Mars-1 satellite, the first detachment of the First Fleet of the Imperial Navy. This is a satellite of Mars, which was built into a naval dock by the Navy, and the First Fleet was assigned here for repairs, and now the fleet has completed its rearmament and is preparing for departure.

There are all kinds of spacecraft coming and going throughout the satellite, but the most striking one is the Red Banner, the flagship of the First Fleet, which has been lifted off and is ready to go. The ship is an Arctic-class multi-purpose capital ship, generally used as a command ship, with balanced performance, equipped with a faster-than-light engine as well as a nuclear-powered conventional engine. The hull is about 200 meters long, has a built-in hangar, can accommodate 50 small fighters of all kinds, the top of the hull is half of the flat external take-off and landing platform, half of the side is naval guns. The whole ship is divided into five floors, about 60 meters high, with conventional engines on both sides of the tail end, a lifting platform on the front belly of the hull, and four large energy cannons mounted on the rear half of the belly. Along the sides of the hull armor, there is a long row of small naval guns built into the hidden. The front end of the ship is the space where the bridge is located, here is the brain of the whole ship, and the entire bridge needs about 15 crew members. The captain's command position is suspended above the rear of the bridge cockpit, with a panoramic view of the entire bridge. The head of the spacecraft uses a hologram to show the outside in full.

In addition to the flagship, which is already on standby in the air, other ships are also taking to the skies.

Living deck, captain's room.

"Report to the captain, in an hour, the fleet will all be in the air." The bridge command room reported to Duan Xiong, who was looking at the information on the desk, through the communication system.

"Well, in twenty minutes, let the captains of the ships come to the flagship for a meeting." Duan Xiong looked at the time and commanded.

"Yes, Commander." The command room received the order and quickly issued the order through the fleet command and communication system.

After a while, small traffic boats flew from all over the place and landed on the external take-off and landing platform of the Red Flag.

In the flagship combat conference room, the holographic star map is slowly rotating, surrounded by a circle of captains wearing admiral uniforms, both old and young, all with serious faces.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Duan Xiong spoke: "Ladies and gentlemen, the naval intelligence department has detected abnormal gravitational fluctuations in the Magellanic Nebula, and they suspect that the advance force of the Tuckers has arrived in the Magellanic Nebula. The Navy Command ordered the First Fleet to assemble urgently, and after the assembly at the Jupiter Naval Base was completed, it was dispatched to the Magellanic Nebula for defense. ”

"Commander, in the last battle, we lost the entire Andromeda galaxy, and the fleet suffered so many losses that we had to shrink our defense line to be able to fight back, and now we are in a bad position to respond in a hurry." A long-bearded old man said with a worried face.

The rest of the people also nodded silently, as the old captain said, the last time the navy fought was in the Andromeda galaxy, which was originally the defense area of the First Fleet, but because the Tucker people came too suddenly, the First Fleet was caught off guard, and they didn't even know what kind of opponent they were. After collecting and studying the wreckage and corpses of the battlefield, the technical department compiled some relatively certain information. The report states that the Tucker Man is a humanoid creature with a rough and hard skin, three fingers and three eyes, walking upright, a lizard-like triangular head with a lizard-like tail, and the adult male Tucker has a tail about an arm's length with bulbous scales at the end, similar to a meteor hammer, and is very hard. When Tucker gets angry, he will raise his tail and raise his tail hammer high as a sign of intimidation. Females have a smooth tail, no tail hammer, a high-pitched voice, and are smaller than males.

For the Tucker fleet intelligence, the navy is very shocked, at first the Tucker people's spaceship shape is just strange, but later research found that the Tucker people's spaceship turned out to be alive, the technicians called it a living spaceship, it seems to be a kind of biological technology modification, equipped with weapons and engines, it seems to be a violent and rough patchwork, but has a strong maneuverability and concealment ability, so that when the enemy's fleet appeared in the hinterland of the Andromeda galaxy, the first fleet reacted.

Duan Xiong's detachment has fought with the Tuckers, and it is the least loss in the entire fleet, that is because of Duan Xiong's super high acuity, Duan Xiong, who was patrolling the fleet at the time, suddenly received a report from the reconnaissance department of his fleet, saying that many planetary ground observation stations in the galaxy reported the discovery of UFOs in the planet, but the intelligence department of the First Fleet at that time ignored this seemingly ordinary report because of the normal results of sentinel satellites and gravitational detection.

The keen-eyed Duan Xiong immediately realized that something was wrong, quickly made a deployment of the fleet's combat readiness, and sent a reconnaissance force. Therefore, when the war broke out, half of the ships of many fleets were stationed at bases, and only the first squadron was fully lifted into the air and made a combat posture.

"Ladies and gentlemen, a defeat doesn't prove anything, we still have a strong fleet, although the Tuckers are unknown to us, can defeat be avoided without a fight? When two civilizations meet, if the two sides are evenly matched, then the one who discovers first will definitely strike first, if the other party's civilization level is much higher than ours, maybe, they don't even bother to look at us, not to mention sending a powerful fleet to destroy us may be a matter of blowing breath, isn't it? Duan Xiong looked at all the captains and said calmly and confidently.

After hearing this, everyone thought about it, and their eyes gradually brightened. The commander is right, although we don't know anything about the enemy, but the enemy may be the same, even if the human race is one-way transparent to the Tuckers, it doesn't matter, since they come to attack with great fanfare, it means that their level is not much higher than that of humans, so to seize the opportunity and take the lead in attacking, this is not only a game on the battlefield, but also a psychological game.

After figuring this out, the captains regained their confidence.

"The commander is right, if it is really a third-level or even fourth-level civilization, why do you need to work so hard to destroy us?" A tall, lanky captain excitedly. "Guys, all we have left is the galaxy behind us, no matter how strong the enemy is, we have no way back, think about our hometown."

"Yes, what are you afraid of, it turns out that the enemy is not unkillable, the big deal is that we sacrifice more!" A middle-aged captain standing beside Duan Xiong clenched his fists and made a categorical and impassioned speech.

For a while, the crowd was excited, Duan Xiong looked around at everyone, and was very satisfied, worthy of my Duan Xiong's soldiers, all of them are good, oh yes, speaking of which, Lin Chong's kid should be almost there, I just hope he won't embarrass my first fleet.
