Chapter 743: The Legion's Whetstone
Ella Star, Executor Base 31.
Hall, who had ended his trip to his home planet, finally reappeared at the base after disappearing for half a year. As soon as he returned, he drove out the members of the investigation team who had to participate in the combat meeting in the past, leaving only Dieter, the leader of the technical support team, to participate in the meeting.
Of course, Dieter certainly couldn't get rid of him - he was a prophet, although he was very low.
At the same time, at his strong request, Liana also returned to the base from the Frost System and rejoined the investigation team as the deputy leader.
This series of means allowed him to quickly regain control of the situation at Base 31 on the day of his return.
The door to the main conference room slowly closed, leaving only a few members of the investigation team looking at each other with dark faces.
……
"Your Excellency Dieter, so we're going to begin?"
Hall, who sat in the throne unyieldingly, showed his harmless smile and smiled kindly at Prophet Dieter, asking for his opinion.
Prophet Dieter smiled back: "Mr. CEO, you don't have to be polite. ”
"Then let's report on the current situation first."
Hall's voice fell, and the crystals above the conference table also lowered colorful light, and then converged to form a light curtain, and after a while, a three-dimensional star map appeared in the light curtain.
On the star map, green spots representing fleets are shining.
It only takes a glance to see that the goal of these fleets is to set off towards the inconspicuous 32717 galaxy in the center of the star map.
In the 32717 galaxy, the green dot of light representing Mai's fleet is rapidly approaching a large yellow dot of light.
"The movements of the human fleet have not escaped our judgment, they have gathered the Krons and another unknown fleet to form a large combined fleet - and it should be noted that according to the information sent back from the previous destruction of Decca's fleet, the human race should still have a fleet with capital ships."
As Hall spoke, he shifted his vision to the reconnaissance ship's combined vision of optical and electromagnetic detectors.
Through the analysis of the intelligent brain, the front-line reconnaissance ship can easily capture and restore any object in the galaxy currently located through electromagnetic detectors, and once the trajectory is determined, it can also be restored with the most accurate accuracy through optical detectors.
Therefore, when the vision is zoomed in, the different types of warships of the human race are easily simulated and formed in the void by the intelligent brain.
"There are currently five of humanity's strongest capital ships, including a slow-moving mothership, but now there is one less." Hall said and looked at the crowd, "What does this mean?" Does it mean that the humans think they can defeat Mai's fleet even if they have one less main fleet? ”
"I don't think so."
"I've reviewed the way humans fight many times, and I've found that every fight of humans is with all their might. Where did this fleet, so little, go? ”
"Is it defensive?" Dika glanced left and right and replied first.
He already knew his fate - after destroying the human race, he reported to the Legion's headquarters.
Frankly, this kind of ending ...... Although it is not as good as outside, as far as he is concerned, the second executive officer who buried more than 500 warships...... It's already the best ending.
Without a fleet, after learning of his arrangement, he quickly calmed down and began to look at the problem from the perspective of the entire campaign, striving to be a good military officer for Hall.
After all, the war is not over, and he is still a member of Base 31.
"Obviously!" Hall's eyes burned, and he snorted softly, "You can guess with your toes that they are worried that we will cut off their back path directly from the 32721 galaxy - and at the same time, they can also quickly support the 32717 galaxy." ”
"Of course, it's possible that they're going to defend 32911 - but based on the last information from Kroze when they were captured, I'm skewed that humans will set up defenses in the 32911 galaxy - by the way, what is 32911 called? It seems to be the Auriga Galaxy? ”
Liana nodded, "Auriga Galaxy." After a while, Liana's face rose with worry: "It's Base 32 that is in charge of going over there, do you want to remind them?" ”
"It's been reminded, and there's an antimatter galaxy 31919 over there. I even have a vague feeling that, according to human habits, it is unlikely that they will let go of the 31919 galaxy. ”
At this time, Prophet Dieter was slightly surprised: "Humans have mastered antimatter? ”
"There's no evidence yet, but don't forget, humans captured at least one of the Enlightenment......" Hale said and snorted again, "I don't intend to overstate the strength of humans, but ...... Even the high-level warships that the Legion has been on guard against are easily given to humans who are constantly increasing their technology...... All I can say is that the Enlightenment Society is very good and strong. ”
Immediately the people stopped talking.
