The original shot comes from a satellite perspective that simulates the asteroid belt.

When the bells that rang through the entire blue sea and starry sky rang, destroyers flew towards the asteroid belt without hesitation in the magnificent background music.

In the end, they stayed in a certain range from the asteroid belt and began to place transport ships and individual mechas on asteroids according to the previous plan.

The entire silver design makes the whole scene look particularly spectacular, as if a real war is going on in full swing.

The passion in the hearts of many viewers was rekindled.

This is the military headquarters of the empire, this is the mecha of the empire!

When the densely packed new mechas of the Time Series appeared in the connection belt of the asteroid belt, many viewers couldn't help but stand up and applaud.

These applauses are not only dedicated to the soldiers who have always guarded the empire, but also to the researchers who have worked hard to study the latest technology of the empire mecha.

For example, Professor Ronan and Xiuichiko, who had become famous for the plagiarism case in the imperial capital.

Without their efforts, the new generation of Empire Mecha would never have debuted so quickly.

And there is a deeper layer for every empire’s people. The mecha complex that has been passed down since the era of Chen Butcher is deeply rooted.

It is the most perfect combination of steel and primitive stone. It is precisely because of this magical combination of mankind and steel that humans can gain a foothold in this star field.

Mecha, for the Empire, is itself a kind of faith.

...

The military exercise officially began, and the morale of the Red Alliance was in full swing.

Apart from a slight disadvantage in terms of terrain, they almost possessed all the advantages of a war.

They have strong logistics, several times the enemy's troops, and more informative information.

Coupled with the latest [target tactics] proposed by General Keynes specifically for the enemies who have broken the whole into pieces, the Red Camp has achieved fruitful fruits at the beginning of the military exercise.

Among the first attack points, at least half of the Blue Army mechas were unable to break through and were surrounded and suppressed by the Red Alliance.

Due to the emergence of target tactics, some pilots with extraordinary operation skills were unable to escape and were eventually "eliminated" or captured by the Red Army.

The battle reports on the front line are constantly coming, and the atmosphere is relatively relaxed in the Red Camp Command established on the periphery of the asteroid belt.

Although Cairns still had a serious face, anyone could tell that the general was in a good mood now.

"Leni, have another cup of coffee. Add more sugar."

Anyone who is familiar with him knows that this means that the general is relatively optimistic about the next battle situation.

"Blind optimism is not a good thing."

However, at this moment, a discordant voice appeared in the command center.

Cairns took a sip of coffee and said with a smile: "Genius General, I am not blindly optimistic, but the overall situation is just like this."

"I don't know how effective Baihe's troops are, but they must have never trained to escape like a rebel. I took a rough look at the results of the first round. In just three hours, the Blue Army's vitality was at least half solved by us!"

"I think the three days I proposed before were still a bit conservative. They insisted on it for up to 24 hours."

Accompanied by Keynes' confident words, cheerful chuckles came from the command center.

The old man with a straight waist stood tall and his face darkened and he shook his head silently.

Keynes's face suddenly sank.

He didn't understand why Lord He Sicheng was still unsatisfied after the results of the first round came out.

It's only been three hours!

Do you have to wipe out the enemy in three hours?

Isn't this realistic?

He subconsciously took a look at the latest all-round battle report.

Half a minute later, his face turned blue instantly.

"Do you understand?" He Sicheng asked softly.

Although he did not play any role in this military exercise, he was actually an adviser to the Red Army in essence.

He did not come forward directly, but there were actually quite a lot of secret suggestions from Keynes; everyone here knew this.

If they had said before, their impression of this old general was that he was good at playing with power and tricks, and was deeply loved by His Majesty the Emperor, and he was good at dealing with the cabinet, just like the folk comment, "It is better to say that he is a politician than a soldier." However, after just three hours of military exercise, everyone's impression of him changed.

The military qualities of this veteran general are definitely more than just one politician.

