Chapter 459: Encounter 2
When the main army on Li Shu's side received the news from the front, it was already 3 hours later. Time has dragged on for so long, and the timeliness is gone.
It's just that this is already the fastest news, the main legion and the decoy legion are a bit far away, almost 0.8 light years.
It can't be any closer, and any closer can be discovered. Fortunately, the news that came was more detailed, and there was a steady stream of news coming in the follow-up, which can be used as a judgment.
It is said that there is no one in the decoy fleet that has been separated, only intelligent life that has been separated. And the way of thinking and decision-making of intelligent beings is always a little different from that of normal people.
According to the information received one after another, Li Shu and others saw the coping methods of intelligent life. In these messages, there is even some data on enemy warships, especially the acceleration performance of the battleship.
However, it is said that when the fleets of the two sides discovered each other, the distance was less than 4.2 billion kilometers, and such a distance in the starry sky can really be said to be close at hand.
In fact, it was the decoy fleet that was the first to discover the other party at the beginning, and the technology of the Ocean Group was even better because it absorbed the technology of multiple empires. However, there are also masters and some unique reconnaissance immortal weapons on the enemy's side, but they are not too far behind, and the decoy fleet was soon discovered.
In short, when the decoy fleet discovered the other party, the bait fleet's more than 38 million warships were dragged out hundreds of millions of kilometers in the void. During the march of the fleet, it is necessary to separate.
Only in battle, in order to ensure the stability and rapidity of the signal, or for some tactical objective, will the fleets approach each other;
If the distance is too close, it is easy to cause gravitational collapse, which requires additional energy to be consumed, reducing concealment, and the gravitational force will be too large and easy to detect.
Therefore, the fleet of the Tianshui Empire was dragged out of 500 million kilometers, and the fleet was divided in the void in an orderly manner according to the queue.
In such a state, the distance between the two fleets' forwards is 4.2 billion kilometers, which is really nothing, and it is only a distance of eight queues.
And when they detect each other, both sides are unprepared, and their relative speed is as high as 0.68 times the speed of light!
At this point, the decoy fleet has been out of the chronotravel state and is only flying normally. so as not to cause alarm. And the enemy fleet is still accelerating, and the front is entering a state of time-travel in batches.
According to the direction of the two fleets, the routes of the two sides do not coincide, and they are 2.7 billion kilometers apart, which are two parallel lines that do not intersect.
If normal people were faced with this situation, they would basically choose to fight against a wave.
But intelligent beings can sometimes create 'tactics' – sometimes they can adapt to change, and it is also an excellent tactic.
When the target is discovered, all the ships of the decoy fleet fire a railgun in order, using the recoil of the railgun to provide lateral acceleration to the ship away from the enemy fleet, while the ship's engine continues to work.
Then, the fleet, which had not yet slowed down, was in such a state, and suddenly entered a state of super-space travel - without slowing down or turning around, but going straight to the goal.
By the time the enemy reacted and launched an attack, the decoy fleet had already gone straight to the 'Tongue Cluster'. This time, it's undisguised.
In fact, such a move by the decoy fleet seems reckless, but it is the most appropriate way to deal with it from the perspective of data.
The state of time travel is afraid of external interference, but the distance between the two sides is 2.7 billion kilometers, and even the speed of light takes two and a half hours, and even if a cultivator who is still in the Void Realm immediately teleports over, it will take more than ten minutes.
And at this time, the fleet has entered a state of time travel and is gone!
At this time, the enemy fleet was surprised, and everyone began to slow down and turn around. However, if a battleship wants to make a U-turn in the void, it must first slow down and then accelerate again, which is equivalent to twice the work.
Based on the current state of the battleship, considering the performance of the enemy's battleship, even with the assistance of masters and formations, the time will be delayed by at least seven or eight hours!
Obviously, it was too late to pursue the decoy fleet.
It is only possible to send signals out and let the rear organize more fleets to intercept.
For a moment, the two star clusters were in chaos.
However, he said that Li Shu had finished reading the news and took a deep breath, "Ten birds in the forest are not as good as one bird in hand, and the enemy's fleet is roughly estimated to be as much as 270 million." Just enough for us to swallow in one gulp.
The order was given to the decoy fleet not to charge directly, but to dodge in a detour and look for opportunities to attack in a big detour, causing panic and confusion to the enemy and attracting the enemy's attention.
The main fleet, set off at once! We must reach the position where the two sides have discovered each other. Time and space are still a bit chaotic here, and there is a good cover for our whereabouts. I believe that the enemy would never have imagined that we would still be here.
Upon arrival, immediately take advantage of the technological superiority of our warships and launch a pursuit of the enemy. ”
A projection screen appeared next to Wei Long, showing detailed data on the warships of both sides. Because of the dismantling of the 'useless' armor, life support system, etc., coupled with some technical transformations of the Ocean Group, although it is a transformation of an old spaceship, the overall power performance is not weak, but the acceleration performance is about 5.8% higher than that of the enemy warship.
The performance of enemy warships is calculated through a combination of intelligence work and previous decoy fleets.
Don't look at the performance difference of only 5.8%, but if you can take full advantage of these advantages, there is more time and space to accelerate, it is enough to form an absolute advantage.
