Chapter 520: Mental Preparation
"There were a hundred and fifty legions."
"There are also supporting heavy weapons and equipment."
"If you count these more than a dozen colonial systems, as long as we have enough weapons and equipment, we can mobilize and form more legions."
……
"Don't get excited, I'll talk about it after reading it."
Under Yang Yi's reminder, Yuyang and Shen Chengwen held back their excitement and continued to watch.
Before they finished reading, the two were stunned again.
"Well, now believe what I said?"
"You kid......"
"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Yuyang glanced at Yang Yi speechlessly, and said, "If we said it earlier, we don't have to worry about it." ”
Yang Yi shook his head with a wry smile and said: "The third war zone has sent fifty legions, and more than ten colonial galaxies have sent one hundred and fifty legions, if it is not expected, the reinforcements sent by the second and first war zones will not be less than those from the third war zone, at least not anywhere less, and the strength of the other six war zones is not very strong, and the reinforcements sent will not be too many, according to half of the third war zone estimates." In this way, the total strength of the reinforcements is about 450 legions, with a minimum of 400 and a maximum of 500. A more extensive mobilization in the colonial systems that have gained autonomy may be able to raise a hundred legions before the battle begins. ”
"More than a hundred, but don't get your hopes up."
Yang Yi was slightly stunned and looked towards Yuyang.
"I've been to these colonial galaxies, although they are not very developed, but the people are fierce, and the inhabitants of these colonial galaxies are poisoned by war, and they must hate the Silicon Charm army. Now that there is a chance for revenge, naturally I will not be resigned to being left behind. As long as the self-government actively cooperates. It is not a problem to form three hundred, or even five hundred, legions in a short period of time. It's just that among the inhabitants of these colonial systems, those who have the ability to fight have long joined the resistance, and most of the rest are civilians, and even if they are organized, they don't have much combat effectiveness. To put it simply. In order for these newly formed civilian regiments to be combat-capable, adequate training is definitely required. Yuyang paused slightly, and then said, "In addition, it is also a problem to arm so many legions, at least with the ability of the Yu family, it is impossible to produce enough weapons and equipment in a short period of time. In my opinion, even if there are these legions, they can only serve as strategic reserves. ”
Yang Yi nodded thoughtfully. At the same time, he looked at Shen Chengwen.
"Even so, it's better than nothing." Shen Chengwen smiled reluctantly and said, "It is conceivable that the battle that is about to start must be extremely tragic. Even if reinforcements arrive in time, and obey our dispatch and command like an arm's finger, the hope of holding on to Mars is extremely slim. At that point, all we need is reserves. Even if it's just a rabble, after a few battles, you will become an elite. ”
Yang Yi nodded again. He looked at Yuyang.
"In that case, we have to make arrangements in advance."
"The key is weaponry." Yang Yi let out a long breath and said, "Although Yu Linglong didn't mention it explicitly, these more than ten colonial galaxies that have gained autonomy must have close contacts with the Yu family, and even have the support of the Yu family. And you must rely on the support of the Yu family. As things stand, as long as the self-government of these colonizing systems recognizes the importance of Beacon Mars and knows that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, they will support us unconditionally. It's just that the only way for these self-governments to support us is to provide more troops. It is limited by various factors. These colonial systems are clearly not able to provide enough weaponry for the legions that have been formed. ”
"It's just not a problem." Shen Cheng heard and followed.
Yang Yi nodded slightly and said, "With the Yu family here, this is obviously not a problem." When making arrangements, Yu Linglong must have thought about it. The question now is, with the ability of the Yu family, especially the production capacity, can it produce weapons and equipment to arm these legions in a timely manner? ”
As soon as Yang Yi said this, Shen Chengwen immediately looked towards Yuyang.
"It's true, if there is enough time, it is not a problem to arm a few hundred legions. Only now, what we lack is time. Yuyang sighed and said, "If it's only one month, even if the Yu family's arms factory is producing at full speed, it will not be possible to arm hundreds of legions." ”
"How many can you arm?" Shen Chengwen asked directly.
Yuyang thought for a while before he said, "Based on what I learned last time I went back, within a month, I can only arm a maximum of fifty legions. It's just that the Weavers have already provided technical assistance, and productivity should be improved, but it won't be that high, after all, it's only that big. In my judgment, it would be nice to be able to arm a hundred legions with weapons and equipment produced in a month. ”
"Even then, transportation is a problem."
Yuyang nodded and said, "It's best to make arrangements in advance and transport the weapons and equipment produced in batches, rather than waiting until the legion is formed to think about it." ”
Yang Yi didn't say much, nodded and agreed, and asked Yuyang to make arrangements.
