Interstellar Super Empire

Chapter 175 Heroes and Rumors
A total of eight warships were bombarded by the "Mars" one by one.

The eyes of Tianhai and the others looked straight. Eight "Wushan-class" battleships were enough to form a large fleet.Even if the opponent's commander had his head pinched by the steel gate, he wouldn't have sent battleships over to die like this.

In order to prevent the explosion from spreading to the jump point, Zhong Yun always waited for the opponent to fly a certain distance before ordering the launch. The enemy warship had enough time to send a message to the other side of the jump point.

Why did the commander over there be so persistent in sending the battleship over to die?Could it be that Hong Xian's national power is strong enough to use the "Wushan-class" warships as cannon fodder?

When the eighth battleship enemy ship was destroyed, no battleship appeared at the jump point.The other party finally stopped this stupid move to die.

After waiting for about three or ten minutes, Zhong Yun's expression relaxed, and a slender hand stretched out to help him wipe his forehead with a towel.Just now his nerves were tense, and his forehead was covered with sweat.

He turned his head and smiled softly at Liu Yunqi.

"Captain No. [-] requests communication." The system's voice sounded.

Liu Yunqi withdrew her hand obediently. She was born in a military family, and she knew some military regulations clearly.

　"Get it through." Zhong Yun said.

The flushed face of Captain No. [-] appeared on the big screen, "Commander, the port is under control. Please instruct me on what to do next."

"Order the mecha team to land in the port for strict control, disarm everyone in the port, and disperse them to several places to imprison them. If there is any resistance, kill." When he said the last word kill, Zhong Yun's eyes shot out Intense murderous intent.

"Yes." Captain No. [-] responded and ended the communication.In fact, he certainly knew what to do next.Asking Zhong Yun is just out of respect for him, this complete surprise attack has completely convinced him.

Tianhai and the others were still discussing what happened just now.From Tianhai's point of view, the other party's commander is absolutely ridiculous. No one with a normal head would give such an order.

"It's normal for them to react like this." Chen Wen, who had been silent all this time, spoke.

"Cut. Sending battleships to die when you know you are going to die. Is this normal? I think you are out of your mind." Tianhai and Chenwen often carry their hands, even if they have nothing to do, let alone now .

"Just think about it, if any of the inhabited planets in Davao fell into the hands of the enemy, you will understand why Hong Xian's commander gave such an order." Chen Wen's counterattack was as simple as before and pointed to the point. .

Tianhai was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't think about this.If a habitable planet really falls into the hands of the enemy, the military department will go to the rescue even if it is desperate.

Every living planet has a population of hundreds of millions, billions, or even billions. If these people are ignored, no matter which country's government it is, it is guaranteed that it will fall immediately.

This is not a resource star, who can give up if he can just say give up.

Why did Davao build the last line of defense in front of the "Lanling Star" and defend it no matter how much it costs?It is because of the 15 billion residents on "Lanling Star".

"If Hong Xian's command hadn't issued such an order at that time, their fate would have been very miserable." A trace of sarcasm rose from the corner of Chen Wen's mouth.

In his opinion, these are all unnecessary sacrifices.Now that the fall has become a reality, as a commander, after knowing the situation, the most rational thing to do is to conserve strength and strictly defend.Instead of letting battleships and elite soldiers go to die.

The eight main battleships and the hundreds of thousands of officers and soldiers on board died meaninglessly.

"I bet, the defense opposite the jumping point is very empty now." Chen Wen's words were full of temptation.

Both Tianhai and Zhang Xiao understood the meaning of Chen Wen's words, and turned to look at Zhong Yun.If the opposite side of the teleportation point is also taken down...they are all so nervous that their palms are sweating.

It is impossible to say that Zhong Yun is not moved at all.Now take the opportunity to attack and there is a 90.00% chance that you can easily win.Think about it, no commander would be tempted by the temptation of taking down two enemy jump points in succession.

However, after weighing it in his heart, Zhong Yun could only shake his head regretfully, "Our strength is limited, and it is too dangerous to divide our forces."

