"What does Shu Muqing think is the current situation of our Imperial Army?"

After only Suzaku was left in the meeting, Shonazel asked softly.

"Our army was in a strategic and military superiority, but the commander of the EU Sixth Army took extreme resistance measures and dragged the situation of the war in the direction of erosion."

"General Balklay is a man of both wisdom and courage, and I can't say that I can do it better than him if I were in the same position as him. It's a pity that after the end of this battle, no matter what the result is, his political and military career can be regarded as coming to an end. ”

"Your Highness Shunazel, you are too humble." Suzaku said unexpectedly.

Although there is a lot of modesty in Schunazel's words, most of them are true.

Although he can come up with a more cold-blooded and efficient battle plan than General Balklai, in the context of the EU, even if he wins in the end, Honazel's plan will only end up with the same fate as General Barklai.

As a soldier of the democratic republican system, Admiral Balklay interfered in the internal affairs of the republic without authorization, which was a taboo for all politicians. What's more, Admiral Balklai's measures to make cities that have no means of defense declare no resistance and neutrality are even more disgusting to the EU's top brass. The right to declare neutrality to remote regions already resentful of the central republican was tantamount to a public recognition of the independence of those regions.

"Alright, now back to business." Shonazel waved his hand at Suzaku.

"General Balklai's current tactics are to rely on the advantage of his familiarity with the terrain and geography, relying on the depth of space in the entire three Baltic states, and to conduct a mobile defensive war with highly mobile troops. This is quite a disadvantage for us who are deep into enemy territory and have long supply lines. But "

Saying this, Honazel showed a faint smile.

"The larger the mobile force, the more huge the need for supplies. Food and water may still be collected on the spot, but weapons, ammunition, energy boxes, repair parts, and medical supplies cannot be met by one city or one or two strongholds. Therefore, there are only two ways for the mobile units of the Sixth Army to get enough supplies. The first is to disperse the troops and concentrate the troops in a certain area according to the needs of the battle. ”

"However, our Imperial Army has absolute superiority in military strength. If General Balklay really wanted to do this, he would be making the mistake of dispersing his forces. Suzaku thought about it and shook his head in denial.

Once the troops were dispersed, it was not easy to assemble them quickly, which obviously did not meet the needs of the movement operations adopted by Barklai.

"That's right." Schunazel was not dissatisfied with Suzaku's rebuttal, "Then, General Balklay's remaining option is to rely on the supplies obtained from the rear. ”

"However, the feasibility and risk of such a method are too great" Suzaku didn't finish his words, and he seemed to be stunned as if he thought of something.

"Is it at sea!?"

Although the air transport is concealed and fast, the number of carrier aircraft required for air transportation is too large for an army group, and the movement of a single supply can attract all the imperial armies. Ground transportation is also huge, and it will also cause transportation difficulties in some terrain environments. But only in the Baltic Sea, where this sea control is completely in the hands of the EU, the transport ships can easily hide from the eyes of the Imperial Army. If necessary, it can also forcibly dock at certain points with the support of the Baltic Fleet.

"That's right." Schunezel will point to the map of the Baltic Sea.

"Depending on where Balclay is fighting, how fierce the battle is, and where the ships are within a braking radius of the coast, we can easily spot their supply points if we throw one more decoy."

"So, does Your Highness need me to cut off their supply lines?" With all that said, Suzaku could naturally guess what Shunazel had come to find him for.

"Yes." Shunazer nodded.

"This task sounds simple, but it is very dangerous to implement. You are a Knight of the Round Table directly under His Majesty the Emperor, and you can choose not to receive it"

Cutting off the enemy's supply line is tantamount to letting Suzaku penetrate deep into the enemy's position alone, and even if the Sixth Army lacks supplies at that time, it will not even be able to deal with a small number of enemy troops.

"I accept." Suzaku chose to accept this task without hesitation.

"Our army will try to contain Barclay's troops in the front as much as possible, so as to form a frontal battle situation, and maximize the consumption of the opponent's troops, weapons and ammunition, so that it can provide some help for your mission to a greater or lesser extent." Shonazel nodded in satisfaction.

"However, if the EU sends reinforcements at this time."

"Regarding this issue, I was originally worried that the EU would meet planes to send reinforcements after seeing the battle of the Baltic Sea, but now I am relieved." Shonazel's smile was tinged with mockery.

"Peace of mind?" Suzaku didn't understand why Shunazel would say that.

Tactically and strategically, at a time when the Empire is trapped in the Baltic Sea by the Sixth Army and its supply lines are endangered, it is best to strengthen support for the Sixth Army and seize the best opportunity to expel the Bunitanian Empire from the Baltic region.

