Chapter 257, you guessed it, right?
Gu Hang listened to the battle report between the Phoenix Chapter and the Alliance Air Force while sitting in the headquarters of the Alliance Expeditionary Force in a suburban town.
To be honest, Gu Hang was the first person in the army to provide support to the suburban town.
He was among the first to land in a spaceship.
The commander of the troops fiercely opposed the governor's decision - it was too dangerous.According to their thinking, the Governor shouldn't have come at all and could just stay peacefully on the Raging Owl Star.
If you have to 'conquer in person', then you should stay on a relatively safe starship and strategize. What are you doing by going to the front line in person?
However, Gu Hang only gave some comfort to these persuasion but did not listen.
Of course it's not that he doesn't take his own life seriously, but he has strong self-confidence.
On the one hand, he was sure that since his cousin did not dare to fight in the starry sky when the Blade Tiger was approaching; nor did he dare to force the army of the Kingdom to use orbital strike force, the bombardment had already reached the orbit of the planet. on the battleship.Then, it is very likely that they will not dare to attack the landing ship.
What's more, the location chosen by the landing ship also avoided the air defense fire circle near the capital, which further ensured safety during landing.
Another source of his self-confidence is his own strength.
Not only is he a psyker who has been promoted to LV7, his strength has been greatly improved compared to the past, but more importantly, the talents and characteristics he gained after defeating the evil god. All these bonuses are taken into account, even if he is on a landing ship. Even if something unexpected happened and he was blown up in the air, he would still be able to land safely.
Including the assembly of the troops after landing on the landing ship, he left it all to the four division commanders. He himself mobilized his psychic power and quickly flew to the suburban town.
It's faster than the Wind Falcon that needs to be pulled out of the landing ship!
It can also be seen from this that Gu Hang looks calm and calm on the surface, but in fact, he is still somewhat anxious in his heart.
His arrival has considerable practical significance.
With his current psychic strength, it might be difficult to tear the Knight Titan alive from a distance - unless he can tear open the rift in the Kingdom of God to strengthen his own psychic strength.
But if the knight titan dared to be exposed in front of him for a little longer, or if Gu Hang took a little risk and got closer and passed the energy shield, then he could do this.
As for the ordinary sentry mecha, that's out of the question.Gu Hang estimated that if he struck a lightning beam, one of them would be killed.And if the enemy engages in an intensive charge, it is also possible to baptize them with a chain lightning or use spiritual energy to form a thundercloud storm.
After obtaining [Storm Master], his spiritual energy can be turned into lightning. In terms of pure destructive power, it is much more powerful than using telekinesis in the past.
With Gu Hang in charge, the alliance has an extra 'artillery battalion'.Moreover, not only is the firepower fierce, but the key is also extremely precise.
This is the direct help Gu Hang can provide to the battle situation.
And if the war really gets tense, he can still use his unique move - tear open the rift in the Kingdom of God!
In that way, not only will his own spiritual strength be greatly enhanced, but there will also be thousands of heroic warriors in the Kingdom of God.
If that doesn't work... the incarnation of a lesser god can be created.It still looks like a giant thunderstorm bear. Its strength is not as good as that of the big devil, and it is at least [-]% capable. It is like tearing apart a knight titan with bare hands like a toy.
However, the movement of these moves was too loud.It is true that he is a legal psyker, but he can tear open the cracks in the real world and summon real heroes to fight... This performance is too shocking, and it is not something that ordinary psykers can do. If it spreads, It will definitely lead to an investigation by the Imperial Tribunal.
For the Imperial Inquisition, the identity of the Planetary Governor and the claims of being a legal psyker cannot be preserved.When the time comes, if they go crazy and insist on taking Gu Hang to the General Tribunal of the Eastern Universe for investigation, then...
Gu Hang could only kill them and fall out with the Tribunal.
Otherwise, would you really go?
Of course, if this situation can't happen, then try not to happen.Unless absolutely necessary, he will definitely not reveal a series of abilities that can open the cracks in the Kingdom of God.
In fact, the fighting situation was not at all like that.
