Chapter 626: Bold Ideas
"Mido has fallen! Bucado has fallen! The fall of Anz Brionto! Heavy Eight Falls! Soraku has fallen! ……”
Listening to the battle reports coming back from the front line, the strategic staff officers once again changed the marks on the strategic star map to the state of fall.
Looking at the star systems on the strategic star map that were being eaten away by the enemy, the hearts of the legion leaders under the jurisdiction of the Holy Worm State were heavier than ever.
In addition to the Raid Legion, other legions of the state have also been transferred to join the battle against the native enemy.
However, the situation of the war did not improve as expected by the higher-ups of the Holy Worm State, and the enemy continued to devastate the star fields of the state, and many worlds became fallen areas.
And the most incomprehensible problems for the top brass of the legion became more and more prominent.
"How is this possible?! Why are these indigenous fleets fighting more and more? ”
"But the natives of a planet, where do they want so many people to operate warships? Even if they were to control a single battleship, it would not be possible to reach such a number of fleets! ”
Initially, the top management of the legion decided to rely on the huge volume of the war, intending to lengthen the battle line and force the enemy to be unable to take care of the overall situation, resulting in a total collapse.
This is a common strategic method used by the majority to fight the minority, and usually the minority side has two choices, one is to follow the majority side and expand the front, and the other is to sit back and watch the majority side expand the front.
The former will lead to a decrease in the combat effectiveness of the minority side, after all, the expansion of the battle front will lead to a shortage of local combat effectiveness.
In the latter case, there is a risk that a small number of people will be encircled on all sides, and once the war enters a stalemate, it is usually the side that has a lot of war resources that will eventually win.
"Could it be that they split their forces?"
"The division of forces will inevitably lead to a decrease in combat effectiveness, and in the face of the enemy's fleet with a greatly reduced strength, our fleet and garrison are still powerless, and the strength of these indigenous fleets may be comparable to that of the Supreme-class fleet......"
At the beginning, the top management of the legion was happy for a while when they knew that the enemy was expanding the battle line with them, because it meant that the enemy's local combat strength was decreasing, but whenever a local battlefield failed, they would seize this opportunity to tear the enemy's entire front apart and regain the initiative in the war.
But the problem is that the enemy's local combat forces show no signs of shrinking, at least on the side of the Holy Worm State, which is still being pressed and beaten, and has no power to fight back.
This leads to two possibilities.
The first possibility is that there are many enemies, so many as the states, so they are not afraid of expanding the battle line - but this possibility seems unrealistic on the side of the Holy Worm States, because they are fighting against the natives who only have a habitable planet, and where are there so many natives?
The second possibility is that the enemy's overall strength is very terrifying, and even if the strength is shared, it can still beat the country.
"How is this possible?! They're just a bunch of backward natives who don't even have mechs! Even if their fleet strength is strong, it is impossible to reach the level of the Supreme! ”
Without even thinking about it, some people questioned it, and the result of such speculation was unacceptable to them, if this was the case, then what else would the state fight? Kneeling and begging for mercy is probably the most pragmatic choice!
The Legion's higher-ups could not come up with a single outcome, let alone a better strategic approach, and the enemy was too unconventional.
"Auburn, you are the supreme commander of this war, and you come to tell us what to do next."
The eyes of all the legion leaders at the meeting were focused, and the conversation eventually returned to the commander of the Raiding Legion, Ao himself.
Oban did not directly explain what kind of tactics should be used, but brought up another matter.
"There is information from the royal family's side, and the Inari Huang Kingdom has also been attacked, due to the hindsight factor, the enemy's attack speed is too fast, and by the time the Inari Huang Kingdom reacts, their overall strategic deployment has tended to collapse, which can prove that the enemy in the vanguard fleet battle is only the tip of the iceberg of the enemy's entire fleet strength."
The news was a bombshell, and everyone present gasped.
"This ......"
"Fighting on two fronts, fighting is still crushing the game......"
The top brass of the legion originally thought that the enemy they were fighting now was all the forces of the natives, but this information told them that they were very wrong, and they could still be crushed in two-front combat, not to mention the strength on the frontal battlefield, just such a logistical ability, the state could only look up.
Auburn continued, "The Inari Huangguo believes that it is we who are frantically attacking them, and now, in addition to resisting the enemy's attack, is applying to the Supreme who originally secured the covenant of no war to intervene in arbitration. ”
This is another bombshell, far more sensational than the news just now, if the previous news was an atomic bomb, then the current news is a big Ivan.
"What! Applying for arbitration?! ”
"What can I do, oh my God......"
"The kingdom is coming to an end......"
The collective panic of the top leaders of the legion, if the Supreme intervenes in the arbitration, it also means that the state will be destroyed, and the power of the Supreme is unimaginably terrifying.
Someone immediately proposed.
"We should go and declare to the Supreme that it is not us who are attacking the Inari Huang Kingdom! Our holy state of Vorm cannot afford such an injustice! ”
"That's right!"
……
"Quiet !!"
Auburn slammed the table, and the eyes of the audience were once again focused on him.
"Everyone, don't be impatient, Inari Huangguo's application for Supreme Intervention in the arbitration is not an opportunity for us."
"Judging from the current situation, we alone and even with all the strength of Inari's side will not be able to contend with our current enemy, and the only way to win is to get the help of the Supreme."
"But you also know that usually the Supreme does not care about the affairs of the world, and they do not use their great power easily."
"Now that the Inari Huang Kingdom is relying on the 'tearing up of the covenant without war', it can apply to the Supreme to intervene in arbitration by force, as long as we do not clarify that it is not us who attacked Inari, the Supreme will stand on the opposite side of the enemy."
In the silent meeting, the senior leaders of the various legions quietly listened to the method of attacking and killing the commander-in-chief of the legion, and the high-ranking of the legion who did not approve of it accounted for the majority, and many people thought that the commander-in-chief of the legion was crazy.
"This is madness, Commander-in-Chief Auburn, the power of the Supreme is a terrifying devastation, what if the Supreme is destroyed along with the enemy and the state?"
"yes, this kind of combat plan is too risky."
"Auburn, you need to calm down."
