Chapter 578: The End of Pompeii
Until the battleship sensor system captured 3 huge energy responses from the void outside the fleet, until the 3 Longsword-class frigates disappeared on the radar indicator.
People like the fighter pilot didn't figure out what exactly happened. How could Mie Nakamura know, so she chose to ask about the situation on the battlefield as the supreme commander of the fleet. It's a pity that those people left with the will to die, and no one responded. .
Thirty seconds later, a ray of silver light broke the dull atmosphere shrouded in the 44th fleet. Like a silver dragon, it shot out from nothingness, passed through the gap between a King Kong-class battleship and a Tomahawk-class cruiser, and hit the "Warrior" "Xian" ship belly.
Under the impact of high-energy neutron beams, this storm hammer-class flagship that focuses on attack capabilities is like a pig whose belly has been pierced by a long sword. The silver light engulfs the flames and penetrates the hull, piercing into the distant void and disappearing.
In the blink of an eye, the silver light thinned and faded, and finally flickered a few times before disappearing into the cosmic sea, leaving only the "Wuxian" spewing out various lights and ship parts, struggling in the center of the 44th Fleet fleet walking towards death.
Everyone looked at everything in disbelief, and the staff subconsciously output the images captured by the optical camera along the path of the neutron beam to the large central screen.
However, there was nothing there, and there was nothing at the end of the line of sight, as if the light was generated from nothingness and emitted from nothingness, punishing the "Martial Immortal" like a sword of divine punishment.
Whether it is the ancient multi-frequency radar, magnetometer radar, or quantum radar, the scan results show that there is nothing there, nothing.
Some crew members subconsciously aimed the weapon system at the neutron beam excitation source, firmly stabilized their trembling hands, and waited for an attack command from above.
Commanders at all levels are on the verge of an enemy. Everyone is in danger, the originally calm fleet has become restless and chaotic, and the communication frequency band is like a pot of boiling oil.
No one expected that such a thing would happen. The "Wuxian" was located in the center of the 44th Fleet, surrounded by many warships. However, in such an environment, it was hit by a neutron beam from nowhere, turned into a huge fireball, and slowly flew into the distance.
That was the "Wuxian", on which sat Pompeii Clark, the deputy commander of the 44th Fleet.
That's how he died? A major general just died so silently? Simple as killing a pig.
Someone remembered a saying, "Among all armies, take the head of the enemy general". This kind of thing, which is a joke no matter how you look at it, happened in reality, which made them unacceptable and shocked at the same time. Some people chanted the name of God, and some people pinched their thighs hard, trying to make the pain wake up the illusory dream in front of them.
Unfortunately, without exception, all ended in failure.
Nakamura Mie was not much better than the crew members below, and she also froze in place, not knowing how to deal with it. The two sister ships "Wuxian" and "Persian" now have only one left. Will it be the turn of "Persian" next?
The only thing she can do now is to order the ships to disperse and prepare for the upcoming battle, because no one knows where the neutron beam will be shot next time, and whether the battleship will be turned into candied haws.
She had no time to lament for Pompey Clark. A moment of silence for the "Wuxian".
But at this moment, the correspondent got up to report a situation, and there was a connection request from an unknown source.
Nakamura Mie was taken aback for a moment. With a cold face, he ordered the correspondent to transfer to the central screen of the bridge.
During this process, she had countless thoughts in her mind, until she saw the calm face on the monitor, she sighed, and said helplessly: "I should have thought of it a long time ago, since a smart person like you dares to go to the meeting alone, it will be inevitable." I have made all the preparations, and Pompeii Clark really shouldn't provoke you."
The person who appeared on the big screen was Tang Fang. As Nakamura Mie said, he was indeed prepared.
No matter when it comes. Still leaving, the "Seraph" has been closely following the migratory bird-class shuttle. The combat assistant will closely monitor the warships belonging to the 44th Fleet, and will destroy them without mercy if there is any trouble.
Even if this incident has nothing to do with Pompeii Clark, but Bailey's own initiative, he still wants to kill the "Martial Immortal" because he doesn't like that major general.
His actions in "Mubarak" will only deter the upper echelons of the Star Alliance, and have little effect on the grassroots soldiers. Covenant naval units, including Soldiers and mid-level commanders, know they are not made of mud.
Of course, this needs an excuse, because he doesn't want to be the villain accused by the public, so self-defense is a good excuse, and Bailey's appearance ensures that things can develop according to his plan. "Being eliminated can only be characterized as self-inflicted blame, not that he, Captain Tang, provoked the Covenant Navy.
Undoubtedly, this is a disgrace to the 44th Fleet, and it is even more a scandal. Mie Nakamura and David Conan will try their best to cover up this matter. The sinking of the "Wuxian" may be characterized as an accident. ? Clark can only die in vain.
After Mie Nakamura finished speaking, she suddenly thought of a question, why didn't he bring Tang Lin with him when he came to the "Persian", but a simple but powerful girl like Freya.
