I, from 1000 years ago

Chapter 125

After leaving the battlefield for a certain distance, the Ninth Fleet finally slowed down and began to rectify.The soldiers have been fighting for a long time, and although there are rotations, they are still exhausted.

Lieutenant General Brandino is an elder and a high-ranking official, so Lin Jian personally went to visit the old admiral on board the Athena.Although he had just survived a near-death escape, the old admiral seemed to be in good spirits. As soon as Lin Jian's space shuttle entered the cabin of the Athena, he learned that the old admiral was already waiting for her in the reception room.

The second brother Lin Zi followed her to the Athena.Originally, Lin Jian planned to take Brant with her, but after a battle, her fleet also needed to integrate various departments. This work can only be handed over to Brant and Jin En.When Lin Zi returned to the Geofyn, he heard that the commander of the Ninth Fleet was now Lieutenant Admiral Brandino. served under his command.As a result, Lin Jian changed his mind and took Lin Zi to the Athena. After all, Lin Jian was still a little uncomfortable meeting strangers.

Lin Jian was thinking that when he saw the old senior and wanted to say something later, the old admiral stood at the entrance of the cabin to greet them.And before Lin Jian could react, the old admiral's words full of nostalgia made Lin Jian startled.

"I thought Lin Mo was the boy who most resembled Lin Yuanzhe. From this point of view, you are more like your father than Lin Mo."

Hearing Lin Zi's heavy snort behind him, Lin Jian showed a blunt smile to the old admiral a little unnaturally, already chopped Lin Zi into seven or eight pieces in his heart.

Lieutenant General Brandino was very talkative. When Lin Jian and Lin Zi had dinner with their father and daughter, only the old admiral could be heard talking about the past.Lin Jian was a little uncomfortable at first, but when the old admiral talked about Lin Mo and Lin Zi, she quickly became a good listener.

"That year, I took the fleet to the Palestine galaxy. At that time, the war situation was the most tense and difficult. So I gave the entire fleet officers and soldiers a few days off, and assembled twelve hours before departure. Wait until At the time of assembly, Lin Mo was late for 10 minutes. I didn’t have time to talk to him and let him be punished with the late soldiers. I asked him the reason afterwards. He has always been a very self-disciplined person. Being late is such a thing It's never happened." Speaking of which, the old admiral purposely kept it a secret, picked up the goblet and took a sip of the table wine.

He looked around, and sure enough, he saw Lin Jian and Lin Zi stop what they were doing, and all their eyes were on him.He was very satisfied for a while, put down the goblet and continued: "At first, the kid refused to say anything, but later I saw that he was really haggard, he was only a big man, but he was very thin. I want He either went to the infirmary to rest, or told me the truth. He had no other choice, so he told me that his little sister was sick and cried all night in the hospital, and he carried her around the ward all night."

Hearing this, Lin Jian was embarrassed. Although she was not the child who was carried around all night, others didn't know, so she felt her face start to burn. She didn't expect that the old admiral met him for the first time. Just tell her this kind of old embarrassment when you don't want to.Lin Zi beside him was also smiling maliciously, and while catering to the old admiral, he glanced at Lin Jian with the eyes of "you know how much I hated you before".

But what the old admiral said next made Lin Zi dumb.

"Finally my sister stopped crying and fell asleep. When he was about to take a rest, the teacher at his younger brother's school informed him that his younger brother beat him up at school and sent him to the hospital, asking him to pick up his bastard brother. go home."

After this passage, Lin Jian looked at Lin Zi with a normal expression, and sure enough, he saw that his face was even more burning than his own just now...

Hathaway noticed the embarrassment of the two siblings, coughed and changed the subject.The embarrassing atmosphere between the two finally ended.

The dinner was very pleasant, and while lying on the bed, Lin Jian thought about today's meeting.Lieutenant General Brandino is a wise old admiral, and his daughter, Major Hathaway, is also an excellent and eye-catching officer.It seemed that Lin Zi had some interest in her, but the major seemed to have no idea about Lin Zi at all.This girl looks somewhat similar to Chen Jinglan, young and calm, outstanding and restrained.When they met for the first time, Lin Jian had a good impression of Hathaway.

There was a sound of small footsteps outside the door, and Lin Jian suddenly opened her eyes.

As the commander of the fleet, Lin Jian did not give himself special treatment, but lived in the dormitory with the non-commissioned officers of the Geofyn.Soldiers live on the first floor, non-commissioned officers live on the second floor, and the fleet management lives on the third floor.

Lin Jian looked at the clock on the wall. In the dark room, only the clock was still emitting a faint blue light. It was already early morning.Who is this? I just went back to my room.

Maybe that fellow Brant was sleeping in the room of another female non-commissioned officer.But the voice outside the door was clearly not Brant.

