Walk alone in the abyss

Lieutenant General Thomas was a good teacher.

He really has something, and he will really teach those around him.

Yang Ming has already commanded fleet battles of 'medium level' scale.

——He led less than a hundred Dark Star 'old' ships, and killed seven in and seven out in the Free Kingdom of Nonar.

But that's a regular nursing-grade aid.

Law is different from ordinary shipboard super masterminds. Her reaction speed and control over the ship far exceed the command systems used by the imperial fleet at all levels.

It was almost Yang Ming who gave an order verbally, and within a few tenths of a second, Lu controlled the entire fleet and began to execute the task.

But this is not 'regular assistance'.

Because of human beings' vigilance against the omnic crisis and the importance of the ship's control system, the shipboard super mastermind has been removed from the logic chain that can generate self-awareness. They can summarize massive amounts of information on the battlefield, construct a three-dimensional structural diagram for the commander's reference, and convey the information to the commanders of each ship in a very short time according to the commander's instructions on the structural diagram. The operator of each system of the ship independently completes the next step of control.

It is human beings who give orders, and it is human beings who carry out orders.

This is the fleet command system that human civilization can accept.

When the empire's whole-territory defense system is activated, it will integrate the computing power of all imperial ships in the war space, replace the position of the commander-in-chief, and forcibly connect the masterminds of all warships as a whole, giving operators sufficiently simplified instructions (press the first number button).

Machines issue orders, and humans execute orders.

The reason why the Dark Star Fleet is more efficient is that the above relationship is just the opposite.

The combination of Yang Ming and Lu exploited the loophole of the accompanying mechanical thinking body, and the law itself should not be a creation that can be created by a civilization below the fifth level.

Therefore, Yang Ming felt that it was very necessary for him to take this opportunity to supplement the professional knowledge of battleship group command.

Yang Ming will not bet all on the empire, nor on the developing Luofeng, and of course he will not bet all on the dark star and the mechanical thinking body, what he wants is three legs …Um, cough, walking on two legs.

After the first battle, Lieutenant General Thomas held a general-level officer summary video conference as usual.

At the meeting, Lieutenant General Thomas specifically selected Yang Ming, the 'coach', to speak.

Yang Ming, who was sitting in the main seat, expressed his thoughts on the command of the battleship cautiously and calmly. These generals also liked Boss Yang very much, so they applauded and encouraged him together.

Yang Ming: ...

In this atmosphere, there is always a sense of sight of a village committee cadre meeting.

When the war started, the interstellar public opinion became violently turbulent, and the diplomatic wrestling between countries officially began.

Contrary to the lazy attitude of the last expedition, various departments of the empire started a joint attack on the new federation in various fields.

Economic confrontation, cutting off foreign resources, tit for tat in international organizations;

There was even an 'indecent' incident in which two delegations fought in public meetings.

In the first week of the war, a large-scale army of the empire jumped into the border of the new federation, repelled dozens of counterattacks of the new federation's "pretentious" style, controlled the twelve stars on this border, and achieved the first step of the established goal.

This is just the beginning.

Immediately afterwards, the empire slowed down its offensive speed, adopted harassing tactics, and used the twelve stars as a springboard to radiate one-third of the new federal territory.

In the next half month, the Empire used a small fleet to sneak attack on the New Federation's transport fleet, dispatched nearly 10,000 ships in total, lost more than 120 ships of various types, and destroyed more than 30 New Federation's main warships , more than 230 transport ships of different specifications, and more than 100 frigates of various types, which significantly curbed the resource supply of the new federal main fleet.

The harassment tactics of the Imperial Army have achieved fairly good results.

At this moment, the confrontation between the two sides has emerged.

With the twelve new federal administrative stars and nearly 1.6 billion people as bargaining chips, the empire waited for the main army of the new federation to advance to a decisive battle, and made a gesture of rushing into the hinterland of the new federation territory at any time.

At this time, the new Federation was under tremendous political pressure.

The empire suffered a lot of infamy, but the empire didn't care at all.

Even, the empire voluntarily released all kinds of tragedies that happened on the twelve stars-the supply of living materials was cut off, energy was cut off, resource reserves were emptied, and various problems appeared in the living environment of the people.

