Legend of Infinite Mecha - Chapter 353
Overall, this seems to be a beautiful battle.
After Liu Ling and Xuefeng got off the Thunder Angel together, they saw the base rushing to and fro, refurbishing the fuselage and equipment in the battle, and counting the battle losses and casualties.
From a commander’s level, the cost of this battle is not that amazing.
The enemy is a scout squad, with two EWAC/reconnaissance mobile suits and two artillery support mobile suits. Although it is not a special forces squad or an ace squad, it is also an elite force.
In contrast, the base’s losses included the loss of only two armed helicopters, except for five wounded ground infantry troops.
Two armed helicopters. And the corresponding ammunition, and a total of four drivers. In the face of such an enemy, such a loss can be regarded as the lowest battle loss in a sense.
Therefore, from this perspective. Liu Ling is indeed in a good mood.
But he did have a grudge in his heart.
“Even if the injury is aside, there are still people…” Not long after being excited, Liu Ling calmed down again.
“This is the battlefield, casualties are always inevitable.” Xuefeng comforted.
“I know.” Liu Ling shook his head, “But after so many battles, I found that I am still not the kind that can accept these things because of understanding.”
Liu Ling has already made some achievements on the evolution of psychopathology, but it also means something.
Sensing the enemy’s location and hostility. Even at the same time of general emotion and thinking, it also means that every life in the battlefield disappears, they will feel it.
Although not as sensitive as Camus, the discomfort of life passing away—especially for the sacrifice of friendly forces who have given him full trust. This subtle and profound feeling is definitely not what ordinary people would want to experience for the second time. .
This is also one of the reasons why the people sitting on the Phoenix seat are unwilling to allow the world they have experienced to war again, and make people sacrifice in this whirlpool of interest, hatred and blood. Some people have personally harmed it; some people have witnessed the death of their lives, as if they were haunted by maliciousness, and have been unable to feel at ease for a long time; some people know the ending of the tragedy and what people really should pursue, so they made up their minds… …
Although he was just a young man in his teens and twenties from the beginning, this does not mean that he really didn’t understand anything under his silly and happy appearance.
When he passed the bar between the entertainment room and the cafeteria, Liu Ling stopped.
Bars are not where he often goes-or he has never been. His only experience of drinking as a minor before crossing was the one he drank during the Chinese New Year when his relatives said there was no other way…It was like rice wine?
In the end, his relatives said that he had a good drinker anyway.
Heh heh, minors can’t drink alcohol! Don’t be like this dogman, who can’t hold the family’s mouth and drank alcohol.
Having said that, the reason he stopped now was because he saw an acquaintance.
Major Lorney Tucks.
He is there, sitting alone, holding a wine glass in his hand.
“…” Liu Ling paused. Turned around and took a step forward.
“Xiaoxue, you go back first.”
Xuefeng nodded obediently, and then parted ways with Liu Ling.
And Liu Ling silently walked into this place he had never entered.
The dim yellow light covered a corner of this not bright room with a warmer color than the sun. And this middle-aged man, wearing sunglasses, gently shook the wine glass in his hand.
The ice cubes are made into a spherical shape and gently hit the four walls of the wine glass with a crisp sound.
“Unexpectedly, it was your kid.” When he noticed that Liu Ling was sitting next to him, he opened his mouth.
“A drink?”
Liu Ling shrugged. Means at will.
“Then give the special captain a glass.” The major stretched the glass forward and said to the bartender.
“Thank you, trouble you.” Liu Ling thanked the major and the bartender respectively.
This kind of drink is actually something called “flavored water”. It is a beverage obtained by re-fermenting and post-processing using the vinasse of various wines, and finally adding flavanols. Using this method of production not only means that these flavored waters can produce the same taste as various wines, but also contain no alcohol. Using flavanols as a fresh-keeping agent, while maintaining the state of flavored water, it also has the effects of alleviating oxidation, protecting the heart and antibacterial.
There are many veterans who choose them to replace wine when they occasionally need wine. You will not be paralyzed by alcohol, and you can use this drink to relieve your mood.
“I have two brothers. They were sacrificed in this battle.”
