Chapter 628 Marshal Trafalgar’s concerns
Hearing Marshal Trafalgar's sudden question, Admiral Carroll was stunned for a moment, and then replied while continuing to operate:
"Yes, Marshal, it seems that he did break the record back then, but I don't know if anyone else broke it later. After all, it's just a test score for the assignment on the picture, and it's not that worthy of attention."
"I don't think so." Marshal Trafalgar shook his head. "The ability to operate on the map at any time is a skill that a qualified naval admiral must master and even achieve to the extreme."

It seemed that this topic aroused the interest of the navy marshal, so he, who usually didn't talk much before the battle, continued to speak:
"I know that today's young commanders pay less and less attention to these basic subjects. Most of them rely more on letting the shipboard control personality to 'one-click drawing', and then modify it based on their own experience. Finally, Form a combat diagram"
Marshal Trafalgar's fingers tapped rhythmically on the armrest of the command seat, and what he said next also contained a hint of dissatisfaction.
"I know that the younger generation often says that 'technology changes life', and I agree with this view. I also know that as the shipboard auxiliary personality becomes more and more perfect, it will indeed be a great help to the captain and fleet command. , the post-war summary and combat process archiving can be omitted. A lot of tedious work, but the problem is that more and more naval officers now let the shipboard control personality do the planning when it comes to combat plans, and they just make a few modifications and it's done. So, are such plans made by people? Or is it formulated by AI? ”
It seems that he realized that it was inappropriate to say this before the war, so after finishing his "mouth addiction", Marshal Trafalgar stopped talking in time: "Hahaha, Carol, just listen to me, a bad old man. Let’s complain a bit~”
"Marshal, no one dares to call you a 'bad old man'." Admiral Carroll smiled, and then pointed to the schematic diagram of the battle plan ahead, "The plan is ready, you can talk to me while you look at it."< br>
"Well let's start."
Marshal Trafalgar nodded and clicked on the control panel on the armrest of the command seat. Carol immediately felt a pressure in the surrounding air - that was the effect of the shielding force field being activated.
In the eyes of others on the bridge, the huge projected image in the center suddenly disappeared and was replaced by a huge 'red cross'. This also meant that the next words between the two people were not intended to be known to others.
Soon, Admiral Carroll explained his operational concept to Trafalgar.
His general plan is actually very simple in summary, that is, not to engage the enemy at a numerical disadvantage, but to use several surrounding star systems to pull the rebel fleet, because according to the information from the Naval Intelligence Department, these star systems are also part of the rebel force. base camp, so once the Federation fleet shows signs of launching an attack in these systems, the other party will have to return to defense.
In Carroll's view, the rebel fleet in front of him is not actually well organized, and has never conducted joint operations before. The tactical coordination is also very bad, and they have their own agendas in order to preserve their strength
Once the federal navy starts to pull, the rebel fleet will definitely become disconnected due to various reasons, and the federal fleet will seize the opportunity of the opponent to divide its forces and attack them separately.
"Marshal, I know very well that with the combat capabilities of our three fleets, even if we start a head-on battle with the rebels immediately, we will never be at a disadvantage, and we will undoubtedly win the final victory.
However, in such a head-on battle, we will inevitably pay a certain amount of casualties. If we defeat each other one by one when the opponent divides its forces, the losses suffered by the fleet will definitely be much smaller.
From a macro perspective, there are still many problems within the federation, which has caused the current fleet replenishment rate to be far lower than normal. In addition, there are more than one rebel group in the entire federation that we need to exterminate, so we still need to 'Penny wise'."
In front of Marshal Trafalgar, General Carroll was like a humble student, speaking his mind without reservation, and at the end he said jokingly:
"If possible, I even wish I could kill these rebels in front of me without any injuries~"
"You have thought carefully, Carol." Marshal Trafalgar said slowly, "Under normal circumstances I would make the same choice as you."
When General Carroll heard this, his expression did not change at all, because he knew very well that this actually meant that the old marshal did not agree with his battle plan. The latter did not let him wait too long, and continued to speak in a slow but serious tone:
"You have taken into account the current situation of the Federation, the current situation of the Navy, and even more that we need time. But what we lack most now is precisely time, not battleships."
Marshal Trafalgar took over the control of the holographic projection platform and started operating it with the same skill. Soon the huge star map in front of them began to zoom and move again, and finally came to a 'three no matter' zone on the federal border. And finally zoomed in to an asteroid belt.
In the center of the picture is a huge asteroid, and next to it is this line of text.
[A. Bawa Ku Asteroid Fortress, Atlas Group]
"Carol, you forgot about it."
"You mean Atlas Group?"
"Yes, if you have checked all the intelligence and information related to this giant company recently, you will find that it has become the biggest threat to the Federation at present. And don't forget, how many of our colleagues died in Atlas Under the fire of the group's battleships"
At this point, even Marshal Trafalgar couldn't control himself. He tightly grasped the armrest of the command seat with his hands, and the veins on the back of his hands popped out.
You must know that during the battle between the Federation Navy and the Royal Navy of the Star Dragon Empire, although both sides also suffered heavy losses, they still did a relatively good job in protecting senior generals. In most emergencies, generals will be given priority to evacuate.
Although the two deep space fleet commanders lost in the early stages of the war and a large number of generals guarding the fleet could also be said to have been killed, these fleets were all 'local fleets' anyway and could not be considered 'direct descendants' of the navy.

As for the senior generals of the main fleet of the Federation Navy, only two were directly killed on the battlefield, and later even killed an Imperial Duke in turn.
However, in several head-to-head confrontations with the Atlas Group, the Federation Navy lost more than one general.
Four major generals died directly on the battlefield, and one captured lieutenant general fell into the shadow of the defeat directly after being sent back. He was eventually dismissed because he could no longer serve as fleet commander. .
There is even a major general who has now joined Atlas Group. Although Marshal Trafalgar is very clear that the main reason is that the federal government and the military-industrial complex were not good at that time, but he still attributes it to Atlas Group. On the group.
Not to mention, in these several battles, the federal fleet participating in the battle suffered heavy losses, and some of the fleets were even annihilated
Therefore, in the heart of Marshal Trafalgar, the Atlas Group has already risen to the level of a 'serious problem'. After the provisional military government was formally established and the power was in hand, the Navy Marshal wanted to resolve this threat as soon as possible.
"Carol, we must use the shortest possible time to settle this chaos within the Federation, and then concentrate all our efforts to eliminate the Atlas Group before it completely grows to the point where we cannot fight it."
< br>
Trafalgar readjusted the star map back to the current warring galaxy, redrawn a brand new battle plan diagram as quickly as possible, and then said:
"So in this battle, I will only conduct one tactical maneuver inside the galaxy. No matter how these rebels react, I will clench my fists and kill them in one go!"
