901. Family
Dawn Star Planet, a small house, three stories high, boxy, looks a little simple and a little old. It is obvious that the house is assembled through modularization, and the issue of aesthetics is not taken into consideration.
There are many such houses in Dawn Star Planet, the capital of Dawn City, mainly in the west of the city. It was once the center of the city, and when the colony was first being built, the first batch of modular housing dropped by air was in this area.
And because there is a river right next to it, in the early days of the colony's development, it saved a lot of drainage and water collection work, and also supplied a lot of food and irrigation water for agricultural areas. The environment here is also very good.
But later, with the development of the city, the river became an obstruction, so the city continued to expand northward. Later, even Planetary Administrative Center also moved to the north of the city, and the west of the city became the old city.
However, the residents here in the west part of the city are anything but simple.
As the first residents of the colony, most of them now hold prominent positions in Fourth Civilization, which can be said to be of high authority. Moreover, the vast majority of this group of people are doers, who have come up step by step with their own hands. They put more energy into their work and the development of civilization.
Therefore, even though as the city expands, more luxurious residential areas and villa areas are built one after another, they still live in their old houses and are reluctant to move out.
In the end, a legend even formed on Dawn Star Planet - in the ugly old modular houses in the west of the city, if you throw a brick at random, the person you hit might be a minister.
For example, in this house, a middle-aged man is preparing breakfast himself.
He has a strong build. Although he is only wearing a casual T-shirt, his tall and straight posture is still like a mountain, stable, reliable and full of strength.
At this moment, he was carefully spreading the fried eggs on top of the three bowls of butterfly noodles in front of him, and sprinkled them with a little bit of fine salt. He looked like a housewife.
But if you change the occasion and go to the magnificent Planetary Administrative Center in the north of the city, almost everyone will stand up and salute him, and then call him respectfully, General Xiao.
That's right, he is Major General Xiao Guanghua, one of the Fourth Civilization Army's frontline Commander. Although his military rank is only major general, his seniority in the military is almost unparalleled, much earlier than the current Army General Xian Hui.
Xiao Guanghua brought the prepared omelette butterfly noodles over, first gave a bowl to his wife, and then placed the other bowl in an empty place on the other side of the dining table. Finally, he sat down at his seat, picked up a spoon and took a spoonful of colorful butterfly noodles, and shouted, "Yanzi! Come and eat!"
No one responded, but he was accustomed to it. He ate a few bites of butterfly noodles, then picked up an egg tart on the table, handed it to the side of the air naturally and said, "Here, let's try the egg tart your mother baked for you first."
Still no reply...
"You're not going to come out, are you?" Xiao Guanghua directly sent the egg tart forward, seemed to hit something, and then wiped it violently. There was a scream in the air, and then a cute girl of 5 or 6 years old appeared out of thin air, with a large piece of egg tart on her nose.
"Ugh... Dad, how did you know I was here?" The girl pouted and asked while wiping her nose with a tissue.
This little girl has very fair skin and a very cute pink face. Although she is only 5 or 6 years old, she is much taller than her peers.
Xiao Guanghua chuckled, "Your father has been fighting with Galactic Republic his whole life. I haven't seen any of those Jedi Knight tricks? You still want to lie to me with this little trick?"
The little girl wrinkled her nose and retorted, "Huh! I've heard of it. You got away with Naboo that time and ended up being captured by those Gungan..."
Xiao Guanghua blushed, "Oh, that time, I went to see the fun in the name of military advisor, but I was tricked by those wimps Trade Federation! Doesn't count, haha! Doesn't count! Why didn't you say Bespin Planet or Christophsis? Your father and I are very famous on those battlefields!"
"Okay, you two, stop making trouble. Have a good breakfast, and then Yanzi is going to the Force Academy." The wife said from the side.
The circles under her eyes were still a little red, and she had obviously just cried. He put the fried eggs in his own bowl into the little girl's bowl and said, "Eat more! Let's eat together next time. I don't know how long it will be..."
As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes again.
Xiao Guanghua patted his wife on the shoulder, "Okay, okay, I said everything I needed to say last night. Yanzi is lucky to have such innate power, and it is also lucky for us Fourth Civilization."
"But I don't know what this Force Academy is. I have to send my daughter there and I don't know when I can see her again..." My wife started to cry.
"Oops! I told you... This academy is the top secret of the country, but I know some things inside. Although I can't tell you, I guarantee that Yanzi will definitely get the best care and the best education in the past." Xiao Guanghua said.
"Then you still won't tell me?! What I'm giving away is my only flesh and blood!" the wife said angrily.
"How can I say that? I still want to be a lieutenant general before I retire, right? What if the secret is leaked to me and I come back in a few years with the rank of corporal?" Xiao Guanghua suppressed the reluctance in his heart and told a cold joke.
Their daughter was still sensible. She came over and patted her mother on the back and said, "It's no problem, Mom, I will definitely come back when I graduate..."
At this time, a whistle sounded outside the door. Xiao Guanghua went over to open the door, only to see a Selurite standing at the door. Seeing his appearance, Xiao Guanghua's face changed slightly, because he recognized this person from his clothes and it was clearly Selurite Special Operations Forces's person!
Being personally escorted by this person who is a notoriously terrible force on the Galactic Republic side shows the weight of this batch of 'Force Academy' new students, and also the weight of this 'Force Academy'!
This person Selurite Special Operations Forces glanced at Xiao Guanghua and said quickly, "General Xiao The appointed time has come and I will pick up Xiao Yan We will go to the academy directly from Glory mothership. You don't need to follow Xiao Yan. You will get the best education and training. The next time you see her will be in 5 years. If nothing happens."
Xiao Guanghua nodded, turned around and came to his daughter Xiao Yan, hugged her tightly in his arms, and said in a deep voice, "Do it well, Yanzi, you must be the best one!"
The little girl cried when she was infected, "Don't worry, Dad, I will definitely be the best..."
The hover car started its engine and headed towards the space port. Xiao Guanghua gave a serious military salute to the shadow of the car. Under the bathing sun, his figure was so tall and straight, and he was worthy of being a soldier who defended his home and country.
Then, he only felt a pair of warm arms hugging him gently from behind, Xiao Guanghua caressing his wife's hands that were rough from doing housework for a long time, unable to say a word.
"You're leaving too... right?" the wife said softly.
Xiao Guanghua sighed, "Malastare...Sefrans-Admiral Tann has defeated Republic fleet. She needs to occupy the planet capital within a month. I will lead Fourth Legion to personally participate in the battle."
The wife's hug became tighter, "You will come back, right?...Yanzi was with me before, but now... now..." She began to sob.
Xiao Guanghua held his wife's hand tightly and said softly, "I have to go... This is the responsibility on the shoulders of our generation. Let us people finish all the wars we should fight. Yanzi When they grow up... they won't have to fight..."
The wife burst into tears, "But when Yanzi comes back from the Force Academy, he will also go to the battlefield, right!? The opponent is Galactic Republic!... When will this battle be over?"
Xiao Guanghua pulled his wife over and hugged her, stroking her back. He looked up at a group of Valkyrie missile frigate figures passing by on the horizon, and said in an extremely firm tone, "We will win, we will definitely win!"
Artificial Star Ring slowly turned around at this time and passed through the sky. A huge shadow covered the sky and the sun. Even on the ground, you could see the dense lights on Star Ring, as well as the huge Space Shipyard...
Facing this magnificent industrial power, my wife also stopped crying and looked blankly at the sky, watching a shuttle take off in the direction of the space port and fly towards the sky.
