Chapter 1779: Our army’s greatest advantage is our brute force
Mr. Qi stayed where he was, watching Yu Lian finish his sigh, and then he slowed down his tone: "Yes, compared to the unruly Lumina people, most Earthlings are much more numb. They are numb to the senses of war and are indifferent to the coming of the Empire. To them, there is actually no difference between the slaves of the Emperor of the Empire and the citizens of the Community. To them, this is a war that is not worth dying for."

After half a century of struggle, I'm back to square one. If I had known this earlier, wouldn't I have stopped struggling?
Isn't Victoria Lee also a traitor? The Empire was kind to him in the beginning.

If we had not rebelled, would our names now include the middle name of Saint Raven?
The above words are actually quite representative, and Yu Lian has heard such voices more than once.

However, Yu Lian was still quite curious and asked, "So, you have also heard these words in New Shenzhou?"

"It's mainly in Xinshuntian. Of course, there's also Brother Bai's retelling of what he saw and heard on Earth."

If these are Mr. Bai’s original words, it would be weird if they didn’t include the F word, Yu Lian thought.

Mr. Qi said: "As for New China, hahahaha, it was originally a home built by a group of unruly cowboys and pioneers in a remote area. Even during the imperial period, they were only able to control it. They were not submissive before, and now they are even more submissive."

"That's why I always felt that this remote place is just what I want." Yu Lian said with a smile.

Of course, this “remote country” was before the awakening of the Tower of Babel.

"So that's why your immigration program is at a minimum level."

"...An empire of human supremacy will not adopt a systematic discriminatory policy towards newly conquered areas. The empire will definitely treat the people of Earth as its own people. The dragon kings will definitely enslave all races equally. There is no difference between being enslaved by the visible dragon kings of the empire and being enslaved by the invisible masters." Yu Lian had to agree. He also had to admit that the most powerful reactionaries in the world must be those who have a full understanding of their own reaction, and even do not feel ashamed but proud of it.

Mr. Qi laughed and said, "There is still a difference. At least the dragon kings are good-looking!"

You said this to me, didn't you? Humph, the sarcastic tone of a scholar. Yu Lian said expressionlessly, "Yes. Even if I surrender, I will still be a marquis..."

"Father-in-law. You don't have to look down on yourself, father-in-law." Mr. Qi corrected.

You don't have to read it in reduplication. Yu Lian rolled his eyes in his heart and said seriously, "As for you, you can at least become the son-in-law of the duchess of the eighth family, right?"

"Yes, the son of an eighth family... No! More than eight families! When I was young, I looked much better than you." Mr. Qi raised his head proudly again, not feeling ashamed but proud.

Although the direction of the rebuttal was a bit wrong, Yu Lian still admired the gentleman very much and gave him a thumbs up immediately.

He immediately stopped joking and said seriously, "So, you see. Yu Lian, this is our country, our universe, and our era. Compared to what we are doing, this war is nothing."

Yu Lian fell into a brief silence. He now truly felt the difficulty of walking. On this narrow one-way street, he could easily fall into the abyss at any time, but the morning star at the other end was so dim and looming.

However, he could feel courage gathering deep in his heart. "Indeed, compared to our ideals, war is just a small matter. Hahahaha, I am a soldier, but I still need the guidance of a scholar like you who has little knowledge of military affairs."

"Workers don't need to be enlightened, they just need to be educated and help each other." Mr. Qi said in a calm tone: "People, after all, have to fulfill themselves."

Yu Lian felt that this was not in line with the old man's usual style.

"I was going to write this in my new novel, telling the story of a drifter finding himself. Unfortunately, I don't have time to write. As for me, even though I'm old, I still have a lot of things I want to write. I should be considered a people's literary and artistic worker." Mr. Qi stared at Yu Lian:

"Hey, war hero, when will I have time?"

Yu Lian said calmly: "If everything goes well, the fleet will arrive at the Shanhai Channel in early July."

Mr. Qi still looked directly at Yu Lian, a trace of worry flashed across his face: "Very good. Then, I will definitely do a good job of logistics. Although New Shenzhou is poor, it can always afford to support the three million soldiers of Yu Fleet. But, Yu Lian, is this really the only plan?"

