Chapter 83 (I)

Somewhere in the Vana Federation, a fleet of dozens of small transport warships from the capital circle is slowly moving towards the Zola system, their task is to transport a batch of fuel to the counterinsurgency forces on the front line, and the entire Federation of small fleets like them does not know how many are sent.

In the flagship of the transport fleet, a major yawned and stretched to the radar officer next to him: "Alas, really, if we had set off with the counterinsurgency army a day earlier, we would have been promoted to one level now, and I would have become a lieutenant colonel." ”

The radar officer said enviously: "Yes, sir, I heard that they recovered nearly a thousand planets without even firing a single shot, and without even seeing the shadow of the enemy, it was really good luck that all the officers participating in the battle were promoted by one level so simply." ”

The major waved his hand and said, "Don't envy them, as long as we send the supplies to the front line and return to the capital, we can also be promoted to the next level." ”

The radar officer first nodded excitedly, and then said with some confusion: "Sir, why do I think the current officer promotion seems to be too easy?" You see, if you just deliver supplies once, you can be promoted, but if you deliver it a few more times, won't we all become generals? ”

The major pouted and said, "Hey, how can it be so easy as you think, it is so easy to be promoted to one level in the war to improve our morale. I have read military history, and it is customary for all soldiers who participate in wars to be promoted to the next level regardless of whether they have made meritorious service or not. Also, don't look at the fact that you can easily be promoted to one level after completing this mission, if you want to be promoted to another level, we must at least smoothly transport more than a hundred times! ”

"More than a hundred? Isn't that killing us? Sir, what is the promotion system of the Federation? Tell me about it. The radarman said with interest.

The major nodded and said: "The federal regular promotion system is like this, every promotion level must be counted from the private, if a major like me wants to be promoted to lieutenant colonel, then he must obtain military merits that can make the private promoted to major, and after the promotion, the credit will have to be accumulated again." ”

"Wow! Is it so difficult to advance? But I see a lot of very young major generals, is it possible for them to make so many achievements? The radarman asked, puzzled.

The major showed a look of disgust and said: "What I just said is the formal promotion system, those guys are taking the wrong path, because they have a good backer, and whenever they encounter something with collective merit, these backers will put their names in it, so they can soon become generals!" ”

"Collective credit?" The radarman looked puzzled.

"Hey, I don't understand this, that is, all the people involved can get the credit, like the occupation of the planet, everyone who participates in the occupation has the same credit. You know, the merit of capturing 50 planets is enough to get all the people in a fleet to be promoted to the next level. And this time the capture of thousands of planets is such a great feat, I dare to guarantee that among those who have backers, there will definitely be a few major generals! The major pouted.

Just as the radarman was about to say something, the ship's siren suddenly went off, causing him to hurriedly turn around to check the radar. The major also leaned forward nervously and asked, "What's the matter?" Is there a meteorite nearby? ”

The radarman shook his head with a pale face, swallowed his saliva and stammered a little, "No...... Not a meteorite, we ...... We're surrounded! ”

"Besieged? How did the rebels end up here? The major looked up at the screen in a panic, and the screen already showed that dozens of warships of unknown type had surrounded the convoy.

The major, who had already activated the communicator and was ready to report the enemy invasion to the rear, suddenly stopped the action. He stared blankly at the enemy ship with an increasingly large image on the screen, and it was not the huge enemy ship that made him stop moving, but the skeleton pattern painted on the hull of the enemy ship!

The radarman who was listening suddenly raised his head and said bitterly to the major: "They ordered us to surrender or open fire." ”

"Surrender? The Federation surrendered to the pirates? The major, who was stunned for a while, seemed to remember something, and roared with a hideous face: "No! I can't be the first one! As he spoke, he immediately shouted into the walkie-talkie: "Report to the control tower, we have encountered pirates, the location is ......" Before the major could finish speaking, he was annihilated by the rushing beam.

"Dispatch, it's our turn!"

"Brothers, rush!"

"Treasures and beauties are waiting for us, everyone give them to me!"

"Hahaha! Brothers, follow me to the party! ”

"Brethren, the beauties of wealth are beckoning to us! Come on! ”

"Brothers, this is the moment of glory and riches! Attack! ”

As these words resounded in the universe with different words but the same meaning, countless pirate fleets hidden in the darkness spread all over the Wanluo Federation like bacteria.

