Chapter 305: Soldiers are far away
"The request is very simple, that is, during my occupation, you will act as my agent and come forward to manage these places on my behalf." Liu Yi said solemnly.
Mei Yuqi thought about it for a while, and immediately understood what Liu Yi meant, this was to facilitate management, so as not to cause a backlash from the locals.
Foreign colonies often hated the Empire, and if the locals knew that they had been conquered by the Empire, it would provoke a backlash.
If it were to be run by people from other foreign colonies, the locals would still not be happy, but they would be much less resistant.
Mei Yuqi thought that after five years, these places would also be handed over to the Mei family for management, and it was not necessarily a bad thing to take over the management earlier.
So Mei Yuqi nodded and said, "Okay, this request is very reasonable, and I agreed." ”
The two quickly determined some major principles, and as for the details of the future, Liu Yi will no longer participate, and will naturally arrange specific people to be responsible.
A major event was decided between the two of them, and the rest was the question of when and where to send troops.
Mei Yuqi had actually thought of the goal a long time ago, and now that the major event had been negotiated, she simply told Liu Yi several goals.
"Bai Wen Xing, Shen Jupiter, Shen Lin Xing." Mei Yuqi named the three colonies.
Liu Yi nodded, he had heard all three names, Bai Wenxing needless to say, it was originally Tuoyuanxing's feud, and Mei Yuqi chose it to a large extent to wash away the previous feud.
The two planets Shenmu and Shenlin are from the same star system, Mei Yuqi chose them on the one hand because they are convenient to manage, and on the other hand, because the economy of these two planets is not bad, although there are also constant wars, but the damage is not as serious as that of other colonies.
"Okay, let's make them a target." Liu Yi immediately agreed to Mei Yuqi's choice.
Mei Yuqi said: "Now that the goal has been determined, how do you plan to take these three colonies?" ”
Liu Yi said: "The specific way to do it is up to General Feng Kailong to decide, I am only responsible for signing a contract with you, do you have anything else to add?" ”
Mei Yuqi shook her head, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that I would sign such an agreement with you, if it was before, I am afraid that I would not have thought that I would one day sign such an agreement with the people of the empire." ”
Liu Yi said: "The people of the empire are also the same human beings, do you want to see these colonies have been poisoned by war?" We also did this so that the people of the colonies could get on the road to peace as soon as possible. ”
"Hopefully things will go our way." Mei Yuqi said softly.
A few days later, Liu Yi asked people to draw up an agreement, and then sent it to Mei Yuqi, who returned the signed agreement to Liu Yi, and this secret agreement signed by Tuoyuan Xingmei and Yaqiu took effect.
The next thing Liu Yi handed over to Feng Kailong, and he and Mei Yuqi discussed the specific battle plan, and after about a month of deliberation and preparation, the plan to send troops was determined, and the time of the expedition was set in a week.
Externally, Liu Yi and Feng Kailong only said that the fleet's departure from Yaqiu this time was just a regular training, and no one doubted anything.
Due to the secrecy of this matter, Liu Yi could not let many people know that the Yaqiu fleet was actually going to fight abroad, so only a very small number of high-ranking figures in the entire Yaqiu knew the truth about this operation.
Under the command of Feng Kailong, the Yaqiu fleet sailed out of the Yaqiu system and headed in the direction of the White Stone Fortress.
After a leap flight, the fleet arrived at the White Rock Fortress a few days later, and the commander of the fortress, Che Kuang, personally came by boat to greet him. Che Kuang had already learned in advance that the Yaqiu fleet would go to Tuoyuan Star to help the Mei family, but he didn't know that the real target of the fleet was actually the other three colonies.
When Che Kuang saw the Yaqiu fleet, he couldn't help but exclaim excitedly: "What a mighty fleet!" All of them are the latest in the world, if only the White Rock Fortress had such a ship! ”
Che Kuang came to Feng Kailong's flagship to meet the former famous general, Che Kuang had heard of Feng Kailong for a long time, and the excitement in his heart was overflowing when he saw it today.
"The old general has worked hard!" Che Kuang admired Feng Kailong, a veteran, from the bottom of his heart.
Feng Kailong had heard from Liu Yi before that Che Kuang had made miraculous achievements in the surprise attack on the Mammoth Galaxy, and when he saw it today, he found out that Che Kuang was still so young.
"Colonel Che Kuang, being able to guard such an important place at such a young age has an unlimited future in the future!" Feng Kailong praised.
The two exchanged a few words of greeting, and then talked about this battle, Che Kuang knew a lot about the overseas colonies, so he told Feng Kailong a lot of his experience.
Although Feng Kailong has commanded the fleet for many years, he really doesn't know enough about overseas affairs, and after listening to Che Kuang's account, he realized that the situation in the overseas colonies was so complicated.
"I didn't expect that there was such a complicated situation in the overseas colonies, I really didn't know enough about it before, and I had to learn more in the future." Feng Kailong said with emotion.
"Actually, it is not difficult to lay down an overseas colony, but it is the most difficult to win the hearts and minds of the people, otherwise the He Empire should have included these colonies in its territory a long time ago......," Che Kuang said.
