"And it will be the biggest defeat in the history of the Empire. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Lieutenant General Justin replied with a half-step forward. He was a tall, lanky man in his forties, skilled in tactical theory and debate, and a staff officer-type soldier who gave the impression of being sharp and tough.
"The enemy is twice as large as ours and is outflanked from three directions. This also means that in the event of an engagement, the enemy will have the upper hand. "
Luo Feng Ram's ice-blue eyes flashed with a clear light, and he looked directly at the lieutenant general coldly.
"Do you mean that our army will be defeated?"
"----I didn't say that!, Your Excellency, it is a fact that our army is in an unfavorable situation now, and if you look at the screen, you will understand ......."
Seven pairs of eyes focused on the projection on the command table, Zhong Yuan pointed out the situation of the configuration of the two armies to Luo Fenglam, and there were tiles on the screen. Several soldiers outside the sound-blocking force field looked curiously at the superiors, and Lieutenant General Justin glared at them before they looked away in a panic. After two dry coughs, Lieutenant General Justin spoke again.
"This time, the formation is the same as back then, the Three Mountains Empire Space Fleet of the Golden River System attacked to quell the rebels who claimed to be the Free Planet Alliance, but instead they were defeated!"
"Is it the Saigon Annihilation War?"
"Yes! It was indeed a sad defeat!" The lieutenant general's mouth spat out a heavy sigh and continued:
"The justice of war rests entirely on our officers and men, the ruler of human orthodoxy---- the Emperor, and his loyal ----subordinates, but the cunning rebels have resorted to insidious tricks, and my loyal army of millions has been buried in the void. In this battle, in order to avoid repeating the mistakes of the previous time, therefore, according to the humble opinion of our subordinates, we must not be greedy for merit and rush forward, and should retreat with honor as soon as possible to protect our reputation!"
What an incompetent rapper! Luo Fenglam said secretly in his heart, but he said this in his mouth:
"You are indeed a good man!" However, I do not agree with you, because I have no intention of retreating!"
"...... What's the reason?
A pair of "You can't teach a child!" The stinking expression was written on Justin's face, and Luo Feng Lam replied casually:
"Because, our side has an overwhelming advantage over the enemy army!"
"How?"
Justin raised his eyebrows. Nimitz's expression was gloomy, while Cheng Wei and Xu Ming looked at the young and handsome commander with stunned expressions.
Among the five, only the youngest Zhang Chengwu was waiting to see a good show, his water-colored eyes pointed out a playful expression. Many people say that he was born into a low-class aristocracy and became a soldier in order to make ends meet. He is good at fast attack and mobile with his troops, but he is a little impatient and tenacious in defensive battles.
"I still don't understand what you mean, can you explain it again, I can't thank you enough......" Lieutenant General Justin said sharply.
The facts in the future will finally convince him, and Luo Fenglam answered his question: "The advantages I mentioned are as follows: First, compared to the enemy, the forces are scattered from three directions, and our army is only concentrated in one place. As far as the overall strength is concerned, the enemy has 40,000 ships and our army has 20,000 ships, which is true, the enemy has the advantage, but when the firepower is concentrated against one of the enemy forces, our army with 20,000 ships is more than any of the three enemy armies, and it is our army that has the advantage!"
"Second, firstly, according to the enemy's present route of advance, once the war begins, if we can defeat the enemy's Fourth Fleet in front before they meet, then the next target will be the Second or Sixth Fleet, which is on the right and left, and then move from one battlefield to the next, and our troops in the center are relatively close, and whether we want to attack either of the two enemy armies, the other will inevitably be beyond our reach and quite difficult. In addition, when the two armies have not yet started a war, if the enemy changes its plan and wants to move to other battlefields, it is bound to make a detour and make a lot of effort, giving our army an opportunity to take advantage of. In this way, time and distance have become the weapons of our army!"
"In other words, our army has the two major advantages of concentrating forces and dispatching maneuvers, which is not a condition for victory, what is it?" The tone was sonorous and powerful, and it hit the nail on the head.When Luo Fenglam finished speaking, Zhong Yuan felt as if the five admirals had become fossils at that moment. Compared with these veteran soldiers who have experienced a lot of battles, Luo Feng Ram is more flexible in thinking and more able to understand power and change.
Luo Feng Ram's cold gaze swept over Lieutenant General Justin, who was standing aside, and continued: "We are not in the danger of being besieged, but this is a great opportunity to break the enemy in every way! And you have to give up this golden opportunity and retreat in vain, which is tantamount to being negative! What is our own task? That is, to crusade against the rebels and annihilate the enemy! You said that in order to protect your reputation, you should retreat with your whole body, but the task assigned by His Majesty the Emperor has not been completed, what is the reputation? Aren't you arguing for your cowardice?"
When the word emperor was mentioned, except for Zhang Chengwu, the other four admirals were all on pins and needles, and all of them were trembling. Seeing their boring actions, Luo Feng Ram was unmoved.
"Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief may say so, but ......," Justin argued.
"The so-called great opportunity is just your Excellency's opinion, and judging by the common sense of military science, it is really unconvincing......!
Luo Feng Lam immediately concluded in his heart that this guy was not only incompetent, but also pedantic at all! Without an unprecedented battle, naturally there would be no actual achievements to speak of, and it was really ridiculous to deny the feasibility of the operation on the basis of this alone, and the actual achievements would be created in future battles!
"You'll be able to see it for yourself tomorrow, is there anything else you don't know?"
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, as long as you can faithfully follow my battle plan!"
"Can you elaborate a little bit?"
Justin asked, full of suspicion revealed. Luo Feng Lam glanced at Zhong Yuan and began to explain the battle plan.
Five minutes later, Justin's shouts erupted from inside the shading field.
"It's not going to work on paper! Your Excellency, this kind of ......"
Luo Feng Ram slapped his palm on the command platform.
"Well, there is no need to say anything! His Majesty the Emperor has appointed me as the commander of the expeditionary force, and you should obey my command to prove your loyalty to Your Majesty! This is the duty of the Imperial soldiers, isn't it? Don't forget! My class is above you!"
"........."
"The power of life and death is in my hands! If you dare to be stubborn and betray Your Majesty's will, I will remove you from your post and severely punish you for the crime of disobedience! Do you understand?"
Luo Feng Lam forced his eyes to look at the five people in front of him, and the five of them were silent.
"His Majesty the Emperor also granted me a secret master, and for those who disobey the order, they can be cut first and then played. There is no need to report to His Majesty and the Cabinet. Luo Feng Ram finally moved out of the killer feature.
