The observers on the Sarbat Iron Claw were also relatively relaxed, not expecting the enemy from the opposite galaxy to attack them.

It's understandable, they thought it was just one exercise, just like any one in the last twenty years.

But now, the war has really broken out. They're excited, they're excited, they're eager to try, they're imaginative, they're scared and nervous, but they've forgotten to be alert.

As the observers on the flagship, they also got a big meal, with meat, eggs, soup, sugar, and wine, and even two wooden knotweed sticks for each person. This is a delicacy that they have not seen for a long time, so they are full of wine and food, and they are thinking about the future while nibbling on Mu Tianli. It was a rare leisure before the Great War.

We need to understand their laxity at this time.

After all, the Kingdom of Kaitai has been in politics for many years, and the scale of military expansion has long exceeded the economic limit they can bear, and people's livelihood will naturally be greatly affected.

Not to mention the ordinary people, even these naval soldiers, and they are ship technical posts with superior salaries, the food standards are really indescribable. Now, it's rare to have a good meal, even if there is a suspicion of "decapitated rice", don't you have to eat it?

Of course, the standards of the samurai nobility could not be lowered. After all, they are the basic plate that the Kaitai people, a fighting nation, can gain a foothold in the galactic civilization circle, and they must ensure that they "have sufficient physical and mental state to deal with the most dangerous state". As a result, the samurai class could eat the imperial court food, and the soldiers could only nibble on canned salted fish and synthetic meat dough...... However, the Kaitai people themselves did not feel that there was any problem, so there is no need for us to worry about the ancients.

All in all, the observers on the Ironclaw had begun to nap, making "purring" and "purring" sounds, until the alarm bell rang several times, and they slowly connected the signal, yawning and scolding, "What is the noise...... Ahh Those two fleets are fighting? Or are the centaurs dying again? ”

"Attack? What kind of attack, what the hell are you talking about? The slaves rebelled? Rebel and let your own captains and overseers deal with it! Don't push everything down the command, okay? ”

Before they could finish their words, a series of bright lights suddenly exploded outside the transparent window of the bridge, and the blazing white and bright light flashed so that the soldiers could hardly open their eyes. There was a guy who usually boasted that he had the best eyesight and could see the beard of a mouse a kilometer away, and even covered his eyes and wailed.

After nearly half a minute, someone finally reacted, and the white light was clearly the effect of the proton torpedo explosion, and they hurriedly sounded the alarm. But before they made these moves, the entire fleet of the Kaitai people had already endured the first wave of 300 proton torpedoes.

"We've been attacked!" By this time, the officers of Kaitai finally realized this, but what followed was naturally anger and incomprehension.

"Our alert fleet? Where is our alert fleet? Why notify? ”

Of course, they did not know that the originally planned three patrol and garrison fleets had been withdrawn to the formation of the main force of the fleet, and it was precisely because of such a gap that the enemy was given an opportunity to take advantage of.

Yang Xiyi's tactic is very clear, that is, to take advantage of the enemy's failure to react, and give him a serious enough blow. The first to complete the jump and appear in the West Tail system, where the enemy fleet is located, is a fast strike fleet composed of 20 county-class light cruisers and 64 Nile-class destroyers.

When they found that there was no enemy to intercept them, they immediately happily turned on the power of the sub-beam engine to the extreme, and even turned on the solar sail to accelerate, and under the cover of the blue-white stellar sunlight of the local galaxy, they quickly approached the enemy fleet and dropped 300 proton torpedoes at one time.

These solarfire-type proton torpedoes, infused with high-explosive dust, roared into the outskirts of the unprepared enemy fleet and began to explode. In just one explosion, more than 40 ships were wounded, including a heavy cruiser that was unlucky enough to be hit in the face by a torpedo, which destroyed the bridge and the front of the ship on the spot, and then set the ammunition depot on fire. A few minutes later, this behemoth, which was hundreds of thousands of tons, turned into a cloud of cosmic dust on the spot.

The light cruisers and destroyers took it when they saw it, and ran away when they were done. This is also the plan that Yang Xiyi made at the beginning, he will never allow love to fight, and he will run away after a round.

Sure enough, when they turned away, seven or eight cruisers left the enemy's own fleet and pursued them with gritted teeth. They were obviously improvised, and they should have been the captain's quick decision, what a group of decisive and loyal people.

However, they had just left the group when they were blocked by the second group of striking fleets that had jumped out.

It was a mighty contingent of twelve large arsenal ships, twenty heavy cruisers, and sixty frigates.

In this universe, a frigate is not a ship that is one class smaller than a destroyer, but a medium and large ship, slightly bulky in action, but carrying heavy armor and a large shield generator, as well as decent support firepower. On the battlefield, it is used to protect such firepower platforms as aircraft carriers and arsenal ships on the frontal front.

Well, I'm afraid that observers outside the universe will be confused in the future, so I will still call it a "guardianship" in the future.

In short, sixty frigates were the first to spread their shields, unfurling a wall of arc light in front of the arsenal ships. It's like a heavy infantry with a large shield erected in front of its projection troops.

