The second thing that made him feel even more abstract was that the new police officer and Kokolia allowed this batch of star ships to land in Xicheng District and did not let them accompany the prisoner on the spot...
The Star Chariot flew in from outside the protective shield of Bay City. Kokolia and the Wolf Heads had no ability to counter it? What a joke... It couldn't have been able to fight with the Xianzhou people for so many years just because of its extraordinary self-healing ability, right? At least it should have interfered - even if it didn't want to accidentally trigger the "switch" for a full-scale war, it wasn't such a cowardly way.
...There is a possibility of anti-phishing, so they should be preparing for a feint attack. But what are they feinting for? As long as Bu Liren arrives in front of the barbed wire, regardless of whether Bronya has a reason to enter the castle immediately to defend the king, Yuyun and Jeppard will be the first to get bloody.
No matter how I think about it, there's something wrong... They must be planning an attack in other directions.
[…Himeko, are you free? ]
Thinking of this, Sora had already prepared a plan in his mind, intending to obtain more information to re-plan his strategy.
[I've been on standby. Tell me, what do you need me to do? ]
Himeko was amused by Sora's flattering opening line of conversation, "Are you there?"
[Is Esta here too? Please help me confirm the movements of Bu Liren's fleet in the distance - Belfa, how is the situation over there? ]
[Three large beast ships are in the northern orbit, on the dark side of Beloberg.] Befa immediately gave Kong a reassurance.
[I’m not close enough to lock onto the enemy, but I can detect the light spots of about 40 battleships using conventional sighting.] Noshiro continued.
[…The Buli main force at the edge of the galaxy showed no signs of movement, so you can rest assured.] After the ship girl reported the orbital situation, Jizi and Esta also confirmed that the Buli main force did not make any unnecessary movements… It seemed that their flagship, the giant beast, did not intend to bring him to land in person.
Although the opposition did not have enough orbital fleets to provide cover, the firepower of two cruisers and a train alone was enough to give the enemy a hard time. For now, there was no need to worry about being stabbed over the head - Kong also confirmed that those bandits were not willing to work for Cocolia.
"There are 3 beast ships and 40 battleships in low-Earth orbit. Yuyun, is this scale considered powerful in the tribe?" He turned and asked Yuyun, who seemed quite relaxed.
"Three beast ships? That means almost one-third of the army is on the dark side. The police's testimony said that this Buli people is just a small tribe. The information is probably credible."
"One third? That's not a small amount. Weird..."
Kong frowned suddenly:
"…But it does make sense—they didn't dare to provoke us before. Could it be that they didn't know whether we had hidden orbital strike forces?"
"Stupid, if I were the other side's commander, I would also be suspicious. With the star core blockade, there are no transport ships entering or leaving the outer star zone. Normally, there shouldn't be so many star ships arriving on the surface so openly..."
The black tower on standby suddenly appeared, with its nose raised to the sky, as if it could be more thoughtful than Kong, making her feel more comfortable than winning against Luosi and Ruanmei——
Shrouded in snow and fog, the distant fleet could not see the situation of the Company and the Ranger landing forces, and the nearby orbital forces were restricted by the blockade of trains and cruisers and did not dare to get close to observe.
Plus the air ranger pulled out a few warships from his pants...they were stuck like this.
Yuyun looked at Kong with a subtle expression, and echoed Heita, "It is indeed possible. I am afraid they are worried that we have used some means to hide several motherships. Luofu did this in the last Fengraomin War."
"..."
The corner of Sora's mouth twitched.
It turns out that helping everyone move equipment also means the other side is afraid of moving it... Now they have to be prepared to take the initiative to attack instead of defending and counterattacking.
It may not be so "justifiable", but everyone in Buli is in the city participating in the "suppression" work...it's not unacceptable.
Since the enemy does not come to us, we go to the enemy -
It's time to test the results of your careful planning.
"Will it take another 26 hours for all the mechas to arrive? But speed is of the essence... Let the infantry fight the main battle in the city. If they fight on the plains... Clara, temporarily suspend the track laying. Let Swarovski command them to march on foot from the wild, along the arc of the city wall. If there is no obstruction, enter the city through the entrance guarded by the Seventh Regiment."