The enemy indeed stepped up their offensive on Suburban Town because of the arrival of the Raging Star Army.They urgently replenished their troops and, at the commander's request, began a fierce attack.
As for the troops under Popov's command in the suburban town, although they were not out of food, they were at least almost out of ammunition.Although Gu Hang's arrival and public appearance boosted the morale of the alliance troops stationed in the suburban town, the objective conditions are still not dependent on human will.
Gu Hang himself was also ready to take action, at least first using conventional psychic power to form a storm to supplement the firepower of the alliance army.
But it didn't work.
As soon as the enemy's offensive started, it was abruptly interrupted by the landing Space Marines.
The artillery position was overrun by the Phoenixes. Naturally, the attacking Luman Army soldiers could no longer fight and retreated hastily, preparing for rescue.
Then, the Knight Titan without the shield generator and the rocket turret in the distance was also killed. The Space Marines were still under the cover of the Wind Falcon, retreating calmly, and after staying away from the enemy, they went up. He grabbed the fighter plane and flew into the suburban town.
When he got the battle report first, Gu Hang knew that he didn't need to worry about the battlefield.
He said to his mother who looked a little haggard and embarrassed in front of him: "My army has fulfilled its mission, right?"
Ms. Wang Qi is no longer as high-profile as she used to be when she met Gu Hang several times in the past.She sighed: "Thanks to General Purbeuf and the Raging Star soldiers led by him. Without them fighting to the death and without their huge sacrifices, I would definitely die here. If Gu Ming catches me, he will not let me go." Exceed mine."
Gu Hang sighed: "I didn't expect that the Gu family, which has always been known for its unity, would get into such trouble."
"Didn't you already expect that?"
"It's one thing to take precautions before something happens, but it's another thing for it to actually happen. As for Gu Ming, what are you going to do after you're caught?"
"You haven't caught him yet, so you are so sure that he can't escape?"
It is normal for Wang Qi to ask this question.
The starship belonging to her couldn't send a spaceship to land in the suburban town to pick her up and leave, but Gu Ming could.
Although Gu Ming's fleet was at a disadvantage due to its small fleet in space, there was no orbital air defense system on the ground to attack his spacecraft.If he wants to evacuate by spaceship, there is a good chance.
Gu Hang didn't see it that way: "He can't run away. The orbital anti-aircraft cannon on the ground does not belong to him."
Wang Qi understood immediately what her son was referring to.
The orbital air defense system is essentially in the hands of Nes Luhmann.It is true that he and Gu Ming are allies and will help him intercept Wang Qi's spaceship and prevent her from evacuating.But if Gu Ming wanted to run away, I'm afraid Ness Luhmann wouldn't agree.It's like abandoning him.
If this happened, Gu Hang judged that the two would probably fall out.
Wang Qi also agreed with her son's judgment.
As for the ground part...
Gu Hang also showed strong confidence in front of his own mother: "The capital will be destroyed in at most two days. As long as Gu Ming doesn't escape in the spaceship, then my army will definitely catch him."
Wang Qi has no doubt about this.
The 3 troops led by Purbov were able to defend here for eight days.
In the past eight days, the army on the opposite side has not stopped at all and has been attacking fiercely.But not only did he hold on, he also destroyed two Knight Titans of the Luman Kingdom in the previous battle.
But now, Gu Hang personally led his troops to provide support.Not only were there 5000 more people, more than Perbov's team, but the number of Lion tanks was three times the original number of the expeditionary force, directly reaching hundreds.There are also a hundred Wind Falcons as an air force.
With such military strength, the Luman Kingdom has nothing to offer against.In their heyday, that might have been okay, but the Lumans had suffered heavy losses in the past eight days of fighting.Ness lost almost half of the royal army.
Even if he could convince the two so-called marquises to help him with all their strength, it would only be a return to their previous fighting strength.
But under Gu Hang's command, there was something even more exaggerated: fifteen space warriors.
Speaking of which, Wang Qi was completely in disbelief when she first heard the news.
She had dealt with a war group called the Exterminators. It was a ship-based war group that had no home planet and relied mainly on a fleet.
When she personally led the team to replenish supplies for the 'Exterminator', she couldn't afford the money, so she asked her caravan to wait, and the money would be available soon.
