Scati? Major Tiassi did not understand the hidden ambitions of Robb's overall plan, and did not understand Robb's silence at this time, so she said wisely:

"Sir, it's natural for the enemy to be on guard, since we are a feint, we don't have to launch an attack on the 'New Byzantine' planet to contain the enemy!"

Robb did not respond directly to her words, but asked, "Isn't it your wish to fight back to 'New Byzantium' and slash those patriarchs?" ”

"Yes, sir!" Tiassi replied without hesitation, and then explained: "However, this is my personal purpose, and it should be under the larger goal of the free and democratic federation to eliminate the autocratic and dictatorial senate!" ”

"Actually, you should also know that our battle this time is not to destroy the Senate, but to force them to sue for peace, in other words, to live in peace with them!" After Robb finished speaking, he stared at Tiasi's cold face.

"That will also be achieved by destroying their army and dictator first, Colonel!" Scati? Tiassi didn't hesitate.

"That's right!" Robb felt bored and talked about this frivolous topic with this cold and cruel female subordinate, and he shifted the focus of the conversation back to the main topic, and asked: "Major Tiassi, which planet do you think would be the best alternative target if we give up attacking the 'New Byzantine' planet!" ”

Tiassi glanced at Robb coldly and said, "I think sir, you have already drawn up a new battle plan!" ”

When Robb received the information from the unmanned reconnaissance ship, he thought of which planet to turn the spearhead of the attack, but he didn't expect the arrogant Scati? Tiassi knew him so well, but he still pretended to be serious and said:

"In my heart I still prefer to attack the 'new Byzantium' as planned!"

"No, sir, attacking the planet 'New Byzantium' has become very dangerous!" Scati calmly analyzed:

"What is in front of us are all unfavorable factors, to the planet 'New Byzantium', our task force still has more than a third of the voyage, and at the current speed of 'Akuberi' from 6.5 to 6.7, we can only arrive thirty days ago!"

"Intelligence shows that Jiang Ziyue went on a date on the evening of the 22nd local time, and the Senate's commendation and the Privy Council's press conference were on the morning and afternoon of the 23rd, respectively, so the 'Zheng He' fleet must have returned to the 'New Byzantine' planet on the 22nd. Although it is still less than our army, but with the enemy's self-proclaimed new fleet 'Caesar', the strength should be above our army, and it is said that Jiang Ziyue will not win without a battle until now! ”

"Haven't I lost a battle?" Robb chimed in arrogantly.

Without further investigation, there were indeed no defeats in the battles commanded by Robb, but the whole country knew that Robb had been shot down and taken prisoner of the New Roman Empire, so Skati? Tiassi did not heed his words, but continued:

"Take 10,000 steps back, even if what we just talked about is a smoke bomb deliberately put by the enemy, we will not continue to march into the 'new Byzantium' planet, judging from the press conference held by the imperial proclamator on the 23rd, the enemy should know our offensive target on the 22nd, in the past three days, plus today, and the next four days, the enemy has time to mobilize more fleets to defend, and when we arrive at the 'new Byzantine' planet, they should have a sufficient number of ships against us!"

"You're right, Major!" Robb finally agreed: "But where do you think our goal should be changed!" ”

"Planet Arthurgard!"

"Why?" Robb asked with interest.

"Because of the exposure of our actions, the defensive focus of the entire New Roman Empire may have completely shifted to 'Neo-Byzantium', and the planet 'Arthurgard', which is not strategically significant, is even less concerned, and she happens to be the closest to us now, and has a large shipyard!"

"No more!" Robb asked.

"Our fleet is behind enemy lines and contained, so attacking the planet 'Arthurgard' can also play a role in attracting the enemy, the planet is attacked, and it is a rear planet closer to the 'New Byzantium', I believe that no matter how brutal and unkind the Senate is, it will also send troops to rescue!"

