526 Snatch
In the end, after the consultation of a group of tribal elders, it was decided to send 100,000 warships to escort the convoy.
According to their logic, even the Awei tribe could not defeat their 100,000 warships in an instant.
Therefore, if the Awei tribe dares to continue to attack the trade fleet, the escort fleet can directly break up and flee after getting the evidence.
Eventually, all it takes is one battleship that can escape alive and get the word out.
Then, the Awei tribe will face the catastrophe of annihilation.
As for the original lack of troops, nearly half of the warships had to be dispatched.
Several elders have weighed it too.
In the end, they all thought that even if there were only more than 100,000 warships left to defend, the price that the Awei tribe would have to pay if they wanted to take this fault...
It is also unacceptable to them.
Moreover, once the escort fleet makes progress, maybe it can end this crisis directly, right?
So, they're willing to take a risk.
------
Meanwhile.
Thousands of light years away.
A fleet of thousands of ships is being slaughtered unilaterally at the moment.
Although the raiders had only a hundred battleships, the question is ...
Look at them as a trading fleet, barely capable of any combat effectiveness.
The most important thing is that the strength of the opponent...
Even if they were replaced by the main force of their tribe, they would not be able to defeat it with a scale of more than a thousand ships.
One battleship after another, constantly being blasted in the air without any resistance.
On the other side, inside one of the battleships of the attackers...
"Is it already certain?"
"Yes, for sure!"
"Okay, order the fleet to cease fire, and then send mecha troops and assault ships to forcibly control that spaceship!"
"Yes, Major General!"
Speaking of which, although the captives that Jiang Xingchen captured at the beginning were all some warship soldiers, they didn't know the specific technology.
But they are not without effect.
Because, after the torture of the intelligence department, the Federation got a lot of information.
[Name of faction: Antu tribe]
[Number of warships: about 1.1 million (about 260,000 in existence)]
[Number of fighters: about 170 million (about 67 million in existence)]
......
I won't talk about these basic information.
On top of that, the fault on which the Antu tribe is located, as well as the coordinates of the entrance...
Commonly used trade routes...
How to avoid space turbulence when the fleet is sailing...
And so on!
All of them were asked by the intelligence services.
Therefore, although Bai Zhuo's ultimate plan is to enter the fault where the Antu tribe is located to seize the scientific and technological information.
But before he can do that, he needs to do a lot of preparation.
And the first step is these so-called survival trade fleets!
It's a step that kills three birds with one stone.
First of all, according to the information asked by the intelligence department, when the fleet of the hunter civilization goes out, even if it is a small fleet, there will inevitably be a ship equipped with a fault simulation device to isolate the invasion of space turbulence.
After all, these raiders are not fifth-order civilizations, nor do they master technologies such as spatial teleportation or hyperspace, and still use the Leap Engine.
And after each jump, they have to stop for a while.
Then, in order not to be ravaged by the turbulence of space during the period of stopping, the tomography simulator is something that must be carried.
Through this equipment, a kind of barrier can be established on a certain area that mimics the outer wall of the fault to prevent the spatial turbulence from entering and wreaking havoc.
In this way, it was possible to ensure the safe navigation of the fleet.
Then, if you attack these trade fleets, you can easily grab this device.
Even if the invasion fails, the Federation will not gain nothing, will it?
It's a...
Second, in this way, you can draw out a part of the forces in the fault to reduce the pressure on your own follow-up.
After all, more than 200,000 warships blocked the door, and even with Yinglong-class battleships that were much stronger than them, Bai Zhuo didn't have the confidence to fight hard.
Therefore, the best way is to lure out all the internal forces step by step.
Then, take advantage of the emptiness inside it and find the right time to enter it.
As for the third...
Scratch your tongue.
After all, the intelligence department asked for information, it was all 20 years ago, and the devil knows how much has changed now.
So, grab some tongue and come back and get the latest intel...
This is also a must-do.
As for how to interrogate quickly?
Bai Zhuo said that he was not worried at all.
Originally, people from the intelligence department came along, and in the past twenty years, the Federation has long had something for this creature, similar to a truth elixir.
Inject the drug directly into its body, and then after a few minutes, it will definitely be a state of asking what to answer.
It's just easy and enjoyable.
At the same time, in order to prevent the defeat of the battle, Bai Zhuoke specially divided the fleet into five routes, each of which was a hundred Yinglong-class warships.
Then they lay an ambush on the trade route, and when they found out, they did not act immediately, but followed silently.
After all five roads have confirmed the target, they will start at the same time.
As for tracking being discovered?
That's impossible.
The Federation's Atos metal coating is no joke.
Unless it happens to be observed, otherwise, even if the distance is close, these civilizations that have not reached the fifth order level will definitely not be able to detect the existence of the Federation warship.
At this moment, according to Bai Zhuo's order.
A large number of Sky Dome mechs have already departed, along with a large number of assault ships loaded with motorized infantry.
Although on these trading ships, there are some close-range weapons.
But unfortunately, this weapon is not too threatening, even for energy shields.
At most, it can fight the fighters of other tribes.
And whether it's a Sky Dome mecha or an assault ship, these are all shielded.
Completely unafraid of the attack of those backward close defense weapons.
Soon, as the engines of one trading ship after another were destroyed, the hulls were also broken, and a large number of motorized infantry rushed into them.
Between the two sides, there is a gap between two levels of civilization.
Even in terms of individual soldier technology, it is also insurmountable.
It's just over ten minutes.
The remaining hundreds of trading ships were all controlled.
"Report, the tomography simulator in the intelligence has been found!"
"Is there a way to disassemble without closing?"
"It should be, according to reports, that device is self-contained and does not have any physical connection to the ship."
"Very good, but for the sake of safety, let all the troops return to the battleship, and then send out the engineering mechs through remote control, dismember the spaceship and take out the device, and finally bring it back to our battleship."
"Yes, Admiral!"
Execute all the Antu tribesmen.
Immediately, everyone returned.
At the same time, several engineering mecha also flew out of Bai Zhuo's car.
Their task was simple, to make a sufficiently large opening in the shell of the target location.
Then take the target device out of this opening, and eventually...
Bring it back to the battleship!
