Luo Zeshi said seriously with a straight face: "We can still clearly distinguish the difference between passive and active. Moreover, considering your past experience, this statement really lacks the minimum persuasiveness. There are many strong generals in this world who lead the way.
After all, their achievements are here, and I am not qualified to make irresponsible remarks on them."
Yu Lian directly gave the opponent two thumbs up and smiled brightly: "Very good, classmate Luo Zeshi, you have learned how to build a monument to the commander and whitewash the peace! Your professional ability as an adjutant has always impressed me.
No doubt. But now, even the abilities of close ministers have been illuminated. Isn’t this a great growth?"
Luo Zeshi decided to really take the other party's words as a compliment, and continued: "It's just that the commander insists that the combined fleet of the Blood Gate Galaxy is not a fool after all, and will change its attitude as the environment changes. They may not
Know what you will do, but be sure of what you will do. In the meantime, they cannot do nothing."
"You are right, I already have this kind of deterrence." Yu Lian held his head high, chest on his hips, decided to feel proud for a few seconds, and then shrugged: "I am even sure that the Imperial Army will be ready to attack at any time.
Let’s keep some surprises.”
"Don't you understand everything?"
"I understand, but who said I'm going to do this? The forces of both sides have been deployed, and they are almost playing their cards clearly. Our military strength and strategic situation are at a disadvantage. Under such circumstances, if we have to follow the plan step by step, it will be
Hanged."
"But, isn't this what the empire wants to see?" Luo Zeshi said.
Yu Lian did not answer directly, but just glanced at everyone: "The combat plan has been determined. We should act according to the original plan and act in 12 hours! Oh, there are only 10 hours left now."
At the same time, in the Blood Gate Fortress of the Kaitai Kingdom.
Viscount Shameen once again found his boss: "We have just received news that the Republic of Mazawi and the Kingdom of Redola have suspended the supply contracts of Gaofeng porcelain and silicon-based interposers with the Community.
"
As Count Heronqi said himself, he was a relatively pure warrior and psyker who didn't know much about military exploits on the technological side, and he suddenly showed a confused expression.
"This means that the community will lack the necessary capacitor materials to produce large lance cannons and ion cannons."
The knight commander immediately understood: "This is a good signal, isn't it?"
"Yes, the Kingdom of Ledola and the Republic of Mazawi have been bearing the diplomatic pressure of the empire, but if the alliance is willing to fully support it, they do not have to give up such a lucrative contract. This can even be regarded as some kind of statement from the alliance." Although.
A piece of good news was brought out, but Shameen's expression became more serious:
"The external environment of the people on Earth is deteriorating faster than they and we imagine. They urgently need a victory. Your Excellency, I once thought that the possibility of the outer ring fleet carrying out military adventures was only half. Now it must be on September 9.
It’s more than enough.”
Count Heronqi nodded slightly: "Indeed, although the empire lost six Flame Dragons and four Phoenixes in the High Sea Channel, such losses have been offset by the glorious triumph of the Ring of Miracles. Now, the entire galaxy has
You know, the community has lost half of its fleet and two-thirds of its capital ships, its forces are stretched thin, and an atmosphere of defeatism is spreading."
Of course, these words are not without purpose. On Earth, there are many old and young people who miss the era of imperial rule, and they still retain a great say in the highest power field. Even when the war was just declared, many people were already clamoring for negotiations.
, even if you make concessions, you must restore relations with the empire or something.
And as the results of the Ring of Miracles battle reached the Earth, the noise became even louder. It is said that people on the Earth have already started marching, saying they were asking the warmonger President Nishita to step down, and they also vowed:
The reason why the Empire is unfriendly to the Alliance is because of the President's massive military expansion plan when he was Chairman of the General Assembly.
Whether these people's logic is valid or not is irrelevant, but it is indeed very influential.
And all of this, of course, has already been sent to the headquarters and major front lines by the empire's intelligence department.
Viscount Shameen said: "With this kind of defeatist sentiment spreading, even if the alliance wants to come to support, they will be very doubtful, right?"
Count Heronqi said: "It is impossible for the alliance to personally provide support. It can only provide assistance in arms, materials and intelligence. This is the judgment made by the Privy Council and the Grand Marshal's Office."
"Even if it's just material and intelligence resources, the Alliance has shown that it can't resist the enemy. The actions of the Kingdom of Ledola and the Republic of Mazawi have proven this. This will be a huge blow to the community resistance. In this case, even if
The Dragon of Dawn has no choice." Viscount Shameen pondered for a moment: "Moreover, I fought with him at the God of War Festival. He is very brave and good at taking risks."
"...Well, but judging from his preparations for dealing with the divine food and the battle to suppress the snakes, he first recruited various pirates from the Cross Nebula, collected intelligence, and gathered troops. It seems more like a plan-and-decides type.
." Count Heronqi said.
"A person who plans before deciding will not charge a team of more than thirty people single-handedly. You must know that in terms of hard power, there were at least three people who were not inferior to him at that time. From any point of view, he had no chance of victory.
Chance."