She will not care about Pompeii Clark's identity, nor will she restrain herself because of the constraints of morality and etiquette. She just acts according to her inner thoughts. If Tang Fang says she doesn't like it, she will never like it. For those who don't like it Things will be an eyesore. Since they are an eyesore, they should be thrown out of sight, just like disposing of garbage.
But Pompeii Clark couldn't care about a little girl like her who didn't understand the world, but he was humiliated by such a little girl in front of many people, including his own confidantes, so he could only vent his anger to On Tang Fang, even if he didn't do anything, he just said "I don't like you".
Then lead to the next volley and counterattack.
From a macro point of view, he did nothing wrong, it was Freya who was wrong, but... no one would sincerely blame an immature little girl, but would think that Pompeii Clark didn't have any guts or masculinity. A little girl with ordinary knowledge is really in vain as a rear admiral.
The next halfway interception triggered the opponent's counterattack. Nature is also a reasonable thing.
Others going to the meeting alone is enough to show that Captain Tang is a brave, trustworthy, and courteous person. At most, he has a fault of lax control. Just ask any man, who can be ruthless to control a fairy like Freya? Same girl. Her face and smile alone melted my heart.
And how did the 44th Fleet do it? A little girl peeled off her face, and she actually wanted to kill her to vent her anger. Is this what a normal person should do? Only those vicious and perverted madmen would do it. The sinking of the "Wuxian" can only be said to be what they deserved!
Pompeii Clark not only won't get the sympathy of the public opinion, but will also become the target of public criticism. Shame on the Covenant Navy, shame on the 44th Fleet.
Freya is a simple girl who "Tang Fang is supreme", Punk Clark is a fanatic who is "clean and clean" to distorted personality, and a group of like-minded subordinates who are not afraid of death.
If such a collision is not accidental. Such a conflict is not a coincidence, but a well-planned conspiracy...
Nakamura Mie shivered, looking at the young man with the same skin color and pupils as her on the big screen, a chill came from the bottom of her heart, how much do you need to grasp people's hearts to make such a plan !
She suddenly remembered a saying from the Three Kingdoms period in China, "Using soldiers to attack the heart is the top, attacking the city is the bottom; fighting the heart is the top, and fighting with soldiers is the bottom."
Punk? Clark is a real idiot.
If he had been more low-key and humble when facing Captain Tang during the first call with the "Morning Star", he might not have ended up in the scene before him. Even the road to death was chosen for him by others. From a self-proclaimed patriot to a disgrace to the Star Alliance Navy, it will become a negative teaching material for all Star Alliance executives who deal with Captain Tang in the future, and will be talked about time and time again. It's really sad to whip the corpse again and again...
Pompeii Clark paid a heavy price for his original arrogance. She was very fortunate that the deputy commander was in the lead, and she was in the rear. That's why he didn't become the target of Captain Tang's calculations.
Tang Fang said: "It's not good for anyone to work with such a person. He should be your partner. He shouldn't be a hindrance."
Mie Nakamura said: "He and I just have different ideas of how to deal with things, maybe there is a big difference in outlook on life, but the love for the Star Alliance is the same, regardless of thickness."
"Oh?" Tang Fang looked into her somewhat charming and enchanting eyes, and said, "Patriotism cannot be an excuse for you to infringe on other people's interests, or even their lives."
She also looked into his eyes and said: "You are more like a Covenant than Pompeii. Only under the autocratic and high-handed rule of the Mongya Empire and the Sulu Empire, the people believe in power, like 'King and defeating' ’, ‘History is written by the winners’ is the main theme.”
Tang Fang was silent for a while, then said: "This matter ends here, take your fleet away from 'Lachesis', otherwise, if there is any accident, don't blame me for not warning you."
It is naturally very simple to create an accident for an invisible battleship that cannot be detected by the entire fleet, and there is no danger of being caught.
Like him, Mie Nakamura was silent for a long time, and said: "I hope that one day you will not go to the opposite side of the Star Alliance, otherwise, even if I risk my life, I will fight with you to the end."
Tang Fang didn't say anything, and ordered the "Seraphim" to cut off the connection with the "Persian", and then left the 44th Fleet's fleet station to fly to "Christian".
There are many people like Mie Nakamura in the Star Alliance, and there are also some people like Pompeii Clark, whether it is a proud person, a person with a messy private life, or a poor person who lives on government relief funds all day long. The old foxes who are intriguing, these people have all kinds of strange life attitudes and personal personalities. However, most of them love this country very much and don't hesitate to give their lives for it.
In the more than half a year since he came to the Star Alliance, he has never seen any promotional videos with the main theme on the information carriers for the public, and the media will not tell the people to love the country and the army. Family power may not be able to completely eradicate care for vulnerable groups such as patients, children, etc., but the law has made the greatest degree of restrictions. Part of the stock shares are in the hands of the people, rather than the family, chaebols and other forces. To use a term, "wealth is hidden in the people".
in most cases. The local government that is closest to the people's lives tries to maintain a low profile to the people in its jurisdiction, instead of adhering to the lordly style of official standard thinking, and it must do everything it can to eat and get cards.
