The orange-red dust was gently brushed away, revealing a human body.

Only the upper half of the body was left. The left arm bone was broken at the elbow joint. Covered by the broken military uniform, there was a completely dry body.

Because the alien environment does not cause corruption, part of the face of this body that has been abandoned for an unknown period of time can still be seen clearly.

Ji Xinghe carefully picked up the body and slowly raised his hand. His gentle movements did not make the body fall apart and he was able to put it into the bag in his hand.

The Zhanshan mecha following him stretched out his right hand, but Ji Xinghe did not hand the bag to Zhanshan like before, or rather to the 'Yai Can' who was driving Zhanshan at this time.

Because this body is incomplete.

Moving a few steps to the right, Ji Xinghe once again used the tool in his hand to brush away the alien dust, revealing a small part of the exposed human leg remains, which he gently picked up and put into the bag in his hand.

Moving the position again, Ji Xinghe could not find the missing half of the body's left arm. Instead, he found a section of the right hand.

This made his movements stop, and he stood there not knowing what to think.

Zhanshan who was following him did not make a sound and remained silent. Yazui's level of intelligence was much lower than that of Xingyue. It only knew that it was following Ji Xinghe closely and keeping the cockpit door open.

, and prepared to take the bag handed over by Ji Xinghe.

There are already many such bags hanging on its body.

"General."

The logistics soldiers who were searching for the remains nearby noticed Ji Xinghe's hesitation, came over to take a look and began to persuade him.

"It's good to be able to go home. They won't blame us."

"Yes, General, well... The favorite saying of the Longzhou soldiers I know is that we are all brothers. I think we are indeed all brothers. Since we are all brothers, is this arm the brother of this brother?

Yes, this brother will not have any objections, and the brother who lost this arm will not have any objections either."

"Although there is a way to tell it apart,... General, it is really difficult and it will take a lot of time."

With the persuasion of the logistics soldiers, Ji Xinghe put the arm section into the bag, sealed the bag with the military tag he had just removed from half of the body, and then handed it to Zhan Shan.

Seeing that Zhan Shan was already covered with bags, the transport truck drove over. A soldier cooperated with Zhan Shan and placed all the bags next to the vehicle.

Ji Xinghe also stood by and watched. When Zhan Shan couldn't follow him, he couldn't act alone.

The empire's attack may come at any time. If there is danger, he must enter Zhanshan's cockpit as soon as possible.

The soldier put the body in the bag into the high-temperature incinerator in the transport vehicle, then closed the door and started the incineration function. Normal cremation takes at least half an hour, but this dried body was burned at extremely high temperatures.

Under the influence of , it only took about ten seconds to be burned, and then automatically ground into ashes.

It was then transferred into a metal box. Each box had a card slot, into which military cards representing the identity of the remains could be placed.

There are already more than a hundred such boxes in the transport truck.

As the remains in the bags were incinerated, Ji Xinghe once again took his Zhan Shan and those bags to search for the remains.

This job is not easy.

Although not all the bodies were incomplete, there were many soldiers who died because they were hit by a bullet, or died from shell fragments or shock waves, so the bodies were relatively complete.

But many of them had been abandoned for too long and were on the battlefield. The detonation power of the artillery shells, missiles and other weapons used by the Empire and the Federation caused secondary damage to their remains.

The flying dust will also bury their remains.

The Federation does not have detection equipment for corpses, and Ji Xinghe and others still use metal detectors. So they can only hope that the heroes' metal military badges or some of the metal accessories on their bodies are not buried too deep.

If it is buried too deep, it will really be impossible to find.

Fortunately, the alien dust storm hardly affects the Battle Scar Canyon area, otherwise the task of bringing the heroes home would be even more difficult to complete, to the point of being impossible.

In the process of searching for the remains, people in the Western Theater explained why they abandoned these brothers.

"Our war zone is different from other war zones. It seems that the fighting is back and forth, but in fact it is not at all. After the defense line with the outpost as the core is completed, the empire will launch an attack on us, and then our defense line will

One by one they were breached."

"When the empire's front is stretched too long, they will retreat and leave the outposts and defense lines that they destroyed to us. After we repair and deploy our troops, they will attack us again.

…”

"It can be said that the empire is fighting a war of attrition with us in Battle Scar Canyon. They want to consume our troops and resources because they know very well that our supply difficulty is far greater than theirs."

"In the beginning, we would try our best to bring the bodies of our brothers back, but many times we did not have so much time or energy because the fighting never stopped. Later, we gave up

There are more and more bodies..."

