StarCraft In the Palm of Your Hand Chapter 17

Three days later, the square in front of the city hall was full of people, a venue had been set up, dozens of live broadcast screens were erected, and a holographic electronic banner read "1127 Memorial Massacre and Titan Light Battle Commendation Conference".

A week had passed since the tragedy, and the atmosphere of sadness gradually faded. After all, the remaining people still had to live.

At this time, the news that the hero who saved the city would be awarded honors in front of the city hall spread throughout the city, so people came spontaneously, wanting to see their savior.

From early in the morning, people began to gather, and until nine o'clock in the morning, the crowd had completely blocked the entrance of the city hall, leaving only a central road surrounded by colored ribbons for vehicles to pass through.

Yang Ying was taken into the venue by the vehicle of the city hall early in the morning.

There are more than a dozen rows of seats in the venue, Yang Ying is the protagonist of the meeting, the one who has made the most contributions, his seat is on the far right of the front row, Lieutenant General Randolph is on the left, and Major Wen, the female intelligence officer, is sitting on the far left. On the left is a group of combat heroes emerging from the Titan star garrison, there are nearly twenty of them.

Master Pang Qian sat directly behind Yang Ying, in the first position in the second row, which shows how respected his status is in the military.

In front of them is a temporary high platform, about 100 square meters in size, for the awarding of honors.

At exactly nine o'clock, the meeting begins.

The host was a military representative. He first asked everyone to observe a three-minute silence for the victims of the disaster, and then said:

"Although there are no victors in this battle, there are a group of heroes who fought desperately on the battlefield and worked hard for the lives of the people. We should not forget it. There is a hero who wiped out the ancient army alone in the battle. A powerful enemy, crossing half of the urban area, risked his life to repair the central air conditioner, and persisted until the arrival of reinforcements. The coalition government decided to award him the highest honor—the Medal of the Solar System. Now let him come up and say a few words. Everyone welcomes Mr. Yang Ying !"

Yang Ying walked up to the high stage amidst thunderous applause, and said into the microphone:

"Thank you everyone. At this moment, I deeply feel the power of fate. It is fate that made me appear at that time, that place, and do those things. Without the help of fate, I would have died under low temperature. ;Even if you come back alive, you will die from the attack of the apes; or even if you come to the central air-conditioning building, you will not be able to repair it. If you want to thank, please thank the omnipresent fate!"

The applause sounded again, and Yang Ying took the medal and certificate from the host after finishing speaking, and returned to his seat.

The solar system medal looks like a model of the solar system. The silver badge has a five-carat diamond in the center representing the sun, and eight orbits are inlaid with gold wires around it. There are eight gemstones of various colors on the orbit, representing the eight planets (Pluto has been excluded from the ranks of planets).

This is the highest honor awarded by the United Earth Government. The honorees have huge benefits and are very convenient in all walks of life.

Next, the host invited Lieutenant General Randolph to come on stage to give an honorary speech. Randolph immediately became energetic, straightened his clothes, especially the pile of medals on his chest, and then walked onto the high stage with a friendly smile.

On the side, Major Wen took the opportunity to quietly shift his position, came to Yang Ying's side and asked, "Why do you suddenly think of fate?"

"This is originally an arrangement of fate. I'm just telling the truth." Yang Ying said, "But you, Major Wen, I still don't know your name."

"Then I should introduce myself." Major Wen stretched out his hand, "My name is Wen Jing, the intelligence officer of the Seventh Fleet Major. Nice to meet you."

Yang Ying shook hands with her: "In this way, we have officially known each other."

Randolph on the stage was talking about how he kept in touch with Yang Ying and helped Yang Ying build up his confidence at critical moments. After talking about it, it was as if Yang Ying was his brother, he was Yang Ying's brain, and Yang Ying's every action It's all done under his orders.

Wen Jing felt blushed when she heard this, but seeing Yang Ying's expression remained unchanged, she couldn't help asking: "Aren't you angry when you hear that?"

"What's there to be angry about?" Yang Ying smiled slightly, "This old man has helped me a lot."

"How?" Wen Jing was a little puzzled.

"Look at those people over there first." Yang Ying pointed in the direction of the representative of the Titan star garrison.

Wen Jing looked back and saw that the atmosphere among those people was very dignified, as if a storm was brewing, and many of them were staring at Randolph with bulging veins on their foreheads, as if they wanted to eat him into their stomachs.

Yang Ying continued: "These soldiers rushed through the ancient army's line of defense desperately, and lost more than a hundred comrades in arms before they arrived here. But I, a commoner, won the honor of saving 300,000 people single-handedly. Where is the face of the Titan star garrison?"

Wen Jing frowned slightly: "Could they hate you for this?"

"Not everyone will hate me, but there will definitely be a lot of people who are unbalanced." Yang Ying analyzed again, "It's not enough, Titanlight lost more than 300,000 civilians in this disaster. In the final analysis, it is also the fault of the military's ineffective rescue. The garrison of the Titan star is responsible for the majority of this fault. The Seventh Fleet just arrived a little earlier and took over the unguarded city, so they only accounted for a small part of the credit for liberating the city. .In hindsight, if the faults outweigh the merits, how can these **** soldiers be balanced?"

"This..." Wen Jing hesitated, "It sounds reasonable."

Yang Ying's mentality is very relaxed now. He has long stopped taking these official achievements seriously, so he can look at this matter with a detached perspective. "Not everyone in the world treats others with a tolerant attitude. Especially when their personal interests are at stake, these unbalanced people don't think they are at fault, but someone has to be responsible for the facts, so they will blame others. Who is at fault? Of course, it is their fault The one who snatched it was me!"

Wen Jing also quickly understood, looked at Yang Ying with surprised eyes and said, "No wonder you can think so openly, it turns out that you have such an idea a long time ago."

Yang Ying nodded: "But now with the old man Randolph, things are different at UUReading Bookwww.uukanshu.com. Although I am a commoner, I still killed an ape-man and a giant beast after all, and risked my life to earn money." I deserve this credit." He pointed to Randolph, who was spitting all over the stage, and said, "The old man didn't do anything at all, he just talked about it in the office, and gave a long list of credits. Holding it on my body, with him around, all the firepower on my body will be shared by him."

Wen Jing looked at Randolph, then at the faces of several fighting heroes in the Titan Star Garrison, and said worriedly: "This will be troublesome."

Yang Ying looked at Wen Jing's expression and asked, "Are you familiar with this old man?"

"Yeah." Wen Jing nodded and said, "My father and Uncle Randolph are comrades-in-arms. We met in the same trench. We have a very good relationship. After my brother and I joined the army, it was thanks to his care."

"That's it." Yang Ying said indifferently, "There is no need to worry about this old man. He has lived a long time. It is possible to be without wisdom, but how can he be inexperienced? Just look at those fox eyes. Guessing this situation, he started to be hated as soon as he sat in that position, and he must have gotten used to the hatred by now. His thick skin is almost like a city wall, and even laser light can't penetrate it."

After hearing this, Wen Jing let out a series of crisp laughter: "How can there be such a detrimental thing..."

"Five hundred years ago..."

At this time, Randolph had finished speaking and walked down. The two did not continue talking, and Wen Jing quietly returned to her seat.
