Chapter 21 Heroic Elegy
Long Xingyi won, and there was no cheer or cheer in the crowd.
The leader of the Tutetu people walked onto the stage and looked down at Sharutu's body for a few seconds. He looked up at Long Xingyi for a few seconds. Long Xingyi couldn't tell whether he was angry or shocked from his eyes, nor could he understand what the other party said. The leader of the Tutetu people said something to Long Xingyi and then walked off the ring. Other Tutetu people in the stage also stood up and packed their clothes. Two of them came on stage to carry Sharutu's body away and his tongue.
A lonely applause was remembered in the human camp, which was Mingchen Sea. His wrinkled face was full of tears. His applause was like a stone stirring up a thousand waves, inspiring the human camp. In an instant, thunderous applause resounded throughout the dome of the competition.
The human camp also sent several soldiers to the stage to clean up the bodies of Paululusha and Yin Zhendong. Long Xingyi walked down the ring silently, picked up the mecha bracelet on the ground, and put on the mecha. The sweat-removing system in the mecha automatically dried the sweat on his body.
Long Xingyi walked to Mingchenhai. Mingchenhai looked at him as if he was looking at his son and asked him, "Do you still know Wing Chun Fist?"
Long Xingyi nodded slightly, "My cousin is a martial arts fanatic. He has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. When he grew up, he became a famous Wing Chun Boxing coach in our place. Infected by him, I have also learned some boxing techniques just to strengthen my body."
Immediately, Long Xingyi looked at Yin Yuting with a side face. In fact, he didn't dare to look directly at her, but when Long Xingyi looked at her, he found that Yin Yuting was smiling at her.
"Sorry, if I had gone up early, Captain Yin wouldn't have sacrificed..."
Before he finished speaking, a heavy voice rang out from his side: "That's right, not only your warriors, but also my Paululusha, who will stand in front of me now." The person who spoke was not someone else, but General Andre.
Ming Chenhai shook his head, and said to Long Xingyi, and General Andrei: "Remember, your victory is not just your victory. Without the efforts of Paululusha and Yin Zhendong, the opponent's physical strength would not be consumed so quickly, and the offensive would not be panicked so quickly. Now who wins and loses is not even known. You are the last sword that is inserted into the opponent when he is already tired."
Long Xingyi didn't care about Andrei's opinion, he just looked at Yin Yuting with his side again. He found that Yin Yuting was also nodding to him in agreement. There were tears in his eyes with a smile on his face.
General Andrei sighed when he heard Ming Chenhai's analysis and extended his right hand to Long Xingyi, "No matter what, you are the warrior who saved the entire human race. From now on, you will be my Andrei Baurkonsky's friend."
Long Xingyi shook hands with him, but at this time he was not in the mood to say anything polite, but just smiled tiredly.
After Andrei walked away, everyone also stood up and walked out of the arena and returned to their spaceship. Long Xingyi suddenly remembered and asked Ming Chenhai, "What did the Tutu guy just said to me?"
"He said that you were the strongest human warrior he had ever seen, which surprised him. The Tutetu people respected the warriors and would abide by the agreement. In the next 100 years, the Tutetu people will not attack the solar system again." Ming Chenhai said.
"The shelf life is quite long." Long Xingyi finally made his first joke after the game. "Where will we go next?"
Ming Chenhai took Long Xingyi into the spaceship, "Let's go to the moon to rest first, and the funerals of Paululusha and Yin Zhendong will be held there. Then we must be prepared to counterattack the earth."
"So fast?" Long Xingyi continued to talk about this topic, hoping to divert his attention and try to heal his inner pain.
Ming Chenhai's expression was extremely calm, and he seemed to understand him and replied: "Of course, we have to wait for it to cool down first. The earth that was just barbecued by plasma cannons is not that easy to be stunned."
Long Xingyi smiled, as if she suddenly thought of something again. She looked back at the cabin and kept searching. Finally, she saw Yin Yuting's figure in the corner of the rear of the cabin of the spacecraft. She had been very quiet since the end of the game.
"Go and see her!" Ming Chenhai saw Long Xingyi's thoughts again and patted his shoulder.
Long Xingyi walked through the shaking cabin, and the driver shouted from the cab: "People who haven't sat down yet, sit down quickly! Fasten the seat belt, we are going to pass through the atmosphere." Long Xingyi did not sit down, but accelerated a few steps, walked to the empty seat next to Yin Yuting, and sat next to her. He was about to speak, but was interrupted by Yin Yuting.
"Don't apologize to me, you did nothing wrong. And I have been regarded as the supreme honor of a soldier by my uncle. If he sees the current results, he will praise you." Yin Yuting seemed to be avoiding Long Xingyi's gaze and looked ahead and said.
Long Xingyi nodded, "He was born great and died glorious. He is my role model. I... will... for him..."
"What are you for him? Take care of me for him?" Yin Yuting interrupted him again, but this time she turned her face and joked to him, "Save it! It would be nice if you can take good care of yourself. I'm not a three-year-old."
Seeing Yin Yuting finally laughed, the dark clouds in Long Xingyi's heart finally dissipated. He smiled embarrassedly and stopped talking.
The spaceship carried them back to the front line command center. As soon as the spaceship got off, Long Haoqian ran over excitedly. It seemed that the incident happened on Europa, and everyone here also saw it through the communication system.
