Fake Heroes Volume VII Chapter 112 Huishi (VIII

One battleship after another. In the light of the stars. Graceful giant white planets.

A streamer. From the bow of a battleship. Cut through the hard, cold outer armor of the ship's hull. Long secondary gun barrels and rotating radars on the bridge information tower. Flowing through the stern of the ship. A moment later. Again appeared in the bow of the next battleship.

Battleships are dense from sparse to dense. More and more. It's getting bigger and bigger. All elegant. It's all in this endless emergence. Disappeared without a trace.

The whole white planet. It seems to have been covered by this figure that covers the sky and the sun. It was a swarm of ruthless steel locusts. They pressed against the starry sky. Bring a chill.

"Assault reconnaissance ship. Where is it now? ”

Humphrey from a black leather cigarette case. Pull out a cigarette with a long blue filter. Flick your fingers. A flame that flickered like magic with your fingertips. lit a cigarette. He loves magic. From the age of seven, he studied magic with a master magician. Until now. None of them were dropped.

"Your Excellency. Reconnaissance ship No. 1. It's close to the Longbow Galaxy's jump point. The staff officer, who was standing beside Humphrey, bowed and replied. To the flame that danced between Han Lei's fingers. He's already seen it.

Do not call the general. And the title is knighted. It's a tradition of the Humphrey family. This is the old aristocracy of the Binarte Empire. Three hundred years ago. Lord Humphrey' and Emperor Binarte were brothers. Three hundred years later. The family is still pampered. Among the only ten dukes. Duke Humphrey ranked third. It is enough to show the size and strength of this family.

For hundreds of years. The Humphrey family. It has long been integrated with the Binalt Empire. Whether it's politics. Economic or military. This family can be found everywhere.

Chancellor of the Exchequer. Minister of Defense. Captain of the Royal Guard. Rector of the First University of National Defense. First Minister of Foreign Affairs. All of them have been seen by the Humphrey family. But. These. It doesn't represent the prominence of the Humphreys. The Humphreys are the most feared. It is the two Royal Elephant-class fleets in your hands, the Flying Feather Fleet and the Flying Feather Fleet!

The Elephant fleet of the Binart Empire. There are twenty in total. Though. These fleets are all royal forces. All officers and soldiers were required to pledge unlimited allegiance to the royal family of Binart. But. For hundreds of years. Chief officer of eight of these fleets. It has always been the patriarch of the four families. And Tom Huver|. is the patriarch of this generation of the Humphrey family. Hereditary duke. Imperial Admiral. He is also the chief officer of the Flying Feather fleet.

Say that there are two fleets of Fei Ling and Fei Yu. He was a private soldier of the Humphrey family. Not bad at all. Except that the Imperial Royalty had the means to control these two fleets. No one should try to hit the attention of these two fleets. To know. All the officers in these two fleets. All of them are from the Humphreys. There are many of them. It's been several generations of service for the Humphrey family.

So. On both fleets. A salutation of Humphrey. Only the duke. And there are no generals.

Humphrey's slender fingers. Gently turning the cigarette. Eye. He didn't leave the interstellar map in front of him for a moment. on the interstellar map. Arrows have been densely labeled. Data and circles. These logos. Humphrey's eyes beating. It's like a planet. One channel after another. Patches of nebulae. Asteroid belts

Douglas Humphrey chewed silently on the last name.

Few people know. Many years ago. When Humphrey was a major. It was once in a multi-event exchange. Met Douglas.

Then. He didn't see Douglas as his opponent. His gaze. has been staying on the body of Li Fo, a famous general of the Yang Republic. Until the last military exercises. A battalion led by Douglas. Blocked a regiment that he had been invincible from the beginning of the exercise.

That war. The young Douglas was in charge of the blockade. He was at that time. It's just a fledgling junior officer. Although some results were taken. There are also some talents. But. In the talent-rich Fiyan exchange group. Not surprisingly. In a real combat confrontation. He was placed on a flank line of the Red Army. Responsible for defending against sneak attacks by the Blues from this direction.

