Chapter 636: Feint to attack the fleet and switch to offensive state!
"Hahahaha! I knew I was right!"
On the flagship of the Federation Navy's First Fleet, the Intrepid, Marshal Trafalgar could no longer suppress the surging ecstasy in his heart, and he roared with unprecedented excitement.
His face, which had experienced the vicissitudes of time and was engraved with traces of perseverance, was slightly red due to extreme excitement, and his whole person was immersed in an indescribable state of excitement.
For Admiral Carroll, who was sitting on the other command chair, this was the first time he had seen Marshal Trafalgar, who had always been calm and emotionless, in his many years of following him. , on the eve of joining the battle, there was such a violent and rare mood swing.
"Marshal, I can see that you are in a good mood?"
Admiral Carroll asked. He felt a little more relaxed at the moment. Looking around, the huge combat star map clearly and intuitively showed the current strength comparison of the two sides. It was an absolute advantage of three to one. In this situation, the federal army held an overwhelming numerical advantage.
Moreover, the three fleets here are all elites of the federal navy, not to mention having the upper hand and morale advantage in ambush battles.
Therefore, in Admiral Carroll's view, this ambush battle was not said to be a sure win, but it was also a certainty.
After hearing Admiral Carroll's words, Marshal Trafalgar also smiled and said: "There is nothing more beautiful in the world than seeing through your opponent's strategic deception."
——
Turn the time back to the moment when the "Iron Triangle" received the information that "the Atlas combat fleet dispatched on a large scale, and two super flags also dispatched with the fleet."
Based on the previous discussions between the three, the transmission of this intelligence almost confirmed the possibility that Atlas Group and the Renaissance Alliance would launch a full-scale attack on the Federation.
And Brandon even hoped on the spot that Marshal Trafalgar would lead the fleet to prepare for war and 'defend the enemy outside the country'. Although the area controlled by Atlas and the Renaissance Alliance was actually the territory of the Federation.
"We can no longer withstand the struggle. If the Atlas Group invades and causes huge chaos, then the situation that we have finally stabilized during this period will have problems again. There have always been people below who are against the military government. ', now they can find an opportunity to add fuel to the fire."
Brandon's speaking posture was very low, almost as if he was begging Trafalgar directly.
This is not because of any other reason, but because he knows that if Atlas Group and the Renaissance Alliance really come in, he will definitely not end well.
On the other side, Defense Secretary Miller has the same idea as President Brandon. He also believes that the Federation can no longer withstand the tossing, so the main fleet must be used to block the enemy's attack that may come at any time.
After hearing the persuasion of these two people, Marshal Trafalgar carefully stared at the star map and the troop arrangements of both sides for a long time, and finally raised his head and said:
"The Atlas Group and the Renaissance Alliance will not really launch an attack. What we are seeing is just a strategic fraud. That Mr. Amber must have other goals."
"What?!" Brandon was shocked, "Marshal Trafalgar, this is too risky! How can we be sure that this is a trap set up by the Atlas Group?!"
"Yes, once there is a mistake in this plan, we and the federal government will be in dire straits." Defense Secretary Miller also tried to dissuade him.
It can be said that Marshal Trafalgar's words were completely beyond the expectations of the other two people. They did not expect that after seeing the Atlas Group's super flagship in place, the Navy Marshal still believed that Atlas The Sri Lanka Group would not actually launch an attack, but at the same time chose to use every trick to ambush Amber.
Marshal Trafalgar saw the suspicious looks on the two men's faces. Brandon even began to look at himself like an 'old fool', and the Marine Marshal had to explain.
"To be honest, I admit that there was a moment when I almost believed it. I almost believed the Atlas Group's drama, and planned to lead a fleet to confront them on the edge of the control zone just like you thought. .”
The corners of Marshal Trafalgar's mouth raised slightly, revealing a slightly bitter smile, and his eyes revealed a hint of self-deprecation.
Brandon: "Then what was the reason that made you, Marshal, change your mind?"
"Their 'play' was so realistic, as if they were really going to attack us."
"Is there any problem with this?" This time it was Secretary of Defense Miller who asked the question confusedly.
Seeing that the other two people still didn't understand his thoughts, Trafalgar slowly explained his reasons and thoughts to them.
