Containment Control Starts With the Umbrella

Battlegroup?

Gabriel was taken aback and said, Boss, what does war group mean?

Hehe. William waved his hands lightly with a smile on his face, walked towards the building of the Security Bureau, and said softly to everyone:

Take me to meet those elites first, let's talk about the construction of the battle group while walking.

Yes, boss.

Hearing this, everyone present agreed.

And Macha, Gabriel and others also consciously led the way, leading William to the detention area in the Security Bureau to meet the elites who had been stripped of their armor.

period.

With his hands behind his back, William continued to say to Matcha, Gabriel and the others with a kind smile:

Captain Macha, you and your crew members, the pilots of the flight formation, and the pilots of the mobile suits all surprised me.

The entire ship of your Observer cooperated very well, otherwise it would not be possible to fight a battle that will be recorded in the annals of history.

Especially you, Captain Matcha.

Thanks to your bold and decisive command, we have first-hand information on dealing with Covenant warships.

This... Hearing William's praise, Macha said modestly with some embarrassment:

Boss, this is what I should do.

There's no need to be modest. William smiled lightly, and then explained the concept of the 'Battle Group' to Macha, Gabriel and the others:

It's also because of the excellent performance of your Observer, and the effective counterattack tactics and strategies adopted when fighting against the invasion of alien forces...

Reminds me that it's time to build a 'warband'.

You also know that the Astartes have three legions, numbering around thirteen thousand, under the direct command of me and the five Primarchs.

The remaining Astartes with nearly 7,000 people are deployed in various colonies in the form of squads and companies.

The number of Astartes in some satellite colonies is only a small team of three to six people.

This method can indeed take into account all the colonies, but as our territory continues to expand, the population is increasing

The Astartes, which grew by two thousand people every year, did not seem to be able to guarantee the safety of each colony.

For example, if the three Covenant warships had not first contacted your Harvest planet, they had exchanged fire with an asteroid colony instead.

Then the fate of the asteroid colony may be that the opponent only launches a few main cannon attacks, and the colonists...even the asteroids will be destroyed by them.

Therefore, this kind of garrison plan is indeed feasible in the face of abnormal phenomena, but it will appear powerless in the face of the invasion of alien forces.

In order to cope, I am going to divide all the galaxies in the human territory into dozens of star regions, and each star region will be responsible for the safety of a battle group.

The number of Astartes in each battle group is not less than two hundred, and the number of ground combat troops is not less than 20,000, and the commander-in-chief of the ground forces is a veteran Astartes.

The fleet belonging to the chapter consists of a Phoenix-class aircraft carrier and a battleship, two Roger Young-class and two Paris-class frigates.

Moreover, the commander-in-chief of the fleet is the captain of the aircraft carrier.

The ground forces and the fleet need to work together, and the two sides need to discuss together when they encounter problems, and they cannot be dominated by one person.

Boss... After hearing the explanation given by William, Macha said with some surprise:

You mean, we want to use our Observer as a precedent to create the first battle group?

That's right. William didn't deny it: You will be the first battle group.

I will let the shipyards on Reach and Earth build Phoenixes, Battleships, Roger Youngs and Parises for your Chapter.

Construction is expected to be completed by the middle of next year.

Before manning your fleets, you will select sufficient numbers of Astartes, ground forces and crews from within your responsible sector.

As for the name of your chapter, stick to Sergeant Angelos' Blood Ravens.

Blood Ravens...um...

Hearing that William wanted to name the battle group after Blood Raven, Gabriel, who was walking in front, showed an expression of extreme pride and satisfaction.

Also. William added at this time:

Angelos, your rank has been promoted to sergeant, and all surviving Blood Ravens have been promoted to corporal, and you will not be missed in terms of bonuses.

All ground troops, commanders, pilots, drivers and other personnel of the Observer will be promoted and rewarded according to their military merits.

Captain Macha, the signature of the Observer will be transferred to the Phoenix-class aircraft carrier, and your rank will also be promoted to Lieutenant Colonel, in charge of the fleet command of the Blood Ravens Chapter.

how?

This... thank you so much, boss... Matcha said in disbelief.

There is no thanks for this, without your hard work and sacrifice, the lives of Harvest Star and three million humans would have long been gone.

Rewards and promotions are your due.

Yes. Matcha didn't say anything more, but humbly accepted William's kindness.

At this moment, everyone came to the detention area where the elites were held.

Just look at the prison cells made up of iron fences, all the elites who pass the time in different postures, idle and boring.

These elites had been injected with a large amount of sedatives, and Macha and others took advantage of their unconsciousness to remove their armor and tight combat uniforms.

At the same time, they were replaced with orange prison uniforms tailored for them by a local clothing factory.

These elites are either gesturing in the cell, as if they are exercising their fighting skills, or they are chatting with each other Aww.

And ten blood crows equipped with ceramic titanium armor and bolt guns stood in this area, guarding the group of elites who had been imprisoned.

When William and the others came to this area, the movements of the elites just froze, and then continued to do what they were doing.

I didn't expect them to be quite energetic, haha.

After seeing the elite with his own eyes, William couldn't help sighing with the people around him.

Yes, boss, if you use the most vivid words to describe them, it would be 'death to face'. Matcha echoed.

Desperate for face? William asked curiously.

Yes. Gabriel took over the words and said:

In the beginning, they were completely disdainful of our food, and they didn't even drink water, which made us wonder if they didn't eat these things, or didn't need water.

But we still left food and water in their cells, but when the blood crows switched defenses for a few minutes, the dinner plates and water glasses were swept away.

It seems that their diet is similar to ours, and they have to eat when they are not guarded.

As long as we have one of them, they would rather die than eat, which is really a bit too good-looking.

Ok…

William nodded without commenting too much.

Indeed, the race of elites is really a bit 'stunned', and it is indeed a race that wants to save face and suffer.

Okay, Captain Macha, Sergeant Angelos, I will interrogate them next.

There's nothing wrong with having the Master Chief around in terms of safety, so you guys go and get busy. William waved.

Yes, boss. (x2)