Two days later, the main fleet arrived at the predetermined position, and sure enough, there was no detection equipment around, only the detectors left by the decoy fleet; after receiving the new news, the fleet immediately accelerated, and chased after the starry sky ahead. 2 billion warships were scattered to form a huge hunting net.
270 million warships, at least one-third of the number of reinforcements. If this fleet can be defeated, the impact on the campaign will be incalculable.
............
However, it was said that when a decisive battle broke out on the side of the Minghui Empire, Murong Shan, another military general of the Ocean Group, was leading the fleet to patrol the constellation of the Heavenly Society.
This time, the Tianyuan Star Civilization sent four fleets to the Celestial Constellation, namely:
of the Ocean Group, the commander Murong Shan, the deputy commander Tian Guiping, 8 million warships, and more than 4,000 cultivators;
ASEAN (except for the Ocean Group), commander Wu Fanghai, deputy commander Shu Bennan, 15 million warships, and more than 2,500 cultivators in the virtual realm;
of the Western League, commander Zhao Guoyin, deputy commander Chen Tianbao (formerly the commander of the Song Dynasty's Imperial Forest Army), 7.8 million warships, and more than 1,600 cultivators;
There is also the Xuanhuang Group, the commander Nangong Zhi, the deputy commander Shi Canghai (the former palace master of the Canglong Palace in Biyun Tian), 12 million warships, and more than 2,900 people in the virtual realm.
In addition, there is also a supernumerary fleet, the intelligent life 'Flying Tiger', leading 2 billion unmanned warships, roaming in the void, and only Murong Shan can contact this fleet.
All the fleets of the Tianyuan Star Civilization need to be at the disposal of Murong Mountain. Although Wu Fanghai is Zhang Hao's 'father-in-law', it is only in the past. Militarily, Murong Shan is better.
As for Zhuge Binghe's people, except for a few people who came to Murong Mountain's side as staff officers, most of them were disarmed—they couldn't help in the current war, but don't add to the chaos.
Murong Shan looked at the recent reconnaissance information from all sides at this time, and his brows furrowed slightly. There is no news of any Celestial Empire Legion yet.
The information sent by the Yujing Empire was all three months ago, and this is already the latest news.
The news was sent from the intelligence personnel of the Tianji Empire, received by the Yujing Empire, and then transferred to the Blue Star Group, and finally sent to Murong Mountain in a big arc, it would take three months!
Fortunately, Murong Shan still got a lot of useful news through these messages.
The legions of the Celestial Empire, flying to the constellation of the Celestial Society, must span at least 10,000 light-years, even according to the latest technology of the Celestial Empire, this journey will take six months.
And the intelligence of the Yujing Empire shows that Yao Tong, the southern commander of the Tianji Empire, went on a 'business trip' two months ago and never showed up again. That is, five months ago, the fleet of the Celestial Empire should have set off. Calculate the time, it's almost up.
At this time, the Tianyuan Star Civilization had fully taken over everything in the Celestial Constellation, but the construction of the Celestial Constellation was too rough, and the reconnaissance system was a little bad. After arriving at the Celestial Constellation, Murong Shan was busy with his feet not touching the ground.
The strategy of clearing the field is already underway. The two small clusters 1 and 2 of the Celestial Constellation have been completed, and the cleaning of the third cluster is underway.
Murong Shan was very sure that the fleet of the Heavenly Age Empire, which had come from afar, would inevitably need to replenish supplies. After a long flight, not to mention that some of the spacecraft need to be overhauled, even the soldiers need to relax and rest a little to adjust their mentality.
Therefore, it is necessary to clear the wilderness. There are a large number of people on the planet, and considering the problems of life security, Murong Shan's strategy of clearing the wilderness with strong walls is soft, and only destroys all ports, military bases, industrial bases, etc.
In addition, all the spirit stones that can be transferred away are transferred, and those that can be taken away are also taken away from the pills and medicinal materials. The only compensation for all is this: money!
To be honest, because the Xuanhuang Group has been relatively prosperous in business here in recent years, the banknotes of the Tianyuan Star Civilization, that is, the banknotes issued by the Dayang Group and Luzhou Bank, are still very marketable. The basic prices of various materials are also relatively transparent.
Now Murong Shan is almost buying at the usual price of 120 percent, and the whole process is very smooth -- the main thing is that there are 'masters' who have returned to the virtual realm, which one dares to blow up the thorn and try it! Although the Dayang Group is easy to talk and reasonable, it will definitely not accept trouble.
Even in this process, Murong Shan was even more ruthless, all the troublemakers were investigated, and those who had problems and doubts were immediately arrested...... Think for yourself.
This is a good opportunity to scratch the prick. When this place is completely integrated into the management of Dayang Group, it will definitely be 'clean'.
The fortified wall Qingye continued, but the fleet of the Xuanhuang Group, which was patrolled by the easternmost 'Tensha 1 Star Cluster', encountered a fleet from the more easterly during the patrol.
Not from the Celestial Empire, but ...... of the Western Vietnamese Empire!
An empire that has suddenly appeared, and it is not good!
