Greenwich line of defense, "forward" outpost.
Although this is an outpost built by the Human Corps thousands of years ago and is also the central outpost of the Third War Zone in the area, this outpost was originally an asteroid with a diameter of about one thousand kilometers. At that time, in order to assist the human army to defend the vital Greenwich defense line, the Hidden Spirits used the most advanced technology to transport the asteroid from more than ten light-years away, and assisted the human army to transform it into a space fortress. Only in the millennia that followed, this fortress with the largest scale and the most complete facilities on the Greenwich Line never played its due value. After barely maintaining for hundreds of years, it was finally transformed into a frontier post.
It is called transformation, but in fact some defensive facilities are sealed up 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. With the fortress officers and soldiers, the total force was close to 15 million. Only after being converted into a forward post, the number of officers and soldiers stationed here never exceeded one million, and in some cases it was less than half a million. However, before the outbreak of the war, the Human Federation began to mobilize, and the Third Theater Command promptly sent additional troops there. When the Silicon Charm army crossed the Greenwich Line and entered the North Fourth District, the 1.5 million officers and soldiers of the assistant "advanced" the post did not flinch, and activated the sealed defensive facilities as quickly as possible. Although after that, the outpost was attacked by thousands of Simei Legions and even lost part of its surface positions, but the defenders did not give up until the reinforcements from the Star Weavers arrived.
In fact, the "Advance" post is also one of the few posts on the Greenwich line that has not fallen.
When Yang Yi and the others arrived, the post was still being repaired. Although they repelled the powerful enemies surrounding the outpost and helped the defenders eliminate the enemies who invaded the outpost, the reinforcements of the Star Weavers did not help the defenders repair the outpost, mainly because the fortress was built with the technology provided by the Hidden Spirits. , And the Star Weavers are not very familiar with the techniques of the Hidden Spirits. In addition, this post belongs to the third theater.
The reinforcements of the Star Weavers are only temporarily stationed here, and have no permanent plans.
Just like this, the reinforcements of the Star Weavers did not enter the outpost, but stayed near the outpost, waiting for the arrival of the human army commanded by Yang Yi.
Although she knew why the Queen of Star Soul would not help repair the "advance" post in the third theater, Yang Yi was a soldier, or a soldier in the third theater, so naturally he could not stay out of the matter. After arriving, he did not immediately go to see the commander of the Weaver Star Clan reinforcement army, but went to the commander of the post.
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 from a grass-roots officer and gradually being promoted to 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, not only did he not escape, but he 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 carry out the invasion. The formidable enemy fought fiercely for months. Without him, this post would have fallen. It was precisely in the battle to guard the post that he was promoted from colonel to major general and became the post commander.
This position is not big, but not small.
If it's just an ordinary outpost, then the outpost commander is nothing. However, the "Advance" post is the largest in the direction of Greenwich, and it is also one of the few that has not been severely damaged. Therefore, the identity of Yan Yikuan as the commander of this post is not simple. It can be said that in the short term, whether it is the Human Corps or the Star Weavers reinforcements, the military operations launched on the Greenwich Defense Line can be based on this post. The post garrison assistance is needed for the replacement of the corps, logistics support, and treatment of the wounded. And support. The Queen of Star Soul is so high that she naturally wouldn't put a small outpost commander in her eyes, but Yang Yi couldn't do it.
Seeing Yan Yikuan, Yang Yi believed those rumors about him.
Although the Human Federation mobilized for war ahead of time, and the third theater also sent reinforcements in time, the war came too suddenly, and the Silicon Magic army broke through the Greenwich Line of defense without warning and appeared in the human race. Behind the legion. The enemy's back road is cut off, let alone grassroots officers and soldiers, even senior officers may not be able to stabilize it. At that time, at the various outposts on the Greenwich Line, the officers and men were able to stay on their posts, and it would be nice if they didn't escape. The same was true at the "Advance" post. It was rumored that the army commander at the time was scared to death. Not only did he fail to organize the officers and soldiers, he was still spreading remarks that shake the morale of the army. It was at this time that Yan Yikuan stepped forward and first organized his officers and soldiers. Soon after, the legion commander from the Third Theater Command was killed in an accident, and Yan Yikuan became the highest-ranking officer in the post. As for whether the legion commander died in an accident, I am afraid that only Yan Yikuan knows. At least the death of the legion commander is rumored to be directly related to him.
He is a genuine soldier, and you can tell 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 fake, and they are really heroes."
