65 Battle Situation Analysis Meeting 1 (1/2)
Damn, if I could kill you, I would have done so a long time ago, but i truly do not know what you are thinking! Fatty’s stomach was full of grievance.
Thinking about it for half a day only to arrive back at the original spot, the depressed Tian Xing Jian began completing the deduction work on his table which he had yet to finish. Currently, it was an unusual period [1]. If he were to be charged for not completing his duty just because he was late with his deduction, then he would just feel wronged.
With an extremely fast speed, Fatty began auditing several combat plans by first retrieving files by inserting cards into the computer. Afterwards, with the obtained data, he would begin his deduction.
After finishing the tasks at hand, he casually took out the report regarding the battle in outer space which Karl had showed him. Right now at the Newton Galaxy, several outer space fleets were engaged in an intense battle. Other than the 1st United Fleet, the 2nd United fleet, which was stationed just right outside the space warp point, had been attacked as well. Furthermore, the outer space fleets specially assembled by the Empire attacking them was approximately twice their number, totalling to six motherships!
According to the intelligence report’s preliminary analysis, these fleets were the Federation’s 3rd and 9th Fleets, which had taken advantage of the enemy to disturb their rear lines [1]. After using the public starfield to return to the Central Starfield to reorganize, the Empire’s outer space fleets composed of a mixture of the fleets from the Galileo Galaxy had intended to completely eradicate the Federation’s outer space military strength in Newton Galaxy in order to improve the conditions for the surface troops.
Other than the size of the fleets, regardless of whether it was the overall fighting strength or the soldier's’ capabilities, the Empire’s fleets, which had been on the battlefield for a long time, would certainly be on another level when compared to the Federation’s, and what the Federation could depend on was solely their hot-bloodedness.
With the overall situation being so gloomy even now, who would have thought that such a situation would even be happening in outer space!?!
If the outer space fleets were lost, then Miracolo Planet would be doomed! This heavy fist of Russell was truly accurate and fierce; most likely, it had been forming ever since the period when the Federation’s Operation Lightning was in its early stages, slowly weaving the net before leading to the current outcome. The retreat of their surface forces prior to their reorganization, the plan of losing a battle only to seize the Banfoli Mountain Pass, the ground troops’ pursuit, the Garo Mountain region’s reckless offense, and an accurate plan of targeting the Federation’s disturbance fleets when they were low on energy and supply—these were all accurately chained together, leaving the Federation a single day to react with a counterattack. Such a military commanding art truly made others shiver from fear, as the entire war had been playing out since the start in Russell's mind—the outcome of this game of chess had already been long calculated!
Just as Tian Xing Jian became entranced with his thoughts, the door was pushed opened and Karl pulled him up. “The general headquarters decided to call for a battle situation analysis meeting. Colonel Pater asked me to call you to go over to the grand meeting room.”
The two of them hurriedly rushed over to the combat planning department’s grand meeting room. It was filled with people, as almost every single research unit’s small team’s leading staff officer from the combat planning department were gathered here. Fatty could not refrain from heaving a sigh inwardly. From the huge amount of positions the enemy territory had, the meeting by the forward command had most likely not ended with a definite conclusion.
Ordinarily, such battle situation analysis meetings would be restricted to the several generals and various directors of the research units; there had never been a case where the meeting was extended to the small teams of staff officers from the research units, as these small teams were mainly responsible for analyzing deductions and coming up with combat plans. The final audit would still be done by the forward command, and the forward command would base their orders on these plans and the reasoning behind those deductions.
Right now, it seemed there was no conclusion to the meeting started by the forward command. Since the analysis became bigger, they had to convene an expanded meeting in an attempt to procure more opinions from a larger audience in order to find the hidden objective of the enemy.
Reaching the entrance of the meeting room, Pater waved his hand and let Karl leave. The poor Karl could only give Fatty a look before turning back and walking away.
Watching the director of the 6th Research Unit bring a second lieutenant staff officer, all the colonels within the meeting room looked towards each other in dismay.
