Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 278

278. Chapter 277, Intercontinental Missile

Alliance is not Gu Hang’s alliance alone, and he cannot decide everything, otherwise he will be exhausted.

At present, everyone is discussing and gradually forming a plan, which is the situation he hopes to see.

These people are talented and potential.

Through the function of the system, Gu Hang selected them and used the [Hero] template to make their growth rate even higher, which is the effect he wants now.

The three of them discussed and came up with a result. Gu Hang looked at it and found no problem, so he just executed it.

After sending the three away, they each went to do their own things, and Gu Hang fell into deep thought in the office alone.

To be honest, after the intelligence from Blackbird City came back, he didn’t want to start a war directly.

Just be prepared. Initiating the second-level mobilization order is also a precaution.

The best situation is to keep the current situation unchanged. It would be best if Blackbird Heavy Industry did not move, and Gu Hang would not take the initiative to cause trouble. As long as he waited for his mother quietly, negotiated in the star zone, and waited for the arrival of the Star Army, that would be the time to give Blackbird Heavy Industry a fatal blow.

For this reason, Gu Hang did not even use orbital bombing, just to avoid Blackbird overreacting.

But it was obvious that Blackbird did not want to give him this chance again.

The more than ten demon hunters made a lot of noise in Blackbird City. Of course, this allowed Gu Hang to know important information, but Blackbird Heavy Industry obviously knew that the matter was exposed.

The preemptive Blackbird has begun to mobilize.

This information came from the west of the continent. The Alliance has deployed a new demon hunter team and more than two hundred special intelligence personnel to the west of the continent.

Blackbird City is not easy to enter, and it is a life-threatening situation to go there. Moreover, after the incident of Elan Bird and others, the defense will definitely be more stringent. However, it is relatively less dangerous to deploy intelligence stations outside Blackbird City and in the thousands of square kilometers of land in the west of the continent, in those peripheral settlements.

It was those intelligence stations that discovered that Blackbird Heavy Industries was abnormally mobilizing personnel and deploying troops.

They saw the large-scale gathering and flow of materials within the jurisdiction of Blackbird Heavy Industries; they saw the flow of personnel.

And if these are just warnings, they even saw the mobilization of the army.

Drones as small as the size of a palm and as large as a car; mechanical dogs with light firepower platforms that can rotate 360 degrees on their backs; a large number of combat soldiers composed of modified humans; countless “Challenger” tanks…

You don’t have to enter Blackbird City to see all of these, you can see them outside.

Relevant intelligence was sent back one after another urgently.

Blackbird has moved, so how can the Alliance not move?

The order given by Gu Hang is to keep the enemy out.

If the war can’t be dragged on, then fight; but it can’t be fought on the land of the Alliance. If the war spreads to the Central Bank Province, especially near the twin cities of Fuxing and Weixing, it would be unacceptable.

The Western Desert area is a good choice for the scheduled battlefield. The area is vast and sparsely populated. Most of the land is desert. The few valuable oases are mainly planted in underground factories, which are suitable for war. They are not afraid of destroying the land.

It was because of the movement of the blackbird that the alliance hurriedly made the decision to mobilize the army and advance westward. At least, the defense line should be pushed to a thousand kilometers away and built in the desert area.

However, the form of war still came in a way that no one expected, at a faster and more unexpected speed.

…

Three days later, sitting in the office, I just called my mother again and exchanged the political mediation situation in the star zone. I learned that the Fachers family was indeed anxious and had decided to mobilize their relationship with the Dragon Eagle 3rd Legion stationed in the Pegasus star zone to separate a part of the Star Realm Army that was originally to be sent to Koroga 3 to come to the Wrathful Star.

The specific number is still under discussion, the method of force delivery is still under discussion, who will bear the delivery cost is also under discussion, how to make the Imperial Navy not too sensitive is also under discussion…

Gu Hang urged, the battle is about to start, Gu Hang needs the troops of the Star Army to be in place as soon as possible.

