Him and their stars.

Chapter 1695 My Life Is Always a Failure

Although this top expert of the third generation of the Spiritual Research Society is still a proud and arrogant girl at heart, she is still very respectful to Feifei. Yu Lian even feels that sometimes she respects her more than himself.

"That's basically a fifty-fifty chance. So, Xiaosha has also reached the fifth ring? Haha, the so-called leader of the Four Heavenly Kings is indeed a wallflower." Yu Lian agreed sincerely.

Admiral Sylvester coughed violently, Feifei smiled without saying anything, and Taia even glanced at him sideways across the screen.

In short, that guy is even stronger than his counterpart in the previous life. As expected, the fate of a person is always closely related to the course of history!

  But then again, even if he is stronger than Shamene who started to challenge the Side of Truth in his later years, isn't he still evenly matched with our Miss Taia?

However, in another timeline, this female warrior, who should have had a bright future, did not even live to see the end of the war, and thus never had the chance to challenge the peak.

The impact of historical changes will always be reflected in all aspects. It not only frightened me, but also gave me more surprises. Yu Lian looked at Tai'a, who was growing up happily, and showed a gratified and warm smile that was the same as all the elders.

Yu Lian thought his smile should be very warm, but Miss Taia on the opposite side shuddered and forced out a smile that was uglier than crying: "Well, if you insist on saying it's 50-50 or something like that, you are being too boastful. Commander... I am very grateful for your compliment. However, I still know my own limitations. After all, I am no match for that Star Knight."

"But in fact, the cultivation resources that Viscount Shameen has been exposed to since he was a child are far beyond the imagination of ordinary Earth citizens like us. It is not surprising that his attainments in the basic stage are higher than you and me. However, this does not mean that the end point will be the same."

"I understand, uncle master. In fact, you are a good example." Tai'a smiled.

"Besides, there is no such thing as a duel of honor that is free of all external influences. When your master won the battle 1v3 and became a god, do you think he didn't use any tricks?"

Admiral Sylvester coughed even harder. He had not heard the whole story of this legendary battle, but he knew that the Earth had always promoted Master Lan as the glorious and righteous incarnation of justice, not only a perfect man in combat, but also a perfect man of morality and honor.

However, Taia smiled even more happily: “There is no more convincing example in the entire universe.

"So, how's it going over there?"

"I fought him for 200 rounds, but I didn't gain any advantage. I almost got hit once. Seeing that the time was almost up, I threw two EMP bombs at him."

This weapon cannot destroy the emblem machine, but it should be able to temporarily disrupt its energy conduction and communication systems.

"Then what?" Feifei asked curiously.

"The enemy should have lost communication with the mothership. Then, General Zuo Wanhu took the opportunity to order low-altitude drones to be dispatched from another hidden exit and bomb our battlefield passage at ground level, which naturally cut off the connection between the Shameen unit and the subsequent imperial forces."

Yu Lian nodded approvingly, looking like a teachable child: "It's really unethical... but I like it."

"Hehehe, Grand Master taught us that Tao follows nature. As long as we don't feel shameless, it won't affect our practice. In this way, of course, it doesn't matter whether we have martial ethics or not."

In short, the beam cannon of the unmanned airship is helpless against warships, and even the attack effect on fighter planes is only better than nothing, but it is insane against single-soldier mechas. Twelve unmanned airships more than three meters high, whizzing silently through the vacuum airspace less than a hundred meters high between the fluid metal armor and the solid outer wall, bombarding the exit of their own aircraft tunnel.

Of course, they were also shot down by the landing soldiers using blaster cannons and Vulcan cannons. But before that, they had already killed more than 300 people and also blew up the entrance of the tunnel.

Therefore, Viscount Shameen and his subordinates were divided on the spot.

The duel naturally could not continue, but the remaining elite grenadiers and knights were not willing to sit and wait for death. They quickly changed their formation and defended together, shrinking themselves into a hedgehog.

We all know that once one side's soldiers start fighting desperately, the battlefield will definitely turn into a cruel meat grinder.

Fortunately, the soldiers of the community were all pragmatic and did not expect to wipe out all the imperial soldiers here. Their offensive was still fierce, but it was not to the point of risking their lives.

This, then, gave the Empire hope of victory.

