At 10 a.m. on August 26, 2552, after three days of hiding underground, the steel gate on the outermost layer of the three-defense fortress on the second floor of the ONI headquarters was finally slowly opened.

Then, after the seven members of the Noble team rushed out one after another, the door was once again quickly closed from the inside and completely locked! Obviously, except for Anne and a few other members of the Noble team, none of the refugees and the remnants of the UNSC soldiers chose to run out at such a time.

That's because, even if the bombing of the Star Alliance has ended now, the outside is not suitable for the survival of life in a short period of time, after all, they are not like the members of the Noble team, who have the kind of Thor's hammer power assault armor with the ability of 'three defenses'!

‘……’

'Alas! ’

'Look, crown jewel, voluntary pride, this new Alexandria is now completely finished......

'Perhaps, the entire Zhiyuan Star is almost finished now, right?! ’

Looking at the firelight, thick smoke, and the silent new Alexandria that has completely turned into ruins, looking at the dull dark red sky, and the other people know that the new Alexandria is now the same as the star cities that were bombed earlier, after the plasma bombardment of the Star Alliance and the complete vitrification of the surface of the city, although many of the solid buildings in the city are still standing, but, in a short time, I'm afraid it's no longer habitable for any life.

“……”

|???? ω?? `)

"Really, you UNSC guys are really useless, you can't even beat those not very powerful aliens, it's really inferior!!"

s(?? ｀ヘ????; )ゞ

"Sure enough, those guys are really stupider than other people's bears!!"

(ˉ▽ ̄~) cut ~~

Anne didn't think there was anything difficult for the crooked stars of the Covenant to deal with, at least, if she hadn't cheated, used supernatural powers, or summoned fleets, she would have beaten them all over the ground by herself!

But look at it now, there are obviously so many UNSC fleets and soldiers, it is said that there are nearly 400 million soldiers and many ships here in Zhiyuanxing, and how many people are spicy, and in the end, they still fight like this?

（？？？ ）

(°?? °〃)

(However, Tibbs suddenly got a little confused...... The UNSC troops lost the war with the Star Alliance, and it was just those useless things for the human race themselves, what did it matter, why did some bad little master pull the matter on it again?! ）

‘……’

'Don't open your helmet, everybody! ’

Although the plasma bombing is over, the radiation index outside is still more than hundreds of roentgeniums, maybe there can be tens of thousands of roentgens in the bombing center, right? Judging by the speed at which the radiation dissipates, it will take at least a month for the refugees inside the fort to come out and move around in a limited way......

'Of course! ’

'If there had been a heavy rainstorm at this time, maybe the radiation would have dissipated a little faster, right?' ’

Major Catherine, the technical officer of Noble No. 2, immediately used her instrument to begin to detect the environment and situation outside, and then after a while, she sighed and shook her head helplessly.

Not to mention those burning, collapsed or crooked buildings, just the molten and reddish glassy floors, especially the plasma radiation left in those glass-like materials and bombed buildings, are still extremely deadly to human beings!

In fact, this environment is extremely lethal to any living thing, otherwise, it would not be so quiet outside, and even the ships and warplanes of the Star Alliance would be completely gone.

It is important to know that the normal amount of radiation in the atmosphere of Zhiyuan Star is only 0.000012 roentgen (unit per hour), and under normal circumstances, the maximum amount of radiation allowed by the normal value of the human living environment is 0.01 milliroentgen unit per hour, and now the radiation amount outside is several hundred roentgenium......

Although it was not caused by a nuclear explosion or other deadly radiation, in this environment, except for their Noble team wearing Thor's hammer power assault armor, if those ordinary refugees dared to come out without any effective protection, they would definitely be instantly destroyed by those ionizing radiation, causing them to quickly lose their vitality, or damaging the entire cell and even the entire individual to die instantly, right?

'It's terrible! ’

'Alas......'

'Everyone! It's the first time I've seen this hellish horror up close......

After sighing in a tone that he didn't know what mood he was in, Noble6 suddenly stopped talking.

As soon as he remembered that countless cities, countless colonized planets like Zhiyuan, and countless people and soldiers of the UNSC had been bombarded and died in an instant, burned into glassy matter like the surface of the planet, he felt as if his chest was instantly blocked by a large rock, and he almost felt that he was about to lose his breath.

'Huh! ’

'Let's look at it! ’

"The Battle of Zhiyuan Star is almost failing, without the gateway to the solar system of Tianyuan IV, believe me, our situation will only get worse and worse in the future, and we will see more ...... like this."

'Now, if we can survive until then?' ’

Click!

