UN has UN considerations, and Confederacy has Confederacy considerations.
The Lanzhou aircraft carrier battle group has enough time and ability to easily get out of the siege, and in the absence of a large gravity well generator, the UNSF ships with hyperspace engines that surpass the Confederacy's technological level of at least 100 years can easily enter a state of transition and fly away in a second.
But in the current chaotic situation in the universe, humanity, or the UN, needs a great victory to inspire the people, but more importantly, it needs a chance to drain the blood of the Confederacy.
A powerful confederation is not what the UN or humanity wants to see, compared to the huge size of the confederacy, the human race, which only sits on the territory near the galaxy and has a population of only tens of billions, is just a drop in the ocean, if it were not for the extremely powerful technology of the human race, the human race would be just an inconspicuous race.
It's just that even if human beings have the technological strength that surpasses the entire universe, the too scarce population makes it impossible for human beings to digest a larger territory, even if it is just a galaxy and the Great Magellanic Nebula, the number of human beings now cannot be completely digested.
Basically, human control over these areas is based solely on the forced removal of a "non-crossable line" by armed force.
It can be said that human beings have the ability to easily expand their territory by a hundredfold or a thousand times, but they cannot digest it.
And what about the Confederacy? It has at least two-thirds of the space and population of the known universe, although its interior is very loose.
So that's why humans always go on great expeditions.
For the human fleet, basically the Confederate armed forces dodge as soon as they can. After all, whether it is a human battleship that will jump over and stick to its face anytime and anywhere after invading the human universe before the cyber war. Or the jump missiles that will fly over anytime and anywhere after the cyber war, all of which have left a very deep impression on the alien race.
Although this has made it less and less alien warships that have entered the human space in the last hundred years. However, it also makes it very difficult for humans to catch the mobile power of alien races in the process of the Great Expedition.
There is no doubt about it. Although these broken ships are quite okay in the eyes of humans, they can't be left alone, no matter what, they are starships.
Therefore, the Lanzhou aircraft carrier battle group was used as a decoy this time, and under the information control of the spy organs, the Lanzhou aircraft carrier battle group became a force that advanced so rapidly that it can be said to be a rash advance.
For now, the Confederacy is biting the bait.
Next, according to the plan, the fleet composed of more than a dozen supercarrier battle groups will directly destroy the Confederacy fleet that bites the hook.
But from the very beginning of the war to the present performance of the Confederacy. The UN clearly underestimated the current strength and technological level of the Confederacy, and an aircraft carrier battle group of this number of ships was not enough to support more than an hour at present. Although the Lanzhou aircraft carrier battle group is still releasing carrier-based aircraft, the multiple injuries on the hull have slowed down the speed at which the entire ship releases carrier-based aircraft.
Both fighter jets and attack planes that are ejected from the Lanzhou will be put into attack or intercept the enemy at the first time, but the endless number of Zerg units has saturated the fleet's interception system, so a considerable number of carrier-based aircraft will also be set on fire by units several times their own size at the next moment when they are ejected from the Lanzhou.
On the periphery, the kilometer-long starcruiser began to approach the Lanzhou under the orders of the fleet commander, and the countless tongues of fire and lasers that could not be seen by the human eye could no longer organize the same dense line of fire as before with other ships. A large number of flying insects are like planes swooping down in all directions, just like surface ships in ancient World War II.
Melee laser arrays and other close-range weapons were constantly strafing in all directions, and countless Zerg units were vaporized or shot down directly under the attack, but there were many more Zerg units behind.
And in these desperate Zerg units, there are also heavy torpedoes from the Confederacy Fourth Strike Wave carrier-based aircraft.
No small supply depot began to be attacked. Nanobeam transmissions to the outer starcruisers began intermittently. The self-repair of the starcruiser's armor after being pierced by stray bullets gradually became slower, and it took five seconds or more to repair the armor holes that would have been repaired in a second.
"How much longer can we hold out?" The captain of the Lanzhou sat in the captain's chair, his eyes kept staring at the light screen that was swiping out at a very fast speed, and issued orders from time to time.
But the question still popped up in his mind, and more importantly, "Support." When is it coming."
The gravity well is a stupid way to prevent jumping, and it is undoubtedly very clumsy, and it is quite expensive and inconvenient compared to the Confederacy. But it's a very effective approach.
If it is normal, the Lanzhou aircraft carrier battle group can directly use jump missiles or cruiser guns to launch jump warheads to directly kill the gravity well launchers anchored in subspace, or at worst, it can also let a carrier-based aircraft enter subspace and directly hit this thing. But now they don't have any rich shells or planes to do that.
And there are a lot of gravity well launchers anchored in space. And God knows if there are other ships with large movable gravity silo launchers.
And if you don't blow it up, then there's no doubt about it. Even if the Lanzhou aircraft carrier battle group ignores the people in the ship, it will definitely not be able to rush out at the highest speed and acceleration towards the edge of the gravity well.
"The number of ammunition remaining in the first cruiser formation is eight percent, and the number of ammunition remaining in the second cruiser formation is five percent."
"The seventh, eighth, and thirteenth attack waves are all wiped out, and the fourteenth attack wave has just lost contact."
"The power system of the frigate Nexson and Pitez was damaged, and the Lanzhou towing beam was requested."
One bad news after another appeared in front of the commanders and staff officers of the Lanzhou aircraft carrier battle group, and more and more warships and units lost their combat capability, and casualties began to appear. And the support has not yet appeared.
"Confederate landing ship detected!"
As soon as the warning voice fell, the screen marked that in the lower hemisphere direction of the Lanzhou aircraft carrier, a large number of raid landing ships designed and manufactured by the Confederate General Research Institute were rapidly approaching the Lanzhou.
"All of them! Anti-Jump Gang Fight Ready! The great powers attack the landing ship as the first attack target, recall all fighters to surround the mothership! ”
The next second after this order was given, the only remaining jump missiles began to carry out precise strikes against these landing ships, but the deterrence of jump missiles was lost, and batches of Zerg units squeezed close to the line of fire at the cost of corpses.
The next moment after one Zerg unit landed on the Lanzhou aircraft carrier battle group, more Zerg units fell from afar onto the main armor belt of the Lanzhou aircraft carrier battle group. (To be continued.) )
