Although the roaring typhoon and the pouring rain are still continuing, various ground staff and soldiers of the SCV engineering team are still busy in the wind and rain inside and outside the mine base.
Compared with ordinary ground crews who have little protection, those various war machines are much better. At least they don't have to worry about the impact of wind and rain. As long as the engines are still roaring, they can move and fight without any scruples.
They don't even pay attention to the strong winds and heavy rains.
Isn’t this?
In the wind and rain, rows of siege tanks, Hellfire chariots, groups of Widow Mines, Hurricane missile vehicles, huge Thor mechas, etc., which had just left the factory and completed emergency training, were constantly attacking.
Under the maintenance and command of the ground staff, they began to drive out of the base in an orderly manner, and braved the howling wind and rain to carry the Marines wearing CMC armor to the battlefield.
As for the sky, let alone that.
Ever since the typhoon blew, ever since the base planned to take advantage of the typhoon and make the decision to launch a major counterattack against the gathering subspace demons, various types of fighter jets and large groups of transport aircraft in the base have almost never stopped.
They have been taking off forcefully and attacking with high intensity in the wind and rain. Some pilots have even fought continuously for more than 20 hours. Even though there are often times when the typhoon is too strong, those who are just preparing to take off or land are killed several times.
The fighter plane was overturned and a lot of unnecessary losses were caused to the equipment without hesitation!
Because, the typhoon will stop in one day.
Before the typhoon stops, the base must completely defeat the incoming enemies and the gathered subspace demons. This is a strategic purpose and combat mission that must be completed on time and will not be interrupted for any reason.
There is no change at all!
Otherwise, the Gui market market that was finally conquered and the current good situation will face disaster if it goes wrong!
As of today, the battle is already halfway through, and the battle on the front line has reached its most intense stage. Therefore, as the supreme commander of the base, Darius, although he has always pretended to be calm and confident,
He even handed over the specific command and dispatch work to several of his adjutants, to the staff officers and commanders. However, at this critical moment, he couldn't help it.
He took the initiative to summon Alia, a female adjutant in the command center, and then asked her about the specific battle situation.
"Report sir!"
"The current battle situation is going very smoothly!"
"Although typhoons and heavy rains have affected the dispatch of our air force and mechanical troops to a certain extent, in comparison, in a combat environment where the battlefield is completely transparent to us, those subspace demons are affected even more!"
"Although their number is dozens or even hundreds of times greater than ours, they are no match for us in this situation!"
"Even if their individual strength is indeed super strong, when faced with the powerful firepower of our army, the power and shield-like chaotic energy skin they are proud of will not have much effect."
"Just before this morning, after a day and a half of fighting, our early bombings and fusion strikes had wiped out at least half of their main force, and the remaining ones are basically leaderless and scattered at the moment!"
"Just one more day..."
"At most noon tomorrow, even if the typhoon stops by then, and even if the red mist envelopes us again, the battle situation will basically be clear."
"Our army will win this battle!"
With that said, the female adjutant took a step forward, placed the current real-time battlefield map on Darius's desk, and began to take the initiative to explain to Darius in detail the details of his own front in all directions of the market.
The deployment of troops, as well as the approximate losses on each front and the results achieved so far.
Of course, the current offensive routes of both the enemy and ourselves, as well as the next key attacks, key defenses, key bombing areas, etc. are definitely indispensable.
"..."
In this regard, Darius certainly did not rush to interrupt the other party.
He even took the initiative to stand up from his seat, then put his hands on the table and approached the huge holographic tactical map. While listening to the other party's explanation, he stared intently at the various information gathered and transmitted from the front line above.
.
"Sir!"
After a long time, the female adjutant looked at Darius with a tired but still firm expression and saluted:
"Sir, the current situation on the front line is basically like this!"
"Generally speaking, the battle situation on all fronts is very stable. Although there are occasional emergencies and powerful demon individuals and psykers appear, their existence cannot affect the overall situation."
"At most, it only causes some minor troubles occasionally. Our troops are getting better and better at dealing with them, and the experience of the recruits is increasing day by day. Your previous decision to use combat as training is undoubtedly the right one!"
As he said that, the female adjutant calmly patted Darius on the butt.
"..."
Hearing this, Darius stood up slowly and looked at his lieutenant.
"Alia, I remember, you are Kate Rockwell's cousin, right?"
"really!"
"The people in your family are indeed very talented in languages."
Nodding, Darius felt relieved when he thought that the adjutant in front of him was the anchor of UNN News in the Koprulu Sector, that is, Kate Rockwell's cousin.
Kate Rockwell is obviously a well-spoken person, and the other party's husband is Valerian Mengsk, the former crown prince of the Tyranid Empire and now one of the top generals in the sector. Therefore, at a glance, the other party's sister-in-law is indeed
It's okay, he really isn't a vase that the other party has forced into his head of state's guard with care.
Of course, no matter what, the relationship between the other party's family must have played a role. That kind of thing is unavoidable. Otherwise, given the other party's age, he would not be able to become the adjutant of one of the highest-ranking generals in the federation.
