Starfighter

Chapter 528: In the clouds and mist

Views:

When the first batch of landing ships landed one after another, and the twenty legions of the vanguard lined up one after another, Figos not only did not relax, he was also a headache. The point is that Figos is just an ordinary warlord, and the twenty legions of the vanguard come from various places. Not to mention making twenty jagged legions ready for battle in time after landing, even organizing these legions would be a hassle.

In fact, Figos has always wondered why the guy who stayed in the flagship made such an arrangement.

Of course, there are too many things that Figos can't understand.

Although it is Kutum’s warlord, it can be said that it is the master of one party. At least for the past hundreds of years, Figos has always been the supreme existence in his rule area, because the top warlords like Kutum have During peacetime, the affairs in the jurisdictions underneath are hardly involved, and all chores are handled by the warlord under him. But in terms of identity, Figos is only the king of war, and even if there are no one million kings like him in the Silicon Magic Alliance, there are hundreds of thousands. Even under Kutum, there are tens of thousands of warlords who are on par with Figos. In other words, to Kutum, Figos is just a warlord, not an irreplaceable existence.

Obviously, Kutum would only order Figos what to do, but would not tell him why he did it.

In this regard, Figos also knows himself, so he never asks more. Like other warlords, Kutum told him to do what he did. As for why he should do this, it is not a question he should consider, and in his capacity, he cannot ask more.

In fact, after the war broke out, Figos has always felt like a cloud.

First of all, this war came too suddenly, without any warning, unlike the past five Greenwich Wars, there were some rumors before it broke out. This time it was completely different, at least Figos did not hear any rumors related to the outbreak of the war. As if overnight, the war had arrived. Figos remembers clearly that when Kutum issued the order to prepare for battle, requiring all warlords to organize and prepare for battle within the specified time, Figos was working on some cumbersome things in the jurisdiction. worry. At that time, his first reaction was that there was an error in the transmission of the order, and he also sent an inquiry about this, trying to figure out whether this was an order from Kutum himself. Of course, Figos was not stupid enough to ask Kutum directly, and he was shocked by the answer.

Secondly, the speed of this war is so fast that Figos feels like he is dreaming.

It can be said that until now, Figos has not recovered.

Although he did not participate in the Fifth Greenwich War, Figos knew that in that war, the Silicon Magic Alliance took the lead, and it still took nearly five years to complete the raid on the North Fourth District. It was in these five years that the Human Federation completed the war mobilization and stationed in the Beacon Star in time. After fifty years of arduous fighting, it finally achieved a major reversal here.

This time, it only took three months, less than three months strictly speaking.

Figos has always been unable to believe that the human federation that made the Silicon Magic Alliance fail a thousand years ago is so fragile that it can even be considered vulnerable. From the Greenwich Line of Defense to the homeland galaxy, the human legion almost retreated all the way, without strong resistance at all. In many places, the human army retreats after being attacked, which is tantamount to giving up these vital star systems to the enemy. The point is that this is not an organized retreat, but a complete retreat. During this period, many human legions were severely damaged or even annihilated, and only a few retreated to the galaxy. If it weren't for the human confederation that has worked hard for thousands of years in the homeland galaxy and built a complete defense system, I am afraid that even the homeland galaxy's defenders will be defeated when the Silicon Charm army arrives.

Is this the human federation that caused the Silicon Magic Alliance to suffer

What makes Figos even more puzzling is that Kutum seems to know that the Human Legion will retreat all the way, so he is also very aggressive in formulating an offensive plan. At that time, let alone Figos, no warlord believed that he could defeat the Human Federation with such aggressive offensive tactics. You know, before reaching the home galaxy, Kutum sent his main force to sweep other star systems. He only arranged a fleet of 1,000 warships and a hundred legions to advance to the home galaxy, and also swept along the way. The star system consumes more than half of the legion. In other words, if the human legion does not retreat, as long as it stops in a certain star system and persists for a period of time, it will be able to defeat the vanguard of the Silicon Charm army. If the human legion has enough morale, it can even seize the opportunity to retake several star systems. It can be said that as long as the human legion persists in a certain star system, the scene a thousand years ago will be staged again.

The problem is that the Human Legion did not do this.

At that time, Figos admired Kutum in a five-body manner. However, what happened next made him feel like an idiot again.

In less than three months, the Silicon Charm army reached the outskirts of the home galaxy and successfully surrounded the home galaxy.

According to Figos' understanding, the next step is to storm the homeland galaxy and achieve a decisive victory before the human confederation completes its war mobilization. Based on the experience and lessons of the previous Greenwich Wars, Figos and other warlords knew that as long as the Human Federation completed the war mobilization, extraordinary combat effectiveness could erupt. If a commander emerges, the human legion is almost a powerful existence that cannot be defeated.

