Mecha and Knife

Chapter 477 The Figure of the Emperor

Whoever is missing in this world, the sun will rise as usual.

Therefore, Kentweiss thinks that Ji Xinghe, an old man who can fight, is not irreplaceable, and there is actually some reason.

Therefore, Ji Xinghe also has reason to believe that Kentweiss, the spokesperson of the top organization that hindered his revenge, can be completely replaced.

The difference between the two, or the difference between the two federal generals, is that one is just a general, and the other is a general at the same time as an ordinary man.

"You don't know anything, you only know how to fight and kill."

"I know everything, and I can fight and kill."

No one knew that Kentweiss and Ji Xinghe had a conversation through the air.

They don't know it themselves, but these two sentences of dialogue are of great significance, very meaningful to the two of them, and also of great significance to the Federation and this war.

No one is irreplaceable, and that is true for the Federation.

But some people have the ability to let others be replaced.

No orangutan is irreplaceable, and the same is true for the Empire.

But some orangutans have the ability to replace other orangutans.

For example, Adakon.

When the news of Yinan's death in the No. 5 base theater reached the command center of the empire's transition base in the Battle Scar Canyon, there was no sound of wailing or crying.

Instead, many orangutans became excited.

One radish is one hole, if one radish is missing, there will be one more hole, let alone a lot of radishes are missing this time?

Including the general Yinan, the empire originally had five dukes in the Battle Scar Canyon.

Three of them took 1,500 mechas to encircle and suppress the Independence Regiment this morning, only to be killed by the Independence Regiment.

One of them was killed by Andre using the power of technology during the encirclement and suppression operations.

The remaining two managed to escape the counter-chasing of the independent regiment, but were brought to the No. 5 base theater by Yinan, where Ji Xinghe and Han Li killed one each.

It can be said that they escaped the morning, but not the afternoon.

So far, only Dongguo Cilian, who was in charge of chasing and killing Kaidilin, remained among the Dukes of the Empire in the Battle Scar Canyon.

It didn't matter if it couldn't attack for a long time, and chose to escape first when the imperial mecha had the advantage at that time.

This made Yinan, who was still alive at the time, very angry, and in order to save more mechas, Aida Kang made a deal.

It's just that the accident happened too fast, so Dongguo Cilian's mecha, as well as its subordinates, the Marquis and the Earl, have not yet been taken down by Aida Kang on the grounds of delaying the military plane and being passive.

Therefore, the Duke Dongguo Cilian temporarily became the empire's general in the Battle Scar Canyon.

It itself has the same authority as a federal general, and this temporary taking over of important tasks is also in line with the relevant rules and regulations of the empire.

"I finally became a great general, hahaha..."

Dongguo Cilian didn't feel sad because of Yinan's death, nor did she feel any fear.

If Yinan had died in the Battle Scar Canyon, it would definitely be terrified now, but Yinan was taken to the theater of the fifth base by Aidakang, so it can be said that he died under Aidakang's hands.

What does that have to do with it?

If the emperor of the empire were to pursue responsibility, Aidakang would be number one, and Yinan himself would be number two. It would certainly not be responsible if it had no power to prevent Aidakang and Yinan from going to the No. 5 base theater.

On the contrary, there is an opportunity to save the building from falling, and this opportunity represents the credit for making it truly a general.

"Ji Xinghe is not here, call me."

After Dongguo Cilian issued the order, it was not actually carried out, because Aidakang also issued an order to suspend their attack.

From Dongguo Cilian's point of view, this is Aida Kang preventing it from getting more credit.

"Adacon has been defeated many times. The surprise attack on the Federation's No. 5 base failed. It lost a jump gate, more than 500 mechas, and six Dukes.

The second assault on Federation Base No. 5 cost more than 2,000 mechs, six space battleships, half a million troops, and five dukes.

The third surprise attack on Federation Base No. 5 resulted in the death of Yinan, two dukes, and five marquises..."

Thinking back to Adakon's repeated battles and defeats, all of them were related to the No. 5 base theater. To put it more directly, they were all related to Ji Xinghe.

