Chapter 1656 1658long sword refers toAlmost dropped the ruler in his hand to the ground, a fleet staff officer of the Imperial Family Guards fleet gnashing Teeth scolded: "Isn't this a joke? Send this thing to us, what is he trying to do?"
"Pay attention to your words! That's the marshal of the empire!" Another staff officer Some resentment reminded.
"But! Don't you think the Marshal's arrangement is too much?" Although the staff officer suppressed his emotions, he still questioned with dissatisfaction.
Another staff officer stood beside the map table and pointed at the map with great dissatisfaction: "It is clear that he hopes that the Imperial Family Guards fleet can cut into the battlefield and act as his reserve."
>According to the news just arrived, the 1st Fleet of the Alanhill Empire, under the command of Laurence, was all over the line and entangled with the attacking enemy.
The number of troops invested by the watchers at this time was much greater than before, so the 1st Fleet had to overwhelm all of its reserves.
The incident happened suddenly, although the frontline command was aware of it, it still allowed the guards to seize the opportunity.
Among the fleets of the Alanhill Empire, the 12th, 15th and 17th fleets were supported to Higgs 11, and the 5th and 6th fleets had been operating near Higgs 4, supporting Theirs are several other fleets.
In order to ensure safety in other directions, Laurens sent all the fleets that could be dispatched to other defensive lines to defend against possible enemy attacks.
But at this time, the enemy chose to be on the front, and the defense line he personally stationed began to attack!
The frontal line of defense is actually heavily armed, just the first-line Combat Unit, including the first and second main fleets.
At this moment, General Bakarov's fleet has also been ordered to press on, and started a fierce attack on the enemy's flank.
The two sides fought hard for a while, because the Alanhill Imperial Fleet voluntarily gave up the space near the Higgs 3 planet, so it was closer to its own logistics node, and it was more convenient to replenish and repair.
In this way, the defensive combat pressure on the ground has doubled, and the frontal offensive pressure of the enemy fleet has not weakened.
This means that the target of the Warden Fleet Commander's campaign is not, or not just Higgs 3, their target is likely to directly penetrate the frontal Alanhill Empire 1st Fleet!
Because once they penetrated the frontal defense line of the Alanhill Empire, they would have the opportunity to devour the entire 1st Fleet, and then tear open the frontal line of the Alanhill Empire defense line, with a width of tens of millions of kilometers!
Once this plan is successful, the defense line of the Higgs region will collapse in an instant. At that time, the planets behind them are all fat on the chopping block of the guards!
The staff of the Guards fleet must all aim to ensure the personal safety of Emperor Your Majesty, so it's not good to see how Laurence's decision is made.
Therefore, the head of the chief of staff had a very ugly expression, and said coldly: "Nonsense! The Imperial Family fleet is a fleet that guarantees the absolute safety of Your Majesty! Even the 1st fleet is completely wiped out! There is no reason to transfer the Imperial Family Guards fleet to the front line!"
Although he is only an admiral, he is not affiliated with the Marshal of the Space Army, Laurens. He was a general directly appointed by the Imperial Family and was not responsible to anyone other than the emperor.
This is also the main reason why Laurens did not ask for it, and directly stated the carriage and horse, forcing the Imperial Family fleet to move forward.
He does not have any authority to command and deploy the fleets belonging to the Imperial Family. This is the rule of the Alanhill Empire - the Imperial Family fleet, only the emperor has the right to dispatch!
So Laurens can only transmit the battle report to Chris, and then the rest is left to fate.
If Chris comes, then Chris is a qualified monarch, and this battle will still be fought.
If Chris timidly backs down, Laurens would consider himself unlucky and mistaken for an unqualified monarch. when the time comes to lose everything is nothing more than repaying the country with death.
It is precisely because of this that Laurens made such a choice, so that the staff in front of him hated him with gnashing teeth.
"But are we really watching the First Fleet collapse like this? They really overwhelmed the entire army!" A young staff officer looked at his colleagues and said weakly. asked.
