Chapter 770: The Strongest Enemy
"We must admit that humanity has been the strongest enemy since the establishment of the Legion, and there is no one - even this time can be traced back to the time of the Divine Ancestors 10,000 years ago."
Decca's voice echoed heavily and powerfully through the conference room.
His colleagues, or their former colleagues, looked at him with a little surprise - in everyone's memory, Decca was a proud figure as the second executive officer and a close assistant to Hall!
You must know that in the general execution base, the chief and deputy executive officers are often not very harmonious, and various small groups of forces are born from this - this is also one of the ways for the corps headquarters to balance these bases with heavy troops, so many times, when configuring the base forces, they will even deliberately select two people who do not deal with each other to serve as the chief and deputy, and thus test the wisdom of both sides.
But this is not the case at Base 31.
Thanks to Hall's strength, or the strength behind it, Decca was not appointed by above, but he personally came to partner with him!
In a sense, Decca lost a chance to be promoted, so he willingly became Hall's assistant - from this can also show how strong Hall's wrists are.
So naturally, as a "compensation", although he does not have his own authority and power like other secondary executives, Decca "shared" power from Hall at Base 31, and even for a long time, he was a symbol of Hall's power!
However, from the total destruction of Decca's fleet and the full responsibility for the early failure of Base 31, he was not dragged back to his home planet for accountability, and he can even appear in the conference room as a commander to this day...... It can be seen how much Hall maintains Decca.
A person who is maintained in this way...... How could he not be arrogant?
Could it be that Dika was really woken up by humans? Or is he deliberately exaggerating the power of human beings in order to justify his failure?
"Some people might think I'm making excuses for the destruction of my fleet." Dika seemed to understand everyone's thoughts, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he hummed softly: "Losing is losing, let alone losing to such a fleet, is it a shame?" There is no shame. β
Decca pointed to the projection on the conference table, "The enemy has been encircling until now - you see, their fleet, although it is very consistent, has been moving towards the periphery of our ship group. β
"Then it is obvious that the enemy's base camp must have hidden strength in order to form an encirclement."
"As I said earlier, we must judge the enemy as if he were the strongest opponent, the most cunning of the enemy - then we cannot easily expose our intentions."
Dika felt his mouth a little dry as he spoke, and he almost subconsciously turned his head and shouted "water".
Of course, there was no one behind him to answerβthere was certainly no way that a Sin Slave would be present at the Battle Meeting.
"...... Sun," Dika continued, taking a sip from his cup, "Our intention was to determine that the enemy must have a hidden mobile force to deal with the war between the 32717 and 31919 systems - don't forget, they also have artificial jump points. I don't think I need to remind you how important spacecraft artificial jumps are, do you? β
Everyone nodded.
Indeed, the Man-Made Jump Generator is the cornerstone of the Holy Empire's ability to rule the entire universe, and it makes the vast universe a smooth path.
Not to mention the ship-style artificial jump generator, which allows the Legion to complete the instantaneous projection of power over long distances, but is especially valuable due to its extreme energy requirements and extremely sophisticated structure.
Even at Base 31, there were only twenty-four man-made jump ships in the entire base - Decca had lost eight. This leaves other fleets with no choice but to travel long distances across the galaxy to reach the battlefield.
"So, inducing the enemy's hidden maneuvering forces is our first goal. And then while retreating, encirclement and suppression! Finally, the enemy will complete the long-term attrition of maintaining the balance of power and even superiority. β
Dicka's voice fell, and his fat hands quickly operated on the controller, and then, the tactical simulation evolution began to appear on the star map - I saw that when the imaginary enemy came to support from the star gate, intending to form a typical V-shaped encirclement with the current enemy fleet, the seemingly chaotic spaceship quickly began to change formation, and quickly maneuvered towards the enemy's current two fleets in two crescent-like arcs, and then completed the division!
