973 Take the initiative
A large number of Atlantean warships immediately stopped in place, no longer chasing the human warships, and later began to assemble in the direction of the flagship of Nates.
The human fleet, which had been harvesting every day, suddenly had no income for a whole day, and Deng realized that the situation had changed. Soon the intelligence department sent an update on the situation, indicating the movement of enemy troops.
The Atlanteans retreated, frustrating the military's desire to concentrate all its forces on the enemy to deliver a heavy blow, so that there was no longer a need for half-baked Islamic coalition troops to fight, although the losses of the fleet in recent times were not small, but from a strategic point of view, the Chinese not only did not lose, but gained.
Ye Fei couldn't reach that high level, he only thought about how to kill the enemy more, and applied to the base star several times in a row, Xu Shijie finally agreed that he would take the advancing fleet to chase down the enemy army!
The forward fleet is probably the only fleet that can destroy a large number of enemy ships in a short period of time, and the super combat effectiveness of crystal missiles has forced the military top brass to reconsider whether it should be equipped with crystal missiles on a large scale.
As long as you can defeat the Atlanteans, what's the big deal about wasting a few teleportation crystals? Scrooge kept the crystals and lost the war, so it is better to use up the crystals and win.
However, this mention is still in the midst of controversy, and Xu Shijie has even moved the idea of sending a fleet to the vicinity of a known neutron star to find super-heavy element crystals.
With a teleporter, no matter where the mining area of the super-heavy element is located, it is no different from being next door to the base star.
Ye Fei's Provenance has become the new flagship of the advancing fleet, and he leads the fleet to attack alone. Make a beeline for the current assembly point of the Atlantean fleet.
In the nearly two months of fighting, the four main fleets left a large number of early warning satellites within a range of 50 light years, and although it was not possible to monitor all areas in real time, it was not difficult to roughly judge the direction of the enemy's assembly.
Twenty-seven hours later, the forward fleet arrived near the Atlantean fleet assembly point.
At this moment, there are still a large number of Atlantean warships approaching the assembly point, and the enemy ships that have arrived at the assembly battle are about a little more than a thousand, Ye Fei very much hopes to find them before more enemy ships arrive, and wipe out these more than 1,000 warships, giving the Atlanteans a little color.
However, the intelligence of the Second General Staff Department only knew that the enemy's assembly point was nearby, but did not know the specific coordinates. Exactly where the enemy forces are still need to be found by the advancing fleets themselves.
Ye Fei was not stupid enough to scatter the fleet. Running around like a headless fly, he ordered the fleet to release a large number of early warning satellites in the nearby airspace about five light-years to closely monitor the fluctuations in faster-than-light space in this area!
In just a few hours, the provenance number received a large amount of information. The flight directions of a dozen enemy ships were sketched on the star map.
The flight trajectory extensions of these dozen enemy ships do not converge at a single point. There is even a considerable distance between them. But each extension leads to an area on the Guò chart that is within a light-year.
Ye Fei was ninety percent sure that the enemy's assembly point was within the range of this light year!
Sixty reconnaissance ships on the thirty Ares-class battleships immediately set off in unison. Start a comprehensive search within this light-year range.
Ye Fei, who couldn't stay still, simply threw the fleet to Luo Wei. Joined the search with a provenance number that also had the ability to camouflage.
The range of one light year is really not very large, any battleship equipped with a crystal engine can fly through it in an hour, but it is not easy to find a thousand warships within a three-dimensional light year.
Searching little by little is an impossible task at all, Ye Fei still uses the old method to observe spatial fluctuations after evenly scattering all reconnaissance ships in all directions, so as to achieve the purpose of tracking enemy ships.
Every time he thought that the power system of the Atlanteans could not be tracked, Ye Fei hoped that the speed of the magnetic engine could exceed two light-years per day, and even if he cried and shouted at that time, he would give the magnetic engine to the Atlanteans for free!
According to the prior assignment, the provenance flew to the center of the target area, and the other reconnaissance ships immediately used the optical system to carefully search the nearby starry sky after taking position, and about half an hour later, the first image of spatial fluctuations was determined, and another route was added to the star map of the provenance.
However, nothing was found in the next few hours, and Ye Fei had to order the reconnaissance ship to conduct a small-scale mobile reconnaissance, and the distance of each voyage was kept about one broad day.
The enemy army has been assembling here for a long time, and the light emitted from the battleship must have flown a distance of a light sky, and each time it moves, it is just right to use the optical system to detect the enemy!
Just as Ye Fei was trying his best to find the location of the enemy army, Ruan Peng suddenly reported: "Boss, I lost the signal of a reconnaissance ship!" ”
"What? Immediately order the nearby reconnaissance ships to move closer to the lost coordinates! Ye Fei was surprised and delighted, surprised that this reconnaissance ship was likely to have been killed, and happy that this reconnaissance ship was likely to hit a large force of the enemy!
It only takes a few seconds for a reconnaissance ship flying at full speed to fly over a distance of several light days, and in just a few seconds, the three reconnaissance ships that rushed to the vicinity of the coordinates of the incident sent back a signal at the same time that they had discovered a large force of the enemy, and the lost reconnaissance ship had been confirmed to have been sunk by the enemy, and the enemy troops were speeding up their evacuation!
That exposed reconnaissance ship not only ruined itself, but also alarmed the enemy!
It will take several hours for the main forces of the fleet to arrive, and it will not take the enemy so much time to get into faster-than-light state.
Time was too late, Ye Fei sent the enemy's location information to Luo Wei, and gave the order to the main force to intercept it with all its might, while directing the Seed Source to chase the enemy!
After all, the Seed Source is the new flagship of the forward fleet, before departure, each ship redistributed all the crystal missiles, and the Seed Source was also assigned a share, although the number is not much, but it is better to be able to get the next one is one than to let them all run away!
The Seed Source flew at full speed, hurrying and hurrying, and finally bit the tail of the Atlantis fleet before the enemy was about to enter the speed of light, and ten crystal missiles were launched without hesitation, destroying nine enemy ships in an instant.
Then a few cracks opened under the belly of the Seed Source ship, and the powerful wrists and feet let go of the entangled light-speed torpedoes, sixteen light-speed torpedoes closely followed the target's buttocks, five of which hit the target before the enemy ship entered the super-light speed, and the remaining eleven light-speed torpedoes failed to catch the enemy ship before entering the super-light speed, and after a while, some broken fragments suddenly scattered in the void, and I don't know how many of the eleven light-speed torpedoes finally hit.