Everyone knows that the Enlightenment Society has captured two people this time, and it is supposed to cooperate with the Legion to wipe out humanity in one fell swoop. But for some reason, the Tus Association didn't say much.
"Hall, I don't think there's too much to worry about." Prophet Dieter smiled slightly: "Even if humanity obtains the Enlightenment, it is impossible to decipher the technology in a short period of time - if that is the case, the human civilization is too freak." ”
"That being said, it's just that we've already suffered too many careless losses before." Hale exhaled slowly, cutting back to the star map: "Now the goal of the humans is clear, which is to seize control of the jump point - as long as they do, they can rely on their weapon superiority to concentrate on defeating Mai's fleet. ”
Hale said and looked at everyone: "Let's put ourselves in our shoes, if we were humans, what would we do after defeating Mai's fleet?" ”
Everyone looked at each other, and then Mai, who was pulled out to give an example, snorted softly: "If it were me, I would definitely continue to move forward." ”
"Huh...... Do you think that an army that guards the jump point at the first time will advance all the way? Or rather...... Would a civilization with extremely strong production capacity be so recklessly plunged into an unknown universe to fight a vast and ancient civilization? ”
With Hall's voice, everyone fell into thought.
Liana also nodded slowly: "I agree with Hall, humans must establish a stable line of defense on the premise of benefiting themselves. ”
"So......" Hall's eyes lit up, his gaze fell on the fleets that were silently advancing in galaxies that were impossible for humans to detect, he exhaled slowly, and said softly, "Just as the saber will become dull if it is not sharpened for too long, the legion will lose its combat effectiveness if it has not fought for too long." ”
"And the human fleet is our best whetstone."
Hall's voice fell, and the mechanically synthesized voice rang out at the same time.
"Commander, it is expected to enter the target airspace in three hours, please be ready for battle."
"Commander, it has been detected that the enemy's super-high-speed warship is approaching the fleet and cannot be captured."
"Commander, please be ready for battle."
The mechanically synthesized voice did not carry a trace of emotion, but it suddenly made the conference room quiet.
Everyone looked at each other with doubts on their faces.
Super-high-speed warships?
Hall was also extremely puzzled, and he quickly located the light curtain to the 32717 galaxy.
I saw that in the 32717 galaxy at this time, the fleets of the two sides were constantly moving in a triangular area with three jump points as the apex.
Among them, the fleet of humans and their minions takes on a distinct V-shape, and the soldiers are divided into two ways towards the fleet of Mai in the shape of a "one".
After a moment of silence, Hall took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Can you determine the speed?" ”
"Electromagnetic detection."
"Speed has been gained, ten percent of the speed of light."
When the voice fell, Hall's eyes flashed instantly, and he roared: "! ”
- In this universe, except for the elusive missiles of human beings, only the Enlightenment has such speed.
"Mai, command the battle."
"Autumn, your fleet has jumped into the main star path, and you must arrive at the 32717 galaxy to join Mai within half a month."
Qiu, who had been silent, nodded slowly, frowned after a moment and asked, "CEO, I have a question." ”
"What's the problem?"
"That human communication ship is on the main star path, right?"
Liana replied for Hall: "Yes, I gave the star path. ”
"I approve of the practice of having human communication ships come to the Frost System to communicate at the time. But we must realize that human communication ships are essentially reconnaissance ships. ”
Qiu said slowly, the expression on his face became serious: "Are you sure that after we jump into the main star path, the humans will not detect it?" ”
All eyes were on Liana at the same time.
Liana snorted softly: "Mai's reconnaissance ship has carried out a dragnet sweep of the main star path, and we have also inspected the human communication ship, which is the simplest interdimensional signal ship, and there is no place to release the detector." ”
"Then I'll be relieved."
Qiu nodded slowly: "What I'm most worried about is that our movements will be completely controlled by the enemy...... Neither our purpose is to destroy the enemy or to play with the enemy, but it is impossible to achieve the goal. ”
……
Sophie's Galaxy.
Mercury.
Yang Wenzhi's uniform was straight, his hands were behind his back, and the colonel's badge on his shoulders was shining.
