The First Order

Countdown to the third day.

early morning.

The autumn rain stopped briefly, and the air was filled with the earthy smell after the rain.

On the defense line of the third echelon where the command camp was located, the sound of gunfire on the defense line of the second echelon could be heard.

The abyss crack that traverses the ground blocks the way of the second enemy army in the northwest. Those walking artificial intelligence soldiers have to march for at least a day to bypass the crack that is dozens of kilometers long.

Yan Liuyuan single-handedly blocked the biggest crisis in front of the Dawn line of defense.

When Yan Liuyuan led the herdsmen to the line of defense from the north, Ren Xiaosu noticed Yan Liuyuan's short inch like an ascetic at a glance.

He was stunned for a moment, then asked Yan Liuyuan, What's the matter with your hair?

Oh, it's alright, Yan Liuyuan explained with a smile: It will grow again. Brother, I have more than 20,000 warriors from the tribe here, and they may be able to help you.

As a result, P5092 next to him shook his head and said: No, now the Dawn defense line is planning to retreat backwards. If you have spare strength, please help take some wounded away.

Yan Liuyuan thought for a while and said, Okay.

In this line of defense, apart from the combat troops of the third echelon line of defense, the only ones who could leave alive were the wounded who were evacuated.

It's not that P5092 suddenly promotes some humanitarian spirit, but that these wounded can't continue to fight even if they stay on the ground.

At this time, there is a special unit responsible for transporting the wounded. They are going to each position to count the specific number of wounded and then retreat with them.

At position 141, the soldiers had just repelled a group of enemy troops and were able to take a short rest.

The battalion commander of the 2nd Iron Battalion of the 2nd Division, who was in charge of this position, was dressing his wounds by his orderly.

In the middle of the night last night, in a sudden attack, a shot from an unknown source hit him in the arm, which literally broke his arm bone.

There are splints specially used to fix bones in the military camp, but it is not necessary to use wooden sticks to fix them.

When the battalion commander was dressing the wound, cold sweat broke out on his aching forehead, and his lips were white.

The kind of heart-piercing pain after a broken bone, the tough guy in the northwest couldn't bear it.

At this moment, a young soldier in the position ran over, and he said to the battalion commander with a look of surprise: battalion commander, the rear requires all the wounded to be evacuated. It is said to be evacuated to the 178 fortress. Let them take a look at the injuries in the past, now only the wounded can retreat, and the sister-in-law is still waiting for you at home.

In fact, the soldiers of the Northwest Army in the second echelon already knew that they could not retreat, and they had to buy time for their comrades in the back to retreat.

How to buy time? Use your life.

Everyone was uncomfortable at first, but for some reason, everyone accepted this reality overnight.

No one is responsible for doing ideological work for them, and no one is here to fool them about their family and national feelings. Everyone just thinks that since they are soldiers of the Northwest Army, they should not be greedy for life and fear of death.

The three words of the Northwest Army seem to be an inexplicable emotion.

The soldiers of the Northwest Army don't seem to have much special treatment. Instead, when they live in the barriers, they have to give up their seats everywhere. When sitting on the tram, they have to give up their seats to the elderly and children, for fear of soiling the epaulettes on their shoulders.

Just like this young soldier, he was not from Fortress 178, but was drafted into the army after the unification of the Northwest.

He didn't know why, but when he saw the bright red banner at the recruitment office that day, he went to sign up.

When the No. 144 barrier trade was prosperous, many people in my family persuaded me not to go to the Northwest Army as a soldier, and to do business with my uncle, and earn more than being a soldier.

But every time he smiled and didn't speak, and he didn't know how to answer, but he just wanted to stay in the Northwest Army.

The same is true now. Although he knew that he would die if he stayed, he just wanted to stay with his comrades on the ground.

There's no reason, he just thinks this is what he should do.

But things are different now. The wounded had a legitimate reason to leave. The young soldier knew that the battalion commander had two children and that his wife was not working, so the family could not live without him.

Therefore, he was thinking that the battalion commander could take this opportunity to leave the second echelon of defense and retreat with the main force.

This is not because of fear of death, but because the current arm of the battalion commander is indeed inappropriate to continue fighting on the ground.

At this time, footsteps were heard outside the tent.

The young soldier saw the battalion commander rip off the splint on his arm and cover the wound on his arm with his uniform.

Someone came in from outside, and a strange face said to everyone: I heard that there are wounded here, we are going to take the wounded away and evacuate together.