As a result, Kutum ordered the Silicon Charm army that had surrounded the home galaxy to stop.

At first, Figos still felt that there was a reason for the incident. After all, it was the vanguard who arrived at the home galaxy. Not only did they not have enough legions, nor enough warships, they rushed to attack, not only could not take the home galaxy, but also exposed the confidence of the Silicon Charm army. insufficient.

The problem is that after the fleets and legions from other places arrived one after another, Kutum still did not order an attack.

Next, a bad news almost made Figos desperate.

Without his knowledge and the other warlords did not receive any news, Kutum’s Simei fleet encountered the Star Weaver fleet in the central area and suffered a disastrous defeat. Most of the battleships were damaged. More than half of the small warships failed to escape.

Why did Kutum lead the main fleet into the central region? Why did you encounter the Zhixing clan fleet? Why did you suffer a disastrous defeat in the battle of the fleet

Too many reasons make Figos almost desperate.

At this point, not only Figos, but other warlords felt that the best time to capture the homeland galaxy has passed. The only way to avoid greater losses and avoid complete defeat is to shrink the front and abandon the homeland galaxy. Adjust the combat deployment in time, prepare to fight with the reinforcements of the Weaver Star clan. To put it bluntly, the sudden appearance of the Star Weaver Clan fleet is enough to prove that the Star Weaver Clan reinforcements are about to arrive.

However, Kutum's decision once again surprised Figos.

After returning, Kutum's first order was to launch a general attack, so that all the warlords near the homeland galaxy at that time would launch the army under the hands of the warlord.

Although surprised and puzzled, Figos executed the order issued by Kutum.

In fact, based on the situation at the time, Figos took this as his last chance to capture the homeland galaxy before the arrival of the reinforcements from the Star Weavers.

Of course, Figos is not the only one who has this understanding.

Just like this, the Silicon Magic Army launched the largest offensive since the start of the war. Strictly speaking, this is also the first attack of the Silicon Magic Army in this war, because in the previous battles, the Silicon Magic Army almost always The colonial galaxy of the Human Federation was captured without blood.

It can be said that Figos is only one step away from victory.

At that time, the army commanded by Figos was always in the forefront, breaking through the outer line of defense of the home galaxy first, and also the first to advance to the second line of defense.

Unfortunately, it was this last step that Figos did not step over.

When receiving the retreat order from Kutum, Figos was organizing the army, preparing to launch a new round of offensive, intending to break through the second line of defense in one fell swoop. After being shocked, Figos knew that the reinforcements of the Star Weavers had arrived, and Proxima, just a few light years away, had defeated the fleet sent by Kutum in the battle and had taken control of Proxima. In other words, reinforcements from the Star Weavers may appear near the home galaxy at any time. Because it consumed too much force and suffered too much loss in the previous attack, the Silicon Charm army has no reserve force. If it is attacked by the Star Weaver Army at this time, it will definitely be completely defeated.

Obviously, if you don't withdraw now, I'm afraid there will be no chance to withdraw.

However, when Figos was ready to withdraw to the northern Alpha galaxy, Kutum sent a new order to lead him to the Tomb of God galaxy ten light-years away from the Wolfsmoke galaxy, and lay there ambush. , Waiting for the new order, and clearly mentioned that no action can be taken until the new order is received, the only thing to ensure is not to be discovered by the enemy, that is, not to reveal the whereabouts.

In this regard, Figos has no objection.

The Wolfsmoke Galaxy is on the route across the Greenwich Meteorite Belt. If the Silicon Charm army prepares to withdraw to the Northern Alpha Galaxy, it must control this route and therefore the Wolfsmoke Galaxy. Because the human legion has entered the Wolfsmoke galaxy in advance, and the legions of other warlords commanded at that time have not withdrawn, and will not be able to organize enough legions to launch an attack for a while, so it is normal to ambush in the Tomb of Gods galaxy first.

However, this wait is more than a month.

It wasn't until a few days ago that Figos received Kutum's order to rush out of the Tomb of Gods galaxy with the legion and head towards the Wolfsmoke galaxy.

At this time, Figos knew that Kutum was not the only one sent to attack the Wolfsmoke galaxy. There were also eleven warlord commanders and a fleet that was large enough but not many capital ships. Because Figos was the first to reach the Tomb of the Gods galaxy and was the most prepared, according to Kutum's deployment, he would act as a pioneer and be responsible for landing on Mars and seizing the landing field for other legions.

However, Figos is not commanding his own legion, but a mixed unit.

Of the twenty legions, only two belonged to Figos, and the other eighteen legions were from other warlords, but were temporarily commanded by Figos.

Obviously, this is a big problem.
