Him and their stars.

Chapter 253 Thirteen

In Star Fort D-14 of the Gibraltar galaxy, a small fleet consisting of four light cruisers, six destroyers, and fourteen assault ships is undergoing final preparations.

Ah no, light cruisers don't exist, they're just armed cargo ships converted from ranger-class high-speed cruise ships.

At least, that's how it's recorded in the Blue Star Community's naval ship data.

In addition, the executives of this newly established fleet are also having their first meeting in the conference room of D14 Star Fort.

"Okay, starting today, the New World Parade Strike Fleet affiliated to the headquarters of the military order has been announced! The fleet number is still 13! Our home port is the New Lushun Star Port in the New World, and the D14 Star Fort here."

Captain Eleanor Bonaparte, the newly appointed deputy commander of the Thirteenth Fleet, looked at the young and vigorous officers present, and felt a sense of happiness that was about to reach the pinnacle of life.

The fleet was made up of recruits and recruited pirates—the pirates served in electromagnetic handcuffs for a long time—and the officer corps was very young, but she wasn't worried at all.

As Eleanor thought about it, she scanned the faces of the young people sitting on one side of the long table, silently reciting their names.

"Autumn Mountain Hachiman! Mengjiao! Simon Wayali! Li Baolu! Martha Daken! Anton Koushan...and little Ina!"

If they were Eleanor's juniors, they were either already part of the hero group who had proved themselves in the previous Navy Day incident.Of course, this does not mean that they will definitely become real heroes in the cruel actual combat in the future, but at least they must be the young people in the whole community who are most likely to grow into real heroes.

Thinking of this, senior sister's eyes gradually changed... Well, for a heroic beauty like her, this is obviously full of longing and enthusiasm for the future.

For a war madman like her, what could be more fulfilling and happy than building a "own fleet" from scratch?

So, except for Ina Shilica, who was still in a daze, everyone felt a little restless when they met the eager eyes of the senior.

By the way, Miss Lieutenant Ina Shilica is ready to be in a daze for the whole meeting. Anyway, she can't understand all the military meetings so far.

The official number of this new fleet is indeed the Thirteenth Fleet, but it is already regarded as an independent fleet directly under the headquarters.Theoretically, its military and political rank is even equal to that of the First Fleet (Local Fleet) and the Third Fleet (Outer Ring Fleet), which include millions of personnel and more than a thousand warships.

Although Marshal Paris has not yet formally assumed the post of Minister of the Military Command, the Military Command has already begun to carry out his will.

In just one week, this newly formed small fleet received four new Franz IV destroyers and eight Warhammer VI assault ships.And all of them are new ships that have just completed testing for less than a month.

Some people in the Outer Ring Fleet, which was also waiting for the new ship, even said, "We are just yellow-faced women who have fallen out of favor, and that small fleet is Papa Paris's new concubine."

Whatever you want to say, anyway, in a very short period of time, this small fleet has taken shape.

In the frontal fleet battle between the galactic powers, the strength of this fleet can at most act as a strike force, but in Eleanor's view, this is the perfect start.

There will be aircraft carriers, there will be battle cruisers, and there will be fearless one day.She said to herself, and then with a smile on her face, she introduced to everyone the only general present at the main seat.

"Welcome to our new Commander, Brigadier General Stephen Marklove. Let him speak to us."

Eleanor couldn't help but twitched the corners of her mouth when she said this.This was the only place where she felt uncomfortable.However, she is only under the age of twenty-six this year, and she was only promoted to colonel at the beginning of this year.Although this is a universe where there are generals in their twenties running all over the field because of extraordinary power, nobles, bloodlines, and the interference of the will of the universe, and marshals in their early thirties do exist.But in any case, it is impossible for Eleanor to become a general immediately and serve as the commander of a fleet.

