"The opponent wants to break through our defense line and go around our rear!" The old patriarch sighed.

In fact, he had expected this situation for a long time, and if the commander on the opposite side was not too stupid, he would definitely adopt such a tactic of breaking diplomatic relations.

He didn't order the defense fleet to pursue, and their second-hand modified ships couldn't catch up with the opponent's high-speed fleet.

And once a large number of ships are sent to encircle, the defense line here will be empty, and without the cooperation of the fleet, it will be easy for the opposite side to take advantage of it.

The performance of the ship can be said to be the Achilles' heel of the Lane Clan, whether it is firepower or speed, it is not comparable to the regular army of the Gemini.

The Bronze Mecha Legion is formidable, but at best it is a group of infantry, and it is impossible to match the speed and durability of cavalry.

Even if he knew the purpose of the twin stars, the means he could use to deal with them were limited, and he could only watch the other party flee farther and farther away.

Soon after, the two twin fleets that were far away turned on the optical stealth system, and the entire fleet gradually blurred and completely disappeared from the radar of the Lane Clan.

Although gravitational radar can break optical stealth, it is not omnipotent, and its disadvantage is that the detection range is short, which is directly proportional to the mass of the detected target.

Massive objects can reach a range of light years, but tens of millions of kilometers are already the limit for a target of this small fleet.

"Patriarch, what do we do now? The two fleets together have more than 60 warships, and although their combat effectiveness is not strong, they may have a certain impact on our logistical supply lines......," someone worried.

"Don't worry, I have already reminded Jin Luo of this situation, he cherishes the private fleet under his command and wants to preserve his strength, let us be cannon fodder, then there should be the consciousness of this situation, this responsibility cannot reach us.

As for the task of protecting the supply lines, it is not our responsibility......" A gleam flashed in the old patriarch's eyes.

……

"Bang! A bunch of rubbish! ”

Sure enough, after receiving the news, Jin Luo, who was hiding behind the safety, only smashed his cup in frustration and scolded a word of waste, but he didn't really go to the trouble of the Ryan clan.

The Lane clan had indeed warned of the difference in the performance of the warships between the two sides for a long time, but the fleet under the command of King Rock could be said to be his personal property, and he would not be distressed to death if it was damaged.

Jin Luo's little abacus is very fine, even if the mercenaries are dead, he will not feel distressed, and it is a big deal to recruit another batch.

It's a pity that he misjudged the strength of the Gemini civilization from the beginning, although it is far inferior to the Woolf Empire, but it is by no means something that he can easily eat as a wealthy businessman.

At least the Gemini look strong for now, and this war will definitely not be over for a while.

No matter where you are, war is the most expensive investment, even if the mercenaries are cheaper, but those equipment and supplies are real money.

Although the output of dozens of galaxies owned by Jin Luo is not bad, self-produced and sold, these consumption also have the effect of stimulating domestic demand, but it can't stand burning money all the time!

Jin Luo was a little irritable because of this, but he didn't expect the other side to give him such a play.

He's a bit of a tiger riding now.

You must know that this wormhole has been reported to the Woolf Empire, and he just bought the "independent development rights" here.

This model is like the land bureau's contract system, where you pay to contract a piece of wasteland for development.

Regardless of the development results, just pay a personal income tax.

But now that Jinluo is halfway through the development, it is found that the "demolition fee" of local residents is actually exceeded, and additional investment is required!

It's going to be a dead man!

If you don't continue to invest money, the initial investment will basically be wasted.

can continue to invest, no one knows when this bottomless pit will be filled, and it is not impossible for him to go bankrupt in the end.

Therefore, gambling stones are risky, and you need to be cautious when entering the industry......

In the current situation, it is undoubtedly the safest way to hand over the task of the twin stars and ask the Imperial army to take over this war, which is called cutting the flesh and stopping the loss.

But the question is, is Kim Rok a man who can cut meat?

Obviously, cutting will definitely die and will not cut! It was worse for him than to ask for Kinglock's life.

"Let the Titan system strengthen its defenses, double the protection of the transport fleet, and let the Fifth Fleet search the nearby star fields and destroy those two annoying flies!" Kinglock gritted his teeth and commanded.

"Yes!"

In Kinglocke's view, these actions increase the cost, and it is all the money he has earned so hard!

These damned enemies!

……

The Titan Galaxy is the closest galaxy to the wormhole battlefield under the name of King Lock, and the distance between the two is about 1 light, and according to the current speed of the Woolf Empire's spaceship, it will take about ten hours to sail.

The Fifth Fleet is one of the five private fleets under the command of King Rock, with about 500 warships, and is responsible for the defense of the Titan system in peacetime.

In addition, they are also responsible for providing logistics support for this war, and they can be said to be the biggest opponents of the Gemini fleet in breaking the engagement!

And just as Jin Luo launched an operation to prepare to encircle and suppress the invading fleet, Nie Yun led the fleet straight to a coordinate.

Unlike Beckman, who had a dark eye and could only collect information little by little, Nie Yun had already invaded the intelligence system of the Lane people and gained a first-mover advantage.

Although the Lane Clan also has limited knowledge of the internal information of the Golden Rock side, it is impossible for the troop layout and the like to leak it to them.

However, as local natives, the Lane people have a unique advantage in the intelligence of the surrounding star fields......

Five days later, Nie Yun sailed all the way at high speed, made several disguises and changed directions, and led the fleet to the planned destination, and what caught his eyes was an incomparably large meteorite field!

"It's ......" Everyone in the fleet was stunned by the scene in front of them.

In a range about the size of the solar system, debris of celestial bodies of various sizes slowly rotated around a white dwarf star in the center, and tiny clouds of dust spread throughout the field.

What is striking is not the size of this meteorite belt, but the faint revelation of some of the shattered celestial bodies.

The largest of these celestial fragments is comparable to a small planet, but instead of a natural regular oval or approximate shape, it is full of edges and fractures, more like planetary fragments that have been hit by some powerful weapon!

"Here...... Could it be a battlefield? Catherine's eyes widened in surprise.

"Who knows?" Nie Yun also pretended to be surprised and shrugged his shoulders.

The information here, Nie Yun naturally has a part, although it is not complete.

The Shattered Star Field is a well-known Broken Galaxy near the Titan System.

Contrary to Catherine's guess, this was once an ancient battlefield, and it is said that the nearby star field originally belonged to a powerful civilization.

The Woolf Empire encountered this civilization more than a thousand years ago, and a large-scale war soon broke out between the two sides, and the results were obvious.

Although the Woolf Empire won the final victory, it was met with fierce resistance from the other side, and in the fierce battle, both sides even smashed the main battlefield into ruins, which can be seen in the intensity of the battlefield at that time!

And after millennia, this shattered galaxy is still desolate.

However, the harsh and complex celestial environment has created a special cosmic group...... Pirate!
