In the deduction hall of the headquarters, there were crowds of people. The strategic group composed of senior staff officers from each military region sat in their respective positions with solemn expressions. The figures of the top military commanders of each military region flashed from time to time on the huge ion screen.
Under the soft milky white light of the huge oval dome roof, Bai Weiqi, Leng Junchen, Ouyang Saiya, Bo Shengguo, Yang Haojun and other high-ranking generals of the Republic of Charno were sitting on the command seat in the center of the deduction hall. Outside is a spotless nano-tactics platform. The staff officers driving the drift platform vehicles aim their recorders at the nano-tactics platform from time to time. The technical officers are nervously debugging various equipment. The entire floor of the 1,500-square-meter deduction hall is A huge tactical simulation map with complex military symbols representing various arms flashing constantly.
Today, the tactical assessment of the newly formed task force is about to be held in the deduction hall. Twelve military commanders recommended by each military region and faction are waiting for the final order from the assessment team.
In order to ensure the fairness and impartiality of the assessment, the assessment is divided into two parts. The first part is an interstellar melee in which the twelve candidates participate, and the second part is to complete the tactical confrontation with the strategic team.
This extraordinary tactical simulation has attracted the attention of the entire Charno military. After the simulation, one of the twelve chosen people will become the commander of the interstellar fleet commanding millions of troops and shocking one side. Although the assessment has not yet begun, the tense atmosphere in the deduction hall is weighing heavily on everyone's hearts, just like the tranquility on the eve of a war.
Since the formation of the Starfleet, Charno has maintained a scale of eight Starfleets, each of which is served by the top military officers of the eight major military regions. Since the outbreak of the Patriotic War, local fleets and garrison fleets have suffered heavy casualties, and the main forces of the eight main star fleets have also been weakened to a certain extent. The newly established special starship fleet composed entirely of the latest warships will become the most powerful interstellar main fleet in the entire Charno. In other words, whoever ascends to the position of starship commander will instantly become one of the most powerful figures in Charno. No wonder the bosses of each faction attach so much importance to such a selection assessment.
? ?In the lounge, Yi Lexiang, Wu Wei, Meng Xujian and others were chatting easily. Compared with other candidates' staff groups of 20 to 30 people, Yi Lexiang's staff is undoubtedly very thin and worrying. However, there was no trace of any nervousness on the faces of everyone. From the first day when Yi Lexiang led the army, almost all the strategic decisions that turned the world around were made by him alone. Everyone has become accustomed to this kind of unconventional military strategy. Decision-making architecture.
Following the order of Marshal Bai Qiwei, the commander-in-chief of the tactical deduction observation group, the twelve candidates and their staff filed into the deduction hall. Huang Sifei, Ye Bo, Shangguan Xiong, Yang Zijun, and Yi Lexiang's familiar faces appeared in front of him. It was obvious that the big guys in the military and political circles did not follow any principles of fairness and justice when recommending candidates, and prioritized those closest to him. people.
Even though the old marshal already knew the list of candidates, he couldn't help but frown when he saw a few familiar yet immature faces. He knew the tactical level of these young people very well. Compared with Yi Lexiang who had achieved a series of miraculous victories, they were incomparable. I am afraid that it was the staff behind these young people who actually commanded the battle. . Otherwise, just based on their tactical level, they would not be qualified to be commanders of task forces, even to serve as tactical commanders of a small starship force.
The Starfleet trainees in the viewing gallery couldn't help but exclaimed when they saw Yi Lexiang, who was wearing a military uniform and the rank of major general. Except for Wu Mei and Ouyang Ya, who were calm and composed and had already guessed Yi Lexiang's identity, almost everyone opened their mouths in surprise. Only then did they realize that Mu Yi, who had been with them and others day and night for six months, was actually their hero, and the heavy fog that shrouded Yi Lexiang completely dissipated.
Zhang Hui looked at Yi Lexiang who was standing in the center of the deduction hall and secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. No wonder Wu Wei and Mu Yi were familiar with each other during the party. No wonder "Thunder and Lightning" appeared suddenly. It was all just because of him and others. "Mu Yi", who had no background in his eyes, turned out to be Major General Yi Lexiang, the "Light of Victory" who had won the great victory in Orite and was the hero in the hearts of the people. Recalling that he actually wanted to teach the opponent a lesson in the combat department, Zhang Hui couldn't help but sweat secretly at his audacity.
"Everyone, I don't need to tell you what this simulation test means to you and the entire Charno. Everyone should understand it. When the test is over, one of you will become the commander of a special interstellar fleet." Old Marshal Bai Weiqi stood up, his face solemn and solemn, no longer as kind as usual. The silver hair and wrinkled face not only did not give people an old feeling, but revealed the unique strength of a soldier.
