At the Melting Mountain Hotel, Chu Jungui walked out of the bathroom, wiping the water off his body with a huge bath towel. A projection appeared next to the sofa in the living room, with a ticket spinning slowly inside. This is a ticket to the N77 star field, which will dock at the star port closest to the 7703 star system. From there, you can quickly return to Planet 4.
The trip in the red ocean was coming to an end, so Chu Jungui booked a ticket to return for the next day. With the efforts of Stormy's lawyers, any attempt to arrest Chu Jungui would be difficult, but Chu Jungui could go very calmly.
Chu Jungui walked to the living room, clicked on the image, and confirmed the itinerary. Sino had already left first and headed to the planetary port, where Red Beard was already waiting for him, ready to handle the handover.
The handover procedure was very simple. After experiencing a devastating defeat, many of Redbeard's surviving Star Thieves were tired of their Star Thief career, and many people also questioned Redbeard's commanding ability. This Star Thief has long been on the verge of collapse. Even if it is not transferred, it will not take long before it will fall apart on the spot.
According to the information provided by Red Beard, in addition to handing over the starships purchased from Lightyear, a total of 4,100 star thieves are willing to join the new star thieves group, and more than 5,000 people have left voluntarily. More than 4,000 people may sound like a lot, but in fact, there are less than 1,000 people who can actually fight. The rest are family members or civilian personnel with little fighting ability.
As a price for taking over the remaining personnel, Redbeard lowered the transfer price from 2 billion to 1.2 billion, which was actually a little less than the money she paid to buy the starship from Lightyear.
Chu Jungui changed his clothes, sat down on the seat in front of the window, and started browsing interstellar news on time. The first move has been made, and now it is time to wait for the opponent's counterattack, and the opponent will inevitably counterattack.
In the N77 star field, in the outer orbit of the 7705 galaxy, a huge mobile base floats quietly and becomes the tenth planet in the galaxy.
In the large command room on the upper level of the base center, a middle-aged general stood in front of a huge virtual porthole, looking at the dark red sun not far away.
A staff officer walked into the charge room, saluted and said: "General, this is a call back from Marshal Xu."
The middle-aged general turned around, revealing a face as cold as iron, glanced at the special light screen in the hands of his staff, and said, "Such a high level of confidentiality?"
"Top secret level." The staff officer handed over the light screen and then exited the command room.
This is the highest level of confidentiality communication method in the dynasty, and specific hardware must be used to see the corresponding information. The light screen was in the hands of the general, and after a series of identity verifications, it was successfully unlocked.
A man with a picturesque appearance appeared on the light screen. He was wearing a dynasty marshal's military uniform and had an indescribable temperament. He said unhurriedly: "General Su Jian, the follow-up operations of the Longitudinal Line Battle have been prepared and will begin soon. This battle will mobilize a total of 11 squadrons from three fleets and 6 planetary legions. All legions The list of commanders and squadron commanders has been published and is attached to this letter.
In addition, I heard that Marshal Lu Ke's age limit has been raised again, and there may be results in the near future.
The vertical line is the key strategic direction of the dynasty, so the material support for other front lines will be reduced. The situation in the N77 star field is delicate, and it is necessary to prevent the federation from opening a breakthrough here. Although the Ninth Fleet achieved brilliant results in the last battle, the Federation may not give up. Intelligence shows that the Federation is secretly gathering in the direction of the N77 star field.
I still remember that when I first entered Zhige College, Brother Su Jian was so radiant when he spoke at the entrance ceremony as the representative of the graduating class. Thirty years have passed by in a blink of an eye, and the smoke of gunfire has risen again. I am willing to fight hand in hand with my brothers in the flames of war, and jointly defend the enemy from outside the country. "
The image on the light screen disappeared, and a list appeared. The admiral looked at each name one by one, very carefully. When he reached the end of the list, he went back to the beginning and read it again. Fang whispered to himself: "Isn't there anyone named Lin?"
He was silent for a long time before putting down the light screen and reaching out to touch the three general stars on his shoulders.
Su Jian called his staff in and asked, "Is there going to be a meeting?"
"There are still 10 minutes left."
"Go over now."
After a while, Su Jian walked into the conference room. On the conference table, there was a star field map of N77. There were not many people in the conference room, there were only ten people in total, and the lowest ranking officer was a lieutenant general. All the senior officials of the Fourth Fleet stationed in the N77 star field were already in the conference room.
Su Jian sat down at the end of the long table, looked around, and said slowly: "A new war may break out at any time, and we must complete preparations as soon as possible. Everyone knows that our fourth fleet has always been a second-line fleet, and it has been the first in the past thirty years. Second-line deployment. It is undeniable that in this star field, the strength is still dominated by the Federation, so our situation is very dangerous. In addition, in the next period of time, we may not receive additional support and supplies.”
