Chapter 1609： A Gathering of Heroes

In the universe, the Serris, the flagship of the 1st Fleet of the Allan Hill Empire, is floating in the middle of a large group of super battleships.

Because it has to serve as a flagship, install a lot of command equipment, and also take into account the living and working environment of staff officers, the size of this battleship is almost twice that of other Invincible Tier 2 battleships.

Directly in front of this guard fleet, the battleships of the Ailan Hill Empire lined up like the Milky Way, with no end in sight.

Below the battleship, the transport ship responsible for replenishing supplies is huge, one after another small spacecraft shuttles through the entire fleet, and there are outline lights undulating with breathing.

With tens of thousands of warships of various types plus transport ships, the magnificence of this fleet is simply hard to describe in words.

Inside the bridge of the battleship Cerris, the adjutant walked to Marshal Lawnes's side and stood at attention to salute the report: "Report! The headquarters of General Medias was attacked by the guards, and there were no casualties."

After speaking, he handed the message to Lawnes: "At present, General Midas has arrived in a safe area behind in an armored vehicle."

Originally, Lawnes was nervous after hearing the news of the attack on Medias headquarters. But when he heard that the person had safely moved to the rear, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and accepted the message.

He watched the end carefully, then handed the message back to the adjutant, and said: "I know... it's really a false alarm. Send me a message, greet General Midas, and ask the ground commander to pay attention to safety. "

"Yes, Marshal!" The adjutant stood at attention and saluted, and said again: "I will inform General Rokai and General Castner!"

Marshal Lawnes nodded slightly, and then continued to ask: "How is the dispatch of the 2nd Fleet?"

According to the battle plan, the 2nd Fleet is no longer the main direction of the enemy's possible attack. General Bakaroff is leading the 2nd Fleet, moving closer to the flanks of the 1st Fleet.

In this case, the warships that were originally planned to be supplemented to the 2nd Fleet were directly supplemented to the 1st Fleet, which lost more.

"Because the main direction of the enemy's offensive has been determined, we have prioritized adjustments from supplementary forces." The adjutant replied immediately.

He took out the sandwiched tablet from his armpit, glanced at it and replied: "Last month, the 2nd Fleet replenished 113 battleships, and our 1st Fleet replenished 390 battleships."

"What about the Fleet Line of Defense?" Lawnes continued to ask.

The adjutant adjusted the information displayed on the tablet and continued to report: "We have established three lines of defense on both sides of the Higgs 3, and are currently engaged in repeated battles with the enemy fleet near the first line of defense."

"In the last ten days, we have lost 240 battleships and a large number of cruisers... The Warden’s fleet offensive is very fierce. It seems that they also realize that if we can’t tear our line of defense, the advantage will gradually fall to us. One side." He projected the information on the desktop in front of Lawnes, and explained in detail.

I clicked on the flanks of the fleet, and it was a simulated image of the state of engagement a few minutes ago.

It can be clearly seen from this screen that the two sides were thrown in a battle there, and warships were shot down and damaged from time to time.

The battleships of the Airanhill Empire were intercepting the Wardens who were trying to break into the defense line, and the two sides kept firing.

He pointed to the area of ​​the battle, and reported to the Lawns report: "The recent enemy's offensive focus has been placed on the right side of Planet Higgs 3. Maybe they think that is our weak point of defense."

Immediately afterwards, he paused: "Yesterday the other side entered a huge fleet and fought with us there. The losses on both sides were great, but we fought until the end, and we stabilized the line of defense. Now what you can see This is the closing phase of the ongoing battle...It is estimated that the two sides will disengage in 2 hours."

Reduce the entire map to the territory of the empire. The adjutant pointed to the two adjacent theaters, and continued to Lawnes: "General Maher led the 4th Fleet to drive away the Warden Fleet that harassed the Dothan Region. They are still standing still according to your orders."

"The 3rd Fleet of General Plén Eck also deployed defenses in Atlanta, and the opponent still has no ability to cross the line of defense he was stationed in." He gushed, after talking about General Maher's fleet, and then talked about General General Renek's fleet.

Now, these two commanders from the naval squadron are often mentioned together. Some people say that they are the double walls of the empire among the new generation of generals, and some people say that they are the successors of Lawnes, who are mainly cultivated within the space army.

But in fact, neither of them is much younger than Lawnes. One of them is only 7 years younger than Lawnes, and the other is only 5 years younger than Lawnes.

"According to the current situation, the Guardians are trying to concentrate their forces to tear our front line of defense. The staff's speculation... They are likely to attack Higgs 4 at the same time." The lieutenant said that, ending the report.

"I have asked Walter to hurry up to prepare for the battle... Lester is also over there, there shouldn't be any trouble..." Lawnes nodded, sorted out these specific situations, and was finally satisfied with the response he had made.

The adjutant also comforted: "In terms of strength, their total strength is close to our side, even if the guards attack there, it can delay a lot of time."

Although Walter had made some mistakes before, he had already been mentioned by His Majesty the Emperor himself. But if Walter had a little more face, he couldn't make trouble again.

With the addition of a Lester on the side, the Higgs 4 planet should be considered solid.

The two fleets are almost perfect in terms of scale and combat readiness, and there is no problem.

Besides, Lawnes still had a reserve fleet behind them, and the watchers wanted to destroy the Empire fleet near Higgs 4, which was nothing short of idiots.

You know, the ground forces of the Guardians who attacked the Higgs 4 planet were completely wiped out. This is also a psychological shadow.

So Lawnes stared at the holographic map in front of him and said: "Once the guards cannot immediately seize their line of defense, the follow-up fleet will arrive, and the war will fall into a stalemate... if the guards want to take the initiative, they must invest more. More troops will do."

