Chapter 311: The Great War Begins
The Blood Maple Army has already occupied the Eight Great Domains, and it is always on guard against the counterattack of the forces of the Central Star Domain.
Reconnaissance stations began to be placed in many places to monitor the areas that had already been occupied, so that whenever an enemy fleet entered their area, they would be able to know at the first time, so as not to be caught off guard by the enemy.
And in many places began to build fortifications, semi-automatic defensive weapons such as space laser cannons.
This kind of equipment can be controlled from a distance without the need for human control.
While the Blood Maple Army was busy preparing for the battle, the new crusading army in the Central Star Domain had completed its assembly.
At this time, it had been three days since the last emergency meeting, and all the preparations had finally been completed, and everything was ready.
This time, the crusading army occupied sixty percent of the military strength of the central star field, and the ten marquis-level forces plus half of the strength of each king-level force could be said to be very amazing, so it can be seen that they attached great importance to the Blood Maple Army and did not dare to underestimate the enemy.
The previous crusaders had all been lost, and they had already felt broken, and they didn't want to make the mistake of underestimating the enemy again.
This time, there were more than 400 battleships, more than 3,000 cruisers, and other small warships and transports, and there were nearly 3,000 in number, and a fleet of more than 6,000 ships was assembled.
The number of troops dispatched this time reached more than 50 million, and it can be said that in addition to resisting the encirclement and suppression of government troops, it was the first time that such a large number of troops were mobilized to deal with one force.
Due to the large number of cruisers and battleships, the firepower will be very strong, and the strength of this crusading army is comparable to the strength of a first-class force.
Although it is rumored that the five king-level forces are only second-rate forces, and the eight prince-level forces are only third-rate forces, in fact, every prince-level force has entered the standard of second-rate forces.
And the king-level forces are six or seven times the strength of ordinary Hou-level forces, and there are three Hou-level forces under their command, which is already very close to the first-class interstellar forces.
According to the division, the number of battleships reached 200, then it can be called a first-class force.
There are also strong and weak first-class forces, and above the first-class forces, there are also super forces, all of which are capable of producing battleships independently, and their strength is very terrifying.
Since they can produce battleships, it is enough to show that they have no shortage of battleships, and they can also sell them, and even the federal government has to give them some face.
Because these superpowers are all powerful and powerful, most of them have noble aristocratic status, and their support is indispensable for the rule of the government.
The federation was controlled by the aristocracy, and the presidential candidates were elected from among the five powerful families, who had the supremacy in the federation, that is, the so-called royal family.
These five powerful families were the governments of the five major countries at that time, and later under the pressure brought by the Mel Star people, the five major countries were united and formed
This world still depends on strength, and you are strong enough to gain the respect of others.
The crusading army slowly left the central star field, targeting the five domains that the Blood Maple Army had just occupied, because the Blood Maple Army had just occupied there, and the defense was definitely not strong, and it was the easiest to deal with.
They plan to remove the stronghold of the Blood Maple Army, and then deal with the main force of the Blood Maple Army, if they can meet the main force of the Blood Maple Army, it is the best, they can be solved together.
They didn't attack Yanyue Star right away, because they knew that Yanyue Star was the lair of the Blood Maple Army, and the defense level was definitely the strongest, and it would definitely cost a certain price to capture it.
The attack on the five domains newly occupied by the Blood Maple Army was also to test the depth of the Blood Maple Army and understand the strength of the Blood Maple Army.
Because Long Yun led the team before, there was no information about the Blood Maple Army at all, so they didn't know much about the Blood Maple Army's combat style.
Soon, this mighty fleet entered the Western Regions, and since they had a map of the entire Desolate Black Star Domain, they went directly to the Deep Shark Star, a secondary star in the Western Regions.
This Deep Shark Star was originally the base camp of the Deep Shark Star Thieves Regiment, but now it has been occupied by the Blood Maple Army.
There are more than 20 million inhabitants in the entire Deep Shark Planet, and the Blood Maple Army only has 500,000 people, but the 500,000 army is more than enough to manage more than 20 million people.
Moreover, these residents have been oppressed and exploited by the Deep Shark Star Bandit Group for a long time, and they don't dare to make trouble, but no one dares to make trouble, because those who dare to make trouble are dead.
Moreover, the Blood Maple Army does not disturb the people, allowing these people to live as usual, which makes the residents feel a little more favorable to this force that has replaced the Deep Shark Star Bandit Group.
At least in terms of style, it is much better than the Deep Shark Star Thief Group, the people of the previous Deep Shark Star Thief Group were very arrogant, and it was not uncommon to rob their things.
Moreover, the Deep Shark Star Thieves Group also levies heavy taxes, which is simply a way to live, although many people have crops planted, but most of them are owned by the Deep Shark Star Thieves.
It's barely enough to starve people to death, and every resident lives a very hard life.
As soon as the crusading army entered the Western Regions, it was detected by the soldiers of the detection station, and the squad leader's face changed, and such a large fleet made him feel terrified.
Each station will be hidden in hidden places, some of which are meteorite belts, some of which are the surface of uninhabited planets.
There are at least five or six planets in a star system, and if there are more, there are dozens of planets in a star system, and there is only one monitoring station in two or three star systems, and it is very difficult for the crusading army to find the monitoring station, which is also the cleverness of the Blood Maple Army.
Even if it is discovered and loses a monitoring station, it is nothing to the Blood Maple Army, there are more monitoring stations, anyway, as long as they enter their own territory, the Blood Maple Army can grasp the whereabouts of the other party at any time.
Because there are the "eyes" of the Blood Maple Army everywhere.
Flame Moon Star.
"What? A large fleet has entered the Western Regions from the Central Domain? And go straight to the Deep Shark Star? Lin Luo was taken aback when he received the news from the intelligence department.
Generally, the information obtained by each monitoring station is first reported to the intelligence department, and then the staff of the intelligence department handles it, and some important information is reported to the senior management of Lin Luo and others.
After the intelligence department got the news of the invasion of the crusading army, they contacted Lin Luo and them as soon as possible.
"Yes, our people can see it very clearly, I believe that in another hour, we will be able to reach the Deep Shark Star, we only have 500,000 ground troops there, in the face of such a strong enemy, there is no chance of victory at all, you see that they have not yet reached the Deep Shark Star, do you want our people to retreat quickly, how much can they go." The intelligence officer's tone was very anxious, and he was very worried about the lives of the half a million soldiers.
If they couldn't withdraw in time, how could the 500,000 Blood Maple Army resist this crusading army?
