Jiang Xingchen's tactics, in fact, what he really want to say are very simple.

It is nothing more than to take advantage of the characteristics of up to 38 nodes in the nebula channel, as well as the weakness of the starry sky zerg's lack of understanding of the channel structure, to carry out a segmented block of echelon configuration.

Of course, the original echelon configuration of segmented blocking refers to dividing the forces into multiple echelons, and then when the first echelon cannot withstand it, the second echelon covers its retreat, and then takes over the blocking task, and so on.

But Jiang Xingchen's this one has some differences.

Because whether it is the first echelon, the second echelon, or the later echelon, there is only Hou Yi himself.

And at the beginning, in the face of this set of tactics, there were also captains who proposed that they would fight like this, so why not let the rest of the warships participate?

In this way, wouldn't every blocking battle be able to reap more great results?

In this regard, Jiang Xingchen also gave an explanation.

In the Starry Sky Zerg, there is such a special existence as the tailed scorpion, if it is Hou Yi himself, it is okay, with its speed and irregular maneuvering, it can greatly reduce the hit rate of the tail scorpion, even if it will be hit some, but Hou Yi's shield can also be completely resisted.

But the question is, can the Houyi resist, the Wuluo-class destroyer, or the Qingluan-class frigate?

The answer is clearly no.

Therefore, only the Houyi can carry out this mission, and other warships really can't get involved.

------

Half a year later.

March of the Dark Age 409.

Nebula Channel Node 38.

At this moment, with the latest batch of frigates and destroyers off the assembly line, the number of warships deployed here has reached the scale of 27.

Among them, there are 7 Wuluo-class destroyers and 20 Qingluan-class frigates.

In addition, there are 87 sets of fixed defense platforms newly built, which are specially developed for the Zerg, which has a simple structure, low technical content, and a very short construction period.

Therefore, it also has a lot of disadvantages.

There are no propulsion devices on the platform, it is a completely stationary stationary defensive platform, and the weapon system only has a magnetic railgun array, which has very limited lethality and hit rate.

Crucially, the platform has no defenses, neither energy shields nor armor.

It can be said that there is no defense.

If this is applied to the battlefield between technological civilizations, it will be a piece of garbage.

However, when dealing with the Zerg, it is a good hand.

Each of its platforms is equipped with 96 sets of railgun arrays, and when 87 platforms fire at the same time...

A large-scale barrage can be deployed directly to effectively strike at the sea of insects.

Of course, this is limited to fighting the sea of insects, and it will definitely have no effect on the insect mounds.

"How's the situation with Hou Yi?"

"Report to the Admiral, I just received the report from Hou Yi in one minute, and I am expected to make the final jump in eight minutes."

"Well, tell Jiang Xingchen, be steady, don't overturn at the last moment!"

"Understood!"

As the commander of the fleet command, Mu Zhengfeng had already come to the front line and personally commanded the big battle.

Originally, it should have been the Houyi as the flagship, but after all, the Descendants were still on combat missions in the Nebula Channel and were not here, so the Wuluo temporarily became the flagship.

------

The thirty-seventh node of the Nebula Channel.

"47% of the shield remains."

After the battleship shook violently, a report immediately sounded in the bridge.

"Wang Feng, you have one more chance to fire at most."

"Understood, the Positive Electron Shattering Star Cannon is deploying, the target has been locked, the 355-meter-level worm mound, adjust to full power mode, fire!"

"45% of the shield remains."

Just as the Yang Electron Cannon was blasted out, seven or eight energy bombs emitted by tailed scorpions bombarded Wu Luo's body fiercely.

"Captain, the target has been destroyed, we should still have time to fight another round!"

"No need, the maximum combat speed of the battleship, after getting out of the range of the tailed scorpion, evacuate to the thirty-eighth node!"

"Yes, Captain!"

For Jiang Xingchen, even if he killed another level 300 worm mound, it didn't have much strategic significance.

On the contrary, it may be a bad luck and be directly hit by dozens or hundreds of tailed scorpions at the same time...

After all, flying irregularly is just a contest of luck, and no one can say how many attacks will hit them in the next wave.

It may not be a single shot, but it may also be hundreds.

Who knows?

Therefore, as Mu Zhengfeng said, be steady, 45% of the shield remnants can already be said to be a dangerous area, don't overturn at the last moment.

The next moment.

The sub-light engine was running at full speed, and the Houyi immediately entered the acceleration mode, gradually moving from 100km per second to 180km/s, leaving the Starry Sky Zerg far behind.

"Captain, you've entered the passageway!"

"Turn off the energy shield and start the jump engine!"

"Execution... The Energy Shield has been turned off and the Jump Engine has been activated. ”

"Jump!"

......

Watching the human warship leap and escape, Chabir had nothing to do.

At this moment, it is a little difficult to ride a tiger.

In the beginning, he had 200 mounds under his command.

But now?

There are less than 80 of them!

In other words, in half a year, he was killed by Jiang Xingchen about more than 120 insect mounds, and he couldn't do anything about him.

Every time he saw that he was about to take it, the other party jumped and ran away.

And when he finally reached the next node, the other party appeared in front of him again, and after some entanglement and killing a few worm mounds, he slipped away again!

After 29 consecutive times, it is the result of today, which is simply a dog.

If you don't continue, will it be difficult to go back?

It's impossible, I finally got 200 worm mounds from McHedi, and if I go back, then all my plans will be in vain.

Moreover, I don't believe that there is no end to this passage, go on!

Anyway, the losses are all those small 3,400-meter-level mounds, and the mounds that are the main force still don't have any losses, right?

Soon, according to the previous method, Chabir sent a worm mound into the passage where the Hou Yi jumped, and began the ultra-short distance jump again and again to determine the length of the passage.

------

Seven days later.

As the last stop of the Nebula Channel, the thirty-eighth node.

Twenty-eight warships, 87 defensive platforms, plus more than 5,000 Raider mechs.

Together, a defensive line was formed, firmly holding a section of the node about 300 kilometers wide.

Don't look at the range of 300 km is huge, but in reality in an interstellar war, it's really not big.

As I said before, the safe distance between the warships of various civilizations and the warships is basically more than ten kilometers, plus the assistance of 87 sets of defense platforms...

28 warships can really hold an area of 300 km.

However, although it is no longer the descendants to fight alone, this battle is far more difficult than any previous battle.

Because...

Behind it is the Canglan system, and the fleet has no way to retreat.

And in this channel environment, there is no room to rotate, only...

It's hard!
