Chapter 117: The Glory of Blood XVI
Lu Lu held the teacup with both hands, his eyes were confused against the clear tea in the cup, and his face was faintly serious in the steaming water. From the perspective of the bridge operator, the Grand Admiral of his own family www.biquge.info more serious than ever.
"Thirty minutes left, it's tough." Lu Lu sighed softly and confided his worries to his lieutenant. The excellent performance from the enemy succeeded in shaking Lulu.
"The mission is progressing well, and the losses are acceptable." Falcon actually didn't quite understand what Lu Lu was thinking at the moment, but as a Yanhuang person in the cosmic era, Falcon was much more confident than Lu Lu. At least in the face of sacrifice, Falcon's attitude naturally made the earthlings Lu Lu feel creepy.
The calm words made Lu Lu's hands shake uncontrollably, but Hayabusa, who was filtering the latest information, didn't notice his abnormality. The mission of the aviation troops was personally approved by Lu Lu, and he was clear about every process of that mission. Naturally, he knows the risks better than anyone else.
The so-called acceptable losses in this plan are as high as 12 percent. In the most straightforward words, more than 4 million of the more than 36 million air forces that have been put into the battlefield at this moment have been classified to the point that even death will not affect the progress of the mission. However, from the time this plan was proposed to the implementation, no one objected to it, and no one rejected it.
"More than three million pilots have lost contact with us so far." Lu Lu casually pulled a copy of the data in front of Falcon. Although it is said that the loss of contact is not dead, but at the moment the battle is still ongoing, and the rescue force that can be mobilized here in Lulu is very weak. And those pilots who are unfortunate enough to drift in space can only face all dangers alone.
Hayabusa looked at the ever-changing numbers on the screen in front of her, showing no emotion, and her expression remained calm. After a few minutes, Hayabusa reported to Lu Lu in a serious manner: "Once the fleet has finished replenishing, I will urge the rescue personnel of the logistics department to leave as soon as possible." ”
Whether people like to admit it or not, the most important thing for the Federation Navy now is the supply of the fleet, and everything else has to be put on the back burner. If the sacrifice of a few people can be exchanged for more people to live, if the death of a few can be exchanged for victory, then there is no choice between the sacrifice and death of a few.
"After all, it's a plan with a success rate of up to 30%. Even if this plan fails, there is a backup plan on the Fang Xue side. Lu Lu smiled indifferently very abruptly, and he didn't know whether he was comforting himself or his subordinates who were eavesdropping on their ears.
The Special Service Fleet is not a regular Central Fleet, and compared with the regular Central Fleet, the Special Service Fleet is full of randomness compared to the regular Central Fleet. Just let the confident and flamboyant Seventh Fleet adapt to this casualness, and it will not be as easy as the special service fleet.
Since the logistics of the Gillesis cluster are coordinated by Lu Lu, the purely logistical work procedures are mostly carried out in accordance with the practice of the special service fleet. Previously there were temporary fortresses behind it, and the friction between the various fleets was not enough to attract the attention of the higher-ups. Not long after the emergency supply in the battle began, the head of the former logistics fleet of the Seventh Fleet came to the Fang Ze with a full of resentment.
From the moment the special service fleet fell silent, the logistics fleet entered the busiest period. After the battleship unfolded the external armor plate and threw the storage module away, the prepared logistics ship immediately advanced the storage module full of supplies, and the whole process would never take more than a minute.
The ordinary model of the Throne of Kings class battleship has twelve storage modules. By design, these storage modules can be replaced at the same time using the equipment of the logistics ship. The Yanhuang who are engaged with the enemy army must take into account the impact of the enemy's artillery bombardment, and their efficiency will naturally be affected.
Broadly speaking, a special service fleet of nearly 50,000 people would take at least 3,500 hours to fully replenish a fleet. Especially the emergency supply in the combat state, it seems that the battlefield has given the logistics department of the Gillesis cluster a severe test.
The heavy supply tasks were originally a test of the logistics department's ability to bear, but during this period, the run-in between the special service fleet and the logistics department of the Seventh Fleet was not as tacit as expected.
"Well, well, okay, I'll get the Federation to pay attention to the coordination." Feng Qingyin hung up the communication from the chief of staff, this was the third time, and the unbearable chief of staff complained to the commander about the various illegal operations of his colleagues.
But Feng Qingyin was not worried...... That's right, the commander of the Gillesis cluster did not have the slightest concern about the serious challenges facing the logistics department. She just looked at the Grand Admiral on the Federation with a calm smile in her stomach, and only those who were familiar with Lu Lu would understand that the Grand Admiral of the Special Service Fleet had too much content in his smile.