Also, in terms of the legal system, it is not high-level intervention that determines the direction of a case. It is not about class interests, nor is it up to the judge alone. The opinion of the jury is very important, and there are strict requirements for the selection of jurors. They must have never been in contact with any consultation related to the case. They are not national elites or high-level knowledge. molecular. But the lowest level of civilians.
They represent the universal values of society, without preconceived circumstances, and maintain the principle of fairness and justice to the greatest extent. This is respect for the law and a respect for individuals.
Such a social system originated from the Star Alliance, the predecessor of the Star Alliance. It's just that after the establishment of the Star Alliance, it eliminated the shackles that humans broke through the solar system. When the Star Alliance was formed, the countries and big family forces created similar "autonomous fields", "political/special economic zones", and Unjust bills such as "exclusive claim area" and "differentiated judicial interpretation" have truly established a people-centered national system.
Although human beings are emotional animals, there is no absolute fairness and justice, but relatively speaking, the Star Alliance's respect for the personality of the country's citizens is far higher than any full-time regime in the Hillenbel Region, even better than Charles Federation, Dolan The Republic of Texas is more democratic and ruled by law.
In such a national environment. Propaganda organizations don't need to start from a young age, start from a baby, and warn them to love the country and the army. When they grow up, they should work hard to build the country and be a pillar of talent, but to teach them how to be a "human being", a "human being" different from advanced animals. Therefore, the children of the Star Alliance are never "biased", and the status of science and engineering is similar to that of human and social sciences.
all in all. The core social values of the Star Alliance are to encourage a person to realize the value of life, rather than narrowly create material value. This is why the "Redemptor Humanitarian Foundation" appeared in the Star Alliance, and there are many people like Connor Rafael who sincerely and silently contribute to charity.
When a person receives a good education and grows up slowly. Knowing the truth, knowing right and wrong, you will naturally know what to love, how to love, what to hate, and how to hate.
Centralized countries like the Mongya Empire and the Sulu Empire are compared to the Star Alliance, so naturally they cannot be called civilized. In conscience, even if they have not traveled through the social environment before, there is still a big gap with the Star Alliance.
When he returned to "Crystal", the Apollo Pirates looked as if they were facing a big enemy and who was going to fight desperately. After careful questioning, it turned out that the reconnaissance equipment detected the 44th Fleet assembly area near "Lacusi". There was an exchange of fire, Chen Jian and Yasen Nicholas thought that something happened to him, and they were planning to send troops to rescue him.
Fortunately, he came back in time, dispelling everyone's worries, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhou Ai asked about what happened, so he briefly described what happened on the "Persian".
Chen Jian and Stephen Su were very excited about the fact that he piloted the "Seraphim" to bombard the "Wuxian" and sent Pompeii Clark to the west. They thought about drinking two cups to celebrate during the meal celebrate.
Because of the Evil Night Legion's surprise attack on "Dilal" and the return of the "Morning Star", the 44th Fleet didn't pay attention to the Apollo Pirates led by the two at all. Pompeii Clark didn't even bother to show his face , ignoring their requests for negotiation, it is really annoying.
Now it's good, even his "Wuxian" was sent to hell by the "big scorpion", he deserved it... the old saying is good, don't pretend to be x, pretend to be struck by lightning.
When the few people were talking, it happened that Kylenia went to the ground command center of the industrial park to find Claire and Zhou Ai to discuss how to break the information blockade of the Monya Empire and get in touch with the Garcia Rebels. What happened on the "Persian" couldn't help but say something else.
It’s actually not good for him to do so. It’s the best way to win a faction, fight a faction, and stabilize a faction.
The so-called pulling one faction is to get close to the generals of the frontier army like David Conan, threaten them with video data, and promise that after the war between the Star Alliance and the Sulu Empire, "Morning Star Forge" will assign biological battleships to carry out a certain degree of control over the no man's land navy. The temptation to support this kind of military general who is different from those politicians and is determined to serve the country and the people has a tilted position, and he has high hopes for "Morning Star Casting".
After all, the result of the surprise attack on "Mubarak" by the biological battleship is obvious to all. If it can be used by the Covenant Navy, it will become a magic soldier with short hair and a key link in the Covenant's victory over the Sulu Empire.
I believe that with an identity like David Conan, standing on the standpoint of the country and the people, he knows how to choose.
Since the purpose of the Star Alliance is to overthrow the tyranny of Sulu and Mongolia, it is consistent with his purpose. Anyway, the biological battleship will enter the battlefield sooner or later. Why not use it as a political weight in exchange for some tangible and intangible benefits, such as popular support, Military spirit, such as zero elements, funds and other materials needed for the development of "Dilar".
It is far better to form an alliance with a soldier like David Conan than to cooperate with "Venus Pharmaceutical" based on a technology sharing model. Moreover, with his intelligence and military strength, he is not afraid of being used as cannon fodder by the military. use. (to be continued)
