Chapter 80 The Duan Family Regained Its Strength!
It took a full seven days for the Duan family to gradually recover from the battle with the star beasts.
Duan Ming doubled the list submitted by each group before sending it to Lin Dengwan, who therefore asked Colonel Gu Li for instructions.
"This is a big mouth! Forget it, give it to him,"
The twelve development bases were re-equipped with a power system, and all weapons and ammunition were replenished. The two warships were also repaired, and the basic equipment and weapons on the Fire Rock Beast were all in place.
Duan Ming also built a warehouse on the back of the Fire Rock Beast to store the extra equipment sent by the military and the government in case of emergency.
Damaged equipment can be repaired, and if it doesn't work, it can be repurchased, but casualties are the biggest blow to the Duan family.
After suffering a heavy blow, it takes time to restore morale to the past.
...
Today is the first dinner for the members of the Duan family after the war. For this dinner, Tang Yaqing and Bai Xianglu prepared for three days.
In front of the villa, tables and chairs were set up, and the twenty members of the weapons control team helped the two women prepare the food.
Duan Ming called back all the family members, and everyone sat down.
The members who were injured in the previous war were gradually getting better, except for one person, who was the most special one among the wounded.
The door of the villa opened, and all the members stood up and looked at the two people who came out of the villa.
Duan Ming was behind, pushing a wheelchair with his hands, and the person sitting in the wheelchair was Wu Yong, who almost lost his life in this battle!
Although Ming was saved, he lost his legs forever.
"Boss, let me do it myself, I can push it myself."
In front of all the family members, Wu Yong was obviously a little restrained. It was against the rules to let the head of the family push the wheelchair for him!
Duan Ming raised his hand and put it on Wu Yong's shoulder.
"If you still recognize me as the head of the family, just sit still and I'll do it!"
Since Duan Ming said so, Wu Yong would not refuse anymore and let Duan Ming push him in front of everyone.
Standing still, Duan Ming looked around at everyone. They all had a look of pity for Wu Yong on their faces. After all, Wu Yong's story of being alone undercover in the battle against the Yu family was an immortal story in the Duan family. But now, this hero can no longer move freely.
"Brothers, I want to say thank you first. It is your bravery and fearlessness that allowed us to win this war. Each of you is the pride of my Duan family!"
After that, Duan Ming bowed deeply to everyone. They deserved this bow!
"Brothers, the second thing I want to say to you is sorry! As the head of the family, there were big problems with my command in the battle, and I didn't notice the approach of danger in advance. This is my dereliction of duty. I should take full responsibility for the consequences of this war!"
After saying this, Duan Ming bowed deeply again. This bow was Duan Ming's responsibility!
"Brothers, this third sentence, I want to say to all those who left us because of the war, each of you will not be forgotten, and half of the Duan family's military medals will always have you!"
Everyone present turned around and faced a newly built building on the back of the Fire Rock Beast. The surface of this building was square, like a huge box, and inside it were the tablets of all those who died in this war, and this building would become the ancestral hall of the Duan family in the future.
Everyone bowed, even Wu Yong, who was sitting in a wheelchair, bowed his head deeply to express his respect.
After a short moment of silence, everyone looked back at Duan Ming again. Duan Ming pressed his hand and motioned everyone to sit down.
"Grief cannot knock us down, it makes us stronger. Let's raise our glasses and cry and laugh to our heart's content. After tonight, let's bury the deep pain in our hearts and carry the wishes of those who left us and keep going!"
"Cheers!"
With Duan Ming's roar, everyone raised their glasses, tears on their faces, and said in unison.
"Cheers!"
No one was not drunk that night. Everyone cried, laughed, and made noises until they fell asleep. This dinner lasted for six hours.
Duan Ming didn't know what was wrong. He couldn't get drunk no matter how much he drank today. He sat in a rocking chair and looked around with a dazed look. There were only a few people who were still sober.
"Come on! Wu Yong! Let's continue drinking!"
Wu Yong couldn't drink alcohol because of his injury, so he used beverages instead. He was also the most sober one present.
"Boss, you can't drink anymore. If you keep drinking like this, your body won't be able to bear it!"
Duan Ming smiled and replied drunkenly: "Do you look down on me? As long as you continue to drink with me, I will agree to whatever you say!"
This is a small problem of Duan Ming. Whenever he drinks too much, he always makes wishes everywhere.
But Duan Ming's drunken words, when Wu Yong heard it, his hands couldn't help but clenched a little. After a long time, Wu Yong whispered.
"Boss, I still want to control the development base..."
Duan Ming, who was originally drunk, was stunned when he heard this sentence, and his drunkenness instantly sobered up a lot.
"Boss, I don't want to be a useless person in the family forever! I still want to control the development base!"
While saying this, Wu Yong raised his hand and slapped his legs without any feeling, as if he hated himself for not being able to stand up!
Looking at this scene, Duan Ming's eyes were red, and after a long time, he trembled and said: "I, I promise..."
Before he finished speaking, the numbness of countless alcohols came to his brain, and Duan Ming fell to the ground with his head raised, and fell asleep.
...
Ten days later, on the back of the seventh domain fire rock beast.
Duan Ming stood on the high platform, looking at the twelve development bases that were lining up in the distance. They were carrying out the last joint attack!
"Wu Yong, don't force yourself too much."
After Duan Ming gave an instruction, he gave an order.
"Development base group, launch an attack!"
After the order, the twelve development bases went towards the mining area at the same time, and the distance between them was no different from the original.
After arriving at the designated location, the pioneering bases launched an attack, cooperating with each other tacitly, and the artillery fire covered the entire mining area for three minutes.
Watching this scene, Duan Ming couldn't help but clench his fists and said in a trembling voice.
"Pioneering base team! Everyone return!"
Five minutes later, the twelve members who controlled the pioneering bases boarded the fire rock beast and slowly came to Duan Ming. In front of them was the leader of the pioneering base team, Wu Yong, who had broken his legs!
"Boss! I didn't let you down! I didn't let my brothers down!"
Yes! Wu Yong relied on his strong willpower to complete this impossible task!
"Wu Yong! Wu Yong..."
In the family voice chat group, the shouts of all members rang out. At this moment, the Duan family completely walked out of the haze of the last war!
