Chapter 97

In the end, Shang Si couldn't stand it and stood up, which allowed the first company commander to avoid the fate of the public fruit. Music + Literature + Fiction

However, the other party's face was also difficult to see.

This matter can't just be left at that. After Shang Si could only play fifty boards each, he asked Doremi and the first company commander to have a technical competition.

The technical gap between the two is obvious to all, and the first company commander has been against Doleimi before, thinking that Doleimi and the two are young and inexperienced, and they only rely on the backstage. The results of this technical competition came out, and he was convinced.

After cleaning up this thorn, the engineer battalion finally carried out a smooth handover. But Shangsi's work has not been idle. He needs to set up the defense line of the Athena Fortress Star Field.

This matter is not complicated, but it is very cumbersome, after all, the fleet has just settled in the Athena Fortress, and the familiarity with this place is too low, which makes Shang Si very busy for a while. In the midst of the busyness, he received news that the logistics department had actually added a batch of equipment to the 11th Fleet.

The Eleventh Fleet is a newly formed fleet, unlike those old fleets that have a family background, and their foundation is quite thin. The arrival of this batch of equipment has at least raised the power of the weapons of the Eleventh Fleet to a higher level.

And what made Shang Si happiest was that there were stealth mines in this batch of equipment. The performance of this mine is quite good, but its price is also ridiculously high. There were only a few hundred of them, but they cost millions of federal coins. This is still the price on the market, in fact, this kind of machine mine is generally priceless, and the countries that have this technology rarely sell it, and I don't know how Monica got it.

Shang Si knew that the arrival of these weapons was actually Monica's overture to him. Some time ago, Shang Si didn't know about the boiling things in the fleet. It's just that Shang Si still thinks that this matter was not done by Monica. Whether it is the other party's character or ability, they can't do this kind of thing.

But it's all about Monica.

Shang Si's fingers unconsciously tapped on the table.

I hope that Monica can solve this matter, and he doesn't want to have internal strife before the war starts.

The garrison and training work in the fortress of Athena was carried out in an orderly manner, and due to the absence of external influence, the rumors were at least superficially quelled by the intervention of the military discipline team led by Sunne.

But Shang Si knew that this matter was not over.

In the army, if you want to establish your prestige, you still have to fight through guò. Only by fighting and winning the war can the soldiers under him be truly convinced.

Shang Si was not worried about this, at the beginning of the war, there must have been several small-scale contact battles to test the enemy's strength. This kind of skirmish, as long as there is no disparity in strength, Shang Si is sure to win it.

……

But to Shang Si's surprise, the first order he received after the start of the war turned out to be to retreat.

Shang Si called up the star map, and the information on it had been updated according to the latest intelligence.

As can be seen from the star map, the three fleets of the opposing side are heading towards the Athena Fortress.

The fortress of Athena was garrisoned only by the Eleventh Fleet.

In terms of numbers, the Eleventh Fleet is no match for the other side; In terms of equipment, it is even worse than the other party. As long as it is a person, it can be seen that the Eleventh Fleet cannot hold the fortress of Athena.

To make matters worse, the opposing fleet was huge, and if the Eleventh Fleet did not retreat in time, it could easily fall into the encirclement of the opposing side.

Shang Si stood in the battle room, his eyes staring at the star map in front of him.

He hadn't expected three fleets to attack where he was stationed. The Athena Fortress is located on the route into the Anxing Domain, but this route is not only a fortress like the Athena Fortress, and there is a more suitable Mediterranean fortress behind the Athena Fortress. This is also the reason why the Superior issued a notice for the Eleventh Fleet to be evacuated from the Athena Fortress.

The defense of the Athena fortress is too weak compared to the Mediterranean fortress, and instead of holding the Athena fortress, it is better to concentrate the forces on the Mediterranean fortress with stronger defense.

And the most important route of Anxing Province is directly garrisoned by Xiao Yi, and it is even more important to break through that defense area.

Therefore, the enemy's tactics should be to concentrate his forces to attack Xiao Yi's defense area, but now he has divided three fleets to attack Athena's fortress, is the enemy's strength rich?

"Send a reconnaissance ship to spy on the enemy fleet."

Shang Stone guò communicates, issuing the order.

In any case, the most important thing to do is to find out what is going on with the opposing fleet.

Moreover, Shang Si did not want to run away without a fight in the first battle.

Even for an old fleet with a lot of combat experience, it would be very demoralizing to flee without a fight. And even more so for the now newly formed Eleventh Fleet.

If the fleet runs away without a fight in the first battle after its establishment, it may be difficult to gather morale. In addition, there are such rumors, and it is a question of whether or not anyone will listen to the orders issued by Shang Si in the future.

