In the outer space of Ricktown Star Zone 3, the Second Corps of the Sun Yan Empire has completed its assembly. In addition to the main fleet composed of more than 1,000 advanced Martial Immortal-class battleships, there are also nearly 10,000 auxiliary ships such as transport and supply ships. The entire Second Corps has surrounded Planet Three.

"Report to the general, our reconnaissance unit has discovered the traces of the Ricktown fleet, and they are assembling in the star field 200,000 kilometers away from us! Movement unknown! ”

The corps command center was located on the flagship of the fleet, and a staff officer reported loudly to several generals gathered next to the holographic command platform.

"Oh?" A general looked up in surprise when he heard the sound, and it was the Shangguan general. Shangguan Xinyi, Supreme Commander of the Second Corps. After seeing the so-called psionic bait in the Imperial Shiyan Center that day, although Shangguan Shinichi put on a look of agreeing with Lin Bin's proposal on the surface, he was not very interested in this high-tech gadget that Roberson had concocted.

In Shangguan Xinyi's opinion, these so-called high-tech gadgets are no different from the sideways. In the Imperial Army, Shangguan Shinichi is a hawk who advocates the supremacy of force. In his eyes, in order to destroy the enemy army, it is necessary to use the powerful army in his hands and use the amazing firepower that destroys the world to destroy the enemy's fighting spirit first, so that the enemy can collapse and chaos, and then win the victory cleanly in one fell swoop.

However, Rao was like this, like the other generals of the Imperial Army, Shangguan Shinichi did not dare to make any criticism in front of Lin Bin's personal proposal. All he could do was to secretly hide all the disdain in his heart, and then put on a happy and convincing jiashi to cater to the young emperor.

As a result, Shangguan Shinichi's pandering succeeded in gaining the favor of Emperor Lin Bin. He was nominated by Lin Bin on the spot to be the supreme commander of this Shiyan operation.

That's right, it's Shiyan fighting! The purpose of this campaign was not to directly swallow up the Ricktown Star District. For the Sunflame Empire, devouring the Ricktown Star Sector was something that could be done anytime, anywhere. The real purpose of this Shiyan operation, which was led by the Second Corps of the Imperial Army, was to test the actual combat effect of psionic decoys.

To put it simply, the Imperial Army of the Sun Flame has used the Ricktown Star Sector as a weapon.

"These poor monkeys dare to bump into the limelight! Not bad, not bad, courage is commendable! The report of the adjutant of staff made Shangguan Xinyi stunned for a moment, and then shook his head and said to his subordinates with a smile: "Generals, let's talk about it, how should we entertain those poor children!" ”

"According to our military's latest updated intelligence, Ricktown's space fleet has less than a thousand old Behemoth-class battleships! With these old-fashioned warships, they dare to dangle in front of our Second Corps, which is really a bit too self-conscious! Vice Admiral Hans, commander of the space fleet of the Second Corps, said with a smile: "I suggest that the other fleet clusters stay in place for the time being, and the main force of our space fleet will attack and directly destroy the space fleet in Ricktown!" ”

"I agree with General Hans's suggestion!" Another lieutenant general, the supreme chief of staff of the Second Corps' Ground Operations Unit, Pi Keyu, could not see a little sadistic look on his face: "Although the other side is just an old-fashioned fleet, it still poses a great threat to our landing force!" The commander asks His Excellency the Commander to immediately dispatch General Hans's main fleet to defeat or annihilate the enemy fleet! ”

As soon as the words landed, the rest of the generals all nodded in agreement.

"Well, since the generals are all unanimous! Then let's give Ricktown's poor monkeys a good lesson, let them see what modern space warfare is! ”

Shangguan Shinichi laughed loudly, and then ordered to the fleet commander, Vice Admiral Hans, with a straight face: "General Hans, I order you to immediately dispatch the second and third fleets to take the initiative to attack the Ricktown fleet entrenched in the rear star field of our army, and directly defeat or completely annihilate the enemy army!" ”

"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander!" Hans put away his disdainful look, turned around and called out to his group of adjutant staff officers in a loud voice, and began to arrange the offensive mission.

