Ji Xinghe, who decided to wait and then join the battle, could only watch as his independent regiment and the mecha corps of the Western Theater launched a charge against the positions of the three major armies of the empire.

Judging from the current situation, the independent regiment and the mecha corps of the Western Theater occupy an absolute advantage.

But this advantage certainly cannot last, because it is impossible for the Empire not to invest in the Great Noble Mechs of the same size, allowing the Independent Regiment to tear through their positions, and then the Federation's long-range firepower to deliver accurate and effective strikes.

As long as the Empire's great noble mechs participate in the war, the Independent Regiment will be sacrificed again.

This feeling is actually very uncomfortable, and it doesn't match his fighting philosophy.

But Davis is right: the Duke of the Empire has not been killed much by Ji Xinghe, and if he kills some more, the Empire will be in chaos.

As of now.

Li Yuanba killed one imperial general (duke), one prince, and one prince (suspected). After these three killings, no imperial duke dared to face Li Yuanba on the battlefield of the Gods Mountain, so Li Yuanba failed to get more gains.

Han Li killed two imperial dukes and one general (duke).

Jackson, Kadilin, Rovic, Andre, and Yu Ren each killed one Duke of the Empire. Among them, Yu Ren's defeat on the battlefield of Vulture Mountain had the help of Han Li and Jackson, so it could not be regarded as a solo break.

The sum of the several of them, that is, except for Ji Xinghe, the Federation killed a total of nine imperial dukes.

Ji Xinghe personally killed eight imperial dukes, and broke six duke armors, among which the driver was the imperial earl, that is, Ai Dakang's personal guard.

Therefore, from this point of view, it is understandable that Ji Xinghe, who has a white body, has only been in the alien star for two years to participate in the war, and has been promoted to a major general by the firing line, and has mastered the independent regiment created by the Federation with a lot of resources.

One person, worthy of the defeat of the Imperial Duke by all the ace mecha warriors of the Federation, even if there is no great general armor broken by Li Yuanba and Han Li, no one will question his strength.

Everyone believes that it's not that Ji Xinghe can't beat the empire's great general A and Prince A, it's just that the empire's great general A and Prince A don't dare to fight him.

He didn't have a chance.

Counting only the Duke of the Empire, the Federation has already killed seventeen.

How many dukes are there in the Empire?

Synthesis of all the imperial captives, including Kazeman, as well as the confessions of Belrossi IV, who was reluctant to speak before, but finally chose to speak after seeing Yinan's death, these imperial orangutans were analyzed.

The number of Dukes in the Empire is still over two hundred, far more than the Federation's ace Mechfighters, and they all have at least one Duke Armor.

And Su Chuanyun and many other ace mecha warriors, but there is no ace exclusive mecha that can be comparable to the comprehensive performance of Duke A.

From this point of view, there is still a big gap between the Federation's top combat power in mecha and the Empire, and Ji Xinghe's killing doesn't seem to make much sense.

But the accounts can't be counted like that.

"Actually, I'm not sure if you kill a few more Imperial Dukes, will make the empire chaotic."

Davis's voice rang in Ji Xinghe's ears.

At this time, the battle on the front line, because of the participation of the independent regiment, the western theater has an absolute advantage, and he only needs to fight step by step, and he, the commander, does not need to do anything to play on the spot.

"But I remember that some of the things you said were the ones you said to Idacom on the battlefield of Vulture Mountain."

Davis didn't have time to explain more before, so Ji Xinghe directly agreed, and now he wants to explain because he doesn't want Ji Xinghe to think that he made such a proposal in order to leave the credit in the Western Theater.

Ji Xinghe also thought of some of the words he had said at the beginning, and Liu Mian, Tang Qiao and others, who were also in the communication channel, also thought of those words.

At that time, Ai Dakang cut Ji Xinghe a lot of knives, and Ji Xinghe slashed back a lot of knives with his backhand, all of which were critical to the knife.

Judging by the results, Ji Xinghe won.

And the real reason for his victory is that he publicly revealed the two biggest contradictions within the empire: first, the contradiction between the imperial family and the nobility. Second, the contradiction between the old and new nobles of the empire.

Davis didn't hear Ji Xinghe's response, so he continued to speak a little nervously.

"Seventeen Imperial Dukes, including two Great Generals, according to Kazeman's confession, as well as the confessions of the Imperial Marquis who were captured by you at Base Five, their fiefdoms together exceed three million square kilometers.

It is about one-third of the area of your Dragon Continent, and it is also about one-third of the area of our Eagle Continent, so this is a very large fiefdom area. Even if the empire occupies a complete habitable planet, the land area is larger than the land area of our Azure Star, and it can divide more than two hundred dukes, as well as more marquises, earls, and many princes with larger fiefdoms.

But these three million square kilometers must also be very important to the empire, and I think that the emperor must want to reclaim these three million square kilometers of fiefdom, but it cannot be easily recycled, because doing so will chill all the imperial nobles.