The adjutant nodded and agreed with Lawnes’s analysis: “They have already suffered a loss on Higgs 4. If they don’t gather more than double the original strength, it is estimated that they will not dare to continue attacking Higgs 4. of."

"General Alfred is also a very safe commander, and the results of the ground battle are equally reassuring." At the same time, he also mentioned the ground commander of the Higgs 4 planet.

Although not as famous as Medias, General Alfred assisted Princess Cape Luna, and was known for his stability when he commanded the 9th Army Group. When Princess Luna is busy, Alfred can be said to be the de facto commander of the 9th Army Group.

Can command a general of a group army before the Ailan Hill Empire expedition to the Demon World, who is not a famous general in the world?

Lawnes was relieved when he heard General Alfred, smiled and changed the subject, and said: "Taiyi has been built 80%, as long as we delay for a few months, then the universe In the battle in China, we still have an absolute advantage."

"Even if the enemy's troops are doubled at that time, we will be able to win the war immediately." The adjutant who knew the Taiyi Project also showed a smile on his face.

According to Taiyi's estimated power, as long as this super weapon enters the war, the course of the war will be rewritten and everything will become another appearance.

At that time, the guards will be surprised, they will pay the price for today's invasion, and pay a heavy price!

When it comes to mentioning new weapons, Lawnes seems even more relaxed. He looked at the adjutant and curiously asked about another new weapon: "I hope so! By the way... how about the new weapon ‘ms’ unit?"

"Sir!" After receiving the relevant information, the adjutant introduced: "The aircraft carrier carrying Zagu's forces entered our army formation 15 minutes ago. There are ten aircraft carriers, carrying 1,100 Zagu."

These aircraft carriers have just been produced, and a series of modifications have been made to Zaku. First of all, these aircraft carriers canceled the original mechanical push-off device that launched Zaku, and switched to the latest catapult launch system, similar to the catapult of the catapult aircraft on the aircraft carrier.

This modification increased Zaku’s dispatch efficiency, and at the same time allowed Zaku to take off with a certain initial speed, and it was not easy to hit the aircraft carrier hull, making it safer.

At the same time, this aircraft carrier has eliminated heavy weapons, and even the anti-aircraft guns it carries have been drastically reduced. Instead, stronger defense equipment has increased the self-defense capabilities of this aircraft carrier.

After this transformation, the new aircraft carrier is very different from the previous fleet carrier giant, so it was named the Giant 3 aircraft carrier.

"So few?" Lawnes was obviously dissatisfied with the 1,000-plus Taizagu. If ten aircraft carriers were replaced with Z-type fighters, they could carry more than 5,000.

If it is replaced by a Giant 2 aircraft carrier, the number of fighter jets on board may exceed 1,000! Ten is a total of 10,000 fighters!

As a result, ten aircraft carriers have only carried 1,000 Zakus. Obviously, the number sounds too small.

"Yes, Marshal. Because Zaku can't use clones and puppets to control, so the number of aircraft carriers on board has decreased." The adjutant explained.

"I hope their combat effectiveness has not declined." Lawnes said with a shrug.

The adjutant comforted Lawnes and said: "No! Marshal! Even their combat effectiveness has improved qualitatively. We have simulated exercises, and a Zagu can easily defeat more than 20 Z-type fighters."

"So exaggerated?" Lawnes was taken aback, then looked at the adjutant. He did know that the new weapon was much stronger than the Z-type fighter, but a dozen or twenty things sounded surprising enough.

The adjutant replied affirmatively: "Yes, on the one hand, it is because Zagu's performance is really strong, on the other hand, the troops who were replaced by Zagu in the early days... are all trump cards of our army..."

Because Zaku can only be driven by a natural person, priority is given to the main force. Almost for the same reason, the pilots who get Zagu are basically ace pilots with excellent fighter jets.

They have been driving fighter jets to fight with the enemy in the air since the era of the Air Force of the Airenhill Empire, shooting down dragons and demon bats and other difficult or in vain enemies.

Each of these pilots from all over the world has shot down dozens or even hundreds of enemy planes, and the best of them even shot down more than 1,000 enemy planes in total!

Intuitively speaking, a pilot destroyed the entire Royal Air Force during World War II!

These pilots don't even talk about changing into Zhagu, they are driving the original Z-type fighters. It is not an exaggeration to fight five Z-type fighters driven by ordinary pilots by one person! What's more, they are now equipped with more advanced weapons and are each other's teammates.

Lawnes couldn't imagine what a terrifying combination would be if a pilot who shot down hundreds of enemy planes was a wingman for another pilot who shot down hundreds of enemy planes.

Therefore, Lawnes mentioned this super trump card with great interest: "Oh... I heard that Orange has also changed into Zaku?"

The adjutant smiled and echoed: "Yes, it's not just Orange, Elan Raymond, Shuke... are all on the list of the first batch of reloaded pilots... and their Zaku has been specially adjusted. It’s more powerful, it’s... awesome."

Each of these pilots is a valuable asset to the military, and every name here represents a miracle in the history of human aviation, so it is not surprising to give them better weapons, or simply to say the best weapons. .

"It's really a gathering of heroes. Hahaha." So Lawnes smiled even better and said with a smile.

The adjutant also laughed: "Hahaha!"

After laughing, Lawnes looked forward to this unit even more. So he decided to let this force join the war as soon as possible.

He only listened to his order: "That's right, let Zagu's troops go into the afternoon counterattack. I want to see if these robots are as powerful as the legendary ones!"

The adjutant stood at attention and saluted, and said, "Yes! Marshal! I'll give orders!"

At this moment, no one knows that an ordinary battle that is about to break out will become a famous battle engraved in the annals of history because of the addition of these pilots driving Zagu.

One and a half hours later, the fifth cosmic battle of the Higgs 3 planet, which was later called the Battle of Zagu, began!