The Noble No. 4 emir forced himself to laugh miserably, and subconsciously removed his M45 pump-action 8-caliber tactical shotgun from the armory of the underground fortress from his back, and loaded it directly.

Although there was no sign of the Covenant here, he always wanted to do something, such as: hoping that at this time, a group of Covenant debris would suddenly jump out, and then let him shove the muzzle of the gun into their heads or mouths, and then pull the trigger fiercely?

But it's a pity that the environment here is too bad, at least for a short time, the people of the Star Alliance themselves will definitely not come back! Perhaps, of course, that in the future, when everything is back to normal, when the glassy ground cools, when the radiation index returns to a level where life can be normalized, they will surely come back and continue to hunt down the refugees and soldiers who escaped by hiding in the fortress below, right?

After all, they are engaged in a brutal war of genocide, and the objects that will be exterminated are these human beings, young humans from the earth who have only been out of the universe and colonized for many years......

'Humph! ’

'Alright, don't talk about it, let's get ready!' ’

'At the very least, our team is going to the bayonet base soon, and then we can slaughter the Covenant minus entrenched there?' ’

After walking to the front and seeing that there was no trace of any enemy on the ground, the damaged high-rise buildings, or in the air, even the previous Star Alliance ORS-class battleship that launched the plasma bombardment was completely gone, the captain Carter took out a signal flare with confidence, unscrewed it, and threw it flat towards the high-temperature glass in front of which there were still some embers that had not disappeared and were faintly dark red.

Soon, a cloud of blue fluorescent smoke rises in front of you, slowly rising in the hellish world dominated by dark red death tones, guiding the direction of the search and the coordinates of the landing for the helicopters in the distance, who don't know where to hide.

‘……’

‘……’

The team members suddenly stopped talking, they just waited silently, until the shadows of two flying machines, one large and one small, appeared between the broken high-rise buildings in the distance, and it was not until the two pelican transport planes and Fighting Falcon helicopters that had been deployed in advance and specially came here to pick them up flew at high speed and slowly landed on the ground that had been burned flat by the plasma bombardment of the Star Alliance, and then they walked forward in unison towards the UNSC Marines who were waving at them in the cabin.

‘……’

'That's it! Little one, it's time for us to separate, our mission is to destroy important data at the bayonet base, and you're on a mission to take orders and go to the Autumn Wind Pier to stand by......

So, do a good job, I'm optimistic about you! Perhaps, you will be our hope in the future? ’

George took a step forward, stretched out his big fist and touched the opponent's small fist, then squatted down with a smile and patted the other party's shoulder, and then carried his M247 heavy machine gun towards the Pelican transport plane that had opened the hatch.

As for the smaller Fighting Falcon helicopter parked next to it, it was apparently there to pick up a little girl who had been transferred from the Noble team for some unknown reason.

'Goodbye! Annie! ’

'Remember, when you go to the top of the universe, you have to beat up those scumbags of the Covenant well, along with our share!!" ’

'Alright, number three, you don't have to say a word! Anna, have you a nice trip? ’

'Don't worry, we'll meet again, sweet little one...... Of course, it's also possible to be in hell......'

‘……’

After George's farewell, Noble Catherine No. 2, Joon No. 3, Emile No. 4, and No. 6 walked towards the pelican transport plane, and as they walked towards the pelican transport plane, they also said goodbye to a little girl who was still standing in place and seemed to be in a bad mood.

"Hey!"

(??????.??????)????????

"You really don't want people to go with you to the bayonet base to fight the crooked stars of the Star Alliance? People are really powerful, the kind that can top several of you!! ”

o(???? ▽????) o

Obviously, Anne didn't want to obey the orders of that Rausch and go to the Autumn Wind Pier to report and stand by or something, she just wanted to fight those Covenant crooked stars with these useless uncles and sisters she knew, and teach them a hard lesson, that's all.

As for the UNSC or something...... They can't order her, especially when she's not happy, it's useless to persuade anyone!!

‘……’

'Anne......'

'It is the duty of a soldier to obey orders!' You now have your new mission, and we have our own mission that we have to complete, so go ahead and take that Fighting Falcon with the Marines over there to where you need to go? ’

'That's right! ’

I forgot to tell you...... Colonel Holland said that day: In view of your excellent flying skills, you have been assigned a Saber fighter, a roadbed launch platform and a multi-stage booster rocket system should be ready, I am afraid you need to fly into space yourself......

"It's just that I don't know when that little secret air base will be discovered by the Covenant people, so you'd better hurry?" ’

Looking at a little guy who was still reluctant to leave, and seeing that the UNSC soldiers who were staying on the Fighting Falcon helicopter were already a little impatient, Captain Carter had to persuade the other party again.

