Chapter 1,456 The Empire also knows how to change like the wind
By this time, even if he was used to seeing killings and deaths constantly, he was now feeling a little depressed. He knew that after all, he would never be able to cultivate a heart of stone without blood or tears. And in war, the most frustrating thing is
The saddest thing is probably hearing that a young man with a great future died on the battlefield in his prime.
This is a fighting hero who defended his family and country and fought bloody battlefields. He should enter the Hall of Heroes to enjoy the incense. Yu Lian thought. Afterwards, he must check his merit report and see if his pension is in place.
I hope that no one will take away the hero's achievements and honor just because the victim was a Lumina. Otherwise, I wouldn't mind tightening military discipline in front of Vice President Hierro.
Immediately afterwards, he heard Tai'a say: "But, little uncle, at that time, if Rorocard had a heraldry machine, he would not have died. I still remember that when he was alive, what he wanted most was
A heraldry machine. The first time he saw Colonel Longbottom's mecha, he stared at it for a long time."
Yu Lian did not answer right away, but instead lowered his face and looked directly into Tai'a's eyes.
Tai'a seemed to feel something, and his eyes were a little dodgey, but he still said: "If the war had not broken out, if there had not been the invasion of the imperial devils, that boy Rorocart should have been a disciple of the Spiritual Research Association by now, right? I am the soul of the spirit."
The seminar has found the first non-human disciple, Grand Master will definitely reward me with something."
"If the war had not broken out, it is very likely that you would not have known him at all. However, gold always shines, and it is indeed very rare for psykers to awaken among the people of Rumina, let alone learn the second level by themselves.
He should have been recruited by the Blue Guard in advance."
"Then, can he get a heraldic machine? What that guy Rorocott wants most is a heraldic machine." Tai'a repeated what he said before.
Yu Lian did not hide anything: "As far as I know, the earth has no plan in this regard. Our occult reserves, our alchemy technology and array seal carving, our mecha design and overall engineering level are all on par with the empire."
There is a huge gap. All good steel must be used on the blade. In addition, it is unrealistic for you to count on the elders of the Red Star Office and the division. The design and development of the heraldic machine is also a systematic project, and it does not rely on one or two people.
The great power of a master can be revealed."
He thought for a while and then said: "One day in the future, maybe we will try to develop in this direction. But it is definitely not now, and it will never be possible within ten years."
"Really..." She lowered her head slightly, with heavy pain in her eyes, and twitched the corners of her mouth, with a mixture of pathos and sarcasm.
However, Yu Lian was not prepared to tolerate this problem of hers, and said seriously: "So, you art students are just hypocritical. Girls should really study science and engineering or even join the army, so as not to become stupid literary women!"
"
Tai'a looked confused and didn't understand why this would involve academic discrimination: "This, does this have anything to do with me studying art? It's obviously the master who said that painting can lead to Taoism, and it can also be the best with swords."
"So, that young man named Rorocart joined the army and went to the front line, is it for the heraldry machine?"
"... He said it was because his father and brother immigrated with the whole family to New China to open a moa breeding farm, and were assigned two public houses in Shirakawa Star. The two best ones were sent to the factory and one of them went to the factory
He became a skilled worker, one became a policeman in Maple City, and both of them got married. He felt that if the empire came, everyone's good life would be gone. He wanted to protect them. He is a psyker, so he must
Protect everyone."
"Then it's over. Who among us is not like this? Who is not willing to die in battle?" Yu Liandao said.
"Human, I didn't say anything. I just wanted to talk to you about a friend who died in the war." She was scolded and could not refute, so she could only mutter in a voice that was not very impressive.
But no matter what, after being scolded by Yu Lian, the remaining doubts and resentments in my heart no longer existed.
Her eyes were bright, and after the sadness and reluctance in her memory dissipated, they turned into firm determination.
"Uncle Master, I've thought about it. I'd better bring the heraldic machine with me. If the battle goes according to plan, I can return to the battlefield right away before the chaos, which will save me a whole process."
Her meaning is very clear. After the Lord of the Void Realm arrives on the battlefield, she will not evacuate according to the original plan. Instead, she will lurk at the scene, choose the right time to attack the battlefield, and give the imperial invading army a shocking surprise attack.
If it were normal times, he would definitely veto the opponent. Proposals like this always have a self-destructive tendency. When this situation develops to the end, great results may be achieved, but often the executor will definitely die in battle.
battlefield.
However, from Tai'a's body, Yu Lian did not feel the suppressed madness, but only the high fighting spirit and fearless courage.
"Wow, you actually developed a domineering spirit." Yu Lian clicked his tongue in surprise, with relief in his eyes.
"After all, my Taoist nickname is Tai'a's. Also, please don't show such an old-fashioned expression. I'll get goosebumps when I look at it. You are one year younger than me. Be more sunny and youthful!
"Little, teacher, uncle." She deliberately emphasized the word "little" a lot.
Tsk, the rules of our spiritual seminar are really outstanding!
Yu Lian added: "If the plan is not executed smoothly and we are unable to keep up, you might become a lone army. No, you will go deep into the enemy's territory alone."
