Chapter 69: Different Choices
It's complicated to say, but in fact, in just a few minutes, this supposed cookie-cutter battlefield becomes fragmented, and every battlefield fragment is full of surprises. The www.biquge.info was only for Brigadier General George, the commander of the Starship Force, and all this was only part of the ominous projection. Although General George was pessimistic about the overall progress of the battle, he had no intention of giving up the battle. After all, George's detachment was tasked with only delaying the enemy.
However, just as Hayabusa was not a knight, Lulu's ideas were different from those of most soldiers of his era. Lulu is not a fan of frontal combat, although he is equally adept at head-on confrontation with large fleets.
Before the Federation and the Galactic Empire had a substantial conflict, Lu Lu cut off the Starship Army, the support of the Eighty-third Warframe to be exact. General Morgan, the commander of the Galactic Empire's Source Expeditionary Force and also with a deep background, obviously didn't want his colleagues from the imperial capital to gain too much military merit in his territory.
The battle in the central area of the source became unpredictable, and the high-flying Federation 104th Fleet suddenly stopped attacking. The Mimatar Republican Fleet, which had long been bullied by the navies of the three countries, was naturally very suspicious, and carefully consolidated all the areas they considered important. However, in order to return to the homeland to participate in the war, the Federation's Source Front, including the 104th Fleet, was left with only barely defensive forces, while the main fleet moved to the east of the Source, and continued to gather the newly formed clone fleet along the way.
Of course, the return routes of the various detachments coincided with those of a detachment carrying out a special mission. This can be regarded as Lu Lu's calculation with one stone, and the two high-ranking generals belonging to different countries have not even communicated, and they tacitly cooperate with each other, which can be regarded as the regular behavior of the descendants of the earth in the cosmic era.
At this moment, Commodore Lu Sen is struggling with his armor repair system, the so-called house leak happened to rain overnight, and the Wanwang Throne class battleship, which was originally inferior in the number of main guns, has fallen into disadvantage, but the most important armor repair system has unfortunately lost a quarter of its performance. And Falcon, who successfully commanded the fighter unit to break through the battleship's defensive circle, now has to face the enemy's layers of interception inside the starship.
Admittedly, the Starship Army has been poor on the battlefield for the most part, but as a nation that has been engaged in a century-long tug-of-war with the Federation on the border, their army is by no means as clownish as they appear. For the soldiers of the Yanhuang Federation, the Starship Army is an army that always loses more and wins less on the battlefield, but at the same time, the Federation Navy has never occupied a galaxy under the jurisdiction of the Starship Army for a long time. What's more, under the protection of the Starship Army, the territory of the Galactic Empire has been expanding.
When General George evacuated all the non-combatants from the starship, the remaining soldiers used the entire starship as a battlefield. They had laid out several lines of defense, each of which was almost on the verge of collapse in the face of the Federans' attack, but when the Federans crossed the line, they were equally shocked to find that there was another line in front of them that was also about to collapse.
By the thirtieth minute of the battle, it was no longer the soldiers who were in charge of every attack who were in a frenzy, and even Hayabusa, the de facto commander, was feeling agitated.
Unlike the Yan and Huang people, who are accustomed to honing their skills for decades, the people of the Galactic Empire prefer to directly transform their bodies as adults, gaining great power with the help of enhanced potions. is also a descendant of the earth, the Galactic Empire also has its traditional education, and the Yanhuang Federation will also use strengthening potions when necessary, and both sides will not be too pedantic, but each has its own strengths.
It is precisely because the military personnel of the two countries are almost the same in individual strength that the military performance of the two countries on the battlefield is completely different that the countries of the universe are eye-opening.
Because of his professional habits, Hayabusa had to calm down after a short period of anxiety, and by the way, he habitually slapped his knife and suppressed the combat adjutant who was in a state of agitation.
"The marines and aviation alternately covered and attacked the advance. Have the intruding technician destroy all the energy pipelines. "If possible, Falcon also hopes to get a complete battleship, the origin of the Galactic Empire and the Yanhuang Federation determines that they have the same technical system, so an intact silver-white battleship has an immeasurable effect on the improvement of the Federation starship.
The Federation's adjustments soon affected the Starship Army's defenses. General George noticed it a few minutes later, and then reluctantly gave up the struggle, knowing the ship's fate from the time the Federation troops boarded. But George didn't care, after all, all he wanted was time. For a variety of reasons, George finally decided to trade a battleship for the success of his mission.
As the commander who decided the outcome of the battle, General George showed the determination of a soldier. Unfortunately, in the face of the flood of attacks from the Federation Army, the soldiers of the Imperial Starship Army lost their courage in the continuous defeat. The initial external armoured buffer zone, where nearly 10,000 soldiers struggled, caused thousands of casualties in half an hour.
There are Federalists, and there are Imperials.