That is, this little guy who has only been trained for less than ten days, if he is replaced by another soldier, who would dare to push back and intend to refuse the order after receiving the order like the other party? Of course, this little guy also has the ability to be proud and play a little temper, after all, her record is obvious to all, and I am afraid that there is really no second one in the entire UNSC army, so what can I do if I accidentally coax it to offer?

'Yes! ’

'Annie! Go for it! The upper part of the universe is much safer than the terrestrial of Zhiyuan, really! ’

'Little one, don't mess around, we're all going to leave if you don't leave!' ’

'That's right, it won't be a big deal if the Covenant finds out! ’

'I'm telling you, the Sabre is a lot of fun, don't you want to try it?' It's a purpose-built space warplane, it's very powerful, and the last time George and I wanted to blow up that Long Night, and captured the enemy's frigate 'Fervent Prayer', maybe you, a genius pilot, really should give it a try?" ’

Seeing that Captain Carter's persuasion didn't seem to have much effect, the others, including Noble 6 and George, opened their mouths to persuade each other.

But......

Soon, a certain nasty little guy reacted, and it seemed that the sentence that Noble6 accidentally said inadvertently had an effect?

“！！”

(??????)？

"Saber fighters, ......."

=???????? (?????? *)

"Sounds like it's really fun, hey! Uncle No. 6, what kind of thing is that 'Sabre' fighter?! ”

?? (????????)??

Yes, Anne, who was originally reluctant and looked like a little daughter-in-law who had been wronged, after hearing the words of a certain Uncle No. 6, instantly forgot about the Noble team, Zhiyuanxing and the attack on the bayonet base, and quickly rushed to the front of Uncle No. 6 and asked.

'Huh? ’

'That ......'

'The Saber fighter, which is a vehicle specialized in research and used for operations in outer space, but in order to escape the gravitational pull of the planet and penetrate the atmosphere, it is generally launched from a roadbed launch platform by a multi-stage booster rocket system...... Compared with our other UNSC spacecraft and aircraft, the Sabre fighter applies the latest energy shield, as well as a variety of new technologies such as fuselage self-repair, its target recognition system can detect targets at a long distance, and can launch 4 Medusa ship or anti-aircraft missiles at a time to carry out air supremacy strikes on targets. ’

As for more...... You'll find out if you try it yourself, it's much more advanced than the Fighting Falcon helicopter you've flown anyway. ’

Noble No. 6, who shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, could only reluctantly explain to the little girl in front of him who was running up to him with great interest.

The Saber fighter is the product of the 'Sabre' project he participated in in the name of Spartan-B312 in the name of No. 6, and as a top secret of the UNSC, only a very small number of people know about the existence of the Saber fighter so far.

However, he also knew that the number of those things was scarce and expensive, and there must not be many on the Zhiyuan Star and planetary orbital platforms, and now UNSC was willing to take out one for the little girl in front of him as a means of transportation to the Autumn Wind Pier to rendezvous, which was obviously a lot of money.

“！！”

!？ (??''????)??

"Uncle Carter, Uncle George, Uncle No. 6, Sister Catherine, and all of you, goodbye, good luck, don't die at the hands of the crooked stars of the Star Alliance, they won't give you away!!"

-=???????? =?????????? (??)??

Very realistically, when she heard that there were more interesting toys waiting for her, Anne ran straight to the Fighting Falcon helicopter in front of her, which was already a little impatient.

Then, she used her rank to forcefully pull a pilot down, let the other party run into the cabin and squeeze together with the other two UNSC marines, and she sat directly in the cockpit with a big grin, and then after closing the cockpit lid, she hurriedly started the engine directly and flew high, and soon disappeared in the dim sky over the new Alexander, and I don't know where it flew.

‘……’

'That little one, what's that, isn't it?' Just now he kept saying that he wanted to help us and those who were reluctant to give us up, but look at ......'

'Hey~! ’

'Huh! Okay, let's look at the point, aren't all children like this? ’

'Also ......'

'That's it! All right! ’

'Everyone! It's time for us to go, if you're not going to wait here to be discovered by the Covenant and bear their blows?! ’

'Let's go......

'Pilot, it's time to take off!' ’

'Roger! ’

‘……’

After seeing a ruthless little girl 'fly away', the members of the Noble team greeted each other, boarded the pelican transport plane together, and then quickly left with the take-off transport plane, leaving only the blue fluorescent flare that was gradually extinguishing on the destroyed glass-like ground of New Alexandria and the dead ruins of the city.

