Chapter 475 The best of the best
Time goes back to 15 minutes ago.
In the wormhole area of the solar system, the 15 warships arranged by Gustav were in a semi-surrounding situation, bringing the wormhole into the attack range.
Gemini doesn't have Nie Yun's sky-defying industrial manufacturing capabilities. If they want to build a defensive fortress like the one on Earth, they must at least dispatch several industrial motherships, use a large number of engineering robots, and consume a lot of resources.
The pioneering corps of the Proxima Galaxy is just a second-line fleet. The main strategic goal is to occupy the Proxima Galaxy and eliminate hostile forces in the territory, rather than building infrastructure.
Although it is not impossible to build a simple temporary fortress, but to spend so much effort to build a fortress for the sake of a few enemy ships in the solar system, I am afraid that the application will be thrown back directly by the military department as soon as the application is made, and there may be serious doubts. Commander's IQ.
On the other hand, no one thought at all that the enemies in the solar system would be so bold as to invade the Proxima Galaxy on their own initiative.
If this happens, then the offensive and defensive positions will be changed. This time, Gemini will occupy the geographical advantage. When all things are united, I am afraid that they will need to invest at least three times as many troops as their own to tear apart the defender's fleet defense line.
But based on the current disparity in military strength between the two sides, what is the difference between this and courting death?
Even the wormhole defense line composed of 15 warships, Gustav believed that some combat power was excessive.
If it weren't for the fact that in the previous "Second Wormhole Battle", the Haizu fleet was covered by a sword fairy mecha, and a small aircraft carrier was killed off guard, otherwise the defensive forces arranged by Gustav Maybe only half of what it is now.
This incident also reminded the Sea Clan fleet that although the other party is unlikely to launch a large-scale raid, the possibility of small-scale harassment still exists.
Therefore, the defensive formation formed by these warships was quite satisfactory, and they did not relax their vigilance because of the weakness of the opponent.
And at this moment, inside the flagship bridge of this fleet, the fleet commander was looking at a confidential military order in confusion.
"The line of defense retreats?"
This is a secret order issued by Gustav himself, and the order requires his fleet to retreat millions of kilometers to rearrange the line of defense.
You must know that their current defense line is stuck at the critical point of the longest range. If they retreat a million kilometers, how can they defend the wormhole?
"This order... why is it a little strange?" The fleet adjutant also felt that his IQ was not enough. "Sir, didn't His Excellency Gustav mention the strategic intention of doing this?"
The commander was silent for a while, but still shook his head and said nothing.
In fact, Gustav's strategic intentions were indeed mentioned in the back of this order, which is... "Lead the snake out of the hole"!
Just a brief explanation, the experienced commander understood that Gustav wanted to lure everything into one and would take the initiative to attack.
But what puzzled him was that they were not fools when all things were united for a while. With such a huge disparity in military strength, even if there was no wormhole location, they would have no chance of winning in a frontal battle. How could they be fooled in this situation?
But... maybe His Excellency Gustav still has a backhand to seduce the other party?
"Anyway, let the fleet retreat to the line of defense first, and wait for follow-up instructions!" The commander finally ordered.
After thinking for a while, he ordered again: "Your Excellency Gustav made a special statement, don't let the news out, it's only known to our fleet..."
The adjutant immediately understood what the commander meant when he heard the words.
This order is obviously a secret order issued by Gustav in his own name. I am afraid that the strategic intention in it is still a secret. The reason for doing so carefully must be to guard against the lurker inside the fleet.
It seems that His Excellency Gustav is going to make a big move...
"Yes! Order the fleet to immediately retreat a million kilometers and rearrange the defensive formation!" The adjutant stood at attention and said loudly.
With the release of the order, the wormhole defense fleet began to slowly turn around and leave the wormhole.
However, just when the fleet completed its turn and the wormhole just left the range of the fleet, a sudden change occurred!
Just behind the fleet, the familiar vortex suddenly appeared, and then a touch of silver slowly protruded from the void. The slightly sharp prow was like a sharp sword, spanning a distance of several light years, and ruthlessly inserted into the Proxima Galaxy...
"Wormhole crossing reaction! It's... an enemy ship!"
Inside the flagship, the radar soldiers looked at the eye-catching red alert and shouted in panic.
"What? At this time?!" The commander suddenly stood up from his chair with a look of shock on his face.
How could there be such a coincidence? !
I just ordered a retreat on my side, and the other side directly launched a surprise attack?The timing is so accurate!
Our own fleet is now facing the enemy with its back, and most of its firepower cannot be used, let alone out of range.
But if you turn around and go back to block, it will take at least 5 minutes to go back and forth!
5 minutes is not long, but it is enough for the opponent to gain a foothold through several warships.
What made the commander's heart tremble even more was that the opponent obviously knew that his side would take the initiative to retreat, so he had been waiting for this moment!
