Of course, what was attacked was not the main force of the Suppression General, but an exploration force of less than 200 people. It was mainly composed of the New Seville garrison. The quality of the personnel and the level of equipment were naturally very typical.
The level of the security force.
However, no matter how the so-called ordinary police force is, it is a combat force of more than 200 people with the cooperation of multi-terrain walking vehicles, firepower platforms, and armored airships. Now it was actually beaten by wild beasts and fled, and the news spread.
It can really make military observers and media throughout the galaxy laugh for a whole year.
So, when the information from the captain leading the team was sent to Brigadier General Luben, he turned the table over on the spot while he was having lunch. Fine red wine, fish and meat sent from New Seville.
A large table of lobsters, barbecued steaks, fresh fruits, vegetables and breads was smashed to the ground, making the orderly next to him twitch his eyes.
The orderly, who is not yet twenty years old this year, feels that a man as big as the General may not be as sensible as his 3-year-old nephew. That kid is a loser, but at least he won't waste food.
The orderly squatted down silently and began to clean up the messy ground. He was not afraid at all. If this was the first time that Brigadier General Luben had been so angry, he might have shuddered, but during this time, the general always kept
In this way, the little orderly has naturally become accustomed to it.
Brigadier General Lu Ben has always set himself up as a Confucian general with graceful demeanor and wisdom. Unfortunately, there were too many falsehoods that made him angry during this period. It took him decades to establish a person.
If it is assumed, it will naturally be unsustainable.
During this period, he was indeed in trouble.
The transport team was attacked by Lumina guerrillas; the reconnaissance team was besieged. People were sent to contact the major Lumina tribes and asked them to send people to assist in the battle. However, in the past two weeks, only one-third of the original plan was achieved.
The Suppression Headquarters located outside the forest was harassed by herds of animals from time to time, and sentries often suffered casualties.
But this failure made him particularly angry.
"Tell them to withdraw immediately! Yes, let Captain Suk and Captain Beta take their people to respond! In addition, all units have canceled their rest and have all entered a state of preparation for war! No automatic attacks are allowed, and the existing positions must be maintained!" Although
I feel angry, but I still have to make follow-up arrangements, so I feel even more angry. This is the commander's self-cultivation.
Colonel Sahe, who was sitting at the same table with him, wanted to laugh, but he still held back. In this situation, everyone should still cooperate sincerely, and said: "At least we have determined that the various large beasts in the jungle are indeed
Normal. It already has a certain organization and is extremely aggressive and aggressive. The strategic goal has been achieved, so this is not considered a failure."
That's right! We use our security forces to explore roads and die, while you Marines stay aside and watch the show, then harvest the heads and military honors, right? Brigadier General Luben glanced at the other party, and really wanted to say something.
, but I really know that now is not the time to fall out, so I can only nod with a sullen face: "... I just hope that the special commissioner can accept our statement. Is he still in Maple City now?"
The Marine Corps colonel nodded, showing a strange expression.
"That damn place is as depressed as a tomb now. Why is that?"
Brigadier General Lu Ben also found it really difficult to understand.
Indeed, Yu Lian's operation was really confusing.
If it's because you don't want to stay in the military camp with a group of smelly soldiers, this is understandable. After all, a considerable number of "elite bureaucrats" have this behavior, not to mention that the Moon Man is known as the "elite group"
"Elite Group".
But in this case, he could just stay in New Seville! Wouldn’t it be nice to eat seafood every day and see the smell of the sea? In order to make Mr. Special Commissioner happy, Brigadier General Luben has gone to great lengths, driver, bodyguard, assistant
All the tour guides were provided! Even the flower in the garrison headquarters that he hadn't had time to nibble on was used. It was a waste of money.
When Yu Lian suddenly threw away the people arranged by Brigadier General Lu Ben and went to Rumina alone, he really scared the latter.
However, the special commissioner went directly to Hongfeng Factory. Not only did the Suppression Headquarters show up, he didn't even make a phone call.
"This is probably to give us some steps to get down. You also know that some of our combat experiences with the Lumina rebels in the past few years do not actually stand up to scrutiny."
"Really, are these mantises still as bad as before?"
"That's right! You should be our food and clothing parents honestly. Isn't it good to have food, rice, money and food? Why do you want to be tied up with the Wanling Sect?"
"Those guys from the Wanling Sect are even more disgusting! Wouldn't it be better to just sell the lucky rabbit's feet and give some charity to the lonely big shot's wife? It's too much trouble to cause so many things! Not at all!
