When the figure of the King appeared on the monitor, there was a sound of inhalation in the conference room. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info the latest cutting-edge battleship of this devil, and it has definitely entered the top ranks in the solar system. Beautiful and simple appearance, domineering and elegant structural design. The 17-kilometer high-speed battleship was quietly floating on the side of the flagship Yunshan.

The newest Yunshan in the solar system is dwarfed by the Wanwang.

"We fixed it."

"Impossible!"

Many voices shouted in unison. It's as if the captain of the fleet is talking wildly, so that a group of captains who usually don't dare to fart in front of the superiors, regardless of the feelings of the commander, directly shouted out their thoughts.

The venue was silent for a few seconds, and then the captains who jumped up in surprise all sat back down, looking at their noses and noses and mouths to make clay sculptures and wood sculptures.

"You don't seem surprised."

The gray-haired lieutenant general asked me in a friendly tone.

He didn't seem to care about the group of people who were yelling at the impossible.

I was actually quite surprised, after all, the wounds on the Wanwang were not half a star. Whether it is the crashed bow of the ship, or the main and auxiliary engines that have been hit hard, as well as the destroyed main gun system, the sparsely hit rapid gun array, or even the attitude control engine that has more than 60% of the power, none of them should be a simple problem that can be fixed in just one week.

But what is this mighty ship in front of you? Flat and simple in appearance, the light blue force field shield sometimes appears due to electromagnetic disturbances, and ripples like water ripples across the hull. No matter how you look at it, this is an intact starship.

Vice Admiral Hawke, the captain of the fleet, is a famous veteran of the Space Force, and at 70 years old, he is even older than most of us. I don't think I can be perfunctory about his kind inquiry.

Tidying up the wording a little, "It's a bit surprising, but this one in front of me, I don't think it can be called a battleship anymore." The name of the decoy ship may be more appropriate. ”

Whisper A: "Decoy ship? This man's brain hole is inevitably too big. doesn't consider practicality, and sure enough, young people are unreliable. ”

Whisper B: "Humph! I just want to be grandstanding and win a reputation for being open-minded, but how can the old general's thoughts be such a small thing that can be discerned, look at being scolded by the old man. ”

Whispering C: "I don't know if I don't know, it's not a shame to be surprised and speechless, don't be self-defeating, make a mystery in front of the old man, be careful of choking and crying." ”

These words seem to be quiet, but they are spoken at a volume that everyone can hear.

They managed to scare me, and I couldn't help but wonder if the old man really had it.

Is it that I am thinking too much, in fact, I just repaired the battleship. Or maybe it's just a partial fix. Let my rapid reaction regiment be used as an armored personnel carrier. If I don't guess correctly, not only will Lieutenant General Cook, who pinned my hopes on me, lose his face, but the key is that the status of the rapid reaction regiment in the army will decline.

Damn it, I should have thought about it before I said it.

The water that was spilled out of the words spoken, and now it's too late to regret it.

When I raised my head again, I was a little afraid to look at the old man's face. In fact, I have passed the stage of saving face, and I don't care what others think of me. The key issue is that I now represent the interests of all the generals in our regiment, including the two starships. When I thought that the fate of these nearly 800 people would be affected by my words. Perhaps the future of some people in the army will be ruined, and my heart will become more and more heavy.

Is this what Verelli calls responsibility? Although it is not my own intention to be promoted to become the commander of these people, once the relationship between superiors and subordinates is established, their fate, future, and even joys and sorrows are like heavy shackles, so that I can't even straighten my waist.

Cook stepped down from the podium. Stand in front of me. Peeked in and saw him scrutinizing me. As a last resort, I could only stand up and face him with what I thought was the most calm look.

There was a sneer behind him.

I felt even more pressure, and I almost had to say it in front of everyone, but what I said just now was a joke, and I finally held back.

But the mood can only be described as chaotic.

"Yes, it's not a great strategy, but I didn't expect it to be seen through by you all at once. Our latest national hero did not disappoint. ”

"National Hero?"

There was another commotion behind him. This time the old general showed an impatient look.