At this time, although he stood like a pine like a military posture, there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
On the big screen, the modified Enlightener almost crossed into the eastern jump point under the nose of the enemy, and then the feedback of the tachyon radar and electromagnetic radar of the Dias 2 galaxy was heard for the first time - fortunately, the existence of enemy warships was not found in the Dias 2 system.
This means that the coalition fleet will have at least half a month to worry about a wave of enemies coming out of thin air from the eastern jump point.
And the reason why this time is set at half a month is, of course, because of the distance between the two jump points of the Dias 2 galaxy...... According to the current speed of the enemy's fleet, it will run for exactly half a month - what if the enemy is on the way?
Otherwise, why would this enemy and humans come to seize the eastern jump point?
At this time, Aisara's voice sounded beside her, and she pointed to her wrist as she spoke: "Old Yang, we have twenty minutes to meet the enemy." ”
"I've been watching." Yang Wenzhi's gaze fell on the lower left corner of the tactical map.
In the inconspicuous lower left corner, there is an icon that looks like a grain of rice, and the distance and time are constantly beating behind the icon.
This is the prediction of the attack of the rice grains carried by the fastest high-speed battlecruiser "Hayabusa" by mankind.
Although there was still half an hour to go, the enemy's long snake formation was about to meet with the fastest Silvermoon fleet in the coalition at the eastern jump point, but the enemy's fleet was ...... faster It's not as fast as a grain of rice.
And as long as the Mi Li and Silver Moon fleets stifle the first wave of the enemy's offensive, then they can complete the encirclement of the enemy.
Humanity currently has three fleets in the Sophie system: Andromeda, Ursa Major, and Ursa Minor.
Among them, the two fleets of Ursa and Ursa cooperated with the Silver Moon Fleet and the Blue Star People's Sword of Vengeance Fleet to complete the encirclement of the enemy.
The Andromeda fleet headed straight for the enemy's northern leap.
Once the tactics are completed, it means that the enemy's more than 400 warships will become the turtle in the urn - when the time comes, whether to open their mouths to encircle the point and send reinforcements, or to stabilize the front first, then the initiative will be completely in the hands of the coalition forces.
"Hmm." Aishara also followed Yang Wenzhi's example and stood straight, with her hands behind her back.
It's just that compared to the relaxation of Yang Wenzhi's hands, her hands clenched into fists nervously.
After all, this is the first battle of the Silver Moon Fleet! And it was the first battle against the Upper Legion!
In the past, when she observed the review in the human command center, she always felt that the human fleet fighting the legion's fleet was like bullying a rookie...... It gave her a feeling of "I can do it too" - of course, this feeling is premised on the fact that her combat ships have been adapted to human automatic control.
In a sense, the Silvermoon Fleet can do all the combined attacks of the human fleet...... Seventy or eighty percent!
The reason why it is not 100% is because her fleet is automated through the replacement of human robots in key parts, which is mechanical synchronization, not pure electronic synchronization like humans.
And mechanical synchronization ...... There will always be errors, that's inevitable.
But faith is faith, and it is time to fire the first shot...... But her heart grew more and more worried.
In case of...... What went wrong?
And when the word "mistake" rose in her mind, she could no longer suppress it and began to float around in her head, so much so that her body began to tremble slightly.
At this moment, she only felt a large warm hand quietly clenching her fist.
She turned her head and saw Yang Wenzhi throwing a gentle smile at her.
"Have absolute confidence in our strength."
Perhaps infected by Yang Wenzhi's confidence, Aisara nodded heavily: "I believe it!" ”
Yang Wenzhi withdrew his gaze from Aisara's face, put his hands behind his back again, and looked at the number in the lower left corner, his brows furrowed slightly, and his voice was serious and majestic.
"This is the former enemy headquarters, all the warships of the Silver Moon Fleet, and they will be pre-targeted and locked in thirty seconds."
Aishara inhaled instantly: "Execute!" ”
"Grains 1 to 50, firing at target number in thirty seconds."
With Yang Wenzhi's voice, the image on the big screen changed, and the top of the fifty battleships at the front of the enemy's battleship showed the mark locked by rice grains at the same time.
- After 10 minutes, Rice Grains will hit the enemy at maximum speed.
And at that time, it was also the best time for the Silvermoon Fleet to fire.