Hearing her say this, Robb couldn't help but smile slightly, and said, "Skaty, you and I are heroes, and we see the same thing!" ”

"Yes, sir, why do you use the word 'counted'!" Scati was a little dissatisfied, she thought that her thoughts were exactly the same as Robb's intentions.

Robb explained: "Because, I think there is more, attacking the planet 'Atahurgard' can still accomplish our set goal, and when we attack 'Athurgard', if the enemy planet 'Neo-Byzantium' actually lacks troops to defend it, and they can't come to the rescue in time, then we can continue to conquer 'Neo-Byzantium'!" ”

"But what if the 'New Byzantine' planet has enough troops, but at the same time the Senate does not reinforce 'Arthurgard' out of extreme concern for the capital?"

"We can also learn from Jiang Ziyue and his 'Zheng He' fleet after attacking 'Arthurgard', and carry out large-scale guerrilla operations in the rear of the enemy, I firmly believe that our army's overall intelligence analysis of the enemy is accurate, their strength is seriously insufficient, there are less than two sub-fleets left in the Central Fleet, plus the border fleet, we can only concentrate on defending the two planets of 'New Byzantium' and 'Iserlon', so, Skati, we must be in a no-man's land!"

Major Tiassi had to exclaim from the bottom of his heart: "Sir, you are indeed better than your subordinates! ”

"Anyway, Major, order a change of course, and we are heading for the planet 'Arthurgard'!"

Robb is determined to win.

He did not know that the estimates he made about the enemy were not accurate. Although he suspected that his opponent was suspicious of the "New Byzantium" planet, he did not expect Jiang Ziyue to actually assemble on the planet "Arthurgard".

Jiang Ziyue also failed to accurately judge the opponent, he used the ability of his own fleet to deduce the speed of the "Robb" task force's advance, and greatly overestimated the opponent, after leaving the interstellar planet "Yi" on the 20th, he thought that the opponent would be able to rush to the "new Byzantine" planet on the 28th.

Therefore, he did not dare to be careless, and sent out all the unmanned reconnaissance ships and notification ships that he could collect along the way, and went to the outer space of the Perseus spiral arm to search as far as possible, including going to the various scheduled rendezvous spaces obtained on the hospital ship "Behring" to monitor them, in order to find out the enemy as much as possible.

As a matter of fact, the current "Zheng He" fleet is exhausted, and since its departure in January, the range of their guerrilla attacks has exceeded 50,000 light years, and both the personnel and the warships have been used to the limit, especially the "Akuberi" engines on the spacecraft, many of which have been completely replaced several times.

When it was still in the "Yi" star field, the entire fleet was facing a serious crisis of running out of engine parts and complete machine reserves.

Fortunately, the Rainbow Bridge shipyard, which also orbits the star of Heimdallr, the main star of Plaasgard, is a large civilian shipyard, but it has a large number of standard and non-standard "Akuberi" engines that are common to warships.

It not only replenished the urgent needs of the "Zheng He" fleet in a timely manner, but also carried out rapid repairs of warships in an efficient manner, so that the cruisers and other support ships of the entire fleet could quickly return to good condition.

However, Jiang Ziyue knew very well that the battleship had been renovated, but there were no people, his people had no time to rest, and they were still engaged in combat preparations with high intensity, and the entire fleet had been on high alert.

When Zheng He's fleet completed its assembly near the planet Arthurgard on 27 April, and used the local reserves of military supplies to complete the replenishment and ship maintenance, he immediately ordered preparations to continue the march to the planet "New Byzantium".

At this time, an unmanned notification ship arrived in time to report the enemy situation from nearly 2,000 light years away from the Perseus spiral arm, out of concealment, the unmanned reconnaissance ship that discovered the enemy situation did not dare to get too close, so it was impossible to see the size and configuration of the Bundeswehr fleet in detail, but it was completely certain that its course was the planet "Arthurgard".

Jiang Ziyue said to his subordinates in an undoubted tone:

"That must be Task Force Robb!"