The scope of the new federation affected by the war is already boiling with public dissatisfaction;

How can the citizens of the New Federation, who have been living in an atmosphere of democratic superiority, endure such continuous insults?

The slogans of decisive battle, promotion of war, and driving the invaders away from the border have become the hottest terms in the network of various divisions in the new federation.

Fortunately, their network model has played a role again, and those planets in the rear that are not threatened can still whitewash the peace.

Yang Ming also discovered a very interesting phenomenon.

International human rights organizations demanded on-the-spot monitoring of the empire-occupied areas, and the empire opened its doors and fully cooperated.

The Imperial Army has strict discipline, and even the second-line troops who went to carry out the 'Plunder Order' did not do anything out of the ordinary, and fully respected the human rights of the residents in the occupied areas.

Imperial soldiers can even do it, fight back if they don't curse, or fight back.

This made Yang Ming very emotional.

Look, the personal qualities of soldiers in this interstellar era!

In his hometown, the imperialist soldiers of the Baga Oyesmida family made some negative news every day to ruin the hard work of their intelligence navy.

However, shortage of food and shortage of drinking water resources are the unchangeable and deteriorating problems of these planets.

A spokesperson for the Empire publicly stated:

The power transmission lines and energy station equipment on Twelve Stars had been destroyed by the New Federation army before the New Federation army retreated, and all responsibilities belonged to the New Federation. The empire has no obligation to support these new federal residents. Unless the new federal residents obtain the residence permit of the empire, the empire will fully let these residents feel the benevolence of His Majesty the Great Emperor.

In response, the Interstellar Human Rights Investigation Committee and a group of non-profit organizations funded by the New Federation tried to provide resources for the twelve stars.

However, they were soon harassed by some "interstellar pirates". Not only were the supplies lost, but the ships and people were also gone.

In the name of suppressing pirates, the empire completely blocked the route of the twelve stars.

After this set of imperial hegemony was defeated, a large number of residents of the Twelve Stars began to apply for imperial household registration.

Yang Ming was very busy during this time, he was busy studying while also participating in some interview programs.

With the guidance of a famous general like Thomas, Yang Ming had a fairly intuitive understanding of large-scale ship warfare in the Milky Way, learned a lot of tactics and combat skills, and also had the most basic concept of 'synchronization of all ships'.

However, Lieutenant General Thomas was very cautious, even if it was a small conflict, he did not let Yang Ming fight.

There is no way, Yang Ming is only a nominal coach, and the military department has extremely strict military discipline.

Time passed day by day, and the first large-scale confrontation between the Imperial Expeditionary Force and the New Federation Main Fleet seemed to be getting closer.

On the forty-sixth standard galactic day after the start of the war, the president of the new federation delivered a speech that lasted for three galaxies, announcing that the new federation would immediately enter the stage of "full combat readiness" and conduct a "justice" battle with the Sherman Empire. contest.

After the speech, 70% of the polities in the galaxy condemned the invasion of the Sherman Empire to varying degrees.

The Güell Alliance officially dispatched an interstellar mercenary corps to enter the territory of the New Federation to 'protect' the safety of the New Federation's logistics channel and ensure the stable life of ordinary people.

The United States of Freedom has not sent troops directly, but they have voluntarily disclosed the production orders of 62 military factories. In the next year, they will all serve the new federal military department.

In the top four of the Galaxy, the two were torn apart, and the two made money. Other medium and large countries also followed suit, and then uniformly condemned the Sherman Empire, which was the first to attack.

Another half month later, in the vast deep sky behind the occupied twelve stars, 12,000 ships of various types from the Empire and 16,000 ships from the New Federation officially launched a confrontation.

A big war could break out at any time.

The New Federation decided to fight to the death and gathered twelve "Eye of Deep Space" dreadnought ships, four of which were old-fashioned dreadnought ships that were sealed up as strategic resources.

The empire seems to be at a disadvantage in terms of military strength, with only eight dreadnoughts on the front line.

The situation on the front line is getting tense.

