Chapter 1006: The Battle of Meat Grinding
Although the 6th prince is compared to Luc? Stillberg, David? A character like Conan looks young, but he is not inferior at all when it comes to leading troops into battle. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Let? Johnson, Wang Xiaochuan, Wahid? After a detailed discussion of the situation, Kgman and the commanders of the various fleets decided to send three fleets under the command of the Spartacus Wing, in cooperation with the 9th and 10th fleets, to attack the 1st and 2nd divisions of the Xudra Army from the flanks.
The Spartacus Wing has more than 7,000 warships, divided into 6 sub-fleets, and lost nearly 1,000 ships in the previous battle for the Carylland star system, and only 6,000 ships are left at this time, including some damaged warships, which is why Mackintosh dared to lead the 5 divisions of the Xudra Legion to attack.
The 1st, 3rd, and 4th subfleets joined the battlefield in the border area, and cooperated with the 9th and 10th fleets and a large number of space-based unmanned defense platforms to launch a joint attack on the warships of the Xudra Legion, gradually eroding the enemy's living forces.
As the attacker, the 1st and 2nd divisions of the Xudra Legion suffered considerable losses in the process of tearing apart the internal defense line of the star system constructed by the 9th and 10th fleets and space-based unmanned defense platforms, and at least 200 warships were reduced.
There is no doubt that after many defeats, it is a joy to be able to taste the fruits of victory. The 1st, 3rd, and 4th subfleets became more aggressive, and the 9th and 10th fleets advanced steadily in a conservative manner.
Let? By the time Johnson reacted, it was too late. The 1st and 2nd warships of the Xudra Regiment were scattered in formation, and when the battleships of the Spartacus Wing pursued the 9th and 10th fleets, they inevitably dragged the entire defense line forward, causing the previous line of defense to be distorted and evacuated, and there was a deep disconnect with the rear defense line.
At this moment, the Dragon Fleet, the Silver Fox Fleet, the Polaris Fleet, and the Quedara Fleet appeared in the place where the 2nd Division of the Xudra Legion had just attacked. Due to the torn apart of the defensive line relying on the warp interception facility, it did not have much negative impact on the three Monya local lord fleets, but only caused some minor damage.
After appearing, these warships did not attack the interior of the star system, but turned outward, and cooperated with the 1st and 2nd divisions of the Xudra Corps, forming a front and rear attack on the 9th Fleet, the 10th Fleet, and the 3 sub-fleets of the Spartacus Wing in the middle.
In any case, you can't sit back and watch your 5 fleets fall into the enemy's encirclement. Johnson had no choice but to continue to deploy nearby warships and defensive platforms to suppress enemy support, and at the same time ordered the ships on the front line in a state of engagement to stabilize and not pursue further, lest he further lure the enemy into the depths.
Who knew that when some warships of the rear defense line rushed to the aid of the friendly forces on the front line and counter-encircled the four fleets of the Longxiang fleet, the Silver Fox fleet, the Polaris fleet, and the Quaidara fleet, the second line of defense was like a streamer, and more Mengya naval fleets were put into the Rutonado star system, which suddenly caused a more serious chain reaction.
Because some of the warships in the second line of defense left their stations, even if there were intact interception facilities, there was not enough firepower to inflict heavy losses on the enemy, so that the Southern Cross fleet, the kaleidoscope fleet, the Sasha fleet, the hellfire fleet, and the Jialan fleet only paid a small price to detonate the second line of defense, which was also the central line of defense, breaking through the defense network in a stepped formation mode, and cutting the forces of the Star Alliance into several units.
Although the Star Alliance Navy has a large number of space-based defense platforms, communication jamming devices, warp speed interception facilities and other defense units, and has a great advantage in the strength of the garrison fleet, it is also caught off guard by the enemy because of the new defeat, the morale is not stable, and it is caught off guard by the enemy, so that there is a lot of confusion on the side of the Star Alliance Navy, and it is dragged down by the opponent's gradient and premeditated attacks, and it is exhausted.
Just let? When Johnson hesitated to send the remaining sub-fleets of the Spartacus Wing, which was closer to the central military port, to rush to the front line, the remaining 3 divisions of the Xudra Legion appeared in several other defense areas on the edge of the star system, and cooperated with the fleets in the central battlefield to launch an unusually ferocious offensive against the nearest defense line, and a large number of manned/unmanned space-based defense platforms were destroyed under the fire of fifth-generation warships.