Dongguo Cilian even wanted to take advantage of Ji Xinghe's absence to launch an advance campaign against the western theater as before without Ji Xinghe and independent regiments.

"Aidakang didn't let me fight. It must be to take advantage of Yinan's death and take the command. He also took advantage of the Yueyue Gate to annihilate all the living forces in the western theater before Ji Xinghe came back to support him, and made up for it. loss and guilt."

Thinking of this, Dongguo Cilian was very angry.

But it couldn't refuse to execute Adacon's order, so it participated in Adacon's book while preparing for a full-scale attack.

The military system of the Empire is different from that of the Federation, and slightly different from any period in the history of the states of the Federation.

In real comparison, it is somewhat like the military system of Longzhou during the slavery period more than 2,000 years ago: it adapts to the political system centered on kingship, and the king is the supreme military commander. Listen to the call of the king.

But now, nearly three hundred years after the founding of the empire, the princes of the empire, including the princes, have lost the right to form an army in the true sense.

This is because as the empire unified the empire star, the development of science and technology including communications, transportation, and weapons made it easier for the imperial power of the empire to manage the entire planet.

Strong branches and weak stems turn into strong trunks and weak branches.

The royal army has been continuously developed and has become the most powerful standing army in the empire. There is no chance for the princes to fight each other. Keeping a private army will not only increase the loss, but also cause dissatisfaction with the emperor, and all kinds of shoes are worn.

Therefore, the nobles who nominally have the power to form an army can only disband a large number of private troops and form a quality-oriented personal guard.

But the nobles of the empire still have the right to recruit troops from their fiefs during wartime, and take the troops they form to fight based on the emperor's order.

Recruitment rather than formation means that these recruited troops are also the emperor's army, and must be based on the emperor's order, not the private army of the great nobles.

The Empire and the Federation have fought wars on alien planets for more than 20 years, and most of the regular troops killed and wounded came from private troops recruited by the nobles.

This makes the phenomenon of the strong and weak branches of the empire even more serious, which is basically consistent with the internal contradictions of the empire analyzed by Liu Mian, Davis and many others.

Under such preconditions, it is very normal for the empire to have a supervising army under the emperor's order among the armies of the empire fighting on alien planets.

Including Aida Kang, the prince and general, there is also the existence of the supervising army.

They have no aristocratic status, and they have little fighting power, because they are all monkeys and not orangutans.

But their powers are very large, and they can be described as up to the sky in the empire.

In the empire, there are quite a few monkeys like this. They constitute the civil service system of the empire. Although almost none of them have the status of nobles, the authority brought by the official position is greater than that of many orangutan nobles.

But generally speaking, in an empire that advocates force and has wars, the power of the civil servant group is far lower than that of the generals group.

Among other things, the system of no knighthood without military exploits is obviously restricting the monkeys.

The orangutans in the empire will never forget that three hundred years ago, the monkeys with relatively higher intelligence were the real masters of the empire planet, and more than half of the orangutans were slaves of the monkeys.

No matter how strong your physical fitness is, so what if you can fight?

Even in the era of cold weapons, it does not mean that war is to kill each other with cold weapons. Swords and armors all require technology to be built, and the same is true for bows and arrows, catapults, etc.

Intelligent monkeys can form an army with more powerful weapons, and they can also master resources that can feed more troops through farming, primitive commerce, etc. behaviors.

The era when this kind of monkey was superior to orangutans, the emperor known as Wudi I ended with the status of orangutans.

The power of the gift can not only make the orangutans more powerful in combat, but in the era of cold weapons, it is equivalent to turning into an orangutan-shaped mech, which can easily turn on the unparalleled killing mode on the battlefield.

It can also make them have higher intelligence.

After the empire was established, Emperor Wudi opened up the wisdom of the orangutans through running a school. Although the orangutans are still inferior to the monkeys in terms of sophistication, it will not allow the monkeys to gain an absolute advantage in wisdom again.

It is precisely because of this that orangutans have been restricting monkeys.

Of course, there are no absolutes in everything. A monkey like the president of the Imperial Academy of Sciences has won a title because of his scientific research.

But this is extremely rare.