Is it because another leak occurred within our own side, or is the current situation already within the plan of "leading the snake out of the hole" by His Excellency Gustav?
"Sir! What should we do now?" the adjutant asked anxiously.
No rush!Didn't you see the whole battleship over there with almost all beards and tails appearing?
The longer the time is delayed, the stronger the enemy they will face, and they must make a decision as soon as possible.
The fleet commander didn't know this truth, he had already begun to weigh the pros and cons in his mind.
Now there are only two roads before the defensive fleet.
Or continue to retreat, the total number of troops in the solar system will be so many after the reunification of all things, even if it is clear that the chariots and horses are fighting each other, their fleet still has the advantage in strength.
What's more, there are hundreds of warships behind me as backup, even if I avoid the enemy's edge and wait for the army behind to press up, I can directly drown the invading enemy!
This method is better than being safe, and one's own side is invincible no matter what!
It's just that the experienced commander judged intuitively that the development of the situation might not be so smooth.
At least judging from the previous battles, the people who return everything to one meeting are definitely not stupid. Every step and every move made Gemini quite passive, and even suffered a lot of losses. So why did they suddenly make a foolish move this time? ?
Could it be that they can't see the enemy's situation in the neighboring galaxy this time?
To put it bluntly, with such a huge gap in military strength between the two sides, no matter how many troops they invest in, they will definitely be destroyed in the end!
Then why did they choose such a move to die?Will there be a backup?Could that strange secret order also be the handwriting of All Things Returning to One?
If I choose this path, will I fall into the hands of the enemy?
Then the second way is undoubtedly to turn around and block the opponent immediately!
At this point, no matter what the other party's intentions are, since they want to enter the Proxima Galaxy through the wormhole, it will never be wrong to destroy this intention by themselves!
His thoughts turned, the commander gritted his teeth, and immediately ordered loudly, "All ships turn around! Destroy the invaders!"
In the end, he chose the second path.
In any case, it is never wrong to check the details of the opponent first. Even if the situation is not right, it is not too late to choose to retreat. At least retreat after the battle, so that you can have an explanation to the chief above.
"In addition, immediately report the situation here to His Excellency Gustav and apply for tactical guidance!" He continued.
The trouble should end it!
This mess was caused by a secret order from Gustav, how did it end up...Of course you are responsible for it!
……
The exit of the wormhole.
The first battleship has completely escaped from the wormhole and appeared in the neighboring galaxy.
This battleship is silvery white, completely made of mechanical bug materials, about 600 meters long, roughly flat triangular in shape, with a sharper bow, shaped like a long sword with a narrow front and a wide rear.
There is no weapon system on the outside of the battleship, but a striking vortex logo is engraved in the middle of the hull.
The surface of the battleship has obviously been treated with a mirror, which looks radiant and exquisite like a work of art.
This is the "Houyi-class" frigate, an assault warship specially designed by Nie Yun for this operation.
You can tell from the name that this is a heavy-fire warship that focuses on attack power, and its attack weapon has one and only one thing, that is the main gun!
The "Houyi-class" frigate had just escaped from the wormhole, and the first thing it did was not to open the force field shield to establish a line of defense, but to directly enter the attack stance!
"Hum!" Huge energy quickly gathered, and a dazzling light spot suddenly appeared in the void in front of the bow.
"Zi!" Almost the next moment, an invisible wave slightly distorted the line of sight, and shot out violently!
At this time, the command from the opposite commander had just been issued.
Gemini obviously didn't expect the enemy's main guns to be charged for such a short period of time, and the range was far beyond their own. They were still turning at this time, and many warships had even just turned on their force field shields.
"Bang!" The invisible attack accurately hit the back waist of a frigate next to the flagship.
This frigate was obviously slow to react, the force field shield was just about to be activated, and the timing of this attack was also quite precise, just at the moment when the warship turned sideways and the attack surface was the largest!
"Boom!" A group of extremely dazzling explosion flames suddenly rose around, illuminating the faces of everyone in the flagship bridge.
"Yes... it's a gamma ray cannon!" someone shouted.
The flagship's detection equipment observed the characteristics of the attack, and quickly analyzed the type of the opponent's main gun.
The commander's face twitched again when he heard this.
Gamma ray cannon? !
This is a heavy gun that can only be equipped at the cruiser level in the Gemini battleship sequence. How did the battleship in front of me do it? !
Just when Gemini's fleet was shattered by this long-range attack, a large number of mechas began to pour out of the wormhole!After these mechs passed through the wormhole, they were still only attacking but not defending. Without further ado, two groups of twos and threes immediately rushed towards the battleship of Gemini, with an astonishing momentum!
Painted in blue, with five long swords on the back, all high-level "Sword Immortal" mechas!
For this battle, Nie Yun made the best of it!