And at that time. Humphrey. It's already coming to the fore. As the heir to the future Duke of Humphrey. Even though he was a major at the time. And no one dared to despise him. Until then. His combat achievements. It is also enough for many people to understand. This is an unstoppable superstar of the future.

The exercise started from the very beginning. It seems to prove this as well.

Humphrey's armored regiment. Take advantage of the time difference between the opponent's handover and a gap in the chart. First rushed into the defensive circle of the Red Army from the south to the north. Then it made a big circle to the west. Attracted and shook off the encirclement and interception of the three main regiments of the Red Army. Eliminated one of the logistics bases of the Red Army. Then swoop straight into the flank of the main forces of the Red Army. This strategic plan. Once that happens. The Red Army is engaged in a strategic decisive battle with the Blues. will collapse because of the holes in the right-wing defense. More seriously. Command of the Red Army. There is also a possibility that Humphrey's armored regiment will be eliminated in one fell swoop.

In that case. The people of Feiyang have a lot of fun.

Humphrey at the time. It is easy to command his troops and be invincible all the way. He was determined to embarrass Yangren. For him. This humiliation has nothing to do with it. It's totally a lot of fun to play.

Who knows. On the route of travel he chose. Douglas. Commanded an armored battalion. in a high. A line of defense was laid.

It's this line of defense. In Humphrey's presence. It was blocked for ten hours. Dozens of attacks in turn from an entire armor unit. All blocked back. The one that is high. It has become an insurmountable barrier. Humphrey was frustrated in his fifth attack. Already at the front. Personally command the battle. The entire electronic sandbox was almost scratched by the electronic actuator in his hand.

Outflank. Storm. Even which class arrived at which location at what time. The choice of a firepower breakthrough. Timing of the investment of reserves. Humphrey took the trouble to explain carefully. Outcome. Still couldn't break through that line of defense. When it was known that the three armored regiments of the Red Army were encircled and intercepted. When it's not far from you. He gave up the attack. Dazzling strategic goals that will be set before everything. Turned into a safe encirclement of their own troops.

It's almost the difference between heaven and hell.

For so many years. The drill Humphrey always remembers. Knowledge after the end of the exercise. That battalion commanded by Douglas. When he chose to retreat. In fact, there are no left

Finish. Attack again. Perhaps. There is no regret in the world for a strategic setback. Much to Humphrey's frustration. All these years. Douglas. was the first one who made it impossible for him to break through. And the only one.

And now. This person. After the tall one. It's in the Longbow galaxy again. Again in front of himself.

Humphrey's gaze fell on the irregular shape of the Longbow Galaxy. I couldn't leave for a long time. He stared at the airspace. Just like all those years ago. He used a telescope. Gazing at the smoke of the high.

That year. He was twenty-six years old. Douglas. Twenty-two years old!

"Your Excellency. Recon Ship 1 has arrived at the Longbow jump point. Request a launch probe. The voice of the staff officer. From Humphrey's ear.

Cigarette. It's only half burned.

"Hmm." Humphrey nodded faintly. Douglas. You won't let yourself down. If he sends a fleet to block the space jump point and tries to defend it. So. For so many years. I was haunted by the failure of that acting. It's ridiculous.

Time. Minute by minute. In silence. A message suddenly flashed on the command computer.

"Report to the Duke. The other side of the jump point. No trace of the Fyan fleet was found! The voice of the staff officer. There was some surprise that could not be concealed. He understood. Why would the Feiyang people abandon the defense of the jump point. Although in the empty domain of the jump zone. The Fyan fleet was easily dragged into a decisive battle. But. In those minutes when the jump of the Binarte fleet ended. They have an absolute advantage!

Humphrey smiled. He knows. I met it myself. A worthy opponent who goes all out of himself.

This time. It's a fateful showdown. Not a drill.

"Command the fleet. Accelerate immediately. Within six hours. Complete the jump. Our opponents. It's ready. It's waiting for us. ”

"I'm dying!" The fat man looked at the interstellar map that made him dizzy. I can't hate to bump into it.

