The sunlight that penetrated the study had begun to tilt.The sunset is like fire, and the study is also faintly red."
Later, we learned that it was not Sober who commanded the battle of the Western Fleet at the beginning, but another famous general of the Binalte Empire, Carnegie, known as the all-metal defense line."
The reporter looked at Macchia, who was sitting opposite, and asked, "This is also regarded by many military scientists as one of the main factors in the defeat of the Western Covenant Army."
In their opinion, if the battle was commanded by Sober at the beginning, maybe the battle would have gone to another result......"
"There is no war if ......"
The old man waved his hand holding his pipe, and said with a faint smile: "Besides, the front line of the Western Covenant is commanded by Banning, Kadel, and Keens, and there are Carnegie in the back, not to mention dealing with that guy, even if it is against Marshal Hastings, there is nothing to blame." ”"But they still lost to General Tian Xingjian in the previous battle."
The reporter said, "Didn't Sober personally take action later?"
”"Did Sober win?"
The old man asked rhetorically with a smile.The reporter was stunned and argued: "But at that time, he even once forced General Tian to the point of exhaustion!"
If he had commanded the battle from the beginning, he would have had more time, perhaps ......"
"Then why didn't he command the battle from the beginning?"
”The old man asked leisurely."
This ......," the reporter stammered.In fact, this issue has been repeatedly debated by many for a long time.It has been suggested that there was no result for Sober at that time.No one understands why Sober gave command of the fleet to Carnegie.He did not command the battle at the first time."
If you really want to talk about the factors of the commander candidate, everyone should actually look at it the other way around."
The old man said with a smile.The reporter was puzzled: "Look the other way around?
”"Yes!"
The old man knocked his pipe and nodded: "Everyone only saw that Carnegie was defeated by Tian Xingjian's hands in the tactical command of breaking through the outer defense chain, but they did not show it, and they actually did not make any mistakes at this stage of the battle."
On the contrary, they wielded a higher level of command than they had before, so that this stage became the most tragic and brutal stage of the entire battle!
”The reporter listened quietly.He knew that the battle for the Filipino Alliance to break through the Western Covenant defensive chain lasted a full forty-eight hours.The fighting was extremely fierce.The two sides fought fiercely along the chain of defenses constructed by the Western Covenanters.The total number of battles that can be accurately calculated is more than 800 times.The duration is so long, and the intensity of the battle is incredible!
Until now, whenever people see the semi-circular battleship graveyard outside Leret, they can't help but shake their hearts and stick out their tongues."
Carnegie's defensive level is not weaker than Sauber's.This man specializes in one subject, and his perseverance is extremely tenacious, and even Sauber himself admits that if he makes a spear and Carnegie is a shield, he will have to pay a considerable price if he wants to break through Carnegie's defenses. ”The old man said slowly, "Therefore, it was actually quite a clever strategy for the people of the Western Covenant to let Carnegie and them fight this battle at that time. ”The old man's thoughts seemed to return from the silent study to the era of war."
That battle was really bitter!
It was so bitter that Fujii and I didn't want to remember it at all when we first arrived after the war.We are only front-line command operations, responsible for the specific command of the fleet.But the tactical changes on the entire battlefield were concentrated on the fat man alone.For two days, he was on the podium battling Carnegie and the others.Sober, on the other hand, was quietly recuperating on the side......"
The reporter couldn't help but shudder.From the old man's account alone, he could hear the tragedy and danger of that battle.Put yourself in your shoes, when a person wants to command a battle that lasts for two whole days, has a total of more than 800 local battles, and thousands of tactical changes, and has exhausted his mental strength, there is a famous general next to him who is recuperating and recuperating next to him, silent and not busy shooting, and only staring at you, that feeling is actually more terrifying than the opponent shooting at the beginning."
Sober didn't make a mistake, and Carnegie and they were long.However, at that time, they didn't know that Tian Xingjian, who had mastered the basic tactics, was no longer the Tian Xingjian of the past.His body concentrates the essence of Russell and Hastings's military science, and he has his own unbridled tactical imagination......"
"And more importantly......"
The old man looked at the reporter and smiled slightly: "In terms of computing ability, Tian Xingjian is unparalleled in the world!"