"When I calmed down and carefully analyzed Commander Amber's character traits and consistent combat style, I firmly believe that he is definitely not a person who will fight according to such conventional routines. What Atlas Group has seen in this battle is It seems like a perfect play, in my eyes Instead, it has become an overly deliberate disguise of the large red HCP, which is 'showing off' outside every day, as if it is a coquettish thing that others don't know is 'Amber' inside, which makes it even more deliberate."
Having said this, Marshal Trafalgar showed a rare expression of appreciation on his face and continued:
"This Mr. Amber really likes me in this area. If it weren't for our different positions, I would really like to put aside the troubles of the war and have a good communication with him."
"This kind of 'communication' will be fine no matter how long it takes after you win the final victory and capture him. We must respond to the immediate emergency first!"
President Brandon's voice was a little anxious. It was obvious that he had no intention of joking with the old navy. After gathering his emotions, he continued to ask:
"Since you think this Amber is trying to get behind us and 'stab a knife,' where do you think he will attack? Attack our main warship production line? Or our current largest refinery?"
"I thought it would be here"
Marshal Trafalgar raised his finger and pointed to an area without any official facility markings on the map, and the other two were even more shocked when they saw this area.
"'Pillar of All Beings'? Wait, you mean, they are going to directly attack our proton annihilation bomb assembly center?"
Defense Secretary Miller suddenly sat up straight, and the expression on his face became extremely serious at the same time:
"This place is top secret to the outside world. Even if Mr. Amber was a psychic agent before, there is no way he would have access to secrets of this level."
Marshal Trafalgar smiled and said as if Amber had been his old friend for many years: "The more impossible the place, the more likely Mr. Amber intends to 'win by surprise'"
< br>
"Marshal! You are clearly gambling. Even a person like me, who is not a high-level military person, knows that there is basically no evidence to support the choice you are making now!"
President Brandon finally couldn't bear it anymore. After all, if the Atlas Group really came in, he, the last president, might really lose his life.
So he stood up from the chair, waved his hands, and had a rare moment of toughness in front of Marshal Trafalgar.
"Because of your unilateral 'feeling', you judge that the enemy's heavy troops on the confrontation line are just acting. At the same time, because of your unilateral 'guessing', you believe that the enemy will suddenly attack 99.9% of the planets that are top secrets of the Federation. Launch a raid on a secret facility that is not marked on the map?”
From the perspective of an ordinary person or even an ordinary officer, Brandon's toughness does make sense, because the decisions made by Marshal Trafalgar are all based on his own experience and intuition, and There is no direct intelligence to support this. In fact, Secretary of Defense Miller had the same idea as the President at this time, but as a friend and 'traditional ally' of Marshal Trafalgar, it was difficult for him to directly refute it at this time.
Under normal circumstances, President Brandon could find a way to veto Marshal Trafalgar's battle plan through procedures, but unfortunately, the current federation is no longer 'normal'.
So Brandon also felt for the first time what the ‘charming moment of military government’ is~
After stubbornly adhering to his own judgment and not allowing others to refute him, Marshal Trafalgar led the three selected elite fleets to leave secretly and arrived at the 'Pillar of All Living Things' more than ten days in advance as quietly as a ghost. This mysterious and dangerous cloud of interstellar dust lies in wait.
As for the batch changes in painting and hull numbers on the confrontation line, pretending to be from the First, Second, and Third Fleets of the Federation Navy, half of them came from temporarily unsealed sealed warships, and the other half came from the military-industrial complex. Corpse'.
These giant companies that were once all-powerful in the Federation were completely incorporated after the military government headed by the "Iron Triangle" was formally established. The warships they controlled also became spare ships and were pulled out at this moment to "prop up the facade."— —
"Report, it has been confirmed that the enemies in front of us are the First, Second, and Third Fleets of the Federation Navy! Judging from the rapid screening results of the Intelligence Control Center, these three fleets should be at full strength. The closest one is the Federation's First Fleet. Fleet, straight-line distance of 290,000 kilometers, current relative speed of 13 kilometers per second! ”
On the bridge of the Eternal, Ramos quickly reported some important information to Amber. Unsurprisingly, the young officer's face showed nervousness, just like the other rookies on the bridge. Same as an officer.
"Boss, what should we do now? Should we continue the operation?" Ramos asked cautiously.
"Calm down. You are a fleet officer!"
Amber did not answer Ramos's question directly, but reminded him, and at the same time glanced at the uneasy eyes on the bridge.
