Chapter 374: Mixed Fish and Dragons
Dozens of Proxima Centauri superships start their jump engines at the same time, creating enough jump lanes for three Battlestars to pass through at the same time.
This is the convenience brought by science and technology, the original voyage of more than a month, almost instantaneously arrived, if the Earth Federation can have this technology, I am afraid that the whole universe will have the footprints of earthlings.
The Reaper quickly entered the jump channel, and the space instantly began to distort and become a little dazzling, but it only lasted for a short time, and when it regained its sight again, the fleet had already appeared outside the solar system.
"Lord Death, we have arrived at the predetermined location, and according to the information provided by the cyborgs, the Zerg army will be within 72 hours of our firing range." The intelligence officer reported to Mu Chen.
"Send minelayers to the (XXX, XXX, XXX) area to place electromagnetic sky mines and give our enemies a welcome salute." Mu Chen said aloud.
This electromagnetic thunder is a weapon recently developed by the Earth Federation, and the principle of mine mines, but it is used on the space battlefield, the sky thunder is installed with an induction device, once it senses that there is a zerg passing by, it will actively adsorb the past, and then a violent explosion occurs, the cost is low and powerful, it is also easy to recover, and the safety factor is also good.
In this operation, the size of the Zerg army is much larger than before, but the Earth Federation has long been different from what it used to be, and its strength has increased by leaps and bounds, so Mu Chen does not plan to launch a surprise attack secretly, but chooses to use a frontal and tough way to see if the Earth Federation can have an advantage in the case of a hard encounter, which is very important for future battles, after all, after this time, the Reaper fleet will counterattack the Zerg.
"Let the crew seize the time to adapt to the adjustment, give them a day off, relax, don't always strain your nerves, it is difficult to play your strength if you are too nervous." Mu Chen reminded loudly.
"It's been arranged, don't worry." The deputy commander, the wolf girl, replied earnestly.
This woman is very strange, she always looks cold during the mission, giving people a feeling that no one is close, but Mu Chen has had many intimate contacts with her before she finds out that she is actually a little M, who is more open than anyone else in bed, always willing to satisfy all Mu Chen's curiosity, and enjoy it.
Mu Chen smiled and said no more, and continued to arrange the pre-war preparations.
Countless reconnaissance satellites have been released, and ultra-long-range radars have been turned on, constantly scanning the direction of the target to prevent the Zerg army from suddenly changing course.
The Zerg have a very interesting characteristic, they seem to be tendons, their brains are not very good at turning, and the way the army advances is also straight, almost always choosing the nearest route to advance, not going around in circles at all, not talking about strategy.
But this is also a good thing, if the Zerg can also learn to play tactics and strategies, I am afraid that other civilized races in the universe would have been completely extinct.
All the warships completed the jump, and according to the plan made before, they entered the designated positions one after another, forming an impermeable U-shaped encirclement, just waiting for the Zerg army to come to the door.
[Princess Carol asks for a call, is it connected......]
Mu Chen frowned, a little dissatisfied in his heart, but he still connected the call.
"Mr. Mu Chen, I think you ......" Princess Carol had just opened her mouth when she was interrupted by Mu Chen without hesitation.
"I don't need you to think that since this battle is commanded by Lao Tzu, then everything is subject to my arrangement, if you are not willing to accept it, you can withdraw from this battle!" Mu Chen said with a cold face, he has really saved face for this woman recently
, so much so that before the war, she actually ran to look for trouble.
"You, you ......" Princess Carol's face changed, and she said with some grievances, "I just want to help as much as I can, and if I don't appreciate it, why are I so fierce?" ”
"In the battles I command, there is no need for any other voice than mine, this is the last time I remind you, if you dare to question my decision again, then don't blame me for depriving Proxima Centauri of the right to go to war!" Mu Chen finished his words in a cold voice and ended the call without hesitation.
With the addition of the alien fleet, the firepower has indeed improved a lot, but relatively, the difficulty of commanding the operation has been greatly increased, which is like the difference between the miscellaneous army and the regular army, even if the regular army has a small number and weak firepower, but the overall combat capability is much stronger than the more numerous miscellaneous army, and it is too difficult to make this group of alien fleets obey the command like the Earth Federation fleet.
"Lord Death, since the Proxima Centauri are willing to take on more responsibilities, it is better to hand over the task of the main attack to them, so that our fleet can be easier." The Chief of Staff proposed in a low voice, apparently knowing that his opinion was somewhat unacceptable.
Just because it's embarrassing doesn't mean it's not a good connection, but it means having Proxima Centauri's fleet as cannon fodder, and a layman like Princess Carol commanding the battleship doesn't have to think about it to know that it will definitely cause a lot of sacrifices.
Either way, Proxima Centauri are allies of the Earth Federation, so you can't just watch them die.
Mu Chen glared at the chief of staff coldly, he was very dissatisfied with his suggestion, and pushed the friendly troops into the fire pit in order to save trouble, what is the difference between this and shooting at his teammates from behind?
"Don't mention this kind of bad idea in the future!" Mu Chen reprimanded in a cold voice, "Let the friendly army who has lost his mind go to death, Lao Tzu can't do such a thing!" ”
The chief of staff had no choice but to bow his head and apologize, and said nothing more.
