Two minutes before the attack.
Nonar United Kingdom's third largest Administrative Star, military Space Port, a certain observation platform.
The slightly bald Observer, occasionally glancing up at the fixed screen that embodied his job, already used to 'no anomalies in the airspace,' continued smiling while looking at the hair growth ad in his hand.
The 'plastic' cup beside him emitted a wisp of smoke, and the Observer elegantly pinched the handle of the cup, taking a light sip before sighing softly.
The gap between technological advancements and ordinary people is always a chasm called money.
Who would have thought, in his father's generation, it was still 'free hair transplants with skincare' at men's grooming salons, but with the latest hair transplant technology upgrades, it has become unattainable again.
The Observer clicked his tongue lightly, a bit of sentiment in his eyes.
The work now is getting harder and harder, especially this job, with high radiation and high risk. When others get promotions, he congratulates; when others take vacations, he works overtime. His pension is halved, and maternity insurance isn't fully covered. Thinking of striking in protest, he would receive direct warnings from the military police.
The Observer had no interest in the so-called war breaking out on the front lines.
What difference does it make if they win?
Going to someone else's territory to fight a war that brings no benefits to one's own citizens, what's the point of that?
Besides, their army last time brought nothing but a humiliating defeat.
Beep, beep, beep beep beep beep...
The Observer looked up at the display in front of him, where strange fluctuations appeared on the screen, and the space expansion index suddenly turned red.
Outside the porthole, a violent white light exploded, and an ion beam appeared out of nowhere, filling the Observer's eyes.
'Ah, this figure indicates someone has warped at close range.'
Yang Ming gazed at the planet outside the porthole.
The old-fashioned military Space Port, without activating the protective energy shield, was directly ignited into an energy reaction by the ion beam, with blazing white spheres rapidly expanding.
Dozens of small warships inside the Space Port couldn't make any attempts to escape before the ion beams of corresponding numbers suddenly erupted and overwhelmed them.
He raised his hand, pressing a few virtual buttons, and dozens of ships that had just finished warping pressed directly towards the planet's low orbit, forcing toward the surface cities.
The Space Port's wreckage turned into a giant fireball, beginning to slowly fall toward the surface of the planet.
The piercing sound of the air raid alarm, transmitted through headphones, reached Yang Ming's ears.
"Report! Twelve medium-sized warships detected at the preset target point! They are urgently launching from the ground."
Yang Ming said, "Squads one and two, eliminate them as fast as possible. Squad three, attack the cities below, destroy landmark buildings, then immediately withdraw from the atmosphere!"
The Mechanical Thought Body reacted extremely quickly. Just as Yang Ming's orders were given, the fleet had already divided forces.
The people on the ground only needed to look up to see the brief yet intense firefight erupting in near space.
The sudden Wind fleet bombarded their Space Port, easily destroying the emergency defense fleet hidden on the ground. Then, ten or more ships discharged their Main Cannons downward, firing two rounds at the ground before swiftly withdrawing.
The ground was thrown into great chaos.
Yang Ming looked at the screen, at those humans swallowed by the spilling energy, expressionless, but couldn't help but sigh lightly.
This feeling was completely different from killing insects.
War is a clash of two opposing stances, leaving no room for the slightest mercy towards the enemy, or it would be a betrayal of one's own people.
"Accelerate retreat."
Yang Ming advised, but the speed of each squad did not increase much.
The Mechanical Thought Bodies had already pushed the ships' performance to the limit.
As the fleet used the comprehensive simulated gravity field to neutralize the planet's gravity, completing the warp in the artificially created gravity stable zone, the falling military Space Port crashed at the city's edge, raising boundless dust.
Meanwhile, the Nonar United Kingdom was in complete shock.
The Wind Empire's 'hundred ship' fleet directly invaded their territory, attacked the surface of their third largest Administrative Star, easily destroyed their Space Port and dozens of ships with a surprise attack, causing tens of thousands of military and civilian casualties, then left at will.
The Nonar United Kingdom hadn't even issued a denunciation statement when Wind Empire's Emperor Edwan already made a public statement on the Milky Way's interstellar network.
Due to the Nonar United Kingdom invading the Wind Empire twice, attempting to destroy the Wind political system and enslave the Wind citizens, the Wind Empire has officially launched a self-defense retaliatory war against the Nonar United Kingdom.
During this self-defense retaliatory war, Wind cannot guarantee the life safety of the Nonar United Kingdom's citizens.
All consequences should be borne by the arrogant and overbearing Nonar United Kingdom.
The Wind Empire is merely conducting a defensive attack for self-protection! ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novęlfire.net
According to the suzerain treaty between the Wind Empire and the Sherman Empire, the Wind Empire retains the right to request assistance and support from the Sherman Empire.
Wind's preemptive move made the subsequent statement by the Nonar United Kingdom appear very weak.
The news that the Sherman Empire might participate in the war also caused a nationwide panic in the Nonar United Kingdom.
Most people are only restricted to the war from a year ago in terms of Wind's strength;
But everyone has a basic concept of the Sherman Empire's military prowess — the evil Empire is Galaxy undefeated!