The nobles of the Empire will believe what you said to Idacon, the Emperor stipulates that you cannot inherit and obtain titles without military exploits, and the main purpose is to reclaim their fiefdoms. Therefore, I think that killing some big nobles such as dukes and marquis of the empire will be able to make the internal contradictions of the empire explode.

As long as the empire is mired in civil strife, our chance has come. ”

After Davis added his previous thoughts, he really wanted to see Ji Xinghe's expression, but unfortunately it was a voice communication, so he couldn't see it.

I could only ask: "General, the reason why you agreed to my proposal is because you think the same way, right?" After all, you've said this before. ”

Ji Xinghe felt a little strange, why did Zhao Mou and Davis, after putting forward very constructive ideas, say that these ideas were originally thought of by themselves?

Do they want to make a sycophant, or do they really think so?

The difference between the two is so big that Ji Xinghe will doubt their character and professionalism.

So he wanted to figure it out.

"Davis."

Ji Xinghe didn't answer, but asked rhetorically: "If because we have killed too many great nobles of the empire, the empire will change the status quo that only nobles can drive noble mechas, and let thousands of selected civilian orangutans drive duke armor, do you think this is good or bad for us?" ”

Hearing this question, Davis suddenly felt a little happy in his heart, and he said softly: "General, if you are testing me, then I can only say that this is definitely a great thing for us. ”

Ji Xinghe asked again, "Why?" ”

Davis didn't answer, but said, "Colonel Liu Mian should know why." ”

During his many years under Kenteves, Davis's military literacy and professional ability are undoubted, and there is no doubt that he is sensible in some aspects.

He felt that this was the test of Ji Xinghe, because Ji Xinghe, who had a strategic thinking mode, how could he not understand such a simple question?

Since this is the case, then you just need to say the results, and the analysis process should be given to Liu Mian, a person from Ji Xinghe.

If it weren't for the fact that Chen Xun was not in this communication channel, but ran to the front line with a sniper rifle to achieve the goal of 'Ten Thousand Apes Slash', he would have given this opportunity to Chen Xun.

Ji Xinghe figured it out, Davis really thought that he had thought of these things in advance, but some of the 'vices' that Kenteves brought to Davis also existed.

But there's no need to be serious about that.

"Liu Mian, you say."

"Yes."

Liu Mian replied immediately: "Just look at the present, this will indeed bring us a greater threat." Because General Tu Yuan and you have said that the biggest advantage of our mecha warriors in the face of the imperial noble mecha is that our mecha warriors are not afraid of death, but the noble mecha pilots of the empire are very afraid of death.

But if it were the Imperial Commoner Orangutan piloting the noble mecha, they would not be so afraid of death, and our advantage in this area would be greatly reduced. Moreover, while defeating the Imperial Noble Mecha before, we were able to intensify the conflict between the Imperial Imperial Family and the nobles, but if those noble mechs were all civilian orangutans, it would be difficult for us to achieve this goal.

But in the long run, this is definitely a good thing for us, because if the commoner orangutans, or those low-level noble ape, can fly better mechs into battle, they will be able to get enough military exploits to make them knighted and promoted to knighthood, which will make the empire produce more new generations of nobles.

In other words, the contradictions between the imperial family and the imperial nobility will be transferred to the old and new nobles of the empire, which is also enough to cause civil strife for the empire. Because this contradiction cannot be completely transferred, but will lead to a greater contradiction between the imperial family and the nobility. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Mian paused slightly, and then said: "There was a period in the history of our Longzhou, when the emperor of the feudal era wanted to achieve a high degree of centralization, so there was a system of pushing grace orders, which aggravated the contradictions between the royal family and the nobles.

At the same time, the emperor had the determination to expand the territory, so he had to be knighted with military exploits to inspire people. But the knighthood itself conflicted with his idea of wanting centralized power, so there was a phenomenon of letting the older generation of nobles make room for the new generation of nobles.

To put it simply, it is a radish and a pit, and with a stronger new radish, it is necessary to pull out the rotten bad radish, and the total number of pits remains the same or even decreases, and the radish has been changed from generation to generation.

Taking history as a mirror, there is nothing new under the stars, and we can be sure that the emperor will inevitably take the same measures to force the old generation of nobles and the new generation of nobles to compete for military merits, that is, for titles, which will lead to the simultaneous aggravation of the two internal contradictions of the empire.

So, that's really good for us. ”

After listening to this, Ji Xinghe asked again: "What if you take a longer view?" ”

"Then that's a bad thing for us, a bad bad thing."

"Why?"

This time Liu Mian didn't answer, as if he had also learned to be humble, and as if he wanted to give Davis a chance to perform in front of Ji Xinghe, or wanted to see if Davis wanted to perform in front of Ji Xinghe.

The difference is actually huge.

Davis understood what Liu Mian meant, because he saw Liu Mian's eyes, so he took the initiative to speak.

