A conference room in Base 5.

Ji Xinghe, who was wearing a radiation-proof combat suit and a helmet, actually sat in the main seat, with Wang Wei and Chen Xun sitting next to him.

This is somewhat unruly, but the reason is simple.

When Wang Wei entered the conference room, he felt that the people in the Galaxy Team looked at him something wrong.

He could understand the thoughts of Team Galaxy: Our captain came to Base 5 to recuperate and receive treatment, but you asked him to wear armor and join the battle...

Wang Wei said: Follow your heart, not be timid.

Except for Andre, who went to conduct actual machine testing, and the people who went to communicate the details of their new mechas, everyone else in the Galaxy Team was sitting upright in the conference room.

There are also several staff officers at the base, similar to Chen Xun's previous experience at Base No. 6, all of whom have the rank of lieutenant colonel.

"The Shenshuiyuan space battleship, the command ship of General Tu Yuan, is the first space battleship in our federation equipped with a mecha orbital airborne combat platform. This is our advantage and we should use it."

A lieutenant colonel staff officer from the base operated the holographic projection on the conference table and began to explain a highly dangerous combat plan that they and Tu Yuan's command team had previously formulated.

"The empire's main force has more than 500,000 troops. The number of reinforcements is unknown. All the troops in our base are soldiers. Including the troops mobilized from the blockade, there are only 150,000 troops. The gap is really huge."

"Now, the main force of the empire is divided into four marching routes. This is to avoid encountering our nuclear strikes and large-scale fire coverage attacks."

"However, we do not have authorization to use nuclear weapons, and we cannot use them. If we use them, they will most likely drop nuclear weapons directly on our bases."

"This is a rule agreed between us and the empire."

War is not about treating guests to dinner. There are often no rules at all. The key to winning a war is to use whatever means necessary. After all, soldiers never tire of deceit.

But at some point, war must abide by some rules.

The most well-known rule is about surrender and prisoners. If neither side of the war is allowed to surrender and neither party is willing to accept prisoners, then any battle must be fought to the last drop of blood.

From some aspects, this is not a good thing for both warring parties.

Humans do not lack the courage to fight a last-ditch battle, and neither do the orangutans of the empire. Outbursts of desperate will often bring unnecessary casualties.

The war between the Federation and the Empire was because there was no such rule, so both sides suffered heavy casualties.

The prisoners captured by Ji Xinghe are not included in this situation, because his prisoners were 'captured'.

In this alien war, the only rule that the Federation and the Empire had to abide by was the use of nuclear weapons.

The nuclear weapons possessed by both sides are enough to destroy everything on the surface of the alien planet. This kind of loss is unbearable by both sides.

Because the essence of this war is about the invasion of territory and the plunder of resources, not the annihilation of races.

Neither side has the ability to exterminate the other's race for the time being.

The Empire's jump gate cannot reach the Azure Star, and spaceships and battleships cannot fly into space from the alien planet.

The Federation and the Empire have been fighting for more than twenty years, and they don't even know where the Empire's star is.

In the past twenty years or so, the Federation's limited use of nuclear weapons was due to the capture of Base No. 1 and the failure of several space battleships to self-destruct in conventional ways.

The latter cannot be regarded as the use of nuclear weapons on a frontal battlefield, while the former caused the empire to use nuclear weapons once.

Since then, the Federation and the Empire have almost never used nuclear weapons. When Base 3 was captured, the Federation had not used nuclear weapons.

After Ji Xinghe came to the alien planet, there was another rule between the Federation and the Empire: challenge before the formation.

"Our first target is the Imperial mecha on this march route."

The staff officer continued to introduce the contents of the combat plan.

"On this march route, our engineering troops have deployed many mines, many detection eyes, and beacons and other devices to guide long-range fire strikes. In order to speed up the march, they chose a coordinated cleaning method with machines and tanks.

"

"This is our chance."

The holographic image on the conference table showed the imperial mechas on this march route, as well as other ordnance that cooperated with the cleaning.

