The endless space.
One side of the earth-moon system universe,
The backbone fleet squadron, consisting of a thousand warships of various types, set up a formation, waiting for the prey to appear.
Among the flagships commanding this fleet, as the commander of the squadron, Bulitai is thinking about the next action.
In fact, he had some doubts about this action order.
Ever since the satellite factory in the asteroid belt was discovered and destroyed by the Metlantic fleet that suddenly appeared nearby, Bulitai began to prepare for a possible war with the Metlantic fleet.
However, as more and more information came out about the Metlanti fleet, another piece of information made Bullita even more confused.
The miniature man's battleship was actually able to make some Gerati soldiers and even higher-ranking officers switch sides, betraying the main fleet and becoming a member of the other side.
In order to understand this battleship, Bulitai tried his best, but couldn't get it right.
Finally, he handed over his doubts to his deputy, Squadron Staff Officer Essekidolu.
Faced with the problem assigned to him by the squadron commander, this staff officer tried his best to think about the truth of what happened.
What factors could make many Gerati soldiers defect to the other side's camp without hesitation?
Even if, judging from the apparent strength, the miniature man's warship is just a mere one, a weak camp that cannot be any weaker.
The base fleet only needs to use a little force to destroy it.
Just like, at present, this squadron consists of a thousand warships of various types.
no doubt.
Whether it was based on the staff's point of view or in the eyes of Gerardi's soldiers, the miniature human battleship was nothing more than a fleeting spark.
"commander."
Esekidolu, who had been thinking for a long time, slowly spoke.
Bulitai was not in a hurry and kept quiet, waiting for his advisor who had been his partner for countless years.
"According to the information left to us by primitive civilization, we absolutely cannot have a war with miniature people."
"But we have given the miniature people's home planet to..."
Bulitai was stunned and said subconsciously.
"Well, that's the problem. Why do we want to fight against the miniature people? Why is the backbone fleet to which we belong so anxious to destroy the last descendants of the miniature people?"
Essekidolu asked several questions.
But he knew that the commander he followed would not give any answers.
After all, even he himself could not come up with more precise answers to these questions.
As he expected, Bulitai did not answer, but quietly waited for his question and answer.
"Commander, our soldiers collected some things from the ruins on the earth and near the route passed by the miniature human battleship."
Essekidoru moved his hands and activated a certain device.
A projection screen appeared in front of the two people.
That was exactly the picture of a group of Gerardi soldiers with live ammunition carefully inspecting some objects placed on the table.
Normally, Bulitai would have claimed with great pride that this was the most outstanding Gerati soldier in the base fleet he led.
But the gesture shown on the screen in front of him was so... terrifying.
This word is very unfamiliar.
From the moment the Geraldi soldiers are born, they will not know what fear is and will only fight on the battlefield until the last moment.
But the performance on the screen is so unbearable.
"After experimental comparison, it is not the items belonging to the miniature humans or other things that have affected our Gerati soldiers."
Essekidolu amplified the sound in the picture, and a soft singing sound followed.
During this burst of singing, Bulitai actually felt a strange impulse surge in his chest.
"This, what exactly is this?!"
"What affects us is not the objects, let alone other things used by the miniature people, but the songs from the miniature people."
Esekidolu slowly expressed his guess.
"I have randomly checked many soldiers who showed signs of fear. Among them, almost all of them will have a strange emotion called "fear" after hearing the songs from the miniature people. For us,
It’s a very unfamiliar emotion.”
"singing?"
Bullita was silent.
Calculated according to the era of human history, Bulitai's life lasted at least an extremely long time.
What such long years have brought to Bulitai is not something worth remembering, but the profound memories brought about by the wars one after another, which are like endless wars.
Apart from fighting, are there any memories affected by "singing"?
Bulitai wanted to deny the speculation of his right-hand man, Essekidolu, but he had a vague feeling that what his right-hand man said was very likely to be true.
"So, let's verify it?"
The staff officer was silent.
He knew that the verification that Bulitai said was to conduct the battle in the most direct and straightforward way.
Use battle to test the true nature of miniature people.
If the other party can really have a song that affects Geraghty's soldiers, then this war may have been a mistake from the beginning.
"As you command! Commander."
Essekidolu issued an order, and the Gerati squadron led by Bulitai was ready to go.
That unabashed attitude had already been discovered by Hawkeye 1 and 2 who were out for reconnaissance.
The moment the emergency information was transmitted to SDF-1, everyone immediately entered a first-level combat state.
"Captain Grobar. The squadron blocking the front is probably the squadron commanded by Bulitai."
After receiving the same information, Richard Birla proactively provided the information he knew and his opinions to SDF-1.
"Bulitai is a very powerful Gerati star. And his assistant Essekidolu is also a first-class staff officer in the main fleet."
Although Richard Birla is not yet fully proficient in using human language, his meaning has been expressed.
"It seems that this battle is unavoidable. Richard, thank you very much for the reminder! I will be looking after you next!"
Grobar said firmly.
"For Lin Mingmei! We are willing to give everything!"
After speaking, Richard Birla disconnected the communication.
At the same time, Gerardi warships belonging to Richard Birla's side were distributed around SDF-1 and boarded the ship one after another, actively providing cover for SDF-1.
The reason why the Gerardians headed by Richard Birla did this was because of the pretty girl who stood on the small platform in front of the SDF-1 bridge, waiting for the moment the music started, and sang loudly.
