Chapter 519: The first battle between light and darkness!
Dealing with these two rogue regimes is really a headache.
Boss Yang did not leave the meeting room. He sat quietly in his seat, waiting for the representatives of the two companies to return.
The situation just now was actually very dangerous.
The first two battles of Xie Luo made Luo Feng win the respect of all interstellar political systems, but this does not mean that two of the four major powers will obey Luo Feng's command.
These politicians, who already hold high positions in the four most powerful political systems in the Milky Way, look down on the Fallen Wind Alliance in their hearts.
What's more, Luo Feng also has military technology that makes them jealous.
In such an important diplomatic occasion, the word "get lost" should not be said;
But Yang Ming still said it in order to stimulate the people of the United States of Freedom.
Every word he spoke was carefully considered. The core idea was to win over one, suppress the other, and then reveal his own trump card to make the other party fearful, while redrawing the future prospects of this war.
Just now, if he had taken a step back, the two major political systems would have pounced on him and bit Luo Feng.
If Luo Feng is not strong enough, not to mention being unable to defend the core military technology, his own administrative star will become a battlefield that consumes the empire's military strength, and Luo Feng's soldiers will become cheap, dignified victims.
——This is the usual logic of the galactic powers.
Now, Yang Ming is not worried at all whether these two families will come back.
They will definitely come back because there are enough benefits here to attract them.
Emilia walked to Yang Ming's side, put her hands on the edge of the table, looked down at Yang Ming, and turned on the conversation encryption function.
"Bounty Hunter, are we really sure?"
Yang Ming frowned and asked, "Did I just treat you to a meal for nothing?"
"It's not that," Emilia said softly, "Also, I didn't eat anything. I just watched you guys feasting on the food without even being able to smell it."
"Don't worry."
Yang Ming smiled and said:
"We alone cannot defeat the Levi Fleet in full strength in a head-on confrontation, but we can paralyze it.
"Compared with the strength of the Levi Fleet, our Dark Star Fleet is still somewhat inferior, so I am trying to get more reinforcements to make up for the gap between us and the Levi Fleet.
"Besides, we have already formulated a strategy. The United States of Freedom cannot just sit there and watch."
Emilia asked: "Did the ambush just demonstrated really happen?"
"certainly."
"I thought it was a demonstration animation."
"I gave them the coordinates and they went to look it up themselves."
Yang Ming sighed and said seriously:
“Those ships are not coming back.
"After they chase and get close to the reinforcements of the Levi Fleet, they will launch suicide attacks. This is the important reason why I said that we can paralyze the Levi Fleet."
Emilia frowned and said, "Those soldiers..."
"Those thinking bodies that participated in the battle will not die," Yang Ming said with a smile, "They will just experience a serious injury, and after a little reorganization, they can enter the new ship."
Emilia smiled and said, "No wonder you are not afraid of the Levi Fleet."
“It’s the same on the other side.”
Yang Ming smiled and said:
"We are far behind in super weapons, and the self-propelled planetary gun is just a compromise product of the times.
"Moreover, the ambush you just witnessed had an important strategic purpose."
"Strategic purpose?"
"Yes."
Yang Ming looked at the empty space on both sides, thinking of teaching Emilia more things, and began to explain in detail:
“Proving our strength and scaring these two hooligans are only the most superficial purposes.
"To the Imperial Guards who control the Levi Fleet, I will show you my determination to fight to the bitter end. This is the second step.
"Using the Levi Fleet as the backdrop, we can show the mysterious fleet that has a military and technological advantage over the four major political systems, and how much combat power it has, so that they can believe what I said about the Faya people choosing us. This is the third level.
“Now, they will no longer doubt whether the Fayya people are on our side.
"This will have a great impact on subsequent political games."
Emilia asked, "So, are the Fayya people really on our side?"
“There’s no way to define it.”
Yang Ming smiled and said:
“They are pursuing possibilities, and the possibility of Falling Wind exceeds that of the decadent Sherman Empire, there is no doubt about that.
"And you see, I've boasted so many times, but the Fayya people haven't responded. Isn't this a hint?"
Emilia was thoughtful.
Prompt characters appeared in front of Yang Ming.
He glanced at Emilia, who immediately understood and sat back on the sofa in the back.
The Güell Alliance team returned to this virtual conference room.
Duoduo Moduo's old face had an unconcealable smile. When he saw Yang Ming, he slightly raised his eyebrows and said with emotion:
"We no longer have any doubts. We will definitely win the war in the end!"
Yang Ming smiled and said, "Have you captured the battlefield images?"
"Yes, our long-space probe discovered a fierce battle that broke out there. Two fleets of the Levi Fleet were ambushed while marching, and suffered heavy losses."
Duoduo Moduo groaned for a few seconds:
"The question now is how many of these powerful ships we have available."
Yang Ming said: "Enough."
"Enough means..."
