The slag star is not large, with a radius of less than three thousand kilometers.
After two hundred years of unrestrained crazy mining, the slag star was almost hollowed out, just like a huge hornet's nest. Because it was abandoned before the resources were completely exhausted, no one knew the internal structure of the slag star, and no one knew how many mines led to the star core. Only one thing is certain, there are many mines on the Slag Star that are large enough to allow small warships like the Ryukage to pass through.
At the beginning, in order to obtain valuable resources, miners used giant drilling equipment to drill many mines on the slag star that directly lead to the star core, and as the speed of resource mining accelerates, there are more and more such mines. Because the mineral deposits are unevenly distributed, the mine caves are not straight down, but meandering. After digging out the minerals in the veins, these mines are connected to each other, forming a huge underground labyrinth.
However, these mines also played a certain protective role.
The main thing is that during the mining process, for safety reasons, the miners strengthened the mine to withstand the huge pressure inside the planet. Otherwise, the structural defects produced by these mine caves all over the interior of the slag star would have caused the slag collapse a long time ago.
Of course, these mines are huge enough to allow Liusha to enter and exit at will.
After walking through the mine for more than ten minutes, the "Xinghai" slowed down.
This time, Yang Yi didn't let the ten Liushade ships move together, but separately searched for the mines that entered the slag star, and then met inside the slag star. Of course, Yang Yi also clearly told the female warriors and officers on the other Yukage ships that if the situation was different from what he expected, they would flee separately.
In the command module, a huge internal structure diagram of the planet is gradually improving.
When entering the slag star, ten liuying ships, including the "Xinghai", released small detection equipment, mainly to figure out the internal structure of the slag star. In any case, it takes a huge space to settle the twenty legions and make the twenty legions fight. Even if Yang Yi's judgment is correct, the Lei Ling tribe's fleet will build a forward base on the Slag Star upon arrival, and will also be stationed on the ground instead of going deep into the Slag Star. The reason is simple. The main value of this forward base is to support the fleet, and there are many large warships in the Lei Ling tribe's fleet that cannot enter the interior of the Slag Star, so the base can only be built on the surface of the planet.
In fact, this is the most critical prerequisite for Yang Yi's battle plan.
To put it simply, as long as the Lei Ling Clan Corps accompanying the fleet moves into the Slag Star, the battle plan, or vision, made by Yang Yi can become a reality.
If the Lei Ling Clan Legion had not stationed in the Slag Star, then Yang Yi's idea was just an idea.
This is, as long as Yang Yi and the others are found hiding in the slag star, Wan Luo Warlord will definitely destroy the slag star, and even the entire Zag galaxy.
As for building a forward base on the Slag Star, it is obviously impossible.
Of course, as long as it is not discovered by the Lei Ling Clan fleet, as long as Wanluo Battle Emperor considers the Slag Star to be valuable, as long as the forward base is built here, everything is easy to say.
In any case, Wan Luo Battle Emperor obviously cannot order the Lei Ling clan's legion to be eliminated.
That's why Yang Yi decided to hide it first, and hide it in the slag star. When the Lei Ling tribe fleet arrives and send legions to build an advance base on the slag star, the twenty legions brought by Yang Yi will be useful. At that time, when fighting against the Lei Ling Clan Legion, everyone is on the Slag Star. No matter how fierce the Wanluo War Emperor is, it is impossible to order the destruction of the Slag Star. He will only use all his power to destroy the enemies on the Slag Star. Less time. Because the rear is unstable and there is no reliable forward base, even if the battleship is difficult to use, Wan Luo Warlord may not send the fleet away. Besides, Yang Yi has ten Liuying Ships in his hand, which can make Wanluo Warlord throw a rat avoidance weapon. To put it simply, when the ground army is threatened, the King Wanluo will inevitably leave the fleet behind. Only after eliminating Yang Yi and the others, or withdrawing the legions that had been thrown into the Slag Star, could King Wanluo send his fleet to other battlefields.
Obviously, as long as Yang Yi and the others entangled the Lei Ling clan's army, as long as they persisted, they could achieve the purpose of containing the Lei Ling clan's fleet.
Of course, the prerequisite for all this is that Wanluo Battle Emperor decided to build an advance base on the Slag Star.
In this regard, Yang Yi was not very worried.
This is, in the vicinity of this area, at least several tens of light-years away, the Zigga Galaxy is the only land without an owner, and the Slag Star is notorious.
If you want to hide a huge fleet near here, the Zag Galaxy is the most ideal choice.
Although there are ways to hide a fleet with Lei Ling's advanced technology, such as allowing the fleet to stay in a space channel that can be maintained for a long time, if you want to prepare the fleet for battle and complete other pre-war preparations, A forward base must be set up. Simply put, the fleet must be returned to space, and a place where the fleet can be hidden is also needed, preferably a star system that no one cares about.
There is no doubt that the Zag Galaxy is the most ideal choice.