"General Yan praised me. I just went up to the tree and I was lucky enough to get some credit. In front of General Yan, I was just a junior."
Yan Yikuan nodded slightly, and then invited Yang Yi to sit down.
"I heard that General Yan is a refreshing person, I won't be too wordy." After sitting down, Yang Yi said, "Within a few days, the human legion under my command will arrive one after another. As expected, the Star Weaver Clan's reinforcements are already there. A battle plan for marching into the Northern Alpha galaxy has been worked out. According to the order issued by the military headquarters, I will command the army to assist the Weaver Star Clan reinforcements in launching an offensive. In other words, I will not stay here for too long. It is just that they arrive one after another. The corps needs a place to station and the necessary logistical support, and General Yan has to bother."
"It is my job to provide logistical support for combat troops, and General Yang need not worry."
Seeing Yan Yikuan's affirmative answer, Yang Yi also felt relieved.
"It's just that I don't know how many regiments General Yang has under his rule, and how many regiments he intends to bring to the expedition?" Yan Yikuan paused for a while before saying, "General Yang, don't misunderstand, I'm not trying to find out about General Yang, just to make arrangements for acceptance. The barracks needed by the Legion."
"Not many, at most two hundred legions, and only a part of them, perhaps only twenty, will follow me on the expedition."
Yan Yikuan was taken aback for a moment, his expression was very surprised.
"The specific situation is still unclear. After all, the situation is tense. The military has no extra legions to send me. I can only go to various colonial galaxies to recruit officers and soldiers and form legions by myself. Although some of them have followed me and participated in Feng Martian. Defensive war, but the officers and soldiers from the colonized galaxies have almost no actual combat experience. Letting them go to the Northern Alpha galaxy is tantamount to sending them to death. Of course, my mission is only to assist the Star Weaver Clan’s reinforcements, not the main force, so I also use it. Don’t bring too many corps. Most importantly, it depends on whether the logistics support can be better. If the logistics support is unsustainable, it will be useless to bring more corps on the expedition."
"General Yang, do you really think you can invade the Northern Alpha Galaxy?"
When Yan Yikuan said this, Yang Yi looked up at him.
"Yes, the reinforcements of the Star Weavers are indeed very powerful. In only one day, they defeated the Simei army besieging the outpost, and then assisted us in destroying the enemies that landed. As far as I know, there was only one Star Weaver at the time. The Clan Legion’s landing post assists us in the fight." Yan Yikuan exhaled, "The problem is that marching into the Northern Alpha Galaxy is not about regaining lost ground. Even if the Weaver Clan’s reinforcements are very strong, they may not be able to successfully cross the Greenwich meteorite belt. Even if it can, in After entering the Northern Alpha Galaxy, there will be strong 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 the invasion of the Northern Alpha Galaxy, no real victory has been achieved. Now , Can it be possible to defeat the powerful Silicon Charm Alliance only with the support of the Star Weavers and the two hundred legions commanded by General Yang? I’m not suspicious of General Yang’s courage and courage, but General Yang really thinks that he can rely on himself. The strength of the power to win the final victory, then General Yang has only the courage and courage."
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. We have no right to act without authorization, but General Yang is asked to think twice about the issue of sending troops."
"General Yan meant..."
"No matter what, it doesn't hurt to keep an extra hand."
Yang Yi was taken aback for a moment, then nodded again, expressing that he understood what Yan Yikuan meant, but he didn't rush to express his position.
"The Galaxy Alliance Consensus has passed a war resolution. All civilizations, including the Lei Ling clan and other top civilizations, will immediately enter a state of war and conduct war mobilization. As expected, the Lei Ling clan’s reinforcements will soon arrive. Waiting for reinforcements from other civilizations to launch a counterattack will not only have a greater chance of winning, but also reduce combat casualties. In any case, General Yang should not advance at this time."
"The problem is that the military's order is very clear."
"General Yang is the commander of the army and has the right to make decisions based on actual conditions."
Yang Yi pondered for a while, then nodded slightly, and said, "General Yan is right. He really should make long-term plans. It's just that the army under my command has already been deployed, and it is impossible to return it to its original garrison. Let's talk about it. Doing so is tantamount to directly violating the order issued by the military headquarters."
"This is a small matter. There is enough space in the post to accommodate the army commanded by General Yang."
After Yan Yikuan said these words, Yang Yi nodded and agreed. In fact, Yang Yi said so much, what he was waiting for was Yan Yikuan's words.
