Chapter 288, a battleship duel is impossible
In the vast void of the Canis Major Galaxy, three huge space fleets are advancing rapidly in the void at a speed of hundreds of kilometers per second, and the three fleets are in a huge trident formation in the void, each fleet has more than 50 huge space warships, and the mass of each space warship has reached the level of 1 billion tons.
In the void near each fleet, the dense and indescribable space battleships and battle spaceships surrounded the void, at this time they had turned off their engines and relied on inertia to fly, occasionally a long tail flame lit up, flying towards the huge space battleship, and soon it would fly back to its position.
More than 150 large space warships, 5 million space fighters, and this is just the first wave of troops, here on Lorne, the space factory is working day and night, constantly producing new space fighters and weapons, as soon as the space factory comes out, the astronauts who have been waiting for a long time immediately leave.
In the outer space of Lorne, space fighters and combat spaceships gathered together from the void in all directions, and soon, the second wave of a huge battle group of 1 million space fighters was formed, and the huge space fighter group was soon loaded by large spaceships and space battleships, chasing the battleship group in front.
"It seems that the enemy has discovered us, and the enemy's strength is really terrifying, and 150 large space warships have been dispatched!"
Here in the Earth Expeditionary Force, in the command and control room of the "Huashan", Xue Yue, who received the latest information, had an ugly face, the power of the Lorne Empire was too strong, and 150 large space warships were dispatched in the first wave alone, and the strength was several times that of his own!
"Everybody say, what are we going to do?"
In the local virtual world, Xue Yue, Lawrence, Jill, Wei Guoliang and other battleship commanders gathered together at this time to discuss the next battle plan.
"We must not engage in a duel between warships and warships with the enemy, the attack distance of our weapons is shorter than theirs, of course, the most important thing is that the number of our warships is far less than that of the other party, and the 19 space warships in our hands are the foundation of our conquest here, and there is no room for error."
Admiral Lawrence, the commander of the battleship "Alps", was the first to speak.
"I think we should give full play to our own advantages as much as possible, and use our space fighters to destroy the enemy's space warships, which is also the strategy we have formulated on the earth at the beginning, because of the existence of the virtual world, the training level of our fighters is far stronger than that of the enemy, so our advantages in the space fighter duel are very huge, and we should give full play to them as much as possible."
"I also support General Lawrence's opinion and follow the plan we originally made on Earth."
Jill and the others also nodded in support of each other.
"Well, since everyone thinks there is no problem, then it will be carried out according to the original plan."
"Ladies and gentlemen, this battle is not only related to the most critical step in the interstellar colonization and expansion of our earth, but also related to the lives of all of us, so we must win this battle!"
Xue Yue nodded, in fact, the plan had already been formulated, and he also went through the process to ask everyone's opinions, although he was the commander and had full powers, but after all, it was the army of the earth's united front, all of them were from all over the world, and they still had to be discussed.
"Yes!"
Everyone stood up and replied respectfully.
The armies of both sides flew towards each other at a rapid pace, getting closer and closer, and at this time, the two sides of the war, whether they were up to the commander-in-chief like Xue Yue or down to an ordinary member, everyone began to become more and more nervous.
The earth has also been peaceful for many years, and there are basically no major wars, especially for people from developed countries, the people who survived the last war in the asteroid belt of the earth were regarded as heroes again, and all chose to retire, and now they are replaced by a group of new soldiers.
This is especially true on the side of the Lorne Empire, they have already implemented global unity hundreds of years ago, and the war is very far away for them, at this time they have to face an alien civilization, even if their own side is strong, but at this time the warriors of the Lorne Empire are even more nervous.
The two sides trembled, and the distance between them became closer and closer.
"Are you an Earth civilization from the solar system?"
"That's right."
"What are you here for us with such a massive space battleship?"
"For the sake of justice, because your Scat ~ Chi fired the first shot at us, we came."
Across the distant void, the two sides had a brief conversation, just like the conversation between the two sides in the solar system and Scat ~ Zhi, the two sides did not speculate on each other, ready to see the real work under their hands.
When the distance between the two sides was only tens of millions of kilometers, the hatches on the space battleships here on the same front of the earth were wide open, and space fighters continued to take off from the battleships.
