Apocalypse Descends Chapter Seventy-Three--Oath

At the headquarters of the USS Hindenburg, everything was running in an orderly manner. There are still two days to go, and the strategic deployment has already been distributed to the sub-fleets at all levels, and many staff officers are making deductions based on the operational data transmitted below.

"Chuanlan, let's take a look at the terrain." Erich beckoned Zhang Chuanlan to the largest star map.

"You see, after the destruction of the Ruby Star, the closest thing to Davion's black hole is Obsidian." Erich drew a circle with a pen.

"And on the other side of Davian, there is the Emerald Star, which we mark with triangles." Erich nodded at the black hole, "Counting the distance around the gravitational range of the black hole, the distance between the two planets is currently 1.2 billion kilometers. Neither at the speed of the Earth Fleet nor at the speed of the Davian Fleet could achieve rapid support. ”

"We can feint on the Emerald Star first, and after the enemy's fleet is supported by the portal, we will leap to Obsidian, and then the enemy will be on the cooldown of the portal, so we can hit more and less." Zhang Chuanlan saw the fighter.

"But the enemy may not choose to come back to the rescue, but to start a decisive battle with our main force. We will be at a disadvantage. Zhang Chuanlan continued, this is the most likely thing.

No one will forget that Davion's ruler is the Obsidian King. If Zhang Chuanlan was him, he would definitely shrink his defenses, regardless of the lives of other planets.

"Yes, that's the problem we're facing." Erich sighed, "It seems that a main battle is inevitable. "Not necessarily. Think about it, what is the purpose of our visit to Davian? Zhang Chuanlan rolled his eyes and already had an idea.

"You mean, send a small team and go directly to grab the artifact?" The two don't need to say much, just one sentence can understand what the other is thinking.

"That's right, my idea is to use the Apocalypse forces on our side to drag the Apocalypse people behind the other party, and then we will send a small fleet to penetrate the opponent's stronghold, take advantage of the emptiness of the opponent's garrison, and take away the artifact in one fell swoop, and we can win without a fight." Zhang Chuanlan thought very well, but in fact, he himself knew that the feasibility of this plan was debatable.

"Okay, I've made a full plan, I'll have a combat meeting tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow we'll sacrifice to the sky, swear to the army, and go on the expedition!" Erich even said the word sacrifice to heaven in a grand manner, and the sense of disobedience was too strong.

"Cut, it's better to sacrifice to the heavens. Kill three animals on the moon, and blood will float everywhere. Zhang Chuanlan seems to have tried it and has already experienced this.

"Obviously to find a feeling of ancient China, you actually objected, alas." Erich shook his head, as if he thought he was incredible.

Countdown to Davian, one day.

Paraná was shopping for personal supplies on the streets of New Union, and he needed more canned food than the chef's meals on the Yellow Emperor. Like Zhang Chuanlan, he loves to eat serious Chinese food, even if it is plastic or tin foil packaging. As for why the chef on the Yellow Emperor, the flagship of the Chinese fleet, couldn't cook authentic Chinese food, neither of them knew. To do this, he not only needs to stock up on tons of canned food, but also needs a large-capacity refrigerator.

Christina was still experimenting in her room, which had been turned into a complete laboratory. She has always been unkempt and careless about dressing, but even if she only wears a shirt and a white coat, her natural beauty alone is enough to shine.

Lena is reading her history books. Suddenly raised her head and looked at an instrument on her desk, it seemed to be a sundial, but the shadow of the pointer was not in the same direction as the light from the ceiling, if Christina saw it, it was probably going to say something about magic metaphysics or something. Lena closed the book, tossed it aside, and stood up. As if it was time, she snapped her fingers and fell into the floor and vanished.

For the members of the Vanguard fleet, everything was calm and normal, and there was no sign that it was going to be a big battle. After Io's baptism, the morale of the Third Fleet was high, and they were all gearing up and ready to go. Although the Fifth Fleet has been absent from the battle formation for a long time, Zhang Chuanlan is well-trained, and even if the enemy is present, he has not flinched at all.