Needless to say, this will lead to the possibility that some ships that turn too slowly will be bitten by the enemy's tail, but so what?
Humans chase after behind, but they don't run as fast as they run in front! And there are not as many as the ones running in front - as long as the fleets on both sides pass at high speed, it will become the scythe of death, and completely wipe out the five hundred or so warships of mankind now.
And the remaining enemies, as long as they dare to continue chasing...... The railgun is not a vegetarian - the railgun has not been used, firstly because it has been fighting with humans before, and secondly, because the railgun is too troublesome to dispatch and is more suitable for attacking tough battles.
But that doesn't mean railguns are useless.
β¦β¦
Liana poked the pen lightly on her cheek and listened quietly, a relieved smile on her lips.
She's certainly not an expert on war, but she's been stationed at Base 31 for a year, and even once she organized a combat meeting, according to her cleverness...... Even if she doesn't know tactics anymore, she understands some.
Therefore, she could naturally hear that Decca's tactics were effective - provided that the current more than 2,000 warships could defeat the enemy's 500 warships head-on.
Can you win?
- For most of the past six months, Hall and Dika's most important task has been to test the gap between the Legion and the enemy's warships through skirmishes.
It may be a bit incorrect to say that it is a gap, because in the actual assessment, the gap between the two warships is actually not large, especially against the warships of the Shangkrong and Kra peoples, the warships of the legion still have an advantage.
What is really bad is the technology and error of aiming and concentrating firepower in combat, as well as the elusive sub-light missiles of mankind - but sub-light missiles, now there is a way to deal with them, that is, to configure strong electromagnetic radiation jammers at the end of the warship - human subsonic missiles are guided by electromagnetic wave reflection at the end.
And as we all know, the error can be adjusted, and the technique can be improved through training.
Humans have hidden reserves, and the executive officers of these chicken thieves at Base 31 also have a hand - in the previous confrontation, in the conventional battleship main gun duel, the battleships of the legion have actually been able to do even 2 for 1!
And now, the legion has quadruple combat strength, plus orbital ships that can be supported at any time......
The advantage must be in the legion!
At this thought, Liana also looked at Hall, and saw that the corners of Hall's mouth also showed a meaningful smile, so she smiled too, and then exhaled softly.
She knew that Hale's quest had never been to wipe out all of humanity's fleets in one moment......
All Hall wants is to eliminate an uncertain "threat" - the legion must have an enemy, but the enemy's power must be controlled and restrained.
Only in this way can Base 31 have the right to speak in the war.
Retracting her gaze, Liana looked at the portable device in front of her again, and when she saw the fourth planet, she seemed to realize something, her brows suddenly furrowed slightly, and she coughed lightly while everyone was communicating: "I have a question, can you ask it?" β
Hall immediately looked at her and smiled gently, "Anna, when have you been so polite?" β
Liana pursed her lips slightly, first glanced at Dicca, and then smiled: "People don't want to steal the limelight from Dicca!" β
Dika was drinking water from a water cup, and he laughed when he heard this: "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about, what do you call me in the limelight?" β
Called "sister-in-law" by Dicca, Liana's face turned slightly red - and it was only for a moment, after all, in the past six months, several Hall "brothers" have called her sister-in-law, but it is the first time that she has called her so on such a formal occasion as today.
Of course, this can also show that the stalemate with humans for more than half a year has not been defeated, and even now there is still the strength to launch an offensive, which makes everyone present feel very happy.
It's just that...... This sister-in-law...... She's a little embarrassed to "be" - after all, she's not officially Hall's woman yet.
"Anna, you just say it."
"yes, okay." Liana put down her pen and muttered for a few seconds before she said, "That's right, Planet 4 of 32717 has intelligent creatures under the sea. β
With that, Liana projected a document onto the projection.
This is a video from the bottom of the sea, and it is evident that there are various ancient rocks and corals built of cities and sea creatures that travel back and forth in the city.