"What? Pirate attack on transport warships? Cammouchi asked a little incredulously, in his opinion, pirates are rats who drive broken spaceships and sneak around to rob merchant ships, how can they suddenly become so bold and dare to rob transport warships?

"Yes sir, it has been reported that 37 transport fleets of our army have been attacked by pirates, 523 transport ships have been sunk, and 643 transport ships have been captured by pirates." The intelligence officer reported.

"Oh, it's just over a thousand transports." Cammouch breathed a sigh of relief, he thought that tens of thousands of transports had been sacked by pirates, and a thousand low-level transports were a drop in the bucket for a fleet of millions.

Kanmuchi, who took out a cigar and lit it and took a sip of it, couldn't help but think: "Alas, these days have really made my blood pressure rise, the planets occupied in the Sven system the day before yesterday suddenly surrendered to the enemy, and more than 100,000 rebels appeared nearby to block the retreat of the federal army." Fortunately, those combined fleets reacted quickly, and as soon as they received the information, they immediately sent back more than 400,000 troops from the two combined fleets to break through. However, what is more humiliating is the fact that the planets that announced the recovery have surrendered to the enemy, but fortunately, the front army that attacked the Deira system is like entering a no-man's land and has recovered most of the galaxy, otherwise how to explain to the people. But the rebels did this, and they also made themselves conclude that the main force of the rebels was in the Sven system, and now I put all the second-line troops into it, and I believe that the rebels will be eliminated soon, right? Well, for these, pirates are just a minor issue. After he becomes a marshal, he can order those young Zhuang factions to destroy the pirates, not only can he promote them, but also increase his own merits. ”

The intelligence officer interrupted Cammouchi's reverie with a little embarrassment and said: "Sir, although our losses are very small, because of these pirates, the speed of transporting supply fleets is relatively slow, and there is also an atmosphere of panic among the people on the nearby planets infested by pirates, because we have almost no garrisons in these places." ”

"And what about the nearby local fleet? Tell them to fight pirates. Cammouchi exhaled a puff of smoke and said nonchalantly.

Hearing this, the intelligence officer looked at Cammouchi dumbfounded, didn't he know that he had reorganized all the local fleets of the Federation into a combined fleet? When the intelligence officer wanted to say something, another intelligence officer ran in in a panic and shouted, "Sir! The latest information, the transport fleet ransacked by pirates has exceeded 100,000! ”

The intelligence officer's words silenced the entire hall, and all the officers froze in place with their mouths open, speechless. Cammouch threw the cigar away, jumped to his feet, grabbed the intelligence officer by the collar with a hideous face, and yelled viciously: "What did you say? The transport fleet of more than 100,000 is gone?! Those commanders eat, why don't they resist?! He also didn't want to think about it, the transport fleet was unarmed, how could it resist?

The intelligence officer blushed and said with difficulty: "Sir...... And ......"

Cammochison curiously opened his hand and asked, "What else?" ”

The intelligence officer glanced at Cammouchi a little frightened before saying, "Also, the pirates have begun to attack the administrative stars in various places, and there are 312 administrative stars that they will be forced to surrender to the pirates if they don't send reinforcements again!" ”

Hearing this, Cam Muqi immediately jumped to his feet and shouted, "Where are their planetary defense cannons? Could it be that those interstellar cannons with tens of billions of dollars are so good-looking? ”

I don't know which officer muttered at this time: "Those planets only have 10 interstellar cannons at most, and it is impossible to defend all directions, and the pirates attacked the planet from the dead end at the first time, and they were forced to land after destroying all the interstellar cannons." ”

Hearing this, Cammouchi's feet went limp, and he collapsed on the ground, so frightened that the officers around him hurriedly helped him up. Cammouchi was stunned for a while, and then suddenly jumped up and roared: "What about the army? What about the army of the Federation? Why is there no army to exterminate them?! ”

At this time, the officer who didn't know whether to live or die continued to mutter: "Our army is in the two systems of Draa and Sven." His words made Cammouchi realize that he had no soldiers in his hands.