Twenty or thirty years of hard work is absolutely impossible!
Even if you work hard all your life, you won't be able to reach this position when you retire?
But fortunately, Darius is also a cheerful person. He has long known the little tricks used by officials to maintain their status and power. As long as it is not too excessive and the people arranged by the other party are not too incompetent, he is too lazy to take care of it.
so many.
"okay!"
"I don't want to hear those compliments, go ahead, I want to hear more details."
Therefore, after just casually talking and sighing with emotion, he quickly calmed down, continued to focus on the map, and signaled the other party to continue.
"OK!"
"Sir, there are still some situations like this..."
Although she was a little dissatisfied with Darius's sudden mention of her cousin and cousin-in-law and the meaningful look in his eyes, Aria did not dare to show it at this time. She just pretended not to hear, and then started
Continue to report the progress and situation of certain details of the battle in detail.
Soon, in her confident, sonorous and clear voice, she began to mention the various difficulties on the front line, but at the same time she also emphasized the strong fighting spirit and tenacity of the soldiers, and listed several
Those individuals and teams that performed particularly well in the battle then also mentioned some of the existing problems and minor difficulties that need to be solved.
"..."
In the process of listening to the other party's report, Darius couldn't help but have more smiles of approval on his face.
"very good!"
"Alia..."
"It seems that your control and grasp of the battle situation are very good. I believe that you will be better qualified for the position of commander in the future. I am looking forward to this."
Although Darius could see that the other party still had many shortcomings and immature aspects, at least he was satisfied with the other party's report and summary, and the other party's decent answers and explanations also proved that the other party was more than just a vase.
"Thank you sir!"
"But this is the credit of all staff officers and commanders. I am just doing the work of summarizing and executing the dispatch!"
"I will continue to work hard to ensure that our fighters can achieve the final victory."
"I promise!"
After hearing Darius's praise again, although the female adjutant's face showed more subtle expressions of gratitude and pride, she remained humble again and did not dare to be too complacent.
"..."
Darius nodded, and then didn't say anything more. He just turned around and continued to look up at the battle situation on the holographic map.
In fact, he has had absolute confidence in the victory of this battle for a long time. No matter who takes command, it will be the same. After all, the sector has evolved a complete command system over the years. Even if he puts a dog on it, the result will be the same.
There won't be much change.
Of course, he didn't mean to scold anyone, including himself, it was just a metaphor.
However, he also knows that he must not be careless!
After all, every small mistake may lead to the overall failure, which is too careless, especially now that the sector cannot give them more support, everything can only rely on the small basics they currently have.
In the case of disk?
"alright!"
"Now that the good news is over, let's talk about it. What are the difficulties?"
Then, without waiting for the other party to say anything else, Darius raised his hand to signal that the other party did not need to continue to report good news or bad news. He knew that although the situation was generally improving, there must be difficulties, and it was definitely not just the small things the other party just mentioned.
question, so he wanted to hear about it.
"Report sir!"
"The current battle situation is generally stable and there are no difficulties!"
Aaliya's expression condensed, then she stood at attention and reported loudly.
"but……"
"Although our warriors have performed well on the front lines and have successfully blocked the main attack and advance of the subspace demons on most fronts, we have also suffered serious losses in some places and need reinforcements and replenishments as soon as possible.
"
"After all, most of them are new recruits. When facing those subspace demons, although they have courage and belief in revenge, some of their reactions and cooperation are still too poor. In addition, they do not have basic combat literacy.
So naturally there were many unnecessary casualties."
But after seeing that Darius was unmoved, and even glanced at her with a half-smile, she was inspired, then honestly changed the subject, and then added like this.
"And the support from the air force is lagging behind?"
"Although we all know that it is due to the impact of typhoons and heavy rains, you also know that if there were no typhoons and heavy rains, the red mist would have made us blind and deaf, so we have no choice but to grit our teeth and go
Continue, there is no other choice."
"The main problem is the air force!"
"Sir, we are so short of pilots..."
"A pilot is an indispensable combination of professionalism, technology, and talent. If you can barely handle it now, are you afraid that problems will arise in the future?"
After all, pilots can't be like Marines, who only need to simulate a few times to know the general operations, then equip them with CMC armor, and then plug in a spike rifle and rush to the battlefield. If there is anything they don't know how to do, they can use it
Personal intelligence assistant to learn or ask, or simply learn slowly on the battlefield?
But not pilots!
If he could just simulate it a few times and let him fly the fighter plane like the Marines, God knows what terrible things would happen, and Alia wouldn't dare to imagine it anyway.
"really!"
Hearing this, Darius nodded, saying that he also understood the situation, but he didn't have any good solutions.
"I know……"
"Not just now, but even in the future, driving the devil out of this planet will be an uphill battle, but we must persevere."
"The subspace demon is not an enemy that can be easily eliminated. It is not even a normal creature. We need to continue to strengthen the control and dispatch of the battlefield."
"Anyway!"
"Get over it slowly!"
With that said, Darius, who had no other solution, could only signal the other party to continue.
