After finishing his speech and announcing the disbandment, Lin Fan looked at Emma in the audience.

To be honest, with Emma's good looks and figure, even if you don't look for it deliberately, you will notice it casually when you look around.

However, Emma obviously had her own pride. When the disbandment was announced, she immediately turned around and left to report to the Fleet Staff Headquarters.

For her, she will rely on her own efforts and strength to finally come to Lin Fan's side. Before that, she will not force herself to Lin Fan's side!

"Still as arrogant as ever!"

Lin Fan looked at Emma who turned around and left, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Commander, we are going to observe the testing of new warships."

"Well, let's go!"

A new type of warship, this is a new generation of warship designed by the Federation using jump engines, nuclear fusion energy and energy shields. The finalized name is the Snow Leopard-class battle cruiser.

Based on the application of new technologies, the Federation's future battleships will be unified (excluding aircraft carriers), and there will no longer be frigates, destroyers, and cruisers.

After all, with the jump engine, nuclear fusion energy, and even energy shield, the fleet only needs a comprehensive warship.

Therefore, the Snow Leopard-class battlecruiser was born. This is a new type of battlecruiser that integrates attack, defense and speed. In every aspect, it far exceeds all previous ship types!

Lin Fan and Liang Xue took the Uranus to the test airspace, and entered the scientific research ship that was already waiting here through the transportation boat.

"Lin Fan, are you here?"

"Well, I just finished the matter of the new recruits and came over immediately."

"Lao Bai, let's start!"

"Hmph, you don't need to tell me!"

Ever since Liang Xingchen directly cut off Bai Zixuan's communication last time, now when he sees Liang Xingchen, he is filled with anger!

"Activate the experimental ship's energy shield!"

"It's the energy shield that has been activated!"

Lin Fan looked at the screen and could vaguely see a light blue force field appearing outside the Snow Leopard-class battlecruiser, covering the entire battleship.

"Check the fusion energy output and the maintenance of the energy shield"

"Report, the nuclear fusion energy output is stable, and shield maintenance only takes up 2% of the maximum energy output!"

"Very good, let's move on to the next item, Lin Fan, I leave it to you!"

"OK!"

This is why Lin Fan specially brought the Uranus here. Since he wanted to test it, he used one of the strongest battleships in the Federation!

"Uranos, my name is Lin Fan, and I now order the main gun to fire three rounds at the experimental ship!"

"Ouranos understands! The target has been locked and is firing!"

The Ouranos, which was 3 million kilometers away from the experimental ship, began to gather energy on the main gun, and then an energy projectile was shot out and flew towards the experimental ship. Then the second and third rounds were fired continuously within a few seconds!

"Report, the three consecutive shots have been completed! It is expected to hit the target in 7 seconds!"

"Okay, stay on standby!"

"yes!"

A few seconds later, the first energy bomb slammed into the experimental ship, but was completely blocked by the light blue shield and did not cause any damage! Then, the second and third rounds also arrived one after another.

"Report, the shield completion rate dropped to 92%, 84%, and 76%!"

"Okay, check the shield recharge speed!"

"Understood! Direct 80% of the nuclear fusion energy output to the energy shield device and start recharging!"

"Report, the recharging speed is stable at one percent every five seconds!"

Why only use 80% of energy output

After all, the battleship itself also needs energy, the energy for firing the ship's guns, the energy for the battleship's engine, etc. You can't use 100% of the energy on the shield, can you

"Commander Liang, it seems that the expected results have been achieved!"

Lin Fan listened to the data report from the scientific research team, smiled with satisfaction, and said to Liang Xingchen who was full of excitement.

"Haha, yes, according to this data, when confronting the battleships of the Oaks Empire, it should be able to withstand at least 20 consecutive shots from the opponent's main guns! When the Snow Leopard class becomes a large army, even if it confronts Adams, I will not Worried.”

"Speaking of Adams, I think there may be changes!"

"How to say?"

"We learned before that the Ninth Prince is the most doting son of the Emperor of the Oaks Empire. What are the two choices the Emperor is most likely to make after his death?"

"Tell me!"

"One possibility is to directly execute Adams, or even execute the entire fleet to vent his anger! Then use other fleets to attack the Federation."

"There is a possibility. If this is the case, I can breathe a sigh of relief. What we need now is time!"

"Commander Liang, the other possibility is that we may not be able to relax. If it were me, I would still want Adams to die. I would not execute him directly. Instead, I would order him to lead the remaining army to advance without retreating, attack desperately, and let him die. On the war zone."

Liang Xingchen's expression changed after hearing Lin Fan's words.

That's right, they have to be executed anyway, why not let them attack desperately, die on the battlefield, and exert their final warm-up!

If so, it would be a bit troublesome. After all, an army that is not afraid of death is the most difficult to deal with when there is not much difference in weapons.

Take the tactics used by Lin Fan in the asteroid belt as an example. If Adams had been prepared to die and had not thought about going back, then he would not have chosen to retreat, but would have directly continued forward.

In this way, the outcome of the entire battle will be completely changed, and the Fourth Fleet will be completely defeated.

"Commander Liang, actually I don't think you need to worry too much. As far as I know, the Oaks Empire's communication methods are not much more advanced than those of the Federation. It will not be a short time until the news reaches the emperor's ears and then the order is issued to Adams. It can be done, but I estimate it will take at least 2 or 3 months to get results."

"That's what you said, but just in case, we need to prepare now!"

"Indeed, we cannot let them have the same opportunity to cross the asteroid belt as they did last time. At present, in terms of military strength, the opponent is still twice ours. If we want to defeat Adams' remnant army at the minimum cost, the battlefield must be on a small scale. Within the planetary belt.”

"Well, in this case, I will make arrangements to increase the monitoring of the asteroid belt!"

"good!"
