Hidden Yao Era

Returning to Phobos, Castow was ordered to go to Fleet Command, eager to learn about the massive landing by the Pluto rover. He also prayed that Sonya was in the group of Xinyin troops he had captured.

However, Vice Admiral James Allen, commander of the Mobile Fleet, was not very concerned about the landing of the Pluto rover. He believed that such a large fleet would certainly not be an opponent in itself, and that the General Headquarters would definitely hold an emergency meeting to discuss countermeasures before making a decision. He was even more anxious to deal with this group of more than 200,000 prisoners.

Vice Admiral James Allen, the commander of the fleet, appreciated Casto's proposal at a critical moment, saying that he would help Casor get credit from the higher-ups. At the same time, he learns that Castor and the Hearttones have fought on Titan. Having not known much about the Xinyin faction, he wanted Casto to help him communicate with the high-ranking officers who had been captured this time.

When Lieutenant General Aaron saw Casto, he said enthusiastically: "Ah, heroes of Titan, you have become a hero again in this battle, do you know how many lives you have saved? "

Then he said to Lieutenant General Vasilyev: "You also made a very rational choice. Reason separates you from the cultists, and I believe that with this reason, we can communicate well. "

Then he said to Casto: "Lieutenant Colonel Cavendish Ash, I don't know much about the Hearts Voice. I just read some information and learned that their religion is a kind of spirit? Ah, I can't understand it. Hahaha, I'm even a little scared, I feel like I'm having a hard time grasping something so nihilistic, I'm afraid I might have some misunderstandings about them. "

"You don't have to worry, their spirit contains the laws and origins of all things in the world, as well as the sensibility and rationality of the beauty of human nature. Their teachings are complex, but they are also very direct and accessible because they focus on what the human heart feels. As Casto had finished speaking, he noticed Lieutenant General Vasilyev's strange gaze at him, which then gradually changed from surprise to mildness.

"Ah, you know your enemies well. They're prisoners of war now, but they still have close to a million troops. Haha, I think I have to be careful what I say, I don't want the lieutenant general to be angry, it is said that you Xinyin factions are more emotional. Lieutenant General Arun said.

"Well, it's okay, we're grateful that you chose to surrender after surrounding us. As long as you don't deny our beliefs and don't insult our personality, we won't blame you. Lieutenant General Vasilyev said.

"Ah, good, good, you're not as crazy as the Celestial Voices. Lieutenant General Vasilyev, first of all, I would like to understand, why were you betrayed?" asked Lieutenant General Arun impatiently.

"Because of the political struggle, our Xinyin faction was originally at a disadvantage in the political struggle. In this Mars battle, the high-level of our Xinyin faction strongly opposed it, but after all, we couldn't resist the high-level of the Tianyin faction and the Shenyin faction. "

"In this operation, we were ostensibly arranged to attack two moons of Mars. In fact, it was not enough to cooperate with our combat fleet, and they rushed forward to meet the enemy and then withdrew. It is clear that we want to leave our weak landing fleet behind, and we have no other choice but to surrender. Lieutenant General Vasilyev sighed.

"Ah, that's frustrating, but you don't have to fight anymore. Casto: Does it make them uncomfortable when I say that? I know they're a bit belligerent with the Pluto Rover, do they feel insulted when I say that? I don't want to cause misunderstanding because I didn't mean to say that. Lieutenant General Arun said.

"You're too cautious, they shouldn't be angry. As far as I know, the Hearts are the most free and peaceful of the Pluto wanderers. Casto said.

"Oh, that's great, it's a very rational choice. I've caught one of the Celestial Voices major before, and that man is a lunatic who can barely communicate. Since they are all more rational people, it is easy to discuss, what benefits do you need to gain by surrendering? I mean, on what terms will you disband your troops?" asked Lieutenant General Aaron.

"As long as you can guarantee our safety and freedom, and do not harm us or interfere with our faith, I can disband my troops unconditionally. Lieutenant General Vasilyev said.

"What? I don't quite understand this, but you have more than 200,000 people, which is a lot of ...... Very...... Well, you're really good, are you sure you don't want to say anything else?" Lieutenant General Arun was a little confused.

"We are tired of war, and if it allows us to live normally, and allows us to keep our faith, that is the greatest favor for us. Lieutenant General Vasilyev said firmly.

"Well, I don't understand, what do they have to gain by doing this? It seems to me that they ...... Can you explain?" asked Lieutenant General Aaron in a whisper to Casto.

"They have kindness from the heart. Castor didn't say anything more after that.

