Arms of Orion, star system Horton.
As the military-industrial center of the Ox Empire, 30,000 warships are stationed here all year round.
Even though a series of bad news came from the front line, Joseph, as the commander of Horton's garrison, remained calm. After all, Horton's star road to the outside world was surprisingly narrow. Even if there were only 30,000 warships, he was still confident. With this first powerful pass in the Oaks Empire, we can block the million-strong army of the Kabate Empire.
At this moment, 30,000 warships formed a C-shaped front around the exit of the Star Road. Any warship emerging from the Star Road will be attacked by a full 30,000 warships from a 180-degree range.
Coupled with the fact that the Star Road is so narrow that only 200 warships can pass through it at the same time, you can imagine that 200 warships appear through the Star Road together, and then the surrounding 30,000 warships cover and shoot from all angles. Do you still have a way to survive
A few months ago, Leo defended the Sicilian Star Way with 800,000 warships. Of course, only 300,000 warships could fire at the same time, so it can also be understood as 300,000 defenders.
Sicilian's Star Path can pass through thousands of warships at the same time, but it was still beaten by Leo defenders in the early stage with a battle loss ratio of 1:9, which shows that the defenders have an advantage.
Joseph looked at the layout of the defense line on the flagship and nodded with satisfaction, with a proud look on his face.
"I want to see how the Kabat Empire breaks through this line of defense!"
"Commander Yoser, we just received a message from Aisa, the commander of the Fourth Guards Corps. They expect to arrive in 17 days!"
"I don't know what Mr. Ross is thinking. As long as I send the defenders from several surrounding star systems and gather 100,000 battleships for me, I can definitely stop Kabat's millions of troops. Why do I need to let the fourth guard The legions are here to help with the defense! They should be supporting the front line!"
Joseph looked unhappy. In the galaxies behind Horton, because they were closer to the imperial capital, they had a lot of troops stationed there, basically 10,000 to 20,000.
As long as the empire gathers the defenders of several galaxies and sends them to Horton, it can definitely block Kabat's army and prevent it from taking an inch forward.
The Fourth Guards Corps has 300,000 main warships, but they don't go to the front line and come to join in the fun. Isn't this a slap in the face
In fact, Joseph completely misunderstood Ross. Although the Leo defenders reported that there were only a few hundred shield battleships left in the Kabat Empire, but who knew if there were others.
No one dares to take this risk. If Holden is lost, the empire will be destroyed!
Therefore, the safest way is to let the Fourth Guards Corps and Joseph's 30,000 defenders join Horton!
Just when Joseph was complaining with an unhappy face, the combat readiness alarm in the battleship sounded!
Joseph was shocked and immediately looked at the tactical screen, but the tactical screen did not show any trace of enemy ships at the exit of Star Road.
"What's going on? There are no enemies, so why did the alarm sound?"
"Commander Joseph, it's not the Star Way, it's our rear that has a problem!"
As soon as he heard that something happened in the rear, Joseph immediately panicked. What was behind him? That's a group of warship manufacturing bases.
If something happens there, the empire will lose 70% of its warship productivity. This is no joke!
"Report immediately, what happened?"
"Commander Joseph, according to the report from the rear fortress, 20,000 warships appeared out of thin air and have launched an attack on us! According to database comparison, it is the latest warship of mankind!"
"What, humans? Impossible. Aren't humans trapped in Tianyuan Four? Moreover, Rao has assembled more than 100,000 warships, and has not received any news that it has been breached. Even if it was breached, it would not be possible to arrive so quickly. How many years have we been here?"
"Commander Joseph, two human fleets suddenly appeared out of thin air on both sides of our side, each with 20,000 ships, and they have already opened fire on us!"
The adjutant called out to Joseph eagerly!
But Joseph had no time to pay attention to him. Instead, he was running his brain at high speed, thinking of countermeasures!
What does it mean when a human fleet appears on the second side of our defense line? Your own fleet is now in a C shape, surrounding the exit of the Star Road. Aren't the human fleets appearing on both sides located behind your own wings
How can we face the enemy? Turn to face the enemy? Do not make jokes!
This requires turning 180 degrees, which takes at least 3 minutes, and after turning 90 degrees, it will turn sideways to face the opponent, which is the weakest position of the battleship!
Get rid of straight-line acceleration? What's even worse, if the two wings accelerate in a straight line, wouldn't that mean the two wings collide? Now it's a C-shaped defense line!
"Commander Joseph."
"what happened again?"
"The opponent. After scanning, the opponent is composed entirely of battlecruiser-level battleships."
"boom"
Joseph was immediately confused. What did his adjutant just say? Are all the opponent's 40,000 battleships at the battlecruiser level
The number is more than myself! Occupying an absolutely dominant position! Are they all battleships? Can this battle still be fought
"Commander Joseph."
"If there's anything else, can you finish it all at once?"
"When our warships fired back with their secondary guns, we found that all the opponent's warships had energy shields, and our attacks were completely ineffective."
"Bang"
Joseph fell directly to the ground.
All capital ship energy shields have numerical advantage and positional advantage.
At this moment, Joseph's mind was filled with these words, echoing over and over again.
"It's over!"
"Commander Joseph, what are we going to do now? If we don't have any countermeasures, we will be completely wiped out within ten minutes!"
The adjutant on the side was also extremely anxious.
"It's no longer possible. Order the aircraft carrier to release all fighter planes. The entire fleet turns to face the enemy. Let's fight to the death! Try to kill a few of the opponent's warships before being destroyed!"
"Commander Yoser!"
"Execute the order, and help me open the communication. I want to send the last communication to Lord Ross!"
"yes!"
Eight minutes later, despite the desperate efforts of Horton's defenders, they still could not escape the fate of being completely annihilated, and could not even cause any damage to the federal fleet.
This is the crushing of technology. If Horton's defenders have millions of warships, they can still fight it out. It's still unclear who will win!
But the actual situation is that there are only 30,000 warships. Facing 40,000 warships that can crush one's own technology, it is absolutely impossible to resist.
As for the released fighters, their attack on the battleship shield was not even as fast as the shield's recharging speed. In the end, they could only end up being gradually wiped out by the battleship's close-in defense cannon.
While taking down the defenders, Jiang Hai's second fleet also took down the rear fortress.
Then the three fleets rushed towards their next targets.
Jiang Hai pounced on the shipbuilding base group, while Liang Xingchen and Lin Fan dispersed their fleets, and then one squadron after another pounced on the resource star and the life planet respectively!
Three hours later, all resistance forces in the entire galaxy were cleared.
All planets and the shipbuilding base groups in space have been completely controlled.
