The news of the rebel fleet's arrival in the Lion King Galaxy was like a powerful bomb exploding across the empire, causing countless people to fall into a panic.

With the experience of the War Horse Galaxy, many residents of the Lion King Galaxy immediately fled to other places in large numbers, and all kinds of starships were completely crowded for a while.

At this time, the various airports of the Lion King system have become places where refugees gather, and people are staying in the space city and refusing to leave, as long as a ship arrives, it immediately swarms up, and soon the various ships are crowded.

In order to compete for the opportunity to board the ship, fights and brawls have become commonplace, petty theft is not uncommon, and order has reached the verge of collapse.

The Lion King Galaxy has been plagued by the terrorist activities of the rebels, and this time it is even more overwhelming, the Lion King Galaxy is already in danger, not to mention that the people are afraid, and even the officials are actively looking for a way out.

Meng Kun, the chief of the Lion King Galaxy, learned the lesson of the War Horse Galaxy, and did not dare to support it at all, so he asked the central government for help as soon as possible, and at the same time asked all the troops of the Lion King Galaxy to actively prepare for the battle.

The top brass of the empire did not dare to underestimate the enemy this time, and after some careful study, it was decided to send the 5th Fleet, which was well-equipped and extremely experienced in combat, to reinforce it.

The 5th Fleet can be called the trump card division, and the commander Admiral Feng Kailong is a victorious general, who is very stable, and has the full support of the imperial high-level, so everyone is very optimistic about Feng Kailong's victory in this operation.

Feng Kailong has been the commander of the 5th Fleet for nearly 20 years, and his combat style has always been rigorous, known as the "iron wall", which is also the main reason why he has always been among the first-line generals for so many years.

Before leaving for the Lion King Galaxy, Feng Kailong would discuss the battle plan in detail with the emperor's senior staff officers, and with the painful lesson of the last application, almost everyone agreed with Feng Kailong's strategy of taking the lead step by step and fighting steadily.

Feng Kailong's specific method is to first rendezvous with the fleet of the Lion King Galaxy, and after the rebel fleet enters the Lion King Galaxy, he will fight a decisive battle with the rebel fleet near the planet White Lion.

This plan can be said to be extremely simple, with almost no stratagem, and it is a frontal battle without fancy.

According to Feng Kailong's own words, the current rebel army can no longer be regarded as a rabble, but a regular army, and it is good to use the most conventional methods to deal with the regular army.

In fact, it is difficult to engage in overly complex tactics in the operation of a large fleet, which will only distract one's own forces, and it will also become difficult to command.

After everything was arranged, the 5th Fleet finally set up troops and rushed to the Lion King System, and at the same time, the rebel fleet did not seem to be in a hurry to attack, and stayed at the periphery of the Lion King System to gather fleets, apparently planning to fight the Imperial fleet head-on.

After the 5th fleet arrived in the Lion King Galaxy, it successfully rendezvoused with the fleet of the Lion King Galaxy, and this time Meng Kun, the chief of the Lion King Galaxy, did not hesitate at all, and immediately handed over the command of the fleet to Feng Kailong.

After the 5th Fleet and the Lion King Fleet were reorganized, they set sail to the area of the White Lion Star and began to prepare for a showdown with the rebel fleet.

At this time, the rebel fleet also completed its assembly, and entered the Lion King Galaxy without hurry, heading towards the White Lion Star.

This was the first time the rebels had engaged the Imperial fleet head-on, and both sides were extremely cautious, both defending and marching meticulously, lest they leave any flaws in the other.

After reading the rebels' march route, Feng Kailong couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It seems that there are also veteran generals among the rebels, we must deal with them carefully, and we must not be sloppy." ”

Feng Kailong's staff officers are also experienced people, and after reading the intelligence from all sides, they also came to the same conclusion, the rebel army's combat method is exactly the same as that of the regular army, and I am afraid that the person who commanded the rebel fleet also came out of the emperor.

The fleets of both sides stopped at a distance of about 200,000 kilometers from each other, and then neither continued to advance, but began to arrange their forces and constantly transfer the positions of each ship.

After a day of preparation, the Imperial fleet began to approach the rebel fleet, and the rebels sensed it and began to advance, and the battle between the two sides finally began.

To this end, to investigate the situation of the other side in a timely manner, both sides have sent a large number of drone probes and battlefield satellites, and it can be said that there are not too many secrets for both sides, and the command ability will determine the outcome of the battle.

Feng Kailong looked at the enemy formation on the big screen with a serious expression, trying to find a place to break through. However, the rebels' formation was equally rigorous, leaving no opportunity for the other side to take advantage of, and if this situation continued to develop, this battle would be a hard-fought battle that relied entirely on strength.

Feng Kailong, known as the "Iron Wall", has always liked to defend steadily, and first make himself invincible, as long as he does not lose, he can always find the opponent's flaws, so that he can hold the victory in his hands little by little.

