Counterfeit Hero

March 28, 2064 is destined to be unforgettable for many people.

Generals would still remember the details of that day when writing their memoirs or being interviewed by reporters many years later. Perhaps the most representative one is the passage narrated by the famous reporter who shot the war feature film on the day of his 80th birthday, Marshal Macchia of the Republic of Lane.

Sitting in his study, holding a pipe, he described it this way...

I remember that we were in Tactical Room No. 1 on the fourth floor of the command center of the flagship [Heidfield].

The room is very bright. Electronic lights spread across the entire ceiling illuminate the surrounding area in a white light. Next to the wall are standard tactical deduction computers and various instruments. The largest is the Electron Star Map. It takes up an entire wall. An eight-meter-high light curtain falls from the ceiling like a waterfall. In the center of the room is an electronic sandbox. The screen of light on the sand table is like a shrunken universe. Sometimes standing next to it and looking at the planet and battleships, you will have the illusion that you are God.

You know Despite being over eighty years old, Macchia still has the charm of an artist. He took off the pipe from his mouth and pointed the pipe handle at the reporter: You can do whatever you want up there. Then the planet, nebula, asteroid belt, route and data are right before your eyes and at your fingertips. If If you have the brains and the military, maybe you can change the world.

The God of that day was General Tian Xingjian? the reporter asked with a slight smile.

Macchia did not make a sound but remained silent. For a long time, memories and respect appeared on his wrinkled face. Yes, that day he would be God!

It was quiet in the study, and the old man's flowing silver hair and his face, although old, had the unique charm of an old man, were looming in the smoke.

Since the retreat from the Double Star Corridor, when Fujii Go and I chatted in private, we were both full of curiosity and respect for General Le Lei, who is younger than us.

Curious because of his background as a mechanic, the twelfth-generation mechas of the bandit warships under his command, and his experience and achievements. And respectable because we see his efforts with our own eyes every day.

If you haven't seen how he defeated General Tsuyoshi Fujii in the game, how he studied and commanded sleeplessly during the retreat from Double Star Point, and how he worked hard in the game computer and game cabin, you wouldn't understand him. I can’t imagine how much I have sacrificed for this war. What does this guy with no seriousness look like when he is serious?”

I like to see someone serious. The reporter nodded and said, Sometimes when I sit behind my desk and see my secretary busy doing things for me, I feel a strange fascination. I think so. Keep watching.”

Your secretary must be a beautiful woman! Macchia, who is over eighty years old, winked mischievously, I'll tell you a secret, I also like beautiful female secretaries.

The reporter laughed.

It is well known that this marshal, who has been married sixteen times in his life, is a romantic person.

Four of his wives were his secretaries. There is no secret here.

Let's put aside the beautiful female secretary for a moment, the reporter said with a smile, Let's talk about the combat meeting that was related to the fate of the entire Fiji League. As a participant in the meeting, I believe you must have a very deep memory of this moment.

Of course that was the most important moment in my life. Macchia nodded.

It starts when you hear a word from Wang Nanxu? The reporter has obviously done enough homework.

Yes. Macchia smoked his pipe, We all heard the conversation between General Tian and Margaret. Although I'm not sure, when I turned around and saw Fujii Go's eyes, I thought I heard it right. , they did mention the name Wang Nanxu. So when General Tian was about to hold a pre-war meeting and announce his plan, the heartbeats of each of us suddenly accelerated inexplicably.

According to General McKinley's memories, the reporter looked down at his notebook, he said that since Marshal Hastings became seriously ill, everyone, including him, had no idea what the coalition's next move would be. Base Camp More than a thousand plans were made, all of which were rejected. And since General Tian Xingjian gave up the jumping point, many officers and soldiers thought that the coalition forces could give up.

I have lost count of how many plans were rejected. Macchia bit her pipe and said. However, after discussing in private, we all believe that there is no suspense about this battle. To be honest, no one is confident about defeating Sobol, and they don't have a clue. In our opinion, losing Southeast is only a matter of time. The only thing we could sit on at the time was to be ready to sacrifice. .

The reporter did not interrupt the old man's narration and just looked at him quietly.

When General Tian Xingjian announced the pre-war meeting, I was standing less than two meters away from him. At that time, the flagship [Headfield] was located in space more than three million kilometers away from the capital star. The surrounding space There is nothing empty. From my perspective, the floor-to-ceiling windows behind General Goda are spotless. The stars outside the window are bright, and thousands of white stars are like crystal pendants hanging in the black universe. The curtain sparkled as the lights turned.”

The old man looked at the study window and fell into memories...

It's time to let everyone know my plans.

Until they sat down in the tactical conference room, watched the heavy automatic door slowly close, and watched the lights dim, the generals were still in a daze, as if they were in a dream.