So the contradictions in the empire are not only between the royal family and the nobles, between the old and the new nobles, but also between the orangutans and the monkeys.

Dong Guo Cilian looked at the monkey standing in front of him, and asked in a very contagious tone: "Do you want to be a general for a day, or a staff member for a lifetime?"

This monkey not only has the status of supervising the army, but also the status of a staff member.

The Empire's staff is equivalent to the Federation's staff, but its authority is far lower than that of the Federation's staff. After all, the Federation's staff can have real command power, even if it is not the chief of staff.

The monkey, who was only 1.5 meters tall, looked up at Dong Guo Cilian, who was over 2 meters tall, and asked, "Do you want to join the war?"

"Yes." Dongguo Cilian didn't hide it: "Not only I want to participate in the war, but all the marquis and earls under my command will also participate in the war. There are also all the marquis and earls left by Yinan and the others. So, as long as Ai If Dakang doesn't come, or it can't get the command, you will have a chance to be a general for a day."

It has four marquises and twenty-three earls under it, each of which is in charge of a large number of troops.

The military ranks of the empire are actually similar to those of the federation. There are eight levels from top to bottom. After translation, they can be called military divisions, brigades, regiments, battalions, companies, squads, and a long word.

But the empire has no ranks, only titles.

In other words, the military rank of the empire is a title.

The general in Yinan is not a military rank, but a military position. Judging from the number of troops he was in charge of and the importance of the theater, he is equivalent to the three-star general of Kentweiss, the federation.

But because of the title of duke, its importance is on the bright side, far surpassing that of Kentweiss.

A duke who does not have the military rank of a general usually has the military rank of a general, which is equivalent to a lieutenant general with real power like Tu Yuan. Under normal circumstances, he can be in charge of multiple armies, each of which has a strength of about 100,000.

The marquis can be in charge of an army group, and the earl is in charge of the command sequence.

Of course, there are also some earls with strong backgrounds and outstanding military exploits who can take charge of an army alone.

Such imperial earls either have a good father and a legitimate son, or are generals who are expected to be promoted to marquis or duke. And such an Earl of the Empire, who was only driving Ji Xinghe, who was driving the modified model of the 16th generation mecha of the Federation, helped Jackson kill one. Got a better mech.

In the past seven days in the western theater, almost all of the 500,000 troops that have been wiped out are under the control of the dead dukes, marquises, and earls. This is why Yinan will take them directly to the No. 5 base theater reason.

Some of the forces under their control are now fighting with Rovich and the others in the eastern theater.

Because there is no support from the aristocratic mechs, the eastern theater is also constantly winning.

The three major armies of the empire that have now entered the frontline battle zone in the western theater are all soldiers of Dong Guo Cilian.

When it wants to win a decisive victory, it must personally lead its nobles to drive the mechs to participate in the battle, and use the mechas' ability to break the formation to bring advantages to the empire's long-range firepower and conventional troops.

The Duke, Marquis, and Earl have all joined the battle, so who will be in charge of the command center?

Viscount can't.

Although he has a title, his authority is far inferior to the monkey who is looking up at Dongguo Cilian.

Moreover, if this battle can be won, it will have the opportunity to obtain the title of knighthood for its military exploits. This is an irresistible offer for the monkeys of the empire.

As an aide, it is very familiar with the current war in the western theater. The independent regiment is indeed very powerful, but without Ji Xinghe, the great noble mechs owned by the western theater have every chance to wipe out the already damaged independent regiment. group.

Without the independent regiment, the Mech Corps in the western theater would not be their opponents at all.

"Hurry up, Aida Kang will be here soon."

Dongguo Cilian urged her, and said nothing more, she was convinced that this monkey, which was theoretically smarter than it, could see better than it.

The monkey made his decision and came to an area of ​​the command center.

"Activate the jump communication device."

Orangutans, monkeys, and all kinds of war weapons can use leap technology to cross the star sea, let alone communication signals?

This kind of technology has only been completed in recent years. Otherwise, every communication with the Empire Star needs to open the jump gate to be able to proceed. It is a waste of resources when it is uncertain whether to increase troops or increase supplies. Huge waste.