At that time, the Exterminators were participating in a counter-rebellion war. Wang Qi saw with her own eyes that after participating in the war, the Exterminators defeated the imperial traitors on that planet like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.That war group fought in a cruel style and did not regard the lives of mortals as their fate.The killing and plundering after the victory were done very cleanly, fitting their name.
But that's second.
After the victory of the war, the governor of that planet held a banquet to thank the Space Marines, but the exterminators who attended the banquet, all wearing armor, were completely rude and demanded that the governor pay for 'supplies'.
We're all done, need supplies.
According to the exterminators, this is for the subsequent war. They will embark on the journey again and rush to the next war, which of course requires supplies.
They also need population and ordnance, to replenish the fleet sailors, and replenish the mortal auxiliary army; they need to conduct a conscription on the planet, need a large number of teenagers, and use cruel escape and extremely high mortality trials to select new recruits.
The exterminators have listed quotas for these things and require the governor to provide them in full within a time limit. If it is not enough, they will get it themselves.If you dare to block it, you will be considered a rebel.
The planetary governor couldn't get enough, and wanted more time from the Space Marines.But the Exterminators took action without saying a word. Just as they said, they could get it themselves.
Wang Qi saw all this.
Some of the bloody loot and 'taxes' were what the Exterminators used to pay for supplies.
That contact made Wang Qi have a very deep impression on the Space Marines.She thought that the subsequent Exterminators would at least be reprimanded by the Empire. After all, they attacked and plundered an Imperial planet.
But actually, no.The Exterminator walked away to the next war, but the planetary governor was punished by the empire.
Space Marines are angels, but don't forget that the prefix of the name 'angel' is 'death'.The Emperor's mercy they bring is usually by sending the target in need of mercy to the Emperor to experience it personally.
The time she went to Angry Owl as a guest, she never saw the Phoenix.
At first, she thought they were friendly forces, external reinforcements that her son had invited from nowhere.
But later, I discovered that those space warriors actually followed Gu Hang's orders seriously!
Wang Qi, who was implanted with a fear of Space Marines in her heart and deeply felt that the Emperor's angels were something that she could not offend at all and it was even better not to deal with them. Now that she saw fifteen Space Marines fighting for her son, she could imagine. And I don't know how big the impact will be in my heart.
She was vaguely uneasy about this, but at least she recognized the combat effectiveness of the Space Marines.
With the assistance of these fifteen angels of death, the victory of the war should be exactly as the son said, without any problem.
Thinking of this, she looked deeply at Gu Hang's face.
Being able to make the Space Marines obey orders... She didn't understand, she was worried, but she had to admit that her son was really capable.
Afterwards, the mother and son got back to business.
What to do after Gu Ming is captured or confirmed to be dead is essentially about how to reintegrate the family's power.
Wang Qi didn't want Gu Ming to live, but if she had a choice, it would be best to capture him alive.Of course it would be best to capture Feiyingxing and have him publicly tried and executed.
However, this cannot be forced.On the one hand, guns and cannons have no eyes on the battlefield, and there is nothing they can do if they die; on the other hand, as long as Gu Ming does not die, there will be variables.
When it comes to Flying Star, Gu Ming still has the foundation, so something unexpected will happen.Arrest, detention, trial, execution... There are still too many things that can be done in this whole process.Once you enter the formal process, some things are difficult to do.
Rather than being forced to kill him in prison or under house arrest if the situation changes and he is forced to suffer a bad reputation, it would be better to end it directly on the battlefield.
Anyway, it was you, Gu Ming, who made the first move. Even if they are dead, no one can say that Gu Hang, mother and son, are cruel.
As long as Gu Ming dies, coupled with the fact that he took the initiative to initiate armed turmoil and a family coup, and Wang Qi himself is the party with more support from the Gu Chamber of Commerce, it should not be difficult to completely control the power of the entire Gu family. .
After Wang Qi finished speaking her thoughts, she asked her son: "What about you? What do you think of Black Arrow Star?"
Gu Hang showed a bright smile: "Mom, didn't you see it too?"
