The Ivan galaxy is a very large "young" galaxy. Its main sequence stars are slightly younger than the sun, but their mass is three times that of the sun. This makes the planets generally have a larger mass during the formation of the galaxy. It has a gaseous planet larger than Jupiter.
After the war, the three human fleets have completed their re-formation. Among them, the fully-organized Andromeda fleet pursued the enemy ships fleeing towards the jump point, while the remaining two fleets headed towards another jump exit.
At the same time, the mothership located in the Dika system also led the remaining supply ships and wormhole generators across the star gate. As soon as the wormhole generator had passed through, the Mercury sailed out dozens of engineering spacecraft, began to merge with them, and then carried out maintenance.
Three hours later, the wormhole generator was inspected and assembled. First, a reconnaissance ship passed through, and then a brand new Xin Song-class battleship crossed the wormhole and appeared three thousand light years away from the human space base.
Immediately afterwards, the hatch of the New Song-class battleship opened, and the two landing ships began to fly towards the Mercury, which had already slowed down and waited.
…
On the Mercury, all the officers had put on brand new uniforms, and were led by eight commanders from the former enemy headquarters who had stayed here. They were waiting in the No. 1 connection hall in a dignified manner.
Following Aita's prompt, after a harsh airtight sound, the shielding layer on the dome slowly opened, and the escalator also moved over.
The next moment, a soldier wearing a general's uniform with three shining Taiyue emblem general stars hanging on his shoulders slowly appeared at the top of the stairs.
Qin Weiguo is coming.
Yang Wenzhi, who had been waiting for a long time, took a step forward and gave Qin Weiguo a military salute.
"Take a break." Qin Weiguo's serious voice sounded in the hall, and after a moment, a smile appeared on his face. He grabbed the escalator, and without any regard for "decency", he strode down quickly.
Seeing this, the other officials from Taiyue behind him had no choice but to quickly follow him down the stairs.
Qin Weiguo returned a salute to Yang Wenzhi and squeezed his arm hard, his eyes full of uncontrollable joy.
He walked along, returning salutes all the way. When all the officers in front were taken care of, he turned around and walked to the front, raising his hands in salute to everyone.
"Good job, comrades!"
…
Halko stood quietly at the end of the team with his two followers.
This is of course not that he is not qualified to stand in the first row, but that at this time, he has no reason to stand in the first row. But he didn't want to miss witnessing the first appearance of this human "War Ceremony", so after discussing with Yang Wenzhi, he stood at the back as a bystander.
"Serve the people!"
Hearing the roaring and tsunami-like response in his ears, Halko held his breath slightly.
He had heard similar reviews from human videos a long time ago, but it was only when he stood next to hundreds of people and listened to hundreds of people shouting this slogan in unison that he truly realized ...This sentence has probably been engraved in their bones.
Because, the faces of these people reveal an indescribable heroism...and enthusiasm!
At this moment, he completely believed that these human warriors around him could turn their lives into inconspicuous fireworks in the universe when necessary.
In fact, they are not afraid of death at all.
The reception ceremony did not last long, Qin Weiguo announced its dissolution, and then walked to Helke under the leadership of Yang Wenzhi and others.
Helko looked at this old man who held the strongest military power in mankind and even looked a little kind. He took a deep breath, then lowered his head slightly, put his right hand on his left chest and saluted.
"Hercules, we finally meet."
Qin Weiguo was much shorter than Haierke. Even if the other person lowered his head, he could only look up at him. However, the height difference did not affect the temperament of both parties at all. He smiled and stretched out his right hand, and the latter bent slightly and shook his hand.
"Thank you for your support in this battle."
"We are only fulfilling our obligations as allies, and our contribution is not much." Helko remembered Uda's reminder and said as humbly as possible: "The deployment of the former enemy headquarters is still beautiful, and we have learned a lot."
"Hahaha, learn from each other and make progress together - please."
Qin Weiguo let go of his hand and strode towards the tactical center passage.
…
Ten minutes later, Qin Weiguo, the command center officials he brought over, the commanders of the former enemy headquarters, and Haierke gathered in the tactical center hall. Qin Weiguo presided over it, and Yang Wenzhi made a report, and conducted the first tactical review of Operation Dawn. Review.
