Time: June 20, 2024.
At this time, fifteen days have passed since the series of Mind control events hosted by Yuri·Marin.
All the UNSC gathered in Solar System, under Umbrella's coercion and inducement, signed Confidentiality Agreement to ensure that they would not be controlled or influenced by their minds.
Within the UNSC, from senior officials and generals to the army, Marine Corps and ordinary staff at the grassroots level, they can directly follow Umbrella's command after signing Confidentiality Agreement, and no longer need to communicate through a cumbersome and bloated bureaucratic system.
At the same time, Artificial Intelligence, led by Tina, analyzed the data of the Yuri battleship and used the authority granted by the UNSC to conduct quantum screening of all colonies.
On June 6, 2024, the second day after the "Naval War" broke out, Tina and other Artificial Intelligence finally locked onto a colonial star system, believing it to be the base of Yuri Marin.
This star system is about 10,000 light-years away from Solar System. It belongs to Distant Colony on the edge of human territory and is named the 'Hozette-4' galaxy.
This galaxy is also a colonial galaxy developed by Hozette Corporation in cooperation with the UNSC during the first wave of colonization, so it is named Hozette-4.
The composition of the Hozette-4 galaxy is relatively similar to that of Solar System, with a star 1.5 times larger than the sun and a total of seven large planets.
The first five are Earth-like Planet, and the outer two are Giant Gas Planet. The fourth one, Earth-like Planet, is in the habitable zone of the star system. This Earth-like Planet is named Hozette-4d.
The mass, density, diameter and other data of the planet Hozette-4d are similar to those of the Earth, and the rotation of the Hozette-4 star is 340 Earth days, with one rotation taking about 27 hours.
Hozette-4d also has strong geological activities, which gives it a strong enough protective magnetic field and a thick atmosphere.
It also has oceans and continents, as well as a wide variety of low-intelligent protozoa.
Moreover, the atmospheric composition and pressure are relatively friendly to humans. Even without wearing breathing equipment, ordinary humans without any training can move and breathe freely on the surface of Hozette-4d.
Of course, some of the original viruses and bacteria on Hozette-4b are also threatening to humans.
Therefore, the UNSC research team has developed corresponding vaccines for these original viruses and bacteria that are harmful to humans.
Therefore, Hozette-4d belongs to the twenty-seven colonial galaxies, including Reach, that can be colonized without building a dome.
Now, according to various data and intelligence, it is confirmed that it was Yuri Marin who secretly presided over the establishment of Hozette-4.
When Tina and Artificial Intelligence obtained UNSC authority and then conducted a comprehensive quantum screening, only the Hozette-4 galaxy had extreme anomalies.
And because the population of planet Hozette-4b has exceeded 50 million, the Astartes deployed on the planet is a company with a population of 120 people.
But Tina and other Artificial Intelligence discovered that this Astartes company seemed to have been besieged by four local UNSC garrison troops as well as a large army secretly cultivated by Yuri as early as a year ago.
The number of people faced by this Astartes company is about 110,000. There are only two Mammoths and dozens of Crucio Tank ground heavy weapons, and the air units are only dozens of Pelicans and two Vulture support boats.
But...
According to the quantum screening findings of Tina and other Artificial Intelligence, even though this Astartes company faced an absolute disadvantage, it still fought a desperate battle with the forces of the four UNSC armies and the army to which Yuri belonged.
Although these one hundred and twenty Astartes could not escape the fate of death in the end, before the last Astartes fell, UNSC and Yuri's side also suffered great losses. About 30,000 people died under this Astartes and Boltgun.
The reason why this situation occurs is because the right to use the Quantum Communication device is in the hands of the local UNSC.
After learning about the tragic situation of this Astartes company, William, who had returned to Solar System, confirmed his determination to have all UNSC sign Confidentiality Agreement.
Subsequently, under the strict request of William, Wang Zhaofeng led Engineering Team to work overload and carry out emergency repairs to the damaged warship.
Finally, at 14:14 on June 20th of Hafa Time, all UNSC and Umbrella battleships were finally renovated.
And the number of warships and troops concentrated in Solar System at this time has reached the peak since humans entered Interstellar Age.
The number of UNSC warships of various types is 1,474. The total number of Combat Troops, engineering team, ground crew and crew members on board the ship is approximately 7.2 million.
As for Umbrella, they also gathered numbers 0, 1, 2, 4, 5 and Containment Fleet.
Among them, Third Fleet followed the order of William and stayed on Reach.
Astartes, which was originally deployed in various human colonies, also returned to Solar System within these fifteen days.
Such large-scale warships and battle groups are moored around the dock, undergoing final supplies and inspections.
Just like the original intention of building the dock, it was an outpost prepared for large-scale expeditions by humans.
The target of Umbrella and the UNSC's expedition this time is Yuri Marin's base, the Hozette-4 system.
In the dock, there is a super large hangar that can accommodate seventy divine bodies or four frigates.
At this time, in addition to a large number of various upgraded models of F-X, B-65, Pelican and other aircraft, the hangar was filled with a large number of fully armed UNSC and Umbrella officers.
The ranks of these officers range from sergeant to colonel.
In the center of the hangar is a large platform lift used for loading ammunition for the body or frigate.
The elevator rose to a height of about thirty meters above the deck, enough for the officers in the hangar to see.
Standing on the elevator platform were senior generals and school officers from the UNSC and Umbrella, including Andre and Mike.
Of course, William wearing Umbrella President Commander's Uniform is also indispensable.
"Everyone!" William said to all the officers present using the wireless microphone clipped to his collar:
"Soon, we will go to the Hozette-4 galaxy 10,000 light-years away from Solar System to seek revenge on Yuri Marin who is hiding on the Hozette-4d planet!
Because of his selfish desire to dominate mankind, he led to the casualties of hundreds of thousands of outstanding soldiers, and also caused major impacts on tens of millions or hundreds of millions of people.
We humans have finally overcome the economic impact caused by Titan Giant Beast, but because of this Yuri·Marin, we have once again fallen into stagnation and turmoil.
This time, since the first and second World War, warriors of all colors, beliefs, and nationalities have gathered together again in order to launch a Vengeance Expedition.
We must make that Yuri Marin pay the price he deserves!"
"Ugh!!!"
After listening to William's mobilization speech, the tens of thousands of officers present responded loudly.