Consider the hard work of our civil servants!”
After Brigadier General Luben and Colonel Sacher complained for a while, they suddenly felt that life was too difficult, and inexplicably they felt a tacit understanding of each other.
As for the little orderly who was lying on the ground collecting garbage, he felt that if he continued to listen, he might have to prepare for his funeral in advance. He quickly stood up, hugged the trash can and said, "I, I will prepare a dinner for the officers.
You guys will..."
The little orderly ran away, and the two officers didn't say anything. Since they dared to say these things in front of their faces, they naturally weren't worried about this guy leaking the secret.
To put it bluntly, the Rumina rebels are the lifeblood of the Guard and Marines, and this has long been the consensus of the entire army.
"Captain Yu Lian said he was here to rectify the Red Maple Factory. Is it true?" Brigadier General Lu Ben began to think deeply.
"The Red Maple Factory is a military industry, right?" Colonel Sahe has only been in Lumina for a few years and doesn't know much about this enterprise that has witnessed decades of Lumina's history.
"It seems that the system has been changed, and the management rights have been handed over to private individuals. Of course, the government and the military have supervision... Hey, what does this have to do with us? It's all the fault of the big shots on the other side of the earth!" Lu Ben
The brigadier general rolled his eyes, stared at Sahe, and said in a strange tone: "Anyway, Captain Yu Lian is also a special commissioner. Whether it is the Red Maple Factory or our army, they are all within his supervisory authority.
.If one day he comes to our place on a whim and asks how our battle is going and what our results are... are we going to tell him that we were beaten by a herd of beasts and fled?"
Brigadier General Luben spoke as if he were telling a ghost story, but to the colonel it sounded almost like a ghost story.
"If he is not satisfied, a flying letter will be sent to Earth telling us about our future... ah no, we may have to retire early now."
"Early retirement" is a miserable life. Without special promotions or medals, you can't hold your head high even when attending a veteran's fraternity, and it will be very difficult to find a job and re-employ.
What, do you think major companies don’t look at resumes when hiring retired politicians and retired military officers?
Colonel Sacher shook his head vigorously and said that he would never retire early.
"So, sir, what do you think?"
"Your marines have not suffered any damage during this period, and they are recharged and ready for the day. They must be in their best condition? Why don't we give up the expedition through the Thuro Forest?
For the encirclement plan, try to use a high-altitude sudden landing to land directly into the ancient city of Sero and behead the enemy! How about that?"
Colonel Sahe looked at the other party expressionlessly. For a moment, he had no idea what class the other party was for by insulting his IQ like this.
"Of course, your Marines will be the main force in the airborne assault! The Guards will also use airships to carry out peripheral air assaults on Thuro to cooperate with your operations!"
Yes! Then the biggest possibility is that we will be made dumplings, and you will be beaten so hard that you can't even see the outside of the ancient city of Seruo.
The colonel soon realized that of course he had to refuse. But once he refused, the other party would at least be able to throw away the blame for being afraid of the enemy.
"The main thing is that since there is a violent beast tide here, it is very unscientific! Do you understand what I mean?"
The brigadier general was startled for a moment, then nodded to express his understanding.
Since it is not scientific, of course it is very psychic. This is the law of this universe!
"We have to apply for psykers from the Far Fleet!"
"If that doesn't work, ask the City Autonomous Committee."
Of course there are psykers in the far shore defense fleet. Their chief navigator, their first charge captain, and their flagship medical officer are all extraordinary people. After all, they are directly facing the front line of the empire's defense.
This configuration is also normal.
There are also psychics in New Seville, but they are civilians, and they only receive a subsidy from the municipal government where they live, so naturally they are not subject to military control.
In short, there are no serious military guards or marines in this galaxy, which is a really sad story.
"So, do you want to apply for the Far Coast Fleet?" Sahe said.
Commodore Luben was silent, and of course Colonel Sahe could only remain silent. He was relatively speechless for a while. Let’s not say whether the fleet would give this face, but if the other party really agreed, could it be that only psychics would come?
Or? If we win in the end, who gets the credit?
More importantly, from the perspective of the senior officials of the Earth Military Command, not only did they mobilize local troops and spend a lot of money but lose no troops and no generals, they also had to request fleet support.
Not to mention it’s about merit, maybe I’ll have to retire early again.
