Chapter 16: Before the Decisive Battle

The news of the total defeat of the Omir fleet at the "Gathering Point of Daedalus" soon reached the Federation, and anger and fear enveloped all the high-ranking personnel of the Federation, who could not imagine that one of the most powerful main fleets was gone. How terrifying is the strength of the rebel "Son of Keha"? When they think of this, these people will involuntarily shudder.

When the government learned of this news, the first thing it did was to try its best to cover up the news, not to let it spread, and not to let the news of the defeat of the Omir fleet spread to all planets. Despite the federal government's best efforts, there is still no news of a successful blockade, and the "Son of Keha" is absolutely indispensable. As soon as this news was sent, the people in the core of the Federation fell into a panic, and the shadow of war hung over everyone's heads, lingering, especially the government, under great pressure, this pressure came from the people's questioning and the shadow of the "Son of Keha".

……

Keha Starport, General Command.

Shortly after Renault left, Kelly Gen arrived, and she knew the news of Frank's return as soon as she could, "Interesting, deputy!" Came back so soon! But it's time to come back. ”

Frank stared straight at the defensive layout on the main console, and at the same time began to check for possible defensive holes, although he didn't look back, but Kellygan already knew it as soon as he stepped into the headquarters, "If you have nothing to do, go to the Three Treasures Palace, just say anything!" ”

Kelligan didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point, "The commander (Mengsk) has just given me the latest directive, and he has decided that the 'Son of Keha' will officially launch a general showdown against the Federation. ”

Frank wasn't surprised, it was just expected, "So, what do you need us to do?" ”

Kelly Gen: "Dump the nest." ”

Frank still didn't look back, he continued the work at hand, and said, "To be specific? ”

She pursed her lips lightly and said: "Mobilize all the transferable liliang on the Keha Star, and at the same time we are going to build a huge front-line temporary supply fleet, and the escort task of the fleet will be handed over to you and the Renault Rangers, be sure to ensure that our main fleet can get logistics supplies in time, and the time to launch a decisive battle against the Federation is after the replenishment is completed." ”

Frank: "How much time did Monsk give us?" ”

"Seventy-two hours!" Kelly replied crisply.

"Three days, it should be no problem! Leave it to me. Frank nodded.

After finishing the matter, Kelligan was about to ask him what he had gained by going to Tasanis, in fact, she was also curious about who the woman named "Nova" was, but she finally gave up, apparently, with her keen judgment, she found that his trip to Tasanis did not go as smoothly as she imagined, so she did not touch the mold, and told Frank about the matter and left the command.

Frank didn't care about Kellygan's departure, he contacted Renault as soon as possible, and informed him of the incident, "Jim ......"

Renault: "Roger! ”

"Hu ......" ended communication with Renault, Frank stood next to the main console and let out a long breath, the moment of the decisive battle has finally arrived, for him, there is no excitement or much feeling, "My existence is slowly affecting this shijie, what will happen in this battle?" Or won't? Frank muttered to himself.

Normally, before launching a major battle, Mengsk would hold a pre-war battle meeting, but this time, as the largest battle in the history of the "Son of Keha", it was also a battle that affected the pattern of humanity. Surprisingly, Mengsk did not do as usual, this time he gave operational orders directly to the internal combat personnel.

The reason for this is probably only known to Frank.

The destruction of the Federation of Omir fleets directly reduced their strength by at least three layers, and the heavy damage to the current Federation is no longer enough to describe, with the defeat of the Omir fleet, the hard power balance between the two sides has been in a state of parity, although the Federation has lost the Omir fleet, but now the unscathed Delta fleet and the main forces of the other core Shijie will be together, in this state of equal combat power between the two sides, it is still unknown who wins and who loses between the two sides.

On the surface, even if the Federation loses a main fleet, it still has an advantage, because one is offensive and the other is defensive, and the Federation as the defensive side, they have a natural home advantage, which is not possessed by the "Son of Keha", so even if Keha comes, the Federation still has the confidence to be able to defend. Even, as long as they are given enough time, they may organize a counteroffensive, and the current Federation has no bugs to contain their combat power, which is quite terrifying for Keha, but a series of recent mistakes have been comparable to the son of Keha.

On the surface, it seems that the two sides have a comparison between the two sides, and despite a series of victories, the "Son of Keha" still does not have enough advantages, and this is only the appearance of strength.

For Mengsk, never judge this person by appearance, it seems that Mengsk is at a disadvantage, in fact he is not only not at a disadvantage, but has a huge advantage, and it is multifaceted. The first is Edmund Duke, the Federation's defense system looks unbreakable, in fact, it is so, but Duke knows the Federation's defense system well, this is one of the biggest trump cards in Mengsk, and then, the "Son of Keha" can be said to have mastered more than seven layers of planets shijie, although they are all marginal planets, but these edge shijie has played a great role in promoting the "son of Keha", and the edge shijie has restored the economy with order, The economic base determines the superstructure, and over time it will only become more and more beneficial to the "sons of Keha", while the Federation, on the other hand, their economy is not as good as it is under the suppression of Keha. And one of Mengsk's biggest trump cards is also the craziest trump card - the Spectral Launcher. This secret weapon alone can play a role in turning the tide.

The three days passed quickly, and Keha had already activated all the war machines three days ago, and the supply ships were full of silicon ore and high-energy gas, and Liliang who remained on Keha would also be mobilized.

On this day, the Keha Starport was no longer open to the public, all the commanders and fighters were urgently mobilized, and the Rangers were in the best combat readiness under the integration of Renault.

At the berthing of the starport, one by one the giants slowly resorted to the starport, frigates, cruisers, assault ships, etc., at most of which were supply ships, and the full load of these ships had even reached a terrifying 3 million tons, while the normal tonnage of battlecruisers was only 1.5 million tons, at most two million tons.

A full sixteen supply ships were loaded front and rear and sailed to the designated rendezvous point, and the Liliang escorting the supply ships reached the capital ship level of a squadron, plus the Ranger Liliang had a total of eight capital ships, and the rest of the frigates and assault ships ranged.

Artificial Adjutant: "All ships are ready for the jump, Commander!" ”