Fatty's words and Wang Nanxu's name kept echoing in their ears and rolling in their minds. All kinds of thoughts are like red-hot irons.

McKinley beside the fat man whispered: Why are you?

Now I am the successor of Marshal Hastings, the commander of the Fiji Alliance. The fat man whispered quietly, then raised his head and said loudly: I think you are very surprised that artificial intelligence is such an absolute secret. Why are you telling everyone here?

The reason is simple, Fatty said every word, because we will experience a arduous war together.

The excited generals all fell silent and looked at him intently.

I don't need to say anything more about the importance and difficulty of this battle. The name Sobol is enough to make us understand how powerful the enemy is before us.

Marshal Hastings said there is no victory without sacrifice. I don't know how many Allied soldiers we will sacrifice in this battle, how many generals will die on the battlefield, and how many soldiers will disappear into the universe with their battleships. . But I know that if we cannot unite and trust each other, then our sacrifices will be worthless.

The fat man's voice echoed in the room. You may wonder why Emperor Binart was able to catch up and overtake the Feiant Republic, which was leading in all aspects, in just twenty years. The reason is because they got an artificial intelligence named Little Girl twenty years ago. The fat man said, With the little girl in full control, Binart's economy becomes more competitive, and their resource utilization is more efficient. Both minerals and manpower are allocated to where they can be most effective.

When this country has been preparing for a world war thirty years ago and formulated a series of policies aimed at this goal, with the help of a little girl, you can imagine what the result will be.

The generals looked at each other in shock. Fatty's words were like a bolt of lightning that shattered the fog.

If West York has artificial intelligence and has been preparing to launch this war many years ago, then everyone can imagine that when the member of the Supreme Council of the Fiji League still arrogantly believed that West Yoyo could not challenge the Fiji League, and rejected Fiji again and again. How happy William III and Sober were when the military budgets and procurement lists of the Allied countries were still arguing over whether to expand their armies.

This is not a war that breaks out by chance.

The human world's basically exhausted energy and the Binart Empire's ambition to conquer the world have already doomed everything. This also explains why Xijue's military strength is so strong. Why were they able to seize 80% of the key jumping points in human interstellar shipping lanes with a lightning-fast offensive at the beginning of the war?

With the assistance of artificial intelligence, Xiyo has an indisputable advantage over Skynet information and command in terms of troop deployment and deployment.

But there's one thing I've always felt strange... Fatty said, In Leray's science laboratory, many experiments were completed with the help of little kids. Our technological level has improved very quickly. This is something we have done through banditry. You can tell by looking at the military’s ships and weapons and equipment. And the Binart Empire doesn’t seem to have made any leaps forward in this regard. Except for…the Adjudicator.”

Of course this involves a puzzling secret and a historical case that has nothing to do with the battle we are facing now. The fat man tapped his fingers on the table and stood up. They have a little girl and we have a brat. This is the first strategic spare part that our coalition forces compare with the Sobol fleet. We are equal in this regard.

Let's talk about the second item... Fatty walked to the star map.

Perhaps you have heard something just now, so I might as well tell you frankly that the reason why I didn't keep everyone waiting on the front line for so long before the Battle of Double Star Points started is because I was on my way from the Salega Federation to A3 at that time. On the way to the galaxy.

The fat man's words caused a commotion again.

Even without Fatty saying anything, the generals had already guessed what he was doing in Salega.

Many Fei League generals, including Fujii Tsuyoshi, blushed because they had used this as an excuse to hit the fat man on the head.

I won’t go into detail about what happened in Salga. What I can tell you is that the Salega Federation has returned to the Fiji League under the leadership of General Wang Nanxu. They will fight side by side with us to resist Western invasion. Now Admiral Wang Nanxu has led two batches of troops, totaling ten A-class fleets, to gather at the jump point of the Jipeng North Sea System. Always ready to attack. At the same time, ten A-class fleets composed of the Lere Federation, the Republic of Chakna, the Republic of Poutok, and the Tatanian Free Alliance are also in our Lere, Admiral Malki and General Chakna Panglong Banner. Under the leadership of General Wang Nanxu, they joined together.

Beihai Galaxy?

Machia stood up suddenly and walked quickly to the star map.

Jeppen's Boreal System lies north of Jeppen. It is a strategic location connecting Jepensus to the public system leading to Leray Bermuda. At first, Suss and Jiepen turned against each other many times for this galaxy. Over the past millennium, the North Sea Galaxy has changed hands several times, and finally Jie Pen took control of it.

Once the Beihai Galaxy is captured, it will not only mean that Wang Nanxu and the others can directly attack the capital of Jiepen, which is only two galaxies away, but it also means that they can directly enter the hinterland of the Suss Empire and start killing.
