The atmosphere on the Osiris had never been so depressing. Lin Ao, who was participating in the morning training, saw almost everyone with a frown on his face while running. As for the reason, Lin Ao heard it from AI Tot when he got up:
After a night of fighting, the second fleet was almost completely wiped out by "H".
The latest situation now is that after wiping out the Second Fleet, about 400 drones are chasing its remnants while going deep into human-controlled areas to attack colonial satellites, regardless of whether all residents of the satellite have been evacuated. The First Fleet, which was repairing at the rear, had to return to the front line early to intercept H's troops, and the Third Fleet would also arrive at the front line sooner to participate in the battle. @
The victory of the First Fleet and the grand sailing ceremony of the Third Fleet gave mankind confidence, but this hard-earned information was shattered not long after. You don’t need to read to know that TV and the Internet are all noisy now. Lin Ao decided to just read and write in the next few days so as not to be upset after surfing the Internet.
At this time, Li Youde had just completed the daily inspection of the ship. When he returned to the captain and wanted to take a breath, he received an encrypted communication from the commander of the Third Fleet, Alan, and now invited all captains to participate in a military meeting.
Li Youde adjusted his collar, started his personal terminal, scanned his upper body, and projected it into the combat intelligence room on General Alan's flagship "Philip II". Seeing that all participants entered the meeting on time, General Alan personally demonstrated the star map projection and said:
"Now that everyone is here, let me briefly explain. Because the Second Alliance Fleet was annihilated and H has begun to invade the area originally controlled by us, the Third Fleet had to start a war with H early. According to the information provided by the First Fleet According to intelligence, a fleet of more than 90 drones is heading to the colonial satellite city-state "Nandumar" at an extremely fast speed. The evacuation of residents there has been 70% completed. Our Third Fleet will adjust its forward direction to block this As for the raid on "Nandumar" by a drone unit, and the detailed combat deployment, I will issue separate military orders based on your division of labor. The meeting is over."
Li Youde was forced to withdraw from the meeting, and then an encrypted military order signed by him appeared in his mailbox. He couldn't help but nodded in admiration: "No wonder the teacher said that General Alan is a soldier who he also finds difficult. He is really vigorous and resolute in doing things."
However, when he clicked on the military order, he frowned. What was written in it was: "...Osiris... The above warships accelerated to the first space area of the colonial satellite city-state "Nandumar" to deploy a defense line to block H's troops. Osiris... The Z team of the Reese is deployed in the second space area of "Nandumar" and directly obeys the orders of General Alan."
Li Youde was a little unhappy. He knew that there must be a price for General Alan's decision to let Luke join Team Z. In the first battle of the Third Alliance Fleet, General Alan took away the command of Team Z. From now on, it is hard to say whether Team Z will be under his own control. But now that Alan has become his immediate superior, he really has no reason to refuse. The military order is irresistible, so Li Youde had no choice but to inform Lieutenant Anton of the news.
Anton was called to the captain's room and listened to Li Youde's report on General Alan's military orders. After Anton's mood stabilized, he comforted Li Youde and said, "Don't worry, didn't General Alan say that Team Z is still under my command? I think the reason for transferring us separately this time is Giving Team Z a chance to perform and expand the publicity of the Moore Chamber of Commerce should not be the norm."
"Even if it becomes normal, I can't refuse..." Li Youde sighed, and then asked Anton: "How is everyone's morale recently?"
"Everyone was quite depressed after the Second Fleet was wiped out. I think we can use this battle to boost everyone's morale."
"Um."
Li Youde nodded and used his personal terminal to search the space map of the colonial satellite city-state "Nandumar". His expression became solemn after looking at it. Anton saw the change in his expression and came over to ask him what was wrong.
Li Youde pointed to the space map of Nandumar and said to Anton: "Originally, I was thinking the same thing as you. General Alan wanted to use Team Z as a special force. But look at the space map. The second space map you deployed At the rear of the First Space Domain. At this position, let alone breaking into the enemy's formation as a special force, even as backup to intercept the enemy forces that have slipped through the net."
"you mean…"
Li Youde said: "I think General Alan wants to treat you like a vase, and the Moore Chamber of Commerce definitely doesn't want your team to suffer casualties."
"
"How...how can this be done? Although I don't want our team to suffer casualties, but not in this cowardly way, I have to protest!"
Li Youde comforted him: "Don't worry, this is just my guess. In short, you must obey the arrangements for this battle, and we will figure out a solution later."
…
The "Rosebud" base of the New Antarctic Empire
A general of the new empire stood in the luxurious hall of the base. He stood by the fireplace and shook the red wine in his hand. He looked out the window at the Antarctic continent where the wind was howling at dozens of degrees below zero. He said angrily to another general beside him. complained:
"Damn Zhuge Daozi, he actually called us to such a cold place."
"Well, it's quite warm inside the base."
"The villain is successful! After the emperor's death, he, a relative who had been a prisoner, would actually take the opportunity to get up. I was afraid that the alliance would liquidate war crimes, so I succumbed to him out of necessity. When H is eliminated and the situation stabilizes, I will definitely Kick him off his throne."
