Inside the room, the swords were drawn.
John kept telling himself that the two marshals couldn't fight. After all, this was the Federation barracks. After all, Windsor Bellow still had the title of Marshal of the Federation. Unless she wanted the Federation and the Golden Lion to fall out, this should just be a formality. However, no matter how he looked at it, the atmosphere was not right. John noticed that the objects in the room began to tremble slightly. The Origin Energy flames on the two marshals' bodies were rising at a constant rate, and the two of them were growing at almost the same rate!
"Windsor Bellow, are you serious?" Capullo frowned.
Windsor Bellow chuckled and narrowed her eyes, "Do you know that after you left, the Kidds put in another main fleet?" Do you know what price our Sirius soldiers paid to repel them? If that was all, then it would have been fine, but you actually pulled away the entire golden lion. I can't tolerate this. Everyone knows that I, Windsor Bellow, am greedy for money, but I have a bottom line. What about you, old thing, where is your bottom line? Are you trying to add insult to injury at this time? "
"I have my own reasons."
"Reason?" Windsor Bellow pulled the brim of her hat and said, "Let your so-called reason go to hell. Since you won't explain, then this shot is for the interstellar defense line and all the dead on the night of the invasion!"
She reached out and took off the star on her shoulder.
Capullo's expression changed drastically. Windsor Bellow's actions clearly showed that she wanted to separate herself from the Federation, telling everyone that what she did today had nothing to do with the Federation.
Just as Windsor Bellow was about to throw away the star, someone grabbed her hand and wrapped the star tightly in her palm. At the corner of Windsor Bellow's eyes, an old man smiled gently and shook his head.
When she saw him, Windsor Bellow knew that the fight would not happen. Capullo was the first to withdraw his Origin Energy, and the air in the room returned to normal. Adjutant John sat on the ground without any regard for his image. Only now did his body start to tremble violently. The old man holding Windsor Bellow's palm was naturally Horn. Only he could still move freely under the confrontation of the two supreme experts' auras.
Windsor Bellow said stiffly, "Why did you stop me?"
"Because you guys fought too early. If you want to fight, wait until the Nelm people are chased away before you fight. At that time, I won't be happy to pay attention to you." Horn looked at Capullo and smiled, "As for now, whoever wants to make a move, ask my Qiu Yan first."
Capulo frowned and said, "Your injuries?"
"Not yet, but I can still stop the two of you." Horn loosened his grip and coughed violently. It was obvious that stopping Windsor Bellow was not as easy as it seemed.
Only then did Mobius walk in. He coughed dryly and said, "Can the two of you sit down and talk now?"
Windsor Bellow snorted and put the general star back on. She pulled over a chair and sat down. The Origin Tool that appeared in her normal state was placed beside her. She simply put her legs on the table and pulled down the brim of her hat, clearly not giving Capullo a good look. Capullo sat down in a serious manner, and the adjutant who had pulled him up stood behind him with weak hands and feet. When Horn sat down in the chair next to Windsor Bellow, Mobius walked to the middle and looked at the people below. "Two minutes ago, I received bad news. Our ally, the support fleet commanded by Duke Gulliver, will not be able to arrive anytime soon. "
Windsor Bellow did not react, while Capullo narrowed his eyes. Only Horn asked, "What's wrong?"
Mobius made a helpless expression and said, "Spatial Oscillation. Our spy satellites happened to capture this scene. The people of Nelm used this technology to interfere with the warp channel of the Adahua Planet fleet. Now we have temporarily lost contact with Duke Gulliver. If they can't use the passageway, it will be very difficult for them to arrive in a short period of time. "
"Then what's your plan?" Capullo went straight to the point.
Mobius nodded and said, "That's why I invited you here today."
The Federation President said in a heavy tone, "We are fighting on multiple fronts on the surface, but this will not drive the Nelms away. Instead, it will turn the war into a tug-of-war. And this is what our enemies would like to see. Have you ever thought about why the Nelms are so powerful in outer space? Mr. Capullo's Golden Lion and Marshal Windsor Bellow's Sirius can smoothly enter Earth? "
Horn lowered his head slightly. Mobius's different names for the two former marshals made him, an old noble, sigh endlessly in his heart. Horn didn't resent Capullo's "betrayal", at least not as angry as Windsor Bellow. Probably in the young woman's heart, she regarded herself and Capullo as soldiers first, followed by all sorts of identities. If Capullo had only betrayed the Federation this time, Windsor Bellow probably wouldn't have made such a big fuss. However, Capullo's actions were tantamount to betraying the army, which was hard for her to accept as a soldier.