Just when he hung up the phone, Gu Hang heard a piercing alarm, which rang sharply above Fuxing City.

His face suddenly became ugly.

The guards outside almost broke into his office.

“Governor! Level 1 alarm! Our intelligence personnel have found a missile silo in the west of the continent! Missiles have been launched to the east!”

“When did it happen?”

“Just now! According to the time, it has been fifteen minutes since the missile was launched!”

It did not say how many missiles there were, the power of the missiles, or where they would hit, or whether they could hit Fuxing City.

However, Gu Hang’s heart still sounded a fierce alarm.

How could it not hit? Otherwise, is the Blackbird doing this to set off fireworks?

That is obviously impossible.

“Governor, quickly go to the air defense…”

“No.”

Gu Hang rejected the guard’s request and left the office immediately. The power of psychic energy lifted him up into the air, and he looked to the west.

He didn’t need to hide in the air-raid shelter, as missiles would not kill him.

But the residents of the alliance and the factories of the alliance could not.

After he took off, he did see missiles with long tails of flames whizzing in the clear sky.

At the same time, many red lights were fired far away. Some

of these red beams came from Fuxing City, and some came from Weixing City.

No sound could be heard, but in Gu Hang’s field of vision, he could see that most of the missiles that broke through the clear sky were hit by red beams in mid-air and exploded in mid-air.

He was more or less relieved.

These red beams come from the [Reflector Laser Cannon], which is essentially an anti-aircraft firepower. The most common uses are two: it can be placed on the surface for air defense and can be used for long-range anti-orbital bombardment; it can be used on starships to detonate approaching landing ships, approaching live ammunition firepower, and collide with the energy attacks launched by enemy ships. Even if it cannot be intercepted, it can reduce the power of the enemy’s energy attack.

At the beginning, Gu Hang drew the [Reflector] technology. The Alliance also has enough resources and pre-existing technology to carry out large-scale production.

But in the early days, the Alliance did not have a strong demand for [Reflectors]. On the one hand, the Alliance did not have starships, so it did not need to produce hundreds of [Reflectors] on starships at every turn; the enemies that the Alliance had encountered did not have any decent air forces, so naturally they did not need anti-aircraft firepower.

Most of the [Reflectors] produced were castrated versions, which were placed on Lion tanks to reduce size, power, and energy consumption, and served as main or secondary guns.

The production of a full set of [Reflectors], including radar, interception, and servo skull computing and recognition systems, and the final precision interception firepower, was not very large.

In other words, relying on the black box, a complete set of products must be produced once they are produced, and some were made; the mass production line pulled out by the Alliance produced very few of these complete systems.

These produced air defense systems were mainly placed in Fuxing City and Weixing City.

And this arrangement played a huge role at this moment.

There are a total of eleven sets of [Reflectors] in Fuxing City; there are probably more than twenty sets in Weixing City.

The beams of light that were constantly energized intercepted most of the missiles in mid-air.

In the end, only one missile in Fuxing City actually came over the city.

But it didn’t explode.

Gu Hang waved his hand, and the power of psychic energy captured it, crushing it into pieces of iron in mid-air.

But his face was still very heavy.

It was indeed a false alarm in Fuxing City, but…what about other places?

Weixing City didn’t have a top psychic like Gu Hang to provide such a final protection. Although the number of reflector systems was doubled compared to Fuxing City, could they intercept all the missiles?

The situation in Weixing City was still good, with at least more than 20 reflector systems; but what about other places in the alliance?

What about the main forces of the alliance that were gathering and taking action on the front line?

But there was no point in worrying now.

After confirming that there were no more missile attacks from the horizon, Gu Hang slowly lowered his altitude and returned to his office.

Afterwards, relevant intelligence gathered in his office like snowflakes.

The first thing to report was the air defense systems of Fuxing City and Weixing City.

