Chapter 1766 You expand the war, and I end the war
The good news is that the joint operation of the Circassians turned out to be more energetic than expected. The five military commanders completed an online "alliance" and swore an oath of blood across light years, saying that they must recapture Katun and restore the Circassian people.
Glory, it is our duty to do so.
If all their troops could be mobilized, they would be equivalent to nearly half of the total military strength of the Cirke Kingdom, which should not be underestimated.
The bad news is that Brunhild, King of Suliu, has once again received a group of reinforcements over Guye City.
The fleet under her command now has just over 150 ships. The number of ships is not large, but the quality is very good. In addition to the Titan ship Dawn Angel, there are also Dreadnought 2, 8 battle cruisers, and 8 aircraft carriers. The remaining
They are all heavy cruisers and light cruisers.
In short, this eliminates all small battleships that lack endurance.
In addition, all of them are cutting-edge warships that have been in service for less than ten years.
If the Galactic Empire is a money-making player, then this lady who chooses the emperor is definitely a resource person.
In addition, Barbarossa, who has been serving as a companion ship for the Angel of Dawn, is still in Catun. The owner of Barbarossa, Admiral Giaphire Lamut, Countess of Helanriel, is now in a safe place.
He acted like a governor of the Circassian occupying forces.
If nothing unexpected happens, she will soon be besieged by the Cherkian "Combined Warlord Fleet".
However, Queen Brunhilt seemed completely indifferent to her best friend's situation.
The ships and personnel under her are all perfectly equipped, but in terms of sheer scale, they are still far from a large army. Compared to the mighty fleet here in Sede, they are at most the size of an outpost fleet.
.
But even so, Brynhild's fleet was like a roar of gongs and drums, with red flags waving in the sky. Before setting off, King Suliuka even held a press conference with great interest and invited locals from Night City.
Journalists and allied media.
This is still quite new.
You must know that the royal family and nobles of the empire still pay great attention to propriety and mystery, and such relatively "equal exchanges" rarely occur.
Hundreds of years ago, the "Immortal Dragon" Emperor Yiwen Ya spoke to the citizens of the country in front of the television, and even explained his country's governance strategies live. Now it is still regarded as a strategic feat that created the world.
Woolen cloth.
However, everyone has to admit that with the average appearance and demeanor of the Chenxi royal family, not being on camera is simply a waste of resources in the universe. Especially someone like Brynhildr who can also hold the title of "family beauty" in the royal family.
people.
In front of the camera, she has a tall and slender figure, and her appearance is unparalleled in beauty, full of divine sculptural beauty. As long as she stands in the frame, she must be the center of everyone.
She was dressed in military uniform and was about to board the Angel of Dawn, which was returning to the orbit of the shuttle boat. Behind her was the huge helipad on the outskirts of Guye City.
On the background board behind her, the stormtroopers of the Empire lined up neatly and headed towards the jungle of buildings in Lone Night City.
At the same time, there were also a large number of human soldiers boarding the ship. Their team was neat, but they always felt that they were lacking a bit of energy. They were all wearing gray uniforms, and they were members of the Community Olympus Sector Guard Force.
uniform.
Yes, these people are the security forces left behind by the community, but they didn't even have time to get the markings on their uniforms.
"They will be reorganized at the new station and trained by new instructors. Soon, we will gain a loyal and brave stormtroopers. This is the glory of a community with a shared future for mankind." Brunhildt replied.
"Long live the Galactic Empire!" "Long live Her Royal Highness the Queen!"
The reporters from New Asia cheered one after another. Of course their voices were not uniform, but their attitudes were still very positive. There was even a bit of fanaticism. It seemed that after shouting these slogans, they really became 100% emperor.
.
Since this is a live broadcast for the entire universe, Yu Lian can of course see it. Now he can only think that this arrogant big cat is really good at playing.
"As for me, I am about to march to the earth." She said to the camera, almost as if she was preaching objective truth.
A reporter from the alliance bluntly accused: "Your Highness, you are expanding the war."
"No one has more experience in expanding war than your country." Brünnhilt smiled.
This is talking about the recent civil war in the Alliance. Although the newly appointed Commander-in-Chief Feanor Belenkeist has always said that it was a small border rebellion, it is true that multiple alliance countries are telling you privately that they want to secede.
Alliance. There is even a leader of a small border country who denounced the human central government of Nephi as an evil slave-owning capitalist. They must resist the tyranny of the Thirteen Families. They want to march into Nephi and give the entire universe true equality and prosperity, etc.
.
To be honest, if you just say that you want to break away from the alliance system, it is really just a normal border conflict. In the history of the alliance, the participating countries have always been gaining weight and losing weight, but as long as they directly control the star regions and
The core franchise countries are still there, so the basic base will not be hurt at all.
However, saying that they are marching towards Nephi is another matter. Such extraordinary separatists will definitely hit hard!
