"Boss, we found the wreckage of Night Blade and Night Fighter, but we didn't find the wreckage of Odyssey and Night Shadow." Salamanda reported to Long Fei.
"Keep searching. I don't believe he can escape."
"Yes, boss."
…
Dion's 3rd Expedition in the Meteorite Zone was officially defeated by the Tianyi Mercenaries. Most of the troops were wiped out. The remaining troops (in different locations) saw their eldest prince Odyssey and Night Raid being defeated after their lines were hacked into by the Tianyi Mercenaries' superconducting communication network.
The Dion Army, which had been fighting to the death, lost its will to fight and began to surrender to the Tianyi Mercenary Group one after another.
Among the surrendered prisoners, it was found that some were still very young, some looked only 14 to 15 years old.
This made some careful people realize that the Dion Empire had no soldiers left, and even teenagers of this age were sent to the battlefield.
Xu Jingyun and her brother leaned on the railing to rest and looked at the prisoners.
Xu Chaoge asked his sister, "Sister, if the international countries saw these Dion Army prisoners, would they also think that the Dion Empire has no more soldiers to use, and would they gather troops to attack the Dion Empire?"
"It shouldn't be. The colonial sphere also has no soldiers available. The wars in the past few years have cost them a lot. Unless they also use the reserve forces or even conscript those who are over 18 and under 150 to fight, they will not have extra troops to attack the Dion Empire. Don't forget that the Dion Empire has not yet taken out its destruction warships after such a long time. And don't forget the power of the satellite cannons in the Mars sphere."
"What about the Earth Sphere?"
"It's even more impossible for the Earth Sphere. After all, the Earth Sphere always needs a buffer zone. And to be honest, the Earth Sphere joined this war just to protect itself. In fact, the Earth Sphere gained nothing from this war."
"Sister, I have a different opinion from you. I think the United Army, mainly the Colonial Circle, may want to continue fighting. Of course, it depends on whether the Dion Army will continue to fight with the Tianyi Mercenaries. If the Tianyi Mercenaries can destroy the Dion Army's Destroyer Battleship, the Colonial Circle will feel that there is a chance to fight a war of attrition against the Mars Circle. In this war of attrition, I think they should surround the Mars Circle with many troops and fight a long war of attrition with the Mars Circle."
Xu Jingyun looked at her brother and thought about it, and felt that what her brother said made some sense.
Xu Jingyun thought: "Although Long Fei made a lot of money and profit in this war, he also lost a lot of excellent mercenaries and troops. I guess he doesn't want to fight anymore. But what will the Dion Empire do? What will the Dion 2nd Expeditionary Force, which has occupied almost half of the Wanluo Federation, do?"
Xu Jingyun and her brother watched as all the young captive soldiers were handcuffed, and then, under the instructions of the Tianyi mercenaries, they entered the detention room.
"Sister, the mothership seems to have entered that mango meteorite. Should we go out and take a look?"
"Okay, let's go out and take a look. It's a bit boring to stay here anyway."
…
Inside the Mango Meteorite, the Tianyi Mercenaries were arranging prisoners and searching for all the equipment and information inside the meteorite.
Of course, not only the Mango Meteorite, but all strongholds are the targets of the Tianyi mercenaries' search.
Xu Jingyun discovered that the captives of the Night Killer Knights were all adults, and the youngest was at least 18 years old.
Looking at the members of Long Fei's other direct troops, some were doing their own things, while others were resting.
Xu Jingyun saw the leader of Long Fei's latest direct-affiliated unit, the Angels of Doom, Colonel Pan Zhenhua, a young man in his 60s, who was holding a tablet with a serious expression.
Xu Jingyun remembered that the engine of this unit was a pseudo-solar furnace.
When Xu Jingyun saw this troop, many team members had dejected expressions (the uniforms of the Angels of Doom were the uniforms that Long Fei took from the Celestial Troop).
Xu Chaoge said in his sister's ear: "Sister, I just heard some members of Boss Long Fei's direct troops talking about the Angel of Doom."
"What is it?"
"The Angels of Doom lost more than 600 members in this battle."
Xu Jingyun looked at her brother in surprise.
"Sister, don't look at me like that. This is what I heard from them."
"What about the other direct troops?"
"I heard that the total losses of the other five direct-affiliated units were only about half of the total losses of the Angels of Doom."
Xu Jingyun finally understood why Colonel Pan Zhenhua's expression was so solemn just now.
It would be difficult to explain such a loss to Long Fei.
However, the campaign to wipe out Dion's 3rd Expedition has ended, but I don't know how the official website of the Tianyi Mercenary Group will report this matter.
"I'm a little worried about Christopher now. I wonder if Long Fei will torture him badly." Xu Jingyun thought to herself. She knew very well that Long Fei's bottom line could not be touched. Once any enemy touched it, the sky would fall for his enemy.
At this time, not far away, Long Fei passed by Tao Xiang in an aisle and followed him.
Colonel Pan Zhenhua walked up to Long Fei with a very ugly and solemn look on his face, holding a tablet in his hand and reporting to Long Fei the current situation of the Angel of Doom troops.
After listening to this, Long Fei nodded.
"I'm really sorry, boss. Because of my poor command, many brothers died in battle. All the responsibility lies with me. It's all my fault."
Long Fei raised his hand and said, "Colonel, you are not to blame for this. I underestimated my opponent and thought that the Doom Style would be enough to suppress him. As a result, the performance of the opponent's Knight Holy Machine Ms exceeded my imagination, which caused the brothers to suffer heavy losses. I will arrange for the Doom Style to be replaced with a new generation, and the Doom Style II will be your new standard equipment Ms."
When Pan Zhenhua heard his boss say this, he felt even more ashamed. His boss actually took all the responsibility on himself, which made him, as a subordinate, feel very ashamed. He was unable to share the burden with his boss, yet still let his boss take on the responsibility. Pan Zhenhua felt extremely embarrassed.
Long Fei saw what was in Pan Zhenhua's heart, reached out and patted Pan Zhenhua on the shoulder and said, "Don't take a temporary failure too seriously. The important thing is to win the final victory. If you think that this poor performance is a failure and it is your responsibility, then you should make all preparations for the next battle and achieve a good result. Winning can wash away the shame of your failure this time."
Pan Zhenhua listened to his boss's encouraging words.
"Yes, Boss. I will definitely be prepared. If I disappoint you, I will resign from all my positions and leave the Tianyi Mercenary Group. I will not let the Tianyi Mercenary Group waste food to support a useless person like me."
"Very good, I look forward to your next performance. By the way, this is for you." Long Fei took out a document from his arms and handed it to Pan Zhenhua.
"Boss, what is this?"
"This is your authorization document. You can pick out excellent all-round mercenaries from all bases. The Doom Angels have 1,500 combat members. You just need to pick out this number of all-round mercenaries. Then, make all preparations and wait for the Doom II to be successfully developed. The next performance will depend on you. However, the time you are given may not be long. The next war may not take a year. I think it will happen again in about half a year."
"Yes, I will be ready within half a year."