"I am Shura. Just like the Grand Master, I was meant to be besieged. Moreover, Junior Master... No, sir, this is not a lone army going deep, but a flower blooming in the center!" Her smile was majestic.
, and even brought Ling Lie and Su Ran who were fighting against the enemy with thousands of troops.
Yu Lian confirmed this time that if this girl can really step forward, she might really be able to have her own "Sword Heart". At that time, her state of mind will be firm and clear, and it will be difficult for external evil forces to take advantage of her.
.
Then, naturally, practice is like fighting, and fighting is like practicing, and the foundation for entering the realm of saints step by step will be solid. If you want to die in the ring promotion ceremony like in the previous life, of course, the possibility will be greatly reduced.
.
Gee, there was an unexpected surprise? However, Yu Lian really didn't expect that he just solved a security risk in a fortress and came up with some relief for the imperial devils, but it inexplicably turned into Tai'a's question.
, this special meow is obviously the treatment of the protagonist, right?
In other words, for this kind of true genius, it is indeed possible to grow through all possibilities.
However, even so, Yu Lian did not agree immediately, and of course he did not object. He told Tai'a that he would only stand in the position of the commander and consider her actions based on the implementation of the plan and the battle situation on the scene.
"Understand, I am also a soldier now, and I will give priority to obeying military orders in both public and private matters." Tai'a stood up and said: "However, I always believe that this is the most creative tactic."
In the following days, the Saide Fortress temporarily returned to calm. The elite Marines blocked all entrances and exits in Area F. Only a small number of engineering personnel could enter and exit with passes signed by Yu Lian. But other than that, the entire fortress,
The entire galaxy, and even the entire nebula defense line, is in a very rare period of peaceful daily life.
Except for a few units with missions, everyone's job is to train when they should train, rest when they should rest, repair fortresses, repair ships, and reorganize their armaments, as if they have really returned to peacetime.
Yu Lian felt that this was not a good thing.
Everyone's current situation is not relaxing and enjoying daily life, or even taking turns to rest in the rear. Instead, they are in a dangerous state of waiting for the second boot to fall, and their mentality is always in a tense state.
Commander Sylvester and Chief of Staff Mkawa shared the same concerns.
The former fell directly into self-doubt, and always felt that it was wrong to directly abandon all the strongholds "north" of Seder Fortress.
Yu Lian conscientiously comforted the old senior and told him that he was not wrong. If the enemy's strength on the opposite side is equal to his own, abandoning other strongholds would naturally be cowardly and a big mistake. However, if the enemy's army is far larger than
If you don't shrink your troops, you will have to wait to be defeated one by one.
"Yes, yes, the entire corridor and Xingxia are enveloped by the enemy's forward squadron. We even lost our sky survey eye, but this does not mean that we have completely lost the initiative." Yu Liandao.
"Yes, yes, no matter what, the enemy cannot cross the fortress." General Sylvester nodded.
What they were discussing was the current Nebula battle situation. More than seventy hours had passed since the last time the Sky Survey Eye talked about the movements of the Empire's forward fleet.
And just twenty-four hours ago, the Community reconnaissance fleet at the front of the corridor did indeed meet the enemy's forward fleet in the Stranger System at the entrance of the corridor.
After an encounter, the community's outpost fleet was defeated. Fortunately, the opponent did not pursue it immediately.
It only takes a week for a high-speed cruiser to depart from the Said system and reach the Stranger system at the entrance to the Lucknar Corridor and the Elisa system at the entrance to the I Earls Gap. This means that the opponent can attack the city at any time.
Already.
But the problem is that the imperial fleet did not continue to move forward, but spread out and completely blocked all channels at the entrance of the corridor.
Immediately afterwards, the two surveying eyes that were moving freely "north" of the nebula were finally discovered by the imperial fleet. They were chased and cornered by imperial fighter planes in the Mok system and forced to a dead end, and were immediately shot down.
Facts have proven that the Sky Survey Eye's survivability and concealment capabilities are the highest in the galaxy and almost represent the technological pinnacle of the Alliance, but this does not mean that the Empire has no countermeasures.
Fortunately, there are still 6 intact Sky Survey Eyes in the hands of the frontline headquarters.
Unfortunately, it was no longer possible for them to break through the entrance to the corridor, and they lost track of the movements of the enemy's main fleet on the other side of the nebula.
To put it in game terms, it means that the Empire has opened up the sky on the opposite side. The oppressive feeling of dark clouds over the city immediately came. It is conceivable that as time goes by, the mental pressure endured by the community defenders will
Getting bigger and bigger.
Yu Lian had to admit that based on this alone, these imperial forward fleets were much more sophisticated than the original "Imperial Alliance Alliance Forces".
"We must expand the fleet's protection and patrol range. Otherwise, if we become completely blind and deaf, the morale of the soldiers will be hit and we will lose the initiative." Chief of Staff Mkawa proposed to Yu Lian.
suggestion.
Chief of Staff Mkawa, who is a kind of uncle butler, does not have the slightest tendency towards adventurism or radicalism, but he is still very familiar with orthodox military tactics. Of course, he is very clear about the principle of "defending the city must defend the field".