"However, such an opportunity is once in a thousand years. If you miss it, you will never be able to meet it again." Chen Wen looked anxious.

"I also understand this truth." Zhong Yun shook his head helplessly, "But our strategic goal is to destroy, not occupy. Our strength is not enough to do this. If we divide into two teams, we are in danger of being defeated one by one. And We already have enough leverage and don't have to take any more risks."

Seeing that Zhong Yun had made up his mind, Chen Wen didn't persuade him anymore, he positioned himself as a staff officer, responsible for making suggestions.In the end, the decision was made and the commander Zhong Yun was needed.

Republic of Davao, Provisional Department of Operations.

"Is there no news about the No.40 Fifth Fleet?" The marshal sat on the podium with a gloomy expression.

"No." It was the minister in charge of external liaison who stood up and answered, "Since the No.40 Fifth Fleet sent back a victory message fifteen hours ago, there has been no contact from my liaison office."

According to the regulations, they have to send back a contact signal every two hours.However, the No. 40 Fifth Fleet has not contacted the Provisional Operations Department for a full fifteen hours.

After he finished speaking, the entire temporary combat department was eerily quiet. The marshal pressed his hand down before he sat down cautiously, for fear of making any noise.

Everyone present seemed to have a huge stone on their hearts, so heavy that it was hard to breathe.

The marshal lowered his head and put the knuckles of his fingers between his eyebrows, feeling deeply troubled.

Whether in public or private, the loss of contact with the No. 40 Fifth Fleet was unbearable for him.

In public, the No. 40 Fifth Fleet is almost the last force that Davao can bring out, if they encounter any accident.They can only draw troops from other military regions. That is the last move. He will not do that until the last moment.

In private, every family has a direct heir on the No.40 Fifth Fleet, which was their agreement at the beginning.

The representative of the Yang family is Yang Yunlong, the eldest son of the current owner Yang Bingchang, and he didn't know until after the fleet set off that his genius niece was also on board.

Losing two of the most important heirs at the same time, neither the Yang family nor the Liu family could bear such a loss.

The No.40 Fifth Fleet made very smooth progress at the beginning. When the people in the Provisional Operations Department learned that they had successfully passed the jump point and reached the rear of the enemy army, they were all elated.Then the good news kept coming, and they destroyed seven enemy supply stations in a row.Hundreds of thousands of citizens were rescued.

Then it wiped out a huge enemy supply fleet and cut off the enemy's supply in a short time.

This is a turning point for Davao.Make a decisive decision and activate the propaganda machine, not only to inform the whole army of this great victory, but also to report it overwhelmingly across the country.

Therefore, even knowing that this would make Zhong Yun more difficult to contain in the future, the Provisional War Department agreed to the decision to declare this victory.It's just that Zhong Yun's contribution and role were blurred without any trace.

Despite this, the people of Davao still expressed their strong concern for this young hero.

The 17-year-old major general captain (the media did not say that Zhong Yun was the commander of this fleet, but only mentioned his identity as the captain), which is legendary enough in itself.Also led the battleship to such a huge victory (this victory is obviously exaggerated due to the need for publicity).

Zhong Yun became a household name almost overnight, but the attention of the other five captains was not so high.

However, amidst the flowers and applause, some people began to question why Zhong Yun was able to obtain the rank of major general at the age of 17?
The people in the Temporary War Department were all furious. While ordering the people who spread the rumors to be found out immediately, they formed an emergency team and asked them to quickly resolve the crisis.

The emergency team immediately came up with a plan. The reason why this rumor can have such a big impact is because of Zhong Yun, a 17-year-old major general.It is actually very simple to resolve it, as long as the reason why Zhong Yun got this rank is made public.

The people in the temporary operations department were very helpless.The reason why the war was covered up in the first place was except for Zhong Yun's request.They also don't want the Yang family's power to continue to expand.But now I can't cover it up even if I want to.

On the same day, the spokesperson of the military department delivered a speech, which was broadcast live by all the media.

PS: It is estimated that some brothers have already consumed the Chapter 2 monthly pass. Those who have a monthly pass should vote for me.Thank you.
