Blessings to the beautiful stars

Chapter 507 War
At present, in the starship fleet of the New Emperor Alliance, quite a few ships used to belong to some strange mercenaries.Most of the mercenaries were hired when Zuo Wugang accepted the throne.

At that time, the old Emperor Alliance had just been pierced through the entire territory by the Chudan angel, and then the entire territory was replaced by cosmic fragments from another world.In order to ensure that the cosmic fragments would not be touched by other regimes, Zuo Wu, who had just ascended the throne and was short of manpower, had to hire them, at least to support himself.

Only later, Zuo Wu picked up Xiaohui from the cosmic fragments, and relying on Xiaohui, he monopolized the communication ability of Nuoda Space in the cosmic fragments without the distribution of communication particles.

For other regimes, the inability to establish effective communication in cosmic debris means that the cost of invasion is infinitely high.At least until later, when Ai Shanshan and Duzi started to spread the administrative network of the Xindilian in the space debris, they rarely received reports of the territory being invaded.

These mercenary groups have almost become decorations, but they cannot be allowed to leave directly.

The reason is also very simple, it is all blunt pots.The bald AI originally thought that defending the territory of the space fragments would be a long and protracted battle. After all, defending the territory is a task of a special nature. The minimum requirement for the mercenary group to have good credit and reputation is.

This kind of mercenary group has no shortage of employers. Like a player who has been blinded by the word "limited" in a card game, Dutzi waved his hand and signed a long-term contract with them with unbelievably favorable terms.

Afterwards, a certain mercenary regiment leader named Rong Liangyuan commented that according to the precedent, the recruitment and reorganization of mercenary regiments by some civilizations that desperately need soldiers, the best conditions in history are not half of what Duzi offered.

Although later, the arrival of Xiao Hui made these mercenaries almost useless.

But the contract was signed, and the blunt man who felt that he had lost face decided to be stubborn, and randomly made up a concept of slowly reorganizing the new imperial alliance's own standing army with these reputable mercenaries as the backbone, without even typos After checking, he dumped it to Zuo Wu to see.

Maybe the nonsense in the blunt plan was intentionally made by her. The original intention was to let Zuo Wu read it and veto it, so that she could package her mistakes into a great idea shot down by the short-sighted majesty. If she bragged a little, maybe it would be possible. Hook up with the legendary "Ziwu Valley Strange Conspiracy" in history.

But never thought.

Zuo Wu didn't even look at it, and directly signed the nonsense plan.Ai Shanshan, who was belatedly aware of it, was incomparably furious, and around the inexplicable rules and regulations inside, he and the blunt began to pull extremely hard.

Although Ai Shanshan can be very presumptuous towards Zuo Wu when there is no one around on weekdays, some of their games at night are almost using the "status" as a condiment that can be played with freely.

But in the official business, the document signed by Zuo Wu was irrefutable, and the word emperor showed its weight at this time.

In any case, these mercenaries had actually become the standing army of the Xindilian, and Ai Shanshan and Dutzi just tried to make them look as regular as possible.

It really just seems that the army must have combat power and discipline, and it must always have faith.Patriotism or nationalism is one of the means.

But this is not the case for mercenaries, they have no feelings for the old and new imperial alliances.No matter how good the reputation is, what connects them with Xindilian is only the generous reward that Duzi easily promised.

Things that can be easily obtained are not worth cherishing. Usually, their wages are so high when they are doing nothing.If Xindilian encounters a real hard battle in the future, will it sit on the ground and raise the price, insisting on increasing the money, to test Zuo Wu's "easy" bottom line, and then procrastinate to touch a strong enemy?
The reputation of a mercenary is never to be trusted.

Ai Shanshan, who had been in charge of internal affairs before, could only put their swords and guns into storage, and then train them every day, hoping to slowly bring them back on track.

It's a good idea, but it's of little use to these mercenaries who have already become adults.After working under countless employers for so long, the mercenaries have long learned to handle their employers nicely on the surface.

Even if Ai Shanshan used the training method she had personally received when she was in the old emperor's online control group, it was the same.The more regular the army, the more inclined the soldiers are to be from good families.

The children of a good family are as clean as white paper, and can easily acquire the discipline required by the army; rebellious and aggressive, they are nothing in front of real discipline.

originally.

