Six o'clock in the morning on December 28th.

The Fourth Fleet's base has completed the dismantling of various space fortifications and officially set off for the coordinates designated by the Zhengfeng Army Command.

Because the Zhengfeng Army warships are conducting inspections, there is no need for reconnaissance ships to conduct risk inspections first.

All small and medium-sized warships entered the mother ship, and large warships set off in batches.

With just one space jump, you can reach the designated coordinates and stay there.

The large battleship No. 4 originally had more than 110,000 officers and crew members, but only a little over 50,000 are left.

Whether they were operators, logistics personnel, or combat personnel, more than half could not withstand Li Feng's pressure and chose to transfer from the No. 4 large battleship through various relationships.

Since the special operations fleet has not yet recruited soldiers from abroad, there will be no new recruits for the No. 4 large battleship.

February 21021, Year 1 of the Federation Calendar.

This is a day that the entire human federation is paying attention to.

After ten thousand years, the human race restarted its expansion.

The Wind-Conquering Army, consisting of twenty large fleets, officially set out, crossing the border star field and entering the Wind Rat Clan's sphere of influence under the banner of overthrowing the tyranny of the Wind Rat Clan and saving ordinary Wind Rat Clan members.

……

The Fourth Special Operations Fleet, the mothership, in the large conference room.

More than a thousand captains of large, medium and small warships were present.

Mark's pre-war combat meeting this time was not held in the form of a virtual meeting like the last time.

Instead, all captains were required to personally go to the mother ship to participate.

There is actually no difference or impact between the two on the content of the meeting.

The real difference lies in whether the fleet captain's prestige is strong or weak.

It was precisely in order to demonstrate and consolidate his authority that Mark ordered all captains to attend the meeting in person.

I didn't do this last time I participated in the actual combat confrontation between the four races, simply because I didn't have enough prestige. Most captains would probably just slap me in the face and find various reasons to refuse to be there in person.

This order was issued this time because the matter was of great importance. Most captains did not have the courage to cause any trouble at such a critical moment as the day when the human race restarted its expansion.

The reason why I say most of them, rather than all of them.

The reason is that many people present thought that Li Feng would be an exception.

In fact, Li Feng is indeed an exception.

In his eyes, all kinds of military regulations and unspoken rules can be divided into only two types.

One type is that he can’t even keep his military position or rank.

The other type is that his military position and rank are not affected.

He basically ignored the latter.

At this critical moment when the human race is restarting its expansion, the unspoken rule that no trouble can be caused is the type that can be ignored.

However, Li Feng did not make this exception.

If someone else really wasn't present, he wouldn't even mind doing Mark a favor and inviting them to the mothership to attend the pre-war meeting.

Overthrowing Mark and replacing him is one thing, but he will repay Mark no matter how much favor he owes him.

In interpersonal relationships, face is given to each other.

This is especially true in the military.

Personal credit is even more important than in the business world.

In fact, this was the main reason why Albert dared to withstand the family pressure, take huge risks and costs, and give him the benefits first without even a verbal promise from him.

It's a bet that he still has potential for improvement and that he has clear grudges.

After a brief opening speech, Mark went straight to the point and asked the intelligent computer to distribute a piece of information to each person, introducing the strategic thinking of the Zhengfeng Army and the arrangements for the Fourth Special Warfare Fleet.

To put it simply, the strategic thinking of the Zhengfeng Army is a carpet-style sweep.

Starting from the edge where the two forces intersect, they extended the battle line and swept all the way.

The advantage is that the battle line is long enough, and with the advantage of stronger ultra-long-range mobility, the entire wind rat tribe can be conquered in a shorter time.

Moreover, the conquered star field can gradually eliminate hidden space cracks, set up monitoring networks, and even carry out large-scale immigration to completely integrate and occupy this star field.

The disadvantage is that the battle line is too long. If there are hidden space cracks that are not detected, and the major forces of the Wind Rat Clan form an alliance, and other races secretly help, it is easy to be frequently attacked and consumed by small-scale attacks.

It is even possible that the Wind Rat Alliance will launch a large-scale attack on a certain section of the battle line.

The special operations fleet is under the Special Operations Bureau, but the Zhengfeng Army Command has now obtained temporary command of the special operations fleet.