Especially the interstellar defense line, Sirius had paid a high price to repel the Kidds. Sirius fought a bloody battle here, and Capullo left as soon as he said so. Probably in Windsor Bellow's heart, there was a feeling that Sirius was being used. Horn thought that he would probably be indignant as well. As for Capullo, it could be seen from this matter that he was ambitious, and his ambitions weren't small.
Putting aside his personal feelings, Horn had to praise Capullo for choosing to leave the Federation at this time. It was all because Capullo had chosen an excellent time. It was neither too early nor too late, just right.
At this moment, he heard Capullo say, "I've thought about it before, but now that I've seen what happened to the Adahua Planet fleet, I'm even more certain of my guess." The people of Nelm want our main force to stay on Earth and then impose a blockade. Just like you said, once it turns into a tug-of-war, we'll only be worn to death by them if we lose our foreign aid. To go deeper, if Earth's attack and defense were used as a fuse, would this fire burn more and more fiercely? For example, the Kidds attacked again at the interstellar defense line. Another example is Adahua Planet. After transferring a fleet, its military strength has decreased significantly. Will Agares have any ideas about them? "
"In this way, once the situation expands, I'm afraid it will trigger a star war?"
"That's what I'm worried about." Mobius was rarely worried, "So we have to resolve this unfavorable situation as soon as possible. At this time, I hope everyone can let go of their grudges and focus on the overall situation."
Capullo looked at Windsor Bellow, who was still silent, and nodded, "What's your plan, Mr. President?"
"There is one." Mobius cleared his throat and said, "This time, we have to do both. At present, the strongest members of our Federation are the Golden Lion and Sirius." So I would like to ask the two of you to work together. One is to attack the space base of the Nelms and disable their spatial oscillations. Our friendly forces will naturally be able to arrive smoothly. The other army went straight to the landing of the Nelms' Star Destroyer so that they couldn't get away to support the space base. "
"In addition, I would like to ask Mr. Horn to guard this place in case the Nelms attack this base while we are out of combat."
As soon as Mobius finished speaking, Windsor Bellow raised her hat and said coldly, "We, Sirius, are responsible for the attack on the space base. Our fleet is still in outer space confronting the enemy ship. If necessary, we can set off immediately."
"Then leave the operations on the surface to me." Capullo stood up and said, "I'll go back and arrange it immediately. I'll be out by this evening at the latest."
"Thank you, both of you." Mobius said sincerely.
Capullo left. After watching his off-road vehicle leave the camp from the monitor, Mobius exhaled and said, "Marshal Windsor Bellow, you're too impulsive." If it weren't for Mr. Horn, our new base would have been torn down by the two of you. It was fine to dismantle a base, but if Capullo was chased away, it would be very difficult to carry out the plan just now. "To be honest, it's already very difficult for us to maintain the few fronts on the surface. We really can't spare any troops to fight against the enemy's Star Destroyer."
Windsor Bellow spat out a mouthful of turbid air and said in a deep voice, "I know, but I can't help it. I'm willing to be punished."
"What punishment?" Mobius shook his head. "I just hope that Marshal won't act so impulsively again. I'm also indignant. But in this situation, I can only choose to endure and retreat. This is not the time for us to be impulsive. After all, this war is related to the life and death of our race. I hope you can remember this. "
Windsor Bellow nodded, picked up her sniper rifle and said indifferently, "I'll get ready for battle."
After she left, Mobius smiled bitterly, "If I had known that the people of Nelm would play such a trick, I really shouldn't have schemed against you. Speaking of which, if I hadn't personally gone to the surface that night to learn from Mr. Horn's saber, Alan wouldn't have had the chance to replace me. Would it have been a different situation now? "
Horn said indifferently, "It's too late to regret the past, Mr. President. Let's do what's in front of us."
He got up and left.
When Mobius was the only one left in the room, the Federation President said softly, "I will give you a satisfactory explanation after we repel the Nelms. Definitely! "
That evening, the Sirius fleet in outer space began to attack the space frontlines of the Nelms. At the same time, the Golden Lion used all its surface troops to pounce on the landing point of the Nelm Star Destroyer. The battles on both sides started at almost the same time, while Mobius waited silently for the results at the base. To a large extent, the outcome of today's two battles would determine the outcome of the battle. If they won, they might not be able to expel the people of Nelm immediately, but they would be able to win over Adahua Planet's reinforcements and lay the cornerstone of their final victory. If they lost, the Federation would not be able to say that they had suffered a great loss of vitality, but it would be difficult for them to counterattack again.