Of course... anyone with a discerning eye knows that such a tactical review is actually a bit of a formality. Because all the instructions for the entire battle were relayed by Aita, and the entire process was watched by the Taiyue command center, knowing all the real-time results. Moreover, Yang Wenzhi and others will hand over a detailed report within three days, which will include subjective factors such as the basis for judgment and thoughts - this form is the key to human beings growing up every time they fight a war.
The most important significance of this meeting is the arrival of Qin Weiguo, the Taiyue BOSS.
This is the first time so far that the highest military commander of mankind has left his home planet and used an artificial wormhole to come to the battlefield that had just ended and was even being pursued to personally express condolences to the soldiers on the front line.
Therefore, after Yang Wenzhi briefly reported the results of the battle, Qin Weiguo returned to the topic.
"You fought well in this battle, and it was very meaningful. No... it was very meaningful!" Qin Weiguo said while looking at Yang Wenzhi and others with emotion, with an uncontrollable smile on his lips.
Frankly speaking, the result of this battle was not only beyond his expectation, it was beyond the expectation of the entire Taiyue Command, and it was also beyond the expectations of the community bosses...even the one who finally "opened the mouth of Jincous" ", it was unexpected that "someone" chose to stand up and fully support the Space Force's initiative.
Even Ye Ming did not expect that in this kind of surprise attack, humans would only lose a dozen warships and then wipe out an entire enemy fleet! And most of the results were destroyed by battleships.
Qin Weiguo still remembers that a few hours ago, when the Auriga and Andromeda fleets completely passed through the wormhole and comfortably named the enemy ships in the most comfortable fighting posture, Ye Ming said a series of exaggerated "wtf" in the command center and uncontrollable ecstasy.
"The victory in this battle has boosted our momentum and confidence, and also announced that we have shifted from strategic defense to strategic offense! Let the enemy realize that they want to conquer mankind? Yes! But they need to use battleships to fill it! Or even take Human lives are worth the survival of the entire civilization!”
"Therefore, on behalf of Taiyue and the community, I announce that the former enemy command center and the three major fleets participating in the war will be awarded first-class collective merit!"
Yang Wenzhi took the lead in applauding.
Amidst the applause, Olaf opened his mouth again and again, wanting to speak but stopping. Qin Weiguo couldn't help but smile.
"Olav, there are also aircraft carrier fleets."
"Thank you, General Qin!"
"As for individual commendations, they will be awarded after the war is concluded."
"Then, there is the next step of strategic deployment."
Qin Weiguo stopped laughing and his expression became serious: "Everyone must remember to despise the enemy strategically, pay attention to the enemy tactically, guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and fight steadily."
"To a large extent, today's victory is due to the enemy's wrong choice in tactical response. In the next battle, we must believe that the enemy has the ability to sum up experience and lessons."
"Therefore, we must try our best to avoid similar battles again, give full play to our current advantages in firepower and coordinated attacks, and engage in numerically equal or even superior battles with the enemy in a relatively empty star field!"
As Qin Weiguo spoke, he noticed a hint of sadness on Yang Wenzhi's face, and he nodded to Yang Wenzhi: "Wen Zhi, do you have any ideas?"
"Oh, report! I'm just feeling a little emotional. The year before last, we were still discussing guerrilla warfare... Now we have the capital to engage in a head-on confrontation between large armies." Yang Wenzhi smiled and sighed: "In this battle, the more we fight, the more confident we are. ”
"Yes, the more we fight, the more confident we become." Qin Weiguo nodded with deep understanding and smiled meaningfully: "In addition to building up our confidence, we have also built up the confidence of others."
Yang Wenzhi was slightly startled, and then he glanced at Qin Weiguo - and found that not all of the people who came with Lao Qin this time were staff from the Taiyue Command Center.
Suddenly, he guessed a hypothesis - Lao Qin was Taiyue's BOSS. Although the battle was beautifully fought, he didn't rush to the front line in a hurry just a few hours after the battle ended!
Then...could it be that Lao Qin's real destination is not here?
Sure enough, Qin Weiguo said again: "This time I will only stay on the Mercury for two days before I rush to the Karatu Galaxy."
Yang Wenzhi took a quick breath. He quickly exchanged glances with several other commanders and asked tentatively: "Are... the Kerong people ready to join the war?"