In addition, according to the latest images captured by the reconnaissance unit, Mackintosh's Flaming Ambition also appeared in the edge of the star system, and began to snipe warp interceptor equipment under the protection of the pro-guard fleet, creating an atmosphere where there were still troops to arrive, adding a little worry to the already panicked Star Alliance Navy.
As the commander of the Monya Navy, the noble 6th prince of the empire, he dared to go to the front line in person, which in itself shows his tough attitude and certainty of victory in this battle. The Star Alliance, the Charles Federation, and the Republic of Dolancs wanted to fight a war of attrition with Monya and eventually drag down the opponent, Mackintosh chose to respond in a blitzkrieg way, crushing the opponent with the superiority and experience of the troops, and piercing the Star Alliance's defense line as soon as possible, firstly, to severely dampen the combat confidence of the Star Alliance's army and civilians, so that there would be civil strife in the well-pampered people's country, and secondly, to set an example for the Sulu Empire, the Phoenix Empire, and the Sauron Empire, inviting them to join this gluttonous feast of wolves.
Of course, even if they can't pull a few other countries into the game, I believe they will make some small moves to seek their own personal interests, so that the Adam government will be tired of coping, and even disagree with the Charles Federation and the Republic of Dolanx, so as to weaken the enemy's alliance, and then seize the opportunity to encourage those anti-war people to carry out large-scale protests and demonstrations, and then force the Star Alliance government to the negotiating table in the shortest possible time, drawing a perfect end to this war.
It's still the same sentence, there are very few stupid people in this world, and there are many smart people. The Star Alliance, the Charles Federation, and the Republic of Dolanx want to use their strengths to attack the shortcomings of Monya and Sulu, and how can Monya and Sulu easily let them succeed.
Standing in Luc? Stillberg's position, the Rutonado star system must not be lost, because once it falls, it will be equivalent to opening the door to the hinterland of the Star Alliance, and the Monya Navy can use this as a springboard to launch attacks on some economic and residential stars, without worrying about being blocked by the Star Alliance Navy to retreat and catch turtles in an urn. At the same time, it can also cooperate with the Sulu Navy to attack the Ayaros-Koplin-Slandar no man's land, completely tear apart the Covenant's frontier defense line, and burn the war inland.
Although the Star Alliance is determined to fight a protracted war, there is a premise, the fighting spirit of the soldiers must be guaranteed. And what Mackintosh wants to fight is precisely their fighting spirit. Let? Johnson thought about it for a long time and issued the latest order, using a large number of space-based defense platforms that spread across the void, as well as six military ports and land-based firepower in the hinterland, to engage the enemy in a guerrilla fight, break the McIntosh blitzkrieg and quickly occupy the military ambition of the Carylland-Rutonado no man's land.
Under such an order, the Star Alliance Navy no longer bothered about whether the defense line was complete, and began to shift from the positional defense mode to the combat policy of combining movement warfare + positional warfare, expanding the scale of the battlefield, and dispersing the Mengya naval forces to form a piece of combat area, so the offensive and defensive war evolved into a big chaos.
The Monya Navy lost the opportunity to break through the face with a point and use momentum and fear to break the fighting spirit of the Star Alliance Navy fleet.
As the defending side, the Covenant Navy has placed a number of military installations in the Rutonado star system. Johnson follows Luc? Stillberg's command, with the Coral Reef as the core, gave full play to the powerful calculation and command performance of the relic equipment, accurately controlled the battleship structure, troop strength, formation, and movement trajectory in each combat area, and carried out reasonable consumption and exchange with the opponent.
The Coral Reef was a semi-ruin warship, which served as the deputy commander of the Spartacus Wing, Vahid? The flagship of the KGMAN was used. Based on its specifications, measurements, and exercise results, the Star Alliance military evaluation agency once made a comparison, and the result was that the Coral Reef was inferior to Woolf, the deputy commander of the Hüdra Regiment. Keith's Gravedigger. But for some reason, the Gravedigger was not found in this crucial battle.
Let? Johnson didn't know what the hell McIntosh was up to, whether it was an opponent or another assignment. In the face of the current war environment, without the Gravedigger to disrupt the situation, the pressure on the Covenant Navy is much less.
