Chapter 043: Contact
A fleet of four new ships headed straight for the San Calan Frontier, a voyage of about three weeks. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
During this time, the San Carlan Frontier had officially exchanged fire with the enemy fleet that had entered the unknown land, the enemy fleet had an amazing number of ships and rich combat experience, while the Saint Calan Frontier had a local combat advantage, and was warned by Su Mu half a month in advance, and forced to prepare for war, so that both sides had their own gains and losses.
In terms of the frontier, after the Great War, the outside of the frontier was full of devastation, full of tragic explosion craters with a diameter of several kilometers, the inside of the crater was completely carbonized, and the outside brought about drastic changes in the climate and environment, which caused several days of strange gray-yellow heavy rain in St. Calan.
Of course, this is only the surface, and the protection loss of the energy shield inside the development is not large, just because a rare neutrino missile easily penetrates the barrier protection, and as a result, it razes half of the entertainment area.
The greater losses came from the Freedom Pioneers and their ships, which were not taken seriously despite warnings, and were besieged by enemy fleets as they entered the faster-than-light voyage, and two ships sank.
Two other ships that had time to leave were trapped in the Frontier and joined in the defense of the Frontier, allowing the Frontier to last stand off the menacing enemy.
On the enemy fleet's side, from the initial complacency to the gradual discovery that the San Carran Frontier was completely a thorny turtle shell, after the two ships were bombarded by land-based weapons on the ground, the enemy fleet, feared by the artillery fire on the ground, had to adopt a new tactic of harassment and blockade.
Just reading such a war report, Su Mu estimated that they would lose about 5 billion, although 2 billion belonged to other pioneers, but he paid 15 billion for this war, and did not earn 20 billion from the enemy, how could this business be a loss.
At this time, they entered the star system where San Calan was located, and kept moving quickly towards the frontier at sub-light speed, and suddenly they received a warning from the prospect and the fleet that they had discovered the spacecraft, and the target was their direction, and Su Mu knew that the enemy fleet was coming, and a formal firefight was coming.
In the spaceship, Su Mu, as the commander or simply the payer, gathered everyone together to communicate, "According to the detection, it is confirmed that the enemy fleet is approaching us, please be prepared to meet it." ”
"They're just in time!" Nablus is quite a war maniac, not afraid of things at all, he has been waiting for these enemies to appear for a long time, think about the situation of their Knights of Mercy in the isolated island, how can it be similar to St. Calan, most of the time with few enemies, when have they been afraid!
"Let me analyze that the reason why our enemy is so anxious to fight with us is undoubtedly from the perspective of numerical comparison, the enemy has an advantage, and relying on harassment tactics, many times even in the face of large spaceships are fearless; Second, they are fighting through the Far Star Gate, no matter how well the logistics are controlled, they can support at most half a year when they can't plunder supplies, and they must create enough damage during this time to achieve their strategic goals. ”
"However, if we look at it from our point of view, the number of our ships is small, but the combat effectiveness is not low, only carrying a small amount of cargo and doing a little business... Giving up most of the space to the crew, armament, and onboard weapons ensures that we are not afraid to face a siege from multiple ships. ”
"Before the fight, our enemies don't know this, I suggest that you can first disguise yourself as a trade ship, secretly prepare for battle, and wait until the opponent is close enough to attack and give them a fatal blow!" Nablus interjected and said what Su Mu wanted to say.
"I support Captain Nablus's suggestion, but our three small ships have obvious traces of modification, I wonder if Sir Silva can make some sacrifices? Expose yourself as much as possible? Su Mu asked after him.
Among the 4 ships that came over, the Donglugu Company and the Knights of Mercy were all miniature wanderers, and only the wealthy Silva used a larger 100-meter-long farmer type, which was four or five times larger than them in size.
Silva hesitated, the value of such a spaceship is more than 6 billion, if it is damaged, he has to make a special trip to the lighthouse star for maintenance, and the maintenance cost is estimated to be not enough for the commission, he regrets it a little, how did he take this commission in the first place? Do you want to explore the Eastern Route along the way?
"Sir Silva, if the ship suffers any damage this time, I will bear all the repair costs." Su Mu suggested in a seductive voice.
Silva was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly agreed.
Below, Kaminia also chose to agree, this time the operation is not particularly dangerous, the spacecraft is all in a sub-light speed state, and it is too easy to escape.
The discussion is over for the time being, and they have to formulate the tactics of the time according to this plan, because they are not a whole army, and the ships are different, and the weapons and equipment are different, it is impossible to force them together, and they must see the cooperation of the time.
Of course their enemies are the same.
At sub-light speeds, the spacecraft skimmed a distance of one astronomical unit every 10 minutes, getting closer and closer, and finally met in the asteroid belt of the star system.
Su Mu did not move, Nana gave an order, pressed the impulse in her heart, and just asked the crew to check all the bow, stern, side, roof, and belly of the ship, and enter a state of waiting for an opportunity.
The three small ships that had completed the mission together regrouped and formed the formation of Sir Silva's spaceship in the center.
In this way, it is estimated that at first glance, I will definitely think that this is a trading fleet with a certain amount of armed force, and the enemy's first target is undoubtedly the central "trade" spaceship, paralyzing it, so that there is income, thinking of bombarding those small ships specializing in combat, then there is only out, and there is no income.
Who would fight such a war!
