Three days ago

Solar system border, medium-sized outpost No. 8 of the Thirteenth Independence Fleet

Originally, Kita-woo had no idea to set up an outpost, but when Yamato left, Okita Shisan learned about his original plan to set up a patrol fleet in the following days, and decided to build multiple outposts around the entire solar system to prevent the Gatlantis from raiding.

For this medium-sized outpost, it adopts a disc-type structure, similar to the old space station, and can dock a certain number of warships, complete internal living facilities, and store resources that can provide hundreds of people with a year of living. Considering that continuous defense replacement will cause unnecessary losses, it is stipulated that each patrol fleet stays here for at least three weeks, and then the next patrol fleet will be arranged on the earth to take over their work.

Due to the previous experience of the invasion of the Gatlantis, the outpost has installed equipment for stabilizing hyperspace communication, and the observations are directly synchronized to the earth, which can greatly reduce the error

Moreover, with each outpost as the center, a large number of devices blocking warp are arranged near a radius of 100,000 kilometers. Even if Gatlantis attacks, it is likely to be blocked nearby.

"Patrol Fleet No. 9, thank you for your hard work. Patrol Fleet No. 10 will arrive at your side in two hours. After the handover procedure is completed, you can come back for vacation and take the fixed route No. 4."

"We will keep a close eye on the last two hours!"

The remaining Gatlantis warship groups near the Kuiper Belt have basically not resisted recently, and the cleaning work is undertaken by the defense forces. During this period, Maliu's daily work is to check the information sent from various outposts in the command center, and analyze with the command center whether there are signs of invasion of Gatlantis or other unknown civilizations.

"Commander Maliu, the No. 3 Science Observatory sent a message that there are abnormal gravitational fluctuations near Uranus."

"Graining fluctuations? What does the technical department say? Is it a celestial phenomenon or an artificial cause?"

"It hasn't been sent yet, they are resolving"

"Help me connect to the observation station"

"yes!"

A few minutes later

"Hello Commander Mary"

"Professor Lin, your observatory just sent a report on gravitational anomalies. What is this happening?"

"That's right. We can currently rule out the problem of the planet itself. The defense army's fleet does not operate in this area. We divide it..."

The communication interface was suddenly interrupted, and then it was shown to the staff that the signal from the No. 3 Science Observatory suddenly disappeared. Along with the physical reaction, Maliu suddenly realized something

"No, they bypassed..."

"The medium outpost No. 8 sent an emergency communication! They were attacked by a large number of Catlantis warships, with a huge number, so please support!"

"The communication of the medium outpost No. 12 was interrupted, and the physical reaction disappeared!"

“Outpost 19, 22, 36 was attacked, and the report was sent to request support!”

Maru was stunned. Ten minutes ago, everything was normal. Now the situation suddenly changed. The Gatlantis only arranged a large number of warships to invade the solar system in just a few minutes. Realizing that the matter was serious, she immediately contacted the Defense Command.

"In an emergency, I need to connect with Commander Okina"

"Wait! Commander Okita is conducting an emergency meeting!"

In fact, the defense army's reaction was similar. The sudden attack caught them off guard, and the senior management also held an emergency meeting to discuss countermeasures.

"At present, judging from the messages sent back by patrol fleets, the Gatlantis fleet has sent about 5 million warships, and the outer edge of the solar system is basically surrounded by them."

"Is this going to trap us to death? Let the regular fleet support you! The opponent's target is the earth, and we can't be attacked anymore!"

"Calm down, the other party has a fleet of 5 million. If we just be reckless, we will only lose more warships."

"Then what should you do? The representative of Wuxiao District, are you waiting for the enemy to attack the earth? We will never surrender."

“…”

Representatives from several other regions have already started to quarrel, while Okita Thomas, Fujido Hirakuro and Sanada Shiro began to discuss countermeasures.

"At present, there are about 50,000 warships that the defense army can fight at any time. It is indeed difficult for us to resist Gatlantis in this amount. The enemy is thunderous..."

At this moment, a communication suddenly inserted, forcibly interrupting their conversation.

"Commander Okina, I am Maru, the defense army should also receive news of the attack on Gatlantis, right?"

“It’s true”

"Just just now, we sent a report of gravitational abnormality at the observatory set up by Uranus and suddenly interrupted communication. We judged that the Gatlantis fleet should have forcibly invaded the interior of the solar system and sent a fleet to fight."

The Thirteenth Independent Fleet is now in a cooperative relationship with the Defense Forces, so the news on both sides is basically interoperable. In an emergency, there are insiders who can contact us.

"I understand, the defense forces will also send a fleet to fight. It is expected that the confluence will be carried out at 1,200, and the command of the joint fleet will be left to the independent fleet."

"Received, thank you, Commander Okita"

After the communication, after a brief silence, Okina Shisan gently patted the table, put on his military cap and stood up, his eyes firm.

