"Major General Morris, sound the alarm and send a battle signal to the Nineteenth Fleet!" David turned his head and ordered Major General Morris.
"Yes, Admiral David!" Major General Morris replied loudly without any hesitation.
Rear Admiral Morris is David's direct escort fleet, and in a sense belongs to David's personal guard force.
As long as David has an order, this escort fleet can launch an attack on any target, especially when David has a huge influence on all soldiers in this escort fleet.
The ear-piercing battle alarm sounded, and it took only 20 seconds for the 120 battleships to complete the battle preparations of turning their hulls sideways and charging and locking all 50 energy cannons at the same time.
And in the bar box at the AL001 airport, Lieutenant General Hitchcock was drinking with four of his subordinates, accompanied by many beautiful women.
Lieutenant Admiral Hitchcock can be said to be proud of his spring breeze. The Nineteenth Fleet received great credit without any damage in the battle to guard the star in the Great World of God.
Then the Nineteenth Fleet will receive the order and will be received by Admiral David, and Lieutenant General Hitchcock will return to the Federal Command to stand by.
Lieutenant General Hitchcock did not suffer from losing the command of the Nineteenth Fleet, but because he returned to the Federal Command with great merit this time. As long as he moves properly, he is likely to be promoted.
If he is successfully promoted to admiral and he is dispatched again, the army under his command will be stronger than the Nineteenth Fleet.
After the Nineteenth Fleet retreated all the way to the war zone, it came to the Alidia star field to take over the line of defense here.
But before Admiral David came, the Nineteenth Fleet had no specific missions. In addition, the Alidia star field was a peaceful area, and Vice Admiral Hitchcock would also leave the Nineteenth Fleet. He ordered the entire fleet to rest.
This order was naturally welcomed by all the soldiers. After returning from the tense battlefield, the soldiers urgently needed a rest.
Although the Nineteenth Fleet suffered no losses in the war in the Great World of Gods, the toughness of the enemies they faced, and even the emergence of god-level ones, made the soldiers extremely exhausted.
Following Lieutenant General Hitchcock's order, all 10,000 warships entered the airport AL001 for rest.
Even the flagship aircraft carrier of the Nineteenth Fleet, because of the departure of Lieutenant General Hitchcock and the officer in charge, most of the soldiers also left their posts, and only a small number of soldiers maintained the operation of the aircraft carrier.
Lieutenant General Hitchcock felt the vibration from the identity bracelet, and he couldn't help frowning. Who was looking for him at this time, but soon he found that the identity bracelet was flashing red.
He pushed away the woman who was snuggling beside him, and checked his identity bracelet.
Flashing red at this frequency is an emergency battle warning signal.
Since he was not on the flagship and had no command system, Lieutenant General Hitchcock opened the light curtain of his identity bracelet and wanted to connect to the command system.
Lieutenant General Hitchcock was a little strange. This is the Alidia star field, but not a war zone. How could his fleet be attacked.
The most important thing is, which force dares to attack the Nineteenth Fleet, not to mention that the Nineteenth Fleet itself has 10,000 warships, and even has the strongest warships like aircraft carriers, but the future owner of the Nineteenth Fleet is General David, who would dare to offend General David.
One of the reasons why Lieutenant General Hitchcock let the Nineteenth Fleet rest is that because of Admiral David's strength, no one would trouble the Nineteenth Fleet.
Of course, another point is that Lieutenant General Hitchcock underestimated Admiral David's ability to command large fleets. This kind of rest seems normal to laymen. meritorious service.
Lieutenant General Hitchcock's superior is the deputy commander, Admiral Lawrence. He has received news that the relationship between Admiral Lawrence and Admiral David is not good. He wants to let Admiral Lawrence see his ability in this way.
It is estimated that Lieutenant General Hitchcock did not know that his information was outdated long ago. Now General David is very active in the Federal Command. Not only General Lawrence, but the rest of the deputy commanders are all related to General David. Relationships are good.
On the light curtain, strips of data are being refreshed.
"
The warship with the hull number ********* is destroyed in simulated battle!
The warship with the hull number ********* is destroyed in simulated battle!
…
The warship with the hull number ********* is destroyed in simulated battle!
"
The line after line of reminders made Lieutenant General Hitchcock feel relieved and at the same time feel dizzy in the brain.
The reason for the peace of mind, this is not a real enemy attack.
