Interstellar Soldier

Chapter 576 Long-term plan
Greenwich Line, "Advance" Post.

Although this is an outpost built by the human legion thousands of years ago, and it is also the central outpost of the third war zone in this area, this outpost was originally an asteroid with a diameter of about a thousand kilometers.At that time, in order to assist the Human Legion to defend the vital Greenwich Line of Defense, the Hidden Eldar used the most advanced technology to transport the asteroid from more than ten light years away, and assisted the Human Legion to transform it into a space fortress.It's just that in the thousand years since then, the largest and most well-equipped fortress on the Greenwich defense line has never played its due value.After barely maintaining it for hundreds of years, it was finally transformed into a frontier outpost.

It's called transformation, but it's actually just sealing up some defensive facilities, so as to reduce the size of the garrison and reduce daily maintenance expenses.

During the Fifth Greenwich War, there were nearly a thousand legions stationed here at the most, and with the fortress officers and soldiers, the total strength was close to 500 million.It's just that after it was converted into a frontier outpost, the number of officers and soldiers stationed here never exceeded 100 million, and sometimes it was less than 50.However, before the war broke out, the Human Federation began to mobilize, and the third theater sent additional troops in time.When the Silicon Charm army crossed the Greenwich line of defense and entered the North Fourth District, the 150 million officers and soldiers at the assistant "forward" outpost did not flinch, and activated the sealed defense facilities as quickly as possible.Although after that, the outpost was attacked by thousands of silicon demon legions in turn, and even lost part of the surface positions, the defenders did not give up until reinforcements from the Zhixing tribe arrived.

In fact, the "advance" outpost was also one of the few outposts on the Greenwich defense line that did not fall.

When Yang Yi and the others arrived, the repair work of the outpost was still in progress.Although they repelled the powerful enemies surrounding the outpost and helped the defenders eliminate the enemies who invaded the outpost, the reinforcements from the Weaving Star Clan did not help the defenders repair the outpost, mainly because the fortress was built with the technology provided by the Hidden Spirit Clan. , and the Weaving Star Clan doesn't know much about the Hidden Spirit Clan's technology.In addition, this outpost belongs to the third war zone.

The weaving star tribe's reinforcements are only stationed here temporarily, and have no plans to stay permanently.

Just like that, the weaving star tribe's reinforcements did not enter the outpost, but stayed near the outpost, waiting for the arrival of the human army led by Yang Yi.

Although he knew why the Star Soul Queen refused to help the third war zone repair the "advance" outpost, but Yang Yi was a soldier, and a soldier in the third war zone, so naturally he couldn't stay out of it.After arriving, he didn't immediately go to meet the commander of the weaving star tribe's reinforcements, but went to meet the commander of the outpost.

Major General Yan Yikuan, like Yang Yi, was promoted not long ago.

Of course, unlike Yang Yi, Yan Yikuan has served in the army for decades, starting as a grassroots officer and gradually promoted to become a general.

No matter from which point of view, he is an admirable soldier.

A few months ago, when the defenders at other outposts either died in battle or fled, he not only did not escape, but also stood up after the death of the legion commander, organized the officers and soldiers of the outpost, and used limited weapons and equipment to invade The powerful enemy fought fiercely for several months.Without him, this outpost would have fallen long ago.It was his outstanding performance in the battle guarding the outpost that he was promoted from colonel to major general and became the commander of the outpost.

This job is not too big, but it is not small.

If it's just an ordinary outpost, then the outpost commander is nothing.However, the "advanced" outpost is the largest in the direction of Greenwich, and it is also one of the few outposts that has not been seriously damaged. Therefore, the identity of Yan Yikuan, the commander of the outpost, is not simple.It can be said that in the short term, whether it is the human legion or the reinforcements of the Star Weaving Clan, military operations launched on the Greenwich defense line will use this outpost as a base, and the outpost garrison will be needed to assist in the replacement of the legion, logistical support, and treatment of the wounded. with support.The Star Soul Empress is high above her, so naturally she wouldn't take a small outpost commander seriously, but Yang Yi couldn't do it.

Seeing Yan Yikuan, Yang Yi believed the rumors about him.

Although the Human Federation mobilized for war in advance, and the third war zone also sent reinforcements in time, this war came too suddenly, and the army of Silicon Demon broke through the Greenwich defense line without warning, appearing in the human race. Legion behind.The rear route is cut off by the enemy, not to mention grassroots officers and soldiers, even senior officers may not be able to stabilize.At that time, at the various outposts on the Greenwich defense line, the officers and soldiers were able to stay at their posts, and it was very good that they did not flee.The same was true at the "Advanced" outpost. It was rumored that the commander of the legion at that time was frightened to death.At this time, Yan Yikuan stepped forward and first organized the officers and soldiers under him.Not long after, the regiment commander from the Third Theater Command died in an accident, and Yan Yikuan became the highest-ranking officer in the post.As for whether the army commander died in an accident, I am afraid only Yan Yikuan knows, at least it is rumored that the death of the army commander is directly related to him.

