Marco Polo Fortress, this was a military fortress of a superpower in the colony of Area 2 60 years ago.

Later, the country was at war for many years, which led to an empty treasury, a sharp economic decline, and people's living conditions deteriorating, eventually causing the country to fall apart into civil strife.

As their symbol at that time, Marco Polo Fortress was gradually forgotten by others as this superpower fell apart and perished.

The 6th Army Fleet of Dion's 3rd Expeditionary Force used Marco Polo Fortress as their important stronghold.

Why did the Dion Army know about Marco Polo Fortress?

Because when that superpower was falling apart and perishing, many scientists were recruited by the Martian circle.

The Dion Empire also took in some scientists from the Marco Polo Fortress, as well as some members of the design team who were involved at the time.

When Dion's 3rd Expeditionary Force invaded the 2nd Zone Colony, it immediately dispatched the 6th Army to occupy the forgotten Marco Polo Fortress.

The internal structure of the Marco Polo Fortress is exactly the same as the structure in the design drawings submitted by the design teams back then.

The 6th Army began to transform the internal structure of the Marco Polo Fortress.

In addition to the Marco Polo Fortress, there is another important stronghold near a large meteorite fortress of the Gas Empire.

It was also one of the fortresses of the superpower back then, but before it could be completely refitted, the superpower had already split and perished.

This fortress has no name. Some of the builders of the Nameless Fortress at that time fled to the Dion Empire after the country was destroyed.

The 2nd Army of Dion's 3rd Expeditionary Force was also occupying the nameless fortress, but when it was being renovated that year, it was only 20% complete.

The 2nd Army did not undergo much transformation, except for the expansion of some internal buildings, which was to ensure that the 2nd Army could receive basic logistical maintenance guarantees.

But whether it is the Nameless Fortress or the Marco Polo Fortress, they are the main targets of the Tianyi Mercenary Group.

However, in two fortresses, the Tianyi Mercenary Group allowed the Allied Forces to participate in the battle.

Each Tianyi Mercenary Group will send out an army-level fleet, while the combined forces will fight at the scale of an army group.

The coalition forces that attacked the Nameless Fortress were of a large army group size (a total of 6 army-level fleets), mainly organized into units, and the Gas Empire sent 3 army-level fleets.

The Gas Empire will send out three military-level fleets because it has received intelligence from the Tianyi Mercenary Group that the Nameless Fortress is about 500 kilometers away from the border of the Gas Empire.

This made the Gass Empire feel like it was a country that could not tolerate anyone else snoring beside its own bed, so in the matter of attacking the nameless fortress, the Gass Empire seemed to be actively participating, but in fact it was also afraid in its heart.

The army-level fleet of the Tianyi Mercenary Group that attacked the Marco Polo Fortress came from the 1st Army under the 1st Largest Army of the Tianyi Mercenary Group's mother base.

Major General Isis commands the 1st Army of the 1st Group of the Mother Base, which is also the 1st Expedition Army. In addition to the 1st Army, the Shadow Mad Dog Team, the Fierce Hound Team, the Bloodthirsty Wolf Squad and the Sword and Shield Team all participate.

Salamander was the supreme commander of this operation.

The earlier separation tactics were also planned by Salamanda.

In the bow of the Torres 2, Captain Colonel Regina sat on the left of Major General Isis and Lieutenant Colonel Salamander sat on the right of the captain.

Colonel Regina felt extremely stressed. She was transferred to become the captain of the Torres 2 last month, and the identities of the two people beside her were not simple.

Major General Isis is a famous general of the Tianyi Mercenary Group. Although he is not as famous as Lieutenant General Shrek, he is also a famous general who has made countless military achievements in the Tianyi Mercenary Group.

Although Lieutenant Colonel Salamander's military rank was lower than hers, he was the one who planned and commanded countless battles in the campaign against Dion's 3rd Expeditionary Force. As long as the Marco Polo Fortress and the Unnamed Fortress on the other side were captured, Salamander would be promoted two levels immediately.

More importantly, Salamanda is the most popular person beside their boss Long Fei.

Many people in the mercenary group wanted to curry favor with Salamander himself.

Major General Isis asked Salamander, "Lieutenant Colonel, aren't you going to fly your Gundam yourself today?"

"No, if I stay here, I can get the first credit in the first place and command the troops in battle."

The staff sent a report: "The entire fleet of the United Army Group launched a beam attack, and the Marco Polo Fortress launched an anti-beam missile group."

"The anti-beam particles are spreading very densely. All the ships of the Alliance Army are still firing beam cannons. The anti-beam particles are beginning to dissipate under the attack of the beam cannons. All the ships of the Alliance Army are launching guided missiles."

Salamander gave the order: "All warships should launch mobile drill missiles and Minov particle missiles, and mix these missiles into the missiles launched by the coalition forces."

Isis saw through Salamander's tactics and tried to destroy the defense system of Marco Polo Fortress. Minov particles affected or paralyzed the defense devices, communication equipment, etc. of Marco Polo Fortress, thus affecting the combat capability of Marco Polo Fortress.

At this time, Isis asked Salamander a question that was not related to the battlefield at the moment: "Lieutenant Colonel, is there a detail about the prisoners captured by the 3rd Expeditionary Force of Dion?"

"What details?"

"More and more pilots of the Holy Machines captured recently are teenagers. When you and your old comrades escaped from the Martian Sphere, the soldiers of the Dion Army were all teenagers?"

"When I was in the Martian Sphere, the average age of the Dion Army soldiers was roughly around 20 years old. Now I also found from the report that the average age is around 17 years old."

"So, Lieutenant Colonel, do you think the Dion Army will soon be out of soldiers?"

"It's possible. The population of the Martian Sphere was only about 500 million when I left. Even if they have been giving birth to babies desperately in the past few years, they can't make up for the lack of troops in a short period of time."

"Lieutenant Colonel, by the way, half of those prisoners are women."

Salamander glanced at Isis and nodded, saying, "The male to female ratio in the Martian sphere is about 200 million, and the female is about 300 million."

"So, the Dion Empire allows men to marry multiple wives, and lower-class people can also marry two wives as long as their financial conditions allow."

Salamanda half-jokingly said, "If the Dion Kingdom had not started a war, it would be a country that many men dream of, where they would want to marry more wives."

“Tsk.” Isis rolled her eyes.

The staff sent another report: "Our mobile drill missiles destroyed nearly 30% of Marco Polo's defense devices, and Minov particles are almost spreading around the entire Marco Polo Fortress."

"Activate our superconducting communication network, and then bring the entire coalition army into our communication network."

"The coalition forces stopped firing guided missiles."

Because of the Minov particles, the guided missiles of the coalition forces will also become like headless flies, running around uncontrollably in the area of ​​Minov particles.

"The coalition forces launched a general missile swarm to carry out the bombing."

Salamander ordered a halt to the launch of mobile drill missiles and Minov particle missiles.

Generally, the missiles are the traditional ones that can hit whatever they are pointed at, and the missile groups fly towards the target fortress like a barrage of bullets.