A few minutes later, the second and third fleets of the Second Corps Space Fleet, a total of more than 400 advanced Martial Immortal-class battleships, began to slowly break away from the fleet cluster, turned around and headed straight for the Ricktown fleet in the distant star field.

"What? Ran away? However, it didn't take long for the news from the Second Squadron to come back to Shangguan Xinyi and other imperial generals.

Without waiting for the vanguard of the Second and Third Fleets to arrive at the star field, the Ricktown fleet turned around and fled farther away like a group of defeated soldiers in fear. Although the speed of the Martial Immortals-class battleships was a full twenty percent faster than the old battleships of the Ricktown fleet, if they were at full power, they could still catch up with the fleeing Ricktown fleet. But the commander of the detachment who was ordered to lead the team still hesitated and truthfully reported the unexpected situation to the corps command center.

"That's too, isn't it? These poor monkeys didn't even fire a shot, so we weren't scared away? As the commander of the Legion's space fleet, Hensden was a little crying and laughing.

"After so many years of fighting, it's the first time I've encountered an enemy fleet that runs so sluggishly!" Shangguan Xinyi also came back to his senses at this time, shook his head helplessly and said.

"Commander, what now? Was it an order for the 2nd and 3rd fleets to continue the pursuit of the enemy fleet? Hans glanced at the holographic star field map on the command platform, frowned and asked, "Now, the distance between Ricktown's space fleet and the second and third fleets is at least 100,000 kilometers!" It's possible to catch up, but I'm afraid it will take a lot of time! ”

"Forget it, don't play cat and mouse with these poor monkeys! Since their space fleet doesn't have the guts to go toe-to-toe with us, let's leave them alone! The second and third fleets were ordered to stop the pursuit, immediately retreat, and carry out a cruising mission in a star field with Planet 3 as the center and a radius of 100,000 kilometers, so as to strictly prevent the enemy's space fleet from suddenly turning back and launching a surprise attack on our troops! After a little groaning, Shangguan Xinyi waved his hand and ordered in a deep voice.

"According to the commander's order, execute it immediately!" Hans hurriedly turned his head and gave an order to the staff officer who was guarding beside him.

"Generals, immediately prepare to execute the decoy shiyan operation jihua!" Slightly relieved, Shangguan Xinyi raised his hand and pointed to the earthy yellow planet No. 3 on the holographic star field map, and said in a deep voice: "Our emperor Bixia doesn't have much patience!" ”

"Yes!" As soon as the imperial generals said aloud, they all turned their heads and got busy.

About half an hour later, the Space Fleet of the Second Corps took the lead in launching an attack on Planet Three. The orbital defense artillery deployed on the outer space defense network of Planet 3, as well as the defense units of small warships, were swept away by the Martial Immortal-class battleship cluster with powerful firepower in less than ten minutes.

Subsequently, Planet Three, which completely lost its air supremacy in space, ushered in an overwhelming airborne force of the Imperial Army.

Somewhere on the equator of Planet Three, the 13th Panzer Division of the 9th Ground Operations Army Group of the Second Corps of the Imperial Army landed on the ground in the landing capsules of countless landing ships. Two hours later, the armoured unit with its powerful firepower finally broke through the sporadic interception of Ricktown's near-ground forces and successfully completed the build-up.

Immediately afterward, the 9th Panzer Division actually abandoned a city of considerable size that it had just captured, and instead maneuvered to a nearby rolling mountain plateau. Stunned by the Ricktown Army, who had rushed to hear the news, the 9th Panzer Division actually climbed to the highest high ground in the mountain range and stationed itself in place.

"It doesn't matter if they are here to burn incense or worship the Buddha, pass on my order to tear up all these invaders to Lao Tzu!"

Seeing that the officers and men of the Imperial Army were leisurely "occupying the mountain as king", the front-line commander of the Ricktown Army was furious, and desperately ordered to launch a fierce attack on the armored forces of the Imperial Army, which had the advantage of terrain.

As a result, the Ricktown Army, which did not have a large number of advanced weapons, naturally suffered heavy casualties in the first round of onslaught. However, the commanders of the Ricktown Army did not give up, and they were already preparing to show off their killer skills, vowing to let the invaders see the power of the Ricktown Army!