The sixty-five-year-old Brigadier General Marklove stood up with a bitter face, scanned the audience, and found that more than [-]% of the officers present were his grandchildren, and his face became even more bitter.He looked at the few old men of the same age at the scene, such as Lieutenant Colonel Kong Qingyu and Lieutenant Colonel Lapon, as well as the two old partners who took office with him, the chief of staff Colonel Finn who didn't know if there would be a plot in the future, And Colonel Carlos, the chief navigator who doesn't know if he will have lines in the future.

From now on, we old guys will probably hug together in this "kindergarten" to keep warm!
The spirit of the universe, how can I, an aircraft carrier captain who has already applied for retirement, become the first commander-in-chief of such a new "experimental fleet".Given the choice, I'd rather retire aboard my beloved Lexington!

However, Marshal Paris communicated with him personally, saying: "This is a newly organized fleet. The ships and people are very young. Young, so they are passionate, so they are full of passion, so they can create Our unimaginable dazzling achievements. However, because we are also young, we will also cause troubles to the point of getting out of hand because of our enthusiasm. That's why we need a stable veteran like you to help us!"

"Your Excellency, I have applied for retirement!"

"Anyway, it's just a few more years of work. Don't you want to enjoy the treatment of a general after retirement?"

"Thanks to you, oh, yes, and thanks to Captain Yu Lian, during the Battle of the West End Galaxy, the armored aircraft carrier Lexington under the command of this officer completed the great feat of taking the lead. You already got a general star in the new year!"

For the "non-professional group" officers like us who were born as fighter aircraft maintenance personnel, this is an absolutely fulfilling career!How else would I apply for retirement?Commodore Marklove thought.

"Then let's get another general star before retiring. Anyway, no one will think too much of this thing." Marshal Paris made a decision involuntarily.

Ever since, Commodore Mark Love, the former captain of the USS Lexington, who had fought side by side with our protagonist in the Battle of the West End Galaxy, became the commander of the newly formed Thirteenth Fleet.

So, what should I do in order to live a happy life without losing my life before I retire?

Thinking of this, the old man already had an idea.

"Thank you everyone. Who, turn off the recorder first. Today we are not a strict combat meeting, but a meeting. Everyone relax, and I am happy to tell everyone what is in my heart."

Brigadier General Marklove, who is wide and fat, glanced around, showing a kind smile like Santa Claus, making eye contact with almost everyone for about a second, trying his best to convey his kindness.

"Everyone can see that this is an experimental force. What is needed is rapid maneuvering and deployment between the mainland and the New World. Therefore, most of you here are very imaginative, and are not ruled by common sense and prejudice. The young talents who are restrained. As for me, an old man, to put it bluntly, it is too much, in order not to be inexplicably surprised by the congressmen and the gentlemen of the National Defense Committee. You also know that once the gentlemen encounter things beyond their common sense, they will always It would be overly stressful.”

Everyone is laughing.Anyone who makes jokes about the people above will always resonate, and this will indeed bring everyone closer.

"So, for this fleet, we still need to divide the work. I will take care of the daily affairs. If you have any troubles, you can come and discuss with me. For combat and training, huh, I am old. I'm exhausted, and I'm just looking at the situation at best. All the specific matters are still in the charge of Colonel Bonaparte... Ugh, and everyone in the staff department."

Thinking of this, the old man glanced out of the corner of his eye at his old partner, Colonel Finn, the current chief of staff of the fleet, and gave him a covert glance.

clear!In the future, I will leave the work of the staff department to the "moonman" boy who wears glasses and has a stomach full of bad water when he looks at it. Just be a mascot who doesn't speak but only stamps.

Colonel Finn also conveyed the above meaning with his eyes.

The two have been working together for more than thirty years, so of course there is such a tacit understanding.

Akina Hachiman vaguely sensed something, and couldn't help pushing his glasses again.He felt that since the day he inexplicably received the transfer order to the Thirteenth Fleet, his living conditions seemed to be farther and farther away from what he thought.