Ai Shanshan himself has no hope for the training of these veterans.The formation of cohesion does not take ten years or a hundred years, how easy is it?

However, when the circle spreads darkness, it becomes a "black swan event" that reverses everything.A consensus gradually formed in everyone's hearts - only by following Zuo Wu can one survive; only by following Xindilian can one possibly avenge the Jingfu civilization for those relatives and friends who were swallowed by the darkness of the circle.

What's more, it's not just for personal enmity.Just as Zuo Wu declared, revenge against the Jingfu civilization is for the whole galaxy, and there is such a glorious righteousness.

The invisible cohesion had appeared a long time ago, and this moment finally turned into substance.

at this time.

Rong Liangyuan, the mercenary leader, and Wo Jinre, the mollusk, were still together as usual.

The mercenary leader touched his chin, slowly opened the water bottle on his waist, and took a big sip: "I regret it very much now, very regretful. I shouldn't have faced those solemn creations and innocent people when I was at Renlian's side. I chose to watch from the sidelines during the Wisdom Ash Gu. At that time, I went out to fight, and now I don’t have to suffer so much.”

Woking narrowed his eyes: "Come on, His Majesty didn't expect you to choose to fight to the death at that time. Didn't you receive the order to find the old cow's body in Sand Cliff? It's not your job to fight Suzheng Creation Task."

Rong Liangyuan pursed his lips, and the scene of the tauren standing on Mount Everest and placing its shiny badge on the pure white snow unconsciously flashed across his mind.Slowly shaking his head:
"...You don't understand, the scholar died for the confidant. Your Majesty must have known that most of Sand Cliff's corpses will never be found, and most of them are in uninhabited space. His Majesty gave us this order, probably because he wanted us to stay away from space. Through the middle of the dangerous battlefield, we don’t want our lives to be lost in vain.”

"Damn, now I feel that I am really sorry for the salary offered by His Majesty."

Wo Jinre wanted to roll his eyes, but in the end, he just touched the human skin mask on his face, a little depressed: "Who isn't, I seem to be just messing around now."

Rong Liangyuan grinned: "Don't you want to explore beyond the galaxy? The affairs in the galaxy are not your business."

"That's what I said," Wo Jinre sighed, "but I owe His Majesty too much, and if I don't pay it back, I won't feel at ease."

In a daze, Wo Jinre recalled the days when he brought the information about the coming of Sorin Protozoa, wore a human skin mask, and applied for Zuo Wu in the Star Sea Alliance.Later he was caught by Zuo Wu and thrown into prison.

At that time, I only felt shame and humiliation, but I could only endure it for the dream of going beyond the Milky Way, but I still complained about Zuo Wu's unreasonableness, especially when I heard that Zuo Wu was still locked up by him. It was even more so when he subdued the Thorin protozoa while in prison.

I didn't expect that today, I would feel that I owed His Majesty something. I have to say it was a trick of good fortune.

thought here.

Woking suddenly thought of something, and then looked at the mercenary leader beside him: "It's weird, what are you doing with me?"

Rong Liangyuan clasped his hands, and showed his iconic smile again: "It's very simple, you feel that you owe His Majesty, and so do I. And I happen to have an opportunity to repay Your Majesty here, I wonder if you are interested?"

"……Tell me?"

"Look, anyway, you said it yourself, you've been fooling around lately. I heard that you signed up for an interest class for bureaucrat training? Are you interested in giving up your pen and joining the army and joining my tactical team?" Rong Liangyuan asked.

Wo Jinre felt a little unbelievable: "Joining the army? Me? No, no, look at me. I don't work hard. I don't know the grain. Isn't going to the battlefield the same as giving away the head."

But Rong Liangyuan narrowed his eyes slowly: "In what age, you still need to fight hand-to-hand. Don't worry, I want you to be our... guide."

guide?

The doubts in the soft-bodied Wo Jinre's black pearl-like eyes were even more intense. He glanced at the dim space and was even more puzzled: "Guide? Me?! Rong Liangyuan, how much have you drank? I'm no different from everyone else. It's completely blind to the current galaxy."

"This is your fault," the mercenary leader shook his head: "Woking, have you ever fought a war? Or, do you know how wars were fought in the Star Sea era?"

Wo Jinre shook his head.

