Chapter 590 'Ten-pointed Sun' Blanche
While the Federal Central Council was still struggling, an amazing change had already taken place in the Western Star Region.
First, the four surrounding star regions, headed by the Hemu Star Region, formed a group with Blanche as the absolute core. These four star regions supported each other, and with great civilian support and armed force advantages, they flattened the stubborn and conservative factions within the star region and quickly formed a new government agency.
The capital area of the Hemu Star Region, the Xingsui Hall.
This is a place dedicated to grand ceremonies and celebrations in the star region, which can accommodate nearly 200,000 people. The entire sky is covered with a golden dome, and there are constellation patterns on the transparent dome, which is beautiful and magnificent.
At this moment, the entire Xingsui Hall is full of soldiers standing upright. They are divided into different blocks and arranged in rows around the entire venue, like layers of mountains, from inside to outside, from low to high. These soldiers are fully armed, wearing exoskeleton armor and holding guns, like steel.
The only slightly softer setting in the entire venue was the podium built with white curtains in the center and the golden branches and leaves hanging around it.
Time passed by minute by minute. After a few minutes, the stairs slowly rose from the ground in the center, and a woman with long chestnut-gold hair walked out of it. At this point, the solemn sound of waving guns rang out throughout the venue, and then it returned to silence again. Countless eyes watched the woman step up to the high platform step by step.
Standing on the stage, Blanche took a deep breath, closed her eyes slightly, and then opened them, scanning the whole audience. She seemed to see a fiery soul.
"Now is the most critical moment for us to resist oppression and fight for freedom. Are you willing to be loyal to me and fight for the future of the entire Western Star Region!" There was no extra opening speech. She almost used up all her strength to say this sentence. With these words, the invisible spiritual tide spread and impacted the entire venue with her as the center, almost instantly igniting the emotions of the entire venue.
"All glory belongs to you!" The sound of raising hands and saluting rang out in the venue.
Shortly thereafter, these assembled soldiers and military personnel left the venue. They will go to various star regions in the west to support the resistance actions in various places and unify the entire western star region as quickly as possible. There will be more troops like this than today. Every time a star region is liberated and independent, Blanche will unify the local armed forces in the same way.
Whether it is brainwashing or inspiration, it is undeniable that the singer has such a strong ability to unify. In a very short time, she can form a team with extremely high loyalty and willing to sacrifice for her ideals. After breaking away from the constraints of the federal officials, the singer will slowly reveal her true power, and her influence in politics, military and culture will be maximized.
Three days later, the Shark Star Region did not wait for the anti-rebellion forces from the Central Star Region, but welcomed the support of the independent liberation of the Hemu Star Region.
In the East District 1, thousands of heavy shuttles flew by in a staggered manner, and as these shuttles dived, soldiers in gray exoskeleton armor jumped down one by one, and the whole sky was like dumplings, pouring out countless black spots.
In just a few minutes, the entire East District 1 was shrouded in burning flames and artillery fire.
Working closely together, the fearless soldiers rushed into the defense lines of the buildings, and attacked the conservatives hiding in the continuous explosions and bullet storms. Many of these people were powerful senior officials, companies controlled by the Central Star Region, and the current vested interests in the region. Because they had a lot of wealth, they hired a large number of security personnel during the chaos, and also had the support of some local troops, making it difficult for local independence factions to defeat them.
However, with the joining of these troops wearing the "Ten-pointed Sun" logo, the original stalemate was quickly broken. Compared with the conservatives who each clung to their own corners for their own interests, these soldiers and military personnel who launched the attack were obviously more united. They were not afraid of life and death, and often dared to break through the defense line quickly at the cost of a small number of members' sacrifices, and defeated the security personnel who fled in fear.
No matter how nice it sounds, mercenaries are for money after all, and it is impossible to compare with real soldiers. They have no will to devote themselves to their ideals, and they have no courage to fight to the death. As long as the situation is slightly wrong, fleeing to avoid the war is inevitable.
In just half a day, the long-stalemate East District 1 was independently liberated. As the capital district of the local planet, it also gathered the most official institutions and organizations. When the capital district was defeated, the diehards who held on in various places also panicked. They began to look for ways to leave the Shark Star Region and escape to the Central Star Region. At this time, the starports in space had stopped, and the patrol fleets in the galaxy were also fighting each other.
The light brown steel fleet slowly passed by the outside of the inhabited star, and the opposite side was also a fleet of the same color, but from the Hemu star region. The two sides first opened fire with their main guns, and violent jets of light intersected in the starry sky, followed by fighter planes flying out of the sky, spreading like a swarm of bees, spiraling and flying towards the enemy fleet.
Among these rapidly flying fighter planes, black mechas also hid and shuttled among them, relying on the magic fluctuations and signal cover of the fighter planes.
