Chapter 375: Night's Concerns

"Salute." Under the orders of Major General Garancha, all the officers who greeted Admiral Jax gave a solemn military salute to the Admiral who came out of the engine room. Garancha was the commander of the Tris base, and in terms of non-military operations, Ye was still in his charge, so this kind of scene could only be ordered by Garancha, not Ye, a high-ranking person in the army.

"Take a break. Entering the air-conditioned departure hall, I replied that this year's Terrad was much hotter than last year's. Jax smiled back and motioned for everyone to go to the departure lounge. If you talk here, you probably won't be able to stand in half an hour.

After entering the departure hall, Jax dismissed the officers after his usual speech, and then motioned for Ye and Garancha to come to his office, both of whom were his favorite generals, one in strategy and the other in tactics.

"Admiral." Night and Garancha saluted at Jax's huge desk.

Admiral Jax waved his hand with a smile, "Don't you be more serious, they are all their own people, one is my godnephew, the other is my favorite student, what are you doing in front of me?" ”

Hearing Jax's words, Ye immediately unbuttoned the wind buckle on his neckline, and complained: "Whew, it's uncomfortable for me to die, who designed this thing is guilty." ”

Garancha also found a seat and sat down, and it was obvious that the Admiral was meeting them in a private capacity, so it was not necessary to stand there in a solemn manner.

Seeing the performance of the two, Admiral Jax was also happy, and said with a smile: "You two are really welcome, and your true form will be revealed immediately." ”

After silently pouring himself a glass of water, he also found a place to sit down and took a big sip. Then he said, "Sir." I haven't rested since I came out of Thor Fortress. It's forgivable to be a little lazy. ”

Jax swept the epaulettes of the night, raised his eyes and looked at the night I was very lucky, you should be considerate of me, and said happily: "If you fall asleep all the way out of the fortress of Thor, can you still get the rank of special major?" ”

Ye looked at his epaulettes, pretended to be proud, and said, "Sir, I should be the first special major in the Federation." ”

Jax shook his head with a smile, and deliberately sighed and poured cold water on the night: "The promotion order of the military department is the first to reach the space force. So Cologne will become a special colonel before you, and you are a step slower in your youth. ”

The night was suddenly speechless, he performed very well in the pursuit of the Eighth Fleet, but the performance of the iron-blooded commando team was also very eye-catching, especially in the last battle of the New London Star Skyrim, they included a large group of mechas, plus the four battleships that paralyzed their firepower, and the members of the entire commando team were estimated to be enough to upgrade their military merits.

"Hey." Garancha laughed heartlessly on the side, although they had only been together for a short time, the two were still quite speculative. We've become friends with each other. At the age of 56, Jialancha, who rightfully became his elder brother, but unfortunately his military rank was half a point lower than Ye, naturally did not miss any opportunity to laugh at Ye.

"Heinz, don't laugh at night. A while ago, you used ghost transports to airdrop camouflage troops near the Empire's rear supply base to disrupt the Empire's logistics, but this time you lost our Federation's best camouflage commando. Skeleton Commando, you are fully responsible. You already know that the Empire will be testing the latest weapons there, why are you still dropping your troops around there, don't you want to make the skeleton commandos suffer heavy losses? The skeleton commando uses a mass-produced machine, not a special machine like the night, and it is not as good as the commando of the iron-blooded commando team in Cologne. Admiral Jax uttered something that shocked Night.

Garancha smiled bitterly, reluctantly handed Jax a disk and said, "Teacher, I knew you would ask me about it." ”

"Huh? Footage? Jax took Garancha's disk and put it in the player, and the screen showed the scene of Major Charlotte in Garancha's office, all federal bases, and the headquarters had surveillance footage, on the one hand, to protect the commander's safety, and on the other hand, to record whether the commander's orders were wrong, which was conducive to the federal military department to find the cause of the failure of the operation.

Major Ron on the screen looked very excited, not only did he break into the headquarters without knocking on the door, but he also slammed Garancha's desk hard, making a loud thud. This action caused both Night and Jax to look up at Garancha suspiciously.