Rong Liangyuan then explained: "It has been 600 years since 1000 million civilizations entered the star sea. The easy and feasible waterway has been almost proven. From which direction the opponent's attacking fleet may come, I directly predicted it."

Wo Jinnuo frowned: "Couldn't it be better to change the course?"

"Haha, you have also seen how difficult it is for us to open up a new shipping route recently. Even if we find a new shipping route that can be taken, none of us will know exactly where it leads to before we get out of its exit." where,"

The mercenary leader shrugged:

"In the old Star Sea, how many galaxies were no man's land? Even if a small reconnaissance force is sent, if it enters the territory of another civilization, it will be regarded as the most serious invasion and provocation. Even through diplomatic mediation Settled disputes that were unnecessary."

"It was supposed to be a covert military operation, but it has already been known to everyone. It's a shame."

The soft creature seemed to understand but half understood: "What exactly are you trying to say?"

"I want to say that for the star sea before the circle sowed darkness, the outcome of a war is often determined before the actual fighting. One is technology, and the other is economy. As soldiers, we cannot interfere with this, and even the regime itself cannot It is difficult to change it in a short period of time;”

The mercenary leader shook his head, as if he was talking about home cooking: "The only thing that can change in a short period of time is the information we have between each other."

"For an interstellar regime, its own territory is always too large. It is difficult for the army to be stationed in all galaxies. It can only choose a few galaxies with convenient transportation as nodes and station nearby. After deciding where to use troops, send the army Where are you going?"

"So, if you find out the movement of the fleet in the opponent's territory in advance, and make targeted arrangements, when the opponent's fleet enters the hyperspace channel for transfer and can no longer contact the outside world, then attack brazenly, forming a local attack. Fight more and fight less, and you can take the initiative in the war.”

"Hey, we mercenaries rely on this to make a living-a regime always has weak defenses, and my mercenary group is now specialized in mobility. Caught off guard, they'll hire us to fill holes in their defense."

"Then, our task is to contain the enemy, and we will be able to withdraw from the battlefield when we delay until the specified time or when reinforcements from our employer arrive."

When it comes to Xingtou, Rong Liangyuan gestures with his hands and feet: "Got it? The previous wars were actually two people playing cards, drawing each other's single cards to compare their size, just like Tian Ji's horse racing!"

Woking seemed to understand half-understood, but he keenly captured a key word: "You said, the 'before' war?"

"Yes," Rong Liangyuan said with a meaningful smile on his face, "In the past, and I think, the future wars will change. How should I put it, the war situation should return to the form that was popular on Earth thousands of years ago. "

"Earth thousands of years ago?" Woking recalled. Recently, he was attending a cram school for bureaucrats. Earth history was a compulsory course: "Oh, information warfare? Aircraft carriers, satellites, missiles, the trinity of sea, land and air?"

"...If the satellites stationed by the men in gray in Jingfu civilization can still be used, it may be so, but I think most of the satellites in their territory are useless, so the war situation has to be pushed forward Some," Rong Liangyuan grinned: "Have you heard of the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu? Maybe it will become similar to the Han-Hungarian War!"

Wo Jinre didn't believe it: "This is...too primitive, isn't it?!"

"Ha, indeed, so this is our chance," Rong Liangyuan licked his lips:

"What's the difference between Li Guang and Huo Qubing? The former has been losing his way in the battle, and he has never been able to find the right owner, so he can only waste his strength in the end;"

"But Champion Hou is different! He seems to have a natural sense of smell. In the era without satellites, he went deep into the vast desert alone, but he was able to accurately find the king's tent of the Huns, and give the opponent's capital a pot!"

"Now, His Majesty wants to take action against the Jingfu civilization. Finding the current location of the Jingfu civilization is the biggest problem-in order not to be swallowed by the darkness of the circle, they have created many secondary regimes, and they are still in harmony with the original one. Jingfu made a thorough cut."

"That is to say, these secondary regimes are equivalent to the king's camp of the Huns hidden in the vast desert. Whoever can find them in the dark galaxy is the current champion. wide!"

"So, Woking Fever! You predicted that the Thorin may come to our galaxy with just a mask, which shows that you should be a natural guide! Use your mask to predict the location of the mirror civilization, and then we will Go break them!"

Rong Liangyuan stretched out his hand towards the soft creature in front of him:
"Your future should be here, you should be a soldier who is born to adapt to this type of warfare in this era!"
