"What?" Yuan Yi asked tentatively.
"To deal with the flying field." Nagato said with certainty.
"Are you sure you're not kidding?"
"I hope I'm kidding you." Nagato said scrutinically.
"I want a report on the battlefield assessment, a series of materials such as our combat strength, strongholds, nautical charts, etc., and use the city-wide radio broadcast to summon Iowa, tell her that I am here, let her come over immediately, and prepare the corresponding ship equipment for her, you know what she needs." Yuan Yi finished speaking in one breath.
"Shut up!" At this time, Resis stepped in front of him and poked his chest with his finger: "You are just a guest general who was recruited during the war, don't put on a great appearance and give orders, Lieutenant Yuan Yi!" Remember your identity, I am the commander-in-chief and the person in charge here. ”
Rexis deliberately accentuated the rank of lieutenant.
Yuan Yi rolled his eyes and made a gesture that you would invite.
Only then did Resis turn around and say to Nagato, "Go and send a letter to Iowa, bring the relevant materials, and prepare a pair of ship suits." ”
It was almost the same as what Yuan Yi had just said.
"Understood." Nagato didn't care who said this, only the reasonableness of this order: "I'm afraid that other systems won't be used if the ship is equipped, and I still have a set of spare." ”
"Let's do it." After speaking, Resis turned around unhappily and pointed his finger at Yuan Yi's chest: "Listen, this suit is just lent to you, don't have strange ideas." ”
"Yes, Colonel Reis."
"I've been promoted to colonel."
"Yes, Colonel Reis." Yuan Yi turned his head and said to Xue Feng in a voice that could be clearly heard by others: "Xue Feng, let me tell you, the guy who can slap the sycophants in the army rises the fastest, but a person like me who has an upright personality and a fast heart may offend the leader at some point, and he is a little lieutenant after so many years, and he is called to his life, miserable!" ”
"You!"
"Hey, Colonel Reis, of course I don't mean you, you are so glorious and upright, how can you be the kind of flattery, sloppy and slapping horses, sitting in a bustling harbor all day long, throwing work to the secretary, pointing fingers at others and announcing personal vendettas, certainly not." Yuan Yi reached out and touched the medal worn on the other party's admiral's uniform, someone would really wear this thing on their own territory, Yuan Yi usually didn't even bother to wear a military uniform when he was guarding the mansion in the nameless town.
Syllable.
There is no doubt that Yuan Yi's outstretched claws were slapped open by the other party.
"If you're here to laugh at me, you don't have to stay here." Resis spoke with a black stinking face.
Yuan Yi's words just now hit the weakness of Laces, it is impossible to say that a lieutenant who sits in the port of Murizak has no background, let alone a colonel, even if he is a brigadier general at the general level, a major general may not be qualified enough, at least if he is a lieutenant general or above. And Resis got this position, obviously someone pushed him behind his back.
However, it is clear that he is not very satisfied with this, and he has never been complacent because of this, but desperately wants to prove himself in all aspects.
As far as Yuan Yi's understanding of Resis is concerned, this guy has never been a guy who is willing to be mediocre, and his self-esteem is extremely high, which is why there were so many people who chased Nandakota back then, but he still maintains that simple hostility towards him to this day. He doesn't want people to say that he is relying on opening the back door and constantly working hard and he has indeed relied on the family power relationship to achieve today's achievements, there is actually no contradiction between the two, this is a smart person, but a guy like Yuan Yi who doesn't care about gains and losses is a stupid.
"Your Excellency Yuan Yi." Nagato over there also reminded him.
Realizing that he had gone too far, Yuan Yi scratched his head: "I'm sorry." ”
Seeing that Yuan Yi was soft, Laces didn't get cheap and behaved, he knew that now was not the time for the two to play tricks on each other, and Yuan Yi had the same perception of him, although he instinctively felt disgusted with this man, he could also see the shining points in the other party, and was sure that now Harbor Defense needed the help of Yuan Yi and Iowa.
Maybe Yuan Yi himself can't feel it, but for Resis, agreeing with Nagato's suggestion to ask Yuan Yi for help is already his greatest reason and concession as a naval colonel and the head of the port of Murizak, after all, almost no man is willing to compromise with his rival in love (unilaterally).
"Let's go." Resis said no more and turned around.
"Then I'll take care of the rest." Nagato also parted ways here.
After that, Yuan Yi and Xuefeng's follower Resis came to the operational headquarters of the Port Murizak Theater.
Judging from the information started, this time the flying field Ji selected the trading port south of the port of Murizak to launch an attack, and more than 1,000 cargo ships, merchant ships and frigates anchored in the port were all sunk, and the number of casualties was countless, not to mention the bombing of the city before.
Next, the news of the defeat of the fleet sent out by Resis before continued to reach the command like snowflakes, and Resis's face turned blue when he held the battle report in his hand, and he looked at the casualty figures on the report as if he were staring at a mortal enemy, and his trimmed nails sank deep into the page, and the force was so great that his bones turned white.
Seeing him like this, Yuan Yi knew that there was no good news, and it was only after Resis handed the report to him that Yuan Yi read it, and then he realized how bad the current situation was.
