Chapter 453: Get it done in one fell swoop

Views:

Otis shot without any suspense.

When Somm found danger, his original energy converter had been controlled by Otis, and the original energy he bulged out in a hurry became the shackles that bound him. Som didn't react until his whole body was under control and unable to move, but it was too late.

Next, Somm returned to the position of commander accompanied by Carlson, and then Carlson gave the order to concentrate the army in the name of Somm.

Although Carlson gave orders from the beginning to the end, Somm didn't say a word, but in the eyes of the staff, Somm was on the sidelines. Since there is no objection, there is no problem. Besides, Carlson is the commander of the Legion Engineering Corps and has a good relationship with Somme. More importantly, the most important thing now is to complete the construction of the barracks on time. Carlson's order is Somm's order.

Subsequently, Carlson arranged specific tasks for the various staff members. The main thing was to let the staff members go to the grassroots units, directly issue orders to the grassroots officers, and let the grassroots officers take the troops to designated locations. They should not take them without receiving other orders. action.

Of course, this is just to serve as a staff member of the Legion Command.

As the staff members left one after another, Lei Ling soldiers dressed as officers and soldiers of the special reconnaissance brigade arrived one after another and took control of the legion headquarters.

The operation went smoothly, and even Yang Yi couldn't believe that he could control the legion command so easily.

Of course, this is nothing strange.

Prior to this, Carlson had said that under the Fleet Command, no one believed that there were enemies on the Slag Star, otherwise they would not be so careless. As long as they can reach the legion command and control the legion commander Somme smoothly, they will be able to control the entire legion command.

However, this is only the first step.

Although Somme is the supreme commander here, his official status is the commander of the Ninth Army, only temporarily serving as the commander-in-chief of the three legions. In other words, what Carlson began to give was only a verbal order from Somme, which only had a short-term effect. Before long, the other two army commanders will send an inquiry message, asking Somme to explain why he wants the troops to go to the designated place to stand by. If Somm's order comes from a higher level, that is, the Fleet Command, then at this time, he has to forward the relevant order to the other two army commanders. If this is not the case, Somme must give a reasonable explanation for the order.

According to the tradition of the Lei Ling Clan Corps, if the order is not from the superior and Somm does not give a reasonable explanation, then the officer commander of the same level has the right to ignore the order he has issued, and if necessary, he can report the situation to the superior and request the superior. Withdraw unreasonable orders.

Obviously, at this time, it is an unreasonable order to let the officers and soldiers of the three corps, including all engineering units, put down their work and go to the designated place to stand by. As long as Somm did not give a reasonable explanation, the other two army commanders would definitely contact the fleet command.

In other words, it is useless to control Somm, and he must be instigated.

Although everyone was not very relieved, Yang Yi did not doubt Carlsen, handed him the job of instigating the rebel Somme, and gave him a high level of trust.

Of course, Yang Yi is not without second-hand preparation.

It would be great to be able to counter the Somme, even if it failed to counter the Somme, it would not have much impact. The big deal is to launch an attack in advance.

After Shen Chengwen arrived with the officers and soldiers of the special investigation brigade, Yang Yi asked Carlson to leave with Somme.

"Just received the news from Yuyang, ten Liuying ships are already in place, ready to launch an attack."

Yang Yi nodded slightly and said, "Is there no other news?"

Shen Chengwen shook his head, he knew what Yang Yi was asking.

According to Carlson's account, more than ten hours will be the deadline for the completion of the barracks. Although Carlson could not be sure that the large forces would arrive at this time, the Fleet Command did not revise the completion date, which was enough to prove that the one hundred legions were already on the way. Yang Yi deduced from this that the Lei Ling clan's large forces would definitely arrive at this time, and even if they did not immediately enter the Slag Star, they would rendezvous with the fleet.

You know, just transporting a hundred legions requires a large number of landing ships. If these regiments are fully loaded, at least one thousand large landing ships are needed. Among other things, just transporting a regiment’s heavy equipment requires several landing ships. If the accompanying engineering troops carry a large amount of heavy engineering equipment and the materials necessary for the construction of the forward fortress, more transport spacecraft will definitely be needed. With so many troops on the battlefield, warships are bound to escort them. In other words, it is not just a legion that has arrived, but a huge fleet. Under normal circumstances, the transport fleet will rendezvous with the previously arrived fleet before sending the legion to the barracks where it is stationed.

Obviously, a fleet of thousands of spaceships certainly cannot act secretly.

Even the Lei Ling clan, it is impossible to build a transport spacecraft based on the standards of a battleship. More importantly, the transport spacecraft mainly operates in the safe area controlled by its own side, and generally does not go to the front line, so it does not need too strong combat power, and it does not need to use advanced equipment for covert operations.

