Chapter 217: And comrades-in-arms and brothers
A good-natured chuckle rang out in the Realistic Viewing Hall.
The people who can sit in the current position will naturally not be small, although the two masters of the 2nd Fleet are so embarrassed that they may even be defeated by two small soldiers, if it is spread out, the top of the entire fleet may be disgraced.
However, for all the officers and men of the 2nd Fleet, who have always been arrogant, this may still be an opportunity to recognize themselves and change themselves. No amount of failure in training is terrible, what is terrible is on the battlefield. One failure may never have the opportunity to withstand a second failure.
Among these senior officers here, none of them will be dissatisfied with Tang Lang and Lao Bang, the former who performed amazingly may not have a chance to get it now, but it does not mean that they will not have it in the future, and the latter, who shows great potential, has already been booked by the 2nd Fleet. Just by looking at Vice Admiral Qin Luochuan's extremely dangerous battlefield, he has to take time out to watch this mecha challenge in the battle net, and you can know that he attaches great importance to the fleet's urgent need for veterans in actual combat.
They even believed that the order to requisition some of them into the 2nd Fleet had been placed on the desk of Admiral Sun Hong, the chief of military affairs, before those men arrived at the administrative star. As for a lieutenant general commander who was leading the confrontation between the main fleet of the Federation and the two fleets of Jiepeng, but did not retreat at all, almost no one could refuse his "small" request, not even Admiral Tang Yunsheng, commander of the Southwest Military Region.
As the first fleet commander in a hundred years to lead the Federation's main fleet to rush to the border and brazenly fire to wipe out all the starships of other countries in the so-called "buffer" zone, and put on a tough posture to maintain the Federation's territory even in a battle, Vice Admiral Qin Luochuan's reputation will leap to the top of the top ten fleet commanders after this battle.
Only those who are deeply versed in military affairs will know that it seems that dozens of starships in the whole fleet are majestic, and pursuing several Jeppen starships in an almost crushing posture is just a game of eagles catching chickens, but in fact, a resolute enough mentality is the main reason why a few Jeppen starships will finally remain in the third star field.
The starship can travel tens of thousands of kilometers at a high speed, and the slightest hesitation of the fleet commander who is hundreds of light-years away from the supreme command of the Federation will allow the enemy to escape far back to its borders. That kind of ending will only make the Southwest Federation a laughing stock for the entire starry sky.
However, the decision to open fire when the target is found is not so easy, even though the 2nd Fleet has been authorized by the Supreme People's Assembly of the Federation to fire the first shot at all invading enemies in the country. However, because of his own orders, perhaps the entire Federation will be involved in the war, and hundreds of millions or even billions of soldiers and civilians will die because of it, and the consequences of that will be, no matter whether the war is won or lost, the name of the fleet commander will be written on the starry sky of history, and the honor and disgrace are unknown.
Rather than knowing the name of honor and disgrace in history, more importantly, the 2nd Fleet will not open fire and destroy all enemy ships and then evacuate, and on the orders of the Ministry of Military Affairs, they will parade across the border and prove to the entire starry sky with the toughest posture that the Southwest Federation has the determination to defend the country's starry sky territory.
But they may face the craziest revenge from the Jeppen people.
No one dares to guarantee 100% that the Emperor Jeppen, who has no one to guess, will not go crazy because of this and start a war desperately.
Don't look at the big guys who are laughing at this moment, but a day and a half ago, the moment I watched more than a hundred starships of the two main fleets of the Jiepeng people rushing wildly, it was Colonel Zheng Ruo, the captain of the cruiser "Xin Qiji", whose face seemed to be the gentlest but was actually the most iron-blooded and strong in his bones, and his hand on the intercom of the whole ship was trembling slightly.
Whether to retreat, or to fight, or to remain silent, the lives of hundreds of thousands of officers and men of the entire 2nd Fleet are actually in the thoughts of Vice Admiral Commander Qin Luochuan. With one main fleet against the two main fleets of Jeppen, whose strength is almost the same, it is almost a certain defeat.
Retreat, no one will say that he is not, that is to preserve the strength of the Federation, and it is stupid to carry it to the death due to the huge difference in strength; War, no one will criticize him, it is the duty of any soldier to guard the territory of the Federation, even if the horse leather is shrouded and not returned, what does it matter?
He chose not to fight or retreat, even if the two sides were already close to millions of kilometers, almost reaching the distance of the guns of the main ships of both sides, similar to the ancient soldiers of the two sides standing on the border line with the cold blades of their bayonets, just need to take one more step forward to pierce the blade into the opponent's chest, the 2nd Fleet, which has already put on a combat posture, is like a silent beast, except for showing its hideous fangs, it has not retreated even a centimeter to the rear.
Just on the border of his own country, if he does not retreat, even if he knows that the opponent may shoot out thousands of death rays in the next moment, and in an instant, tens of thousands of lives will be reduced to cold cosmic dust in the brilliant light comparable to the stars in the terrifying artillery bombardment.
In the silent fleet, thousands of gunners pressed their hands on the firing buttons of energy cannons, electromagnetic cannons, and other cannons, just waiting for the order of the fleet commander, and they would try to project the maximum energy they could burst out to their opponents before the death ray came.
Thousands of mecha divisions have entered the mechs, thousands of pilots have entered the star fighters, and hundreds of thousands of various combat and auxiliary officers and soldiers have stood in their battle positions, waiting for the beginning of the battle or the arrival of deathγγγγγγ
If you fight, I will fight, and the 2nd Fleet, under the command of the Vice Admiral Commander, stands on the border with extraordinary courage and quietly waits for the approaching blade.