"Moreover, even if we take the bodies of our brothers back, they will not be sent home, they will only be buried on the spot. The place where they are buried will not always be our occupied area, and it will not be occupied by the empire.

The risk of bombardment. It has happened twice before. We can only watch helplessly as they have been sacrificed and were hit by the empire's missiles..."

Ji Xinghe listened to these words and did not express any opinions. He just continued to take back the remains and said: "This time, I will take them home."

The logistics captain of the Western Theater Command asked curiously: "General, do you really want to go back to the Blue Star?"

"Yes."

"Then..." the logistics captain hesitated before asking: "Are you coming back?"

Ji Xinghe replied without any hesitation: "Yes."

Everyone in the communication channel laughed, but no one could see their smiles.

"General, can you tell me when you'll be back?"

Hearing this question, people became worried again. Ji Xinghe's age problem cannot be solved at all. If Ji Xinghe comes back too late and he is too old to fight, then what is the point of returning to the alien planet?

The significance of being a flag is not that great in the eyes of many people.

"If there are no accidents, it will be about three years."

"Three years?"

Ji Xinghe's answer caused many exclamations to be heard in the communication channel, not only from people in the Western Theater Command, but also from the Xinghe Mecha Independent Corps that had just accessed the channel.

They finally arrived and completed the maintenance of the mecha, and came to join Ji Xinghe to perform the task of recovering the remains, and happened to hear the last conversation.

Ji Xinghe knew why these people were exclaimed and asked softly: "Have you all heard that I can only fight for three years?"

The logistics team leader responded aloud: "Yes, rumors say that you can only fight until you are sixty-nine, because people rarely live until they are seventy, and when you reach seventy, you can no longer maintain your condition."

Now you are sixty-six years old, and three years later..."

This was something Ji Xinghe said personally before, so it cannot be considered a rumor, but after all, time has changed and everything has changed a lot.

Therefore, it is time to correct this rumor.

"Yes, I did say that people rarely live seventy years old. After the age of seventy, no matter how high your kung fu is or how good your previous physical condition is, it will be difficult to maintain your peak condition. However, when I reach seventy,

When I was ten years old, I was still very good at fighting."

Ji Xinghe's change of subject excited everyone in the communication channel, but at the same time, there was also deep confusion.

"Why? General, it's not that I don't believe you, I just don't understand."

"Because I am stronger than I was then." Ji Xinghe's words suddenly became mysterious: "To put it simply, I was standing on the ground at the time, but now I am standing on the second floor, so I can see farther

scenery.”

There was silence in the communication channel for a moment, and someone asked: "General, do you mean that you have broken the limits of human beings again?"

The word "you" means that the person who asked this question is from Longzhou and comes from the Galaxy Mecha Independent Corps.

"Yes." Ji Xinghe confirmed: "I have broken the limits of human beings again."

Cheers suddenly rang out, which was a bit inexplicable. It was just because of something Ji Xinghe said, and it was something that there was no factual evidence to prove at present. However, people seemed to have heard that the sun would rise from the east of the blue star.

Not the slightest doubt.

Ji Xinghe looked at the Galaxy Mecha Independent Corps that had appeared in his sight and started teaching again.

"The fourth lesson, the secret and great power."

In the communication guarantee car that had been following Ji Xinghe, the four technicians suddenly became excited and immediately began to record Ji Xinghe's course and opened the real-time communication broadcast permission.

"This kind of power can also be called the integration of man and machine."

Ji Xinghe, who supplemented the name of the class, did not start the lecture immediately, but gave an order.

"All of us in the Galaxy Mecha Independent Corps are here to drive your mechas and bring our heroes back."

All the mecha warriors in the ninety-four mechas were stunned. Use mechas to take the heroes back?

We can't just let them bring the urns of the heroes back to the outpost. Not to mention that this task is too simple, but in terms of operational efficiency, they can't compare to the transport vehicle.

But if it were another possibility...

While they were stunned, Ji Xinghe had already completed the armor penetration and started searching for the remains in his mecha.

The difference from before was that this time, he used the giant metal palm of the mecha to pick up the body from the orange dust, and then walked to the location of the transport vehicle.

The entire process did not cause any secondary damage to the body. The huge mecha was under his control, giving people a feeling of weightlessness.

It's like what he just said, using the secret and great power to achieve the integration of man and machine.

The ninety-four mechas of the Galaxy Mecha Independent Corps finally determined the content of Ji Xinghe's order and spread out to look for the exposed remains on the surface.

The logistics soldiers continued to use metal detectors to search for the buried remains.
To be continued...