After that, a whole division of Imperial Marines airborne reinforcements finally set up a relatively safe landing point at the entrance of the bombed passage after paying the price of more than 2,000 casualties. Afterwards, the Imperial reinforcements even used expensive high-explosive dust and adopted a directional blasting method to tear open a hole.

Viscount Shameen covered his comrades while they fought and retreated. He was the last one to withdraw from the front line. When he was the last one to leave the battlefield, he looked directly at Taia, perhaps wanting to arrange a date for the next decisive battle with him, but he got nothing.

Just like that, this leader of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Astral Knights (Youth Group), after suffering repeated defeats as a psychic, also ended up as a loser in his first battle against the Community War as a land combat commander.

The soldiers of the Special Mobile Marine Group also began to rescue and take in all the wounded and prisoners, and gradually withdrew from the devastated battlefield back to the fortress.

Afterwards, Brigadier General Zuo Wanhu ordered the abandonment of this almost abandoned airway. This landing battle and hand-to-hand combat that lasted for an hour and a half came to an end.

However, this does not mean the battle is over.

This is how siege warfare works. As long as the marines of the defending community can return to the fortress through the passage, they will be considered to have successfully retreated, but the attacking imperial army has a lot to consider.

Their landing craft were relatively safe while waiting for the soldiers to return.

However, in the process of returning to the aircraft carrier, it was inevitably hit by the fierce salvos from the fortress turrets. Fortunately, the Rabbit also quickly approached with warships and responded with intensive artillery fire to cover friendly forces.

In the continuous bombardment, it is said that the Rabbit remained unscathed, but the other warships were more or less damaged. After a chaotic battle, the Imperial Fleet received most of the landing soldiers and turned around to retreat.

Perhaps the fleeing formation was so neat and handsome, and the scene was so beautiful that the Community Fleet was reluctant to pursue it, and thus they escaped from the battlefield safely.

"We lost 374 people and more than 1200 were wounded, but the enemy left more than 2000 bodies at the scene that they didn't have time to take away. This should be considered a victory, right?" Tai'a said.

"It's a victory worthy of a medal," said Feifei.

"A great victory..." Taia began to be full of confidence. She suddenly realized that she seemed to have some talent as a commander.

"So, what about the method I just mentioned? The Empire has also deployed two sub-cities and a giant orbital hydroponic farm on the flanks, which looks very suitable for landing."

“Why does a hydroponic farm look like a good place to land?”

"The flat Wanli Farm looks very suitable for looting... no, suitable for landing." Tai'a said as a matter of course.

Are you pirates? Well, robbing a farm is no longer pirates, it is clearly the operation of nomads traveling south. Please, at least be a little more cosmic. "So, what are you going to do? To steal carrots?" Yu Lian said with a poker face.

Tai'a smiled and said, "It's rude not to reciprocate. Didn't you also teach us that the more disadvantaged our forces are, the more we should take the initiative. This way, at least we won't lose in spirit!"

"I didn't teach you that. You must have read it in some ridiculous military book."

Feifei added: "Of course, the key issue is that if you fall into the same situation as the Empire's Shamen, we don't have a spare fleet to come to rescue you as expendables. By then, you may become an isolated force."

"The Special Mobile Cluster is currently the sharpest sword and the strongest shield in the fortress attack and defense. If we are really trapped in the enemy's formation, we will have no choice but to fight to the death to save it." Yu Lian said.

"There is indeed danger in this regard. Sorry, sir, I spoke out of turn." Tai'a quickly expressed his understanding.

She actually didn't really want to land back, but simply felt that since she had already worn the general star, it was necessary for her to give some opinions on the on-site combat.

Regardless of whether it is useful or not, if I really keep silent, wouldn't I look like a salary thief?

"However, sir, since we have all made such great achievements in battle, shouldn't this unit also have a special military flag?" She began to look expectant.

Yu Lian had no expression on his face and did not respond.

Fortunately, although Taia was a spirited girl, she still had some basic emotional intelligence since she was promoted to the general star, so she did not continue to ask. Her face still had the radiant look that only belonged to the winner. She saluted Yu Lian in a serious manner behind the screen and then said goodbye and went offline.