"What a pity General Balkeley." Shonazel sighed regretfully.

If the Battle of the Baltic fails, it's okay to say, but if it succeeds, will these cities that have declared their independence willingly return to the arms of the EU? And Admiral Barclay, as a war hero, will inevitably be promoted and used by these cities that have declared their separation from the EU.

If Balclay is still politically savvy and has a little selfishness for his own agenda, then the collusion between the two will deal a huge blow to the EU's national polity.

Considering that even Napoleon could be guillotined with the title of dictator and enemy of the democratic republic, the EU parliamentarians would not mind following their example and inscribed Barcly's name on it. Of course, the criticism caused by such a thing as settling accounts after the autumn is too great, and the politicians of the EU disdain to do this kind of low-level black thing.

Isn't the army of Bunitania just around the corner?

The script has already been arranged. After more than ten days of fierce fighting, the Sixth Army put up a stubborn resistance in the face of the evil Imperial Army, and the commander of the Army, Balklai, was unfortunately crushed on the eve of the arrival of reinforcements. Later, EU reinforcements recovered the Baltic Sea territory, so that the fallen lands were returned to the embrace of the motherland.

Marshal Balklay was a man of noble character, who fought all his life with the noble sentiment of liberating all the countries oppressed by the empire and bringing freedom and democracy to the whole world, and can be called a model for the soldiers of our EU Republic. We will carry on the legacy of Marshal Balklay and continue to fight against all inequalities in the world.

You see, the title of national hero is in hand. I also promoted you by two levels, which is the title of marshal that has not been awarded by the Republic for most of the world~~

For our sake, even the eulogy is written, Admiral Balclair! No, it's Marshal Balklai, for the sake of everyone's face and your name, Your Excellency Marshal will be relieved of your glory.

It's a method that doesn't have any new ideas, but it's been effective since ancient times, hasn't it?

"Honestly, we're supposed to be called air thieves, right? Above. Musashi, who was standing in the middle of the platform and looking into the distance, said in a tone that seemed to be muttering to himself, but in fact he was mocking.

Outside the window, eight huge warships sailed in formation among the clouds.

"Modern pirates are even useful for helicopter gunships, and they are not called pirates!" Kamiyu retorted dissatisfiedly.

That's right, Musashi never muttered to herself, and this state of mind was put in the category of her thinking.

"A Space Fleet" Musashi's voice seemed to sigh.

"It's just one together."

Ships with a total field of more than 2 kilometers are too large, and even if they have an ECS system to conceal them, the movement of the hull in the gravity environment is much more cumbersome, so they are usually disassembled in the atmosphere and fly in formation.

"But it's also true, pirates are not a good name, so it's better to call them armed privateer fleets." Glancing at Musashi on the side, Kamiyu continued.

"So, do we have a state privateering license? Above. "Although the nature is the same, only those who have permission can be called privateer, and those who do not have permission are called pirates.

"The country? Aren't we trying to create? ”

"In other words, is it still a pirate? Above. ”

“”

After a moment of silence, Kamiyu suddenly jumped down from his seat, waved his palm, and announced loudly.

"Now I announce! The Solar System-Geosphere Outer Space Empire was established here!! ”

"Countries with less than double-digit populations, above." Musashi sighed under his breath again.

"Long-winded, anyway, it's up to me to decide outside the Earth's sphere." Kamiyu's head tilted towards him, and his nose snorted slightly.

Although there are no subjects, at this moment, the entire solar system, the space outside the Earth's atmosphere, is indeed Kamiyu's decision.

Musashi, who was about to vomit, was suddenly stunned, and then Masashi began to speak.

"The southeast direction found a fleet of 3 ships of 10,000 tons, 1 ship of 20,000 tons, and 6 ships of 1,000 to 2,000 tons. The comparison of types is more than 6 Panama-class transport ships and Elizabeth-class transport ships and escorts and destroyers of the Bunitanian Empire. ”

"Is it finally here!?" Camillo put the pirate captain's hat on his head, which he had been preparing for a long time, and then attached a prop hook to his left hand.

"The whole fleet adjusts course, the ECM prepares, the full gun door opens, and the energy is filled!" No matter how you listen to the passionate tone, it shows that the boy is having fun.

"Yes"

"It's not [yes]!" Kamiyu interrupted Musashi's reply.

"You should answer, Aye-aye· Sir. (Naval Term: Obey, Sir)"

"The energy is 100% filled, and the target is fully in range." Musashi, who ignored Kamiyu's bad taste, still bowed his head and finished his work.

"For the Solar System-Geosphere Outer Space Empire!! Fire!!!!!! ”
