"What!"

"Do you want to use the Houyi cannon?"

"Do you want to use that?"

There was an uproar in the hall, and Huang Ding's decision shocked everyone present, including those high-ranking figures in the military.

The ordinary officers and soldiers, though shocked, did not dare to raise any objections, but the high-ranking generals were not so easy to dismiss.

"Commander-in-chief, is this decision too hasty, Houyi Cannon is our last hole card, let's show it now, what if there is any change in the situation?" The first to stand up against it was Admiral Gao Yingli.

Gao Yingli's qualifications are very old, and when he became a general, Huang Ding was only a middle-level officer, so Huang Ding usually had to give him three points.

Gao Yingli's clear attitude immediately won the support of others, and the commander of the Imperial Capital Defense Force, General Ma Fu, also said: "General Gao's words are right, how can secret weapons be easily revealed, if we encounter a more serious situation in the future, we will have no hole cards." ”

"Yes, if such a weapon is used casually, what kind of secret weapon is it?"

"General Gao and General Ma are right, how can this kind of heavy weapon to protect the country be taken out at every turn, isn't it a cannon to shoot birds?"

The senior generals did not agree with Huang Ding's proposition, and almost unanimously agreed that it was too early to use the Houyi cannon at this time.

While the Imperial Commander-in-Chief was arguing, the situation on the battlefield had quietly changed.

It turned out that Deng Yuanqing, the commander of the Flying Wolf Fleet, saw that the situation was unfavorable to him, so he had the intention of retreating, but this war was not just a matter of his fleet.

Once the Flying Wolf Fleet retreats, the situation on the entire battlefield will change accordingly, and he cannot afford this responsibility in case the war is lost.

However, it is not possible to keep the stalemate, the Flying Wolf Fleet is now very passive, and if it continues to fight, it will only be consumed little by little.

Deng Yuanqing brought the staff to discuss it urgently, and finally one of the staff members came up with an idea, it was better to let the Flying Wolf Fleet retreat and approach the Lion Fleet, and the two fleets would work together to attack the temporary fleet with the least number of ships, as long as the temporary fleet was destroyed, the two fleets of the Lion and the Flying Wolf would work together to attack the 1st Fleet.

If the 1st Fleet dares to pursue, it will be directed away from the defenses, so that it can also fight the opponent.

Deng Yuanqing approved the plan, so he immediately had an urgent consultation with Cai Qi and Li You, and the two agreed to Deng Yuanqing's proposal.

Deng Yuanqing immediately gave the order to let the fleet retreat while fighting, and at the same time moved closer to the area where the lion fleet was located.

The 1st Fleet, relying on the help of the shield system, was gradually gaining the upper hand, but at this time, it was found that the opposing fleet seemed to have the intention of retreating.

At this time, Hu Wei, the commander of the 1st fleet, hesitated a little, if he stuck to the same place, he would let go of the Flying Wolf Fleet in vain, but if he took the initiative to pursue, he was afraid that the other party would have a plot and tricks.

In the end, Hu Wei decided to report the matter to the General Headquarters and let the General Headquarters make a decision, so that he would not have to bear any responsibility.

The General Headquarters was still arguing at this time, and Huang Ding insisted on using the Houyi cannon, but the other senior generals all objected, and the quarrel was fruitless for a long time.

To start the Houyi cannon, it is not possible to rely on Huang Ding alone, and the consent of the other two generals must be obtained, so that the three of them can enter their respective passwords together, and the Houyi artillery system can be activated.

This is done to prevent such a superweapon from falling into the hands of some madman for some special reason. If the Houyi Cannon is mastered by someone, and this person wants to be unfavorable to the emperor, the entire planet will be in an extremely dangerous situation.

Therefore, the activation code of the Houyi cannon was kept by three people, all three of whom were the emperor's most trusted people.

Hu Wei's request made the quarrel have to be temporarily stopped, and everyone read the battle report sent by Hu Wei, and they all thought that the pursuit could not be pursued, but the 1st Fleet could be allowed to reinforce the temporary fleet and strive to defeat the opponent's lion fleet as soon as possible.

Hu Wei, who received the order, immediately mobilized the fleet and moved to the area defended by the temporary fleet, but Deng Yuanqing had long expected such a reaction from the emperor.

Seeing that the Flying Wolf Fleet had not yet joined the Lion Fleet, it suddenly turned back halfway and circled towards the back of the 1st Fleet.

Hu Wei noticed the enemy's movement and hurriedly ordered the fleet to turn around and re-engage the opposing fleet.

Seeing that the 1st Fleet had turned back again, the Flying Wolf Fleet immediately retreated, without the slightest intention of fighting, and the 1st Fleet did not dare to leave the defensive area easily, so it asked the General Headquarters again for instructions on what to do.

The bigwigs in the General Headquarters were also annoyed, and they scolded Hu Wei for slipping his head and not taking responsibility at all, and he must be punished when the battle is over.