The empire has amassed a large number of ambushes near the Twelve Stars. Thousands of warships from the Emperor Star Core Fleet are trying to become a sharp ax that falls on the neck of the new Federation's main fleet.

Premonitioning that a big battle was coming, Yang Ming also stopped the so-called propaganda, and followed Lieutenant General Thomas every day, feeling the powerful oppression brought about by the highest-level war in the galaxy.

It's quite enjoyable.

...

The encirclement around itself is self-defeating, and the powerful empire and the new federation are about to wage a high-intensity war.

Luofeng has indeed ushered in a golden period of development recently.

Because of Yang Ming's 'assassination in one pot' incident, which triggered a decisive battle between the two great powers, the news of the expansion of the Luofeng Alliance has become a small news event.

The high-quality capital flowing out of the New Federation and the Sherman Empire, as well as the continuous supply of resources from the Nonar United Kingdom, have become the new driving force for Luofeng's economic development.

Under the pull of these two space carriages, the entire area of ​​Luofeng showed a vigorous development trend.

The rise of Luofeng has become the dream of every Luofeng heart.

This is only on the surface.

Secretly, in order to open up the relationship between the Luofeng Alliance and the United Kingdom of Nonar, Lu took advantage of the opportunity of his boss to go to the Imperial Expeditionary Army to study, and began to focus on managing and attacking several small countries between the two.

The mechanical thinking body combined with high-fidelity robots to replace the political and military leaders of those small countries is already the killer of the Dark Star system.

Although objectively speaking, the replacement of omnic power can usually trigger the highest level of omnic crisis;

But the law firmly believes that there is a fundamental difference between the mechanical thinking body and the omnipotence of the current stage of human civilization in the galaxy.

What's more, every political-level mechanical thinking body is equipped with a one-button headshot system, and the detonation button is in the hands of Yang Ming and Lu.

Now, Lu and Luofeng only need to wait for an opportunity.

Far away in the airspace of other galactic spiral arms, a battleship group with a total of 30,000 ships is confronting;

The Sherman Empire and the New Federation are about to usher in their first major battle.

As a result of this battle, if the Sherman Empire wins, then Luofeng must control his expansion intentions and push back the expansion of the alliance.

However, if the Sherman Empire wins a small victory, wins a lot, or even loses this game for the first time, then the Luofeng Alliance can expand outward immediately.

The latest contracts for the joining of the five small countries are already in the corner of Edwan's desk.

This time they have learned their lesson and will use the method of public announcement instead of any signing ceremony.

"Your Majesty, it's time for you to rest."

Miss Gui Na's gentle reminder sounded from the side.

"Um."

Edwan raised his head and moved his neck a few times, stopped reviewing the documents, and leaned back in the seat.

Gui Na took the initiative to move forward to help Edwan massage his sore and swollen cervical spine.

Edwan asked suddenly: "Is your boss going well?"

"Smoothly," Gui Na said softly, her long hair hanging down on her left and right sides, "Boss is in a pretty good environment now, and the aftermath of the previous incident of Emperor Xing insulting the Emperor has subsided. Although the Emperor doesn't want to see him yet." Our boss, but the royal family who controls all kinds of resources of the empire treats the boss pretty well."

Edwan asked strangely, "How did you do this?"

"The goddess complained that the boss betrayed his sexy body."

"Wow," Edwan clicked his tongue. "This should be just a joke. I know Yang Ming. Unless the other party is a very beautiful girl, he will definitely not give up his body."

"You guessed it."

"Or Her Royal Highness Daphne?"

"Yes."

"This Highness is actually a nice person," Edwan said in a low voice. "It is said that she has never had a boyfriend. She is a rare chaste princess in the empire, and now she has become a singer of the empire."

Gui Na smiled and said, "The boss still likes the type of Captain Catherine, who has a full sense of justice."

When they are in physical contact and chatting, the voice will not spread around the two of them. This is a new technology used in Gui Na's Terminator 1 fuselage.

Edwin sighed slowly.

He asked softly: "Actually, I have always had a question, Guina, can you answer it for me?"

"Your Majesty, you said, I will comprehensively judge the authority needed to answer your doubts."