"Oh, I see. Alas, you don't want to go to war either. Haha, so you two factions are squeezing you out? I see, I'll explain this to the higher-ups. Lieutenant General, go back and rest first. Lieutenant General Arun said.

"Oh, there's another meeting at the top, and heck, the Pluto rover is luring us out as an outcast, and then taking the opportunity to land on Mars and have a good time. Lieutenant General Aaron smiled helplessly after speaking.

"Will you come with me to the meeting, Captain Castor?" suggested Vice Admiral Arlen.

"Yes, sir!" Casto was eager to go to Lieutenant General Vasilyev to ask about Sonya's whereabouts. But he was afraid of arousing suspicion, so he had to obey his superiors.

The emergency meeting has been in place for half an hour. At the meeting, the high-ranking generals were fiercely arguing. "We should attack their main fleet while they are still on the ground!" said the Chief of the General Staff, who was as urgent as he had been in the previous meeting.

"No, they have already established a blockade, it will be difficult for us to break through, and if we force a breakthrough, the losses will be very huge. Admiral Li Miaowu said, but at this time he became calm.

"I just received news that our support fleet is unlikely to come, and the fleets near Saturn have all been scattered. The troops in the vicinity of Jupiter were held in place at the behest of Jupiter Industries. We may only be able to use the forces of Venus or Mercury, but they will need to cross the enemy blockade line to come, and the losses will be significant. Lieutenant General Walker analyzed the current dire situation.

"What if...... What about the use of the Central Guards in Weiyang City?" General Li Miaowu made a bold suggestion. Weiyang City is the first space city of mankind, located on the earth, and is the mother of human space cities. There are more than 20,000 elite ships stationed inside, but this elite fleet will not be dispatched unless it is absolutely necessary.

"No, this is too risky, what should we do if Weiyang City is empty and the Pluto Wanderers take advantage of the situation to attack Weiyang City?" Lieutenant General Walker vetoed his proposal.

"Weiyang City is the origin of the entire universe, Pluto rovers shouldn't have the courage to fight Weiyang City, right?" said Admiral Li Xuanwu.

"In the past, I might have agreed with Admiral Lee's suggestion, but this time I don't dare to agree, I do know that the rovers are a bunch of crazy people who can do anything!" said the chief of the general staff.

"What is the current situation on Mars?" asked Admiral Li Xiaowu to the chief of intelligence, Lieutenant General Rafael Banchero.

"They have already landed 500,000 troops on Mars, and they are led by the Third Army Group, and 50,000 square kilometers of Martian territory have been lost, accounting for about 2% of the total area of Mars. Lieutenant General Banchero replied.

"Third Army Group taking the lead?" Castor's heart tightened, it was Sonya's unit. In other words, the Third Army Group is still in the war, they are not completely discarded as outcasts, and Sonia may be fighting on the surface of Mars at this time.

"Hmph! That's accurate enough. But you never know when the Pluto rovers will come, not even when they will go behind Mars. Lieutenant General Lewis, director of the Operations Division, scoffed.

"They used the latest stealth technology from Antonios, and we had no access to it. The relationship between Antonios and us was so delicate that we did not dare to penetrate Antonios. You don't know what our intelligence agents are doing!" Lieutenant General Banchero was a little angry.

"Hmph! I'm still making excuses for my incompetence. Lieutenant General Lewis scoffed.

Admiral Li Miaowu directly and rudely interrupted their quarrel: "Okay, stop arguing, what's the use of arguing about this now? We have to quickly solve the problem of the next action." We have to stop them from landing, and I think first we have to send mobile forces to harass their landing ships and attract their main forces to come over. Then, our carriers use strategic strikes to wear down their ships and create enough damage. "

"We're still going to have to take advantage of the orbit of the Martian moon, I looked at the time, and in 16 hours, Deimos will be running to their landing site. We can use the large-caliber ion cannons and other urban fire power on Phobos to annihilate their fleet as much as possible. "

"After destroying their fleet, we will be able to use the warships to destroy their ground forces. We fought them before because their warships held us back, so we couldn't wipe out their land forces through our fleets. This time, we must use the heavy firepower of Deimos to wipe out their fleet. Admiral Li Miaowu said.

"But don't they know about the orbit of the Martian moons? Even if they don't have advanced technology, they still know this kind of astrological knowledge, right? will they stupidly stay where we are and let the heavy fire of Deimos destroy them all?" Lieutenant General Walker questioned.

"Of course I do, so you need bait that is tempting enough to lure them into staying where they are. Admiral Li Miaowu said.

"What bait?" asked the Chief of the General Staff, confused.

"I!, Commander-in-Chief of the Mars Fleet, Li Miaowu!" Admiral Li Miaowu said categorically.
