I, from 1000 years ago

Chapter 31

When Lin Jian returned to the dormitory, Angelina was also there, but Chen Jinglan was also lying on the bed unexpectedly, holding a small video simulator in her hand and watching seriously.Lin Jian returned to her bed, fell on her back, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

"You look very tired. Have you been training hard recently?" Angelina walked to Lin Jian and leaned over to ask concerned, "If you are very tired, why don't you go to the school doctor, although it may be a bit difficult to get a supplementary slot Disgusting, but still very effective for physical recovery."

"Thank you, Angelina, it's not because of the training, it's just, it's just that some things are bothering me, making me unable to calm down."

"Huh? Do you also have times when I'm uneasy?" Angelina looked surprised, she looked up at Chen Jinglan, and said in a low voice: "I thought you were like Lan, a madman who was always calm. "

"Hey, I heard it." Chen Jinglan's voice came, and Angelina made a face.

"Speaking of which, what's the matter with you, if you can, tell us, maybe we can share some for you."

Lin Jian looked up and saw Angelina's worried expression, and then saw Chen Jinglan put down the simulator in her hand and looked at herself.

"It's nothing. It's not my problem. It's a friend of mine. He seems to be in trouble, but he doesn't want to tell me, so I'm a little annoyed." Lin Jian scratched her hair, a little embarrassed, "I feel like a failure, I treat them as friends, but they still think of me as a child."

"Eh? How could this be?" Angelina was surprised, "I don't think you are a girl of your age at all, Lin Jian. In my opinion, you and Lan, the two of you let me know about the girl from the imperial capital. My cognition has improved several notches. To be honest, before I came to the imperial capital, I thought the girls here were just some butterflies who just surrounded the social world all day long. Oh, of course, this is what my tutor told me Yes. But I think if your friend doesn't want to tell you it must be because it's a troublesome thing, and maybe he doesn't want you to be bothered about it."

"I think you're right." Lin Jian sighed, a little helpless, "I just feel a little frustrated."

"Is it Granshire von Nolan?" Chen Jinglan's voice sounded suddenly, and Lin Jian quickly set his sights on her.

Chen Jinglan gave a rare smile: "In my opinion, you don't seem like the kind of person who has many friends. The one who can make you so upset must be someone you know very well. Apart from your family, it seems that there is only that person .”

Lin Jian nodded, and answered after a while: "Yes, you guessed right."

"That's a very complicated person." Chen Jinglan sat up from her bed and nodded, "If it's because of him, I think I can help you a little bit, because of my brother, I can't help but think about the trio back then. Some research."

A moment of excitement surged in Lin Jian's heart, she sat up suddenly and looked at Chen Jinglan.Angelina looked at the two of them and was speechless for a moment.

"Yes, Gran graduated from the military academy with excellent grades, and he seemed to have entered the military, but he quickly retired and went to medical school again. Although he achieved as much as he did in the military, he I still don't understand the reason. In addition, he is obviously the eldest son of Earl Nolan's family, but he was deprived of the qualification to inherit the title, there must be a very important reason." Lin Jian said while thinking, she didn't feel the slightest It's not in line with her character to pour out her troubles to others. Deep down, she already treats the two of them as sisters.

"I don't know the reason why Granshire retired from the military. It's just that something happened that year, maybe it has something to do with it." Chen Jinglan thought for a while, picked up a small information storage card from her bed, and then Plugged it into the communicator on his wrist and began to search, "This is it. It was in his first year in the military. He was a lieutenant at the time. During a routine cruise with the team, his squad Two people died because of an accident. But the military department didn't think it was his fault at the time, because he was not the one who led the team with the highest rank at that time, so the team was not under his command. But the two people who happened in this incident A month later, he retired from the military. I think, if it is related to this incident, this incident itself may be just a fuse, and the real reason may go deeper."

Chen Jinglan looked at Lin Jian's frowning and thinking, and sighed: "These things happened a long time ago. Since he doesn't want you to know about some things, there must be a reason. Seeing him nervous about you that night, it's also true. Treating you as an important person, I don’t want you to know, maybe it’s really for your own good, why do you have to know?”

