Chapter 1888 The Wedding Is About to Take Place

A Boeing airliner took off from Cuba, arrived in Mexico City, and then diverted to Salt Lake City. On the plane, a white-haired old man looked out of the window, interested in the earth under the clouds.

The stewardess on the plane came to ask for care from time to time, and when she passed by the old man, she couldn't help but glance at the medal hanging on his chest—commendation medals are not uncommon, and there are many people with outstanding military exploits in the legion. But the old man's various battle medals are quite frightening.

From the Cuban battlefield to the Mexican battlefield, from the landing in Yucatan to the counterattack against Monterrey, from the bloody battle in Celaya to the pursuit of San Miguel, this old man has almost participated in a series of battles during the rise of the Aurora Legion.

Beside the old man was a slightly fat middle-aged Han man. He glanced at the old man's medal, and found that the other party had fought more battles than himself, and many of them were tough battles to the death. This is a hero who climbed out of the sea of ​​blood and corpses, and such people are rare.

"Are you..." The middle-aged Han man was also bored with the journey, so he asked the old man in half-baked Spanish after boarding the plane.

The old man was wearing a military uniform, but he did not wear a military rank, making it impossible to distinguish his identity. However, when he was questioned, he said cheerfully, "I am Papa Julio, and I was invited to attend the wedding of Captain Hugo."

Oh, oh..., this sentence caused a lot of commotion in the cabin. Hearing that the most legendary tank commander of the Legion was walking with him, many people came here to ask for a group photo.

The middle-aged Han man stretched out his hand excitedly and introduced himself, "I am Pang Youcai, and I am also going to attend the wedding of the regiment commander."

Papa Julio also grinned, "You just 'don't want to kill' Pang Youcai? I heard that you were punished for talking nonsense in the official report to the legion commander. Hahaha... I think you deserve it. "

Pang Youcai scratched his head and smiled awkwardly. His embarrassing story is now known to the whole army—disobeying military orders and firing without authorization, and daring to make excuses, he was almost sent to a military court. Fortunately, the outcome of the incident was favorable to the legion, and the head of the legion personally approved that this was not an example, and invited him to his wedding.

After laughing, Pang Youcai looked enviously at the row of medals on Father Julio's chest, and said, "Father, you are really good. You have participated in almost all the battles of the Legion. No one can match this honor."

Father Julio was also very proud of his experience. He even said happily: "I was still a member of the resistance legion, and then I mixed with the legion commander after I was captured. In terms of special experience, there are not many people in the whole legion." Individuals can match me."

"Then why don't you continue to work in the army?" Pang Youcai asked.

Father Julio shook his head and smiled wryly: "I'm old, I don't know how to use new equipment, and I don't know how to command after being promoted to a senior officer. I can't occupy the position to entrap the young men in the army, I have to let someone who is capable."

Pang Youcai sighed again and again, and finally said: "Father, you are our legend, and I want to pay tribute to you."

Papa Julio said humorously: "Forget it, you kill more people than me. I only destroyed dozens of tanks, and you killed countless people. You are a legend."

Pang Youcai scratched his head again, and burst out laughing...

The passenger plane landed at Salt Lake City International Airport, and after getting off the plane, someone came to pick up Pang Youcai and Papa Julio. Security at the airport was very strict, with both the Aurora Legion and the Enclave strictly searching anyone entering Salt Lake City.

Coming out of the airport, the urban area of ​​Salt Lake City has been renovated. The various buildings that were originally destroyed by the catastrophe and war were either cleaned up or redecorated. There are all kinds of flowers on the road, and everyone is beaming and dressed up.

The person in charge of picking up the plane from the Legion explained while driving: "Now the entire Salt Lake City is under military control, and there are military and police personnel everywhere. A month ago, several of our engineering battalions were sent to conduct a city-wide search and thoroughly clean up the city. any safety hazard."

Papa Julio looked out at the road through the car window, and saw not only people from the Legion at the intersection, but also many people from the Enclave. He asked, "The Enclave also sent someone?"

The pick-up staff replied: "Marriage,

Naturally, the Enclave has the right to send someone. After all, the Legion and the Enclave still don't fully trust each other, and the wedding will be held in a few days, with high-ranking officials and dignitaries from all over North America present, and the security requirements are extremely high. We even deployed anti-aircraft missiles and air forces. "

Pang Youcai was also curiously looking at the military and police arrangements in Salt Lake City. He saw not only ordinary infantry, but also a large number of heavy tanks. The M1A3 of the Enclave and the VT-4 and VT-5 of the Aurora Legion have it, and even the latest PLZ-52 self-propelled artillery that the Legion has acquired.

This is all for the sake of showing off and displaying military power!

However, for such a festive event as marriage, it is always a bit weird to have so many armed forces deployed in the city. Pang Youcai and Father Julio wanted to say something, but felt that it was too bad luck, so it was better not to speak.

"Ah... that's the mutant guard of the legion commander." Pang Youcai shouted, pointing at a few sturdy men on the road outside the car.

In order to let Pang Youcai and Papa Julio get familiar with the venue on the wedding day, the pick-up staff specially took them around the Temple Cathedral.

Now the five kilometers around the cathedral are completely under martial law, and no unrelated people are allowed to approach. And among these martial law personnel, the mutants who are the personal guards of the legion are actually at the outermost edge.

The pick-up staff explained: "This was requested by the Enclave. It is said that David Lawrence felt that the mutants were too ugly and vicious like living ghosts, so they were not suitable to show up at the wedding, so they asked the mutants to be responsible. Perimeter security."

Although the mutant guards looked a bit fierce, everyone in Mexico knew that as long as they were not hungry, they were actually quite easy to get along with. Moreover, in the past battles, the originally two hundred mutant guards shrank to more than one hundred, and they used their own sacrifices to prove their loyalty.

As a soldier, Pang Youcai and Julio's father felt aggrieved that the loyal mutant was excluded from the wedding. But if these mutants who looked like half-orcs, or even uglier than half-orcs, stood with the bride and groom, it seemed that it would be too unpleasant.

Alas... Pang Youcai sighed and asked, "Then who will be responsible for the safety of the army commander?"

The pick-up staff shrugged, "We have agreed with Enclave that the security personnel of both sides will only be responsible for matters outside the temple cathedral, and the Mormon church is in charge of the cathedral. The Mormon church also announced that no one is allowed to enter the church with weapons, The security check is checked by three parties, and it is still very strict.”

"That is to say, on the day of the wedding, the legion commander has no one of his own?" Papa Julio asked.

"It should be." The pick-up staff was not sure, "I don't know about this matter, and the specific security arrangements are beyond my knowledge."

Both Pang Youcai and Papa Julio were a little puzzled, but this was not something they wanted to consider, and this doubt was quickly diluted by the festive atmosphere of the wedding. Everyone felt that such a crucial matter could be thought of by themselves, and the high-level executives of the legion would be more considerate.

Let's sprinkle flowers, cheer, celebrate, this wedding that will determine the history of mankind is about to take place!