Hearing this weak question, the staff officer who was the first to speak became even more ugly: "That's why! I said that he was just making a fool of yourself! No matter whether you win or lose this battle! His sin! Laurens is guilty!"
"You all think...I shouldn't have put my fleet on the battlefield?" Chris asked, standing by the map table, staring at the battlefield in front of him. road.
The chief of staff of the Imperial Family fleet reminded: "Your Majesty! Laurens is... this is using his fleet as a bargaining chip to force you to take risks!"
It is his duty to warn the Emperor of the risks of Your Majesty entering the battlefield at times like these - even if it's only a small risk, and he must do everything in his power to prevent the Emperor from making a dangerous choice.
The Imperial Family fleet, which is huge in number, well-armed, and powerfully staffed, exists to protect the emperor and keep the emperor absolutely safe!
Chris didn't look up, just listened to the ever-changing battlefield, and asked his chief of staff, "So, if I let you take command, what are you going to do in the face of an enemy attack on this scale? "
"I..." The chief of staff, who was nearly 60 years old, instinctively wanted to answer this question, but was stunned for a moment. He really couldn't find a more reasonable solution for a while, so he could only lower his head and hurriedly search for a breakthrough on the battlefield.
"Retreat? Give up most of the Higgs area and retreat all the way to us? What's the difference between that and letting us go?"
"Or, he stayed where he was. , send me a telegram and ask me to immediately retreat with someone? Get out of here?" Chris looked towards the other party, no special expression on his face.
Hearing Chris' question, the Old General was even more embarrassed. He wanted to explain, but couldn't find any suitable words for a while: "This..."
Chris didn't He was given a chance to answer, and then he asked again: "Or, he stayed on the front line, coexisted and died with the Higgs 3, and sacrificed his life to become the first marshal to die in battle in the history of the Empire?"
"Your Majesty..." The Old General was even more blushed with shame, lowered his head, and called out in a pleading tone.
Chris looked towards all the staff and explained to Laurens: "He has no choice at all! Or, now, it is the best choice!"
He laughed, then said to everyone, "So, there's nothing to blame!"
While speaking, he patted the shoulder of his fleet chief of staff to signal him not to be nervous: "No The problem! Now we are discussing the battle, don't think about other problems!"
After finishing speaking, he faced everyone again: "If, I will be concerned about my own safety, and then give up the entire first 1 If the fleet escapes alone, then I am not a qualified emperor! And if I am unwilling to give up the capital of my Imperial Family fleet and die, then I am not worthy of being the monarch of Laurence!"
After a short pause, he said firmly: "Because of this, I have only one choice! For Alanhill! All troops strike! Press forward!"
"Yes!" Everyone had nothing to say but raised their chins in response to the order of His Majesty. They are the Imperial Family Guards and can only stand with the Emperor!
When the emperor advances, they are the emperor's spear; when the emperor stops, they are the emperor's shield... Until the last of them die, the emperor Your Majesty is absolutely safe!
Chris looked towards the steward to the side again: "Luther! Tell Carl, start the planet engine, Supreme Unity will change its orbit and follow the fleet!"
"Yes!...Your Majesty!" Although Luther hesitated, he finally lowered his head and responded to Chris's order.
On the bridge of another huge and invincible Level 2 battleship not far from the flagship of the Sacred, a general stood with his hands behind his back, standing in his command position, and issued an order loudly: "All ready for battle! Your Majesty order! Move forward in 5 minutes! Enter the Higgs 3 battlefield!"
An officer hurries past busy power on another battleship In the room, loudly reminding all the personnel working in it: "Get ready for battle!"
Farther away, the captain of a battleship averted his gaze from the communication screen and grabbed his attention. The phone next to him gave a solemn order: "Ring the battle alarm!"
In the narrow corridor, above the heads of the scattered soldiers rushing past, the red lights kept flashing. .
Accompanied by the flashing red lights, there is a nervous tone in the broadcasting equipment: "All personnel wear protective clothing! Check oxygen equipment and pressure equipment!"
