"General, what are we going to do next?" The adjutant asked.

"How far are we from the planet Mengsk?" Season Lovell asked.

"Twelve astronomical units!" The adjutant replied.

"In that case, we'll turn to Vennitsa." At the end of the season, Lov made a choice, instead of directly attacking Monsk, the capital of the Kekha system, which was twelve astronomical units away, he chose another administrative star of the Kekha system, Vinnitsa.

Compared with the administrative star of the semi-military fortress of Monsk, Vinnytsia's defense force is not particularly strong, it is a predominantly agricultural administrative star, with a total of more than 100 million people living on it, most of these people are farmers, and a small number of other people live in the city, providing supporting services and various low-end industrial products for these farmers.

Generally speaking, because it is located in the remote area of the Earth Federation, and it is not a strategic point, Vinnitsa has been in obscurity for decades of development, and is rarely mentioned even in the decision-making of the Federal Assembly.

Although it is not valued by the Federation, the people of Vinnitsa are living very well, and everyone here is very peaceful and has a sense of being out of contention.

And Jiendlov chose this place as the first target, in addition to ensuring a good start to the first battle, he also hopes to reduce the losses of both sides, after all, once the battle is particularly fierce, it will definitely cause huge casualties, and Vinnitsa has no defense, maybe as soon as the army of the Third Combined Fleet arrives, they will surrender, so that Jiendlov will not only get the victory he wants, but also will not make too many killings for this.

In the final analysis, a general like Ji Mo Luo is actually very disgusted with the civil war between human beings, especially now when the foreign enemy is current, of course, this does not mean that he supports Qin Hao, after all, in the eyes of orthodoxy, Qin Hao is the leader of the rebels at this time.

……

"Yes! Checkmate! "With the order of the end of the season, the fleet began to adjust the course, and then went straight to Vinnitsa, because it was already in the same star system, and the jump point of the Third Fleet was only seven astronomical units away from Vinnytsia, so as a mature general, it was absolutely impossible for the end of the season to use the phase jump in order to catch up with this little time.

Although the phase transition technology can greatly reduce the time required for interstellar travel, correspondingly, when leaving phase space, the ship will lose power and the protection of the shield.

In this case, the entire fleet is tantamount to being completely exposed to enemy fire, and in the event of an ambush, the losses are unimaginable.

At this time, the Third Fleet has penetrated deep into the Keha system, although it has not encountered the enemy at present, but Jimolov does not believe that the other party still has not found his traces, if the second jump is made, it is likely that the enemy will build an ambush circle in advance, and then let his fleet suffer unnecessary losses.

The Third Fleet headed for Vinnitsa at a tenth of the speed of light, and about nine hours later, the end of the season's fleet was already approaching the gravity well of Vinnitsa, and then at this time, the fleet's early warning radar detected the enemy's signal!

"General! Discover the traces of the fleet of the Keha system! The adjutant immediately sent the radar report to the end of the season.

"On such a large scale? Is it the main force of the enemy army? Ji Mo Luo was stunned, he didn't expect the Keha Galaxy fleet to take the initiative to appear in a decisive battle with him, he thought that the other party would fight with him in the Keha System.

"The radar has confirmed that there is no virtual signal, they are all real warships, and most of them are destroyers! Confirm that it is the enemy's main force! The adjutant replied that the radar report had been confirmed before it was sent to Quarterlov.

"Catch up! Annihilate them! Jimlov immediately ordered that although he was not willing to fight his old friend General Cohen, as a soldier and a general, he would never allow himself to miss the plane after discovering it.

Now the fleet of the Keha system has taken the initiative to dedicate itself to the battle, and the size of their fleet is only about a hundred, even if these warships are well-equipped, and most of them are destroyers or more, they will not be able to stop the Third Combined Fleet more than ten times larger.

And once the main fleet of the Keha system is eliminated, then the entire Keha system will be equivalent to losing its defensive power, and surrender is their only choice at that time, and the end of the season will be able to win this victory with the least casualties and the minimum cost.

Don't look at Jimlov's promise that General Cohen would choose to surrender once he was captured, but as an upright soldier, he would not let go of water in battle, and if he could win, he would definitely fight for it.

"Yes! Checkmate! The adjutant immediately took the order, and then passed the order of Jimlov to each of the battleships.

Then the fleet quickly adjusted its course and went straight to the Keha Galaxy Fleet led by Hu Ke, and the formation of the Third Combined Fleet did not have any confusion during the whole process, and it looked like a well-trained division of a hundred battles.

……

"Sir, they've spotted us, and they're chasing us!" At the same time, Hu Ke also got a report.

"Hmmm! We wait for them! Hu Ke nodded, and at the same time ordered the fleet to make an attack stance.

As the minutes passed, the distance between the two fleets was getting closer and closer, and there was less than one astronomical unit left.

"General, there are fifteen minutes left, and the other party will be within our firing range!" The adjutant reported to Jimolov.

"Keep going! All ship shield energy boosts, concentrated on the bow of the ship! At the end of the season, Lovev ordered, because the ships of the Third Fleet are generally rubbish, so the range is definitely inferior to the opponent, and the first round of blows will definitely be in vain, so it is inevitable to concentrate shield energy to withstand the opponent's attack.

But when the distance between the two sides is shortened, and when it comes time to attack closely, the superiority of the ships of the Third Fleet will be reflected, so the end of the season is not in a hurry.

"Sir! The opponent is already within range of the energy cannon. At the same time, Hu Ke's adjutant also reported in front of him.

"Let's have a scatter!" Hu Ke said.

"Yes!" The lieutenant immediately conveyed the order, and the few ships equipped with the energy main guns in the Keha fleet began to charge the main guns, and two minutes later, more than thirty beams of light rushed straight into the Third Fleet.

"Spot a high-energy reaction ahead, dodge!" After receiving the alarm, the captains of the Third Fleet immediately ordered the battleships to take evasive actions, and although the energy weapons attacked at ballistic speeds close to the speed of light, they still had two or three minutes of reaction time at a distance of nearly one astronomical unit.