Why do you have to know, Lin Jian looked at Chen Jinglan, Chen Jinglan was startled by the sadness on his face.

After all, they couldn't understand the feeling of being alone. Maybe some people were lonely and rarely had friends since childhood, but that kind of loneliness couldn't compare to her complete loneliness.How does it feel that there is no one like her in the whole world?They have the same appearance as her, speak the same language, and have the same history, but there is still a gap of 1000 years.Intuitively, Lin Jian almost regarded Granshire as the driftwood he saw when he was drowning, and even if he landed on the shore, he would not want anyone to take him away.

"Lin Jian..." Angelina also saw Lin Jian's appearance, a little flustered, and then suddenly thought of something, and pulled out a chapter of posters from the communicator on her wrist, "Look, this It is the year-end interstellar travel route launched by Nantes Travel Company this year. When your freshman competition is over, the three of us will go on a trip and have a good time. The Democratic Alliance galaxy and the Federation are all on the route, and there are even Vega galaxies and The Cinderella galaxy. How about it, I treat you, maybe the three of us will be separated in a few years. So let's go play together, and you can relax."

Angelina's slightly anxious tone softened Lin Jian's heart instantly. She looked up at the younger girl, the worry in her eyes was so obvious, and Chen Jinglan, she stood silently Beside her, there is a kind of persistence that isolates her from loneliness.

"The main guns are fully fired, and now, attack the opponent's fleet in W53 airspace with all its strength." The slightly immature female voice echoed in the classroom of the simulation field, attracting many sergeants who had been in the army for a long time to peep casually.

Do you want to attack the fleet in W53 airspace with all your strength?The timing seemed a little too early, the ship operator Matthews shrugged, and obeyed the order to turn the battleship, hiding the huge hull behind two hundred frigates.He was picked today to man the flagship.To be honest, he was quite upset about being picked to participate in an inexplicable game on the rest day. He has been on the battleship for three consecutive months, and he finally got the rest day. Why should he go to the Playing cops and robbers with that kid in military school.

Matthews took the time to glance at the boss standing next to the girl. That was Colonel Fallainen, the Chief Staff Officer of the First Fleet.I have to say that those two standing together really look like the most famous oil painting of the last century, which is pleasing to the eye, and because of this, the colleague next to him, that old pervert who eats both men and women, has been scolded by the captain twice.Fortunately, that old pervert is a rare manipulator, otherwise, he would have been sacked and beaten to death as early as 800 years ago.

"Princess Catherine?" Matthews turned his gaze back to the console, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw the old pervert beside him biting an unlit cigar, which was his habit.

"Hey, from my point of view, this Highness is at least a lot better than many moths." The old pervert bit his cigar and grinned, showing his dark white teeth, "Oh, relax, Matthews. How about going to the bar with me tonight, I know where the most wonderful bar in the whole capital is."

"Shut up, old bastard." Matthews glanced at the old pervert, and continued to look at the two reflected from the smooth surface of the console.Her Royal Highness is already 15 years old this year, and she has officially entered the Draconde Starship Academy to study. Behind her is the support of the Minister of Military Affairs, which means that there are at least four fleets behind her ready to serve her at any time. Among them Also includes the First Fleet where he served.As a small soldier, he has no right to choose his own path, and he can only hope that his superiors will not be on the wrong team.

But at least from now on, this princess doesn't seem to be much different from Huatrige. Although the age gap is a bit bigger, but fortunately there is a young colonel beside her, isn't there?

"Some people are just lucky, they are born with a beautiful skin," the old pervert followed Matthews' gaze, saw the picture of the two standing side by side, glanced at Matthews again, and sighed Said: "Actually, Matthews, you look good too? From a woman's point of view, you look better than that guy."

