Chapter 1272: Capture the Operation
On the day of the operation, about 100,000 ships of all kinds were assembled, closely arranged according to the way of pre-drills, and the closer they got to each other, almost all of them were attached to each other. Countless small aircraft traveled through the middle of the fleet, reporting everyone's situation to the battlefield computer so that they could adjust in time. They then connected the ships in their positions with energy cables.
Once all the ships were connected by energy chains, the order to set off was given. The Energy Chain Device provided by the Ring Alliance can unify the energy characteristics of the ships and turn them into a single unit, so that the entire fleet can be transferred with only one opening of the Elemental Passage. The Alliance promises that in the future, the technology can be conditionally made available to ferrymen, with priority given to worlds that send armies to fight. Who doesn't want this new logistics technology capable of transforming the entire multiverse?
On the one hand, it is the general righteousness of eliminating Nakus, and on the other hand, it is the visible economic benefits, and the two-pronged approach allows the Ring Alliance to unify such a fleet in a short period of time. It can also allow them to remain calm in the face of the largest spatial crack in history, and drive in without hesitation.
Due to the sheer number of spaceships, the usual three-minute journey would be delayed to half an hour. This half hour is the most dangerous, because the fleet is isolated from the outside world, and no information can be received or sent. Although several advance stealth reconnaissance ships have been sent to provide intelligence on the arrival of the fleet in the target world, they are no longer acceptable. They were scattered in several different locations away from each other, and they didn't know which one the fleet would go to. The entire flight control of the crossing was in the hands of the flagship "Soyuz", and Tivan personally handled it.
Half an hour is not short, but not long. When everyone rushed out of the passage, they breathed a long sigh of relief. The field of vision is clean and there are no enemy signals. They went to great lengths to disguise themselves as a single ferryman's crossing signal without arousing any suspicion, and now it seems to have worked.
As long as you use the help of the will of the world, you can easily detect the generation of crossing, and this has to be guarded against. If tens of thousands of crossing signals appear at once, then who doesn't know that there is a military operation taking place? One or two signals alone are likely to be just travelers, and the Templar of Nagkus will not risk being exposed in order to continue to hide itself by sending scouts for a single signal.
"The first step is successful, untie the energy chains, and act according to the plan!" Tivan gave the order at the same time, the order was already being executed. The entire fleet was dispersed and acted in an orderly manner. Ships vary in size, power and maneuverability. However, in the face of powerful computing power, all personalities can become a part of the whole and be used in the most rational way. The whole fleet is like a jade feather tube (chrysanthemum) that suddenly blooms, and thousands of threads fly out.
At the same time, the energy shielding field has also been activated, maximizing the shielding of the entire fleet. Because multiple sheltering fields will interfere with each other, the whole fleet can only use one, which requires dispersion and close proximity to maximize the use of space. Tivan watched the formation change while paying attention to the news of the reconnaissance ahead. Everything is going well, and so far the enemy has not been alarmed.
"The third step begins!" Thivan gave the order decisively, and sent out the information on the location of the battlefield and the position of each ship. After a ten-second countdown, the entire fleet descended like a tiger, and turned on the teleportation devices one after another. Whether it's folding space or faster-than-light, all variables that vary in velocity are calculated in advance.
The base of the Templar of Nakhus sits in a nebula filled with radiation, a remnant of the explosion of a tripulsar system, still radiating energy and being considered uninhabitable. The protective technology used by the Templar of Nakhus had apparently overcome this difficulty, but it was still fraught with danger for the Alliance's ships.
Such a massive teleportation would surely be detected by the enemy, and by the time they responded, the attack had already begun. According to the intelligence of the reconnaissance in advance, the weapons on the surface and the hidden weapons that have been found were all destroyed in the first wave of strikes. Before the opponent could raise a combat-level shield to block the attack, the assault team had already parachuted.
"Battlefield suppression, absolutely no one, nothing to leave here!" Tivan roared in the communication channel. However, his roar was only to boost morale, and all the actions were planned in advance, and from the perspective of battlefield execution, these things did not have to be repeated at all.
