Chapter 12: The Engagement (II)
The Wise Wicklas's worries are not unreasonable, as soon as the main force of the Imperial Legion arrives, the situation that was originally very good will be reversed immediately! Judging from the current strength comparison, it is of course the most suitable and wise choice to accept it when it is good. But it also depends on whether the imperial side agrees or not.
The scope of the human empire's power is not its own starry sky ranch, you can enter if you want, and you can get out if you want. Having plundered so much wealth and population, and causing heavy losses on the part of the Empire, they are still thinking of retreating, unless the commanders of the Imperial army are all out of their minds!
Once Marshal Xue Cangyun, who had a great reputation among many foreign civilizations, decided to chase after him and wave his army to the royal court, the outcome of this battle would be unpredictable!
"Actually, we don't have to be embarrassed like this," Sagusnocchi muttered,
"If our allies can abide by the agreement and draw troops on the border of the Huaxia Empire according to the established plan, even if they do not launch a substantial attack, it will make them jealous, thus relieving the huge pressure on our side! But now ......"
It is said that the joint action plan of the good Lu has now become a one-man show here by the Gambino royal family, and will soon become the object of the human empire's key "care", the commander is indescribably depressed in his heart, don't those damn short-sighted guys still understand that the strength of the human race is getting stronger and stronger, if everyone does not work together and form a group, sooner or later it will be broken by this ambitious and aggressive civilization, and there will be no bones left?
The wise man of Velax sighed heavily and said:
"Your Excellency, our allies have not betrayed their intentions, but the upper echelons of the Human Empire, and they are not as foolish as we imagined! According to the information that our subordinates have just received, the Empire has carried out a series of deployments, either overt or covert, with an astonishing reaction speed, so the situation we are facing now is much more dangerous than you previously estimated! ”
"There was an accident at the top of the Tulling Kingdom, their king suddenly fell ill for some reason, and there was a new controversy over the plan for sending troops that the Supreme Council of Elders had already drawn up, and several elders with real power had their own opinions and quarreled, so they ......"
"The army of the Grosjavi Empire had already set off, but it was severely warned by the top of the Qingqiu Empire, so His Royal Highness the regent had to announce the withdrawal of the fleet and maintain neutrality, so as not to be attacked on both sides."
"The legions of the Bushram Long Alliance have arrived at the border, but the famous general General Yin Guoxuan, who is recuperating in his hometown, has been urgently recalled by the Imperial Military Department and appointed as the supreme commander of the Southeast Attack Group, so it is impossible for them to do much!"
"Although the Stygian Federation has sent troops, they obviously do not intend to move the idea of the Human Empire, but to attack the east and west, and pack up their long-cherished enemies! It is said that the two families are fighting now! ”
The hall was quiet, and many henchmen were stunned by this sudden news!
Speaking of which, they still underestimated the influence of human civilization, and the plan that the high-level leaders of the five ethnic groups had gathered to discuss secretly and carefully formulated had just begun to be implemented, and they were hit head-on, so that it was an embarrassing situation that was difficult to end now.
"In other words, we're on our own now, right?" Sagusnoch asked slowly.
Verax shook his head and said: "Although the situation is extremely unfavorable to us, it is not without good news at all, after all, the Anthropocene realm is not monolithic, although the Huaxia Empire is dominant, but there are several other human countries to check and balance, although their strength is weaker, as long as we use it well, the critical moment may not be able to play its due role." ”
"Then there is the news from our intelligence organization within the Huaxia Empire, the 'Dark Nightmare', saying that those powerful people have agreed to start secret activities, intending to end the war as soon as possible, and will not let the scale of this border conflict expand! Well...... The premise is that we can't do anything that overstimulates the upper echelons of the empire anymore! ”
"In that case, so be it!" Sagusnoch made a quick decision,
"Order all the raiding fleets, as well as all the occupation forces stationed in the major star fields, to move closer to the camp! Time should be quick, and if necessary, you can even discard some of the loot that is too bulky. ”
"Two days later, we will retreat in full!"
……
Border, Moncy Star Field.
The Gambino people's multiple occupation armies in the nearby star field had all converged, and just as they were about to retreat, the main force of the Imperial legion happened to arrive, and they were blocked at once, and a big battle broke out!
The furious marshal personally commanded the operation, and in the first wave of the attack, 300,000 warships, laser cannons, particle cannons, space concentrating cannons, cation plasma cannons... Billions of beams of destruction fill the void!
Accompanying the Imperial Legion on the expedition are dozens of large mobile interstellar fortresses, which are also sent out to participate in the battle at this moment, each fortress is equipped with as many as thirty planetary-level destruction main guns, these terrifying killing weapons with a diameter of 35 meters, when launched at full power, are said to be able to penetrate an asteroid at one time!