He is a genuine soldier, and it can be seen from his eyes that he has gone through too many tests.

Yang Yi is looking at Yan Yikuan, and Yan Yikuan is also looking at him.

"It seems that the rumors are not false, it really is a hero born a boy."

"General Yan has won the award. I just climbed up to the big tree and was lucky to get some credit. In front of General Yan, I am just a junior."

Yan Yikuan nodded slightly, and then asked Yang Yi to sit down.

"I heard that General Yan is a straightforward person, so I won't be too wordy." After sitting down, Yang Yi said, "In a few days, the human legions under my command will arrive one after another. As expected, the Weaving Star Clan's reinforcements have arrived." I have made a battle plan for marching into the Northern Alpha galaxy. According to the order issued by the military department, I will command the legion under my command to assist the reinforcements of the Weaving Star Clan to launch an attack. That is to say, I will not stay here for too long. However, the ones arriving one after another The army needs a place to be stationed, and it also needs the necessary logistical support, and General Yan has to worry about it."

"It's my job to provide logistical support for the combat troops. General Yang doesn't have to worry."

Seeing that Yan Yikuan answered in the affirmative, Yang Yi felt relieved.

"It's just that I don't know how many legions General Yang has under his command, and how many legions he intends to bring with him?" Yan Yikuan paused for a moment before saying, "Don't misunderstand, General Yang. The barracks the Legion needs."

"Not many, at most two hundred legions, and the ones following me are only a part of them, maybe only twenty."

Yan Yikuan was slightly taken aback, his expression was very surprised.

"The specific situation is still unclear. After all, the situation is tense now. The military department has no extra legions to send to me. I can only go to various colonial galaxies to recruit officers and soldiers and form legions by myself. Although some of the legions followed me to participate in the Beacon Mars The defense battle, but the officers and soldiers from the colonial galaxy have almost no actual combat experience. Letting them go to the Northern Alpha galaxy is tantamount to letting them die. Of course, my task is only to assist the reinforcements of the Weaving Star Clan, not the main force, so I also use It is not necessary to bring too many legions. The most important thing is to see if the logistical support is better. If the logistical support is unsustainable, no matter how many legions you bring to the expedition, it will be useless."

"General Yang, do you really think you can break into the Northern Alpha system?"

When Yan Yikuan said this, Yang Yi raised his head and looked at him.

"That's right, the reinforcements of the Weaving Star Clan are indeed very strong. In just one day, they defeated the army of silicon demons besieging the outpost, and then assisted us in destroying the enemies who landed. As far as I know, there was only one Weaving Star at that time Clan Legion landing post to assist us in combat." Yan Yikuan took a deep breath and said, "The problem is that marching into the Northern Alpha Galaxy is not about regaining lost ground. Even if the Weaving Star Clan's reinforcements are very strong, they may not be able to cross the Greenwich Meteorite Belt smoothly. Even if they can, in the After entering the Northern Alpha Galaxy, we will also encounter stubborn resistance from the enemy. Thousands of years ago, we assembled all the forces of the Galactic Alliance, and the Human Federation also completed the war mobilization. After entering the Northern Alpha Galaxy, we failed to achieve a real victory. Now , only relying on the little reinforcements from the Weaving Star Clan and the [-] legions commanded by General Yang, can they defeat the powerful Silicon Charm Alliance? I am not doubting General Yang's courage and courage, but General Yang really thinks that he can rely on himself If he can win the final victory with his strength, then what General Yang possesses is only courage and guts."

When Yan Yikuan said these words, Yang Yi did not refute, but listened carefully.

"General Yang, I know this is an order from the military department, and we have no right to act without authorization, but General Yang, please think twice about sending troops."

"General Yan means..."

"No matter what, there is no harm in keeping an extra hand."

Yang Yi was taken aback for a moment, then nodded again, expressing that he understood what Yan Yikuan meant, but he was not in a hurry to express his opinion.

"The Galactic Federation has passed a war resolution. All civilizations, including the top civilizations such as the Railing Clan, will immediately enter a state of war and mobilize for war. As expected, reinforcements from the Raling Clan will arrive soon Waiting for reinforcements from other civilizations to arrive before launching a counterattack will not only increase the chances of winning, but also reduce combat casualties. In any case, General Yang should not have traded in at this time."

"The problem is, the order from the military department is very clear."

"General Yang is the general in charge of the army and has the right to make decisions based on the actual situation."

Yang Yi pondered for a while, then nodded slightly, and said: "General Yan is right, we really need to make long-term plans. However, the army under my command has already moved out, and it is impossible to let it return to its original station. Besides, Doing so is tantamount to directly violating the orders issued by the military department."

"It's a small matter. There is enough space in the outpost to accommodate General Yang's army."

After Yan Yikuan said this, Yang Yi nodded in agreement.In fact, after Yang Yi said so much, what he was waiting for was Yan Yikuan's words.