Admiral Sylvester thought for a moment and said, "Since the team has made great contributions in the war, it should be rewarded. This includes promotions and medals, and even more so team honors. I know that most of the soldiers in that unit have personnel connections from other units, and the reorganization involves the personnel of officers, which requires the approval of the National Defense Committee, but this can actually be resolved. Brother, if you ask, I can handle it for you."

Yu Lian twitched his lips: "So it's really called the Rose Knights League?"

"This name...it's both an alliance and an empire. Maybe it's quite suitable." Admiral Sylvester thought. "Of course, if possible, it would be best to let the cabinet elders name it."

Yu Lian couldn't help but look at Feifei, who spread her hands and looked speechless.

Admiral Sylvester added, "Of course I understand your concerns. But, Yu Lian, as the war has progressed to this point, more than 60% of the country's fleets have gathered here. Some minor military, political and personnel issues are actually nothing."

Is it really nothing? But, what is the saying? Only the name and the instrument cannot be shown to others!

Even the smallest military and political personnel are still "names"! As for weapons...

Bah, the reason why a large army was gathered at the front line was because of the needs of war and it had nothing to do with "weapons".

Yu Lian was immediately amused: "Why do I feel like you're saying that since the disease is already terminal and there is no cure, there is no need to take painkillers."

"Is it terminally ill? That's right, this war is the cause of the spread of cancer cells." The old senior student groaned.

"...I was just making an analogy. Where was your train of thought?" Yu Lian began to have a headache.

Senior Sylvester nodded and said, "Indeed, we should be decent in everything we do. You should take the painkillers. The more peacefully the patient passes away, the fewer hidden dangers there will be in the future."

"So, senior, who is this patient?" Yu Lian pressed his temple.

Admiral Sylvester and Yu Lian stared at each other for half a minute, and then, as if they understood something, they responded with a knowing smile, and then changed the subject a little stiffly: "In the final analysis, the future depends largely on the war. We did win, but after this victory, will the situation on the front line get better or worse?"

"You can't be a mysterious riddler, nor can you be a philosopher." Yu Lian sighed: "Don't mind, victory is victory. We can't change the strategic situation, but at least we can decide whether to cheer or not."

At the same time, on the battlecruiser, the flagship was intact but all the battleships were damaged, so the bridge was somewhat depressed. However, as the commander, Sobek felt that as long as all the battleships returned, the situation was much better than expected.

Anyway, this is just an exploratory battle. Since no boss wants to win, the first goal must be safety first.

At present, all the warships have been slightly damaged, but the number of crew members killed in the battle is only about 200. Considering the scale of the artillery battle just now, it is already a small loss. Sobek felt that he had done his duty to the marshal and several officers.

However, compared with the crew members, the losses of the Marines were truly tragic.

Naturally, as the commander, Viscount Shameen couldn't help but blame himself.

"I am no match for him. I can only look up to him for the rest of my life. I have already accepted my fate, but now, I can't even defeat his disciple?"

Well, compared to the loss of soldiers, he regretted his failure to win more.

Sobek knew who the "he" his colleague was talking about, but he still felt that he was under too much pressure, so he consoled him: "Strictly speaking, this Taia is not his disciple, but... Hey, forget it, it doesn't matter. In fact, you already have the upper hand."

"This advantage is meaningless in actual combat. Besides, I am not qualified as a commander! I fell into such a trap so easily."

"Well, this is not your fault. You were in the second group to land. At that time, the first group of landing armored grenadiers had already entered the passage. I estimate that as long as you, the Star Knights, go to rescue, you will be intercepted by the other side. The one who should be held responsible is the front-line commander who ordered the direct attack." Sobaek said.

"I understand. This also shows that people like me still lack the keen ability to judge the battlefield! I should have been the first batch to land with the group. Maybe my spiritual perception could also capture the crisis." He sighed heavily again.

Sobaek felt that this guy was overthinking again.

In fact, when most psychics go to the front lines and face the arrows in person, their spiritual sense and perception will be more inclined to capture factors that threaten themselves, and they will be somewhat insensitive to the overall control of the entire army.

This is what my cheap master, the Duke of Saduran, who has already gone to heaven, told me.

Therefore, psychics who are able to both fight and wage war must be geniuses like His Royal Highness Prince Su and the evil star opposite. Why should we be so hard on ourselves?