No, I can't retire early! I can't "retire early" even if I have to block my whole life in the military! Colonel Sahe clenched his fists, his fighting spirit burning, and said in a high-spirited tone:
"You'd better send someone to Maple City to take a look. If you can help, please help, and then...invite Captain Yu Lian to come over. This is also his scope of responsibility! The situation has reached such a deadlock, and everyone needs to work together.
ah!"
What's more important is that having one more person behind the scenes makes it easier to operate, whether it's communicating with the offshore fleet or taking the blame in the end!
Although Colonel Sacher did not say these words, he believed that Brigadier General Luben opposite him must understand what he meant.
Brigadier General Luben felt that this might be the day when Colonel Sacher spoke the most human-like words.
He sighed, showed a tired expression, and said helplessly: "I always hope that the special correspondent is really as kind as he claims to be. A man on the moon with a great future, a transcendent person, if he is really
If you can understand ordinary grassroots officers like us, that is the blessing of the spirit of the universe."
But anyway, as a special commissioner of the Central Committee, also commonly known as the "Supervisory Army", he did not appear at the Suppression Headquarters for a day, fully expressing his trust in the frontline generals with his attitude.
The more this happens, as frontline generals, after being flattered, they are now left with uncertainty.
"We still have to keep going! Captain Yu Lian gave us the steps, but we can't make it difficult for him!" Brigadier General Lu Ben said.
At this time, his heart was filled with a certain sense of mission, and he was moved by his own righteousness. He felt that subordinates who were as considerate as him and who could consider their superiors and their superiors' "supervisory troops" were the loyal and brave models of the community's frontline generals.
.
"Yes, we still have to fight! But I will never let my men engage in airborne operations!" Colonel Sahe said.
"Okay, if you say you don't want to airborne, you won't airborne." The brigadier general lengthened his voice and said in a tone like coaxing a child: "Then this time, how about gathering more troops, not engaging in false claims, and going for a frontal attack?"
Just as the chief and deputy commanders of the Suppression Headquarters were having heated discussions about the next battle plan, their target was also discussing the next step in the ancient star observation tower in the ancient city of Thuro.
Those present were either gloomy cult leaders or ferocious Lumina rebellion leaders, but the overall atmosphere was quite warm. They had indeed won another victory. In the past few weeks as the opponent's army approached,
They have indeed been winning. But today, they have won the most glorious victory.
"The enemy has completely retreated! Now, the beast tide has poured directly out of the forest, and it should be heading towards the enemy's headquarters."
"Oh... let's have a moment of silence for the bravery and tragedy of our children. The spirit of the universe will be watching them, and their souls will be integrated with the omnipresent Lord of the Underworld!"
Indeed, it is one thing to lay an ambush in the jungle, but it is another thing to directly attack a large and well-defended military base.
"This doesn't count as our victory, right? All the beasts in the Thro Forest are now our allies, but who can guarantee that they won't immediately become our enemies?"
The person who said these words was still the youngest Earth man present. He had always been a cautious person, so everyone was basically used to pouring cold water on him for not being able to read the air.
"However, everything that has happened in the past few days can indeed prove that the notes left in ancient times are correct. The sacrificial vessels we found and our magic circle are also correct!" the older Wanling Sect retorted.
Said, and then looked at Leader Wanda who had been silent before.
"Master, we can continue until the right time..."
"Where is the Central Special Agent sent by Earth, named Captain Yu Lian, now?" Leader Flores Wanda interrupted the other party and directly asked a question that was completely unrelated to the current situation.
Everyone present looked at each other in confusion, and some people couldn't even remember who this person was for a while.
Still the very cautious young man from Earth said: "Always in Maple City."
"Maple City?" Bishop Wanda did not hide her doubts and fell into deep thought.
Naturally, he did not see that a young Lumina man sitting at the bottom, completely hidden in the shadows, also showed a pensive expression.
After a while, Leader Wanda said: "Although that captain is young, he is not good at fighting. He has been standing still... there must be something fishy!"
Just as he was about to say wait a moment, a message ring suddenly sounded on the simple stone table in front of him.
Put in this environment and atmosphere, this of course seems a bit inconsistent.
The leader's eyes seemed a little stiff, but he remained expressionless and opened the information terminal with calm and natural movements.
"Master, there is encrypted communication from outer space, we..."
Before the correspondent finished speaking, Master Flores Wanda stood up, left a message: "I'll come as soon as I go!", and left.