Marshall went to bed early. Although the standard time is still in the afternoon, he has to be mentally prepared for the other side. Erich had just informed him of the overall strategy, and he handed it over to Motriti. The vanguard fleet is bound to suffer a major defeat, and even if the two wise generals are able to turn the tide, the threat from the fleet is much smaller.

Leslie was in the Jesus Headquarters, where he sat in his chair and stared at the screen almost every day. If he hadn't come home to rest when he got off work, he would be like a mole who burrowed around in the ground every day and didn't know what to do.

The earth was calm, and there was not a hint of gunpowder.

Countdown to Davian, five hours.

"Officers of the Combined Fleet!" Erich stood on the high rostrum, saying that it was a rostrum, but in fact it was like an altar, facing all the officers and soldiers for pre-war mobilization. "As you all know, the Davian civilization in the far NGC5139 is preparing to invade our homeland! Chernobyl has been attacked, and the enemy's methods are despicable! Erich, commander-in-chief of our combined fleet, personally led the royal division, and hated this with snow! How can a small state of Er, how to fight against the kingdom! Heavenly soldiers are everywhere, and there is not an inch of grass left! ”

Erich began to speak on stage in classical Chinese, which was originally what Lena was good at, but Barana couldn't find her. Although most of the officers and soldiers watched the live broadcast in the battleship in case of emergencies, the cadres and several people of the Apocalypse were invited to the scene. Parana stood still in the audience, not daring to move, his eyes probing left and right, but he did not find a single figure of the Apocalypse, and even Icarus disappeared.

Zhang Chuanlan was listening to it with relish, and this oath was drafted by him. But he also had a vague sense that something was wrong. It has become a common practice that something big happens every time an apocalypse disappears. Where exactly did Lena and Icarus go?

Parana waited anxiously for Erich to finish, and then wondered if there was any more process. After a while, he was relieved. It's useless to know where Lena has gone, and if something happens, they must not be able to intervene.

After a long while, Erich finally finished. At this time, Zhang Chuanlan regretted a little, why did he write the words so long. Then they carried the three animals, Zhang Chuanlan shook his head, even if he wanted to sacrifice to the sky, he should sacrifice first, and then swear an oath. Erich got the order completely wrong, and it shouldn't be. But it doesn't matter, as a fleet composed of all countries on the earth, it doesn't have to be in the tradition of ancient China.

When the sacrifice was completed, it took a lot of time. Fortunately, the sense of ceremony is very strong, and the soldiers of the fleet are very enthusiastic and their morale is high. That's what they want, and it doesn't matter what they think of Paraná.

Marshall also watched all this coldly from his office. He knew in his heart that in a few hours, they would be hit head-on. The enemy will fully see through their strategic intentions, and it will be up to Erich to react on the spot.

Everyone returned to the fleet, and the whole ship's folding engine began to warm up, and a short folding jump was carried out to improve the running-in degree of the machine. After the Yellow Emperor was replaced with dense electromagnetic guns, due to the carrying of two bases of electromagnetic armor-piercing shells, the total weight was significantly increased, and the flexibility was slightly reduced, presumably the same result was for other warships. Paraná ordered the fusion thrusters to be boosted and full speed ahead.

The Earth Defense Forces didn't move at all. The fleet is fully attacked, and the defense of the earth depends on them. However, neither the missile positions nor the space-based satellite batteries moved at all, as if they were on vacation.

The expedition was about to begin, and Parana couldn't help but be a little worried about Lena. Everything in her room was as usual, not like she was leaving, but she did disappear for a while. Although he was not afraid of the Davion fleet, if Lena was in charge, he would undoubtedly be much more courageous.

A day ago, Davian orbited the black hole.

The two groups of figures lined up, standing out of thin air in the universe.