"Humph! Are my men a bunch of idiots who only know how to talk behind their backs, and don't even have the most basic judgment? If you have something to say, stand up for me and say, what do you look like in the back, are you still soldiers? ”

The venue was silent, and I finally understood that their so-called old man could scold and cry was what it meant. Although I knew it wasn't aimed at me, I was still at a loss when I stood in front of the old man. The courage and courage that have been exercised on the battlefield do not seem to be of use at this time. I felt like I was back in the days of the Volunteers.

Secretly scolding himself for being useless, how can this look bear the fate and future of 800 people.

I took a deep breath to regain my spirits, and when I looked at Cook again, I thought my eyes and state were okay.

When the old man saw me, he finally smiled a little. He patted me the shoulder and nodded at me with an isolated look.

"Very good, the hero is a teenager, this fleet battle, you have to live, and it will be your world in the future!"

I couldn't help but feel my blood boiling. There was no discordant sound behind him such as boos. Under the fierce gaze of the old man, the solemnity and solemnity of the pre-war meeting of the main fleet finally appeared in the venue.

The tactical staff of the headquarters solved the mystery, and the Wanwang was not repaired, but the surface was repaired, the armor plates were replaced, and some deformed parts were dismantled and installed.

"Among the 8 main engines of the Wanwang, 5 have a lot of problems, and the technical department judges that they cannot support normal combat, plus the main guns and the software system on the ship are all standard designs in the Proxima Centauri field, and there are compatibility problems with our galaxy, which are almost impossible to repair. In order to be able to strengthen the combat power as soon as possible, the command decided that it would be more appropriate to transform it into an interstellar infantry mothership. After removing most of the main engines, reinstalling 15 cruiser-class engines, and replacing all of the attitude control systems, the Wanwang was able to meet all the top speed requirements of an infantry mothership. ”

The mystery is solved, but a new problem has arisen, such a big guy. It can be described as extremely eye-catching on the battlefield, and it can be used to scare people, but once there is a contact war, won't it be seen by the devil? The deterrent effect is very limited at this time, and where is his battlefield value after that?

Fortunately, the tactical staff officer did not have the habits of the old general, and he immediately moved out the next step of the arrangement.

There was quite a commotion in the audience, and the biggest reaction was that of my current nominal immediate superior, Marine Commander Faisal, who slapped the table vigorously and jumped up, but bowed his head under Cook's extremely eye-catching gaze, and sat down again for a while.

I was mentally prepared for this result, after all, the deputy commander was not a false title, and he called me out when he showed the new infantry mothership, all of which vaguely pointed in a certain established direction, but I was new to the situation, and I did not understand the operation of the upper echelons of the fleet, so I did not dare to speculate.

"Senior Colonel Zhao Ping, Deputy Commander of the Marine Corps, because you have been able to fight well and have many combat exploits, and you have successfully inflicted heavy damage on the enemy's tactical detachment and captured one of the latest battleships today, and your command, judgment, and comprehensive technical and tactical capabilities displayed in the battle have been unanimously recognized by the generals of the headquarters. The current command has decided to assign half of the interstellar infantry combat strength to which the fleet belongs, except for the most basic guard strength of each ship, to the colonel to command. Your headquarters is set on the Ten Thousand Kings. The command expects that this fleet battle will be a protracted and fierce battle, and there are many capital ships, and it is expected that the two sides have a surplus of defense, and the only one who can open the situation is the interstellar infantry, so an infantry mothership and the interstellar infantry combat power with decisive impact capability are absolutely necessary. ”

At this point I understood the place of my troops in the fleet. Cook wanted to win with a strange move, and put the treasure on the Marines' broadside battle.

The tactical staff member finished his explanation, and the audience was full of discussion, at which point Cook strode towards me.

I also wanted to think about how the Command's tactical plan would challenge me and how I could make the best use of the Kings.

"What? Feeling stressed? ”

"Yes, you know, although I have some credit, there is a lot of luck in it, and I have no experience in commanding large forces, and I suddenly allocated half of the interstellar infantry to me, which made me very stressed."