After nearly two weeks of fierce battles between the soldiers of the UNSC and the Covenant, there was nothing left of the once prosperous new Alexandria except for the devastated walls and the hellish glassy molten earth......

————————

At 08:00 on August 27, 2552, twenty-five of the twenty-eight surviving Spartan II fighters were urgently recalled, and when these Spartans arrived at Zhiyuan Star from the only remaining colonies and battlefields of mankind, they were immediately assigned to the special forces under the fleet headquarters, and began to stand by on the UNSC's modified Emerald Bird-class cruiser 'Autumn Wind Pier'!

And this is also the reason why Anne was dispatched to the 'Autumn Wind Pier'!

After all, her record is obvious to all, and such a general maid little girl whose strength is not weaker than Spartan II at all, and even far exceeds the super soldier to some extent, such a powerful and incomparable combat power, whether it is UNSC or ONI, who gathered so many Spartan warriors together for a certain plan, it is impossible to turn a blind eye.

'They're all coming......

'Let's go! Hurry up, let's go too, don't be late. ’

"The captain hasn't arrived yet, don't worry, you won't be late......

'Hey! ’

'Huh? It's ......'

'Let's go, 058, leave her alone......'

‘……’

At this moment, the automatic door of the conference room on the 'Autumn Wind Pier' suddenly opened, and three Spartan II warriors who were also wearing Thor's hammer armor and had the numbers 117, 058, and 005 painted on them walked in.

Then, they seemed to run into a little guy, but, after just one look, they continued to walk forward, and even 058, who was puzzled, was urged forward by 117 behind her, and did not take the little guy to heart.

"Ouch!"

?? (?? ﹏??、)??

Annie, who had to wait in this boring conference room because of the order, had to stand here and doze off, and didn't provoke anyone, was suddenly touched, and then, she woke up with a spirit, and saw a guy wearing army green Thor's hammer powered assault armor and '117' on his chest walking in front of her.

“！！”

o(*｀ー??) o

"Hey! Have you ever seen the road, what a big position, why are you bumping into it? Forget about bumping into it, I don't even know how to apologize, are you polite?! ”.

ヽ(ヽ'д′)┌┛★)咚!

Then, of course, Anne, who didn't want to eat at all, stepped forward and kicked the other party's ass hatefully, allowing the metal soles of her feet to make an intimate touch on the other party's iron buttocks, which was also wearing armor, and there was a crisp 'bang' sound.

'Huh?! ’

'That ......'

'Excuse me, are you some Spartan student?' I just didn't see you......'

Actually, it wasn't him who bumped into the other party just now, but the 058 in front of him, but he didn't explain, just looked at the other party curiously.

To be honest, when he first saw the other party's appearance, John 117 subconsciously thought that the other party was a Spartan student! After all, where is the height of the other party put and it looks like a child? However, looking at the other party's military rank and number C-010, he was a little confused, not knowing what the other party was all about, and why he was still in this conference room on the Autumn Wind Pier, which was full of Spartan Phase II.

"You're the student!"

ε=(?? ˇεˇ????))) Bah!

"Don't you see? People are second lieutenant officers, why don't you, a non-commissioned officer, salute when you see the commander?! ”

o(｀^??) o Hmph!

Anne was so angry that she took off her Thor's helmet directly, revealing her blonde and blue-eyed white child's face with some baby fat, before she shouted angrily, and successfully attracted the attention of all the Spartan warriors in this battle room.

'Huh?! ’

'Are you really a second lieutenant?' But how can a child ......'

After a pause, John 117 almost failed to come back to his senses.

If it is said that it is already very abnormal for a little girl to appear on a warship, then the other party is still wearing a set of new armor of Thor's hammer that does not look worse than them at all, and he is still wearing a Magnon pistol at his waist, and he is also hanging a stuffed toy bear, and even the rank is a second lieutenant, such a little girl really makes his brain a little foggy.

(Ahem!) Dear little master, this guy's military rank is the UNSC Navy First Class Principal Major, your military rank is the second lieutenant of the UNSC Marine Corps, not to mention that you are not under the command, although your military rank is a little higher, but the other party's status is much higher than yours, so, it stands to reason that you need to go and salute the other party first, right?

(●￣(??) ￣●)

- Tibbs, who had a little knowledge of the ranks and composition of the UNSC, hastened to remind a certain wretched little girl at this time, so as not to have any embarrassing things happen later. ）

"Why?!"

(????????)????????