After a round of bombing of the airfield, one-third of the city's daily functions were paralyzed, and the casualties were estimated to be as high as 50,000 (the population of this era was generally small, only one-twentieth of the population of the old city, and 50,000 was equivalent to nearly half of the population of the port of Murizak).
The previous failure to send the main fleet to meet it made Resis's side completely passive, but fortunately, the flight field Ji temporarily retreated after this (the other side also has losses, and the ammunition in the deep sea is not unlimited), according to the reconnaissance report, she chose the gray rock beach 15 nautical miles away from the port of Murizak as a stronghold, and now it is like the center of the storm, covered by dark clouds, and it is very difficult to even get close.
This information undoubtedly indicates that Yuan Yi's worst fears have happened, Gray Rock Beach is a natural haven surrounded by sea and rocky reefs, and the Shuangyan Island outside Yuan Yi's nameless town has a similar topography, and it is located at the center of the triangle of Murizak Port, Port Dovirat and Liuli Port, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a chokepoint. It was never a port, it was small, and there was no environment for humans to live, so it was always used as a sentry post, a berthing in case of crisis.
But this inconspicuous place is not a joke to be taken by the other party, in terms of geographical location and importance, it is obvious that the port of Dovirat and the port of Liuli are more important, but once this place is taken away by the other party, and the opponent is a flight field with an ultra-wide area detection range, this means that the connection between the port of Murizak and the port of Dovirat and the port of Liuli will be completely cut off.
"What do you think?" It was rare for Resis to honestly ask Yuan Yi's opinion, but looking at his appearance, he actually had a conclusion in his heart.
It's just that the conclusion he had in mind was too heavy, and he would rather Yuan Yi come up with a new theory here to refute himself than bear that terrible result.
But Yuan Yi is not a god in the end.
"It seems that the target of the deep sea was not the port of Murizak in the first place, or at least in terms of priority." He stretched out his hand and pointed to the location of the two ports of Dorvirat and Liuli Port on the chart, "Obviously, they still have reinforcements, if you want to save Duovirat Port and Liuli Harbor, you must take the Flying Field Ji as soon as possible, otherwise if they uproot these two important strongholds, not only Murizak Harbor, but at least all of them will be lost." ”
Yuan Yi drew a large circle on the map, which was nearly a quarter of the territory of mankind.
Resis opened his mouth, he wanted to refute Yuan Yi as alarmist, but his pale face and the uneasiness in his heart told him that Yuan Yi's inference was probably the result of the next development of the situation.
"So what should we do now, it's not that fast to ask for reinforcements."
"How long?"
"The port of Rousanne, the port of Dambis, the port of Krojavich, the port of Moro, the port of Trucente, these round-trip voyages are about two days, no, if you rush day and night, you can control it in one day, but Mostna, Nanping port, Muyang port, all of them, all take more than three days......"
Yuan Yi knew what Lesis was worried about, just like not every admiral was good at fighting, and not every harbor was heavily guarded, because of the existence of the three military ports of Dorvirat, Liuli Port and Murizak Port, so the defense of some human-inhabited harbors west of the harbor was quite sparse, which is also the reason why once Dovirat Port and Liuli Port fell, there would be a large amount of territory lost next.
Human beings have always thought that their defenses are impregnable, but there is no city in the world that will never fall, and this complacency has indirectly led to the situation where there are no soldiers to borrow. Let's change the way to understand this sentence is that we can go and ask for some miscellaneous fish to come and die with us now, but if we really want to move the main force, it is estimated that Dolphin Port and Liuli Port will long have ceased to exist.
Under the light, Yuan Yi looked at the chart intently and frowned.
"It's not despair," there was a thunderstorm outside the house, and the dim light brought by the generator inside the room only illuminated Yuan Yi's resolute side face, and those ink-like eyes were shining: "But Colonel Resis, forgive me for trespassing, can all the command here be handed over to me, and I will be fully responsible?" ”
This is not something that can be described by a single sentence of transgression.
This is already a direct request for Resis to delegate power, not to mention that this is a resentful and arrogant Resis who has a grudge against Yuan Yi, even if it is an ordinary general, he will feel that this is a deep humiliation to himself.
Resis looked at Yuan Yi's dark eyes, and the hands that were placed on his legs clenched and loosened, so three times, he seemed to have made up his mind.
"Just do as you say," Resis turned his back and tugged at the brim of his hat, "But Lieutenant Yuan Yi, if you can't accomplish the task as you say, there are two people here who need to take matters into their own hands because of this." ”
"Yes." Yuan Yi raised his hand and gave a military salute.
The other party didn't say anything more, and walked out of the room quickly after returning the military salute, not only to avoid it, but probably to order something.
Seeing Laces's figure disappear behind the curtain, the snow wind, which had been holding back silently on the side, pulled Yuan Yi's sleeve with some fear, and asked, "Ernie sauce, if we lose the battle this time, will the two of us be pulled out and shot by them?" ”
"That's not it," Yuan Yi smiled, reaching out and touching Xue Feng's head: "It's really that far, the dead person is just me and some stubborn bastard." ”
