769.The Battle of the First
"What a terrible opponent, such a level of technology, as well as the bravery of the warriors, is not inferior to the empire at all!" Seeing the situation on the battlefield, there were finally imperial generals who began to pay attention to their opponents.
Someone also frowned and said, "Indeed, the universe is so big that there is no shortage of civilizations that can compete with empires, let alone if the situation is true." Is the Protoss a race that fought with the Zerg at its peak? In this way, it will not be much worse than the Empire. ”
Yes, in the face of the situation of the Zerg, the generals here are all present, and the strength of the Zerg is beyond doubt. If it weren't for the death of the master, the entire insect swarm would lose its unified command and become a plate of scattered sand, and in the end, if it was hard to face each other, even if there were a few more empires, it would still be difficult to guarantee that the sea of insects would not be drowned.
Of course, the most dignified person here is undoubtedly Istta. Because he is the one who has been in contact with the Master. At that time, the activity of the dominant mind, the universe of the dominant mind, Ishtar, was absolutely able to fully comprehend it.
It was while the officers of the empire were discussing that the situation on the battlefield also changed subtly.
When the Imperial fleet changed and completed the formation, the coalition fleet columns marched in unison, inserting into the Imperial formation like sharp knives.
The phalanx of the Imperial fleet was cut into countless pieces at once. Fortunately, these are defensive formations, and each phalanx is methodical and as solid as masonry.
Facing the coalition fleet interspersed, entering his own forward defensive formation, seeing the imperial commander here, he showed a cold smile: "Napoleon, who was invincible back then, suffered a crushing defeat at Waterloo, and it was the cavalry that encountered the phalanx and was caught off guard by the main force that was ambushed. Is it time to recreate the classic World War again? ”
The modern tactical system is completely based on the evolution of the past and generation after generation of tactics, although it cannot be said that it is completely copied, but because it is the same civilization, it is a system that has been inherited in the same vein.
But before the Imperial Commander could laugh, his smile froze. Because he saw that the fleet of the coalition forces was doing a big maneuver!
How so? Do you still remember that when the Tylen Empire, in order to encircle and annihilate the main frontline of the Haiji civilization, after using the "blitzkrieg" to surprise attack the Kanta Empire, it used the "revolving door tactic" to cut off the retreat of the main force of the Haiji civilization and make dumplings in one go?
I didn't expect that the current coalition forces would be able to play such a hand on the battlefield in a head-to-head confrontation. The coalition fleet that rushed into the phalanx didn't say anything about it first, and then I saw that the coalition forces transferred all the way out of the division and made a big roundabout posture, wanting to enter the imperial formation diagonally from both sides of the battlefield, wanting to cut off the connection between the front and the rear!
"MD, it's been put on the table!" The commander of the Imperial Army, seeing this big maneuver tactic, immediately reacted. The order said: "Let the fleets on both wings make a defensive posture and block the coalition fleet!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the enemy forces on the star map changed again.
Because the total fleet of the coalition army is larger than that of the imperial army, the number of troops is more abundant. Just when the Imperial Army responded to the enemy, the main force of the coalition forces also changed, a typical "human" herringbone battle formation.
It seems that the coalition forces are very determined to fight and want to use this battle to show their momentum. After all, this is the first Grand Fleet battle between the two sides, and victory is needed to motivate!
Such changes in occupation were fed back to Ishtar one after another. You must know that he has experienced a hundred battles, what is the situation like, of course, he can see it at a glance: "I didn't expect that the will of the coalition forces to fight is more tenacious than imagined?" And the tactics are used properly, it looks like the coalition forces have clever commanders! ”
Of course, what made Isha aware was that General Green, a veteran of the battlefield, did not expect to be led by the nose by the other party.
Ista was beside him, and a military staff officer said to him: "Your Majesty the Emperor, our troops are less than our opponents, do we want to send support?" ”
Here Ista chose to nod, because the number of his own troops was less than that of the opponent, which was indeed the reason for passive restrictions, and there was no way to mobilize more troops. The remaining forces need to be calculated at all times, and there is no way for the commander to show his strength.
"Let the brothers of the tiger and leopard ride on! The last time I encircled the reinforcements, they made a soy sauce, and that guy complained a lot in my ear. Let them kill enough this time! ”
The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is a ranger formation, mostly cruisers and cruisers, which can be regarded as a branch below the elite of the "Tiger" class. Combat is mainly flexible and tough, focusing on the fierceness of the tiger and the speed of the leopard. Many of the members are elites who have gone through countless battles, and each of them is quite brave.
After they appeared on the battlefield, they did not cooperate with the main battle forces of the empire, but were mavericks themselves. Take a detour from the edge of the battlefield, then use tactical shifts to leap behind the coalition forces and attack coalition carriers, supply ships, and medical ships. Many of these ships, which were not much armed defense, were destroyed on the spot.
By the time the coalition forces brought in rearguard forces to besiege and kill the tiger and leopard cavalry, they had already used the leap and disappeared into the battlefield. Whenever they appeared, they were always able to fight the coalition forces by surprise, and every time it was a soft underbelly. It also made the coalition fleet, which wanted to besiege and kill, have to be tired of coping, and once achieved considerable results.
Ishtar laughed and said, "The advantages of tiger and leopard riding, mobility and flexibility, have been brought into full play." Whenever it is shot, it is quite ferocious and abnormal, worthy of the Ranger unit known for the bravery of the tiger and the agility of the leopard! ”
Of course, the eye-catching performance of the tiger and leopard riding did not last long. Because the Tyranid Empire will increase its troops, won't the coalition side not?
Immediately, I saw a coalition fleet dedicated to the arrival of the tiger and leopard cavalry. Their task is obvious, which is to keep an eye on the appearance of the tiger and leopard riders, and they will quickly arrive wherever the tiger and leopard riders appear.
In this way, the number of victories that the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry was able to achieve was rapidly reduced, and after encountering the attack of the coalition forces, it was inevitable that there would be casualties.
Later, the Tyranid Empire also sent several more troops to join the battle as reinforcements. However, there are also additions on the part of the same coalition forces, and if the result of such an increase in troops is to become a refueling tactic.
This is a taboo in any case, and the Tyranid Empire has no intention of defeating the opponent in a battle, so it is the first to issue the retreat order.
