Chapter 2 Trouble
The fleet continued to advance. In order to ensure safety, the 601 fleet joined the bandit fleet under the order of the Chuckner Army. They will return to the jump point after the bandit army armored division landed on Leifeng Star.
With the captured Jie Peng warship, the bandit fleet quickly grew to five A-class fleets and two B-class fleets. If many Jie Peng warships had not been severely damaged and needed to be directly destroyed or dragged back to the Long March galaxy, the fleet's queue would have been even larger.
What makes people happier than the growth of the fleet is that the barriers and suspicion between the two originally unfamiliar troops have disappeared because of a battle of living and dying. Although the bandit warships played very little role in this space battle, the performance of commander Tian Xingjian has conquered all the officers and soldiers of the Phantom Legion. Especially when a group of captains who were under the command of the fat man in the audience were convinced.
From the bold missile and fish cluster attack in the early stages of the battle, the final use of the fighter cluster, to the dazzling Domino strangle in the end. All of this made them understand that the old man Hastings's vision had never worsened due to his age. He handed the troops over to a reassuring genius.
With the battlefield cleaning and the fleet re-formation work completed, the only thing the captains were surprised by was the whereabouts of the B-class fleet of the bandit army that had never been involved in the battle.
The hierarchy of modern fleets is not determined by the number of warships. In fact, as early as the Earth Federation, the Space Navy had naturally developed a set of strict fleet standards.
Just like the agreed weights and measures of one kilogram or one meter, a Class A fleet is also called a standard combat force fleet.
The comprehensive index of combat effectiveness of a fleet is a very complex scoring system. It needs to be comprehensively scored based on its electronics, defense, assault, speed, endurance, cruise distance, etc. The different combat power and type of equipment of warships in each country will lead to different sizes and numbers of a standard combat force fleet.
In recent years, as countries have built new types of warships in wars, a class fleet that used to be formed by thousands or even two or three thousand large warships can now only need dozens or hundreds of new warships to meet the same combat effectiveness standard.
In terms of the advanced level of the Phantom Fleet warships, a class B-class fleet with combat power of one quarter of the standard fleet, without an aircraft carrier, needs about half of the battleship that class A-class fleet. However, the total number of the B-class fleet of that bandit army is only twenty or thirty, and most of them are battleships of the battleship level, and they are all broken. Can they really be called a class B-class fleet?
In General Tian’s combat plan, this fleet was hidden around the battlefield. But until the end of the battle, the fleet did not appear, and where did they go. The captains, who were itchy by the stealth technology, even felt that they had fought too hard at the beginning and had no chance to see what they wanted to see the most...
The cruiser [Ciliado] slowly led the squadron into the fleet's fusiform sailing formation. While handling the warship affairs, Captain Marcos inadvertently saw an order issued by the flagship on the command computer - the bandit fleet was responsible for destroying the remaining Jepen battleships that had no captured value in the battlefield airspace.
The bandit fleet, are they really around? Marcos opened the hyperopia screen of the command platform in confusion, controlled the rotation direction of the hyperopia device on the bridge, and searched for the traces of the bandit fleet. Like other captains, he had the same questions. Moreover, as the heaviest burden in the battle, he couldn't understand why these warships did not enter the battle at the most difficult time.
The radar suddenly lit up, and Marcos subconsciously fixed the hypervisual screen to the airspace indicated by the radar.
A ragged fleet suddenly emerged from the void, and the sharp collision angle directly hit the abandoned Jie Peng battleship. The steel hull was like a rippling ripples under the violent impact, which immediately twisted and shattered. The bandit warships that rushed forward at high speed were like torpedoes fired from hell.
When the deputy captain and staff beside him were still stunned, Marcos had quickly called out the previous battle situation chart. The airspace where the bandit fleet appeared was...
Marcos opened his mouth wide and then waved his fist fiercely. He could see at a glance that although it was an encounter, since the news that the Jepeng fleet blocked the waterway, the seemingly careless fat commander had left a way out for the entire fleet before fighting with the enemy.
While he prepared the fleet to carry out his amazing tactics, he also considered the possibility of defeat.
Once the battle fails, the Phantom Fleet can only retreat to the barrier area of the fifth section. The airspace that the B-class fleet of the bandit army has been hidden is on the flank of the pursuing Jie Peng Fleet route! They stay quietly, silently, like a group of wolves lying in the grass. They are ready to use their bodies as the retreat of the main force of the fleet at any time to carry out a crazy attack and intercept!
Marcos applauded hard. The applause became louder and louder in the captains' communication channel.
Although the appearance of the B-class fleet of the bandit army was already settled, their appearance at this time made the captains more amazed than they appeared in battle.
Because, everyone knows that it is no luck to achieve this victory.
The fleet arrived at the Leifeng starry sky nine hours later.
Along the way, this huge fleet allowed the Jie Peng fleet along the way to avoid it. In this airspace, outside the super fleet of the Sankaka Youren and the main fleet gathered by the Seus people, there were not many people who could provoke five A-class fleets. Most of them were just wandering on the channel, looking for the Sijo B-class fleet that attacked the Fei League's logistics. It was tantalizing to send it to you at this time.
When there were two sections left before Leifeng Star, the fleet and Qian Berlin Fleet joined together. When they saw the Jie Peng battleships that originally belonged to the Jie Peng Longqi Fleet in the bandit fleet, all the officers and soldiers of the Qian Berlin Fleet almost fell off their chins.
In just three hours, the fleet cleared the Leifeng starry sky and opened the passage with fighter planes in the Leifeng star atmosphere. At 8:40 in the morning on January 3, two giant transport ships slowly landed in Phoenix City, Leifeng star.
Phoenix City is a plain city. The straight-line distance between east, west, south and north is more than 200 kilometers. Although it is not as good as Hanjing, it is also considered a large city.