"Can't you be more serious now?" Feng Qingyin was a little uncontrollable, when he was busy with his work, there was a person next to him who was idle enough to drink tea leisurely, and everyone would have an unbalanced time.
"Well, that's because I can only sit here and drink tea now." Lu Lu put away his smile and shook his head solemnly, probably because Lu Lu's expression was too upright, and Feng Qingyin could also feel the change in the situation on Lu Lu's side through the screen.
So Feng Qingyin subconsciously frowned: "The situation is not good?" Or ......"
Lu Lu took a sip of the teacup in his hand, as if nothing had happened: "Ah, it's nothing, it's just that my logistics chief here is tired." ”
"......" silently protested against his partner's out-of-tune Feng Qingqing, and the expression on his face could be described as distorted. The problem of the logistics director at such a critical moment can be called a tragedy for the entire battle situation. But Lu Lu was still in the mood to sit on the bridge and drink tea...... Feng Qingyin was already eager to rush to Lu Lu, tugging at his collar and asking for an explanation.
"Then again, Feng whispered. Sometimes, you can choose to trust me. Lu Lu suddenly called Feng Qingyin by his full name very seriously, but the words behind him were really a little underwhelming in Feng Qingyin's opinion. I don't take war as child's play, and I don't take sacrifice for granted. What I can be indifferent to is the ones I don't care about. ”
Having said that, Lu Lu knew very well that this was just to appease Feng Qingyin. It is true that he did not regard war as child's play, but war can always be a game in his eyes. If it were only for the sake of victory, what Lu Lu would do was put himself in the position of a spectator, ruthlessly calculating everything.
But the Gillesis Cluster doesn't exist just for victory, and the Yellow Federation wants more than just expelling invaders. At the end of the day, the overexploited eastern regions are almost depleted of resources. Purely from the perspective of interests, the eastern region does not have the value of the Yanhuang people gambling everything.
In addition to being caught off guard at the beginning of the war, the Yanhuang Federation was a little greedy and wanted more. More territory, or more talent. In terms of territory, the Federation has taken advantage of the war to acquire many galaxies in the Wellspring Domain. In terms of talents, whether it is military or science and technology, in the difficult times of wartime, talents are always emerging in an endless stream.
The matter of fighting a war is complicated and complicated, and simple and simple.
In the short time since the establishment of the Gillesis cluster, hundreds of thousands of troops have also experienced several battles. It can only be said that under the pressure of survival, the entire Gillesis cluster has made rapid progress. That's right, the progress is very fast, and Feng Qingyin was still worried about whether he could lead such a large fleet before, but now he looks at it, and he will not fall behind in the face of twice the number of enemies.
It's not just a personal transformation, it's more about the contribution of an experienced staff team. The coordinated operation of such a large fleet depends on the concerted efforts of the nearly five-figure staff officers in the fleet. In the final analysis, many things that commanders need to worry about have been figured out in advance by the staff officers, and even several plans have been made, and all the commander has to do is make a decision after weighing the pros and cons.
Among the staff officers of the entire Gillesis cluster, the first to adapt to the sudden change in work pressure was probably the group of staff officers of the special service fleet. There is a big admiral who is not very obtrusive, and they deal with emergencies too many times, so they don't care too much about certain issues.
The pace of the battle has gradually slowed down under the tacit understanding of both sides, but everyone understands that this is just to accumulate enough strength for the subsequent battle. In this way, the numerical disadvantage of the federal navy is also reflected, and it is said that the pace is slowed down, but the other side's shelling maintains a large enough threat.
Lu Lu, the deputy commander, seemed to be at a leisurely pace now, but that was only because the replenishment of the fleet was going well, and nothing serious enough to require the intervention of a Grand Admiral. However, Feng Qingyin, as the commander, is responsible for all aspects of the entire fleet, and it is normal to be busy.
No, the war eased a little, and the various problems accumulated by the entire fleet were like a tidal wave surging towards the Fang Ze. Looking at the rapidly increasing list of requests on the communicator, Feng Qingyin felt that his previous emotions were more envious of Lu Lu's ability to handle complicated work so easily.
However, what actually happened on the Federation was not as easy and comfortable as Feng Qingyin imagined.
"According to the plan, their supply efficiency cannot be compared with ours." Lu Lu said to the director of the logistics department who came to ask for instructions, and Lu Lu on the communication screen was always full of confidence. The self-confidence that seemed to have everything in mind made Falcon, who had been standing beside Lu Lu and paying attention to everything, silently turn his face.
In the communication screen, the junior officers who had the privilege of listening to the direct teachings of the Grand Admiral showed a look full of honor. The logistics officer, who was in a battle against time, probably never knew that the upright Admiral in front of him, in a place where the screen was not included, held a teacup in both hands, trying to draw courage from the hot tea.
