The first main spiral arm of the Milky Way.

Auston Starfield.

Gabriel's galaxy.

In space, a large number of warships and man-made structures have been reduced to a large wreckage at this moment.

Obviously, there had just been a battle here, and it was quite a fierce battle.

The wreckage of the battleships alone was at least two thousand.

It's just that the strange thing is that in such a tragic battlefield, the wreckage of those battleships turned out to be the same civilization.

This all shows that although the battle was fierce, it was a one-sided slaughter.

The intruder, on the other hand, has already left and is missing.

In the imperial capital of the Kerry Empire.

Looking at the scene footage transmitted back, this tragic scene made Gu Renn grit his teeth with hatred.

"Immediately mobilize the fleet into the Auston Star Field, and at the same time let those new warships that have already entered service move for me!"

"Your Majesty, the soldiers who have been sent to Auston can only operate about 3,000 warships, and they have just taken over the warships, and they have not yet formed a complete combat effectiveness."

"It doesn't matter if the combat power is complete or not, the important thing is to let them give me a bite of the human fleet and win time for the main force to enter Auston!"

"This..."

"What, is there a problem?"

"Your Majesty, we don't have a fleet to mobilize now!"

“......”

It's okay not to say this, but Grune himself is stunned.

I was so angry just now that I forgot about it for a while.

The empire now has a fleet of 32,000 conventional warships, plus 3,000 garrison warships.

Let's start with the conventional warships, 20,000 of which are stationed at the entrance and exit of the first main spiral arm and the Silver Heart Passage, which is almost 3,000 light-years away from the imperial capital.

And the remaining 12,000...

It's all going to encircle and suppress the Scorpion Star Thieves.

Speaking of the garrison fleet, two of the three garrison fleets were also sent out by themselves to participate in the operation of encircling and suppressing the scorpion pirate group.

In other words, around the imperial capital, there is only one garrison fleet left that can be mobilized, that is, 1,000 warships.

I'll you...

"Give Kyle an order to abandon his mission to encircle and suppress the Scorpion Bandits, and return to Auston as quickly as possible!"

"Your Majesty, even if Kyle's side wants to come back now, it will take at least ten days."

"Otherwise, what else do you do?"

"This..."

"Go, send the last garrison fleet stationed in the imperial capital over, and cooperate with the 3,000 new warships that have been put into service over there to block the human fleet in total!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"By the way, although the main fleet has not had time to pass, we still have 60,000 new warships in Auston, and what we lack is only people."

"Your Majesty means..."

"Order all the surrounding districts, mobilize all their garrison fleets, and give me all access to Auston!"

"Your Majesty, if you let the garrison fleet pass, I'm afraid it will be in vain, and the gap in combat power is too big..."

"Idiot, who let them fight with humans in the past, although their military quality is much worse than the soldiers of our main fleet, but no matter what, they will also be able to drive warships!"

"Your Majesty, do you mean to let them enter Auston and change into a new type of warship?"

"Or else?"

Glaring at Seth, Grunn said angrily.

If it weren't for the group of soldiers who had just started training for the new type of warships, would he let those fools who had both fleets go to pilot the latest and strongest warships in the Empire?

But isn't there no way?

At least, after letting these guys come over, they will be able to arm at least 20,000 warships in a few days, right?

With such a force, even if the quality of the soldiers is too poor to defeat the human fleet.

But if it drags on for more than ten days, it should be no problem to wait for the return of the main fleet.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I'll arrange it immediately!"

Hours later.

Auston Starfield.

Somewhere in the star system, a fleet of 3,000 Zhurong-class warships stayed here.

Around the fleet, a large number of wrecks are floating.

"Commander, this is already the last battleship production base determined by Brigadier General Mu Qianshan."

"The three places we destroyed, plus the one destroyed by Brigadier General Mu Qianshan before, conservatively estimated, there are at least nearly thirty places."

In the bridge of the Xingchen, Fu Wanting reported.

There are a total of 1,578 star systems in this Auston field.

Where the rest of the battleship production lines are deployed, we can only find them one by one.

And if the 1578 star systems want to search all of them, even if Jiang Xingchen divides his troops, I'm afraid it will take ten days and half a month to complete.

"Commander, we have detected that a fleet has appeared thirteen light-years away, and the size should be around 3,000 ships."

"At the same time, judging by the results of deep space scanning, these warships should be at least cruiser class, and most likely even battleship class."

Radar Officer Li Yao's report made Jiang Xingchen frown slightly.

Three thousand battleships, at least also cruiser class ...

Obviously, this should not be the regular fleet of the Kerry Empire.

At the same time, only these new warships should be able to meet this one ship.

So, Alston already has a group of soldiers of the new warship in place and is up and running?

They must be annihilated while they are still numerous.

Otherwise, once more ships are up and running, and once they are brought together, it will not be easy to deal with.

Of course, Jiang Xingchen would not be stupid and run over to confront that fleet.

After all, these new warships of the Kairui Empire are really good.

Except for the lack of hyperspace engines, it is no worse than the Zhurong-class battleship.

If you fight head-to-head, even if you can take down the opponent, you will lose more than half of your fleet.

This...

This is not the result Jiang Xingchen wants.

"Commander, what are we going to do now, do we want to transfer immediately?"

"Although the new warships of the Carey Empire are not weak, they still have an Achilles heel, that is... There is no hyperspace engine. ”

Shaking his head, Jiang Xingchen said.

"However, although they don't have hyperspace engines, their firepower and range are not closer than ours..."

On the side, Fu Wanting said with some concern.

No matter how you ambush it, the opponent's firepower is no worse than your own, and the range is not closer than your own.

In other words, if you can hit them, they can hit you.

In this empty universe, ambushes don't make much sense.

"That's true, yes, but recently I came up with an interesting tactic that I could just try."

"Interesting tactics?"

"Yes, at this distance, I believe the other party should also find us, right?"

"That's how it should be!"

Nodding, Fu Wanting replied.

"General Staff, draw a straight line with the position of the opponent's fleet and the position of our fleet, and extend it backwards for fifty light-seconds along this straight line, and mark the coordinates for me."

"Mark complete, Commander!"

This work is very simple, in a few seconds, the staff team has been completed, and the position requested by Jiang Xingchen has been marked on the star map.

"Wanting, arrange a battleship, go to this position, and..."

"Deploy a jump jammer!"

"After that, immediately after the jump jamming is initiated, the jamming boundary is determined, and at the location of the boundary, a minefield is deployed."

"A minefield consisting of cold fusion bombs..."

Hiss...

Hearing this, Fu Wanting had already realized what Jiang Xingchen was going to do.

Immediately took a hard breath.

"Understood!"
