85 Life goes on (1/2)
”Which general…?” Fatty felt helpless. The self-esteem of Russell might be too high, right? Only a general could see through your plan and not a first lieutenant staff officer?
Towards this enemy, Fatty did not have any good words and could not care less about him. Waving his hand as if chasing away a housefly, he said, ”This question is something which you should ask General Bernadotte yourself when you meet him.”
Russell had met a nail; he nodded his head and left while feeling strange in his heart: ‘Just a first lieutenant from the special forces of the Leray Federation is already so bullish… He was meeting an Empire’s general who could possibly become a general of the Federation, and yet, he did not even show any reverence. These Federation soldiers are all seemingly indifferent to such things.’
Two days of time passed very quickly. On the dawn of the third day, Tian Xing Jian had not even gotten up from his bed before the fleet inviting Russell had come over to the Restaurant Si Mai and waited for him outside.
For the sake of coordinating with the propaganda, the Federation government placed a great deal of effort on this ceremony, and even Federation President Hamilton had personally come to Jialipalan for this invitation. Towards an opponent of war, this standard was enough to show respect to Russell, and at the same time, it was fiercely slapping the face of Gyaca Woods Empire on the international stage.
During these two days, the reported news on television regarding this matter had been really verbose, and furthermore, there was an uproar going on in the international scene as the inner circle of the Gyaca Woods Empire descended into chaos. Fatty had never thought of how important this person, who had been kicked and beaten by him along the way here, was; this famous general, who did not even rank amongst the top few most famous military experts internationally, could actually create such a chain of domino effects.
The Gyaca Woods Imperial Army on the surface of Miracolo Planet had completely crumbled, and all of its Imperial fleets had retreated from the Newton Galaxy. The Federation went ahead to reoccupy the entire main Miracolo planet. Coupled with the complete triumph on Miracolo No.2 Planet and the occupation of the entire outer space region of the Newton Galaxy, this led to the wavering of the inner circle of the Empire and a rise in the morale of the Federation population. These had been results of the betrayal of a general from the Empire.
And the Federation connected the matters regarding the special position of Russell, the victory at Newton Galaxy, as well as the prisoners-of-war incident to bring about a chain of propaganda warfare, lowering the Gyaca Woods Empire royal family’s reputation to its lowest, causing them to find themselves utterly isolated in the international stage.
At this moment, this was no longer related to Tian Xing Jian. Having enjoyed his beauty sleep, he woke up naturally and changed into his uniform before walking out of the restaurant and boarding an extravagant flying car that was arranged for him at the restaurant. Fatty decided to have a look over at Jialipalan City. Ever since the start of the war, he had almost forgotten what this kind of life felt like.
Jialipalan was the center of the entire Miracolo’s governance, economy, and culture. The density of the population was the highest among all of its cities, with over ten famous universities which had long histories behind them located here.
The human population that migrated from outer space had already transformed this planet of about the same size as earth and deeply imprinted it with the culture of humans.
Those of the Federation were free, brave, and hard-working, and the local residents of Miracolo Planet also had these characteristics, albeit on a much higher level.
Walking along the streets of Jialipalan, the coming and going of those flying ships whistled past, and the pedestrians would gather at the mouth of the streets before splitting off to their respective destinations. Everyone was full of smiles and was in high spirits; the entire city was clearly full of life.
Several shops were under preparation for the re-opening of their businesses as the technicians were currently there repairing. As for the advertisement posters by the side of the roads, they were currently showing some famous singer who would be coming over to hold a concert. Several students stood underneath the posters, chatting and giggling non-stop excitedly. An old man was standing by the display window in a shopping mall, watching the employee provide a model simulation of the latest fashion trends. Seeing how those employees were staring at him, the perverted old man showed an embarrassed smile before placing his hands behind his back and looking around as if nothing had happened and went off. Several young and pretty girls who had put on makeup and wore the latest trending clothings excitedly came out from the huge entrance of the shopping mall. In their hands were the big and small bags of their spoils of war as they chatted while walking and releasing peals of melodious laughter.
The human race was usually good at licking their wounds quickly, recovering from their injuries and pain, before adapting with a new mindset that could not be explained with words as they headed into a new life. Those bygones were merely bygones, as their lives had to go on.