"Do you know what kind of man women like?" Matthews said with a sneer.Although Colonel Fallainen was criticized by the outside world, as a member of the squadron directly under him, Matthews knew his abilities quite well.In the squadron under Admiral Hoffman, Colonel Fallainen is definitely the best.This person is not just about appearance.Among the young senior officers in the entire empire, the only one who can compete with him is probably only Major General Lin Mo.

Fallainen stood in the gravity sound-shielding field of the bridge, looking at the image of the enemy ship coming from the electronic crystal screen ahead.The good-looking brows frowned slightly, still a little eager to get it done.

In order for the princess to obtain the most urgently needed military exploits as soon as possible, in fact, the biggest gap between the princess and Grand Duke Waltrig is in this aspect. Although Grand Duke Waltrig is violent, he has indeed made a lot of military exploits for the empire. The military power of the Galactic Empire can be said to be what Grand Duke Waltrig relies on most.The princess was young, and the nobles on the side of the Minister of Military Affairs had no choice but to encourage her. They even stationed the two squadrons of the First Fleet in the capital star to assist her in her studies.

At the end of this year, the simulation competition for new students in the military academy is the first step for Her Royal Highness to step up to. Win the competition for freshmen, and if she can get a good ranking in the main competition later, the princess will be able to appear in public with a high profile before.In the centuries-old history of the Galactic Empire, there were not many queens with outstanding abilities. Therefore, if Her Royal Highness Princess appeared on the stage like this, it would definitely remind the public of Her Majesty the Queen who almost unified the Milky Way.The most glorious history is always stuck in the memory, and the people are willing to find similarities in it.Thinking of this, he suddenly thought of another girl.The girl I saw for the first time at the engagement banquet of the second son of Earl Nolan's family, she was quite different from the rumors.He followed the fleet on patrol for more than a year, and heard rumors about her when he returned to Capital Star. It is conceivable that even a person like him who doesn't get along with everyone can know about those things. It can be seen that the girl How powerful are the rumors in Capital Star.

Presumably her brother was also having a headache because of this, thinking of Major General Lin Mo, a smile appeared on the corner of Falaining's mouth.

The officers of the entire First Fleet, including Admiral Hoffman, are actually quite friendly people. In fact, most of the officers in the entire empire are upright. Living in a pure collective all year round, how good at intrigue can you expect them to be.It is those noble politicians who are really proficient in playing politics.The soldiers are just their pawns, but it's a pity that they can't change this status.Therefore, although everyone is on different political positions, the officers of the entire First Fleet have a very good opinion of the youngest major general in the empire. More than once at the regular meeting of the fleet, someone patted him on the shoulder to encourage " Falainen, we firmly believe that that guy's record will be broken by you."

That major general, it is said, is an extremely upright person, and almost the entire military community has no negative comments on him. Even the Minister of Military Affairs has only a look of regret when talking about him, regretting that the outstanding young officer is not standing his side.

Lin Jian, his younger sister, the girl who was criticized by countless people but surprised after seeing her a few times, heard that she is studying in Azu Turan now, so I don't know if she will participate in this freshman competition.Thinking of this, Fallainen became interested in this child's game for the first time.What kind of performance will that girl who is about the same age as the princess but calm and indifferent like an adult who has gone through vicissitudes.To be honest, he was kind of looking forward to it.

Just as he was thinking, there was a huge earthquake, and Fallainen instantly supported the horizontal bar of the gravity sound shielding field, and with the other hand, he grabbed Her Royal Highness who almost fell to the ground.

"What's going on?" Princess Catherine asked loudly as she barely stood still with Falainen's support.

"Report! An enemy fleet appeared 720 kilometers away from our side."

"Report! The enemy fleet in W53 airspace is approaching us."

"Report! Enemy flagship found in the upper airspace!"

"Could it be that the one above is their main force?" Catherine's face turned pale, and she held onto Falainen's hand vigorously. The current situation all showed that they had already fallen into the enemy's ambush circle. "What am I going to do now, Falainen."