The Sanctuary of Nagkos was taken by surprise, more than half of its defenses were destroyed at the beginning of the battle, and what remained was not enough to withstand the fleet outside. But the Templars are never afraid of death, and their will to defend the Dark Web Generator is also very strong, and they immediately began to resist desperately. A temporary defeat outside the base doesn't mean that the inside of the base will fall, and the Resistant Transformers with black oil all over their bodies frantically pounce on the assault team and start a counterattack with all their weapons.
"Hyperspace teleportation detected, arriving on the battlefield thirty seconds later. The alarm came from the battlefield situation computer, Tiwan tilted his head and glanced at it, and then gave an order: "The number of enemy ships is unknown, and each ship has entered a state of regional prevention and control." The interceptor ships are ready to carry out jamming and saturation strikes on the positions that the enemy ships are about to arrive, and the fleet of the E3D8 sector is responsible for the implementation, and the E3D9 is responsible for coordination. ”
In a battle in space, it is possible to be attacked by the enemy in all directions, so the way to achieve a "terrain" advantage is to limit the enemy's mobility by firepower or technical means. Hyperspace radar can detect transmitted energy fluctuations in advance, including approximate location, but is not accurate. On a cosmic scale, the slightest miss can be a thousand miles away.
A variety of energy ray cannons capable of attacking at the speed of light are still the main weapons of the fleet. Although the others are in the series, the usage rate is very low. On the surface of a "small" planet, an atomic weapon can play a great role in deterrence and destruction, but in the universe it is extremely ineffective. It's powerful, but the vacuum environment will reduce the decay rate of the energy it emitts, and the parts that don't hit the enemy ship will still affect the launcher, which is more than worth the cost. This is only used if the enemy's protective system is suppressed, allowing the teleportation system to drop atomic weapons directly inside the opposing ship.
Another commonly used type of weapon is psionics, which use the will to project a variety of supernatural effects, called magic, specter, or ability. This technology is no less powerful than "technology", but it is very difficult to mass produce – or industrialize. So far, only Zhao Mai's Z insect alien is the most successful example, a large group of guys who cast the psychic ability lightning can forcibly tear open the energy shield of any technology with their will. The two compete with the strength of will, and the ferocity of the Z bug alien beats the mechanical dementia of electronic components.
"If the Z-bugs were here, the shields of all enemy ships would not be breached, but they would be able to rush in and land directly inside. Tivan thought about it, but shook his head. If the Z bug is called so early, then what is the purpose of such a painstaking training of the Ring Alliance? Although the five hundred years of war are at a disadvantage, the Ring Alliance has never been vulnerable.
Before the enemy warship appeared, the weapon was already fired, and it swooped down on the position where the enemy ship might appear. Even light-speed weapons need to take into account the delay caused by flight time on a cosmic scale, and the wider the battlefield, the more difficult it is to control. In particular, the scale of the spacecraft itself is almost negligible compared to the engagement distance, and coupled with the mutual maneuvering in multiple directions, this creates a situation where it is difficult to aim and hit. The launch of the Ring Alliance did not expect to achieve much success, but only to suppress it and cover for the high-speed interceptor spacecraft to shoot at close range.
Brilliant light blooms in the dark background, most of them disappear into the infinite distance, while the other part fulfills its mission. The Templar fleet that had just jumped out was slapped in the face before they could see the battlefield situation clearly. Colorful explosions and scattered debris became the soundtrack to the ship's appearances, and they immediately maneuvered and responded in response.
Lightspeed weapons come and go, forming alternately flickering bands of light. Energy shields from different technologies reflect different colors of light when attacked, like fireworks in space. The farther the distance, the less efficient and effective the attack will be, and both sides must grasp the rhythm of energy distribution in the process of closing the distance in order to achieve the greatest possible results.
Tivan looked at the situation of the battle and frowned vigorously. Although the alliance's comprehensive combat strength seems to have successfully overwhelmed the reinforcements of the Nakus Sanctuary at present, and has accumulated absolute superiority in the local battlefield, he has no intention of relaxing at all, but is full of doubts. It wasn't until the battlefield situation computer kept warning that dozens of Nakuth support fleets were on their way that he breathed a sigh of relief.