"Sir, give the order! We're going to give the enemy a head-on blow! ”

"Yes, be sure to smash them in the outer space of the Spiral Arm!"

The "Zheng He" fleet is gearing up.

"No!" Jiang Ziyue was not in a hurry to attack: "We are returning to 'New Byzantium' as planned, but we must do some necessary work!" ”

He took the initiative to attack at such a distance from the enemy, and the strength of the enemy army was not very clear, so he was not sure of defeating the enemy at all, and would only expose his own strength, which would make all the suspicious tactics he racked his brains to lay out.

At the same time, Jiang Ziyue also issued an order that made the people around him feel dissatisfied and strongly opposed, destroying the space stations around the planet "Athurgard" and all space facilities that may be used by the enemy, including the artificial planet "Rainbow Bridge" shipyard.

The local authorities were extremely angry that the "Zheng He" fleet had abandoned the people when the enemy invaded, and they were even more unacceptable to Jiang Ziyue's request to destroy the industrial and aerospace facilities in space.

"Arthurgard" planetary governor Farrell? Ms. Iqbal, in a video call in standard Mandarin Chinese, angrily threatened Jiang Ziyue:

"Colonel, I don't care if you are a hero or a dog, as long as your fleet dares to break a screw, I will definitely complain to the Senate on behalf of the 170 million fathers and elders of the planet 'Athegar', and file a war lawsuit with the Imperial Court and the Arbitration Committee!"

Farrell? Iqbal, like the vast majority of the planet's populace, does not understand the actions of the military.

Since it is impossible to defend the country, it is necessary to clear the walls and fields, and try to reduce the materials used by the invading enemy as much as possible, and the space stations, space facilities, and space factories distributed in the space around the planet store a large amount of metal hydrogen, spacecraft accessories, and other materials that can be used by the enemy, and if the defenders cannot transfer these energy and materials in time, they must be quickly destroyed so as not to fall into the hands of the enemy and encourage their aggression.

The Immortal Interstellar Federation was unable to do this in time earlier, and as a result, the invading "Zheng He" fleet made a lot of money and completed an unprecedented guerrilla attack behind enemy lines.

Jiang Ziyue had no choice but to accompany the smiling face and persuade: "Madam Governor, I also know very well that doing so will bring serious economic losses to the planet 'Arthurgard', but my people can no longer guarantee the safety of the planet, in order to prevent these facilities from being used by the enemy and not causing greater losses to the Senate and the Roman people, I have no choice but to do so, so, please understand and cooperate!" ”

"I firmly oppose and resist your orders, you can run away, but don't hold us responsible for your failures!" Farrell? Iqbal almost roared, and then the communication was aborted.

In the face of the extreme non-cooperation of the local government, Jiang Ziyue felt embarrassed, but fortunately, he had long expected that the local government would definitely oppose it and did a good job of countermeasures, so he resolutely ordered the captain of the flagship "Siegfried":

"Rudiger, pass the order, according to the final plan we have prepared before, send the interstellar marines, forcibly transfer all the personnel on the predetermined facilities, and then blow them all up, the operation must be completed within ten hours!"

"Sir, can't we not destroy our own facilities?" Rudiger? Natzmer asked, his tone seemed to be very incomprehensible, but in fact he knew very well in his heart that this must be done, because when the Perseus Star Federation did not destroy the unprotected space facilities around the planet in time more than a month ago, so that they could maintain long-distance guerrilla warfare through plunder, now they must not make the same low-level mistake as the enemy.

Jiang Ziyue didn't respond to his question immediately, but said: "Rudiger, I envy you very much, you don't have to bear too much right and wrong, right and wrong!" ”

"Sir...... Rudiger? Natzmer was a little speechless, as a decision-maker, it is indeed not as easy as those of them, who do not have to worry about the interests of all parties and weigh many gains and losses.