All the generals understand what this means. The dynasty has other strategic priorities, and the N77 star field is likely to be strategically defended like last time. The problem is that the combat power of the Ninth Fleet has always been recognized as the top level of the dynasty, and the last battle was even more exciting. The strength of the two fleets was able to withstand the siege of the two full fleets of the Federation. As a long-standing second-line fleet, the Fourth Fleet only has three squadrons in total, and its combat power is not much greater than the two squadrons of the Ninth Fleet. And if the Federation makes a comeback, the situation of the Fourth Fleet will indeed be worrying.
Everyone has a desire to win. These generals do not feel that they are necessarily worse than the Ninth Fleet, they are just unlucky enough to be assigned to the Fourth Fleet.
Another old general said at this time: "Our existing supplies can only support a high-intensity defensive war. If the war is prolonged, there will inevitably be a shortage of supplies. Don't the people above know this? Even if they don’t know, Lu Shuai always knows, right? When Lu Shuai comes, the situation will definitely improve. "
He looked at Su Jian with inquiring eyes, but Su Jian had no expression on his face. The admiral felt a chill in his heart and stopped talking. The thoughts of all the generals were spinning, and combined with the rumors overt and covert, they all more or less understood that Marshal Lu, the commander of the Fourth Fleet, might never appear in the Fourth Fleet again. It doesn't matter where Su Jian got the news from, and there's no need to ask.
After a moment of silence, after initially digesting this shocking information, a lieutenant general said: "If we take one month of high-intensity defensive operations as the bottom line, our supplies are far from enough, and it is necessary to establish a planetary base."
Another lieutenant general shook his head: "This star field is extremely barren. Look at the 7705 galaxy in front of us. Although there are nine planets, none of them can be developed as mineral stars. A few valuable mineral veins have been used by the Ninth Fleet in We collected almost all of them in the last war."
Su Jian frowned and said, "We can put the supplies aside for now, but in order to ensure victory, we must eliminate uncertainties in the war zone."
A general asked thoughtfully: "You mean those independent forces?"
Su Jian nodded: "Yes, they are nominally attached to the dynasty, but in fact they are in an uncontrollable state. It is not impossible to defect to the enemy. There are many such precedents in the past. This time stationing in the N77 star field is a challenge for us It is also an opportunity. As long as we can block the federal attack, everyone knows what it means. Maybe 10 years later, we will still be colleagues."
Several gray-haired old generals were very excited.
They have reached the age of retirement, and they all know what Su Jian's words are referring to. The closer it is to retirement, the more reluctant you are to leave. As for the reason why you are reluctant to leave, it is difficult to explain clearly.
A young and powerful lieutenant general frowned and said: "These independent forces are inextricably linked to the above, and there is no clear evidence that they will fight passively or betray. I am afraid it is not appropriate for us to directly attack them. , and we don’t have the corresponding authority.”
Su Jian thought for a moment and said: "That makes sense. We really need to be cautious. Let's see, there are 4 relatively large independent forces in the star field and 7 medium-sized forces. Send them a notice that according to the war act, the fleet will temporarily To requisition materials, we will send people to your doorstep in 10 days to count assets and determine the requisition plan."
"10 days?" Everyone was confused about this time interval.
Su Jian said slowly: "In this period of time, there is enough news to travel back and forth from here to the capital star. We will just wait. If there are instructions from above, we will follow the instructions. If there are no instructions, we will follow the predetermined plan."
The generals suddenly realized.
10 days is neither long nor short. If you have a good background, you can get someone to say hello twice. If you don’t have such a strong background, it may be a little too late for public relations, but it is not completely hopeless. As for those who have no background at all, there is no difference between 10 days and 100 days.
Seeing that the generals had no other agenda, Su Jian announced the end of the meeting and was the first to leave the conference room. Several generals then left, but the rest of the generals had a tacit understanding and sat still.
The door of the conference room was closed again, and an old general took the lead and said: "If there is a war this time and can be won, General Su will become Marshal Su, right?"
"You have to win the battle." A general said.
In fact, everyone knew that at the level of admiral, Su Jian's background was average, and his abilities were far from amazing. If you miss this opportunity, I'm afraid it will be like the previous two times. You originally had hope for promotion, but suddenly an immediate boss dropped in.
The old general coughed and said: "Those who are left behind are all old comrades-in-arms, and they all hope that General Su can make further progress. Let's do our homework in advance and analyze these independent forces one by one to see which one can move and which one must be the leader." Invisible. It’s better to have a plan when acting like this, the federation won’t give us much time.”
Another general also nodded and said: "Be more ruthless to those who can attack. This way, when the war is over, it will be regarded as a credit."
Everyone understood and nodded. From a dynasty's perspective, they naturally don't like vassals and independent forces.