However, the General Headquarters still had to come up with a decision, and after some deliberation, everyone decided to transfer part of the 1st Fleet to support the Provisional Fleet, and the rest of the troops continued to defend the original area.

After the readjustment, the forces of the two sides became more equal than before, and the three sides became a situation where no one could eat the other, and a stalemate was maintained with each other.

Just when the General Headquarters breathed a sigh of relief, an urgent report suddenly came from the temporary fleet, and the fleet commander Zhang Ao reported to the General Headquarters that the other party's attack was becoming more and more fierce, and he was about to be unable to withstand it.

Everyone in the headquarters couldn't help but look at each other, and no one understood why this situation had suddenly happened, and it was clear that the 1st Fleet had already been supported, and even if they couldn't defeat the enemy, they should at least be able to maintain an even match.

It turned out that when the Flying Wolf Fleet went and returned, Commander Deng Yuanqing had already quietly joined the Lion Fleet with a part of the elite. Returning to the original area are the ships that are short on energy, which appear to be attacking the 1st Fleet from behind, but the real purpose is to contain them.

The 1st Fleet was fooled and immediately returned to defend itself, while the Flying Wolf Fleet immediately retreated, resolutely not engaging the 1st Fleet.

The 1st Fleet was afraid to leave the defense zone, but the General Headquarters ordered the 1st Fleet to detach some ships to support the Temporary Fleet, so Hu Wei sent the ships that were damaged and short of energy.

After a few tosses, although the number seems to be more balanced, in fact, the strength of the lion fleet has increased a lot, while the temporary fleet has only increased in number, but the combat effectiveness has not increased much.

Where would the high-ranking officials of the General Headquarters know these details, so the results of the urgent report sent by the temporary fleet came out.

At this time, it is too late to investigate the cause, the temporary fleet is under great pressure, and if there are no reinforcements, it will not be long before it will completely collapse.

The most direct way is to let the 1st Fleet go to reinforce, but with the Flying Wolf Fleet, the 1st Fleet will not dare to leave the defense area easily.

The high-ranking officials of the General Headquarters are really anxious now, if the Provisional Fleet is defeated, it will be the turn of the 1st Fleet next, and then the whole war will be lost.

I saw that everyone was sweating on their heads, looking at each other, you looked at me, I looked at you, and no one could come up with a useful move.

At this time, it was Huang Ding's turn to be proud, just now he proposed to use the Houyi cannon, but he was forced back by a group of people. Although he was the commander-in-chief, it was impossible to oppose everyone, so the proposal had to be abandoned.

Now that the temporary fleet has reached the most critical moment, no one else has anything to do, and Huang Ding knows that it is his turn to be the master.

"Humph! Look at the good things you guys have done! Huang Ding said coldly: "If I had followed my method just now, why would it be like this now!" ”

The senior generals all lowered their heads and refused to speak, although they were not convinced, but now they really have no face to refute Huang Ding.

Huang Ding was stunned, and everyone was red-faced, and finally Huang Ding proposed again to use Houyi artillery to deal with the enemy army to reduce the pressure on the temporary fleet.

Now no one dares to oppose Huang Ding anymore, otherwise the big hat of the main cause of defeat will be taken down, and no one can afford such a big responsibility.

"Okay, I agree to use the Houyi cannon." Chief of the General Staff Wen Xiongfei said helplessly.

Wen Xiongfei was the second person to master the code of the Houyi cannon, and the third person to master the secret was Deputy Commander-in-Chief Luo Yu.

Luo Yu saw that Wen Xiongfei had already expressed his attitude first, if he persisted, he would definitely have a grudge with Huang Ding in the future, so it was better to push the boat along with the river.

"Since none of you object, I naturally have no reason to object, and I also agree to use the Houyi cannon." Luo Yu said.

Huang Ding saw that both of them agreed to use the Houyi cannon, and it didn't matter whether the others agreed or not.

Huang Ding said: "Okay, without further ado, let's start the Houyi system immediately!" ”

The three of them came to the console of the Houyi system, and took out their respective identification chips and inserted them into the card slot, and at this time, the boot interface of the Houyi system appeared in the projection.

"Identify the chip login, after the verification is completed, please enter the boot password, and limit the time to one minute......"

The three of them glanced at each other, each pressing a finger to the console's touchpad.

Soon the prompt sounded: "DNA verification is complete, please enter the password." ”

In front of each of the three of them, a small information projection appeared, like a small keyboard, and input could be made by touching the keyboard button in the information projection.

When the three of them entered their secrets, the system interface in the information projection changed, and an extremely obvious warning icon appeared in front of the three of them.

At this time, the system prompt appeared again: "The verification is successful, the Houyi system starts to start, do you want to release the operation authority?" ”

Huang Ding said with a little excitement: "Yes, please release the operation authority." ”

"The operation authority has been released, please wait patiently for the device to start ......" prompt sound, and a fifteen-minute countdown screen appeared in the projection. Genius remembers the first three or five in a second