"Hey! Keep your voice down, be careful that walls have ears."
At this time, the third general joined the conversation and said: "I think this matter is going to start, and I'm one of them. Some time ago, Zhuge Daozi went to the moon to expose himself at the Third Fleet's announcement. He was almost attacked by a soldier. There was an accident, of course that’s not the point, the point is that the soldier who attacked him said he wanted to avenge Princess Elizabeth!”
"Oh? Did you really say that?"
"Yes, the alliance suppressed the details of the incident, but I have friends in the media who gave me the recording of the scene. We can use this to put pressure on Zhuge Daozi and bring him down in the future."
The three of them laughed wildly. At this time, the guard opened the door of the hall. Zhuge Daozi left quietly, and the dozen or so generals present fell silent.
"Thank you generals for daring to come all the way to attend the appointment. Please take a seat."
Everyone sat down at the round table in the center of the hall according to military rank according to Zhuge Daozi's instructions. Zhuge Daozi, as the head of the new empire, naturally sat at the first seat. After everyone sat down, Zhuge Daozi said: "Thank you all for coming. This time I called all the outstanding generals to discuss the future fight against "H". I believe you have also heard that the Second Fleet has been destroyed. Yes, the situation is very serious. And I will go out with the Fourth Fleet soon, and I hope that the generals can hand over all their troops to me."
As soon as Zhuge Daozi said this, the hall became silent. The generals looked at each other and felt funny. Zhuge Daozi actually wanted to ask them to hand over all military power with just one sentence.
"What? Isn't everyone willing?" Zhuge Daozi asked.
An old general said: "Leader, all of us have provided a lot of troops to the alliance. Take me as an example. I provided 5 warships for the First Fleet, and now only one is still there. I have also provided the Second Fleet with We gave 5 ships, but none of them were gone!”
Another general said: "Leader, we are grateful that you allowed the Alliance to accept us and not liquidate us for war crimes. But you also know about the assassination of General Carr in the European Theater, right? The Alliance is not liquidating us now because we still have Troops, we are afraid something will happen if we run out of troops!"
After the two generals spoke, everyone nodded. Zhuge Daozi said: "I understand. You all have difficulties and do not want to hand over military power. However, you have misunderstood two points. First, you are worried that without military power, you will be like General Karl. He was assassinated by someone who was accused of war crimes. In fact, although the person who assassinated him was indeed someone he had persecuted, the person who was able to fish in troubled waters and successfully assassinate Karl at the scene was because of my arrangement. Because he was not prepared to listen to my instructions and participate in the third meeting. The three alliance fleets want to make small moves."
"What?? You dare to kill Karl??"
Zhuge Daozi continued: "I thought that if Karl died, I would be able to knock down the mountain and shake the tiger, and make you all be more honest. I didn't expect that you still wouldn't cooperate. Then you have misunderstood the second point. I am not discussing with you, just here At this moment, our men have begun to take away the command of your troops.@*~~"
"Zhuge Daozi! Don't be too self-righteous! Everyone acquiesces in you being the leader of the new empire. They just want to use you as a shield to prevent the alliance from liquidating. If you dare to seize our military power, I will kill you right now!"
Someone jumped up from the table and took out a pistol and pointed it at Zhuge Daozi. The guards at the scene were also in a mess, aiming their guns at each other. In terms of numbers, Zhuge Daozi.
One party is at a numerical disadvantage.
At this time, the old general who was the first to speak stood up and said: "Zhuge Daozi, you are still too young. @·无码 starter~~ Do you think I don't know that you are arranging a Hongmen Banquet? Your men are taking over My army? Haha, let me tell you, I have also sent troops to secretly ambush near this base, and I have just informed them to lay siege here. There are also many people loyal to me in this base, you are so naive!"
The old general did not lie. As expected, the sound of shooting resounded inside the base. Zhuge Daozi clapped his hands and said with a smile: "As expected of the famous general who conquered the North American continent with Sasaki Musashi within a month, he is really powerful. But you also guessed the third point wrong. I am not here myself. The Moore Chamber of Commerce gave me The latest stereoscopic projection device, I just want to test it this time, along with my new toy. Goodbye, everyone!"
The general who pointed his gun at Zhuge Daozi quickly shot him twice, but the bullet passed through Zhuge Daozi's "body", and then "he" disappeared. Only then did everyone discover that several projectors were hiddenly installed on the chandeliers on the roof of the hall. The guards responsible for protecting Zhuge Daozi looked at each other. They did not expect that Zhuge Daozi would suddenly disappear and surrendered one after another.
"I couldn't tell it was a projection just now..."
"What did he mean about testing new toys?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a continuous strong light suddenly came from the window of the base, and everyone present covered their eyes. The old general covered his eyes, contacted his troops outside the base and asked: "Hey, what's going on? Where did this strong light come from??"
"Dragon, it's a dragon!"
"What? What did you say??"
The old general did not answer after hearing it. A second later, he and the entire base were burned into gas by a laser cannon.