"He, why didn't you just replace me?" Edwan asked in a low voice.

Gui Na pondered endlessly.

Edwan whispered: "In fact, I can probably guess that Ming is making a very dangerous attempt to use mechanical civilization to establish his own power. Mechanical civilization can spread wildly in a very short period of time. Now I don't know , What a powerful force he has... I am really important in his system, Gui Na, Luofeng is the external cover of his secret base, and I know too many of his secrets... He replaces I should be the top priority."

"It can only be said that the mutual trust between human beings is a very strange emotion."

Gui Na smiled and said:

"You may not know that in our system, as long as you exist in accordance with the boss' will, you will know that you are the boss' partner and best partner.

"Then let me ask you a question. Why, as the emperor of the Luofeng Empire, can you tolerate the entire military strength of the Luofeng Empire being controlled by my boss?"

Edwan said seriously: "Do you think Ming will betray me? He even has countless opportunities to be the emperor of this country by himself."

"Look, don't you have an answer?"

Edwan laughed dumbfoundedly.

"This guy, I hope one day in the future, I can also call him... Boss. This title is really tacky."

Gui Na smiled without saying a word.

In fact, they all use 'father' to address the boss.

Gui Na paused her kneading movements, and said in a low voice: "The latest news on the battlefield, half a minute ago, the entire New Federation army began to press forward."

"War is on! Is there a live broadcast over the empire?"

"No, Your Majesty, this time the empire is fighting in a war of extermination."

"Oh, this is excruciating."

Edwan put those contracts in front of him, and exhaled lightly.

He can only wait.

...

at the same time.

The first star of the Güell Alliance, the underground defense tower, and the temporary office of the Alliance Prime Minister with elegant decoration and simple style.

The grey-haired head of the fourth most powerful country in the Milky Way is sitting quietly behind his desk at the moment, and he can read some text broadcasts when he lowers his head.

The new federation took the initiative.

The first large-scale confrontation between the two great powers in this war has already been staged.

What is she going to do?

What else can she do?

Out of national interest considerations, she has made a series of preparations.

The new federation cannot fall, otherwise they will face the plunder of the imperial fleet, so it is in the national interest to support the new federation from the military industry and directly increase the strength of the new federation in the form of mercenaries.

But she can only go so far.

Pull all the capital ships to the new federation, serve as pawns for the new federation, and fight the empire...that's what a fool would do.

For them, the simultaneous decline of the New Federation and the Sherman Empire is the most perfect situation.

Of course, that possibility is very, very low.

Now we can only wait for the results.

No matter how much the politicians outside the battlefield do, they can't change the result of the fighting between the soldiers on both sides. The only thing we can hope for now is that there is a real problem with the empire's defense system throughout the territory...

Boom boom boom boom!

The drawer in the lower left corner of the desk suddenly trembled continuously.

Madam Prime Minister's expression became more and more dignified, and she looked down at where the drawer was.

Every prime minister will have a series of "teaching" when he takes office, and this empty drawer will be regarded as the most important thing, and the previous prime minister will tell the next prime minister.

She hadn't opened the drawer for two years, but now, at this crucial moment, it moved.

The Prime Minister exhaled lightly, lowered his head, leaned into his body, and seemingly inadvertently opened the drawer, revealing the reversed ordinary printing paper inside.

She took out the paper and placed it in front of her. The common language of the galaxy began to appear on it. Lines appeared and lines disappeared, and the content was very clear.

The Prime Minister subconsciously clenched her hands, her expression a little dignified, but she didn't dare to delay any longer, and immediately picked up the dedicated line communicator beside her.

"Commander, the sixth set of plans, the main fleet jumps, we must join the war."

"But Prime Minister, are we going to dispatch now? Even if we want to fight, shouldn't we wait until the war is almost over before dispatching..."

"I'm jumping now, and I won't be able to reach the battlefield in half an hour. This time should be just right. Please follow what I said immediately. The Military Federation should have received the same instruction, and execute it immediately!"

"Yes, I just received the order... I obeyed the order! There are correspondents! All main fleets jump to the first target area! Get ready to enter the battlefield!"
