Chapter 242 Don’t tell me your brigade commander is on the front line!
After learning that Amber was currently in a warring galaxy within the Federation, Perseus suddenly felt that his "no problem" just said might have been a bit hasty.
Although it is indeed a bit handsome to sit calmly and elegantly on the chair and say these two words in a "I don't care" tone.
But no matter what, he is also a nobleman of the Star Dragon Empire, and he is also the 'special envoy' of the Prince Regent.
Such a sensitive identity, going to such a sensitive place at such a sensitive time
Although Perseus still doesn't know the situation in the galaxy where the Federation and the Empire are at war, if he guessed correctly, there are 80% Imperial troops on the planet where Amber is.
But now that the words have been released, should he still be asked to stop Shikodi and tell him that we will 'talk another day'?
Not to mention that he could not afford to embarrass this person, but simply that he was now the 'Special Envoy of the Regent' and needed to take the Regent's face into consideration.
But even if he didn't say it, Shikodi still said that Atlas would arrange everything and his identity would never be exposed.
After conveying information about the current situation to the Regent through a secret communication channel, Perseus, accompanied by Shikodi and other staff, boarded the spacecraft bound for the Rubion system.
"Ms. Shikodi, I personally have a question that I am very curious about. I wonder if you can help me answer it?"
While the spacecraft was leaving the port, I stood in front of the port window and 'admired' the elf. Perseus from the strange creature spaceport asked.
"Please tell me."
"Theoretically, our Star Dragon Empire and the Federation are in a state of war, and the person in charge of your company is also helping the Federation. In this situation Under these circumstances, why are you still willing to communicate with me?
You know, I am here to discuss with you on behalf of the regent himself. ”
"Haha, this question is very simple."
Shikodi said with a smile. It was obvious that he already had the answer to this question.
“Because our Atlas Group is a company registered in the Thousand Stars Empire, we have no interest in either party.
And according to our person in charge, Amber Mr. Amber's philosophy is that we at Atlas are an 'extremely pro-foreign' company.
Mr. Amber often says that 'everyone who comes is a guest', so no matter who you represent, there is no one behind you. Whatever force it is, we are willing to communicate with you.”
"So, you are willing to do any kind of business?"
"That's not entirely true. If you want to destroy mankind, then we won't accept it~"
< br>"Haha, the people in your company are quite humorous"
It takes 14 days to depart from the bustling galaxy cluster to which the Peony Star belongs, and arrive at the Lubion Galaxy in the Federation.
However, on the day the spacecraft set off, Isabel in the orbit of Lubion 5 received the news from Shikodi.
Based on the 'quantum entanglement communication technology' developed by Lilith, Atlas established a temporary communication line from Peony Star to Rubion 5.
Currently, the real-time communication range of a set of quantum entanglement communication equipment is 4 standard jump distances, which theoretically cannot cover the distance from Peony Star to Rubion 5.
But when Amber was discussing with Lilith, she came up with an idea so simple that even the artificial intelligence had not thought of it.
“Can’t they be connected in a series like a beacon tower?
For example, the first group of communication equipment is A1 and A2, and the second group of communication equipment is B1 and B2. They can each Responsible for real-time communication of 4 standard jump distances
So if I arrange A2 and B1 in the same deep space relay station in the same galaxy, and use an information translation and interaction device to connect them, will it be the message sent by A1? In fact, it only takes time to translate and interact. Can it be passed to B2?
If we arrange multiple sets of equipment to be connected in series like this, can we achieve long-distance and fast communication across galaxies?"
When Amber said this idea, Lilith listened directly She was stunned for a moment.
When a series of 'digital waterfalls' representing high-speed calculations flashed in her eyes, the strong artificial intelligence said in a daze:
"Genius! Get out of the hospital! ”
"Lilith! Stop showing me some abstract videos!"
When the light cruiser Hermes, the flagship of Atlas, maneuvered to the location of the mixed brigade because of the need for direct ground connection over the area.
Captain and fleet commander Cliffs saw two orbital attack ships with the same 'door panels' that had entered a lower ground attack orbit.
Near the Hermes, the reconnaissance unit on the ship also discovered several small formations of different companies.
Obviously, these ships are also mobile units that come to contact their various companies.
"It seems that the war situation on the ground is still tense. I don't know if I can contact the Boss."
While he was talking in his mouth, in an encrypted communication cabin on the ship, Isabel was passing through A The unit direct connection function within TRAS calls the combined brigade headquarters on the ground.