Cammouchi finally sat down in his chair weakly and said in a deep voice, "Galaxy map." As Cammochi's words fell, the officers were busy, and in a short time a huge three-dimensional map of galaxies appeared in front of Cammuchi.

An intelligence officer took out an electronic pen and clicked on the hundreds of shining planets on the galaxy map and said, "These are the planets that have been attacked by pirates." ”

Cammuchi, who had calmed down a little, nodded and said, "Mark the pirate's tracks." ”

The intelligence officer hurriedly pressed a few buttons, and small red bright spots began to appear on the galaxy map, at first Cammouchi could remain calm, but as there were more and more red bright spots, except for the Southern War Zone, almost all over the entire Federation system, Cammouchi finally couldn't help but jump up and shout with a shocked face: "How can there be so many?!" ”

The intelligence officer swallowed his saliva and said bitterly: "According to the calculations shown by the radar, the total strength of the pirates has reached 300,000, and some of them are our captured transport ships. The news caused a pause in the crowded hall, followed by a buzz of discussion.

"300,000 ......." Hearing this, Cammochi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, but he suddenly remembered something and asked the intelligence officer: "How does the combat effectiveness of the pirates compare with our army?" ”

The intelligence officer, who had been with a bitter face, finally smiled at this moment and said: "There is no comparison with our army at all, the pirate's warships are all converted from merchant ships, don't look at his 300,000, but they are too scattered, and any team can eliminate them one by one." Speaking of this, the intelligence officer said with a bitter face: "It's a pity that we don't even have a single battleship in our hands now." ”

Cammouch didn't have a bitter face like the intelligence officer, he just needed to know that these pirates were vulnerable. He nodded with a smile and said, "How many troops do General Zhang Junlong and General Mujit still have?" ”

The intelligence officer hurriedly replied: "General Zhang Junlong sent 50,000 troops to help defend in the Bone Cloud Dragon Galaxy, and now he still has 100,000 troops. And General Mujet sent 10,000 troops to cooperate with our army's campaign in the Deira system, and he still has 40,000 troops in his hands. ”

Kan Muqi thought for a moment and said, "Help me contact General Zhang Junlong." ”

"Yes!" The intelligence officer immediately made contact.

"Who? Oh, it's Your Excellency General Cammuchi, what's the matter? Zhang Junlong appeared in front of Kan Muqi in military uniform, and just after saying hello, he muttered a few words to the adjutant beside him, and the adjutant left in a hurry after saluting.

Seeing Zhang Junlong's appearance, Kan Muqi couldn't help but ask strangely: "Did something happen to you anywhere?" It looks like I'm nervous. ”

Zhang Junlong patted his forehead and sighed: "Alas, I've been really busy these days. You know my side of the Rice Republic, damn it, their president was suddenly ousted, and now that civil war has broken out, some of the outcasts who fled the war and the defeated political axe army have fled to my side. And now there are a large number of pirates in my vicinity, and I am busy all day long. Speaking of this, without waiting for Cammouchi to speak, he continued: "Okay, you are commanding the counterinsurgency campaign, and I will not delay your time. Don't worry, I won't go back on my word, although I need troops very much, but the 50,000 troops stationed in the Bone Cloud Dragon Galaxy, I will still wait until the end of the counterinsurgency to transfer back. So be it. With that, he cut off the communication.

Cammouchi stared blankly at the pitch-black screen for a moment before jumping to his feet and yelling, "Fuck! Civil war in the Republic of Rice? How I haven't heard of it! Zhang Junlong has yours, and he still thinks about himself when he is worried about internal and external troubles! Good! We'll see! ”

At this time, an intelligence officer said indifferently: "Sir, there is indeed a civil war in the Republic of Rice, and I reported it to you a few days ago. ”

"Fuck, shit now!" Cammouchi slapped the officer hard, and then shouted viciously: "What about Zhang Longluo? Move him to the front! If he dares to disobey the order, he will be shot on the spot! ”

At this time, an officer said in a frightened manner: "Sir, Zhang Longlu drove to the north yesterday under the pretext of transporting supplies. ”

After being stunned for a moment, Cammouchi jumped his legs angrily and roared: "You are all dead people, how dare you let him escape from the battle?" I'm going to take him to a court-martial, I'm going to put him to death!" "Only Cammuchi's voice sounded in the whole hall.