Princess Carol has obviously become a little impatient because of the matter of recovering her homeland, which is also human nature, after all, defeating the Zerg and recovering the lost territory of the Centauri galaxy is the wish of all Proxima Centauri, and it is also the regret that the deceased His Majesty Carlos still remembers before his death, seeing that hope is at hand, Princess Carol is not incomprehensible in her eagerness, but a qualified commander should not be affected by emotions, which will bring unnecessary casualties to the fleet.
The reason why Mu Chen pressed the fleet of Proxima Centauri to the rear and arranged the position for them was also in the outermost layer of the fleet group, because he didn't want them to do anything impulsive, and if the battle went well, he didn't even want Proxima Centauri to participate in the war.
On the one hand, it is out of the protection of friendly forces, and on the other hand, it does not want to let the allies who have lost their minds affect the situation of the battle.
Mu Chen also has a worry, the scale of the invading Zerg army this time is very large, and it is not a problem to defeat them, but it is still very difficult to completely eliminate the Zerg without leaving any behind, in case the Zerg army is scattered and let them flee in all directions, and then it is a very troublesome thing to find out and destroy them all.
According to the plan, at the beginning of the battle, it is necessary to hit the firepower, directly destroy a Zerg planetary base, and eliminate the living force of the Zerg as much as possible.
These things have been told to Princess Carol many times, but the problem is that this stubborn woman simply does not listen.
"I hope this Carol doesn't make trouble for Lao Tzu......" Mu Chen sighed and said with some worry.
Although Mu Chen was the commander-in-chief of this operation, these alien fleets did not belong to the Earth Federation after all
Bang, the execution of orders is more than a star and a half worse than that of the Earth Fleet, and Mu Chen doesn't expect them to obey orders 100%, just don't make trouble for themselves.
In fact, this battle, the Earth Federation fleet is enough to deal with, but the enthusiasm of the interstellar refugees is very high, and it seems a little unkind not to let them participate in the war, after all, each of them has a deep hatred for the Zerg, and this hatred is irrepressible.
"It is reported that the forward reconnaissance satellite shows that an unidentified aerial vehicle is approaching at high speed." The intelligence officer reported loudly to Mu Chen, pulling Mu Chen back from his thoughts.
"Flying machines? Are you sure it's not the vanguard of the Zerg? Mu Chen asked a little strangely.
"I'm sure it's not the Zerg, the picture has been sent back."
An image captured by a reconnaissance satellite was projected onto a light curtain in front of it, a large warship shuttling at sub-light speed.
"Isn't this the Angel Clan's large Flying Shuttle Radiance? Why did this group of birdmen come here? Mu Chen's brows furrowed, a little confused about their intentions.
"Send a communication signal to ask about the Celestial's intentions!"
The call was quickly accepted, and an angel man with wings stretched appeared on the light curtain.
"Hello Mr. Mu Chen, I'm Captain Lie Yao of the Shenghui Shuttle." Lie Yao had a warm smile on his face, but he felt a little cold, which made people very uncomfortable.
"How did you angels come to the star field of the solar system? Is it possible that you want to take advantage of the fire to rob? Mu Chen asked unceremoniously with a cold face.
"No, no, Mr. Mu Chen is too worried, I heard that the Earth Federation is in some trouble, and we came here to help." Lie Yao said with a smile.
"Help?" Mu Chen pursed his lips and said disdainfully, "I accepted the kindness, but these zergs don't pose much of a threat to us, so I won't trouble you to take action." ”
I know with my heels that this group of birdmen must be not good, you must know that they are the most grudgeful race, before Mu Chen wiped out the Holy Angel Legion of the Angel Clan, this beam has been settled, the Holy Hui came over at this time, and it would be hellish if there was something good.
"We are also victims of the Zerg, it is the responsibility of all civilized races in the universe to fight against the Zerg, and the Angel Clan is willing to help the Earth Federation survive the difficulties."
"So kind?" Mu Chen looked at the other party's fake appearance and felt uncomfortable, although he couldn't understand the other party's intention, but he definitely wouldn't come to help sincerely.
"That's right, although the Angel Clan has had some unhappiness with the Earth Federation, but that's all in the past, I hope this time we can put aside our prejudices and tide over the difficulties together......"
What this birdman said was better than what he sang, but Mu Chen didn't believe a word, most of the Shenghui was here to pick up the cheap.
Mu Chen's eyes rolled around, and he suddenly had an idea: "The angel clan really impresses me, I didn't expect you to have such a mind, worthy of being one of the five giants." ”
"This is as it should be, Mr. Mu Chen doesn't have to be polite." Lie Yao said with a smile.
"Then let's put aside our prejudices and send these reptiles to hell together!"
At the end of the call, Mu Chen immediately contacted the other two Battlestars, telling them to be vigilant and not to trust these hypocritical birdmen.
"Lord Death, why did these birdmen come here?" The chief of staff asked aloud.
"Why else, it's just to grab some credit...... Mu Chen said angrily, but he laughed, "If you want to take advantage of a good reputation, then you have to see if you have the ability!" ”