"Retreat! The Tutetu people's warships have begun to retreat!" Long Haoqian ran up and reported to Mingchen Haihui. At the same time, he also looked at Long Xingyi behind him with his big twinkle eyes.
"Yes." Ming Chenhai agreed without surprise, and said while walking forward: "Prepare to withdraw from the Star Covenant Space Station and then move to the moon base."
Long Haoqian answered loudly with excitement, "Yes!" and then turned around and said to Long Xingyi, "I saw it! It's so amazing! It's worthy of being my ancestor!"
It sounded so awkward... Long Xingyi thought to himself, but he just smiled awkwardly at the communications officer in front of him. However, Yin Yuting laughed out loud "puke" next to him.
Long Xingyi and others did not leave the hangar. Generals such as Ming Chenhai made simple arrangements at the front line command center and returned to the hangar. Everyone took the spaceship back to the Star Covenant Space Station again.
After resting at the Star Covenant Space Station for a night, everyone was exhausted, so they all got into their sleeping bag early and had nothing to do all night. On the second space day, Long Xingyi and others followed the Star Covenant troops to the moon.
The moon in 2199 is no longer a barren planet with craters on the surface, but a living area covered with artificial atmosphere and blooming flowers. As Yin Yuting said before, most of the people living on the moon are rich, so the construction is better than the earth in comparison. The ecological area is densely trees and the living area is bustling with traffic. The spacecraft bypasses the living area and heading to the military base, there is actually a green crop. Long Xingyi thought, if humans had known to live in harmony with nature, perhaps the earth now would still be alive.
The spacecraft landed on a flat military base apron, and everyone walked off the spacecraft. Long Haogan followed Ming Chenhai, next to Lei Ling, Long Xingyi and others.
"The bodies of Captain Yin and Su Guo Baofurusha have been transported here directly from the previous point, and are now properly placed in the center of the body. Su Guo decided to bury the bodies of Baofurusha in the sky, and Captain Yin's bodies..." Long Haogan asked Ming Chenhai for instructions.
Ming Chenhai stopped a little, looked back at Yin Yuting, and said, "Ask the family!"
A trace of sadness flashed in Yin Yuting's eyes, and she immediately said, "Cremn it! My uncle is still a very traditional person."
Ming Chenhai nodded, "Then let's cremate."
The funeral was held in a small martyr's cemetery behind the base. The funerals of the two martyrs were extremely solemn. The etiquette teams of the two countries were neatly arranged on both sides of the corridor, watching the metal coffins containing the bodies of the two heroes slide past in front of them. The people present, regardless of whether they knew each other or not, bowed their heads and observed silently.
The Soviet general Andrei made a speech to Paululusha, vigorously praised Paululusha's heroic deeds during his lifetime, and sang a folk song from their own country with passion to praise the warrior who died young.
It was not Yin Yuting who recited the eulogy for Yin Zhendong, but Ming Chenhai. He wore a neat military uniform and was covered with medals. He walked to the stage solemnly, raised his head and chest, and said to the people below the stage word by word:
"When I was a team leader, one day, the army held a speech contest, and I was deeply attracted by the speech of a strong young man. He said that when an ancient swordsman met his opponent, no matter how powerful his opponent was, even if the opponent was the number one swordsman in the world, he knew he would be defeated, even if he fell under the opponent's sword, he would still be honored even if he was defeated. What kind of spirit is this? This is the spirit of sword drawing! This young man who delivered the speech is the martyr in front of you - Yin Zhendong.
In a later mission, due to my failure in command, his brother Yin Zhenbei died. Yin Zhendong resented me and my superiors. But even so, he still maintained principles, obeyed orders, fulfilled his mission, and protected the people. Although we had deep misunderstandings, I admired him more and more in my heart.
Faced with the powerful alien, Yin Zhendong bravely drew his sword. He used his sacrifice to exchange for peace for all mankind. Paululusha and Yin Zhendong are heroes of all mankind and glorious warriors..."
As Long Xingyi listened, he began to think a lot involuntarily. When he recalled the deeds he had with Mr. Yin, he felt even more and more sad. It was not until he was awakened by the singing of the people around him that he came to his senses.
It turned out that after Ming Chenhai recited the eulogy, he led everyone to sing the "International Song". It really has the spirit of international humanism, Long Xingyi thought.
After the representatives of the two countries delivered eulogies, the etiquette team fired guns to mourn the two martyrs. Immediately, the Soviet side sent the body of Paululusha into space through a small rocket. Yin Zhendong's body was sent to the cremation center for cremation.
After saying goodbye to the body, Yin Yuting went to deal with the resettlement of Yin Zhendong's ashes. Long Xingyi was alone in the Martyrs' Cemetery, staring at Yin Zhendong's tombstone and the empty tomb.
"Those who survive shall live secretly, and those who die shall grow up." Long Xingyi turned around and found that Ming Chenhai was standing behind him.
Ming Chenhai walked up and gently stroked Long Xingyi's shoulder, "He read that right, you are a good person. We still have something to do, don't be indulging in the past. I just received the news that the Interstellar Alliance learned about your defeat of the Tutetu star people and wanted to present you an award. You kid, you are going to show your face in front of the entire universe!"
Long Xingyi didn't react at first, then suddenly turned around and widened his eyes.