"Attention All personnel return to combat positions immediately! Attention!" As one battleship after another began to enter a state of combat readiness, a series of beeps began to sound inside the farther battleships.
On the bridge as huge as a mountain of the Sacred Battleship, the captain held his head high and gave a loud order: "For Alanhill! Course 135! The main thrusters are fired and activated!"
"Course 135! Speed 900!" The helmsman repeated his captain's order loudly: "Long live Alanhill!"
"Send this message to the whole army!" The captain continued to the communications officer Ordered.
"Yes!" The communications officer took the message and immediately entered it into the transmission device.
Soon, all battleships received a pre-war mobilization message from the Imperial Family Guards Fleet Flagship Commander, who is also the Imperial Family Guards Fleet Commander: My emperor's long sword refers, our soldiers The direction of the front!
"Long live the emperor! What Your Majesty long sword points to! I'll wait for the direction of the soldiers!" After receiving the telegram, a captain clenched his fists and waved his arms loudly to encourage his men. Said: "Alanhill is invincible!"
"Alanhill is invincible!" Inside the bridge, all the officers and soldiers shouted excitedly.
"Revise the course 135! Defend the flagship of the Sacred! Keep the course! Speed 900! Forward! Forward!" Looking at the countless battleships in front of him, the captain on the other bridge also pinched Tightening the telegram paper in his hand: "I will wait to clear all the enemies for the Emperor Your Majesty!"
In his eyes, the rear thrusters of the battleships lit up even more dazzlingly. of light. Battleship after battleship began to move slowly forward, and the main guns of battleship after battleship were energized and raised slightly.
The fleet was originally moving. It can be seen that the battleships are moving slowly, indicating that some battleships have begun to accelerate slightly. This is a somewhat surprising performance of the start-up time of each battleship's main engine. Soon the fleet coordination computer will help coordinate each battleship to ensure speed coordination.
Just as the entire fleet began to circle out of the huge star in front of him and was about to go out to the space near the Higgs 3 planet, Chris's transport spaceship opened the hatch.
"Long live the emperor!" The officers, technicians and engineers who had long been waiting outside the cabin saluted. With Shanhu's slogan, Chris stepped out of his transport spaceship.
He waved his hand slightly, indicating that everyone should not be so restrained, and then walked forward with Carl and the chief engineer in charge of the Supreme Unity project.
"How's Supreme Unity going?"
"Your Majesty, the experiment can be launched at any time...but launching Supreme Unity...isn't it too hasty..." Carl He lowered his head slightly and tried to explain the danger.
Chris continued to walk forward, and said without looking back: "It's too late to experiment! It's enough to go straight to the actual combat! I'm fine, as long as Supreme Unity doesn't have any problems!"
"Your Majesty! I'm afraid there is something wrong with Supreme Unity!" The old engineer said at this time: "Although the mathematical model calculated by Mr. Sandy should be correct...but..."
"But what? If it's true, don't be afraid!" Chris begins. "And we don't have time to waste here."
"What?" Carl doesn't know yet The battle situation on the front line raised his head slightly in astonishment, wanting to look at Luther on the side.
However, before he could look towards Luther, Chris solved his doubts: "The guards are dispatched this time! They want a battle to conquer the world!"
Just as the Imperial Family Guards fleet was leaving, Chris received messages from several directions.
Higgs 4, Higgs 11, the border of Dothan, the border of Arrant... There are a large number of watcher fleets!
At this time, the scale of the guard's full-scale attack is larger than what Laurens had guessed before and what the high-level officials of the Alanhill Empire had expected!
"Let Supreme Unity's escort fleet follow the Imperial Family Guards fleet! Arrive at the left of the Imperial Family Guards fleet! Prepare to meet the incoming enemy!" Chris waved his hand and began to dispatch troops : "Let the Imperial Family 2nd Guards Fleet, resting near Higgs 1, set off immediately and move closer to me!"
