"Boss! Latest news! Latest news! "Zilong excitedly rushed into Ling Lan's office from the command center.
Ling Lan raised her head calmly. "What news?"
"The 13th Division has officially declared war against the Twilight Empire in the Wild Star Sector!" Zilong said excitedly.
The 13th Division was his father's division. Although he and his father had quarreled over the fact that he wanted to stay by Boss's side, his father still admitted defeat in the end and agreed to his choice. Zilong still admired his father a lot. Of course, he could only be second to his father.
He had no choice. Boss had already taken the first position. Actually, Zilong was already treating his father very well. At least, he didn't put General Ling Xiao before his father.
"Yes!" Ling Lan nodded to show that she understood. Then, she flipped through the documents in her hands and asked calmly, "What about the movements of the other divisions?"
Zilong's face froze when he heard this. When he heard this news, he immediately rushed over to share it with Boss. He didn't have time to check on the other divisions.
"We don't know the movements of the 4th Division. The 7th Division is traveling through the Zeyu Star Sector. We think that they will choose Planet Muliu as their target to restrain the defense forces of the Twilight Empire." A gentle voice rang out from the door. Ling Lan raised her head and saw Li Lanfeng and the others already in her office.
Ling Lan nodded to them. "Everyone is here!"
"Commander!" Everyone saluted in unison.
"Let's go to the meeting room and discuss the attack route of the Twilight Empire." Ling Lan stood up and brought everyone to the meeting room at the side.
Everyone sat down one by one. The team leaders who had time all came over. Even the department heads of the logistics department tried their best to squeeze out some time. Now, in the Lingtian Independent Army, Ling Lan would arrange for a group discussion every once in a while to discuss the changes in the situation of the war between the Federation and the Twilight Empire.
This time, the two armies had officially declared war. It also meant that there was no longer any possibility for the two nations to take a detour. It was truly a battle of life and death.
"Everyone, feel free to speak your mind. Open your minds and speculate to your heart's content. Don't worry too much about whether it's reasonable or not." Ling Lan, who was sitting in the main seat, said.
Everyone looked at each other in silence. Li Lanfeng stood up and said with a smile, "Why don't I start by saying what I think?" He walked out and turned on the A.I. in the conference room. One of the walls suddenly turned into a screen. A dark starry sky and countless planets appeared on the screen.
Li Lanfeng swiped the screen a few times, and finally locked onto the star chart of the Twilight Empire.
"According to the information we received, it's clear that the 13th Division is in charge of attacking from the front while the 7th Division is in charge of pinning down the enemy from the side. The 23rd Division is in charge of holding the rear and providing support at any time. As for the 4th Division, their whereabouts are currently unknown. They might be hiding beside the other two divisions, or they might be on another path, carrying out some other mission. It's just that we don't know what mission they are carrying out. "Li Lanfeng roughly guessed the missions of the other divisions based on the information he received.
"I personally believe that the 4th Division is carrying out a sneak attack mission to disrupt the enemy. They'll light fires all over the Twilight Empire and try their best to pin down the strength of the Twilight resistance army so that they won't dare to concentrate too much of their forces on the main and flanks battlefields." This was Li Lanfeng's judgment.
Li Lanfeng's judgment made many of the team leaders nod in agreement.
Han Jijun heard this and frowned slightly. He thought carefully for a moment and then asked, "I just have a question. According to Big Leader Li's prediction, this war is using brute force tactics … but, does time allow us to push through the planets one by one?"
"Although this tactic is very appropriate and almost never goes wrong, the number of god-class operators sent out this time also exceeds the number of god-class operators in the Twilight Empire. Logically speaking, if we just push through the planets like this, the final victory will belong to us. However, everyone knows that the biggest restriction on the Federation isn't power but time. Once Caesar makes a decision and prepares to enter the war, we will be in a passive position. " Yang Mingzhi was very worried about this. If possible, no one would want to experience an intergalactic war. That would be an unsalvageable situation.
"The war just started so we don't know what the next step of the army is. Maybe the general has other plans for this," Liu Furong added.
"Maybe the current war is just a probing attack. The 7th Division is in the Zeyu galaxy. Although everyone thinks that they are going to attack Planet Muliu, the war hasn't started yet. Everything is still a guess. It might not be accurate," Luo Lang said coldly. Everyone knew that Luo Lang must have brought out the calm personality.
"The information we have is still too little. It's lagging behind," Xie Yi said regretfully. As a galaxy on the opposite side of the Twilight Empire, the information they received was later than the Federation's military headquarters. This was the result of Meng Lan intercepting the information. If not, they would have received it even later.
"We don't have a choice. After all, we aren't on the frontlines of the war. The information we can get is only what the frontlines are willing to give us." Li Lanfeng sighed. Compared to the higher-ups of the military headquarters who might know the real plan of attack, the soldiers in the rear could only make wild guesses based on the incomplete information. Usually, the results of their guesses would be completely different from what was happening on the frontlines.
"Actually, when I asked you to summarize the information and make guesses, I didn't ask you to perfectly replicate the frontlines' attack plan. I just hope that you all can quickly familiarize yourself with this kind of large-scale intergalactic war." Ling Lan saw that everyone was dejected because they didn't have the correct information and couldn't deduce the frontlines' attack plan.
When everyone heard this, they looked at their commander in surprise. It should be known that a newly formed division (including an independent division) wouldn't be sent out for war within three years.
"No one knows what will happen in the next second. That's why we need to prepare for war as soon as possible. The more prepared we are, the less unnecessary sacrifices we can make. I hope that everyone will remember this," Ling Lan reminded everyone sternly.
"Yes, commander!" Everyone was shocked. They all stood up and accepted the order.
Ling Lan gestured for everyone to sit down and continue the original topic.
At that moment, Yan Three, who had been silent all this while, struggled for a while before he finally opened his mouth. "Commander, I'm an uneducated man. I don't know much about battle tactics. I can only summarize my battle experience and give you my opinion."
"Say it. Sometimes, your battle experience is more useful than your guesses," Ling Lan encouraged him.
"Usually, if we want to end the battle earlier, we will choose to ambush the command center and destroy it. That way, the battle will end." Yan Three told everyone their choice.
