Chapter 59 [59]
【59】
On August 233, 8, Utopia Imperial Calendar, the Imperial Military Court publicly heard the treason case of Admiral Finan.As the chief political officer of the Supreme Court of the Empire, Qiao Sheng calmly read the verdict—murder of Saiga, corruption and dereliction of duty, fornication with star thieves, launching a military rebellion, employing human beings to do brutal and inhumane research. The crime determined that Fernan would spend the rest of his life as a prisoner on a remote planet in exile.
However, in this public trial, none of the four generals of the military department came to observe, and the attitudes of the major mainstream media when mentioning this matter in the live broadcast were also very subtle. No one would be stupid enough to openly question why Lingfenglou He didn't show his face, but the other three generals did this... Is it a metaphor for the attitude of the military department on certain things?
Three days ago, the Imperial Academy of Life Sciences presented a result of the collection and research of Ling Zhizhen's blood samples as a winner - but in fact, they did not gain much at all. Judging from the blood samples, Ling Zhizhen only It's just a person who is physically stronger than ordinary people, but he doesn't see any advantages in the army.What annoyed many scientists was that the clinical performance of this special substance was too unpredictable, and they couldn't figure out exactly how it was used and how much it was used to successfully transform Ling Zhizhen's physique.They also failed to "arm the empire with physique-modifying drugs for the benefit of the whole people" as they said.For a while, this "scientific research craze" that has been raging like crazy can't help but cool down—ordinary people may not know the details, but many media have changed their eyes on the Imperial Academy of Life Sciences.
Thinking about the detailed elaboration in *Research when Feinan's charges were pronounced, as well as the unusually low-key and silent Ling family during this period of time, some sensitive media people felt that they smelled something special, so when they spoke They were also more cautious than usual; however, just one minute after the trial ended, General Ling Fenglou, dressed in military uniform and with a serious face, broadcast a live broadcast on the military news channel of the Empire Star Network, and read out a letter signed by the four generals of the Empire. of the press release.
"As a soldier, from the moment you choose to step on the battlefield, you have to disregard life and death. Parents, partners, children, relatives and friends... are not as important as the belief in winning in your heart. Every soldier fights for his own beliefs. Fighting, maybe victory, maybe freedom, or just out of love for the country. Just like in this massive civil war, some people turned against their former comrades-in-arms and brothers because they couldn't bear the temptation, There are also some people who are only deceived by the illusion of things and go astray for a while. Their behavior can be considered emotionally, but the law will never forgive them.”
"Finan's treason may have caused some people to feel chills about the military, but please don't forget those soldiers who bravely fought against the enemy and devoted themselves to protecting the stability of the country and the safety of the people. A qualified soldier, before stepping on the battlefield, I am ready to sacrifice my life for the country. No one is not afraid of death, but the sacrifice on the battlefield is to protect the lives of more ordinary people. For the benefit of the citizens of the entire empire, as soldiers, we are willing to bear such sacrifices .”
"However, our sacrifice is not an unconditional sacrifice!"
"To a soldier, dying on the battlefield is a kind of honor; but dying on the operating table, in the laboratory, driven by the interests of the empire he desperately tried to maintain, is a kind of honor to the entire empire* A great insult to the team!"
"As a military student who has not yet graduated or even has a formal military rank, student Ling Zhizhen of the Imperial First Military Academy made his first contribution in this civil war! He and his companions sneaked into the Chaogexing military base. Your Majesty has obtained important information that led us to a decisive victory in the Civil War!"
"In order to cover his comrades, and to let the information reach the military headquarters in time, he did not hesitate to lure the enemy with his body, and was captured in the end—if he dies, he will become a young martyr, and it is not in vain to be lamented or respected by people I, Lingfenglou, as a father, taught him for more than twenty years."
"However, despite suffering extraordinary pain, he did not die."
"Citizens who have paid attention to the trial just now should know that that kind of inhumane * * research existed decades ago. For this research, various countries have invested countless human, financial and material resources. Living life... Its success rate is very small, and Ling Zhizhen is the only experimental subject known to have survived. Feinan originally planned to use this painful transformation operation to declare the end of his life, but, perhaps for The nostalgia in the world, perhaps the desire for survival, he survived and survived."
