Chapter 49 Assessment
The Alxa Fortress is still a busy scene.
Military officers and soldiers wearing uniforms of different countries shuttled back and forth; majestic warships moved slowly one by one in the port.
The light of the stars sprinkled on the fortress, like a golden robe. The glass of the space train moving rapidly on the tracks outside the fortress reflected the red flame and passed by.
Everything is the same as before.
The only difference is that the people in the fortress greet each other at the pier, in the fortress corridor, and in the leisure area, and their eyes were more anticipated than usual.
The war god Hastings will personally arrive at the Alexander Fortress. The Allied Command will welcome her supreme commander.
For the coalition forces stationed in the Alxa Fortress, this news is extremely exciting.
These people from different countries share a common identity - soldiers. Because of this war, they gathered here and tried to gather all their strength to win the final victory for their country.
And what twisted them tightly into a rope, fingers that made them resolute without hesitation is the idol of all soldiers of this era that they will see with their own eyes - the generation of military god Hastings!
The war situation has entered the most tense period.
The Sauber approached step by step in the Carlston Galaxy. The war between the Ryan Republic and the Naga Federation became fierce due to Li Fo's strong attack. The western countries were strangled into pieces. The northern star domain, the northeast star domain, and the southwest star domain were also war neglasses. All countries had their strongest strength to fight and compete.
And over the past few days, the Southeast Star Domain, which has the most turbulent situation, has staged a series of good shows.
Douglas attacked the Blue Stone Star, and the Humphrey fleet crossed the central channel of Lerey like a ghost, and then broke into the Longbow Galaxy, which made people fall into the eye. The famous general of Jie Peng and the chief commander of the Southeast War Zone, Mikami Youren is as cunning as a fox. He used the Humphrey fleet to attract everyone's attention, attacking the east and west, and attacking Resk in surprise.
All this is changing so fast that it is almost impossible to blink or breathe!
No matter how turbulent the situation changes, and if the Fei League wins or loses on all fronts, Hastings, as the commander of the Allied Army, was abnormal and without any action. He had no instructions, no guidance and analysis, and did not participate in any affairs of the command center... It seemed that this war had nothing to do with him when it entered the most critical and intense moment.
No one understands what happened. All kinds of rumors are circulating.
Some say that Hastings is terminally ill, some say that Hastings has abdicated and given up the virtuous, and some say that Hastings is silent and gathers his strength and is ready to give Sober a fatal blow...
Hastings remained silent about all rumors.
Even some voices questioning him began to rise, and even some people who helped Li Fo attack the Catalonian galaxy after he was forced to attack the Catalonian galaxy, inciting the public to demand his step down and demanded that he be responsible for the current disadvantage of the Fei League, he did not make any noise at all.
No one expected that when the Binard fleet won one after another in the Carlston Galaxy and the Flynn fleet retreated step by step, Hastings actually reached the Allied Command, which now bets all his energy and attention on the Southeast war situation.
His appearance is not just as simple as his personal arrival here. His actions have a deeper meaning that is worthy of repeated thinking and chewing.
The port space mask slowly opened. Dozens of majestic Feiyang battleships arranged in neat formations through the warships of various countries that were parked on both sides, heading towards the Pier No. 1 of the Fortress.
The people in the fortress stopped everything at hand and gathered by the porthole, watching these Feiyang's latest warships slowly pass by their eyes. The beautiful and sturdy hull, the mighty bow, the majestic main gun, the somewhat exaggerated but amazing shape...
Hastings, finally here!
The room is decorated simply and warmly.
The large amount of wooden decoration and soft leather wrapped around the walls makes it impossible to believe that this will be the cabin on an aircraft carrier.
At the desk, Hastings was sitting in a wheelchair, quietly watching the information in his hand. Margaret stood beside him, gently holding the high back of the wheelchair with one hand.
The warships anchored in the port slid silently through the porthole, and the light of the stars passed through the fortress's huge circular water pipe and sprinkled into the room.
Hastings slowly lowered the electronic folder in his hand, sighed a long time, and closed his eyes.
Margaret massaged his shoulders with distress.
The torture of illness has made this great military god so thin that it is too thin for humans. The medical cabin has no effect on him at all. Even the medical team composed of Fei Yang's most outstanding medical experts cannot determine when this military god will leave this world. If you have to say a time, it is - anytime, anywhere.
However, although he suffered from unbearable illnesses and pains, Hastings' spirit was still strong. He had never failed. Even when facing illnesses, he could not see pain or haggardness on his face.
On the table is the latest Chaknaresk battle report. Li Hongwu successfully arrived at Canglang Star and dragged the Jaipeng Thunder Super Fleet who was escorting Canglang Star and obtained the air supremacy of Canglang Star. Now, four space carriers of the Allied fleet are floating above Canglang Star, and countless air-based fighter jets are leaving the mothership to form a formation, breaking into the atmosphere in waves.
