With bursts of space distortion in the starry sky, like ripples on calm water, the First Squadron of the First Fleet of the United Empire of Humanity returned to the Andromeda galaxy again. The flagship Red Banner is now slowly flying towards the last territory of humanity in this system. Behind him, human warships, with high morale, followed closely behind the flagship.

......

Just when everyone on the red flagship was immersed in the joy and nervousness of arriving at the destination, there was only one person, no response, yes, Lin Chongzheng was lying in Luo Ping'an's office without responding, his round eyes were waiting for the roof and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Are you done eating?" The door opened, Luo Ping walked in with a security subordinate, saw Lin Chong lying on the ground motionless, stepped forward and kicked Lin Chong's arm gently, and asked emotionlessly.

"! Tap! Lin Zhong squirted out a mouthful of rice, sat up with his arms covered, and couldn't help scolding.

"Give you five minutes to prepare for battle, and then assemble in the hangar when you're done." Luo Ping'an was not angry, he turned around and left after speaking, he didn't even bother to look at Lin Chong, in Luo Ping'an's heart, he thought that this kind of relationship on the ship was waste, and the facts in front of him proved that his cognition was very correct, so he didn't want to say a word to the waste, it was a waste of life.

Lin Chong got up, wiped his mouth, and hurriedly followed behind Luo Ping'an with low eyebrows, he keenly felt that this chief was extremely tired of him, so he couldn't mix it anymore, in case this one day sold him, it wasn't dead or he didn't die, Lin Chong secretly looked at Luo Ping'an as he walked.

"Boy, don't judge me by your dirty thoughts." Luo Ping'an seemed to know what Lin Zhong was thinking, and said coldly. Lin Chong was instantly frightened,, can this old boy be telepathic?

I saw Luo Ping'an nodding lightly with his fingers, and said, "Holographic." ”

Lin Chong was speechless for a moment.

After a while, Lin Zhong followed Luo Ping'an to the equipment warehouse, quickly completed the assembly, and then took the elevator all the way to the hangar. It was full of busy orderlies, passing through the flow of people to the Marine Corps assembly and standby area, next to which was the Marine Corps' transport aircraft squad, with five Blue Shield medium-sized armed troop carriers, each carrying a hundred personnel.

Three squadrons of three hundred marines were already sitting on these troop carriers in full armor, and all of them did not know what task they were about to perform, but sat quietly in their places, and their expressions could not be seen through their helmets.

When Lin Zhong got on the ship, he saw two other troop carriers being loaded with combat robots and some vehicles and supplies.

The visibility of the black troop carrier was extremely low, Lin Zhong groped his way inside to find a vacant seat, sat down, looked left and right, and saw that the people on both sides were motionless, like robots, and the communication channel in the helmet was also silent. For a while, Lin Chong was a little difficult to adapt to such an oppressive environment and atmosphere, and his heart began to become anxious. He gently stabbed the person next to him with his arm, but the person didn't react at all and ignored it.

Inside the troop carrier, only a few signal lights were flashing on, no one was talking, no one was moving.

Lin Zhong listened to the busy and noisy orderly outside, and a strange feeling arose in his heart, he felt like he had fallen into a pitch-black abyss. The lights outside shone just on the rear hatch of the troop carrier, which was brightly lit outside, and it was dark inside, with clear boundaries.

I don't know how long it took, with a bang, the rear hatch began to retract, and Lin Chong's heartbeat began to accelerate. At this time, Luo Ping'an's deep voice came from the channel: "Mission description, after the fleet arrives at Tumenxing, if the enemy has occupied Tumenxing, our department will break into Tumenxing under the cover of the fleet, and recapture the naval base belonging to the First Fleet Task Force in the Sunset Mountain Range to ensure that the fleet can get follow-up supplies." If the enemy does not occupy Tumen, our troops will enter the Sunset Mountains Naval Base and stand by. Done, is it clear? ”

"Clear!" There was a neat and dull response from the channel.

With that, the entire channel fell silent again, the hatch was completely closed, but the cabin was still pitch black.

Lin Zhong felt that his breathing had been suppressed like never before, and he gasped for breath in his helmet. He originally wanted to call Qin Su, but now that it was a public channel, it was quiet, and he didn't dare to break it at will.

In this way, Lin Zhong became restless, constantly twisting his body gently in his seat, and always felt uncomfortable.

......

At the same time, the Tigris located in the planetary synchronous orbit on the other side of the planet on the other side of the planet, there was a cheer, everyone hugged each other and cried, and Chief of Staff Sergei looked at the red flag on the large screen of the command center and wept silently.

Commander Alexander stared at the picture with red eyes, his fists clenched, his shoulders couldn't help but tremble, here they are, here they are! Reinforcements have arrived! He burst out laughing, and everyone in the command center danced, but Alexander laughed and laughed and burst into tears, and fell on the console and wept bitterly.

Seeing this, the others gradually calmed down from the crazy joy, and gradually stopped laughing, they looked at the commander who was crying bitterly at the desk, the chief of staff who was speechless and tearful, and the deputy commander who had just entered the command center and leaned against the corner to secretly wipe his tears, and the joy in his heart for the arrival of reinforcements instantly dissipated without a trace.

After a long silence, the combat staff officer came to Alexander's side without dry tears, saluted solemnly, and reported in a hoarse voice: "Report to the commander, I am sorry to report an expected bad news now, another fleet-level gravitational fluctuation, it is the main fleet of the Tuckers, which has completed the jump, according to the last picture transmitted back by the drone, its scale is about one hundred and fifty, of which there are twenty giant whale warships that have been discovered." ”

After speaking, the combat staff officer lowered his head in a somewhat sour mood and turned around and returned to his post.

When everyone heard the news, their hearts were suddenly mixed, and they didn't know how to describe it.

"We ...... Do you send a message to a detachment? Deputy Commander Green rubbed his cheeks and walked over to Alexander.

"No! We are not sure if the enemy has the technology for quantum interception, and once we send, perhaps the location of a detachment will be revealed in advance. Sergei, the chief of staff who was checking the drone reconnaissance information in front of the screen, hurriedly stopped.

"Indeed, our hasty opening of communications may have harmed a detachment, and our fleet is unable to perform gravitational wave scanning in the jump, but it is not known whether the enemy has unknown technology." Green nodded, and couldn't help but worry, if the enemy had other advanced detection techniques, then a detachment might have been exposed, and maybe the enemy would be attacked first.

Alexander pondered for a moment and said: "Probably not, if the enemy has such a technology and detects the position of a detachment in the jump, then why not end the jump in advance, use long-range weapons to prepare for a positioning strike in advance, and wait until the moment when the fleet ends the jump and launch a direct attack?" If it were me, I would choose it this way. ”

"Makes sense, so what do we do now? I think the Tuckers will find out about us soon. Green looked at Sergei and asked.

"Wait and see what happens, wait for the right time!" Sergei seemed to have an idea after a little calculation.

A gleam flashed in Alexander's eyes, and he seemed to understand what Sergei meant, and said: "The Tuckers will definitely find us first, then they will attack us, and then a detachment will find out that there is a situation." If the Tuckers find us and a detachment at the same time, then they will strike at the same time. ”

"We are now monitoring the posture of the enemy's fleet at any time, once we find that the enemy's giant whale battleship is moving, it must be a detachment, at this time, we will take the lead in firing at the enemy!" Chief of Staff Sergei added.

"Got it!" Green nodded, and immediately went to the war room to deploy the mission.