……

Holographic Combat Meeting.

In the combat conference room, in addition to Shang Si, there are eleven holographic projections of figures.

Sitting in the main seat was Xiao Yi, and next to him stood an adjutant with a Wen Jiàn clip, who was bowing his head and reading a copy of the Wen Jiàn to everyone present:

"According to reliable information, the fleets that invaded the Anxing Domain this time mainly include the Third Fleet and the Fourth Fleet of the Central Army, the First Fleet to the Fourth Fleet of Foster Province, the First Fleet to the Fourth Fleet of Sequin Province, and the First Fleet to the Fifth Fleet of Sede Province...... Among them, the First Fleet of Foster Province and the Fourth and Fifth Fleets of Syd Province are marching towards the Athena Fortress......"

Shang Si listened to the information read out while thinking about the feasibility of the plan in his mind. When I heard the composition of the fleet that came to attack the Athena Fortress, I had a better grasp of that plan in my heart.

The battle plans drawn up by the command room had been issued to the commanders of the various fleets, and Shang Si opened the copy in his hand, the content had not changed, and it was still an order for the Eleventh Fleet to retreat to the Mediterranean fortress.

"Guys, is there anything else you want to say?" After arranging the battle plan, Xiao Yi, who was sitting on the main seat, said.

None of the commanders of the next fleet had any doubts, this battle plan was perfect, and they just had to act according to the plan, except for Shang Si.

"Report." Shang Si said.

Xiao Yi glanced at Shang Si, and then said, "Please speak." ”

"My subordinates believe that the mission of the Eleventh Fleet is inappropriate." Shang Si said.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and they all looked at the commander of the Eleventh Fleet, the youngest and least senior man among the all.

Someone immediately scolded him, but Xiao Yi waved his hand.

He also wanted to know what Shang Si had in mind, so he asked, "Major Shang, what is your opinion on the mission of the Eleventh Fleet?" ”

"Report, I think the Eleventh Fleet should not retreat now, but should fight around the Athena Fortress and the enemy."

"Fighting the enemy? Do you have a fleet ready and ready to fight with three times your enemies? The commander of the First Fleet said with a mocking expression.

"After all, it's a young man, too impulsive." The commander of the Second Fleet also shook his head, "It is good not to be afraid of the enemy on the battlefield, but it is also good to correctly assess the balance of strength between yourself and the enemy." ”

Xiao Yi looked at Shang Si very solemnly, he trusted Shang Si, and naturally knew that Shang Si would not say anything: "You can tell me what you think." ”

Shang Si stood up and opened the holographic star map.

"When I say fighting the enemy, I don't mean fighting a positional battle with the enemy, holding Athena to the death," Shang Si marked several locations on the star map, "but in these places, to build a defensive line and weaken the enemy's living forces layer by layer." ”

"Easy to say," said the commander of the First Fleet, "the enemy is three times as strong as yours, and the line of defense you have built is probably no different from paper in front of them." Are you sure you are using the defensive line to weaken the enemy, and not to give the enemy another battle? ”

"There are meteorite belts in the places I'm talking about," Shang Si enlarged the locations of the lines he had marked, "and these meteorite belts would give the fleet plenty of time to retreat." ”

Some fleet commanders nodded, obviously agreeing with Shao An's words. But the commander of the First Fleet still said sharply: "Aren't you afraid that the enemy will surround you when he reaches the fortress of Athena?" ”

"I will order the fleet to evacuate before it is surrounded, and place ambushes on the way to block the pursuit of the other side." Shang Si's tone was not hurried.

"I'm against it! This plan is too risky! Said the commander of the First Fleet.

Xiao Yi raised his hand to stop the other party from taking the next words. He stared at Shang Si and said sternly, "This plan is feasible, but it is also very dangerous. If you do not evacuate in time, you are likely to be surrounded and fall into a situation of total annihilation. Do you have the confidence to make this plan happen? ”

"Yes!" Shang Si cut the railway.

Xiao Yi was silent for a moment. It's not that he doesn't believe in Shang Si's ability, but this plan is much riskier than a direct retreat, and he can't help but be a little worried.

But both in terms of morale and in terms of weakening the enemy, it was clear that Shang Si's plan was more suitable.

In the end, Xiao Yi ignored the commander of the First Fleet who still wanted to oppose and gave the order directly.

"Alright, just go according to your plan."

"Yes." Shang Si stood up and raised his hand to salute Xiao Yi.

"Well, that's all for today's meeting. May you all get off to a victorious start! Xiao Yi said.

"May Marshal Wuyun prosper!"