As the main force of space warfare, the battleships have huge power and a long range of central axis main guns, which can often easily destroy and penetrate the starships on the opposite side. However, such main guns take a lot of time to charge and fire each time, and it is difficult to lock on those mechas that are as flexible and tiny as mosquitoes. Therefore, although both are in the same battlefield, it is difficult for them to interfere with each other.
It is difficult for mechas to destroy the huge and solid galaxy battleships, and it is difficult for the main guns of battleships to lock on the overly flexible mechas, so they can only use auxiliary magnetic rail secondary guns to attack these mechas.
Amid the jets and explosions, the patrol fleet guarding the Shark Star Region dispatched its elite mecha units. Like hidden black sharks, they avoided the incoming Hemu Star Region fleet's shooting and kept approaching.
Before the two sides' fighters came into contact, many of them were shot down and exploded by the enemy. Then these fighters staggered rapidly in the air, and dense explosions bloomed in space like fireworks, like a star shower. In just a few seconds, about 12,000 fighters exploded and were damaged, and on each fighter, at least one Sequence 4 pilot died.
The backbone of society in peacetime, the high-sequence extraordinary people envied by many people, died in large numbers and easily in the war, like molten iron poured at random, splashing hot sparks and then cooling quickly.
The number of main battleships of both sides is equal, with about 30 "Brass Dragon" class battleships and more than 100 "Wind Snake" class cruisers each. However, the Hemu Star Region has about 500 "Sky Court" class aircraft carriers and more than 1,000 "Flying Wing" class destroyers, while the Sharp Nose Shark Star Region has only more than 120 "Sky Court" class aircraft carriers and more than 200 "Flying Wing" class destroyers.
The reason why there are many more aircraft carriers and destroyers is that Blanche integrated the armed forces of several star regions near the Hemu Star Region, persuaded the local patrol fleet to surrender, and controlled more fleet forces.
The location of the Sharp Nose Shark Star Region is very critical. It is the bridgehead closest to the Central Star Region in the Western Star Region. If the entire Western Star Region blocks the hyperspace channel of the Aigeka space, then the Central Star Region must occupy this place if it wants to attack. If it goes through the Northern Star Region and the Southern Star Region, it will take extra time and will also cause the central region to be empty.
In space, with the two fleets as the core, space fighters were fighting each other in the sky. Explosions and meteorites were happening every moment. At the same time, the 'Wind Dispersion Field' built with the 'Wind Snake' class cruisers as nodes also enveloped their own fleets. Such a surrounding field can continuously refract and disperse the incoming high-energy particle torrents, just like cutting solidified stone pillars into fine sand. Even if it hits the outer armor of the starship, it will only scrape off a layer but cannot penetrate it directly.
After the force field was built, the many particle torrents shot into it turned into shining nebulae that illuminated the starry sky, which resulted in people living on the dark side of the star still being able to see the sky as bright as day even at night.
In total, more than 40,000 fighters from both sides were constantly annihilated in space, and at this time, the mechas also broke into the enemy starship array. Although the "wind dispersion force field" had a great weakening effect on the long-range bombardment particle torrents, it was not very effective against the mechas' shooting and melee weapons at close range.
In order to stop these elite mechas sent by the Shark Star Region, the fleet of the Hemu Star Region sent out its own mecha troops to stop them, and at the same time, many destroyers also opened the side secondary guns and fired continuously, attacking the approaching mechas.
The dark red laser close-in defense guns kept rotating, illuminating the advancing 'Black Shark-A2' mechas. Some of the mechas began to overheat, but they also began to get close to some destroyers, using the destroyers beside them to resist most of the concentrated fire. If the nearby cruisers used high-powered artillery fire to bombard, it is very likely to penetrate the destroyers as teammates, and they can only use laser cannons with less power and higher accuracy to concentrate fire.
After getting close, these black pointed triangular armored mechas holding high-powered lightsabers inserted into the destroyers beside them. The cylindrical lightsabers about 50 meters long cut and tore, opened the destroyer's shell, and continued to move forward. A large number of internal cabins were thrown out, and as the mechas circled around, the entire destroyer was broken into two pieces and floated in space.
At this point, the cruiser not far away no longer showed mercy. The main gun filled with energy aimed and locked, and then the emerald shining plasma ray pierced through the mecha that was about to escape, penetrated it, and the entire mecha melted in the dazzling plasma, and the wreckage of the destroyer behind was also burned through.
Such scenes occurred everywhere on the battlefield. The mecha troops of the Shark Star Region were obviously more outstanding and elite, while the mecha teams carried by the Hemu Star Region Fleet were not many, and some of them were deployed in ground combat, so they could not be stopped at all. They could only rely on the artillery support of nearby cruisers and destroyers to continuously intercept.
