order was not transmitted directly on the optical computer, but had to be conveyed verbally by a real person.

The man was very impatient at first, but when he saw No. 3 standing with No. 6, he reluctantly revealed something.

"The Federation has troops heading for the Seventh Legion."

This is the first stop for the Federation to the Seventh Legion, and the first battle will definitely break out here.

Phaerus also heard it.

He frowned. Phaerus knew that the Federation had an energy crisis, but the galaxies under the jurisdiction of the Seventh Legion did not have mineral stars rich in energy minerals. It was understandable to attack Sigma Phaerus, but it was really puzzling to attack the Epsilon galaxy.

But these had nothing to do with Phaerus. What he had to do now was to complete the mission they were assigned.

The evacuation was carried out in full swing. The fastest shuttle port nearby was already overcrowded. People were all trying to squeeze their bodies onto the shuttles, and some people had already flown away on their own shuttles.

Because of the army, the evacuation was relatively orderly.

Plaus struggled to pull out a line in the crowd, and a tense atmosphere began to spread.

"Okay! Fly away!" The channel commander waved a flag to let the shuttle, which was already full of people, take off.

All the remaining people looked up, and the sound of the shuttle's engine briefly covered the noise.

Plaus had almost no chance to breathe, as the time required for the evacuation was too short.

While he was still concentrating on getting his civilian team onto the shuttle as quickly as possible, a loud roar suddenly came from the sky.

Phyllus looked up.

Some debris fell on his forehead, stinging, rough, and a little wet.

Phyllus widened his eyes and looked at the sky with a white disk hanging on it.

Behind the wreckage of the shuttle, there were more shells from the sky, passing through the clouds and visible to the naked eye.

They dragged long tails of light.

Just like meteors.

————————

"Abigail, of course they have to evacuate!"

Tang En's palm slammed heavily on the table.

Tang En and Abigail were in the office, and she rarely showed such an argumentative attitude. Abigail was equally unwilling to give in

. "I didn't say that all the civilians on the Outpost should be left behind. If they can make it, that's a good thing, but we can't allocate special forces to transport civilians to the battlefield!" Tang En was helpless, and she brushed her hair. "Okay, I know your reason," Tang En sighed, and his eyes swept down. "After all, the Outpost is a planet. Civilians who didn't have time to leave before the war started can hide in any deserted place on the planet. They may avoid being affected." "What I object to is your order to withdraw all the starships after receiving the nobles. This will make the civilians who come later crowded in the spare starport. Where can you let them go?" " Recruit soldiers on the spot." Abigail spat out four words. Tang En's face instantly turned cold. She didn't show any other big expression, but at this moment, Abigail knew that the other party understood what she meant. It was read as conscription, but in fact it was forced conscription. "Tang En, although I am also one of the beneficiaries of your kindness, I still have to say that civilians will never die. They will have children again. The population of a planet will play a very important role at this time. Even if the last outpost is lost, the Federation will accept them." Tang En closed her eyes and raised her hand. "Abigail, you really impressed me." "Only the nobles can never be killed. There will always be new people who aspire to become nobles." Abigail looked at Tang En's appearance, and there was an unknown fire in her heart. Tang En was always like this, very noble, and claimed to be independent. Even when she heard Tang En say "The nobles can never be killed", her heart skipped a beat. "If you don't control the nobles, they will take their assets and join the Federation. Can't you think of this?" Abigail asked Tang En loudly, and it seemed that her voice was a little broken. "I never objected to you taking the nobles away first," Tang En's eyes, which could be called emotions before, had all disappeared, and were replaced by a very calm and clear look, "I object to you not evacuating after taking the nobles away." Abigail was looked at by her eyes, and a sense of weakness suddenly appeared in her heart.

——You have already abandoned yourself, Abigail. The Abigail who was not afraid of power on the Capital Star and would spit on the "shitty First Legion" after offending the nobles is gone.

Abigail pursed her lips, "That is also the home of all the civilians on the Outpost Star. They should have the obligation to protect the Outpost Star."

Tang En responded with a polite smile, but there was always a sense of mockery in Abigail's eyes.

"Isn't that right?" Abigail smiled back.

"Maybe it's right," Tang En pointed outside the door, "If the civilians on the Outpost Star can solve this problem themselves, then there would be no need for the legion's soldiers."

Tang En's sarcasm was very humorous and natural. The serious and tense atmosphere just now had disappeared, and her tone was like chatting.

"That's it." Tang En turned and left.

Abigail watched Tang En's back as he left, but did not stop him.

After she regretted for a while, she thought that she was too impatient.

Tang En had only been in the Seventh Legion for two years, and was even controversial at the beginning, but after she resolved all those difficulties, she gained greater reputation and was more valued than those newcomers who had just arrived and had to climb up step by step.

Even though Abigail had a friendship with Tang En before, she did not want to be suppressed by Tang En.

Seeing that the war between the Federation and the Seventh Legion had begun, this was both a crisis and an opportunity. The Ninth Legion had lost an adult before, and Abigail absolutely did not want to become that embarrassed person.

Tang En returned to his office and calmed down for a while.

——Abigail can't change her mind. Whether she doesn't want to do anything else after protecting the nobles or she wants to go against her, with the commander of the Seventh Army, Doug, above her, it won't cause a big storm that affects the war situation.

So she should go to commander Doug and convince him.

Will Doug believe her? What point of view can she use to convince him?

Tang En tapped her forehead with her clasped hands. First of all, the Seventh Army did not need so many cannon fodders. A planet still had a population of several hundred million. On the battlefield today, ordinary people who did not know how to operate various weapons and equipment and had not been trained might cause trouble to the well-trained army. Secondly, the backup starport would also be responsible for transportation in the future. It would be troublesome to have so many ordinary people there, so they had to be transported away.

It was enough for her to stick to these two points.

Abigail's brain and logic were not enough.

Tang En was sure that she could persuade the commander to at least evacuate the civilians gathered in the starport, and the rest who could not be caught up could hide on the outpost first as she said before.

"Captain Campbell!"

Tang En opened the door and bumped into a soldier.

The soldier looked anxious and his steps were in a panic.

"The commander wants you to go over. The battle on the outpost has already started!"