"Now it's time for us to think about how we can use these reinforcements." Yang Yi said as he called up the three-dimensional topographic map of Beacon Mars. "Even if there are only four hundred and fifty legions of reinforcements, it is impossible to deploy them in one barracks. Luckily, we've prepared and built barracks on all continents of Mars. The question now is how these corps should be arranged and deployed. ”
"It's all about how strong the enemy we are facing."
"What, you think that's a problem?"
Shen Chengwen frowned and did not answer.
Yang Yi smiled reluctantly and said, "Actually, this is the last thing we should suspect. Don't forget, the Silicon Alliance is waging this war against the Human Federation, not the entire Galactic Alliance. While this is only our speculation, it will be proven as soon as the Silicon Charm army begins to retreat. Now, look at it from a different perspective. If we defend Mars, even if the Silicon Charm army does not come here and does not fight us, what will be the result? It is clear that we will be the heroes of the Federation of Humans. In addition, more than a dozen colonial systems have already gained autonomy, and there are sure to be more in the future. Wars don't end with the retreat of the Silicon Army, the autonomy of colonial systems won't be outlawed, and we can rely on many colonized systems to thrive. In time, we will be able to replace the current nine war zones and become the masters of the Human Federation. It may not be so smooth, but it is conceivable that as long as we achieve the final victory, the Federation of Mankind will be able to unite and become a force that no one can underestimate. With the lessons of this war, we certainly will not have any illusions that peace will last forever. With the support and assistance of the Weavers, it won't be long before we gain the strength to enter the Northern Alpha System. ”
"You mean ......"
"Obviously, it's not just the nine war zones that are eyeing us now, but also the Silicon Charm Alliance."
Shen Chengwen's brows jumped a few times, and Yuyang's expression became gloomy.
"There is no doubt that there must be a large enemy coming towards us, whose purpose is not only to control the route from here, but to destroy us completely. Perhaps, in the eyes of those top war kings in Kutum, destroying us is destroying the hope of the revival of the Human Federation. If this is a war against the Human Federation, then the upcoming battle will definitely be a hundred times more tragic than the Beacon Star offensive and defensive battle a thousand years ago. Yang Yi paused for a moment before saying, "Actually, for us, this war has just begun, and the previous ones were just warm-up exercises. Even if none of us can compare with the generalissimo Xiao Wentian back then, we have no other choice, let alone a way out. More importantly, if we do not even have such a basic understanding and are not mentally prepared for the coming vicious war, then what awaits us will not be victory, but complete despair. ”
When Yang Yi finished speaking, everyone else was silent.
After a while, Shen Cheng said: "In this case, we must be prepared for a long-term war of resistance, and we must not have the idea of winning quickly." ”
Yang Yi nodded slightly, he said so much, in fact, he wanted Shen Cheng to hear that they had such an understanding.
"If it is a long-term war of resistance, you must be fully prepared, such as being able to keep your troops first, and you must not suffer too many casualties in a certain battle. As a result, it is necessary to disperse the forces and make adequate defensive preparations so that the defending forces in various places can support each other. Yuyang gritted his teeth and said, "Obviously, guarding the entire Beacon Mars, let alone four hundred and fifty legions, even if you double the number of troops, it is far from enough. ”
"Then you have to have a choice."
"You mean ......"
"Hold on to the most important areas and give up some places appropriately." Yang Yi smiled reluctantly and said, "In this way, we can not only effectively use limited troops, but also achieve the goal of containing the enemy." Don't forget, as long as the Weavers' assistance is in place, the enemy will not be able to destroy Beacon Mars, or even the Wolf Smoke System, and will only be able to fight a ground war with us. In this way, it is necessary to land the enemy on Mars. ”
"This ......"
"That's true, in the lighthouse star offensive and defensive battle thousands of years ago, Generalissimo Xiao Wentian successfully contained the main army of the Silicon Charm Alliance in this way."
Yuyang was slightly stunned and looked at Shen Chengwen.
"In any case, we know more about Beacon Mars than the enemy, and we have made defensive arrangements in advance, so it is beneficial for us to fight the enemy on the ground." Shen Chengwen didn't explain much, and continued, "It's just that we have to grasp the proportions, especially in the deployment of troops. ”
"Obviously, we've got to be busy." Yang Yi touched his chin and stared at the topographic map in front of him and thought seriously.
"Wait, you said that the Beacon Star offensive and defensive battle thousands of years ago ......"
"Why, you don't know?"
Yuyang shook his head, he was not a soldier, even if he knew about the attack and defense of the Lighthouse Star, he didn't know much about it, at least it was far inferior to Shen Chengwen. (To be continued.) )