The miniaturized jump gate device cannot connect alien stars and empire stars. The resources required to start a large jump gate device are too large, and the cost of a large jump gate is not only extremely high, but the number of times it can be used is also limited.

Otherwise, how could the empire only have two large leap gate devices in Alien Planet?

The communication was quickly established successfully.

A battle report that had been prepared long ago and was updated in real time was sent back to the Empire Star by the monkey. The main content was today's battle situation.

The orangutans and monkeys at the Imperial Star Army were shocked when they saw this battle report.

In less than a day, more than 200,000 troops and more than 4,000 mechas were lost, and Yinan was dead, and there were three dukes?

Marquis, Earl, etc. are not worth mentioning to the orangutans and monkeys in the Imperial Military Aircraft Department, but they cannot ignore the Duke's death in battle.

From the point of view of title, the orangutans in the Military Aircraft Department are nothing more than dukes. Although the monkeys in the Military Aircraft Department are high-ranking and powerful, they can be described as extremely gorilla ministers, but when they see the Duke, they have to salute first, because they have only a few. Valuable viscount and baron status, the fief is still near the capital.

Moreover, there are only more than two hundred dukes in the entire empire. Four of them died in one day, and there was a grand duke like Yinan, so if we fight for a few more days, won't we die?

Do these dukes who can sit in the military plane also go to the battlefield?

"We need to meet His Majesty, because General Yinan died, and Prince Aidakang and Ji Xinghe were involved."

"kindness."

This is a big matter, and the Military Aircraft Department, which is in charge of all the military forces of the empire in name for the emperor, cannot make a decision.

So they made a video call to the Emperor.

It is worth mentioning that they do not have holographic projection technology, and the video communication looks similar to the level of the Federation around 2022.

From this point of view, the technological development of the Empire is more deformed than that of the Federation. But it is also easy to understand that when the emperor and the nobles do not need this technology, they will not invest more resources in research.

The empire also lags behind the Federation's technology, as well as medical treatment. They have the power of Qi, which can be described as invulnerable to all diseases. Even if they are sick or injured, they can use the power of Qi to treat them. Naturally, there is no need to vigorously develop them. What medical technology.

As for the civilians and slaves who don't have the power of Qi, and don't have the resources to borrow the power of Qi to heal...

What does it have to do with the great nobles?

The communication was successfully established, and the ministers of the Military Aircraft Department bowed to salute, they did not need to kneel down.

A majestic voice sounded.

"explain."

"yes."

The situation was quickly explained. During the explanation, the ministers raised their heads one after another and saw the figure of His Majesty the Emperor whom they had not seen for a long time.

Yes, they haven't seen their emperor in person for a long time, and the emperor of the empire used video communication to participate in the daily court meeting and the grand court meeting.

Compared with the Chaohui and Dachaohui, they can clearly see the appearance of their emperor, similar to the communication in this situation, they can't see the emperor in a dark environment clearly.

Only a hazy twilight illuminated the emperor's upper body.

It looked like it was in the cockpit of a mech.

This made the ministers very puzzled. As the emperor of the empire, he has incredible personal force, controls the most powerful regular army in the empire, and has nuclear weapons, etc...

Is it necessary to stay in the mech every day?

What is the significance of a mecha that can be dismantled with bare hands to the emperor? Even if it is the most advanced and powerful emperor armor in the world, it uses the holy crystal as the energy drive.

But no chimpanzee dared to ask, and neither did monkeys.

After listening to the urgent military situation, the emperor did not express his attitude, but asked softly, "What do you think?"

Although it was a soft tone and a video communication, it still gave the ministers an extremely majestic feeling.

They all know that it is the accumulation effect brought about by the most powerful gift power in the world.

Under such majesty, some orangutans dared to speak out.

"We believe that we should give up capturing Ji Xinghe alive and aim to kill him."

us?

The other orangutans and monkeys are angry, who is with you or us.

It is related to the emperor's previous order, no joke.

Immediately, the orangutan retorted.

"Your Majesty, although we suffered a great loss today, it is precisely because of this that we have a greater chance of capturing Ji Xinghe alive..."
