Chapter 186: A Conversation That Lasts a Life
In the face of possible major events, in the face of the overall meaning of the people from the political outlook to the people, and in the face of the historical trend that goes against the tide, a family head who lags behind the requirements of the times can say so calmly and provocatively, "I am looking forward to it, these four words are extremely violent."
Xu Le has seen many characters who act arrogantly and have a free and easy temperament, such as Lin Banshan, who broke out of the house and treated the family heirloom as if he was a broken shoe, such as the lady who hid in the curtain and played the federal situation, such as the uncle who was not famous but dared to fight to the death with the glory of the charter, but after hearing these four words, he was still shocked Er Xilin Tiger spoke in a very flat tone, not arrogant, but indifferent, but with undoubted confidence in his bones, where does this arrogance come from?
Absolute power leads to absolute authority, Xu Le thought of this sentence, and was a little indignant at the bearing of the middle-aged man in front of him, but he didn't think that what he revealed would really be the history that was about to happen. According to the rational logic of his engineer's thinking, he does not think that the Federation will take action against the Zhong family again, because this does not conform to the current general situation, the war between the Second Union and the Empire is burning like wildfire, and it will probably invade the starry sky of the Empire next yearγ
He was very frank in his judgment. After a pause, Zhong Shouhu, who was drinking and eating, replied with a smile, "Our family is always different from the other six. β
Is it because the Zhong family has always held military power in their hands? Xu Le fell into some kind of thinking that he was not good at.
"I've always had a good print run on His Excellency, and although I worked at the Joint Chiefs of Staff, I could never have done it at the remote Joint Chiefs of Staff, with adoration and mistress looking at her mistress like those shameless government officials. β
Zhong Shouhu's face still did not have any faith, and said, "The federal government is not the embodiment of the collective will of the people, nor is it the embodiment of the will of an excellent politician produced by a small chance, but the embodiment of the collective will of a large group of people with vested interests in the polity, these bureaucrats and businessmen who control the media, control finance, are good at ** elections, provoke public opinion, and insert them in the federation like dead people's bones in the field, which is the mainstream of the federation." β
"No matter how clear and calm President Pabul is, he is only one person, and he can influence people on one side or young students in Linhai State at most, but he has no power to change the historical direction of the Federation. I can even be sure that once he tries to change these things, he will step down. β
Zhong Shouhu looked at Xu Le with a light ironic expression, looking at the young students in Linhai Prefecture who were full of a sense of justice but couldn't find a specific way.
Xu Le thought of the role played by Mo Chou Houshan, the role played by Shi Qinghai and himself in the general election of Gongyi, and the dark transactions and disputes behind the scenes of the election campaign, he couldn't help but sink in, so he recognized Commander Zhong's opinion, and suddenly felt a little worried about Mr. President, who was far away in the star circle of the capital, because he knew that Mr. President, who had a dark face, was not a politician who was willing to go with the flow.
That's all for those things. Zhong Shouhu rubbed the wine glass lightly with three fingers, and said directly, "Next, we can talk about the increase in the voice of the military in the federal political structure with the emergence of the Empire, and the necessity of scattered organization. β
Xu Le was already very accustomed to the rhythm of conversation between big figures like Commander Zhong, and used to them being completely rude and very directly abort a topic and start a new one, but when he heard this series of propositions with a strong academic atmosphere, his face naturally flashed with a look of astonishment and depression.
Zhong Shouhu looked at him with a sneer, drank his cup, and said in a slightly sandy voice, "It's a joke." β
"Oh. Xu Le shrugged his shoulders and replied quickly, "Maybe the central computer can hear it." β
"You're a cold joke. Zhong Shouhu raised his eyebrows and said.
Two soldiers with a big difference in status and age experience, accompanied by red soup and tender meat and spirits, made night talks, jokes were cold or not, the topic continued, and the best thing was that both sides of the conversation seemed to be somewhat comfortable with the atmosphere of the conversation.
Commander Zhong was a child of a family, a top student of the First Military Academy of the Federation, and led a million-strong army to resist the empire in the west of the Federation for more than ten years as an adult.
Xu Le is an orphan of Donglin miners, the national education has only completed six and a half years, the ideal of life is to deal with, but life is also wonderful, and the reprocessing uncle has forced him to study in the university library for several years, and he is also a scholar on vacation. The most important thing is that his temperament is destined for him to be an excellent listener, such as Bang Yu, such as Shi Qinghai, such as Jian Shui'er, J has already proved it.
The topic left the heavy politics and intrigue, and came to the folklore of various federal regions, people and attractions, literary history, Schiller's plays, and George Carlin's quirks, and suddenly seemed a lot more relaxed, Xu Le listened to the middle-aged man on the other side of the table with a hint of domineering comments and accusations, and interjected from time to time, really like two readers holding red wine, telling about what difficult books they had read recently.
The night was getting deeper, the red soup pot was not dry, the fireworks outside the window had long since stopped, and only the cool wind kept passing through the poor and no longer existent glass, blowing into the faces and arms of the two men.
In the end, the topic naturally leads to the most important thing in the entire universe at the moment, and that is this war. The voices of the two men did not become agitated by the alcohol and the life and death on the front line, and calmly and seriously discussed the battle on the three fallen stars.
Someone told about how he commanded more than 90 divisions to surround the Strongblade Planet in what formation, someone told about himself and his squad across a small river beach, someone told about the long-planned strategic intention of the Federation and analyzed how the Emperor would respond, and someone told about training recruits in the barracks, not knowing if it would annoy their old father.
