After receiving the order, the reserve fleet immediately abandoned its previous plans, accelerated and lowered its altitude, and rushed to the second interception point at full speed.

One o'clock and four seconds later, the Sirius, which was far away on the other side of the earth, received an order from the joint command to the reserve fleet, and Gao Kai's brows immediately furrowed: "Give me a picture of the first fleet outside the earth!" ”

"Yes!" Duan Zhiyang agreed, immediately switched the satellite frequency band, and soon found the real-time monitoring screen of the first fleet outside the country.

Gao Kai carefully stared at the enemy on the screen: "What is the enemy's movement?" ”

Duan Zhiyang said: "There is no news about this for the time being. ”

"Not at all?" Gao Kai asked reluctantly, "I mean after the reserve fleet has accelerated. “

"Probably not." Duan Zhiyang called up the records of the satellite and compared the data of the first fleet outside the country, "You see, the height of the enemy army began to decline not long ago, but the speed has been very stable, and there is no change before and after the acceleration of the reserve fleet. ”

Gao Kai's eyebrows deepened: "This is not a good phenomenon...... Pick me up at the joint command, I want to talk directly to the commander! ”

"Yes!" Duan Zhiyang agreed, and the communication was immediately connected, Huo Qiang appeared on the screen, and twelve observers from the base group lined up, brushing their presence behind Huo Qiang like a background wall.

Gao Kai hurriedly saluted: "Commander, I received an order from the command to the reserve fleet. ”

Huo Qiang said: "Don't beat around the bush, if you have any ideas, just say it." "He's not a person who likes to beat around the bush, and now he's fighting fiercely with the Terrach, and he's not in the mood to talk nonsense.

Gao Kai said: "Commander, I think that the reserve fleet must slow down!" ”

Huo Qiang was stunned: "Why?" ”

Not only Huo Qiang, but the twelve observers who acted as the background wall all pricked up their ears...... Being proficient in Chinese is the basic condition for being an observer, if you can't even understand what Huo Qiang says, you still interfere with a fart?

Gao Kai immediately replied: "Commander, the position of the reserve fleet is tens of thousands of kilometers lower than that of the enemy's second fleet, advancing at full speed, it will definitely be able to take place between the arrival of the enemy army, and it is in place in advance, but Commander, do you pay attention, the speed of the enemy has always been the same, if I am the enemy, I will definitely maintain the current speed, and after the reserve fleet flies away, then turn to the moon, then the reserve fleet will not be able to come back at all, even if it comes back, it will take time, then the moon will be dangerous!" ”

"So what do you think? Withdraw the reserve fleet? Huo Qiang asked.

Gao Kai said: "It's best to keep the speed, it's not fast or slow, you can't sell the moon to the enemy!" ”

Huo Qiang was silent for a moment and said: "Your worries are indeed justified, but have you thought about it, if the reserve fleet is not leaving, what will the enemy think?" ”

This time, Gao Kai was stunned, he was so preoccupied with the safety of the moon that he really didn't think about it in this direction.

After thinking for a moment, Gao Kai had an answer: "If you keep a proper distance all the time, it is possible that the enemy's two fleets will reunite!" ”

"That's right, that's it!" Huo Qiang said, "The enemy is strong and I am weak, and it is beneficial for us to divide the enemy's forces, once the enemy forces reunite, can our fleet stop it?" ”

Gao Kai pursed his lips: "Even if the fleet is exhausted, you can't let the moon fall into the hands of aliens!" ”

The position of the moon is too important, it is a springboard for human beings to enter space, once it falls into the hands of aliens, human beings will lose the only warship manufacturing base, and then aliens will be able to put humans who have gone into space back to Earth.

It is true that humans have rockets, electromagnetic orbital launchers, and orbital elevators, and even if there is no moon, they can still enter space from the ground.

But without the moon, the materials needed for the space program need to be transported from the ground, think about it, a warship weighing hundreds of thousands of tons, all the raw materials have to be sent from the ground to space, what a terrible scene, the transportation cost of a warship, can drag down the finances of all countries in the world, even if all countries are rationed, it can't stand.

You can't build warships, let alone form a fleet, and at that time, humanity will become a toothless tiger, and you can no longer threaten aliens, let alone form an expeditionary force.

On the contrary, the aliens have a springboard to attack the earth, and they can attack and retreat or defend, either by swinging their troops to attack the earth, or by temporarily holding back and waiting for Saturn and Jupiter to redevelop before making plans.

Of course, without the moon, there is still Beichenzhou in the northern capital, but Beichenzhou is far away in Mercury, which is really beyond the reach of the whip.

Huo Qiang said: "The moon really can't fall into the hands of aliens, but it's not so easy for the enemy to knock down the moon, according to your idea, leaving the reserve fleet on the moon can indeed play a certain role, but think about it the other way, what if the enemy abandons the moon and the fleet merges to attack the earth directly?" If the fleet is exhausted, what is the use of leaving only the moon? ”

Speaking of this, Huo Qiang breathed a sigh of relief: "Gao Kai, I understand your thoughts, but the earth is more important than the moon, and it takes a fleet to defend the earth, and I would rather use the moon to attract the enemy's fleet than see our fleet and the enemy fight to the death." ”

Gao Kai was silent for a while before he said: "Commander, I seem to understand a little, the enemy is likely to deliberately approach the moon, and then use the method of dividing forces to attract our attention...... Two schemes and one aircraft carrier, really insidious! ”

He didn't know if his guess was right, but it was the only one that could explain why the enemy was so close to the moon.

"Good calculation!" Huo Qiang didn't laugh angrily, "Since that's the case, then let's also make a plan." ”

Gao Kai suddenly thought of something: "Commander, you want to use the moon to attract the enemy?" ”

"Yes!" Huo Qiang nodded.

Since the development of the moon, the northern capital has always regarded the moon as a super fortress, whether it is the South Moon Continent or the North Moon Continent is militarized management, there is no shortage of defense facilities on the moon, even if the aliens hit the moon, they can hold on for a while, maybe they can make the foreign fleet sink into the sand.

Gao Kai was a little anxious: "Commander......"

Huo Qiang waved his hand to stop Gao Kai: "The moon has no atmosphere, and there are so many weapons prepared, whether it is calculated as a capital account or a military account, it is more cost-effective for the moon to fight against the enemy army than the earth against the enemy army, what do you say?" ”

Gao Kaixin has let you say everything, what else do you want me to say?

The earth has indeed been prepared for a long time, but the earth is wrapped in a thick atmosphere, and any ground weapon must first break through the atmosphere before it can threaten the extraterrestrial fleet, and even the laser has to overcome the interference of the atmosphere, and it is not an ordinary passive to fight.

The moon is different, everything is exposed to a vacuum, the gravitational pull is only one-sixth of that of the earth, and the congenital conditions are much better than the earth, no matter how you look at it, the moon is more dominant.