As a result, before the others could speak, the battalion commander said, It must be a misunderstanding, we have no wounded here.

The soldier in charge of evacuating the wounded froze for a moment: Really?

He glanced at the battalion commander suspiciously. In fact, even if the battalion commander removed the splint, his face could not be that of a normal person, so he had already seen that the battalion commander was injured.

The battalion commander hesitated and said, Brother, I want to be with my brothers, I can't go back by myself.

The soldier in charge of evacuating the wounded was silent for a few seconds, then stood up straight, saluted the battalion commander, and turned to leave.

They didn't say much to each other. Everyone was a soldier of the Northwest Army. If they were replaced by themselves as the battalion commander, maybe they would choose the same.

After the soldiers who evacuated the wounded left, the young soldier looked at his battalion commander in a daze and said, Batch commander, don't you want to go back? You are really injured, not pretending to be injured, this is not fear of war.

The battalion commander scolded and said: Grass, it hurts me to death, quickly fix the splint to me again, by the way, tell those bastards outside, they all cheer me up, the last battle must be fought beautifully. of.

The battalion commander did not answer the young soldier's questions.

For example, this kind of thing happened so many times in the entire second echelon defense line that the soldiers responsible for the retreat all had red eyes.

At this time, it was not yet dawn, and the group army on the defense line of the third echelon began to evacuate to the 178 fortress at night when the satellite visibility was low.

Before everyone left, they all saluted in the direction of the second echelon defense line.

Just as the 1st Army Group was withdrawing from the Dawn defense line, Ren Xiaosu, Yang Xiaojin, Yan Liuyuan, and Sister Xiaoyu stood on the edge of the position, looking at the night sky outside.

Yan Liuyuan looked at Ren Xiaosu and smiled, Brother, are you hesitating?

Ren Xiaosu sighed, You know what I'm thinking?

Well, Yan Liuyuan nodded: Artificial intelligence seems to be unstoppable. I haven't been able to think of another way to resolve this crisis, so it seems that the only way out is.

The way out that Yan Liuyuan said was Ren Xiaosu's incarnation of the will of the world, in order to cut off Zero's future from the root.

No matter how powerful Zero is, he is still in this world and cannot compete with the world itself.

So, when disaster strikes, the question always seems to be between sacrificing others or sacrificing yourself.

Ren Xiaosu said in a low voice, Sometimes I think, since this is the only choice, I'll just be more decisive, so that fewer soldiers in the Northwest Army will die. The more I hesitate, the more people will be affected by this disaster. Death. But Liu Yuan, you know, I have always been a very selfish person, and I never thought about sacrificing myself for anyone before this, unless it was for Xiaojin, you, and Sister Xiaoyu.

Well, I know, Yan Liuyuan said in a low voice: So, I rushed over this time, actually like I wanted to stop you. Brother, let's get out of here. This world is huge, no matter how powerful Zero is. , and there is no place for us. Well, I know it may be a bit self-deceiving to say this, but brother, I really don't want to see you sacrifice yourself for the whole world, obviously it's so unfair to you.

Ren Xiaosu said, Can I chat with Xiaojin alone?

Yan Liuyuan and Sister Xiaoyu looked at each other and left silently.

Ren Xiaosu took out a tarp from the space and spread it on the high platform at the edge of the trench. He sat side by side with Yang Xiaojin on it, looking at the dark night sky.

You don't want me to go that far, do you? Ren Xiaosu asked.

Well, Yang Xiaojin said firmly, Xiaosu, do you know that no one should give anything to this world.

Liu Yuan always felt that the world was a little bad to me, but I felt that I was actually quite lucky to have such a beautiful girlfriend and such strong strength. I used to think my parents abandoned me, but Only after I went to the wizarding country did I know how much they had sacrificed to keep me alive. So I don’t feel that I am so miserable at all. I heard that my father was in the last catastrophe to save everyone. And Falling, thinking about it now, I actually admire his courage. In fact, after listening to his story from the knight, I found that he is a more qualified leader, and I am just a child who does not have much direction.

Yang Xiaojin shook her head: You don't need to do what he did.

But, there is no other way, Xiaojin, you have to live, Ren Xiaosu said with his head lowered.

Yang Xiaojin turned her head to look, she suddenly found that Ren Xiaosu's expression was hidden in the shadows, and she couldn't see what was going on.