It is said that Congress passed the Counterinsurgency Act with unprecedented efficiency, and the Union army overwhelmed it in such a mighty manner. At this time, everyone seemed to have forgotten that the trigger for this series of troubles was nothing more than a small worker incident.
It was just a parade and an assassination incident that had no beginning and no end.
The alliance reporters never expected that members of the imperial royal family, who had almost no experience in handling media, could retort, and were stunned for a moment.
"And I am ending the war." Brunhildt continued to the camera.
Her smile was bright and dignified, but the hint of domineering revealed in her morning-colored eyes seemed to be slowly solidifying.
Yu Lian, who was watching the live broadcast on the Fuxi, always felt that Brunhildt's words were spoken to him from thousands of light years away. Of course, in order to avoid excessive self-consciousness, he decided to turn off the TV signal first
Good.
In short, what is certain is that the fleet led by King Suliuka is leaving New Atlantis in a high-profile manner and is marching towards the New Baghdad Galaxy, which to put it bluntly must be the direction of the native Earth.
…The whole galaxy knows it, so there’s no reason why the Earth doesn’t know it, right?
Yu Lian pressed his temples and admitted that he was a little bit anxious. He was now more worried about the Earth's reaction than the actions of the imperial pursuers behind him.
So, if something terrible happens to the earth again, how should you respond?
Yu Lian sat quietly in the office for ten minutes, consumed a lollipop and three old knives, looked at the latest situation map sent by the Sky Survey Eye, and probably got some ideas.
However, just when he was about to go to the Chief of Staff and the others to discuss it, he received another communication request from the direction of Nantianmen, and this time, it even reached an encrypted communication directly to Yu Lian's office.
The Bridge Communications Management Office did not dare to neglect and took over immediately.
Needless to say, it was Marshal Bonaparte himself who came. He is still the commander of the entire outer ring theater, and is Yu Lian's theoretical immediate boss.
Yu Lian clicked the confirmation button and made a meticulous salute.
Marshal Bonaparte didn't even exchange pleasantries and went straight to the point: "Earth has asked me to allocate part of the fleet to New Baghdad to help Marshal Ferragut strengthen the defense there."
Yu Lian suddenly felt that his blood pressure had risen. However, now was not the time to be incompetent and furious. In this position, he had actually lost the qualification to be incompetent and furious.
"What's your plan?" Yu Lian asked.
"I have no more troops to send." Marshal Bonaparte sighed: "I have already expressed my opinion to the National Defense Committee. I think those bureaucrats, as long as they can pass the technical secondary school entrance examination, they must be
You can understand what I say."
"What's the truth?"
"The average level of bureaucrats in the National Defense Commission may not be as good as my younger son who has not graduated from elementary school."
One thing to say is that the Marshal, who has a granite temperament, is really not very good at joking.
"What did Marshal Paris say?" Yu Lian asked.
"The Military Command Headquarters is mediating with the Presidential Palace. The old officer is also an old sailor who climbed out of a frontline battleship. Of course he knows our difficulties. Here at Nantianmen, if a battlecruiser is transferred, the situation may be unbalanced.
." The marshal described the rather harsh facts with an expressionless face.
This was actually a disguised answer to the situation at Nantianmen.
Of course, as the marshal of the community, he also knows the general side after all:
"However, there are no more troops to defend the earth. This is also a real objective problem. The remaining troops in the hands of Marshal Ferragut are no longer able to bear a fight. And King Su's fleet can arrive in only five or six weeks at most.
Earth."
If it were her, it might not take more than a month. A wry smile flashed across Yu Lian's face: "I won't even be able to reach Earth in this little time."
"You are right, Yu Lian. When the National Defense Committee vetoed your proposal and did not capture Cerro first, we were completely passive. I should have supported your opinion more firmly. Who would have thought that,
How come the majestic Circassian Kingdom, which is also a major military power with a long history, surrendered so quickly? After the fall of Katun and Chero and the surrender of the Circassian Kingdom, we must have lost."
"The Circassians haven't surrendered yet." Yu Lian could only try his best to comfort him.
Marshal Bonaparte snorted disdainfully: "Are you talking about those Circassian warlords? Haha... I served as the chief military attaché in the Circassian embassy, ​​and no one knows the Circassians better than me.
The nature of exaggeration is exaggerated. More importantly, the education I received since childhood told me not to place my hopes on others."
"If the Lords of the Earth had had such an awakening, the situation would not have deteriorated in just one week."
"You don't have to flatter me, General Prophet, it will make me feel that I am being irritated by you." Marshal Bonaparte said angrily: "As for the Gongun princes on the earth, they did make some decision-making mistakes.
.However, as a wartime government, at least so far, everything it has done has been conscientious. So..."
At this point, he glanced at Yu Lian meaningfully: "You shouldn't be so eager when you are so young."
Yu Lian averted his gaze: "Our topic has gotten a little off topic. So, what's your decision?"
"I have said that I will try my best to convey my difficulties to the National Defense Committee."
"I understand. So, what is your decision?"