He never dreamed of it. The fleet of the Binarte Empire. will appear at this time. If it's the fleet of the Jay Empire. So. The Tibetan Front Fleet was 99 percent sure that it would meet the longbow with the bandit fleet. You can even take advantage of the fire to rob. When Jeppen and Fei Yang were in full swing. Sneak in for a moment.

And then everyone swept up some loot. The happy girl ran away.

But now. Fei Yang had just attacked the Blue Stone Star for less than sixty hours. The Binalt Imperial fleet is already approaching the Longbow system. This means two things. First. It is likely that the Fyan fleet will leave or be defeated before the Hidden Front fleet reaches the Longbow system. Second. Since Celestial had the addition of the Binarte Imperial fleet. So. Their strength in the Southeast Star Field. will occupy an absolute advantage. Mikami Yuu can take the Binalte Emperor Fleet as the vanguard. The Jeppen fleet, which was originally used against the Fyan fleet. As a rear army. Pressing the Longbow Galaxy.

In that case. The entire fairway. Will be stuffed with the Western Covenant fleet. Tibetan front fleet. There is basically no possibility of sneaking out of the Bermuda galaxy! Once they appear at the jump point of the Bermuda galaxy to the common galaxy. So. It will be pursued by a large number of Jeppen fleets. What to rob while the fire is on. It's all wishful thinking. Even if it's Russell and the little kids. Can defeat Jeppen's fleet. That would also come at a huge cost.

And the fat man. I just don't want to pay a little price!

Tibetan front fleet. It was already Leray's last and most valuable force. The reason why it is named Zangfeng. That's what you have to hide. Dormant for so long. As soon as the photo was in a hurry. Hide a fart. Just change the name to Bright Sword!

The fat man frowned here. Margaret was also full of thoughts.

No one knows Feiyan's layout in the southeast better than she does. Nineteenth Fleet under Douglas. It is the first-class elite fleet of the Republic of Fiyan. Outstanding achievements. Against Jay's fleet. As long as the number is not too disparity. With Douglas's commanding skills. Always at ease.

But now. It was the royal elephant-class fleet of the Binarte Empire. The number is unknown. This means: Even if Douglas was able to defeat the Royal Fleet of the Binalter Empire in battle. It can face the battleships of the Western Covenant that are swarming from behind. Hold the Longbow Galaxy for two months, contain the strategic goal of the West Covenant and unable to go north. It will not be possible to achieve it.

Don't. Just give up here?

This question. Appears in the minds of both Fat Man and Margaret. The two couldn't help but glance at each other. He immediately twisted his head. Margaret snorted. This rag fleet. Even if you join the battle. It doesn't help! The other side. The fat man is as proud as a fat rooster. A cry from the bottom of my heart. Please. Please.

"What should I do?" Fang Xiang looked at the fat man. Asked softly.

The fat man paced back and forth a few steps. Turning around, he strode to the electronic sandbox in the war room. Bring up the interstellar map of the Longbow Galaxy. Fang Xiangdao, who followed closely, said, "You are most familiar with it here." If Douglas were to fight the Binalter Imperial fleet. Where will they choose as a battlefield? ”

"Here. Here and here! Fang Xiang stretched out her finger without thinking. Three airspace coordinates are indicated. Then he explained: "Hold the longbow system. It is necessary to prevent the West from re-establishing a forward base on the Blue Stone. And can threaten the Blue Stone Star. There is plenty of room to maneuver. There are only these three. ”

The fat man made a gesture. Let Fang Xiang continue.

"The Longbow Galaxy is made up of hundreds of millions of planets. It's about one-thousandth the size of the Milky Way. The blue stone star is located on its A-arm. Three major jumping points and two more immigrant planets. It's all on this spiral arm. It is distributed in a triangular pattern. He said. Fang Xiang's finger. Landing on the airspace she was the first to point out: "This is the Vine Nebula between the Blue Stone Star and the jump point to the main passage and the Bermuda Galaxy, which is where we are now." Because there is a nebula obscuring it. Dozens of complex obstacle areas are connected together. It is a natural guerrilla spot. What's more. Over here. Closest to Blue Stone. If the Jan fleet enters here. You can come out of any of the obstacle areas. For the Westlö fleet trying to land on Bluestone to rebuild its base. is a threat that cannot be ignored. ”

