Honk~

The horn sounded for a long time, and the sound was a long rainbow.

A golden starship landed gracefully, and many generals immediately took off their hats and bowed in salute to greet the palace envoy who carried the imperial decree.

Among the generals, Yaze was the most excited, because he had already learned through internal channels that he had been promoted, and now that the official order was coming, how could he not be excited?

When the hatch slowly opened and the envoy in a golden robe appeared, Yaze's heart seemed to stop beating suddenly.

And when the envoy stepped forward step by step, Yaze's eyes bulged, his hair stood upside down, and the whole person seemed to be electrocuted, and he was so excited that he got carried away.

"Biography ~ Yaze, the head of the Operations Department of the Interstellar Combat Force!"

The envoy stood still and sang loudly in a long, high-pitched voice.

Yaze was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted.

Hurriedly stepping forward, Yaze was very excited to kneel on one knee, almost using all his strength, and shouted "to" loudly.

The envoy squinted at Ya Ze and shook his head slightly, his eyes revealing contempt.

Unhurriedly opening the Emperor's Decree, Qin used his Yin and Yang strange voice and read aloud: "The Emperor's Fortune, the Emperor Summons! On the occasion of the national war, when the Sixth Fleet was destroyed, I could not sleep and swear, and I swore to avenge this...... Decree Yaze, with immediate effect, assumed the post of commander-in-chief of the interstellar combat force, commanding all fleets, and must clear out the stubborn enemy as soon as possible and strengthen the prestige of our country......"

Yaze knelt down on one knee and buried his head deeply, what the envoy read, he basically didn't hear it clearly, he had already gotten the inside information, and he had already memorized all the words written on the imperial decree.

After the envoy finished reading, Ya Ze raised his arms high and shouted loudly in a very formal manner: "The minister will bow down and die with all his might!

Qin Envoy bent down without smiling, put the imperial order in Yaze's hand, and said: "Congratulations to Yaze Marshal, the promotion of the line of fire, congratulations!"

Ya Ze steadied the emperor's order with both hands, stood up, and bowed slightly. "Thank you, Lord Qin, for your congratulations, and prepare a glass of wine, please!"

Yaze said, taking a half step back and making a respectful gesture.

It is said that Hades is easy to provoke, and the little ghost is difficult.

As long as it is a person around the emperor, let alone an envoy, even if it is just a guard with a sword, it is necessary to give three points of courtesy and hospitality.

Therefore, Yaze, who had been notified in advance, prepared a banquet early, and after the envoy entered the hall, he toasted a glass and offered a small gift according to the custom.

It is said to be a 'thin gift', but in fact, it is not thin at all, and in the red red envelope, there is a full check of 500,000 yuan, which is equivalent to Yaze's salary allowance for more than a year.

When the red envelope arrived, the envoy was of course smiling and talkative.

In the most private box, Yaze invited all the generals he trusted, and everyone gathered around a large round table, serving the envoy with good wine and food, and the envoy who ate people with short mouths and short hands inevitably had to reveal some secrets.

“…… In fact, His Majesty didn't think about beheading the Duke of Dada and Duke Kanan for public display at the beginning, but what he never expected was that Duke Kanan was too arrogant and presumptuous, and he actually beat Rak to death at the gate of the palace!"

When the envoy said this, he shook his head with a disdainful look at the wine glass and sneered: "No matter how bad Luck is, no matter how big a mistake he makes, he is still the commander of the Eighth Fleet, and even if he wants to be held accountable, even if it is a death sentence, it will not be the turn of Duke Kanan to do it, right?"

"Yes, yes!" Yaze nodded one after another, respectfully picked up the wine glass, and said, "The royal family has had a series of accidents recently, which really annoys the envoy!"

"What's the trouble?

The envoy blushed, pointed his finger at Yaze, shook his head, and said, "I have drunk two more glasses today, but I can still speak clearly." I see that your promotion road is difficult and hard, and becoming this handsome man is even more accidental, and it is not easy!"

"Uh-huh, the envoy is right!" Yazawa kept nodding his head and smiling.

