Section 33 Siegfried Pastoral
The major victory in the Battle of Yi Star Field gave the Wehrmacht officers and soldiers who returned to the Perseus Star Federation an unprecedented warm welcome, especially Rob Bo, who offered the best strategy to annihilate the Imperial Army, and became the focus of attention. As soon as Song Tingrongfu took office, he was even more ecstatic about the victory of the Wehrmacht. In addition to presenting all the awards, he personally went to the Andromeda spaceport to greet the returning soldiers. But underneath the clamor of praise and dazzling accolades, two very important things were deliberately obscured.
One is the 100,000 generals and members of the scientific expedition team of the 13th Fleet. Including Henning? None of General Geisler, including General Geisler, were treated as ordinary prisoners. They are being held in a remote planet far from the bustle of the Federation, on a snow-covered white star. They are under the strict supervision of the special forces of the Federal Security Council and are subject to full investigation and interrogation.
At the suggestion of Dai Yunong, director of the Security Committee, President Song Tingrong, together with the Senate and the House of Representatives, brought together experts in security, national defense, prosecution, and extraterrestrial research to set up a special department, the "Investigation of Captured Persons of Yi Xing" Committee, to interrogate and investigate these personnel who had returned from the interstellar planet "Yi."
Out of secrecy, the Ministry of National Defense also issued a silent order to all officers and soldiers participating in the battle. Although it was learned that there were too many officers and men who had returned from the 13th Fleet, and there would always be some big mouths that would leak some news, the federal government still claimed that the missing men and the fleet were not yet missing.
The other thing is about to happen.
With the aftermath of this great victory, the new president Song Tingrong seems to see the magnificent dawn of unification of the human world. And his defense minister, Admiral Higgins, is also full of ambition. A strategic offensive codenamed "Qin Shi Huang" soon came to the fore.
Song Tingrong's ambition can be seen from the code name alone, this Chinese man who once 'fascinated' thousands of 'women' with his handsome appearance, now wants to emulate his ancient ancestors, fight for the martyrs of his previous life, and dominate the country.
The "Qin Shi Huang" plan is very different from the original "Argo Expedition" plan, which was abandoned halfway.
So, at the Wehrmacht Operations Conference, Defense Minister Leonardo? When Admiral Higgins explained the strategic plan in the presence of the president and the commanders of the fleets, he said proudly: "This is an unprecedented offensive plan. ”
He then elaborated on the goals and steps of the plan.
"Our primary target will no longer be the planet 'New Rhine', but the planet 'African' one thousand three hundred light-years behind her, striking directly at the great granary of the Senate. At that time, our army will concentrate three fleets and detour back to the "African" star field from above the silver road, launch a surprise attack, and capture the planet African-African in one fell swoop. ”
"It's too risky."
Leonid? Admiral Lepnin immediately objected. In his opinion, this "Qin Shi Huang" plan was "exposed" from the very beginning. Bypassing the "New Rhine" planet and directly attacking the "African" planet not only made the battle line very long, but also did not pull out the "New Rhine" planet, and the fleet attacking the "African" planet could fall into the predicament of being attacked at any time.
"The focus of our army is to strike at the base economy on the side of the empire." Higgins said, "Even if we can't capture the planet 'Africa' as scheduled, we can use the war to 'disrupt' the enemy's economic order." ”
"Even if you succeed in making the enemy's economy 'messy' and 'chaotic', General Higgins." "But our three precious fleets are at risk of annihilation, and even the entire Wehrmacht will be dragged into danger." ”
Higgins was very dissatisfied with Lepnin's attitude, but he still smiled and said, "General Lepnin, you may have misunderstood the true purpose of this plan. Again, I emphasize that our army is going to use this operation to strike at the economy on the part of the Empire. In short, the military is used to carry out economic tasks. Therefore, whether or not the planet 'Africa' can be conquered is secondary. And our fleet will not be constrained by the planets, and the room for maneuver will be very large. ”
Lepnin was about to say something, but when he saw Bloomberg, who was sitting opposite, glaring at him, he immediately stopped speaking.
The meeting also ended in the adoption of the "Qin Shi Huang" plan.
Song Tingrong authorized General Higgins to use the first, second, and third fleets. As a result, when the campaign is launched, the Bundeswehr properland will become quite empty.
The Eighth Fleet was stationed in the distant "Yi" star field, and the Ninth Fleet returned to the planet Aegis for rest. The remainder functionally resembles the Sixth Fleet of the Imperial Army's Frontier Fleet, the reorganized Seventh Fleet, and the Tenth Fleet, which consisted of the National Guard. These fleets are still capable of concentrating on one planet, but it is very difficult to maneuver across the vast territory and cope with a possible large-scale attack by an adversary.
Higgins didn't think of these problems, but he thought that the Imperial Army would be greatly damaged after the battle of the "Yi" Star Field, and it would be a problem to defend the country, let alone counterattack into the territory of the Federation. So he's very confident in his plans.