There was silence in the deduction hall. This lifelong soldier has dedicated his life to the motherland.At this moment, the man was like a standing "god of war". Every look he looked at the old marshal was full of respect and admiration, including his "enemies".
"What does this mean? Maybe some people will think my question is naive or even ridiculous. Maybe some people will say that becoming the commander of the task force means that from now on, he will have a large number of troops and dominate the party, and it means reaching the sky in one step. Become a dignitary of the Republic!" At this point, Marshal Bai Weiqi paused for a moment and slowly swept his eyes across the hall.
"However, I want to say that such an idea is completely wrong. If anyone thinks so, then you are not worthy of being the commander of this interstellar fleet!" The old marshal's decisive voice echoed in the hall, and everyone's faces were filled with confusion. A thoughtful expression appeared.
"Then what is the answer? In my mind, becoming a starship commander represents the country's trust in you; it represents the hundreds of millions of people in Charno who entrust their destiny to your hands; it represents the future You are responsible for the lives of millions of soldiers under your command; this means that in the near future you will embark on a journey to fight bloody battles for the motherland, for the people, for the freedom of Charno, and for the six thousand years of Charno heritage, even if you give up your own life. No matter what! Only in this way can you be worthy of the military uniform you are wearing, you are a qualified soldier, and you are a true Charno man!" Before the old marshal finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted in the hall. , the crowd in the viewing gallery stood up suddenly, and applauded continuously for a long time. Everyone's face was filled with excitement and excitement.
These words of the old marshal are not only an explanation of the significance of the existence of soldiers, but also a summary of the old marshal's life. Perhaps it is this lofty and great thought that gives Bai Weiqi such high prestige in the eyes of the people and makes him a powerful "military god" in the interstellar world.
Twelve interstellar fleets of similar strength, controlled by twelve candidates, moved slowly in twelve completely sealed tactical deduction rooms, and the first interstellar melee for assessment began.
On the oval-shaped sky dome in the deduction hall, twelve huge ion screens clearly displayed the tactical operations of each candidate, and complex military symbols representing various services were slowly moving on the ground. At the beginning of the deduction, the interstellar exploration fleets of Yang Zijun, Ye Bo and others sailed towards the star field where Yi Lexiang was located. Obviously, most people regarded this young major general with outstanding records as an imaginary enemy and wanted to kill Yi Lexiang as soon as possible. Xiang kicked out.
Ouyang Ya looked at the deployment displayed on the tactical map and was secretly worried. Wu Mei, who was sitting with her, had already shouted angrily, "This is not fair. There are only twelve people in total, and now there are seven people targeting Yi Lexiang. How can someone beat me?" Her delicate little hands tightly grasped Ouyang Ya's arm. Feeling the pain, Ouyang Ya had to open Wu Mei's little hand, "Can you please stop yelling? The simulated star field space is so big. , there is more than enough strategic room for maneuver, A Xiang will not fight with them head-on." Ouyang Ya said angrily while rubbing her arms, Wu Mei stuck out her tongue in embarrassment, "I am worried."
In the closed deduction room, Yi Lexiang could not see the military actions of other candidates, but he imagined that others would definitely regard him as an imaginary enemy. At least Ye Bo, Shangguan Xiong and other Starship Academy students would probably not let him go. For the first time, Wu Wei, Meng Xujian, Pang Hai, and Song Guorui each led a starship to escape into the vast star space. The viewing gallery was in an uproar. Before the battle even started, Yi Lexiang's decision to divide the Star Fleet into five aroused many questions.
Starship combat is different from ground combat. The more battleships there are, the greater the tactical survival space will be. Only when a large number of warships gather together can they ensure enough firepower to tear open the enemy warship's defense cover and cause a direct strike. Similarly, constantly moving warships according to different space formations, moving starships that have been hit hard by the enemy to the inner layer to restore the weakened protective shield, and improving the survival probability of warships are also tactical arrangements recognized by interstellar tactics.
If the interstellar fleet is divided into several small fleets like Yi Lexiang, once it encounters the enemy's main fleet, the small fleet with insufficient firepower will not be able to break through the opponent's protective shield. Facing the enemy's intensive firepower, the energy index of the protective shield will be insufficient. It simply cannot withstand a few blows. Doing so will undoubtedly destroy the Great Wall.
Mu Shaoqing, who was sitting in the observation seat, whispered to Chen Huan, who was paying close attention to Yi Lexiang's military deployment: "Can you see it? What tricks is this kid up to?" Chen Huan shook his head angrily, "I can't see it. You have also participated in the simulation exercises in the past few months. Every time Yi Lexiang's tactical arrangements are as unconstrained as they are without any traces. Until the last moment, you have no idea what he is going to do. There is no trace of Yi Lexiang's tactics in this simulation. It is a rigid rule that the person who persists to the end is the winner. He is like a fish in water, and there is no way to judge what he will do!"