Yu Lian's face was humility and calm, but his tone was unquestionable: "This is the safest way. I have convinced all the senior officers. Moreover, once we start to implement it, we can no longer stop. Sir, the so-called tactics are nothing more than using our existing advantages to the extreme. And our advantage, needless to say, is only our brute force."

"If it is passed down to future generations, you will be called the bravest among the three armies, ready to wield a sword and mount a horse."

I am embarrassed to accept this compliment. Yu Lian smiled shyly.

Yu Lian's battle plan was of course not complicated. Since the fleet had already successfully reunited in advance, it was halfway to success. With everyone's current combat power, it would be almost impossible for the Empire to intercept unless it mobilized two or three squadrons.

However, it must be admitted that after a great battle and a long march, the ships and soldiers were indeed exhausted. The high spirits and morale could not cover up the physical and mechanical limits.

Materialists must acknowledge this fact.

In the process of moving to the mountain and sea waterway, they will inevitably be chased and intercepted by the imperial army. Their own courage and the combat effectiveness of the remaining fleet may frighten all the imperial generals, but these people are, after all, part of the most powerful military group in this generation of civilization. Under the reactionary but strict imperial military law and the reactionary but logically self-consistent and very vital military (meow) national (woo) ideology, it is impossible for them to really sit back and watch themselves escape.

In this situation, any war of scale and intensity could cause unacceptable heavy losses. Only two of the six main ships were left, which was not a big deal, but if even one tenth of the two million soldiers died in battle, Yu Lian would be heartbroken.

He knew very well that his soldiers were all veterans. Even the rookies sent from the mainland had become elite after fighting a few battles with him. With them as seeds, he could raise another army of tens of millions in New China.

In other words, as long as they are still there, they will be the spiritual pillar of all the community soldiers and civilians who still want to resist.

So, the first thing I have to consider is how to lead everyone to arrive at the new China safely.

But why do we need to “lead”?

Chief of Staff Mkawa, Captain Tovey, Admiral Lei and others are actually experienced veterans. They have much more experience in running away and fighting bad battles than himself.

Why can't we let them lead the fleet to move to the Shanhai Channel, while we act as MT to attract the opponent's attention?

Yu Lian swore to the spirit of the universe that no one in this universe knew how to attract hatred better than himself.

This was the case in my previous life when I only had a second-hand ship; but in this life, I have the Xunli.

This ship, which costs as much as a Titan and is covered with mystic units, runs even faster than a neutrino-engined god-class ship. Moreover, there are dragons, fighters, torpedo ships, and psychics on board. Is there any other warship in the world that is more in line with your aesthetics and can better exert your combat effectiveness?

Mr. Qi asked, "So, the plan started when you seized the dragon boat?"

"This is really just going with the flow. I've explained it many times, Mr. Qi, I'm not the type to plan everything out, just find a general direction and do it." Yu Lian touched his chin, his eyes lit up: "What does it mean when the time comes, heroes all work together? This is probably the feeling." "So, single-handedly breaking through the bridge of a dreadnought is also part of the execution?"

Yu Lian smiled: "What else? It's not like I'm the one who wants to be in the spotlight."

"Is not it?"

"Am I that kind of person?"

"do not you?"

The old man and the young man stared at each other for a few seconds. Mr. Qi then slapped his forehead and said with emotion, "Hahaha, how can a scholar who has little knowledge of military affairs comment on the field of war? Compared to what you did at the God of War Festival, today's madness is at most an appetizer."

So, I'm really not crazy, everything is the result of careful calculation. Yu Lian wanted to say this, but considering that he had said something like "When the time comes, heroes will all work together", it would be a bit self-contradictory to say this now.

Mr. Qi once again stared at Yu Lian and said goodbye with his eyes: "If I were there, I would at least give you another bowl of hand-rolled noodles. We Guanzhong men..."

Yu Lian interrupted, "Come to think of it, I've been wanting to ask this for years. Shouldn't we eat dumplings when we get on the bus and noodles when we get off? Why did we eat spicy oil and noodles last time?"

"..."

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

"I'm really not looking for trouble, it's just that my obsessive compulsive disorder is really unbearable."

"Well, I'm sorry, I really don't know how to make dumplings." Mr. Qi showed a guilty expression for the first time.

