1258. The darkest moment (Part 1)

Last day.

In 178 Fortress.

All the residents stood by the radio, wanting to hear the current situation of the war.

There was no radio at home, so the whole family went to the neighbor's house together, and everyone waited with bated breath for a piece of news that would be broadcast from time to time.

The male announcer's voice is nice, but the news on the radio always brings bad news.

Every unit of the Northwest Army was killed in action. Sometimes everyone would fall into infinite silence while listening. Sometimes they heard some news saying that a unit had been killed collectively. Next to the radio There was an earth-shattering wail.

Because their family members may be among the fallen troops.

The streets of 178 Fortress are silent.

After an autumn rain, the weather gradually became a little colder, and everyone couldn't help but shrink their necks when walking on the road.

Qing Zhen glanced at his watch at his residence. There were only 12 hours left before the countdown.

He put on his white suit, and then said to Luo Lan, Zhou Qi, and Xu Hao: "Let's go, it's our turn to do something, don't let down the hopes of the Northwest Army."

After the four people got into the car, the vehicle drove straight to a quarry west of the fortress.

I don’t know when this quarry has been under martial law, and the surrounding area is surrounded by soldiers wearing quarry work uniforms, quietly vigilant.

Xu Xianchu was waiting outside the quarry door. After he received Qing Zhen, he turned around and led everyone inside without saying a word.

In the factory, a woman in a red dress had been waiting there for a long time. She was the person who negotiated with Zhang Jinglin on behalf of Qing Zhen, and she was also the executor of the entire plan.

At this time, the quarry factory did not have the machinery and equipment used to blast mountains and quarry. Although it looked simple from the outside, it was extremely technological inside.

You need to put on white dust-free clothes to enter the factory, and inside are a large number of precision instruments and 1,374 busy scientific researchers.

Qing Zhen, wearing dustproof clothing, asked the woman in the red skirt beside her: "Is everything ready?"

The woman in the red skirt nodded: "Everything is ready."

Xu Xianchu asked Qing Zhen: "You said there might be a missile attack here, so I came to protect this place, but there was no missile attack in sight."

Qing Zhen shook his head and said with some confusion: "Calculate If the Wang missile force is within range, this place should be within range, and the artificial intelligence should be able to analyze that there is something abnormal here. There is no reason not to bomb here. I am not sure what happened specifically, but someone must have made an effort to help. Luo Lan thought for a while and said, "Can our plan really work?"

"Whether it works or not depends on whether Ren Xiaosu can support it." After these 12 hours," Qing Zhen said:"If he can't hold on, then all the previous efforts will be in vain."

"Do you think he can hold on until then?" Zhou Qi asked.

Luo Lan shook her head: "I'm not sure, but he has never let me down."

For this day, Southwest also paid a huge price.

Some people died fighting on the Sanshan Defense Line, such as Qingyi.

Some people died to deliver messages, such as Tang Zhou.

But there are too many unknown pawns who died for the same goal and the same hope.

They once accompanied Qing Zhen to the Ginkgo Mountain. They saw the ginkgo trees on the mountainside covered with dye. They died for the glory of the Qing family.

Beyond the war, there are 1,374 scientific researchers of the Qing family working in an absolutely confidential state. No one knows what they are working on, not even their families.

Qing Zhen felt that if the plan failed, no one would really know the efforts these people had put in.

So they cannot fail.

......

On the evacuation path.

"The artificial intelligence southwest team did not stop us," P5092 was a little confused. According to his calculation, in fact, at this time, they should have almost encountered the enemy blocking the way.

However, at this moment, it was still empty in front of them, not even a single figure.

Someone must have stopped the enemy troops in the south, but P5092 couldn't figure out who had the ability to block the nearly ten million army of artificial intelligence?

At this time, Ren Xiaosu suddenly came to his senses: "If someone really blocks Zero's two southwestern teams, then after excluding all possible help, the only one left is Li Shen. Altar."

What Ren Xiaosu did was elimination, because it was possible that people from the northwest would appear and help at this time, and only Li Shentan was left.

When all possibilities are eliminated, the only option left is the truth.

Hu Hua said before that Li Shentan had done what he promised Ren Xiaosu.