"Oh! What kind of pressure do you have, will it be worse than that of me, the captain of the fleet? ”

I was flattered by Cook's special kindness to me, and his perceptual faculties told me that his different eyes were the envy and jealousy of some. I really don't know if it's good or bad, it happened so suddenly, I can only go through one step at a time.

"It's not that I'm not unconfident in my leadership, in fact I may have all kinds of problems, but my assistants, they're all first-class guys, and even have people who can see through the big picture and lead a party, so management and command itself are not what I'm worried about."

Cook looked like a grandfather looking at his grandson playing, with a playful expression, "Management and command basically cover most of the functions of your position, since none of this can worry you, what are you worried about?" ”

"Duty, sir! This is what I fear the most and worry about the most. If I add in the troops newly allocated to me, it will be more than 20,000 men at full capacity. 20,000 lives, 20,000 lives, and families that are far more than many times that. Every decision I make has the potential to put these people in what it is, affect their future and future, and put their families behind them in perhaps the most painful situation. The thought of being responsible for so many people makes me feel so stressed that I can't stand up. ”

Cook listened carefully to my reasoning, and a thoughtful look appeared on his face. He paced back and forth.

"You don't have a family, maybe I let a young man who has not even borne family responsibilities bear the burden of the fate of an army, and even an entire fleet, it is indeed a little reluctant."

"Sir! I'm not this ......."

Cook reached out to stop me from continuing. He just looked at me. When I finally mustered up the courage to look into his eyes, I noticed that his gaze was not focused on me.

"You remind me of when I was young, when I was full of spirit, and I was always afraid of this and worried about something. It seemed like a long time ago, and it seemed like yesterday. I didn't have your prudence at the time, and I made a lot of mistakes, and I was burdened with countless ...... The fate of people, when I finally have time to reflect, it is too late, I find that I must be responsible for so many people who died because of me, my life no longer belongs to me, I must do something that can be explained to the deceased, I can leave with peace of mind, to let go of all this. That's why I didn't get back down until I was so old. ”

Life no longer belongs to oneself, and it is necessary to give an account to the dead. This thought is very similar to mine, except that I am not so heavily indebted in command, but I am already involuntarily unable to survive on the road paved by the corpses of my comrades in that battle.

Looking at the gray-haired old man in front of me, I suddenly felt that we were very similar.

That's why he looked the other way at me.

......

In the end, I didn't hear any encouragement or any intuitive advice, Cook just reminded me repeatedly that life was no longer my own, and that as long as I could give an account to the deceased, there was no need to care about those responsibilities and other things.

I don't have time to think about the philosophy of life. Once the scope of the deployment was decided, there were piles of things waiting for me to complete. The re-compilation of the troops, how to establish an effective command system on the Wanwang, and the role of the Wanwang in the interstellar infantry assault tactics, etc., all need to be decided and arranged.

Even if Verelli, Jasmine, Harding, Maxim, Gru, Catherine, and some subordinate officers who could talk to each other were gathered together and authorized one by one, there were many things that could not be assigned.

According to the regulations, the battle time will be reset after 48 hours, which is also the time when the battle begins. I have to complete the integration of the troops before then. At least until now, I had no experience in reorganizing the troops, and I realized that if I could not complete the reorganization of the troops, I might not have the opportunity to go to the battlefield at all and would be directly stripped of my current position.

After all these difficulties and obstacles, I seemed to see Faisal's sinister smile.

"Humph! How could you let your old fox get your wish, I gritted my teeth and swallowed the booster, even if I didn't sleep, I couldn't let that guy succeed. ”

......

The strong ionization phenomenon caused by the sunspot explosion not only formed a beautiful aurora on the surface of the starship and dotted the places where the ship group lived, but also an interstellar dust cloud composed of fine particles had long appeared in the asteroid belt, the wreckage area, and the meteorite area, shrouding the entire battlefield area in a dusk color.

It was in this environment that the time of the battlefield time reset arrived.

Half an hour before that, the troop programming plan and the model of the tactical command and dispatch structure were also presented.

The Manwang is the top of the mobile receiving battle sub-fleet of the headquarters, and it is in his sleep to welcome the moment when the battle begins.