"Bang bang bang." There was a knock on the door of Lin Jian's room. She knocked on the door in person instead of waking her up via communication. There must be something important and confidential. Lin Jian jumped up from the bed. Ben was lying down with all his clothes on, so he reached out and pulled the military jacket on the chair and walked towards the door.

It was Brant who knocked on the door, followed by Chen Jinglan and Jin En.None of the three had apparently been awakened from their sleep.Chen Jinglan smelled like cigarettes, probably because she had been in the bar until now, and the little adjutant Jin En had serious dark circles, probably because he was studying all the time.As for Brant, half of his lipstick mark was even visible on his neck, apparently interrupted while doing some kind of intense activity.Perhaps this is the real reason for his irritability at this moment.

Lin Jian opened the door to let them in, and turned on the lights in the room by the way.

"What is it that made Captain Brant sacrifice so much?" Because of the pleasant dinner with Lieutenant General Brandino today, although Lin Jian was disturbed in the middle of the night, she was still in the mood to make fun of Brant.

But Brant's frown was hesitant to speak, which made Lin Jian's heart thump.Before she could speak, Chen Jinglan spoke first.Her tone of voice was steady and had a calming effect.

"I just told Florence to inform Lieutenant Colonel Lin Zi that he is coming here from the vice-flagship of the Seventh Fleet. Let's talk about it when the time comes."

After Chen Jinglan said this, she went straight to the window and looked at the dark airspace outside the window. Jin En looked around at the few people at a loss, and Brandt was probably thinking about how to speak, so he fell silent at this time.

But within a few minutes, there were footsteps outside the door again, and when Lin Jian looked up, he happened to see Lin Zi walk in the door.Lin Zi didn't seem worried about being woken up in the middle of the night. After seeing the quiet environment in the house, he found a seat and sat down.

At this time, Brant raised his head, his expression was not very good. He looked at Lin Jian with an indescribable emotion in his eyes: "Three news, one good and two bad, which one should I listen to first?"

Lin Jian paused, looking at Brandt's nervous expression, "Good news."

Brandt nodded, "News came from the Twelfth Fleet ahead. Rear Admiral Lu Shan communicated to Lieutenant General Brandino. The No. 12 Fleet severely damaged the Tenth Fleet and is waiting to join us."

"It's really good news." Lin Zi who was sitting on the side spoke first, "I thought there was going to be another fight, but now it will save trouble."

This is indeed good news. Once the Tenth Fleet is eliminated, the road to Capital Star will be smooth.But it seemed that the few people present were not very excited, and Lin Jian suddenly had a very bad feeling in his heart.She collected herself and asked, "What about the bad news?"

Hearing Lin Jian's question, Brant paused for a moment before opening his mouth with some difficulty: "Just now the capital galaxy sent a signal to inform the entire empire. In the airspace of the fourth star of the capital galaxy, the Third Fleet was attacked by the First Fleet and The siege of the No.11 fleet, the third fleet was defeated, and the fourth star was attacked by the fleet. The death of His Royal Highness has been confirmed!"

Brant's words made Lin Jian and Lin Zi stand up suddenly, Lin Jian couldn't believe Brant's words, the Third Fleet was defeated?Grand Duke died?She cares whether the Grand Duke is dead or not!Does that person's death have anything to do with her?However, before she could react, Lin Zi had already rushed over. He grabbed Brant's shoulder and asked sharply, "What about my elder brother?"

Lin Jian felt that she couldn't speak at all, she could only watch Lin Zi shaking Brant, hoping to hear some not so bad news from Brant.

"Major Admiral Lin Mo's flagship, Pasilfa, was not destroyed, but there were also many wounds. The remaining troops of the Third Fleet fled back to the fourth star. There is no news about Major General Lin Mo." Brandt stood up and broke free. Lin Zi's entanglement, "Life and death are unknown!"

Lin Jian felt a little chilly in her heart. She glanced at Brandt and was about to walk out of the room.

"Wait a minute." Chen Jinglan grabbed her arm, her usually calm eyes were filled with pity at this moment, even so, she still shook her head and said in a deep voice: "There is one more thing." Said Then she looked at Brant, who sighed and looked at Lin Jian and Lin Zi.

"News from the front fortress! The alliance assembled troops to attack the front fortress. The fortress fleet and the fourth fleet fought hard against each other. Although the fortress was defended, but..." At this point, Brandt seemed to be unable to bear it. , He looked into Lin Jian's eyes, bit his lower lip fiercely, and then spoke again: "However, the commander-in-chief of the fortress, the command headquarters of the first-level general Lin Yuanzhe was destroyed, and the commander was killed."

The news made Lin Jian's blood surge up, and her blood seemed to boil in an instant, making her feel a little dazed.This was a bolt from the blue, and Brandt's words made her completely unacceptable!
