Chapter 359 Mars
“Ha! I knew I was with the wrong person!”
Randall said excitedly, and after hearing Amber’s decision, Cliffs , also breathed a sigh of relief.
“You two guys are just waiting for me to say this, right?”
Although An’s two fleet commanders have ‘humanity’, Po was still very relieved, but he still wanted to give these two people a warning in advance.
"Are you ready? Hell is coming next."
Amber sighed and continued:
"Once we begin to accept the surrender of the imperial forces, then the Federation will be 100% They will take the opportunity to cause trouble. They hate and covet our Atlas now. I have a strong feeling that this matter will not end easily, so I ordered"
Rand. After hearing the last sentence, Er and Cliffs immediately sat upright and became serious.
“The Atlas fleet will enter the highest combat readiness state from now on, ready to respond to provocations and attacks by the federal fleet at any time, while keeping in mind our principle of not firing the first shot.”
"Understood!" Tested.
The Ms. Saleh you brought back is really amazing. With her assistance, the progress of the entire construction work has been accelerated a lot, and many problems have been solved in advance."
Randall replied, since Cliffs, as the chief commander of the fleet, puts more energy on the fleet, Randall is keeping an eye on the progress of the 'new ship' for the time being.
"Tsk, this is really a rush. Originally, I wanted the Infinity to be tested for a while, and the personnel and equipment on it also need to be adjusted. Now it seems that time is no longer enough."
Amber He frowned, it was obvious that the current situation was developing faster than he had previously expected.
"Let them rush here while testing. The combat ships left behind at the Tower of Babel and the asteroid belt will also set off at the same time. They will join the Infinity halfway and jump directly over."
"Amber, are you going to stud?" Randall asked in shock.
"'A lion must fight a rabbit with all his strength', not to mention that the gap in strength between us and the Federation is so big. Since conflict with the Federation is highly likely to be inevitable, then we might as well give it a go and let them know what it means' Pain'."
——
The imperial infantry platoons that surrendered to Atlas, after being disarmed and completing inspections under the supervision of Atlas soldiers, entered the camp one by one and set out separately. area.
I don’t know why, but when these surrendering Imperial soldiers saw the Atlas soldiers who were all in white and the red cross signs on their bodies, they thought of the rumors about the ‘Angels in the Field’ that were spread among the Imperial civilians. After hearing the legend, everyone actually relaxed.
Even they themselves don’t know why they completely let down their vigilance, so that after most of them entered the camps and temporary cabins built by the worker bees, they didn’t even bother to eat and started snoring directly. Huge sleep.
On the other side, as the surrendered imperial soldiers gradually relaxed, ten refugee camps, including this camp, all received orders from Amber.
Soon, the military commanders of the ten combined battalions and the teaching team knew about the threats they faced from the Federation after they began to accept the surrender of Imperial soldiers.
The reaction of everyone was similar to what Amber expected - everyone screamed "please fight" and said that they would definitely continue to fight to maintain the "bottom line of intelligent creatures".
This is especially true for Roma people like Menton and Telak. Just as the ram-head platoon leader Om said at the time, the Roma people have their own persistence and principles in this regard. Their race has an attitude towards "providing shelter to the weak" that outsiders cannot imagine. of persistence.
This is of course good news for Amber, because it means that these Roma people have gradually moved away from the 'money orientation' in this incident, and have become truly I want to do this from the bottom of my heart.
Of course, the bad news is that they should be easily 'red-tempered' by the provocation of federal soldiers, and 80% of them will be able to fight after the conflict breaks out——
As Atlas and the Federation become increasingly tense, In the atmosphere, time passed like this day by day.
During these days, due to the persecution of refugees and surrendered soldiers by the federal army, the treatment from Atlas was almost at two extremes.
So more and more refugees began to come to seek asylum, and at the same time, imperial soldiers began to surrender to Atlas' troops in an organized manner.
Of course, all of this is limited to the area covered by ten refugee camps and outposts. Atlas cannot take care of most other places on the planet now.
This directly caused many refugees and surrendered soldiers who were not within the coverage area to follow the coordinate guidance shared by others in the local network and start moving towards their nearest refugee camp, embarking on a difficult road with an extremely low survival rate. '.
The federal ground troops naturally discovered Atlas's actions.
In particular, Camp No. 5, which is responsible for the Second Heavy Combined Battalion and currently houses the largest number of refugees and imperial prisoners, can be said to be the focus of attention.
Every day, countless drones conduct surveillance and provocation outside the 'no-fly zone' designated by the camp. The reconnaissance troops sent by Monton and the temporarily deployed satellite reconnaissance also discovered the federal ground The troops are mobilizing forces here.
The scale is about the size of two synthetic brigades.
In response, Amber also successively moved the three synthetic battalions in hand as reserves in the name of "replenishing manpower due to the increase in refugees."
Twenty days later, the Infinity and other combat ships in the formation completed the jump and arrived in deep space about a 5-hour jump distance from Pyra 4 to stand by.
After the arrival of Atlas's most powerful combat ship, Amber felt a little relieved, but then another news came, which made his heart hang up again. .
According to the intelligence collected by Lilith assisting the Intelligence Analysis Center, three unmanned fleets of the Federation Navy also arrived in the Pyla galaxy and were replenishing and repairing the fleet in deep space where the specific location was unknown.
Their arrival brings a possible fleet battle to a situation that is absolutely unfavorable to Atlas.
At the same time, an urgent message came from Camp No. 5 - a federal force requested to enter the refugee camp to inspect the recently admitted refugees and imperial troops.
"What is supposed to come has come. The play is finally about to begin."