What did Li Shentan promise? Li Shentan promised Ren Xiaosu that he would use the devil's salvation in exchange for Chen Wudi's return.

So, Ren Xiaosu suddenly realized that his apprentice Chen Wudi might have returned!

When he thought of this, he felt a little excited in his heart, but in an instant, Ren Xiaosu felt depressed again, because he knew very well what the devil's redemption meant.

When Hu Huan talked about Li Shentan before, he looked a little lonely. Thinking about it, Hu Huan knew the answer very well.

"Another friend has left," Ren Xiaosu said suddenly.

At this time, a soldier suddenly shouted from the front: "We have arrived at Fortress 178!"

Ren Xiaosu turned around and looked forward, and was shocked to see the shadow of the towering fortress in the distance, likeSo familiar, yet so kind.

The broad city wall is like the solid back of a giant, making people feel safe when looking at it from a distance.

Although everyone knows that we have only seen the fortress now, if we continue to retreat, it will take at least six hours to reach it.

Because Fortress 178 is so majestic and tall, when its outline appears in the field of vision, there is still a long way to go between them.

No matter what, seeing Fortress 178 means seeing hope.

But before the soldiers had time to be happy, news suddenly came from the rear troops that the enemy's mechanized troops had appeared on the horizon, and the enemy's infantry land troops were probably coming soon. Come up.

When this news was delivered, Ren Xiaosu looked around and suddenly found that many people had a look of despair in their eyes.

Obviously, it only needs to be delayed for nine days, but it seems that it will fail on the last day.

Everyone knows that it is impossible for them to block the enemy in this plain terrain, because the number of the opponent is too many.

With only one day, or only half a day, they might be able to win the final victory.

Although no one knows what kind of plan Qing Zhen and Commander Zhang have, since Commander Zhang has said that he believes in Qing Zhen, it means that this plan is feasible.

However, it seems that no one can wait for that moment.

Ren Xiaosu stood silently among the crowd, watching the hope in everyone's hearts gradually disappearing, and suddenly wanted to do something.

This war was too brutal.

On the Sanshan Defense Line, the entire Qing army was killed, but before they died, the Qing soldiers were thinking about how to draw back a few more enemies. They won the most critical victory for the Northwest Dawn Defense Line. data and time.

The soldiers of the Sixth Field Division guerrillaed behind the enemy just to buy another two days for the Dawn Defense Line.

The soldiers of the first echelon and the second echelon of the Dawn Defense Line died one after another. Even when they were injured, they were unwilling to retreat with the first group army.

Everyone is just looking for a glimmer of hope for final victory, but this hope is about to disappear.

He had to do something.

He must do something.

He wants to defend this hard-won hope.

P5092 said: "Wang Yun, help me convey the order. The entire First Army must stop advancing and find bunkers on the spot to prepare for battle! Commander Zhang, Ren Xiaosu, you continue to advance with the wounded, and I will stay and lead them. Fight a blocking battle!"

"You will die if you stay and fight a blocking battle," Wang Yun said seriously.

P5092 smiled: "So what?"

"No need," Yan Liuyuan, who was sitting on the back of the Wolf King, jumped down and said with a smile: "You continue to retreat. , leftLeave it to me. "

Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect Yan Liuyuan to say this suddenly.

Yan Liuyuan said with a smile: "Why, don't you believe me? Me too. A demi-god-level transcendent. "

Sister Xiaoyu on the side grabbed Yan Liuyuan's arm nervously: "Liuyuan, you can't use your ability anymore, you really can't use it anymore, or you will die. "

Yan Liuyuan looked at Sister Xiaoyu silently and sighed. The thing he couldn't let go of the most was Sister Xiaoyu. In his heart, Li Xiaoyu had long been his biological sister.

At this moment, the wolf king suddenly looked up to the sky and howled.

The next moment, the wolf king turned and faced the enemy, while the wolves slowly followed behind him. p>

Yan Liuyuan shouted twice, but the wolf king never looked back.

I saw the silver wolves running faster and faster, their hair moving in the wind. It looked extremely bright.

P5092 said calmly: "Continue to evacuate, don't stay! ”

Suddenly, Ren Xiaosu summoned a steam train and drove to Fortress 178 at full speed.