The envoy drank the wine in the cup, then took a long breath and said, "I will remind you one more sentence today, how long you can sit in the position of commander, the key is whether you can fight this battle for our Garan Empire and Your Majesty!"

"To tell the truth, Your Majesty is very sad about the destruction of the Sixth Fleet, you can't sleep all night, we are slaves and courtiers, can we not worry? The enemy will not be annihilated for a day, and Your Majesty will not be able to sleep and eat for a day, so you have been promoted by the line of fire, don't patronize and be happy, if you lose the battle again, you won't come back alive!

After the envoy finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass again, shook his head and tasted two sips.

Seeing Ya Ze's stunned appearance, the envoy couldn't help laughing, slapped Ya Ze's back hard, and laughed: "Don't be nervous! Come on, come on, drink two more glasses with the old man! Your wine is really good!"

"Yes, yes, yes, it's good that Lord Qin is happy!"

Yaze squeezed out a wry smile, picked up the wine glass and touched it lightly with the envoy.

The wine on the table today is the two jars of good wine that Yaze's daughter has buried in her garden since she was born, and she has to wait for her daughter's wedding day to take it out and drink, how can it be bad?

And the red envelope for the envoy is a small treasury that Ya Ze has accumulated for many years, can it not be thick?

The envoy ate well, drank beautifully, and took a lot, and of course he had no scruples when he spoke.

The luncheon of the guests and the host ended at 2 p.m.

After sending off the envoy, the drunken Ya Ze returned to the office and gave himself a sobering injection as soon as possible, which he had prepared in advance, knowing that he would definitely use it today.

After the nano-biological robot quickly spreads to the whole body through the blood vessels, it quickly decomposes and digests the alcohol, so that Yazawa just takes a nap on the desk, and soon sobers up and is no longer drunk when he pees.

Yaze, who was miraculously sober, immediately notified the adjutant to convene a combat mobilization meeting, and summoned all the remaining seven fleets together, and as for the Eighth Fleet, which had no commander Lak, the chief of staff attended on his behalf.

The meeting was scheduled for two hours later, and during the window period before that, Yaze did not have the slightest intention of wasting it, he held an internal battle situation analysis meeting of the War Department, and conducted a heated discussion on the destruction process of the 21 interstellar warships led by the Sixth Fleet Luncy, analyzed the reasons for the failure, summed up the lessons learned, and extracted actual combat experience.

Yaze, who is full of practical spirit, knows that whether he can sit firmly in his position depends on this battle, so with the help of the imperial order, he is much tougher than Ang Weike, and he does not engage in any bells and whistles inauguration, but constantly gives orders.

Combat mobilization! Troop build-up! Battleship overhaul! Material supply! Tactical discussion!

Within 48 hours of Yaze's inauguration, he issued more than 30 orders, involving dozens of departments, hundreds of starships, and tens of thousands of troops.

And with Yaze, the new commander of the interstellar combat force, so 'aggressive and full of momentum', the news of the second battle has also spread throughout the Garan Empire.

The first battle ended with the destruction of the Sixth Fleet, and many Garans blamed the defeat on Entez's defection, believing that he colluded with other civilization forces and set up an ambush, which led to the loss of 11 and 21 starships respectively, which led to the destruction of the entire Sixth Fleet.

And the reason why many Garans are so sure is because they don't know about the loss of Dakota Planet, and the dark microbes are too terrifying and powerful, so they are still the top secret, and only a few know about it.

Now the Garan Empire has launched its second campaign, gathering the most elite 1st, 2nd, and 7th fleets, and bringing the 3rd and 5th fleets as reserve combat forces, as if it is going to complete the battle.

It's a matter of success or failure!

Almost all the Garans thought they would win.

As for the reason, it's too simple......

From the 34th hour of Yaze's inauguration, the three fleets, which were the main forces of the operation, arrived one after another, and the huge star destroyers, heavy ships and other interstellar warships were as magnificent as forming a vast interstellar cloud.

It's just the main combat cluster, which gathers 12 Star Destroyers, 24 heavy ships, and 48 attack cruisers, not counting other purpose warships such as reconnaissance, supply, transportation, etc., as far as this main lineup is concerned, in the eyes of many Garans, it is strong enough to be proud of the sky.