Marshal Bonaparte stopped talking. He looked deeply at Yu Lian, a trace of struggle seemed to flash across his face, but after a brief hesitation, he still said clearly: "I don't know."
"...Your attitude is so frank that I am ashamed of myself!"
"I am self-aware, but not you, and a talented military strategist like Yang who is favored by the God of War. Of course, there is nothing we can do when encountering such a desperate situation." He spread his hands helplessly: "Lieutenant General Yu Lian, your fleet still needs more time.
How long does it take to arrive at Nantianmen?”
"At least, three weeks."
Marshal Bonaparte shook his head and smiled: "Don't lie to me. When you led the remaining fleet to Nantianmen to rescue the far bank, it also took three weeks to reach the battlefield. But at that time, the entire army was united, and the battleships and personnel
They are all in perfect condition. And now, you have just retreated from the battlefield, exhausted and scarred, with the enemy pursuing you behind you."
Yu Lian admitted that what the other party said was reasonable, and could only smile silently.
Marshal Bonaparte said again: "Don't worry. No matter what, I still hold the most powerful strategic decisive force of the community in my hands. Even if some troops are slightly diverted, Nantianmen can barely maintain its tactical significance.
It’s balanced.”
"...You said three minutes ago that you couldn't mobilize a single soldier."
Marshal Bonaparte burst into laughter: "Hahaha, General Yu, professional soldiers like us say one thing to our own people, but of course we have another thing to say to bureaucrats and parliamentarians in civilian clothes.
Already."
He retracted his smile and solemnly ordered with a serious attitude: "Then, your task is to preserve the fleet in your hands as much as possible. There is no need to force the reinforcements from Nantianmen. As for the major strongholds in the far coast sector,
Just let nature take its course."
Marshal Bonaparte's attitude today was very roundabout, and he had already done so many times, which really made him feel a little bit depressed.
You know, only five days ago, he was still asking himself to rush to Nantianmen to join the army in a roundabout way.
Yu Lian stared at Marshal Bonaparte. He was really curious about what gave this traditional professional soldier such a big change.
"Do you know what this means? Your Excellency."
"People are fleets, people are fortresses, and people are planets. When people are gone, everything is gone. Young man, what is that look in your eyes? I can also read military books at night. Did I suddenly have an epiphany?"
"... I understand." Yu Lian finally decided to accept the order. When he raised his hands to salute, he said: "Your Excellency, please do not forget the order you issued today. The practice of preserving vitality is important to all
Everyone is effective. The same goes for Commander Yang over there in the New World."
Marshal Bonaparte was slightly startled, a wry smile flashed across his face, and he whispered: "How can it be so simple? If military matters can be solved militaryly, the job of a professional soldier will be easier. What's more,
, even from a military perspective, this is beyond my capabilities."
He suppressed his wry smile and answered sternly: "I will seriously consider it. Lieutenant General Yu Lian, I am the commander-in-chief of the outer ring theater and the marshal of the community. I know it well!"
"Understood, I'm sorry to be disgraced."
"You should take care of yourself first. The Earth side will definitely try to control the strength of your troops. I will try my best to help you deal with it. However, the National Defense Commission and even the Presidential Office should bypass me first.
I gave you the order directly."
"It's like they will call the Cook. I know it well," Yu Liandao said.
The National Defense Committee has not yet called him or the captain of his own battleship, which has already made Yu Lian impressed by their determination.
"I have a ready-made reason. It's not perfect, but it's enough." Yu Lian looked at the cruise ship outside the porthole.
Although Marshal Bonaparte was a little curious, he was already past the age of gossip after all. He just nodded understandingly: "Then, see you after victory... Hey, Lieutenant General Yu Lian, will we usher in the final victory?"
Before Yu Lian wanted to answer, he laughed at himself: "Oh, this can't be a question in the first place. If Eleanor hears it, she will laugh at me unscrupulously."
She might even take action. Yu Lian thought.
After turning off the communication, Yu Lian stood up, cast his gaze through the porthole, and landed on the warship next door closest to him.
That was the Dragon Boat Parade, which always followed closely beside the dreadnought, just like the flagship's loyal escort carrier.
In fact, she has indeed achieved this effect so far.
In the past two days, he and Feifei have already taken off from the Pilgrimage on a dragon once. After all, for them, riding a dragon for a ride is a rare way to relax and have a rest. On the one hand, the posture of riding a dragon across the starry sky is indeed
Can boost morale.
The officers and soldiers in the fleet are already experienced elites, but now that they have lost their main base, they will inevitably feel quite insecure. And now, I may be their greatest source of security.
Perhaps, it’s also because the recent voyage has been smooth sailing?
Just as this thought flashed through Yu Lian's mind, Chief of Staff Mkawa, who was staying on the bridge, sent a message: "Sir, Survey Eye No. 7 has reported that the Imperial pursuit fleet has arrived in the Earl I-12 system.
Number of ships: 272."
If the quality of the ships is put aside, the size of this force is already equivalent to the fleet currently controlled by Brunhilt.
Chapter completed!