The soldiers in the first group were stunned. What is going on? Why did Shuai leave alone when he heard there was an enemy behind him?

I saw the steam train roaring away in the wilderness.

Wang Fengyuan looked at Zhang Jinglin in surprise: "Commander, this..."

Zhang Jinglin shook his head. Shaking his head: "I don't know what he wants to do. ”

On the way to continue the retreat, there was a lot of discussion within the First Army, and everyone was speculating why the young marshal left alone.

Some people speculated that the young marshal had other plans, but the 178 Fortress There are no reinforcements on the side. What can the young marshal do even if he gets to Fortress 178?

The steam train is getting closer and closer to Fortress 178 at full speed. The soldiers guarding the walls of Fortress 178 look at it. When they got to the train, they quickly shouted: "It's young marshal, open the city gate quickly!" ”

The gate slowly opened, but Ren Xiaosu’s steam train did not stop. It passed directly through the city gate and headed to Tongzhong Square.

It happened to be 3 o’clock in the afternoon. On the same day, the bronze bell on the Tongzhong Square was rung three times, and the sound of the bell was melodious and vicissitudes of life.

The residents of 178 Fortress took the initiative to move out of the street when they saw the steam train. They saw the young marshal. Sitting alone on the front of the car, with a stern expression and saying nothing.

"It's the young commander, why did he suddenly come back?" "

"The direction of this steam train is Tongzhong Square. What is the young marshal doing at Tongzhong Square? ”

Unexpectedly, the steam train came to an abrupt stop in front of Tongzhong Square. More and more residents who did not know the truth were chasing after them out of curiosity. More and more people gathered outside Tongzhong Square. In the spotlight, Ren Xiaosu jumped off the steam train and came with a meteoric stride.Before arriving at the bronze bell.

Ren Xiaosu looked at the bronze bell and said: "You asked me how old I am before, and I said more than two hundred years old. Actually, I am not joking. You may not believe it, but I am really over two hundred years old this year. "

"I am Experiment 001. I fell asleep due to cancer and genetic mutation more than two hundred years ago. My father is Ren He, the founder of the Knights. Therefore, I am older than all of you. Bigger."

"I have seen the most glorious era of human civilization, when almost everyone had food, and people on the land of Kyushu lived and worked in peace and contentment, enjoying a new era."

"In today's era, many people can't even have a full meal. TVs don't have LCDs, and big TVs don't have LCDs." The entertainment life of some people is just holding a radio and listening to the radio. In my opinion, the life of the so-called rich is not worth mentioning, and no one has ever traveled further. At that time, from one end of the world to the other, It only lasts for more than ten hours.”

“I once said not to let the sorrow of the times become your sorrow, that’s because I think this era is completely corrupt.”

“I don’t have any big ambitions. I always felt that it would be nice to have a small family. I don’t want to be a young marshal of the Northwest Army, and I don’t want to be the commander of the Northwest Army in the future. I always feel that it’s just me. This kind of person is not the material to be a commander."

"But if someone wants to take away this last glimmer of hope, then I want to ask...the twenty or so people under this bronze bell. Forerunners of all mankind, would you like to become a heroic spirit and fight back with me?"

"Although it is unfair for you to become a heroic spirit, after all, you have paid so much for the northwest, and now you have to become someone else's ability. Vassal. Moreover, once you become a heroic spirit, you have the possibility of dying again. At that time, you will be in eternal silence, and you will not even be able to read the newspaper."

According to Luo Lan, heroic spirits are not immortal. , once you suffer damage that exceeds the endurance limit, it will still dissipate.

This is also the reason why Ren Xiaosu and Luo Lan have always shown restraint in this ability.

However, Ren Xiaosu continued: "But, I really want artificial intelligence to see what human pride is."

Ren Xiaosu stood alone on Tongzhong Square and waited silently Standing, waiting for the response of 270,000.

At this time, the residents outside Tongzhong Square also looked at Ren Xiaosu in astonishment.

They didn’t know what happened. They only knew that after entering Fortress 178, the young marshal suddenly ran to Tongzhong Square and said a lot of words inexplicably.

