In accordance with Yang Yi's request, Yuyang formulated a combat plan. However, due to time constraints, the content of this plan is not very detailed. In order to reduce the occurrence of deficiencies in the command link and cause problems in combat operations, Yuyang can only make a fuss about the task arrangement. In this regard, Yang Yi is also helpless, after all, commanding thousands of legions to fight is by no means a casual joke.
The main task is the Silicon Charm army commanded by the Dragon Queen, with a total of more than 8,000 legions.
However, before the Dragon God Empress appears on the stage, the Human Expeditionary Force must be responsible for clearing the obstacles on the marching route and creating conditions for the main offensive troops to enter the battle. Simply put, it is to pull out the strongholds near the target star system and clean up the Simei warships that have been hunting down on the periphery of the star system. If necessary, enter the star system to attack the enemy's stronghold and destroy the enemies near the main planets.
Obviously, only the human expeditionary force can perform this kind of raid mission, or to be precise, the main force in the expeditionary force.
In fact, the main force of the Human Expeditionary Army is already an absolute assistant, even surpassing the main force of the Star Weaver Clan. Quite simply, the officers and soldiers of the Human Expeditionary Army are all combat soldiers, while the officers and soldiers of the main force all have space fighters. Whether on the space battlefield or on the ground battlefield, these regiments are composed of combat troops and possess space fighters with superior combat effectiveness. It can even be said that the expeditionary force has been able to persist until now, to a large extent, because these main armies can always go into battle at critical moments, change the strength of the battlefield, stop the enemy's offensive, and even regain some lost ground through counterattacks.
It is a pity that the human expeditionary force is already insufficient, and the main force is even smaller.
At the beginning of the expedition, only 20 legions of the Human Expeditionary Force entered the Northern Alpha Galaxy, of which only two legions were considered the main force. Of course, strictly speaking, it was not the main force, because at that time these two corps were only equipped with enough small power converters, and all officers and soldiers were soldiers, and they were not equipped with space fighters. It's just that the other eighteen legions at that time didn't even have enough small power converters. Only the officers were soldiers, and the soldiers were all ordinary soldiers. So in terms of combat power, these two legions were considered the main force at the time. More importantly, these two legions were the first to obtain space fighters and were the first to have complete combat capabilities.
Since then, as Yujia began mass production of small primary energy converters and space fighters, more legions were armed. More importantly, in order to stabilize the front and defend the bridgehead of decisive value, after Yang Yi left, the other 180 legions of the Expeditionary Army also went to the Northern Alpha Galaxy. Although they did not catch up with the initial battles, all of these legions participated in the subsequent battles.
However, when Yang Yi returned, only ninety-four of the two hundred legions were armed. Even if you count the small original energy converters and space fighters that Yang Yi brought, only ninety-six legions have achieved complete combat capabilities. The other one hundred and four corps, let alone achieve complete combat power, probably only one-tenth of the total force is a high-ranking officer with a small power converter.
Obviously, compared to the vast battlefield, the strength of the Human Expeditionary Force is simply a drop in the bucket.
Fortunately, behind the Human Expeditionary Army, there are three thousand Star Weavers Legions, and a larger scale, up to tens of thousands of Silicon Charm Legions.
For Yang Yi, the Human Expeditionary Force is an elite force.
Although in the short term, Yang Yi could not solve the problem of the expeditionary force’s lack of weapons and equipment, especially the small primary energy converters and space fighters, as long as they are used reasonably, the 96 legions with complete combat capabilities can do a lot, because This is a total of 960,000 soldiers.
Of course, how to use it reasonably is another issue.
It is precisely because of the limitation of military strength that the human expeditionary force cannot act as the main force. In fact, this is also the key to Yang Yi's support for the Queen of Dragon God. To put it more seriously, relying on the strength of the Human Expeditionary Force, even if the 3,000 legions of the Star Weavers are counted, they can only defend the current star system at most, and they can barely maintain it. Although Yang Yi is here, he can stabilize the battle line, but it is definitely very disadvantageous to consume with the enemy. Don't forget, after the route was cut off, Yang Yi could no longer get reinforcements from the rear. There will always be casualties in battle, but the enemy can get a steady stream of supplements. In a war of attrition, Yang Yi will soon lose all his chips.
However, consumption is definitely unavoidable.
For this reason, Yang Yi can only reuse the Dragon God Queen, and reuse the Silicon Charm Legion that is loyal to the Dragon Queen.
It can be said that Yang Yi has no other choice at all.
Yuyang and others are not stupid. Although Yang Yi did not explicitly mention this, when Yang Yi repeatedly emphasized the importance of the Dragon God Empress and the Simei Army, Yuyang had already thought of this and knew that Yang Yi was so. It is also compelling to do it, in order to reduce the casualties of the human expeditionary army and the Star Weavers, to hold on for a little longer, and to allow the officers and soldiers to return to their relatives someday in the future.
However, it is obviously impossible for the Silicon Charm Army under the Dragon God Empress to carry the heavy burden.