What's more, they have also assembled two other fleets as backup forces, ready to come on as substitutes.

There are so many starships that the starry sky within a range of millions of kilometers is the majestic body of various starships, and such a large campaign operation has undoubtedly created history.

According to the imperial calendar, the last time the Garan Empire encountered an alien civilization was more than a thousand years ago, at that time they had not yet reached today's scientific and technological achievements, and at that time they did not have so many advanced and powerful interstellar warships, but even under such 'backward' conditions, they still defeated two alien civilizations one after another.

And now, their technological achievements are higher, their economies are more prosperous, their strength is stronger, they have assembled an unprecedented super starfleet, just ask the sky, who else is invincible?

Confident, Strong, Proud!

The manic Garans, they are excited to the extreme, they are hungry for war, they are hungry for victory.

This longing, which is difficult to act on words, is like a drowning man seeing hope to live, like a man in the desert who is disoriented and dying of thirst discovering an oasis.

Therefore, many Garans could not suppress the excitement in their hearts at all, and they were all looking forward to the largest imperial interstellar expedition in history.

The most excited reaction was among the fanatical war and military enthusiasts.

They not only used various astronomical observation equipment, but even ventured to fly space vehicles to observe and take pictures as close as possible to the forbidden area, and even did live webcasts, attracting countless fans and fans.

And the most rapid response is, of course, the financial industry.

As the saying goes, when a cannon goes off, there are ten thousand taels of gold.

Any military operation, even if it is just a small exercise, means a huge amount of money, and launching a large-scale interstellar combat operation like this now, gathering hundreds of major interstellar warships of various types, will bring great benefits to the military industry, equipment manufacturing industry, starship industry, etc. of the Garan Empire.

Since the day the news came out, the stocks of related companies have been rising as if they were playing chicken blood, and the stock prices have been high again and again.

Public opinion is highly concerned, and people's enthusiasm for war is like fire.

The news media's favorite thing is to chase after the wind, track hot spots, and create gimmicks, and now that the second battle is about to start, how can they ignore it?

For a while, all kinds of media tried their best, on the contrary, trying to find themes, gimmicks, and attract attention.

If the power and influence are weak, they will track and report on some unattractive topics, such as a certain family, two sons serving on the same warship to participate in the same battle, or some enterprises raising donations to support the imperial war......

Compared with these small news, it has a history of thousands of years so far, has an extraordinary influence in the field of film and television media industry, and even claims to be the first mouthpiece of the royal family, of course, the Royal Television of the Garan Empire, will not miss such big news.

April 11, 12219 in the Imperial Calendar.

The news channel of Imperial Royal Television uses the theme of "Counterattack - Second Battle" to carry out various in-depth reports around the clock, and in order to achieve the purpose of attracting audiences, the first part of the special report is to conduct on-the-spot interviews with interstellar combat units.

In order to get the best effect, and at the same time show the powerful strength of the empire, coupled with the authorization of the emperor's imperial decree of the emperor black pupil, Yaze, who had just served as the commander-in-chief, didn't care about any 'information confidentiality', and put the spaceship of the Royal Television into the star field that should be strictly forbidden to sail, and let them use various photographic equipment and equipment to shoot from various angles.

Therefore, in the opening report, the TV station used a variety of means to present the powerful lineup of the Imperial Interstellar Expeditionary Fleet to hundreds of billions of Garans.

Under the super wide-angle lens, in the vast and bright starry sky, the majestic and majestic interstellar warships are presented in the picture one by one, among which the mighty and powerful star destroyers are even given ultra-clear close-ups, and the shipboard weapons are displayed in force, and many viewers are applauding and bursting with self-confidence.

In the second part, the interview team went deep into the space home port base and conducted interviews on the site of the training on warship maintenance, material loading, and personnel crisis damage management.

Facing the camera, whether it is the commander or the ordinary crew, of course, they are very positive, they are confident and high-spirited, they all say that this is a battle to win, they will blow the enemy's warship into powder, will crush the enemy's bones and ashes, and will make the Garan Empire famous.

