Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Battle of the Stars I
Big trouble, and not big trouble in general. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The war in the cosmic age is actually very simple, but it is really because of this simplicity that it is particularly cruel. The confrontation of formation, firepower, defense, and logistics, and the conventions formed by tens of thousands of years of fighting with each other, although rigid, have fully formed a rule.
In the face of a neatly formed fleet, a near-perfect fire defense in a short-range defense, for a weakly armored frigate, it is a wall of sighs that borders on despair.
However, the Dark Legion has also been preparing for a long time, and the first to break away from the wind channel are all heavy cruisers with high defense, or frigates with defense as the main development direction.
"Tsk, even heavy cruisers have been dispatched? Order the fleet, attack in formation, and break the enemy individually. Seeing the results of the intelligence analysis given on the radar screen, Ambarrot raised an eyebrow.
This is the border between the Emma Empire and the Freedom Alliance, well, in fact, there is no such thing as a border in the Freedom Alliance, after all, it is just a loose alliance united by commercial treaties.
Compared to the centralized system and the highly unified Emma Empire, the existence of the Orion Business Freedom Alliance is undoubtedly very fragile. This vulnerability is not only in terms of force, but also in terms of political vulnerability, and it can be said that it is not impossible for the entire Freedom Alliance to fall apart if there is even the slightest disturbance.
Thus, when it comes to near-border defense, the approach taken by the Emma Empire and the Freedom Alliance has naturally become two extremes.
The Emma Empire can place one or more legions on the border, equipped with various types of starships, including battleships, to ensure border security. And the Freedom Alliance, in order not to over-irritate the nerves of the Emma Empire, could not even appear heavy cruisers, or even battleships, in the border galaxy.
Originally, the Freedom Alliance was famous for its armed forces composed of a large number of small and medium-sized starships, and although the Freedom Alliance was called the Five Great Empires and the national strength ranking was still above the Klingon Republic, the high-level leaders of the Freedom Alliance were also very aware of their own situation, and as a free alliance, it only existed as a buffer zone between several major powers.
"Formation attack? …… It's a great way to deal with large targets. "Lu Lu didn't know that Ambarrot had given such an order, but from the actions of the mercenaries, he could see his intentions." However, the Dark Legion is a legion that uses space fighters as its main means of attack, and if you compare the number of units alone, the Dark Legion has an absolute advantage. ”
Against the background of dark green space, the flames of explosions flashed from time to time, and the battle entered a white-hot stage from the very beginning, as the main attack, the Dark Legion ignored the casualties of the assault, just to disrupt the formation of the mercenaries, this point, I am afraid Ambarott himself has been aware of it, at this moment, with a certain starship as the core, a certain number of troops have gradually been concentrated.
"The action is too obvious, and it will be covered by a salvo immediately. …… Hey??? ”
If it was the Federation Navy, or the starship army of the Galactic Empire, such a blatant act would definitely be covered by at least half of the fleet's firepower. However, on the battlefield of Andory, the Dark Legion did not show any firepower preparation at all, which made Lu Lu confused.
"Hmm, is it because it's not a regular establishment?" Lu Lu raised his brows, looking at the situation on the battlefield with puzzlement. The Gracia mercenary group did not conceal the concentration of forces, but why did the main force of the Dark Legion who undertook the frontal attack turn a blind eye to such an obvious action.
"No, it's not because of habits or the style of the army, it's just that the commanders on both sides didn't notice the problem." As if in a tone of helplessness, Hayabusa let out a long breath and loosened his tense shoulders weakly.
Although it was a little rude to stay on the Brenhill in absolute safety, it was a little rude to dictate the battle situation, but after three hours of tangled fighting, Lu Lu really couldn't bear to break out.
"What are you kidding, hey, why don't you continue to assault, as long as you go further, Gracia's defense line will completely collapse."
……
It seemed to be a matter of time, the Blue Legion soldiers who were expected to arrive near the battlefield before the frontal battle began did not arrive as scheduled, and the Dark Legion Forward Commander, who was attacking head-on, recklessly left the air tunnel without waiting for confirmation.
From the energy reaction of the wind tunnel in normal space to the starship in the wind tunnel leaving the wind tunnel and entering normal space, this period of about fifteen minutes was enough time for the group of experienced mercenaries to set up their formation.
The blue light swooped down on the starship where the Dark Legion appeared, with the breath of death. This bombardment did not come as expected, and it is common knowledge that everyone in the universe may be attacked at the moment of entering the normal space. More important than the inevitability of being attacked is how much damage you suffer while being attacked, and whether you can fight back in the shortest possible time after being attacked.