It looks like a much reduced 3D animation.

"There are a hundred mechas in the vanguard. The distance between them is relatively scattered. The distance from the main force in the rear is more than two kilometers. The main force has four hundred mechas."

"According to our calculations, during the orbital airborne process, they will find our orbital airborne mecha warriors, and the mechas from the main force behind will provide support."

"Four minutes, only four minutes of fighting time. If you exceed four minutes, you will be entangled by the enemy's main mecha formation."

Mechas march very quickly, and the empire's conventional mechas can reach a top speed of over sixty kilometers per hour.

But it is impossible for them to start charging to support the Federation orbital airborne mecha as soon as they discover it.

So four minutes is just a little less.

"In this case, our orbital airborne mecha warriors must choose the most elite ones with the best mecha performance."

"Because four minutes is too short. If you are not elite enough, it will be difficult to complete the combat goal. If the mecha is not powerful enough, it will be difficult to escape from the siege of the imperial mecha."

"Combined with the number of orbital airborne mecha kits we have, if only twelve mechas participate in the battle, we can conduct ten such operations. Of course, this is only theoretical, because as long as we use it once, the empire will

Will be on guard."

When he heard this sentence, Chen Xun had already determined in his mind the twelve mechas, or which twelve mecha warriors of the Galaxy team would participate in this combat plan.

The plan that Ji Xinghe asked him to formulate was actually to determine the candidates and the battle plan in many details during the battle.

The first candidate must be Ji Xinghe. The Galaxy Team with Ji Xinghe and the Galaxy Team without Ji Xinghe are completely different concepts.

but……

"I'll lead the team."

As soon as Ji Xinghe opened his mouth, he encountered opposition from almost everyone.

"You don't need to lead the team."

"Old Ji, just wait for news of our victorious return at the base."

"That's right, we are very strong now, okay?"

"How come four ace mecha warriors can't compare to your one ace?"

"Old Ji, do you believe us?"

This question stopped the opposing voices for an instant, because this is an ultimate question, at least for the Galaxy Team.

But Ji Xinghe's answer was without any hesitation.

"I do not believe."

"..."

"Damn, it's so shocking."

"It hurts my self-esteem too much."

"I can't stand it anymore, old man, come out and challenge me."

"That's right, old man, go out and challenge Su Chuanyun. He has always wanted to be disabled, and he also envies the mechanical arm on his left hand. Please grant his wish."

"How about breaking off all his limbs? Su Chuanyun has wanted to be a mechanical transformation warrior for a long time."

"What are you talking about? Shouldn't we all be united in targeting the outside world now? No, should we be united in targeting Lao Ji?"

"Shut up."

Ji Xinghe's expressionless voice made the conference room quiet again.

"I have seen your battle in the base six theater. To be honest, I am very disappointed."

The conference room became quieter, and all the members of Team Xinghe lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at Ji Xinghe's eyes that were scanning the entire room.

Including the four ace mecha warriors Qin Tong, Harris, Blind Man, and Lame Man.

"If it weren't for Han Li, blind man, you would be dead."

"Su Chuanyun, you are the second to die."

"Left hand, you are the third one to die."

"Andre...are you listening?"

Andre, who was conducting actual machine testing, wanted to say that he was not listening, but he could not hide the online prompt to access the communication channel.

"Captain, I'm listening."

"You are the fourth to die."

Ji Xinghe's tone was so stern that everyone in the Xinghe team did not dare to raise their heads because what Ji Xinghe said was the truth.

Those whose names were not called did not fare much better.

If these four people die, how many of them will survive if they continue to fight?

Recalling the scene when they appeared on the battlefield, the imperial mechas attacked them like crazy...

"Twenty-five people, one thousand two hundred and thirty-seven gold stars, the first thousand-star team in the history of the Federation."

"Su He said that Azure Star has started to report on you, so do you really think that you have the strength of the Thousand Stars Team?"

"The meeting is over, twenty-five of you, and Chen Xun, go to the training ground together."
