Chapter 458: Encounter 1
(Thanks to the book friends for their suggestions in the previous chapter.) Open up a road for Dayang Group alone. )
After about three and a half years of brewing, the Minghui Empire and the Tianshui Empire finally broke out into a decisive battle. With the emperor's order, the hundreds of millions of soldiers and hundreds of millions of warships that had been prepared by the Minghui Empire launched a general offensive war. There is no temptation, and the beginning is the pinnacle of the decisive battle!
For this war, the Minghui Empire has used the following lineup:
Overseer: Eldest Princess Huang Ying, the Emperor has begun to shape political resources for the eldest princess.
Commander: The Imperial Protector General, Jiang Nanshan.
In addition, Wang Chaoyang, the commander of the Southern Army of the Empire, Shen Pingyun, the commander of the Northern Army of the Empire, Huang Fei, the eldest son of Prince Rui, and Huang Jian, the eldest son of Prince An, are the four major generals.
This war will also be the key to the final struggle for the throne between the two cousins Huang Fei and Huang Jian. Although Huanglong performed well before, if the chain fell at a critical moment, it would be a different matter.
As for Prince Gong and his sons, they have long been cleaned up. This can't be blamed on the ruthlessness of the Emperor of the Minghui Empire, but the competition for power can't tolerate mercy. The emperor may be benevolent, but that is only for the people under his rule, not for political opponents!
As soon as the war began, the Minghui Empire threw all its might! There was no temptation at all. In other words, in the past three and a half years, everyone has already completed the temptation, and the war between those small countries is also part of the temptation.
As for the Tianshui Empire, it is naturally already prepared, especially since there are many 'reinforcements' from other countries on the side of the Tianshui Empire, everyone is ready to give the Minghui Empire a head-on blow, so that the Minghui Empire can 'calm down'.
As for the question of explaining that the death of Prince Gong on the side of the Hui Empire was counted on the head of the Tianshui Empire, the Tianshui Empire didn't say anything.
At this moment, the Tianshui Empire learned smartly, and the top leaders of the empire knew that they couldn't speak clearly now that they were covered with mouths. Because of the previous public opinion war, the majority of the people have lost trust in the Tianshui Empire.
The Minghui Empire learned the essence of the public opinion war of the Ocean Group, and in terms of public opinion and national reputation, it had a great negative impact on the Tianshui Empire.
So much so that now the Minghui Empire casually pours a basin of dirty water on the Tianshui Empire, and the Tianshui Empire can't argue with it.
The only thing the Emperor of the Tianshui Empire could do was to smash the cup. The power of public opinion warfare has been revealed, and the Tianshui Empire has realized it, but it is too late.
But it doesn't matter, the Tianshui Empire believes that in this world of cultivation, fists come first. As long as the Minghui Empire is brought down, all the troubles will be solved.
The Tianshui Empire, which had been preparing for a long time, immediately started the chariot. In the face of a decisive battle of such a scale, the Tianshui Empire enabled such a lineup:
Overseer: Prince Jiang Tian, in addition to the Overseer, has the right to make decisions on the fly, and is responsible for liaising with the rest of the Imperial reinforcements.
Commander-in-chief: Wan Shansong, the general of the Zhu Kingdom, actually commands the entire corps, and the rest of the imperial reinforcements will also indirectly obey Wan Songshan's arrangement - not an order, Wan Shansong also needs to use a consultative tone.
In addition: Duanmu Hong, the southern governor, Jiang Peiyu, the southern governor, the eastern marshal, Baishi, and the eastern governor Ding Haojie.
The 'governor' of the Tianshui Empire, who is mainly in charge of the outer star regions and nearby countries, can be regarded as a real feudal official, but the military power is in the hands of the four marshals. But in any case, the power of these governors was almost equal to that of the emperors of the middle countries.
This is a star-level war that can be called unparalleled. According to the statistics in front of the station, the elite army used by the Minghui Empire claimed to have more than 120 billion to the outside world, and 2.3 million in the virtual realm. More than 1 billion warships.