Garancha shrugged, pointed to the screen and said helplessly: "You can see it if you look at it, the sound of the recording equipment for the surveillance video is still very clear." ”

"Why did you want to cancel this operation, Major General." In the video, Ron, who was propped up on Garancha's desk with his hands, roared, "Why did you temporarily cancel the operation when you know that the Imperial 168 supply base is only defended by one mecha?" Can't my skeleton commando even beat a bear? ”

"According to our intelligence services, the Empire will be testing new equipment near the 168 supply base, and I can't let you risk it." Garancha, sitting behind her desk, opened a video in front of Ron. The video is very blurry, and the black-and-white footage tells people that this is what the high-magnification telescope sees, and an Imperial airborne ship is landing, which is loaded with the Imperial chariot that drove back to Base 3 at night.

Ron frowned disdainfully, pointed to the video and said to Garancha, "Major General, isn't it just a test weapon of the Empire?" Me and my commando team will definitely be able to destroy them, there are six of us, and it is simply impossible for an enemy plane to jump in front of our commando team for very long. Moreover, it is difficult to say whether the test weapon can be operated well on the battlefield, let alone directly contact with actual combat. The desert is not the universe, and the environment of the desert is much more demanding for mechas. ”

Garancha smiled bitterly at Ron after turning off the video: "I think the risk of this mission is still a bit high, since the Imperial Army dares to put this experimental weapon on the 168 supply base close to the front line for testing, it shows that they have a lot of confidence in this weapon, or they will replace the garrison of the original Bear commando in the 168 base with only one bear." I think it's a trap to lure us into attacking. ”

"This is the enemy's empty plan. Chief. If it's a snare. They will mobilize troops from surrounding bases to set up ambushes. However, the reconnaissance units of our Air Force did not find traces of the Imperial ambush near the 168 base. Ron pointed to the huge military map in Garancha's office, and drew a circle around the Imperial 168 base to indicate that there were no Imperial troops in those locations.

Garancha was silent, if it was not roughly the same as his concerns, then the empire would probably think too highly of their trial weapons, in the ground war, affected by gravity and climate, the gap between the ace pilot and the ordinary pilot was greatly narrowed. This is also the biggest reason why the military department did not send the Federation's first ace commando to fight in the air. If as he expected, the empire wants to set a trap and wait for the federal forces who are trying to pick up the bargain, why there is no sign of the formation of several imperial troops, you must know that the federal air force, which has almost completely mastered the sky, patronizes the sky above the imperial base every half an hour, using high-definition cameras to record the situation of the imperial troops, coupled with the sunny weather for several days, the movements of the imperial troops in Garancha's hands are the latest and most complete. Major General Garancha's heart was still full of unease, unwilling to send his best camouflaged troops to attack the planned Imperial supply base.

Ron was obviously dissatisfied with Garancha's hesitation, and stood up straight and saluted, "Major General Garancha, our commando team volunteered to attack this mission. Please say yes. With that, Ron took off the pilot's badge on the chest of his uniform. It was heavily placed on Garancha's desk.

This act of taking off one's badge is an indication of the head of the unit when a subordinate of the Union Army asks to perform an action that is not allowed from above. This means that the force will voluntarily attack the mission, and will only be able to use its own forces without the support of any friendly forces. If the mission is successful, military merit can be accumulated, but there is no recognition or promotion for these military merits. If the mission fails, the entire army will be demoted to one rank, which is a very serious punishment in the Federation where it is difficult to rise in the military rank.

In the face of Ron's persistence, Garancha had no choice but to confirm again: "Major Ron, are you sure that your subordinates are all volunteering to participate in this operation?" ”

"Yes, sir." Ron replied without hesitation, his loud voice showing his determination.