You know, even Senior Sylvester, who is only half a soldier and half a bureaucrat, led a fleet to attack the "Imperial Alliance Alliance" on the opposite side.
"However, the other party blocked the entrance to the corridor, but then let go of our patrol fleet. Didn't they want us to take the initiative?" Lieutenant General Sylvester directly expressed his pessimism: "This is a trap, we won't
You should take risks.”
Well, after all, the old senior is a "moon man" who has received strict military education, and his mind has always been very clear.
Luo Zeshi said: "Yes, so we mobilized all available battlecruisers and high-speed cruisers on the front line to directly attack the Stranger System at the entrance of the corridor."
Isn't this a bit too extreme? Lieutenant General Sylvester and Chief of Staff Mkawa stared at Rozes who made such a remonstrance, as if they were looking at a madman. There is no other way to be calm.
After all, the young men are also young men, and their brain circuits are naturally different from those of the veterans.
No, Yu Lian agrees with Luo Zeshi. This is not an extreme choice, but a necessary choice.
If you don't attack and let the empire play whatever dark clouds you want to do, you will easily fall into despair. However, the possibility of the imperial fleet setting up an ambush at the entrance of the corridor is very high. If you attack, wouldn't it play into the opponent's plan?
This is the tragedy of insufficient troops! In fact, as long as they press forward openly, you will have fewer and fewer choices.
In this case, let's defeat the possible ambush head on. This is Luo Zeshi's opinion.
"What's the status of the dreadnought?" Yu Lian asked.
Rozeshi immediately replied: "The preparations for the Fuxi and Nuwa have been completed. There are four armor plates on the port side and stern of the Amon that have not been replaced, which will pose operational risks. As for the Zeus, it will take at least two months.
."
This God-class Dreadnought, which was the most seriously injured in the Battle of Lucknar Corridor, is not even in Said Fortress, but in Xinshuntian in the rear. It is undergoing comprehensive repairs. It is said that some ship materials even have to be ordered from the alliance.
, maybe I really have to stay in bed for more than half a year.
In fact, after the Battle of the Lucknar Corridor and the "Ten Swings and Ten Jue" battles, almost all the battleships were injured, and it was just a matter of severity. At present, the fleet can immediately execute high-intensity
There were only ten battlecruisers left for the decisive battle. In comparison, the Fuxi, which had always been fighting at the forefront, was actually the least injured.
Yu Lian nodded, and then decided to be more radical: "Then, let all three main ships attack! In addition, let all the battlecruisers and aircraft carriers assemble and attack together!"
He then explained to the veteran generals: "It is said that if you keep cutting off, you will suffer chaos. To deal with guys like the Empire, you either don't do it or you have to do it absolutely!"
Chief of Staff Mkawa sighed and said with a wry smile: "Actually, I didn't want to object. I'm not surprised that you would make such a decision. Moreover, even if I want to dissuade you now, you can't
You won’t listen, will you?”
"Actually, you can still give me some advice. Now, I don't really want to move."
Facts have proved that Yu Lian's choice was correct. When the main force of Yu Lian's fleet was used up and overwhelmed with overwhelming force, it turned out that the empire had deployed a considerable number of fleets in the four star systems surrounding the Stranger system.
The number of battle cruisers alone exceeds ten.
They were like a pack of hungry but patient wolves, crawling, peeping, sneaking, wandering, and might start hunting at any time.
If our side had really only dispatched a small fleet with battle cruisers as its core, even the most optimistic estimate would have definitely resulted in a bad battle.
We all know that a side with an absolute physical advantage likes nothing more than bad fights and silly fights.
However, no matter how smart and cunning the wolves are, they cannot hunt the lions who are already prepared to risk their lives. After the Empire's outpost fleet encountered the rest of the fleet in the Stranger System, they turned around and fled without hesitation.
At this moment, the moral integrity of the glorious Imperial Royal Fleet may not even be higher than that of the Bakvi Birdmen.
However, although the imperial fleet's choice to escape seemed very decisive, it was still bitten by the thunder strike ship with light wings and roaring in charge, knocking out one cruiser and three destroyers at the rear of the fleet.
In addition, two battle cruisers were on fire and were seriously injured. Although they barely escaped, they felt it was impossible to return to the battlefield for at least two or three months.
This time, it was not Anne Romanova who made the first contribution, but Lieutenant Mars Cook who piloted Rogue 13. The black torpedo ship he piloted used torpedoes to cut off an Aurora-class cruiser, creating the greatest result.
Probably because Lieutenant Cook's lightning strike ship is painted black and has the number 13, plus his status as the obstacle racing champion, he now has the nickname "Champion of Death", which means "bringing to the enemy"
"Champion of the Omen of Death" shows his domineering attitude.
This star captain of the Volunteer Army in another timeline is also heading towards greatness.
However, even so, the imperial fleets from other star systems did not come to support, but quickly evacuated, displaying the virtue of "it is better to be brave than to flee" and "it is difficult for friendly forces to turn in like the wind".