But Lepnin didn't think much of it. After the meeting, he said indignantly to Bloomberg: "Eric, why don't you say a word? ”
"What do you want me to say?" Bloomberg asked softly.
"Although the Imperial Army suffered huge losses, there were still five detachments left in the Central Fleet. Alexander's, 'Charlemagne', 'Attila', 'Hannibal' and 'Constantine' fleets are still quite complete. Although the overall number is inferior to our army, if we concentrate our forces on attacking our army's attack fleet, we still have a great chance of victory. Moreover, at the end of last year, the losses of our army in the second 'Yi' Star Field Battle still could not be recovered, and now the troops are stretched, but they have attacked the enemy's depth regardless of their military strength, and the domestic defense is empty......"
"Alright, Leonid? Mikhailovich. Bloomberg solemnly addressed each other in Russian custom, "No matter how big our opinion is, we can't do anything." Don't forget, we're nothing now. ”
After he reminded him like this, Lepning came to his senses and said helplessly: "Eric, I forgot, I have to go through the discharge procedures tomorrow." ”
"President Song asked us to participate in this meeting just to take this opportunity to win people's hearts. We have enough face, so there is no need to do unnecessary things. ”
Lepnin smiled at his words and said, "I just realized that you are becoming more and more like General Su. ”
"No, if it were a general, he wouldn't be silent at the meeting."
"But then again, we should be satisfied."
"Yes, Mikhailovich. Like you said, we've got a gorgeous curtain call. Of course, we have to thank Robb for that kid. ”
Robb, this kid has made a great contribution. In their war reports, Bloomberg and Lepnin put all the command credit at the campaign level on him, making him a great hero.
For this former 'son-in-law' candidate, Song Tingrong also appeared very "generous" at this time, and specially awarded Robb the presidential commendation order and the "Freedom Star" medal. However, he was very unhappy with the fact that his 'daughter' secretly went to the planet Aegis to see Robb, and gave Song Xiaoyu a "death order" - to see Robb again in the future and break off the father-daughter relationship. At the same time, in order to ensure that the 'daughter' would not go against his will, President Song also specially arranged for the 'female' bodyguard of the presidential palace to escort the 'female' child 24 when the 'female' child went out of the 'door'. On the other hand, he began to look for a new boyfriend for his 'daughter'.
Because of this, after Robb returned to the planet Andromeda, although he was repeatedly received by Song Tingrong, Song Xiaoyu never saw him. This made him feel very depressed.
In the fresh and soft music of Wagner's "Siegfried Pastoral" (also translated as "Siegfried Pastoral"), Luo Zhaobing affectionately comforted his son:
"Don't think about Song Xiaoyu anymore. When she returned from the planet Aegis, she had a big argument with the president's father and the first lady's mother. It is said that a Ming Dynasty blue 'flower' porcelain vase in the presidential palace was also broken. ”
"So serious?" Only then did Rob realize that the relationship between the two had caused trouble to Song Xiaoyu.
"Miss's temper doesn't matter if it's a blue 'flower' or a red 'flower'. In short, you have to understand that Song Tingrong is a person with power and 'desire', and his 'daughter' is a political 'transaction' in his eyes. Now that he is the president, the value of his 'daughter' has skyrocketed, and we can't afford it. ”
Robb understood what his mother meant. At the end of last year, in order to rescue herself, her mother did not hesitate to part ways with Song Tingrong. In Song Tingrong's eyes, he is naturally no longer a "family".
"It seems that the only way to accept this reality is to accept it."
Roboli said helplessly, but a smile spread across his face. For Song Xiaoyu, he is more of a playful mentality. It is not very difficult to make up my mind to cut ties with him now.
"Five-star General Bloomberg and General Lepnin are retiring, and I am afraid that there will be no one to help you in the Ministry of Defense in the future. Be more cautious yourself. Mother instructed.
"I understand, Mom. Don't worry, I'll be able to handle everything on my own. Robb replied confidently.
"That's good. The eagle will one day fly into the blue sky. ”
"Mom, someone wants us to help, I wonder if you'd like to?"
"Who? Help what? ”
"Dr. Chen Weiyin has been captured by our army again. This time, she wants you to give her a political guarantee. ”
"Hehe, that's funny." Luo Zhaobing laughed, "Last time I gave it to her, she didn't want it, but now she took the initiative to ask for it." ”
"Mom, what do you mean......" Robb asked eagerly.
"Nope." Luo Zhaobing vetoed it without hesitation.
"Why?" Robb asked anxiously.
Luo Zhaobing was silent for a while before replying, "The situation is different. ”
"The situation? Is it possible to provide a guarantee for an ordinary scientist to the situation in both countries? Robb didn't understand.
"No, it's about me, we." The mother said solemnly, "I will explain it to you later." Please tell her that it will be impossible for me to provide her with a political guarantee within six months. ”
