The Airansil Empire deployed more than 2 million troops on Higgs 5. Most of these troops were transported to the surface of the planet before the war.
It is obviously impossible to defend a planet with these troops, so these troops basically stick to the circular defense position near the Tree of Life.
Such a deployment basically gives up most of the land on the planet, so the Watcher troops can land calmly and deploy their own forces on Higgs 5.
Of course, although the tactical layout of the Airansil Empire allowed the Watchers to deploy their troops calmly, the facts proved that those abandoned places were all big holes dug by the Airansil Empire.
The intercontinental ballistic missiles of the Elanshir Empire carried nuclear warheads and wiped out millions of Watcher troops in these abandoned areas, severely weakening the combat effectiveness of the Watcher troops.
In the next five days, the two sides went back and forth and fought many large-scale battles. In most of the battles, the Elanshir Empire was defending, while the Watcher troops were almost always attacking.
This is also the reason why General Andrei has too few troops. He does not have enough troops to squander, so he can only economize his troops as much as possible and use fortifications to consume his opponents as much as possible.
After suddenly hitting the guard with a counterattack, Andre also discovered that attacking was not a good option for the defensive troops in his hands.
The attack was a waste of fuel and ammunition. After a short attack, his ammunition reserve was already under considerable pressure. After organizing a few more times, he felt that the ammunition in his hand might not be enough for subsequent defense needs.
What made him even more fearful of his opponent was that the main armored division composed of two clones in his hand was almost disabled. Such losses also made Andre less interested in continuing to counterattack.
This morning was an ordinary yet unusual morning for the Elanshir Empire's garrison troops stationed on the planet Higgs 5.
Andre was woken up by his alarm clock in the morning. It was rare for him to maintain a good sleep, and he slept well every day in the past two days.
The main reason that allowed him to rest at ease was that the scale of attacks by the Watchers at night was not large. It seemed that the Watchers were also reserving troops to prepare for stronger attacks.
As the commander of the front line of the Eilanhir Empire, Andre kept a neat appearance. He shaved, tidied his military uniform in front of the mirror, and then walked out of his room.
The lights in the basement are very bright, and even give people the illusion that there is a lot of light here. Because the entire underground fortification is actually not short of electricity, the fusion reactor of the Eilanhill Empire can provide almost unlimited power very stably.
"Good morning! Sir!" Seeing Andre come out, the guard at the door stood at attention and saluted, holding his chin high and saying, "Long live Ailan Hill!"
"Long live Ailanthir!" Andre returned a military salute, and then took last night's battle report from the adjutant waiting at the door.
"Two more positions were lost. The enemy invaded the low bunker over there from the ground, and a fierce melee broke out between the two sides." Andre frowned and looked at the adjutant: "The other party dug a hole?"
"Good morning, General! You look good." The adjutant greeted him as usual.
Then he continued to answer: "Yes, but they were heard by our listening equipment when they were digging holes, so when the other party rushed into the underground bunker, our troops were ready for battle."
Andre nodded slightly and asked again: "It seems that the enemy can find our underground bunkers and defenses, so we must pay attention to safety in this area... Also, do you know the farthest digging distance of the opponent?"
"About 40 meters. Although the other party can dig, they didn't find any professional equipment, so the digging distance is not that far." The adjutant continued to answer.
Andre breathed a sigh of relief and continued to instruct: "Don't be careless! Let people keep an eye on the listening equipment in turns! If there is a problem, respond immediately!"
"Understood! General!" The adjutant stood at attention and saluted, then asked: "So, what do you want for breakfast?"
"Big-toothed rabbit bacon, sesame cakes, soy milk...and some cold vegetables." Andre thought for a moment, then told the adjutant: "Send it to the map room, I'll eat there."
"No problem, General!" The adjutant went to the kitchen with the order. At least for now, all the troops stationed on the planet Higgs 5 do not have to worry about their logistical supplies.
Stationed within a solid defense line, there are even underground rails and trains responsible for transporting ammunition, food and medicine to all the outer main defenses.
Because they have been hoarded for too long, the supplies here can really be said to be piled up - every soldier has a very rich variety of food rations, and an astonishing amount of rations.
Naturally, it is impossible to distribute food like instant noodles to soldiers at this time. Now most soldiers within the defense line can have three hearty meals.
All are hot foods, including meat, chocolate-dried meat, and even fat house happy water. But on the other hand, the strategic reserves in the Higgs 5 area are very simple, which is also determined by the type of troops.
When clones are created, they have been genetically and consciously optimized! They do not smoke or drink, and whenever they have the opportunity, they will hibernate and restore their physical strength to maintain combat capabilities.
It can be said that these clones are perfect soldiers, the elites that all generals dream of!
Therefore, among the supplies stockpiled by Higgs 5, there are very few cigarettes and alcohol - it is not completely absent, it is just that they were previously prepared for non-cloning officers and technicians, and no one needs them now.
As for an officer like Andre, his rations can be described as luxurious. He has his own chef. Although his skills may not be very good, the materials are indeed complete.
Here he can eat the delicacies of his hometown, and also enjoy the characteristics of many local restaurants, and even many of the ingredients are fresh and live... As for whether the taste of these dishes is authentic, only God knows.
When Andrei saw in the map room the positions lost last night and the reports on the measures taken to seal the gaps, the chef brought him breakfast.
Ten minutes later, to his surprise, the reinforcements that he thought were impossible to come to him miraculously arrived!
"Corporal! You... are you the cook?" After taking a bite of the rabbit meat sent by the chef, Andre wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin and looked at the chef and asked.