"..."
Nodding, Aaliya said she understood, so she didn't complain too much. She just continued to report and explain in detail the various difficulties currently encountered and the various solutions she and the staff and commanders had thought of.
.
In this way, one of them listened carefully and the other reported seriously, and nearly half an hour passed without even realizing it.
"Very good, Alia."
Finally, when the other party basically explained the situation, and when Darius had a rough understanding of the current situation, he finally spoke with satisfaction:
"For what you just said, I will ask the logistics department to make adjustments and reinforcements as soon as possible."
"But as much as possible, you should overcome it yourself. You also know that our base does not have much spare capacity at present."
"never mind!"
"Go ahead!"
After a pause, Darius realized that he had said nothing, so he waved his hand, indicating that the other party could go out and get busy first.
"etc!"
"Has Head of State Anne taken any action recently?"
Suddenly, he seemed to remember something, and then Darius quickly called out to the other party and asked again before the other party could go out.
After all, although he did not have to be responsible for specific command work in the past two days, he was basically too busy and did not have the time or energy to pay attention to the current situation of their little ancestor.
"The Führer?"
"That's nothing!"
"However, she went out yesterday and rescued an elite team and the gunship pilot who crashed. Then, this afternoon she called in a Viking fighter and went out again."
"You haven't come back yet. You seem to have flown to the red mist area?"
Aria was startled at first. She didn't expect Commander Darius to ask this question. After thinking for a moment, Aria quickly told the situation.
"??"
"Call the Vikings?"
Darius knew that Viking fighter pilots were hard to find, and a lot of them had been produced recently and were idle. However, given the powerful combat capabilities and high attrition of Viking fighter planes, they had to produce more.
The Viking fighter, which is based on the technology used by siege tanks, was developed as the ultimate air and ground support combat weapon when it was designed. It can not only serve as an offensive infantry combat robot with powerful firepower, but also
It can transform into a heavy fighter with great air combat advantages, which can meet the strategic needs of different combat stages. It is one of the very important air units for humans in the star area.
However, it is an arduous task to find pilots who can adapt to both combat modes at the same time. Those pilots who finally pass the test are still very rare in the aviation schools in the sector, let alone this new arrival.
Star, anyway, he had never heard of any local pilot passing the Viking fighter test.
However, the above things are not important, he is more concerned about other things now.
"Isn't this wrong?"
"I remember……"
"Prince Anne owns many specially-built Viking fighter jets, and they are all painted in various colors. Her toys are much better than the standard ones in terms of ammunition and maneuverability, so she won't be interested in those mass-produced ones.
Is it a machine?"
"Did she really call up the base's inventory?"
Yes, in Darius's view, their head of state Anne wanted a Viking fighter, even if she did not use her 'magic' or other abilities to reproduce and create it, just from her own space pocket
Taking out those toys is enough for her, so where does she need to use the resources of the base?
You know, a while ago, even for fusion strikes, she dug into her own pocket. God knows how many good things were in it. Darius himself almost couldn't hold it back and shamelessly begged the other party to reward him.
Hundreds of fusion bombs are here to respond to the emergency.
"It is indeed a call!"
"But instead of piloting it herself, she took the pilot she rescued yesterday into a two-plane mission."
That kind of thing was not difficult for Adjutant Aaliya to investigate. She just casually checked the records and answered in the affirmative.
"oh?"
"This is quite rare!"
As he spoke, Darius frowned, then opened and read a certain pilot's information, and began to examine it carefully.
"Well……"
"In that case, let them do it. Maybe the head of state can train us a new ace pilot?"
"Fine!"
"Transfer that Gao Lanlan to the Viking Fighter Group, and find someone to fill the vacancies in her staff."
Anyway, it was not a big deal, and the decision was made by Head of State Anne, so Darius made the favor without much thought.
"yes!"
"but……"
"Sir, it's hard to find a Viking fighter pilot. Since the head of state is willing to train new people, shall we..."
Why did the female adjutant Alia not say anything further, but her meaning was obvious. She was obviously planning to increase the workload of her head of state?
"Don't even think about it!"
"Don't even mention it!"
"It's not like you don't know the temperament of our head of state. If you force her way through, it will only be self-defeating. She won't listen to your mercy."
"okay!"
"Just do what you have to do, don't think too much, it's useless!"
Although Darius also wanted his helper to do more serious work during his free time, knowing that this was unrealistic, he still waved his hand and signaled the other person to step back.
"yes!"
"It's my subordinate who is being abrupt!"
Nodding, seeing Chief Darius's refusal, the female adjutant first glanced at the round-faced female second lieutenant in the information that Darius had just retrieved with some jealousy and emotion, and then had to
He stepped back angrily and turned around to leave.
"..."
Darius didn't think much about it. He just continued to stare at the driver's information and couldn't figure out why there was such a female officer who had no characteristics in terms of birth or other places.
Why can it attract special attention from one's own head of state?
However, after he really couldn't figure it out, he didn't think much about it. He just packaged the information and made notes, put it in his memo, and then went about other things.
Chapter completed!
