Text Chapter 1637 The Legend of Dabai
In Tang Dingyuan's description, an incredible picture of war slowly unfolded in front of Li Yao.
Bai Xingjian's "garbage fleet" entered the battlefield in the middle of the "Sky Ring War". Of course, it was not the main force in the frontal battle, but the escort fleet responsible for protecting the supply line.
The first six months of guard missions were carried out sloppily and without merit, and it was impossible to see how much commanding ability Bai Xingjian had left after he went mad and his cultivation level plummeted.
However, during a super-large-scale strategic material transportation mission jointly carried out by four escort fleets, they were attacked by the main force of the Sky Ring Fleet.
This was a surprise attack carefully planned by the Tianhuan people for half a year, completely fooling all the eyes and ears of the federal headquarters.
The four improvised and weak escort fleets were not at all the opponents of the main fleet of Tianhuan. They fought fiercely for several days and ended in annihilation. At least, that was what the headquarters of the Federation Expeditionary Force thought at the time!
However, in the next six months, there was a very strange news faintly, coming from the rear of the Tianhuan people.
It is said that a "ghost fleet" composed of the ghosts of the federal army's war dead appeared in the rear of the Tianhuan people. Boat".
The Ghost Fleet is elusive, erratic, harassing, hit and run, and disappear without a trace. Its combat style is not only like a real ghost, but also like a star that once ravaged the Flying Star Realm more than a hundred years ago. Pirates fleet!
The scale of the ghost fleet is not large, and the firepower is not strong. It did not cause a fatal blow to the people of Tianhuan, but it flew around the head of the people of Tianhuan like a buzzing mosquito, flying to the sky. People are dizzy and distracted.
The Tianhuan people intend to eliminate this "mosquito", but no matter how many troops they mobilize, they can't catch it; ignore it, it will take a cold bite at the weakest part of the Tianhuan world, and suck a tube beautifully Blood.
It wasn't until the Ghost Fleet had been active in the depths of the Sky Ring Realm for half a year that the headquarters of the Federation Expeditionary Force finally figured out that it turned out to be the garbage fleet of the White Star Sword!
In the raid half a year ago, the four escort fleets of the Federation Army were almost defeated, especially the six flagships of the other three fleets were blown up, and they fell into a chaotic situation without a leader.
At the critical moment, it was Bai Xingjian who came out to turn the tide and lead the remaining defeated soldiers to retreat. Before retreating, they also detonated a large amount of ammunition and crystals that were going to be sent to the front line, forming an extremely gorgeous interception line.
Afterwards, he did not retreat in the direction of the base camp of the expeditionary army. Instead, he led the group of remnants and defeated generals, and unexpectedly went straight into the hinterland of the Tianhuan people!
Regardless of the Tianhuan Army or the Federation Army, no one thought that he would lead a group of mobs who had just been defeated and their morale was extremely low, and went deep into the hinterland of the Tianhuan people alone.
In fact, after the end of the "Sky Ring War", many officers who belonged to several other escort fleets at that time found that even they didn't know about Bai Xingjian's crazy plan.
They were all deceived by Bai Xingjian.
"Information shows that our retreat has been completely blocked by the Sky Ring people, and another Sky Ring fleet is waiting to make dumplings on our retreat route. We have no choice but to advance temporarily until we get rid of the Sky Ring fleet. Then find a way to detour and go home!"
That's what Bai Xingjian told these officers when the battle was at its most intense.
At that time, the commanders and chiefs of staff of the other three escort fleets were all killed in battle, and the officers who could take over their positions were also stunned and frightened by the sudden attack, completely at a loss.
Bai Xingjian was the commander with the highest military rank and position among the survivors, and he took over the supreme command of the four remnants as a matter of course, and issued the order to "detour home"
No one knew that when he uttered these four words, the word "go home" didn't even appear in Bai Xingjian's crazy brain.
The order to "detour home" was actually implemented two years later.
At that time, this ordinary Star Sea Fleet, which never had the ability to independently cruise and operate for more than a year, had already carried out various harassments, sneak attacks, looting, sabotage mission.
According to post-war statistics, in just two years, they sank and plundered a total of 1,925 transport ships and merchant ships in the Sky Ring Realm, with a registered gross tonnage of an astonishing 38.55 million tons. !
Not to mention, their raids on various resource planets, star sea fortresses, floating starry sky docks and astronomical torches controlled by the Celestial Ring people.
Not to mention, when he finally decided to go home, Bai Xingjian accurately grasped the decisive battle between the main force of the Sky Ring Fleet and the main force of the Federation Expeditionary Force, that is, the Liaoyuan Fleet, and successfully implemented the "beheading tactic" in a disguised raid , and captured the flagship of the Fifth Fleet of the Celestial Ring Army, the "Impeccable Radiance" and the fleet chief of staff with the rank of lieutenant general.
Bai Xingjian switched guns and guns, and steered the "Flawless Glory", swaggering and making a gorgeous comeback.
That was the highest-ranked enemy soldier captured alive by the federal army in the entire war, not one of them.
