Chapter 107: Gendarmerie City
Fortress No. 2 is naturally different from Fort No. 1, but in the gendarmerie headquarters, it has never been called "Fort No. 1".
The so-called "First Fortress" refers to the Gendarmerie Headquarters itself, which stands at the intersection of Plato's crater and the Alpine valley.
And in the last war, the gendarmerie command earned the title of "fortress that does not fall" for four years of fighting alone.
From the beginning of the war to the surrender of the Moon Government, even when the war situation was most unfavorable to the headquarters of the Earth Coalition Government, that is, after the first decisive battle of the fleet at the Earth-Moon Lagrange Point, the Gendarmerie Command was not captured.
Even because it is backed by Plato's crater and has a sufficient supply of resources, the gendarmerie command can easily contain most of the resources of the moon, so that the outer planetary combined fleet will be like a man in the second decisive battle of the fleet approaching the earth's atmosphere.
In the end, when Lu Yong led the Combined Space Fleet to recapture the lunar surface, the Military Police Command quickly gained the upper hand in the ground operation, and finally crossed the Rain Sea and defeated the main ground forces of the Lunar Command on the southern shore of the Rain Sea.
Of course, this aspect was created at the beginning of the creation of the Gendarmerie Command, which was created to prepare for war, and this is not so much a command as a huge fortress of war.
There is also a large part of the willingness, which is the natural disadvantage of the three outer planet colonies, the inherent sadness.
After all, it is an artificially established ecological environment, and its weak self-recovery ability determines its irreversible shortcomings after destruction, so that it can only take the initiative to attack in war, and there is no possibility of defense.
The headquarters of the United Earth Government can maneuver around with confidence when the Outer Planet Combined Fleet approaches the Earth, even if the United Space Fleet loses 70% of its strength, it doesn't matter, as long as the campaign objectives are completed.
But this is not the case with the Outer Planet Combined Fleet, which has the strategic task of keeping the enemy away thousands of miles away.
The government of the earth can not care about the presence of an enemy main god-class battleship, after all, the main gun of the main god-class battleship is at most condescending to destroy a domain in a certain area of the earth, and the main god-class battleship can fire a maximum of twenty cannons with all its energy even if it does not consider the power rationing.
However, there are twenty-two regions on the earth, and there are thousands of domains and cities, even if the earth does not resist and allows all the main god-class warships of the Outer Planet United Fleet to bombard, the Outer Planet Combined Fleet will not be enough to destroy one region at a time, even if it is as small as the Eleventh and Twelfth Regions.
Since mankind entered the nuclear age more than 600 years ago, it has endured the baptism of various nuclear weapons experiments intensively for more than ten years, and the total energy of these experiments has long exceeded the output of all the main god-class warships of mankind today, but the earth is safe and sound, and it is still the most habitable planet in the universe.
Not so with the Moon, Mars, and Europa.
The moon has only a large body of water, the Sea of Rain; Although Mars is currently the second most habitable planet in the human world after the Earth, the atmosphere is still very unstable, and the circulation of the water system is also very fragile. As for Europa, it is still in the late adjustment stage of interstellar development, and the temperature of the stars half a century ago was still on the verge of habitability.
Although it is very unwilling, the fact is that even if the Outer Planet United Fleet destroys the United Space Fleet, the United Earth Government can withstand the pressure and not surrender, and it can rebuild a fleet in three years.
As long as the Outer Planet Combined Fleet allows a Main God-class battleship to approach their planet, whether it is the Moon, Europa, or Mars, their planet will have to surrender with the entire planet.
As long as the main god-class battleship is aimed at the moon's rain sea, it can easily cause a third-level tsunami, and because all the current human settlement areas on the moon are around the coast of the rain sea, and they are all on the unusually flat moon rock plain, so such a very slight tsunami on the earth is enough to engulf 90% of the moon's human habitation area, causing the death of seven or eight billion people. At that time, what resistance did the moon, which had only two or three hundred million people left, have to resist?
If the main god-class battleship of the earth comes to Mars, although it is more troublesome than the moon, it is nothing more than a matter of two or three more cannons, at that time, the main god-class battleship still has the strength to return to the earth to replenish, and about half of the population on Mars will die, and all the ecosystems will be disordered and dilapidated, what ability can compete with the earth?
And Europa is even simpler, if a main god-class battleship comes to Europa, it doesn't even need to open fire, as long as it intercepts all the spaceships that input resources to Europa, it won't take about a year, and the entire planet of Europa will naturally collapse.
It has been more than 600 years since mankind entered the space age, and more than 400 years and more than 10 generations have passed since the era of the galactic calendar, but this is nothing compared to the billions of years of evolution of the earth.
What's more, it has always been easier to destroy than to build, and the outer planet colonies established by more than ten generations of human beings and more than four hundred years of hard work, as long as the main god-class battleship that took a year to build can fire a cannon of main weapon energy in ten minutes, it can make everything return to the starting point and erase all previous achievements.
Therefore, in the last war, the results of the Combined Space Fleet's battles became more and more tragic each time, but it was able to maneuver with the Outer Planet Combined Fleet again and again. In the end, it only takes one successful raid to end the war in half a year.
