I Really Didn't Mean To Be The Saviour Of The World-Chapter 552 - 362: The True Do-or-Die Battle_1

Chapter 552: Chapter 362: The True Do-or-Die Battle_1

On the outskirts of Oxfordshire, there was a huge square that could accommodate millions of people.

Looking down, there was a sea of densely packed and neatly arranged heads, each pair of eyes full of determination.

Nearly all of the 433 billion mid-to-high-ranking officers of the Human Defense Force were present.

Nora Camp was speaking on the stage, followed by Mr. Green and Neville Brown, and others.

Each person’s speech was quite simple, without lengthy elaborations – just a brief pledge.

Everything that needed to be said had been said long ago.

Harrison Clark’s speech was saved for last.

Originally, he was given the longest time of ten minutes, but when he stood on the stage, he suddenly became taciturn.

He had so much to say, but when it came to actually speaking, he felt that all his words were meaningless.

He simply said a single sentence.

“This is the most prepared battle I’ve ever fought, and I’m confident that I’ll perform better than ever before.”

Thunderous applause erupted from the audience.

“I will not serve as a commander, but I’ll always be at the forefront of the battlefield.”

After speaking, Harrison Clark turned and left the stage.

Behind him, the applause continued for a long time.

Returning to the command shuttle of the Caudron Army Corps, Harrison Clark opened the all-army information system.

What lay before him were some alarming numbers – the current strength of the Human Defense Force.

By now, the Defense Army had completed the deployment of all battleships.

There were 5.6 million new Galaxy Equipment and 6,000 ultra-mobile cubic troop carriers to match them.

Most of these elite forces were assigned to the First Warzone under Nora Camp’s command.

The First Warzone consisted of the Giant Wave Legion, Caudron Army Corps, Long River Legion, and Twin Wood Legion commanded by Needham Brown.

As agreed, when war broke out, Nora Camp would command the entire human army until she made a mistake.

In addition to the Galaxy Equipment, the main combat forces included 30,000 fortress ships, 3.5 million large snowflake field ships, 15 million medium snowflake assault ships, 30 million small conical chase ships, and 1.2 billion high-speed two-person warplanes.

The total number of main combat forces of the Defense Army was 120 billion people.

Harrison Clark had known these figures for a long time, but what truly shocked him was the reserve force that had been added in less than a year.

Two million large modular starships, which had overall performance far inferior to snowflake battleships and were only equivalent to the human main battleships in the previous timeline.

Seven million medium-sized starships.

Twenty million small combat ships.

And three million carrier ships.

Each carrier ship had 2,000 small warplanes.

Humanity had a total of 6 billion small warplanes and 18 billion warplane personnel.

Top-tier fighters who could control Galaxy Battle Suit could form an army on their own, fully unleashing the killing power of the battle suits.

Subsequent, excellent fighters could control specialized equipment such as Titan Defense Armor, Storm Attack Armor, and Southern Wind Battlefield Energy Supply Armor.

Inferior fighters needed partners to operate a warplane in pairs.

As for ordinary people, those awakened with low levels and who had only trained for several months as reserve soldiers had neither tactical operational capabilities nor the accuracy and quantity of brainwave commands that could be supported by awakening. As such, they needed three people to work together to fully utilize the performance of small warplanes.

Each temporary small-scale warplane was operated by three people: one to drive, another to control the energy shield, and the last to attack.

The performance of these small warplanes was roughly equivalent to the triangular conical warplanes in the previous timeline.

In total, the number of reserve force participants stood at 290 billion people.

These reserve soldiers used to be workers, students, and even grassroots scientific researchers.

The youngest was just 12 years old, and the oldest was close to 200 years old.

With all counted, the number of human participants in the war amounted to 410 billion people.

Nearly 90% of the population was involved in the war.

Only a small portion of the remaining population was stationed in crucial regions such as fire dragon giant ships, sprout ships, and Dyson Membrane Pole Space Stations.

All of civilization was divided into two extreme categories.

Ninety percent of the people were involved in the war, five percent were serving the war, and the remaining five percent were entrusted with the mission of preserving civilization.

The so-called impoverishment by war hadn’t even reached half of this.

Harrison Clark, who had participated in numerous apocalyptic wars, was witnessing such a scene for the first time.

At no other moment in the history of human civilization had such a hideous face of total war been displayed as it was now.

The current situation was inextricably linked to Harrison Clark himself.

About half an hour later, numerous time machines took off from the launch site near Oxfordshire. The middle and high-ranking commanders who had just attended the oath-taking convention rushed to space and resumed their posts.

When Nora Camp stepped into Harrison Clark’s time machine, she saw him deep in thought and asked, “You don’t seem too happy?”

Harrison Clark shook his head, “Not really, I am actually fine.”

Nora Camp made him a cup of tea and happily ate a piece of cake as she looked at him curiously from head to toe.

Harrison Clark took the tea cup, “You’re not nervous at all, even more so than me.”

Nora Camp shrugged, “I learned it from you. No matter how good the situation, I never get complacent. I don’t even plan to win the war, so I’m not nervous.”

“You learned well.” Harrison Clark sighed, “We still have too little information. Don’t laugh, but I’ve always only thought of the spherical battleships as enemies and never considered what to do after destroying them. This time, if everything goes according to plan, we’ll have a stable victory, but I’m even less confident.”
