Chapter 196 Star Wars Eve
After returning to the headquarters, I reported to Deputy Leader Cao Mengde at the alliance meeting about my experience of attacking the port, and Cao Mengde ordered the three-dimensional projection to be opened.
He pointed to the Hulao Pass in the projection and said: "At present, the enemy troops in Hulao Pass have been transformed by Liu Xuande's destruction of the port. The original fortress building of Hulao Pass, coupled with the floating city of Chang'an in the sky, form a 'Triath' formation model with the new space warships, which poses a challenge to our attack."
A general with a beard stood up, and Gongsun introduced to me that this man was General Cao Ren.
Cao Ren said: "We have calculated that if all our princes take out their true strength, they can completely create a devastating blow to Hulao Pass within 24 hours."
As soon as he said this, everyone shook their heads.
"How is it possible? The shell of Hulao Pass Fortress is so strong, with heavy troops guarding it, and there are Chang'an and space warships in the sky. How do you think you can take it down in twenty-four hours?"
Cao Ren said loudly: "Everyone can't trust me, mainly because although everyone knows their own strength, they don't know whether others will work hard at that time."
He faced Yuan Shu and said: "The newly developed electronic warfare fleet of Yuan's family army can suppress the radar and optoelectronic equipment of Dong Zhongying's army."
He turned to Sun Jian again: "The four thunder mechas of the Sun Group are no less powerful than those equipped by the eight generals of Dong Zhongying's troops."
He turned to Kong Rong, Beihai, and Kong Rongqiang smiled and said, "I have a weak power in the Beihai and can't come up with anything powerful."
"That's not to be said, the rich star malt ore in Beihai is a high-end product that everyone here covets."
Cao Ren expressed all the true strength hidden by the princes, either with powerful corps, unique military technology, or with logistics and economics. Cao Ren finally concluded: "If everyone is willing to let go, let alone Dong Zhongying, even this galaxy can destroy ten or eight times. Unfortunately, everyone doesn't want to use their full strength."
Sun Jian sneered: "General Cao said this at the meeting today. Do you want to force us to hand over everything to you?"
"It's not a question of being a slut, but..." Cao Ren came to Sun Jian, looked straight into his eyes and said, "We have been here for several months. Every day, people eat horses and chew, and logistics consumption is just astronomical. Everyone stays here every day, neither attacks nor withdraws troops, which puts too much pressure on us those in charge of logistics!"
Sun Jian's face was solemn: "I, Si Pili, just lost one. What else can you do to me? Hand over the remaining three? That's my personal bodyguard. If the personal bodyguard is gone, what if I encounter a thief named Cao who robs me and hurts me when I go out?"
When Cao Mengde and Yuan Benchu were young, they disguised themselves as robbers, robbed others' property, and even just married brides. Everyone listened to these things as jokes. Today, Sun Jian said these things, which was obviously revealing the Cao family's past. Cao Mengde and Cao Ren all showed disgust on their faces. Cao Ren did not continue to force him to hand over the Four Thunderbolts, but turned to other princes.
In fact, Cao Ren's words today make some sense. Originally, if everyone was intrigue among the princes, there would be no problem if they were to level Hulao Pass while it was hot. But now everyone is squatting at home and not going out. The opposite side not only strengthened the defense of Hulao Pass, but also transferred two powerful warships. If they remained unmoved, they didn't know what Dong Zhongying would create. They had the Chang'an Arsenal and Chang'an Research Institute as their backing, and they had already taken back Lu Fengxian and Diao Chan... I can't predict what would happen later.
A general hurried into the conference hall, it was Cao Zhang.
Cao Zhang came to Cao Mengde, took out something, and whispered a few words to Cao Mengde.
Yuan Shu snorted and said, "What are you doing with everyone on your back?"
Cao Zhang's face was covered with murderous aura, and Cao Mengde waved his hand and signaled him to retreat.
"I sent Cao Zhang to fly a high reconnaissance plane to investigate the space warship above my head, and the result was..."
Yuan Shu snorted again: "Did you send high-level reconnaissance planes without authorization, but you didn't even say hello to everyone?"
There was a guy with a big waist next to him, who had been dissatisfied with Yuan Shu. Now that he heard Yuan Shu say this, he immediately slapped the table and stood up.
"What's wrong?! The surname Yuan, you have the latest strategic electronic warfare troops and strategic reconnaissance troops in your hands, but when facing Dong Zhongying's army, you only know how to hide these troops. Our General Cao saw that the warship in the sky was very strange and did not have ready-made reconnaissance aircraft, so he dismantled a high-altitude high-interceptor aircraft and converted it into a reconnaissance aircraft. How dangerous is it to drive such an aircraft?! All of this was forced out by your Yuan family! Who are we for?! Isn't it all for the purpose of defeating Dong Zhongying earlier?!"
This protest left Yuan Shu completely speechless.
Cao Mengde said: "It's rude. This is my subordinate Dian Wei Dian Wei. It's really rude to you to speak to General Yuan Shu like this. I will punish you after I go back. You can sit down first."
He came to the holographic projector and inserted what Cao Zhang brought into the projector.
"Everyone, this is the photo Cao Zhang took on the reconnaissance plane. Let's enlarge the photo first so that everyone can see it clearly."
The photo was presented to everyone through holographic projection, and everyone stared at it with their necks stretched out their breath. The photo included Chang'an and the space warship, and some kind of "pipe" seemed to be built between the two.
"They can transfer personnel and equipment through these pipes, and I suspect they are transferring something from Chang'an to space warships."
Cao Mengde's speculation was very bold, and some of the princes present expressed their doubts.
Bao Xin asked: "Chang'an is their headquarters? If Chang'an is abandoned and they transfer everything to space warships, what's the point?"
Cao Mengde replied: "According to the information obtained by our intelligence personnel, the reason why Dong Zhongying wanted to occupy Chang'an was because Chang'an has three treasures - Chang'an Research Institute, Chang'an Arsenal, and Chang'an Xingmei Furnace. The equipment of the research institute and the arsenal can be transferred. The Xingmei Furnace is actually close to failure before we left Chang'an."
Sun Jian asked: "Can't the star marrow furnace burn all the time?"
Cao Mengde said: "No, anything has a lifespan. Although the Star Marrow Furnace was designed by Mr. Shuijing, it is not eternal. Since Zhang Jiao caused damage in Chang'an last time, the Star Marrow Furnace has been damaged. We once tried to repair the Star Marrow Furnace, but Dong Zhongying seized Chang'an and forced us to give up this idea. During the period when Dong Zhongying occupied Chang'an, he could completely replicate the technology of the Star Marrow Furnace. Even if it was not as powerful as the original Star Marrow Furnace, at least it could... "
However, his statement was too incredible, and the princes of various families started to argue again.
I hesitated for a moment and stood up.
"Everyone, I am Liu Xuande. I have attacked the port before and saw that space warship there. Compared with the warships we usually see, it has some other characteristics, such as its degree. It can take off and land vertically from the hangar and quickly increase to the point where ordinary fighters cannot catch up with it. In terms of its size, this should be a motivation similar to the Star Marrow Furnace."
"Yes." Sun Jian nodded, "It makes sense. Now this warship is parked next to Chang'an, maintaining a suspended state. Usually, floating warships must at least land to replenish fuel, but they do not need it. This is very similar to Chang'an with the Star Marrow Furnace."
Han Fu questioned: "Even if you have to transfer the main force to that warship, what's the point? Will Dong Zhongying give up Chang'an?"
Cao Mengde nodded: "This is possible. Chang'an is a city after all. Even if it is armored, it looks like a floating warship, but it is fundamentally different from a warship."