In the Interstellar Federation military, officers directly subordinate to them have the right to conduct mock raids. For all battleships that are judged to be attacked and destroyed, the intelligent system will automatically lock the combat and navigation systems of the battleship.
David is the immediate superior of the Nineteenth Fleet. His authority is extremely high, and he has the authority to order any warship of the Nineteenth Fleet to automatically lock.
After he authorized Rear Admiral Morris, his escort fleet also had such powers.
As long as the battleship locked by the energy cannon is damaged, it will be judged according to the situation of the battleship at that time.
And the battleships of the Nineteenth Fleet were too few to activate the energy shields, let alone counterattack. As long as they were locked by the battleships of the escort fleet, they would be almost 100% destroyed.
Lieutenant General Hitchcock felt dizzy because he knew he was doomed, let alone promotion after such a major dereliction of duty, even the current rank of lieutenant general would be difficult to keep.
At this time, Lieutenant General Hitchcock felt that his small thoughts were really ridiculous, and he did not expect that General David would be so decisive that he would directly carry out a simulated raid without giving any face.
"The flagship aircraft carrier of the Nineteenth Fleet was destroyed!" Lieutenant General Hitchcock, who was dizzy, saw this prompt, and fell to the ground with a loud cry.
Next to Lieutenant General Hitchcock was his adjutant, who had been unconscious for a long time, and the smile on his face seemed to be dreaming of going back to follow the chief officer for promotion this time.
All the soldiers of the Nineteenth Fleet received the battle alert, and the soldiers quickly woke up from their resting state and returned to their warships one after another.
The captains of the battleships also continued to issue orders to the remaining officers, but the enemy's firepower was too fierce. Although it was a simulated attack without the influence of fire and explosions, soldiers continued to receive news of the destruction of the battleship.
The vast majority of soldiers understood that this was a simulated attack, and no soldier took it easy. They understood that this would be a major stain in the history of the Nineteenth Fleet.
The soldiers belonging to the destroyed warships can only hope that the rest of the warships can fight back, at least not to lose too uglyly.
Obviously, what the Nineteenth Fleet encountered was not an ordinary enemy. Although there were only 120 battleships here, they were all battleships with powerful firepower.
When a few warships raised their energy shields, the damage rate of the entire Nineteenth Fleet exceeded 50%, and the flagship aircraft carrier was also destroyed.
Moreover, the massacre is still going on, and the battleships with energy shields are also unable to withstand the attacks from the battleships. The intelligent systems in the two battleships are connected to each other, accurately calculating the attack power and defense, judging the status of the two battleships and then closing the damage. part.
After half an hour, the combat alarm disappeared and the simulated raid ended.
At this time, all the soldiers returned to their warships, and the soldiers were very silent, because according to the analysis of the intelligent system, the damage of the Nineteenth Fleet after this simulated raid finally reached 70%.
What is the concept of 70% battle loss? If more than 60% battle loss, the number can be cancelled.
Almost at the same time, the figure of Admiral David appeared on all the light curtains of the Nineteenth Fleet.
At this time, Lieutenant General Hitchcock also returned to the aircraft carrier. Standing in the cockpit and looking at the young figure on the light curtain, his eyes were full of numbness. He was carried back to the aircraft carrier by his personal guards. wake up.
The Nineteenth Fleet suffered a 70% battle loss in his hands. This record made him understand that his career as an officer was completely over.
Lieutenant General Hitchcock no longer wanted to be promoted or to retain his original position. He was now thinking about whether he could not enter the military court.
"I am Admiral David, the deputy commander of the Federal Command. I have seen the records of the Nineteenth Fleet of the Federation. Those records are very impressive, but today I am very disappointed!" Admiral David's voice spread throughout the Nineteenth Fleet. Every corner of the fleet.
The soldiers of the Nineteenth Fleet were in extremely complicated moods. Admiral David was the military god they crazily worshiped, and they lost face in front of the military god, which made them extremely ashamed.
"This should not be the Nineteenth Fleet I know. This should be a fleet of heroes. You have received incorrect orders, and the person who issued the order was still having a good time while simulating the raid. This is Disgrace to the federal soldiers!" David said with a louder voice.
While the simulated raid was in progress, David's intelligence officer, Colonel Eugene, sent information about Lieutenant General Hitchcock, including where and what Lieutenant General Hitchcock was doing at this moment, with detailed records.
David couldn't understand how a lieutenant general with rich command experience would make such a low-level mistake. You must know that just one such mistake can destroy the entire fleet.
