With a large number of unmanned reconnaissance ships reconnoitring the 10-light-year radius around the interstellar planet Yi, the Neo-Roman Imperial Army finally discovered the Bundeswehr fleet. (Read the full text novel, as far as possible in ωар.1(6)(1(6)κxS.СOM.文.學網)

Without hesitation, Bergdorf commanded the fleet to rush straight in three directions.

The disturbance of gravitational 'waves' from a large number of massive battleships presents an amazing scene on the gravitational 'wave' detection system of Bundeswehr warships.

In the space of 1,000 astronomical units in the direction of the Perseus spiral arm of the planet "Yi", the three fleets of the imperial army "Genghis Khan", "Napoleon" and "Haraldi" appeared from three directions almost simultaneously. The warships that changed to the speed of light quickly completed a series of actions to move closer to each other and arrange battle formations.

In order to prevent the opponent from seizing the opportunity to defeat each other, the Imperial army did not put on a true three-sided siege posture. Bergdorf changed his mind before the attack, turning Gus's proposed siege into a split-and-attack strategy. They all arranged a conical formation, with the most powerful "Genghis Khan" fleet as the main direction of attack, and attacked the Wehrmacht fleet. The other two fleets emerged from its flanks and advanced from the two diagonal fronts of their opponents. In this way, all three fleets are actually in the front hemisphere of the Bundeswehr, attacking at different angles, and their expected meeting point will be about 100,000 kilometres in front of the Bundeswehr fleet.

The five-star general of the Immortal Interstellar Bundeswehr saw the ferocity of the Imperial Army, and when the two sides were still nearly a million kilometers away, he urgently ordered them to disperse and retreat. The huge Bundeswehr fleet soon scattered and fled, entering a faster-than-light state. Leave the ethereal particles from the combustion of ion thrusters and hydrogen-oxygen rockets to each other.

"Don't even have the courage to shoot a shot?"

Bergdorf was surprised that his old rival Bloomberg did not dare to fire a single shot and fled at full speed. What he didn't expect was that after that, whenever the Imperial fleet changed to faster-than-light, Bloomberg and the Bundeswehr immediately dispersed into faster-than-light and fled.

"I really didn't expect that Bloombock to fall to such a point?"

Eager to fight but unable to catch his opponent, Bergdorf cursed his opponent angrily and hatefully.

"Your Excellency Marshal, I suggest that we divide into small teams to carry out non-stop attacks." Gus suggested again.

"We must lure them into a decisive battle, and if we continue like this, it will only become more and more unfavorable to us." Bergdorf looked agitated.

If Gus's original advice had been adopted, the situation would have changed a long time ago.

"If we can reduce the distance to the enemy when we change to the speed of light to hundreds of thousands of kilometers, the enemy will not have enough time to flee and will be forced to fight." Zeng Tai said.

But this approach was suitable only for cruisers with a smaller mass. Battleships, especially the "Commander" class, which is larger in size and mass, have a very large radius of tidal force caused by the space "waves" caused by the Akuberi engine, often tens of thousands of kilometers long. As many as 2,000 battleships have to change their speed of light at a distance of hundreds of thousands of kilometers from the enemy, and the space is too narrow, which will inevitably produce spatial 'waves' and disorder, which will then cause 'tide' and tidal forces to 'mix' and 'chaos,' leading to serious collision accidents. A feasible solution would be to put so many battleships in batches, but then the superiority in forces would be lost, and it would be equally easy for the opponent to destroy them in batches.

So Bergdorf quickly shook his head at Zengtai's proposal and said, "That's even more unrealistic." ”

Admiral Zeng Tai, who was vetoed, turned to Gus and said, "What kind of 'space storm' tactic, can't we use it now?" ”

Gus also shook his head and analyzed: "The enemy's ship distance has always been maintained at a distance of more than 5,000 kilometers. Unless we can lure them into forming a dense formation. Otherwise, we will launch a 'space storm', and the effect will be very poor." What's more, our fleet can only change the speed of light from millions of kilometers away from the enemy, even if we use the cruiser fleet to successfully launch a space storm and blow away some of their ships, the rest are likely to flee quickly before the battlefleet rushes close to the effective combat distance. ”

"Your Excellency, I still advise us to harass the enemy. With a small batch of ships, change the speed of light directly at the effective combat distance, and immediately withdraw from the battle after launching one or two rounds of attacks. ”

Gus insisted. In fact, his suggestion was the so-called "faster-than-light raid" tactic that Jiang Ziyue had used in a series of battles in the past. It's just that he didn't feel the need to explain the origin to Bergdorf at this time, because the marshal didn't like the people who were openly promoted by Wang Zeren too much. Now, he sees the value of this tactic. He continued:

"If the enemy insists on avoiding a head-on confrontation with our troops, we use this tactic to gradually weaken them. If they can't bear it, they will most likely start a decisive battle with our army. In any case, we have to make them feel the pressure and understand that they can't avoid it. ”

Bergdorf hesitated for a while, and he couldn't think of any other effective countermeasures, so he had to say: "This is not a bad way." ”

"Then ask the 'Haraldi' fleet 'handed over' to me to carry it out." Gus pleaded.

