"It appears that the first and second fleet of enemies have infiltrated Zayed, Mr. Taylor. The third and fourth fleet groups are each stalled in the Calaba D2 system and the California system due to delayed activity. According to the report, the third and fourth fleets are unlikely to be able to participate in the collision at the beginning."

Instead of dropping your eyes on the terminal, Xiao Mei leaves her gaze toward Taro. Taro grabbed his fist all the way to the report, thanking Dean and Gigantech for their help in his heart.

"That's the one that couldn't stop the main fleet, but now it's pretty easy. Eight fleets at 3 and 4, so it's roughly 400 ships...... I'm talking about how the auxiliary fleet alone is the same as our total strength."

When Taro removed two large items from the fleet list shown on the tactical screen at BISHOP, the fleet display on the holographized map disappeared snugly. However, the area representing the vicinity of the Zayed inlet still had a huge red light point that solidified.

"Number one... that is, a fleet of twenty main enemy fleets. There are 12 fleets in the second group. There are more than 10 fleets, so I wonder if it's okay to use regimental notation. I knew it would be a fight first with the second one, right?

Marr said as he looked back at Taro. Anxiety had appeared on that face, but I could also see it blown out somewhere.

"From Mr. Phantom's information, he probably does. The second is that you're solidifying on a fast legged ship, so you're going for the facility first. I guess the main force is going to surround the facility just in case."

"It would be troublesome if a ship loaded with evidence could escape. Is the operation on schedule?

"Basically, yeah. Since the other main force came earlier than expected, the timing of introducing the arr might need to be a little quicker...... Xiaomei, is Alan saying anything?

"No, Mr. Taylor. I think it's still difficult to navigate. Worst case scenario, we might not be able to introduce it in time."

"Whoa, seriously. From what we can tell, it's almost a favor, right?

He was usually Alan packing on the second bridge of Battleship Plum, but was now engaged in an important operation elsewhere. Taronda had quite a bet on the operation, and Taron felt a hard and painful stomach area.

"It's an unprecedented operation, so you can't help it, Mr. Taylor. And our first challenge is to take on a second fleet of predecessors. We should concentrate on you."

Xiao Mei said with a clear face. Taro, who was beginning to create tension and impatience, was thankful for how this same little plum looked.

"Right...... Mr. Bella, what are you going to do about getting ready over there?

Head to the comms and talk to them. Soon afterwards, Bella's upper body was shown inside the goggles.

"" For now, I don't know where I said that. I can't help it, but the prostitutes are moving a little badly. Detailed instructions in battle could be counterproductive. ""

"I see... Roger that. Please, Commander."

"" I'll take care of it. Except for the prostitutes, you know who they are. I'll give you more work than your salary, Commander-in-Chief. ""

Bella with an eye-catching look and Taro smiling back at it.

The Commander-in-Chief of the RS fleet is undoubtedly Taro, but all operations of the main fleet were left to Bella. She leads the main fleet of RS on a daily basis, and the gift of her collective control was much more reliable than the fleet's operations with Taran's robust parallel processing.

"I can't afford that one or that one."

Turning to the tactical screen, Taro looked at the marking of the fleet, which he would direct command, separated from the main fleet. An attacking fleet (assault fleet) using Battleship Plum as its flagship, by 50 selected vessels.

"Well, why don't you go poke around?"

When Taro said so, he often closed his eyes and calmed his mind. The majority of my head was occupied by the letter anxiety, but I was also certain that somewhere there was something like a beast waiting to be liberated.

- "Establish data link" -

- "Linkage Overdrive Standby" -

Taro opened his eyes, hoping that the beast would devour the letter anxiety when he was forced to hold down his trembling hand with the other hand.

"Raid fleet, forward. We're going to pull a halench bastard trying to get up in someone else's house with dirt feet!

Screaming Taro. A voice of understanding that returns from all over. The plum emits a strong flash from that thruster and begins to move at the slow acceleration characteristic of the battleship. Plus the Suga brothers' manipulative cherry boys and techno breaks continue, as four flat shield ships expand to consolidate left and right. The other ships created four long rows to hide behind each shield ship, and that was always an attitude to put them into battle.

- "Linkage overdrive activated" -

The perimeter of the fleet is surrounded by blue light, each of which becomes an arrow of light and flies away. The plum, which became the last jump due to its large mass, created a large blue arrow and disappeared into the void.

