166. Countdown to attack
"It's using these ships as carrier-based aircraft."
Silently looking at the scene in the universe in the light screen in front of him, Count Gaha thought so in his heart.
The distance between each ship is enormous for safety reasons, but even so, the hundreds of thousands of huge interstellar ships gathered in a single space is an endless image.
The uncontrolled ships allowed Lord Gaha to see very clearly, and the dozens of ships in his light seconds alone made him feel a trace of majesty and excitement in his heart, but when he thought of the enemy they were about to face, the little passion in his heart disappeared without a trace.
Only the emotion of "despair" remains.
"Why don't you have some fun before you die?" The young Earl Gaha had this idea at the same time as his eyes involuntarily glanced at the beautiful captain to his left.
However, due to the dignity of the nobles, he quickly withdrew his "full" and "aggressive" gaze, and quietly looked at the light screen in front of him with a large amount of information in the fleet.
To be honest, the information of this group of fleets has been swiped in front of you, and it is indeed a bit like the game of commanding fleets often played by young imperial nobles. Fleet commander, almost all aristocratic teenagers had this dream when they were young.
Expand the territory for His Majesty the Emperor, and fight for the glory of the empire and the family.
"If only it weren't human, alas." Count Gaha, who sighed in front of his face with an opaque light screen, didn't know how many times he looked like this.
Oh, as for why you want to put a light screen in front of you, it's purely because of the decency of the imperial nobility and the basic qualities of being a commander. No matter when. A competent commander should be calm and confident.
"But it's humans." Thinking of this, Count Gaha even had the urge not to be so decent, after all, the stick boys under his command should have known who the opponent was this time was. So as an interstellar empire that has popularized basic national education, I'm afraid that any child will know what kind of monster humans are.
Trampling. A series of footsteps sounded from the rear, and as soon as I heard it, a large group of men and horses came to the war room.
"The Governor of the Star District, the Young Eunuch of the Internal Affairs Office is here!" Accompanied by the report of the guards, a group of mid- and lower-ranking officers in the Situation Room stood up and saluted the captain's area in the rear.
Behind the two leading men, there are at least dozens of ethnically diverse beings.
The Princess Anna's spacious and gorgeous palace-like war room easily accommodated these "guests" of different races and sizes, and it was even because of their arrival that this second floor did not seem so empty and silent.
Unlike the respectful behavior of the middle and low-ranking officers on the first and second floors, Count Gaha, who was shrunk in his chair, had no idea of getting up at all, glanced at the miscellaneous things that came from behind, and then nodded casually with his cane, which was considered a salute
As an old high-ranking nobleman in the empire. Although the miscellaneous people of the Internal Affairs Office are purely dedicated to His Majesty the Emperor, he knows that the current Internal Affairs Office is no longer the former Internal Affairs Office that is loyal to the imperial family, and in the past hundred years, their hands have gradually stretched out a little longer. According to Count Gaha's estimation, His Majesty, the great and benevolent Emperor, who was still young, could no longer tolerate the continued existence of these goods.
"Huh?" Count Gaha suddenly saw something in the information on the screen, the brows on his face furrowed, and the compound pupils that were different from human beings shrank slightly, and he reached out to intercept the information.
On the other side. After saluting Captain Anjou, who was born as a nobleman of the court, the governor of the star district and Shi Shiran, the young eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, sat on the seat, facing the Count Gaha, who was "paralyzed" on the seat and did not care about them, although they seemed to be a little angry. But there seems to be an element of contempt, probably because they thought that the young earl had been too frightened to get up.
As for the commanders of those alien fleets behind, the two imperial officials didn't bother to pay attention to them. With the exception of a few observers of the same race who were given seats, everyone else had to stand honestly. It's just that the high-grade biomass carpet covered on the ground makes it not too hard to stand.
Not to mention the fact that the body structure of some of these races is not itself suitable for the way humanoids "sit" to rest.
Let's say a cube deflats a little bit and becomes a smaller cube.
"This. What the hell! ”
Count Gaha, who was on the side, had already straightened up and carefully scanned the information in front of him.
This information is not very large, just one page. But there are several images that stand out in particular.
"What the hell is this human design? And isn't this livery also human?"
Dozens of dark gray painted boats with a strong human design style about a kilometer long and out of place look out of place compared to the surrounding Black or Dark Gold and other colors of Confederate warships.
The entire data is nothing more than a report of the ships joining the attack sequence and the identification signals of these ships.
If it were just like this, Count Gaha wouldn't have much doubt about it, just thinking of it as a clumsy imitation of human design by some minor civilization, but the provenance of these ships is marked in this not small encryption level document as coming from the Confederate Council.
The Confederation is a loose interstellar alliance, and the Confederate Council, the supreme body, is seen by many creatures as a mascot and a powerful civilizational mouthpiece, or a place to deal with small matters. But as a high-ranking nobleman of the empire, Gaha still knows that although the Confederate Congress is indeed a tool in the hands of powerful civilizations, as a platform, the plan that the Confederate Congress is implementing is either some inconsequential small matter or a big thing!
For example, the reason why humanity completely destroyed a galaxy billions of light-years away from the Milky Way a hundred years ago was that that the galaxy was the base camp of the Confederacy's research program on human transition technology, and there was a broken human starfleet warship there. Although only half of the keel remained, and the keel was destroyed by the ships of the Cyborg Republic, it was still a valuable research material for the Confederacy.
"Captain, the human fleet has taken the initiative to reveal its position, and the first attack wave is still three minutes away from the human fleet Lanzhou aircraft carrier battle group!"
The eager voice of a young combat staff officer in the situation room interrupted Count Gaha's thoughts, and he looked up at the light screen in front of him, the first attack wave composed of the fleet of small civilizations was less than a thousand light years away from the human fleet, and was evading the deceleration, and it was expected that he would be in the attack position in a few minutes. Fifty-six percent of the second attack wave with the silicon-based Zerg as the core has entered hyperspace. (To be continued.) )
