"No, Your Highness, I think the situation is not what they imagined. ”

Krosso shook his head: "According to the results of His Majesty's investigation, in the recent battle reports of the Third War Zone, I am afraid that there are some inaccuracies. ”

"Untrue?"

Grand Commander Cattermell was in the vertical eye of his forehead, and there was already anger in it: "Are you sure? Krosso?

"I'm pretty sure you can swear by the crown on my head!"

Krosso bowed down: "They all coincidentally falsely reported the enemy's situation and exaggerated the number of fleets they encountered. If they had reported it, the Federation fleet opposite us would have been as high as 150,000 ships, not the 120,000 we observed. I think the reason for this situation is that the previous Kalonte War chief priest and others were held accountable. And then their behavior also misled the senators of the Supreme War Senate. ”

When he said this, the figure in the holographic projection fell silent, as if he had fallen into a long exam.

It wasn't until ten seconds later that he spoke again: "So how did they do it? Can we pay a little bit of two to one exchange ratio, since our generals have falsely reported the enemy's situation, then the other party's superiority in the number of fleets must not exist?" Commander Krosso, can you give me a reasonable explanation?"

Krosso replied without hesitation: "That's because they rely on mecha as a weapon of war, and the Federation Army opposite us, although it is inferior to us in terms of warships and artillery, the gap in individual war weapons is not large." They have organized a large number of elite mecha warteams, and have many A- and S-class pilots, who can completely suppress our XCOM warframes in the war. ”

In other words, the Supreme Law of War's disposition of Kalonte and the others is not fair, right?"

"Your Highness, I have no right to dispose of the Supreme Department of War Law. However, I privately think that the punishment they need to bear is indeed more than their responsibility. Kalonte and others must bear responsibility for rashly attacking under the condition that the enemy's situation is unknown. The combat power of the Federation Army in the direction of Yingzhou is indeed very strong, and it is not an opponent that we can easily defeat. ”

"Before I do that, I have to confirm if this is a way for you to hide your own incompetence and shirk responsibility,"

Catmel's gaze swept to the other people present: "Cleo Holy Division, Shasya Holy Division, and all of you, do you agree with Commander Crosso's words?"

Several people present glanced at each other, and finally the priest of the holy war, named Cleo, stood up and saluted: "Your Highness, what Commander Krosso said is generally the same as what we know. The Federation Army opposite us, although it was only a local fleet, was indeed not an opponent that could be defeated by 120,000 warships. ”

"Understood, so in your opinion, how many fleets do we need to break this line? 200,000 warships, right?"

"In fact, 200,000 warships are only the most basic requirements. ”

The tentacles on Krosso's face trembled slightly: "If you want to achieve no too many casualties, then at least more than 280,000 warships, thirty Holy Court warbands, and at least seven Holy War priests, or two of the six Grand Commanders will personally be in charge." ”

"280,000 warships, seven priests of holy war, that is to say, in your opinion, the defense force in the direction of Yingzhou is above our immediate enemy, the Wehrmacht of the Earth Federation?"

Catmel sighed: "Let's not talk about whether your estimate of the enemy is too exaggerated, but at the moment, we can't draw such strength." As for the reason, Krosso, you should understand?"

Krosso couldn't help but be silent for a while, of course he knew the reason, and he knew that the strength of such a scale could not be taken out at the moment.

After all, there are only twenty-two figures like the Holy War Priest in the entire High Court Divine Kingdom. And the War Commander, who is even more above this, is even more difficult to use.

The known X-level combat power of the Earth Federation, except for the suspected X-worthy Shenwei Gong and the white-faced Grim Reaper, are as high as fifteen, and most of them are X+-level. At present, these people have all returned one after another, giving great pressure to the High Court Divine Kingdom.

What's more, the High Court Divine Kingdom is not just an enemy of the Earth Federation.

As for the fleet, it is even more stretched at the moment. The number of warships in the High Court Divine Kingdom is as high as more than six million, and even tens of millions of warships can be levied at the limit, but the materials lost in this expedition are also massive.

Far from their homeland, all their nuclear fuel and all kinds of daily necessities for the fleet need to be carefully calculated. Unless it is in the occupied area, build enough supply factories.

However, although the Earth Federation continued to rout on the battlefield, while retreating in great strides, it implemented a near-perfect scorched earth strategy, not only destroying all the production materials in the two star fields of Cartier and Columbus, but also using the lurkers in the occupied area and the opponent's resistance army to constantly attack the High Court garrison.

In the East China Sea and the Levant Domain, the Earth Federation is building a massive fortification day and night, and is investing heavily in recruiting and marshalling new fleets.

The High Court Expeditionary Force must completely tear apart the 370,000 Federation troops in front of it within a month, and it is absolutely impossible to allow this line of defense to take shape. Otherwise, the war will inevitably develop towards a protracted war that they absolutely do not want to see.

"Your Majesty understands! But if our side really can't come up with a fleet of 200,000 ships, then in Your Majesty's opinion, it is better to maintain the status quo in the direction of Yingzhou for the time being. About 100,000 warships are enough to deter the opposite side so that it cannot threaten the flank of our main force. Wait until the Levantine line deployed by the BundesWehr is completely penetrated, and then dispatch the superior fleet to launch a general attack on Yingzhou. But—"

When Krosso said this, his expression was slightly hesitant: "Maybe Your Highness will feel that Your Majesty is crazy, but Your Majesty has had a peculiar premonition since he took office." This local force in the direction of Yingzhou is more likely to become a big problem for us. If it was possible, His Majesty even suggested that the Kingdom of God should shift the direction of its main attack and directly use Yingzhou as the breakthrough point. ”

- But of course this is impossible, although the Guangcheng Star Domain is the most populous and largest star field in the Eastern Region of the Earth Federation, and the war potential is not trivial, but after all, this is only a corner of the Earth Federation.

It is impossible for the Divine Kingdom of the High Court to waste too many resources and military strength here before the main force of the Bundeswehr.

At this time, the war commander in the image really looked puzzled.

"Does the Commander of Cross attach so much importance to this Divine Might?"

"Yes, Your Highness! I think the enemy on the other side is growing in strength all the time. I also felt that the god was planning something terrible. ”

There was a hint of helplessness in Krosso's words: "But this is probably my delusion, and I can't be sure of this myself, Your Highness, you don't care." ”

"Sensational indeed!"

After this sentence, the Cattermel War Commander in the video suddenly changed his voice: "But I want to believe that you, Krosso, the sacred spear of the High Court Divine Kingdom, must not be untargeted." Although it is true that we will not be able to draw more fleets in a short period of time. However, the third batch of expeditionary forces of the Kingdom of God has already completed preparations. In two months at most, this group of up to 180,000 ships will arrive at Cartier. The seven priests of the Holy War you want, the Council of God has prepared for you, and if there are no accidents, I will personally participate in this battle-"

Hearing this, Krosso's body trembled, and he looked at the other side with doubts, while Catermel smiled: "Don't doubt, Krosso War Commander." This is because our owner has added additional input. can support us in waging a larger war in the coming days. ”