About 600 battleships floating in space. From Rising Sun, it is called the second fleet group, and in the Mercenaries, a rapid-build fleet that gathers only high-speed ships called simply the striking fleet group. It is often impossible to even act together if it is normal, such as a fleet of hastily built large areas.

But this fleet, led by Admiral Sodo, the Mercenaries Mercenary Dispatch Director, was in fleet action in a yarnless and vivid move. Their daily duties require them to be deployed as combat personnel to some battlefield and to work on the spot for twelve minutes. Fighting in an impromptu fleet was common, rather in that form. If we can prepare a fleet in advance, most of the time, we can have people.

"Admiral, it seems the other side has noticed. Miss Yotta confirmed the continuous emission of the drive particles."

Striking fleet group flagship, battleship Asmorde bridge. So Admiral Sodo roared at the words unleashed by his deputy.

"You're still a tremendous ability. Is it something that can be captured from such a distance?"

Admiral Sodo knew what his bosses were capable of about Etta and Yotta and had fears about it. Speaking of age, over fifty sodos stroked their brightly dyed hair back and were delighted that they were not enemies.

"This universe is basically deserted. Isn't it a big point that there's no other presence besides the enemy fleet that releases drive particles?

"I guess so. But I'm thankful I didn't have to bother to have a big stupid observation ship. They're only in the way if it's a fight, and their feet are slow."

Admiral Sodo glanced at the tactical screen and confirmed that his fleet was moving satisfactorily. Each had repeated a continuous warp in an orderly fashion, in spite of almost every rush, only two of them had fallen off due to a malfunction or something.

"But you've often been able to prepare so many elaborate maps. Maybe your enemies aren't lying all the time."

said as the deputy made a peek into the sod. When Sodo glanced at such a deputy sideways, he waved, "Stop it" or something.

"Let me tell you why I was able to rise to this position. That's because I didn't pry into the above. Except to talk about if you're going somewhere else, but if you're here, you should. It reads people's minds."

Sodo walked over to the window-shaped tactical screen with his deputy making a surprising look on his ass. It shows the view outside in real time, with annotated information about the fleets and stars you see there.

"From a distance, don't meet me in a couple of days...... what do you think. Are they still going to turn their backs?

His boss, Etta, talked about the enemy always coming to the forefront. She never missed that prediction before, and he believed in it, too.

"That would be so. This is 600, 400 over there. I don't think they have a choice but to come with all their might."

The deputy said lightly. Sodo nodded vaguely at it and decided to repeat the question he had repeated many times since his departure.

"All ships, emergency escape systems are operational, right?

To Sodo's question, the deputy nodded somewhat fed up.

"Yeah. I'm making double triple checks. They all say there's no problem.............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Sodo felt all the humans on the bridge listening to his deputy's query. The little stiffness disappears and the tranquility drifts.

"No, it's not. If it's in full swing, we'll win. The opponents are good commanders and soldiers, but that's the same for us. If so, then numbers say things later"

Sodo affirmed so, heading outside the bridge just saying the story was over. He wasn't going to lie to me himself, and he was supposed to be right.

"... yes, if it's in perfect condition"

When one grunted so in the hallway, Sodo stopped and sighed.

He had not imitated the man above him in any way, but we knew that this war was clearly different from the usual one. Above was a stiff hurry anyway, and there was nothing to explain about replenishment or reinforcements.

Initially I was optimistic that it would be an easier fight than I needed them, but as I looked into my opponents, I came to know that this was not the case. Although the other company was not a military company, it was very hand-worked and, above all, united in one. The high morale soldier was not an insulting opponent, even if he was inferior in terms of equipment, he had to be careful.

"Our company will win. But how's our fleet? Isn't this just a throwaway pawn?

When Sodo spoke of the concerns he had continued to feel since his departure, he looked around in advance. That wasn't something someone would ask me.

"Outerspace... why are we even here?"

Like most Galactic Empire citizens, Sodo didn't know much about outer space. There was only a vague perception that it was a lawless zone, and we did not even know whether the various humanitarian laws in wartime would be observed. The enemy is notorious, the so-called Outlaw Corp, and possibly the kind of opponent who shoots his escape pod out fine.

"Terrible place."

When the commander leading the 600 ships groaned so, he sighed loudly again, hoping that the other commander would at least be a merciful man.