”………… Ryan's flagship [Golden Chariot] is a flat, sunfish-like [Sun]-class space carrier.At this moment, surrounded by dozens of battleships, she is releasing space fighters while going up the iron current composed of surging enemy ships, leading the fleet to fight bravely.One after another, fighter planes shot out of the ejection channel.The rotating turrets scattered all over the mothership pulled out terrifying rays of death in all directions.In the six wells on the upper deck of the ship, a group of 100 missiles is fired every 30 seconds.The tail light of a long-range high-altitude missile is like a firefly in the night.The tail smoke from the solid-fuel missile at close range shrouded the body of the battleship with billowing white clouds, and one after another extended into the distance with the missile, like a series of tentacles that were thin in front and thick in the void.As the battleship advanced, fireball-like explosions flashed on both sides.A blinding flash of light lit up from the porthole on the left side of the bridge's command hall.Fujii just stared at it, only to see the white light condensed by a Lane battleship on the left side of the period suddenly exploded, and the energy light bullet shot straight out, swept through the void, and silently sank into the belly of a Western cruiser.Everything, like a slow-motion picture, Fujii can even clearly see how the armor of the cruiser Cillo is shattered and broken, and how its shell melts and deforms in front of the oval-shaped light cluster, cracking a large hole.As the light cluster submerged, the entire battleship was like a snake that had swallowed an elephant, and its belly suddenly expanded.The flat deck slammed up, and the entire bridge and metal hull were sharply twisted and deformed.In an instant, the cruiser Seeyo exploded in an earth-shattering explosion, turning into a huge fireball and countless wrecks flying in all directions.There was also a Western fighter plane that happened to pass by it, and because the pilot couldn't dodge, it was blown up by the impact of the explosion** and was blown up in the air.It turned into a small red thorn in this red cactus-like ball of fire!
Fujii clenched his fists tightly.In the universe, everything is silent.All the beautiful, gorgeous, tragic, crazy scenes can only be captured by the eyes!
It's a brutal war, and it's a feast for the eyes!
On the tactical computer of the command seat, a prompt sound of the flagship's command was heard.Looking at the battle orders coming from the [Hamilton] President, a smile appeared on the corner of Fujii's mouth.The directive coincides with his thoughts!
He raised his head, and on the main screen of Skynet, the three A-class fleets under Banning's command had been surrounded by their own fleet.Countless Lane warships, like swarms, wrapped around the three circles of the Western fleet.In the hall, the combat officers and staff officers were looking at themselves, waiting for their final orders!
As long as an order is given, the Ryan fleet will bite off the first piece of meat from the people of Xiyue!
Looking at the expectant eyes of the officers and soldiers, Fujii Tsuyoshi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he did not hesitate to give a loud order: "Order, the A28O1 fleet will cut along the third anti-tangent line of the battle group, and the main formation of the battleships will move forward ......"
As he spoke, he clenched his fist and smashed it hard, and roared: "Hit me hard!"
”"Yes!"
As soon as his voice landed, there was already a roar in the command hall and in the fleet's communication channel!"
166 Fighter Squadron, follow me!""
Kill!"
The fighter pilot roared wildly and the fighter plane rolled and flew away, rushing towards the three Western fleets that were surrounded by the swarm of Lane's fleet.The gunners turned up the rock music to the maximum, with a high-pitched drum beat accompaniment to a cannonball that plunged into an enemy ship!
The captains even commanded their warships to rush upward.The three Western fleets, which had been surrounded by regiments, ushered in their end.When the A28O1 fleet cut directly into the center of the wargroup along the third anti-tangent line of the wargroup, the three fleets were cut off.When the hideous muzzles of the battleship's main array emerged from the surrounding group of ships, condensed with white light, and aimed at the battleship of the Western Covenant.There is no suspense about the end of the annihilation of the three Western Fleets!"
Fire!
Fire!
”With the roar of the Lane people, the fierce artillery fire from all directions quickly converged towards the center of the battle group!
This terrifying white light tore at the bodies of the Western Covenant warships, destroying their energy shields in an instant, tearing their armor apart, and sweeping out large holes in their hulls.Make them look like sheep surrounded by a pack of machine gunners."

Beautiful!"
A Captain Ryan, whoa-wow-wow in the communication channel."
The Banning of the dog also has today!"
Another captain, dancing from the command seat!
The Republic of Lane and the Naga Federation are a feud.And Banning, the famous general of the Naga Federation, made these Lane officers and soldiers deeply hateful, and they couldn't wait to eat their flesh and sleep on their skin!
Over the years, too many of their comrades have fallen in front of Banning.It can be said that every pore on Banning's hands is stained with the blood of the Lane people!
In the past, the Lane Army may have repelled or even defeated Banning at one point, but they have never bitten a piece of meat from Banning through tactical changes like today when they are inferior to their forces!