Login is about to happen. The entire login plan is also placed in front of Hastings.
Old friend Li Cunxin is still alive. Even Hastings, who is calm, can't help but feel happy about this news. But the child of Little Margaret... After the Longbow Galaxy gave everyone a surprise, he once again gave Feimeng a surprise.
He couldn't understand the situation in Chuckner's domestic situation.
President Hill, Chuckner, has been hesitating, and this time, he will definitely do his best! This is determined by the national character of the Chuckners. When this country devotes itself to the war, the entire universe will tremble at it.
When Margaret, who was back to her, mentioned the little guy named Tian Xingjian for a total of 367 times, Hastings couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth.
I’m afraid that the fat man wouldn’t have thought that for him, he would come to Alexa. He came here to plant a seed in the Southeast Star Domain for the future!
"Maggie..." Hastings gently patted Margaret's hand on her shoulder, signaling her to stop, and asked, "What do you think?"
"The situation in Resk?" Margaret squatted around Hastings, looking up at her grandfather.
"I asked the little fat man named Tian Xingjian..." Hastings smiled sly: "I'll forget it. These days, you have mentioned him more than 300 times in front of me. Anyway, you will pull him onto him later, so I'll just ask you first."
"Grandpa!" Margaret's face suddenly flushed.
Hastings smiled, full of doting, reached out to touch Margaret's sunny blonde hair, and smiled, "Nothing is embarrassing. You have a good vision, and I have a good vision. How many young generals can be seen in this world who can be loved by both of us grandchildren at the same time?!"
"That guy is a monster!" Margaret's face was stern, but his eyes were full of shyness and smile.
"Then isn't my future great-grandson of Hastings just a little monster?" Hastings' eyes were a little straight.
"Grandpa!" Margaret bit her lip and stared at Hastings fiercely until Hastings smiled and raised his hands. Margaret was the only one in the world who could make the God of War Hastings raise his hands to surrender.
At the other end of the room, several officers looked at each other and smiled.
Although I couldn't hear what the grandfather and grandson said, Hastings, the always serious warrior, could have such a childlike heart and let outsiders see it, and it would probably cause many people to dislocate their chins. At this time, Hastings was like a child.
The battleship slowly approached the berth. Dozens of giant traction devices with a diameter of thirty meters extended from the berth and firmly clamped into the slot on the side of the battleship. When Hastings was pushed by Margaret in a wheelchair and appeared at the docking passage, the generals of the command center headed by General McKinley had already been waiting at the door of the cabin.
Seeing Hastings appearing in front of him, generals with different expressions greeted him one after another and raised their hands to salute.
"His Excellency Marshal."
The rumors are obviously true. Hastings in front of him has completely changed his appearance compared to his past.
Many people look at each other and look worried.
They couldn't imagine what the world would be like if Hastings was lost.
As long as Hastings is alive, even if he doesn't issue a single order, it's fine! He is the pillar of the sky in the hearts of the people of the Fei League. If he loses him, who will hold up this sky?
Feimeng, there is no such a hero!
In addition to worrying, what made everyone curious is that Hastings ignored the retreating Carlston Galaxy, but came to the Allied Command at this time. What was the purpose of his trip? What kind of signal was his signal?!
At present, the most important battles in the Allied Command are only two aspects.
On the one hand, it is the Ryan battlefield where the Lifo army is located, and on the other hand, it is naturally the most critical Chakner battlefield now. It is reported that after Lifo's victory in the last battle, his reputation was at its peak, and he was faintly overwhelming. In Feiyang, some people have even begun to create momentum for him to become the number one in the military.
In the Fei League, the Hastings family has been in charge of the military for nearly a hundred years, and Hastings even won the title of gods in a battle thirty years ago. However, as Hastings grew older and his physical condition worsened, no one in the Hastings family seemed to be able to carry the banner. Although Margaret's talent was extremely high, compared with famous generals like Li Fo, she was still lacking in seven points of experience.
Once Hastings dies, will the internal power struggle in Feiyang suddenly change? What are the plans of Hastings for Li Fo who was out of the cage? What kind of pawns did he ambush the war?!
All the questions were entangled in the hearts of the generals. Their complex eyes moved with Hastings' wheelchair to a person they had not expected.
"General Bernardot," Hastings, who had just nodded slightly with everyone, held Bernardot's hand alone.
Although I have seen Hastings countless times, as a small and medium-sized member country with weak military strength and always the mainstream of peace ideas, Bernardot and Hastings do not have much intersection.
At this moment, Hastings actually stopped talking alone in front of him. The people next to him were surprised, and even Bernardote himself was a little surprised.
"That boy is doing a good job." Hastings' words made the people on the side look at Bernardote completely changed.
Who can that boy call Hastings this?!