"Thank you Colonel Che for your advice, which has made me grow a lot, and we will learn from each other in the future." Feng Kailong said modestly.
Che Kuang hurriedly said: "General Feng is a person I admire very much, where do I dare to teach the old general, but I hope the old general can guide me more!" ”
The two talked very happily, and Che Kuang promised that next time he went to Yaqiu to report on his work, he would definitely visit Feng Kailong and ask him for more advice.
After Che Kuang returned to the fortress, Feng Kailong commanded the fleet to pass through the fortress's defense area and speed up towards Tuoyuan Star.
After entering the Tuoyuan Galaxy, Mei Yuqi had already sent a ship to wait on the route. Mei Yuqi's subordinates arrived at the Yaqiu fleet as scheduled, and they all breathed a sigh of relief, and the previous doubts that the Yaqiu army would go back on their word were finally eliminated.
Years of estrangement have made people outside the country always maintain a suspicious attitude towards the people of the empire, even if Liu Yi has cooperated with the Mei family many times, he can't eliminate such a mustard in a short time.
Mei Yuqi's subordinates boarded Feng Kailong's flagship, and after the two sides introduced each other, Mei Yuqi's subordinates acted as navigators and led the Yaqiu fleet to Tuoyuan Star.
In the past two years, thanks to the large number of mecha provided by Liu Yi, the Mei family's army has taken control of most of Tuoyuan Star.
However, due to the strength of the Mei family, the enemy had to put aside their prejudices and chose to fight together. Although any of these hostile armies alone could not pose a threat to the Mei family, when they were all in a group, their strength should not be underestimated.
It is precisely because of this that the war that led to the unification of the Mei family to unify the Tuoyuan Star seemed to be overwhelming at the beginning, but in the later stage, it was slow to progress, and it was expected to end the war within three years, but it was still impossible to see the dawn of victory.
Mei Yuqi's father, Mei Fanglin, was a visionary, and he knew that before his rise, Tuoyuanxing was not without strong figures who were overly prosperous and expected to be unified.
But these people failed to get their wish in the end, and the reason is that at the most critical time, they failed to defeat all their opponents in one go, resulting in the final being gradually turned over by the enemy opponent.
These vivid examples made a deep impression on Mei Fanglin, and now he was facing a similar situation, no matter what, he always missed the enemy army completely.
Because of this, when Liu Yi proposed to Mei Yuqi that he was willing to send a fleet to help, Mei Fanglin immediately felt that he had seen the dawn of victory.
With the help of the interstellar fleet, it will be very easy to defeat the competition, and Mei Fanglin does not want to drag it out any longer, he is afraid that if he drags it out for too long, he will become a negative teaching material in history.
Therefore, Mei Fanglin quickly asked his daughter to agree to Liu Yi's proposal, not to mention letting Liu Yi temporarily occupy a few colonies, even if they were all given to Liu Yi, it didn't matter if they were all given to Liu Yi, anyway, it was not his Mei Fanglin's territory.
When the Yaqiu fleet arrived at Tuoyuan Star, Mei Fanglin personally led his daughter Mei Yuqi and a group of important subordinates to personally board Feng Kailong's flagship.
After the two sides met, they first exchanged pleasantries, and then they cut to the chase and began to discuss specific battle plans.
Mei Fanglin's idea was to lure out the enemy's main forces first, let them gather together, and have a decisive battle with the Mei family's army. At this time, Feng Kailong led the fleet to strike from the air and destroyed the enemy's large force in one fell swoop.
Without the help of the Yaqiu fleet, Mei Fanglin would not be able to defeat the other party in a decisive battle, and the strength of the two armies was almost at the same level, and neither side could eat the other side in one bite.
However, now with the huge advantage of the fleet, Mei Fanglin is completely sure that he can eliminate the enemy army in one go in the Armageddon.
Feng Kailong expressed his support for this, in fact, no matter how many ground troops the enemy has, it cannot pose a threat to the fleet, so it doesn't matter what tactics are used, it depends on Mei Fanglin's plan.
A few days later, the battle plan officially began, and Mei Fanglin began to assemble the main force and put on a posture of attacking the enemy's military stronghold.
The enemy's military stronghold was a military fortress called the Crane Tower, because the terrain was extremely dangerous, coupled with the heavy guards, it became an insurmountable obstacle in the path of Mei Fanglin's advance.
In order to conquer this fortress, Mei Fanglin had lost a lot of troops, but he was never able to take it.
Now that Mei Fanglin once again put on a posture of attacking in a big way, the enemy naturally did not dare to take it lightly, and began to accumulate heavy troops to prepare to deal with Mei Fanglin's attack.
"The armies on both sides are carrying out a large-scale build-up, and the preliminary estimate is that the number of mechs is about 1,500 units...... "One soldier submitted the latest information to Feng Kailong.
The Yaqiu fleet, which remained in orbit, always paid close attention to the movements of both sides, and through the large number of satellites and the information sent back by the probes, the Yaqiu fleet could clearly see that many troops had gathered around the fortress.