As the commander-in-chief of this expedition, he has won the trust of His Majesty, no matter how busy he is, of course, he has to take the time to come out for an interview, and he has to show the fighting spirit and belief of 'victory', and his words and deeds must have a contempt for the enemy and an invincible momentum.

But in fact, although he has gathered heavy troops and has the support of the entire empire, Yaze, as a 'doer', is very pragmatic, and he is not arrogant or arrogant.

He knew very well that behind the seemingly powerful interstellar combat forces, in fact, it was just the appearance.

The gathering of huge interstellar warships is indeed magnificent and the scene is moving, but can the crew of these warships really give full play to their due combat power? Are these warships really in the best condition? No matter how high the combat level of a single warship is, what kind of level will the large formation of multiple warships reach in group operations?

It is said that 'knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will win all battles', but Ya Ze not only does not know the enemy, but he also does not know much about the situation of his own fleet.

Therefore, in the interview, the host asked with a smile about this battle, how much chance he had of winning, Yaze of course was unwillingly excited, and said that he would win 100%, but when he said this, the real answer in his heart was actually only fifty percent.

Win or lose.

This is indeed a very simple probability of five to five, but it is easy to fail, but success is often not so easy.

In particular, all kinds of reports are overwhelming, and all kinds of news are flying all over the sky.

Yaze couldn't count how much information had leaked, and he couldn't control the fleet to keep it strictly secret.

Those damned Imperial journalists, always trying to dig up more information, more insiders, are completely unaware that the enemy is likely to sort out the details of the expeditionary fleet by collecting their news reports.

Of course, the interviews of media reporters are just very simple to create gimmicks and attract attention, and the enthusiasm of those military and war enthusiasts is the most terrifying.

After obtaining photos, videos, and other materials, many of them use their expertise, show off their knowledge and observations, and conduct various 'proto-basic' analyses.

They analyze the performance of the warship, attack and defense, weapons and equipment, etc., and they even deduce various tactical battle possibilities, and these things are all unreservedly posted on the Internet in various posts, tweets, etc.

Are they seeking money?

No! Not really!

These are full of all kinds of analysis, maybe very professional, maybe also very nonsense, can cause some fans to discuss fiercely, hype, crazy reposts, etc., for them, even if they don't make a dime, they are very excited, they feel that they are experts, they are bulls, they are omniscient gods, fans should bow down.

But they didn't know that these seemingly chaotic pieces of information and materials had inadvertently leaked the secrets of the Imperial Interstellar Expeditionary Fleet.

Qin Tian, who had been preparing for the second battle, had been preparing since the moment he eliminated the Sixth Fleet, and had always paid close attention to every move in the Garan Empire.

Therefore, these news reports, online remarks, etc., are simply high-value information that Qin Tian has 'picked up for nothing'.

What made Qin Tian even more excited was that Starfleet left the port on April 15 to conduct a tactical synthesis exercise, and there were even fanatical military fans, who used precision shooting instruments to secretly record many details from departure, assembly, ferrying, return, etc., and also recorded a lot of communication frequencies, codes, voiceprint magnetic signal characteristics, and so on.

I don't know what to do, in order to make fans think that he is very good, he actually posted these very confidential things on the Internet, which made countless Jialan people look energetic, and at the same time, it also made Qin Tianru get a treasure, and quickly analyzed and recorded it.

And with the passage of time, this kind of 'spy in the people' thing has not stopped, after all, this second battle involving hundreds of billions of people in the Garan Empire is really too large in scale and too much impact.

And so.

At midnight on April 30, Jialan Empire time, when Yaze led the interstellar expeditionary fleet to officially set out for the expedition, Qin Tian didn't need to send an intelligence reconnaissance ship to collect intelligence at all, and the fanatical military fans inside the Jialan Empire had already poked out the news.

What's more, the observation data on the civilian interstellar ships were directly posted on the Internet, informing the entire empire of the fleet's course, speed, number of ships, etc., which attracted the cheers of countless Jialan, and also made Qin Tian effortlessly grasp the whereabouts of the enemy fleet, making final preparations for the upcoming second interstellar war......