Count Heronqi immediately thought of the battle in the river valley that made Yu Lian famous at the God of War Festival, and felt that what the other party said was somewhat reasonable. But, having said that, are you kidding yourself?
"General Yu will definitely make the first move. As long as we can defeat our fleet at the Blood Gate, at least one side of the crisis can be relieved. Even if the main force of the empire arrives, there will not be a huge gap in troops. At the same time,
It can give the resistance factions in the community a shot in the arm, and maybe even make the alliance change its attitude." Shameen said.
Count Heronqi said: "And if we can thwart his adventure or even kill him, maybe the Blue Star Community will really lose all will to resist and finally surrender without a fight. Is that so?"
Viscount Shameen nodded sincerely: "Your Excellency, Knight Commander, we need to start preparations now."
"Then, according to your plan, let our arsenal ship be equipped with gravity field bombs?"
This is a new weapon developed by the empire. It can create a controllable gravitational field within a certain range, which lasts for an extremely long time. It can effectively neutralize the enemy ship's shield, pull the enemy ship's cruising power and maneuverability, and interfere with the gravitational waves.
Communication wavelength.
If a large warship is concentrated by such a weapon, it can even have an effect similar to "stiffening", and it will become a target of concentrated fire or even gang jumping on the spot.
In addition, how can the gravitational field be expanded to a certain scale, and combined with the expansion of the psychic array, it can even form a space channel for machines and psychics to travel through.
During the Battle of the Ring of Miracles, every time Brunhild's fleet opened a space channel, it first filled it with hundreds of self-destructing robots, and then the Astral Knights led the charge of combat robots to break into the Earthlings' capital ship.
The Astral Knights do not expect to completely seize the battleship. As long as they can paralyze part of the ship's functions, they will immediately escape in the Star Dragon and find another target.
The battered Earth warships that remained behind were just the prey of the Imperial warships that came after them.
This almost random "leapfrog", combined with the Titan ship and the high-speed fearless storm-like surprise attack, was able to defeat the main force of the expedition fleet within 1 hour and 22 minutes.
Of course, Count Heronqi and Viscount Shameen did not expect to be able to produce the effect of the Miracle Ring, but as long as they could give the Earthlings' incoming fleet a big surprise, they would have accomplished their mission.
"So, we should stick to the original plan, which is to have our arsenal ships carry gravitational field warheads, and then use frigates to carry armored grenadiers for landing?"
Viscount Shameen shook his head slightly: "I hope to use the Cathay people's corona class to implement this plan."
The count twitched his eyebrows slightly and leaned back on his chair: "Tell me about it."
"I've thought about it again. If the people on earth really want to make a big military gamble, those who are responsible for the main attack must be those of the main god class. The arsenal ship is too fragile and the protective ship is too slow. Even in a chaotic battle, it is impossible to force the main god class
Nearby. However, the Corona is a dreadnought produced by the Empire. In terms of protection alone, it is even better than the Flame Dragon. It is possible."
"Although the protection is better than that of Yanlong, the armor and firepower are far behind." The count said.
"That's why we need to fight!"
The knight commander fell into deep thought. As a very professional astral knight, but not a very professional officer, it was indeed difficult for him to evaluate the feasibility of this plan, but he just felt that it was very risky.
"Hahaha, Your Excellency, in the final analysis, this is an extreme tactic that I thought up out of my head. I never considered using it on a regular basis. However, as we just analyzed, General Yu Lian will only use it when he has the trump card.
We will take risks. If the community deploys all its forces to fight at this time, there must be an operation beyond our imagination. The battlefield conditions are also very likely to become extreme. At that time, maybe we will be given the opportunity to take risks."
"Ymir, you have been thinking about this plan for a long time, right?" Count Heronqi frowned and said: "You are still young, and the future of the Knights is obviously yours, but I am really worried about your current spirit.
What about the structure?”
"Sir, if I say that I am thinking about this plan, it is really just to get rid of a serious problem for the empire, and there is no personal grudge, do you believe it?"
"The biggest taboo of psychics is to lie to themselves. What does it matter whether I believe it or not?"
"Well, let's just call it a little personal grudge." Viscount Shameen smiled: "But, to be fair, if we can keep him here, even if the Cathay people's corona sinks, even if it's
It was worth it if most of the knights in the advisory group died in the battle."
"...Although it doesn't sound good to me, what you said really makes sense."
"But I am no match for him. Not during the God of War Festival, and even less so now." Viscount Shameen's words were full of frustration.
For a genius who has been regarded as a star of hope since childhood and has always had everything going smoothly, perhaps the biggest blow is to meet another genius who can completely crush him in all aspects.
Count Heronqi looked at himself, a junior in the Knights, and suddenly realized that if he really wanted to grow to the point that everyone expected, he would need to overcome this inner demon.
"As for the Cathay people, I'll go and convince them myself. Charon Mane just owed me a favor, and he should give me the necessary reward. In addition, when necessary, I will accompany you."
"Your Mightiness?"
"This is war, not an honorary duel of psychics. There is no honor in war, and it would be hypocritical to talk about morality and justice."