"Enough to protect Luo Feng," Yang Ming raised his head slightly, "When has my boss ever failed?"
Duoduomoduo smiled and nodded, then sat there and continued to think.
Two minutes later, the Free United States group reappeared.
The person sitting at the top seat is no longer their defense minister, but their vice president.
When this person saw Yang Ming, he immediately smiled amiably and said seriously:
"Commander Yang Ming, for the sake of freedom and democracy of human civilization in the Milky Way, we must persist in this battle to the end!"
Yang Ming said solemnly: "With the support of the Fayya people, we will surely usher in a new climax in the cause of freedom and democracy in the Milky Way!"
"That's true," the Vice President said with a smile, "but we would like to ask, how many ships of this type with excellent combat effectiveness do you have..."
Duoduo Moduo on the side said: "Under the current circumstances, it is still enough to protect Luo Feng."
The expressions of the top officials of the United States of Freedom immediately became somewhat subtle.
Yang Ming didn't say much.
He was also afraid of overdoing it.
The Free United States would not want to see the rise of another empire.
He has to find a perfect balance between 'strategic deception' and 'strategic intimidation'.
…
After Luo Feng came up with another new technology for drone combat groups, the Free States and the Guel Alliance increased their troops again.
——In fact, the ships that were originally prepared to be transferred here were transferred here.
The total number of ships of the three coalition forces that gathered at the edge of Falling Wind increased to 39,200, and a sufficient number of reserves were maintained behind the front line.
Compared with the lack of effort shown by these two powerful nations during the Sherman Empire's second expedition to the New Federation, they have indeed done their 'best' on the side of the Fallen Wind Alliance.
The soldiers of the coalition have written their 'Cloud Will'.
Soldiers from the non-Luofeng Alliance were told that the ultimate goal of today's war was to destroy the evil Levi Fleet.
While the frontline was actively preparing for war, the three kingdoms had already started a war of public opinion, with slogans spreading across the entire galaxy:
Liberate the hundreds of billions of oppressed people in the empire!
Eliminate the threat posed by the Sherman Empire to all political systems!
Let the galaxy’s human civilization be great again!
When Yang Ming arrived at the front line, thousands of warships from the Luofeng Alliance had just arrived and formed Luofeng's reserve force in the rear. This reserve force was very important at the tactical level.
Four or five roaming armed forces appeared near the border of the Luofeng Alliance.
It was a fleet that came to support a former vassal state of the Empire that had declared independence, was invaded by the Empire, and then withdrew from the Empire.
They are actively contacting the Luofeng Alliance, wanting to join this large-scale war, even if it's just to wander around on the edge.
These fleets do not have many ships. In fact, they just want to come to the tripartite coalition to gain some presence and goodwill, so that it will be easier for them to apply for the coalition's asylum later.
Of course, these former vassal states would never want Luofeng to be defeated.
Only if Luo Feng resists the Sherman Empire can they truly move towards independence and avoid the butcher knife that the Sherman Empire has raised.
After careful consideration, Yang Ming allowed these small armed forces to join the battle.
——After Luo Feng, you can win over these former vassal states.
In the heavy battleship serving as the command ship, Yang Ming was waiting quietly, waiting for the arrival of this super-large-scale war.
In Lu's thinking space, tens of thousands of clones controlled a large number of Dark Star fleets and gathered secretly outside the battlefield.
Outside the Luofeng border, the new commander of the Sherman Empire's conventional military was frowning at the girl with twin ponytails who appeared in front of him. He wanted to question the tactics and battle methods issued by the other party, but he was concerned about the tradition of the imperial military to "learn to be a bystander", so he could only swallow his thoughts back.
The Sherman Empire's conventional fleet was deployed far away, confronting the three-party coalition forces from a distance.
Two groups of pitch-black warships appeared simultaneously in the upper and lower airspaces of the Sherman Empire, with an astonishing number of more than 13,000.
The bridge of the heavy battleship where Yang Ming was.
Boss Yang frowned and looked at the projection screen in front of him, wondering, "The other party didn't send out all the players?"
"Yes, Boss. Maybe... Ideally, he could use these 13,000 Levi warships to deal with us."
Lu's shadow appeared on the side and said quickly:
“Or maybe, Li is testing our strength. She knows our productivity within the Luofeng Alliance, but she is not sure about our productivity outside the domain.
"Perhaps in her estimation, these ships are more than enough to deal with the current Luo Feng."
"The seven semi-permanent dreadnoughts here are really a problem," Yang Ming narrowed his eyes slightly, "The established tactics remain unchanged. She has made her move, so we will follow her and increase the intensity of the war to see how she responds."
Lu thought about it carefully: "It is possible that Li wants to let us go."
"What do you mean?"
"If we fight hard enough and the Levi Fleet suffers heavy losses, then she can transfer the Levi Fleet away."