The twenty heavy cruisers began to pick up, rounding around before the shields could be formed, and fired a salvo of the main guns at the Kaitai cruisers, which had not even formed in formation.

Dozens of red laser rays pierced the sky, cutting through the shields and armor of the three cruisers in the first place, plunging them into a continuous implosion.

The cruiser melee began, however, the situation was one-sided.

However, they are not destined to be the protagonists. Because at that moment, twelve large arsenal ships weighing more than one million tons poured out more than 10,000 anti-ship missiles at one time and broke into the chaotic enemy fleet group. The shock wave of light and heat spread like an explosion of countless small suns, and in an instant, all the enemy fleets were covered in blinding light, and they could no longer be seen for a while.

Immediately after that, the transition from the other direction was completed by the third strike fleet consisting of ten large aircraft carriers and ten arsenal ships. The latter, after a saturation shot of a perfect missile, was followed by three more railgun salvos.

This time, the Kaitai fleet finally reacted, and many large and medium-sized ships finally deployed their shields, and the damage was not great. But for those small ships with weak shields and armor, the situation can be imagined.

Almost at the same moment, the fighters that took off from the ten aircraft carriers also swarmed in, and with almost no losses, they had already swept at high speed over the enemy light ship group that had been hit hard, easily crushed the enemy fighters that had taken off in haste, and then burst into its heavy capital ship group, turning the world upside down.

The chaos of the combined fleet of Cathay began to expand step by step.

So far, the results of the raid have been almost perfect, and it is only half an hour before the official start of the attack. Of course, this was an impeccable plan formulated by Yang Xiyi in a short period of time, and Admiral Perris's policy of that month, moon, fire, water, wood, and gold was also a great success. Regardless of whether the officers and men of the Outer Ring Fleet complain or not, they are indeed the only elite and strong army in the community.

Of course, if the other side's fleet in charge of monitoring and guarding is always patrolling, even if the raid is successful, it will not have such an effect.

"So, I knew that Kaitai people were really so big. I wouldn't have spent half an hour making a backup plan. Yang Xiyi looked at Yu Lian curiously: "So, how are you sure that they will transfer the garrison fleet?" ”

Because, of course, a year later...... No, history tells me that it will never happen in a year's time.

"The red-eyed marshal who commands the opposing fleet. This is originally a famous player with a lot of gambling and scheming, and since he has decided to do it, he will definitely do it to the end, and he will definitely try his best to create the most perfect raid effect. They assembled a large fleet to conduct exercises, and our side also assembled a fleet to monitor the confrontation. When the exercise is over, the other side will take the first step to withdraw the patrol and garrison fleet on the periphery, and our side will also remove the warning network and disband the fleet accordingly. If we launch a surprise attack at this time, it will definitely deal a huge blow to us, and we will not be able to fight back in a short time. In that case, why don't we just do it? ”

"So, you're betting he'll do what you think?"

"Yes, it's just gambling, anyway, even if you lose, it won't have much impact, and it's not a big problem. Mr. Yang, didn't you also make a corresponding plan B? If the enemy's alert fleet is not withdrawn, then the first batch of destroyers will not launch a surprise attack immediately after they have completely jumped, but will swing around in front of the opponent and then jump back again......"

"Yes! However, the question is, why do I have such a plan B? Yang Xiyi said with great interest, just like when he asked a question in the academy class back then.

"This is to show Marshal Reed Red-Eyed that we are ready. He was a gambler, but he was not crazy or stupid, and because he was a gambler, he was suspicious. Seeing that our side is already in full formation, we may abandon the raid plan, even if we wait until Charlen Gorilla comes, we will persuade the latter to give up...... Even if it's just a period of hesitation and arguing, it will buy us time for reinforcements. ”

Speaking of which, Yu Lian also has to admit that celebrities are celebrities, and the "Fox of the Outer Ring" is too leaky to do things, and it is almost the same as being called "The Turtle of the Outer Ring".

"Anyway, the worst result is nothing more than everyone pulling out the battle and fighting a tough battle. Even if it really comes to that point, we still have the absolute lead! Didn't you already put all the working ships on standby, just waiting for the implementation of Plan B to sprinkle machine mines around the gravity wells? ”

Yang Xiyi stopped, pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "Yu Lian, when you graduate, you will use this battle as the theme to complete your graduation thesis." ”

"Huh? Mr. Yang, your topic is jumping too fast, right? ”

Yang Xiyi ignored him, and said to Colonel Chaimen, who was leading the way in front and listening in amazement: "Chaimen, this kid is a treasure of the community, and he is much more precious than the messy prince opposite. I suppose Your Excellency the Commander thinks so too. ”

Colonel Chaimen said, "Don't worry, Lao Yang." Not only you and Your Excellency the Commander, but I also think so. But since it's a treasure, it has to have a gorgeous enough appearance ceremony! We have to show the Empire and the Alliance, the young people of our Earth have such talents! Therefore, old Diego and I will be optimistic about him! He'll be the safest of our fleet! I promise you the Spirit of the Universe and my own life! ”