In the dark and dark cosmic environment, it was like a ball of fireflies, and soon countless fireflies gathered around each space battleship, and these fireflies quickly gathered together, and then flew towards the army of the Lorne Empire one after another.
1,000,000 space fighters flew out of the space warships within an hour, and the stars in the entire void were eclipsed, replaced by dazzling fireflies in the sky, one after another, one group after another, roaring through the void.
The United Front of the Earth did not dare to underestimate the enemy, all the space fighters took off, and the most important thing in this battle was these space fighters, and as for the space warships, they did not dare to take them out to fight hard against the Lorne Empire.
"Start slowing down, adjust your direction."
Seeing that the firefly swarm in his field of vision gradually became weaker, Xue Yue did not hesitate to give an order, since he did not dare to use the space battleship to fight, then it was naturally better to keep the space battleship away from the battlefield.
On the other hand, the army of the Lorne Empire, which is closely following the movements of the Earth army, has also ordered all the space fighters to take off at this time, and the number of the first wave alone is as many as 5 million, and the second wave of space fighters is about to come to support, and a steady stream of troops in the rear is coming up.
"The space warships of the earthlings actually began to deviate from their original directions, and ordered the first and second armies to intercept them, and they must not be allowed to get close to our Lorne star, and they must all be destroyed here."
Marshal Cons, the commander of the army on the Lorne Empire's side, learned that the flight trajectory of the battleship of the Earth Expeditionary Giant had changed, and he did not hesitate at all, and the two armies in his hand also adjusted the direction and intercepted it.
Winning or losing this battle is still a trivial matter, if he lets the battleship on the earthling's side get close to Lorne and throws something on Lorne's side, then he will win the war at that time, and he will be killed by the emperor to thank the world when he returns.
The distance of tens of millions of kilometers seems to be very far at all, but at this time, the flying speed of both sides is more than 100 kilometers per second, which adds up to the speed of hundreds of kilometers per second, and the distance of tens of millions of kilometers is just a few days, and the attack distance of laser weapons on both sides is calculated in millions of kilometers, and the distance of tens of millions of kilometers is really short.
The army of the Lorne Empire began to disperse in the void, carrying a huge group of space fighters, and the space fighters of the expeditionary army towards the earth like the stars holding the moon intercepted it.
In their opinion, what is really important is the space fighters of the earthlings, although the number of these space fighters is also huge, but no matter how huge they are, they cannot be bigger than their own side, and they are not worth paying too much attention to, and as long as they destroy the space fighters of the earthlings, these space fighters will be like roots and rootsless trees, and there is nothing to be afraid of at all.
"Keep adjusting your direction, you can't meet them!"
Xue Yue learned that the enemy was chasing his cosmic battleship, and he did not hesitate, and began to take the enemy to dodge in the universe, and the duel between the warships was definitely not done, and he would never have a frontal battleship duel with the Lorne people in his life.
Before the war started, a strange phenomenon appeared, the space warships of the earthlings kept adjusting their direction and escaping in the void, and the space warships of the Lorne Empire also followed the adjusted direction to chase over, Marshal Cons thought that the earthlings were going straight to their home planet, and they didn't dare to be careless, and they didn't talk about the earthlings at all, and they didn't dare to have a frontal battleship duel with them.
The space battleships were in a rally race in the void, and on the other side, the huge space fighter group was getting closer and closer to the Lorne Empire's space fighter group and another warship group.
"Whew!"
In the void, a dazzling light pierced the void, and the space battleship of the Lorne Empire's solar system expeditionary force took the lead in attacking, but there was no space battleship, and the cannon was also to kill the arrogance of the earthlings.
"Boom!"
In the void millions of kilometers away, at this time, the huge group of fighters was flying by inertia with their engines turned off, and suddenly a space fighter was hit by a dazzling light, and there was no reaction at all, and it was directly hit by a powerful laser cannon and exploded in the void.
Like a flock of frightened sheep, the originally silent void, the group of fighters that were silently relying on inertia to fly suddenly started the engines of one after another space fighters, and began to spew out long blazing white tail flames.
The whole originally dark and dark void, in the summer night, at first just a firefly appeared, and then soon more and more fireflies appeared, slowly becoming one clump after another, group after group, and soon, the entire void became brighter.