Of course, according to the Liaoyuan Fleet, it was Bai Xingjian who despicably "stolen" their starship and prisoners of war from behind while they were fighting hard in the front.
Bai Xingjian didn't care about the criticism of the Liaoyuan Fleet, and even said boldly at the press conference to warmly welcome them back: "Actually, there was a chance to capture a fleet commander alive, but think about it, it's better to capture a 'chief of staff' and come back for comparison." interesting."
The point of the conversation was directed at Bai Kaixin, who had performed outstandingly in the Sky Ring War and was just promoted to Chief of Staff of the Liaoyuan Fleet.
It seems that between Bai Xingjian and Bai Kaixin, there is really some old grudge that is not humane and can never be resolved.
After this battle, the main force of the Sky Ring Fleet fell into a slump, and the war came to an end, with the Sky Ring Realm merged into the Star Federation. However, not long ago, the war hero Bai Xingjian, who was still famous and glorious, was sent to a military court.
He faces two charges.
First, the military investigation team questioned many other fleet officers who were not originally affiliated with him, and after a detailed study of the previous World War I when the four escort fleets were attacked, they found that there was nothing waiting for an ambush in that battle. Their sky ring fleet!
In other words, they could have withdrawn safely and securely to the base camp of the expeditionary army. They didn't have to take the risk of going deep into the enemy's rear alone, and Bai Xingjian didn't receive any orders. They didn't have the qualifications to command this remnant army and make such a crazy move!
In 99% of the cases, such a move is not only an act of sending death in vain, but even suspected of "leading troops to surrender to the enemy"!
Bai Xingjian's response to this was: "You know what a fart, if someone else, such as Bai Kaixin, is in command, it is naturally an act of death. In the back, there was a huge upheaval! At that time, the main fleet of Tianhuan was fully equipped, and it had just looted a large amount of our supplies, and was cleaning the battlefield happily. The defense line behind was extremely weak! Don’t miss this opportunity, don’t miss it! Get in quietly, when will you wait?"
The second accusation was even more shocking. The military court found that during the two-year-long guerrilla warfare behind the enemy lines, Bai Xingjian, after looting and capturing the enemy's starships, even without notifying the base camp of the expeditionary army, would send the Officer Shaotianhuan was released and added to his team, completely disregarding whether these people had committed any unforgivable crimes, even after the war, he did everything possible to help these people cover up, tamper with their identities, in an attempt to muddle through!
Bai Xingjian confessed to the charge.
"That's what war is."
Bai Xingjian said, "Can you pigs know how to fight?"
Even if he is shrouded in the halo of a "war hero", once these two charges are established, the best outcome for him seems to be forced retirement, and the "garbage fleet" he built will fall apart.
Jin Xinyue stepped in at this moment.
Jin Xinyue is an ambitious woman with an extremely strong desire for power. In recent decades, as her wings have grown, she does not hide her ambition to become the Federal Speaker and lead the entire Star Federation.
To become the Speaker of the Federation, it is not enough to rely on the support of the major sects in the core world. You must also find a strong ally or subordinate in the military.
The military is Jin Xinyue's weak area.
After all, she is from the demon clan. Because of the war between the blood demon world and the Tianyuan world a hundred years ago, the blood demon world "conditionally surrendered" and voluntarily gave up a large part of its armed forces. The influence in the federal army has been very weak for a hundred years .
Jin Xinyue's competitor, Ding Lingdang, is different. Ding Lingdang's birthplace, the Great Wilderness War Academy, was inextricably linked to the "Old Federal Army". Ding Lingdang's "Patriot Front" also has a large number of members who are federal soldiers or As a member of the military, the Federal Army is almost Ding Lingdang's home field.
As for the Liaoyuan Fleet, the most elite ace army in the Federation, it only had one purpose to attack the Empire when it was established!
In the vicissitudes of the century, the Liaoyuan Fleet has always stayed out of various factional struggles, strictly adhered to neutrality, and firmly grasped the principle of "military non-interference in politics".
Jin Xinyue could neither infiltrate the ground forces of the New Federal Army based on the "Old Federal Army", nor could she intervene in the affairs of the Liaoyuan Fleet. "Wonderful work", didn't the two sides hit it off?
Jin Xinyue mobilized the power of the Skyfire Organization, the Ministry of Federal Development, and the leaders of various sects in the core world to mediate and help Bai Xingjian keep his "garbage fleet" and the position of fleet commander. Bai Xingjian is an empty frame of "independent deep space fleet", theoretically raised the level of "garbage fleet" to the height of keeping pace with "Liaoyuan Fleet", and gave him almost unlimited autonomy, which is equivalent to what was said in ancient times "Open the government and build teeth, recruit troops and buy horses".
In this way, in the past thirty years, Jin Xinyue invested countless resources on Bai Xingjian, managed to obtain a large number of advanced starships, battle shuttles and crystal armor, and recruited experts from all over the world, step by step. The "Garbage Fleet" has become the "Great White Fleet", which is one of the best "Great White Fleets" in the federal army besides the Liaoyuan Fleet! (To be continued.)