After Liu Ling accepted the drink, Lonnie spoke slowly.
Liu Ling did not speak, but took a sip in silence.
“They were with me, starting from the grassroots units, and started fighting a little bit. Although they were in the Army Aviation, our relationship has not been bad.”
Liu Ling nodded lightly, without turning around.
He is listening carefully.
Many times, there is someone who can listen quietly to share the burden. It will make my heart feel much better.
“–Ha, it would be better to say, it is precisely because I started the body and engaged in land warfare, and they were Army Aviation, our relationship would be so good.”
There is one saying, it is indeed the case. The Army Aviation is a frontier main combat unit of the Army with various aircraft as its main equipment. It has powerful firepower, surpassing assault capabilities, and precision strike capabilities. This means that there is often a need for cooperation and interaction between army aviation pilots and ground combatants. Help each other.
Because of this, the land forces, especially infantry and tank crews. There is often a very close relationship with the Army Aviation Soldiers.
“The two guys seem to come from an aerospace university. The two guys were together the first time they met each other.” Ronnie said this, and couldn’t help but chuckle. “At that time, I even mocked them, saying that they were the pilot brothers.”
“Later.” Liu Ling asked in an interesting tone.
“Later? Then we started fighting.” Ronnie shook the glass in his hand, making the hockey puck constantly make noises, “Chariot soldiers are trained with infantry. Not to mention I drive a combat tank. Even if it is. One dozen two, I didn’t let them take advantage.”
“Oh,” Liu Ling really didn’t think about it, this uncle was so energetic back then.
“But I didn’t know each other without fighting. After a fight, and then a few fights together, the relationship got better.” He said and drank a drink. “It’s just that I didn’t mock them much later. Their mouths are sharp.”
It’s the kind that the more noisy the relationship is, the better. Liu Ling thought in his heart.
Those who didn’t really start from the new barracks, step by step to become a veteran, and those who have participated in the war in person, can’t fully appreciate the depth and strength of this bond no matter how much you think about it.
Maybe new humans at a higher stage can understand it, but now Liu Ling, who thinks he is facing such a friendship, can only sigh.
This is the fetter of being born to death, daring to entrust his life to it. Although the form is different. But it is definitely one of the strongest relationships.
“But this time, both of them are gone.” He drank everything in his glass and sighed.
“13941, 13967…two drivers, just one shot.”
At this moment, Liu Ling was speechless.
He has never been a person who is good at expressing himself and comforting others. He even said that he was not so proficient in observing words and colors.
For social interaction, for various reasons, he has never been the proactive party. But in my heart, on the contrary, because of this, I yearn for someone to understand. He can always stand by his side-perhaps the entangled and strong feelings that pushed him on the path of psychopathic evolution.
“Little brother Liu Ling, you avenged them, I am very grateful to you.” Loni patted Liu Ling on the back.
I don’t know if he is drunk in his heart or his body is still amazingly strong, the power in his hands seems unexpectedly large.
“But the two of them can’t come back anymore.”
Silence spreads the atmosphere of deep sorrow into this small space even more.
Liu Ling wanted to persuade him to do something to help him share the pain. But even in the field of telepathy, people who can feel the same and feel sad for this, but he has racked his brains and it is difficult to organize a sentence to comfort and enlighten him.
He opened his mouth, and finally couldn’t say what he said.
He could only pour this cup of liquid into his mouth fiercely.
The flavored water tastes bitter and exciting, just like real spirits.
Strong stimulation can numb people’s emotions and make it easier for him to release. But the same–
The water will flow even more when the knife is cut off, and the sorrow will be relieved by a toast.
“Brother Ronnie…”
His throat moved, and finally he made up his mind to speak.
“Although I am an outsider, I will not be shy and say that I can fully understand your feelings. But for now, let me accompany you for the time being and share your pain.”
The man did not speak, frowned and shook his head, but he just kept patting his hand behind his back.
He understands, or can hear what he said, people who can more or less understand his pain. Although he would not say that, it was enough.
Liu Ling beckoned, and asked the bartender to fill each of them with a glass.
No need to say more here, everything is silent.