"Eh? Do you want to temporarily change the arrangement?" The little girl blinked in surprise when she heard Kong's micro-operation.
"Although it's a bit hasty, the Bu Li people are not prepared either - they must be using the group in front to attract our attention and want to cause trouble elsewhere. We don't need to follow their pace... Please, Clara."
"Well, I trust my brother's judgment—"
After Sora explained, he called out to Silver Wolf and Haiya who were still busy working on the plan to seize all the city defenses in AHQ.
"Are you leaving?"
"PhD?"
"There's a change of plan. Silver Wolf, take over the automatic defense system of Fort K. in advance. We have to make sure that no ship other than the ship girl can float in orbit over Bay City."
"Well, the orbital defense network is less than 40% active. If the Bu Li people go all in, are you sure this can stop their fleet?"
Although he was puzzled, Silver Wolf was already very familiar with the annoying behavior of "Party A" suddenly changing its requirements: "Besides, it is a bit out of repair, and the firepower will be reduced by another 20%."
"Let's do it. Ruan Mei will help us fill in the remaining gaps."
"...Hmm? The genius from the Immortal Boat? Why don't I see her?"
"She's still debugging her test product. Don't worry, if there's any problem, we have a lot of backup people here."
There are no coincidences or whims, only careful planning and readiness.
Every accumulation of the past day is a perfect layout for greater advantage and near-complete victory tomorrow - the opposition has never lacked fighting power, what they lack is a more suitable reason.
Even if Kong himself was accompanying the girls in their so-called "debauchery" every day, he was only replenishing "ammunition" for Ying and Kama, so it couldn't be considered a complete waste.
Now Ying's dream has accumulated a full round of wish power, and Kama's figure has almost recovered to the maiden stage -
In addition to his comrades, Heita and Ruan Mei who has not yet appeared are the finale of this conflict. Even if the ground forces fail, Kong can guarantee that not even a single war beast that can walk away from humans will fly away from Yalilo alive.
[Befa, Nodai. 】
【commander.】
[——Entering level one combat readiness.]
【……yes!】
Level 1 combat readiness means that there is no need to spare fuel and ammunition supplies. Once a battle breaks out, the priority is to ensure one's own survival, the second priority is to ensure the advantage of outer space support, and then take into account the cover of ground forces.
The girls knew that the commander was serious this time, and all their engines were in full gear - knowledge that was not related to naval warfare was brewing in their minds.
After notifying the ship girl, Sora immediately contacted Bronya who had arrived with the last batch of trained Earthfire members.
[Kburg is assembling his army and is about to attack the front line. Return quickly.]
"...Everyone, march quickly--!"
The simple but urgent urging cheered up Banya, and he shouted at Xier to speed up.
Although she knew that the situation she could influence was actually limited, and that the power invested in Yalilo by both the company and the Genius Club was far greater than that of the local people, Bronya was still extremely eager.
If the conflict turns into a war, the ground forces will be the absolute protagonists. As long as they climb the high walls of Castle K and force the mother to bow her head, they will have legal control over the entire planet. In the starry sky, even Bu Liren's group of bandits must take into account the influence of the company and the club.
She just didn't know what her mother had paid to get the sponsorship of the werewolf... No, that didn't matter anymore. At this point, she and her mother had no way out.
"Xi'er, it's finally coming!"
Although it was obvious that a "reunion" with her mother would inevitably be accompanied by blood and gore, Bronya was not at all confused at this moment. After two months of waiting, she had realized through training and self-examination that she was Beloberg's only choice at the moment.
She carried the banner of the Great Guardian on her shoulders, and her eyes regained the confidence she had lost on the battlefield that day.
"Damn it, don't be so excited, you're making me excited too!" Seele rubbed her hands together, with the sickle hanging over her shoulder, only half a step behind Bronya.
"I didn't know you could smile so arrogantly. I'm really surprised—"
"Don't talk so weird..."
But soon Banya noticed that she was deliberately lagging behind, so he grabbed her arm and forced her to move side by side with him.
"Don't fall behind... We fight side by side—"
Nata, who followed the troops back to the surface, looked at the excitement of the two girls and smelled the inexplicable sweet fragrance coming out of them. She first put on a helpless auntie smile, and then gave additional instructions to her brothers and sisters on the ground fire -
"...Everyone, take the Snow and Wind Immunity Capsules immediately and prepare for battle."