"Good. General Zeng and I are ready to launch an all-out strike as soon as the opportunity is ripe. ”

On June 22nd, it was one year since the first major battle between the New Roman Imperial Army and the Immortal Interstellar Bundeswehr in the Yi star field. On this special day, the Imperial fleet went on the offensive again.

This time, a total of ten Imperial battleships, led by several cruisers, simultaneously changed the speed of light at a distance of 300,000 kilometers on the flank of the Bundeswehr fleet and launched a direct artillery attack. The Federation warship in front of it was immediately hit hard. But just as the other Federation warships turned their guns and prepared to counterattack, the Imperial warships that launched the attack had already accelerated to one-half of the speed of light, swept past the Federation warship group, and flew into deep space.

Before the Wehrmacht could 'figure out' the intentions of the Imperial Army, more than a dozen battleships and cruisers came out of the void and launched a surprise attack. Although the losses caused by each attack of the Imperial Army were not large, this mosquito bite tactic made the Federation Army feel quite irritated. In particular, many middle- and low-level officers and soldiers have repeatedly retreated and fled in the past few days, making them hold their breath. This kind of harassment tactics of the Imperial Army only aggravated their emotions and catalyzed their desire to fight.

General Bloomberg, however, was very calm, and he tried his best to suppress his men's impatience and ordered a loose spherical formation to be formed to deal with the attack of the Imperial army.

Robb was also unhappy with the current rather frustrated strategy, and the retreat made him eager to have a great battle with his opponent. So he drew up a plan and sent it to Gunther? Lieutenant Colonel Oswald and Edward? Colonel Mandalay, hoping that they would join him in lobbying General Bloomberg to adopt and compete with their opponents.

"It's a bit risky." Oswald commented on Robb's plan, "If the enemy does not attack in a dense formation, the effect will be greatly reduced, and it will be a 'melee' battle." ”

"It looks a bit fanciful, and the old generals probably won't accept it." Mandalay raised other concerns.

"We're going to succeed this time." Robb confidently said, "I have been reflecting on the enemy and the 'space storm' tactics we have used since I was in the prisoner of war camp in Neo-Byzantium. When I returned to China, I consulted all the relevant reports and did a lot of simulation exercises. This plan was formed after careful consideration. ”

"Edward is right, no matter how perfect your plan is, it will seem marginal in the eyes of the old generals."

"That's why I ask you two to come together to convince them. General Bloomberg, in particular, I am afraid that bringing it up alone will cause him to be dissatisfied. Robb said.

"He's been covering you all the time." Mandalay reminded.

"In short, if you all think that this plan is completely feasible, then let's 'hand' it over to the five-star general together."

Mandalay and Oswald glanced at each other in the communication system, then nodded in agreement.

After reading the plan that the three of them had 'handed in'. Bloomberg said, "Isn't that too whimsical? ”

"Five-star general, this is by no means whimsical. The enemy would not have expected this move. Robb replied.

"Did you come up with this together?"

"The report, the plan was drawn up by Lieutenant Colonel Luo, but Lieutenant Colonel Oswald and I agreed." Mandalay replied.

Bloomberg looked around at the stereoscopic images of the three of them, and seriously pondered the viable 'sexuality' of the plan.

All three of them were defeated generals, and at this time they came up with this innovative tactic. But every innovation is risky, especially in today's climate. If the forces do not have an advantage, new tactics are adopted, there is no precedent and experience to follow, and the slightest mistake or poor consideration is very likely to lead the whole army into a situation from which it will never recover.

And in terms of actual 'operation', Robb's planning requirements are quite high. If it is put into action, he, the commander-in-chief of the fleet, must ensure that every step is completed 'precisely' according to the plan, otherwise it is easy to lose the progress and even turn into a catastrophe.

"Five-star general, the space storm tactical part is 'handed over' to me, and I will definitely be able to do it without any mistakes." Robb said firmly, "If it goes well, we will definitely be able to annihilate the Imperial Army." ”

"Lieutenant Colonel Luo, the key and risk of this plan lies in the space storm tactics. If we fail to achieve our goal, we will most likely not be able to retreat with all our bodies and will be forced to engage in a decisive battle with the enemy. And what we have been trying these days to do is precisely to avoid a premature decisive battle with the enemy. ”

After Bloomberg finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Chief of Staff Lepnin. The other party gave him an affirmative nod in agreement, indicating that he agreed with Robb's plan.

"Sir, I can't guarantee anything, but I'm fully confident that I'll be able to meet the requirements of the plan with precision in implementing the Space Storm tactics." Robb said.

Bloomberg looked at Mandalay and Oswald and asked, "What do you think of both?" ”

"We support Lieutenant Colonel Luo's plan. Sir, since we have the opportunity to annihilate the enemy, we have no reason to 'waste' it. Mandalay said.

"Okay then." Bloomberg finally agreed, "Go down and prepare, General Lepnin, and draw up a new plan for the attack." ”