"Yes, he escaped from the sky, but what awaited him was an even more subversive disaster—this empire he swore to serve to the death, this empire he loved wholeheartedly, for the so-called scientific research, he had to use His patriotic zeal abducts him, crucifies him to a moral cross, sends him to a laboratory, deprives him of all personal rights and liberties. And some will do anything to achieve it. We are supreme The protection of the imperial law is actually useless."
"As a person, an independent and complete individual with thoughts and feelings, Ling Zhizhen certainly doesn't want to spend his life innocent and useless in this way—but those citizens he saved from the flames of war naturally demand He has to pay. They say that personal interests are insignificant in front of national interests. Such a response is simply chilling..."
In the light screen, the expressionless Ling Fenglou suddenly punched the quartz stone tabletop in front of him, creating several cracks on the excellent tabletop: "Admiral Ling Fenglou, Lieutenant General Jiang Now, Imperial Major General Fu Yunze and Imperial Major General Zepa hereby announce to all the soldiers of the 64 military bases on the 64 planets of the Utopian Empire—today’s Ling Zhizhen is a bloody past for millions of soldiers from all over the empire. ! Car! Zhi! Jian!”
"Is this country we swear our allegiance to to the death worth our dedication to?"
"These people we love so desperately, do they also treat us as equal lives!"
"Those clank oaths when enlisting in the army sound so ironic now! How ridiculous! Today is Ling Zhizhen alone, but in the future, each of us may become Ling Zhizhen!"
"In this era when using animals for *research will be condemned, but there is such a group of people who choose to ignore and disregard a person's life!"
Ling Fenglou looked at the camera coldly, without concealing his resentment and murderous intent: "What right do you have to ask innocent people to sacrifice their lives for you? Why should my soldiers——do not know what to do for these things? Do fools who respect them die in vain?"
"Take a step back, Ling Zhizhen is not a military student, let alone my son, but an ordinary civilian—then, ordinary people are insignificant, and they have to give everything for the benefit of the country in vain? !"
"Mr. Ling joined the army at the age of 22. So far, 35 years have passed. He has experienced more than 140 battles, big and small. He has won countless military exploits and victories, and has protected countless lives in the empire. Now even myself I can't even protect my son!"
Lingfenglou took out a document, turned it over and displayed it in front of the camera—it was a letter of appointment proposed by the Prime Minister and signed by His Majesty the Emperor. The camera clearly captured the most important "" Marshal of the Empire" four words.However, Ling Fenglou paused every word: "I declare that I, Ling Fenglou, refuse to assume the position of Marshal of the Empire!"
Amid the uproar, Ling Fenglou stood up and left his seat indifferently, his thin and straight back looked like a sharp sword about to be unsheathed.
Before people could recover from these shocking remarks, another sudden news disrupted the peaceful life of Utopians who had not been peaceful for a long time—the Wumeng Empire, which had just completed regime change among its neighbors, began to be restless.The new Emperor Wumeng is an out-and-out fanatical militant. This time he led the army to launch a military provocation at the border between the two countries, intending to catch him by surprise when the civil war in Utopia was suddenly flattened and the domestic situation was not stable, and to occupy the important place of Utopia Empire. Energy planet shake light star.The Second Army Corps, which was patrolling the neighboring star field, quickly rushed to the battle, and the Fourth Army Corps then responded to the battle. Now the two armies are in a stalemate. However...according to reliable sources, important high-level military officials were injured in this operation. seriously injured.
Who is this guy?Is it Fu Yunze? ——This speculation was denied after only a few hours, because Major General Fu personally stood up and negotiated with Emperor Wumeng, who was dressed up and went out in person, and said a word to express the attitude of the military department: If you want to fight, then fight !
What important person was injured?Under the current domestic situation, how should the military's challenge be explained?Will the morale of the whole army be as good as before?The wind direction of the major media has changed. However, except for Colonel Tang, the former military chief of Seablue Star, who was unexpectedly promoted to the regiment commander of the reorganized Fifth Corps, no more serious information has been found.
However, at this time, the Sixth Army, which was usually the most active and friendly to the people, seemed abnormally quiet.Not for anything else, just because the one who was injured was none other than their unreliable army leader—the heroic hero who saved the beauty, ah no, it was the beauty who saved the hero and successfully took a key step in the long journey of chasing his wife Zeppa.