They were so far away that they didn’t even know what Ren Xiaosu said.

178 wantsThe residents of Sai didn't know what Ren Xiaosu was doing.

However, at the next moment, a voice suddenly sounded in the center of Tongzhong Square: "We are willing to go."

"It is our duty to do so."

"We have been waiting for this moment for a long time."

This is no longer a voice that only Ren Xiaosu can hear, but can be heard by everyone.

A golden figure walked out from the center. It was Commander Li, the most prestigious among the 270,000 heroic spirits.

Then the second, the third, the thousandth, the ten thousand, the hundred thousand...

Ren Xiaosu originally thought that being able to summon ten thousand heroic spirits would be his limit. However, he himself did not expect that his limit was unlimited.

More and more golden heroes walked out of Tongzhong Square, like a golden sea.

Gradually, Tongzhong Square could not accommodate any more, and the huge number of heroic spirits pushed the residents to the next street.

The residents had no idea what was happening or where these golden figures came from.

At this time, a young-faced heroic spirit suddenly said to a woman in her thirties: "Nanny..."

The woman looked blankly at the young soldier in front of her. The other party looked particularly handsome in the standard uniform of the Northwest Army. She had seen this heroic father in photos more than once.

Seventeen years ago, when she was going to school, her father gave her a candy and then told her that she was going on a long trip.

As a result, the other party left for 17 years and never came back.

When she was young, she hated him, but she no longer hated him when she grew up, because her lover was also a northwest soldier.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar faces in front of her, the woman burst into tears. She finally knew what was happening at this moment.

On the other side, a middle-aged man in his forties looked at a young heroic spirit in front of him and asked with some confusion: "Fang Yuan?"

That's called Fang Yuan. The heroic spirit suddenly turned to look at him, and after identifying him for half a minute, he asked hesitantly: "Lin Ke?"

Lin Ke, who was in his forties, suddenly burst into tears: "You are alive, I I have been dreaming every day for the past seventeen years, dreaming that I was not transferred from the post on the day the war started, and dreaming that I would die fighting with you!"

Fang Yuan grinned: "Then you are special! It’s so miserable.”

Gradually, everyone understood.

The young marshal in the center of Tongzhong Square is resurrecting all the past martyrs of the Northwest Army!

"The pioneer heroes of the Northwest Army have all been resurrected."

"Martyrs, follow the young marshal to save Fortress 178!"

Tongzhong Square Huge cheers erupted outside, and almost everyone in the cheers had only one expression, with tears filling their eyes with extreme excitement.

Those martyrs who shed their blood for the Northwest are allCome alive.

Ren Xiaosu felt as if the blood in his body was burning again and starting to boil.

He turned and walked towards the outside of Fortress 178, and all the golden heroes followed him.

A heroic spirit shouted loudly to the residents from behind: "Do you know Liu Xu from Wei Zilu? Tell him that he has come back to life and is about to go into battle to kill the enemy."

There are also heroic spirits muttering: "I thought this kid was easy to handle, but he turned out to be an old monster over two hundred years old. This is like recognizing an ancestor!"

"Then we are now heroic spirits. , when the battle is over, can we beat him? This guy has disgusted us before..."

"Yes, don't forget this!"

Ren Xiaosu didn't listen to what the heroic spirit behind him said. His pace became faster and faster until he was running.

The golden torrent followed behind him, all the way to the outside of the city, facing the direction of the enemy, and launched a charge from a distance.

This is the first time Ren Xiaosu has used the ability of the Temple of Valor, and the first time he has his own heroic spirit. Although Luo Lan's heroic spirit has increased in physical fitness, in fact the increase is very limited, only the original About 1.5 times. After all, Luo Lan's own strength is indeed not that good.

But Ren Xiaosu is different. He is much more powerful than Luo Lan.

The heroic spirits felt their new bodies. They only felt that their whole bodies were full of power. This was a powerful experience they had never had before. Almost everyone's power increased threefold.

This is a T3 unit numbering 270,000, and they are all the most courageous and skilled fighters in the history of the Northwest Army.

Ren Xiaosu ran wildly at the front of the golden torrent. Looking down from the sky, the golden torrent behind him was so majestic and majestic.

Murderous.