The law said quickly:
"Under the regulatory conditions set by Levi, all her actions must be logical and in line with the interests of the Empire. The Empire is now surrounded by enemies, and the replenishment speed of Levi's fleet is relatively slow, unless it is to seize the ships of conventional military forces.
“So, when the Levi Fleet suffers enough casualties, it will have to consider whether the Empire can withstand the siege of the major political entities if it continues to fight and loses more semi-permanent ships.
“This is just my guess.”
Yang Ming laughed dumbly: "Don't think too much, we will fight this as a war to defend our country. If we win, Luo Feng will rise, and if we lose, Domingos will be second."
"yes!"
Lu saluted and disappeared.
Soon, beams of traction lights lit up in the airspace above the three camps of the Free United States, the Guel Alliance, and Luo Feng.
The guidance is on and the road ahead is clear.
One after another, silver-white warships appeared around the light beam, and the space expansion rate soared rapidly, but was "suppressed" by the instruments carried by several large ships.
Thirteen thousand Dark Star battleships ranging from 800 meters to 3,000 meters appeared on the opposite side of Levi's battleship.
The logos on the hulls of these warships gave the generals and combatants from all sides a little surprise.
This logo looks like a revised version of the official emblem of the White Ghost Galaxy Fan Club, except that White Ghost's helmet has been changed into a blue skull with burning flames.
The Dark Star Fleet officially debuts!
…
The rear position of the Imperial fleet.
"My Lord Earl! Come and see!"
The staff officer shouted urgently.
Count Revell, who had just slept for less than ten minutes, hurried through the busy command area with a pair of panda eyes and arrived at the display terminal of the remote detector.
He saw the Dark Star ships.
"Mysterious Fleet!"
The staff officer's voice trembled a little: "The style of these ships! And their sense of technology! There is no doubt about it! This is the mysterious fleet that appeared before!"
Revell also recognized these ships at a glance.
The time when my idol's parents were taken hostage, it was these ships that easily broke through the poor local defenses within the empire!
"How many are there?"
"More than 10,000 ships, spread across the entire battlefield!"
"So many?" Revel was shocked. "They have the same number of ships as the Levi Fleet above us?"
"Yes, it is hard to say that this was not intentional on the part of the other commander."
The staff officer explained quickly:
"The estimated data of their combat power has been released, and it is almost the same as that of the Levi Fleet. We have previously detected energy fluctuations in the airspace behind us, which should be the ambush launched by these ships on the Levi Fleet.
"According to the gossip I got, in that battle, the loss ratio between this mysterious ship and our Levi ship reached... 1:1.2."
Reville opened his mouth, not quite sure how to comment.
When he learned that the Empire's invincible Levi Fleet was about to join the battle, he went to sleep with peace of mind.
But I didn’t expect…
"Are these ships of the Free United States?"
"No, according to the information we received from the Free United States and the Guel Alliance, these ships... are from the Falling Wind Alliance!"
"What?"
"My Lord, there may be something wrong here," the staff officer said quickly. "This Fallen Wind Alliance has given us too much of a shock. This regime seems to have appeared out of nowhere, and it has gained such a strong military force in a very short period of time. It's as if... it's specifically targeting our Sherman Empire."
Revill shrugged: "I have also heard a lot of rumors that the Faya people in the higher dimension world abandoned Sherman, and Luo Feng was the terminator of Sherman's glory."
The staff officer said quickly:
"If these mysterious ships belong to the Luofeng Alliance, then can we understand that... the previous Jinrong Star incident was planned by the Luofeng Alliance?
“And then there are those powerful liquid metal robots that appear and disappear at will, rendering our ten-plus lines of defense useless.
"Behind the Luofeng Alliance, there may be a more powerful and mysterious force."
Revil said: "It's no use saying this now. The situation has developed to this point."
Suddenly, a shout rang out from the side: "Captain! Our ship has received the order to attack! We will follow the formation and press forward!"
"Follow orders," Revil patted the staff officer's shoulder, "I'm already numb. You take command of our remaining fleet. I'm going to go get some sleep."
"No, how can you sleep in this situation?"
"Close your eyes and go to sleep."
Revell waved his hand.
"If the Levi Fleet fails, the Empire should just withdraw its troops and defend the border.
"We should fight bravely and kill the enemy!
"I just don't know why I fought bravely against the enemy."
With a short sigh, Revill's back disappeared again into the rest cabin in the corner.
The staff officer smiled bitterly, shook his head, and quickly returned to his command post.
The global radar showed that the ships of both sides began to approach each other almost simultaneously. At the current speed, it is estimated that they will be within the firing range of their respective dreadnoughts in half a galactic hour.
No, the enemy's planetary cannon has a longer range.
"Will the invincible Levi Fleet lose?"
This thought came to the staff officer's mind, but he felt that the idea was too ridiculous.
The Empire is invincible.
He thought firmly.