The fat man nodded. Hearing Fang Xiang point to another airspace and continue, "This is the Blue Stone Star and the second

The passage between the stars of the ball buckle. Because there is only one jump channel. The fleet has another choice. That is to hold the channel. Confrontation with Western Covenant. If you look at it from the strategic goals of Jan. This choice. Perhaps more acceptable than the first option. This transition channel. Located between stars and stars. Gravitational darkness is all around. There is also an obstacle area made up of asteroid belts. It is a natural interstellar blocking array. The only flaw is. The button star is located at the end of the spiral arm. It's a dead one. Once the jump path is lost. There will be no strategic maneuver to spare. ”

The "third option" Fang Xiang's hand. Landed on a tiny planet. Suddenly there was silence.

"How?" The fat man asked.

"This is Torrecleus," Fang looked up. A pair of clear eyes looked at the fat man fixedly: "The population is only three million." It is a semi-natural and semi-artificial modified planet. Half a year ago. Over here. It is the basis of our longbow of the square fleet. ”

The fat man did not speak. He knows. Fang Xiang has been on the small planet on the interstellar chart. evokes the sadness that has just been calmed down. At this time. Ren comforted. It's all so low and pale. It's like. Someday by yourself. Back to the battered Leray. It's like going back to your own home.

Fang Xiang quickly adjusted her emotions. And then he said, "Torrecles." Located between the Blue Stone Star and the Bermuda Passage jump point. Be on the edge of arm A. The white ursa minor constellation to which it belongs has a complex environment. The maneuver range is greater than the first airspace just mentioned. Moreover. There are dozens of jump lanes criss-crossed. Once the Young fleet is here. Not only can you get supplies in Torrecles. It can also threaten the Blue Stone Star and the Main Channel jump point at any time. You can even rely on Torrecles. as a blocking array. Confronting West. ”

"Sister Xiang. What do you think of the Fyan fleet. Which airspace will be chosen? The fat man's gaze. Walk back and forth between the three airspaces. The look on his face. It is a hard-to-see seriousness.

"It's hard to choose," Fang Xiang looked at Margaret on the side. smiled slightly: "This." The least familiar with General Douglas. I'm afraid it's me. The most I can do is give some advice. As for what choice General Douglas will make. I can't guess. in this regard. Ji has more to say. ”

"She?" The fat man glanced at Margaret with disdain. Flesh on the face. I shook rhythmically. That look. It was enough to make Margaret shoot him in the face with hatred: "How could she possibly know? ”

"You think that's the kind of agitation. Does it work for me? Margaret sneered.

"Let me tell you two facts. First. We allies. Now we are discussing how we can help your fleet of Fiyan. Second. No matter what method is used. You will say. As a military man. I don't believe you're going to be vindictive and ignore the bigger picture. The fat man looked angry. Said leisurely: "I knew you would say." It also uses the method of agitation. Actually, it's not for you to say. It's for the sake of disgusting you. ”

In the war room. There was a dead silence. Fang Xiang lowered her head. Hand rubbing the sun**. I don't know if it's a headache for the relationship between these two. I still want to cover my hand with my hand, which I can't help laughing.

The "fat" angry Margaret with a flushed face. Gritted his teeth, he said, "You're really naïve!" ”

The fat man heard the praise. A snickering face.

Gretel was too lazy to take care of this retribution. A fat man who has been with his nose and eyes since the beginning of the ring match. A face said to Fang Xiang: "I think." General Douglas. The greatest possible. Yes, the third airspace is selected. ”

"Oh?" Fang Xiang glanced at the thoughtful fat man without a trace. "Why?" he asked. ”

"General Douglas fought meticulously and cautiously. Definitely will not choose the second airspace. Although Snapstring is the second largest colonizing planet in the Longbow Galaxy. It also has a natural interstellar blocking array. But. He's not going to put himself in danger. I won't choose to break the boat. This one. Can be excluded. And the first airspace. Although there are more than a dozen contiguous obstacle areas and the West Fleet maneuvering. It's very close to the Blue Stone Star. But. Here it is not conducive to the simultaneous movement of four A-class fleets. Distance from the Blue Stone Star. It's also a double-edged sword. Once the Blue Stone Star was under the control of the Western Covenant. It will become the basis for the advance of the 19th Group Fleet to be annihilated. ”

