Face-Slapping the Interstellar General and His Ger (9.1)


Editor: ghost


The marshals looked at each other, directly skipped Mu Xinhua and said, “Zhou Xu, we appoint you as the commander-in-chief for this operation. Mu Xinhua, conduct the operations according to Zhou Xu’s instructions.”


“Understood.”


This was not a time for jokes. Mu Xinhua would obviously not be embarrassed in such a time.


All soldiers deployed rapidly, no one dragged their feet. This was war. They could not afford to delay for even a second.


The soldiers arrived at the desert in less than 20 minutes.


Zhou Xu rapidly gave orders. They would first make a concealment plan according to the characteristics of the desert. Then, they would find the best location to attack based on the analysis made by the radar Zhou Xu had designed.


The so-called favorable conditions: climate, geography and human, they had all three of them.


During this process, the enemy also felt strange. Why hadn’t they been discovered this time even when they arrived at the outskirts of the planet? They were discovered so quickly last time. Besides, they even intentionally set a radar screen last time while they didn’t have any this time.


All these guesses made the enemy a little bit uneasy. However, whomever was the quickest had the advantage during war. That’s why, even though they felt suspicious, they still kept their initial speed and continued to move forward at a high speed.


If they could directly seize control of the enemy’s command post using this method, then the war was won. Their planet’s future would also be guaranteed. Their attack could also be considered as efficiently accomplished.


Even though they felt a little bit suspicious, in order to seize the opportunity first, they did not make any countermeasures. They entered Zhou Xu’s trap just like that.


On the outskirts of the planet, the enemy used the radar to monitor the landing ground. This time they discovered a little bit of subtlety, the landing ground seemed to be a little bit different from the anticipated one. But the difference was not big, and was in fact so small that they felt that it was caused by a little error in the radar.


They did not think that because they ignored such a small error, they would put their own troops in great danger.


However, this was war. The faster the initiative was taken in war, the more advantageous it would be.


Indeed, if they occupied the command post, they would win, and the future of their planet would be secured. Unfortunately, in war, this kind of wishful thinking was in many cases the direct cause of failure.


During the two hour wait, Zhou Xu told Mu Xinhua all his experiences and lessons from desert wars. Mu Xinhua rarely led soldiers to fight on the ground. This was not only a ground war, but the especially difficult desert war.


Zhou Xu briefly taught Mu Xinhua the main points to be cautious of during a desert war. At the same time, he told Mu Xinhua some tricks to it.


Mu Xinhua listened quietly but earnestly. Occasionally he would have questions and promptly asked them. Zhou Xu also rapidly answered. But because the enemy’s troops were drawing near, Zhou Xu didn’t have time to elaborate and Mu Xinhua didn’t have time for praises or words of love.


At the warships’ landing time, the enemies finally realized why they couldn’t reach the ground all this time. It was not until one of the warships unexpectedly fell that they abruptly realized that they fell into someone else’s trap.


Yes, they were wrong from the start. It was not that Zhou Xu hadn’t discovered them, but that they had fallen into Zhou Xu’s trap.


It was already too late. The fallen warship was the most advanced, and because it was the most advanced, it was the first to respond to the ground information sent by the radar, and thus became the first victim.


The supreme commander of this war was also inside this fallen warship. The warship ignited in midair due to its rapid descent. With a thunderous sound, the new-type warship, which had been built with a lot of money, was destroyed.


Zhou Xu and Mu Xinhua were separated in two different warships and could not communicate with each other. But the huge explosion sound of the new kind of warship was like a huge “praise”. Zhou Xu smiled faintly. He estimated that the radar designed by him to timely interfere with the enemies’ communication system would start soon.


Zhou Xu put on his own communication device and ordered in a deep voice, “Warship 30-5071, 30-5072, take off from the left side, distance of 15,000 meters from the ground and send out all mechas. Warship 40-6011, 40-6012, take off from the rear flank, distance of 13,000 meters from the ground, send 30 mechas at 15,000 meters, send 30 mechas…”


Mu Xinhua was Zhou Xu’s soldier at that moment. When he heard Zhou Xu’s voice coming out of the communication device, he felt proud. The man who could command three quarters of the Empire’s soldiers was his lover.


Zhou Xu’s whole body was covered with mystery. He could be the best pianist, the best chef, the best technician, the best mecha driver and even the best commander of the Empire. In the end, how did he do it?


Mu Xinhua wanted to smile bitterly. He felt that the gap between him and his lover was a little too big. He could only work harder in order to be worthy of such an outstanding Zhou Xu.


Zhou Xu’s orders came at this point of time, “Mu Xinhua, the two warships you lead will face the enemy head-on.”


Suddenly there was a momentary silence during the communication. Zhou Xu’s voice softened a lot when Mu Xinhua heard him say, “Please be careful.”


Mu Xinhua, who wanted to smile bitterly just a moment ago, was so moved that he wanted to find a place to run two laps.


The warship used the fastest speed to take off. Ten thousand meters above ground, the enemies’ troops who were preparing to ask instructions from their supreme commander suddenly realized that they were unable to communicate.


Anxiously, they repeatedly checked their communication device. In these 10 minutes, the warships ordered by Zhou Xu successfully took off.


Not able to escape nor fight, the enemies’ troops panicked. They had no choice but to meet the enemy head-on. But as soon as their mechas went out, they discovered that they were already attacked from both sides.


Some mecha drivers didn’t even open fire. Looking at the situation outside, they knew they could definitely not win. Some of them even directly raised their hands to surrender.


