247 Return to the Milky Way
"Your Majesty!"
"Three minutes ago, the military department received a report that the Scorpion Star Bandit Group had broken into the Auston Star Domain!"
As soon as he entered the audience room, the Minister of War, Seth, immediately reported loudly.
There was a hint of anxiety in his tone.
What is Auston, and how could he, as Minister of War, not know?
Even now, the entire blockade of Alston is led by him.
But now, it was broken into by a group of star thieves, which is a big joke in the world.
"Seth, tell me again, where did the Star Thieves break into?"
"Auston Starfield, Your Majesty!"
"You bastard!"
After receiving the confirmation, Gruin was immediately furious.
Auston was broken into, and this situation was even more serious for Gruen than the break-in of the Imperial Capital.
"Say, what the hell is going on!!"
"Your Majesty, you also know that we have deployed a 20-light-year-deep surveillance zone on the outskirts of Auston."
Hearing this, Gruen nodded.
He knew that, and that's what he asked for in the first place.
"However, the Scorpion Star Bandits have completely avoided this surveillance network, and what is even more strange is that Auston is a thousand light-years away from our border..."
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Grune immediately realized that the problem was far more serious than he thought.
Invaded the territory of the empire for thousands of light-years, but was not discovered.
In the end, it completely escaped the outskirts of Auston, the surveillance network that was twenty light years deep.
No matter how you look at it, this is not normal.
However, these can be studied later, and what Gruen wants to know now...
"And now? Where is the Scorpion Star Bandits, have they entered the core area, have they been exterminated? ”
"This... When we found out, the fleet of the Scorpion Pirates had already appeared in Amos, and although there were more than 2,000 warships there, except for a few warships in charge of guarding, the rest were warships that had just been produced and rolled off the assembly line and had not yet been put into service. ”
Seth said cautiously.
Although it is true that there were more than 2,000 warships in Amos, as he said, there were only dozens of warships in charge of guarding them, which were manned by soldiers.
The rest of the ...
All of them are warships that have been produced, but are currently only stored there, and have not been put into service.
In other words, that's two thousand target ships ...
As for the dozens of warships in charge of guarding, according to the combat power shown by the Scorpion Star Bandits in the past, they naturally cannot be compared to them.
So, what happened to the remaining two thousand, new warships that have not yet been put into service ...
Gruen could already predict something.
"Don't tell me, those 2,000 warships are all gone!"
"Not really, after defeating Amos's vigilant fleet, the Scorpion Star Bandits captured some soldiers and engineers, and then left directly."
Hearing this, Gruin immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
It's good that the new ships are not lost.
Speaking of which, after all, it is a group of star thieves, and they only know how to rob people, but they don't have any eyesight.
Wait a minute...
Grab people...
Can he who can be in Amos be an ordinary man?
"Seth, you just said that he robbed all the soldiers and engineers of Amos?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, and on the soldiers' side, they only pick high-ranking robbers..."
"Fool, immediately mobilize all the garrison fleets and regular fleets in the empire, and be sure to find the fleet of the Scorpion Star Pirates and destroy it!"
Those officers and specialists in Amos...
You can die, but you must not be kidnapped!
Because...
They know so much!
------
Just when Gruren gave the order, the entire fleet of the empire was mobilized.
In a colorful space, a hundred warships with a tattered appearance are moving forward in it.
It's not a regular space, it's a multidimensional space.
The essence of hyperspace is to forcibly tear open an opening to multidimensional space, so that warships can enter it to achieve the purpose of faster-than-light.
Therefore, no matter how many fleets Gu Ren sent, it was impossible to find or intercept the fleet of the Scorpion Star Pirates.
"Brigadier General, someone among the captives has already spoken."
"So fast?"
In the bridge, hearing his adjutant's report, Mu Qianshan was also stunned for a moment.
It's only been less than ten minutes before and after, and someone has already opened his mouth to confess, isn't it too fast?
"This, it's really the scorpion's group of people who are too ferocious..."
All right.
Hearing this answer, Mu Qianshan almost knew what the situation was.
After all, in the past two years or so, he has seen many times how the group of people under Liu Tao were interrogated.
It's really not something that ordinary people can bear, not to mention that many of the people who were captured this time were not imperial soldiers, but some experts who had not undergone military training.
It's normal for these people to not be able to bear it for even ten minutes.
"I'll take a look, I'll leave it to you!"
"Yes, Brigadier General!"
------
Ten minutes later.
Mu Qianshan stood outside the interrogation room with a solemn face.
And in the interrogation room, an engineer from the Kerry Empire has almost vomited everything he knows.
It turned out that there were more than 30 star systems in Auston, such as Amos, which were responsible for the production of new warships for the Empire.
Moreover, Amos's warship production line is not the largest, and in these more than thirty star systems, it can only be regarded as a medium number.
Although the engineer did not know the specific number of new warships, according to intelligence estimates, it must be more than 60,000.
At the same time, the data of those new warships have also been said a lot.
A new generation of energy technology, a new generation of energy weapon technology, a new generation of leap technology, and so on...
In short, almost all important technologies have made breakthroughs.
Not to mention that one battleship can fight ten main warships of the previous generation of the empire, but against two at the same time, it must be fine.
In other words, these more than 60,000 new warships, if you look at them from the perspective of comprehensive combat power, can be regarded as more than 100,000 imperial main warships of the previous generation.
Sure enough, Gruin was playing this game again.
If it weren't for the Star Sea Federation, the Kairui Empire would definitely be able to easily wipe out all the civilizations in the entire galaxy in a few years.
Soon, this information was transmitted to the Great Magellanic system, within the federal military headquarters.
After a brief discussion at the top, a decision was made immediately.
This force will be the biggest resistance to the Federation's counterattack on the galaxy, and it must not be allowed to go!
But it's also more troublesome.
If these more than 60,000 warships are concentrated, then the military department will definitely make the decision to use gravity bombs, a big killer.
However, this is scattered across more than thirty star systems, and the maximum kill range of a tactical-grade gravity bomb is only one light-year.
Unless more than 30 gravity bombs are used in the same way, it is simply impossible to solve the problem at once.
After all, the number of gravity bombs left in the Federation's hands now is only more than a dozen.
So, the idea doesn't work.
But considering that, according to Mu Qianshan's report, none of these warships seem to have been officially put into use.
Maybe you can take this opportunity to directly hit a wave of sneak attacks?
The more Lu Weiming thinks about it, the more reliable it is.
Even if it was because of Mu Qianshan that he attracted the attention of Gu Ren, the Kairui Empire wanted to send a large number of soldiers in and use these warships thoroughly...
It's simply not possible in a month or two!
And this time is enough time for the Federation fleet to launch a surprise operation!
Thereupon...
Soon, an order was conveyed to Jiang Xingchen's side.
Due to the change in circumstances, the First Fleet was the first to set off, returning to the galaxy and carrying out the raid plan for the Auston star field.
Destroy all the new warships of the Kerry Empire!