Glitter stands in front of the interstellar map. Fingers move across the interstellar map. The analysis in his mouth was meticulous: "So." The best option. It's the second airspace. In addition to having jump lanes and obstacle zones. It can be used outside of strategic maneuver. What's more. General Douglas, who excels in defense. It can rely on this small planet and the complex environment around it. The battle with the West Covenant. Such. On the fulfillment of the strategic goals of the joint command. And there was a greater surplus. ”

The fat man pricked up his ears. While listening to Margaret's analysis. While looking at the interstellar map in front of you. Margaret's voice just fell. He pointed to a barrier mark on the star map next to Torrecles and asked Fang Xiang, "Where is this?" ”

Fang Xiang glanced at Fang on the fat man's fingers. He replied, "This is a rocky barrier area." It is an asteroid belt on Torrekras' way to Resource One. The frequent mining ships call this rocky area. The name was still used. This barrier area is not large. If the battleship is moving at full speed. It only takes a minute or two to cross. No one lives at all.

And. It is full of asteroids with a diameter of less than a kilometer. Nor can it be used as a blocking array. ”

"Oh?" The fat man zoomed in on the interstellar map. Stared with interest at this airspace with large and small floating rocks.

"If Celestial passes through here. Maybe we can set up an ambush here. "Fat man's fingers. Gently pull on the virtual light curtain. The interstellar map is zoomed in again. A few brownish-yellow boulders. Slowly spinning on the screen.

Fang Xiang's eyes. Follow the fat man's fingers all the way. When a Western fleet crosses this obstacle zone. The route of travel that will inevitably be chosen and the formation that may be chosen appear in front of you. She couldn't help but be shocked: "You mean the center blooms? ”

"Capture the thief and capture the king first" The fat man gritted his teeth.

Tibetan front fleet. Not all hopes. It's all pinned on the Fyan fleet. We can't wait for the Jay fleet to flood into the Longbow system. The only hope. It is to take advantage of the gap between the Binalte Imperial fleet and the Jay fleet. Complete the traverse.

It's a risky move. Take the current situation in Bermuda. The Tibetan front fleet because of the chance of being discovered. Higher than

Ninety. Other words. Once the Tibetan front breaks through Bermuda jump point. Under the pursuit of men. And at this time. If the Binalte Imperial ship returns to block the jump point of the Longbow system. That means: The Tibetan Front fleet is almost depleted of supplies. There will be no escape.

I want to give life to the Tibetan Front fleet. It is necessary to make the Binalt Imperial fleet unable to return to the jump point. In other words. It is to let the Jan fleet entangle. Or beat!

Sound. It's certainly easier to entangle than to beat. But. For the bandits. This is not the case. The fat man did not count on the fleet of Feiyan, which was on the defensive or wandering. Will take the initiative to entangle the Binalt fleet. After all. In that case. The Fyan fleet was easily dragged into a decisive battle by the enemy. This risk. Douglas wouldn't take the plunge. So. Enough to rely on. Only yourself!

And with the current number and strength of the bandit fleet. Wants to entangle the Binalte Imperial fleet. That's a fool's dream.

Therefore. When the fat man saw the asteroid belt. in the head. There was only one thought left. That's to take out their flagship!

It was a crazy decision. Fang Xiang saw the fat man's teeth. I just thought he was going to kill the killer. But I don't know this federal hero. has always been greedy for life and afraid of death. It's just that he was driven to a dead end. It's just a gamble.

That gnashed its teeth. It's just muscles that make my face tremble. It just doesn't seem so obvious.

"Contact General Douglas, we need their help." The fat man gave the order almost with his eyes.

"Hey" next to the ear. There was a sneer.

