Capital star, headquarters, base camp of Charno army.
Bai Weiqi and Ye Haoran looked sadly at the heavily armed soldiers outside the window. Four agents in black clothing stood quietly in the corner of the room, staring coldly at the two gray-haired old men. You can't find any pity or uneasiness in their eyes. Their green eyes and golden hair show that these people are not Chalnois at all. A few hours ago, Yang Haojun, who had been hiding in his secret underground bunker, suddenly appeared in the command hall of the headquarters. Behind him were groups of heavily armed soldiers. With the appearance of Yang Haojun, the peaceful capital star was shrouded in gunfire and smoke. All soldiers who refused to put down their weapons were shot mercilessly. Blood stained the smooth metal floor red, and the headquarters building representing the highest military command center in Charno was filled with the stench of blood. The democracy that the Charno people have fought for for thousands of years was ruthlessly trampled on at this moment.
At the same time as Yang Haojun, there were many senior officials from the power center of Charno, including the Speaker of the Democratic Assembly and the Chief of Security of the Capital Star, who appeared in the headquarters building. It was obvious that this coup without warning was helped by them.
"Why?" Facing the cold muzzle of the gun, the old marshal asked calmly, with deep sadness in his eyes.
The two old men pushed away the crowd surrounding them, their strange white robes identifying them. Different from the evasive looks of others, these two people stood proudly in front of Bai Weiqi, with a somewhat mocking expression on their faces. "For survival, Marshal Bai!"
Bai Weiqi glanced at the visitor with disdain and turned his attention to Yang Haojun, who was standing at the front of the crowd. Yang Haojun's face was a little pale. He was wearing a brand new and straight Lieutenant General's uniform, and the golden Charno general star badges on his shoulders were shining brightly. At this moment, the General Charno star, which represented the glory of the Charno military, looked so dazzling. Yang Haojun's lips trembled slightly, his right hand hanging down by his side clenched his fist, his eyes were lowered, as if he did not dare to face this old man who was like a dying lion.
"Let me explain it." One of the two old men took a step forward, imperceptibly blocking Bai Weiqi's bright eyes from looking at Yang Haojun. "A few years ago, General Yang Haojun unfortunately suffered from Pallas's disease. I think the old marshal should know about this virus."
An incredible light flashed in Bai Weiqi's eyes. He was too familiar with this virus. As humans continue to expand their interstellar territory, native viruses from ecological planets are also beginning to wreak havoc in the human world, and there are countless viruses that have caused serious consequences. However, for the Republic of Charno, the most serious one was undoubtedly the Pallas virus in the Death Star more than 40 years ago. That virus eventually led to the death of hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers in the starry sky, and also became a part of the military's development ecosystem. The pain cannot be forgotten in the process of becoming a star.
"Palas? This is impossible." President Ye Haoran exclaimed. He had not yet become the President of the Republic at that time, but in his memory, in order to ensure the safety of the human world, all soldiers and starships died in explosions. The Star Territory and the Death Star Territory have also become restricted areas for humans.
Yang Haojun gently pushed the old man in front of him, "Let me tell you. In fact, the prototype of the Pallas virus has not been completely destroyed. The military's secret laboratory has been secretly developing this virus." Although Yang Haojun did not explain, everyone understood the purpose of the military's secret research on this pathogen.
Ye Haoran turned sideways and looked at Bai Weiqi. As a military commander, it was impossible for Bai Weiqi not to know about this kind of thing. Facing Ye Haoran's questioning gaze, Bai Weiqi nodded helplessly. "I thought the pathogen in Laboratory No. 6 had been completely destroyed in the biochemical accident eleven years ago."
"In fact, no. Perhaps you, old marshal, still remember that Laboratory No. 6 was under the jurisdiction of the secret forces at that time. At that time, I was not the commander of the secret forces, and I was still full of passion. I dreamed that one day I would be able to The motherland will take off gloriously." Yang Haojun had a self-deprecating expression on his face, looking into the distance with blurred eyes, as if he was remembering those passionate years. "After the biochemical accident occurred in Laboratory No. 6, I was ordered to lead a special biochemical team to board the asteroid. You can't imagine what I saw there, it was hell! Everyone turned into beasts, and the emanations of decay The smelly living dead were wandering in Base No. 6. The purification system of the biochemical suit did not work. Soon someone in the team I led was infected. I had to kill those who followed me one by one with my own hands. Long-time soldiers can still remember the despair in their eyes to this day.¡±
"How did you escape?" The old marshal interrupted Yang Haojun's memory. He knew more about the tragedy that happened in Laboratory No. 6 than Yang Haojun. And he personally ordered the strategic forces to use thermonuclear bombs to destroy the asteroid. He knew that there was a special biochemical unit of a secret force on the asteroid at that time, but he did not know that Yang Haojun was there at the time.Apparently someone in that team later took advantage of their authority to change the roster.
"Do you want to know who tampered with the records at that time?" An old man sitting in an electric wheelchair slowly appeared in Bai Weiqi's sight. Everyone in the hall was attracted by this secret about the past. , the huge hall was unusually quiet, except for the buzzing sound of the old man's electric wheelchair.
Bai Weiqi's eyes suddenly shrank, "Is it you?"
"There was no way. At that time, Suya fell madly in love with this boy. I had no choice but to send someone to rescue the boy and use my authority to modify the data in the central computer. I didn't expect that more than ten years later, this boy would actually He actually became a prince who unified the army, haha."