Ren Xiaosu continued to whisper: If I hesitate any longer, maybe even you will die. I thought about it all day yesterday, and suddenly found that I can't accept this kind of result. I don't have to save the world, but I want to save you. Ah. We all have to admit that the power of Zero has grown to such an extent that we have to face it one day, maybe we can temporarily escape to the wizarding country, or live alone in a farther place. But every escape Over time, it becomes even more invincible.

Yang Xiaojin stared blankly at Ren Xiaosu, in this cruel battlefield, under the sky, the other party suddenly used simple logic to say the most unforgettable love words, which made her a little unable to resist.

Then you can't sacrifice yourself, Yang Xiaojin said.

Ren Xiaosu smiled bitterly: I don't want to either. If you really want to be alive, who wants to die?

Promise me, since Qing Zhen said to wait for him for 9 days, then we will wait until the ninth day to see, Yang Xiaojin said, If he fails on the ninth day, I will accompany you wherever he goes. .

...

The Northwest First Army has withdrawn most of the Dawn Line. In P5092's plan, the second-tier line of defense will block the AI ​​for nearly a day.

There are still about 131 kilometers away from the 178 fortress. According to the speed of the artificial intelligence troops, they will have a decisive battle at the 178 fortress on the last day.

Whether it is life or death, it will be revealed on that day.

On the way to withdraw from the position, among the tens of thousands of people, Wang Yun suddenly asked: Hey, what about the P5092 people? He just watched us evacuate together?

While talking, Da Huyou and others also looked around for the figure of P5092.

At this time, Ren Xiaosu, who knew P5092 best, turned back and ran to the position without saying a word. When he rushed all the way into the commander-in-chief's tent, he happened to see P5092 aiming his gun at his chin.

Ren Xiaosu's palm passed through the Gate of Shadows and slapped the muzzle of the gun aside. There was a bang, but if Ren Xiaosu was slower, P5092 would have been dead.

What are you doing?! Ren Xiaosu said in surprise, Why did you commit suicide?

P5092 said: The last task of the Dawn Line of Defense has been completed, so my task is also completed. In the future war, it will not be of great significance with me or without me. On the day of the decisive battle at Fortress 178, it was not a strategy. , but courage.

So you are going to die? Ren Xiaosu frowned and asked, Why?

Just because I personally sent the black foxes and the others to carry out the most dangerous mission, and because I refused the retreat of the frontline soldiers of the Dawn Defense Line, P5092's eyes were full of exhaustion.

In order to win the war, P5092 made all the coldest decisions, and issued one cold-blooded decision after another.

However, it was for victory, not for himself.

If he hadn't carried the Tinder beliefs, maybe he would have made other choices.

P5092 said softly: On the day I parted with the black fox, I always wanted to be like the officers of other units, living and dying together with the soldiers and fighting side by side, but I knew that the dawn defense line needed me, so I couldn't die. However, as a commander , I am ashamed of them.

Ren Xiaosu was silent, he didn't know how to comfort the military genius in front of him.

Obviously the other party was born for war, but he has a kind heart.

But the kinder heart of the other party, the more painful every decision will be made.

This kind of pain kept accumulating, and finally P5092 had the idea of ​​committing suicide. The other party wanted to accompany his soldiers, because he personally sent these soldiers to a dead end.

Even if he has very valid reasons.

Ren Xiaosu put the P5092's gun into his palace space, and said coldly, After this war is won, I will naturally find a way to use the Temple of Heroes to wake up the black foxes, but if you have committed suicide by then, then you It can only be separated by yin and yang, because the Temple of the Spirit cannot summon people who commit suicide.

P5092 was stunned for a moment. At this time, he suddenly remembered Ren Xiaosu's ability: But there are more than 10,000 Tinder combat troops led by Heihu! Luo Lan's Hall of Heroes can only summon 12 people.

Ren Xiaosu said earnestly: That's because Luo Lan can't do it, it's not because of this ability.

At this moment, the artificial intelligence also seemed to realize that the Northwest Army on the Dawn Line was withdrawing.

For a time, all the defenders of the second echelon defense line felt the pressure doubled, as if a majestic tsunami was coming.

Together with the troop blocked by Yan Liuyuan with the abyss, they began to advance at a trot speed.

In the southwest direction, the two troops that were heading north from the Qing family actually lost some of the baggage they had carried before, in order to achieve the purpose of speeding up again.

The turbulent tsunami will directly flood the Dawn defense line and swallow the 178 fortress.