"The more attention is paid here, the more valuable it is, and the more meaningful our fight becomes. He moved his finger and immediately gave the order: "The fifth phase of the operation begins!"
The fleet immediately changed shape, and about half of the ships suddenly lowered their altitude and dived towards the Templar's base in a seemingly desperate manner. They immediately attracted all of their ground firepower, while the other fleets reversed course and changed their primary weapons from bombing mode to air supremacy and defense, acting as defenders of the Templar base.
The dive group fired the "shield piercing bombs" that had been prepared long ago and slammed them into the protective barrier of the ground base. It does not have a destructive effect, but only short-circuits the energy protection with instantaneous high energy. This only creates and lasts for a few seconds, no more than ten seconds at most, but enough for these ships to stick themselves in the position of ground shields.
When the shield comes back up, these ships stuck on it will take serious damage and will almost certainly be cut in half. But they create a passage for more commandos. Ancient siege towers and ladders still existed in the age of space and magic, but in a different appearance.
Reinforcements from Nakus leapt in from the space passage, immediately sparking a scuffle. This time, relying on the data sent back by the first wave of spaceships, the enemy directly transmitted to the position of the coalition forces, so it was a hand-to-hand combat with face to face and fist to fist. For an alliance that has achieved a favorable position, great results can be achieved in an instant. However, these results were not enough for immediate victory, and the madmen of the Templars did not care about their losses. They immediately tangled with each other, and countless ships were shattered by their protective systems, and then turned into meteors and fell.
On the battlefield, you can't be a little fake, you can't be lazy, and the boundary between life and death never tells jokes. As long as there is a slight lack of technology, it will be the end of the ship's wreck, and there is no chance of regret at all. In just a few minutes, hundreds of warships of all kinds, the "pride" of various planets, have been beaten out of prototypes. Planetary gravity captures them and tears them apart in the air without mercy, turning them into meteors.
The flagship of the "Soyuz" sits in charge of the Chinese army, is in charge of the entire battlefield, and constantly gives orders. Many of the orders were very ruthless, in order to win first, and then to consider the problem of rescue. Tivan had long since put away his usual businessman appearance and turned into a ruthless commander. He only cares about what he can do to get the best victory, and he can't take care of the loss for the time being.
"Almost, let's move on to the next step, let the Second Fleet form a counter-encirclement, and start teleporting. ”
There has never been a commander who has only prepared a wave of offensives, and even if he has, he will not live long. As an old monster that has survived for hundreds of millions of years, how could Tiwan make such a mistake? The fleets of the assault base need to work together to achieve a surprise effect, and there can't be too many of them. Once this requirement is gone, then of course the more reinforcements the better.
"The defenses here are by far the strongest, and no other Templar of Nagkoth has ever arranged and assembled so many ships in a single world. Tiwan couldn't hide the excitement in his heart: "Tell the assault team that they must make a breakthrough! In five minutes at most, the strike team will arrive, and at that time, the Templar of Naikus is very likely to jump off the wall! If we can't get the dark network generator before then, then our battle results will be greatly reduced!"
No matter what the era, war is desperate, and in this regard, Nakus has a great advantage in transforming people. It was difficult for the raiders to open the situation, and in order to complete the order, they had only one last way to go. Regardless of sacrifice and cost, the cooperation between various races to the east, can no longer care about the gains and losses of one aspect, and can only put the interests of the whole in the forefront. Sacrifice is inevitable, and the number is rising. But Tivan blocked all information about the number of casualties and focused only on results.
"Reported, we have taken control of the dark network generator, and the location information is sent to the battlefield calculator, with the highest priority. It's already under control, it's teleporting! Repeat, it's teleporting!"
"Immediately!" Tivan jumped up from his chair. Less than ten seconds later, the dark web generator fell under the control of the Ring Alliance.
At this time, reinforcements also arrived.