In the core area, 32 "Brass Dragon" class space battleships were arranged in a triangular shape in space. Each of them was about 6 kilometers long, and the huge axis main guns penetrated the entire hull. When it was injected with energy, the space would be slightly distorted and disturbed. Through such a violent influx of magic power and energy, the extraordinary imprints on both sides of the axis of the arrangement condensed into brilliant acceleration pipelines, which continuously compressed and restrained the gathered magic power and converted it into a torrent of particles with extremely strong destructive power and high penetration.
Even the "wind dispersion field" could not completely dispel the powerful axis main gun fire. The hundreds of meters wide particle torrent formed by the diffusion could penetrate anything on the battlefield, whether it was a mecha, a starship, or an enemy battleship, all of which were annihilated and dispersed in this blazing and boiling particle torrent.
Five minutes into the battle, four "Brass Dragon" class battleships of the resident fleet of the Shark Star Region were destroyed, while the attacking Hemu Star Region fleet had five. This was because the Shark Star Region fleet had the home advantage and occupied a better shooting range and perspective at the beginning.
Then there was a brutal exchange. The Shark Star Region's mecha team was indeed elite and destroyed destroyers close to its own number, but in the constant exchange of battles, they were also shot down by the mechas and powerful cruiser main guns sent by the Hemu Star Region.
Half an hour later, the battle entered its final stage. Of the 32 "Brass Dragon" class battleships in the Hemu Star Region, only 12 remained, while the "Brass Class" battleships in the Shark Star Region only had 8. This was because during the battle, dozens of cruisers blocked the main battleships for their own main battleships, in exchange for more battleships to remain.
The difference in the number of main battleships was 50%, which made the resident fleet of the Shark Star Region want to retreat. So the battleship switched the main gun mode, and the original focused penetration mode became a scattered and high-frequency irradiation mode. Such shooting could not penetrate the protection of the "Wind Dispersion Field", but it could burn a large number of enemy fighters on the battlefield and destroyers that left the field protection.
With this gap, the fighters, mechas, and small starships of the Shark Fleet began to retreat and hide on the back of the planet. In response, the Hemu Star Region fleet did not rush to pursue, but rearranged its formation to facilitate protection and concentrate firepower, and then pressed forward step by step.
After that, the fleet stationed in the Shark Star Region avoided the battle all the way, gradually moved away from the battlefield, and finally entered the superluminal navigation state and left the galaxy.
After this battle, the Shark Star Region, which served as a bridgehead, was captured. Although it paid a high price, the loss of the Shark Star Region made the original conservatives in the western star regions panic. This was like closing the door to catch a bird, and it cut off the retreat in the hearts of many people.
At this time, many conservatives with weak wills began to waver and decided to compromise with the independent faction, but asked the other party to guarantee that they would leave safely.
In response, in order to avoid meaningless casualties and damage to the local star region, the independent faction leaders headed by Blanche agreed to the request, allowing these people to disarm and transport the Shark Star Region to leave on their own.
This move was opposed by many radical young people, but because of Blanche's personal prestige, these people finally reluctantly accepted this result. Although it was a bit unsatisfying, the benefit of this move was that a large number of "impurities" in the original Western Star Region left on their own, which greatly reduced the difficulty of uniting the various Western Star Regions in the future. The departure of these people also announced that the last obstacle to the unification of the Western Star Region had disappeared.
The opportunity came slowly. When the 15th Western Star Region gained independence and was incorporated into Blanche's group, the question of thinking about a brand-new political system was placed in front of the people and senior officials of the Western Star Region.
Whether to continue with the federal system, a loose alliance system, or a more centralized national political system, the problem that did not need to be considered before has become more and more urgent. At this moment, many residents of the Western Star Region are silently looking forward to a hopeful and more acceptable future vision. If this vision can meet everyone's expectations and imagination, it can gain great cohesion. On the contrary, if this political model cannot convince most people, the newly established group will face many difficulties, and it will be a problem whether it can continue to exist under the heavy pressure of the federation.
"Do you want to create a new country and become the next Isanissa, or do you want to be like Amyraline and spread the torch of innovation to the entire federation?" The secretary beside the singer asked respectfully.
The singer with long chestnut-gold hair shook her head slowly and looked at the golden field outside the window.
"I am destined not to be such a great person, just a meteor across the night sky."
"Although it is a bit depressed, I am still very happy now and have no regrets. Let future generations judge what will happen in the future."
"Yes, we are waiting for the great 'Ten-pointed Sun' Blanche." As the secretary spoke, the officials and soldiers standing in the entire hall bowed and saluted to pay tribute to the great singer.
