The northern capital, the middle of the South Sea.

Lead clouds hung low, and a light rain fell all night, and the ancient city was shrouded in misty rain and fog, adding a bit of heaviness and vicissitudes.

The first brother stood in front of the window and quietly looked at the rain flying outside the window.

The knock on the door broke the brief silence, and the first brother withdrew his gaze: "Please come in." ”

When the door opened, the first brother saw the person who was coming, and immediately smiled: "Minister Qiu is here, what are your instructions?" ”

Qiu Tianning smiled bitterly: "Don't look for my happiness." ”

The first brother saw that Qiu Tianning was still followed by a person, and when he turned his head, he immediately recognized it: "Yo, isn't this our Commander Huo?" Didn't you go to Beiyue Continent? When did you come back? ”

"Report chief, just got off the plane." Huo Qiang said.

"Sit down, sit down." The first brother pointed to the sofa and said.

Qiu Tianning and Huo Qiang were both frequent visitors here, and politely took off their military hats and sat down.

The first brother pressed the call button on the desk: "Send a pot of tea." With that, he walked over and sat down across from the two.

There was another knock on the door, and a young waitress walked in with a tray and placed a pot of tea and a few cups on the table.

She was about to pour the tea with a pot, but the first brother was already smiling and waving his hand: "No need, I'll do it myself." ”

The waiter smiled and stepped back, and the first brother said while pouring tea: "There are not many times when the two of you come over together, let's talk, what is the situation?" ”

After finishing speaking, the steaming tea was also poured, and the first brother put down the teapot and picked up a cup by himself, and made a gesture to Qiu Huo and the others, signaling the two of them to serve it themselves.

Qiu Tianning picked up the cup and held it in his hand: "That's the case, I came here today mainly for the asteroid belt." ”

The first brother's expression became serious: "I've heard everything, how is the Thunder Mountain?" ”

Huo Qiang's heart skipped a beat, and he glanced at Qiu Tianning.

Qiu Tianning said: "Leishan has no problem, it has successfully broken through, but the problem of the asteroid belt is much more serious than we expected. ”

The first brother put down the teacup: "It's not an accident, the building near the water gets the moon first, let's be far away from them, it's not strange that we can't grab the first move." ”

"That's true, but the aliens are bigger, far more than we expected." Qiu Tianning said, "Let's let our Commander Huo talk about the specifics." ”

Huo Qiang smiled bitterly: "Don't make fun of me." ”

"Let's talk about it." The first brother nodded at Huo Qiang.

Huo Qiang put down his cup: "According to Beiyuezhou's observations, we believe that the alien operation began last summer, shortly after the raiding fleet evacuated Jupiter. ”

He deliberately paused to see that the first brother had no intention of speaking, and then continued: "At present, we don't know the details of the aliens' actions, but there are signs that the aliens' actions are continuous and continuous, that is, they have not been idle during this time. ”

The first brother frowned and said, "How much space does it occupy?" You know? ”

"It's about an arc between 34 and 37 degrees, and the total number of alien warships is between three hundred and five hundred, and the specific number can't be determined for the time being."

"That's right...... What does the General Staff think? ”

Qiu Tianning hurriedly replied: "The original plan was to wait for the raid fleet to set sail collectively after repairing and concentrate on clearing the aliens, but the progress of the aliens is too fast, if you continue to implement the original plan, and when the fleet arrives at the asteroid belt, I am afraid that the aliens will have already gained a firm foothold, and it will be difficult to get the aliens out at that time." ”

Saying that, he sighed back: "And the aliens are basically single-ship operations, two or three ships have also been discovered, and more than four have almost never appeared, if nothing else, the aliens will maintain their current mode of action for a long time." We have a better chance of winning by concentrating our forces, but the efficiency is too poor. ”

"What? Do you want to change to a single ship as well? The first brother asked.

"It's not that we want to, but the current situation requires us to march into the asteroid belt in advance, otherwise we will be too passive when the raiding fleet is dispatched."

The first brother thought for a while and asked, "Are you sure?" ”

"There is still a grasp, Lao Huo, you can talk about it again."

"Okay." Huo Qiang agreed, "Chief, our ship-building speed is too slow, but the comprehensive strength of the battleship is much higher than that of the enemy ship, as long as the command does not make a mistake, the one-on-one will definitely win, and the one-on-two also has a chance of winning, and the odds of winning against alien warships with scattered single or double ships are very high." You also know that there are not many warships in the assault fleet, and it is not good for us to concentrate warships for a decisive battle, and on the other hand, fighting guerrilla warfare is our strong point. ”

Qiu Tianning added: "When necessary, you can also use the scattered warships together, but you can't give the aliens a chance to fight a decisive battle." ”

The first brother smiled: "This is the space version of the sea wolf tactic...... So how to solve the problem of logistics? Are all those bases completed? ”

"Except for Base 1, Base 2, 3 and 4 are all normal and should be delivered on time." Huo Qiang said, "Dispersing the attack can also buy time for the construction of the base and avoid the situation of the No. 1 base again." ”

"What about Base One?"

"The pre-selected asteroid has been scrapped, and an asteroid must be found again, and the North Moon Continent has prepared the spaceship and supplies, as long as it finds a suitable place, the spacecraft can set off at any time."

"How to solve the security problem?"

"For the time being, the Thunder Mountain is in charge, and after the follow-up warships are sent, the aliens will not have a chance to figure out our base."

"It's good to have faith, but don't be careless." The first brother said, "Taizu said it well, strategically despise the enemy, the tactic is to attach importance to the enemy, I don't say the current situation, you also know, if you lose one battleship, you will lose one, and fight with aliens to attrition, and the final loss must be us, you are the experts, I will not point fingers as a layman." ”

Qiu Tianning smiled: "You are too modest, you can manage such a big family, you are much better than us." ”

"Don't fool me, I'm not old and foolish!" The first brother smiled and pointed to his temple, "If you say what you are missing, you will definitely give it, and if you don't, you will have to give it, but if the battle is not good, I will be held responsible!" ”

"Rest assured, we will do our best." Huo Qiang said.

The first brother said: "There are a few more things, maybe you have done a good job, but I want to emphasize again, one is to save yourself in order to destroy the enemy; second, military speculation is unacceptable; Third, pay attention to the mood of the troops, our soldiers are not young master soldiers, but the times have changed, and now is not the era when you don't ask for anything in return for the sake of ideals, and the work that should be grasped must be grasped, understand? ”

"Don't worry, chief, we understand."