"He's a second lieutenant, and he's an officer! No matter how much he is a non-commissioned officer, he is also a big-headed soldier, he doesn't salute others, why should people go and salute him first?! ”

o(?? ^｀)o

Anne said directly loudly and hatefully, not giving face to a certain master chief with service number 117, and ignoring her own bear's reminder, but shouted directly in this conference room.

(Well, you were promoted to ensign, you are amazing, you just didn't say anything just now......

(lll￢?? ￢)

- Sure enough, Tibbs was really crazy, and tried to break that kind of big truth with a little girl who liked to be unreasonable or unreasonable, wasn't that idle and idle? ）

"Humph!"

o(?? ^｀)o

‘？？ ’

'Strange, little girl, how do you ......'

John 177 did not take the other party to heart, but looked at the other party again with some curiosity.

The other party's words just now made him a little embarrassed, and the other party's shouting as if talking to himself made him a little puzzled, when he was about to use the function of Thor's hammer armor to access the other party's information, to see what such a little kid was going on, and was about to say something more, the companion next to him suddenly pulled him.

'Hello Sir Anne! ’

'I'm Linda-058, this is James-005, he's our Master Chief John-117, I'm sorry, I accidentally ran into you!' ’

After grabbing John and telling the other party not to speak in a hurry, Linda-058 hurriedly saluted the little girl in front of her, and introduced the two of them to the two of them and John, who had just been misunderstood and hit each other, and almost had a conflict.

Then, while the other party was stunned for a moment, she hurriedly leaned into John's ear and whispered:

She's the little girl who single-handedly destroyed an entire valiant and cautious fleet! ’

'Didn't you just see the battle report?' When Second Lieutenant Anne Hasta, who flew a saber fighter to meet the Autumnwind Pier, once again single-handedly disabling an ORS heavy cruiser and sinking a CCS battle cruiser, why did you forget about it so quickly?! ’

Linda-058 glanced at the Master Chief with some reproach, not understanding why the other party was in conflict with such a small guy.

‘！！ ’

'That Anne Hasta is she?' It turned out to be a little girl who didn't look more than seven or eight years old?! ’

John 117's face was full of incredulity.

Although he had also seen the other party's record and was extremely impressed, he ...... He had never cared about such boring things as the other party's age and appearance, he still thought that the other party was just a second-phase warrior who was about the same as them, or a fierce female warrior of the third phase of Sparta?

'Who else could it be if it wasn't her?' ’

So, you'd better take it easy, she's said to be very cautious, and she's a better sniper than me, don't offend her, or she'll shoot you on the battlefield!!" ’

'Ahh She seemed to hear ......'

Although Linda-058 has never made a mistake in her superhuman sniping ability, she has also heard of this little girl's almost miraculous super sniping ability, and the other party's sniping level is said to be even more terrifying than what she has seen?

Therefore, this time, in addition to the soldiers of the second phase of Sparta, the other party was specially dispatched to the Autumn Wind Pier, which also made the other party a very alternative existence.

'Okay......

Nodding, Master Chief said he knew.

However, just as John-117 was about to say something to this amazing little guy, suddenly, on the podium in the conference hall, Captain Keith hurriedly walked in through the small door on the other side, and at the same time, the screen behind the other party also lit up at the same time, and the remote holographic avatar of Dr. Catherine Elizabeth Halsie appeared.

'Ladies and gentlemen! ’

'Now, be still! ’

'Please come here and sit down immediately, this mission is urgent, we don't have time for you to chat and talk here, please believe me, the battle situation on Zhiyuan is terrible, very bad! Nearly half of the people have died, most of the cities and military bases have fallen, and whether the remaining half survives or not is probably up to all of you! ’

That's why we've summoned you Spartans and gathered you super soldiers here! ’

Please be sure to hear what I am saying clearly! ’

Seeing that the Spartans quickly quieted down, and silently walked to the front of the conference room and sat down as they were told, showing extremely good discipline and rigour, Captain Keith and Dr. Catherine Elizabeth Halsie, who was meeting remotely through some kind of Forerunner's encrypted communication method, could not help but breathe a sigh of relief and increase some confidence.

Of course, a little girl who was still standing at the back of the room with her arms crossed and even looking angry was temporarily ignored by the two of them. Anyway, you can't let them worry about meeting discipline with a little girl at this time, especially a little girl who has done a super good job, can you?

Maybe you all know. ’

'Since the outbreak of the war between humanity and the Covenant on October 7, 2525 A.D., the outcome of the war in the past twenty-seven years must be known to everyone, although we have made great efforts and sacrifices, but the war situation is still developing in the worst direction, whether it is the former Far Colony or the current Near Colony Zhiyuan, their results are much the same, because the gap between us and the Covenant is very large, so big that it is beyond all of us imagination! ’

'So .......'