After the charge is completed, a salvo is a direct vaporization of hundreds of warships by the terrifying high temperature in an instant! The people inside didn't even have a chance to escape!
The void is littered with the wreckage of destroyed warships, broken mechs, space fighters, and spherical rescue pods, as well as the corpses of officers and soldiers killed in battle!
"Surround these dog crumbs, strive for total annihilation, and not a single battleship can be let go!" The marshal commanded fiercely.
At this time, the Imperial Legion had an absolute advantage in both quality and quantity, and it was natural to implement the marshal's order, and several fleets attacked separately, and soon cut off the channel behind the Gambino Legion, sealing all the wormholes and star gates, forming a "turtle in the urn".
In the melee, the mechs and ability legions of both sides begin to play an important role! The fighters of the Mecha Legion are equipped with pocket high-speed thrusters and heavy ship slashers that are tens of meters long, which can effectively break through the energy shield of the Gambino battleship and deliver devastating strikes to the vital parts of the ship's hull!
The equipment of the Alien Legion Warrior can easily break through the protection of ordinary warships! In this way, while protecting your own fleet, inflicting as much damage as possible on the enemy fleet has become the task of both armies!
A large number of paraphiles fought in the void, and the mecha knights appeared and disappeared in the dense wreckage of the battleship, rushed out after spotting the target, and hit the thruster part with a heavy blow, and then retreated sharply, hiding in the wreckage, leaving behind a blazing fireball!
The fierce battle lasted for more than an hour, and the Gambino fleet, which had been crushed from the beginning of the battle, had shrunk by half, and the morale of the remaining fleet was almost broken, and the commander who led the team had to issue a request for surrender.
"These guys have water in their brains? I even want to surrender! Xue Cangyun sneered.
According to past practice, racial wars have always been the result of life and death, and it is impossible for this war to end early until one side is completely wiped out. One side allows the other to surrender, and such a situation is almost non-existent, unless there is a special reason.
According to the marshal's plan, it is only right to continue the march after the elimination of these aliens as soon as possible, so he does not intend to consider accepting them.
The adjutant had a different opinion: "Your Excellency, their transport fleet still has a large number of captured Imperial citizens, and our task now is not only to eliminate this group of aliens, but also to find a way to free as many of our compatriots as possible." So, agree to their request for the time being, and wait until the war is over! ”
Xue Cangyun frowned and thought about it, and nodded lightly: "It's okay, then so be it!" Order them to stop resisting, and all officers and men leave the ship and be reorganized! ”
As soon as the order to surrender was given, all the UFO battleships immediately ceased their resistance and remained in place, the thrusters were extinguished, the main gun and secondary muzzles were closed, and the fire control system was locked. Then all the Gambino warriors rushed out of the gate, lined up in the void, waiting for the Imperial officers and soldiers to come and receive them.
Soon, the statistics of the results came out, more than 100,000 Gambino ships were destroyed, and the number of captured was about the same, while the losses of the Imperial Legion were less than a fifth of the opponent's.
The biggest gain was the more than 40 million Imperial civilians hidden in the transport fleet by these aliens, all of whom the Gambino had originally intended to be transported back to the royal court and kept as livestock, but now they have all been rescued.
"Those transport fleets still have a lot of property hidden in them, all of which they have looted and looted from the major star fields, what do you think should be done?" The adjutant asked.
The marshal waved his hand and said, "All the people and property are registered, leave a fleet here to take care of them, report the situation to the Imperial Military Department, and let them send someone to deal with it." Let's hurry up and go after the main force of the Gambinos! ”
"Yes, Your Excellency!"
……
Shayuan star, the night is deep.
In the streets, groups of Gambino warriors were still patrolling their fixed routes, but they were still unaware of the presence of some murderous presence hidden in the darkness.
Xiao Junling hid behind the half-broken wall, slowly wiping the alloy crossbow in his hand, occasionally looking up to look outside, and his deep eyes clearly reflected the figures of those aliens in the distance.
"Something seems wrong!" Yu Xin'er pinned the war knife to her waist, crawled over lightly, and whispered in his ear.
"What's wrong?" He said.
"Don't you think the number of patrols coming out today is much less?" Yu Xin'er said,
"Could this be a deliberate trap? If we're going to do it! ”
Xiao Junling tilted his head slightly, the girl's pretty goose egg face was only a few centimeters away from him, and the warm breath was fragrant, gently stimulating the sensitive area behind his earlobe.
He shrank back quietly, keeping himself away from her, and said, "Maybe it's possible, but I think it's more like something happened to them, and the main manpower has been taken away!" ”
"So what do we do now?" She asked.
