After announcing the military order, Song Guorui waved his hand, "Su Maoran, the first-level administrator of Munro, embezzled national property, confiscated all property according to the special military control regulations, and shot him on the spot; Su Li and Zhou An, who were lawless and intended to attack the major generals of the Republic, were shot on the spot. All persons involved in the case will be arrested immediately and the vacant officials will be appointed separately!"
Soldiers like wolves and tigers swarmed forward and dragged Su Maoran and others out of the club. Several crisp gunshots were heard in the distance.
Everyone in the club hall remained silent. With the help of the local security department, officials with sad faces were dragged out of the hall from time to time. Soon the crowded hall became quite empty.
Densely packed soldiers with solemn expressions kept the crowd far apart. Yi Lexiang asked Song Guorui in a low voice, "What happened?"
"Pang Hai just received a secret message from the headquarters, and the Kador defense line is in emergency."
"What?" Wu Wei exclaimed.
"What else," Yi Lexiang asked calmly. If Kador was the only one in trouble, the old marshal would not let him take over Munro, and Song Guorui would not cut through the mess quickly to wipe out Munro's instability. . I'm afraid there's other bad news.
"The triangle space gate occupied by an interstellar fleet of the Imperial Alliance!" Song Guorui said with a heavy expression.
"What?" Even Yi Lexiang couldn't hold back the shock in his heart.
The Triangle Domain Space Gate is Munro’s only space door to the outer star domain. If the Empire takes over here, the entire Munro and the resource stars in this star domain will become a caged bird for the Imperial Alliance.
"Are they coming for us?" Yi Lexiang couldn't help but ask.
Wu Wei rolled his eyes at Yi Lexiang, he must have come for you. However, the results for myself and others are the same.
"It's not clear yet! According to the intelligence from the headquarters, the number of this interstellar fleet of the Imperial Alliance appeared at the Kador defense line 10 days ago. The battle situation was very chaotic at that time, and until now, the General Staff still can't figure out how it passed through the defense. A tight interstellar defense line. Currently, they are guarding the space gate on Munro's side. Although the old marshal mobilized two interstellar fleets to attack in turns, it was difficult for the Imperials to open the space gate for a while due to their favorable location."
"What is the enemy's military strength?"
"There are at least two heavy aircraft carrier groups, with no less than sixty warships. The model of the warship is unknown, the number of fighter aircraft is unknown, and the number of marines accompanying the ship is unknown."
"It is simply a fantasy that such a fleet can avoid the detection of the General Staff and penetrate deep into the rear of the Republic." Wu Wei said angrily. Song Guorui and Meng Xujian looked at each other without speaking.
Yi Lexiang didn't seem to hear Wu Wei's complaint, "The enemy will definitely look for a foothold to replenish supplies, and Munro is their best choice. Regardless of whether the enemy is prepared or not, the fact that Munro does not have a strong defense force cannot be concealed. How long. Go back to the fleet immediately and ask Pang Hai to prepare the command room. We will use it soon."
Wu Wei looked around. Almost all of Munro's upper echelons were gathered here. Everyone looked very flustered and uneasy, "What should we do here?"
Yi Lexiang waved to Xiao Xiaofeng, who was outside the guard circle, to come in, "Please come over, Wang Liran, and team leader Jin Shangze. I'm afraid we have another battle."
Xiao Xiaofeng hesitated to speak. She looked a little nervous as she had never experienced a war.
Wang Liran walked up to Yi Lexiang with a complicated expression. First she regarded Yi Lexiang as a villain who was greedy for wealth, and just now she regarded him as a spy for the empire. Wang Liran looked ashamed and a little embarrassed.
"Administrative Officer Wang, Su Maoran brought it upon himself and has been executed. This was originally something worthy of celebration, but unfortunately we have just received information. An interstellar fleet from the Imperial Alliance has occupied the space gate of the Triangular Star Region, and Munro has become a star. Lone Star.”
Wang Liran raised her head in shock, "Is it the front line?" Of course Yi Lexiang knew what Wang Liran was worried about and smiled slightly.
"The Kador defense line is still in our hands. It is just a lone force deep inside the country. But because they occupy the space gate of the Triangular Star Domain, it is difficult for our fleet to break through their blockade for a while. So for the time being, we can only rely on ourselves. ." Yi Lexiang said this with hidden worries. Munro has just experienced a big change, and the top management must have uneasy feelings. So I hope Administrator Wang will take up the role of Munro's top administrator.
“How far will the war go?
Yi Lexiang thought for a moment, "With Munro's current military strength, the possibility of blocking the Empire's interstellar fleet in outer space is almost zero. The final war is likely to take place on Munro's surface as the main battlefield!
Wang Liran was silent and looked gloomy. Once a ground battle begins, it often indicates a large number of civilian casualties.
"This is Commander Jin Sangtaek. He will assist you in maintaining normal order in Munro."
"Major General Yi, what about your safety" Jin Shangze said anxiously.
"Commander Jin, the war is imminent and the situation is critical. I hope you will put the overall situation first."
Jin Shangze nodded in agreement, now is indeed not the time to stick to small details.
