Volume 10 Chapter 74 Flowers Bloom on the Other Side

Thirty years ago, when Hastings stood on a bleak battlefield like blood at sunset, leaving the world with a thin and majestic back, and a famous quote that is enshrined as a sacred text by the contemporary military. In order to avoid being dragged down by a strategically impossible war, the Binalt Empire reluctantly and humiliatingly signed the alliance under the city.

On behalf of the combat troops who laid down their arms, it was Sober's father who bent down and bowed his head to sign the instrument of surrender.

The pattern of the human world has settled after a short but violent collision.

Over the past 30 years, the Republic of Fiyan has been outstanding, and the warships with the flag of the Fijian allies have crisscrossed the seas and flaunted their might.

At that time, Sober was just a teenager.

As depicted in many novels, in order to regain the honor of his family, in order to avenge his depressed father, in order to defeat the enemies of that empire, the genius boy became a soldier and climbed up step by step.

Thirty years ago, no one thought that this teenager was qualified or had a chance to fight Hastings. Twenty years ago, or even ten years ago, no one believed that Sobor would face Hastings.

Thirty years is not a long time. Peace seems to have just begun.

Although the two camps are always in tension over the Supreme United Council of Mankind, no one does not believe that anyone dares to start a war.

Especially the Fijian people. When they drove the starship full of cargo and saw the Feiyang warships proudly passing through the interstellar channel, everyone even once the Fiyan Alliance would be strong forever, and this peace would continue until the end of the universe.

However, war broke out.

From the Great Patriotic War of the Southeastern Leray Federation, all at once it turned into a world war.

From that moment on, everyone understood that there must be a battle between Sobo and Hastings

No one could say for sure what day it would be, though. Likewise, no one can know what the world will be like when that day comes

Time passes.

The day that was out of reach in people's eyes became this day.

On this day, fireworks suddenly exploded in the universe

On the left flank, in front of the black [Deimos] star, the Phantom Fleet Patrol Cluster and the oncoming Xiyo Patrol Cluster were like two blooming Manshu Sawa flowers, and at the same time, thousands of petals suddenly stretched out in the air.

It was a beautiful and spectacular sight that dazzled everyone.

Although people have imagined the magnificent scene of this moment countless times, the unbridled imagination has collapsed in the face of reality.

"It's Art"

Lieutenant General Macchia looked at the Skynet screen in a daze.

In the telescope lens in front of him, a Philian cruiser was raising its bow high, pulling out an arc of blue tail light. Because there is no close comparison of references, from the lens, it seems to be frozen in the void of the universe together with the bright stars and colorful nebulae in the distance.

Next to this cruiser was another identical cruiser, the Filan cruiser. The same high bow, the same curved tail trajectory, the only difference is the direction of progress.

Two cruisers, left and right separated. The original very close ion ** flow trajectory, like the spark of fireworks, is getting farther and farther apart.

In the endless void of the universe, they are so small, so slow.

However, when the television lens suddenly zoomed out, countless identical and insignificant warships overshadowed the entire starry sky with beautiful and dazzling arc streamers

This is the first time Hastings and Sauber have met. Two of the most outstanding and talented military strategists in the human world finally stood on their respective command seats, and collided together in this chaotic era filled with gunpowder and artillery fire

"Exquisite and unbelievable" Fujii Gang looked at the Skynet screen with the same obsessive eyes, his hands were clutching the railing of the command platform because of nervousness and excitement, and the green tendons on the back of his hands skyrocketed, "This is the real [wolf pack] tactics In the command of the space fleet we learned in school, the most basic and simple wolf pack tactics are compared with the command skills of His Excellency the Marshal, the patterns and rules of the battle examples in the textbook are simply bullshit"

As talented generals trained by the Lane military, Machia and Fujii Tsuyoshi are both high-achieving students from orthodox military academies. They are naturally familiar with the basic tactics of fleet command such as [Wolf Pack].

This tactic originated more than 300 years ago.

At that time, the space fleet battle, precisely because of the increase in the speed and defense of the battleship, developed from long-range salvo to close-range strangulation of the driving group. This tactic also came into being. Its main tactical idea is to use scattered and interrelated movement routes to seize attack positions and destroy the enemy's overall formation when driving patrol groups to engage in battle. So as to achieve the purpose of suppressing, cutting, and annihilating the opponent.

Since the fleet will disperse to different airspace when performing this tactic, each with different tasks such as yin*, harassment, main attack, and feint attack. When the attack is launched, it is one wave after another, attacking in groups, similar to the way wolves fight when they kill large prey, so this tactic is vividly named the [wolf pack] tactic.

