Chapter 526: Go to War

The Federation fleet assembled in the star field near the solar system, and lined up in a neat formation, which looked quite like the truth.

At least on the surface, the momentum is very strong, and the defensive network composed of hundreds of warships, combined with the tactics of massive intelligent machine corps and drone swarms, almost makes the defense line airtight.

Claude looked at the picture on the light screen, and his heart was a little more confident again, with such a powerful fleet in his hands, he couldn't think of a reason to be defeated.

"Mr. Commander-in-Chief, the reconnaissance satellite has transmitted an image, 2 million kilometers away from us, and the traces of the mechanical clan troops have been found, and they are now approaching us quickly, and it is expected that (the river crab) will enter the firing range in 3 hours." The Chief of the General Staff reported.

"Good, it's finally here." Claude said confidently, "This is a war that will determine the fate of mankind and the future of the earthlings, as long as we defeat these damn cybbani, there will be no force in the galaxy that can stop us!" ”

The Chief of the General Staff was a little worried: "Mr. Chief, after all, they are mechanical people, their strength should not be underestimated, even Lord Death does not dare to guarantee that they can defeat ......"

Before he could finish speaking, he was rudely interrupted by Claude: "I don't want to hear that name again, he's dead!" ”

The atmosphere in the command room was somewhat awkward, and the Chief of the General Staff opened his mouth, but did not say anything more.

Claude's mood is also bad, even if Mu Chen has been missing for dozens of days, it is almost impossible to survive, but the influence is always there, he feels like he is trapped in a big net, no matter what, he can't get rid of Mu Chen's influence.

And this strengthened Claude's belief that he must win this war, and only a hearty victory can prove his ability.

If you want to replace Mu Chen and sit firmly in the position of the head of the Federation, you must surpass him in terms of achievements and merits, but it is indeed a bit difficult.

Even Claude has to admit that Mu Chen is indeed the best Federation Governor so far, and the Earth Federation is rapidly climbing to unprecedented heights under his leadership.

But Claude is confident that as long as he is given enough time, he will definitely be able to dominate the entire galaxy with a fleet, and even Mu Chen will not be able to compete with him at that time.

Claude's eyes were glued to the curtain of light in front of him, expecting the battle to start soon, he had done everything he had to do, not a single hole was left behind, and now it was time to test the results.

The number on the light curtain representing the distance between the enemy and the enemy was rapidly shrinking, and Claude's heart gradually rose, success or failure was in this move, he couldn't believe what the consequences would be if he failed, in fact, he had no way out.

It's a big gamble, he can have everything if he wins, but if he loses, the Earth Federation doesn't even have a chance to turn the tables.

Claude would not allow this to happen: 'I want to prove to everyone that I am a better leader than Shepherd!' Under my leadership, the Earth Federation will be able to move towards a very glorious future!'

"Mr. Commander-in-Chief, the enemy's vanguard has 5 minutes to come within range of our fire." The Chief Intelligence Officer reported.

"Notify the major fleets, prepare for battle, and each space fortress will warm up the electromagnetic pulse weapons, and strive to eliminate this group of cyborgs in one fell swoop!" Claude said excitedly.

Claude was a very traditional commander who pursued a preemptive approach to combat, which was in fact effective, at least when attacking the Barbarians, and this tactic played a decisive role, breaking up the formation of the Barbarian fleet in one attack, followed by a one-sided slaughter.

But Claude forgot that his enemy this time was not an interstellar bandit like a barbarian, but a mechanical person with very strong military qualities, although this race also has its own emotions, but it can control its emotions very well, and its sanity is hardly like a normal person.

This is also a characteristic of the automatons, in the final analysis, they are still the autonomous consciousness evolved from data, rationality occupies more of the position of the brain, even if they encounter a crisis, they will calm down faster, and their collective consciousness can quickly formulate countermeasures, and even the step of transmitting orders is omitted.

Claude's tactics of taking the lead had some effect, and before the vanguard of the Machines could gain a foothold, they were hit by dozens of waves of electromagnetic pulses, and almost all of them were wiped out.

"Hahaha, what a powerful automaton, but that's it!" Claude smirked.

"Mr. Chief, we only eliminated the vanguard of the Cybzers this time, and the number of enemy troops killed is less than one-tenth of the total......" The Chief of Staff reminded him very unfamiliarly, no way, he didn't want to spoil the fun, but it was his duty.

Claude's face was obviously a little dissatisfied, if he hadn't fought side by side with this bastard for many years, he really wanted to drive the other party out, it was too blind, couldn't he let Lao Tzu be proud for a while?

But Claude, who was very deep in the city, still squeezed out a smile, and pretended to be gratified and said: "The chief of staff is a calm person, you are right, the battle has just begun......

Claude forced himself to calm down, but his pounding heart reminded him that he was in a state of great excitement.

"Made, the EMP weapon is too strong, no wonder that Mu Chen guy is reluctant to fully equip this weapon, if I hadn't narrowed the defensive line, I'm afraid that the round of attacks just now would have accidentally injured a lot of friendly soldiers!"

Although this round of attacks has some firepower, in fact, only half the firepower is enough

to destroy the vanguard of the Cybtons, but Claude did not regret it at all, believing that the enemy on the other side had been frightened stupidly.

Claude was about to give the order for the whole army to attack, but suddenly heard the intelligence officer's report: "A large number of mechanical warships are approaching, and the speed is very fast, far exceeding the number of the previous vanguard forces. ”

"How is this possible?" Claude was a little surprised, "Aren't these cyborgs afraid of death?" Didn't that scare them? ”

Unbeknownst to Claude, the word "fear" does not have the word "fear" in the minds of the mechanical warriors, and before going to battle, they will isolate emotions such as fear, anxiety, and panic and switch to combat mode.

The cyborg people in this mode are not afraid of death, and they will never take half a step back even in the face of electromagnetic pulse waves, so how can they be frightened......

"Quick, hurry up and charge the EMP weapon, under the attack of this weapon, the mechanical clan is not coming to die as many as possible?" Claude said excitedly.

The weapons officer on the side was a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry Mr. Chief, the EMP weapon has been overloaded, and it must be cooled down before it can continue to be used......"

"How long will it take?" Claude asked dissatisfied, frowning.

"Great, about 12 hours......" The weapons officer whispered the untimely news.

"Damn, 12 hours, why didn't you say it earlier!" Claude was a little panicked, he really didn't expect that the buffer time of this new weapon would be so long.

Every second on the battlefield of space can be precious, let alone 12 hours, and sometimes 5 minutes is enough to decide the outcome of a battle.

Claude finally regretted his previous "squeeze", if he saved a little, maybe he could inflict another heavy damage on the enemy army now, but now he can only watch the opportunity slip away from him.

"Attention of all units, prepare for engagement, open the take-off channel, and the flight unit will immediately take to the air to assist the drone swarm and the intelligent machinery unit to clear the enemy army!" Claude made the right judgment, and now he can only fight hard

Countless warplanes lined up through the take-off aisle and quickly entered the battlefield to meet the mechic army in front of them.

And the drone swarm and the intelligent machine unit have already exchanged fire with the enemy, but as soon as they make contact, they find that something is wrong.

In the past, the forces of the Earth Federation were always one-sided, and the battle was overwhelming from beginning to end, and the multi-arms of the armed forces composed of fighters, drones and intelligent machinery units coordinated operations, like an airtight city wall, with the long-range heavy fire support of the warships in the rear, even the swarm could not break through such a defensive line.

But the situation is different now, judging from the results of the battle, the Federation fleet is actually on the inferior side......