Until the opponent stops, the two sides enter the confrontation phase.
Only the people who are in it, while soaking up a cold sweat in their battle clothes, know how much courage they have to pay to keep standing like a pine and sitting like a clock, and what kind of pressure should their fleet commander, who has hundreds of thousands of officers and soldiers tied to their lives, bear?
It required superior wisdom, and it was not a gamble, but a rigorous analysis that the Jeppen Empire would not start a full-scale war without being fully prepared.
But that requires extraordinary courage. All the analyses are based on the courage to sacrifice oneself in the face of war, and his flagship was located from the very beginning in the central battlefield, which would be the area that would withstand the most heavy artillery fire, and there was no one.
Only a commander who dares to sacrifice himself is worthy of a soldier who dares to sacrifice for him and the starry sky behind him.
However, even if there is no real war, with Qin Luochuan's ability in the face of this crisis, he will definitely be reused by the entire federal leadership. After this incident, becoming the third admiral of the Federation as the commander of the fleet is already a sure thing.
Otherwise, the commander of the lieutenant general, who has always been cautious, would not have made a statement to his subordinate generals on such a small occasion that he would reorganize the entire 2nd Fleet and eliminate the rotten wood. He wants to carry the power of this battle to sweep away all the constraints that he once had to weigh left and right. Be prepared for the coming war in the future.
In the face of this future admiral-level fleet commander who has released a signal to strengthen the army, from the chief of military affairs to the commander of the Southwest Military Region, he will be given this face.
However, the two colonels, who were smiling profusely, obviously did not see the faint smile in the eyes of the lieutenant general who was sitting with his back to them.
It was obviously not a smile with the same thoughts as them, but the lieutenant commander knew that maybe his heavy generals would not be able to laugh soon.
The battle footage of the Shuguang military base was kept in the black box and was not declassified, but the video of Tang Lang leading Shen Chengfeng and a gang of air pirates to fight against 22 ghost cuts and a group of infantry to annihilate 4 ghost cuts was really placed in Qin Luochuan's personal brain.
But anyone who has watched those two videos will never underestimate Tang Lang, even if he is only controlling an agricultural mecha now.
In fact, the "Peacock" mecha was wrecked, risking the continuous blows of the broken ship gun, and frantically maneuvered to pounce in the direction of the trench, and the most tragic and most able to test the combat effectiveness of the mecha division was about to break out.
The Qin warrior fired two more shots in a row, although he hit the "Peacock" one after another, but the "Peacock" who was hit by the huge kinetic energy did not care about the so-called master identity in the mud and crawled forward in the mud to avoid the bad luck of being hit to the same position continuously, and the Qin warrior who had only the last bullet left stopped the meaningless shooting, silently crawled out of the trench, and was ready to fight with the upcoming "Peacock" in close combat.
The dense fog had gradually begun to dissipate, and the line of sight of the optical observer had reached nearly ten meters, and with the roar of the engine, the figure of the "Peacock" mecha, which was a little difficult to move forward in the swamp, turned from light to thick, and walked out of the dense fog to ten meters in front of the Qin warrior mecha standing in one hand.
Covered in mud and replaced by stains all over the body, the armor at the shoulders was pierced, revealing the lines and mechanical bones behind it, and the once elven elegance of the "Peacock" was gone, but the pride of the "Peacock" remained.
He didn't take off the big bow that was lost behind his back, but held the blade in one hand, and looked coldly at the Qin warrior who was quietly waiting for his arrival, and the mecha head slowly looked at the trench that was still covered by the thick fog: "Since I chose to become a very rare shooting mecha division in the 2nd Fleet, I have never been forced into the current predicament by an opponent of the same level, let alone an opponent who is two levels lower than me, I am very grateful to the two of you for letting me see the new world of battle." Believe me, in the future battlefield against the enemy, at least better than today. β
"But, I'm sorry! I'm still going to kill you! The voice of the arrow tower was still calm. Veteran, your gun is strong, but it's out of bullets. Which of your companions is stronger, but unfortunately it's only a farming-type mech, and it's not suitable for combat. β
"Brother, I don't know who gave you the confidence to say that." Lao Bang laughed and raised the gun in his hand. "You know what? The last one said this was a guy from the Jeppen Royal Special Mecha Regiment who controlled the 9th generation Ghost Cut Mecha, and the end result was that my brother and I picked up the knife and chopped it over. β
"Also, in the face of people who say that I am better than you at every turn, do you know what my chief said?" Lao Bang continued.
"How?" Arrow Tower was slightly stunned and asked.
The next moment, the old blast came up with a gun.
"My chief said that no matter who he is, even if he is the king of heaven Lao Tzu, if he wants Lao Tzu's life, then he has to do it, even if he can't do it, Lao Tzu still has comrades and brothers by his side." The sound of the old explosion was drowned out by the loud sound of the two mechs clashing in an instant.
Between the lightning and flint, the peacock holding a short blade no more than a meter long and holding a longer and stronger ship-breaking gun fought three moves in a row, but the Qin warrior could only be forced to retreat.
A terrifying long crack was left on the Qin warrior's breastplate, and although the mobility of the "Peacock" mecha was suppressed to a terrifying level, the Qin warrior also became sluggish, and the difference in the hand speed of the control mecha was undoubtedly evident at this moment. Blocking two rounds of attacks from the old explosion in a row, with only one move, the Qin warrior mecha was almost hit hard.
"Yes! He has brothers! With the sound, a pile of mud like a hill four meters away suddenly lifted up and hit the "arrow tower" that stood up all over the body.
The mud attack in the past brought different feelings.
That's really too big.