In the makeshift command post, Hayabusa could calmly look at the tactical map, but he didn't dare to look at the ever-changing casualty figures in the lower left corner.
Two hours later, the Yanhuang people were only one step away from the gate of victory, and the power compartment had been controlled, leaving only the core of the starship, the bridge, that is, the command module. The team rushing ahead was already moving at full speed on the central passage, separated from the command cabin by only a gate, with three layers of armor.
"Evacuate urgently, the second ship will start shelling in three minutes." In the spare command room, which is unique to the command battleship, General George smiled contemptuously and pressed the red button under the heavy setting without hesitation. The second set of command facilities, which would hardly be useful, was thrown away from the hull by a powerful projection device, and just after breaking away from the massive figure of the battleship, the silver-white rescue ship that had been prepared early captured the large and small escape pods with a towing beam.
When the entire starship resounded with a piercing scream, and the dark red light turned an eerie pale blue, both sides of the battle stopped their actions. It should be said here that although the military systems of various countries are different, the Yanhuang Federation is independent from the Galactic Empire after all, and even now, hundreds of years later, the navies of the two countries still have a lot in common.
For example, the departure signal, or for example, the final choice of a general.
"Attention all, urgently disengage."
Wu Fuye stood in the middle of the passage and turned his head to look at the falcon in some surprise. The emergency evacuation signal lit up by the communication channel built into the helmet immediately attracted his full attention.
Although the order from the higher authorities was a little strange, the experienced military man reacted. Although the soldiers of the Galactic Empire seem unreliable most of the time, when they are really desperate, they are also extremely respectable.
Of course, the soldiers who were fighting on the front line received orders from the captain, but the soldiers who received the orders were divided into two categories. One is a soldier who turns around and leaves immediately, and the other is a soldier who intends to die with the enemy. Although there should theoretically be no personal enmity between fighting each other because of their respective positions, soldiers are human beings after all. There are always some people who hate the other part of the military for various reasons.
"So there's a mess up ahead?" Hayabusa tilted his head to look in the direction of his temporary lieutenant, but his eyes were unfocused. Because she commanded a unit composed of a mixture of the Marines and the children of the Qiao family, a team with natural flaws in discipline and execution. This level of chaos did happen, and although it was a little darker, it was what she meant by mixing her troops.
After a few seconds of silence, Hayabusa sighed, "They are soldiers now. ”
The cold but calm voice made Qiao Ye, who was millions of kilometers away, close his eyes in pain. But Lu Sen stood by his side, without comfort or ridicule, just a calm narration: "Open your eyes and watch their sacrifices, this is your responsibility, and it is also my responsibility." ”
……
Some died of bravery, some of cowardice, and still others of fear. However, there is also an honor called fearlessness in the death of mankind.
……
When Lu Lu saw the Falcon on the Federation, the young woman was wearing the black uniform of the Intelligence Bureau, straightened her back as if she was using all her strength to salute the army, and the cold glow oozing from the silver sergeant armband once again made Lu Lu feel the bitterness under her calm.
"Report to the general, mission accomplished."
"Good work." Speaking in an official tone, Lu Lu nodded calmly, as if he had never known that the past two weeks had been bloody, even though he was holding a sternly worded condemnation document from the Unification Department in his hand. For Falcon, a mission is a mission. Whether it is an enemy, her own people, or innocent people, no one can stop her from completing the set task.
"However, it is very regrettable that because of the orders of the High Command, I am afraid that I cannot give you more rest." Of course, the backlog in Lulu's hands was not only the protest documents of the illegal armed forces of the Mimatar Republic, but also the military notices from the Eastern Theater of Operations forwarded from the High Command. "I'd like you to help me adjust to the conflict between the Army's Seventh Army and the Marines, which has affected the fleet's operational schedule."
Hayabusa carefully discerned Lu Lulu's attitude, and found that he did not have a disguised smile, but expressed some kind of expectation with a serious expression. So, the god of death, who had just crossed countless galaxies and taken countless lives, lowered all his guard and replied seriously: "Follow your will, General." ”
Hearing Falcon's serious answer, Lu Lu scratched his head a little uncomfortably and said, "Those disobedient guys, just lie down." These two troops are full of newcomers with muscles in their heads, and the lawless newcomers are something that Lu Lu, a "crippled" admiral, cannot be afraid of.
This is also the consequence of assigning the members of the Marine Corps directly under the Federation to the Squirrel Force in order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the clone troops. When the Secret Service Fleet lost its priority replenishment of the Commonwealth homeland, the management of the fleet was severely understaffed. After most of the experienced officers and non-commissioned officers were transferred, the unruly newcomers caused great problems in the discipline management of the fleet. Troubled by this trivial matter that has risen to the level of confrontation between the military branches, Lu Lu takes it for granted and throws trouble to Hayabusa. (To be continued.) )