We all know that the day when we have been completely defeated and humanity will be completely wiped out is not far off...... To this end, for the sake of that glimmer of hope for survival, and for humanity not to be exterminated by the Covenant, we at UNSC's military intelligence unit, ONI, are determined to carry out a plan of last resort - Operation Red Flag! ’

'Below!' ’

I'd like to explain to you the details of Operation Red Flag, which was designed in June 2552 for a last-ditch effort! ’

After seeing the scarred and grim faces of the twenty-five Spartan II warriors present, Captain Keith pondered for a while, then turned to look at Dr. Halsie before he began to explain in a shaky manner:

'The plan is like this, first ......'

Captain Keith slowly told what he knew, and introduced the details of Operation Red Flag to the Spartan II soldiers present who were related to the success or failure of the operation.

First of all, the first step, UNSC needs to suppress a Star Alliance flagship-level ship!

Because of the high firepower of the enemy's flagship and the associated risks, ONI chose the Kingfisher-class 'Autumn Wind Pier' because it has been upgraded, modified and properly handled, and is probably the most effective and expensive ship in the UNSC's fleet at the moment! Its unique design makes it extremely powerful, and it is surprisingly resistant to blows, even after losing 90% of its armor, and still sailing normally?

The second step is to send a team composed of Spartans of Phase II to lead the UNSC marines to board the enemy ship, eliminate the Covenant crew on this ship, and decipher the navigation data of the Covenant flagship through the 'smart' AI carried on the armor of the new generation of Thorhammer, and find the location of the capital of the Covenant, the 'City of Fraternity'!

And this is the reason why there are 25 Spartan II gathered on the 'Autumn Wind Pier' today! As for a certain little girl, because of her amazing performance, she was specially recruited and joined this top-secret plan.

The third step is to pilot the Covenant spaceship through the 'Smart' AI and take this group of Spartan II warriors into the City of Fraternity!

The fourth and crucial step is for the Spartan warriors to infiltrate and raid the City of Fraternity, find and capture the Covenant's supreme leader, the Prophet, and force the Covenant to negotiate peace with humanity!

It was also for this operation that the 'Autumn Wind Pier', an ordinary Kingfisher-class cruiser, was fully refitted and became the strongest warship of the UNSC, and the super soldiers were summoned here.

And the first step of this plan is to find a Covenant flagship-level ship, at least a CSO or CAS-class warship, but it is very difficult to find such an Covenant ship, so ONI's initial idea was to use a human colony planet as a bait, a bait that can attract the Covenant, for example, a planet like Reach, with rich Precursor relics?

Then, use the destroyed or captured spaceship to release wind noise, seduce the arrival of the Covenant flagship, and at the same time deliberately relax or try to interfere with the planet's defenses, and after attracting the Covenant's troops close enough, send the battleship 'Autumn Wind Pier' and the shipload of the second phase of the Spartans to carry out the 'Red Flag Operation' and seize the Covenant's flagship?

In fact, at the beginning, ONI did not intend to use the important Zhiyuan Star as a bait, but after the destroyer "Iroquois" caused the exposure of Zhiyuan Star due to various reasons, ONI, who was wrong, resolutely decided to make a heavy code and directly used Zhiyuan Star as a bait to trap the Star Alliance flagship!

Anyway, Zhiyuan Star must be in a catastrophe, because they all know that none of the colonies discovered by the Star Covenant can escape the fate of destruction! This kind of thing has been confirmed long ago in the twenty-seven years of bitter war with the Star Alliance.

As a result, ONI began to secretly play tricks and try to conceal the news of the arrival of the Star Alliance fleet on Zhiyuan......

This is also the destruction of the Visgrad relay station, but ONI itself was indifferent, and when the UNSC army attacked the Vieri Valley, they also kept hiding in the sky above the planet without informing the CSO flagship, so that the army and marines who took the initiative to attack suffered heavy losses?

What's more, when the Noble team applied for a nuclear bomb, they dared to say in good conscience that all nuclear weapons were either shut down or destroyed with the ship' and other outrageous excuses? Even, it has made an 'active' effort to sabotage certain orbital defense platforms so that they cannot attack, to reassure the hidden Covenant fleet, and to allow the enemy to safely approach Zhiyuan and enter the planet's atmosphere, and carry out plasma bombardment of large cities on Zhiyuan, including Manassas, Quezon, Esztergom and New Alexandria, resulting in hundreds of millions of casualties?