As for those outside the elite army, ten times more than the elite legion. The personnel and spacecraft in charge of logistics are also no longer in the minority.
An empire 900 light-years wide is fighting a war with all its might, and you can imagine the scale of the war. The total number of warships and spaceships actually mobilized is conservatively estimated to be more than 100 billion.
And on the side of the Tianshui Empire, because of the 'reinforcements', it is claimed that the number of elite troops exceeds 200 billion, the virtual realm exceeds 3.6 million, and the warships exceed 1.4 billion!
As for the number of corps sent by the vassal countries of both sides, it is even more.
It is no longer possible to describe this decisive battle with the 'battle of the country'. Because behind the decisive battle launched by the Minghui Empire, there are considerations of revenge, succession to the throne, and the majesty of the country, and the Blue Star Group is behind it.
As for the Tianshui Empire, it is more of a greed for the Minghui Empire, as well as the greed of the alliance countries for the Blue Star Group.
On the border between the Minghui Empire and the Tianshui Empire, within a territory more than a thousand light years long and wide, a crazy duel broke out between the two sides.
............
In a corner of the battlefield, near the Tianshui Empire's defense line, there was a 'weird fleet' composed of 2 billion warships, which was slowly floating.
These ships are very different from the usual warships, as they only have skeletons, which can be called the undead in the warship world.
Yes, this is the intelligent fleet led by the intelligent life 'Wei Long', which has split off from eternity.
However, in this intelligent fleet, it is not completely 'unmanned', and the Dayang Group has set up a 'tactical group' here, and the team leader is Li Shu, the highest-ranking female general of the Dayang Group.
Although there is only one well-known commander of the Dayang Group, there are not a few military personnel of the Dayang Group.
In fact, the Ocean Group has always been divided into two military systems within it. One is represented by Dugu Junjie, including Zhao Yuhang, Lu Mingyuan, etc., which were developed from the navy; because the navy and the space corps are somewhat similar, they have taken the lead in development.
In the follow-up war, it was basically Dugu Junjie's side that stood out.
There is also the army system represented by Murong Shan, including Tian Guiping, Liang Junming, Xu Yabing, Li Shu, etc. After entering the starry sky, the army system of the Ocean Group seemed to have disappeared. But that's just a façade. Zhang Hao has been cultivating them secretly.
Those officers of the 'Army Department' have actually been incognito and received war training on Dugu Junjie's side. And compared with Dugu Junjie's side, the military strategy of the army department is also different.
The military is nothing else, and the important weapon of the country cannot be revealed; I don't know how many arrangements the Dayang Group has secretly made, and how many outstanding officers the group has, but I am afraid that Zhang Hao himself has not counted. Too much!
Dugu Junjie and others believe in the effect of the cannon of the giant ship, and the characteristics of the navy determine that they pay more attention to the effect brought by the battleship itself.
However, Murong Shan and others are focusing on the idea of blitzkrieg. Although Dugu Junjie's side is also learning the tactical thinking of blitzkrieg, it is not as good as Murong Shan's.
Li Shu, the highest-ranking female general in the Ocean Group, is a loyal supporter of Blitzkrieg, not to mention, but also bold, careful, and astute. This time, Li Shu led his staff group and a few officers to come over and take command, and by the way, he learned.
Learning and experiencing such an interstellar decisive battle is crucial to the future development of the Ocean Group.
Also, Li Shu needs to take on the contact between the intelligent life Weilong and the outside world. When he came to the front line, Li Shu needed to accept the command of Jiang Nanshan, the commander of the Minghui Empire and the general who protected the country. However, he has full autonomy, but his actions and plans also need to be reported to Jiang Nanshan.
At this time, after receiving the order for war, Li Shu communicated with Weilong to determine the goal and marching strategy.
"Jiang Nanshan's goal for us is to try our best to interfere with the reinforcement camp of the Tianshui Empire. The reinforcement camp is mainly concentrated in the eastern part of the Curly Tongue Star Officer, a peripheral star cluster called the 'Curly Tongue Two Star Cluster'.