In this way, the Monya Navy and the Star Alliance Navy started a meat grinding battle in the vast space environment of the Rutonado star system.
At the expense of space-based defense platforms, the Star Covenant cooperated with land-based weapons and large-scale military facilities to make up for the lack of combat experience and morale, and gradually adapted to the offensive of the Mengya Navy, and began to stabilize its position.
In addition to the Gravedigger, the Xudra Legion also has the Eulogy Chanter, the Canglong, a relic warship, and a semi-ruin warship, due to the battlefield positioning, it can block ten, but it is unable to assist its own warships to fight a hundred battles, so the war situation is scorching.
Seeing that this attack method did not take advantage of anything, Mackintosh immediately changed the battle order, allowing the whole ship to shrink the battle line and carry out cross-guerrilla attacks and wave attacks, so as to disrupt the rhythm of the opponent and make the Star Alliance Navy, which was gradually adapting to the Monya naval offensive, become unsuitable again.
In doing so, the Monya Navy regained the initiative and occupied a certain advantage, but it slowed down the pace of the war even more. Let this offensive and defensive battle around the Rutonado star system become protracted.
Let? Johnson vs. Luc? Stillberg was willing to see what was in front of him, because only this kind of tempering could make the Covenant Navy grow rapidly and become a real combat force, so that his officers and men could restore their confidence in battle, instead of feeling that the Monya Navy was invincible...... At least the navy of one's own country is not an opponent.
Mackintosh could only reluctantly accept this, because his blitzkrieg ended in failure, but because his own navy took the initiative, he was able to wear down and reduce the strength of the Star Alliance navy little by little, and he could see the light of victory.
As the commander of the Hurdra Legion, the Imperial General Laxmi? Modi, according to what he knows about Mackintosh, the cautious and resourceful 6 prince should be more aggressive, but in the following time, His Royal Highness did not issue more active and effective offensive orders as he expected, but maintained the status quo, exchanged time for space, gradually encroached and infiltrated the opponent's defense line based on military strongholds, and steadily advanced towards victory.
He thinks that this may be because Mackintosh is a person who cares for his life very much, just like the rumors in aristocratic circles, the corners of His Royal Highness's room are wrapped in thick leather, and there is not even a fruit knife for peeling apples in a huge palace, and Halifax once planned to give his brother a few robot maids, but His Royal Highness the Prince refused on the grounds that there is no security.
Because of this character flaw, Colclough I preferred the 4th prince Sonic to the latter.
Laxmi? Modi thinks this is normal, the 13th prince Halifax is a scientific maniac, the 6th prince Mackintosh is wise but afraid of death, and even he himself has small vices that cannot be put on the table, such as ...... I like to smell the smell of my own inner ku. Of course, no one knows about this------ everyone who knows has already seen Lord Shiva.
Different from the previous attack on the Caryland star system, in order to improve the fighting spirit of the Monya Navy, overcome physical and psychological exhaustion, and squeeze out the combat potential, Mackintosh chose to fly the Burning Ambition to the front line in person, so that when the war situation does not develop as expected, it is inevitable that he will make the mistake of being afraid of death, and he is more inclined to a more prudent and conservative strategy than an aggressive strategy.
"Fire Ambition...... Thinking of the name of the relic battleship, and then thinking about Mackintosh's caution and life, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, very helpless and speechless about it.
The battle in the airspace inside the Rutonado star system continues to ferment, and the forces of both sides are constantly being consumed, the wounded and dead on the Star Alliance side are temporarily transferred to underground medical facilities in the interior of the planet, and the Monya side is much simpler, the dead are buried at sea, the lightly injured are simply bandaged and continue to fight, and the seriously injured are included in the containment facility, and the ship is fully manned and flies to the field hospital of the Tiantuk star system. As for the first-aid services provided by medical ships, because of the limited resources, they are a benefit that belongs only to the officer class.
Time passed like the wind, and the flash of artillery fire that permeated the Rutonado star system continued, many people had not closed their eyes for days, many took time to rest while the guns were reloading and the fighters were refueling, and some officers had bloodshot eyes and roared at their subordinates from loud to hoarse, like sandpaper plastered against the skin of a wall.
