626.Battle of Heidelberg
The Tyranid Empire, the main fleet.
General Les arrived at the Heidelberg planet area, began to contact the enemy with the information of the battle, and immediately submitted it to Istta: "Your Majesty the Emperor, the latest information from the front, the fleet of General Les and General Green, has arrived at the planetary range of Heidelberg. Fighting the fleet of the Haiji civilization! ”
After Ishtar received the information, he immediately took it in his hand and flipped through it, examining the information in detail.
According to his thoughts, the fleet in the hands of General Les, although it is considered a main fleet, has a huge force of more than 100 capital warships. However, the enemy has thousands of ships, and this disparity in power is too great.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, after the arrival of General Les's fleet, it should be able to alleviate the enemy's offensive on the planet Heidelberg." Carolina stepped forward and said, "According to the plan of Warfield and Wang Xu, they will abandon remote and undefensible areas and concentrate on fighting the enemy in the streets. ”
In contrast, from the overall strategic point of view, Carolina is much more optimistic about the strategic advantage. Because in her opinion, as reinforcements arrive at the planet Heidelberg, it means that they will definitely have a greater advantage in winning the entire battle!
However, the staff officer was a little more rigorous: "General Les's fleet belongs to the elite of our country, and it has the best weapons and equipment. But this does not mean that you can do more with less! What's more, judging from the current situation, the enemy's attack on the planet Heidelberg has not been lifted, and we cannot be blindly optimistic. ”
Hearing the words of Carolina and the military staff officer, Isha was obviously inclined to the latter: "That's right, good weapons and equipment don't mean victory!" Don't forget, when we were at war with the Federation, we also didn't have a technical advantage for a long time, but in the end we won the final victory. ”
"Warfield and General Wang Xu, what are you playing: soldiers are not tired of deceit, and soldiers are dangerous? Concentrate forces to fight street battles. This was a very risky move, and if the enemy had the determination to carry out a fierce naval bombardment of the city of Heidelberg, who could say how long they could hold out? ”
Soldiers take risks, that is, they will take risks, and they need to take risks! Ishtar does not want to lose the strategic importance of the planet Heidelberg.
However, judging from the information obtained so far, although the arrival of General Les's troops on the battlefield attracted some of the enemy's attention, it was not able to achieve very desirable results because of the huge disparity in strength.
Ishtar ordered: "What about our vanguard? Where are they? Let them speed up to the aid of the planet Heidelberg, and if they delay the fighter, they will be severely punished! ”
Generally speaking, he will not bring up the military law, after all, everyone knows him well about the orders of the army. So as long as it was an order he gave it, the generals would not dare to disobey it. But the necessary reminder can still add a whip to the fast horse.
As the main fleet of the Tyranid Empire, it has begun to be equipped with a large number of new interstellar warships, named after the late Admiral "Minotaur" after the capital ships of this class. Warfield's flagship, the Helios, is a series of new models of actual combat lead ships.
Theoretically, there are more firepower, thicker armor, and faster speed. The base speed of the "high-speed battleship" is only according to the assumption of the Tyranid Empire, but it is called: battle cruiser!
As mentioned earlier, the dispatch of the previous troops is a wide range of new warships equipped with such new warships. In terms of speed, it can indeed be said that it is quite fast, but judging from the star map, it seems that there is still a considerable distance from the front-line theater in Heidelberg.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, although the performance of the new warship has been verified since the time of the civil war. However, after years of technological evolution and application, there are still some immature places, so don't rush here. ”
Here's the adjutant's explanation, but you can also think about it. But this could not be a reason to delay the march. Carolina said: "The soldiers are very fast, as His Majesty the Emperor said just now, General Les's fleet may not be able to relieve the siege of Heidelberg, and in the face of the enemy with superior forces, it may also encounter danger. If our main fleet cannot reach it, we can only pin our hopes on the vanguard! ”
Carolina said this question, and the staff officer agreed. Immediately, he spoke to Ista again: "Your Majesty, I agree with General Carolina's words, our main fleet is too large to move forward too fast. Only look at the vanguard team! ”
Ishtar knew the adjutant's concerns, but now the military situation mattered, as Carolina said, and the soldiers should be fast! So after weighing the pros and cons, he said: "Praya, do you have confidence in our new capital warship?" ”
"Of course!" The lieutenant expressed confidence: "Starships are the largest, most complex, and most expensive military weapons of any civilization. Whether it is R&D or construction, it will definitely be selected, and the process and technology that have been mastered or begun to mature. ”
When the new warship was developed, it was developed through improvements and upgrades based on the essence of warship technology that had been acquired by many of them. Theoretically, there won't be much of a problem!
It's just that in some novel frameworks and architectures, the essence of these core technologies can be perfectly compatible. After all, a starship is not a home computer host, and all the hardware can be pieced together to light up and turn on. Because it is too large and complex, the effective and perfect performance of the real performance of the starship still needs to be tested and verified by time!
When Ishtar saw the adjutant's expression, he immediately nodded and responded: "Very good, if that's the case, choose to believe it!" I hope that the new warship you design and build can get off to a good start! ”
Don't use suspicious people, don't suspect people.
It's not a conspiracy, but it's in line with Ishtar's character, who is willing to give power to someone who has the ability. How much more so is it the person he believes in?
Seeing that Ishtar had said this, the adjutant stopped saying anything. "I know, Your Majesty the Emperor, I believe that General Gore and General Eva will definitely command my new warship and kick the enemy's ass hard!" ”
Listening to what the adjutant said, Isha also smiled: "Don't worry, it will be." ”