The two-star cluster, about 12 light-years in diameter, has a medium density of stars, and has a total of about 420 star systems. Of these, there are 102 inhabited galaxies and 37 living galaxies.
The garrisons are mainly distributed in these 37 systems. However, the dwellings are scattered, and it is difficult for us to rely on sneak attacks to inflict heavy damage on the enemy. Even rushing into here rashly will fall into an encirclement. ”
A staff officer next to him muttered: "General, Jiang Nanshan just asked us to interfere, not the main attack." ”
"Interference is not the main attack?" Li Shuliu's eyebrows suddenly stood up, like a blade, "In the military, there is no such thing as simple interference. There is only an offense! The so-called interference is also an offense!"
Staff officer:......
Li Shu did not let go of this 'little guy', "What is the point of interference if you don't defeat the enemy's living force! In an interstellar war, you must keep in mind that the so-called war, interference, and any tactics are all aimed at destroying the enemy's living force.
We are not here to fight soy sauce for our 2 billion warships! We represent the Dayang Group, and we want to show the prestige of belonging to the Dayang Group!"
After training the newcomers, Li Shu commanded domineeringly: "The depth of the two star clusters is too large, and a simple charge is not enough." And because the other party is scattered, it is not conducive to sneak attacks. We need to get the other side together and give them a lightning-deadly attack!"
The trained staff officer really deserved to be an excellent military personnel of the Ocean Group, and at this time he actually adjusted his mentality and gave a suggestion, "We have 2 billion warships on our side, and we can divide a small number of warships, ambush them on the way, and 'accidentally' leak their whereabouts."
I don't think it's too small, but it's not too much, and the data can't be neat. 38.63 million warships of different sizes can be arranged, disguised as a lacked, sneaky, but very ambitious mobile team behind enemy lines.
In the interstellar world, if you want to encircle and annihilate a fleet in a general war, it will be at least 20 times as much. These warships should be enough to mobilize most of the opponent's legions. And this amount is not enough to arouse the complete vigilance of the other party. ”
When Li Shu heard this, his eyes lit up. Too many warships will certainly not work, too few will not cause attention. If the number of warships happens to be an integer, it will arouse the vigilance of the other party.
There is also a characteristic of the number '8', which is not enough '9', and there is a feeling that I want to be elevated, but I can't do it. In terms of the number of fleets, it is easy for people to subconsciously have such thoughts: the other side can organize these warships, I am afraid that they have done their best, and there will be no more warships!
And all the battleships of different sizes seem to be a perfect interpretation.
As for the numbers in the back, they are embellished.
Later, another staff officer said, "We 'accidentally' leaked the location of our whereabouts, and it can't be the front of the battlefield, better the side, we have to make a big detour, so that the other side thinks that we are sneak attacking." ”
But half an hour later, the Weilong fleet made a move. 38,631,127 decoy warships of different sizes were separated, and they accelerated towards the southeast of the 'Tongue Cluster', while the remaining main fleet went straight to the preset ambush point. According to the plan, the main fleet will be scattered and hidden in the vast void, quietly waiting for the big fish to take the bait.
Standing behind the porthole, Li Shu looked at the vast starry sky, but he was wondering if there were still loopholes.
The starry sky is too vast. 2 billion warships sounds like a lot, but in the starry sky, it's not even a drop in the ocean. Even if two '0's are added to the back of 2 billion warships, it will not change.
In the vast starry sky, war is very different from the ground. First of all, you have to be able to find the enemy, and secondly, you have to defend your rear.
Because of the vast starry sky, it is a bit difficult to really find the enemy...... Well, it's difficult, so most of the war breaks out near the defense bases.
Of course, this 'nearby' in the starry sky usually refers to the range of 3 light years.
It's just that sometimes, plans don't change as quickly. Three days after the deportation of the decoy fleet, when it was about to arrive at the predetermined position, it was a coincidence that it met the enemy's fleet, which also wanted to carry out a sneak attack!