To this end, Yang Yi deployed five Liuying ships to monitor and patrol the periphery.

As long as the Lei Ling Clan's transport fleet is discovered, it is equivalent to the discovery of the Lei Ling Clan's large force.

According to Yang Yi's arrangement, the attack was launched only when the Lei Ling Clan's transport fleet was discovered and it was determined that the Lei Ling Clan's large force was about to arrive.

Occupying the Corps headquarters ahead of time was just to prepare for the next attack.

Not long after, a staff member sent a message that the grassroots troops had arrived at the designated place to stand by in accordance with the order and asked whether the legion command had any other instructions.

Yang Yi did not go to Carlson, but gave the order to put the troops on standby according to the arrangements made before.

At this time, even calling Carlson was useless.

Time flies quickly, but the Lei Ling Clan's movement is faster, so Yang Yi also sighs very much. After all, the Lei Ling Clan is a top civilization, and its army will not be worse no matter how bad it is. In less than two hours, all the troops of the three legions, as well as all the engineering troops, arrived at the designated standby area in accordance with the order, and successively sent inquiries to them, wondering why Som asked them to go to the designated standby area.

Yang Yi did not delay any more, and sent someone to call Carlson over.

The result was not ideal. Although Carlson personally came forward and moved out Prince Arlington, Somme was clearly the confidant of the King Wanluo, at least he was loyal to the King Wanluo, and did not listen to Carlsen’s words, nor I believe that the person I saw was Prince Arlington.

Obviously, there is no way to instigate him.

Yang Yi was very disappointed, but this was what he expected. If Somm can easily instigate rebellion, then the Lei Ling Clan Legion will be too fragile.

Afterwards, Shen Chengwen hurried over.

As expected, after the three legions all reached the standby area, the other two legion commanders doubted Somm’s order and rushed over in person.

"Are they here?"

"It's coming soon. The scouts I arranged have found them. They will be there in a few minutes, and they all have entourage. They are all officers, and they are definitely not weak."

"Go get ready and wait for my order."

Shen Cheng didn't hear much wordiness, and called a few officers and soldiers who accompanied him to leave.

"You have to deal with them?"

Yang Yi nodded, he didn't tell Carlson about the second-hand arrangement.

"Here?" Carlson was surprised, even shocked. "They are all legion commanders. Their combat power is equivalent to or even stronger than your human-queen fighters. Even if you also have a lot of human-queen fighters, and they are strong in combat power, they are fighting here, I'm afraid..."

"Don't worry, everything is under control."

"But… "

Before Carlson could say anything, Otis walked over.

Seeing Otis, Carlson was taken aback for a moment, and then he closed his mouth. He only remembered that Yang Yi was a human being, and ignored that there were a group of female warriors of the Star Weaver family beside Yang Yi. Perhaps it’s very difficult for humans like Yang Yi to deal with two legion commanders who have the strength of a warrior, but for the female warriors of the Star Weaver tribe, especially the captain of the female warrior guard, Otis , Then it's nothing.

You know, Otis' combat power is far above the commander of the legion, and even the commander of the fleet.

In the Star Weaver Clan, Otis belongs to one of the most powerful beings, perhaps only under the Queen. Therefore, the only one in the Lei Ling Clan whose combat power is above her is the Wanluo War Emperor.

Although Carlson's speculation is not accurate, it is not much worse.

As long as Otis took the shot, it would be no problem to deal with the two legion commanders.

"What's the matter?"

"I just received the news that the transport fleet has appeared and is expected to arrive in eight hours. In addition, the Lei Ling tribe's fleet has sent several small warships, which should have been there to pick them up."

"Just a few small warships?"

"The transport fleet is escorted by warships. Although the situation is not very clear, there must be many escort warships, and there may be battleships among them."

Yang Yi's brow jumped a few times, which was not in his plan.

The key is the enemy's capital ship. If there is, then the problem is serious.

"However, the problem is not too serious."

"Are you sure?"

Otis smiled faintly, and said: "The Yukage is the most powerful small warship of the Star Weavers. It may not be able to defeat a large-scale fleet, but if ten Liukage ships are dispatched together, it will definitely cause big trouble to the enemy. It is naturally not difficult to hold the enemy."

Yang Yi thought for a while, nodded slightly, and said: "You are so confident, I have confidence in you, act according to the plan."

Otis said nothing, turned and walked away.

"Wait, you go to meet the two legion commanders. Presumably, they all know you."

"They do know me, but..."

"You just need to hold them back and buy us some time. When the battle starts, I will come to find you personally, so I don't have to worry about them anymore."

Carlson nodded and agreed, but he was still a little worried, after all, he was facing two legion commanders.