This simulated raid is not the same as a real attack. If it is a real attack, the explosion of the battleship and the terrifying attack scene will make the soldiers who have not boarded the battleship afraid to approach the battleship.
Waiting for the Nineteenth Fleet will be more tragic than the simulated raid, and the price paid will be greater.
"As the deputy commander-in-chief of the Federation, I revoke Hitchcock's rank of lieutenant general and order the court-martial to try him for his crimes of malfeasance! The rest of the relevant officers will be investigated accordingly. In my fleet, there will be no dead bodies in my fleet." People!" David announced in a deep voice.
The soldiers of the Nineteenth Fleet were all shocked. A federal lieutenant general was dismissed. This is extremely rare in the federal military, at least it has not happened in recent decades.
But Admiral David has the power to remove the general's rank and position on the spot on the premise of having evidence. Not to mention that Hitchcock is a lieutenant general, he is an admiral. As long as there is evidence, the deputy commander-in-chief David also has Power removes its rank and office.
"Commander Radner becomes Commander of the Nineteenth Fleet effective today!" David recently announced.
David's figure disappeared in the light curtain. Lieutenant Admiral Lardner had already arrived on the flagship aircraft carrier of the Nineteenth Fleet at this time. Because he had the corresponding authority, he walked into the cockpit unimpeded all the way.
Before commanding the light curtain, Lieutenant General Hitchcock slumped on the chair with a pale complexion.
Lieutenant General Radner was too fast, and the law enforcement officers had just arrived, and Lieutenant General Hitchcock had not arrived in time to arrest Lieutenant General Hitchcock.
"Remove Hitchcock's rank, he is not qualified to wear the rank of lieutenant general!" Lieutenant General Ladner ordered to the law enforcement officers in a deep voice.
The simulated raid just now was seen by Lieutenant General Ladner. He couldn't imagine such a thing happening to a large federal fleet, and he couldn't tolerate such an existence among the commanders.
The general of the law enforcement soldiers removed Hitchcock's rank of lieutenant general, then put handcuffs on Lieutenant General Hitchcock and took him down.
"I ordered all the warships to set sail in batches, and form a wartime formation with the aircraft carrier as the center, ready to accept the inspection of Admiral David!" Lieutenant General Radner ordered loudly.
Following Vice Admiral Ladner's orders, the warships of the Nineteenth Fleet left the AL001 airport in an orderly manner.
The aircraft carrier was the first to start and stopped 100 kilometers away from the AL001 airport. Ten thousand warships quickly arrived and stopped at the designated location.
There were no mistakes in the whole process, which reflected that the Nineteenth Fleet was not in vain, and it also made David, who was watching the Nineteenth Fleet, feel relieved.
"Report to Admiral David, the 19th Fleet has been ordered to assemble, please review!" Lieutenant General Radner also held his breath, this is the fleet he will lead in the future, and he will always show it in front of Admiral David real strength.
The escort fleet was arranged in a close manner, approaching the Nineteenth Fleet in space.
Until this time, most of the soldiers saw their simulated enemies before, and the 120 battleships made them feel great pressure.
You must know that all the battleships of the entire Nineteenth Fleet add up to only ten ships. It is extremely rare for a hundred and twenty battleships to gather together, and many veterans have never seen it.
The warships passing by the escort fleet will flash signal lights, and the signal lights are a tribute to Admiral David.
The review was carried out in a solemn atmosphere, and the soldiers of the Nineteenth Fleet also regained their dignity at this time.
David's escort fleet came to the aircraft carrier, and he boarded the aircraft carrier, which really belonged to him.
What he saw were soldiers with fanatical admiration in their eyes. Outsiders could not imagine his position in the hearts of the soldiers who had participated in the war of defense of the star guarding the great world of the gods.
Wherever David passed, the fanatical emotions of the soldiers were infected with each other, and they could sacrifice for David at any time without any encouragement.
"Vice Admiral Radner, I'll give you a week to manage the Nineteenth Fleet. After a week, I want to see this fleet take over the line of defense!" David came to Lieutenant General Radner and ordered in a deep voice. .
According to the original plan, the Nineteenth Fleet would go to receive the line of defense immediately after he took over.
However, David is a little worried about the Nineteenth Fleet. Although there is no war here, who can tell clearly that this is the Alidia star field and the first line of defense of the Interstellar Federation outside the theater. He needs the tenth fleet. The Nine Fleets took over the defense line in the best condition.