The fat man opened his eyes. Just as he saw Margaret withdraw her gaze from the interstellar map. Look at the eyes of an idiot. Looking at himself and saying, "The center blooms? You think. Are your ships invisible? ”

"General Douglas. The armored forces have boarded the fleet, and all the officers and men of the fleet have left the harbor. It has also been boarded. Loading is now complete. Another hour. ”

Report of a lieutenant colonel staff officer. interrupted Douglas's musings in front of the stage. He straightened up. Just about to say something. Suddenly, I saw my chief of staff, Pang Mingjian, striding towards him.

"What's the matter?" Douglas looked solemn. He knows. His chief of staff has always been steady. Such a hurried run. Or for the first time.

"Message from the military department" Pang Ming handed the first of the two pieces of information in his hand to Douglas: "The intelligence bureau has obtained the information through the agents. This time. In addition to the two Elephant-class royal fleets of Xiyue Feiling and Feiyu. There was also the Desik Fifth Fleet. Other than that. The screening sun directly under the Yuto Mikami of Jeppen. Thunder. Storm the three supergroup fleets. An emergency assembly order has been issued. Everyone immediately canceled their vacations. Report back to the fleet within twenty-four hours. Get ready to make your way to the Bermuda galaxy. ”

"What about the Western Coalition in the Bermuda system?" Douglas's face sank like water. Quickly looked at the information in his hand. The Fifth Fleet of the Desik Empire is out. Let his head. All of a sudden, it was a lot bigger.

"An order for combat readiness of the first level has been issued. It's time to assemble. Pang Mingjian said: "Obviously. Yuto Mikami wanted to draw Bermuda's army first. Then fill it with the forces of Jeppen in the country. ”

Douglas smiled bitterly: "It really looks like us." ”

Pang Mingjian continued: "The command has sent a telegram to General Fisichella. Let the South-Eastern Expeditionary Force fleet. East out of the Newton system. Be sure to contain the forces of the West Covenant in Bermuda and the central field of Leray. Buy us time. ”

Douglas groaned. Pacing back and forth.

Pang Mingjian looked at the other document in his hand. Hesitated. Finally, he reached out and handed it to Douglas: "General." This is the newsletter I just received. Douglas took the file suspiciously. He added: "It was sent through the No. 1 red password contact device with a three-S-level password!" ”

"Oh?" Douglas took the e-folder. Walk quickly to the podium. Place the folder out of the information slot. A moment later. A row of typewriting. Appear in front of your eyes. He couldn't help but widen his eyes, Tian Xingjian! Why is he here?!

"General Douglas. Gacharin has been separated for many years. Don't come unharmed, right? Jun Qi attacked the Blue Stone Star. The universe has been sounded. Now. Southeast Longbow. Honesty is the general of the country. The focus of the eyes of the people of Limin. The battle"

Opening words. Douglas couldn't help but frown. He really couldn't imagine the fat man's elegant appearance. But. Soon he looked. The text below makes a 180-degree turn.

“。 It was written by a staff officer just now. I'm too lazy to change it. Just say hello to you. You sneak up on the Blue Stone. It was beautifully played. But. About the counteroffensive. It's coming soon. Brother, I'm in the Longbow system. The royal fleet of the Binarte Empire. I saw it too. This battle. I'm afraid it's a bit hanging. Even if you can win. It is also a self-loss of 800 to kill the enemy. Wait for Jay's mongrels to swarm again. Hold the Longbow Galaxy. The strategic goal of buying time for Chuckner. I'm afraid it won't be possible. So. I want to think about it. Or decided to do a favor."

Douglas quietly read the document. The bottom of my heart is already turbulent.

He didn't expect that. An army of bandits led by a fat man. There turned out to be a fleet. Yes, there is. I didn't even think of it. This fat man. As soon as he came, he put forward such an unbelievable battle plan.

He opened the interstellar map. Call up the coordinates of the ambush in the battle plan. Look at that tiny asteroid belt. Stunned.

The voice of the chief of staff of the "general" Pang Ming. Ringing in my ears. Douglas looked back. Seeing this has always been steady. A meticulous chief of staff. Iron blushed. Asked in an incredulous tone.

"This Leray is a madman?"
