037 Aggressive tactics

According to the intelligence, the size of the fleet of the Thor people stationed in the Hailan star system is 61 ships.

Among them, there was one cruiser, twelve destroyers, forty-eight frigates, in addition to which there were 826 space fighters, of which 360 were located in the fortress.

Although it looks quite bluffing, in fact, the only thing that is really worth being afraid of is that cruiser!

After all, it's only a second-level primary civilization, not to mention things like energy weapons and energy shields, not even jump technology.

Want to buy them all from your own overlord civilization?

Yes, yes, but the price of buying a fleet is definitely not something that the Republic of Shors can afford.

Therefore, except for the cruiser that was equipped with an energy shield and an energy weapon as the main gun, the rest of the battleships did not have an energy shield at all, and even the weapons were basically all railguns.

As for the jump engine, this one is available to all ships.

It's just a third-level civilization product, and the price is not as exaggerated as a fourth-level civilization product, and it is still within the affordability of the Shorr Republic.

Of course, although the cruiser is equipped with the weapons and energy shields of the Kyle Empire, the Carey Empire will definitely not sell them its most advanced technology, basically whether it is firepower or defense, it is roughly the same level as the Wuluo.

It's threatening, but it's not impossible.

Therefore, the most critical point is still how to not let go of any warship in the process of annihilating it.

For a while, everyone was a little silent, and no one came up with any good ideas.

Normally, unless all the warships are destroyed in an instant, people will always be able to run away if they want to, and the whole process of jumping will only take a few seconds.

"Admiral Mu, can I ask what level of jump engine the Thor warship uses?"

Finally, Jiang Xingchen, who had not spoken from the beginning to now, spoke.

According to the division of civilizations in the galaxy, the jump engine is divided into three levels.

The first level, which is the most basic jump engine, can only jump with the help of the gravitational field of the celestial body, and the destination can only be set within the gravitational field of the celestial body.

To put it simply, you can only go from planet to planet, and you can't jump to a place where there is no gravitational field.

In the second level, although it is also necessary to use the gravitational field of the celestial body to open a gravitational channel to achieve the jump, the destination...

However, it can be set anywhere in the range of a single jump.

Finally, there's the third level of jump engines.

After entering the fourth-level civilization and further developing technology, the warship no longer needs to rely on the gravitational field of celestial bodies, but can generate a temporary gravitational field by itself through special devices to achieve the purpose of jumping.

In other words, there will be no restrictions on the point of departure or the point of arrival.

"According to intelligence, that cruiser is of the second rank, and the rest are of the first rank."

"After all, it's only a second-level primary civilization, and its territory and resources are very limited, so it's impossible to play all of them."

Mu Zhengfeng replied.

"In that case, let's lure the enemy with a small number of warships first, and then jump behind the rest of the warships after the Thor's fleet is far away from the planet."

"On the one hand, it will form a flanking attack with the decoy enemy fleet, and on the other hand, it will cut off its route to retreat into the planet's gravity field!"

After hearing Mu Zhengfeng's affirmative answer, Jiang Xingchen also said his thoughts.

However, what no one noticed was that a flash of disappointment flashed in Mu Zhengfeng's eyes.

It's not that Jiang Xingchen's tactic is problematic, on the contrary, this tactic is exactly the same as what Mu Zhengfeng thought in his heart.

He and Lu Weiming also conducted dozens of simulations on this tactic, and finally came to a conclusion.

This method worked, and as long as there were no surprises, the losses of the rebels should be limited to three frigates.

The reason why he didn't directly announce the battle plan at the beginning was actually that he had some expectations in his heart, expecting Jiang Xingchen to give a better and amazing plan like the previous times.

But unfortunately, this hope was disappointed, so there was a little bit of disappointment.

However, at this moment, Jiang Xingchen spoke again.

"Admiral, I actually have a more radical idea..."

"Huh? You said! ”

Hearing this, Mu Zhengfeng immediately became energetic.