"Sir, you're you!" Benjamin? Alfreck said suddenly: "From the moment you led us on the distant interstellar planet 'Yi', you were destined to bear the fate of the Senate and the Roman people, so you must bear countless controversies and reproaches, and if I am not mistaken, you must now recall the 'Nuwa Castle' and the bombardment of the 'New Rhine' planetary governor's palace!" ”

Jiang Ziyue smiled bitterly and said, "Benjamin, this is the first time I've heard your most serious words!" Then, with a stern order, he said: "Let's get moving!" ”

The "Zheng He" fleet quickly launched its first round of military operations after returning to China, dispatching interstellar marines to occupy all seven space stations and the "Rainbow Bridge" shipyard within the stellar "Haim" sheath.

The Senate and the armies of the Roman people drove their allegiances out of the stations, and then planted a large number of metallic hydrogen bombs equipped with remote-controlled fuses.

Jiang Ziyue did not blow up the space facilities around the planet "Arthurgard" immediately after the fleet was distributed, but assigned control of the detonation to the five unmanned reconnaissance ships that remained behind, and these unmanned reconnaissance ships will detonate the bomb when the British Interstellar Federation Defense Fleet enters the "Heimdall" sheath, thus ensuring that the self-destruction behavior only occurs when the enemy actually invades.

Two days later, when the Robb Task Force arrived, they met no resistance, but all the space stations and spaceyards exploded in large quantities, and all of them were wiped out along with a large amount of metallic hydrogen energy and supplies.

Robb was not surprised by this behavior of the New Roman Empire, but when the planetary authorities of "Arthurgard" announced that they would not defend themselves and accept the peaceful entry of federal troops, he was shocked by the information they received, because the local authorities had told Jiang Ziyue and the "Zheng He" fleet about the time and situation of the stationing of Jiang Ziyue and the "Zheng He" fleet.

"It was only on the 27th that we completed the assembly here at 'Arthurgard', but we received information on the 26th that he had a scandal and received a medal on the 23rd in 'New Byzantium', sir, it seems that we were really fooled at the beginning!" Scati? Tiassi said with chagrin.

"In this way, the content of the press conference of the Privy Council of the New Roman Empire on the 23rd is fake, and the news images they released are also fake, even Jiang Ziyue and Dana? Pontic's scandal is also fake, and he actually jokes about Dana! Robb was even more furious.

The truth of the matter has been revealed, and the New Roman Empire has put on a good show from top to bottom, pretending that on April 22, Jiang Ziyue led the "Zheng He" fleet back to the "New Byzantium" planet, which made Luo Boxin believe it was true and changed the original target of attack.

"I didn't expect to be deceived by them like a pig!" Robb was furious that he couldn't see through the enemy's conspiracy.

Scati? Tiassi seemed calm and reassured, "Sir, I'm afraid anyone will be deceived by this perfect deception!" ”

In the face of her comfort, Robb had no choice but to smile helplessly and remain silent.

The press conference of the Privy Council of the New Roman Empire positively indicated that Jiang Ziyue and the "Zheng He" fleet returned to the "New Byzantium", and the crazy dating scandal that came out earlier confirmed the official statement from the side from a civil perspective, whether it was the Senate or Jiang Ziyue himself, they fully mobilized the official and non-governmental media to launch an almost impeccable "information deception war".

"Sir, are we going to attack the 'New Byzantine' planet as originally planned?" Scati? Tiassi asked with concern.

"No!" Robb did not hesitate: "Although our intention to attack in a roundabout way has been discovered by the Imperial Army, and we have fallen for their bluff and deception, we have always been a feint force, and since we have fully demonstrated our intention to attack, and occupied the planet 'Arthurgard', we will definitely be able to attract all the enemy's forces to 'New Byzantium' and the hinterland of the Empire, and our mission can be accomplished, as long as the five-star Admiral Bloomberg leads the other brothers to 'Iserlon' and ' Tai Chi' planet attack, we will still win big! ”

Robb is still confident.

At this moment, a top-secret message came from an unmanned notification ship, the latest instructions from the Ministry of Defense of the Immortal Interstellar Federation.
