Chapter 354 Protect the world

Today is August 23, 2202

Just one month has passed since the end of the war. During this month, the Defense Army Command will count the number of soldiers who have died every day that have sent death notices. According to incomplete statistics, about 1 million soldiers died in this war, and the seriously injured and disabled people are almost twice the number.

At 0930, in front of the headquarters of the Defense Army, about 30,000 senior officers or soldiers gathered here, both men and women, wearing black uniforms and looking solemn.

The outermost are the personnel from the No. 1 fleet and the Independent Fleet Division from other worlds

Everyone here came to attend this large-scale funeral as representatives of various troops. In ancient times, Jin sat in a relatively forward position, pulled down his hat brim, and looked into the distance to think.

To be honest, he was completely out of mind today. He just applied to the headquarters for another voyage to Yamato. He was going to go to Jupiter again for investigation. He didn't believe there was no clue at all.

But more, he felt guilty. At the beginning, he refused to inform Kashi Yuriya of the suspected death of Kitayu, but after the command made a judgment, he listed Kitayu as a MIA personnel (Missing In Action). Because of the special situation, the possibility of self-existence is very small, which is about the death of the enemy. The notice is a hard rule.

He also learned about what happened next through Lin Kai, and his guilt towards their family became deeper. These days he was trying to make up for it, even if it was a little bit.

"What were you thinking in ancient times?"

Dasuke Shima had just arrived, and he recognized Gu Daijin at a glance in the crowd and sat down next to him. Seeing that Gu Daijin's face was not very good, he just chatted for a few simple words.

"About the search for Yamato's flight again?"

"Um"

"I heard that the headquarters has made this matter the primary goal and is preparing to transfer the Musashi from the center of the Galaxy to assist us in the investigation."

"……Um"

At 1,000 o'clock, all 30,000 defensive troops arrived. The federal president arrived at the headquarters of the defense forces in five minutes.

At 1030, the sun was in the sky. Federal President Okina Thomas and Fujido Hirakiro walked onto the stage. Tens of thousands of soldiers from the audience watched them come to the center of the podium, stood up together, saluting the three of them.

There is no word that can represent their grief at this moment. A simple salute means that as survivors of this war and as soldiers, they can still serve the defense army.

"Thank you all, thank you for your hard work"

The federal president had a lot to say, and he even wrote the eulogy in advance, but when he arrived at the scene, he found that the words he had reached his mouth could not be said, and his eyes were a little wet.

What the soldiers need is not eulogy, but time to talk about the pain in their hearts

"Soldiers, in the war with the Gatlantis that lasted for nearly half a year, we lost nearly 200,000 warships and sacrificed 1 million soldiers; we exchanged for victory and tomorrow for the earth, but it was a tragic victory..."

The president on the stage was filled with tears, and the soldiers under the stage occasionally sobbed quietly. Some of them were present who lost their relatives during the invasion of Gamyras a few years ago, but now they lost their relatives; some of them became newlyweds before the war, but within a few days after the war began; some of them were all on the battlefield, but only one person was left after returning alive...

“…”

The ancients in the crowd took a deep breath and tried to calm down their mood. He was holding back his tears

"...We will not forget everything they have dedicated to us. There is one person among them, I think everyone here knows - he is the second deputy captain of the Yamato and the commander of the Independent Fleet.

The president's voice gradually became smaller, and the holographic projector also projected Beiyu's image on the stage

"There is one thing that I hope everyone can know. He forced the shield for us near Earth and Mars when he knew that the black hole cannon was about to shoot Earth, and led his last fleet to block the attack for us...

Someone may say: Even without him, humans can successfully defeat the Ark of Destruction, but what I want to say is that he himself assumed the responsibility of saving the earth, and fulfilled his last mission alone near Jupiter..."

Regarding the incident of Tianzhi Leima, the video record was successfully extracted from Barcelona's VF19, but after high-level discussion, it was decided to list the matter as confidential.

According to Shirema's driver himself, it can be confirmed that he did not come from this world and was extremely hostile to Kitayu. They have been unable to infer the specific meanings of the two words "Experiment No. 115" and "Hakuta" so far, but Shiro Sanada proposed a hypothesis:

"This may be that other parallel worlds are being attacked by this mysterious mecha, and their lives are tragic; his target will still turn to us in the end."

They still understand the matters of this universe, but there are enemies from other universes spying on them, which makes the top leaders of the defense army very worried. However, given the consequences of the universe tearing caused by excessive use of wave cannons, even if they feel sad, they will change this pattern.

"Without him, without them, we might not be able to stand here today to hold funerals and memorial services for them, and we will never forget that everything they have done for us is hard to express in words..."