He is not afraid that Jiang Xingchen is radical, he is afraid that he is mediocre.

"Although there is no big problem with that plan just now, after all, the other party has a cruiser, and it is equipped with energy weapons and energy shields."

"So, although we can take down the other party and prevent the other party from passing on the message, there is also a problem, that is, our own losses will definitely not be small."

"I just made a preliminary estimate that if we send eight frigates and one destroyer, even if everything goes well, our losses are estimated to be three frigates."

"But obviously, this loss is a bit big for our current situation!"

Hearing this, Mu Zhengfeng was also slightly surprised.

Is this the effect of the brain domain being developed by 20%?

You must know that even he and Lu Weiming came to this conclusion after dozens of simulations, and even with the assistance of computers.

However, Jiang Xingchen only calculated this result in a few minutes, just by relying on his own head, and it was extremely accurate.

This really surprised him a little.

"So, is there anything you can do to reduce your losses?"

"Yes, use a Jiangkai Type 3 patrol ship to directly replace the opponent's cruiser!"

"Huh? Let's talk about how to do it! ”

Obviously, Jiang Xingchen aroused Mu Zhengfeng's curiosity.

Replace a patrol ship with a Jiang Kai III patrol ship with an energy shield?

Is this kind of thing really possible?

If so, how?

Not only Mu Zhengfeng was curious, but all the captains present were also very curious.

"The previous battle report of the Wuluo against the two Carey Imperial frigates, the admiral should have read it, right?"

"Yes, does this have anything to do with what you just said?"

"Naturally, there is, but in fact, the method is very simple, that is, the method I used when I destroyed that frigate in the first place is reversed!"

At least the captains of the rebel frigates are all here, and the battle reports of the original battle, especially the process of Jiang Xingchen driving the mecha to destroy the frigate, have long been issued as a classic battle example, and they have naturally seen it.

The method of destroying enemy ships using jump channels, and the reverse application?

Even though this step has been said, many people still haven't reacted, but...

Mu Zhengfeng understood a little, and then his eyes suddenly lit up.

But there seems to be another problem here.

"I understand the method you said, but there is one thing I don't understand, since you want to use this method, then just find a transport ship, the effect should be the same, right?"

"Why do you have to use a Jiangkai-3 patrol ship?"

After a slight silence, Mu Zhengfeng asked.

"There are three reasons for this."

"First, although we can imitate the jump engine today, there is still a big gap in the accuracy of the target compared to the jump engine on the Hope or Fuxing, and whether this method can be successful depends largely on the absolute accuracy of the jump, and there can be no error."

"Second, the cargo ship we built ourselves does not have the ability to control remotely, and if we have to use a cargo ship, then we must take the lives of several crew members."

"Although we can achieve the purpose of remote control by transforming a cargo ship, because of the original design problems, I am afraid that it will have to be overhauled."

"It's not just a hassle, it's a lot of time, and it's impossible to do without a month or two."

"One last point, well, as it stands, cargo ships are far more important than patrol ships!"

"After all, a cargo ship can take tens of thousands of people with a single run, but a patrol ship... It would be nice to have 200 people. ”

Although Jiang Xingchen said three points, in fact, the most important point is the first point.

If the success rate of using the Hope or Fuxing to carry out this mission can reach 80%, then the success rate of using cargo ships may only be 40%, and it will be cut in half.

That's the most important thing.

The entire conference room fell silent in an instant, and everyone's faces showed a look of deep thought.

I have to say that Jiang Xingchen's method is indeed very radical.

Because, even with the Hope or the Fuxing, the success rate is not 100%, and if you don't know it, it will be the loss of a patrol ship in vain.

But on the contrary, if it succeeds, it is possible that the rebels will not even lose a single frigate in this battle.

Is it radical?

Radical indeed!

However, it's worth a try!

The next moment, Mu Zhengfeng had already made a decision in his heart! “