Qin Weiguo did not give an accurate answer, but just smiled meaningfully.
"In short, you first establish a defense line, send high-speed reconnaissance ships to enemy systems to conduct reconnaissance and release detectors, and at the same time complete supplies as soon as possible to prepare for the next battle - if possible, we will also have a super-speed spacecraft to join the battle sequence!"
…
Three days later.
Solar system, space factory closed dock.
Under the huge dome, a silver spacecraft with extremely smooth lines and a completely different design concept from human spacecraft was docked quietly. Her cabin door is wide open, and countless engineers and robots are intensively modifying her.
She is... another spacecraft captured by humans, the Enlightenment.
After two months of analysis, humans have determined that Enlightenment and Tula are the same type of spacecraft. Not only do they have the same appearance design, but they even have the same internal structure - they just have more living supplies and space.
As a sub-light speed spacecraft, it is obviously impossible to be dissected like the Tula - human beings are not so wealthy yet!
But for such a spaceship, if you say that it can be incorporated into a fleet and used as a main ship... it's not impossible, but it's just too wasteful.
After all, this is a scientific research ship. Its main gun energy storage is not used for long-term battles, but for responding to crises.
"Wouldn't it be a waste to use it as a scout ship?"
At this time, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and Peng Xiaofei's voice also sounded at the same time.
"Don't waste it. Being a reconnaissance ship is its best use scenario at present." Ye Ming answered smoothly while striding.
Soon, he walked to the side of the Enlightenment, said hello to the engineers around him, and motioned for everyone to continue. He put his hands on his hips, looked up at the slender body of the Enlightenment, and felt a little emotional.
A month ago, he followed He Mo's advice and chose to stand up for the first time to support the military in carrying out an active attack - there is no doubt that the risk of doing so is extremely high.
Humanity is a collection of countless years, countless races, countless civilizations, and countless countries. It is no exaggeration to say that whatever is happening now, you can find corresponding experiences in human history.
And among so many experiences and lessons, the part involving the barrel of a gun has always been the most profound.
The reason why Ye Ming is able to maintain his aloof status is that, on the one hand, he is indeed the "genius" who leads human technology to explode again, and on the other hand, he maintains a good distance from the barrel of the gun.
But this time, he chose to push forward a battle that was not particularly necessary in the eyes of some people. It was similar to how humans chose Stud when they could have had a safe hand.
Fortunately, this time in stud, humans won, and they won very beautifully and completely. In one fell swoop, all the chips of one of the players were wiped out, and it might also attract other investments.
Then... in order for mankind to win forever, he can only use the resources and technology at his hands to the extreme to deal with the possible counterattack.
What is modern warfare? It's information.
The biggest reason why this raid was completely victorious, apart from the superior weapons, was that the humans knew the layout of the enemy warships clearly, but the enemy knew nothing about the movements of the human warships.
And with the end of this battle, humans also lost contact with Gloria, and could no longer know the enemy's movements.
Then... everything can only rely on human beings to detect it.
The Enlightener is currently the best reconnaissance ship - of course after modification.
"But the fuel of this spacecraft is antimatter." Peng Xiaofei walked to Ye Ming and looked up at the Enlightenment: "How much fuel does she still have? Don't run out of fuel halfway... That would be funny - we are here today Don’t you have the ability to collect antimatter yet?”
"Well, not today." Ye Ming retracted his gaze, a smile slowly rose at the corner of his mouth, and then strode towards the gangway.
Peng Xiaofei was slightly startled, and immediately realized that there was something in Ye Ming's words. He caught up with Ye Ming in a few steps and asked hurriedly: "What do you mean? What do you mean it's not available today...don't tell me that it will be available tomorrow."
"Almost - the first batch of two replicated antimatter collection ships have already rolled off the production line, and they will be loaded onto the Star Cruiser and transported to the LK galaxy tomorrow."
Ye Ming paused as he spoke: "Also, have you ever taken a vacation back to Earth?"
"No - why do you ask?"
"If you want to take a break, take a break quickly, otherwise you may be busy again."
After finishing speaking, Ye Ming grabbed the armrest and quickly boarded the ship.
According to the two prisoners' accounts, there was a local star map on the spacecraft.
He'd have to try to decipher it.