Although the electromagnetic environment in this area was very complex at this time, thanks to the improvements made by Lilith and the technical team to the communication unit, Isabel was able to successfully contact the brigade headquarters in the war zone under such circumstances. .
Since the fleet is currently unable to intervene in ground operations, apart from some basic information exchanges these days, Amber has not communicated too much with the fleet overhead.
So when the picture captured by the communication camera appeared in front of her eyes, Isabel realized that the atmosphere in the entire brigade headquarters seemed a little anxious. Several combat staff members were gathered around a huge electronic sand table and pointing. The lines on the sand table representing the attack, defense, and maneuver of enemy and friendly forces were intertwined.
Some other communications staff officers responsible for the mobilization of various troops said something in a serious tone in front of the communications terminal.
From time to time there are soldiers wearing combat exoskeletons running in and out of this temporary brigade command post.
"Major Isabel!"
In the screen, a wolf-headed Roma ran over and said, 'Pa! ’ and saluted her with a sound. After Isabel subconsciously returned the salute, she finally realized that there was something wrong.
As the commander of the combined brigade and the overall commander of this combat mission, Amber did not appear in the picture.
"Where is your brigade commander?"
"Report to the major! The brigade commander has gone forward and pointed his finger forward!"
The wolf-headed man Hogg seemed a little nervous and was speechless. I was tongue-tied by the time.
"Then help me pick up the front finger. I have something important to report to the brigade commander."
Upon hearing Isabel's request, a string of cold sweat broke out on Hogg's forehead, but fortunately it was covered by the hair on his head, so he was not discovered.
"Major, the enemy has just launched a large-scale electronic warfare attack, and our brigade headquarters is temporarily unable to contact the front finger."
As soon as she heard this, Isabel's eyes narrowed. got up.
“Hogg, since you have helped cover our brigade commander, make up a more reasonable reason next time
When did you see our Atlas troops? , Have you ever suffered a loss in electronic warfare?
It was also attacked by a large-scale electronic warfare and couldn't contact the front finger. I'm sorry you came up with such a reason. "
Isabel mercilessly exposed the lies, causing Hogg to scratch his head subconsciously.
But before he could continue his 'quibble', he heard Isabel say seriously:
“Lieutenant Hogg, tell the truth, where is your brigade commander? "
"Alas" the wolf-headed man lowered his head and sighed,
"The brigade commander led the brigade's HCP company to attack, and is currently organizing a counterattack on the front line."
Isabel had an expression of 'Sure enough' on her face, she put her hand on her forehead and said helplessly:< br>
“Don’t you, the staff officers, stop you? A brigade commander, who is also the actual controller of the entire Atlas Group, is now on the front line as a commando captain?
Have you never thought about it? , If something happens to Amber, who will pay you? "
"Major, we have tried it too. But you also said that he is the brigade commander and our boss. What should we do? Dare you really stop him?”
Hogg's voice was also a little helpless. He had never thought before that the commander of the entire army would directly lead people to attack after formulating all battle plans and backup plans.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it for now. How is the fighting situation now?"
"Reporting to the major, the coalition's offensive is currently seriously hindered or it has actually switched to defensive operations, and The front is still retreating.
Our brigade is currently the largest salient on the entire front, and after the forward combat control team guided two rounds of orbital strikes, it repelled multiple enemy attacks. < br>
After discovering this, the Imperial Army on the opposite side is currently organizing a large number of troops to attack, hoping to eat up our protrusion in one go.
Therefore, after reading the intelligence returned by drones and reconnaissance satellites, the brigade commander decided to launch a counterattack against the enemy's joint unit before they completed their offensive assembly to disrupt their deployment. ”
“Where are the troops from other companies? Is support provided? "
"Haha." Hogg gave a helpless smile, and then continued:
"The troops of other companies are too busy to take care of themselves now, and they are still expecting us to support them!
However, Major General Benjamin of the coalition command gave us the authority to conduct orbital strikes, because the troops of other companies simply cannot conduct close-range guidance in the combat zone.
There is also the Black Frontier Defense Task Force on the right wing of our brigade. They were stopped by the brigade commander's order when they were retreating. I don't know what the brigade commander said to their commander. Anyway, this task force is now staying on the right wing. Ready to fight back. ”
At the same time as Hogg reported, relevant battlefield situation data was also sent to Isabel.
Looking at the front line that was ‘red across the board’ and ‘good news came frequently’, she also knew why Amber had to attack.
"Okay, it's like this anyway. Is there anything the fleet can do to help you? ”
“Hey! Don't tell me, it really does! ”
Hogg's eyes lit up and he opened another battle plan that Amber left before the attack.