"The same goes for you. Officers should behave like officers! You are the role model for everyone in the fleet. Even if you become such a bear, how can you let the rest of the fleet have the courage to fight?!"
Amber's voice seemed to have magic power, penetrating directly into everyone's ears. This kind of voice that used psychic skills quickly made Ramos feel at ease.

"Besides, I didn't panic, why are you panicking?!"
"Yes, Boss"
Amber's tone changed: "You still want to drive a warship with such a low voice?"
After hearing this, Ramos seemed to be under a spell. He immediately stood up straight and replied loudly: "Yes! Boss! We are not panic at all!"
"Very good~ This is so energetic!"
Amber nodded and praised with satisfaction, and at the same time, she did not stop moving on the command seat operation panel for a moment.
From the very beginning, he had been working with Lilith and Seris to quickly search for a trajectory line, intending to escape from the three federal fleets before they completely surrounded him.
The psyker's 'multi-threaded' thinking ability was brought into full play at this moment. Even if his brain was calculating rapidly, Amber kept giving instructions one after another, quickly moving the fleet into a state of approaching the enemy.
The calculation of the emergency breakout route is not difficult. Although Marshal Trafalgar made the right bet that Amber would lead a fleet to raid here, he could not predict the exact location of Amber's attack anyway and could only make decisions based on his own experience. A very sophisticated pre-siege.
But even so, this encirclement still seems a bit loose. After all, if three fleets are used to encircle it, the number is still somewhat insufficient, and there are still loopholes in many places.
Although the 'operational space' left is not large, and it is difficult for ordinary fleet commanders to utilize it in such a short period of time, it is enough for Amber.
Soon, the breakout route was displayed on the holographic projection platform, and after double verification by Lilith and Seris, it was quickly distributed to the entire fleet.
This information, processed by two major AIs, is detailed down to the breakout route of each battleship, so that the battleship that receives the order does not need to undergo secondary processing, and can be directly handed over to the shipboard control personality to guide the route adjustment.
Therefore, Amber's 'cute new fleet', which adopted a new command model, appears to be more orderly and faster than those old fleets when it implements the flagship order, just like a uniform school of fish in the deep sea.
Such feedback also allowed Amber to regain a sense of the game after a long absence, because when conducting fleet command in the game, there is a system to provide similar assistance to reduce the player's operational burden.
"The entire fleet begins to break out according to the latest route, advance three times!"
"All electronic warfare units turn on the electronic warfare module, and after the frequency hopping scan is completed, conduct a full-band, full-channel electronic warfare attack!"
"The second, third, and fourth attack formations of the forward assault formation are loaded with stealth plasma torpedoes. The launch tubes have no deflection and are loaded and launched with 5 rounds!"
"The fifth and sixth attack formations on the right wing of the assault formation, loaded with anti-beam gel missiles, with a deflection angle of 15 degrees, wall-type distribution, 3 salvos, 2 minutes apart, launch!"
"Assault formation rearguard third, fifth, and seventh driving protection units, micro-powered automatic air mines, No. 3 distribution plan, full base release!"
Just like controlling an entire fleet in a guild battle in the game, Amber's fleet began to respond to his orders at an extremely high speed.
Although many crew members in this fleet, including the battleship's command, panicked after the Federal Navy's ambush fleet appeared, they gradually became more at ease when the instructions from the flagship were issued through the tactical network. Come down.
Just like Amber explained before departure, they only need to complete every instruction of Amber according to the procedure, and the rest will be left to Amber to command the fleet.
After confirming that the fleet quickly carried out its instructions and that there was no delay or disconnection for the time being, Amber breathed a sigh of relief and also sent a message to the fleet on the confrontation line in the federal controlled area through the flagship's ultra-long-range communication unit. , sent a brief order.
[It has been confirmed that the 1st, 2nd and 3rd fleets of the Federation Navy are all guarding the 'Pillar of All Beings' area and will immediately launch a full-line attack according to the pre-war task assignment. ]
Looking at the 'sent' prompt that popped up on the remote communication interface, Amber raised her head and looked through the portholes at the front of the Federation Navy fleet.
His sharp gaze seemed to have directly spanned a distance of hundreds of thousands of kilometers, penetrated the thick front armor of the battleship, and focused on Marshal Trafalgar on the captain's seat.
"God of War, no God of Gamblers, I want to see how firm your determination is."