‘……’

'Ahem! ’

'At that time, the arrow was on the line, and the fate of the whole human race was at stake, so there was nothing we could do ......'

At this point, Captain Keith couldn't help but sigh.

Human beings have taken the initiative to make such a huge sacrifice, and even almost lost the Tianyuan Four and Zhiyuan Star, if this operation cannot be successful, I am afraid that the fate of the entire human population will really be a bit more auspicious!

'The only pity is that although we have found the CSO flagship of the Covenant and the personnel and material preparations for Operation Red Flag have begun, you have not yet reached the Reach, and the ship was quickly destroyed by the Noble team, so we can only continue to wait until your arrival today......

"Alas......"

Captain Keith couldn't help but sigh again, because the initiator of the CSO-class aircraft carrier 'The Long Night', which blew up the enemy, a little girl who was surprised at this time was here, just behind the Spartan soldiers of the second phase!

At that time, if it weren't for the fact that the other party and the Noble team were too active, I'm afraid they would have already started their actions now, and where would they be so embarrassed and helpless to watch the UNSC's fleet and the Star Alliance's fleet fight in the universe like now, not to mention that they couldn't help, and they had to keep pulling the UNSC's hind legs in order to wait for the next opportunity to come?

'The above are the specific details of Operation Red Flag, everyone'......'

At the end of the long lecture, before Captain Keith could say anything, he was interrupted by a certain little girl who was not polite at all.

"Humph!"

（?? ╭╮?? ）

"What kind of heartless guy has made that kind of plan that is absolutely impossible to succeed? Let me know, I promise not to kill him! Promise not to stuff a nuclear bomb into his room and detonate it!! ”

ε=(?? ˇεˇ????))) Bah!

Completely ignoring the hologram of Captain Keith, the hologram of Dr. Halsie, who had not spoken, and the inexplicable glances of the twenty-five Spartan II soldiers looking at her in surprise, Anne made a death threat to ONI and some of ONI's senior staff officers who had developed the plan.

"How could that plan succeed, are they stupid?!"

s(?? ｀ヘ????; )ゞ

Yes, Anne couldn't have imagined that the humans of this world would directly sacrifice the lives of half a planet or even more people for that kind of hypothetical plan, how could anyone be more stupid than her Tiebs?!

（…… ）

(●￣(??) ￣●)

'Ah......h

'Second Lieutenant Anne, why do you have such a strong objection, and can you explain your reasons?' ’

If someone else dared to speak nonsense and demoralize such an important meeting that would determine the life and death of mankind, maybe Captain Keith would have asked the soldiers to put each other in prison!

However, given that the other party was a little girl and a guy with a brilliant record, he thought about it and decided to listen to the other party's opinion and see if there was anything that could be used to modify that plan?

"Do you know how big the CSO class Covenant Super Mothership is?"

=???????? (?????? *)

"I'll tell you! I've been to the CSO-class Covenant Super Mothership, and I've been on it for two or three days, but in the end, I haven't even been able to break through their storage area and landing zone, there are at least dozens of areas on it, hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of crooked stars, you even think that just with more than 20 people and the Marine Corps, you want to occupy such a spaceship, and don't let the enemy have too much time to react, are you really stupid or fake?! ”

=???????? (??????????????)

If it was to send these people to sabotage or bomb the enemy's mothership, then it was not said, that plan must have been a bargain, because George 6 and 5 had already succeeded at that time, and if she hadn't blown up Queen Anne first?

Therefore, she has no doubts about whether these people can infiltrate and blow up a CSO-level super mothership of the Star Alliance, but it is better to seize and capture an entire spaceship of the enemy or something, she has thought about it like that before, but in the end she still has to give up, even if they have a super 'smart' AI, that kind of thing is basically impossible, especially in the case of frontal combat!

Rather than that, it is better to go all out to defend the Zhiyuan Star and try to destroy the living force of those crooked stars of the Star Alliance!

‘……’

'That's the order!' Also our only chance, we have no other choice!! ’

Captain Keith shook his head, of course he knew that the low success rate was a bit desperate, but they were obviously more willing to carry out ONI's plan to give it a go than to let humanity be slaughtered like lambs to the slaughter! After all, if they fail, they just continue to wait for death, and there is not much difference from now, and if they succeed, even if there is only a 1 in 10,000 chance, then they have earned it!

So, he didn't want to explain too much to the little girl.

‘……’

‘……’

‘……’

The Spartan warriors did not speak, and one by one they remained motionless in their respective positions.