In order to prevent the recruits' internal organs from overheating and causing heat stroke, Pera issued a notice in advance before the follow-up troops arrived in the city:
[Emergency notice: Xicheng District’s public heaters will temporarily stop heating for 24 hours. Individual homes will continue to be heated. Please stay at home and wait for the next instructions. The logistics department will distribute rations and fuel to individual homes. Repeat, please do not go out, do not walk around at will, and wait for the next instructions. ]
After all, Beloberg was formerly a war fortress, and its residents were quite calm about the notice, which was almost like an emergency evacuation, to shelter at home.
A war was about to break out - this thought flashed through their minds, but they did not think it was something particularly dangerous...
Strangely enough, the large "mechanical soldiers" that suddenly stood upright in the market and the solemn military appearance of the First Regiment of Iron Guards gave them a sense of security far greater than all the previous Iron Guards.
...Perhaps because they chose to support Bronya, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, and even Sora's ferocious MS looked much more pleasing to the eye.
"Boom."
"Eula, Haiya, come up, let's go to the north! Pick up Danheng and the others first - Silver Wolf, do you want to keep the terminal running here or come with us?"
"I won't move~"
After waving to them, Silver Wolf returned to the headquarters bored and continued to struggle with the Shit Mountain Code.
After bidding farewell to Silver Wolf, Eula simply sat down in the palm of the Iron Giant and asked loudly to Kong, who had just pulled up Haiya, diagonally below:
"Why go to the North? Aren't you going to help at the front?"
Although she followed Sora without any hesitation, Eula was still a little confused as to the purpose of his emergency dispatch.
"Bu Liren's goal is definitely not here. This is just the front line of the fight for the ownership of the administrative district. We are highly mobile and can come back and participate at any time--"
A rope was lowered from the sky so that those whose skills were not as outrageous as Haiya and Youla could also catch a ride on Gu Pang's car.
"Remember when they attacked the Seventh Regiment? I suspect they will continue to adopt a roundabout strategy. Even if I guess wrong, it doesn't matter. There are anchor points in the administrative district, and they can rush to the front at any time.
Kong did not close the cockpit cover and just walked northward from Xicheng District with the person in his arms.
The Buli people and the Guards who were slowly heading towards the confrontation line saw at a glance the huge mecha emerging from the buildings and heading to their right, in the opposite direction of the square. The inspector who was leading the march paused and hurriedly raised his staff to tell his subordinates not to act rashly.
"…Something has gone wrong. You must act quickly and resolve it before he reaches the north gate. If you are too late, at least kill the garrison officer."
The Buli warriors near the square immediately sent a warning to those troops who were going to fulfill the war leader's promise.
They didn't expect the other party to react so strongly - according to the information from the arbitrator and the spies, they were not ready yet.
Kong's judgment was correct... these guys did send spies here to observe the preparations at the front line, and there were quite a few of their people among the third batch of refugees driven out by Cocolia.
However, the information reported by the spies was slightly different from that of the "magic pill" that intended to continue confronting them head-on. Kong suddenly moved in the direction of the north gate of Beicheng, and might encounter the main ground force that attacked the Seventh Regiment.
Kong Xiu, who didn't know that Bu Liren was already sweating profusely, listened to the restless wind and pulled Haiya, who was beginning to curl up, into the innermost part of the cockpit, letting her stay at a fixed point on the back of the chair to avoid the cold.
[Look——By the way, it can also attract Bu Liren's attention! ]
Feeling the thousands of eyes focusing on him instantly, on the small map, red dots were mixed with yellow dots, and he felt that he had achieved half of his goal...
You dare not divide your forces? If you divide your forces, we will let you walk around like dogs.
[Why didn’t you bring Hua Lin and the others?] Haiya exhaled a breath of white air and untied the nylon cloth covering the staff behind Sora’s back.
[The main reason is that they are afraid that two waves of teleportation will not bring back everyone, so they just streamline the team. And don't forget, they are better at direct shooting - that machine gun can cover the entire square, and there is a black tower to protect them. ]
...In a sense, Kong is not much braver than those werewolves. His retreat route is almost paved to the next galaxy, and he is overly concerned about the girls' personal safety.