However, now the city looks more like a huge barracks.
Military flying vehicles are bumping on the bumpy road.
These planets and cities in the Reske Galaxy have experienced several years of artillery destruction and have long ceased to be as prosperous as before. Cracks of all sizes can be seen everywhere, and even if the road is repaired, they are still uneven. Magnetic metal wires have long disappeared, and all flying cars can only put down their wheels and move in the oldest way.
In the distance, the tall buildings were like forests burned by fire. At first glance, you can only see rows of twisted alloy frames towering into the clouds. The exterior walls full of holes, broken walls that make various sounds in the wind, and the cross-sections that are like being slashed by a knife, full of gravel steel bars... Everything is so desolate.
The ground was still lively. On the road leading to the military headquarters, military vehicles and mechas were constantly traveling. There were temporary military camps on both sides of the road, and countless soldiers were running and busy. There were Chuckner soldiers, Feiyang soldiers, and many coalition soldiers from various countries.
In the woods on the street, there are camouflage nets hanging. Several command mechas' cabins expanded and formed a temporary open-air command post. Such command posts are everywhere, usually first-level grassroots command posts. Private, second-class, corporal, sergeant... Most of the people coming and going are ordinary soldiers or low-level officers with no rank than captains.
The simple combination barracks did not have a careful and unified planning, and each battalion and company were arranged according to the actual terrain of their own area. The clothes hung were full of wounded soldiers, the temporary arsenals strictly guarded, and the mechas being repaired passed by as the flying car moved.
As the fat man looked at the soldiers covered in smoke, the soldiers walking in line or sitting in front of the empty ammunition box were looking at the convoy heading to the high alert area. When he saw that the soldiers and officers in the convoy were wearing uniforms different from them, many people stopped or stood up with metal coffee cups.
There were surprise smiles on their faces, some waved their hands enthusiastically, while others were blinded.
"Hey guys, are you the reinforcements that just arrived?" a private Chuckner shouted at the top of his voice.
Perhaps someone in the convoy nodded, and the second-class and his companions were suddenly excited. "Get on to the bastards in Siyo," the dirty soldiers waved their hands and made all kinds of strange screams. Before the convoy left their sight, they shouted: "Good luck, man. You came too soon."
From landing to the command center, the convoy crossed nearly half of Phoenix City. The same scene along the way was.
However, as the guide car turned left and right, and kept shuttled through the convoys of city streets and bridges, the inspections they encountered became more and more strict, the barracks became more and more neat, and the soldiers became more and more concise.
"I... like... here," the fat man shook his face and body in the bumpy flying car, and his voice became less coherent. "On land, it's much better to be locked in an iron box... and float in space...."
No one paid attention to him, and a group of officers, including Margaret, were all blue in their faces due to the bumps in the flying car.
This torture finally ended in front of an intact building.
When the fat man walked out of the flying car, dozens of officers wearing different uniforms waiting in front of the gate steps burst into thunderous applause.
General Chuckner, who is of medium figure, thick eyebrows and big eyes, quickly met up and held the fat man's hand: "Welcome to Lei Fengxing, General Tian Lieutenant."
Immediately, the officers who were greeting surrounded the bandit officers who were walking down from one flying car. Everyone shook hands and greeted each other.
"Please," Chen Fengxi half turned sideways, climbed up the stairs side by side with the fat man, and said with a smile: "General Tian, I just received the message from General Qian Berlin. He told me that you have solved a big problem for him in the Oxtail Department."
Hearing Chen Fengxi's words, the originally noisy greetings suddenly dropped a lot of decibels. The officers who were greeting all raised their ears and carefully observed the expressions of the bandit officers beside them.
They just received this news. The Dragon Cavalry fleet was wiped out and O'Bone was killed. This is like a shot of a heart-warming shot for the current situation in Resk. However, this news is too incredible and everyone is a little unbelievable.
"I'm just trying to solve the trouble," the fat man tried hard to control the pride on his face, and put on an insignificant face, saying, "No matter whether it's big or small...."
"Squeak..." A harsh and emergency brake sounded behind him.
Dozens of officers who were about to enter the command center subconsciously turned around.
A military flying car was parked in front of him. A sweaty lieutenant colonel staff member jumped out of the flying car and rushed towards Chen Fengxi quickly. While climbing the steps, the staff member almost fell into a fight.
"Sir," the panting lieutenant colonel staggered, then supported his hands on the steps, stabilized his body, and handed a document in his hand to Chief of Staff Pierre: "Urgent War Report."
Pierre, who had not looked very good, opened the battle report and only looked at it twice. The blood on his face faded away like a tide.
He quickly walked up the stairs, passed through the passage where the officers made way out, walked to Chen Fengxi, and handed the documents to Chen Fengxi: "General, I think we have encountered a big trouble. The northern theatre of the Frenzo Town was captured by the Jepeng army, and the defense line of the 172nd Division of the 17th Division of the Resk Front Army was lost and the entire army was wiped out. At present, the enemy is advancing along the intercity road of the Frenzo Town toward our defense line. According to reliable intelligence, the enemy has invested in an Arguer Armor Company of the Binalt Empire in this direction...."
As he said that, he swallowed quickly and said to Chen Fengxi: "...Sir, we must block the enemy before he drilled through our defense line. Otherwise, once they spread to the wings and detour behind my other defense line, the consequences will be unimaginable."
“Adjudgers’ troops?!”
As soon as he heard this name, the scene suddenly became turbulent. The officers' faces suddenly became extremely ugly. Everyone had known that the Sjog had sent the Deciders' troops on Leifeng Star, but they did not expect that this troops would have appeared so soon.
According to legend, only the only one who can withstand this army...