"Yes, sir!" The chef immediately raised his chin and replied with a standard posture.
For almost a week, Andre had been eating the meals he cooked, but because of the busy war and other reasons, this was the first time Andre had a conversation with the chef.
The other party seemed very reserved, but Andre still felt that he should communicate with the chef: he felt that the other party's craftsmanship was good and the food suited his taste.
Because the other party's food was well prepared, Andre guessed that the other party was a professional chef, so he asked.
The reason why he used the word "original" was because he knew that the people who stayed here were clones. There might be dozens or even hundreds of these clone soldiers serving in other armies.
Since qualified soldiers can be cloned, skilled cooks can also be cloned. Therefore, the quality of meals for the Airanshir Empire troops has improved since the introduction of clones.
The previously mediocre food immediately became delicious, which also improved the morale of the soldiers in every detail.
"What now?" Andre continued to ask curiously.
"I am a corporal in the security company, sir! In fact, what I am most proficient in is machine gun shooting and gun maintenance." The noncommissioned officer, who was still wearing a white apron, answered Andre's question seriously.
Andre nodded and did not continue to ask questions, so the chef left the room after saluting.
Looking at the map, Andre used chopsticks to stuff the green vegetables on the plate into his mouth, feeling the comfort of the oyster sauce stimulating his taste buds.
Food is a pursuit for those who like it. Being able to enjoy beautiful taste will make people feel happy.
"Sir!" At this moment, the adjutant hurriedly walked in, stood at attention and saluted Andre and said: "In order to cover the reinforcements, the 1st Fleet began to counterattack."
Andre, who was eating, was stunned for a moment, then reached out and grabbed the remote control next to the map table, and turned on the monitor on the wall.
In the monitor, countless warships from the First Space Fleet of the Airansil Empire were lined up along the other side of the planet Higgs 5, engaging in fierce exchanges of fire with the Watcher fleet.
The fleet of the Airanthil Empire did not seem to want to regain control of the space near the planet Higgs 5. They just got as close to the Higgs 5 as possible and attacked the Watcher warships that blocked their progress.
Line of defense.
The battle between the two sides was very fierce, and then the central part of the Airanthil Empire's 1st Space Fleet began to advance forward, breaking through the guardian's defense line and opening up the communication channel with Higgs 5.
Subsequently, a large-scale transport fleet began to drop re-entry modules carrying reinforcements to the Higgs 5 area.
"Marshal Lawns doesn't seem to have abandoned us yet." The adjutant with the QR code printed on his forehead showed a smile. He didn't know whether he was really happy or just chose an expression that was not embarrassing.
"..." Andre didn't speak. He just stared at the screen and saw the re-entry module of the Airan Hill Empire's landing reinforcements falling into the atmosphere of Higgs 5 like a meteor shower.
After orbital calculations, at least most of these re-entry modules will fall into the control area of the Elanshir Empire's garrison force. Because of the use of the latest recoil modules, they will not destroy the defense facilities on the ground.
"This time the reinforcements include 14 armored divisions, 36 elite clone divisions, and 100 puppet robot divisions..." The adjutant read the message sent by the fleet, and his voice began to drift little by little.
He rubbed his eyes, looked at General Andre who was sitting there without saying a word, and looked at the message in his hand again.
He couldn't believe his eyes, or he couldn't believe the contents of this telegram.
Previously, the garrison force left by the Airansil Empire on the planet Higgs 5 was only 2 million strong.
And this time, the total number of 100 fully reinforced puppet robot masters has exceeded 3 million!
If 50 elite clone divisions are added, the number of combat troops reinforced this time exceeds 4.5 million! This is more than the troops stationed on Higgs 5 before.
As a clone, the adjutant naturally knew that he had never saved the world, so he looked at Andre.
In his opinion, the general who sat in front of him without speaking a word might be the next marshal of the empire - otherwise, he must have saved the world in his previous life...
Being able to allow the empire to reinforce 4.5 million troops in one fell swoop is something everyone should be happy about no matter how you look at it.
The adjutant standing here even had the ambition to fight back at a certain moment and annihilate all enemies on the surface of the planet in one go.
Suppressing his slightly excited mood, he coughed and started reading the telegram again - it was not that he had forgotten where he had read, he just wanted to read it again to make his mood brighter.
Just listen to him reading word by word: "This reinforcement includes 14 armored divisions, 36 elite clone divisions, and 100 puppet robot divisions! In addition, it also includes ammunition for these troops to operate independently for 3 months, 1
A monthly supply of rations, as well as maintenance spare parts for 1 million sets of robots and corresponding magic crystal energy!"
This level of supplies is simply astonishing, because in terms of quantity, it is almost equivalent to transporting a planet's garrison in one go!
It is rare for even the Airanhill Empire to transport so many troops at one time! From here, we can also see how huge the scale of the Airanhill Empire's front-of-line supplies is.
"It's really exciting news..." Andre said in a dry voice without looking up, swallowing a piece of sesame cake chewed in his mouth.
"Sir..." The adjutant was stunned for a moment, and he wanted to say something. However, his words were interrupted by Andre reaching out: he stretched out his hand, waved to the adjutant, and motioned for the adjutant to go out first. But when the adjutant closed the door,
After opening the door, he still sat there motionless.
After a while, he stretched out his hand, wiped the corners of his eyes twice, and adjusted his sitting posture: "Your Majesty, you treat me with the courtesy of a national soldier, and I will repay the favor with the ability of a national soldier... I will definitely make good use of these soldiers to wipe out the empire.
