Galactic Tech Empire

Chapter 540 Funeral
Huang Haojie, who was in a meeting with the council, suddenly received a message from Zhong, and he quickly opened the holographic file:

[Master, the latest news: The attack fleet has completely wiped out the invading dark beast invasion fleet, the following is a detailed battle report...]
Huang Haojie scanned the content of the report at a glance. Since he was sad and relieved, he quickly adjusted his emotions and said, "It's good news."

"Good news?" Fang Dongliang and the others were at a loss.

"The counterattack has been won. The attacking fleet has wiped out the dark beast invasion fleet." After Huang Haojie told the news, he sent the report to everyone.

After everyone finished reading the report, they immediately relaxed some of their tension, but saw that three of their own warships were destroyed and 3 people were killed. This is the first time that such a large casualty has occurred since the establishment of the alliance.

Although everyone is a veteran who has been tempered for a long time, no one wants to see casualties. Sometimes wars are so cruel, and space wars are even more cruel. Even corpses will be annihilated.

"Let the high command do a good job in the aftermath, and you also come up with a plan to provide compensation to the relatives of the sacrificed soldiers." Huang Haojie ordered.

With a heavy heart, Fang Dongliang nodded and replied: "I will implement it as soon as possible."

……

Alliance News Channel.

The male host who was broadcasting was suddenly taken aback, but his good professionalism made him react quickly.

"The following is a war news. At 4:1 pm on January 22, Galaxy Year 14, our Alliance strike fleet faced the invader Dark Beast Civilization Fleet in the Polaris area. The dark destroying beast invaded the fleet."

The hostess on the side went on:
"Victory belongs to mankind, and victory belongs to the alliance. Let us pay tribute to the soldiers who fought bloody battles on the front line. The following is the list of martyrs who died in the self-defense counterattack: Anthony Chloe, the flagship of the Second Squadron of the Third Fleet of the Solar System, Aegis Patton, A.I. Sizhe,... Zhao Weiguo, Zhang Gu, Takeuchi Teruo, Zhan Mingjing, a total of 437 people."

"They have made immortal sacrifices for the alliance and the continuation of human civilization. Let us pay them the highest respect." The host said sadly.

The entire alliance, and even the other humans in Blue Star, immediately erupted when they heard the victory.

However, the following list of sacrifices made everyone involuntarily feel heavy. Many people have already shed tears, especially the families of the sacrificed soldiers, who are even more distraught.

Nan'ao District.

In a seaside villa.

ding dong...

"The door is unlocked, please come in." An aged voice sounded in the room.

The wooden door opened slowly, and a man and a woman walked in.

"Excuse me, are you Anthony Chloe's mother?" the female staff member asked with evasive eyes.

"Oh! Yes, I am little Anthony's mother, you can call me Lina, who are you?" Lina, who looked very young, had a pair of vicissitudes of eyes.

"Mrs. Chloe, I'm very sorry, this is a letter from Anthony." The male staff had to bite the bullet and handed a letter to Lina with both hands.

At this time, Lina had already begun to feel that the atmosphere was not right, she snatched the envelope with trembling hands, and took out the letter inside nervously.

[Dear mother, if you read this letter, then I may not be in this world anymore, please don't be sad for me.

... I vaguely remember when I was a child, I was roasting by the fireplace and eating the egg tarts made by you. Although it was just an ordinary egg tart, it was a memory that I will never forget in my life. How much I want to eat it again...

I hope that Barry can take good care of you instead of me, maybe the universe man’s destination is the stars and the sea... Anthony Chloe’s last words]

tick!Two crystal clear teardrops dripped silently on the letter. Lina covered her mouth and sobbed while shaking her head with tears in her eyes.

"Woooooo... my little Anthony..."

The female staff hurriedly stepped forward to hug Lina, and while stroking Lina's back with her hands, she comforted her softly: "Lina, we are all very sad, no one wants this kind of thing to happen,..."

Sending the last letter and urn to the relatives of the victim is definitely a hard job. It is okay to meet reasonable relatives, but it is really hard to tell relatives who are emotionally broken.

The ashes in these urns are the interstellar dust collected by the attacking fleet in the area where the battleship was destroyed.

at the same time.

Mars Territory - Mount Olympus, the highest peak in the solar system.

A platform was built on the top of the mountain, and a specially treated obsidian stele was erected on the platform, which was erected for the soldiers who died in another self-defense counterattack.

Huang Haojie and others wore black tunic suits and personally placed wreaths in front of the monument.

He turned around to face the live broadcast of the entire solar system, and said sadly:
"The war has been won and human civilization has been continued, but 437 soldiers have left us forever. They are children of mothers, husbands of wives, and fathers of children. It is the war that took away these fresh and lovely lives. It was they who defended human civilization with their lives..."

"None of us is eager for war, but the enemy forces us to take up arms. In the future, perhaps more soldiers will sacrifice for human civilization. Let us use the idea of ​​​​loving peace and life, and don't let soldiers exchange blood and life for time. Wasted, we need to be stronger, strong enough to defeat all invaders."

"Those who died for human civilization are immortal, let us inherit their legacy and use our lives to protect human civilization!"

Huang Haojie just finished speaking.

The scene was boiling, and roars erupted from all over the solar system.

"Fight for Humanity."

"I'm going to join the army."

"Damn dark orc."

"Long live the Alliance."

"Humanity must win..."

The council and Huang Junjie took advantage of this sacrifice to arouse the common hatred within the alliance, and established the dark beast civilization as a target.

Although the military control status in various parts of the solar system has been canceled one after another, a sense of urgency still hangs over the alliance.

At the same time, the research on dark beast civilization, especially the research on dark energy and dark matter, has been paid more attention by the alliance. This time, the alliance has suffered a big loss from dark energy.

In particular, the dark energy particle flow launched by asteroid matter is a terrible threat to the alliance. If the next dark beast civilization directly uses planet-level planets to launch an attack, it will be a fatal threat to the solar system.

And the dark beast civilization can block quantum communication, so it must have quantum communication, that is to say, the other party definitely knows about the annihilation of the invading fleet, and even exposed many things about the alliance.

Now the two civilizations are absolutely in a state of immortality. Huang Haojie and the council cannot be sure that the other party has no second fleet approaching the solar system. Just in case, the Third Army is still maintaining a yellow alert in the Polaris area.

In addition, a large number of warships and soldiers have been added to the Polaris area. Not only must the existing line of defense be consolidated, but the line of defense must also be extended to the area around 1 light-year away from the Oort Cloud to enhance the strategic depth of the alliance.

Wars in the interstellar era are often about destroying stars. Once the enemy enters the Oort cloud, the threat to the solar system will rise in a straight line.