Of course, only a few of them surrendered directly. Most of them still fought to the best of their ability. They were real soldiers.


The battle was very intense. And as long as this was a war, there would always be casualties.


At the last stage of the war, the enemy also went all out. Several dozens of mechas imperceptibly landed to the ground. This was the start of the real desert battle.


Zhou Xu ordered the 50 mechas from his team to fight against these mechas.


“N°1 to N°5, lure the mechas to the coordinate 76.82/90.54. Pay attention to the sand dune behind. Push it slightly and it will collapse. Make good use of it.”


“Understood”


“N°6 to N°10, conceal yourself at coordinate 76.32/90.75. Be ready to support N°11 to N°15 at any time.”


“Understood.”


“N°11 to N°15, you…”


Zhou Xu’s orders were clear and methodical. Everybody was at the position where they should be, no matter if it was in hiding, attacking or retreating. Everything was very accurate. Because they were in the desert, the moving speed of the mechas and the power of their weapons would have some fluctuations. All of this had been explained by Zhou Xu at the beginning.


The moment they welcomed another group of enemies, another team landed. It was Wu Mingdi’s team.


The team led by Wu Mingdi had already defeated its target. After he saw the enemies’ mechas landing on the ground, Wu Mingdi ordered his team to pursue the enemies.


Zhou Xu had ordered that none of the mechas assigned in the sky were to land, but Wu Mingdi still led his team to land.


For a moment, Zhou Xu was filled with anger. In war, the soldiers’ duty was to obey orders. But Wu Mingdi actually ignored Zhou Xu’s order and led his team to land without permission. The huge problem was that they were novices in desert war and had no advantage at all.


Wu Mingdi’s landing directly disrupted Zhou Xu’s plan. The original orderly battle became a mess.


Zhou Xu took the communication device, opened the frequency channel of all the soldiers and roared, “Wu Mingdi, lead your team to retreat back outside coordinate 76.”


When Wu Mingdi heard the instruction, he wanted to retreat. However, when he looked again, it was already too late–they had been targeted by the enemies’ troops.


The teams led by Zhou Xu were already hidden. The enemy would obviously target Wu Mingdi’s team. When Wu Mingdi heard Zhou Xu’s order, he had also hesitated and lost their advantage in an instant.


The enemies’ mechas quickly launched an attack. In an instant, sand flew everywhere, and the fierce firepower burned a piece of the desert. 5 or 6 mechas from Wu Mingdi’s team were destroyed.


Zhou Xu gave orders to his own team, “Team N°1, N°21 and N°26, provide assistance immediately. Team N°31, sneak attack from behind. Team N°46, take off immediately right in front of them to divert their attention. The rest stay put and do your job.”


“Understood.”


Because of Wu Mingdi, Zhou Xu was almost driven mad by anger. But because he was this war’s supreme commander, he couldn’t lose his composure. After taking a deep brief, he once again took the communication device and spoke to the whole army. “The team assigned to the sky are forbidden from landing at will. If there are other violations, they will be dealt according to military regulations.”


Afterwards, Zhou Xu began to stare at the team on the ground, especially Wu Mingdi’s mecha team.


They were surrounded and the goal was to find out how to break out of the encirclement.


While Zhou Xu was trying to provide assistance, Wu Mingdi already led several mechas to force their way through the encirclement. However, the enemy’s teams originally had strong firepower while they had always relied on speed to win.


This time, they did not have any advantage. Wu Mingdi could only force their way.


Zhou Xu could only match Wu Mingdi’s method of breaking through the encirclement. He let several 5-person teams aid Wu Mingdi.


In the desert, there were not many obstructions. The enemy also understood what Wu Mingdi wanted to do and quickly changed their mode of encirclement.


In the end, Wu Mingdi could only change his method. But because of that, the aid sent by Zhou Xu was meaningless.


At that time, Mu Xinhua sent a message, “The battle in the air is mostly over, do you have other instructions?”


“Very good. Bring a dozen mecha teams to come down and help me. Don’t alert other teams, otherwise the captured enemies may make trouble.”


“Understood.”


Mu Xinhua quickly led ten mecha teams to land. After landing, he found out that he had been sent down to save Wu Mingdi’s team.


If it was only Wu Mingdi, then Zhou Xu would rather sacrifice him, or rather, no matter who it was, Zhou Xu would have chosen to sacrifice them. But Wu Mingdi had to bring his entire team. Zhou Xu did not have a choice as he couldn’t sacrifice a whole team of mechas.


Zhou Xu was still grinding his teeth. He really hated Wu Mingdi’s behavior of trying to act as a hero.


When Mu Xinhua’s team landed, Zhou Xu also did not have any worries left. He directly got in his mecha.


Zhou Xu’s mecha was red. It was especially eye-catching in the yellow desert, like a hawk circling around, but nobody knew who his target was.


Quickly advancing, Zhou Xu and Mu Xinhua communicated in private, “Can you stop the two blue mechas on the left side?”


Mu Xinhua operated his mecha and looked at the left side. 7 or 8 mechas were there, but with one glance one could see that the two blue mechas were the leader. First, it was obvious that the two mechas had a firepower one level above the others. Secondly, the attack pattern of the mechas in the back obviously followed the two mechas.


To catch bandits, first catch the ringleader. Mu Xinhua answered, “I can.”


“Okay, I will take care of the gray mecha in front of me.”


“Understood.”