Eleanor was a little overjoyed.She didn't know how sincere the old man was when he said these words, but when he saluted and shook hands with the old man, he was much more sincere.

Ever since, the first meeting after the establishment of the Thirteenth Fleet ended in such a successful way.

However, after the meeting, Eleanor Bonaparte approached the old man in private and proposed to equip some VX space shock bombs.

"This weapon is an inverse research product of antimatter technology, but it has little actual combat value in fleet warfare. It is mainly used to deal with some large military targets with complete defenses during orbital bombing... Colonel Bonaparte, according to the command Plan, our next step should be to go to the distant galaxy for the first fleet training? It would be even better if we can meet pirates and smugglers. What do you want these for?” Fighter aircraft maintainer and equipment engineer Born Brigadier General Mark Love is indeed a knowledgeable weapons expert.

This kind of space shock bomb is of course not as powerful as a neutron bomb in terms of washing the ground, but its operating principle is to extract zero-point energy from deep space for material destruction, which has the effect of breaking defenses and penetrating the ground plus space shocks.It is naturally very useful for dealing with large military targets with strong defenses.

"Maybe we can catch some smuggler bases hiding in some asteroid in the far shore nebula. At this time, we need to use this kind of weapon to attack!" Eleanor explained solemnly.

I won't tell you that it was Yuli who just sent me an encrypted email.Eleanor thought.

I believe you just saw a ghost!This is the secret base of pirates and smugglers, you won't be surprised if you don't grab a big ticket!Commodore Marklove thought.

Although he was so slanderous, he also agreed solemnly: "...Well, what you said makes sense! I will apply to the Outer Ring Military Region and distribute some space shock bombs to us."

At the same time, on the planet New Seville, Yu Lian quickly sent an encrypted email to his senior after finishing the communication between the two technical nerds.

He felt that as a leader, he had done a lot of work today, and he was a little complacent immediately.

Some people have said that as long as you learn how to fill out forms, allocate tasks, and add accountability, you can be a good leader.

Yu Lian felt that although he would not have fallen to this point, he still had to do basic skills such as apportioning tasks.

"There are still limited technicians! Sure enough, it's because there are too many things I want to do, and the strides are too big to hurt XX?"

Yu Lian thought about it for a while, and immediately thought of a letter from Uncle Karl, who was doing maintenance in Xinyumen.I have seen this old man's craftsmanship. Even without the great power of "I'm thinking" who became famous in later generations like Eisen Tamir Xiaobai, as an executor, he couldn't be more perfect.

If Eisen and Tamir are really going to recharge, they really need a caretaker.

...Forget it, let's wait until the Red Star Institute becomes official.The old man is the maintenance team leader in Xinyumen City. There is no danger and he still has an iron job. This will directly force him to change jobs, which will only embarrass the old man.

In addition, for the senior sister, let an experienced but unambitious veteran like Mark Love serve as the over-the-top officer, and she should be able to keep an eye on her.It really doesn't work, isn't there the double insurance of Hachiman?

Well, a born fierce chick is paired with a born naughty B, is there a better partner in the universe than this?

However, Brigadier General Mark Love is actually an expert in aircraft carrier warfare, and he only has a few rangers who can only carry one or two squadrons of fighter planes, which is really a waste of his ability.Yu Lian also hoped that his old man could train Bao Lu and his girlfriend to be excellent aircraft carrier battle commanders before retiring.

It is also common sense that excellent carrier-based aircraft pilots have the potential to become excellent aircraft carrier commanders.What's more, Li Baolu's title of "Advancing Eagle" in the future is not entirely based on the record of the pilot.

All in all, the Thirteenth Fleet, the New World cruise strike fleet, has a lot to do!
I have to think of a way to avoid the "New Continent Arms Limitation Treaty" and get an aircraft carrier... Speaking of which, changing a cruise ship into an aircraft carrier is also a traditional art for people like me, right?

Shi AA probably listened to the whole process of communicating with the Earth, and seeing that Yu Lian was lost in thought, he took the initiative to send a communication signal.