In the eyes of most officers, there is nothing unusual about wolf pack tactics. Many people even believe that the use of wolf pack tactics in battle is a very tasteless thing.

Although these low-level tactics, which were born 300 years ago and studied in the lower grades of military academies, have evolved and supplemented over the years, they cannot be compared with those high-level compound tactics that require extremely high tactical cultivation to learn and use.

On its body, it will always be labeled as popular tactics, basic subjects, and so on.

In actual combat application, the commanders only ordered the implementation of wolf pack tactics when the fleet had an absolute advantage and was too lazy to bother.

After such an order is given, they usually do not command again. Instead, the commanders of the fleets under their command were left to their own devices. After all, this kind of tactic is just a few tricks back and forth, but it is just a group attack, tearing the opponent, tearing up the formation, seizing the attack position, firing wantonly, not to mention the fleet commander and captain, even if it is a low-level staff officer, he can master it skillfully.

But today, the wolf pack tactics in Hastings' hands completely subvert their notion

If the wolf pack tactics in the textbook are just a dull and rudimentary puppet, then Hastings's command has made this puppet completely come to life.

Macchia and Fujii Tsuyoshi and other Filipino Alliance generals could clearly see from the Skynet screen that when the five double-headed eagle*-class fleets commanded by Lechte were bypassing [Debos], the fleet was still in a standard group formation. The distance between the driving patrol group in the front and the main formation of battleships in the rear did not exceed five hundred kilometers. The front and back steps are coordinated and uniform. It looked like a parade of troops marching through the square.

This is not surprising.

The Phantom Fleet assembled by Hastings, as the family force of the god of war, was in some ways even more well-trained than the Falcon fleet of the Feiyang military. Not only are its warships strictly in accordance with the configuration of the double-headed eagle fleet, but even the soldiers in it are experienced veterans who have retired from the double-headed eagle fleet.

The subtlety is the change

As Hastings pointed out the coordinates on the tactical computer, the Filipino fleet that suddenly exploded like fireworks scattered. The route and angle of each battleship sailed happened to be the closest attack position to itself, and it was also the most uncomfortable place for the oncoming Western fleet.

It was like a pack of hungry wolves hunting bison, seizing the attack position next to the prey in an instant, posing, opening the bloody mouth, preparing to attack the shoulder blades, abdomen, tail, neck, and back, except for no one who stayed in front of the bison to meet its sharp horns.

Five *-class fleets, with a total of 600 destroyers, that is, 60 destroyers

With so many formations, it is unimaginable for ordinary people to complete such a tactical action at the same moment and with the same perfect line angle. Ordinary commander, capable of commanding up to twenty formations at once. And to want such a 100% perfect completion rate is even more fantastic.

That's the command technique.

A simple wolf pack tactic, in the hands of Hastings, turns decay into magic, and it is a lore in the face

Whether it was Macchia, Tsuyoshi Fujii or other Fijian generals, there was no doubt at this moment. If it was him who played against Hastings, he would have lost his qualification to win without fighting to move on to the next stage

However, Hastings' opponent is Sauber.

The only military genius recognized by the human world as qualified to challenge Hastings, at this moment, chose the same tactics.

The nine Western*-class fleets, 1,000 and 80 destroyers, and one hundred and eight destroyer formations exploded, bloomed, and spread almost simultaneously with the Ghost fleet's fleet fleet

Although not every one of these fleets is perfectly positioned. However, judging from the scene, Sobo lived up to his prestige. Not only did he give the coordinates of more than 100 patrol formations at the same time, but also as many as 90 of them were perfectly aligned

What a horrible command technique?

Although the total number of patrol formations commanded by Hastings was only sixty, the 100% perfect movement showed that the old man still had a higher strength. However, Sober's performance still made the Filipino Alliance generals present feel a sense of powerlessness from the bottom of their hearts.

If, before today, many people still thought that Lever was Sober's opponent, then when this scene appeared in front of them, everyone was only glad that the Filipino League still had Hastings. Even Tsuyoshi Fujii, who admires Li Buddha the most, is no exception

It's a blessing in fear. No one dared to imagine who would be able to stop Sober when Filipina lost Hastings

In the void, two fireworks that suddenly exploded bloomed into thousands of sparks, intertwined with each other.

With the simultaneous salvo of battleship clusters behind him, a huge white light cluster suddenly formed a vertical and horizontal light network.

Wandering, fighting, artillery fire, annihilation.

In the past 30 years, this flower of fate and hatred has bloomed in the southeast starry sky