Because, apparently, they were more inclined to carry out that plan, and could almost understand Captain Case's deep frustration...... Some things are not as simple as a little girl imagines that they only care about the outcome of a certain battle, if they want to defeat the Star Alliance, they must use methods that ordinary people can't imagine, and they can't succeed in ways that ordinary people think are impossible.

Especially in the case of a head-on battle, they UNSC have no chance of winning at all, and they really have no other choice.

'That's it! I'm sure you've all just understood! ’

'Adjourn the meeting now. ’

'All units go back and stand by!' Always ready to act!! ’

After saying that, Captain Keith didn't give a certain little girl a chance to continue to talk nonsense and demoralize, and waved his hand directly, signaling that the Spartan warriors could go back, as for a certain little girl, just find an opportunity to have a good talk with her in private, he didn't think there was any point in continuing to discuss the feasibility of that plan here.

"You!!"

o(*｀ー??) o

Watching Captain Keith leave with a black face, and seeing the Spartan warriors quickly obey the order to leave, Anne was so angry that she almost didn't jump.

However, now she finally figured out why the battle of Zhiyuanxing was fought so badly, it turned out that some idiots had been dragging their feet and waiting and waiting for a plan that would definitely not succeed?!

（…… ）

(●￣(??) ￣●)

"Damn!"

(???? へ???? ╬)

"You deserve to be beaten so badly, you will definitely regret it!!"

（?? ╭╮?? ）

Seeing those people leave in silence one by one, so easily decided to carry out the broken plan, and seemed to continue to care about the life or death of Zhiyuanxing, Anne could only get angry with herself and planned to go out of the conference room that was already empty.

'Wait! ’

'Annie, can we talk?!' ’

Suddenly, at this time, a certain doctor on the screen, who had not spoken all this time, finally spoke.

"What are you going to do again, Obasan?!"

s (???? ˇεˇ????) ゞ

Anne was in a bad mood right now, and she was angry at the foolish idea that a leader of the enemy would stop the war, so her wording became not at all polite to a certain aunt who called out to her.

‘？？ ’

'It's strange that you still speak the language of one of Earth's ancient and near-extinct rare races?! ’

Dr. Halsie was a little shocked by Anne's sudden appearance of a rare language on Earth, because in the year 2552, very few people have studied and studied the language that will dissipate with the assimilation of the population.

"Huh? Can you understand it? ”

∑(?? △｀)？！

Now, it was Anne's turn to be taken aback.

'Of course! ’

'I'm Dr. Halsie!' In addition to the languages of the Earth, I can also understand some of the languages of the forerunners! ’

For Dr. Halsie, who specializes in Precursor ruins, mastering an additional language is not too difficult.

"Oh......"

(￢д￢。 )

"Then you shouted at the people for something?"

???? (??????????????)????????

Anne was irritated right now, because she was thinking about whether to find a chance to sneak back to Reach instead of staying here and carrying out that boring plan to capture the head of the enemy with a bunch of madmen!

Not really, I'm just curious! ’

'Really, little one, I've seen all your battle videos, all of them! Therefore, I am very interested in you, the little guy who is obviously an ordinary person, but the results of the battle surpass all the Spartan soldiers, and even exceed the total current record of all the Spartan soldiers! ’

If he could, Dr. Halsie would even want to dissect the other person to see how their bodies and brains were structured? Of course, she knew that this little guy had been targeted by the UNSC military leadership, and was still the object of key training and care, and she definitely couldn't do that.

"But I'm not interested in you at all, Obasan!"

o(?? ^')o hum!

That's a shame! ’

'Well, after a while, if I have time, can I invite you and do a detailed examination of your whole body?' Of course, I'm not talking about now, after all, I'm a little inconvenient right now......

Yes, Dr. Halsie wanted to know how the other party did all this, so a comprehensive inspection and a detailed report on the other party must be indispensable, and she wanted more than just the ones in the file that everyone could see.

But now it must not work, because she herself is waiting for someone to save her, so she can only wait for the next time, after the battle of Zhiyuanxing is over.

“……”

o(｀^??) o Hmph!

"People are not available! Goodbye Obasan! ”

o(*?? ︶?? *)o

After speaking, Anne, who felt that the other party must not be well-intentioned, no longer planned to pay attention to what the other party wanted to say, and turned around and left directly.

'Huh! ’

'Interesting! But there's no rush ...... now'

Seeing the other party's rudeness, Dr. Halsie was not angry, because she knew that she had a chance, but not now. So, after seeing the other party leave, she quickly turned off the communication as well, and patiently waited for someone to rescue her and retrieve the very important thing she was holding.