This universe has given the most abundant and precious resources to the earth, and the people of the earth are naturally unscrupulous by relying on this God-given favor.
In order to get out of this cradle that has been ruined and filthy by mankind, the ancestors of mankind continued to fight, eliminated all the opposition, and rushed into space without looking back, and entered the galactic calendar.
However, when the war came, people looked back and realized that no matter how cramped and lonely this cradle may be, it was the place where humanity was born, and it was called home. Moreover, this home is very strong and warm compared to the new houses built by these humans.
What a dismal discovery! The Outer Planet Combined Fleet had no choice but to continue the war in such desperation.
Therefore, the Gendarmerie Command, which stands on the top of the Lunar Alps and Plato's crater and lies on the north shore of the Rainy Sea, can obtain the title of "Unfalling Fortress", and its real dependence is not only on the supply of resources in the Platonic Valley, but on the face of the Rainy Sea to make all the moonmen cast rats.
It is not known why the original gendarmerie headquarters was built on the moon long before the outbreak of the war.
War obscures people's memories, and time obfuscates the face of truth, whether or not there was such a consideration, and the current moonmen have recognized it.
Evil earthlings, cunning, insidious, and treacherous evidence of the crime is a little more.
However, the gendarmerie headquarters is located on the side of the mountains and the sea, and it is indeed a first-class war fortress. It's just that there is one disadvantage to this, that is, the terrain is narrow and very cramped.
The basin enclosed by Plato's crater is an open place, hundreds of kilometers longitudinal and horizontal. Unfortunately, many of the secret projects of the Gendarmerie Command were set up here, and long before the Gendarmerie Command was established, it was originally a test base for the headquarters of the Combined Command. In this way, it is not suitable for the situation of people coming and going.
Therefore, the gendarmerie command naturally set its sights on the area between the foothills of Plato's crater and the northern shore of the Rainy Sea.
Fortress No. 2 is located at the foot of Plato's crater, on the north shore of the Rain Sea, and you can see the military police headquarters of the "Unfalling Fortress" when you look up, and turn around to be the first alien man-made ocean in human history - the Rain Sea.
And among the people of the moon, the name of this "Second Fortress" is "Gendarmerie City".
Chang'e City, the former capital of the moon and the third district, is facing the "gendarmerie city" across the rainy sea, and the same lunar meridian passes through the two cities. Now, as the "emperor" of the moon, the "gendarmerie city" has naturally become the de facto capital of the moon, and after a war, the heart of the moon has moved north on the same meridian for nearly 1,000 kilometers.
The angry moon people, naturally, also because of the gendarmerie "black dog", put a lot of contempt on this "No. 2 fortress", black city, kennel, black dog cage......
After all, it was this group of gendarmerie in black uniforms ten years ago who crossed the sea of rain and shattered the hope of the moon's revival, and as for the blood, killing, and war in those memories, they were naturally all attributed to this group of people in black uniforms.
Because, although the memory of the war is still unforgettable, but the objects of hatred are often far away, only these "black-skinned dogs" are close in front of them, staring at every move of the moon people like loyal dogs on the United Peak of the Earth, sniffing every passing moon person, trying to find out the "saboteurs", "violent elements", "terrorists", "extremists" in their mouths, and then they bite their mouths and do not let go.
In the eyes of the moonmen, this is the oppressive rule of the evil earthlings. Otherwise, why is it that the gendarmerie on the rest of the planet is only one or two thousand troops to maintain discipline in the army, but there are only 100,000 or 100,000 gendarmerie on the moon? Even, this is no longer a gendarmerie, the 100,000-strong gendarmerie is involved in all aspects of the moon, they are no longer military discipline pickets, but the real rulers of the moon.
The fact that the "Gendarmerie City" was built across the sea from Chang'e City in the third district shows that the Gendarmerie Command has long coveted the overthrow of the Lunar Coalition Government, stolen all the power of the people of the Moon, and attempted to ride on the heads of the people of the Moon.
Hum! It is not surprising that earthlings are so evil, so insidious and cunning! They have always been wolf ambitions, and they are so greedy and despicable.
Of course, in some ways, the Gendarmerie Command is indeed a puppet of the "evil earthlings" ruling the moon, and a loyal lackey raised by the "Union Peak", because the current gendarmerie command is ready to carry out a huge conspiracy against the moon.
For example, watching the fire from the other side.
Last night, Lu An fiddled with his big toy and came to the rainy sea to see what he saw, which was the preparation of the gendarmerie headquarters to carry out this "huge conspiracy".
After all, watching the fire from the other side has to be on the shore, and it is also necessary to cross the opposite shore where the fire is about to start, and the gendarmerie headquarters has gathered all the gendarmerie teams on the moon, so naturally they don't want to be affected by the other side of the fire.
Today, more than 100,000 gendarmerie are gathering in the "gendarmerie city" on the northern shore of the Xiangyu Sea and at the foot of Plato's crater, ready to watch the huge fire on the opposite bank.
This fashionable and ignorant Lu An, facing the meticulous care along the way, did not know his destination, which was this "No. 2 fortress" by the mountains and seas - the "gendarmerie city" in the population of the moon - now the largest military camp on the moon.