Like the morning sun in the morning dew, like the emperor and the farmer, Zhong Shouhu and Xu Le's status are too different, and the level of the topics they talk about is too different, but the wonderful thing is that because of a very pleasing emotion, Xu Le is not willing to be a listener, but seriously tells his own opinions.
Xu Le was extremely excited to be able to discuss the macro or details of this war with Commander Zhong, and it was a very rare opportunity to be able to look at many things in the past year from another angle or height, and to be able to hear the powerful commander-in-chief of the Federation talk about the command intentions above the stars in the tone of a commander.
Zhong Shouhu, the legendary military broad, kills people without blinking, and ignores the laws of the Federation, the Xilintu Emperor, turned out to be not as cold and terrible as the people of the Federation imagined, but a little like a young scholar who is thin enough to live in a university dormitory and is angry because of his discouragement, and has no girlfriend associate professor (Note)
Xu Le stared at his somewhat drunken eyes, clenched the wave glass, and tried his best to catch every word he heard in his ears, and he had such a clear idea in his heart, knowing that this would be a conversation that he would remember for the rest of his life.
Maybe it was because he drank too much wine, and Xu Le mentioned the great exploits of the Iron Seventh Division in Qyo Planet Workers with some inappropriateness.
It was precisely because of the fire that he drank so much that the cold and arrogant Commander Zhong didn't care about the obvious sore spot of the kid opposite, and said indifferently, "Du Shaoqing is a relatively smart pig. β
Xu Le lowered his head, endured a wry smile, and hurriedly drank a standard.
"The Imperials can't break through those two torsion holes in a day, and if they want to attack the Federation itself, they will have to drift in the universe for six or seven years before they can float to Xilin. The Union army is more advanced than those imperial cubs from head to toe, and how can they not win the war?"
"The Imperial Expeditionary Force is just a bunch of tired old dog-like junks who have come from afar, with a few broken guns from six or seven years ago in their hands. No matter who is on the front line, if you can't win the other party, you are a stupid pig. β
Commander Zhong looked at Xu Le and said, "Even if you go to command the Iron Seventh Division, you can still win." β
Xu Le raised his head, subconsciously touched his nose, and didn't notice the ugly tendency of the double holes, so he couldn't help but exhale lightly.
He didn't have any reason to like Du Shaoqing and the Iron Seventh Division, but thinking of the fierce battle situation he saw on the front line, thinking of the heroic achievements of the Iron Seventh Division, and feeling that Commander Zhong's evaluation was inevitably unfair, after a moment of silence, he said, "The Iron Seventh Division has advanced the fastest in Q slack, and in fact, the Imperial Expeditionary Force has been in Xilin for decades, and there are not many people who can defeat them so quickly. β
If it is said that the transfer of the Iron Seventh Division to the front line is the most disgusting headache for Commander Zhong, then the fact mentioned by Xu Le is the heaviest part of the hearts of all the officers and soldiers and the people in the entire Xilin Region, and the second Zhong Slender Tiger did not get angry, and said calmly, "The people in the capital star circle have always complained about my Xilin, thinking that in the past ten years, we have not driven the imperial expeditionary force out of Xilin, and it is the dereliction of duty of the Xilin Military Region on the battlefield.
Xu Le was seriously looking forward to the other party's answer.
"We really didn't do everything in our power to liberate those three fallen galaxies. β
Zhong Shouhu's face was filled with a trace of complicated emotions, and there was a little deep coldness in the mockery, "Xilin, from me to the most ordinary homeless man on the street corner, is not willing to sacrifice too much for the slogan shouted by the Federation, or to be precise, for the capital star circle workers, this is not because we want to hide any real strength, but because from the moment the Imperial invaded, it has always been us who sacrificed. β
"The Imperial people are coming, and it's us Xilin men who are fighting. "The people of the Lord's country have been crippled, but the Federation is unwilling to support us in the final victory. β
"Because there's an old guy who thinks the Federation needs to keep those Imperial Cubs in order to train his troops. Therefore, the Federation resolutely and indifferently implemented the strategy of the Xilin Wheel War for more than ten years. β
Zhong Shouhu looked at him, his eyes were quiet with wind and thunder, and he said, "In our Xilin people's land labor wheel war?
Hearing the old guy's three words, Xu Le was shocked and sank, not knowing how to speak.
(Note, the word "forced to reverse" suddenly reminded me of an interesting story, last year when I was playing with friends in the field, I said the word "forced anti", and the friend was stunned for a long time and then scolded me, saying that he despised me as a literary middle-aged, uh.)
Yes, although my level is limited, I do still have the middle-aged part of literature in my bones.
Recently, many friends have been thinking that these two chapters have been dull, but I am still writing with pain and pain, and it is very difficult to write and not turn, because of this.
War, jealousy, bloodshed, secrets, transformation, Qifeng, in fact, these plots are relatively easy to write a lot, I myself am willing to write such a sharp plot, if it is needed, but like this premeditated restaurant talk for half a year, if I don't write, I think it's my professional attitude is a problem Second, with this professional attitude that may be annoyed by many people, I sincerely ask you to vote for the monthly ticket and the recommendation vote, the recommendation vote is the recommendation vote, I like it very much, welcome your Jiali appreciation, the fragile middle-aged man Heshi hopes not to criticize, thank you for stepping downγ οΌ
