Chapter 609 Debate

“Ding ding…”

Before anyone could start talking, the command system's communications lit up.

The communications officer turned around, forcing himself to remain calm. "We've received an urgent order from the outer space command. Alpha has launched a full-scale attack. All Federation bases stationed at Wolfe are to immediately enter S-level combat readiness."

Seeing is one thing, but actually receiving the order is another. Xu Haidi's hand trembled for a moment.

Although Wolf has been in constant war, they basically hide behind the scenes, only responsible for providing weapons and funds, launching proxy wars, with local people at the front, fighting wherever they are directed, and there are basically not too many casualties.

But this time it’s different. Alpha, the only planet that can challenge the Federation on the military level, is serious about it.

Yu Anqi glanced at everyone and decisively picked up the communication: "Prepare for battle immediately!"

His voice echoed over the base, accompanied by the warning whistle of S-level combat readiness.

In fact, even if he didn't say it, the missile hitting the protective net was enough to let the Corps understand everything.

Huo Chuan lay on the ground and suddenly looked up: "She's right!"

He turned to Xiao Feng and said, "You should be grateful to her for still being alive."

Xiao Feng didn't bother to argue with them, still on the phone. Liu Yue rushed to Huo Chuan's side and said, "The situation is not good."

Lin Fancheng also followed: "Fortunately, our bug has passed."

Mo Mo looked at the explosion in the sky and muttered to himself, "I'm afraid the big boss will be too strong and my bug won't be able to defeat him."

Hong Ning turned his head and said, "What are you talking about? What's the bug? We're in S-level combat readiness right now, and we're just new recruits. Aren't you guys panicking?"

Liu Yueban checked his equipment and said, "Brother, let me teach you something."

Hong Ning opened his mouth in shock: "What?"

"As a soldier, how long you can survive actually depends to a large extent on your command."

Hong Ning: ...Why do I get even more panicked when you say that?

Liu Yueban said: "And you have to believe that there are always clouds, and breaking the deadlock is just five words."

Huo Chuan interjected: "That's nothing."

Hong Ning counted on his fingers: "Isn't that six words?"

Bu Yan slapped him on the head and said, "I say, can you think a little more normally? You trust her too much."

Huo Chuan tilted his head: "You don't believe it?"

Bu Yan poked his hat with his gun: "Believe it!" How could he not believe in this great man who could bring the prisoners out from Gugan Star unharmed, and this god who could take away Gawag under the nose of the Federation!

Everyone: ...Then what are you talking about?

The screens in the command room flickered open, the desk slid open, and the hidden command platform rose up, revealing itself to everyone. The noisy sounds of officers rushing around approached from afar, and the room quickly became a wartime command center.

Yun Mo stood behind Luo Mu, looking at the rolling distribution of forces, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

"Tell me about it," Yu Anqi raised his hand and looked at the intelligent computer, reserving himself 30 minutes of strategic deployment time.

Xu Haidi was the first to speak up, speaking righteously: "I suggest that we withdraw our forces, hold our base, and resist Alpha's attack!"

Huh... Yunmo revealed an ambiguous expression.

To put it nicely, Xu Haidi's strategy is to take advantage of the geographical location to hold on and wait for the enemy to tire themselves out.

To put it bluntly, I just don't want to take risks. After all, even without Natasha, there is the coverage of the sky here, which is more than an order of magnitude lower than the aerial threats that fall from time to time outside.

But if we start with the current time and Xu Haidi's strategy, and use Qimen prediction to defend the city...

Yun Mo's eyes twitched slightly. With Tian Qin as the defender, and Tian Peng and Liu Geng as the attackers, there was no auspicious gate in full bloom at this time. If the gate was opened again, Tian Peng and Liu Geng would join the center palace, and the defender would surely die.

At this moment, the light brain flashed, and the signalman passed the message to the command desk.

"Report, our reconnaissance has discovered that a mecha team is heading towards the center, targeting Bari City. There are also two other groups advancing from the north and south..."

Luo Mu quickly clicked on the star map, on which the status of the opponent was marked with arrows and red dots.

"It's obvious they intend to advance through the center and encircle the two state core areas surrounding our base from both flanks. They intend to cut off our connection with Base 003 and then defeat us one by one."

Xu Haidi insisted even more: "Let them come!"

Luo Mu objected: "No, we must not hold on to the death. The enemy is well prepared. Our support is obviously hindered. The pressure in near space is very high. Their goal is clear, which is to seize the planet. Now that they have just landed, it is a good opportunity for us to make arrangements! Only by winning the ground battle can we reduce the pressure in near space."

Yu Anqi pondered, but he had another layer of worry.

Because Wolf originally belonged to Alpha. They were originally of the same origin, but due to the civil unrest and disintegration in history, he became independent, and then belonged to Thalia, and then joined the Federation camp...

One of the important reasons why the Federation did not completely take Wolfe under its wing was antimatter.

Antimatter has enormous energy. The energy released by 1 gram is almost equivalent to that of two nuclear bombs, enough to raze an ordinary city to the ground.

However, antimatter annihilates upon contact with matter, making its extraction expensive and storage difficult, a topic that has always been elusive. Theoretically, producing just one gram of antimatter would cost approximately 60 trillion federal coins...

However, many years ago, Alpha Centauri successfully used the special geological characteristics of Wolf to construct a vacuum and low-temperature "magnetic field" trap at different locations in its mantle, which could maintain the existence of antimatter.

No one knows how many there are or how many are left. All they know is that this set of magnetic field traps can provide super strong protection at critical moments, or be transformed into a weapon of mass destruction to destroy towns.

As far as we know, there are six activation switches for this super-strong defense system, which must be pressed simultaneously to take effect, and one of them has always remained in the hands of the Alpha people.

The Federation had thought about clearing out Wolf's antimatter, but they hid it too well and were unsuccessful.

And staying on top of these things is like sleeping with a time bomb.

This was also the reason why the Federation had to settle for the second best and acquiesce to Wolfe's chaos. Because the six buttons were scattered among the conflicting forces, they were a layer of protection for them.

But Alpha is different, no one knows what cards they have.

If they dared to take the risk of landing on this planet, as expected, they should be here with the purpose of restarting the ultimate defense.

Once it is truly restarted, destroying the base is one thing, but the possibility of the Federation taking it back is almost gone.

Strategy is the general direction, and tactics are the specific arrangements based on strategy. The command room was in an uproar, with Xu Haidi and Luo Mu each holding their own, neither willing to give in.

"Okay," Yu Anqi interrupted them.

"Colonel Yu..." Xu Haidi wanted to say something else.

Yu Anqi rubbed his brows. "Did you see that? Their landing point is clear, their attack range is well-defined, they've already taken over a lot of territory, and they've even stationed themselves at the government base..."

"We can hold our ground and wait for help. The military strength in the East Mali war zone is not weak, and the troops stationed near the federation can come here in a short time," Xu Haidi insisted.

Luo Mu sneered: "So, Colonel Xu's strategy is to sit back and wait for his colleagues to die in order to rescue you?"

Xu Haidi's face darkened: "Colonel Luo, you'd better be polite when you speak. Don't think you are a big shot."

Luo Mu slammed the table: "I really am a big shot!"

Xu Haidi stood up and glared at him. "Then go ahead. A strategy must be both offensive and defensive. You're good at attacking and I'm good at defending. There's no contradiction between us."