Bai Weiqi snorted. At that time, this man was the speaker of the parliament and had disciples all over the world. He was indeed capable of saving Yang Haojun, who was silent at the time, from the asteroid. "Then what happened to the virus on his body?"
"When I returned to China, I found out that this kid was also infected with "Paras" at that time. At that time, I wanted to throw this kid into the incinerator, but hundreds of thousands of soldiers had abandoned him, and there wasn't even one more of him. But I had no choice but to throw him into the incinerator. The baby girl disagreed, so I had to find the best biochemistry expert. Originally, I just held the idea of ????"treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor" and tried my best to give Su Ya an explanation. I didn't expect that this guy's physique is different from that of a living horse. It's different for ordinary people, but he got better after a few months. It's really a fate. You know what happened next. With my secret help, this kid has been very successful until today. "
Bai Qiwei didn't say anything. I'm afraid there were other changes, otherwise Yang Haojun wouldn't have to mention it again.
"I didn't expect that the "Palas" virus was extremely stubborn and recurred a few years ago." Yang Haojun slowly walked behind the old man and continued. "This time, all the original means were unable to effectively control "Palas". At that time, the Imperial Alliance was invading. In desperation, I organized the Alk retreat and then disappeared behind the scenes and began to concentrate on treatment."
Bai Weiqi gently nodded, that¡¯s it. At that time, the best person to command frontline military operations was undoubtedly Yang Haojun, who enjoyed a high reputation in the military. But for some unknown reason, Yang Haojun refused to go to the front line again and again. The truth of this mystery that had always puzzled the old marshal was finally revealed. It was also at that time that Bai Weiqi and Yang Haojun began to break up. Bai Weiqi always thought that Yang Haojun was afraid of the enemy and was retaining his strength, but he didn't expect that there was another hidden secret.
"Unfortunately, the treatment results were not satisfactory. The "Palas" virus caused more and more damage to General Yang's body. At the suggestion of the old speaker, General Yang found us." The old man from the Holy Alliance who spoke previously continued Said, "General Yang is very lucky. A few years ago, several elders of the Presbyterian Church developed a "magical transformation" that can extend human lifespan. Although this "transformation technique" cannot cure the virus in General Yang, it can continue His life, so"
Only at this moment did Bai Weiqi finally understand why Yang Haojun colluded with the Holy Alliance. His eyes slowly swept across the group of people who launched the coup. Most of them were already old. The Holy Alliance could continue the "transformation" of life. "Technology" undoubtedly has great appeal to them. With Yang Haojun, a powerful military general, speaking out from his own experience, everything became very simple.
"Aren't you afraid of becoming Charno's sinner and being infamy for eternity?"
"It is better to be infamy for ten thousand years than to turn into a pile of loess, not to mention that Charno is in a precarious situation at the moment. Without the help of the Holy Alliance, I am afraid that we will not even have the chance to be infamy for ten thousand years." The former speaker sitting in the electric wheelchair shouted in hiss, the old cloth There is a hint of madness and fanaticism on the stained face. "Haojun has done so much for Charno, but what about you? Just because he refused to go to the front line, you tried every means to reduce his military power. And you and Ye Haoran, two old fools, secretly transported supplies to Anokhi, you have placed the fate of the entire Charno on a young boy. Does everything you do must be correct? I think you will become Charno¡¯s eternal sinner!"
Bai Weiqi looked at the mad old man in front of him speechlessly. His old body, which had exhausted all his vitality, was like a lonely lamp that was about to burn out. It seemed that it might go out at any time. The "Transformation Technique" of the Holy Alliance undoubtedly gave him hope of continued survival, but also made him paranoid and crazy. A normal person can never reason with a madman, not to mention how they can know the secrets of Yi Lexiang. of. With the further implementation of the "Abyss" plan, what is actually left of Charno at this moment is just a huge empty shell. Even if the Imperials did not conquer the Kador defense line, Charno would not be able to hold on for long. These people talk to themselves so much because they want nothing more than two things: first, to obtain the interstellar coordinates of Anokhi; second, to obtain the military command authority of Kador; I am afraid that they think that all the great changes that occurred in Kador are inevitable. He controlled it with his own hands. He has been in high position for many years.They are obviously unable to understand the inner desires of grassroots officers and soldiers and the people. Power has completely blinded their eyes.
Bai Weiqi couldn't help but smile up at the sky. The Abyss Project was coming to an end. At this time, apart from the actual participants who had arrived at Anokhi, only the old marshal knew about Anokhi's interstellar coordinates. Ye Haoran only knew of Annuoji's existence but did not know the specific coordinates of Annuoji. It was a very long number.
According to the interstellar calendar, on July 21, 1647 in the New Era, the people of Charno ushered in the saddest day. The old marshal Bai Qiwei passed away.
The official released a long obituary, describing in detail Marshal Bai Weiqi¡¯s busy life serving the country and the people. The obituary ended with only a few simple words describing the cause of the old marshal¡¯s death: he died of mental and physical exhaustion at the age of seventy-two.
However, a few years later, with the rise of New Charno, history faithfully recorded the cause of death of the old marshal: committing suicide by taking poison. For the sake of Charno's new life, the old marshal chose to die to keep the secret that held everyone's hope. In the capital of New Charno, people built a statue for this veteran general who served in the military to forever commemorate everything he did for Charno. The huge statue is lifelike. Under the kind eyes of the old marshal, the children of Charno fought bloody battles and finally rebuilt the Charno Empire.