In fact, it was precisely with this in mind that Yang Yi and the others came to the Zag galaxy through space leaping, instead of going to nearby star systems.
Of course, others think so too.
From another perspective, if Yang Yi is in charge of the Lei Ling Clan fleet, he will also choose to camp in the Zag galaxy.
In addition, that small reconnaissance ship can also prove Yang Yi's judgment. If the Zag galaxy is not important, if there is no plan to be stationed here, King Wanluo has no reason to send a small reconnaissance ship here on standby. As for why there was only one and no more small reconnaissance ships were sent over, perhaps Wanluo Battle Emperor was too confident, or it might have something to do with him not knowing the situation, that is, not knowing Yang Yi's whereabouts. You must know that if the signal from the small reconnaissance ship was not discovered in time, and there was no Captain Otis, the female warrior guard with a super space fighter, Yang Yi and the others had been discovered, and the reconnaissance ship would definitely be able to send the signal in time.
Besides, in the entire Southern Alpha Galaxy, apart from Yang Yi, who would take the initiative to attack the reconnaissance ship of the Lei Ling clan
Now is the time of war, and the Lei Ling clan is the most powerful and top civilization of the Galactic Alliance, and it is impossible for small reconnaissance ships to operate independently from the fleet. Not to mention the warships of other civilizations, even the bold pirates, after encountering the small reconnaissance ships of the Lei Ling clan, they will avoid them. Taking the initiative to attack the Lei Ling clan's battleship is tantamount to looking for death. Even if you can escape by chance, you will definitely not live long.
What really made Yang Yi uncertain was actually another matter.
This is whether Wan Luo Battle Emperor will build the advance base on the Slag Star.
As mentioned earlier, the main purpose of building forward bases is to provide support to the fleet. After all, fleet operations require a lot of materials and cannot be carried by combat ships. It is tens of thousands of light-years away from the jurisdiction of the Leiling Clan. Even if the Leiling Clan has enough transport spacecraft, it cannot guarantee to provide all the resources for the fleet. The safest way is to establish a base in the front to stock up the materials needed for fleet operations.
In addition, the forward base can also serve as a military fortress, that is, a support point for the fleet.
The problem is that if it only supports fleet operations, it is entirely possible that the forward base will be located in outer space, which is a space fortress.
Don't forget, most battleships do not have the ability to fly in the atmosphere.
Although there are not many asteroids and other celestial bodies in the Zag Galaxy, and the Slag Star does not have satellites, with the technical strength of the Lei Ling clan, it is not difficult to piece together a space fortress with warships. If the plan had already been made, then Wan Luo Battle Emperor would be prepared. Space fortresses made up of battleships or spaceships will not be very strong and have limited functions, but they will be enough to support fleet operations in a short period of time.
So, is it a ground base or a space fortress
Yang Yi could not guess, but thought of the key factors that determine this issue.
This is, Wanluo Battle Emperor will decide what kind of advance base to build based on the battlefield situation, to be precise, the battle that the Leiling tribe fleet is going to conduct.
Simply put, if it is just a battle and there is no suspense, then Wanluo Battle Emperor obviously has no reason to do a lot of work. A small space fortress that can supply and maintain warships is enough. Even if you want to build a forward base, it is not here, but in a certain star system in the North Fourth District, or even a home galaxy. After all, after annihilating the Star Weaver Clan Corps, the Lei Ling Clan fleet commanded by the Wanluo War Emperor will be the first to reach the North Fourth District and the only reinforcement that can save the Human Federation. If the situation is exactly the opposite, the Lei Ling Clan fleet is facing a fierce battle with uncertain results, and it may last for a long time. What it needs is a fully functional forward base, and in the Zag galaxy, there is only Such a base can be built on the Slag Star.
Obviously, Yang Yi definitely doesn't want to fight an insecure battle.
For this reason, after making a decision to persuade Shen Chengwen and Otis and others, Yang Yi contacted the Queen of Star Soul, to be precise, sent the situation on their side, and urged the Queen of Star Soul to launch one in the near future. Offensive, showing the combat effectiveness of the Star Weaver Clan Corps.
If Wanluo Battle Emperor thought that the Star Weaver Clan army led by the Star Soul Queen was strong enough to be defeated in one fell swoop, then he would definitely make a long-term plan.
Of course, Yang Yi didn't know what the outcome would be.
In the past, Yang Yi always believed that a commander actually made a plan, and then let the ministry go down to implement the plan, and it was very easy to command the army.
Obviously, Yang Yi would never think so again.
Making a plan is still a trivial matter, and the key is to judge before the war. What makes Yang Yi feel even more tormented is that even if he has formulated a perfect plan, whether it can be transformed into the fruit of victory in the end is not for him to decide, it depends on the actions of the enemy. In other words, he cannot grasp the direction of the battle.
This kind of uncontrollable situation can be said to be a resigned situation, making Yang Yi very mad, but helpless.
Of course, this was the first time he fought as a commander. It was normal to feel helpless, at a loss, and worried.
