Orion Arm, Star System Horton.
As an important military industrial town of the Oakes Empire, 30,000 warships are stationed here all year round.
Even though a series of bad news came from the front line, Yosel, as the commander of the Horton garrison, remained calm. After all, Horton's external Star Path was extremely narrow. Even if there were only 30,000 warships, he was confident that with this first Oakes Empire barrier, he could block the million-strong Kabart Empire army.
At this moment, 30,000 warships formed a C-shaped front around the exit of Star Path. Any warship emerging from Star Path will be attacked by a full 30,000 warships from a 180-degree range.
Coupled with the fact that the Star Path is so narrow that it can only pass 200 warships at the same time, you can imagine that 200 warships appear through the Star Path at the same time, 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, Reo defended Sicil Star Path 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.
Sicil's Star Path can pass through thousands of warships at the same time. In the early stage, the defenders of Reo still suffered a battle loss ratio of 1:9, which shows that the defenders have an advantage.
Yosel 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 Kabart Empire breaks through this line of defense!"
"Commander Yosel, we just received a message from the Fourth Imperial Guard Legion, commander Aisa. They expect to arrive in 17 days!"
"I don't know what Master Ross is thinking. As long as I send a few Star System defenders around and gather 100,000 battleships for me, I can definitely stop Kabart's millions of troops. Why do I need to let the guards Fourth Legion come over to assist in the defense! They should go to support the front line!"
Yosel looked unhappy. In the galaxies behind Horton, because they were relatively close to the imperial capital, they had many garrisons, 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 the Kabart army and prevent it from taking an inch forward.
And Fourth Imperial Guard Legion has 300,000 main battleships, but he doesn't go to the front line and comes to join in the fun. Isn't this a slap in the face?
In fact, Yosel completely misunderstood Ross. Although the Reo defenders reported that Kabart Empire only had a few hundred shield warships left, but who knows if there are others.
No one dares to take this risk. If Horton is lost, the empire will be destroyed!
So the safest way is to let the 30,000 defenders Fourth Legion and Yosel Horton together!
Just when Yosel was complaining with an unhappy expression, the combat readiness alarm in the battleship sounded!
Yosel 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 Path.
"What's going on? There are no enemies, so why did the alarm sound?"
"Commander Yosel, not Star Path, there is a problem in our rear!"
As soon as he heard that something happened in the rear, Yosel 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 Yosel, 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, that is the latest warship of mankind!"
"What, humans? Impossible, aren't humans trapped in Epsilon Eridani, and Rao has also gathered more than 100,000 warships, and has not received any news that it has been breached. Even if it is breached, it is impossible to reach us so quickly, right? It's only been a few years?"
"Commander Yosel, two human fleets suddenly appeared out of thin air on both sides of our side, each with 20,000 ships, and they have opened fire on us!"
The adjutant shouted Yosel eagerly!
But Yosel 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 Star Path exit. 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? No kidding!
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!
"Yosel Commander."
"What happened again?"
"The opponent. After scanning, the opponent is composed entirely of Battlecruiser level battleships."
"Boom"
Yosel was immediately confused. What did his adjutant say just now? Are all the opponent's 40,000 warships Battlecruiser level?
The number is more than myself! Occupying an absolutely dominant position! Are they all battleships? Can this battle still be fought?
"Yosel Commander."
"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 Shield, and our attacks were completely ineffective."
"Bang"
Yosel fell directly to the ground.
All battleships Energy Shield Quantity advantage Location advantage
At this moment, Yosel's mind was filled with these words, echoing over and over again.
"It's over!"
"Yosel Commander, what should we 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!"
"Yosel Commander!"
"Execute the order, and help me open the communication. I want to send the last communication to Mr. Ross!"
"Yes!"
Eight minutes later, despite the desperate efforts of Horton's defenders, they still could not escape the fate of being wiped out and could not even cause any damage to Federal Fleet.
This is the crushing of technology. If the Horton defenders have millions of warships, they can still fight it out. It is 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, and 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, Liang Xingchen and Lin Fan dispersed their fleets, and one squadron after another pounced on Resource Star and Life Planet respectively!
Three hours later, the entire galaxy was cleared of all resistance.
All planets and the shipbuilding base groups in space have been completely controlled.