It was exactly the same that Yuyang proposed that the main force of the Human Expeditionary Army act as the vanguard to clear the obstacles on the way forward for the main force, and Yang Yi agreed. In addition, the Star Weaver Army will launch feint attacks on other origins at the same time to attract and contain the enemy's forces, and if necessary, prevent the enemy from adding troops to the battlefield. Although Yuyang felt that some troops should be drawn from the Human Expeditionary Army and the Star Weaver Army to form a reserve team in order to cope with unexpected situations, but Yang Yi believes that this is unnecessary, and the force is already insufficient. Yuyang There is no persistence. The point is that Yang Yi's purpose of launching this counterattack is not to capture that star system.
According to Yang Yi's deployment, the purpose of this counterattack was to inflict heavy damage on the enemy, do our utmost to kill the enemy and eliminate the enemy's vital forces, so as to deter the enemy from launching new attacks in the near future. Simply put, this counterattack prevented the enemy from launching a general attack immediately.
It can also be said that Yang Yi's purpose is to buy time.
Although in the long run, dragging down the human expeditionary force is extremely disadvantageous, in the short term, Yang Yi still needs enough time to adjust and deploy.
To put it bluntly, the current battlefield situation is a deadly game for the human expeditionary force.
Because the various star systems are separated by the enemy, the forces are severely dispersed, so as long as the enemy launches an offensive again, the scattered legions are likely to be annihilated. Although it is mainly the Star Weaver Army, to Yang Yi, the importance of the Star Weaver Army is still higher than that of the Human Expeditionary Army. It is not that the Star Weaver Clan's combat effectiveness is stronger, but the survival of the Star Weaver Clan will determine the position of the Star Weaver Clan.
Regarding this issue, Yang Yi made it very clear.
In this way, before launching a full-scale counterattack, the loopholes in the line of defense must be filled and the star system divided by the enemy must be connected. It will take enough time and it must be ensured that the enemy cannot launch a new attack during this period. That is to grasp the initiative on the battlefield.
In fact, this is also the main reason why Yang Yi advocates launching a counterattack against the star system heavily guarded by the enemy.
Only through such a counterattack, through massive destruction of the enemy’s vigorous force and annihilation of the enemy’s legion, can the enemy lose the force necessary to launch an offensive, and it can severely damage the enemy’s morale and fighting spirit, and even force the enemy to spend a lot of time adjusting and deploying. .
The goal is very clear, but in Yuyang's view, it is very difficult to achieve this goal.
The key is not whether the Human Expeditionary Force can complete the mission, but whether the Silicon Charm Corps, which acts as the main force, can complete the mission within a limited time.
Quite simply, the enemy will not be passively beaten. After being attacked, he will definitely rise up to resist.
Because of the limited military strength, even if the Star Weaver Legion is on the periphery, the human expeditionary force is responsible for cover, and there is not much time left for the main attacking force. Therefore, can the counterattack task be completed quickly to achieve the purpose of counterattack, and then the army will be put into battle in time Withdrawal is the key.
Obviously, this is also the biggest problem.
In Yuyang’s words, if the human expeditionary force is acting as the main force, he will not have the slightest worry, because even if it is not the main force army, it has enough combat power to fight with higher efficiency and can use shorter ones. Time to complete the task. In addition, the human expeditionary force does not have much strength, because it can guarantee speed when entering and withdrawing from the battle, and the requirements for transportation power are not too high. Even if it encounters trouble, it can quickly withdraw to avoid Entangling with the enemy will not evolve into a protracted war of attrition. The problem is that the main force is the Silicon Magic Army, and the combat efficiency of the Silicon Magic Army is obviously far inferior to that of the Human Expeditionary Force. It takes more time to unfold when entering the battle, and it takes more time to withdraw, and more transportation power is needed. Besides, it is absolutely a disaster if there is a problem in the command link when commanding thousands of Simei Legions at the same time. What made Yuyang feel even more big was that Yang Yi didn't give him enough time, and he couldn't make the battle plan more detailed. In Yuyang's view, there is no detailed combat plan, not even a combat plan. It is strange that more than 8,000 Silicon Magic Army groups have no problems.
Yang Yi also knew what Yuyang was worried about, but he didn't give Yuyang more time.
It's not that he doesn't pay attention to these issues, but that he doesn't have more time.
If Yang Yi was only worried before this, then when the scouts led by Shen Chengwen brought back the warlord, he was not just worried.
This is, the fact that Yang Yi came to the Northern Alpha Galaxy has spread, and it has attracted the attention of the ghost king.
According to the hapless warlord's account, the ghost king of ghosts is already adjusting the deployment of troops, and all signs indicate that the total attack time has been advanced. It's just that that guy is just a war king, he has never seen the ghost king of ghosts, and he is not qualified to participate in the formulation of battle plans. All he knew were rumors, but it was enough for Yang Yi to make a judgment that his arrival had forced the Ghost King to launch a general attack in advance.
Now, it's up to who can attack first.
