Duke? Vice Admiral McCanzis, commander of Arthur's vanguard Third Fleet, sent back a message announcing the full capture of the Hermes spaceport. Shortly thereafter, Vice Admiral Bunier, commander of the Fifth Fleet of the guerrilla fleet, also sent a telegram, reporting that he had chosen to occupy the space station first because he had found that there were no enemy troops stationed in the industrial park, and demanded that Duke? Arthur immediately sent troops to take over.

Less than eight hours after arriving in Proxima Centauri, the fleet had already occupied two extremely critical strategic points without even seeing the shadow of an enemy army. Arthur's generals were injected with a booster. For a time, almost all the officers and soldiers of the fleet were laughing at the incompetence of the enemy generals, and the two main generals of the new federation, Patalem and Victor, were completely labeled as cowards. Arthur asks for an immediate attack on the new federal capital, Othello.

Compared with these fleet commanders, whose confidence was unprecedentedly inflated due to easy victories, Duke, as the commander of the fleet? Arthur was obviously much calmer, and he did not blindly think that the enemy army was not capable of fighting because of the enemy's cowardly retreat, but on the contrary, the unexpected retreat of the enemy army made him pay more attention to his opponent, and he began to have an inexplicable worry about the future of this war.

"General, what are you waiting for? The two cowards, Patlem and Victor, don't have the courage to fight us at all, and if you allow me to fight, I can take Othello for you with our Third Fleet alone......"

In the fleet's communication screen, Vice Admiral McCanzi, who had just recaptured the Hermes spaceport, appeared in high spirits, and while declaring his exploits, he tried to convince Duke more than once? Arthur rushes to the planet Othello. In his opinion, it seemed that recovering Othello, which was garrisoned by two mixed fleets and protected by the orbital rings of Othello, would be no effort at all.

Originally, Duke? Arthur was not prepared to suppress the unprecedented high sentiment of his generals to fight, but Lieutenant General McCanzie's chatter and the underdog in his tone made Duke ? Arthur immediately became vigilant, frowned and shouted, "Why, if I don't agree, you are ready to send troops to attack Othello Planet privately?" ”

“……”

By Duke? Arthur's words broke through what he thought in his heart, and Lieutenant General McCanzi's face suddenly looked a little embarrassed.

Truth be told, what if Duke? If Arthur didn't agree, he did intend to secretly let his Third Fleet attack in private. Because he felt that the cowardice of the enemy showed that the other side did not have the courage to fight them at all, then as long as his own troops pointed at him, the enemy army would definitely be crushed. At that time, the merit of recovering the entire Proxima Centauri Star Domain will be taken by him alone, and he can also become the second commander of the kingdom with this feat. Arthur will no longer be an unattainable luxury.

Now, while being Duke? Arthur said a word to break the careful thought in his heart, but Lieutenant General McCanz was still a little unimpressed. What does he think of Duke? Arthur was too careful, and he was not allowed to fight this time, and he felt that there was a sense of suppressing his credit.

Lieutenant General McCanzie is a reckless and undisguised man, and through the change in his expression, Duke? Arthur easily saw through what he was thinking, and snorted coldly: "Think about Simpson, do you think you are stronger than Simpson?" ”

General Simpson, who was defeated at the hands of the new Union General Patelem, is also a famous federal general, second only to the famous Duke in terms of prestige? Arthur is also the military henchman that Ansel relies on the most. In terms of personal military literacy, Simpson is in no way inferior to Duke? Arthur, this is a fact recognized by the generals of the Union military, and he has a relationship with Duke? Arthur's only gap, is Duke? In addition to being an excellent commander, Arthur is also the Knight Captain of the Twin Star Knights, the strongest force in the Federation, and it is precisely because of this gap that Lieutenant General Victor was able to kill General Simpson by assassination, which gave Patlaim the opportunity to add a very prominent stroke to his personal resume.

Duke? Arthur mentioned General Simpson's defeat and death at this moment, originally wanting to give Lieutenant General McCands a warning, but he didn't expect Lieutenant General McCanzim to disagree at all, and responded disdainfully: "Simpson's defeat is caused by the betrayal of the villain Victor, and the villains of the New Federation will only win through such despicable means, and they don't have the courage to fight us head-on." ”

"Idiot~"

Lieutenant General McCanzie's stubbornness suddenly made Duke? Arthur was furious, and he suddenly stood up like an angry lion, and roared, "Haven't you studied the whole story of that battle well? Will the person who can turn defeat into victory in such an unfavorable situation will be an incompetent person who does not dare to respond to the enemy? Fools, the reason why they gave away the Hermes spaceport and the space station industrial park for nothing is precisely because you will be underestimated by this, so as to lure fools like you into the trap that the other party has already laid out. If you set off with your fleet now, I can guarantee that in a few hours, you and your 100,000 officers and men will be on the list of the dead~"

“……”

Duke? Arthur's anger has an inexplicable deterrent effect, even if it is only through the communication screen, Lieutenant General McCanziz can clearly feel Duke? Arthur's astonishing arrogance. At this moment, this invisible deterrent made Lieutenant General McCanz tremble and speechless.

"Watch your words and deeds, Lieutenant General McKanzi~" glared at McCanzie with a warning look, Duke? Arthur pointed to the golden twin star emblem on his right shoulder: "If you dare to act rashly, you know what will happen." ”

“……”

Duke? Arthur's naked threat suddenly made Lieutenant General McCanzi's expression change, he understood that Duke? Arthur's warning was not empty words. Duke? The Twin Knights squad that Arthur had planted on the flagships of each fleet had become his greatest reliance on this warning, and Vice Admiral McCanz had no doubt that if he dared to act on his own, the murderous, demonic knightly squad would not hesitate to take his head.

And the privilege of using force to intimidate the commanders of the fleets and give the disciplined forces of the knight squads is Duke? A vast net that Arthur had laid as he assembled this vast patchwork fleet.

Nominally, these twin Knights squads, which are placed on the flagships of each fleet, are the last bulwark against the sharp knives and the decapitation of the enemy from surprise attacks. But in fact, their real role is to control the commanders of the fleets, to strengthen Duke? Arthur's overall control of the fleet.

In terms of the current situation in the Raymond Kingdom, the political situation is complicated, and various forces are clinching against each other. And this political struggle also affected the army, so that there were also factions in the army. Duke? Arthur knew very well that although the current huge fleet was recruited by Anse Els, there must have been a number of officers in the various fleets who had been recruited by Robert? Rockefeller and Simon? DuPont's purchase, so the internal precautions cannot be ignored. And to establish absolute leadership with the force of the Knights of the Twin Stars above everyone, this is Duke? Arthur's first condition for victory.

Duke? Arthur would not allow any opposition to him in the fleet, and if Vice Admiral McKands dared to disobey his will again, he would not mind killing a Lieutenant General in the kingdom to cool the restlessness that was gradually spreading in the fleet, and thus establish his intransigible hard-line style in the army.

At the moment, feel Duke? Arthur's murderous aura was as rich as substance, no matter how reckless Lieutenant General McKanth was, he would not dare to disobey Duke at such a moment? Arthur... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ］
