"General, how do we act now? Is it back to Earth? The Space Legion Commander of the Counterattack saluted Fang Yuanli and asked about the next march.

"Let's go back to Earth first. After we returned, we would discuss countermeasures with the Supreme Council and the General Staff. ”

At first, Eve found the surprise attack on the Palase space base in the constellation V838 Monoceratus exciting, but then she thought of her parents on Earth and wanted to go home immediately.

Fang Yuan shook his head slowly and said, "I can't go back." ”

"Why?" Many of those present were puzzled.

In fact.

When the Counterattack left the Earth, the Supreme Council of Human Civilization issued an order to Fang Yuan and several other decision-makers of the Counterattack.

That is, if the Earth is destroyed, it is possible to immediately escape from the solar system and find a new terrestrial planet to find a way to revive human civilization.

This is actually a preparatory plan for the Tinder Project.

Previously, the success rate of the Tinder program was very low, because humans could not build faster-than-light spaceships.

It's different now, there are faster-than-light spaceships like Counterattack, and there is indeed a chance to find new terrestrial planets and reproduce humanity again.

Moreover, the galaxy is so big that it thrives on a new planet, and it is completely possible to hide from the Palasse civilization.

But.

The blood in every space force soldier who can be selected for the counterattack is boiling, and no one wants to choose to run away at such a time.

Therefore, when Fang Yuan said the sentence "I can't go back to Earth", everyone was immediately surprised.

Fang Yuan saw everyone's reactions, and explained in a calm tone: "Let me ask a question first, what should a normal army commander do before sending an army to attack the target?" ”

"Of course, it is necessary to reconnoiter the enemy's troops and defense situation first, and then send troops after ensuring the accuracy of the intelligence." Someone immediately answered.

The answer to this question is very simple, as long as the brain is not broken, it will definitely be reconnoitred before giving orders.

"That's right, so after we destroyed the two stargates of Orion and Ophiuchus, the Palese civilization did not send the space fleet of V838 in the constellation of Kirin in the first place, but took more than two months to dispatch. Needless to say, everyone can think of the reason, right? Fang Yuan glanced at everyone.

Everyone present nodded: "That's right, it must be the use of reconnaissance means to reconnoiter the situation on the earth." ”

The answer is obvious.

The Palese civilization did not send a fleet to attack the earth at the first time, and must have reconnoitred the earth first.

And this reconnaissance method is likely to be a technology such as "observer".

"So, the current situation on Earth, the Palese fleet should already be clear. However, there is one situation that they do not know, and that is our position. Fang Yuan said the point.

The Palese fleet uses the "Observer" to reconnoiter the situation on Earth, and as long as the "Observer" arrives on Earth, it can be reconnoitred in a day at most.

So, the "observers" of the Palese fleet should have arrived on Earth only in recent days.

And the Counterattack had left Earth more than two months ago to salvage the wreckage of the battleship in the Perseus δ star system.

Other words.

Now the location of the Counterattack and the military scientific research class is a piece of information that the Palese fleet does not know.

This kind of poor information, if used well, can play a role in turning the tables.

"So what do we do? Hide, and when the fight begins, there is a sudden sneak attack? "Niu Dazhi thinks of the most direct way.

This is indeed a solution, at least it can be taken by surprise.

It's just that a counterattack used to clean up low-level civilizations and a genuine fleet to sneak attack the Palese civilization can't be of much use even if it is taken by surprise.

"We only have one warship, and in space warfare, a sneak attack after the start of the battle will not have much effect, so it is better to carry out an ambush." Zhao Anya shook her head and vetoed this strategy.

Fang Yuan thought for a moment and said, "I still want to raid the Monocytes V838." ”

"Raid on the Monoceros V838? What about the Earth? Eve blinked.

If the military research team drove the counterattack to raid the Monocorn V838, it would mean that there was no dragon team on Earth.

The earth, which lacks the strongest god of war of mankind, does not even have the ability to struggle.

Han Youwei seemed to think of something, and hurriedly said, "Fang Yuan, do you mean that the Counterattack is going to raid the Monocemeter V838, but we are not going?" ”

When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized.

This is another strategy.

The Counterattack went to raid the Palese spacebase in the Monocerosis V838.

The strongest dragon team returns to Earth to participate in a head-on battle, which is indeed possible.

"That's right. In this case, the counterattack raided the Palasse base of the Monoceratus V838, and their fleet might turn around and go back to defense. Whether the whole fleet returns to defend or a part of the warships returns to defense, it will be beneficial to us. Lang Xiaonian slapped his palm, and immediately understood the trick.

Everyone present nodded their heads in agreement.

"There is a real hope that this plan will succeed, and if the Palese fleet is all back in action, then we have gained time. If they send some warships back to defend it, the pressure on the front of the earth will be much less. I'm in favor of sending the Counterattack to raid the Monoceros v838. ”

The students of the military scientific research class expressed their positions one after another.

Fang Yuan shook his head and said: "No, send the carbon-based alliance battleship that has just been salvaged, this battleship will only go into battle after repairing the engine system, and this task is extremely dangerous, you need to use the courage to not be afraid of life and death, so let's name it Dreadnought." ”

The space cruiser USS Intrepid was officially named.

This ship has just been repaired, and before it has returned to Earth, it is about to go on the most dangerous mission.

"However, none of the Dreadnought's weapons systems have been repaired...... Eve thought it was a bit cruel to do so, having just resurrected this old fellow who had been buried for 20,000 years, and was about to go on a death-like mission so soon.

"In three days, all the weapons of the Counterattack were removed and loaded on the Dreadnought."

Fang Yuan gave the order, and the engineering team on the battleship immediately began to carry out the order.

"Why do you have to send the Dreadnought?" There are still people who are puzzled and muttered quietly.

Zhao Anya heard this comrade-in-arms muttering, turned around and said, "Because the Intrepid is a battleship of the Carbon-based Alliance, sending the Intrepid can make the Palasse civilization even more fearful." ”

If it were a human raid on the space base of the Monoceratus V838, the Palasse civilization might not care at all, and they might not necessarily defend it.

However, if it is a battleship of the carbon-based alliance, it is not the same.

Therefore, sending the Dreadnought to raid the Monocerosis V838 is far more useful than sending the Counterattack.

The next three days.

Eve and the engineering team raced against time to load the weapons on the Counterattack onto the Dreadnought in preparation for the upcoming raid.