"I have to remind you that in terms of research, we can only do auxiliary work, which is why I was originally created! In terms of research, we are good at calculations and the construction of existing information... But not good at imagination and creativity.”

I know this too!I still saw it from Miss Allenda's "Slug Breeding Notes".Besides, I feel that if it weren't for this reason, you would be dead already.

"It seems that neurons still can't replace the brain!"

"I, I also think that you mammals think too much because you use your brain to think. That's why you are more likely to be overwhelmed by hormones and dopamine... Sorry, I got carried away!"

Yu Lian took back the vinegar he just took out, saying that as long as this bug maintains such a consistent style, future communication will be very smooth.

"Speaking of which, you have been in this galaxy for two hundred years, do you know anything about that far shore nebula?" Yu Lian asked.

"The Far Shore Nebula? Oh, that's what you call it! The natural environment there is indeed very dangerous, and there are almost no transition paths. Therefore, Earl Salvin often enters there by boat alone, and some mysterious people with him Friends meet."

"..."

"I feel that your smile is very dangerous now. Is it due to the excessive secretion of hormones and dopamine?"

Yu Lian closed the test tube, took back the spiritual derivative, looked at the time, and found that it was already after five o'clock in the morning.Naturally, he couldn't fall asleep, so he just closed his eyes for a little refreshment.

In fact, he must not feel tired at all.

By the third ring, he was becoming less and less like a human being, and with the permanent buff of "Life Source" that makes him radiant with vitality, it is estimated that even if the liver lasts for a whole week, it will not be a big problem.

However, Yu Lian also knows that fatigue in the nature of mysticism is actually very anti-scientific and unconventional, and in most cases it is very hidden, and by the time you really realize it, it will be too late.Therefore, all experienced supernatural beings will tell their juniors to rest more when they can, and eat and drink as much as possible when they can.

Anyway, they are all extraordinary people, so can they still suffer from gastroenteritis?
While closing his eyes and resting his body, Yu Lian digested the new extraordinary ability he had acquired in his mind. He just "rested" until after seven o'clock, and then went to the restaurant on the first floor of the hotel to have breakfast.

The so-called eating time, this is the law of healthy life.Just because I just finished a seafood barbecue and wheat soda three hours ago, I can't disrupt my already formed life pattern.

Breakfast is self-service, and because it is the official guest house of the Garrison Command, the variety and taste of the meals are not bad.

Yu Lian ate another six slices of toast, three fried eggs and three slices of fried bacon, a bowl of meat porridge, a plate of fruit salad, a small chocolate cake, plus a glass of milk and a glass of fruit juice, before he felt satisfied.

By the time he changed into his uniform and went out, the orderly non-commissioned officer with an unimportant name and the non-commissioned officer who was a guest tour guide were already waiting for him.

"Captain, today's itinerary should be to meet with the leaders of the militia organizations in various regions and have lunch! In the afternoon, it is time to check the preparation and training status of the militia organizations. Because according to the original plan, tomorrow is to observe them The situation of the actual combat exercise, so today should be the militia organization department staying in Yuewan City." The non-commissioned officer lady with a face value of 2 said in a sweet voice as a guest tour guide.She has now started guest jobs as a secretary.

"Understood!" Yu Lian said with a smile: "Also, please apply for a transportation boat from the headquarters. After the exercise is over tomorrow, I will rush to the planet Lumina."

The two non-commissioned officers quickly exchanged glances. The male non-commissioned officer who was on duty and the driver hesitated for a moment, and said: "...the headquarters for suppressing the Lumina rebels is located on the R4 orbital space station above the Lumina star. superior."

President Suppression...

Yu Lian rolled his eyes in his heart, but on the surface he smiled amiably and said: "I understand, but I really need to go to the scene to investigate. Don't worry, I have already got through with Brigadier General Lu Ben and the others. Just report it up."