"Because the Empire is learning the system of our federation, it is inevitable. A feudal empire that retained the feudal system could not achieve a high degree of centralization, even if the emperor had nuclear weapons, because its nuclear weapons could only ensure that the empire would not have a large-scale rebellion, but it could not prevent the disobedience of those nobles.

In order to achieve a high degree of centralization, the emperor must learn some of the systems of our federation, for example, there is no nominal nobility, and all land and resources belong to the federal government. Including the military, only the governments of the states are qualified to form them, and all of them are under the jurisdiction of the federal government.

If the Emperor is smart enough, no, it must be said that he must be smart, and he must want to achieve this high degree of centralization, and everything in the empire will be governed by a government formed by the imperial family.

Judging from the fact that they don't care about the lives and deaths of those nobles at all, it is very likely that the Emperor has already begun this kind of reform, using the war with us to eliminate the older generation of imperial nobles who prevent it from achieving a high degree of centralization.

The new generation of nobles of the empire will no longer have a high degree of autonomy over their fiefs, except for titles and nominal fiefs, and all governance rights will be taken back by the emperor.

If the Emperor succeeds in completing this reform, then the empire we will face can be turned into a real war machine at any time. So in the longer term, that's a very bad thing for us. ”

Ji Xinghe groaned slightly and continued to ask.

"What should we do?"

Davis and Liu Mian, who were in the command center of the Western Theater, glanced at each other and spoke back and forth.

"Exacerbate the internal contradictions of the empire and let them break out into civil strife."

"End this war before the Emperor resolves the civil strife and completes the restructuring."

In fact, there is another method, Davis and Liu Mian know it, and many people know it, but they are reluctant to say it, because it is impossible to achieve.

Ji Xinghe was noncommittal about the answers of the two, and asked another question.

"Do you think the pattern of alien warfare will change because of this?"

The question itself has already illustrated Ji Xinghe's thoughts, and Davis and Liu Mian can both hear it.

And they all agreed on this idea, so the two began to answer Ji Xinghe's questions one by one, or to supplement the theoretical evidence for the ideas proposed by Ji Xinghe.

"Yes, as the combat effectiveness of the mechs becomes stronger and stronger, the role of conventional forces will become smaller and smaller."

"Our mechs can forcibly break through the fire blockade of the Empire's conventional forces, rush into the enemy's formation, destroy the anti-missile systems, bunkers, firepower output units and other key points of the Empire's conventional forces, and then use long-range firepower to achieve annihilation. In this mode of operation, the Empire's conventional forces can be described as cannon fodder. ”

"Similarly, if the Empire starts using civilian orangutans in large numbers to fly high-performance mechs, they will be able to use this mode of combat against our positions, and our regular forces will also become cannon fodder."

"We have a living base on another planet, and the empire has a jump gate, but these are only auxiliary means, and we can't provide necessary oxygen, water and other daily necessities to the regular forces fighting on the alien planet anytime and anywhere."

"If we transfer the resources invested in conventional forces to mecha troops, we will be able to have more mechs, more efficient mobility, and more powerful combat effectiveness."

"As long as we do this, the empire will definitely do this, they can't always let combat units like independent regiments, use the mecha's ability to break the formation, combined with our long-range firepower that can accurately hit when we have air supremacy, and easily annihilate their tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of conventional forces."

"There is intelligence that for more than twenty years, the vast majority of the regular forces that the empire has really lost on alien planets are the troops of those great nobles of the empire. This is the Emperor's drain on their strength, and it also makes us have to invest more conventional forces. ”

"As soon as the internal contradictions of the empire broke out, the emperor began to restructure. The Alien War mode will be dominated by three types of combat units. Air supremacy units including space battleships and individual starships, firepower output units including artillery, rocket troops, and missile troops, and surface combat units including mecha fighters and individual exoskeleton armored special operations soldiers. ”

"Our regular forces, and the Empire's regular forces, will be converted into auxiliary combat units. The outcome of this war will be determined by three aspects. ”

"Only the air supremacy can always win, and the firepower is supreme, these two aspects need not be said more, it has always been like this, so the real change lies in the mecha."

"Only mechs can deal with mechas, and the war on the alien planet will be dominated by mecha warfare. Because the meaning of mastering air supremacy will inevitably fall on the surface of the war, we are not a real interstellar age, neither is the empire, and the space war is far away from us. ”

"The ultimate meaning of the supremacy of firepower also needs to act on the surface, in the absence of a real space war, all our firepower will serve us and the empire's mecha war."

"Moreover, the essence of this war lies in the control of the alien planet, the leap gate of the empire can only be opened on the surface of the alien planet, as long as we control the alien planet, the empire will not be able to come to the alien planet again."

"So, we're going to enter a new era of war, I like to call it ......"

Davis paused slightly, he regretted that he couldn't see Ji Xinghe at this time, and Ji Xinghe couldn't see him.

Because what he is talking about, and what he is going to say, is inevitably related to Ji Xinghe.

But it doesn't matter, Ji Xinghe can hear his voice and understand his attitude.

He said.

"The era when mechs are king."