According to the plan of the Zhengfeng Army Command, the four special operations fleets are still in the running-in and tempering period.

For the time being, the four special operations fleets will be used as four independent small fleets ranked in the top four in overall strength.

Four special operations fleets will also participate in the vanguard's first round of attack.

The captains of the four special operations fleets all participated in the pre-war meeting of the Vanguard Army and received a number of star field targets provided by the Vanguard Army.

Selection is based on the fleet's comprehensive score ranking.

I chose the highest difficulty level.

"The star fields I chose are F0176 and F0177!"

In front of Mark, a virtual three-dimensional map of the star field appeared:

“The star field our fleet is responsible for has a total of 182 life planets, all belonging to the same Wind Rat Clan faction.

According to information provided by the command center, the leader of this faction has reached level 57. Furthermore, there are five high-level Wind Rat Tribe members who have achieved their second round of life evolution and are above level 50.

After a pause, Mark's eyes swept across the faces of the captains: "My plan is to divide the troops into ten groups. The mothership and large frigates will form one group, responsible for the area where the main planet is located. The remaining nine large warships will each form one group, responsible for an area.

After studying the specific areas of responsibility, I will notify all major warships.

To prevent attacks, small and medium-sized warships are temporarily assigned to different routes to coordinate operations. The captains of the large warships in each route have temporary command and dispatch authority.

drop by drop...

Most of the captains pressed the speech request button on the armrest without hesitation.

Each of them looked at Mark with cold eyes.

Especially the captains of small and medium-sized warships.

If Mark was close by, they would definitely spit directly on his face.

The reason is simple. Mark is completely a one-man show.

The battle plan formulation meeting directly turned into a battle plan notification meeting.

Any one of the captains present is one in a million among officers of the same rank in the military.

Even if the plan is perfect, it will not tolerate Captain Mark taking full control of the plan.

Not to mention, the plan itself made the captains dissatisfied.

The captain of a large battleship would rather be in charge of the area on the main planet.

Because military merit is higher.

The captains of small and medium-sized warships were extremely dissatisfied with the loss of their independence and had to be commanded and mobilized by the captains of large warships, becoming vassals of the large warships.

Mark's move was obviously intended to deliberately divert conflicts and provoke conflicts of interest between the captains of large warships and the captains of small and medium-sized warships.

This way, not only would the pressure on him as a fleet captain be greatly reduced, but he would also be able to take advantage of the infighting among the captains to recruit and win over a group of them.

Everyone is smart, so how could they let him get what he wants?

Mark's gaze shifted to Li Feng in the middle of the first row, and he blinked.

Li Feng was calm and ignored it.

Mark blinked several times.

Only then was Li Feng satisfied.

He served as the captain of an independent reconnaissance ship and had never participated in multi-ship operations or related meetings, nor had he learned about the rules in this regard.

Mark also did not communicate with him in advance before the meeting.

I have no idea what Mark's flirting means.

However, the general meaning can still be guessed.

It's nothing more than asking him to come out and suppress the whole audience, and blinking once means promising to give him benefits.

Blinking several times should greatly increase the benefits.

Li Feng casually tapped the button on the armrest.

"Captain Li, if you have any comments, please speak up!"

Mark chose Li Feng first.

Li Feng stood up, took out the spirit sword from his storage ring, turned around and looked at the rows of captains behind him:

"I personally think the captain's plan is perfect. There's no need to waste any more time discussing it."

Arrogant, presumptuous, and overbearing.

hum...

The entire conference room suddenly became noisy.

All the captains had their eyes wide open in anger.

Li Feng's eyes slowly swept through the crowd.

Wherever you sweep, the place becomes quiet.

When the entire conference room was completely silent, Mark spoke at the right time: "Well, does anyone have a different objection?"

The captains gnashed their teeth in hatred, but they all resisted the urge to press the button to request to speak.

They were not afraid of Mark, but they were somewhat afraid of Li Feng, who was incredibly strong and dared to kill anyone if they disagreed with him.

No one wanted to be the first to take action and see if Li Feng had the courage to kill someone in the conference room.

Today, let’s give him a little face and see how long he can be so arrogant!

"Since no one objects, let's proceed according to this plan!"

After waiting for a few seconds and making sure no one applied to speak, Mark announced in a clear and concise manner that the battle plan formulation meeting had concluded successfully.