The few words he said almost all pointed to the key points of the battle.

Even the [target tactics] set for guerrilla strikes that Keynes himself created after months of hard thinking was only used in actual combat exercises after being improved by the veteran general.

Now that he opened his mouth, everyone felt strange, but they still felt a stern.

Especially when I saw General Keynes' thoughtful eyes.

The staff members began to carefully check the battle report in their hands, wanting to know what went wrong.

After a while, someone exclaimed: "This is a battle loss ratio?"

Keynes's face was as deep as water: "The battle loss ratio is indeed a bit exaggerated."

Before, they were immersed in joy, just looking at how many Blue Army they destroyed, but did not carefully observe the losses of their mechas.

Now, under He Sicheng's suggestion, everyone was scared by this terrifying data!

The battle loss ratio is close to 1.8 to 1!

What is this concept?

When the Red Alliance has a serious advantage in military strength and information, every time one Blue Army mecha is eliminated or captured, it must consume nearly two mechas!

This is completely unscientific!

How could the pilots in the Ninth Military Region be so powerful?

Keynes frowned: "Do you cooperate well?"

This is an excuse he had found after thinking hard for a long time.

After all, the Red Alliance is a mixed organization of the Second Military Region and the Sixth Military Region. The relationship between the two sides is not very good. Maybe there will be some personal grudges before; if you don’t cooperate tacitly, it is reasonable.

But despite this, such a war loss ratio is unacceptable to the empire.

That is, military exercises. If it is in actual combat, such a war loss ratio may even force the military headquarters to temporarily withdraw its troops under pressure!

After all, the life of every imperial person is very precious, especially the elite pilots.

"In the northern battlefield, the combat losses are much higher than this one."

He Sicheng took a sip of tea and moistened his voice, but his tone was still neither happy nor sad: "This is the fundamental reason why the empire could never take over the resistance army."

"It's not that we can't destroy them, but that we can't afford that price!"

A staff member pushed his glasses and still couldn't believe it: "This is completely different from what we planned."

“Is the terrain advantage really that important?”

"It's not a terrain advantage." Keynes retorted with a cold face: "The Ninth Military Region troops are fighting in the asteroid belt for the first time. They have received less information than ours. They are facing an encirclement-style attack, and the pressure is several times higher than ours..."

"Is this a matter of morale?"

He looked up and looked at He Sicheng, and a trace of enlightenment flashed in his eyes: "I guess the secret order before is the function, right?"

He Sicheng nodded with relief.

A young staff officer asked in a daze: "What does this have to do with morale? And why does the previous secret order also have something to do with war losses?"

Keynes looked at the tender face and shook his head:

"I thought at first that the General was just an existence playing with politics and power. Now, I apologize to you for my previous ignorance."

"General Baihe is your disciple, so you naturally know his character, so you can definitely guess what he will do even if he disobeys the instructions of his superiors, he will not let his soldiers be shamed."

"In such a situation, you deliberately issued that secret order, which is not to reduce the difficulty of military exercises for me, but to simulate the situation in the north more truly."

"The soldiers of the Ninth Military Region will definitely be extremely angry under the dual inspiration of secret orders and General Baihe. At this time, there is not much difference between them and those rebels."

"That's why this kind of battle loss ratio occurs, right? Every pilot in the Ninth Military Region is fighting with his life. When he is about to be captured, even if he pays his "life", they will take away a red camp mecha... It's so similar to the northern rebels."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the command room was silent.

Deep inside them, they were filled with shock.

Unexpectedly, He Sicheng's secret order that seemed full of political odor was hidden behind it.

"The indicator I give you is 1.5 to 1. This is the final result. If it is not achieved, then you will still be considered as a failure."

He Sicheng stood up lightly: "How to fight next depends on yourself."

"I have to meet an old friend."

"Maybe it's the last one."

As he said that, the old general quickly left the command room, leaving only a group of staff officers and Keynes in contemplation.