"This is a video from the Enlightenment Society's expedition three hundred years ago, and judging from the judgment of the front, humans should have discovered this creature as well. And the direction of the movement of our warships ......"
Her voice fell, and several people looked at each other in surprise at the same time.
"Sister-in-law, you won't be guilty of Sumaya, will you? This primitive creature you also have to consider? β
"Sister-in-law, we're not going to rob the planet......"
Liana shook her head, looked at Hall with a somewhat serious expression and said softly: "Hall, it's not that I'm sick with Sumaya, but there are very few samples of high-level aquatic intelligent creatures, and they are rarely found in the entire universe...... It is an excellent object to observe. β
"I mean, as long as possible, you can keep the main gun against the planet without affecting the battle." Liana paused, "And from the perspective of cooperation, there is no need for us to annoy the Enlightenment Society at this juncture. β
As soon as she finished speaking, Prophet Dieter on the side nodded with a smile and took the lead in echoing: "From the perspective of a scholar, I also agree with Anna's consideration. β
Seeing that the two representatives from the Prophet's House had expressed their positions, Holly nodded slightly and laughed, "Of course you can, and it should be." β
Liana was slightly stunned, then laughed heartily.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
There was still a day's time before the battleship was in place, and the meeting naturally could not last until that time.
At the end of the meeting, Liana deliberately fell last β she wanted to know what Hale really thought, and wished she could do a little bit of a favor in the most important battle to date β and there was no doubt that, as Decca said, humans were smart. So...... Will humans be able to realize the base's intentions? If humanity is aware, then what can be done?
Hale willingly let everyone go first, and when everyone had left with strange expressions, he happily walked up to Liana, his gaze gently falling on Liana's face, which obviously didn't look very young anymore.
Liana got up from her chair and found that Hall was so close to her that she leaned back against the conference table.
Meeting Hall's eyes, Liana felt her face get hotter and weaker, so much so that she had to prop her hands on the table.
But Hall, this guy actually has to inch inch, and has always kept a distance of an arm's length from her.
"What do you want to do!" Liana took a soft breath, her eyes glaring sharply when she realized that she couldn't resist, but as soon as she spoke, she knew that she had said it at the wrong time......
This guy's answer is definitely the same as last time.
Sure enough, Hall smiled: "Yes!" β
As he spoke, he reached out and put his arm around Liana's waist, then bowed his head.
"Hmm...... You ...... thing."
Her mouth was blocked instantly, but Liana instantly let go of all resistance, and after a moment, she closed her eyes, and the spiritual touch above her head began to slowly rise.
Like an elf, the Psitronic Touch danced above her head, then slowly approached Hall's Psionic Touch, eventually touching each other slightly.
A wave of pleasure that cannot be described in words rises in the mind.
This is an emotional exchange that only belongs to the higher creatures of the Divine Imperial.
β¦β¦
After a long time, Liana slowly opened her eyes.
She pursed her lips vigorously and stuck out her tongue slightly.
Her actions fell in the eyes of Hall, who was close at hand, and there was an indescribable cuteness.
"Dislike me?"
"No, it's just a little numb." Liana bit her lower lip lightly, supported the conference table and stood up, her eyes rippling with watery clarity staring at Hall: "You are honest, how many sinners have you practiced?" β
"I didn't!"
"That's so good?"
ββ¦β¦ I really didn't ......" Hall still stared at her: "How do you deserve it?" No...... How are other women matched? β
Rao knew that Hall's words were a bit fake, but to Liana's ears, it was as pleasant as heaven.
A strange thought suddenly flashed through her mindβit was something she could experience just by the touch of a psychic touch......
When the final ceremony is performed...... What would it feel like?
Of course, this thought was only a flash in the air, and she quickly suppressed it.
For the final ceremony, you must pick the best moment - wait a few more days, and the war that has plagued you and the entire 31st base for several years will have a decisive moment.
She's not in a hurry.