But the opponents encountered today also uphold this principle, and the formation of the entire fleet is completely defensive, so it is a pure war of attrition.

Feng Kailong and the staff officers looked again and again, but still couldn't find any flaws, and the other party seemed to be planning to carry out a war of attrition like this, and had no intention of changing the formation at all.

"Well, in that case, let's fight hard, I'm sure the officers of the 5th Fleet won't let me down." Feng Kailong said helplessly.

"Yes, General!" The officers agreed, and began to arrange for units at all levels in accordance with the most conventional mode of operation.

At this time, the distance between the two fleets has reached 100,000 kilometers, which can be regarded as the extreme attack distance of the fleet.

"Unfold the defensive cover, prepare for the filling of the missiles, preheat the test of the particle cannon......" Without Feng Kailong's order, the officers have begun to skillfully convey various instructions.

There is no need for Feng Kailong to convey orders for an unskilled confrontation like this, and the officers below naturally know what to do, Feng Kailong only needs to spend his energy on strategic thinking, which is also the quality of a mature fleet.

While the officers were busy, Feng Kailong sat quietly in his chair and looked intently at the map of the Lion King Galaxy.

"There's not much room for tactical play, but strategically something can be done." Feng Kailong said secretly: "How to say that this is also our home field, maintenance and supply are our advantages, as long as the timeline of the war is extended, the rebels will be exhausted sooner or later......"

"General, having entered the effective range of long-range missiles, do you want to start attacking?" That's when the adjutant asked.

Feng Kailong nodded and said, "Okay, let's test it with missiles first." ”

"Yes!"

The order for a missile attack was conveyed, and hundreds of warships of the 5th Fleet began firing long-range missiles at the rebel fleet.

Thousands of long-range missiles flew swiftly in the direction of the enemy fleet in the vast and deep universe, and disappeared into the vast darkness in the blink of an eye.

It is impossible to see the specific effects of a missile attack at such a distance, and everything can only be judged by relying on the data sent back by satellites and probes.

The computer quickly displayed the aggregated data on the screen, and everyone knew the results of the missile attack at a glance.

"It seems that the other side has also unfurled its defensive cover, and our missile attack basically missed." An officer said with a frown.

Feng Kailong was not surprised by this result, he should be able to guess when he saw the formation of the opponent's fleet, the commander of the rebel fleet was also a very cautious person, how could he be hit by such a tentative attack.

"It's okay, let's prepare for the next stage of the battle, it seems that we can only fight hard." Feng Kailong said calmly.

The fleets of both sides continued to advance, and soon entered the distance where each other could attack with particle cannons, which was the beginning of the real battle, and at this distance, relying on shipborne particle cannons to attack, the casualty rate of each other was bound to rise rapidly.

"Start locking on to the target!"

"Targeted!"

"The particle cannon has been warmed up!"

"The reaction accelerator reaches the ...... of rated power"

The 5th Fleet was preparing for the attack in an orderly manner from top to bottom, and everyone was doing their part, so that the whole fleet ran perfectly like a machine.

"Front fleet, start attacking! Particle cannon fired! ”

The battleship in front of the fleet formation took the lead in attacking, and hundreds of crimson pillars of light shot out from the particle cannon muzzles, through the dark and cold void, towards the rebel fleet.

At the same time, the rebel fleet also began to fire particle cannons, and the same pillars of light were also shot towards the 5th fleet, and the pillars of particle cannon light on both sides staggered past each other, and any object in the area would be destroyed immediately.

"Boom!"

The first particle cannon fire on both sides hit the defensive shield, and most of the energy was absorbed and reduced by the defensive shield, and only a very small amount of rays could pass through the defensive shield, but it was no longer enough to damage the ship.

The so-called defensive shield is actually a kind of energy field, which can absorb and disperse the attacks of energy weapons, mainly used to defend against particle cannons and lasers, and will also play a role in destroying and interfering with missiles, which is the main defense means of the fleet.

However, the defensive cover is not omnipotent, and it has little effect on weapons such as mecha and fighters, and once the mecha and fighter break through to the vicinity of the battleship, the defensive cover will not play any defensive role.

The most important thing is that the defensive shield needs to consume a lot of energy, and it is impossible for the defensive shield of any warship to withstand medium-to-long and frequent attacks, and once the energy is nothing more than a continuous supply, the defensive shield will not play its due role.

Therefore, the fleet will also take this into account when arranging its tactics, and will not let some ships always be in the front, but adopt a rotational method, and after the attack of the ships in the front row, they will move to the back row to recharge the weapons and defensive shields, and their positions will be taken by other ships.

In this way, the rotation allows the fleet to maintain its combat effectiveness for a long time, and does not quickly run out of energy from the ships.