The air defense systems of these two places detected a total of 45 missiles. Fifteen were aimed at Fuxing City, and thirty were aimed at Weixing City. Fourteen missiles were intercepted in Fuxing City, and one disappeared (it was crushed by Gu Hang); twenty-nine missiles were intercepted in Weixing City, and one exploded in a factory, destroying an alloy plastic steel smelting production line, killing seven people and injuring more than thirty people. The injured have all been sent to the hospital, and personnel have been arranged to repair the damaged factory.

The second intelligence came from the troops assembled on the front line.

At least fifty missiles were launched at them.

But the front-line troops also have their own air defense firepower.

Among the [Fifth Generation ‘Walker’ Series Armored Vehicles] that Gu Hang had previously extracted, although the most produced ones are the ‘Forward’ armored personnel carriers and the ‘Wanderer’ infantry fighting vehicles, there are also ‘Defender’ series air defense vehicles in this series.

The alliance has been producing related equipment, and almost every division is equipped with an air defense company or battalion.

These field anti-aircraft vehicles are equipped with live anti-aircraft guns, which are not as accurate as the [Reflector], and there is no servo skull for auxiliary calculation, so the efficiency of interception is greatly reduced.

But the number of anti-aircraft vehicles equipped by those field armies is still acceptable.

Among the fifty missiles, thirty-eight were intercepted; the remaining ones, although they exploded, did not hit the targets with the most dense personnel and equipment at once.

The specific casualty report has not yet come out, but the total should not exceed 150 people.

At this point, Gu Hang was already a little heartbroken.

But he knew that the big one was not coming.

Sure enough, after waiting for a while, two more cities in the alliance sent news.

Beigu City in Beiqinggu Province was also attacked by missiles. Ten missiles exploded in Beigu City, causing no less than 500 casualties, completely destroying a food processing plant and a food warehouse, and the specific material losses have not yet been counted.

In addition, the former Garbage Town, now the Tower City, was also attacked. Fifteen missiles destroyed the city government of Gaota City, causing direct casualties of no less than 500 people. They also blew up a waste energy storm collection plant, causing a secondary explosion. The related secondary explosion caused 80% of the staff in that factory to lose contact, which was about a thousand people.

Looking at the gathered intelligence, Gu Hang’s face was so dark that ink was about to drip out.

The Blackbird heavy tool is equipped with intercontinental strike capability. It can directly deliver long-range missiles at a distance of 10,000 to 20,000 kilometers and carry out accurate strikes. This is something he didn’t expect.

Although it seems that the power of these missiles is not too great, and is even weaker than the “scalpel” missile that Gu Hang had seen before, this matter itself is very bad.

The loss of these 120 intercontinental missiles is still secondary. The most terrible thing is that the alliance has exposed a weakness: no counterattack capability!

The alliance does not even have intercontinental strike means!

And due to previous negligence, the alliance’s air defense system is not well built.

Gaota City and Beigu City, a total of 2,000 casualties!

Although they are all civilians, they are all important productive forces.

Not to mention that factories and warehouses were destroyed, and the loss of materials

and means of production is difficult to count in a short time. Fortunately, Fuxing City and Weixing City have them, otherwise, if all the 45 missiles that hit these two cities were to explode, the result would be unimaginable. The population density and industrial importance of these two places are much higher than those of Beigu City and Gaota City!

What made Gu Hang even more panic was that he didn’t know how strong the delivery capability of the Blackbird’s intercontinental missiles was.

Can they only deliver these 120 missiles at a time? How many intercontinental missiles do they have in reserve? Was this attack a sudden full-force strike, or was it just a test? Do they have a “big guy” that is much stronger than these 120 missiles?

These unknowns made him, the ruler, panic.

But although he was panicked, he was not panicked in action.

He immediately dialed the call with the Blade Tiger.

“Commander Ye Lixia, I hope you will launch an all-out orbital strike on Blackbird City right away, and don’t hold back at all!”