Seeing the peripheral Western fleet rushing over in a frustration, they tried again and again to break into the Filipino alliance formation to rescue their own fleet, but under the exquisite cooperation of their own warships, they returned again and again in vain.Every Ryan officer and soldier laughed.With the Skynet screen, one after another Xiyo battleships were turned into ashes in the explosion, and the command hall was also full of jubilation.The staff officers either high-fived each other to celebrate this victory of great significance, or stared at the Skynet screen with blazing eyes, carefully appreciating the subtleties of this tactical coordination.The target of the Ryan fleet is point F.Point F is the hub of the channel connecting the 1-15 airports of Leretto.It turned out that in this location, there was a space station for ships to temporarily moor, six levitating navigation towers, and a towing boat station for the Le Ray Waterway Administration.In peacetime, it's one of the busiest airspaces on Leretto.But now, the space station and the navigation tower have all been reduced to broken copper suspended in space.And the boats at the towboat station have also been converted into migrant ships in the Leray migration.In the west, twenty A-class fleets were arranged on the waterway at this location.Because of the large number of access routes, these fleets were divided into five large groups, each stationed in an airspace.The overall shape looks like an irregular plum blossom.As far as Banning's arrangement is concerned, it can be described as quite rigorous.You must know that when the Western Space Fighter entered the atmosphere of Leretus, the defense fleet only retained a few fighters.On average, there is only one space carrier in ten A-class fleets.As a result, control over the surrounding airspace is relatively weak.This plum-shaped formation not only supports each other, but also maximizes the area of control.As a link in the outer defense chain, Banning's mission was to prevent the Fijian coalition from attacking the inner ring.The inner circle refers to the 400,000 kilometers of airspace bounded by the [Blue Moon] star.In this airspace, in addition to the command cluster of the West Covenant and the slow-moving giant transport ships loaded with the 6th Army, closer to the atmosphere, more than 80 percent of the space carriers currently in the West Covenant are concentrated.These motherships, which provide supply support for the fighters attacking the atmosphere, have basically no protection because they are far away from the main battleship formation of the fleet, and once they are rushed to the side by the Filipino warships, they will not even have the power to fight back.Therefore, Banning's strategy is to focus on holding on.Do not let the Fijian fleet destroy the 6th battle of Deng.In the eyes of all the Celestial people, including him, this battle was not difficult.The Filipino coalition is just a desperate gamble.As long as their own defense is solid, they will naturally rush up again and again to hit their heads and break the bloodstream.After a few times, the blood and energy of the Fimeng people will fade, and the body and spirit will be tired.When the 6th Battle of Deng was successful and the 6th Army launched its operation, the overall situation of this battle was decided.At that time, it will be easy to defeat or even completely annihilate the southeastern coalition forces of the Filipino Alliance!
It was precisely because of this psychology that the Western Fleet, which had the advantage of strength, did not panic at all when it saw the eighteen Lane fleets rushing towards them in a trident formation.They calmly responded to the battle in accordance with the established deployment.The five plum blossom-like warships clustered, flickering forward and backward, flickering left and right, firmly blocking the Fiji alliance fleet.As with the battle situation at point U, point C and point K, the engagement between the two sides is extremely fast.This is because when the Filipino coalition forces appear to attack in parallel, they adopt the offensive method of short-range jumps followed by high-level advances.It is completely different from the way that the two armies of the two armies of the Twin Star Horns move in the same direction as the battleship itself and slowly approach.In just a minute or two, the two fleets entered the firing range and exchanged fire, and they quickly strangled each other.In the battle phase, Banning used the [Chain] defensive tactic.This tactic, which includes the [Cobra] tactic and the [Sheep's Horn Turn] tactic, is an advanced compound tactic with strong defense and a certain amount of attack power.In battle, the five plum petal-like ships will keep their feet high.This kind of wandering is not in one direction, but like a sheep's horn, in two semicircles.In this way, the main array of battleships of the fleet can always be in motion, change formation at any time, seize the angle of attack, and suppress artillery fire.At the same time, the destroyer clusters on its periphery also guarded the main formation in the roaming circle, and provided cover for several A-class fleets in the center to find an opportunity to surprise attack.The Ryan fleet, under the command of the fat man, adopted the simplest and most direct [wolf pack tactics] in the battle stage.The eighteen A-class fleets were like a huge trident, divided into three arrows, the left and right arrows each formed a wolf pack of four fleets to outflank the group, and in the middle eight fleets formed the main attack group of the wolf pack.As soon as the battle began, the Fislim Alliance was attacked by the main ship formation of the Western Covenant ship group.However, because the Fijian fleet was relatively dispersed, the distance was close, and the degree was fast, the loss was not large.Soon, the two sides were in close combat.Eighteen Ryan A-class fleets, like eighteen hungry wolves, pounced on the West Covenant