245 The Second Battle of Shanhaiguan (1)
At the end of the 95th year of the federal calendar.
There was a solemn atmosphere in Shanhaiguan, and in the entire star system, more than 30 million warships were divided into one area after another, lined up in neat battle formations.
The Human Federation, the four legions of the original Shanhaiguan garrison (the early first and fourth legions, and the sixth and seventh legions that were added after the First Shanhaiguan War) and the second, third, and fifth legions led by the two legs, a total of seven legions and 1.68 million warships.
The Io Federation, the two legions originally stationed in Shanhaiguan and the 25 legions that came to support this time, a total of 27 legions and 8.1 million warships.
Finally, there is the coalition of 169 affiliated civilizations, with a total of 87 legions and 26.1 million warships.
Today, the number of defenders in the entire Shanhaiguan has reached 35.88 million warships, and this is not just a large number, these warships are all composed of quasi-fourth-level civilization and fourth-level civilization warships, and the proportion of fourth-level civilization warships has reached more than 80%.
With such strength, even if it is a head-on confrontation with the Babawi Empire, it will not be false at all, but Lin Fan still said that the Federation can't afford to die, and it will choose to be tough if there is a hole in the brain.
In the center of these battleship groups, there is a circular creation that is obviously full of mechanical feeling, this is the first battle star just produced by the Federation, named Mars, including all future battle stars will be named after the famous planet names of the Federation!
Speaking of Battle Stars, many people will be confused with Strongholds, but in fact, the difference between the two is quite large.
The most obvious difference is that strongholds are stationary, while Warstars can be moved, even jumped.
Generally speaking, in the galaxy, only fifth-level civilizations have battle stars, although some fourth-level civilizations also have battle stars, but they are not battle stars in the real sense after all, because they can't make jumps!
If you want to make such a behemoth as a battle star jump, it is a major test in terms of both leap technology and energy technology.
Therefore, a fourth-level civilization can only create a movable fortress that cannot get out of the star system at most, and strictly speaking, it cannot be called a battle star.
And humans are different? After acquiring a large number of Hitrian Empire's Level 5 civilization technology? And after eating it thoroughly, what can be said about today's federation? Already one foot in the door of a fifth-level civilization? It's just one foot in the door.
The reason why the speed is so fast is mainly due to the brain domain development technology given by Lin Fan at the beginning? It makes human scientists seem to be hanging up one by one.
You know, the development of the brain domain of living beings in the galaxy? Is it true that quite a few civilizations are working on it? However, no civilization has achieved real results so far, and human beings can be said to be unique in this regard, if this technology is known by the four major alliances? Believe it or not, they will stop fighting galactic wars right away? Instead, they all rushed to the Orion arm to grab the technology!
Basically, it can be said that if there is no such technology, then the fifth-level civilization is the limit of ordinary races, and there is basically no possibility of further promotion, unless it is some special race? Born with a very high IQ and a very high rate of brain development, it is possible to continue to move forward in science and technology.
After all? All kinds of technologies starting from the sixth level of civilization, for ordinary races? It is simply an incomprehensible existence!
In short, for a race? Don't have a corresponding IQ? Don't have a matching rate of brain development? That fifth-level civilization is the ceiling, and even those who can reach the peak of fifth-level civilization are rare.
This is the reason why in the tens of thousands of years that have been recorded in the galaxy, there has not been a sixth-level civilization.
At this moment, in the Mars battle star, in a huge conference room, a pre-war meeting is being held in the form of a virtual meeting.
Lin Fan and Liang Xingchen sat together at the head, and below were the commanders of the author's 122 legions.
"Everyone is here, so let's get started!"
Liang Xingchen said after glancing around.
"First of all, I'll read the order of the Federation Starfleet!"
"In view of the fact that the 100 legions of the Babawi Empire are about to invade Shanhaiguan, the commander-in-chief of the Shanhaiguan Theater, the two-star general Lin Fan, is now appointed as the commander-in-chief of this operation, and General Liang Xingchen is the deputy commander-in-chief! Federation Starfleet Headquarters, November 5, 95 CE. ”
After Liang Xingchen read this order, many people showed surprised expressions.
It's not that some people think that Lin Fan's ability is inferior to Liang Xingchen, but in terms of military rank, Lin Fan is a two-star general, and Liang Xingchen is a five-star general!
Generally speaking, it will definitely be Liang Xingchen as the commander-in-chief, and Lin Fan as the deputy commander-in-chief.
In fact, for this matter, the federal top level also held a special meeting to discuss it, and only then did it come to such a conclusion.
After all, Shanhaiguan was originally Lin Fan's defense area, and the fleet led by Liang Xingchen was only supported in the past, if Liang Xingchen grabbed Lin Fan's position as soon as he arrived, it would really not be good-looking.
Besides, isn't it appropriate to start talking about seniority now? Have you forgotten the seniority faction that everyone banned together? As a result, he just kicked out the seniority faction, but he became a seniority faction? It's not a joke!
In the end, when Lin Zhen asked Liang Xingchen what he thought, he also shook his head, saying that he didn't want to be the commander-in-chief!
For Liang Xingchen, Lin Fan is the person he identifies with, and his command talent is definitely not below him, or even stronger than himself!
Otherwise, if Lin Fan was really an incapable commander, Liang Xingchen would definitely directly snatch his position as commander.
And the most important thing is that if he robs his son-in-law's position, can his daughter give her a good look?
Therefore, in the end, everyone unanimously agreed that Lin Fan would serve as the commander-in-chief of the campaign, and Liang Xingchen would temporarily serve as the deputy commander-in-chief.
In the conference room, many people were surprised, but it was only a surprise, not that there was any opinion on this order.
After all, whether it is Liang Xingchen or Lin Fan, these two people are the military gods of the Federation, and anyone who is the commander-in-chief is absolutely convinced.
Moreover, for the new officers and soldiers who have joined the Federation Fleet in the past few decades, Lin Fan's fame is actually even louder than Liang Xingchen.
You must know that these people first graduated from various military academies, and then one of them also entered the Xingchen Military Academy for further study, and the compulsory courses of the junior military academy, the formation is varied, and the compulsory courses of the senior military academy, the formation is ever-changing, but they are all written by Lin Fan himself, and his name is directly printed on the textbook.
It can be said that the Federation soldiers under the age of 50 can not know Liang Xingchen, but there is absolutely no one who does not know Lin Fan.
Seeing the legion commanders below, only some of them showed a hint of surprise, and none of them showed dissatisfaction, Liang Xingchen also nodded with satisfaction and continued.
"Then, Admiral Lin Fan will preside over this combat meeting now!"
...
Seven days later.
Within the Star Road, 30 million of the Babawi Empire's main warships are sailing through it.
At this moment, its forward fleet was only ten minutes away from Veras.
