Chapter 1406: Brothers in Woe
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Solar System was still celebrating the victory, especially parliament, who were still fairly optimistic. They felt that this was a good sign to impose a serious warning for the invaders. The Solar System had risen, and at the same time, this had given the military reforms a very good appraisal.
However, Meng Ao and the rest did not feel happy. If the atmosphere had been like this before the war, they would certainly be very excited. They could realize their full potential. However, such optimism did not provide any help for this war. Not only had the military given this war a very high praise, they had also awarded Meng Tian, Achilles, and Lie Xin with medals of honor. This decisive decision changed the outcome of the war, earning victory for the Solar System.
But Meng Tian and the rest were not too excited about such awards. Although they were still young, they had felt the solidity of the other party during this war. This victory was entirely a tactical success, as well as the tactical retreat of the enemies for stability reasons. The next round of attacks would be even fiercer. How would the Solar System resist then?
On the other hand, the atmosphere internally within the federation was very good. Due to their status, they could not downplay their own awe-inspiring authority. Such optimism had also spread to the armies. The coalition army of the Maacah Republic was not a big deal. Even if the war went into a stalemate, with the endless supplies from the Solar System, it would be a drag for the enemies. Some of the people were already considering the compensation for the war.
Meng Ao and the rest were very troubled, but they could only do their best: rest and reorganise the troops and prevent the spreading of a rigorous and impetuous atmosphere. Another sneak attack was out of the question, so they began to execute the next plan. With Achilles and the rest as the lead, an elite force would face off with the sharp blades of the Darkness Empire. Sharp blades versus sharp blades. It could at least block the attacks of the Darkness Empire.
Achilles, Lie Xin, Meng Tian, Zhang Shan, Zhang Runan, Raston, Milo, and the rest had developed into the core forces of the federation army of the Solar System. If it was only conceptual previously, after this war, they had all shown their potential. From ambush to attacks, to catching the right timings, it was pretty amazing.
War was the best place to train the warriors.
Director Oak was in a very good mood. The victory of war was, without doubt, a victory for the Combat Advisory Office. They were the core department. This was too good an opportunity to miss. They had to make good use of this opportunity to magnify the results of the victory of the war. This would help them in their promotion in the future.
“Xiao Xie, you’re an outstanding student. Your penmanship must be very good. Your contributions of the Combat Advisory Office were undeniably very important in the victory of this war. Write a summary report. I want to submit it to the army.” Oak happened to look at Xie Yuxin. This fellow who had not been too pleasing initially did not look half as bad now.
Xie Yuxin was somewhat taken aback. “Director, we have at best temporarily stabilized the situation. How could it be considered a victory?”
Immediately, Oak’s expression became a little distorted. However, in consideration of his status and Xie Yuxin’s retired grandfather, he let out a few dry coughs. “Xiao Xie, on account of your grandfather, let me give you a few pieces of advice. Don’t assume that just because you have gained some experiences elsewhere, you can accomplish everything. I have seen that battle tactics report of yours, it was a load of bullsh**. Do you think you’re God? Young man, be realistic. You may want to ask why Achilles and the rest could do it?”
Xie Yuxin was expressionless. He did not say anything. The director was the only person doing the talking.

“They are the Greatest Kings. Are you comparable to them? It is important to have self-awareness. It’ll serve you well to hone your penmanship. I’m giving you an opportunity by getting you to write this report. This does not happen to everyone!” said Oak earnestly.
Xie Yuxin frowned. He did not get angry easily because such emotion was useless. However, he did not like interacting with idiots. Hence, he did not make any other arguments and nodded sincerely. Oak left feeling proud.
The military reforms of the Solar System could not be considered to be a failure. However, Rome was not built in one day. There was still a number of people like Oak who remained in the army; some were even in rather important positions. This was incomparable with powerful countries like Aslan and Arbiter.
It was not obvious in times of peace. But in times of war, these components were like rotten body parts; as soon as pressure was applied, it could cause a complete breakdown.
However, Xie Yuxin hated such sober feelings. Sometimes he wished that he was a little muddle-headed. He envied Wang Zheng for having such clear goals and passions, pressing forward courageously. As for himself…. honestly, he had some feelings for Earth, but he was just not passionate enough. With the current situation within the Milky Way Alliance, he could not move around freely. Besides, the old man had blackmailed him with his life. Xie Yuxin did not have a choice. He was, after all, a human, so he had to take the feelings of his family into consideration.
However, Xie Yuxin was essentially a lazy person. He could not be bothered to waste any energy on stupid people. Otherwise, he had many ideas. He was a very contradictory man.
Besides Xie Yuxin, Zhang Shan could also feel that such an atmosphere was not quite right. The entire SS Spike fleet was filled with complacency. Zhang Shan could not understand where their complacency stemmed from. A sneak attack against an opponent and they did not encounter any strong opposition – such victory was a given. Even the mindless could achieve this. Did they have to be so happy?
Especially with the current situation. It was a tactical retreat by the enemies. The followup forces would be even stronger. They might not even have time to cry, let alone be so happy.
But Zhang Shan was not dumb either. If he were to argue about this, while they would not go to the extent of beating him up, not that they were capable, he would be ostracized. Being in the army was a group life. If a person could not blend in, regardless of their abilities, it would be useless. But still, Zhang Shan felt very depressed.
This rhythm and feeling were wrong.
Although he was very familiar with Achilles and the rest, they were not people whom Zhang Shan could talk and complain to. There were still differences in their characters. Achilles and the rest could feel it too, but they did not feel that this was a problem. Simply put, this was human nature. As long as they remained alert, things would be fine.
But Zhang Shan simply did not feel the same way. He wanted very much to talk to Wang Zheng, but the information from the Tita Star was not clear. The Tita Star had just achieved victory against the Sirius Star. They would probably be fully occupied, so much so that they could not spare any time for other things.
If Wang Zheng were here, this might not be a problem. The same concerns raised by a different person would have different effects. If these concerns were raised by Wang Zheng, the super hero of the army, he might attract more attention. At least it would serve as a remainder. But if he were to raise the concerns, it would be useless. In the Solar Systems’ army, everyone valued Achilles, Lie Xin, and even Meng Tian. Zhang Shan did not have much influence. Although he had been given the post, he did not have much influence. He could only execute orders during times of war.
This pair of brothers, Xie Yuxin and Zhang Shan, were somewhat depressed. One was too lazy to agonize over it, while the other did not know how to deal with it. But the second major war was pending.