fleet separately.The Western Fleet, on the other hand, relied on its dense formation and superiority in strength to confront the Ryan fleet.As far as the tactical conditions are concerned, the two armies are half-hearted.Xiyo won a strong force, the main array of battleships fired a powerful salvo, and occupied the key points of the channel, and the formation was complete and stable.Fimeng, on the other hand, is fast, has many attack points, and is flexible.The battle was fierce from the start.Lane flotilla pounced again and again, trying to tear apart the formation of Banning's fleet, while Banning calmly defended the counterattack and defused the offensive.The fleets of the two sides came and went, and suddenly the Filipino fleet pressed over, forcing the enemy to retract on all fronts.Suddenly, the Sijlos pressed out through counterattacks, forcing the Filipino fleet to temporarily avoid the edge.In the seventieth minute, the tide of battle changed.At that time, Fujii Tsuyoshi was preparing to order the 191 and 192 fleets on the left flank to attack the two Desik fleets not far away.However, the instructions that appeared on the tactical computer vetoed his plan.The fat man ordered the 191st and 192nd fleets to immediately take the left helm 12oo ticks and bypass behind the Ryan O61 fleet, which was shelling the opposing fleet.At the same time, the space fighters of the sixteen brigades of the central group, which had just completed the replenishment and were ready to be dispatched again, changed the original battle plan and made a two-way detour along the outer line of the central war group.This instruction made Fujii Gang hesitate a little.However, out of trust in the fat man, he still faithfully carried out the order.Under his orders, the two A-class fleets quickly turned their ships to the left and moved to the left flank in two spindle formations.At the same time, the fighters released by the mothership did not attack immediately, but first flew backward to the big roundabout, and then divided into two clusters, flying from the left and right in an arc to the fatty's designated coordinates.Because of this action, the right flank of the Lane fleet, which had already been pressed up, was forced to retreat due to the intensified offensive of the enemy.Just when everyone was still speculating about the effect of the fat man's tactical change, they suddenly appeared that the 191st and 192nd fleets had just moved, and the four West Covenant A-class fleets located in the center of the West Covenant formation [Snake Head] once again made a surprise attack to the middle.The last time I raided, it was more than twenty minutes ago.At that time, under the cover of the two wing fleets, the central fleet of the Western Covenant suddenly pounced along the passage of the driving patrol group, directly seized the central attack position, and forced the Lane fleet, which had already overwhelmed the main formation of the Western Covenant, to turn to evade.Not only did it pay the price of nearly 20 warships, but it also stopped the momentum of the strong offensive that had been formed with great difficulty.Now, the people of the West Covenant have repeated their old tricks, and the four fleets are like the heads of cobras, and they are quickly poking out.This time, their huge fangs were aimed at the four fleets on the left flank!
As soon as he saw this situation, without waiting for the fat man's further instructions, Fujii Tsuyoshi understood everything.Under his order, the two fleets of 191 and 192 suddenly came out from behind the O61 fleet, ignoring the Western Fleet that was shooting at the O61 fleet, and killed diagonally to the left front.At the same time, the group of fighters that had already arrived at the predetermined coordinates also quickly outflanked them.The West Fleet that rushed out had already mentioned the whole of it, and the four A-class fleets formed a huge herringbone shape in front of the two behind.Just as the battleships of the Western Covenant rushed out of the awayed patrol group and struck the flank of the left flank of the Ryan fleet through the empty airspace in front of the formation, all the Ryan officers and men held their breath.They saw that at some point, more than 1,000 Ryan space fighters were silently passing by the portholes of their warships in a five-plane formation.The stellar light in the distance shone on the hull of the battleship.In the shadows between the battleships and the battleships, high-flying warplanes resemble a group of vampires from hell.When the four fleets in the west were less than 10,000 kilometers away from the left flank theater, the group of fighters on the left flank had already swept sideways from the Lane fleet in the left flank theater and smashed into the tail of these fleets.The fighter group on the right flank is facing the patrol group of the Western Covenant Formation!
At this moment, not only the officers and soldiers of Lane understood, but even the people of Xiyue immediately understood.Although the raiding Western Fleet quickly adopted the strategy of retreating from the front and expanding the rear to meet the enemy, the driving patrol group of the main formation also tried to rush out to cover it.However, it was too late for them to understand.Before their warship could turn to the thrusters and activate, more than a thousand warplanes on the left and right sides of the Filipino Alliance were already whirring into their formation.Indiscriminate fire.This airspace, like adding fuel to the fire, burst into flames.The fighter plane rolled and swooped in the sky, and the energy cannon in the nose and the missiles under the wing were like lightning that struck the ground from a dark cloud of black pressure.The missile that came from the fire hit the hull with a straight tail, turning into a ball of fire, stabbing people's eyes and not opening them.The energy shield of the Western Covenant battleship was a series of ripples from the fighter's airborne guns!