Undoubtedly, as a matter of common sense in the universe, this point has become the focus of the training of the armies of various countries or various armed forces. Not to mention that there was no chaos in the dark legions that were attacked, even the Gracia mercenary group was very calm when they saw that the results of the battle were not very obvious.
If it must not be very calm, it is probably the head of the Andori detachment of the Gracia mercenary group, Ambarott, who has the nickname of [bearded], this middle-aged man who is full of fierce atmosphere, spit very dissatisfied, obviously unhappy with the results of his subordinates' attacks.
"There's no way around it, Captain. After all, the guy on the other side is Emma. ”
"Fart, what's the reason for the Emma people on the other side? Even if it's an Emma, you'll have to stab me first. The first and third teams immediately launched a surprise attack, which was nothing more than the vanguard, and the second and fourth teams assembled around the flagship to prepare for the second wave. ”
"Understood. The 1st and 3rd squadrons launched a surprise attack to disrupt the enemy formation, and the 2nd and 4th squadrons prepared for the assault. "The outlier among the mercenaries, the young man who looks infinitely close to the little white face arranges the order very seriously,
"Ah, first mate, don't be so serious, the captain's orders in battle, but they have never changed, even if they are brief, it doesn't matter."
It's because of you who are so stubborn, so the Ambarott Brigade has been established for 30 years, and it is only a third-level brigade. The first mate, who looked like a little white face, opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say what was in his heart.
"Would you like a drink, Anjie?" Ambarott half-squinted and handed the teacup in his hand to the first mate. It's just that after the glass got a little closer, the first mate named An Jie smelled a rich aroma of wine.
"Your Excellency......" An Jie, whose face changed greatly, couldn't help but shout loudly. But now in the middle of the battle, you don't care about the current situation at all? ”
"Don't care, don't care, Anjie. If you look at the current situation, the command or formation is simply meaningless to us mercenaries. Ambarrot laughed, and although the mercenaries on the entire bridge were full of smiles, there was no one who really understood the meaning of Ambarott's laughter.
"Detect duct fluctuations...... Six o'clock, behind us. "The officer in charge of the radar reported to the head of the fleet the moment he discovered the situation.
"What? Six o'clock, isn't that behind us? "When I heard the news, I was most surprised by the youngest looking first mate on the bridge.
"Hmph, I had expected this group of Emma cubs to do this. Turn the rudder and take out the shady bastards behind you. Ambarott put down the cup in his hand, quickly gave the order, and then looked at a certain white-faced first mate An Jie, who was completely stunned. First mate, what are you doing, it's time for you to take charge of the operational orders. ”
"Ahh......h Be. An Jie nervously stood up on his legs, revealing that this young man had been a member of the army, at least he had studied professional courses at the military academy. The second team turned the rudder 180 and the inclination was 16. The third team turned the rudder three hundred and sixty, and the inclination was thirty-two. When the enemy enters the firing range, they open fire at will. ”
"Smack......
"You're stupid." Ambarot slapped Anjie on the head. "I don't know the type and purpose of the enemy, what are you doing when you fire at random instead of wasting ammunition?"
"Tsk, a rookie is a rookie...... The order was changed, and after the rudder turn, the angle of shelling was left vacant. Technical officer, perform quality reverse calculation immediately, immediately. Ambarrot shouted as if he had exhausted all his strength, and although the actions of the crew on the bridge were still the same, the person standing right in front of him, facing [the bearded] Ambarrot, was facing the misery of the end of the world.
In the loud roar of Ambarott, who is known to everyone as "Captain", Anjie's hearing system has been fully tested without its own will. A few minutes later, a buzzing sound still echoed in the mind of a poor rookie first mate, which was very clear that someone's hardware system was running at normal power, but there seemed to be a problem with the central processing system.
"Tsk, it's finally falling." The communications officer looked at the first mate, who had finally fallen after dozens of seconds of persistence, and gloated to notify the medical staff. "Medical squad, go to the bridge to receive the wounded. Ah, that's still the problem...... It's so hard for you. ”
"There's another non-combat attrition on this ship, can you pay a little attention to your actions?" The middle-aged man who served as the captain of the voyage, with an unfathomable smile, added a drink to Ambarrot's teacup. Judging by the label on the bottle, it is the Klingon people's favorite baranto.
"An Jie, this kid, lacks training." Ambarrot looked at the alcoholic beverages that were gradually increasing in the teacup, but shrugged his shoulders unconcernedly.