Garancha rubbed his temples, shook his head slightly, put away Ron's badge, and said, "Okay, since you are more persistent, I will agree with your action, alas, if the opponent is too strong, call for support directly, we will try to give you the maximum support in the shortest possible time, this is the only thing I can do for you, Ron." ”

Garancha's video made Admiral Jax and Night smile wryly, it seems that the total destruction of the skeleton commando team is completely caused by Ron's willfulness, but Jax doesn't understand why Ron insists on attacking the 168 supply base.

Jax frowned and thought for a long time, and didn't understand Ron's thoughts, so he could only ask one of the parties involved in the incident, and said, "Heinz, can you tell me why Ron has to do it better, and why the members of the skeleton commando team support him to do it better?" ”

"It's not the night they're to blame." Jia Lancha smiled bitterly and pointed to the night road that was sitting on the side with some sadness.

Jax made Garancha's words even more confusing, and looked up at the two of them suspiciously.

Ye smiled bitterly, preempted Garancha, and said to Jax: "Sir, you know that our flagship flying squadron of the elite thirteenth fleet is me, Cologne and Ron survived the Battle of Odessa. ”

"Yes." Jax nodded his head in the know.

"Now Cologne and I are both commandos of the All-Ace Commando Team of the Federation, and only Ron is still the captain of the general commando team. With Ron's character, he is not willing to be stronger than us, but although the skeleton commando team he led has a lot of achievements, it is still a long way from the goal of the all-ace commando, so he will not let go of any fighter. Night explains that when he was on Rogilas, Ron often challenged Night and Cologne, trying to prove that he was not weaker than Franklin's two favorite trump cards, but unfortunately both ended in failure.

"And Ron is a very adventurous guy, and that kind of spirit is what we need at times, but there are times when we don't like it." Garancha also added on the side.

Night cut the video on the disk to the screen showing the Imperial Airborne Ship, and said lightly: "Ron's operation has been successful, he has actually injured the Imperial Tank pilot, but the idea of killing the personnel on the Imperial Airborne Ship made him not seriously check the damage to the tank, resulting in the Imperial Pilot having a chance to die with him." ”

"Whew." Jax gently rubbed his temples, "It seems that the total destruction of the Skeleton Commando was completely caused by Major Ron's over-obsession, alas, it's a pity that our Federation has lost another group of powerful pilots." ”

The two of them who heard Jax's emotion also lowered their heads, and suddenly the atmosphere in the entire office seemed a little dull.

Jax clapped his hands, taking the lead in breaking the dullness in the office, and said solemnly, "The total destruction of the skeleton commandos has become a fact, and there is no need for us to investigate who is responsible for the failure of this operation." All we have to do now is how to fight back against the Imperial forces and avenge the loss of our soldiers, you are also a very senior officer in the New London Star Army, and I need your opinion on the war situation in the Tyrald area. ”

When he heard that Jax wanted to listen to his strategic advice, he immediately shook his head like a rattle, "Sir, it's okay for you to let me command a small-scale mecha battle or an air battle, but I can't put forward a strategic opinion on the overall situation." ”

Jax raised his eyes and looked at the corner of Ye's mouth slightly hooked, and pulled up a document from his computer, "Night. Huaxia, the first name in the Federal Strategic Use Trials, Night Boy, I know your results in the army selection. ”

Night raised his eyes and looked at the computer in Jax's hand, and his intestines were about to turn blue. At the beginning, it was fun to participate in the strategy use competition, and the night was purely when playing real-time strategy games, but inexplicably won a grand prize. At that time, Ye was happy for a while, and some people from the staff came to spend the night, but Ye refused. But now Ye would rather not have a rank at that time, you must know that considering the overall situation is the most troublesome, the game and simulation are fine, there is no loss if you fail, but once you fail in reality, there will be thousands of soldiers who died because of this mistake, and this responsibility Ye is unwilling and cannot bear.

"I know what you're worried about?" Jax kept staring at the night and noticed the hesitation on the night's face, "All I need is your opinion to refine my plan, not to ask you to take the responsibility for the lives of the soldiers, so be bold enough to speak your mind." Maybe what you saw was something I couldn't have predicted, and it could save the lives of many of our Union soldiers. (To be continued......)