The fat man's timing is extremely accurate.If there had been a pair of eyes that could see the tactical computers of both sides at the same time, then it would have been possible to see that while Banning's mid-lane fleet ordered a surprise attack, the fat man ordered the 191st and 192nd fleets to move to the left flank.By the time the Banning Central Fleet broke out of the way of the patrol group, the Lane fighters had already left the mothership and were heading for the intended location.Precise calculations allowed the Western fleet to be completely restrained in a series of tactical changes after the raid.So much so that for the entire five minutes of the fighter plane attack, it was in extreme confusion.In the end, when the 191 and 192 fleets cut across to cut off their retreat, only a quarter of the Western warships escaped back to the main position!
This was the first knife swung by the Allied Commander Tian Xingjian in the whole battle!"
Beautiful!"
Fujii Tsuyoshi stared at the Skynet screen and said silently in his heart.He knew that no matter how this battle ended, the fat man who personally commanded all the broken battles and swept the strategic simulation game rankings, just to learn the basic tactics that most commanders didn't even want to look at anymore, would shock the world with his tactical command!
Although the annihilation of the three Western fleets was only the beginning.The battle that follows may be more difficult than expected, but it is also more exciting!
Peel off two more layers of shells, perhaps, a miracle can be created!
………… A large fleet sails along the Mars Free Passage.If a spaceship passed by, it would be strange to see that every warship in this fleet was brand new, apparently just completed.Moreover, there is no known warship model in any country in the world, all of them are warships below the level of heavy destroyers, and their appearance is more like a space submarine without portholes."
General, we've arrived at the Liberty System Hop Point!"
In the flagship command hall, the chief control navigator reported loudly.Chekov, who had been promoted to major general, stood on the command platform, staring at the familiar star field outside the window, and was full of emotion for a while.More than a year ago, he was the captain of a destroyer and was ordered to escort then Vice President Flavio and Admiral Bernadotte of the 6th Army through this jumping point to Chacner.During the voyage, he was forced to deviate from the course and was exiled in the free world due to the robbery and killing of a cruiser and two destroyers of the Western Blockade Fleet, as well as several pirate armed merchant ships.In just one year, he has been transformed into a major general of the Le Ray Federation.A [Blue Rose] has also become the fleet in front of you - a full twenty [Doomsday]-class space carriers full of space fighters, the most powerful space killer in this era!
These twenty [Doomsday]-class space carriers are new ships that only left the dock when the bandits returned to Lelei.Previously, he had been loading space fighters in the Republic of Chakna and training and running-in.Because of the outbreak of the battle in the Twin Star Corridor corridors, the fleet was ordered to urgently move south.However, due to the need for secrecy, the fleet has always been going south along the free shipping lane with split warships.It was only after arriving at the Blue Stone Star that they entered the main channel.Originally, the fleet was supposed to participate in the defensive battle of the jump point in the central star field of Lelei.But just before the departure, Chekov suddenly received an order from the fat man, asking him to lead the fleet through the public galaxy in the north to re-enter the Mars Free Passage after being stationed on the Blue Stone Star for three days, and then follow the old path taken by the [Berlan Rose] to go around the Leray Free System and go to the Leray Central Galaxy.All the people of the fleet did not understand why such a big circle.The only people who understood this were Chekov himself and the other two people standing beside him at the moment.Commander of the 1st Armored Division of the Bandit Army, Rashid.Commander of the 2nd Armored Division of the Bandit Army, Stewart."
All ready, turn off the engine, set the jump coordinates, and count down in five minutes......"
Staring at the pitch-black jump point, Chekov suddenly felt his heart beat faster.He turned his head to look.Beside him, Rashid and Stewart were chatting with a relaxed face.Not far away, Wai Jianshan, Hargrove, Wagstaff, and Monson were leisurely sipping tea.Kozmo, Infantry, Buzz, Weatheril, Monson, Mountbatten, Longtai and other young mecha gods of war are playing poker in a transparent tactics room, and they are very busy.All of them had notes on their faces.Chekov laughed."
Ten seconds countdown......" he ordered."
Ten, nine, eight......"
In the countdown of the main pilot, he looked at the dark void and thought to himself, through this darkness, he would usher in the bright, bright and quiet starry sky of Lelei.