Looking at Princess Catherine's big eyes with some panic, Fallainen turned his head and looked at the electronic crystal screen in front of him. It seems that it is necessary to give Her Royal Highness some advice here.He first looked at the princess: "Your Highness, I'm going to turn off the gravity sound shielding field, please maintain your posture, and please pay attention to your words. In a disadvantaged situation, the panic of the officer will lead to the collapse of the entire fleet."

"I think you're right, I'm sorry." After hearing Falainen's words, Princess Catherine bit her lower lip, let go of Falainen's hand, stood up straight again, and looked at the person on the electronic crystal screen. The big eyes are full of unwillingness.

"Don't be discouraged. The opponent is the commander of the squadron under Admiral Hoffman, Colonel Eugene, a well-known general in the empire. This is not something a school student can handle." Seeing the princess's expression, Falainen couldn't help but comfort her , and at the same time press the undo key of the gravity sound shielding field. "Attention the whole team, immediately report the number of the two local fleets."

"There are 53 ships in the W2000 airspace fleet, 4000 ships in the upper fleet, local flagships appear in the upper airspace, and 200 frigates."

"Get me through to the deputy commander."

Ten seconds later, the image of the deputy commander appeared on the electronic crystal screen. Falainen nodded, ignoring the joke in the guy's eyes: "You take 500 warships to meet the fleet in the W53 airspace, and pull them down as much as possible. move."

"Yes!" The deputy commander received the order with a salute.

"The whole team obeys the order, and the fleet is divided into three teams, forming an E shape and approaching the upper fleet at full speed!"

Catherine was a little surprised, she turned her head to look at Falainen, and after seeing Falainen looking at the electronic crystal screen seriously, she had to suppress her doubts.But Fallainen noticed her hesitation and turned to look at her: "I wonder why I attacked the main force above?"

"Yes, there are only [-] ships in the front fleet. Why don't we destroy this part of the fleet first instead of attacking the main force above?"

"Colonel Eugene is a master of ambush warfare. He will never let you eat the piece of meat in front of you so easily." Fallainen looked at the electronic crystal screen in front of him for a moment, and his words made several people cry at the same time. The soldiers operating the battleship laughed. This is just a game, and everyone is very relaxed.Someone even joked quietly below, "I heard that Colonel Eugene is also a master at courting women."

Fallainen smiled indifferently, and the faint smile flashed past, leaving only a trace.

The battle really went on as Falainen expected at the beginning. The deputy commander led 500 ships and successfully dragged down the opponent's 2000 warships. The fleet was unable to communicate between the hulls, and Falainen rushed to the position of the opponent's flagship at full speed with the main force of the fleet. 5000 warships versus 4000, the numerical advantage is great.After the deputy commander couldn't hold on, Fallainen fell out of the 1500 warships above the E-shaped formation in a timely manner, turned around and gave a heavy blow.

The battle ended quickly, and Colonel Eugene's helpless face appeared on the electronic crystal screen.

"Fallainen, you cheated. Didn't you say you didn't take part in the command?" Colonel Eugene looked helpless. If he knew, how could he be so careless.

"Colonel Eugene is one of the most powerful generals in the First Fleet, and Her Royal Highness also admires it." Fallainen saw Colonel Eugene's helpless expression, so he had to take out Her Royal Highness to answer.

"Your Excellency is the pillar of the empire. I admire you for the battle today." Catherine answered with an elegant smile on her face. The performance is really a bit clumsy.Thinking of this, she felt a little wronged, and her eyes were a little moist.After reopening the gravity sound shielding field, she said with a choked up voice, "Fallainen, am I stupid?"

"Stupid? How could that be?" Fallainen was awakened by the princess's choking, and raised his hand to gently pat the princess on the shoulder: "Basically, all the high-ranking officers in the empire are still nothing at your age. Children who understand, you have worked very hard, don't put too much pressure on yourself."

Seeing Her Royal Highness nod her head aggrievedly, Fallainen also sighed in his heart. He said it was easy, but in fact, it wasn't them who put so much pressure on her?As the hope of the future of the empire, she has no right to be weak. Thinking of this, Falainen put on a serious expression again: "I think you will have a strong opponent in this freshman competition. You must take it seriously."
