503.The Scorpion Fight 9
The situation on the battlefield is favorable to the Tyranid Empire, which occupies a relatively advantageous position. There is no doubt that there is no good going for the Kanta Empire.
But this time, the commander of the Kanta Empire was a very firm royalist during the usurpation of the throne of Seth. He is one of the very few veteran generals in the Kanta Empire who has experienced strong winds and waves. The character is very old and steady, and was later evaluated by Marshal Dean of Tesa Kawa as: "One of the few people who can fight with one!" β
This battle was led by him, personally commanding the last main fleet of the Kanta Empire, and fighting to the death with the elite of the Tyranid Empire. Because he saw very clearly, the elite of the Tyranid Empire came in and out, and the strategic purpose must be to force the Kanta Empire to submit. Therefore, in any case, it is necessary to show a tough attitude, which is not only to show the determination of the Kanta Empire, but also to express: "The Kanta Empire is also a bloody country!" β
Looking at the unfavorable situation on the star map, his lieutenants and staff officers were already busy with their work, and they were anxious about the current situation. But here is only this old general, holding his head with both hands, staring at the star map with cloudy eyes, which looks like an invisible black hole from the perspective of others, swallowing all emotions.
"Marshal!" An adjutant general came up to him and said, "Your Majesty is calling! β
When the old general heard the emperor's call, he nodded silently and motioned for him to read it out.
The adjutant general opened the telephone letter, and a few words were clearly written on it: "When will the foreign enemy be expelled?" β
Hearing these words, the old general's expression showed a slight abnormality, but in the end, there was a calm like a cold lake. The adjutant general didn't get a response, he didn't know how to answer the emperor, and he was stunned for a while, not knowing what to do?
"What are you still doing here?" The old general looked at him and said lightly, "Don't you have anything else to do?" β
The old general had a very aura on his body, and the adjutant general knew his character, so he pointed directly to the letter and said, "How should we reply to His Majesty the Emperor?" The current situationβ"
Although this adjutant general is not a direct commander, he is also a military general, and the necessary vision is still clear. I know that for the fierce offensive of the Tyranid Empire, my side is very passive!
The old general was silent for a moment, his cloudy eyes uncertain, and he didn't know if he answered: "The emperor asked us to expel the enemy, does he think that we can defeat the Tyranid Empire?" Or does he think that the Tyranid Empire can advance all the way only because of our country's lack of preparation for war? As long as we wait for the arrival of our army, will the enemy flee in a scattered manner? - Humph! β
His eyes had been fixed on the changing situation on the star map for a very long time. Gradually, it has become somewhat clear that the long-term military victories of the Tyranid Empire are not based on a high level of tactical command and strategic planning. And it is completely by virtue of the heroic struggle of the soldiers and a sense of indomitable combat courage!
Indeed, there is a saying in the military: "Laymen talk about tactics and strategy, and insiders look at logistics and military." β
This veteran general who has been fighting all his life can see it very clearly. Perhaps tactics and strategies, the Tyranid Empire must have, and they have been working out for a long time. However, for the real battle, it is carried out, but on the premise of ensuring tactics and strategy and not making any mistakes, it is completely up to the soldiers to fight and fight to their heart's content.
The advantage of this is obvious, and it is conceivable that it will get rid of the rigidity of "obedience" in traditional military thinking. To the greatest extent, it is to wield everyone's potential, which is undoubtedly a great space for excavating the potential of combat effectiveness or cultivating talents.
The old general saw very clearly that it would be very difficult to defeat such a strong enemy, let alone be able to expel it. Now for the Kanta Empire, the best thing to do is to fight a protracted war and a war of attrition. As long as the insufficient national strength of the Tyranid Empire is brought down!
It's just that he understands this truth, but for his lieutenant generals, how do you ask him to answer the emperor? Suddenly, I saw his face pale: "Marshal, this, is it so, to report to His Majesty the Emperor?" β
Indeed, to put it mildly, it is nothing to say that the enemy is strong. But if it can't, God knows how Horus will be furious?
There was no way, the old general also frowned a little and thought for a while: "Okay, you answer like this for the time being, just say: The enemy's offensive is fierce, and our army is still resisting bravely." If you can't expel Hu Lu, you will repay the empire with death! β
The adjutant general hurriedly used the pen he carried with him to record it on the letter. When he heard the last sentence, he was instinctively stunned for a moment, and looked at the marshal with a shocked face. But looking at his resolute face, his heart has already understood. After hurriedly recording the last sentence and saluting the old general, he immediately retreated.
When the adjutant general left, the old general sighed slowly: "What joy is life, and what is fear of death?" β
In the army all his life, he is used to seeing the cruelty of reality, fratricidal and fighting for power and profit. The decline of the empire, the resurgence, the turmoil, the civil war. Enough of all this.
The ship was bombarded by a warship of the Tyranid Empire, and the uneasy tremors continued. The old general stood up at this time, his figure was calm, as if steady as a mountain, and the vibration of the battleship was not affected.
He asked a communications officer, "How's it going, what's going on with the other two?" β
The communications officer, hearing the voice of the old general, hurriedly sat up to salute. But I don't know if it was because of the shaking of the ship, or if he instinctively didn't stand still, and staggered his body.
The old general hurriedly stopped and said, "Okay, it's wartime, everything is simple!" You sit down and report the situation! β
The communications officer immediately said: "The situation is not much better than ours, the attack of the Tyranid Empire is fierce. However, General Sewell, who once started a counterattack tactic, seemed to have made some progress, but his opponent also looked very powerful, and immediately adjusted his tactics and immediately stabilized his position. General Sewell just wanted to ask for more troops, ready to fight the enemy to the death! β
"Hmph, this guy, did you forget all the explanations you gave in advance?" The old general said calmly: "You immediately telegraph General Sewell and tell him not to mess around!" If his plans were ruined, don't blame me for taking him to court-martial! β
