Chapter 529: Changes in the Battlefield (1)
On the frontal battlefield, the heavy fleet of the Second Fleet of the coalition forces, supported by the rear fleet, is slowly advancing its own front.
And in the original operational direction of the first echelon, a completely new fleet was on top. Although this fleet is not comparable to the first echelon in terms of the number of warships and the level of firepower, it is more than enough to complete the original containment mission of the first echelon.
The Zerg, who were surrounded by the coalition forces, felt the pressure brought by both sides, and it was a little difficult to choose between the defenses in the two directions.
If you judge from the priority of the battlefield, the defense in the direction of the frontal position is indeed the side that should be strengthened, but in the previous battle, the picture of Zhang Yunfan leading this high-speed fleet approaching at great speed also really left a shadow in the hearts of the Zerg.
In such a complex battlefield situation, if a disruptive enemy fleet rushes in from within the camp, then this defensive battle will not need to be fought again.
Although the fleet that gave them this crisis has now left and replaced it with a brand new fleet, and in terms of tactics, this new fleet is much more stable, but even so the Zerg do not dare to be careless.
In addition, in addition to these two fleets, the coalition fleets in other directions are also staring at the Zerg's defensive camp, as if they are waiting for the Zerg to take the initiative to make some mistakes and then launch a fatal blow to it.
Every time the Zerg carry out an action, they have to think about it inside their command center, and deduce all the possibilities as much as possible, in case they make any unforgivable command mistakes.
Although this can ensure that the coalition forces have nothing to take advantage of, it also slows down the pace of the Zerg's own counterattack, so that they are always at a disadvantage in the constant battle with the coalition forces.
In the rear of the coalition rest area, a number of movable space ports were erected in this area, and the various fleets of the First Fleet were safely docked in the harbor, and most of the battleships came to the living area of the port to rest and wait for the completion of the fleet repair work.
In the No. 1 airport, Zhang Yunfan and others were sitting quietly in a café in the living area, enjoying the rich and mellow coffee while observing the situation of the battlefield through the battlefield broadcast.
The current situation of the coalition forces on the battlefield can be described as very good, especially the steady advance of the frontal forces, which is a very regrettable performance. Therefore, the state of the four people is very relaxed, and there is no heavy atmosphere at all.
Around them, there were also bustling customers who were also dressed in various military uniforms, and should be members of the fleets of various countries that had come down in the first echelon to rest.
Zhang Yunfan and the others were very low-key, and before getting off the ship, they all changed into ordinary Ming military uniforms, which was not so obvious in this airport where the armies of various countries gathered, otherwise the exclusive military uniforms of the four legions gathered together, and the four of them couldn't even think of being high-profile.
The four of them sat silently in a corner of the store, concentrating on the battlefield broadcast in the center of the table, and the scene was very quiet, because the battle was already going well and they didn't need to comment on it anymore.
If the Zerg doesn't make changes, wait until the battlefield is in the middle and late stages, and then if the Zerg wants to turn the tables again, it will be impossible.
"Won?" Yi Lexuan observed the situation on the battlefield, took a deep breath, and said slowly.
"Don't just bite the bullet!" Zhang Yunfan also spoke out and said: "If the Zerg changes its tactics, it is not impossible to turn defeat into victory. ”
This remark immediately attracted the attention of the other three people seat, and Ling Aocang took the lead and immediately asked, "Oh, how do you say it?" ”
"Although the Zerg fought against the coalition forces on the frontal battlefield, the damage was somewhat heavy, and they also lost a lot of troops when they were raided by us, but the Zerg still has a large number of available troops, and their number and scale are also more than ten times higher than that of the coalition forces, this gap is absolutely impossible to ignore."
"Then how the hell should the Zerg fight back?" Yue Linxian asked.
"Actually, it's not that hard!" Zhang Yunfan said. "The current strength of the Zerg is the same as that of the coalition army, but it is only because they have been suppressed by the coalition army above the front that they are a little weak, and all they have to do is to turn defense into offense, and only in this way can their advantages be brought into play."
The three of them also nodded silently when they heard this.
They also knew in their hearts that the Zerg troops on the battlefield had always been on the defensive, and the defensive formation formed was also quite perfect, which reduced a lot of fire damage from the coalition forces.
Logically speaking, the Zerg should be in an advantageous position on the battlefield, but from a practical point of view, the Zerg has gradually moved towards the direction of defeat.
One reason for this phenomenon is that the Zerg have a problematic understanding of defense.
In a defensive battle on a cosmic battlefield, especially in this situation where there is no substantial cover at all, the defensive formation of the defender is the key to victory, but there is another decisive factor, and that is the firepower that can be held per unit area.
The firepower of the Zerg has always been in a weak position compared to the coalition fleet, so with this combination of firepower to defend the front, in the same area, the unit's coalition fleet will completely defeat the Zerg army, which is a fact that cannot be changed no matter how dense the Zerg line up their formation.
Therefore, if you have been in a state of passive defense, the Zerg has been defending against each other's strengths with your own shortcomings, and the victory rate will be very slim.
Under the inspiration of Zhang Yunfan, several people can be regarded as having a clear understanding of what the Zerg should do next.
That is, to abandon this passive defense in favor of more intense mobile warfare.
Although this kind of battle may increase sharply in the early stage due to the concentrated attack of the coalition front and when the own side has not yet formed an effective attack formation, and in the next battle, there will also be a large number of casualties, but this is indeed the only way out for the Zerg.
"So what if the Zerg finally chooses this method? How should the coalition respond? Ling Aocang raised a new question in an instant.
"Well...... this" Zhang Yunfan pondered for a moment, and then said: "This method was originally the practice of two wounds, and the risks taken by the Zerg who resumed mobile combat were basically no different from those of the coalition forces, so it only brought the battlefield back to a balanced state, and the coalition fleet did not need to worry about anything at all." ”
"Then, with your understanding of the coalition forces, will the battlefield command change its combat policy because of this?" Yue Linxian then asked.
"I guess so!" Zhang Yunfan said: "Wasn't the previous combat policy aimed at the defensive warfare of the coalition forces? Now that the situation on the battlefield has changed, of course the coalition forces must make changes according to the actual situation, otherwise they will fight defensive battles to deal with these Zerg mobile troops, so it will not be chaotic? ”