"Okita?"

"Captain Fujido, can you give me the command of the fleet?"

"Do you want to...!"

Okita Shisan nodded. Although he was old, he thought he could not retire or stay in the back.

What's more, three years ago, he was the captain of the Yamato to save the earth from danger, and as the "hero captain" in the outside world, he had no reason to retreat.

"I understand. The command of the Galaxy and the fleet is given to you, and I will explain it to these representatives."

"Galaxy? Didn't your daughter serve on that ship?"

"Yes, I believe her ability can definitely assist you well. Please, Okita!"

"Um"

Earth time 23 April 2202, at 1040, the emergency meeting ended, and all regions agreed to counterattack, and the Earth officially declared war on Gatlantis.

1100 o'clock, the Embassy of Gamyras on the Moon

"Sir Heath, Gatlantis has attacked the solar system in full swing. Are we..."

After the declaration of war on Earth, Ambassador Barre knew about this matter immediately and then reported it to Gamyras's home star.

Now a large number of Gamyras immigrants have lived in the solar system, and evacuation is also very troublesome now. Considering a series of problems, Heath can only let Ambassador Barre contact the Earth Defense Forces. The Gamyras army stationed in the solar system will also join the battle, and he will later go from the Gamyras fleet closest to the solar system to reinforcing the Gamyras fleet to the nearest the solar system to the reinforcements.

After obtaining permission, Ambassador Barre rushed from the moon to the headquarters of the Earth Defense Forces, and happened to run into Shiro Sanada who was commanding the transport of supplies.

"Mr. Sanada, I want to meet Commander Okita, where is he?"

"He is preparing to go to the Galaxy to take over command. Is there anything?"

"Is he going to go into battle in person?! This is too messy"

After saying that, Shiro Sanada glanced at him, then shook his head

"It is actually a luxury to keep people rational."

At 1200 o'clock, the defense fleet stationed at the Mars base officially met with the squadron sent by the 13th Independent Fleet from Earth, confirmed the command authority, and reorganized the formation and immediately warp to go to the vicinity of Uranus to fight.

In Jupiter's orbit

"Received! I will lead the fleet to support the solar system border immediately, please rest assured!"

Shannan Xiu, who was stationed here, also received an order from the headquarters. Now the entire fleet of the defense army has been mobilized. The task received from Okita Shisan is to support the border patrol fleet first, and then he will send a new fleet to Shannan Xiu for command.

Since 1400 o'clock, a large number of warships have taken off from the time fault factory, and the new defense satellite that has just been arranged not long ago has also entered operation.

The surface of the earth, various regions reopened the refuges during the last war. After the defense army announced the war, experienced people immediately packed their bags and entered the refuge. Within a few hours, the entire city was empty.

At 1600 o'clock, the negotiations with Gatlantis ended in failure, and the defense army officially confirmed that Uranus had been occupied by Gatlantis.

Neptune and the bases near Pluto have lost contact, and the hope of rescue is slim. The first shot of the counterattack has officially started. The large ship hub station originally expected to be built near Uranus has instantly become a battlefield.

Due to the short time, a large number of meteorological and thunders cannot be arranged on the earth, and Gatlantis also has a method for corresponding meteorological and thunders, which greatly increases the difficulty of combat. In less than an hour, the earth will lose more than two thousand warships of various types.

Under the attack of a group of warships like the Sea of ​​Gatlantis, the earth has no advantage at all. Although it will not be completely destroyed at the first time, it can only defend itself and cannot find a chance to counterattack.

At 0200 on April 24, the number of Gatlantis fleets surrounding the solar system had reached about 6 million. The patrol fleet suffered heavy losses and was forced to abandon various outposts and retreat. When the earth officially learned the news, two or three hours had passed, one step closer to their invasion of the earth.

April 24 0800

"Commander Okina, call the Yamato back now, with us..."

“…”

Okita Shisa also knew that this time Gatlantis' attack was not of the same level as before Gamyras. They had no way to deal with the opponent's ships and seas. They could only fire the wave guns at a long distance before attacking. However, if a group was eliminated, more warships would be added.

"Let them come back"

"What?"

"This time, it is probably the biggest threat in the history of our earth."

Okita Thiran said this, and Shiro Sanada immediately sent the message through the super-time communication device, but...

White Comet

"Great Emperor, we intercepted a rescue signal sent by the Earth to Theresa Star"

"Oh? Are they going to call the Yamato back?"

Emperor Zoda hit the handrail of the throne, and a slight curve was opened on the corner of his mouth. He thought of a plan and pointed his finger at the screen ahead.

"Send it out"

“Hey?”

"Isn't it more interesting to let Yamato come back and witness the earth being destroyed by us like ants, so that they can realize that their weakness and powerlessness are more interesting? Hum..."