Yi Lexiang and others boarded the transport ship and sailed to the interstellar airport in Munro space. The five landing craft at the ground airport also received notification from the fleet, and a battalion of soldiers boarded the ship and returned to the space port. Every soldier is now a valuable asset to the fleet.
Also returning to the airport with Yi Lexiang and others was Commander Li. The series of incidents just now proved that at least he was still a real soldier. Munro's other left-behind commander, Ye Ci, received an urgent order and was also rushing to the space port.
Wang Liran also began to plan the evacuation of people with the assistance of Jin Shangze.
Triangular domain space gate
The several-kilometer-long heavy aircraft carrier "Karstel" is like a city floating in space. Countless interstellar fighters shuttle like bees guarding a hive. Dozens of warships of various types surround the "Karstel".
Not far away, a large number of unmanned combat aircraft and space mines pouring out of the Triangular Domain Space Gate were smashed by intensive artillery fire. From time to time, dazzling lights erupted. The three-dimensional firepower network composed of the Imperial Star Fleet completely blocked the entire space gate.
"General, Charno's attack frequency is getting higher and higher! The fleet's stored energy consumes a lot."
"Raules, don't you think the whole thing is weird? The Charno fleet on the Cardor defense line actually let us pass the tightly defended space fortress defense line, and the Charno fleet chasing us along the way seemed to intend to Let’s rush to the Triangle Star Territory.”
"Is this a trap by the Charno people?"
General Glein, who was nearly 70 years old, laughed dumbly, and a flash of light flashed in his wise eyes. There is an old saying in Charno, "Killing with a borrowed knife." Someone should be trying to use our hands to get rid of someone. Since we entered the Triangle Star Territory, Charno's offensive has suddenly intensified, indicating that that person is in the Triangle Star Territory!
Harsnow thought thoughtfully, "Then our situation is more dangerous? No matter who designed this trap, they will not let us leave alive."
"Huh, not necessarily. As long as we can capture this person alive, the initiative of the war will be in our hands. The key to the problem is that we don't know who our target is at the moment?" General Glein sighed, a look on his face. Showing distress.
‘Light of Victory’, space operations command room.
"The latest news is that a heavy aircraft carrier battle group from the Imperial Alliance has left the space gate and is heading towards Munro."
“Don’t you have detailed information on the enemy’s combat strength yet?”
Pang Hai shook his head with a wry smile. Apart from two ground divisions, Munro had no interstellar fleet at all. The few original defensive forts were also dismantled. The small spacecraft of the space anti-smuggling team cannot stay far away from the airport. The intelligence of the escort fleet mainly comes from the Republic fleet that is constantly attacking the space gate. As soon as he received the news that the imperial fleet had raided the space gate, Pang Hai dispatched a reconnaissance fleet, but no information had been sent back yet.
"This battle can't be fought. Let's just board the ship and leave. The Triangular Star Zone is so big, it's impossible for the Imperial Alliance fleet to find us. These Imperial fleets have no backup and no supplies, so they shouldn't be able to hold on for long." Wu Wei Said bitterly.
"Our fleet still has space, and it is more than enough to carry Munro's two ground divisions. Without the ground guard troops, according to the interstellar convention, the interstellar fleet is not allowed to attack civilians on the ground at will." Song Guorui also agreed with Wu Wei's opinion, the old marshal The warrant clearly stated that Yi Lexiang's safety was the top priority in everything.
Seeing that Yi Lexiang had been silent, Pang Hai asked tentatively, "Major General Yi, what do you think of the current battle situation?"
"I'm wondering why the Imperial Alliance fleet came to the Triangle by chance, and why it was able to successfully occupy the space gate despite heavy siege? Since they broke through the Kador defense line, and our fleet has been chasing behind them, why didn't they wait until They occupied the space gate on one side of the Triangular Star Domain, and Pang Hai received early warning from the headquarters?"
The command room was extremely quiet. Wu Wei and others were thinking about Yi Lexiang's words. There seemed to be an invisible big hand behind all of this. Could it be that the purpose of driving the Imperial people to the Triangle Star Territory was to target Yi Lexiang who was visiting relatives?
"Only those in the headquarters know the itinerary of the escort fleet. They must not only arrange for the defenders of Kador to open a gap, but also arrange the pursuit troops to drive the empire's fleet to the Triangular Star Area step by step. Except for the senior generals of the Republic …”
Wu Wei did not continue, a biting chill filled the command room.
?"Perhaps these Imperial people don't know anything, they are just steel knives in the hands of some people." Meng Xujian said hesitantly. It was certain that someone secretly planned the whole thing. The question is whether the Imperials are being used, or whether the two are one.
"Judging from the current situation, the imperial fleet must have been exploited. Otherwise, they should have rushed to Munro as soon as possible instead of entangled with our rescue fleet in the triangle area." Yi Lexiang analyzed, "But as long as the commander of the Imperial Fleet is not an idiot, he should have figured out the truth of the whole thing by now. For the safety of the entire fleet, he will definitely try every means to force us to appear, and there are tens of millions of people on Munro The ordinary people are the best bargaining chips in his hands!"
Everyone in the command room looked at each other. Munro's situation was even more critical.