Well, this sounds very logical. Looking at the ashamed Mr. Qi, Yu Lian also felt a little guilty. We are all adults,
"But I am very good at rolling noodles. Hehehe, brother Yu Lian, you have to know that anyone who comes to a new environment will always be looked up to as long as he can show off his good cooking skills, and the subsequent work will be much easier. This is actually the cognition engraved in our human genes."

Yu Lian frowned slightly and fell into thought, then he had some enlightenment: "I understand! Thank you for your guidance, sir."

"I'm not going to teach you anything. Haha, but for people like you, you can always understand something inexplicably, right? At this time, your gratitude is like a mockery. Of course, for people like you, war is just a test. Compared to the ideal you want to achieve, it should be like this!"

Yu Lianli saluted to the gentleman: "See you in New Shenzhou. The fleet arrived first, and I will be a little later."

"I didn't think it would be so smooth, but maybe this is also part of fate." Mr. Qi smiled and said, "I won't do anything artistic. Young man, go and light up the sea of ​​stars!"

Yu Lian shuddered and felt that this was even more awkward than the whole literary and artistic thing.

After finishing the communication with Mr. Qi, when Yu Lian just walked out of the room, he suddenly saw that the starry sky outside the porthole had changed from sparkling gems to elongated rays of light. The deep and mysterious void was also inexplicably covered with a layer of hazy gray fog.

The Earth warships accompanying it seemed to be swallowed up by the gray fog, and even their vague outlines could no longer be seen clearly.

This was of course a visual misalignment caused by the fleet entering the jump channel. If an ordinary person saw this scene with their naked eyes, they would most likely feel nauseous and vomit or even faint on the spot, and in the worst case, there would even be sudden death.

"Ordinary people should not look directly at the power of the stars."

This is the advice that early space explorers gave to newbies. There is no way around it. The early exploration period of any industry is full of superstition.

There is now a scientific explanation for this phenomenon, which is that the misalignment of space and vision will inevitably lead to disorders in the body's functions. It is a normal reaction for people with underlying cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases to die suddenly.

However, for Yu Lian, this effect was completely insignificant. He even overclocked his vision with interest to see if he could really see his warship in this chaotic and blurry gray fog, or even use his cosmic intuition to perceive more mysterious cosmic parameters and capture hidden channel information.

He would probably need this ability soon.

Naturally, while in the state of jump, the ship also began to tremble, as if it was stretched out from the center of an earthquake, but this certainly did not affect Yu Lian at the moment.

Yu Lian stayed there for a long time. When the heavy gray fog outside the porthole began to dissipate, the stars began to twinkle, and the outline of the ship gradually became clear, he continued to move forward.

In the garden on the top floor of the ship, he soon saw Feifei walking towards him, with that impeccable business smile still on her face.

Well, okay, the skin that appears now is Colonel Fina Li, General Yu's adjutant. Having said that, it's a bit too high-end for a lieutenant general's adjutant to be a colonel, but that's not the point.

The point is, you should address people by their job titles when you are working.

"Adjutant Fei." Yu Lian nodded reservedly, like a serious general who did his job impartially.

"General Lian." Feifei also stood at attention and saluted modestly, like an elite adjutant who did his job impartially.

"The entire fleet has left the Far Shore Nebula and arrived safely in the Isai System without any damage."

"Very good." Yu Lian looked down at the time on the terminal.

It was now exactly June 834, 6, 1:11 galactic standard time, more than a day later than originally planned. Of course, considering that the fleet had completed the rendezvous ahead of schedule and had also given the pursuing Imperial devils a slap in the face, the delay was worth it.

Now that they have passed through the nebula, the immediate decision is what the fleet's next move should be.

"In addition, there is also the latest news from the observation station in General Lu's galaxy." Feifei raised her head, her bright peach eyes filled with joy: "It's good news."

The so-called General Lu Galaxy is the entrance to the Lucknar Corridor next door. There is also an Imperial fleet there, led by a Letalin general. If we calculate the time, even if they maintain a basic constant speed cruise state, they should reach the entrance of the corridor.

Of course, if they marched at a forced pace, they might have already approached him and could launch a righteous flank attack at any time.

However, Yu Lian can basically rule out this possibility.

He scanned a report and then raised his head in disbelief: "The 3rd Patrol Fleet actually repelled the Imperial Tosen Fleet in the General Lu Star System?"