"When the battle on the front line stabilizes, arrange for him to come back," Hastings smiled and held Bernardote's hand tightened: "I want to meet this Lerey hero who always surprises us. His performance has conquered me."
As he said that, as if he had not seen the wonderful expressions of the generals around him, Hastings smiled and turned his head to look at General McKinley who was following closely, and asked, "How is the situation on Canglangxing now?"
McKinley bowed slightly and reported: "Something happened. The original plan command of General Li Hongwu had no objection. However, according to the latest information, the 13th Panzer Division and the 51st Mechanical and Infantry Division led by Marshal Li Cunxin suddenly divided their troops after annihilating the enemy's 231st Panzer Division. The main force moved towards Shuangxiqiao Town as planned, and an armored battalion divided north to Beiguan City."
"Oh? Divide the troops?" Hastings was a little surprised. He had repeatedly checked the map of the northern mountainous areas, and the entire terrain was in his mind. Shuangxiqiao Town undoubtedly locked the gate of Jie Peng's troops in the northern mountainous areas back to Beiguan City. As long as you stuck here and cooperated with the four surrounding landing sites, whether in time or space, Jie Peng's troops had no other way out.
Logically speaking, at this time, Li Cunxin should not have divided his troops. A whole armored battalion accounted for a considerable proportion of the combat effectiveness of this army. Moreover, from the war zone 60 kilometers east of the Flins Agricultural Zone, it is necessary to go around the eastern suburbs of Beiguan City. There are no important strategic goals. Even if there is, what can a battalion do? If it is stuck in Shuangxi Bridge, two divisions can hold up to at least three days. In less than three days, only a few dozen hours, the battle will be won!
"Why divide the troops?" Hastings frowned.
"The enemy troops in Beiguan City have been dispatched and are moving very quickly." McKinley replied: "When Marshal Li Cunxin's troops just completed the battle, the enemy had already appeared less than forty kilometers away. Moreover, the 2nd Armored Division of the Royal First Guard, Jepeng's most elite."
"Ah!" Margaret behind Hastings let out a low scream.
Hastings's face became solemn.
"They want to use a battalion's troops to hold down the Second Armored Division of Jie Peng?"
"Yes." McKinley nodded. This almost crazy plan caused a stir in the command before Hastings arrived. Many generals were fiercely opposed. The danger of this plan was too great. If a battalion dragged down the entire armored division of Jappen, if there was a mistake, the situation would probably take a sharp turn. At that time, the entire Allied counterattack plan would be affected.
Some people object, and some people support it.
This army has been a miracle along the way. And they were divided into three groups of troops to head north through the heavy siege, which was originally an adventure! However, they succeeded. Moreover, the armored battalion only needed to hold the enemy division for a few hours. As long as the defense line of Shuangxiqiao Town is built, the forces of the two divisions, with the cooperation of the air-based aircraft group, not to mention an armored division, even if they dragged all the top five armored divisions of the Royal First Guard, they could support the entire landing combat plan.
"Who is the commander who led this armored battalion?" Hastings asked, but his eyes looked directly at Bernardote.
Sure enough, McKinley's answer confirmed his judgment: "It was Major General Leretian Xingjian."
Hastings patted Margaret's hand, which had been whitened by force, and nodded slightly.
I am here, I am the right one.
I just don’t know whether this candidate will stand out or disappear into this vast era when facing this harsh assessment that even the examiner did not expect.
With the strength of a battalion, he restrained a whole armored division, and was also the elite of the Jie Peng Royal First Guard, who had excellent combat power.
This guy is really like the intelligence provided by the intelligence department, timid and afraid of death?!
On Canglangxing, he didn't have to work so hard. What exactly is he doing? Perhaps the reason for this is because he also has a plan that is beyond his imagination.
What kind of variables will be there in the future? Can you still see it in your lifetime?
The ten fighter planes were divided into five formations and entered the atmosphere from space.
This sky is still dominated by the night, and at the far end of the arcuate earth, the sunlight has drawn a golden arc with thick and thin wings in the middle. The mountains, rivers and jungles in front have begun to wake up.
"Accelerate!" Under the command of the long aircraft, the fleet accelerated suddenly and rushed towards the rolling clouds. The speedometer of the fighter jet had exceeded the range limited by the danger caused by the air friction when entering the atmosphere. However, these fighter jets had no intention of safety at all. The pilots with their lips tightly pursed their eyes firmly.
Time! In that dawn sunshine, there is an armored battalion that is buying time for everyone. Time is so precious now, not only this air-based fighter jet squadron, but also countless similar fighter jet formations, fleets in space, giant transport ships that have begun to land, and army mechas that are already lined up to rush to their destination while the hatch door is opened!
Everyone has been mobilized by the armored battalion in the center of the vortex, and has been mobilized by the Shuangxiqiao Town, which is desperately building fortifications. Every second wasted is a crime against those partners who exchanged their lives for opportunities.
Chapter completed!