Speaking of this, the Federal President stopped, took a deep breath under the gaze of all the soldiers, and turned to the huge screen behind him. The names of all the soldiers who fell, about 1 million people, each of whom was very small, but no one was left behind.

The leader is Beiyu

"Here, I would like to express our highest respect to these soldiers!"

Everyone stood up, faced the screen together, took off their hats and saluted

After the silence, under the personal authorization of the federal president, the names of these soldiers will be engraved on the monument and placed together in the "Holy Hill" cemetery established after the last war.

As the large funeral was about to end, the federal president took out another new document, which was decided by all senior leaders of the earth after negotiations.

"Everyone, in order not to let the universe tear apart, we decided after discussion that the existing fluctuating gun fleet will be disbanded from now on!

The remaining warships will undergo comprehensive transformation in the future. As it turns out, the path we took before was wrong, but there is still a chance to correct it. From now on, for the peace of the earth and to protect the world, we will fully implement the guardian plan!”

The so-called guardian plan is to carry out a large-scale transformation of the warship. The fluctuating engine is still the main energy supply and navigation device of the warship, but the fluctuating gun will be completely separated from the engine and will be replaced with an additional modular combat component to reduce the important ratio of the fluctuating gun in combat.

At the same time, other weapons of the warship will be adjusted and fully equipped with wave wall protection bullets. The concept is that they can still exert the same combat power without wave guns.

Time flies, and it's a year later

2204, Jupiter Base

"Ancient Captain, this is today's patrol report, please check it out."

"Yeah, thank you for your hard work..."

A year ago, Gu Shijin submitted a request to search for clues in the universe and requested Yamato to re-voy. After that, he was soon approved and began to study cosmic physics by himself.

But Yamato still needs to be repaired, so in the end he only brought the technicians and the former Yamato crew whom he voluntarily followed to Jupiter base and began research and investigation. This stayed for a year

Because the crisis was lifted, friends from other worlds returned to their original world according to their own wishes. This technology has devices that can transcend dimensions in the "legacy" left by Beiyu, but only in the worlds they have visited.

Some people stayed, some left, and the Thirteenth Independence Fleet is now taken over by Casbar, but sometimes he will return to his own world, and then Maru will take over

The internal adjustment has also been made to ensure that there will be no large number of members to improve work efficiency. Some members voluntarily return to their world, but it does not mean that they have given up their identity. There will be a work handover in the middle and six months of a year.

In ancient times, he has not returned to Earth for a long time in the past few days. His mentality has gradually calmed down. Now when he thinks of Beiyu, he will not be as tragic as he was before.

1800 o'clock

"Mr. Ancient, have you returned to Earth? Let's pick you up at Universe Port"

"Ja'er! Are you still in school?"

"Ah, that's August now. We've already had summer vacation and have been taking half a year off with the school. This time we've been taking turns to me."

On the other end of the video call, Dou Jiaer smiled awkwardly. Actually, he wanted to drop out of school and stay here, but Gongsha Yejia would force him to ask for leave no matter what.

"Ah, by the way, I'll send you the address to this newly opened Niangniang Restaurant!"

During this year, the No. 1 Regiment served as a communication bridge, allowing the Defense Army and the United Army to formally connect and talk. After negotiation, the senior management of the two parties were willing to cooperate and followed the flow of the situation. The large star gate was established, opening the channel between the two worlds every three months, and then material exchange or business would be carried out.

Of course, Niangniang Restaurant is no exception. It has opened several branches in the world of Yamato, which is very popular.

It was not too late to get into them in ancient times, but the business of the Niangniang Restaurant was too hot, which made him mistakenly think that he had to queue for several hours. Fortunately, with Dou Jiaer greeting, they successfully squeezed through the crowd and came to the private room.

Greetings and chats are indispensable when meeting each other. Until the store is closed, everyone is still immersed in this atmosphere.

"By the way, we are going there tomorrow morning, and you guys too...?"

“Yeah, ready”

At 0800 a.m. the next morning, everyone arrived at the Hero Hill Garden on time. Everyone held a bouquet of flowers in their hands and walked straight to the deepest part. There was a stone carving standing there, carved a young man swaying the captain's hat in his hand while smiling brightly.

Standing in front of the statue, Gu Daijin gently put down the flowers in his hand, with a lot of thoughts, raised his head and looked at the stone sculpture's bright smile. After a year, he could finally get rid of his guilt and face Beiyu.

He gently placed the bouquet at the stone carving's feet. He looked at the stone carving's eyes and said softly in a voice that he could only hear:
Chapter completed!
