"How did you do it?"
Liang Xingchen looked at Lin Fan suspiciously.
There are millions of troops, and Holden is their important target in the middle of the war!
What made them give up
"We didn't do anything. We just continued to fool them, telling them that we needed to build a stronghold on the arm, encircling 15 star systems in the Oaks Empire, and as compensation, we would allow them to purchase energy shields from us in the future, and even Nuclear fusion device!”
"Is this okay?"
“No wonder”
After the two of them heard Lin Fan's words, one showed his original expression, while the other had a look of shock.
The one who looked shocked was naturally Jiang Hai. He didn't know the secret mission Lin Fan carried out last time in Kabat, so he was surprised!
Why did Kabat get it done after just saying this? And when did you contact the Kabat Empire
Seeing Jiang Hai's confused expression, Liang Xingchen had no choice but to turn to him and briefly explain Lin Fan's previous mission.
"So that's it, does that mean you're lying to them again?"
After listening to Liang Xingchen's explanation, Jiang Hai showed a look of understanding.
"What nonsense are you talking about! How can you call it a lie? The Federation is really planning to sell it to them."
"No way, how can such a powerful thing be sold to other civilizations casually?"
Jiang Hai was shocked by Lin Fan's words. If this was sold to the Kabat Empire in large quantities, they would have more warships than us in the future, and their warships would be no worse than ours. How could we still have fun
Could it be that the Federation is just trying to make some money regardless of the overall situation
Speaking of which, Jiang Hai has been with Liang Xingchen for more than ten years. Although he is the leader in fighting, on the other hand, to be honest, Lin Fan can only think that he is born slow!
"Commander Jiang, what we sell to them naturally has a backdoor. If they use these things to attack us, we only need to give an order and they will all be finished! Not only can they obtain a large amount of resources from Kabat, but also If you can gradually control their warships, why not?"
"Can you still do this?"
Jiang Hai's eyes widened, so vicious
Liang Xingchen looked at Jiang Hai and smiled bitterly. This lieutenant who had been with him for more than ten years was good at everything, but he was too decent and didn't understand the conspiracy at all.
It can’t be said that he doesn’t understand it at all. Jiang Hai is still very good at all kinds of cunning methods in war, but outside of war, he is very good at it.
"Okay, let's continue. Is the time when the Fourth Army of the Oaks Guards will arrive in Horton confirmed?"
Liang Xingchen directly interrupted the topic and continued to ask.
"Well, the navigation speed within the Star Path is a fixed three times the speed of light.
We had previously obtained the location of the Fourth Guards Corps from Lancer, and based on the time of Witte's fall and strategic inference, we could determine that more than 90% of them would turn around and head for Horton.
The premise is that the people in the Oaks Empire are not stupid. Of course, even if it does not turn around, it doesn't matter to us. After all, he is still several years away from Tianyuan Four.
Based on all the intelligence, we set off in a week and can capture Horton before it arrives.
The time error will not exceed three months, which means that after we capture Horton, as long as all predictions are correct, within 1-3 months, the Fourth Guards Corps will appear in Horton through the Star Road . "
"Okay, I'm fine!"
"I don't have any problem either!"
"Okay, let's discuss Holden's strategy in detail."
—
A week later, the newly reorganized Federation Third Fleet arrived at Tianyuan Four.
Lin Fan also met his new commander Quint Klein for the first time. The two sides did not have too many polite words. After quickly completing the procedures for handing over the defense line, they went back to make arrangements.
Three hours later, the First, Second and Fourth Fleets had completely withdrawn from the defense line and formed arrays behind the defense line.
"Commander, all fleets are ready and ready to go at any time!"
"Okay, set a one-minute countdown and distribute it to all battleships."
"clear!"
A minute later, the void shrank suddenly, and the three fleets and 60,000 warships disappeared in an instant.
Tianyuan IV is 21 light years away from Horton. It takes about 13 days to reach it through the jump engine.
At this moment, the Fourth Guards Corps of the Oaks Empire has also approached Holden.
"Commander Aisa, there is an urgent battle report coming from the front!"
In Aisa's flagship, the adjutant ran up to Aisa with a copy of the latest communication, a look of panic on his face!
"Read quickly!"
"Two months ago, Leo was attacked from both sides by Sicily and Witte. The Kabat Empire dispatched a total of 3 million warships and more than 8,000 shielded warships. Leo fell under the attack."
"At the same time, according to the information sent by Commander Leo at the last moment, Leo defended 1.6 million warships, and all the soldiers fought until the last moment. Kabate's army also suffered heavy losses. The estimated casualties on the warships are between 1.5 and 1.6 million. , at the same time, 7,800 of the 8,200 shielded warships were destroyed by the Leo defenders."
Aisa was stunned for a moment after hearing the news.
Even Leo was lost. There were originally 8 Guards Legions, but now only his 4th Legion and Russell's 7th and 8th Legions were left. A touch of sadness suddenly surged into Isa's heart.
“Adjutant, how far are we from Holden?”
"There are still 30 days to go, Commander Aisa!"
"Okay, when we get to Horton, we'll take care of Kabate's raid fleet first and avenge the frontline soldiers!"
"yes!"
—
More than ten days later, the Oaks Empire, the star system Horton.
This is the gateway to the inner circle of the Orx Empire, and one of the three star systems that can connect to the outer circle.
In Horton, there are five star roads, one of which connects the outer territory of the Oaks Empire, and the other four connect the four star systems of the inner territory, which can be said to extend in all directions.
Moreover, Horton is known as the most powerful pass in the Oaks Empire, because its star road to the outside world is narrower than Vitley, and can only pass 200 warships at the same time.
It can be said that as long as there are tens of thousands of warships guarding this star road, even a million fleets may not be able to break in. It is simply that one man is in charge and no one can open it!
Moreover, Horton is most famous for its numerous resource stars. There is a natural life planet here and a total of 42 resource stars!
Not only that, there are also three large-scale asteroid belts in Horton, whose overall size is at least 30 times the asteroid belt in the solar system.
Therefore, the largest shipbuilding base in the Oaks Empire is built here, with an annual output of 50,000 warships. There is no need to transport raw materials from other star systems. All needs can be solved in Horton. Among its resources The richness is evident.
However, the war readiness alarm, which had not sounded for hundreds of years, suddenly sounded on this day!
"Woo. Wu..."
